Chapter 37 Anti-General Army

At this moment, Tang Ning had already entered the official road. There were still quite a few people on the official road in the early morning. Most of them were heading towards the county town.

Tangning was afraid that a little girl like herself would attract the attention of others, so she immediately rushed to the other side of the hillside, nimbly walking through the woods, and soon arrived at the place she had agreed with Du Chunyue, and found a safe tall tree to climb up , adjusted his posture, took out a bun comfortably and gnawed it slowly, thinking about when Du Chunyue would show up.

At this time, the village was still raging. Not only was the fire in Tao’s house not extinguished, but it was burning more and more fiercely. After being rescued, although the house was burned down, the people and wealth were still there, and no harm was done to other families.

The villagers who fought against the fire all night were exhausted, and they were so smoked that they couldn't see their true colors. They even had to spend money to wash their faces, but it made the big guy feel bad. Look at the eyes of the Tao family Then some bad.

The village chief took the lead in scolding: "Last night, you were asked to buy water to put out the fire, but you didn't agree. If you agreed earlier, it would only cost a few tens of pennies. It wouldn't burn down to the point where there is no room to live in, and everyone would be tired all the time." All night!"

"Village chief, that's a few tens of pennies! You said it lightly, whose money was blown by the strong wind, how could it be so ruined!" The man of the Tao family cried out distressedly. Water can solve it. If the money is spent and the goods are not extinguished, wouldn't his loss be even greater.

The village chief fell on his back in anger, and waved his hands angrily, "Forget it, I won't tell you anymore, anyway, it's not me who has no place to live!"

Aunt Tao saw that the village chief didn't intend to control them, and she howled, "Village chief, you have to make the decision for us! My stove house was turned off before the sun went down, but we didn't stop until it was dark. If the stove We shall be sure to find out at once about the fire caused by the sparks in the house, which must have started while we were asleep!"

She has been complained by the whole family since last night, and she couldn't figure it out. After struggling all night, she became more and more sure that the fire had nothing to do with her.

"Fart! If you suspect that the fire was not started by yourself, it was set by someone else. Tell me who came to your house to set fire for no reason? They have no grudges or enmity with you. What are you trying to do? Besides, we rushed over last night You opened the door yourself! Did you find someone came to your house?"

The village chief's questioning made Aunt Tao speechless. If she had evidence, why would she argue with the village chief? But thinking of the shameful things the two of them did yesterday, she became suspicious and couldn't help but say, "I There is no evidence, but who knows, there is no evidence, and everyone who lives near our house is suspected!"

"Heh! Tao Cuihua, you have to speak conscientiously when you speak. It's really bad luck for eight lifetimes to be your neighbor!" Xu, who lived on the other side of Tao's house, quit, and rolled up his sleeves to fight Tao Cuihua.

Everyone hurried forward to persuade them to fight.

After being busy, Tao Cuihua explained fearfully: "I didn't mention your house, isn't there someone living next door?"

Everyone followed her gaze, it was the Du family.

Mrs. Xu became even more angry, "I said you are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong! Even if there is only one girl left in the Du family, Chunyue, I can't let you put all the shit on people's heads!"

"That's right. Didn't you lend Chunyue girl twenty Wen? That's a good boy who knows how to be grateful. How could he repay his kindness with revenge!" A woman with some conscience followed suit.

At this moment, Du Chunyue suddenly rushed into the crowd with red eyes, knelt down to Tao Cuihua with a plop, and begged pitifully: "Aunt Tao, thank you for lending me twenty Wen, but I also returned the money to you yesterday. It's just that I failed to give you any interest, so you can't slander me just because of this! Heaven and Earth conscience, if I come to your house to set fire to it, I will die a terrible death!"

Du Chunyue swears so hard that the villagers never doubted her, and now they don't think she set the fire of the Tao family.

Mrs. Xu stepped forward and pulled Du Chunyue up, and said forcefully: "We all believe in you, Tao Cuihua is in a hurry, so the dog can't spit out ivory!"

"You..." Tao Cuihua was so angry that she pointed at Xu and Du Chunyue and was speechless for a long time.

The village head looked at the Tao family with dissatisfaction, frowned and said: "You lend money to Miss Chunyue and you still need to pay interest? How do you calculate it?"

Such a good thing was not hidden from him!
The Tao family couple broke out in a cold sweat and shook their heads again and again.

Du Chunyue just explained for them in a timely manner: "Aunt Tao confiscated my interest, which means that it is difficult for everyone. If I can't pay back the Wen after three days, I will count the interest with me. Otherwise, she won't be able to explain to Uncle Tao. It's justifiable, I can understand it, but fortunately, I went to the county town yesterday to sell the leftover herbs at home, and managed to scrape together twenty coins to return to Aunt Tao.

But because the house was attacked by thieves after leaving the house, I was going to report to the police yesterday, but it was delayed when it was getting late. I just passed by now. If Aunt Tao suspects that the fire was set by others, you can come with me Go to the city to report to the official, we also have a companion. "

When the Tao family heard that Du Chunyue was going to report to the government, their faces immediately changed.

Tao Cuihua was even more direct, and snorted angrily: "Why should you apply for an official? Being an official is so idle! You can take care of anything! Since the village chief can't take care of it, we just think we are unlucky, but the house is gone. The village chief must find us a place to stay!"

Tao Cuihua quickly changed the subject.

The village chief also became suspicious when he saw the reaction of the two couples, but he had no evidence, and what he said was useless, and he might cause a commotion. In addition, this kind of thing would have a bad impact on the village, so the village chief glared. She glanced at Tao Cuihua, turned around and said to Du Chunyue, "Girl Chunyue, what Aunt Tao said is not unreasonable. Although your house was burglarized, you haven't lost any valuables, have you?"

Du Chunyue retorted: "Yes."

Everyone was surprised, and even the village chief frowned.

"The piece of floral cloth that was kept at home is gone, and the few leathers left by my elder brother are also lost. The most important thing is that the little food left at home has been stolen. I haven't eaten for a whole day, woo woo woo "Du Chunyue wiped her eyes and cried loudly.

Everyone was heartbroken.

Mrs. Xu even yelled, "It's hard enough for this girl to suffer a thousand knives. She even steals what she has left! She really won't let people live! No, this matter must be reported to the authorities, otherwise everyone will It is possible to meet this thief!"

The faces of the Tao family and his wife were also very ugly. They took a few pieces of leather from the Du family, but they didn't take any calico at all, and they didn't empty out the grain. Even the beans couldn't get into their eyes, but they couldn't say anything about it. It proves that they stole the Du family's things.
