The villagers who had been lying down to rest were frightened by the piercing screams and sat up.
"Where does this scream come from? It's so scary in the middle of the night."
"Could this sound be killing someone?"
...
People made random guesses, and took sticks and other self-defense tools, and went out to see where the scream was coming from. Where did it come from.
At the same time, the Lu family also heard screams.
The Lu family's house has been expanded several times and is closer to the wasteland, so the screams can be heard more clearly.
Thinking about what her daughter-in-law had told her before nightfall, Su's heart was beating wildly. She threw a coat over her body and hurried to find Jiang Tangtang, "Tangtang, did that sound come from the wasteland of our house? No way. A dead person?"
Jiang Tangtang said: "Mom, don't worry, no one will die!" However, you will have to suffer a lot for the crime of living.
Mrs. Su felt a little relieved when she heard that no one would die, but she was still worried: "What kind of mechanism did you install in the vegetable field? Will our own workers be fine if they go?"
Jiang Tangtang said: "Mom, don't worry, I will I have already told you that our own workers will be fine if they go to work." And with today's lesson, no one will dare to take advantage of her vegetable garden in the future.
When Jiang Tangtang, Su Shi and others rushed to the vegetable field, villagers in the village who were frightened by the screams also rushed to the scene with hoes, sickles and other self-defense agricultural tools.
Seeing Ge Hongxia lying on the edge of the Lu family's vegetable field, her hair disheveled and shaking, the villagers all had shocked looks on their faces.
"What's wrong with that daughter of the Ge family? Why is she lying here?"
"Looking like this, she must have been bullied, right?"
"What should we do? Didn't she just find a respectable husband? We are about to get married now. After something like this, can the man still want her?"
...
Ge Shuanniang was so angry after hearing what people said, she angrily cursed at the villagers: "Your daughter was bullied. Well, my daughter is doing well, why is she being bullied? I think you just don't want to see me applauding you, and you don't want to see my daughter talking about a good family and deliberately ruining my daughter's reputation."
The scolded villager immediately retorted unhappily: "No. She was bullied, so what happened to her? She couldn't go to the wasteland to cool off in the middle of the night, right?"
"No, everyone in Zhuangzi heard the cry just now. If something hadn't happened, how could she? Making such a cry?"
"That's because...because..." Ge Shuanniang was worried about both her daughter's health and her daughter's reputation. In her anxiety, she suddenly saw Jiang Tangtang, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she ran towards Jiang Tangtang, "You witch? , my daughter was harmed by you. You pay for my daughter!"
Jiang Tangtang avoided her and said innocently: "Aunt Ge, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. I was sleeping well at home when I heard the screams. Come check with everyone, what does your daughter's accident have to do with me?"
"It's you! You witch—" Ge Hongxia came to Lu's vegetable patch to steal vegetables, and Ge Shuanniang knew something about it. She looked at where her daughter was lying, then at the row of bamboo fences, and gritted her teeth and said, "There is a ghost in your fence that caused my daughter to be like this!"
"My fence is three feet away from the ground. If If you walk properly, you won't touch the fence of my house at all, unless someone has bad intentions and wants to sneak into my vegetable patch!"
Jiang Tangtang said coldly: "Then I would like to ask Aunt Ge, your daughter is here in the middle of the night. If you don't sleep well at home, why are you going to my vegetable patch?"
Mrs. Su continued what her daughter-in-law said: "No, what are you doing climbing the fence of my vegetable patch when you're up so late at night? Could it be that you want to sneak into my vegetable plot to steal vegetables in the dead of night?"
Ge Shuanniang blushed. , put his hands on his hips and cursed: "Who went to your vegetable field to steal vegetables? It's
not like I don't have vegetables at home, who cares about your food." "Your food is different from the food in my field!" Su Shi said leisurely. : "The vegetables in my field are all rare varieties of vegetables that my daughter-in-law has taken great pains to find from overseas. It is not an exaggeration to say that one vegetable is worth a fortune. You came to my vegetable field secretly at night, and your intention is really It makes people suspicious!"
After hearing this, people started whispering. Someone even said: "Sister-in-law Ge, your daughter is not coveting food from the Lu family. Could it be that she secretly hid in the wasteland to meet her lover?"
"Bah! You are the only one who knows your lover. My daughter is obviously looking for chickens. The chicken has gone to the Lu family's vegetable patch, why don't you let me find it?"
Ge Shuanniang slapped her thigh and cursed: "The Lu family doesn't know what kind of magic they used on this fence to make my daughter look like this. It looks like you don't distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, help them, and you won't know how powerful they are until you bump into them one day. Don't regret it then."
The villagers who had been talking about blaming Ge Hongxia's family fell silent instantly.
They had all heard the scream that Ge Hongxia just made. If there really is a ghost behind the fence of the Lu family's vegetable field, what if someone harms them one day?
Seeing the fear of the villagers, Jiang Tangtang said quietly: "There are ghosts in my fence, and I will only deal with those who have evil thoughts and misbehavior. If you don't believe me, try it."
The villagers did not dare to move, and finally Xia Zhirong gritted his teeth. , took the lead in reaching out and touching the fence.
Jiang Tangtang had already pressed the off button on the remote control hidden in his armhole. When Xia Zhirong touched it, nothing happened.
The villagers touched it one after another, but nothing happened. Ge Shuanniang didn't believe in evil, so she also reached out to touch the fence.
The moment she touched it, Jiang Tangtang secretly turned on the switch.
So, everyone only saw the moment when Ge Shuanniang touched the fence, they rolled their eyes, trembled all over, and screamed.
Everyone felt that the fence of the Lu family's vegetable plot had magical powers. While they were more and more in awe, they also looked down upon Ge Hongxia and her daughter.
They all said: "Hongxia's mother and daughter are broken from the root. You see, everyone can touch the fence but it will be fine. Only hers will cause trouble if they touch it."
"They must have bad intentions and offend the gods. Even God can see it. " If you don't go, they will be punished."
...
Without Jiang Tangtang saying anything, the villagers convicted the Ge family and their daughter.
Ge Shuanniang was so shocked that her eyes were blinded, and her whole body was dumbfounded. Although she is usually fierce and takes advantage of everything, she is actually most afraid of ghosts and gods. It was clear that everyone was fine touching the fence just now, but when she touched it, it felt like being hit with a stick. It hurt so much that her fingers were numb...
She was so scared that she shrank into a ball and did not dare to say another word.
Both mother and daughter of the Ge family looked the same, as if they were stupid, trembling non-stop...
Before the next day, the Lu family's vegetable plot was guarded by supernatural powers, and those who had evil intentions and wanted to do harm to the Lu family would be punished. News of the gods' punishment spread.
