Chapter 127
"Okay! As long as you steal the contract of sale to me, I will give you 100 taels of silver." Meng Fuling said generously.
"Really? That's great, I'll go right away!" The old man Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard that he could get 100 taels of silver by stealing the deed.
Without saying a word, he was about to run home, but Meng Fuling stopped in time, "Wait!"
"Auntie, what other orders do you have?" Old man Cheng laughed like a dog. To him, whoever gave him money was his uncle or auntie.
Meng Fuling even had the feeling that as long as he threw a bone, he would run over to pick it up.
"Come in with me!" She dropped the words and walked towards the door first.
"I, I—" Old Man Cheng was so overjoyed that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
"Miss, why did you let him in?" Zhuxiang couldn't help asking Meng Fuling in a low voice.
Although she didn't know much about Lingyun Village when she just arrived, she could see that Old Man Cheng was not a good guy, so she couldn't figure out why Meng Fuling was still willing to let him in. Isn't this leading the wolf into the house?
"What's the rush? I have my own plan." Meng Fuling had a vague sneer on her lips.
Old man Cheng didn't know what Meng Fuling was planning. When he stepped into her house, he was both excited and surprised, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
"Fuling, why did you come back? Have you eaten yet? I left some for you—" When Xue heard that Meng Fuling had returned, she immediately put aside what she was doing and came up to meet her.
In the middle of her chanting, she saw Old Man Cheng following behind Meng Fuling, and the rest of the words were stuck in her throat.
"Sister Xue, ha ha." Compared to Xue Shi's surprise, Old Man Cheng was extremely shameless, greeted her with a smile, and stared at her.
Old man Cheng kept staring at Mrs. Xue, which made Meng Fuling very uncomfortable, and threatened him viciously, "Look again, not only will I not give you any money, but I will also dig out your eyeballs."
"I won't watch it, I won't watch it!" Old Man Cheng covered his eyes and shook his head hastily.
Meng Fuling told Zhuxiang to look at Old Man Cheng, then turned around and went to the study.
Xue Shi followed and asked her what was going on.
"Mother, don't ask, you will know when the time comes."
Xue Shi secretly sighed, Meng Fuling never told her anything, it must be because she thinks she is too useless.
Meng Fuling didn't notice that Xue's expression had become gloomy, so she took out a few pieces of paper and wrote a contract of selling herself.
She has been in ancient times for a long time, because she thought that her business was expanding day by day, so she practiced calligraphy whenever she had time, and now her handwriting looks better and better.
Even so, it took a while to write the deed of sale.He took another 100 taels of silver and prepared to give it to Old Man Cheng.
Xue looked at it for a while, but she didn't know what Meng Fuling was doing. When Meng Fuling took out the money, she was startled, "Fuling, wait a minute! Could the money be for Old Man Cheng?"
"Yes, it's for him." Meng Fuling nodded with a smile, seeing Xue's pained face, she didn't explain.
When Meng Fuling put the money in front of old man Cheng, he was so happy that he reached out for the money.
"You have to sign a receipt before you can take the money away." Meng Fuling moved the money away before he touched it.
"What? You still need to sign a receipt?" Old man Cheng was still happy that he could get money without having to take the deed of sale. Unexpectedly, Meng Fuling would ask him to sign the receipt.
"No? Then you go!" Seeing old man Cheng's hesitation, Meng Fuling immediately turned cold.
"No, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't read and can't sign." Old Man Cheng laughed dryly.
"It's okay, just press a fingerprint." Meng Fuling had thought of this a long time ago.
"Where do I press it?" As long as you press a finger print, you can get 100 taels of silver, and Old Man Cheng is very happy.
Seeing Meng Fuling pointing to the lower right corner of the paper, he pressed it without hesitation.
Seeing old man Cheng carrying the money happily and leaving, Meng Fuling went to a place where there was no one else, recruited a shadow guard, and gave them detailed instructions.
In less than half an hour, the shadow guard came back and brought some papers to Meng Fuling.
Meng Fuling took the papers, then walked into the room, and said to Zhuxiang, "Let Zhao Cheng take the carriage, I want to go to the tooth shop."
