Chapter 012: Trouble in the Town

Mother, I know, you and the third sister are waiting at home, and I'll go. Qin Meihua nodded, went to the kitchen to get a torch and hurried to the village chief's house. The village chief's house was brightly lit, and when she saw Qin Meihua poking her head at the gate of the courtyard, the village chief's daughter-in-law Li immediately beckoned her in, Meihua, come into the house. I was about to go to your house, but I was afraid that your mother-in-law and your third sister would be in a hurry.

Hearing this, Qin Meihua was shocked and hurriedly asked: Auntie, but the village chief had an accident in Luojia Village?

Li sighed and said: Luo Jiaquan refused to accept this matter, and my father-in-law and your father-in-law refused to give up. This alarmed the town, and the people were taken to the town.

Yes? Qin Meihua's face turned pale, and she asked again: Where is my eldest brother? Did Meng Yang ask him to go to Luojia Village?

Li shook his head, I don't know about this.

Auntie, what now? Qin Meihua was so anxious that she rubbed her hands, and suddenly ran out of ideas.

Li Shi thought for a while, and then said: Meihua, this matter can't be hidden from your mother-in-law and third sister, you should go home and sue them. I'll go find other men in the village, and then find Qin Dashi's mother, I want to go to the town to see the situation, otherwise I don't have any bottom in my heart.

Auntie, you go find someone first, and then come and inform me, and I'll go to town too. After Qin Meihua finished speaking, she hurried back to Meng's house. When Wang saw her running back panting, without even hitting the torch, he had a bad premonition in his heart.

Eldest daughter-in-law, what's wrong?

Qin Meihua supported her knees with her hands, looked at Wang worriedly, and said, "Mother, don't be in a hurry, listen to me."

Wang nodded.

Meng Xia stood nervously to the side, frowning at Qin Meihua.

Mother, my father and the village chief have been taken to the town, I will come back and tell you, and I will go to the town with Aunt Li later. You are waiting at home, we are the reasonable party, and the mayor will definitely deal with it impartially.

Why did you still make trouble in town? When Wang heard this, he was so anxious that he stood up from the stool.

Meng Xia held her and comforted her softly, mother, just now my sister-in-law asked you not to get angry. I think this matter must have been caused by the fact that the people of Luojia Village and the village chief could not get along, and the people of the two villages had a conflict, so it alarmed the people in the town.

Qin Meihua nodded hurriedly, yes! That's it.

Wang panicked, thought for a while, and said: "Eldest daughter-in-law, I'll go with you later."

No way! Meng Xia and Qin Meihua refused in unison, the two looked at each other, and said in unison: Mother, you can't go!

Meng Xia said with a firm attitude: Mother, I will accompany my sister-in-law later. In the past few days, my body has almost rested, and besides, my sister-in-law and I are both insiders and victims of this matter, so we will go to the mayor of the town to reason.

Xia'er, you can't go. Wang shook his head.

Mother, I have to go. Luo Laosan was beaten by me, they must be shirking responsibility for this matter, I must make it clear. Meng Xia hesitated for a moment, but still asked the Wang family, mother, do I still have any silver in my family? Let's go to town and maybe do some tiding.

Nope. Wang shook his head.

There was only a little silver at home, and the day before yesterday I also took it to Meng Xia to grab a fetal pill.

Qin Meihua is a young lady from a rich family, and after seeing Qin Baolin's methods of doing business, she immediately understood what Meng Xia meant. She hurriedly went into the house and returned to the room, and took out a pair of gold bracelets from the bottom of the box when she was married.

The Qin family is much better than the Meng family, when she got married, Qin Baolin gave a lot of dowry, but Qin Meihua took into account Meng Yang's feelings, so she put away all her jewelry from the day she got married, and usually only wore plain dresses.

The Meng family did not agree to the marriage of Meng Yang and Qin Meihua at the beginning, because they were worried that they would not be able to support this rich daughter-in-law. After Qin Meihua found out, she secretly made up her mind to marry her husband and treat herself as an ordinary peasant woman from then on.

Going up and down the mountain, doing laundry and cooking, she is already very familiar with it.

However, the Wang family generally rushes to do the work and does not let her work too much.

Meng Xia also entered the house and took out the longevity lock from under the pillow. If there is really no way, she has to take this longevity lock properly. He will find a way to redeem it again one day.

The two sisters-in-law persuaded the Wang family for a long time, and the Wang family finally nodded and agreed to let them go to the town.

At the entrance of the mayor's office, the black light is blinding, and it seems that there is no office inside. Li asked Qin Lei to knock on the door, and it took a long time for the porter to open the door, and the porter glanced at them, frowned and asked unhappily: What are so many of you doing here?

Qin Lei asked with a polite smile: Uncle, we want to ask, were the people from Luojia Village and Qinjia Village brought here in the afternoon? How are they doing now?

If you ask me about this, who will I ask? I don't know, I don't know, you guys go quickly. The porter waved his hand unhappily to drive away, Meng Xia stepped forward and stuffed him with a small money bag, uncle, we are all from Qinjia Village, and our family has not come home so late, so we are in a hurry. Uncle, if you know anything, tell us about it. We promise not to reveal it, but you told us about it.

The money bag contained a hundred pieces of money, which Meng Xia usually saved.

The porter shook the money bag in his hand, and his attitude immediately changed, and I saw that you were anxious, so I would like to tell you a few words. The people of these two villages were detained, and the mayor went to the county overnight to ask for instructions from the county lords.

Meng Xia hurriedly thanked: Thank you, uncle.

The door turned slightly, I didn't say anything.

We didn't hear anything. Meng Xia looked at him.

The door nodded in satisfaction and closed the door.

What are we going to do now? The crowd stood in the doorway, looking at each other uneasily.

Qin Meihua said with a sad face: The mayor is not in the town, so it's useless for us to be here. I'm afraid I can't go in to see them, why don't we go back first?

Li and the others have joined in, right! We can't help it here, so it's better to go back first, so as not to make the people at home more worried.

Meng Xia looked at the Li family, Aunt Li, you go back to the village first, and I will trouble you to stay with my mother at our house tonight. My sister-in-law's house has a house in the town, so my sister-in-law and I won't go back first. Let's see what happens tomorrow? If there is a situation, I will have someone carry a letter back to the village.

She couldn't go back to the village like this.

The mayor went to the county overnight, which sounded a little strange. Qin Baolin is a celebrity in the town, and it is impossible for the mayor of the town not to have any affection at all, and he will go directly to the magistrate at once.

That's fine! You can inquire about the news in the town with peace of mind, and your mother will be handed over to me. Li responded boldly, and hurriedly ordered the men to drive the cattle and horses back to the village, you should be careful, don't be tough.
