I traveled through time and space as a little girl, and the emperor appointed me as the great master
Chapter 7: The village chief protects his own shortcomings, and the old witch is furious
"Mrs. Kong Zhu, before Kong Zheng left, he entrusted Kong Xiaoxiao to me. I am the only one who can be her master." The village chief felt relieved. Fortunately, he and Kong Zheng had made arrangements in advance.
"Your family must see clearly to me that Xiaoxiao has already been adopted into my Kong Mingde family. This is the contract signed between Lao Zheng and me."
After the village chief finished speaking, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, opened it, and showed it to Kong Weijia.
No one present at Kong Wei's house was literate. After staring at the paper, they all fell silent.
Kong Xiaoxiao had not expected this kind of relationship to exist. Probably affected by the original body's emotions, her eyes suddenly turned red and she wanted to cry.
It turned out that her grandfather had already made arrangements for her to escape, knowing that life would not be easy for a girl like her.
It has never been made public, probably for two reasons.
One is that maybe Mrs. Kong Zhu is not that bad, she is just a bit harsh in her words.
When Lao Zheng is really gone, her family will take care of Kong Xiaoxiao out of the consideration that they are relatives.
Secondly, it is to be on the safe side. In case people’s minds are unpredictable, it is always better to keep a hand.
It turned out that it was right to keep something back. The village chief had not even told his own family about this matter.
When Mrs. Kong Zhu saw that she could no longer be the master of Kong Xiaoxiao, how could she make money from her? She could not swallow this loss and quit immediately.
"Impossible. Why should she be adopted by your family? We are her blood relatives. If she is to be adopted, she should be adopted by our family."
If what the village chief said was true, then she would not be able to sell this dead girl. The money that was in her mouth flew away. This was just squeezing her flesh!
When the village chief saw that Mrs. Zhu was still jumping around, his anger increased even more.
"I don't care whether you believe it or not. I have already filed a case with the government. Xiaoxiao is already my family member. If you dare to bully Xiaoxiao in the future, you will really get out of here, or I will take you to see the officials directly."
"Since your family has done something wrong, I now ask you to compensate Xiaoxiao with two taels of silver as compensation for today's shock. Do you have any objections?"
Asking her to pay two taels of silver as compensation would be a direct blow to Mrs. Zhu.
"Two taels of silver? I won't give it to you. My family has no money. I have no money but my life." When Mrs. Zhu heard that she was asked for money, she ignored everything else and just lay on the ground and acted like a spoiled child.
The village chief glared at Kong Wei in disappointment, then stared at Mrs. Zhu who was rolling on the ground: "You can refuse to give it to me, I will arrange for someone to go to your house to pack up your things later, and move out today."
Kong Xiaoxiao, who was standing next to him, was also full of admiration for the village chief. Well, that's how it has to be. Otherwise, their family will be glaring at them and will not remember the pain unless they are severely punished.
"Mom, just give it to me. If you really want our family to be kicked out, your eldest grandson won't be able to continue studying in the academy."
When Xiao Zhu heard that she was going to be kicked out and saw that her mother-in-law refused to give her money, she was so anxious that she had to move her eldest son Kong Rongming out.
As expected, Mrs. Kong Zhu still has people she cares about. The one she cares about most in this family is her eldest grandson Kong Rongming, followed by her second grandson Kong Xiaojie. Everyone else has to stand aside.
Especially the second wife, Kong Ergang’s three daughters are all money-losing goods, and they live a life worse than pigs and dogs at home.
Seeing the village chief so ruthless, Kong Zhu had no choice but to give in and beg for mercy. "One tael is enough. I don't have two taels. This damn girl just took all the money I had."
The village chief and others did not expect that Kong Xiaoxiao had touched her money, so they looked at Kong Xiaoxiao, using their eyes to ask her if it was true.
"That's the compensation you gave to Aunt Hua in the town, not with me," Kong Xiaoxiao explained.
After the village chief understood.
"It's decided. You have until today to give Xiaoxiao two taels of silver. Otherwise, I will send someone to help you pack your luggage before tonight," the village chief threatened Mrs. Zhu, who was playing tricks on her.
"Okay, everyone, leave. Stop surrounding us and go do what you need to do," the village chief said to them.
Mrs. Kong Zhu and her family also ran away in shame, leaving only the village chief's family and Uncle Fang's family at the scene.
"Xiaoxiao, are you okay?" Aunt Fang pulled Xiaoxiao to check if she was injured.
"I'm fine. Thank you Xiaohua for today," Kong Xiaoxiao said with a smile to Xiaohua.
