259. Chapter 258 Mazu Has the Final Say on Major Matters

Chapter 258 Mazu has the final say on major matters

About half an hour later.

The floor cage was taken to Tianhou Palace by people from both sides, and Li Duoyu checked the floor cage.

"As Zhao Dahai said, there is indeed red paint on it."

Chen Jiahao said anxiously: "Let me take a look."

He carefully looked around the cage and found that it really didn't belong to their family. When things progressed to this point, not only he was anxious, but the people in Chenjiacun were also anxious.

Because if the wrong person is arrested, the people in Chenjiacun will really not be able to hold their heads up when they see Xiasha Village in the future.

Chen Jiahao wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Maybe they deliberately painted it with paint when they stole our floor cage."

Zhao Dahai said angrily: "Bitch, I already knew you would say this. My floor cage not only has this mark, the floor cage we bought from Lao Chen was a second-hand floor cage and it was broken in many places.

There was a hole in the seventh cage, and we two brothers repaired it with nylon thread.

The halter was torn at the head and tail, and the nylon thread of the same color was gone, so we used white thread to patch it up.

There was also a broken iron frame, and we fixed it with short wooden sticks."

Zhao Dahai explained every detail of the ground cage.

This time Miao Zhu went up to inspect it in person, and then announced: "The ground cage is indeed exactly as Zhao Dahai said."

Chen Jiahao was sweating profusely and explained in a hurry: "It's possible that the two brothers stole our cage first and then put their own cage in it."

The young men who followed Jeremy Chen to beat up the Zhao brothers were sweating profusely and quickly echoed:

"Yes, the two brothers must have stolen the cage first."

After hearing this, Li Duoyu frowned and suddenly felt that these young people were going a little too far.

Before he could get angry.

As the host, Miao Zhu said sternly: "Young man, in front of Mazu, you have to present evidence, and you can't make irresponsible remarks."

What everyone didn't expect was that the two brothers swore to Mazu on the spot:

"Believer, Zhao Dahai."

"Believer, Zhao Erniu."

"I swear here, if we steal the ground cage in Chenjiacun, there will be thunder and lightning, and the boat will capsize when we go to sea in the future. We will give birth to children without buttholes, and they will choke to death when drinking water."

As soon as the oath was made.

Everyone present started talking. Any fisherman who makes a living by fishing would never dare to swear such a poisonous oath if he had done something wrong.

Zhao Dahai looked at Chen Jiahao and his group with hatred:

"I have sworn, do you dare to swear, if you wrongly accuse me, I will be hit by a ship when I go to sea."

Chen Jiahao gritted his teeth. It was dark that night, and he didn't pay much attention to the confiscated floor cages.

They didn't dare to swear at all. When the people in Chenjiacun saw this, they also understood that they were 100% wrong about this matter.

Chen Jiahao wiped the sweat from his forehead: "But our cage was obviously stolen twice. Even if it wasn't stolen by these two brothers, it was stolen by other people from your Xiasha Village."

It was okay not to say this, but as soon as he said it, the scene exploded, and the young people in Xiasha Village became angry instantly.

“Being down-to-earth, you must always rely on evidence in everything you do.”

"What do you mean it must have been stolen by us? Is it possible that someone from your own village stole it?"

"Yes, maybe you cry to catch the thief."

At this time, Li Duoyu said to Chen Jiahao and the others: "Since you arrested the wrong person and beat him up, you should see if you want to keep it private or public."

Chen Jiahao lowered his head:

"How can it be private, how can it be public?"

Li Duoyu squinted his eyes and said calmly: "It's private. That's easy. Just talk to them and the two brothers in private."

"If it's official, I'll have someone go to the town police station to go through the process. Since you beat the wrong person, you must go to the police station to report it."

The group of young people around Chen Jiahao turned pale with fright after hearing the words police station: "Brother Hao, let's keep it private."

Chen Jiahao glanced at the village council and the patriarch in a red coat: "Let's keep it private."

The Zhao brothers looked at this group of people with evil intentions, and then said, "Let's go, I will take you to a place to have a good talk."

From a stone room not far away, there were continuous screams. It seemed that the Zhao brothers did not choose to ask for money.

After hearing the sound.

The people in Chenjia Village looked ugly. Originally, they came to Xiasha Village to question the enemy, but they didn't expect the clown to be themselves.

With burning faces, everyone stood up and prepared to leave.

Li Duoyu stopped them: "It's not easy to come here. Don't leave in a hurry. Uncle Liao, I have been standing here for so long. I will prepare some tea for everyone."

Li Duoyu's uncle said: "This matter is our fault, but I have left it to you to handle, what else do you want."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Uncle, if you say this, you are a bit out of touch. I just want to talk to you about family matters."

Hearing Li Duoyu call him uncle, the old man was stunned for a moment, but he had a vague premonition of something ominous.

Li Duoyu felt that this kind of opportunity was too rare. It happened that the people in Chenjiacun were in the wrong, so now was the best time to talk.

"Everyone, it is now open. The planned economy has now become a market economy. Times are changing, and the relationship between our two villages should also move forward. What do you think?"

Li Duoyu's words shocked the elders of both villages.