"Yes!" Zhuxiang saw the content of the so-called receipt just now, and it was the old man Cheng who sold his wife and children to the dental shop as the head of the family. Now, she admires Meng Fuling even more.
Meng Fuling sneered in her heart as she held the paper that was clearly a receipt but was actually a contract of prostitution in her hand.With old man Cheng's IQ, he couldn't fabricate the sale of the deed to swindle her money. It might be true as he said, and the couple had a quarrel over it.
In short, the deed of sale must be fake. If Mrs. Zhu really had the deed of sale, she would have taken it out a long time ago. Why wait until now?Clearly relying on her son's return, she had greater ambitions.
Mrs. Zhu suffered so many losses at her hands, yet dared to make a fake contract of prostitution to plot against her. Do you really think she is stupid?
No matter what their purpose was, old man Cheng's visit gave her a chance to get rid of their family.
******
The next day, Meng Fuling didn't go anywhere, but just played with the little wax gourd at home.
Just finished breakfast.Li Shanhu came running over, "Fu Ling, Mr. Sun told you to go to Cheng's house."
Meng Fuling was not surprised by this at all, and said with a smile, "Why are you here to report the letter?"
"I'm going to the workshop, and I happened to be passing by." It's obviously not the same way, how could Li Shanhu happen to be passing by?She saw that the villagers were all running to Cheng's house, and she followed to see it because she was afraid that something related to Meng Fuling would be caused.
Seeing that she was there, Mr. Sun asked her to call Meng Fuling.However, she didn't notice the meaning of Meng Fuling's words, and she was clearly not surprised.
"What happened?" Meng Fuling remembered that she should ask this question, and it was quite normal.
Li Shanhu didn't feel that something was wrong, and told Meng Fuling the whole story in an annoyed tone.
"The Cheng family is really shameless. Old man Cheng went to the tooth shop for 100 taels of silver, sold his wife and children, and even signed the deed of sale. Now the people from the tooth shop come to arrest people, and their family refuses to accept it. Shi also took out a piece of paper, saying it was your deed of sale, and wanted you to use money to redeem them."
The more Li Shanhu spoke, the angrier she became, but Meng Fuling acted as if she had nothing to do with herself, and laughed as she listened.
"Hey, I said Fuling, what time is it, how can you still laugh?" The emperor was not in a hurry for the eunuchs, Li Shanhu saw that Meng Fuling was not worried at all, and was extremely anxious.
"The Cheng family is going to be in bad luck, don't you want me to laugh?" Meng Fuling smiled even wider.
"But Mrs. Zhu is still holding your contract of sale, even if you are asked to redeem them, you can't do anything." Li Shanhu especially wanted to pry Meng Fuling's mind open to see what she was thinking. That's not the normal reaction.
Li Shanhu was so anxious, Meng Fuling couldn't bear to tease her anymore, and asked with a smile, "How do you know that Mrs. Zhu has my contract of prostitution?"
"There are fingerprints on it, so can the fingerprints be faked?" Li Shanhu asked puzzled.
"If she had my contract of prostitution, she would have taken it out a long time ago, so why wait until now?" Meng Fuling thought to herself that Li Shanhu was still too naive.
Not only Li Shanhu, I am afraid that the villagers think things are relatively simple. Zhu's method may be successful if used on other villagers, but she is not an ignorant villager, so she is not so easy to fool.
Li Shanhu thought about it for a while, and felt that Meng Fuling's words made sense, and felt relieved a lot.
"You people who have been paid a thousand dollars have taken so much advantage from that bitch Meng Fuling before you come to abuse our family..."
Meng Fuling hadn't reached the Cheng's house when she heard Zhu's voice that sounded like mourning from a long distance away, and she felt her scalp tingling because she was crying too exaggeratedly.
When he got closer, he saw old man Cheng and Cheng Jiabao, each being held by two tall and strong men. Old man Cheng had something stuffed in his mouth, and he couldn't even speak.
Mrs. Zhu was hugging the legs of a woman in her forties and fifties, with disheveled hair, she was no different from a crazy woman.