"Who are we to each other? We are good sisters," Xiaohua said embarrassedly with a pout.
Seeing that the village chief was still waiting, Aunt Fang said, "Since you are fine, we will go back first. Your village chief grandfather should have something to tell you, so we will not disturb you."
Then he tactfully took Xiaohua away.
After the Fang family left.
"Thank you, Village Chief." Kong Xiaoxiao sincerely thanked the Village Chief for always protecting her.
"What are you talking about?" Grandma Wei said, pulling Xiao Xiao with concern.
"Xiaoxiao, what are your plans for the future? Why don't you move to our house? Anyway, you are a member of our family now. As long as there is food at home, we will never let you go hungry."
The village chief felt that it was really unsafe for Xiaoxiao to live alone, but he also wanted to respect Xiaoxiao's decision.
“No, I know you care about me, but as you saw today, I didn’t suffer any loss.
And now that I’m grown up, I will protect myself well, and I’ll tell you in secret that my grandfather has also always protected me.”
Kong Xiaoxiao directly brought up the deceased Kong Zheng to take the blame.
"Huh? Your grandfather?" The village chief thought he had heard wrongly and asked uncertainly.
"My grandfather would appear in my dreams every day, saying that he was reluctant to be reincarnated and had asked the King of Hell for mercy. He hoped that the King would protect me until I passed the imperial examination and then be reincarnated."
Kong Xiaoxiao made up something in all seriousness.
"Is this true?" Grandma Wei suddenly felt a cool breeze and felt a little cold, so she tightened her clothes and said.
"Well, I know a few tricks. My grandfather taught me martial arts in my dreams. I have learned a few tricks now. If I continue to study for a while, others will not be able to bully me anymore. So, you can rest assured."
Kong Xiaoxiao now found an excuse to tell them the origin of her martial arts in advance, so that when she recovers her skills in the future, they will not suspect her.
"It's such an incredible thing, but your grandfather is worried about you and is reluctant to reincarnate. I believe it. You are the one your grandfather is most worried about in this life, otherwise he would not have entrusted you to our family."
The village chief has always believed in ghosts, and Xiaoxiao was timid and quiet before, but today Xiaoxiao is obviously different.
When he saw her stepping on Mrs. Zhu and putting the sickle on her neck today, he thought he had seen the wrong person. If it was because of Lao Zheng, then it would make sense.
When Kong Xiaoxiao saw the village chief in deep thought, she guessed that the village chief must have believed what she said.
"Okay, then you must come to us if you have something to ask. It's getting late today. I'll go to Mrs. Zhu's house to get the money and then come to see you."
The village chief didn't believe that Mrs. Kong Zhu's family would honestly give the money to him, so he decided to go and get it himself.
Soon the village chief and his men left, leaving Kong Xiaoxiao alone.
Kong Xiaoxiao opened the door, took out the things in the backpack and put them away, then went to the kitchen to knead the dough. Since she bought flour today, she decided to make some pancakes.
Kong Wei's home.
"Hurry up and take out the money and give it to that girl, or we will really get kicked out," Kong Wei instructed his wife as soon as he entered the house.
"If he doesn't give it to me, I won't believe it. If Kong Mingde really dares to drive my family out, I will definitely report him to the judge. I don't believe it. He is more powerful than the county magistrate." Mrs. Zhu sat down on the bed and said disapprovingly.
"Hey, why don't you listen to my advice? It's up to you." Kong Wei was actually hoping for a lucky break and wasn't going to say anything.
Mrs. Kong Zhu pursed her lips, then looked at the time and realized it was getting late. No wonder she was hungry. She suddenly became furious, jumped up from the bed, rushed out and started scolding Feng from the second room.
"You damn lazy bastard, it's already so late and you haven't prepared the meal yet. Do you want me to serve your family?"
When Dahua saw that her grandmother had gone crazy again, she immediately protected her two younger sisters behind her as if they were facing a great enemy.
Feng's frightened look made Mrs. Kong Zhu's vanity greatly increased. Look, this is the majesty of the head of the family. As long as she gets angry, this woman will be like a quail.
"You gave birth to a bunch of money-losing things, and you still expect me to serve you? I'll beat you to death." Mrs. Kong Zhu seemed to want to get back at Feng for the beating she got outside today.
She went to the corner, picked up a stick and hit Feng on the back. Feng fell to the ground in so much pain that she couldn't get up.
"Mom, Mom" Dahua and Erhua were so scared that they immediately ran forward to protect their mother, and Sanhua was so scared that he burst into tears.
The family is in a state of chaos and excitement.
