Farming and reading family

Chapter 876 Gao E is accused

In her impression, Gao E always has a plan and strategy, and she would never quarrel with others, let alone fight with them.

"I wasn't expecting you to come soon." Gao E quickly put the lamp oil can far away.

When Zhao Dayuan and his men saw that there were only three people, they didn't take them seriously at all.

"That's all. Just a few more people will get beaten." Zhao Dayuan said as he continued to rush forward.

Seeing that he was a bit old, Ji Wuyang kicked him with some skillful force, but just kicked him away without hurting him.

But it also scared others.

Luo Dagang didn't have Ji Wuyang's strange idea. He knocked down all the young and strong men with one punch.

The remaining women who were already behind were frightened and ran away screaming.

After finally defeating those people, Ji Wuyang brought Zhao Dayuan over.

"What's your name?" Gao E looked at Zhao Dayuan who was sitting on the ground.

Zhao Dayuan wanted to be tough: "Zhao Dayuan."

"Are you going to be reasonable now?" Gao E asked directly.

"Just say it if you have something to say." Zhao Dayuan said dejectedly.

"What can I say to you? You were the ones who came to us first." Gao E spread her hands.

Zhao Dayuan was dissatisfied when he heard Gao E say this: "This mountain was originally our Zhao family, and the coal mine should also be ours."

"If you're looking for us because of this mountain, that's even more unreasonable." Gao E said seriously, "This mountain belongs to Lord Xu, the coal mine also belongs to Lord Xu, and the document allowing coal mining also belongs to Lord Xu. We are just doing things for Lord Xu."

Zhao Dayuan looked at Gao E and said, "Anyone can make up such nonsense."

"If you don't believe it, let's go to the county government office tomorrow and let Lord Cao check it out." Gao E said frankly.

Seeing Gao E being so frank, Zhao Dayuan wondered if it was true.

If this coal mine really belongs to Lord Xu, they would not dare to act rashly.

"As for the beating incident, it was you who ran into my workshop and beat someone up, and then it was you who blocked here and caused trouble. We were just defending ourselves, understand?" Gao E stared at Zhao Dayuan.

"Then what do you want?" Zhao Dayuan knew that they were in the wrong at the beginning, but they were the ones who suffered losses afterwards.

"Don't come to the workshop to cause trouble in the future, and clear all the roadblocks along the way for me." Gao E didn't make any excessive demands.

"The roadblocks along the way have nothing to do with us." Zhao Dayuan said immediately.

That's because the villages see that honeycomb coal is useful, so they want to stop people on the road to ask for some money, or just some honeycomb coal.

"I don't care whether it has anything to do with you or not, just do it." Gao E said in a commanding tone.

Those roadblocks may really have nothing to do with Zhao Dayuan, but he can be seen as a local tyrant in this area, so it is much easier for him to do this.

It would be much more troublesome to ask her to negotiate.

The corners of Zhao Dayuan's mouth twitched twice: "Okay."

This was indeed a matter of his saying a word in the past, and it was not a too demanding condition.

"Wouldn't it be better if you had explained things to me earlier?" Gao E said with a smile. "When we get to know each other again in the future, wouldn't it be better if we could talk to each other nicely?"

Zhao Dayuan didn't want to associate with these people anymore.

After some more politeness, Zhao Dayuan took a group of wounded soldiers back.

Gao E also needs to clean up her side, so it seems she has to start thinking about recruiting guards again.

A group of people were trained in Ghost Crying Mountain before, but they were killed by Qu Zhonglai and his men.

Even the government didn't care about this kind of thing, so there was nothing she could do.

There are some young and strong people in Batou Village who can be trained by Chu Rong, but Batou Village needs more people than here.

So after all the calculations, there is still a shortage of people.

Gao E wanted to keep Luo Dagang here first, but Lianxin was about to give birth, so Gao E couldn't force him to stay.

So He Jiabei could only recruit a few guards first.

Chen Jie followed Gao E back to He County. When they arrived in He County, the city gate was closing. Gao E had to spend the night in He County and take the opportunity to see how the houses in He County were being built.

Lei was heartbroken to see Chen Jie injured, but Chen Jie vividly described how he fought against those unruly people.

Gao E wanted to laugh when she heard this. It is true that a man will never know whether he is still a young man until he dies, but he will always be stubborn until his death.

"Everything was fine when Manager Jin was here, why did something go wrong as soon as you left?" Lei was a little dissatisfied, thinking that her husband had messed up the affairs of his second sister-in-law.

Chen Jie got scared when he heard that.

"Maybe it's because the weather is cold, and they have nothing to do and start causing trouble." Gao E came to Chen Jie's rescue.

Lei glared at Chen Jie, then laughed as she looked at her second sister-in-law: "Second sister-in-law, there's no need to excuse him. He's just not as good as Manager Jin."

"Uncle Jin has been doing business since he was a child and has seen the world. I am not as good as Uncle Jin." Gao E thought that Jin Gusheng would not really have an accident on the road.

Lei was completely relieved when she saw that her second sister-in-law really had no intention of blaming her husband.

After daybreak, Luo Dagang rode back to Baotou Village first, and Gao E went to see the shop and the house under construction.

Building a house in He County is much simpler than building a college. You just need to build it and the tiles are already being laid.

With the subsequent installation of doors and windows, it is estimated that it will be usable next year.

After lunch, Gao E was planning to go home, but she happened to meet the yamen runner who came to look for her.

Gao E may not know the yamen runners, but the yamen runners all know Gao E.

After a conversation, I found out that someone had sued Gao E, saying that Gao E had beaten someone to death.

Gao E admitted to beating someone, but she definitely denied killing him.

When Gao E arrived at the county government office, there were already many people gathered outside the office. When they saw Gao E come in, they all pointed and talked.

Some people even recognized Gao E, after all, Gao E came to the yamen quite often.

"My Lord, please make the decision for me." Wan was wearing a sackcloth and mourning cloth, crying bitterly, "My husband is gone, what will happen to my whole family?"

No matter how reluctant Gao E was, she had to kneel down and salute when she arrived at the lobby of the yamen.

But she was not panicked. She looked carefully at the woman who was crying and gasping for breath, and then looked at the man lying on the stretcher, and she had a clue in her mind.

Cao Geng knew that Gao E had beaten someone, and thought that she would not really beat him to death.

"Sir, have you asked a coroner to perform an autopsy?" Gao E asked suddenly.

Cao Geng was stunned for a moment. The woman said her husband was beaten to death by Gao E's men, so he didn't think much of it. "Call the coroner."

The woman who was originally crying paused for a moment, then cried even louder: "Master, you died so tragically, you can't rest in peace even after death..."

Gao E just watched the woman cry, unmoved.

First of all, the time doesn't match. It took her almost a day to get from Jiming Mountain to He County by horse carriage. If she had taken a flatbed cart from Jiming Mountain to He County, it would have taken her a whole day and night to walk on the road.

Secondly, the woman’s linen clothes were so new, as if they had been prepared in advance.

When their family held Jiang's funeral, some of the linen clothes were borrowed, and only the linen clothes for the three sons were hastily cut. How could they prepare so well for someone's sudden death?

Also, in such weather, rigor mortis should not have gone away at this time, but the body did not show rigor mortis when the woman was crying and shaking the body.
