The wind was freezing, and a gorgeous carriage was speeding along the official road. The curtain of the carriage was opened, revealing a delicate face that was more beautiful than a woman.
"Wu Gang, haven't you arrived yet?"
"Fifth Young Master, this road is not easy to use if it rains." Wu Gang, who was sitting on the carriage shaft, said angrily. He really didn't understand why this ancestor liked to get close to the little peasant girl.
That's right, the person who came was none other than Song Xiao. He let out a long yawn and said, "If you hurry up, I'll be very hungry."
Why did you go there earlier? There are so many places to eat in the town, but you still want to come to this farmhouse. Could it be that you are really used to eating delicacies from the mountains and game, and have switched to radish and green vegetables? However, the food cooked by Su Liu is indeed delicious.
Thinking like this, Wu Gang also felt his stomach growl, he let out a roar, whipped the horse on it, and it ran faster.
In less than a moment, the carriage drove through the bamboo forest in the north area of Da'ao Village. A big house was seen rising from the ground. In front of the house, many people gathered. I don't know what they were doing.
"Fifth Young Master, we're here." Wu Gang turned around and said something, but he squinted and looked over. Those people seemed to be blocking the door of Su Liu's house.
"It's your fault that you let the dog bite people. Now my Yulang is frightened. How do you want to settle this account?" Huang Er pointed at Su Liu and asked loudly.
"It's really funny. My dog bites people and he bites thieves. Are you still justified in stealing?" Su Xiao looked at these people with a sneer and said: "Everyone says that thieves are those who catch thieves. Now it seems that you are even better."
.”
Mrs. Huang Li's face turned red, and she suddenly regretted following her two sons to Su Liu's side.
"I don't care. My Yulang was bitten by your dog, and you have to pay for the soup and medicine." Huang Er's eyes flashed and he explained his purpose.
"Where is this old lady?" Su Liu looked at Huang Li with a smile. He stopped calling her "grandmother" and squinted his eyes: "Does the old lady also think that our family should pay for the decoction and medicine before Huang Yulang stole it first?"
, also when Huang Yulang was not injured?"
"Why aren't you injured? We Yulang are shocked. We have to take care of him no matter what. Either we keep him here with you until he recovers, or we pay compensation." He said sharply.
"In that case, let's report it to the official." Su Liu caressed his temples slowly and said, "If the county magistrate decides that our family should pay for the decoction and medicine to a person who stole something from our house, no matter how much it is, I will pay it."
pay."
Report to the official!
This trick again.
Huang Li's face changed, and even Huang Er and the others looked unpredictable and a little panicked.
"Su Liu, don't do this all the time, who are you scaring?" Su Jinfeng, who was watching the show from the side, felt like he couldn't sing anymore when he saw the excitement. He was afraid that the world would not be in chaos and said, "If you catch a thief, you still have to take the stolen goods.
You said Yulang stole something, so you need to provide evidence."
"Yes, yes, where is the evidence? You are making a false accusation." Zheng and others' eyes lit up after hearing this.
Huang Er seemed to be half alive, and said arrogantly: "That's right, even if the county magistrate comes, he still wants to present evidence. Why do you say that I, Yulang, stole something? But he was caught?"
Su Liu chuckled, looked at Su Jinfeng and said, "You are really smart." You know the word "catching stolen goods" from thieves. Yes, a fool can be taught.
Su Jinfeng snorted and raised her chin triumphantly, "What do you want to do this time?"
"Then tell me how much money we need to compensate?" Su Liu looked at Huang Er and the others.
Huang Er felt happy, exchanged glances with Zheng, and said: "Eight taels, no, ten taels."
After hearing this, Mrs. He was very worried and said hurriedly: "What's the deal? It's at least thirty taels. Who knows if Yulang will do anything wrong in the future? He was bitten by a dog. It can be big or small." As he said,
He winked at Mr. Zheng vigorously.
Mrs. Zheng understood and followed suit: "Yes, thirty taels, not a penny less."
Su Xiao's hair almost stood up when she heard this. Wasn't this obviously blackmail? If I had known that this group of people would come over aggressively, nothing good would happen. It turned out that they wanted to blackmail me. It was a good plan.
Just as he was about to jump into a rage, Su Liu stretched out his hand to stop him and said slowly and logically: "Well, thirty taels of silver is indeed not much."
Huang Er and the others were overjoyed to see that Su Liu deserved this, but they were also a little annoyed. They had known it would have been fifty taels, but before they could finish their joy, Su Liu's vicious words made their faces freeze with joy.
"If you are disabled and die or something, thirty taels of silver can be used to organize a nice funeral." Su Liu played with his fingers and said with a smile: "Then you can find some evidence to prove that my dog bit me."
I will compensate your grandson."
"What do you mean? Did you put shit in your mouth or something, and you cursed someone! Your damn dog bit Yulang, we all saw it clearly, do you still want to admit it?" Ms. Zheng jumped up.
"Oh, these elder brothers and uncles also saw it clearly. What rolled down from Yulang's hand was my family's jade pendant!" Su Liu pointed at the helpers who were watching the fun and said: "Brothers, you can see it.
?Have I wronged that child?"
"Of course it's true." Everyone said in unison: "It was indeed stolen."
"It doesn't matter. You are in the same group. They all work for you, so they naturally turn to you." Mrs. Zheng argued urgently.
"Is that so? Then I also say that you are in the same group. You are all relatives of flesh and blood. Naturally, you have the same intestines. Not to mention that my dog bit your grandson, even if I bit you, you can still say
of."
Zheng and the others were choked, and their expressions changed several times.
"You also saw that dead dog biting our Yulang." Mrs. Zheng looked at the helpers and said anxiously: "You can't be a person without conscience."
"I also saw that kid stealing someone else's jade gourd."
"Yes, I saw it too."
Obviously, these helpers couldn't see it. A large team of people came to bully a few women and children. What's the big deal? The child was obviously not bitten, but he still had the nerve to blackmail thirty taels of silver. Really
shameless.
Huang Li's face turned red with embarrassment as she listened to the people pointing around her. She also knew that Huang Yulang was not actually injured. We were all relatives, so she just apologized and got over it, but her son
They ask for thirty taels at the asking price. This is really blackmail!
"It doesn't matter what you say. I'm asking you, will you pay compensation?" Huang Er became so angry that he almost didn't rush to hit Su Liu.
"I said, if you show me the evidence, I will compensate you." Su Liu suppressed his smile and said, "If you can't do it, you can come and go. Otherwise, I will accuse you of blackmail, Mr. Magistrate."
I have some friendship with your son. Moreover, everyone heard that you asked for thirty taels of silver. They are all witnesses."