The woman whose leg was held by Mrs. Zhu was Yamao Xu. Last night, Meng Fuling went to the dental shop to find her and gave her a sum of money, which is why today's incident happened.
"Fart! Since you've sold yourself to our dentist, don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Xu has been a matchmaker for many years, what kind of person has she never met?Are you afraid that a vicious village woman will fail?She was also ruthless, kicking Zhu's heart as soon as she lifted her foot.
"Ouch! It's a murder, is there any law!" Mrs. Zhu lost control and was kicked away. In the end, she just lay down on the ground, covering her heart with one hand and beating the ground with the other, crying endlessly.
Mrs. Zhu is totally cheating. She hopes that this will arouse the sympathy of the villagers and help their family.
But the villagers saw how fierce Xu Yapo was, and all the people she brought had vicious faces, so how dare they meddle in their own business?The most important thing is that Mrs. Xu does hold the sale deed, house deed, and land deed of the Zhu family.
She said that old man Cheng sold the family's house and fields, together with his wife and children, to the dental firm for 100 taels of silver.
Moreover, just now because the Cheng family and others refused to admit this matter, Mrs. Xu had someone smash their house and found the 100 taels of silver in their house. Don't drop it.
The village is not yet upright, and all affairs are temporarily handled by several clan elders, and today it is the turn of Grandpa Sun.Now he is also looking sad, this is obviously unreasonable, how can he help the people in his own village?
"It's useless to play this trick with me! Take them away!" Mistress Xu shouted impatiently.
Mrs. Zhu wanted to howl loudly, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Meng Fuling coming, "Meng Fuling, you little bitch!"
She woke up early in the morning, took Cheng Jiabao with her while her wife was still asleep, and was about to go to Meng Fuling's house. As soon as she walked out of the house, a large group of people approached aggressively, which scared her enough.
The leader, Mrs. Xu, kept talking about old man Cheng, but she didn't even give him a chance to speak, so she blocked his mouth.
Mrs. Zhu was not so stupid as to be hopelessly stupid. She didn't know that her husband went to find Meng Fuling behind her back, but she knew that he didn't have the guts to sell their mother and son. Poria, don't think about two people.
"Grandpa Sun, what's the matter that you asked me to come?" Meng Fuling ignored Mrs. Zhu, but walked up to Mrs. Sun, pretending to be puzzled.
When Mr. Sun saw Meng Fuling, it was like seeing a savior. He wished to push everything to her, "Fuling, Mrs. Zhu said that she has your contract of prostitution. Is it true?"
"Whether it's true or not, tell her to take it out, so she'll know?" Meng Fuling said with a smile.
In the eyes of the villagers, she is full of smiles, and she doesn't care what others think.
Mrs. Zhu felt that Meng Fuling's smile was so glaring, she wished she could scratch her face, "Take it, take it, really think I'm afraid of you? If I can get the deed of sale, you have to redeem us, and you have to pay for it." Give us cattle and horses."
As soon as the words "be a cow and a horse" were uttered, there was an uproar in the audience, and most of them couldn't see it.Not to mention that Mrs. Zhu has not yet seen Meng Fuling’s deed of sale, even if there is a deed of sale, Meng Fuling is only one person, and they are the ones who made money by helping Zhu’s and Cheng Jiabao redeem their lives. Poria worked for their family as cattle and horses, thanks to Zhu's ability to speak out.
Li Shanhong said indignantly: "If you and Mrs. Liu really had a deed of sale, why didn't you show it earlier? If there was a deed of sale, why did you fight with Mrs. Liu because she refused to return the money? Don't take out a fake one Sell your life to fool people."
She also heard Meng Fuling say that on the way here, so she felt that Mrs. Zhu was talking nonsense.Obviously, her words attracted the approval of the villagers present, and they all felt that it made sense.
Someone said: "That's right, according to your virtue, if you really have Meng Fuling's contract of prostitution, you would have taken it out as early as when she got rich."
