Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

Village Chief Liang quickly winked at Sifeng and whispered, "Say something, my stupid wife!"

Sifeng finally came to her senses and quickly bowed to Shen Ping: "Second sister-in-law, Bangchui knows he is wrong, please forgive him this time..."

He looked at Sifeng's appearance of kicking without making a sound, and she became even more angry: "You woman, you are going to die, why don't you help your husband up quickly."

Seeing her two granddaughters hiding behind Sifeng, He opened her eyes wide and stepped forward to pinch their arms fiercely: "You two ungrateful bastards, you watched your father suffer and didn't even plead for him. You wasted the food."

The two kids' arms were pinched by He Shi so hard that they were in pain. Their faces were wrinkled and they dared not cry out in pain. They knelt down and begged Shen Ping: "Second Aunt, please let my father go!"

At this time, a woman's voice sounded from behind the crowd: "Everyone, get out of the way. There's nothing to see. Go, go, go, do what you need to do..."

As soon as everyone heard it, they knew it was Li who came, which aroused their desire to watch the fun.

Li and Zhang Tiezhu came in with their two sons. Butcher Zhang's wife Luo looked at them with interest: "Hey, Li, this is not your family. Your son-in-law did such a thing, and he is afraid of people knowing it?"

Mrs. Luo's words made Mrs. Li speechless and her face turned red and white. What Mrs. Luo said was right. In Kaoshan Village, everyone knew that Zhang Sifeng's husband had tried to steal the gold bestowed by the emperor and was caught on the spot.

Nowadays, this matter cannot be covered up. He did such a shameful thing and still wants people to know about it. How is that possible?

Seeing that several people had come to the old house, Shen Ping's eyes became even colder. Could it be that this mother-in-law came to plead for mercy for Bangchui?

"mother……"

When Sifeng saw her parents and brother coming, she was not happy. Instead, she became worried because her second sister-in-law's face seemed to have become even colder.

She knew that if her parents came to beg for mercy, her second sister-in-law would probably be even angrier.

Shen Ping raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Dad and Mom, you are here too. Are you here to plead for Fourth Uncle?"

"Pooh!"

Li spat fiercely on the ground: "This wicked fellow is so bold as to try to steal the gold bestowed upon you by the Emperor. He should be handed over to the government for punishment."

Sifeng didn't expect her mother to say such a thing, and she was stunned for a moment. She thought your parents came to plead for Bangchui.

This also surprised Shen Ping. According to common sense, she would plead for mercy, but she supported her in sending her son-in-law to the authorities.

Bangchui and his mother were also dumbfounded when they heard this. They didn't expect that Li would take advantage of their misfortune.

"Mother, you can't send me to the authorities. If I go to jail, what will happen to Sifeng and Lian'er?" Bangchui said with a sad face.

After all, he is a son-in-law, and they are family. He originally thought that this relative came to plead for them, but who knew that Li actually said that he would send his son-in-law to the authorities.

He quickly put on a smiling face: "My dear, this idiot was just confused for a moment. He listened to the instigation of Er Lai and did this stupid thing. It was all Er Lai's fault. He was the mastermind. It has nothing to do with us idiots..."

Unexpectedly, Mrs. He actually put all the blame on her own son. Mrs. Mei's face turned pale and she jumped up.

Pointing at He, he cursed, "Stupid mother, please stop slandering me. If it weren't for your stupid mother telling us about the gold, we might not have known about it. Do I need to tell you who is the mastermind?"

"My mother is right." Wang Erlai followed up Mei's words and said, "It was Brother Bangchui who told me that he would give me two gold bars after the matter was completed~"

This idiot was not willing to give in. Everyone started to argue with each other. Shen Ping's head started to hurt. She slammed the table and said, "Stop arguing. My mother is right. Send him to the police..."

"Wait a minute..."

Zhang Tiezhu quickly held out his hand and said, "Second brother's wife, I also support sending him to the authorities, but I think if this matter gets out of hand, it will be bad for your reputation.

Think about it, you have to keep these things that the emperor has rewarded you with. Fortunately, they were caught on the spot. If they succeeded, the emperor might even blame you..."

"Yes! Dad is right..." Zhang Daniu also nodded repeatedly.

"What your father said seems to make sense. I didn't think of this..." Li nodded meaningfully.

Shen Ping finally understood what was going on. On the surface, her mother-in-law and father-in-law supported her in sending Bangchui to the authorities, but in fact, they came to plead for him.

However, what Zhang Tiezhu said was not wrong. This thing bestowed by the emperor must be well preserved, otherwise it would be a capital crime.

Fortunately, the imperial edict was not destroyed, otherwise if it were to get out, it would be difficult to explain if anything happened.

Shen Ping was also frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. It seemed that now she could only make a big deal out of a small matter. However, she still had to give them a warning.

Shen Ping nodded: "I know that, but the thing was not lost, and I caught the thief myself, which is enough for them to have a drink.

Let me see if the imperial edict has been damaged. If it has been damaged, I can’t protect them…” Shen Ping said as she opened the golden box and took out the imperial edict to examine it.

Nowadays, an imperial edict was as good as the arrival of the emperor. The village chief watched Shen Ping open the edict, then he quickly knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live the emperor!"

Seeing this, everyone followed suit and started to learn.

They didn't expect that this thing turned out to be an imperial edict. Bangchui and Wang Erlai were even more frightened. They remembered that they didn't damage this thing, otherwise they would have been committing a capital crime.

Of course Shen Ping knew the importance of this imperial edict. She looked at it carefully and was relieved that it was intact.

After putting away the imperial edict, Shen Ping saw that Village Chief Liang and others were still kneeling on the ground, so she called them to get up.

Village Chief Liang wiped the sweat from his forehead, clasped his hands together and said, "Mrs. Yu, I know Bangchui and the others have committed an unforgivable crime, but you are magnanimous, please forgive them this time."

"Yes! Village Chief Liang is right!" At this time, the voice of Village Chief He was heard, and everyone made way for them.

I saw Village Chief He with his trouser legs rolled up and his feet covered in mud, as if he had just come back from the fields.

Shen Ping had already sent Cuihong to ask Village Chief He, but the village chief had gone to the fields in the mountains early in the morning, so Cuihong could only ask He Jing to go to the mountains to look for him.

After listening to what they said, he ran back without even bothering to wash his feet.

"Dachun Niang, oh, no, it's Yu Ruren." Village Chief He was anxious and spoke incoherently: "Please forgive them this time. If this matter is told again, the reputation of these two villages will not be good~

"Yes, now they are both injured. This is also a lesson for them. Why don't we just let it go?" Village Chief Liang looked at Shen Ping and said expectantly.

The face of Niugu Village has been completely disgraced by the two of them. I have risked my life to plead for them, but it is not entirely for them, it is for the entire Niugu Village.

Seeing that Village Chief He had pleaded for mercy, everyone also kept begging, and even He softened.

Originally, he didn't really want to send them to the authorities, he just wanted to give them a warning. Seeing so many people begging for mercy, it was like giving himself a way out, so Shen Ping took the opportunity to leave.

Since nothing was damaged or lost, let's just let the matter go. However, when they return the rice seeds, they will have to pay three times the amount as compensation, as a punishment for both of them.

At this point, there was nothing they could do. He and Mei could only consider themselves unlucky and each supported their son as they left Kaoshan Village.

As for Sifeng, she was not affected by this incident and continued to work in the workshop. It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. This was considered a special treatment from Shen Ping to her.

Shenyang listened to every word they said. Seeing this way of handling the matter, the corners of Shenyang's mouth curled up. Yu Ru was very kind-hearted. No wonder she saved him.
