Chapter 57
After quieting down, the voices from the next door became clearer, the sound of splitting wood, pouring the water from the bucket into the water tank became clearer, and the conversations of the people next door also sounded:

Osmanthus fragrans: "Father, how many refugees do you think there are? So many? Impossible? I haven't seen such a sad life this year!"

Li Hen: "Yes, can I lie to you! People are sitting on the lawn, and I think they wear pretty good clothes! They are made of fine cotton! But they don't have to be refugees. How can refugees wear such good clothes? ? The accent doesn’t look like ours, and there are people cooking by the spring water! I saw it was white rice! Not poor!”

Old Fang: "Ah Hen, don't be so blind, what if you are a nobleman! Hurry up and fetch a load of water! Osmanthus, cook when you need to cook! Don't worry too much!"

Here, old man Mo, Mo Haisheng and Liu Shi all fell into silence.The girl (granddaughter) dreamed about this first, and it meant that the heavens looked at them poorly and gave them a warning, and they must cheer up.

Liu's hands trembled a little, and she quickly realized that the few big fish at home could not be kept.Just do it directly.Keep it as a handle.They didn't go out of the village. There was only a small stream in the village. Where there were big fish, it couldn't be justified!
Mrs. Liu hurriedly whispered: "Well, I'll cook all the fish, and we'll finish eating. Also, if the village chief's wife continues to make trouble tomorrow morning, we'll give them all the money and food."

When old man Mo got excited, he also said: "Okay, what we have to do at home is pitiful enough. We don't keep any valuables. The fish bones we eat are also burned."

What old man Mo didn't say was that if something happened and the village chief's family directly identified them, he would confess to the village chief, saying that he bought their houses and fields at a low price in Yurou Township and blackmailed them for their life-saving money.There is evidence for all of this. Mo Haisheng is literate, and he sells land and houses with a contract. Blackmailing life-saving money is also easy to verify. Find a good doctor and find out.

Both the village head and the village head's wife are busy and bad-hearted, and there are quite a few people who have complaints about the village head's family. Maybe there will be someone to help them at that time.After all, they all have evidence.

Arresting someone as a scapegoat is not arresting. If the county magistrate wants to achieve results, of course he will arrest the village chief. He will have an explanation for the dead and eliminate harm for the people, gaining both fame and fortune.

If someone who is actually guilty is arrested, even if he is wrongly arrested, when the time comes to investigate, are these charges true or false, and officials such as county magistrates will be less guilty.

There is no choice of scapegoat, and the investigators naturally choose the person recommended by everyone as the scapegoat.Someone can choose, and it depends on how the investigators choose.In short, someone pushed them into the water, and they pushed others into the water.Can't just be passively beaten?How it turns out depends on fate.

If you choose a scapegoat, the villagers are all victims, and it is best to find the real culprit.Anyway, plan for the worst.

Old man Mo whispered directly to Mo Haisheng: "Let's deal with it first, we will go around from the west mountain in a while, since we entrusted Mo'er with a dream, we can't do nothing, it will damage our Mo'er's fate. We Mo'er are blessed. If there is an opportunity, we must let her study."

What old man Mo didn't say is that if it's really not possible, I will come out and take the blame. You should raise Mo'er well.

Just like that, old man Mo and Mo Haisheng each drank a bowl of gruel, and they rushed to Xishan secretly.