"You, what's the benefit of all of you taking Meng Fuling? Why are you all talking for her? Hmph, dare to say that I didn't sell the deed, let me take it—" Zhu Shi gritted her teeth, and while talking, she took her hand out of her pocket, but After digging around, she found nothing, and she froze instantly.
She was afraid that old man Chen would steal the contract of sale and go to Meng Fuling for money first, so she kept the contract of sale in her pocket all the time, and she didn't even leave her body when she went to bed.She thought the deed of prostitution was always on her body, but when she woke up in the morning, she didn't check to see if it was still there.
But now it's gone, why is it gone?Impossible, impossible, Mrs. Zhu didn't suspect Meng Fuling this time, she thought it was impossible for Meng Fuling to go to her house to steal the deed of prostitution, maybe Meng Fuling didn't know about the deed of prostitution last night.
Only old man Cheng who slept with her on the kang was the most suspicious, and he was indeed too courteous last night. Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Zhu decided that old man Cheng stole the contract of sale.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhu has been unable to get the deed of sale for so long, Mr. Sun made an old face, "Mr. Zhu, don't you want to take Fuling's deed of sale? Why don't you take it out?"
Immediately, someone shouted: "Tch, she must be trying to trick Fu Ling into redeeming them, there is no bond at all."
"After touching it for a long time, I can't even touch a fart. It must be a lie." The villagers said in a hurry.
The words made Zhu's thick skin turn purple, she was mad, and rushed to old man Cheng recklessly, trying to pull out what was in his mouth.
The strong man who was holding old man Cheng received the wink from Mrs. Xu, and immediately let go of old man Cheng, causing him to be thrown to the ground by Mrs. Zhu. Ask for silver."
"Let go, you crazy woman, you obviously hid it yourself, so I can't find it, how can you rely on me?" Old man Cheng was furious, and revealed that he had failed to sell his body.
Last night, while Mrs. Zhu was asleep, he searched all over the house, including her body, but he didn't find Lao Shizi's deed of prostitution.
The old man Cheng was gagged just now, and he was angry at first, but now Mrs. Zhu beat him in public, which made him so angry that he completely forgot to express his doubts about Meng Fuling, so he tore up with Mrs. Zhu. fight.
Meng Fuling thought that old man Cheng would know that he had been fooled by her when he saw the deed of prostitution that he had fingerprinted in Mrs. Xu's hand, and would point her out, but he didn't expect that he was only focused on fighting with Mrs. Zhu now.
Mrs. Xu was also a little dumbfounded, even though she had seen many top-quality products, none of them could compare to this family. Obviously, her own deed of prostitution was in the hands of others, and it seemed that the group was not in a hurry at all. It's embarrassing and ridiculous to have a leisurely fight in public.
"Stop all of you!" Old Man Sun roared angrily, his lips trembled in anger, he felt that there were outsiders around, and the behavior of these two shameless old bastards was really embarrassing to the village.
Some villagers couldn't stand it anymore, so they stepped forward to separate them, but they didn't feel ashamed at all.
After a fight, old man Cheng suddenly remembered Meng Fuling, "Meng Fuling gave me the 100 taels of silver, and she asked me to put my finger on the receipt, but I can't read."
"Next, do you want to say that I took the deed of sale as a receipt, tricked you into pressing your finger prints, and then gave her the deed of sale, and joined forces with her to harm your family?" Meng Fuling looked at Xu at the end of her speech. The matchmaker, pretending not to know her.
"That's right, you must have dug a hole, wait for me to jump." The more old Cheng thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right, and he nodded repeatedly.
"You said I fooled you with the sale deed, what about your house deed and land deed? Is it possible that I can sneak into your house and steal it?" Meng Fuling sneered.
Fortunately, she let the shadow guard go to Cheng's house to steal the house title deed last night, and by the way, she also stole her 'Deed of Sale', and it was obvious at first glance that the deed of sale was fake.
"I, we—" Mrs. Zhu and Old Man Cheng were both dumbfounded, and they couldn't figure out how the land deed got into the hands of Mrs. Xu.
"Stop talking nonsense. Anyway, I don't know this girl. If you are sensible, please follow me." Seeing the impatient look in Meng Fuling's eyes, Mrs. Xu understood, and beckoned a few strong men to arrest her. .
