Chapter 180 What good people cannot do!

Everyone was eating and talking, and the wine bowls were full. After a few mouthfuls, the atmosphere became more and more lively.

Mr. Ye is a qualified "breeder". Jiayin finished chewing the ribs and meatballs, and his tired little teeth were sore.

Mr. Ye helped her pick a bowl of meat and filled her with a few spoons of soup, feeding Jiayin until her belly was round.

I have to say that Tao Hongying’s craftsmanship is so good.

Whether they are distinguished guests or everyone in the village, they are full of praise for the food.

 Everyone was more than half full before frequently picking up their wine bowls.

Mr. Liu formally thanked the village chief and the Li family and asked them to take good care of his niece in the future.

Although they are not related by blood, he is as close as a brother to the deceased Grand Scholar Cui. He only left one daughter, and he must protect her no matter what.

 Otherwise, he will be under the sun and unable to explain to his brothers.

Everyone naturally responded, and Li Laoer even said, "My Jiaren became a disciple of Mr. Wen, and inherited the mantle of Grand Scholar Cui. Mrs. Cui is the only daughter of the Grand Scholar. Jiaren will naturally support Mrs. Cui until she grows old."

"Similarly, our brothers also treat Mrs. Cui as a biological sister. Even if our family is just an ordinary farmer with no power, we will never let Mrs. Cui be wronged."

Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Li have both had dinner and are sitting next to each other listening to others talk.

Mrs. Cui couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes. Mrs. Li patted her hand and said angrily, "Why are you crying? This is all right."

Even Jiayin climbed down from Mr. Ye's lap, ran to hug Mrs. Cui's thigh, and shouted: "When I grow up, I will support my aunt!"

Mrs. Cui bent down and hugged her, smiled and kissed her, "Okay, Senior Sister is waiting for you to take care of her in old age."

Everyone laughed. Mr. Liu and his son raised their wine bowls and paid tribute to the Li family and all the young and old men in the village.

The villagers were all flattered and drank their wine bowls one after another.

One party is willing to get close to the other party, and the other party feels honored. It is a good thing if two people's interests are combined into one, and the atmosphere in the courtyard will be more harmonious.

Two more wine jars were opened, and everyone became more and more happy as they drank.

Someone asked about the barbarians in Jiangbei. Mr. Ye picked up what he could and said a few words.

Everyone was frightened. Fortunately, they fought their way out of the mountains and came to the south of the Yangtze River. Otherwise, they would have been fed by the barbarians by now.

Mr. Ye said, "For the time being, we can only settle in a corner. When the country becomes strong, there will be a day when we can kill the barbarians and recapture the rivers and mountains."

 Everyone nodded, raised their bowls and shouted, "Kill the barbarians and seize the rivers and mountains!"

Mr. Guo also took the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

Mr. Liu was afraid that his body would not be able to bear it, so he persuaded him in a low voice, "Brother Guo, even if you are happy, just drink a few sips less. There will be another chance in the future."

Mr. Guo smiled bitterly and nodded, but the wine bowl in front of him was still picked up frequently.

Mr. Liu thought he had seen the Li family's children and grandchildren, and felt uncomfortable, so he simply refused to persuade him.

 Guo Qing, on the other hand, didn't drink a sip of wine, and his eyes were rolling around, as if he had some calculations.

When the sun set in the west, the banquet was over, and everyone was a little drunk.

The two Li Zheng said goodbye and left first. The younger generation of their family drove the bullock cart, so there was no need to worry about it. Immediately afterwards, Mr. Zhou took his subordinates and left. Mr. Wen took Li Laoer to the door.

Li Laoer specially took a small bag of silver and said, "Master Zhou, this is Young Master Yan's wages. I should have given it to him personally, but we couldn't find him, so we had to ask Master Zhou to do it for us."

Mr. Zhou hesitated for a moment, then accepted the money and said with a smile, "My wife will be very happy when she sees the money my brother has earned through his own abilities."

Every family has a difficult time reciting sutras. Neither Mr. Wen nor Li Laoer could persuade them, so they only said, "Sir, you will definitely bring your family members to play with you in the future."

Mr. Zhou happily agreed and then left.

The villagers were busy clearing away the tables and chairs, and in the blink of an eye the yard returned to its original state.

 Because there were still guests who had not left, everyone sat against the wall, chatting while sobering up.

 In the room, Mr. Liu also wanted to go back, but Mr. Guo didn't get up, so he could only accompany him.

Mr. Guo was so drunk that he could hardly find his mouth when carrying the tea bowl.

This look was really out of character, so Mr. Liu advised: "Brother Guo, let's go back? Age is not forgiving. I'm so drunk that I won't be able to recover without those two days."

Mr. Guo didn’t wait to speak, but Guo Qing spoke first.

"Mr. Liu, please stop getting involved. We still have something to say and things to clear up, so of course we can't leave. You are helping to expel people, but you are complicit in it."

 Collaborating with others?

Mr. Liu turned cold at that time and scolded: "What are these words? Aren't you here to congratulate me today, but to cause trouble?"

Guo Qing raised his chin proudly, "We are not looking for trouble, we are asking for justice!"

These words made everyone frown, and the village chief tightened his grip on the pipe pot at that time, "Well, we would like to hear it. You ate our food and wine, stood on our territory, suddenly fell out, and begged us again. What justice!”

Guo Qing glanced at his uncle and saw that he was silent. This was a tacit approval of him to be a pioneer, so he started shouting louder and louder.

"Of course I'm talking about how my brothers, sisters-in-law, and nephews died? You said that bandits killed them, but why are the books they brought with you here? And you are a bunch of mud-legged people who can't even eat and fled here. Come on, where did you get the money to build this hot spring resort? I can't tell you, you just wanted to kill my brother and the others!"

"You fart!" The village chief was so angry that he jumped up and waved the pipe pot in his hand vigorously. "It was obviously a bandit who killed someone, but we helped bury him! Good intentions are not rewarded, and now you will bite me back! If I had known it, Just leave your family alone and let the wolves eat the corpse!"

  Li Laoer, Li Laosi, and the first few escorts Liu all had dark faces. They originally thought that the Guo family's matter had ended successfully, but they didn't expect that they did bad things with good intentions, but they turned out to be murderers!

Mr. Wen was silent and Mrs. Cui was trembling with anger.

Jiayin stopped nibbling the osmanthus candy in her hand and looked at Guo Qing with great disgust in her heart.

 Due to the silence during this period, she thought she was too preoccupied that day.

I didn’t expect that these two men actually considered their entire village to be their enemies!

 Everyone outside the door heard the commotion and gathered at the door. Everyone was angry.

 Guo Qing didn't expect that everyone would be so united and was shocked, but the words had already been spoken and it was too late to regret it, not to mention that he had other plans.

So he raised his voice even more and kept yelling.

"What's going on, you guys have been exposed and your evil deeds are exposed, and you still want to kill people and silence them? Let me tell you, I have many friends in the government office. I have made arrangements in advance. When the sun sets, if you don't see me, they will come to arrest you. condemn."

Li Laosi stared at him coldly, "Do you think we are scared? Let me ask you, you said that we killed the Guo family, what evidence do you have? If you can't tell me, I will offload you. A big head is worth a life!"
