Chapter 124: Chapter 124: You Dared to Defame the Old Man?_1
"Village Chief, are these allegations true? If everything is real indeed, Qin Yi should lodge a formal complaint to the county government office and request the County Magistrate for a thorough investigation!"
Qin Yi’s face held an icy demeanor as he spoke each word distinctively.
The Village Chief quivered slightly upon seeing the stern expression on Qin Yi’s face.
His old face flushed red.
"You, you shouldn’t listen to her nonsense! There is no such matter..."
"Oh! Is that so?"
Qin Yi said calmly. Beneath his calm demeanor, a storm was gathering in his eyes.
"Of, of course! Cough, cough."
The Village Chief lowered his head and took a few deep breaths to compose himself, then said gently, "My worthy nephew Qin Yi, things may not be as they seem to you! Mrs. Qin-Chen was delirious and nonsensical. The allegations she made are baseless. Don’t worry, I, as the old man, will surely uphold justice! I’ll not let my niece suffer false accusations!"
He coughed a few times, awkwardly adjusting his clothing.
"In that case, my thanks to you."
Qin Yi made a slight bow, his tone revealing hints of aloofness and contempt.
As time passed, Su Pan’er’s surgery was nearing its end, and she was currently dressing Ke’er’s wound.
She applied the bandage, then fixed it with a splint.
Her movements were smooth and graceful!
Those who were initially distracted by the Bama pig gradually regained their senses, feeling somewhat puzzled by their surroundings and their own actions.
As the village administrators looked at each other, they saw a look of surprise in each other’s eyes.
With a fierce face, they lunged at Su Pan’er.
"Stop!"
The Village Chief yelled angrily to stop them: "Who told you to go after Su Pan’er? She attempted to save a life and bore the name of a criminal. You are not allowed to treat her poorly!"
"Village Chief, this..."
Everyone looked stunned.
Even Su Pan’er, who was tying a bandage around Ke’er’s leg, paused, and quickly raised her head.
A look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
This Village Chief... truly outdid himself!
Mrs. Qin-Chen was also gradually awakening, and hearing the Village Chief’s words, she looked incredulous! How could everything have changed so drastically?
She immediately cried out! "Village Chief, why is this? We had agreed..."
"Silence!"
The Village Chief cut off her unfinished words, glanced at her, and said righteously, "An eloquent woman like you has deceived me. How could I have made such a wrong decision earlier? Fortunately, I have come to my senses just in time to prevent a disaster!"
Mrs. Qin-Chen was stunned and at a complete loss.
"Everyone, seize this troublesome woman at once!"
The Village Chief gave the command in a serious tone, his sinister eyes fixed on Mrs. Qin-Chen’s face, as if he was wishing he could eat her alive.
If it weren’t for this woman’s absurd reasoning, he would not have landed in such a passive position!
The village administrators looked at each other and firmly apprehended Mrs. Qin-Chen, their faces worn with strange expressions.
"Village Chief, Village Chief, I’m being wronged!"
Mrs. Qin-Chen, with a baffled face, cried out injustice: "Village Chief, it was indeed Su Pan’er who deliberately broke my brother’s leg, but instead of grabbing her, why are you grabbing me?"
"Hmph!"
The Village Chief spoke solemnly: "I have discovered the truth just now. It is you who first deceived Su Pan’er and defrauded her money. Later when you found out that the big bed was valuable, you harbored malicious intent. Surprisingly, you plotted against her, hoping to use me to frame Su Pan’er! I am a sensible person, of course, I would conduct a rigorous investigation!"
Mrs. Qin-Chen was left dumbfounded.
How, how did he know?
"My nephew Qin Yi."
The village chief paid no heed to Mrs. Qin-Chen’s thoughts, turning back to Qin Yi with a smile: "You’re a scholar, a reasonable man. Please elaborate on the terrible deeds this shrew and her brother did upon arriving at your house. This old man will certainly handle it justly!"
Qin Yi shook his head, offering a light smile, and recounted the events from before.
The village chief nodded: "I see! So they forced themselves into the residence and injured others first. Miss Su Pan’er, in her righteous indignation, defended herself justly. This is all just as this old man expected, this shrew and her brother, Chen Laoshi, stirred up all the trouble!"
His demeanor suggested he’d anticipated this turn of events.
Mrs. Qin-Chen was completely caught off guard! Mouth agape.
Surprise writ across her face, her complexion was now ashen. Where was the pompous look she had on arrival?
Su Pan’er looked tired as she put away all the surgical tools she had used, noticing that Ke’er was still sound asleep.
Upon hearing the village chief’s words, she quickly compared the situation in her mind.
In accordance with her usual style, she was determined to create a huge fuss with this crowd!
As of now, Ke’er’s leg couldn’t be moved, and if it were to sustain even the slightest further injury, not even divine intervention could save it! There would be plenty of time to deal with Mrs. Qin-Chen and the others later.
However, at this moment, her priority was to secure the safest environment for Ke’er’s recovery.
"The village chief truly has keen discernment! Worthy of being the parent official of our district."
With this thought, she then softened her tone: "However, in my anger at the time, I indeed acted somewhat severely. I could treat Chen Laoshi’s leg, but I hope that this matter can be resolved once and for all. We, of the modest Qin Family, can’t withstand such disturbances!"
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
The village chief could not help but admire: "Nephew Qin Yi, you’re truly lucky! To have married such a reasonable and virtuous wife!"
Qin Yi gave a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, he never expected the village chief to handle matters this way. However, it seemed that the ordeal was headed towards a positive conclusion.
He raised his fist in salute: "The village chief is fair in judgment, for this, Qin Yi offers his gratitude!"
"Fair? Where on earth is the fairness?"
Mrs. Qin-Chen suddenly cried out: "Village chief! I am the plaintiff, when is it allowed to hit the plaintiff? This court session is not being fair!"
"This old man always administers justice strictly and honestly, how dare you slander me?"
The village chief was immediately incensed!
"It seems you’re still unrepentant! Ignorant fool, while heaven tolerates offenses it didn’t provoke, it never forgives those self-induced! You have repeatedly slandered others, it seems this old man has to teach you a lesson, lest you harm others in the future! Guards, slap her until she sobers up and recognizes her faults!"
He had been bottling up anger inside him this whole time!
This old shrew delivered herself into punishment, who else should he punish if not her?
Su Pan’er’s lips twitched repetitively, this village chief was truly a high-profile individual masquerading as an upright official!
But it worked out well anyway!
Doesn’t an evil person need an evil person to discipline them, after all?
"Yes, village chief."
The two village administrators holding Mrs. Qin-Chen’s arms pulled her arms back, forcing her involuntarily to kneel down on the ground.
Slap!
One of the village administrators rolled up his sleeve, raised his hand, and gave her a hard slap across the face.
Slap! Slap, slap...
The appalling sound of slaps echoed without pause.
Off to the side, Mrs. Qin-Li involuntarily shrank back.
The citizenry do not contend with officials!
Ever since the village chief appeared, she dared not to speak rashly, fearing to somehow end up being beaten. She couldn’t believe that the usually shrewd Mrs. Qin-Chen from the Old Second Family was acting so foolishly and voluntarily stepping forward to be punished! She felt nothing but contempt for her in her heart.
What despicable behavior!
After a series of continuous slaps, Mrs. Qin-Chen’s face swelled up and her mouth went askew. Blood streamed from her nose down her face, making her a pitiful sight.
"Village Chief, Village Chief, I beg of you, have mercy for the sake of my husband ..."
