The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 468 Suspicious (1)
Qing Shu nodded, "First ask which family the captured child belongs to, and ask him to recruit his accomplices. When you go to Sunjia Village, bring more people, and skip Sun Lizheng and go directly to their parents. Advice Say what you want, and give a warning, remember to ask them to return the stolen clothes." She didn't feel sorry for a few rough clothes, but she didn't want those children to go astray.It is not generosity to indulge a child who makes mistakes. "Just say that I said it, let Guanshi Zhang put down the matter at hand and deal with it personally. You also follow, you see how Guanshi Zhang handles it, and learn more."

After dispatching Yuan Bao to lock the door to run an errand, Qing Shu asked someone to call for a carriage, and got into the carriage to see the water diversion project that Mr. Song presided over.

The ditches in Liangzhou have been repaired, and the construction site has now extended to the boundary of Huizhou and the Qingshu wasteland.

The carriage stopped near the construction site, Qingshu looked out for a while from the small window on the wall of the carriage, ordered the driver to turn the horse's head, and return the same way.

When the noise came to her ears, Qing Shu closed her eyes and opened her eyes in the moving carriage, "What's going on?"

Xiaojuan, who was looking out, put down the curtains of the car and replied, "Miss, I don't know what happened, a group of village women are yelling at the workers at the vegetable field."

Qing Shu sat upright, "Send someone over to have a look."

"Miss, the guards have already rode past." Xiaoyu replied from the side.

At this time, the coachman stopped the carriage after asking Qing Shu for instructions.

Soon, the guard came back and reported that there were about [-] women in Sunjia Village who were teasing and cursing about five and a half children.The women said that Manager Zhang wronged the children in their village for stealing things. They refused to accept it. They wanted justice, and they wanted Manager Zhang to make an apology.

Qing Shu's face darkened, "I don't know what's good or bad. Send people to Sun's Village, let their men come over, let Sun Lizheng come over. I want to see what kind of tricks they are playing?"

I don't want to, but the people haven't been dispatched yet, but the voice of a woman crying for her father and mother can be heard over there.

"I don't want to live anymore. I have no face to live. Gatou, I have been bullied by the servants of a rich family. Mother, my wife is ashamed to face others. Let her go and let her die!"

Then a group of women began to curse.They scolded God for being unfair; scolded everyone who worked on the wasteland as bad people; scolded Manager Zhang for bullying them for being poor, so they bullied their children first and then bullied them.There are also those who swear, no matter how ugly the swearing is.

Zhang Guanshi and the others are very angry, but they are a group of big men, how can they do anything to women and children.What was even more irritating was that he understood that this group of women dared to make trouble without fear because they saw that they could not do anything to women and children.

An old man in his fifties hurried over, "Shut up, shut up, a bunch of eyesless creatures! What's the fuss? What's the fuss? Go home and cook, don't embarrass yourself here."

The old man was wearing a dark blue cloth.Although it is commoner, it is not the coarse cloth that the villagers wear, but a medium-grade material among the cloth.The old man was of medium height, with a ruddy complexion that was quite fair compared to the dark men in the village.His hands exposed from the sleeves are obviously different from those of people who do farm work or heavy manual work. They are not so rough and callous.

Obviously, he lived a prosperous life in the village and had an unusual status.Because of his yelling just now, the rambunctious women immediately stopped talking.

With a gloomy face, Guanshi Zhang pointed at the dozen or so acres of newly planted vegetables that had been trampled on the edge of the vegetable field, "Sun Lizheng, these are the vegetable seedlings that the master took a lot of effort to get from afar. One tree of silver is not counting the money spent everywhere."

A woman shouted in a shrill voice, "One tael of silver? Bah, there's no way to blackmail people, isn't it just a few vegetables?"

Sun Li was yelling at the woman to shut up, and then stared at the disheveled vegetable seedlings.When he found out that it was a vegetable seedling that he had never seen before, his heart was pounding, "Guan Zhang, they are ignorant women, don't be as knowledgeable as them, I will let them admit their mistakes."

Zhang Guanshi waved his hand and interrupted him, "Sun Lizheng, I have been looking for you before, because the boy in your village stole some of our clothes from here, and also stole seventeen corn buns from the stove." Momo. At that time, you said that you would let the villagers control your children, but I didn’t pursue the responsibility, didn’t ask for the clothes back, and didn’t say to return the clothes. Unexpectedly, they came to steal things again today. The few who stole the clothes were actually They escaped, but the one who stole the steamed bun was caught. It was a boy named Sun Daniu. How old are they? They started to learn bad things. I went to inform their parents. Their father is not here, but their mother is. Yes. Parents should have taught them a lesson after such a disgraceful thing happened, but I didn’t want them to come here to make trouble and ruin the master’s precious vegetable seedlings.”

Sun Lizheng pushed a smile on his face, "Director Zhang, don't worry, these restless boys and these ignorant women should be taught a lesson, and I will take them back right away."

Guanshi Zhang bent down and grabbed a crushed vegetable seedling, "Sun Lizheng, is it because we are so easy to talk, we don't wantonly shout and beat you like other rich people do things, so you don't know who you are?"

That's right on point.

Sun Lizheng's expression changed immediately, and the woman who was making trouble just now also felt the change in the atmosphere.

Guanshi Zhang's eyes were a bit frightening, "What are you guys? How dare you try to climb on top of us and act wildly! Have you ever asked about our master's personality before the trouble? Mr. Gu, tell them."

Gu Yuanbao heard this, and took a step forward, "Our master is benevolent, he never bullies the villagers, but he will never let anyone who bullies him, no matter he is powerful or a farmer like you. We The master can sit down with a pleasant face and talk about crops with the poor villagers, and he can never turn over those who bully and oppress them. Our master does not allow us to oppress the villagers, let alone anyone who oppresses us."

Manager Zhang felt satisfied, nodded to Gu Yuanbao, and said to Sun Lizheng, "Since you are so unreasonable, well, you have to return the stolen clothes and the stolen buns. We will pay 13 taels of silver for one vegetable seedling. If we have delayed our work for half a day, we should also give some corresponding compensation.”

The women gasped and shouted again.

Guanshi Zhang pretended not to hear, and only spoke to Sun Lizheng, "Sun Lizheng, if you want to take care of this matter, then let them compensate honestly, and we won't do it. If you don't want to take care of it, we can either ask them for it ourselves, or Please ask the officials to help, you just stay away."

Only then did Sun Lizheng realize that the matter was serious, "Wait, wait, Manager Zhang, calm down, calm down, there is something to discuss."
