Farming: I dressed up as a widow and beat my parents-in-law violently

The Zhao family left the shop with satisfaction.

When leaving, he frequently looked at Yan Xia.

2 p.m.

All flower cakes are sold out.

Same as yesterday.

Earned 34 taels.

When he returned to Baihua Village, he passed by the Chen family's house. Yan Xia saw several officials standing outside the Chen family's gate.

All of them have strong bodies, and some of them even have scars on their faces. Looking at their fierce looks, you can tell that they are definitely not idlers.

Many villagers gathered around, and they pointed at the Chen family.

It seemed like a whisper, but the sound echoed around, and drifted into Yan Xia's ears along the summer evening breeze.

"I heard that the Chen family was stolen, and dozens of taels of silver were lost."

"Really? Why is the Chen family so rich?"

"Isn't that right? I heard that Chen Shouguo, who died in the battle, received thirty taels of pension money from the government. I don't know if this thief is from our village."

"Oh, thirty taels, so much money, so Mrs. Li is so cruel to her daughter-in-law. I remember that when Mrs. Yan left the Chen family, she seemed penniless. She really deserves her retribution. .”

"Hey, who do you think stole this money? No one has come to our village recently. It must be someone from the village who stole it."

"Could it be the Yan family? After all, she suddenly built a house and spent so much money on getting a wife."

"Oh, sister-in-law of the Xu family, don't dare to talk nonsense. If the officials hear this, wouldn't it mean that Yan will be questioned."

"Just ask, if you haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of?"

Several talkative women spoke louder and louder.

Even the people around him, including the officials, looked at Yan Xia and the others.

At this moment, the explosions of Zhu Xiaohua and Chen Li came from the Chen family courtyard.

"Little bitch, did you steal our family's money? I'm going to tell you how you can eat well, wear clothes well, and still have money to build a house. Give us back the money -"

"Master official, she was the one who stole our family's money. It was definitely her. She obviously didn't have a penny when she left the Chen family. She had only spent less than a month building a house and spending five taels of silver as a bride price to marry her. Wife, sir, you have to make the decision for me—"

The two of them rushed out of the yard and cursed at Yan Xia.

"Oh? Really? Who is in front of you?"

One of the officials asked Yan Xia, he should be the boss.

"This little bitch is the bitch that our Chen family divorced. She must have stolen our money. Master, if you catch her in jail and beat her dozens of times, she will definitely tell the truth."

Chen Li's eyes widened, and her old face was filled with ferociousness.

He looked as if he wished Yan Xia would be beaten to death by an officer.

"Don't talk nonsense. My mother earned her own money. When did you steal your Chen family's money? You are so cruel. My mother has been tortured by you for so many years. She finally left your den of jackals. You Now that you are slandering your mother by bringing up the theft of money, your Chen family should be struck by lightning from the sky and die——"

Chen Jinfu was so angry that his hands were shaking.

His former grandmother actually falsely accused his own mother, and even instigated the officials to take her into prison and torture her. Not to mention women, even men could not escape safely after being imprisoned.

The damn old woman wants my mother to die in prison——

This was the first time that Yan Xia saw her honest eldest son get angry.

She felt relieved.

"Okay, the right and wrong of the matter is not decided by you, Mrs. Chen Li. This is not your room. Sir, the civilian woman has reconciled with Chen Shouguo, the youngest son of the Chen family. Since his death in the war, Mrs. Chen Li has been very concerned about the people. The woman beat and scolded her, and it was a trivial matter not to have enough food and clothing, but the children of the common woman were all starved and emaciated. For the sake of their children, the common woman would rather divorce without money and break away from the Chen family than to Just survive there."

When it came to the emotional part, Yan Xia wiped away the non-existent tears.

"This money was originally the pension money of the man in front of the woman, but the woman and the children didn't see a single copper coin, so forget it. We just learned from the villagers today that the pension amount was as high as thirty taels. Yinzi, Mrs. Chen Li is so cruel. She hides it from the women and children of the people, and still wants to tease us. We have all left the Chen family, and she still blames the women for this unfounded crime. This shows how vicious her heart is. , can you believe the words of such a person? What a common woman is today is all thanks to God’s reward——"

The voice just fell.

Several kind-hearted villagers who were watching stood up to speak for Yan Xia.

"Yes, the Yan family is here today only because of God's pity. What are you doing to your Chen family? Aren't the sins your Chen family has done enough? If Shouguo knew that his wife was forced by you to reconcile with the dead, he would be afraid. I’m not going to come out of the ground to settle accounts with you.”

"Ms. Yan picked up wild boars and grizzly bears and sold them for a lot of money. All of us saw it. By the way, Dali even drove a bullock cart to help her deliver them to the town to sell them. If she steals from you How about living in a ruined temple with drafts everywhere in the first place?"

The two groups of people started arguing.

"Okay, everyone who has nothing to do with this should shut up."

The chief officer looked fierce, and when he frowned, everyone fell silent in fear.

"What happened? What evidence do you have that this woman stole it?"

Yan Xia watched the officials questioning Chen Li and knew that they were being reasonable.

"This little bitch not only built a house, but also spent a lot of money on her son's wife. She also bought all kinds of good things for the house. Who would believe that she didn't spend forty or fifty taels? Wild boars and grizzly bears can be sold. Did she get so much money? She must have stolen it. Afraid of being discovered, she pretended to be poor when she first left the Chen family to confuse the villagers. Maybe the grizzly bear and wild boar were a cover, and she spent the stolen money in an honest way. , you must know that the silver stolen from our house was exactly fifty taels."

Zhu Xiaohua took over the conversation.

Speak with reason.

The official began to think deeply, his eyes fixed on Yan Xia.

Very sharp.

Yan Xia wanted to laugh. Did the Chen family really not know the value of wild boars and grizzly bears?

"Why, in your eyes, wild boars and grizzly bears can't even be sold for forty or fifty taels? If I steal your little money, I can only sell wild boars for thirty taels, let alone grizzly bears. Compared with wild boars, It's much more expensive. Sir, the game sold by the women of the people is in Shuangqiao Town. You can go and find out clearly. That family is the first one across the bridge. The mansion is built on a majestic building. The housekeeper's surname is Wang. , Get acquainted with the peasant woman, and ask the peasant woman to call him Brother Wang. All the money spent by the peasant woman is from selling game."

Yan Xia looked at the official officer openly.

His eyes were firm and not wandering at all.

"Butler Wang? It seems that you are telling the truth. You can leave. You have nothing to do here."

The official and Yan Xia looked at each other and then looked away.