"Fu Ling, we are all from the same village, there will inevitably be some conflicts, you just don't remember the villain's mistakes, don't worry about them, and help them." Grandpa Sun felt that outsiders were under his nose when he saw Mrs. Zhu and the others being caught. Arresting people under the sun would make it seem that the old lady of his clan is useless.
Therefore, he had no choice but to ask Meng Fuling for help, thinking that since she was so rich, a little money leaked through her fingers would be enough to redeem Zhu Shi and the others.
"Mr. Sun, what you said is ridiculous. They slandered me and made up the deed of selling their lives. They want me to work for them. Why do you want me to help them? You also think I have no temper , easy to deal with?" Meng Fuling laughed angrily, mercilessly speaking, and stared at Old Man Sun coldly.
"See clearly who you are talking to!" Grandpa Sun blushed angrily. He never expected that Meng Fuling would not give him any face in front of so many villagers.
"Hmph!" Meng Fuling really didn't bother to pay attention to him, but he was just a bad old man who didn't know the so-called, and really took himself seriously.
But in the eyes of Old Master Sun, her attitude was slapping him in the face. Just as she was about to teach her a lesson, she suddenly said something that made him feel so guilty that he immediately silenced himself.
"Grandpa Sun probably forgot what I gave you on the day my son was washed for the third time. If the villagers know that you are a clan elder, but you were bribed, haha!" Meng Fuling walked up to Master Sun, using only them said the two audible voices.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the Cheng family, and no one noticed that Mr. Sun was so angry with Meng Fuling.
Meng Fuling stopped talking to Mr. Sun. At this time, Mrs. Zhu and Cheng Jiabao had already been taken away by the dental workers, and none of the villagers stepped forward to stop them.
Old Cheng, the only member of the Cheng family who was not caught, sat on the ground blankly, watching his wife and children being taken away. After a long silence, he yelled at Meng Fuling with red eyes: "Meng Fuling, you must die!"
"It's still unknown who will die badly." Meng Fuling raised a smile that didn't understand the meaning, and left after leaving this sentence.
"Meng Fuling, you vicious slut, you will be struck to death by lightning sooner or later!" Old man Cheng cursed and cursed, and then burst into tears.
A villager curled his lips and said, "I know I'm crying now. I was still interested in fighting Mrs. Zhu just now."
Some kind-hearted villagers also persuaded: "Don't cry, don't you still have 100 taels of silver? It's important to find someone to borrow some later to redeem your mother-in-law and children."
Unexpectedly, when the old man Cheng heard that he was asked to lend money to redeem Zhu Shi and Cheng Jiabao, he immediately stopped his tears and said, "What do you know? You can find a wife if you are gone, and you can regenerate a son if you are gone. Crying that the house and land were gone, I got 100 taels of silver."
Come on, after hearing this, the villagers felt that Old Man Cheng was hopeless, and no one wanted to talk to him anymore, so they all dispersed.
******
"Miss, why don't you let Mrs. Xu take the 100 taels of silver?" When she got home, Zhu Xiang couldn't help asking, she also went to Cheng's house with Meng Fuling just now.
She had stayed at the dental shop where Mrs. Xu worked before, and she had seen Mrs. Xu's methods. In the situation like that at that time, with Mrs. Xu's style of handling things, she should have taken away the 100 taels of silver.
But last night when Meng Fuling was in the tooth shop, she specifically told Mrs. Xu to leave the 100 taels of silver. Zhuxiang really didn't understand Meng Fuling's intention.
"There's no need to live too much, anyway, he's useless." Meng Fuling smiled, this matter is not over yet, after tonight, there will be no such person as Old Cheng in the world.
It's not that she is ruthless, but that she understands that she must not be soft-hearted towards the best of the Cheng family. If they had behaved better, what happened today would not have happened. Speaking of which, it was their own fault.
At this time, Meng Fuling didn't know that someone had left the General's Mansion, and was rushing towards Qishan County.
