Chapter 212 A world with more men and fewer women 12

"But if we report to the official, if the offending officer takes their money, I'm afraid we will provoke public outrage." Ma Er's father frowned.

Previously, their family was not afraid of causing public wrath because their son was violent, but everyone else was timid. Even if they had any dissatisfaction, they did not dare to get ahead of their family and make trouble, so they were not afraid.

But it's different now. Several of their very powerful sons in their prime are gone. Now the older ones are older and the younger ones are younger. There are far fewer people who are afraid of them, so they are naturally afraid of provoking public anger.

This was also where they were in a dilemma. In fact, when they clamored to report it to the police earlier, they just wanted to scare the murderer, who they thought was He Anran. They wanted He Anran to apologize to them. Of course, they also had to tell Li Zheng what they had said before. They thought this was a legitimate request, marrying their dead sons and kneeling in mourning for them. After all, their sons were all dead. If they wanted them to simply forget about it, that would be impossible. They just wanted to Scare An Ran over and listen to what they say. When she really gets married, you can use your status as an elder to deal with her. Otherwise, the two parties have nothing to do with each other now, but you won't be able to deal with her based on your status as an elder. Then you will have to deal with her. Watching his son die in vain.

Who knew that Li Zheng had clearly explained the stakes after reporting to the official to the whole village? Now, even those who originally wanted to wait and see, in case the Ma family really reported to the official and attracted the police officers to go to the countryside to search, naturally they would not I will continue to watch from the sidelines, but I will come over and start making noises.

"If we don't really report it to the official, we will talk to the villagers about our idea, saying that we just want the dead girl from the He family to marry our son and kneel in mourning for our son. As long as this is achieved, we will not report it to the official , if they don't help us and force the He family's dead girl to agree, then we will report it to the official." Ma San's father said.

What Ma San dad said was in line with the wishes of the other people, so they immediately agreed, opened the door, and came outside.

When the villagers saw the old men from the Ma family coming out, they swarmed up and asked in all directions: "Dad Ma, are you really going to report to the government? If you really do this, we won't comply."

"That's right, if you attract the police and cause damage to our family, I will ask you to pay for it!"

Dad Ma saw everyone shouting and was angry. He thought if his five middle-aged sons were gone, would they dare to block the door of his house? The angrier he became, the more he hated the murderer of his son, He Anran, so he immediately said: "It's okay if we don't report to the official, then let the little girl from the He family marry our son, and then we will kneel in mourning for our son." , otherwise, our son’s life would have been in vain.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, so some people who felt that this way of handling it would not have to worry about the losses suffered by the officers when they went to the countryside stopped shouting, but some people who understood reminded: "You have evidence that it was the girl from the He family who did it. Really? Otherwise, the girl from the He family would be happy?"

Set aside the past when the He family was a coward and the Ma family's sons were not dead and the Ma family was powerful. Even if their family did not do this, in order to appease the Ma family's anger, the villagers forced the He family's girls to marry into the Ma family. Not a big deal.

But now, He Anran is a member of the Lian family. What if the Ma family brothers were really killed by others, and they forced her to marry them. Then she gets angry and kills them secretly?

They were afraid that the Ma family would report to the government and send their servants to the countryside, but they were even more afraid that the girl from the He family would cause trouble for them. After all, if they stopped them, the Ma family might not report to the government. But if the little girl from the He family was really the murderer, they would kill the Ma family. The five brothers, seeing how they dare to force her to marry the Ma family, will definitely kill them. In other words, the Ma family may not report it to the official, and they may not necessarily suffer losses, but the little girl from the He family will definitely kill people. Comparing the two Next, they naturally didn't dare to offend the little girl of the He family, so they reminded her like this.

After all, if there is evidence, it would be better. They approached the He family to make this proposal, which is reasonable and well-founded. But if there is no evidence, it would be called unreasonable for them to come to the door. They were originally afraid of He Anran and did not dare to come to the door. Naturally, they didn't dare to make trouble unreasonably, so someone asked this question at this time. As long as the Ma family said there was no evidence, they could justly reject the Ma family's request.

So when they say this now, it's not that they really plan to settle a score with He Anran, but they want to find an upright excuse not to go.

The old men of the Ma family didn't know the reason. They really had no evidence, but they naturally didn't want the matter to be settled like this, so they immediately said: "Who else could it be if she didn't do it? Our son teased her that time, and she It’s normal to hold a grudge and want to kill them. Besides, in the entire village, besides her ability, who else can kill our five sons at once without any movement?”

They didn't know it was the sequelae of being beaten that day, and thought he was killed temporarily by An Ran, so they said this.

"Can't it be that your sons died on their own, instead of being killed by others?" someone said.

"If only one person died, we might not have such suspicions, but five people died at the same time. Do you think it is possible that they died of natural causes? They must have been killed! If you really don't believe it, we can go Find a doctor with good medical skills in the county to take a look at them, and he will definitely say that they were beaten to death." Dad Ma said.

"Anyway, no matter how they died, you have no evidence to prove that it was the little girl from the He family who did it. In this case, don't talk nonsense about this matter. We will not help you force her to marry your son. , but you can’t go to the county to report it to the officials. If you do this and cause everyone to suffer losses, we will only ask you anyway. Anyway, this is the end of what we are talking about. What do you want to do? You can see for yourself. Let’s do it.”

"Yes, you are not allowed to report it to the official, otherwise if there is any loss in the future, we will come to settle the account with you!"

Everyone was talking like this, and the Ma family brothers turned pale with anger. Once again they deeply felt that their sons were gone and their lives in the village were sad. In fact, this was tit for tat. , when they bullied others before, they didn't think about other people's feelings, but now they just let them feel it.

No matter what they were thinking, the villagers left after threatening several members of the Ma family.

As for the old men of the Ma family, they really shrank back for fear of arousing the anger of the villagers.

While there was a commotion in the village, several brothers from the He family, Uncle He and others were also asking if An Ran had done this.

Of course An Ran couldn't admit it, so he immediately said to Brother He and others: "I didn't go to Ma's house. You are all martial arts practitioners. It's impossible for you not to know whether I left home that night."

She did not go to the Ma family. This was a fact. After all, she was not the five Ma family brothers who were killed that day, but the killing move she had hidden before.
