Chapter 784 Murder

Ouch!

The whole audience was in an uproar. Everyone pointed at Zheng Tianqiang and questioned him, "Yes, you knew that Grandma Wan was almost 80 years old, but you still carried her from Dongling County. Dongling County and Baofu County are separated by Maohua County, which takes several days to travel. Why did you torture the old lady like this?!"

"You are obviously jealous of the Qin family's benefits, so you brought the old man here to force the court to give you benefits as well!!"

The voice was extremely loud and clear, and everyone present could hear it clearly.

No need to guess, it was the Qin family who sent servants to disguise themselves and blend into the crowd and shout!

They are using the old man to force the Qin family to ask for benefits. Can the Qin family still be polite to them?

The crowd was in an uproar: "Oh my God, so that's what happened. I said they had ulterior motives, and now their dirty thoughts are exposed!"

"That's right, I really want to avenge my family. Why didn't you bring your husband's family back to hunt down the murderer after the village was massacred?!"

"Hey, you are being unreasonable. How can a woman chase a vicious person?"

“You can choose not to pursue the murderer, but you can move back to guard the village.”

"Yes, yes, married women can indeed come back to protect the village. I heard from my parents that after the village was massacred, many bad rumors arose. In order to dispel these rumors, the government invited married women to come back. As long as they are willing to bring their husbands back to protect the village, they can share the village land equally!"

"They could have divided the land equally, but they didn't dare move back in the end, fearing they would die in the village like their mother's family members did."

"Because no one came back to guard the village, Wansong Village became a deserted village. It was not until the disaster victims settled down that Wansong Village became lively again."

As the villagers talked about it, they all sighed.

Zheng Tianqiang and his team of mourners were anxious and shouted: "Our grandmothers and great-grandmothers have to listen to their husbands. They have no say in the matter. We can't blame them!"

"Besides, they are old now and don't have much time left to live. They just want to return to the village to live for a while before they die. Why are you so aggressive?!"

This time, Qin Xiaomi didn't need to retort. The onlookers said, "You know that the old people don't have much time left, so why are you still torturing them? You are clearly kidnapping the elderly and using them to threaten the Qin family to get benefits from them!"

"Bah, stop spreading rumors, we didn't!" Zheng Tianqiang cursed, feeling very disgusted... They didn't even care about the benefits of the Qin family, what they wanted were the benefits of the imperial court.

In terms of orthodoxy, they are the descendants of the original villagers of Wansong Village. The Qin family fled from famine, so how could they be granted official titles by the court? And how could they be ordered to build a house?

Of course, they didn't kill any bandits or spies, so they didn't ask for much. As long as they could live in Wansong Village, inherit their grandmother's family land, and be praised by the imperial court, that would be enough.

In short, all the people who fled from famine can benefit, and as descendants of the original villagers, they should benefit even more!

Zheng Tianqiang stood up again, pointed at Qin Xiaomi, and asked angrily: "Mr. Qin, what is your intention in questioning us for taking advantage of the elderly? I am my grandmother's grandson. I have ruined my grandmother. What good can I get from it?!"

"You're right!" Qin Xiaomi stood tall on the table and shouted, "Fellow villagers, I've read an ancient book that says that we humans have two values: the value of creating everything while alive, and the value of earning a fortune after death!"

"The three old ladies are already very old, and their days are numbered. Their descendants might torture them to death in order to make a fortune, and then use their deaths to cause trouble."

"Let me ask you, by then, will my Qin family, the government, and even the Qi Tianshi and others have to give in to Zheng Tianqiang and his group of unworthy descendants for the sake of the deceased elders? In this way, we can restore peace to the deceased elders, the slaughtered villagers of Wansong Village, and the entire Taifeng Town!"

This, this, this?

After hearing this, the villagers felt as if their brains had exploded. They were shocked by this calculation: "Is there such a calculation?"

