Chapter 369 too soon
Uncle Six is really lacking in virtue if he wants to talk about it, but if he wants to talk about IQ, it’s really online.
When it comes to understanding current affairs, his son Miao Lao Er is definitely not his opponent. After listening to his father’s words, Miao Lao Er knew Shi Yan’s identity and felt that he was Xu Laowu who was not on the stage.
But Uncle Six had already seen their situation clearly through Shi Yan’s words and demeanor, and after hesitating for a while, he said, “If you want to know anything, just ask!”
At least, he could hear it from Xu Laowu’s words. This man just wanted to know some secrets, but he didn’t want their lives. He kept the green hills and was not afraid of running out of firewood.
Besides, whether to tell the truth or not, isn’t it all based on one’s own mouth?
He was able to say this because he explained to Shi Yan the reason why he was here, although it was unclear who secretly attacked their father and son in the first half of the night.
But that person is definitely not the person in front of him.
Those who could follow them silently, and successfully enter the small courtyard where Liu’s house was located, and finally overshadowed their father and son, must be someone who was very familiar with their whereabouts and who knew the layout of Liu’s small courtyard very well.
Here, we need to step on the spot in the village in advance and wait for the opportunity, then this person must be a familiar face in the village, so as not to alert the villagers.
To be able to do this, there is still this motivation. Uncle Six only thinks of one person, Yao Shi, who is becoming more and more disobedient and will never return.
At present, it is not known what happened after Yao Shi knocked them out, and what his purpose was, but what he was sure about was that Shi Yan was just a lucky person who just happened to find a bargain.
Because according to Xu Laowu’s ability, it is absolutely impossible to do the above things without knowing the ghost.
Shi Yan didn’t know that this old guy made up a lot of brains after a while, and automatically filled in the parts that he didn’t explain, and the logic was very self-consistent.
So he moved a chair and made a loud rubbing sound on the ground, and the scalp of the person listening was numb. After the chair fell to the ground, he sat on it, resting his chin with one hand, and said calmly, “Well, I want to come to this matter. Asking you is the right person. I hope you don’t let me down.
I just wanted to know, why did you and Yao Shi make up their minds to start calculating his family property since my father-in-law was still alive?
Don’t say anything about making money, I know very well how much my father-in-law has, and you know very well, whether it’s worth it or not, you are so aggressive, we are all understanding people, let’s talk openly! ”
Uncle Six looked at Shi Yan with a surprised expression, but didn’t say anything, but second Miao, who was next to him, snorted coldly, opened his mouth and said, “Let’s look at his family property, that’s to look down on him, to lift him up, who is it? Tell him to be ignorant, he deserves it!
Don’t you want to give us a penny? That’s alright, I’ll let him see it, even if he’s dead, the things I want have to be delivered to me obediently! ”
Uncle Six was bound with his hands and feet. He didn’t look angry when he heard the words, but he scolded, “Second!”
When it was over, he raised his head and said to Shi Yan, “I’m laughing, I’ve been spoiled by me since I was a child, and I haven’t suffered any hardships.
Shi Yan nodded honestly: “It’s true, don’t you want to say that he’s just a thirty-year-old child, not sensible, I hope my junior will be more tolerant?”
Uncle Six was choked for a moment. He was a very protective person. Otherwise, their family would not have grown from a nameless person in the clan to the point where the clan leader has to retreat.
Shi Yan knew what the old guy was thinking at a glance, and said very seriously: “The elders protect the short, the younger will inevitably not grow up, let alone a thirty-year-old child, even an eighty-year-old child, that is still an ignorant child. I know.”
Seeing that the old guy couldn’t get up in one breath, he moved his toes and gestured to Second Miao: “Continue.”
Miao Lao Er really despised Xu Lao Wu. He had heard this person’s reputation before, and his heart was full of contempt. Now that he has seen it with his own eyes, although he is a prisoner, it is very likely that Xu Lao Wu will end his life on impulse.
But he still doesn’t take Shi Yan seriously. He is very arrogant and naive. In this respect, he is indeed as naive as a thirty-year-old child.
So the tone of the exit was high, full of contempt: “That was seven or eight years ago, I remember that at that time, my eldest brother showed a marriage at home.
The woman is a concubine of the Fucheng Tongju family. The young lady took the initiative to see the character of the eldest brother. The whole family is very happy. ”
The last sentence is to ask his father and sixth uncle.
Speaking of this matter, Uncle Liu is also very proud now: “Yes, people like us who are farming and reading are considered rich in the village, and their life is very decent, but compared with the adults who pass the sentence, it is not a star and a half. Son.
In order to satisfy the lord Tongju and the aunt, he really went bankrupt, and even borrowed money to get a wife for your eldest brother. ”
Second Miao nodded and got his father’s affirmation, so he continued: “That’s it, sister-in-law has been in the door for less than a month, and she took advantage of her family’s relationship to recommend me to a well-respected gentleman in Fucheng Academy.
