Chapter 64: trouble (2)

Views:

He Hao got a headache from the anger at the behavior of the old and young Qi in front of him, and shouted angrily: "Don't make trouble!" Even Chen Laosan, who was a prankster, was frightened by the sudden attack of Li Zheng, who was usually a talkative person. After a while, he didn't make a sound when he grew up, and stared blankly at He Hao, who was not angry and mighty.

The villagers who were watching the excitement naturally didn't say anything. After all, it's not a good thing to get involved with Chen Laosan. If you can't get involved with yourself, it's best not to get involved.

"People who are in their tens of years are still rolling around here, don't be ashamed!" He Hao scolded Chen Laosan angrily, and then turned his head to look at the two young people beside him: "Hurry up and take people away. Get up, what does this look like!"

Chen Laosan, who was helped up, was only frightened at first. He is a person who can make his father mad and sell his sister to someone else as his daughter-in-law. Pretending to wipe the nonexistent tears from the corners of his eyes, he said, "Brother He Hao, as a villager, you can't let outsiders bully our Wuliqiao people! Look at what I was beaten by them. What does it look like? If you don't take out 10 taels of silver to pay me for medical expenses, this will not be over!"

"Brother He Hao! You have to give justice to our master! Our family's six or seven mouths are all supported by our master. If he has three strengths and two weaknesses, how can our orphans and widows live!" He stretched out his hand and pinched his daughter who had already cried, crying and betraying her misery.

He Hao was annoyed by the shrill cries of Chen Lao San's family and their children, and his brows became deeper and deeper. This family is really a family. All right! Stop making trouble!"

This Chen Lao Sanjia is a puddle of muddy water. If it weren't for him, Lizheng would not want to touch this matter at all. First, he turned to look at the few who were standing close together, all of them looked at him with hatred. Five foreigners: "In this matter, the father said that the father is right and the mother is right. You said that he stole the money, but there is no evidence. Besides, you beat people first, let's do it!"

When the five river workers heard it, their hearts were half chilled, but they were in a foreign land, and they were alone and weak.

Seeing the bloodshot eyes of several river workers, He Hao sighed deeply, then turned to look at Chen Laosan: "As for Chen Laosan, you are the master family, they lived with you and lost money, and you are also blaming Run away, in this way, you can pay back the accommodation money that the five of them paid, and it's over."

"Why! Let them live in our house for nothing these days!" Chen Lao San's family is also a shrew. When he heard that he wanted to pay back the money he had, he immediately became angry, stood up and pointed at He Hao and scolded : "As a lizheng, you are still helping outlanders, so you're not afraid that I will report to the official and take off your black gauze hat here to see how you can show off your strength!"

"Although I, He Hao, didn't do great things, I can ask myself what I've done in my life. I'll be honest with myself. If anyone thinks that I'm doing things unfairly, they can go to the yamen and sue me!" Chen Laosan's family was indifferently looking at him. He turned around and said, "The only thing I'm ashamed of in this matter is that I can't retrieve the stolen silver for the five of them. It's best to report it to the officials, maybe I can really get the stolen silver back. Come on, then all those goddamn thieves will be caught and sentenced to three or five years in prison!"

He Hao's words are serious, and those thieves are naturally a little guilty. Chen Laosan glared at his mother-in-law angrily, is this going to kill him? Although one person's refund of dozens of texts would add up to nearly two coins, but thinking about the bulging money bag he hid, Chen Laosan gritted his teeth and recognized it: "Since Brother He Hao, you said so, I am Chen Lao. Three is also a reasonable and loyal person, and it is easy to get together and break up, so it is time to make friends with a few."

Then, I paid half a month's accommodation money for each of the five people from my arms, and then smiled and wanted to hook up with a few sad and angry river workers: "If you want to come back someday, brothers. I live here, welcome anytime!"

One of the young Housheng, who was put on his shoulder, threw his arm away heavily, and then angrily followed the leader He Gong. The five of them left Chen Laosan's house angrily carrying the few old clothes they had. Go west of the river.

The farce ended like this, and the villagers dispersed when they saw that there was no liveliness to watch. He Hao looked at the hippie smiling third Chen, sighed deeply, shook his head and left.

After the irrelevant people were all gone, the mother-in-law of Chen Laosan's family was angry and blamed: "Why did you promise to pay the money, you are still injured! The money for the accommodation is what we deserved. Lost in vain!"

Chen Laosan touched his broken chin and said "oh" before saying angrily, "Do you think I am willing to pay? Then He Hao's face is blackened into coal, if he really doesn't lose something. Yinzi, what if those foreigners really reported to the officials?" After speaking, he spat viciously, and felt another layer of resentment towards He Hao, who favored the foreigners.

