Vol 4 Chapter 70: The law, the hostage of the Zhou family

When Mr. Zhao heard the word "official", he shrank for a moment, then waved his hand and said impatiently: "How could the government have sentenced me to know! We are just ordinary people, each village has its own The village rules, this is everyone's default, even if we really put the Zhou family in the pond, the government can't say anything, this is a precedent!"

"Precedent, precedent..." Gu Shuixiu frowned and muttered, angrily: "Mother, we have clearly stipulated in Daliang that private punishment is not allowed. If someone kills you, that means you are partnering to kill someone, do you understand?

This Zhou family is still a good citizen, not a slave to trade, what is the difference between you doing this and murder! At that time, Yao's Zhou's family really started to make trouble, and this matter was brought to the government. The government judged that Zhou's crime was really not to die for, then our village would be over! Those who participated in Shentang would all go to jail, and they would also have to compensate the Zhou family for damages. Our village is all poor, who can afford this money? Also, who wants to go to jail? "

"This..." Zhao shi was so frightened by Gu Shuixiu's words that her face turned pale, and she couldn't recover for a long time, but she still couldn't turn her thoughts around and muttered unconvincingly: "I've had other women in the pool before, it's not good!"

Gu Shuixiu really didn't know how to talk to Zhao Shi, so she just shut up.

When Gu Mingde came back later, the Zhao family asked Gu Mingde to talk to him because he couldn't understand it, and asked in a puzzled way: "Master, what does Shuixiu mean? What does it mean that we can't Put the Zhou family in the pond? The Zhou family's situation is more serious than stealing a man!"

Gu Mingde frowned and pondered, obviously he needed to take a good stroke, and did not answer Zhao directly.

Just when the Zhao family was impatient, Gu Mingde said slowly: "Shuixiu means that our village's own village regulations are not as good as Daliang's laws, if the laws are above If Zhou's crime is really not worth dying for, then we are equivalent to lynching and murdering, if Zhou's family fights back and recklessly reports us, if the county magistrate pursues it, we will indeed go to jail."

"It really is!" Zhao exclaimed, and after a while of happiness, he hurriedly asked: "Master, then Zhou is still alive! Or you should send people to the county government. Go, so you don't have to be burdened by this matter. Even if Zhou shi is really not guilty, it is possible to lock her up for a few years. Let Gu Shengxiu let her go, and see how she will toss in the future!

If I say, this kind of punishment is cheap for her! A ruthless and poisonous woman, who can deal with such children, dare to slander our family Yuanzheng! "

Gu Mingde, because of Zhao's remarks, no one knows what to sleep, so he simply ran to the village chief's house again, and the two discussed it until late at night before leaving.

In the early morning of the next day, the village chief still called some clansmen, took out the key to open the door of the ancestral hall, and planned to settle the matter of the Zhou family, but unfortunately everyone entered the ancestral hall only to find out, Yesterday, the two women who watched Zhou were being tied by Zhou, and Zhou was holding a sharp bamboo against one of the women's necks. When the door of the ancestral hall opened, Zhou shouted proudly. Said: "Stop! Take it and get out of the way! Let me go, otherwise, I will let these two women be buried with me right now!"

The two women struggled desperately, but their hands and feet were tied and their mouths were gagged.

"Zhou Shi! Did you make a mistake in your plan?" Gu Fugui shouted loudly, his face ashen. When he took office, such a poisonous woman appeared. Handle it well, who will recognize him as the village chief in the future!

Right? Which one is more important, can't I tell the difference?

Get out of the way, prepare a carriage for me immediately, or I will kill them! "

Zhou shi looked at the people around her vigilantly. As long as someone took a step, the bamboo in her hand would be an inch closer to the neck of the hostage, which frightened the surrounding villagers at a loss.

At this moment, Zhou Shi suddenly threw the bamboo in his hand in pain, grabbed his hand and kept crying, everyone still didn't understand what happened, the two hostages saw Zhou's bamboo fell, and he hurriedly rolled on the ground twice to stay away from Zhou's.

The villagers reacted and hurriedly pulled the two people up and asked other villagers to protect them from leaving.

The only thing left in the ancestral hall was Mrs. Zhou holding her wrist and groaning in pain. Only at this time did the villagers realize that there were several small silver needles stuck on Mrs. Zhou’s wrist. If it weren’t for the silver needles Reflecting in the sunlight, they couldn't even spot the silver needles.

Gu Fugui looked around in horror and saw nothing, and didn't know how Zhou Shi was injured, but now is obviously not the time to think so much.

Gu Fugui hurriedly asked two strong villagers to tie the Zhou family up, this time he would not say anything to loosen the Zhou family again, "Let's pack up and send the Zhou family to the Let's go to the county government! Now our village also has a donkey cart from Brother Mingde's house. If you guys go to borrow it, we will send Zhou Shi away quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night."

The more women who stay in the village one more day, the more dangerous they are.

Gu Shuixiu, who was standing at the back of the crowd, said, "Uncle, don't bother others, I'll let Dong Si go home and drive the donkey cart over."

Only then did Gu Fugui know that Gu Shuixiu came over at some point. Could it be that the silver needle in Zhou's hand just now was done by someone around her? If that's the case, then it all makes sense.

"Okay, fine, then I will trouble Shuixiu. I will ask Gu Sheng to write the divorce letter first. Such a poisonous woman can't be named after our Gu family." Gu Fugui was in a hurry. When he left the ancestral hall, he actually went over and said that it seemed that he couldn't wait for a moment.

Zhou shi looked at Gu Shuixiu resentfully, struggling unwillingly to scold her, but the person next to her blocked her mouth, so she could only keep faltering, like a crazy woman.

"Hahaha...Spider, big spider..." At this time, there was a hoarse and harsh laughter from outside, and everyone looked back, only to find that the Huang family did not know when to get here, this While watching a play, he pointed at the Zhou family, crazy and dancing, everyone saw this, they didn't dare to come forward and stop drinking, and they all took a step back.

The Zhou family struggled even more when she saw the Huang family, but unfortunately she couldn't break free from the two big men, so she could only stare at the Huang family with grief and helplessness.