(End of this chapter)
"Okay! As long as you steal the contract of sale to me, I will give you 100 taels of silver." Meng Fuling said generously.
"Really? That's great, I'll go right away!" The old man Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard that he could get 100 taels of silver by stealing the deed.
Without saying a word, he was about to run home, but Meng Fuling stopped in time, "Wait!"
"Auntie, what other orders do you have?" Old man Cheng laughed like a dog. To him, whoever gave him money was his uncle or auntie.
Meng Fuling even had the feeling that as long as he threw a bone, he would run over to pick it up.

"Ouch! It's a murder, is there any law!" Mrs. Zhu lost control and was kicked away. In the end, she just lay down on the ground, covering her heart with one hand and beating the ground with the other, crying endlessly.
Mrs. Zhu is totally cheating. She hopes that this will arouse the sympathy of the villagers and help their family.
But the villagers saw how fierce Xu Yapo was, and all the people she brought had vicious faces, so how dare they meddle in their own business?The most important thing is that Mrs. Xu does hold the sale deed, house deed, and land deed of the Zhu family.
She said that old man Cheng sold the family's house and fields, together with his wife and children, to the dental firm for 100 taels of silver.
Moreover, just now because the Cheng family and others refused to admit this matter, Mrs. Xu had someone smash their house and found the 100 taels of silver in their house. Don't drop it.
The village is not yet upright, and all affairs are temporarily handled by several clan elders, and today it is the turn of Grandpa Sun.Now he is also looking sad, this is obviously unreasonable, how can he help the people in his own village?
"It's useless to play this trick with me! Take them away!" Mistress Xu shouted impatiently.
Mrs. Zhu wanted to howl loudly, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Meng Fuling coming, "Meng Fuling, you little bitch!"
She woke up early in the morning, took Cheng Jiabao with her while her wife was still asleep, and was about to go to Meng Fuling's house. As soon as she walked out of the house, a large group of people approached aggressively, which scared her enough.
The leader, Mrs. Xu, kept talking about old man Cheng, but she didn't even give him a chance to speak, so she blocked his mouth.
Mrs. Zhu was not so stupid as to be hopelessly stupid. She didn't know that her husband went to find Meng Fuling behind her back, but she knew that he didn't have the guts to sell their mother and son. Poria, don't think about two people.
"Grandpa Sun, what's the matter that you asked me to come?" Meng Fuling ignored Mrs. Zhu, but walked up to Mrs. Sun, pretending to be puzzled.
When Mr. Sun saw Meng Fuling, it was like seeing a savior. He wished to push everything to her, "Fuling, Mrs. Zhu said that she has your contract of prostitution. Is it true?"
"Whether it's true or not, tell her to take it out, so she'll know?" Meng Fuling said with a smile.
In the eyes of the villagers, she is full of smiles, and she doesn't care what others think.
Mrs. Zhu felt that Meng Fuling's smile was so glaring, she wished she could scratch her face, "Take it, take it, really think I'm afraid of you? If I can get the deed of sale, you have to redeem us, and you have to pay for it." Give us cattle and horses."
As soon as the words "be a cow and a horse" were uttered, there was an uproar in the audience, and most of them couldn't see it.Not to mention that Mrs. Zhu has not yet seen Meng Fuling’s deed of sale, even if there is a deed of sale, Meng Fuling is only one person, and they are the ones who made money by helping Zhu’s and Cheng Jiabao redeem their lives. Poria worked for their family as cattle and horses, thanks to Zhu's ability to speak out.
Li Shanhong said indignantly: "If you and Mrs. Liu really had a deed of sale, why didn't you show it earlier? If there was a deed of sale, why did you fight with Mrs. Liu because she refused to return the money? Don't take out a fake one Sell your life to fool people."
She also heard Meng Fuling say that on the way here, so she felt that Mrs. Zhu was talking nonsense.Obviously, her words attracted the approval of the villagers present, and they all felt that it made sense.
Someone said: "That's right, according to your virtue, if you really have Meng Fuling's contract of prostitution, you would have taken it out as early as when she got rich."