"Of course there are. There are many such schemes. About ten years ago, in Kongjia Village, Kong Zhenshan's grandfather was dying of illness. His family took him to the outskirts of the county and deliberately let him be hit by a car and killed. They received five taels of silver as compensation. His descendants didn't have to pay for his funeral, but the funeral was held in a grand manner!"

"Oh, there is such a thing? The Kong Zhenshan family is a family of evil from the beginning!"

"That's right. Now the Kong Zhenshan family has gotten what they deserved."

Chief Kong, who came to watch the show, said: "..."

The ancestor of this branch of Kong Zhenshan is bringing shame to the Kong family!

Village chief Cao, who was watching the show nearby, smiled secretly. Look, look, now you know why his Cao family caught the attention of Mr. Qin, the young master.

Because his Cao family is just damaged, they are not really bad.

Qin Xiaomi continued to shout: "I also ask all the villagers to be witnesses for my Qin family, so that some unworthy descendants will not harm others and then come to frame my family, saying that my Qin family did not allow them to move back to Wansong Village, which made the old lady angry and die!"

"Master Qin, rest assured, Master Qin, we will definitely testify for your family and will never let these unworthy descendants harm the Qin family!"

There is no need to guess, it was the Qin family's disguised servant who shouted.

After someone started talking, the villagers all echoed and said they would testify for the Qin family.

"Thank you, fellow villagers." Qin Xiaomi continued to shout, "Zheng Tianqiang, if you want to move back to Wansong Village, you should go to the county government instead of carrying the elderly people and kneeling here to force my family. The relocation of households is handled by the government, what does it have to do with my Qin family?!"

"Yes, it has nothing to do with the Qin family. You should go to the government office!"

"Oh, they don't dare. If they dare to carry the old man to the government office to make trouble, the government office will immediately throw them into jail, and they will be bullying the Qin family for being kind and reasonable!"

Qin Xiaomi nodded and said, yes, yes, yes, that’s right. They just bully our Qin family because we are kind and reasonable.

Zheng Tianqiang and other people in mourning were pointed at and scolded by the villagers. They were very angry, and fierce light flashed in their eyes. He gestured to the back.

When Zheng Tianqiang's wife saw this, she looked at the sleeping Grandma Wan with shaking hands. She took the opportunity to cover Grandma Wan with a thin quilt, and then, using the quilt to cover her, she pressed heavily on the lower part of Grandma Wan's neck.

Grandma Wan had been too ill to get out of bed and was now in a coma. She couldn't struggle or call for help, and her breathing became increasingly difficult.

And besides Zheng Tianqiang's wife, there were no other relatives around Grandma Wan... It was because the other relatives did not agree with Zheng Qiangtian's approach, so they did not come and just let Zheng Tianqiang and his wife make a fuss.

After all, if the couple gets along well, they can also benefit from it.

But Qian Wan, who was five meters away from Grandma Wan, noticed something was wrong. She was already paralyzed and couldn't even lift her hands. She could only scream.

But she usually screamed and moaned, so her granddaughters-in-law just thought she had defecated. They felt under the quilt and found it was dry, so they thought she was hungry and fed her porridge and water.

Qian Wanshi was so anxious that she burst into tears and felt very helpless.

however……

"Stop it, you vicious woman. How dare you murder an old man in public? You really want to make trouble with the old man's death!" Hua Zongqi, Jiang Dalang and Xu Sanjun, who were dressed in mourning, had already mixed into the team and were staring at the three mothers-in-law. When they saw something was wrong, they immediately rushed over, grabbed Zheng Tianqiang's wife and threw her aside.

"Doctor Xue, Female Doctor Xue, Elder Xun, and Miss Baiying, please come and take a look at this old lady!"

"Hey, hey, hey, here they come!" Doctor Xue and his colleagues, carrying medicine boxes, squeezed their way over here.

After hearing what Hua Zongqi and the others said, the group in mourning were so frightened that they made way for her, fearing that something might happen to Grandma Wan and the government would charge them as accomplices!
