Xing Rui got up for a run and found that Sister-in-law Zhang was missing.
Seeing that the basket in the yard was also missing, she guessed that Sister-in-law Zhang had gone up the back mountain to pick vegetables for the chickens, ducks and geese.
He is his patient, and he is going to be discharged from the hospital and go home. Naturally, Xing Rui is embarrassed to let him do the work for him.
Then I hurriedly caught up, but as soon as I reached the back mountain, I heard a series of strange sounds coming from the wormwood.
He ran over quickly and shouted,
"Sister-in-law Zhang, is that you?"
Sister-in-law Zhang, who had just stepped on the man to the ground, heard the voice and hurriedly replied,
"It's me, sister Xing Rui, right?"
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
I clearly heard a man shouting for help just now. At this time, Sister-in-law Zhang looked strange with her waist inserted. Xing Rui walked over while asking.
"I caught a bad boy and dared to do something to my mother, without even looking at whether my little body can withstand a beating, ha..."
Sister-in-law Zhang usually has a manly personality, but now she stepped on the man under her feet and couldn't help but let out a burst of proud laughter.
"bad boy?"
Xing Rui Guyi walked over and was about to lean down to see clearly who was being stepped on by Sister-in-law Zhang, when the man lying on the ground started howling impatiently.
"Silly girl, stupid girl, it's me, help, help..."
Xing Rui was also a little surprised when she heard that she was called a silly girl. She hurriedly knelt down and picked up the man's head. When she saw it, she almost laughed.
"Niu Xidong? Why is it you?"
"Silly girl, save me, save me..."
Xing Rui, a lazy man and bachelor in Niuxidong Village, was extremely ridiculous when he saw a grown man being trampled under the feet of a woman.
"This kid actually wanted to do something to me while I wasn't paying attention, you bastard."
As she spoke, Sister-in-law Zhang couldn't help but step down hard, and soon Niu Xidong let out a scream.
"Ah ah ah, it hurts... Silly girl, help me, stupid girl, help me..."
"Niu Xidong,"
Xing Rui squatted down, looked at him with very mocking eyes and asked,
"I didn't expect you to have such bad intentions. You do such a thing, and you want me to save you. How can I save you? I think it's better to ask Sister-in-law Zhang to send you to Li Zheng.
Let Li Zheng decide whether people like you should continue to stay in our ‘Dahe Village’ and harm others.”
"Ah, no, no, silly bitch, no! I, I, I have something to tell Li Zheng, can't I make atonement for my sins?"
Um?
Xing Rui raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but look at the bulging cloth bag on the ground in the distance.
"Niu Xidong, tell me, what is that bulging thing in your cloth bag?"
"No, nothing, nothing..."
The more nervous Niu Xidong stuttered, the more Xing Rui thought it was okay. He stood up and strode over.
He picked up the cloth bag from the ground and touched it with his hands. There were quite a lot of things in it and it wasn't very heavy.
Xing Rui swept Niu Xidong, who was still being stepped on the ground by Sister-in-law Zhang, and slowly untied the rope on the cloth bag.
He reached in and the first thing he took out was a piece of clothing, a 50% new coarse cloth jacket with the same pair of trousers underneath.
After reaching out to grab it, he took out another cloth bag. Without opening it, just by touching it, Xing Rui knew that it contained corn crumbs.
Touching further down, there was another cloth bag. When I touched it through the cloth bag, I found that there were millet seeds inside.
When you touch it, there are some bits and pieces underneath.
Broken shoe mats, a silver spoon for eating, and a copper bowl. You can tell without asking that these things were stolen by Niu Xidong.
"Niu Xidong, tell me, where did you steal these things from?"
"I, I, I..."
Niu Xidong and I didn't say anything for a long time. Sister-in-law Zhang stepped on his back hard.
"If you don't tell the truth, I won't be as good as you."
"Ah, it hurts..."
Niu Xidong screamed repeatedly and shouted,
"It's not something from our village, I stole it from 'Xiaogang Village'."
Ah……
Xing Rui smiled coldly, put everything in again, and picked it up with her backhand.
"Sister-in-law Zhang, bring this kid over here. All the stolen goods are here. Go directly to see Li Zheng and see how Li Zheng deals with him."
"Ouch..."
Sister-in-law Zhang lifted her foot. As soon as the foot left, Niu Xidong let out a loud cry of relief.
"Why are you shouting? You are a bad boy. You should be sent to jail and have a good meal for a few years. Then you will be honest.
Go quickly, don’t dawdle, go quickly..."
Sister-in-law Zhang held Niu Xidong by the collar. Seeing that he was walking slowly, she kicked him in the back.
"Silly silly silly girl..."
Niu Xidong came to Xing Rui with his head lowered and begged for mercy,
"Well, I, I, I have something to say, can you not send me to Li Zheng?"
Seeing Xing Rui staring at him coldly and saying nothing, Niu Xidong suddenly... knelt on the ground.
Sister-in-law Zhang was able to break free from Niu Xidong with just a flash of skill.
"Silly girl, I'm lazy, but you know I don't usually steal anything."
Xing Rui frowned. Niu Xidong was a lazy man in the village, but no one had ever heard of him stealing anything.
"Then what do you think this is?"
Xing Rui handed him the cloth bag in her hand and asked him.
"I was so angry that I stole it on purpose."
"Can't you be angry? What are you angry about?"
Xing Rui asked him, not wanting to ask such a question. Niu Xidong, who looked cowardly just now, immediately raised his head and his eyes flashed with a fierce light.
"I'm angry that the people in Xiaogang Village are bullying others. Last time they chopped off Brother Xu's fingers and even used me, Niu Xidong, as a dog.
They didn't bully people like this. The more I thought about it, the more unhappy I became, so I couldn't sleep last night. I was so angry that I wanted to take revenge.
I just went to Xiaogang Village and stole these things."
Um?
Xing Rui turned her head and seemed to have thought of something.
Looking at Niu Xidong who was still kneeling on the ground, he smiled coldly and said,
"Isn't that what you said, Niu Xidong? It was his Xu Deyun's finger that was chopped off. What does it have to do with you, Niu Xidong? I remember that you two are not usually like this, right? Ha..."
With that said, Xing Rui put the cloth bag in his hand on the ground, squatted down in front of Niu Xidong, and said with eyes that could see through him,
"Let me take a guess, do you think what I said is correct? The reason you came back to report that day was actually to take revenge on Zhao Qiang and those people out of shame, right?"
"I, I, I didn't..."
Niu Xidong was frightened by Xing Rui's look and became even more panicked.
"The reason why Xu Deyun went to Xiaogang Village to gamble was because you said something behind his back?"
"No, no, no, it's not me, it's him who wants to go."
The more panicked Niu Xidong became, the more Xing Rui confirmed his guess.
"How much money did Zhao Qiang and the others promise to give you?"