"You, what's the benefit of all of you taking Meng Fuling? Why are you all talking for her? Hmph, dare to say that I didn't sell the deed, let me take it—" Zhu Shi gritted her teeth, and while talking, she took her hand out of her pocket, but After digging around, she found nothing, and she froze instantly.
She was afraid that old man Chen would steal the contract of sale and go to Meng Fuling for money first, so she kept the contract of sale in her pocket all the time, and she didn't even leave her body when she went to bed.She thought the deed of prostitution was always on her body, but when she woke up in the morning, she didn't check to see if it was still there.
But now it's gone, why is it gone?Impossible, impossible, Mrs. Zhu didn't suspect Meng Fuling this time, she thought it was impossible for Meng Fuling to go to her house to steal the deed of prostitution, maybe Meng Fuling didn't know about the deed of prostitution last night.
Only old man Cheng who slept with her on the kang was the most suspicious, and he was indeed too courteous last night. Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Zhu decided that old man Cheng stole the contract of sale.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhu has been unable to get the deed of sale for so long, Mr. Sun made an old face, "Mr. Zhu, don't you want to take Fuling's deed of sale? Why don't you take it out?"
Immediately, someone shouted: "Tch, she must be trying to trick Fu Ling into redeeming them, there is no bond at all."
"After touching it for a long time, I can't even touch a fart. It must be a lie." The villagers said in a hurry.
The words made Zhu's thick skin turn purple, she was mad, and rushed to old man Cheng recklessly, trying to pull out what was in his mouth.
The strong man who was holding old man Cheng received the wink from Mrs. Xu, and immediately let go of old man Cheng, causing him to be thrown to the ground by Mrs. Zhu. Ask for silver."
"Let go, you crazy woman, you obviously hid it yourself, so I can't find it, how can you rely on me?" Old man Cheng was furious, and revealed that he had failed to sell his body.
Last night, while Mrs. Zhu was asleep, he searched all over the house, including her body, but he didn't find Lao Shizi's deed of prostitution.
The old man Cheng was gagged just now, and he was angry at first, but now Mrs. Zhu beat him in public, which made him so angry that he completely forgot to express his doubts about Meng Fuling, so he tore up with Mrs. Zhu. fight.
Meng Fuling thought that old man Cheng would know that he had been fooled by her when he saw the deed of prostitution that he had fingerprinted in Mrs. Xu's hand, and would point her out, but he didn't expect that he was only focused on fighting with Mrs. Zhu now.
Mrs. Xu was also a little dumbfounded, even though she had seen many top-quality products, none of them could compare to this family. Obviously, her own deed of prostitution was in the hands of others, and it seemed that the group was not in a hurry at all. It's embarrassing and ridiculous to have a leisurely fight in public.
"Stop all of you!" Old Man Sun roared angrily, his lips trembled in anger, he felt that there were outsiders around, and the behavior of these two shameless old bastards was really embarrassing to the village.
Some villagers couldn't stand it anymore, so they stepped forward to separate them, but they didn't feel ashamed at all.
After a fight, old man Cheng suddenly remembered Meng Fuling, "Meng Fuling gave me the 100 taels of silver, and she asked me to put my finger on the receipt, but I can't read."
"Next, do you want to say that I took the deed of sale as a receipt, tricked you into pressing your finger prints, and then gave her the deed of sale, and joined forces with her to harm your family?" Meng Fuling looked at Xu at the end of her speech. The matchmaker, pretending not to know her.
"That's right, you must have dug a hole, wait for me to jump." The more old Cheng thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right, and he nodded repeatedly.
"You said I fooled you with the sale deed, what about your house deed and land deed? Is it possible that I can sneak into your house and steal it?" Meng Fuling sneered.
Fortunately, she let the shadow guard go to Cheng's house to steal the house title deed last night, and by the way, she also stole her 'Deed of Sale', and it was obvious at first glance that the deed of sale was fake.
"I, we—" Mrs. Zhu and Old Man Cheng were both dumbfounded, and they couldn't figure out how the land deed got into the hands of Mrs. Xu.
