Chapter 171 It's a pleasure to chat with smart people
Until the county government office closed, the Liu family's mother-in-law lay on the ground, ignored, and passed out several times.
Two officers picked her up and threw her out of the courtroom, then closed the county government door.
"Ah..." The Liu family's mother-in-law fell even more painfully, but she no longer had the strength to scream.
After a while, a bullock cart driver came and told her a price before sending her back to Baoshan Village.
At this time, it was time for everyone to eat after the meal. Someone saw the broken ox cart pulling the half-dead Mrs. Liu back at the entrance of the village, and started shouting.
"Come and see, Madam Liu is back after being beaten!"
At this time, many people in the village came out to watch the fun. It was the first time that the Liu family's mother-in-law enjoyed the treatment of being "welcome" by the villagers when she returned to the village. It was a pity that everyone came to see the joke.
"Mrs. Liu, why doesn't anyone pick you up at your house?" someone asked deliberately.
The Liu family's mother-in-law hated her so much that she scolded her son and daughter-in-law countless times in her heart, but she didn't have the strength to shout as usual.
The spectators said sarcastic remarks to each other, but no one sympathized with Mrs. Liu at all.
You can only live a good life, but you have to act like a monster and bring yourself and your family to death.
"Granny Liu, I heard that your family has to pay a fine, can you still afford it? Do you want to sell the land?" someone else asked.
After Bai Banxia got the news, she went out of the courtyard to watch the excitement, and Xiaocao also followed.
"Xiaocao goes back to play, don't look at this." After all, she is Xiaocao's grandmother, and Bai Banxia doesn't want her child to have hatred in her heart since she was a child.
"Evil people will be punished, and those who do bad things will be punished." Xiaocao clenched her fists and said seriously, "She is no longer my grandma."
Bai Banxia was stunned for a moment, but she soon felt relieved. She didn't want her child to feel resentful at a young age, but she also didn't want her child to grow up into a flower in a greenhouse and not know how to protect herself or guard against others.
Xiaocao is doing well as she is now.
"You go in first, sister has something to do." She thought about what she wanted to do, but she still didn't want to take Xiaocao with her.
"Well, hurry up then, grandma said she's waiting for you to get the injection." Xiaocao said with a smile.
The grandma in her mouth was naturally Mrs. Bai. Bai Banxia curled her lips and said, "She was still refusing to prick yesterday, but she is more active today."
"That was cured by my sister." Xiaocao said and returned to the yard obediently.
Bai Banxia went over to watch the excitement and secretly sprinkled some medicinal powder into the air.
This was prepared when she came back. It is not poison and can be easily blown away in the air. However, it will not heal well if the wound is touched.
She is not a good person. If she said she would let Mrs. Liu experience the same pain as Xiaocao, she would definitely do what she said.
When the villagers saw Bai Banxia, they were all eager to try. Some even picked up a lump of earth and handed it to her.
"Banxia, do you want to teach her a lesson?"
Bai Banxia didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw the lump of earth handed over to her. Although she took it, she didn't intend to throw it away.
"No need, the county magistrate is fair and honest. He has already punished her. Let her suffer slowly and don't dirty our hands." Bai Banxia said.
Everyone looked at Mrs. Liu's miserable state and thought it made sense, so they let Mrs. Liu go.
The driver pulling the bullock cart breathed a sigh of relief. He just wanted to make some money, so why did he feel so dangerous?
He had just seen that several people had gone to pick up stones and clods of soil. He was really afraid that they would suddenly throw them at him and accidentally injure him.
It’s so hard to make some money these days!
In Liu's yard, Liu San had heard the news, but he still refused to go out.
Neither Liu's third daughter-in-law nor Liu's eldest daughter-in-law said anything, and the room was so quiet that there seemed to be no one there.
Finally, shouts came from outside the door, and the coachman called the Liu family to come out and pay for the carriage.
Liu San had no choice but to find some copper coins and went out to give them to the coachman.
"Why is it so small? Your old lady told me to pay double the amount before I pulled the car. Don't renege on the payment!" The coachman shouted, "Old lady, don't you think so?"
The Liu family's mother-in-law wanted to pretend to be dead, but the coachman blocked the car and shouted: "Is it easy for me to make some money? If you don't give me some money today, don't even think about getting out of the car!"
"Wait a minute." Liu San's head was buzzing with pain. He jumped on one leg and re-entered the house. He tripped and almost fell. His wife hurriedly stepped forward to help him, but her face was very ugly.
Liu San took the money and gave it to the coachman again, and the coachman got out of the way and said, "Hurry up and carry the people in. I'm in a hurry to go home for dinner."
Liu's third daughter-in-law and Liu's eldest daughter-in-law had no choice but to help Mrs. Liu, but as soon as they touched her, she screamed.
"Oh, it hurts me to death. This unfilial thing who kills you with a thousand swords doesn't even know how to pick me up..."
Before she could finish her words, Liu San suddenly exploded.
"Okay!" Liu San suddenly roared, "I've lost one of my legs, how can I go out? Look what has become of this family. If you hadn't been so evil and sold grass, how could you have ended up like this?
?You’re going to make us pay the money as well.”
The surroundings were extremely quiet for a moment, and finally the two remaining wives and children of the Liu family carried the person inside.
Everyone dispersed, but no one said that Liu San was unfilial. Instead, they felt that if Liu San ignored his mother, the whole family would be killed by the Liu family's mother-in-law.
Bai Banxia returned home, and Qi Zhen was grinding mung beans in the courtyard. When he saw her coming in, he raised his head and smiled at her.
He washed his face as soon as he got home, and his face returned to its original look. Such a smile really made all living beings look upside down.
Even though Bai Banxia had seen it many times, her heartbeat still missed half a beat, and she secretly cursed that this man was too good-looking, which was a disaster.
"Have you ever thought about a question?" Qi Zhen said suddenly.
"Huh?" Bai Banxia didn't know what he was asking.
Qi Zhen stopped his movements, stood up straight and looked at her. The moonlight shone down, casting a halo over his whole body, adding a touch of softness to his handsomeness.
"How did Mrs. Liu find Mrs. Ya?" he said.
"Yes, I have also thought about it. Mrs. Liu has been locked up at home recently. How did she know that Mrs. Ya wanted to buy a girl? She ran out not long ago, so why did she find Mrs. Ya directly?" Bai Banxia also thought in the court.
Yes, but it was no longer relevant to the case, so she couldn't ask again.
Qi Zhen nodded, "Ask the Liu family who has visited the Liu family's mother-in-law recently."
"Okay." Bai Banxia agreed, "I will go to grandma's house tomorrow. I have a drawing for my aunt, and I also want to see the situation of the decision."
"Okay, I'll accompany you." Qi Zhen said and continued to work.
The three words "I will accompany you" are very simple, but they have a different flavor. If you chew them carefully, you will feel extra gentle. Isn't it said that companionship is the longest confession of love?
Bai Banxia shook her head hastily. What was going on in her head was all kinds of chaos.
"I suspect that the Li family in Maple Village knows something that we don't know, or that the woodland is not as simple as it seems. The hatred of the Li family is a bit too strong," she added.
Qi Zhen was not surprised. Apparently he had also thought about it. It was a pleasure for two smart people to chat.
