Chapter 42 Something Happened

Who else is coming now?
The voice didn't sound like a familiar person.

"I gonna go see!"

Jiang Decai stood up and was about to go to the door to see who it was, but Jiang Defu said directly.

After all, he called me by his name, so he should have trouble with me.

"Brother Defu, something happened in the village!"

As soon as Jiang Defu opened the door, he saw Liu Mulin wearing a coat and holding a dry pipe in his hand.

He said excitedly as soon as he saw Jiang Defu.

"What happened?"

Jiang Defu asked habitually.

But then he felt that this matter was a bit strange. What did the incident in the village have to do with him? He was just a commoner, and his family was at home, so nothing happened. Shouldn't the incident in the village be something that the village chief Liu Mulin should take care of?

He can just deal with anything. Tell yourself what's going on?

Also, according to seniority, he should call Liu Mulin uncle, and he calls him brother. This title...

"Brother Defu, the fourth wife of the Li family jumped into the well!"

Liu Mulin looked a little panicked and tried to pull Jiang Defu away.

"Uncle Mulin, this matter...this matter I..."

Jiang Defu wanted to say that he had nothing to do with this matter, but after all, it was a human life, so he still followed people towards the center of the village out of habit.

Later, Jiang Decai, Jiang Dehua and Zhang Guilan also heard the news and followed them out.

Zhang Guilan was quick and locked the door when she went out.

As soon as they arrived at the north side of the center of the village, they heard loud noises and crying.

"Oh! It's so pitiful that such a young man is gone!"

"No, there are three children at home! This adult is unfamiliar to me, what should I do with these children?"

"Their family members are the same. Li Laosi and his wife are the only ones who are more loyal and honest, and yet something like this happened..."

"Before, they always bullied other people in the village. After that boy from the Jiang family took care of them, they started fighting among themselves. Hey! Whoever wants to be born into their family is really unlucky!"

"You don't know if you live far away. Their family has always been like this. Whoever is weak will be bullied. When the family was separated before, a bunch of people were running against the fourth family. You don't know that the homes that the fourth family was divided into were really shabby. , not to mention the land allocated to their family..."

"The second brother Li is really not a thing. I heard that he suffered a loss in the fight with that kid from the Jiang family that day. He felt ashamed and said it was because the fourth brother didn't try his best during the fight. When he returned, he even beat the fourth brother because the fourth daughter-in-law started the fight. He was beaten too!”

"Aren't they injured? How can they still hit people?"

"You still don't know that Li Lao Er picks up soft persimmons and pinches them. He can't get up and just throws things at Li Lao Si. Hey! Lao Si is too honest!"

"Why did this fourth daughter-in-law jump into the well?"

"Lao Si and his wife planted some trees in the ancestral graves. The food at home was not enough, so they thought of cutting down the trees and selling them in exchange for some food. As a result, Lao Er and Lao Wu thought that the trees grew in the ancestral graves, and they also had a share. , they insisted on getting a share of the pie, but the fourth wife didn’t want to, so she was beaten by them!

The fourth child was honest and didn't dare to fight back. The fourth wife jumped into the well in anger! "

……

"what……"

A hysterical roar startled Jiang Defu.

Li Laosi hugged his wife and let out a howl. His wife was obviously dead.Jiang Defu looked at it and sighed.

"What do you think we should do about this matter? This Li family..."

Liu Mulin also sighed.

"What is the attitude of the Li family?"

Jiang Defu didn't want to get involved with this matter, but seeing the somewhat collapsed Li Laosi and the poor children standing there at a loss, he couldn't help but ask.

Liu Mulin should have taken care of this matter, but this man seemed to be a little afraid of the Li family's affairs, and he was dragging himself into it.

Jiang Defu didn't like Liu Mulin very much. He was a little too slick, but he couldn't be said to be too annoying. After all, he was just a small village chief, and he mostly only considered his own self-preservation.

Everyone has their own way of doing things in this world.

"Hey! The Li brothers didn't show up. Li Lao Er didn't even show his head. Li Lao Wu beat his sister-in-law and forced her to die. His mother-in-law just scolded her for jumping into her own well. I damaged the well water, and I want the Li family to pay compensation..."

Liu Mulin still sympathized with Li Laosi's family, and there was still a slight element of justice in his heart.

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!
After all, the Li family still has a bad family tradition. They are poor but have a large number of people, and the family's resources are only a few. Li Lao Er takes the lead in forming gangs, so the brothers naturally eat the weak.

There was a conflict with the Li family that day. Jiang Defu had already seen it. Li Laosi was an honest person and didn't want to participate. However, he was pushed and encouraged by several brothers. He just slapped his claws a few times and did not do anything. Really start.

Therefore, when he attacked those brothers, Jiang Defu only kicked Li Laosi over and was not too harsh on him.

As for Li Laosi's wife, when she went to work in the field, she would smile awkwardly when she saw them, but she was a little timid when she wanted to say hello, so she was an honest person.

It's just that such an honest person lost his life. It's true that good people don't live long and cause harm for 1000 years...

Jiang Defu habitually wanted to call the police. After all, Li Laosi's wife also jumped into the well after being bullied. Those who originally bullied her must bear responsibility.

Just thinking about the situation in this day and age, and the fact that the mountains and villages are high and the emperor is far away, this kind of thing is reported to the police, and that's probably the case.

In Jiang Defu's previous life, he often listened to his grandfather talk about things in the countryside when they were young.

Fights between villagers are often resolved on their own, just like fighting in a ring. This is why many people in rural areas and remote mountainous areas insist on having more sons, so that they will not suffer losses in fights and avoid being bullied.

The people below have no intention of filing a complaint, not to mention that Li Si's wife jumped into the well on her own. If there is an investigation, no one will come to testify.

The most important thing is Li Si's attitude. If he doesn't want to make the decision for his wife, it's useless what others say.

"The person is gone. Let's ask someone to help us bring him back to discuss how to bury him. Otherwise, what else can be done..."

Jiang Defu sighed and said.

"That's what you said!"

Liu Mulin's nervousness relaxed now.

This matter with the Li family was really difficult, and he was really worried that something big had happened.

Liu Mulin quickly called for help to carry Mr. Li's fourth daughter-in-law, Ms. Liu, home to discuss follow-up matters.

Li Laosi followed behind blankly, while his three children seemed not to realize that their mother was gone. They followed the crowd and ran around like outsiders watching the excitement.

"Hey! It's so pitiful. How is Li Laosi going to live as a grown man with three children?"

Zhang Guilan sighed.

"Why are you bringing a child with you? Look at how stupid Li Laosi is. Nothing will happen to him, right?"

Jiang Dehua said to Zhang Guilan.

She really made her words come true!