"Stop talking nonsense. Anyway, I don't know this girl. If you are sensible, please follow me." Seeing the impatient look in Meng Fuling's eyes, Mrs. Xu understood, and beckoned a few strong men to arrest her. .
"Fu Ling, we are all from the same village, there will inevitably be some conflicts, you just don't remember the villain's mistakes, don't worry about them, and help them." Grandpa Sun felt that outsiders were under his nose when he saw Mrs. Zhu and the others being caught. Arresting people under the sun would make it seem that the old lady of his clan is useless.
Therefore, he had no choice but to ask Meng Fuling for help, thinking that since she was so rich, a little money leaked through her fingers would be enough to redeem Zhu Shi and the others.
"Mr. Sun, what you said is ridiculous. They slandered me and made up the deed of selling their lives. They want me to work for them. Why do you want me to help them? You also think I have no temper , easy to deal with?" Meng Fuling laughed angrily, mercilessly speaking, and stared at Old Man Sun coldly.
"See clearly who you are talking to!" Grandpa Sun blushed angrily. He never expected that Meng Fuling would not give him any face in front of so many villagers.
"Hmph!" Meng Fuling really didn't bother to pay attention to him, but he was just a bad old man who didn't know the so-called, and really took himself seriously.
But in the eyes of Old Master Sun, her attitude was slapping him in the face. Just as she was about to teach her a lesson, she suddenly said something that made him feel so guilty that he immediately silenced himself.
"Grandpa Sun probably forgot what I gave you on the day my son was washed for the third time. If the villagers know that you are a clan elder, but you were bribed, haha!" Meng Fuling walked up to Master Sun, using only them said the two audible voices.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the Cheng family, and no one noticed that Mr. Sun was so angry with Meng Fuling.
Meng Fuling stopped talking to Mr. Sun. At this time, Mrs. Zhu and Cheng Jiabao had already been taken away by the dental workers, and none of the villagers stepped forward to stop them.
Old Cheng, the only member of the Cheng family who was not caught, sat on the ground blankly, watching his wife and children being taken away. After a long silence, he yelled at Meng Fuling with red eyes: "Meng Fuling, you must die!"
"It's still unknown who will die badly." Meng Fuling raised a smile that didn't understand the meaning, and left after leaving this sentence.
"Meng Fuling, you vicious slut, you will be struck to death by lightning sooner or later!" Old man Cheng cursed and cursed, and then burst into tears.
A villager curled his lips and said, "I know I'm crying now. I was still interested in fighting Mrs. Zhu just now."
Some kind-hearted villagers also persuaded: "Don't cry, don't you still have 100 taels of silver? It's important to find someone to borrow some later to redeem your mother-in-law and children."
Unexpectedly, when the old man Cheng heard that he was asked to lend money to redeem Zhu Shi and Cheng Jiabao, he immediately stopped his tears and said, "What do you know? You can find a wife if you are gone, and you can regenerate a son if you are gone. Crying that the house and land were gone, I got 100 taels of silver."
Come on, after hearing this, the villagers felt that Old Man Cheng was hopeless, and no one wanted to talk to him anymore, so they all dispersed.
******
"Miss, why don't you let Mrs. Xu take the 100 taels of silver?" When she got home, Zhu Xiang couldn't help asking, she also went to Cheng's house with Meng Fuling just now.
She had stayed at the dental shop where Mrs. Xu worked before, and she had seen Mrs. Xu's methods. In the situation like that at that time, with Mrs. Xu's style of handling things, she should have taken away the 100 taels of silver.
But last night when Meng Fuling was in the tooth shop, she specifically told Mrs. Xu to leave the 100 taels of silver. Zhuxiang really didn't understand Meng Fuling's intention.
"There's no need to live too much, anyway, he's useless." Meng Fuling smiled, this matter is not over yet, after tonight, there will be no such person as Old Cheng in the world.
It's not that she is ruthless, but that she understands that she must not be soft-hearted towards the best of the Cheng family. If they had behaved better, what happened today would not have happened. Speaking of which, it was their own fault.
At this time, Meng Fuling didn't know that someone had left the General's Mansion, and was rushing towards Qishan County.