But to learn art from a teacher, especially to a teacher who teaches the industry, how can you not give people a decent meeting ceremony?
Even if the husband doesn’t care about these false rituals, he can’t make the sister-in-law who was introduced in the middle look bad. Later, in her parents’ house and between sisters, she can’t raise her head because of a little respect for the teacher, right? ”
This is another question from Shi Yan, and I don’t know what’s wrong.
Shi Yan was noncommittal.
Before waiting for Shi Yan’s answer, Second Miao pouted boringly, and continued, “But at that time, the family couldn’t even take out an extra piece of copper, so it was really embarrassing.
Later, my father thought of Mr. Miao, who was doing business in Bai’an County, that is, your father-in-law. If you think about it, everyone is still a relative who has not been out of the five clothes. It’s not ashamed to come to borrow money for studying! ”
Second Miao couldn’t help but bring anger on his face when he said that, with a bit of gnashing of teeth: “But your father-in-law doesn’t want to borrow money, so don’t borrow it, who makes us poor and short-minded?
But he shouldn’t, he shouldn’t point at my nose and say I’m an inhuman beast in front of my face, making me disgraced. ”
Shi Yan raised his eyebrows: “Aren’t you?”
Miao Lao Er rubbed his neck and said, “It’s just some innocuous little hobby that men know, what does it have to do with human relations? I’ll say this in front of you, and I’ll say it in front of everyone. I can still pat my chest and say that!”
Shi Yan didn’t bother with him about this kind of thing: “Continue.”
“Hmph, without him, butcher Zhang, can I still eat pigs with hair? After coming out of your father-in-law’s house, I met Yao Shi who went to Bai’an County to buy goods, and we hit it off.”
Needless to say, Shi Yan could have guessed the rest. It was Yao Shi who would go to the camp and take the opportunity to catch up with the second child of Miao. The small businessman had always prepared emergency money, and he was able to lend it to him at that time to solve his urgent needs.
And second Miao must have hated his father-in-law at that time, and after that, he pushed the boat along the flow and made plans, until the last few shopkeepers swept away the family property and ran away.
Second Miao was very proud: “The news that Miao Fenghua’s girl is gone was also passed on to the clan by me, and it was also the one that I pushed the clan members to your house to make trouble.
At that time, he made me disgraced, and the reputation of inhumanity almost reached my husband’s ears, ruining my bright future. I let him experience the feeling of a broken home.
It’s even between us. ”
Miao Lao Er said it very calmly, without any intention of concealing it. I don’t know whether it was because there were too many ingredients in broken jars, or if he was such a careless temperament.
But in Shi Yan’s eyes, it was completely different: “Sure enough, as long as you don’t have a sense of shame, other people’s worldly concepts can’t help you.”
Second Miao had a bit of this meaning.
It can be seen that the second child Miao did not lie, which means that the Miao family can have today because of the quarrel between the old master Miao and the second child.
Knowing this, Shi Yan didn’t want to make any unnecessary comments at all, so he got up and strode away from here. Shi Yan really didn’t want to stay with this father and son.
Leaving the two behind him screaming and cursing.
“Xu Laowu, where the **** are you going? Let us go first!”
“Come back quickly! Otherwise, Grandpa will chop you into meat sauce to feed the dog! You little beast!”
The two kept struggling. For some unknown reason, the rope that had been sturdy before and the breathless rope tied to the body suddenly loosened a lot, and Uncle Six easily pulled it off.
No matter how much, the two of course want to leave here first, and then find some clothes to wear on their bodies.
Unexpectedly, the door of the room could not be opened, so the second child Miao tried to slam it, but the door didn’t move, but he fell on his back.
After a lot of tossing and exhaustion, Uncle Six squatted on the ground with difficulty, looked at his horrific lower body, and asked his son hesitantly, “It doesn’t hurt much, why does Dad feel a little dizzy?”
It’s okay not to say it, but the second Miao also felt a little breathless and began to feel dizzy.
Hearing the sound coming from a distance, Shi Yan snorted and laughed. The two people inside probably did not expect that the dark room just now, except for an oil lamp, the rest of the room that did not see the light of the sun was actually in the courtyard where Liu lived. .
They thought they knew the place well, and never thought that after the window was covered with a shading cloth, they didn’t even recognize it at all. Probably they thought they took them out of Liu’s yard and brought them to something unknown. place.
That’s why I was able to shout without hesitation.
“Tsk, that’s really not good. I thought I could hold on to the whole village to save me, but I’m dizzy?”
The corpse that had been brought back from the mass grave was deliberately detoured into Liu’s room. In order to help the two get out of trouble as soon as possible, before leaving, Shi Yan kindly set a fire.
