After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor
Chapter 423: Making a noise to lure the snake out, following the steward but being stopped by the di
"Well, now our four brothers can only come later, and they may not be able to get in." Ayun shook his head.
Lin Mingxuan was thinking about another question, "The cargo exploded while being transported. Such a big incident happened, didn't the village head send someone to inform them?"
"Yesterday I went to find the brothers outside, and they said that a horse-drawn carriage had gone out and told the people who had gone there that the carriage only went to a nearby village and came back with Huang's relatives." Qin Xiaofeng said.
“Are they all real relatives?”
"Huang Yong said they are all cousins."
"Didn't anyone get off the bus quietly?" Ding Xirui asked.
Qin Xiaofeng shook his head, "I can't see clearly."
Ah Jiang was a little anxious: "Boss, the New Year is coming soon, what should we do?"
"There will be a big movement later."
"Tian Hong, you are going too far!" There was a sudden noise in the mourning hall. Several people put down their bowls and chopsticks and hurried over.
Xu Xiulan pointed at the head of the village and cursed. Aunt Huang hugged her and pushed her back: "Tian Hong, why do you have the right to decide my family's affairs? The body should be kept at home for seven days, which is right. You actually said that the burial will be tomorrow, and you don't even allow relatives to come to pay their respects. You are so cruel!"
The head of the village had a red face and was filled with anger.
"Who wants your money!" Xu Xiulan grabbed a bag and threw it over.
Everyone in the courtyard looked at each other. Several men tied with white cloth walked forward, their eyes full of indignation, but no one dared to speak.
"Xu Xiulan, it's been seven days since Ah Jun passed away. You are so stubborn. Are you deliberately not wanting him to rest in peace?"
"You..." Xu Xiulan was furious. "You'd better kill me, otherwise, I will definitely report to the police!"
"You crazy woman, Jun died outside. It was an accident. No matter who you sue, it's a false accusation! I tell you, you'll never leave South Col in your life!"
"Tian Hong, don't think I don't know the dirty things you have done...you..." Aunt Huang quickly covered her mouth.
The head of the village gritted his teeth and turned to Uncle Huang: "Huang Anding, your niece-in-law has gone crazy. You must never let her step out of the courtyard in the future!"
Huang Yong knelt down and said, "Uncle, please, my sister-in-law is just too sad. She didn't mean any other thing."
"Brother Tian, Xiulan is confused. She will be fine when she recovers. Don't worry. Ajun will be buried tomorrow. Don't worry... Xiulan will never say anything in the future." Uncle Huang went forward to persuade her. Xiulan had no choice but to throw herself in front of the coffin and burst into tears: "Ajun, open your eyes and see how they treated you?"
"Bang!" A loud noise was heard at the entrance of the village.
"What's that sound?" The head of the village panicked and ran to the yard. "Bang!" Another loud noise was heard.
"Uncle, it seems to be the entrance of the village."
"Let's go and have a look!"
Most people in the courtyard had left, leaving only a few relatives of the Huang family. Even the two men who were wandering at the door were gone. Qin Xiaofeng gave Huang Yong a look. He had a complicated look on his face. He covered his left arm with his right hand and cried out in pain. Several people in the courtyard were instantly attracted by him and came forward to show their concern. The two elders of the Huang family were even more anxious. Lin Mingxuan asked several people to carry Huang Yong back to the room. After seeing the wound, he asked them to boil water, find cloth, and help Ding Xirui boil medicine. Taking this opportunity, Qin Xiaofeng and A Jiang came to the mourning hall to find Xu Xiulan.
"Sister-in-law, please calm down and don't shout. I am a constable from the government office. I am here to seek justice for your husband. Please tell me everything you know." Qin Xiaofeng said anxiously.
Xu Xiulan's eyes widened and she stood there motionless.
"Sister-in-law, please trust us," Qin Xiaofeng took out a government token and put it in Xu Xiulan's hand. She was illiterate, but she had heard operas and knew that this was something to prove her identity.
"My husband was killed by them..." Xu Xiulan curled her lips, feeling wronged and heartbroken. She quickly wiped away her tears and grabbed Qin Xiaofeng's sleeve: "Sir, I don't know who they are, but the head of the village sent a girl to them. I was almost sent away, and it was Ajun who saved me..."
"Beast!" A Jiang pounded the ground.
"But I know where they are. One time when I was working in the fields, I saw the village head leading people to carry a sedan chair to the northern mountains. That place is haunted and there are said to be wild beasts that eat people. We don't usually go there."
