Young Gold's footsteps were also fast, but he arrived at the patriarch's house in half a quarter of an hour.
The Yue clan is not a famous family, but it has also proliferated at the foot of Cuifeng Mountain for a hundred or two hundred years, and the patriarch's family still has some roots. The patriarch's house is a beautiful and stylish brick and tile house, located in the center of Cuifeng Village. You Jin knocked on the door of the patriarch's house, but someone came to answer the door: "Are you the granddaughter of Uncle Dafu's family? What's the matter with coming here so late?"
"Uncle Changsheng, I have something important to ask the patriarch's grandfather, please let me in!" Young Jin looked sad and begged Yue Changsheng, the grandson of the patriarch who came to the camp gate.
As soon as he heard that something was wrong, Yue Changsheng hurried out of the door: "Come in and talk about anything!"
When he led the person to the hall, Yue Shanchuan, the patriarch of the Yue clan, was sipping tea. Although he didn't have any good tea leaves, Yue Shanchuan had always been good at it.
You Jin walked to Yue Shanchuan and knelt down without saying a word: "I beg the patriarch grandpa to save me and a few younger sisters!"
Yue Shanchuan is getting older now, and he hasn't seen Young Jin for some years, so he didn't recognize who she was at once. Yue Changsheng, who was beside him, hurriedly came to him and said, "It's the granddaughter of the second room of Uncle Dafu's family, named You Jin."
It was only then that Yue Shanchuan remembered. He twisted his gray beard and looked at her with cloudy eyes: "You doll came here at night, and you kneel when you come, what are you doing?"
"Grandpa Patriarch, Young Jin Leuye came to disturb you, it is really helpless, the reason is that my grandfather and my grandmother want to kill my two younger brothers and sisters who have just been born for more than ten days! Young Jin is very quiet, I can only ask the patriarch to take pity on a few of us and take care of us!" After saying that, he kowtowed several times in a row.
"You girl, why are you so scary? Tell me what's the matter." When the patriarch heard that the Yue Dafu couple were going to kill the two infants, he could not help frowning. There was a riot at the Yue family back then. At that time, I was lucky enough to say that I was rich. Why did I come back after a few years
Youjin kept a long story short, and told Yue Shanchuan what he heard was three percent false and seven percent true: "I also ask the patriarch to protect us!"
After listening to her words, Yue Shanchuan sighed deeply: "If that's the case, I'll go to Yue's house to have a look!" After all, they are descendants of the Yue clan. If they were a fortune-teller monk, they would drown two innocent children. , and it's a bit too much.
Hearing that Yue Shanchuan wanted to go out, Yue Changsheng hurriedly came over with an angry lantern, then hugged the old man tightly and walked slowly towards the direction of the Yue family.
***
Outside the gate of Yue's house, Yingyingzhuozhu stood a lot of lively neighbors, although it was already night, but suddenly the sound of adults and children crying and making noise came out of the Yuejia, and the neighbors who had not slept were all. He ran over and stood outside the earthen wall to watch the excitement.
You Jin walked slowly behind Yue Shanchuan back to the door of Yue's house and heard the cries of several girls inside, and knew that something had happened. I don't know which person turned back first, but seeing that the patriarch was actually alerted, he hurriedly made a way, and it was exciting to watch!
And now the door of the Yue family is closed, Young Yin and Su Shi are each holding their two children tightly, and the old Chen Shi, whose condition has improved a lot, also insists on coming out to grab people. With the bamboo whip, he hit the two of them: "One or two mourning stars, how dare you cry here! What if I beat you all to death today!"
Youzhu and Youbao also closely guarded the three little ones, and the whole family cried and cried and made trouble. However, Yue Dafu and Yue Changfu did not even show their faces from beginning to end.
Old Chen was out of breath, standing in the middle of the yard and shaking a few times, Xiao Chen hurriedly supported him: "Mother, you are still ill, don't get angry!"
"These mourning stars are here to beat me, how can I be better!" The old Chen was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he thought that if the family hadn't been beaten for so many years, he might have become a happy old lady long ago. , then stuffed the bamboo whip in his hand into Xiao Chen's hand: "Go and beat me, I have to kill those two little mourners today!"
"Who are you going to kill?" An old and majestic voice sounded outside the door. It turned out that it was the patriarch Yue Shanchuan who pushed open the courtyard door that Young Jin had left a slit when he went out, and looked at a cockfighting cock with a displeased expression on his face. Ordinary old Chen: "Chen, it seems that you have a good temper in the past two years!"
"Clan, patriarch?!" The sky was dark, and the old Chen family had not yet realized who dared to come in and interfere with their own affairs, but Yue Changlu, who was beside him, recognized Yue Shanchuan.
As soon as she heard that the patriarch was here, the once arrogant old Chen shied away a lot. She was used to being crazy all her life, beating her little parents to dote on her, and after marrying into the Yue family, Yue Dafu never beat her or scolded her. To say that the only person she is afraid of in this life is Yue Shanchuan, the patriarch of the Yue clan.
