Sweet and warm little peasant woman

Chapter 9
Tong Xiaowu didn't back down either. Ever since she knew about Feng Yuchen's situation, she knew that these strange creatures were difficult to deal with, but being difficult to deal with didn't mean she couldn't deal with them:
"It's okay to pay filial piety, as long as the family is re-divided. The eldest brother and the second brother both have houses. Even the fourth brother has inherited the old yard. Our shabby house was given to us by Li Zhang on credit. If it wasn't for Chief Zhao, we still don't know if we can live till now?
There are also paddy fields, as much as the eldest brother and second brother can give us, we don’t want more, and there are kitchen utensils at home, farming seed equipment... as long as they have it, we must also have it..."

Tong Xiaowu talked more and more vigorously, didn't she settle accounts with her?Then she will do the math.

"We don't eat every meal now. When Feng Yuchen was in good health, he gave you all the money he earned from hunting and farming for a year, but you didn't pay him a penny for marrying his wife.

The five taels of silver he gave my father was also borrowed. The pots in my house were all broken, not to mention anything else. Grain, oil, salt, and vegetables have all been searched and gone. Now who do you want to give food to? "

"You're talking nonsense..." Mrs. Feng didn't want to get a reputation as a thief, so she quickly denied it.

"I used to be in poor health. I was always sleepy. I couldn't get up even if I wanted to, and I couldn't scream if I wanted to. That day you came to my house to steal things while Yuchen was not at home. I saw it all."

Tong Xiaowu pretended to shed a few tears, and gasped angrily, "Now you are asking us for filial piety in order not to pay back the things you stole from my house, in order not to pay for the two fishes, are you justified? Filial piety, Xiao Jing, have you done something admirable?"

Feng Yuchen walked to Tong Xiaowu's side on crutches, and reached out to caress her trembling shoulders. Her current appearance made him very uncomfortable.

All the people in the village were silent. Everyone always thought that she stayed in bed all day because of laziness. Now it seems that she didn't get up because she was unwell. No wonder she fell asleep that day. It turned out that she was not in good health ah!

Tong Xiaowu was in such a happy mood after successfully cleansing, she pretended to sniff:
"The food in our family is given by Mrs. Fulin these days. I am very grateful to those who have helped me, but my great mother-in-law, what have you given us? It's fine if you don't give it. Are you going to force us both to death? No way."

"Who forced you to death?" Mrs. Feng shrank her neck, and now there was only one voice in her mind, that is, no matter what, the family could not be re-divided.

Feng Siqing and Ma Youlian on the other side also looked at the village chief worriedly. If the village chief and the villagers forced them to re-segregate their families, things would be serious.

Although the old lady can refuse, it will be difficult to move around in the village in the future. After all, everyone still needs to communicate with each other. Let’s take the matter of spring planting as an example. The cattle in the village chief’s family are very useful. .

There are also the donkeys and iron plows of Liu Er's family. If the reputation is not good, these things cannot be borrowed.

"If you don't force us to death, what are you doing with your human teeth? Did Yuchen ever say you would sell me? Why are you robbing people? Also, why did you steal from my house, those two fish, and my body? Injury, my body is just a little bit better, and you came to persecute us, what are you trying to do? I didn’t want to talk about such embarrassing things, but how did you treat us..."

After Tong Xiaowu finished speaking, she turned around and lay on Feng Yuchen's shoulder, pretending to cry.

"What did I do to you? How did I do to you... I... No matter what, my old lady just won't pay today. I'm your elder, so I won't pay if I don't accompany you!"

Mrs. Feng crossed her waist, looking like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. She still can't believe that someone can make her spit out what she eats.

She, Mrs. Feng, has lived for so long, and no one has been able to get money out of her fingers. If she doesn't want to give it to anyone, don't try to force her.

Zhao Lichang looked serious, and looked at Mrs. Feng's family coldly:

"If you take someone else's money, return it to them. Don't say you are his mother. Even if you are not, you live in the same village, and everyone helps each other when you are in trouble. What's the matter if you don't help them and take advantage of the fire?"

"It's not right for you to say that, chief. Do you believe her spitting? I never took anything from their house." Mrs. Feng refused to admit it.

"Didn't you admit it just now? You said that as an elder, you just won't pay." A villager shouted.

"That's right. If you didn't take it, you should say you didn't take it. How can you say that you won't pay it? Are you too shameless?"

Seeing that she was going to lose money, Ma Youlian was unwilling: "My mother didn't admit it, so don't talk nonsense."

"Hey!" An old man in the village sighed. "Sure enough, the Feng family has lost old man Feng. There is no one who is polite, and has no humanity at all."

"It's just..."

The head of the village also noticed that the old lady Feng's family didn't need to be a little bit more powerful because they were not going to lose money.

He turned around and glanced at Ren Yazi, and said again: "Yuchen, Mrs. Feng is an elder after all, if you don't pay for things like eating and getting something, then you won't be compensated!"

The old lady Feng was overjoyed when she heard this, and Feng Siqing and Ma Youlian on the side also nodded happily.

Tong Xiaowu turned around, feeling a little depressed, she also knew that it would be even more difficult for the Feng family to pay them compensation today, but she didn't expect that the head of the village was also on their side.

"But..." Li Chang Zhao turned his head and looked at Tong Xiaowu who was on the side: "Yuchen's family, is this a matter of robbing civilian girls and abducting people? Are you going to sue?"

The so-called people don't investigate officials and don't ask, now the decision is in Tong Xiaowu's hands.

Tong Xiaowu immediately understood that Li Chang Zhao wanted to show them off.

"Of course I have to sue, otherwise what will they do if they harm someone else's girl in the future? I ask the chief to help me decide." Tong Xiaowu's eyes lit up, and he took a few steps forward.

"Okay! Liu Er, Shuanzi has caught that man's tooth, let's turn it over to the county seat, and set off now. As for Mrs. Feng's family, who are suspected of assisting in committing the crime, they will be taken away..."

The head of the village waved his hand and walked out of the courtyard.

Mrs. Feng's family was dumbfounded all of a sudden, or have they been to court?Feng Siqing, who had been hit by the board, was the first to react, and stepped forward to grab Zhao Lichang:
"The head of the village, no, no, no, we are not human traffickers, we really have not trafficked people, this is all voluntary by them."

"Feng Yuchen, do you want to sell your daughter-in-law?" the village head asked without looking back.

"No!" Feng Yuchen replied coldly.

"From Yuchen's family, were you sold voluntarily?"

"No, they forced me." Tong Xiaowu followed up: "If I don't obey, they will rob me."
