Zhang Wuniang began to cry, saying that last month she began to notice that several villagers came frequently to exchange supplies.
But she was not sure what went wrong with them, so she never reported it.
Xu Yue asked her: "So, do you think you are only at fault for neglecting your responsibilities?"
Zhang Wuniang nodded and swore that she had never tampered with the accounts on the copy, but only copied new accounts from the original copy before closing every day.
Seeing her unfazed look, Xu Yue believed her. She waved her hand, indicating that she could go sit down and have a rest before continuing next.
Zhang Wuniang didn't dare to sit down, but still knelt down. Jun Mei shouted displeased: "Are you going to disobey the third lady's words?"
Zhang Wuniang then glanced at Xu Yue with a complicated mood, then tremblingly climbed to the low stool beside her and sat down.
The remaining three stewards did not have the courage of Zhang Wuniang to self-destruct, and did not speak. They seemed to think that Xu Yue, a child, did not dare to really punish them.
The poor few people didn't know that the girl in front of them had even killed someone before.
What does punishment mean?
"Brother, let's take ten boards each first." Xu Yue said lightly.
"If the host doesn't answer the question, it's also disrespectful. According to the rules here, he will be beaten," she added.
Xu Yue, who seems to be full of new ideas, believes that everyone is equal and advocates tolerance, but she also knows clearly that the times have its limitations.
Therefore, seeking truth from facts and adapting measures to local conditions is the best solution.
Xu Dalang was a fan of Xu Yuedu, so he immediately waved his hand to the ten people under his command. The ten people got the order and pushed the eight people to the ground. Under the horrified eyes of several people, one of them hit ten people hard.
board.
Even if someone wanted to speak in the middle, Xu Yue just made a shut-up gesture, with her eyes open without any emotion, and calmly watched them finish the punishment before taking several people separately into the small dark room for interrogation.
Several people have been frightened by the indifferent expressions of the Xu Yue brothers and sisters. They don't feel that this kind of expression is very scary when it appears on the faces of adults, but once the target becomes a child who is supposed to be innocent and weak, it is particularly scary.
Horrible.
After seeing Xu Yue's power, several people said everything they needed to say in the small dark room, and Xu Yue got another list.
All of them are villagers who participated in tampering with the wooden chips.
Junmei counted them, her face turned red with anger, and she encouraged Xu Yue to murder the leading men!
Kill, kill?
When several people heard this, they opened their mouths and begged for mercy. Xu Dalang asked his men to quickly gag them and drag them to the backyard woodshed and lock them up first.
This is not Xu Dalang's style, but there is no way, misfortunes never come singly. Just when the brother and sister had just solved the problem of tampering with the wooden chips, four-year-old A Jian rode a little black horse skillfully and rushed over.
As he ran, he gestured on the road, which was the secret code taught by the Wang family and was used to convey secret messages.
Ever since Mrs. Wang took her with her, this little crybaby no longer cried. She often had a dull look on her face, imitating Mrs. Wang's serious look.
Xu Yue looked at his expressionless little face and felt very melancholy. She didn't know how her mother-in-law taught her apprentice. The four-year-old boy seemed to have an old-fashioned look.
Seeing that her brother was pretending not to say anything but just making gestures, Junmei went up and slapped her brother on the back of the head.
However, it didn’t work!
A Jian turned sideways neatly and avoided his sister's slap. He walked around her like a loach and came to Xu Dalang.
This time he stopped showing off his sign language and said, "Brother Xu Mo, there are bandits coming to our back mountain!"
After saying that, he raised his head and looked at Xu Dalang with wide eyes. There was a bit of weird excitement on his expressionless face.
Gu Jing
Xu Dalang raised his eyes and looked around: "Where is it?"
When A Jian's little finger pointed out the direction, Xu Dalang chuckled and immediately called on the ten fully armed troops, running towards the back mountain like wild horses!
"Brother--" Xu Yue's voice was choked by the dust raised by the horse's hooves.
When the dust cleared, she saw that Ajian was also about to ride on his little black horse and Xu Yue hurriedly pulled him back.
"What are you doing, you little brat? Just stay at home!"
A Jian, who could evade his sister, could not evade Xu Yue, a master, and was caught red-handed.
Xu Yue threw the brat who was about to scream and kill at such a young age into the courtyard. Once the door was closed, Junmei and her brother were left behind. They carried Ah Er and Ah San to the school with their knives.
Calmly the bell rang for all to assemble.
However, before Xu Yue could gather her people to prepare for the attack, a wail could be heard from the mountain behind.
From the sound of that noise, it didn't sound like it was coming from my brother and the others.
After a while, Xu Dalang was seen rushing down from the mountain on horseback with a man on his back, followed by ghosts and ghosts, as if they were a victorious group of ten.
Each of them was either carrying a person on his back or holding a stolen weapon - a hoe, sickle, club, mallet, etc. Compared with the sharp Tang Hengdao in the hands of Xu Dalang and others, it was simply a dimensionality-reducing blow.
Xu Erniang had already brought all the workers over because of the alarm bell, and the students also walked out of the classroom and gathered in the open space.
So, everyone stood in the open space and watched Xu Dalang and others quickly capture the invading bandits alive.
He didn't kill anyone, just because his mother-in-law had told her before she left that the family was short of manpower and not a single laborer could be spared.
There aren't many rogues here, so they should be the ones who come first.
Xu Dalang bundled the bandit explorers who had been brought back together, threw them in the open space, and began to interrogate them.
"What is the purpose? How many accomplices are there? Where is the territory?"
If he didn't say anything, he would kill him with one blow.
Xu Erniang seemed to have a lot of experience in this kind of thing. Seeing that these people were in ragged clothes and as thin as skin and bones, she brought a few bowls of yellow porridge and told them that if they confessed, they would have porridge.
This attack plan was much more effective than Xu Dalang's threat. Within half an hour, these people all confessed, just so they could eat the fragrant and hot bowl of yellow rice porridge.
In this way, the true identities of the three brothers and sisters were exposed for the first time in front of the villagers, which shocked the villagers who had always thought that the two young ladies in the family were gentle and lovely!
Especially after seeing Xu Yue skillfully holding a knife and preparing to fight, and Xu Erniang smiling evilly, when the bandits were attacked, she did not keep her promise to give them yellow rice porridge, but gave them a big kick,
The gentle and beautiful image in the hearts of villagers completely collapsed.
What kind of young master and lady is this? I'm afraid she's not a bandit!
The villagers were not left with much time to be surprised. The three brothers and sisters who were left to guard the house knew that there were bandits outside who were eyeing their village because of their mother's departure, so they made a decisive decision to strike preemptively.
Xu Dalang asked Xu Yue to stay in the village, and took Xu Erniang with him, as well as ten Buqu, plus Shitou and other more than 20 young men. Without any hesitation, he left Wubao overnight and went to kill the rogue den!
Xu Yueben was also prepared to ask her brother to wait until she went to Gongsun Yan to borrow some manpower.
But Xu Dalang waved his hand contemptuously and said with a smile: "I can kill these bandits alone. If there is no shortage of people at home, I will go there alone."
Xu Yue: So my brother brought these people to help escort the labor force?
Xu Dalang smiled tenderly at his sister, patted her little head and told her to wait at home to collect her, and then he happily killed her.
The several bandit pioneers who had been deceived so miserably by Xu Erniang couldn't help but smile proudly when they saw the Xujiazhuang people being so arrogant.
There are about 200 brothers in their mountains, and these 30 people in Xujiazhuang are definitely dead!