"It seems that although my old man doesn't go out very often, there are still people who remember me!" Yue Shanchuan coldly looked at the scene of the chickens and dogs jumping in the Yue family and asked, "What is this for? I don't know yet. I thought your family was going to be killed!"
The old Chen Shi, who just threatened to kill the two little mourners, can't say a word now, and the little Chen Shi is also afraid to say a word. On the other hand, Yue Dafu, who had been invisible for a long time, heard the movement outside and hurriedly came out: "Uncle Shanchuan, why did you alert your old man to come?"
Yue Shanchuan is of high rank in the village, and Yue Dafu, who is already a grandfather, has to greet him properly when he sees him.
"Last time I came back to your house, I said that a good wife and a husband have few misfortunes, so you should discipline your family members. Now that a few years have passed, it seems that you haven't disciplined them well!" What kind of face does Shi leave: "The second child has not had a son for many years, and now he has a son with great difficulty. You can't have a child and raise him, how can you kill him?"
Yue Dafu was trained to have a dull face, and the old Chen family hated the patriarch who didn't leave half of his affection for himself, but he didn't dare to say anything. On the young gold who came back, this death star, she will kill her sooner or later!
Now that the fish is dead and the net is broken, how can Young Jin be concerned about this? As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Su Shi and a few younger sisters were beaten with red marks left by the bamboo whip on their faces. Young Jin helped them up distressedly, and took Xiao Shi who was in Young Yin's arms, her eyes were slightly red. He praised several sisters who were crying so hard: "Everyone is a good person, protecting Xiao Shi and Kang'er!"
Seeing that the children finally waited until the third sister came back, they were all relieved, standing beside her with peace of mind, looking at Old Chen and the others as if they were facing the enemy.
Yue Shanchuan glanced at the villagers outside the earthen wall who were standing on their feet to watch the fun, and sighed, but still saved face for Yue Dafu and others: "Don't be stubborn, come in and talk about something."
Yue Dafu also breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that the patriarch would not save face for himself in front of the villagers. Seeing him say this, he hurriedly let him in. Sister Young Jin also followed behind Su and took firm steps into the main room. . Standing beside Su Shi, You Jin was a little relieved, Su Shi finally straightened up and entered the door of the main room of the Yue family.
Yue Shanchuan looked at the naked hatred in the eyes of several children in the second room in the dim candlelight, and couldn't help shaking his head, the house was restless! He turned to look at Yue Dafu and said, "Dafu, your family affairs are not something I should interfere with, but if you do too much, I can't just sit back and watch. I said back then that my Yue family is not a famous family The famous family has also multiplied in Liutun Town for nearly two hundred years. Although there are no meritorious people, they are all good families, and the tiger's poison still does not eat its children!"
Yue Dafu's old face has been stomped on the ground by the patriarch, his face flushed, and he said in a stern voice: "Uncle Shanchuan, it's not that I think so, it's just that these children are a hindrance to my Yue family, and I can't do anything about it. With two children who were only born for more than ten days, the future of my Yue family of dozens of people is included, right?"
Yue Shanchuan shook his head helplessly: "Da Fu, you said that a few children are bad for your Yue family's luck. After so many years, your family's life can be regarded as the top row in our village. not enough?"
Looking at Yue Dafu's stubborn expression, Yue Shanchuan knew in his heart: "Dafu, you are really serious!" Then he turned to look at Yue Changlu and the others who were silent, In my heart, I feel that this family is too cold and thin, this is a determined effort to exchange their own blood for an invisible future!
"But it's worth making such a fuss for a few money-losing goods!" Although the old Chen didn't dare to contradict the patriarch, he still dared to whisper: "I also have to take care of my own family!" Although the old Chen has always been Thoughts were broken, but she was very careful not to let others hear what she said.
Sitting on the edge of the kang, Yue Shanchuan glanced at a few children and shook his head. Dafu is getting more and more confused as he gets older! He turned to look at Yue Dafu again: "So no matter what, you are determined to drown two children?"
"Grandpa, the patriarch, my grandmother also said that she would sell me and the third sister!" Young Zhu, who was beside him, received Young Jin's signal, and shook out the words that Old Chen had just beaten and scolded: "Said My third sister and I are both dead stars, so we have to sell us far away!"
"Dafu you!" Yue Shanchuan couldn't believe it: "Even in a disaster year, as long as they can feed their children, which household will sell the children?" The heartbroken Yue Shanchuan coughed violently as soon as he finished speaking.
Yue Changsheng hurriedly patted him on the back, calming down for him: "Master, don't get angry, let's talk slowly if you have something to say."
After a while, Yue Shanchuan calmed down: "If I don't come today, will the two little ones die and the two big ones will be sold? Dafu, you are confused!"
Everyone in the Yue family was so trained that they couldn't say a word. Yue Changlu turned his head and slapped Xiaozhu viciously on the face: "Let you talk a lot! Your lord has the right to talk as a money loser!"
But before the slap landed on Xiaozhu's face, she was blocked by the Su Clan on the side: "Yue Changlu, I've had enough of you and your Yue family! I won't let you touch my child's hair again. Silk!" It was the first time in his life that the Su family was so tough as an old hen with high fighting power tightly protecting the young beads.