After confirming that the fire started, the Liu family’s house was the first to burn. The Miao family’s father and son’s room was very safe, so he nodded with satisfaction.
He turned around and did not leave, but deliberately alerted several watchdogs in the village.
In the quiet night, chickens and dogs jumped, and people from every household came out to check the situation. They soon found that the fire was blazing into the sky, and the villagers rushed to put out the fire.
The villagers didn’t want to save Liu’s slut, but were afraid that there would be other men in Liu’s yard who were happy and happy. Liu’s family is not important, but no matter how unsatisfactory a man is, he is the backbone of his own family, and nothing can go wrong!
Therefore, in some families where the men were not at home tonight, the women were completely anxious, and they were more anxious than others, and rushed in desperately.
For a time, the scene was extremely chaotic. Men and women, young and old, moved. Those who fetched water fetched water, and those who carried sand carried sand. Who hasn’t had a relative who has visited here?
The husband of this family, it is impossible to say that he is the son-in-law of that family, the in-law of that family, can he still watch him be burned alive inside?
They simply didn’t waste their hard work. Before the fire reached the main house, the people in a village were crowded and rescued the people inside.
But after being rescued, everyone was dumbfounded. Liu’s room was left with only broken walls and ruins. From the remaining warmth and mess, everyone silently moved out a corpse whose appearance had long been unclear. .
It can be seen that the death is miserable, lying on the ground, and under the illumination of the surrounding fire, you can also see that he is spitting oil, and many people vomited on the spot.
But what made people want to vomit but didn’t dare to vomit was that they found the naked sixth uncle and his family Erlang in another room that had not been burned.
The two of them both collapsed to the ground, and they have not woken up yet. They were placed in the courtyard, and no one dared to step forward. After a while, the heart-piercing cries of the old lady of the Miao family and his second daughter-in-law could be heard from the crowd.
The man in his family stepped forward and covered the two of them with scribbled clothes, and the whole family carried them home silently.
From start to finish, I couldn’t keep my head up.
But after they left, the hearts of the rest of the people exploded, and the scene just now was clearly seen by the hundreds of old and young men in the village.
The father and son appeared in Liu’s yard in the middle of the night, what were they doing? Everyone knows that.
Although I didn’t expect the father and son to have this kind of virtue in private, if it was as simple as this, both men and women would be relieved.
The men thought to themselves, sure enough, everyone looks like a ball, and they pretend to be serious on the surface, and the women outside give them one more look.
The women thought to themselves, there is really no cat in the world that doesn’t steal fishy. I really think that the women of the sixth uncle’s family are lucky, the mother-in-law is in love, the husband is pampered, and they never mess around outside. I don’t know how many people are jealous at night and can’t sleep. Feeling, I can’t wait to change with their women.
It turned out to be nothing more than that, they were all knocked out teeth and swallowed blood, no one was more noble than anyone else, it just depends on who can pretend.
But the problem is not so simple, and the crowd discussed it privately.
“This, if Sixth Uncle and Erlang really want to taste Liu’s, it’s fair. But we can see clearly, Liu’s she didn’t share a house with Sixth Uncle at all.
Liu Shi was locked in the house and burned to coke, and the fire in the house of Sixth Uncle and the others was about to burn. ”
“I saw that Erlang and Uncle Six were not wearing a single piece of clothes, and they were covered in white flowers. They were embarrassed to death. When I went in, Erlang leaned on Uncle Six and fainted, holding hands together. I don’t know what they were doing before we came…”
The words are such words, and the facts are also such facts, but people say it like this, no matter how you listen to it, it doesn’t make much sense.
“This, could it be, you say, is it Erlang and Uncle Liu who came here on purpose to cover up the Liu family, let us think they came for the Liu family…”
“Nonsense! Uncle Six is not that kind of person! Erlang is not even like that! Put away your filthy thoughts!”
“What’s dirty? We’re talking about someone else doing dirty things? My second kid rushed to the front and saw with his own eyes that Uncle Six was injured and wrapped in gauze. The blood oozing from the wound was on the ground. If you go in later, you may still see it!
Who knows what the father and son are fiddling with without clothes on? snort! ”
Originally, the big guy hadn’t thought about it in this regard, but when he said it half-heartedly, he couldn’t help but follow this person’s words.
I don’t know which daring kid just exposed things to his eyes.
The grandson of the patriarch saw that the faces of the big guys changed, nodded with satisfaction, and resolutely shrank his neck and slipped away.
The patriarch’s son who was standing in front of the crowd saw this, his eyes swept across the crowd with seriousness, and he warned sternly: “I’m all my own here today, so you know what to say and what not to say?
Even if the meat is rotten, it will be rotten in your own pot! If you let outsiders hear the slightest bit of bad words, think about how your married daughter can get a foothold in her husband’s house! Think about your sons and grandsons who haven’t married your daughter-in-law yet, who would dare to marry your daughter-in-law into the village?
