After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Fan Qiye sighed: "Thanks to Shui Qing."

Otherwise, it would not be her mother-in-law who died, but the whole village who died and sold for scraps.

Speaking of this, he felt really shameless!

Did the Fan family's ancestors' graves not be buried well? How could they be so evil?

Fan Qian and Fan Damu were just lazy and cunning and didn't care about the safety of the villagers, but Fan Damu actually wanted to kill the whole village!

The disaster last night was, to say the least, entirely caused by the Fan family.

He has been strong all his life, but when he is old, he is almost embarrassed to see other people in the village.

Fan Qiye looked at the kid, and saw the children kneeling on the ground in the room, as well as Shui Qing, who had been in charge of the overall situation all night, and was very relieved just now.

It can't be said that the ancestral graves were not well buried. At least his family and Jin Xiaozi's family were very good. The ancestral graves did not bear the blame for Fan Qian and Fan Damu's evil deeds.

Hearing their praise of Shui Qing, Fan Jin was neither modest nor belittling, but followed with pride: "Shui Qing did a good job indeed.

The village has been in chaos these past two days, and she cannot do without her, but it would be good for the elders to try and persuade her to relax for a while. "

Staying up all night is too much for even a strong body.

She doesn't need to worry about the family, he can do a good job, but he can't take care of the outside things for the time being, so he can only ask the old man Murakami to remind him not to work too hard.

The old man in the yard also understood the meaning of the words and promised: "Don't worry, Shui Qing sent most of the women home to rest last night, and they will be rotated today."

Fan Jin was worried, but he could only thank a few elderly people with worry.

The injured in the village are now injured, and some of the uninjured men are out and will not be able to return for at least several days. The remaining men have to clean up the bloodstains, help the deceased, and guard and patrol... The women are in charge. Everyone eats, feeds the animals, takes care of the children...

Everyone is too busy and has no free time. As for the things that Shui Qing is responsible for, even if everyone in the village is free, they can't do it.

Only if the water is clear.

The old village chief and his party came out of the yard and went to Zhao's and Sun's houses to discuss for a while, and each of them let out a long sigh.

This year’s New Year is going to be a restless one no matter what.

On the way back, I saw that the people making porridge in front of the study room had been replaced by Fan Xiang and Xu Ting. The young girl was making porridge, fetching water and washing the dishes. She was very neat, not inferior to the women who had been doing housework all year round. people.

There were piles of firewood piled high in the open space and most of the sacks of grain.

Fan Xiaoliu was on duty on the embankment at the front gate. The number of patrolmen was changed to one. Although the number of people was reduced, the energy was not low and the spirit was high.

After bandaging, the man and woman went back to their houses to rest.

The other men and women went back to the house in batches to catch up on their sleep, while those who had their turn to work performed their duties.

Seeing this, a few people just felt that God was kind enough to provide their village with clear water. Otherwise, they were afraid that they would become victims of famine or become refugees. Even if they escaped, they would be targeted by bandits once. Can't hide.

Let alone spend the New Year in peace and quiet, one’s life is uncertain.

After looking at the sun in the sky, the old village chief walked towards Shuiqing.

Jin Xiaozi told her not to overwork her.

Shui Qing saw the old village chief walking towards her tremblingly, and quickly stepped forward to ask: "Does the old village chief have something to tell me? Just say it!"

There was such a big commotion last night. The old man probably didn't fall asleep because he didn't have much sleep. He was just afraid of coming out and causing trouble, so he stayed at home. When he came out after dawn, he helped the three families discuss the burial location, date, and coffin. , I was very tired all morning.

Young people are still physically tired after staying up all night and working hard, let alone these elderly people.

Shui Qing was really afraid that no one would notice, so he added a few more coffins.

Bah, bah, bah, don’t think too much!

As soon as the old village chief smiled, he heard Fan Xiaoliu on the embankment exclaim: "There are people coming! It's a few people on horseback, wearing official uniforms!"

Shanshui Village is located in a remote place, and their village is the only one at the end of this road. These government officials can only come to their village.

Everyone present was excited and looked at Shui Qing.

Shui Qing looked up at Fan Xiaoliu and asked in a deep voice, "How many are there?"

Fan Xiaoliu counted carefully and replied definitely: "Five horses and five people! Official uniforms and swords."

"What should I do, Sister-in-law Shui Qing? Can I open the door?" someone asked in panic.

Shuiqing said without hesitation: "Open the door."

Immediately, a man stepped forward without hesitation and opened the door.

The old village chief looked around and warned steadily: "Don't talk without permission later, just listen to Shui Qing's wishes!"

"Okay!" Everyone responded in unison without any objection.

They were originally afraid of dealing with official officials, especially since the results of last night's interrogation were completely beyond their previous knowledge and knowledge. Even if they were asked to come forward to reply, they would be embarrassed. It would be better if they didn't have to come forward.

The horses came very quickly, and soon they came in with the Yamen servants.

Shui Qing stepped forward and asked with a smile: "What officials are you talking about last night?"

The leading yamen servant seemed not to have seen or heard, his sharp eyes swept around the yard, and finally landed in front of the old village chief. He walked straight over, raised his chin and said condescendingly: "Are you the village chief? I have something to say. ask you!"

The other four people also skipped Shui Qing and walked towards the old village chief.

Although a woman's family may be more impressive, she is still a woman, so she has no right to talk to them.

Seeing how ignored Shui Qing was by the five people, the chests of everyone present rose and fell violently.

The old village chief didn't even raise his eyelids and asked coldly: "I am old and just went out this morning. What do you want to ask me?"

The leading Yamen servant frowned, his face full of displeasure.

The old man meant that he could only ask about what happened after the morning, but he didn't know anything about last night!

He looked at the others and saw everyone staring at them angrily.

There were only a dozen men and a few women present, but he heard in the morning that they had big knives and various homemade powerful poisons. Boss Zhu had nearly a hundred people infected, not to mention only five of them.

His heart skipped a beat, but he quickly changed his attitude, put a smile on his face, clasped his fists and asked, "Who else should I ask?"

The old village chief finally raised his eyelids, looked at Shuiqing, and pointed the way: "She, Hu Shuiqing, has the full say in everything that happens in our village."

Seeing that it was the person he had ignored, even a woman, the smile on the questioning yamen officer's face froze.

He turned to look at the others. More than twenty people just stared at them warily, and no one had any intention of answering.

These people are so united! He highly respected this woman named Hu Shuiqing, and she was the only one who followed her lead.

Knowing that if they didn't ask Hu Shuiqing for questioning, no one would reply. The five government officials looked at each other and could only grit their teeth and walk towards Shuiqing.
