System: The Path of a Mortal Being Stronger Through Being a Mother
Chapter 48 The Mother of Unfilial Sons Part 48
Lin Miao coughed and said, "Xu Lizheng, clan leader, these people broke in in the middle of the night. You see, they were carrying axes and machetes. They wanted to kill us. I was afraid for a moment, so I used too much force..."
The head of the village complained in his heart: You are really scared. You beat him like this. If you were not scared, you would have beaten him to death.
These guys are almost in a state of disrepair. We are not here to rescue you, we are here to rescue these four bandits.
He thought to himself, but said nicely: "Well, these people are armed and broke into houses to rob. Even if they are beaten to death, it is not too much. First tie them up and take them to the empty house at the entrance of the village. Let a few people guard them, and then send them to the government office tomorrow. If we let them go, no one in our village will live in peace in the future."
He was annoyed that they were shouting too loudly, and had someone cover their mouths...
Lin Miao appreciated their good intentions and quickly said, "Thank you for your hard work. I will have someone send some wine to every household in the village. It's getting cold outside, so you need some wine to warm yourself up."
Several people who were called to help and some men who were assigned to watch over people were somewhat unhappy at first, but they were all happy after hearing this. The Wang family's wine was bought from a restaurant in the town and it tasted delicious.
Most men are born with a love of wine.
Lin Miao saw everyone off from her home.
The excrement and urine of the four bandits were just cleaned up by Tian Ergui and his men.
Lin Miao asked them to prepare some drinks for everyone. It was convenient as they had plenty at home.
The four bandits have discovered something is wrong. While they hate Lin Miao, they hate the person who deliberately lured them here even more. Yes, he must have deliberately tricked them.
If that person hadn't said that Lin didn't have any special skills and only had some brute force, the four of them wouldn't have been able to make this trip. They knew who this Lin was. If that person hadn't done it on purpose, how could he have stated Lin's home address so clearly!
These four people were not from the village, so the clan leader and the village head had no sympathy for them and sent reliable men to guard them, intending to send them to the government office the next day.
If this matter is not dealt with harshly, will there be peace in the village in the future?
Lin Miao originally thought that these were just a few bandits, but she didn't expect that there were other accidents inside.
The next day, several bandits were sent to the government office, and they all confessed before they were even tortured.
Two days later, the wife of the village head came to see Lin Miao and said, "Those bandits are bullies from other towns. It is said that they were cruel and ruthless in the past, and they are all gamblers."
"At the government office, they just said that they overheard Hunter Zheng bragging that there was a Lin in their village who had a new house and made a fortune in the mountains. They probably had thousands of taels of silver saved at home, and they just happened to lose money in gambling, so they wanted to rob him."
She didn't say anything else, just asked Lin Miao to be more careful in the future.
Hunter Zheng was summoned by the county magistrate and he was very scared.
The county magistrate was somewhat suspicious of Zheng the Hunter. How could such a coincidence be possible?
When the yamen runner hit him with the killing stick, his heart jumped, but he remained calm.
County magistrate: This hunter has a deep mind.
After several inquiries, Hunter Zheng insisted that he was just bragging about the capable man in his village and that he had no ill intentions and that he really did not mean it.
The county magistrate had his suspicions in his mind, but he had no evidence and the victim had not said anything. He thought it was better to have less trouble than more. The four robbers were badly injured and it would not be worthwhile to put them in jail. Since they had not succeeded in stealing and had not hurt anyone, he just beat them up, fined them, and released them.
Hunter Zheng walked out of the county government office with a gloomy face, his eyes becoming more vicious: This Lin is a jinx who got me into government office. What will others say if they find out?
Lin Miao also made up her mind and did not go to get the news, but her face was full of gratitude towards Li Zheng's wife: "Sister, you are still the most fair."
She also gave her the facial balm she bought in the county: "Sister, you have helped me so much. I am so grateful. I hope we can visit each other often in the future. If I don't understand something in the future, I will need your advice."
I took the things that the village head's wife liked, and planned to give them to my own daughter when I have time.
He quickly replied, "Sister, if you have any questions, just come and ask me. I'm grateful for the good things I've given you. Let's visit each other often in the future. We still have a long way to go."
