Widow Liu's husband's surname is Gu, and he is a member of their Gu clan. After this incident, the head of the Gu clan also lost face.

What's more, if Widow Liu was not taken care of by her clan, how could she gain a foothold in the village?

But he didn't expect that this Liu would be so treacherous and collude with outsiders to harm the children of their Gu family.

Patriarch Gu wanted to tear her heart apart.

Ma didn't have time to deal with them, not even the clan leader or the head of the village.

She was about to rush out with the child in her arms, but at that moment, someone in the crowd outside the door shouted, "Doctor Shen is here!"

As soon as the voice fell, the crowd outside the door automatically made way for them, and Shen Lianchuan hurried over with a medicine box on his back.

"I'm here to see the child." Shen Lianchuan's face looked a little solemn, with a hint of guilt that was barely noticeable.

After checking the pulses of the children one by one, he felt relieved. All three children had been drugged and had no signs of abuse on their bodies.

"The child was fed drugs, which is why he is in a coma. I will prescribe some medicine. After he wakes up and takes it for two days, he should be fine."

After Shen Lianchuan finished writing the prescription, the wailing inside gradually became quieter, and finally only one or two muffled groans were heard, and finally disappeared...

During this scene, the two clan leaders and the village chief did not say anything to stop it. They just stood outside, as if waiting for an invisible verdict.

Finally, a scream from the house broke the silence.

"Ah! Dead!"

Then a series of hurried footsteps came from the house.

In the blink of an eye, everyone ran out.

There was only a fat woman lying on the ground in the backyard, her face purple and red, and she was already dead.

The widow Liu in the main room was still alive, but she was beaten badly, her teeth were broken, and she was vomiting blood. She collapsed in the corner like a dead dog.

Sixth Grandpa sighed and whispered to the three Ma family members who were holding the child, "Take the child back! Don't let the child get scared if he wakes up later."

A trace of worry flashed across the faces of the three Ma family members, but they finally nodded and went back with the children.

At the door, the people in the house just ran out and saw the clan leader and the village head there, and their faces turned pale immediately.

"Village head, clan leader, that kidnapper is dead!"

The head of the village looked gloomy and stared at Gu Yuan and his gang.

It's so lawless. Even such a big matter was not discussed with the village chief. It shows that they don't even take him, the village chief, seriously.

Seeing this, the head of the Gu family understood what Village Chief Wang meant. He just snorted coldly, "Humph! A kidnapper dared to attack our village. If he dies, then so be it. Wang Lizheng, you are not going to protect a kidnapper, are you?"

Clan leader Gu was already at odds with the head of the village, and he felt that he had lost face, so he spoke rather harshly.

Although there are laws in the current dynasty, in such remote places, most people do things according to the clan system and clan rules. Patriarch Gu has the confidence to say this.

The village chief's face suddenly frowned. Gu Delai, relying on his status as the clan leader, never took him, the village chief recognized by the government, seriously. Thinking of this, he lost his face.

"Humph! The county magistrate has to give the prisoner a chance to defend himself before he makes a judgment. It seems that you are more powerful than the county magistrate?"

As soon as the hat was put on, Patriarch Gu's face became even worse. He pointed at Wang Lizheng for a long time without saying anything.

Chief Shen hurried out to smooth things over, "Alas, these children have suffered a great loss, pitiful, our two tribesmen were also angry for a moment and accidentally killed the kidnapper, please forgive me, village chief.

If we report it to the police, this man will not escape death.

The county magistrate is so busy, so we'd better not trouble him with our small matter, lest the people above think that we are not supervising well. There are too many things to do in the village!

Besides, if this person dares to come to our village, and the villagers don’t kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, I’m afraid that anyone will dare to come and trample on our village in the future.”

There are mountains and water nearby. Although it is remote, there are many villages.

As the number of villages increased, there were often conflicts among the villages over the issue of fighting over mountain tops.

As for why they want to seize the mountain, the benefits are huge.

Not to mention anything else, just burning firewood is a big deal.

Every household needs to chop wood and cook, so where does the wood come from?

Of course, they cut firewood from the mountains, but if those hills do not belong to the village, people from other villages will not let you enter, let alone carry firewood down from the mountains.

In order to keep the mountain, the ancestors of Taohua Village put in a lot of effort.

The mountain in Taohua Village is pretty good, and the villagers are not short of firewood, but there are always people from other villages who come secretly to chop firewood from time to time, especially in autumn and winter.

It’s not enough that they are chopping wood, the key point is that they are also chopping down trees. Can these trees be chopped down casually?

But it's just a small matter, and it's not appropriate to make a big fuss about it. It's a good opportunity to take advantage of this incident to make an example of someone.

Therefore, what Chief Shen said not only gave the village chief a way out, but also attributed the tribe members' beating the kidnapper to death to an accident, implying that the law does not hold everyone responsible, and finally attributed the incident to the shock after being provoked by outsiders.

The reason why he acted as a peacemaker was because there were two families with the surname Shen among them, so naturally he had to speak up to protect them.

The village chief's expression softened. "Since that man is dead, Liu Gu must not be let off lightly. Otherwise, let's hand him over to the government for punishment!"

The head of the Gu clan said with a cold face, "No, the kidnapper is already dead. If we hand him over to the government, it will bring up a lot of problems. Although our Gu clan is not a big clan, we will never allow people to betray their own clan. Let's deal with it according to clan rules!"

To say that it is a clan rule is just the temporary statement made by Patriarch Gu.

If the Gu family really had any strict family rules, I'm afraid Widow Liu would have been thrown into the pond and the pig cage countless times.

When he said this, Patriarch Shen almost couldn't help rolling his eyes.

What about the clan rules?

Saying it is the same as not saying it.

No matter how he complained in his heart, Clan Leader Shen still cooperated and said, "What Clan Leader Yi Gu meant was..."

The two of them can be considered old friends, and they have cooperated well both internally and externally.

Based on his understanding of Patriarch Gu, this Widow Liu might have no way to survive.

If Widow Liu was a peaceful person, the worst that could happen was that she would be driven out of the village. After all, her son was in the town, so it wasn't like she had no chance of survival.

But widow Liu was a fickle woman, causing great trouble in the village, and her romantic affairs were spread everywhere. This had a huge impact on the Gu family!

Gu Zhaoming is already a scholar, and no one can predict what his future will be like. No matter what happens, it can be said that the Gu family has passed down farming and studying from generation to generation.

But the father-in-law of the only scholar in the clan happened to be involved with such a woman. If the scholar told others about it, he would be inferior to others.

When Patriarch Gu saw that Widow Liu had gone to live with her son and was not in the village, he didn't say anything.

It's only been a short time since she came back, but she's causing trouble again. I'm worried that I can't find a reason to punish her!

According to Patriarch Gu, a woman like this should be put to rest by death.

Patriarch Shen also knew a little bit about what Patriarch Gu was thinking.
