"What are you talking about?" Zhou Lang couldn't help but said: "They just come here to challenge the autumn wind. They want soft food and hard food, and they don't care where their family has such a big face."
"Fight them out," he said angrily: "Didn't you say that you are going to the county government to sue us? Go ahead, I want to see what you can sue us for? By the way, didn't you say that the county magistrate is coming to visit today?
Well, where are the people, please come quickly and we can cut them off now."
Bai Shan was very surprised. Seeing that Zhang's family was making trouble again, he pulled Zhou Lang back and asked in a low voice: "Fourth brother, why are you so angry?"
"The Zhang family is so shameless that they came to our house to tell us why the Zhang family married an aunt to our house before and asked our family to marry someone back..."
Bai Shan's eyes widened, "What is this?"
"What a shameless scoundrel said." Zhou Lang thought he was a fool enough, but he was still very angry. "Grandma, I have traveled all over the country for so many years, what kind of scoundrel haven't I seen? You want to take advantage of my Zhou family, when we
Are they all dead?”
Bai Shan asked: "Where are my father-in-law and mother-in-law?"
"Not at home," Zhou Lang said: "They took my sister-in-law and Li Zhong to their uncle's house..."
Although Uncle Qian and the others were having a drink in the village yesterday, according to Li, Mrs. Qian and Mrs. Qian had not been back to their parents' home for many years. They finally returned to their hometown. They always wanted to go back to their parents' home to see their relatives there.
Bai Shan knew what he was doing, so he grabbed Zhou Lang and whispered a few words. After he left, he stepped forward to stop the two groups of people who were pushing each other again, "Okay, okay, either go to the ancestral hall, or just sit under the banyan tree."
Now, how about we put the table on the table and talk about it?"
He said: "I have been a county magistrate, so how about I recommend myself to resolve today's case?"
"No, you are from the Zhou family and you are here to resolve the case. Who knows if you are acting favoritism?"
"I don't show favoritism, I only respect justice. If you are not convinced, then go to the Yamen and sue the Zhou family. We can also go to court," Bai Shan said: "But I am curious, what kind of lawsuit does the Zhou family have with your family?"
"If you go to court without a lawsuit, it is a false accusation, and false accusation is also a crime."
The crowd calmed down. When Bai Shan saw that they were finally willing to obey, he turned to the villagers of Qili Village and said: "Go and bring some tables, chairs and benches over, and then invite the village chief and clan elders to come over. The quarrel has reached the point where they want to take action. We must also let the clan
Come here, old men, and cut it off."
There was a commotion on the other side of the Zhang family, and someone lowered his voice and said, "What are you talking about? We are here to get benefits. We just want to make trouble. How can we reason with them? This is still in Qili Village."
As soon as these words came out, the Zhang family became noisy. Bai Shan raised his voice and said, "Of course, if you don't want to be reasonable and just come to make trouble, we have our own ways to deal with the trouble."
His face darkened, and he stared at them with cold eyes and said: "Tie them all up, or throw them out of the village, or send them to the Yamen. They just said they were captured bandits and were caught on the spot by the villagers."
"You're slanderous, but we didn't steal anything."
"You didn't steal anything, and you didn't come to Qili Village to argue with me, so what are you doing here?"
"Cousin-in-law, you can't favor one over the other. Our two families are also related. Our Zhang family is your father-in-law's uncle, so we have a good relationship. The Zhou family here harmed your father-in-law back then..."
Bai Shan's forehead twitched slightly and he had a slight headache. He was most afraid of people like this in his life. No matter what others said, he only believed in what he believed in and refused to listen to a word from others.
Zhou Lang brought a group of young people from the village over, all with ropes in their hands.
Bai Shan pulled Zhou Man back two steps and waved his hand, "Tie them all up."
Since we can't be reasonable, we can only use unreasonable solutions.
The Zhou family and the young people from the village they brought swarmed forward. Three to five people held down one person and tied them up with ropes.
The village suddenly heard screams and curses like pigs.
Bai Shan turned around and covered Zhou Man's ears with his hands, blocking her sight, and said to Zhou Lang: "Gug your mouth, too."
After everyone was tied up and gagged, Bai Shan let go of Zhou Man. He looked at the eight middle-aged and young people who were thrown on the ground and exhaled. He waved and said, "Carry them under the banyan tree to hide from the sun.
Don’t let the sun burn you.”
Zhou Lang muttered, "Why are you so considerate?"
But they still had people carry them over.
Most of the young people called over by Zhou Lang came back from the fields. They even tied the ropes with rice. They were all dressed in bundts and were dirty. However, they were all excited and refused to leave. It was so lively.
It's rare.
After they carried people over, Bai Shan asked Zhou Dalang, "Brother, what do the Zhang family want to do?"
Zhou Dalang: "What else can I do? I'm just here to make trouble. I guess I think our family won't make things worse. Even if we are unwilling, a little leakage will be enough for them to live for a while."
He said displeasedly: "Our two families have not been in contact for more than ten years, and now only my second cousin is still alive. Who would have thought that they would come to visit us now?"
Bai Shan asked: "Does the family want to turn big things into small things?"
Zhou Dalang: "You have tied up people, can you still be kind?"
Bai Shan smiled softly and said, "As long as you think about it, it's okay."
But Zhou Dalang thought for a while and then shook his head, "Forget it, originally I thought they were coming to make trouble, so it would be okay to give them a little something to pass on, otherwise it would not sound good if the news spread. After all, there are so many people in the family who are officials."
Zhou Dalang knew that officials had a bad reputation and the censor could be impeached, so he didn't want to make a big fuss.
But what Shiro said is right. If you endure it this time, they will definitely come to your door next time and try to stop them. Things will only get more and more complicated in the future. It is better to take advantage of this being their first time to come to your door before things get too serious.
When it gets too big, they all simply break up and cut off their thoughts all at once.
"Fortunately, my father and mother are not at home. If he sees it at home, he will be furious to death." Zhou Dalang and Bai Shan said: "You can handle it. It's best if you can break off the relationship. Even if you can't, you must scare them this time. Wait.
Once the second cousin leaves, the two families will be further apart, and even if they say bad things about us outside, things will be much smaller."
Bai Shan pondered, then nodded after a while, "I know how to deal with it."
The elders of the Zhou family and the village chief were quickly helped to the banyan tree. Bai Shan mused, "It's not enough for us Zhou family to be here. We have to invite the elders and village chief of the Zhang family to come over."
"How about that far away? It will be dark when we get back, right?"
Bai Shan then smiled and said, "Then lock the person up first and decide the case tomorrow. Let's ask questions first today?"
Bai Shan glanced at the eight people struggling on the ground, pointed at the one who looked the youngest and said, "Take the rag out of his mouth."