Over the years, everyone has done very well. I hope to make persistent efforts in the future. In the past few decades, how famous the reputation of our Miaojia Village has been and how much convenience it has brought to you. I don’t need to say more about this, right?
Let’s go, let’s all go, what happened tonight was caused by Yao Shi’s concubine accidentally knocking over the candlestick. Fortunately, no innocent people were injured, which is also a blessing.
A few mothers-in-law came out to help deal with Liu’s funeral, and we couldn’t lose the reputation of our Miao Village’s benevolence, so let’s go! ”
It seems that he is thinking of the interests of the whole village, but in fact, every sentence is to nail the sixth uncle to the pillar of shame, completely confirming the crimes of the sixth uncle and his son, and people can’t find the wrong.
When the patriarch’s son said this, the minds of many women present loosened: “It’s a good thing that Liu’s scourge is gone. In the future, the old lady doesn’t have to worry about it every night. The family killed thousands of knives and sent them here, I hate it when I think about it!”
Speaking of which, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes.
The smile in the patriarch’s son’s eyes could no longer be hidden, and the other child who was making trouble in the crowd said: “You did a good job, if the Sixth Uncle’s family were present today, Dad would never have acted like this. .
But when such a thing happened, their family couldn’t care about it! ”
“Hmph, it’s really 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, and I’ve been the patriarch for decades, but I haven’t been as happy as I am today!”
Shi Yan watched a scene from a distance, returned to the inn before dawn, changed clothes, washed up, and ate a basket of buns in the lobby, the inn proprietor told him with a smile, “The lady is awake. ”
Shi Yan thought regretfully: Originally, it would take a few days at least, and a month at most, but who knew the timing was just right, and I bumped into it. After only one night of hard work, Liu’s matter was basically resolved.
Sure enough, man, it’s too fast, it just doesn’t work!
After thinking for a while, I gave the proprietress a silver note of one hundred taels: “Please help me rent a small yard in the county, it doesn’t need to be too big, it must be clean enough.
However, it is best not to let the third party know about this matter, do you understand? ”
As soon as she thought about it, the proprietress understood that Shi Yan was renting it for the injured lady above, and happily agreed, because renting such a house would cost three or five taels of silver a month at most.
People give one hundred taels, and the rest is hush money.
The proprietress handled things neatly, and in just one afternoon, she told Shi Yan to find the place: “There is a well in the courtyard, and it is very convenient to get water. Sure enough, the pans, mattresses, pillows and quilts are all ready-made, and you can live there directly. Row!”
Shi Yan gave the proprietress another 50 taels silver note, and said with a very gentle attitude, “I would like to trouble you to help find the two women’s clothes, and then borrow the inn’s carriage.
By the way, please find a veil that can cover your half body by the way. ”
When Liu Shi woke up in the morning, he was dumbfounded and did not respond. It was not a problem to stay in the inn all the time, so Shi Yan planned to rent a yard to live in first.
By the way, I wrote a letter to send it to Bai’an County, and asked the guards to send the boy Yang Hegao over. It just so happened that some things needed to be done by the guards.
When I saw Yang Hegao in the evening of the third day, Shi Yan said this: “I will handle the Miao family’s affairs myself, don’t mess around in there.
You have also seen your mother’s situation. It is not easy for you, so stay with her. Take a look at the liveliness of Miaojia Village.
Live here with peace of mind, no one will recognize you, and then think about your future plans. I don’t treat you as an ignorant child. If you need any help, you can speak bluntly. ”
When Yang Hegao saw his mother Liu Shi, he was first excited and then distressed. Holding Liu Shi’s arm, tears flowed down silently, and he rambled about what he had experienced these years.
Liu Shi was lying on the bed with empty eyes and no response at first.
Until Yang He’s voice was dry and hoarse, he held her hand and called her mother.
In one simple word, it contains five full years of grievances, helplessness, joy, longing, and complicated emotions. The old woman who was hired temporarily to take care of Liu’s family couldn’t help but secretly wipe tears under the eaves, her mouth kept smacking. Saying: “The poor child, the poor child!”
Liu Shi’s hand was lightly placed on his son’s arm, feeling the skinny arm of his son. I don’t know when, tears soaked the pillow, and the voice was inaudible: “Mother’s He Gao…”
It was only then that Yang Hegao’s lung-splitting cry came: “Mother, mother, Hegao finally found you…”
Inside the house, the mother and son cried while hugging each other.
Since he promised the children, Shi Yan didn’t plan to break his promise, saying that he would use proper means to send these wicked people to prison, and he had to find a way to do it.
Not only a promise to Yang Hegao, but also revenge for his unfortunate father-in-law and his wife whom he had never met.
