country small landowner

"Xu Da, talk to Li Zhengsheng about this matter, and see how to solve it."

After Xu Jibai finished speaking, Xu Da told the story of the incident, and naturally concealed the incident of Tao Er's visit.

A few people kept watch until dawn, and the fire finally went down. There was no need to think about the greenhouse, the rest was basically a pile of ashes, and the two tile-roofed houses could still look like half of them, but they were uninhabitable.

"Young Master Xu, if you want us to talk about it, it doesn't necessarily mean that someone set the fire on purpose. You see, the weather here is dry, and sometimes it can be caught anywhere. Look at this..."

After all, Xu Jibai and Xu Da and Xu Fa are not from the village. If someone really set fire to it, it must be a family in the village who was jealous of the richness of the people and was confused for a while.Even so, after all there was no life lawsuit, Li Zheng naturally turned to the villagers.After finding out who it was, the village naturally has rules to deal with him, but in front of outsiders, that is something that cannot be admitted.

After all, Xu Jibai had never lived in the country, and he didn't understand how the country people lived, so it was hard to argue.

Qi Bao patted Xu Jibai on the back and motioned him to go aside, "If you want me to say it, what Uncle Lizheng said is right, it's not like we don't have piles of dry firewood because of the weather." Hearing Qi Bao say that, Li was busy nodding in agreement.

"However," Qi Bao changed the subject, "I remember that the firewood pile in Li's house looked like Chen Chai that had been used for years. It was real, and we didn't have much to say when it was like that. But we are Green house, all the vegetables are grown in the house, watered all day long, the floor and walls are all wet, if we can still keep it up like this, I am afraid that in the future in our village, we will not be able to arrange only two night watchers, Ten or eight may not be enough.”

Li Zheng was so choked by him that he couldn't speak, seeing that Qi Bao was partial to outsiders, Li Zheng had a clear heart, but he had to keep nodding his head in agreement.

Qi Bao gave a deep salute to the old people, "I am also from our Daliushu Village. Since my father's time, our branch of the Qi family has moved here. My grandma is a native brother of Daliushu Village. Son, I don’t know which one. I am naturally a member of our Daliushu Village, but now that something like this happened, let’s not say whether Xu Jibai is from our place or not, even if he is an outsider, we can’t Seeing people suffer losses is not it, or a few uncles and uncles would not be able to toss around in the middle of the night to help the empress."

Qi Bao sighed, "It's not that I, Qi Bao, are biased. If this thing happened to an outsider now, it might happen to us tomorrow. Among other things, several uncles and uncles have also heard about that Lin Er fool in the neighboring county. Well, isn’t he just addicted to lighting, and he will burn himself to death by ordering this one today and that one tomorrow. In their village, how many people have been ruined by him, and one of them is waiting for him. The married brother was burned to death by him."

There were expressions of sorrow on the faces of several people, and Qi Bao continued, "If this matter is not resolved, is there a Lin Er fool in our village? Lizheng, we are talking here, and I am not the kind of alarmist. My second cousin from the Tao family came to our house yesterday, talking and spraying shit, thinking how to defraud our family of money, I think the fire in our house has nothing to do with him, now I am Qi Bao Let’s also learn from the righteous killing of relatives, and put out the matter of my second cousin Tao, let’s all see if there are others, so we can investigate carefully.”

Everyone was concerned, Qi Bao smiled and said: "Maybe I may be wrong, but it is always right to be careful, what do you think?"

Qi Bao has already said everything, and everyone really thinks what he said is reasonable. Didn't that Lin Er fool keep talking when he was arrested? It's very itchy, isn't it purely sick?If there is such a person in their village, it will be really hard to live on.

"Several uncles are old, but they still ran over to our house in the middle of the night to help. Qi Bao is very grateful. The house is really messy today, and it is not convenient to entertain. When the busy work here is over another day, we will I want to invite my uncles and uncles to have a few drinks together."

Although Qi Bao is not very old, he is very capable in speaking and doing things, and a few words make the hearts of several people very ironic.No one is short of the one or two meals, the main reason is that the intention is not right.

Several elders left one after another, Qi Bao called Li Zheng, "I really don't want to pursue this matter, but Ji Bai came from Shangjing, and although his family is not very rich, it is also very rich. Assets are not short of these few dollars. But this time it almost hurt someone. There is also a pregnant woman in our family who was frightened and sent to the doctor. I don’t know what happened! Our brother in the family is not easy. Pregnancy, now there is one, which one is not precious, and now encountering such a thing, it really damages the reputation of our village."

"That's exactly what's going on. I'll go to Tao Er's house first, so there's no misunderstanding. After all, you are relatives. Don't hurt your friendship because of this."