The people of Chenjia Village thought that this young man would take the opportunity to make trouble and embarrass the people of Chenjia Village.

Before, the old man who told Li Duoyu about the past never thought that Li Duoyu would take the opportunity to solve this problem.

The old man couldn't help but think of two words.

Pattern!

He looked at Li Duoyu in front of him with admiration. This kid always brings surprises to them, the older generation.

However, the person in the red gown said firmly: "This is impossible. The ancestors swore a poisonous oath, and we, the younger generation, dare not disobey." Li Duoyu wanted to complain that your ancestors have turned into ashes, and you are still using the words of the dead as tokens.

"Alas, I originally wanted to say that when the typhoon comes next time, let the boats in your village come to our safe harbor, so that you won't suffer such serious losses."

Hearing this, the fishermen in Chenjia Village who have fishing boats were immediately moved. In a few months, the typhoon season will come again.

If Xiasha Village is willing to give them the shelter when the typhoon comes, it will indeed save a lot of trouble.

"In a while, the inspection team from the island country will come to our Dandan Island for inspection, and they may invest in some projects. I am still thinking about how to introduce your village."

When Li Duoyu said this, the young people in Chenjia Village became excited.

"If there is really an inspection team from the island country coming, will they come to our village at that time?"

Li Duoyu nodded: "It's hard to say, but it is tentatively scheduled to come to our Dandan Island."

"Then can we come to your village to watch at that time?"

"Of course, no problem, if you come, we will also invite you to drink tea."

"Really."

...

Under Li Duoyu's string of sugar-coated bullets, the young people in Chenjia Village were all moved.

In fact, as the economies of the two villages are getting bigger and bigger, the educated young people in Chenjia Village still have some resentment about the poisonous oath made by their ancestors.

It feels like the Qing Dynasty's closed-door policy, locking oneself in the room and watching others develop better and better.

Chen Atai took the opportunity to say: "I may not believe what Wang Dapao said, but I, Chen Atai, can still guarantee Li Duoyu's character."

Seeing that more and more people agreed, young people also stood up and advised: "Chief, the times are moving forward, and we should also change."

"The oath of the ancestors is very important, but we can't destroy the rice bowls of our descendants, we also have to eat."

"It just so happens that Xiasha Village has such a reasonable village director. Otherwise, today, let's resolve the grievances of so many years."

The old man in the red coat saw that everyone began to oppose it, and it was difficult for him to step down for a while, so he had to say: "I can promise you, but I don't have the final say on this matter. It depends on what Mazu Niangniang says."

Chen Huowang knelt in front of Mazu Niangniang, holding a wild rice plant in his hand, and muttering something.

"Our ancestors of Chenjia Village and Xiasha Village set a rule because of the water diversion canal. If Mazu agrees to reconcile our two villages, then three holy grails."

When he heard that he wanted three holy grails, Li Duoyu frowned. This old man obviously had no intention of reconciling, because the probability of three holy grails was really not high.

The old man in the red coat held the tossing wild rice, shook it, and then threw it out.

The tossing bamboo rolled twice on the red brick floor, and one yin and one yang appeared.

"It's the holy grail."

The people present cheered.

The old man then picked up the holy grail and threw it out for the second time. This time the tossing bamboo rolled very far and stopped only when it hit the red cylinder.

It's still one yin and one yang.

"It's still the holy grail."

The crowd watching the scene became excited one by one: "Another holy grail."

The young people shouted collectively:

"Another one."

The old man in the red coat was also sweating all over his forehead. If he really wanted another one, then they really had to break the oath of their ancestors and listen to Mazu.

The palms of the old man in the red coat were trembling, and he prayed in his heart that he would never take the Holy Grail again.

This time he threw it very high, but sometimes, what you fear most often comes true.

Looking at the one yin and one yang.

Many young people on the scene cheered, and Li Duoyu could not have thought that there were really three Holy Grails.

Seeing the three Holy Grails, the leader of Chenjia Village had no choice, after all, the ancestors had to listen to the words of Mazu.

"Mazu, the believers represent Chenjia Village. From now on, our two villages will no longer oppose each other, and men and women can marry."

The old man in the red coat continued: "Go to our Chen family's ancestral hall and bring the talisman paper that our ancestors swore."

About an hour later, an old man brought a piece of talisman paper that was a little old and burned it in front of Mazu.

The century-old grievances between the two villages were also written off with the burning of this talisman paper.

The people of the two villages really didn't expect that they almost fought yesterday, and today the two villages reconciled.

The happiest people here are the couples who are having an underground relationship, because now they can get married openly.

A young man from Xiasha Village said to a woman from Chenjia Village: "Ahui, we don't have to run away. I will ask the matchmaker to go to your house to propose marriage tomorrow."

"Damn, you are so quick. I will go to Chenjia Village to find a woman tomorrow."

The young man from Chenjia Village glared and said: "No way. There are more bachelors in our village than you. If we want to find someone, we will go to your village to find one."

"Come on, let's hurt each other."

Chen Huiying, who was standing by, had tears in her eyes when she saw the two villages reconcile. Old Li comforted her, "Find some time, I'll accompany you to the Chen Family Ancestral Hall to see your parents."

"You are a man with some conscience, but your son is still the best."

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
