Chapter 215 Public trial.

The head of the village listened to the narration of several people, and watched with a gloomy face. A few yamen servants at the real side said: "Arrest all these brothers of the Liu family, and beat gongs and drums to gather all the people in the nearby villages. Villagers, come here, I want to openly try the case in this village."

After listening to the words of the elder, the yamen servants hurriedly left Liu Dagang's house and started running around.

At this time, Walnut supported his grandmother and sat on a stool to rest. Hearing what the elder said, Walnut came to the elder in confusion, raised his small head, looked at him and asked, "My lord, What are you going to do? How do you plan to punish the brothers of the Liu family? Bring justice to my aunt?"

Listening to Walnut's question, Master Lichang lowered his head and looked at him. His cold face became kind, looked at her, and said with a smile: "Girl, although you look young, But you have a heart of kindness and justice. If you can take revenge like this, your dead aunt and grandma, don’t worry. I will wait for you and your grandma to have a fair result. At the same time, I will also use the Liu family brothers Regarding this matter, educate the neighbors here and let them know that filial piety is the first thing to do."

Walnut listened to the words of the elder, and watched her raise her head. God, she smiled on her small face, nodded in agreement, and said to the elder, "You really deserve to be the elder." , Your approach is really good, so that you can warn those who are not filial to the elderly, and let them know that if you are not filial to the elderly, you will go to jail."

Time passed little by little, and just as night was about to fall, the yamen servants who had gone out hurriedly rushed back to Liu Dagang's house to gather together, and finished all the things ordered by the head of the village.

During this night, he grew up and stayed at Li Zheng's house in this village, learning a lot about the local customs.

The next day, when the sky was just getting brighter, when you grew up, you hurriedly got up from the bed and came to Liu Dafang's house.

Besides, Walnut and grandma didn't go back to their home last night, but stayed at grandma's younger brother's house.

At dawn, he, his grandma and grandpa got up early and came to Liu Dagang's house together.

The yamen servants who had been watching at Liu Dagang's house all night saw that the head of the village had come, and they went out to get busy one after another, and started to call from village to village, notifying them.Let them come to the village where Liu Dagang lives for a meeting.

At noon, the left and right neighbors in this village, people from all over the world gathered here one after another.

Even in the village where Walnut lived, more than half of the villagers came. The village head saw that people came here in an endless stream, and thought it was about the same time, so he asked the yamen servants to escort the four brothers of the Liu family and stand On the street, the trial began.

All the villagers gathered here saw the head of the village sitting in front of a table, and the four brothers of the Liu family standing on the street under escort, facing the villagers, all of them bowed their heads with shame on their faces. .

Listening to this matter, the head of the village took the broken gong that the village was handing over, knocked it twice, and then said to the villagers: "Everyone be quiet, let me tell you a few words."

The sound of the gong sounded, and the voice of the village chief fell silent. All the villagers at the scene fell silent, and only heard the village chief say: "Fathers and fellow villagers, I am the village chief of this town. Why do you know me so well? I came here today because someone reported that the four brothers of the Liu family abused my mother, causing her to freeze to death outside the door. That’s why I came here to investigate this case. , to witness what kind of punishment should be accepted for not being filial to the elderly."

As soon as the words fell, Mr. Li Chang sat in front of the table, knocked the broken gong heavily, looked at Liu Dagang and said, "Although this is not a yamen, this is a temporary court I set up. Today I will publicly try your brothers here. , Liu Dagang, are you convinced?"

Hearing what Master Lichang said, Liu Dagang lowered his head, looked at him bitterly and said: "My lord, I admit that I was wrong, but I don't admit that I am not filial. I am just negligent. I have not committed any crimes." , and please forgive me, my lord."

As soon as Liu Dagang's voice fell, several of his brothers also said to Master Lichang: "Master Brigadier, this matter really has nothing to do with us. Logically speaking, my elder brother should be blamed for my mother's affairs." Regarding Liu Gang, we have always fulfilled our obligation to support him, so this time we feel that we have been wronged, and please ask your lord to look into it."

As soon as the words of their brothers fell, the head of the village snorted coldly, looked at them and said, you are ashamed to say this, your mother has worked hard alone to raise your four brothers, and give you You got married and started a business, but you turned your old mother out and froze to death alive. Is this what you said, fulfilling the obligation to support?Human nature is good at the beginning, your old lady raised four of you alone, and you four can’t raise one old lady, don’t you feel blush when you say these words now?Your mothers have already froze to death because of your disobedience, but you beasts have no regrets at all, and your mothers raised wolves, so why don’t I punish you severely in front of all the villagers today? Then I think, God will not tolerate it.

The voice fell, and I looked at the yamen servant behind me, only to hear the elder say: "The four brothers of the Liu family abused my mother, took over her property, drove her out of the house, and refused to let other sisters raise her, and my mother froze to death outside the door." , The head of the village is now announcing that Liu Dagang will be sentenced to five years in prison, fined, and two bags of wheat, and if the fine is not paid, an additional year in prison will be imposed.”

After Mr. Li Chang's words fell, Boss Liu's wife and children knelt on the ground and began to cry, only to hear Boss Liu's wife say: "Mr. Li Chang, please, please hold your hand high. If you let us Jia Dagang, if we go to jail, our family will be broken up."

Listening to his words, the people around also started talking about it. Many people thought that the punishment of the village chief was right, but there were also a small number of villagers who were not filial to the elderly, and began to murmur in their hearts. Get scared.

At this time, when he heard the crying of Mrs. Liu's daughter-in-law, the head of the village looked at her and said coldly: "I have forgiven you by not punishing you as a woman. You are still crying here. Your own mother is Mother, isn’t your mother-in-law your mother? You can pamper your family, go to build a cow pen for your mother, but lock your mother-in-law out of the door, a woman like you is as poisonous as a snake.”