The two men sat in the main room, eating melon seeds, chatting and occasionally making some commercial boasts.
Although Lin Miao is not a person who is good at socializing, she has experience in the workplace and is able to make friends.
If it weren't for the work to do at home, the headman's wife felt that she could stay all day.
Lin Miao saw the headman's wife off and the smile disappeared from her face when she turned around.
How can one brag about someone else's home and clearly state where they live?
Although Lin Miao was certain in her heart, she did not want to wrongly accuse anyone, so she followed Zheng the Hunter several times. Not only did she confirm that the incident was indeed true, but she also heard a big secret.
Although he had offended the hunter Zheng, he did not have any deep hatred against her so much that he wanted to kill her.
Moreover, the man's eyes were full of malice. She had been paying attention to him for several days, but she didn't expect him to be so vicious.
If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. If you are really watched by a poisonous snake, you will get the truth one day. A thief can only be a thief for a thousand days, but you can never be on guard against thieves for a thousand days.
Winter is about to come, and everyone is storing food and firewood. There are plenty of opportunities, but you will have to pay for what you have done.
Lin Miao didn't tell anyone that he got up early every day and strolled around the mountain, looking for opportunities. As a hunter, Zheng would definitely go into the mountain once before winter.
Hard work pays off!
Lin Miao didn't wait for a few days before she found out that Hunter Zheng had set off with a backpack and his hunting weapons.
She followed him from a distance. Her space was fully stocked with items, so she didn't need to prepare anything.
On the way, I met a villager who greeted me: "Sister Wang, you are going into the mountains, why don't you bring anything with you?"
Lin Miao smiled and said, "I won't go into the mountain. It's getting cold. Women like us can't stand it. I'll just pick up some firewood on the mountainside and take it back."
While talking, Lin Miao looked at Zheng the Hunter again, but he had disappeared.
Lin Miao was not in a hurry. She strolled in slowly. When she reached a place with fewer people, she spread her legs and followed the traces of people.
Around noon, Lin Miao finally found the trace of Zheng the Hunter.
This was the critical moment for Zheng the Hunter.
This place is still some distance away from the deep mountains, but for some unknown reason, a wild boar ran down the mountain. The boar was injured by someone and had a wound on its leg, so its fighting power was not very strong.
Hunter Zheng was extremely happy. No matter who hurt the wild boar, it was his luck that he encountered it.
Now, we can have a better winter at home.
There is still enough money at home, so the wild boar can be made into bacon and eaten slowly during the winter.
Whenever he thought of money, he thought of Lin Miaofa's wealth, and he was filled with hatred.
The last time he went to the next town to do some business, he happened to run into those gamblers and bullies in a roadside teahouse. These guys were notoriously cruel and ruthless.
He suddenly had an evil idea and came up with a plan. He deliberately exaggerated the story of Lin's wealth and boasted about it to the teahouse owner.
At that time, he deliberately described everything about his village in detail, and as expected, those people really came.
It's a pity that those losers not only failed to rob the people in Old Wang's family, but also went to the county government office to bite him. I don't know how they knew that his surname was Zheng.
Fortunately, he was smart and just said that he didn't know these people. He didn't know how they heard his words and had bad intentions.
Even if the incident was caused by him, he didn't know the bullies, so how could he prove that he did it on purpose? Humph.
Everything is so coincidental, so what if they are suspicious? Thinking of this, Zheng the Hunter felt a little complacent.
Lin Miao looked at Zheng the Hunter and thought that he was really capable, but it was a pity that he had evil intentions, so she couldn't blame him for that.
She held a sharp stone in her hand, and when the opportunity arose, she threw it at Zheng the Hunter's head.
Hunter Zheng was just feeling proud that he could knock down the wild boar soon, but he was hit on the back of his head without paying attention.
He just felt a sudden shock in his heart and secretly felt a little regretful. He felt a little uneasy when he went out today.
When he came out, he saw Lin following him from a distance and thought she wanted to deal with him. But later, when he saw that this woman was talking to the women in the village and didn't leave, he felt relieved. It seemed that he had been relieved too early.
He wanted to turn around to see if Lin had attacked him, but unfortunately, he didn't have the chance to turn around. The wild boar was already on the verge of getting angry. He couldn't miss this opportunity and pounced on him fiercely...
