The wife of a peasant girl is a little sweet

Chapter 67 Expulsion from the Village

Li Cuilan rolled her eyes, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Mayor, I have been wronged, please make the decision for me."

"Injustice? Where is the injustice?" The mayor asked, frowning.

"Mayor, I didn't tie them up, and I didn't pour water on them. They accidentally fell into the river by themselves. I saw they were rescued, and I took them home to find them clean clothes to change into." Yes, but before I could change their clothes, this Su Wan broke in, beat and scolded me, no matter what I said, she didn't listen, and tied me here directly." Li Cuilan Said with an aggrieved face.

"Oh? Seriously?" the mayor asked with a frown.

"It's absolutely true, this Su Wan has some grudges with me, so she entangled in this matter, and wanted to kill me, please be clear to the mayor." After finishing speaking, Li Cuilan continued to kowtow.

Su Wan stood behind and listened, feeling a bit dumbfounded for a moment, a shameless and invincible person, this Li Cuilan really played to the extreme.

"This..." the mayor seemed a little embarrassed: "Now you all insist on your own opinions, who should I listen to?"

"Mayor, no matter what, children won't lie, and we were there at the time, and we did see that these two children were tied with ropes." Before Su Wan could speak, the village chief Liu Dazhu said .

"That's right, mayor, my Qianqian and Xiaozhe won't lie. I untied the ropes on their bodies with my own hands." Mrs. Qin glared at Li Cuilan angrily, and said.

"You are the child's mother, so you are naturally talking to the child, so your testimony cannot be regarded as testimony, so avoid suspicion." The mayor said with a glance at Qin.

"What? But..." Qin became anxious when she heard it. It was because the mayor didn't believe what she said. She was about to say something, but was stopped by Su Wan.

"Mother, don't worry, let me tell you." Su Wan patted Qin's hand, then looked at Li Cuilan with a sneer.

"Li Cuilan, I just want to ask you one question, as long as you can give me a reasonable explanation, I will believe your words, how about it?"

"What? You just ask." Li Cuilan looked at Su Wan with a smug expression.

Listening to what the mayor said just now, it means that what Qin said doesn't count. Doesn't that mean that she doesn't believe her words?Anyway, there is no evidence, I just don't admit it, what else can you do to me?

"Are our two neighbors?" Su Wan asked quietly.

"That's right, they help each other just because they are neighbors." Li Cuilan nodded and said.

"Is there only one wall between our two families, and the distance between the two gates cannot be more than ten steps?" Su Wan continued to ask.

"That's right, do you still need to ask? What does this have to do with today's incident?" Li Cuilan asked with a strange expression on her face.

Su Wan smiled coldly and did not answer, but turned to look at the mayor and asked, "Master mayor, now you should be able to tell who is telling the truth and who is telling the truth, right?"

The mayor frowned, looking pensive.

"Su Wan, what do you mean?" Li Cuilan looked back and forth between Su Wan and the mayor with a puzzled expression.

"Bold Li Cuilan, dare to lie in front of the mayor, come here, give me a slap!" The mayor suddenly slapped the table and shouted loudly.

"Mayor, I didn't, I was wronged." Li Cuilan's heart shook, and she kowtowed again.

"Wronged?" The mayor sneered coldly: "Since your two families are so close, why didn't you save the two children and send them home directly? Instead, you brought them to your house? They have children ready-made." You still need to go to your own house to find the clothes?"

"I, I..." Li Cuilan's complexion changed, and she stammered, "I'm afraid that there is no one in his house. After all, they are building a new house, and they are very busy every day."

"Li Cuilan, is it interesting for you to continue to quibble? Who doesn't know that my house is contracted out, and I don't need to take care of it at all. Moreover, it was still lunch time, and there were people in every household. Even if I took ten thousand steps back, my father was paralyzed in bed. , but can’t go anywhere.” Su Wan said with a sneer.

"I, I..." Li Cuilan couldn't refute, and finally collapsed on the ground, patted her thighs with both hands and started howling: "Oh, what kind of world is this? The law is alive..."

"Enough!" The mayor suddenly slapped the table, and shouted sharply: "Why are you howling? Don't mess with the shrew in front of me. Come on, slap your mouth!"

Li Cuilan fell silent in fright, two servants from the mayor's family walked over, one held Li Cuilan down, and the other began to slap her mouth.

Li Cuilan begged for mercy one after another at the beginning, but in the end she couldn't say anything when she was beaten, and only howled one after another.

"Okay!" The mayor raised his hand and stopped the two servants.

Li Cuilan's face was swollen, blood was dripping from the corner of her mouth, and she looked horrible.

"Li Cuilan, you abused your child. It is an unforgivable crime. It is the first time you committed a crime and did not cause any serious harm to the child. I will sentence you to pay the Su family five taels of silver. If there is another time, you will not be forgiven lightly!" the mayor said. With a gloomy face, he said his solution.

According to Daliang's law, there is nothing wrong with his sentence. After all, before Li Cuilan could abuse Su Qian and Su Zhe, she was slapped and fined.

However, Su Wan doesn't think so. First of all, it's not certain whether she can afford five taels of silver. Even if she can, she will really pay them back, but can she really be convinced in her heart?She still doesn't see her when she looks up every day, and Qianqian and Xiaozhe are so small, what if she catches her again?
It is impossible for her to be so lucky every time to find out in time.

So, Su Wan said, "Mayor, I don't want her money."

Li Cuilan was worrying, her heart was hurting, her heart was hurting, five taels of silver was like killing her.

When Su Wan said that she didn't want her money at first, she felt relieved and wanted to smile, but she didn't laugh in the end, because Su Wan's request was even more unacceptable to her.

Su Wan said: "Mayor, I don't want her money, I just ask her not to return to Hexi Village to live."

"Why? Why don't you allow me to go back to the village?" Li Cuilan became anxious when she heard this, pointing at Su Wan and asked.

Su Wan turned to look at her, and said with a faint smile, "Daliang Law, anyone who causes harm or threats to the lives and property of the villagers in this village will be expelled from the village. If they dare to return to the village privately, everyone will be punished upon seeing them!"

After Li Cuilan heard this, her face turned pale, and she said with trembling lips, "You are talking nonsense, there is no such thing in Daliang's law, you are lying!"

"Is it nonsense, just ask the mayor." Su Wan said with a sneer.

"Mayor?" Li Cuilan turned to look at the mayor, and said expectantly: "Mayor, is she talking nonsense, right? There is no such thing in the law, right?"

The mayor frowned, and said indifferently: "There is indeed such a thing in the Daliang law."

Li Cuilan immediately went limp and her face was ashen.

　It's late today, okay?