Qi Bao hurriedly said yes, "Laurie is here."

"It should be, it should be."

After exchanging pleasantries, Li was leaving. Xu Shui, Tao Yong, Xu Da and Taozi all rolled up their sleeves. They were all used to the job, and they didn't need to be arranged at all.

Qi Bao and Xu Jibai were watching, but he couldn't help, so he went home first.

After walking for a while, Qi Bao wanted to see how Xiyun was doing.Thanks to Xu Miao's pregnancy, Qi Bao is not so afraid of a pregnant man now, and is even willing to put his ear on Xu Miao's belly and listen to the sound of children kicking their feet, although in fact there is nothing at all now. can not hear.

When Qi Bao and Xu Jibai arrived at the doctor's house, Aunt Zhou and the others had already returned to Qi's house.The house over the conservatory is no longer designated to live in, so the two brothers Xu Da and Xu Fa and their elder brother will naturally have to live back.

Qi Bao asked the doctor about Xiyun's physical condition for a long time, and asked if there were any taboos, whether the baby would be affected by inhaling dust, etc.Until the doctor got annoyed by him, he grabbed the collar and threw him out.Qi Bao looked at the old doctor sadly, didn't he just ask a few more questions, as for being so excited, I won't laugh at your incompetence in medicine.

Xu Jibai smiled and comforted, "Let's go home quickly, and you can rest assured after seeing Xiyun."

Qi Bao nodded, that's right.

Xu Fa's family smoked a lot, but it didn't have any effect on the child, but the adult hurt the lungs, and the medicine was three-point poisonous, not to mention it was the critical period of pregnant with the child, so the doctor only prescribed a few medicines for nourishing the lungs. The only thing is to take care of your body and you will be fine.

When Qi Bao and the others arrived home, Xu Fa was taking care of his elder brother and his son who occasionally made mischief in his grandma's stomach.When they came back, they came to ask about the results.

"I don't have any letter. Li is talking about investigation and investigation, and I'm waiting to hear it." Qi Bao said nonchalantly. Anyway, it's a blessing among misfortunes that the family is fine.

Lizheng arrived at Tao Er's house. Tao Er was sleeping at home, and he didn't know what he did last night. Anyway, he stayed up all night.

This Tao Er has always been a smart kid, and Zhang Xiucai from the private school in the village often praised him, but he didn't know that it had changed even more in the past two years.

Tao Er's grandma, Li Xing, is a very troublesome person. He made a pottery handle into obedience, and even sold his own brother, Qi Bao's grandma, to an old man who just died. .Fortunately, Father Qi came to help later, otherwise Qi Bao would have had nothing to do.

Li Zheng asked for a long time, Li Xing was messing around, Tao Er also refused to admit what he said, but a discerning person could understand what was going on with that attitude.

Li Zheng couldn't do anything with these two, but he was able to frighten Tao Shan.

Tao Handle has been taught by Li Xing to be docile all these years, he is very timid, and he is becoming less and less like a man.A few words from Lizheng scared the shit out of this guy, and he knelt on the ground begging Lizheng to save his son.

Tao Bing explained the matter back and forth, and Lizheng asked Zhang Xiucai to write a confession and asked Tao Bing to press his fingerprints, and then he took the "evidence" to hand over the work.

Qi Bao didn't expect Lizheng to finish the matter so quickly. He looked carefully at Tao Shan's confession. The time, place, and characters were all written. It wasn't a fake. It seems that Tao Er really did it. .Qi Bao snorted coldly in his heart.

After Qi Bao accepted the certificate, Li Zhengcai said again: "It turns out that arson is a serious crime, and I can't deal with it lightly. This Tao Qiang is a relative of your family. After all, it's a family matter. It's up to you Make up your own mind."

Qi Bao nodded, "It's really a shame to bother you to help investigate our own family's affairs! However, I have already broken ties with the Tao family before, and Li Zheng was also present at the time. Since you have already investigated What's going on, I think it's better for you to make a decision on this matter."

Qi Bao threw the problem back to Lizheng, he would not do such an offending thing, and Lizheng couldn't bully him when he was young, just give him such a hot potato.

The villagers have their own set of methods to solve problems, which are big and small, and such things as sending officials off have almost never happened.The matter of arson this time is really not small, but it is not something Qi Bao can do.

Can't send officials, otherwise the village won't be able to stay, and can't be tolerated, otherwise, if something happens to someone's family, who will bear the responsibility?

Qi Bao is very good at it, such a difficult problem is naturally better left to Li Zheng.

Now that you have done Li Zheng, you can't be afraid of offending people, otherwise why would the villagers choose you?
