Chapter 438 Officials Protect Each Other (Part 7)
That is to say, Xu Ziqing didn't admit it?
"He refused to accept the account, saying that he had never received anyone's grain. What else did he say, how could he, a man who had just become the village chief for a few days, have a way to exchange fine grains for the people in the village, and exchange two catties for one catty, He had never heard of such a cheap price, so it was impossible for him to boast about such an unrealistic thing.

This man who killed a thousand swords is trying to kill the people in the village!Those grains are life-saving grains for the villagers!He just walked away without making a sound, he, he lost his conscience! "

At the end, Grandma Wang's eyes were red.

Although the Wang family was not cheated, Grandma Wang lived in the village for most of her life, and knew every household in the village. Now that the people she knew were cheated of life-saving food, how could she feel better?

After hearing these conjectures with her own ears, Hongdou didn't know what to say.

Although she knew from the beginning that Xu Ziqing must be talking big, she guessed whether Xu Ziqing would raise the price in the end, asking for three catties and four catties for one catty.

But she never thought that Xu Ziqing would be so ruthless and have such a big appetite that he swallowed nearly a thousand catties of grain.

He is not afraid to support himself to death!
Is this a scam?
In such a period of time, if he cheated such a valuable thing as food, he would definitely be arrested if he was reported to the government, right?
At that time, he will spit out as much as he swallows, and he will also hand over the family's food!

Hongdou said what she wanted in her heart, and then looked at Grandma Wang expectantly.

In her opinion, the imperial court here is quite powerful, and such a thing must be done soon.

However, Grandma Wang's complexion did not improve at all, instead she sighed and shook her head.

"Someone from the village has already gone, and the officials from the county government have also come."

"And then?" Hongdou asked impatiently.

As soon as the words were asked, Hongdou understood a little.

The result is definitely not good.

Otherwise, Grandma Wang wouldn't have such an expression.

"The Yacha called the conscientious man out and questioned him, but he still refused to let go, saying that he had never seen any kind of food at all, and asked people to search his house. In the end, except for their family's relief food, Nothing was found. The Yacha said that since it was a matter of no trace, he didn’t care about it, and told everyone that if he said such a matter of no trace in the future, he would arrest everyone and send them to the county government prison for the New Year.”

People do not fight with officials!
The Yacha made it clear that he was on Xu Ziqing's side, but the villagers couldn't produce any evidence and couldn't find any food, so the matter was naturally let go.

"The conscientious person also expressed generosity, saying that he knows everyone's life is difficult, so he doesn't care about such things with everyone." Grandma Wang said through gritted teeth.

Hongdou almost laughed out of anger.

I didn't expect that in ancient times, I could still watch the drama of officials and officials protecting each other.

Although it is just a small village chief and a yamen servant, for the villagers in remote mountain villages, this is already a big official.

One is a dark cloud hanging over their heads, and the other is Hades who can throw them into prison at any time.

Wang Cuicui's family were all worried, even if such a thing hadn't happened to him, it would still make people feel extremely angry.

Hongdou didn't intend to be Bao Qingtian, but she felt uncomfortable seeing such a disgusting person jumping in front of her.