"In the mountains to the north?"
"Yes, keep going north, they must be inside." Xu Xiulan nodded firmly.
"Okay, sister-in-law. Tian Hong wants to keep things quiet and not let the news leak out. Sister-in-law, for your safety, don't conflict with him again."
"But..." Xu Xiulan glanced at the coffin, her lips trembling, and finally nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you, sir."
"Also, what we do here must be kept secret. No one can tell it, not even anyone."
"I remember."
After Qin Xiaofeng finished giving his instructions, the two elders of the Huang family also came in. He and A Jiang quickly lowered their heads and started to clean up the debris in the mourning hall.
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers." Uncle Huang also packed up and said, "I'll use your carriage again tomorrow."
"Uncle, you're too polite. We're just collecting money and doing our job. It's not a question of how hard it is." A Jiang replied.
"Hey, it's been a mess at home these past two days, please don't..." He hesitated to speak.
Ah Jiang shook his head and said, "Don't worry, uncle. We have our own rules in this business. We won't say anything when we get paid."
"Okay, thank you both." Uncle Huang smiled slightly.
On the other side, the village head Tian Hongzheng was leading people to put out the fire. He was puzzled. Who was the damn guy who caused such trouble at this time? He wanted to suppress the matter of Huang Jun brothers quickly. The two loud noises would surely blow out the "big shots" in the mountains, and he would definitely be scolded.
Alas, today is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. Can’t we celebrate the New Year happily? It’s so unlucky!
Just as they put out the fire, two horses came riding in from a distance. The village head gritted his teeth and asked everyone to go back. He left two nephews from his inner family to greet them at the entrance of the village.
"Manager Tao, Manager Miao, you two are here!" The village head smiled.
The two looked around and asked, "What happened? Why is there such a loud noise?"
"Nothing. A kid was playing with firecrackers and accidentally set the dry grass on fire."
Tao and Miao jumped off their horses and said, "Nonsense, how can firecrackers make such a loud noise? Did you not hand in the things you brought when you went out?"
"I dare not, I dare not! Manager Tao, I know the rules. Nothing they bring back will enter the village... You two have worked hard, please come into the village and have some tea."
"We won't drink the tea anymore. We are still waiting to go back and report. Tian Hong, let me ask you again, is it really a firecracker?" asked the manager named Tao.
"Yes, yes, I dare not lie..."
"Let me tell you, if something goes wrong, you won't be the only one to be punished."
"Don't worry, the village will be safe and sound. I will continue to work for him next year." Tian Hong wiped the sweat from his forehead, his heart trembling.
"There was an explosion on the mountain road a few days ago. It wasn't your people, was it?"
"No..." The head of the village became even more panicked, sweating profusely, "It's not from our place."
"Do your job well, and you will be rewarded." The manager named Miao patted him on the shoulder.
"Yes, don't worry, it's all thanks to that person that our lives are getting better and better. We are very grateful." The head of the village bowed.
Tao and Miao jumped on their horses and galloped away. Not long after, the two yamen runners turned into a valley, untied their horses, and caught up with them.
Unexpectedly, before we had chased for too long, we were blocked by a ditch. The bridge boards were all on the other side, making it impossible to get through.
In the evening, Qin Xiaofeng left the village to meet them.
"Boss, there's a ditch blocking us, we can't get through."
"ditch?"
"Correct."
"There is a cable bridge between the two banks, but there are no wooden planks in the middle. The planks are all on the other side."
"What on earth are these people doing?" Qin Xiaofeng felt a little numb.
"You two should go back to Luocheng. This situation cannot be solved by the dozens of people in our yamen. Ask Magistrate Wang to go to the garrison to find the inspector and make preparations first."
"Are you going to mobilize the army..." The two yamen runners were a little scared.
"They have been secretly buying saltpeter and sulfur for three years, so the quantity must be huge. I'm really worried. What should we do if they are so cruel as to capture nearby residents and threaten them, or ignite explosives to kill ourselves?" Qin Xiaofeng said, his heart in a knot.
"Boss, got it. We'll go back now." The two bailiffs looked solemn.
"Be safe and stay hidden."
"Ah."
Qin Xiaofeng returned to the Huang family courtyard, feeling uneasy. A Jiang told him that the head of the village had just come to warn him, saying that Huang Jun died suddenly of illness and no one could mention the explosion again.