Speaking of He Hao, Chen Laosan's family also scolded angrily: "I really think of myself as an official! It will bully us, and when my son is successful in the future, we must make them look good. !"

The couple both rolled on the ground for several times, and they were all covered in gray. Chen Laosan kicked the eldest daughter who was standing beside her timidly: "What are you looking at! Hurry up and fetch me water to wash it? wash!"

Chen Xiaohong, who was kicked, responded dumbly, and went to the kitchen to make hot water for her parents, but she heard Chen Laosan scolding behind him: "I have been raised for 12 or 3 years and have nothing to gain, I have nothing to eat. After all these years of rice and noodles, when I find someone who can afford the money, I will sell you immediately!"

Chen Xiaohong, whose eyebrows twitched, shook her hands, and accidentally spilled some hot water, which happened to be at the feet of Chen Dacheng, the eldest son of Chen Laosan's family. Chen Dacheng also kicked in the past. Chen Xiaohong, who was kicked down even with the basin, didn't dare to cry while listening to the unpleasant words from her parents and eldest brother. She hurriedly picked up the wooden basin and went back to the kitchen to fetch hot water.

Besides, the five river workers, after they came out of Wuliqiao Village, looked at the darkness, and from time to time they heard a few sounds of dogs barking or wolf howling, and the night wind was blowing and it was a little cold.

A few younger ones lost their minds for a while, and looked at each other, not knowing where to go. The man who took the lead also hesitated for a while before he said solemnly: "Let's go, let's go to the west of the river!"

Seeing the river workers' dormitory on the west side of the river, which was still light in the distance, several people had to try their luck there. In fact, they also wanted to live in the river workers' dormitory of the Su family, but the Su family had already It was full of people, and the five people were really helpless, so they went to the east of the river to live in Chen Laosan's house. How could they have thought that so many moths would happen all of a sudden

Uncle Wang, who was about to rest, heard a knock on the door outside, motioned Han Li and Han Erhua to go to bed first, and went to the front yard with his lantern on and his clothes on: "Who is this night?"

"Uncle, we are the river workers who lived across the river. Would you like to come to your place to stay overnight, could it be convenient?" The leading river worker bowed his hands and asked a little embarrassedly.

When Uncle Wang heard that he was going to stay, he waved his hand and said, "We are all full, and there is no place to live anymore!"

As soon as they heard that there was no place to live, several people were a little disappointed, and they were ready to leave. A young boy didn't give up, so he begged one more sentence: "Master, we were tricked by Chen Laosan's family across the river. He stole all our money, and we really can't help it. This night The gate of the city is also closed, we really have nowhere to go, sir, can you be a good old man!"

As soon as he heard that it was a river worker who lived in Chen Laosan's house, Uncle Wang frowned unconsciously: "Why did you live in his house?" However, he was still moved with compassion and led the five people to the side of the yard. I walked to a row of single rooms and opened one of the vacant rooms with the key: "Why don't you live here first, the houses here are paid monthly, I don't think it's easy for you, just Give me money for one night."

Seeing that he was so accommodating, several people were naturally grateful, and hurriedly put together one night's rent and gave it to Uncle Wang. Thankfully, he sent Uncle Wang away, and then he looked at the single-room dormitory of the Su family. There was a kang that could barely sleep five people, and there were also tables, chairs, and benches. Although they were small, they could last a night.

In the early morning of the second day, Uncle Wang explained the matter to You Jin, who came to check the situation of the river workers' dormitory at a fixed time every day: "Those river workers stayed in the single room next to them for one night. Blame the old man for making up my own mind!"

After listening to Uncle Wang's words, You Jin smiled and said, "Uncle, you did the right thing. Our family took them in for one night. It's just a little effort, but what happened to the east of the river?" Su My family lives in the west of the river. The advantage of being far away from the village is that it is clean, but the disadvantage is that I only know what happened in the village later.

Speaking of this, Uncle Wang spat in disgust: "Then Mr. Chen is not a thing! The hard-earned money of several river workers has been stolen, if Li Zheng came forward and asked those river workers to return their accommodation for half a month. Silver, those people are really going to sleep on the streets!"

After listening to Uncle Wang's briefing about what he had inquired about, You Jin frowned and asked, "Aren't those river workers going to report to the officials? If you lose so much money, the government can't ignore it, right?"

Uncle Wang sighed and said, "Young Jin girl, it's been less than half a year since your family moved here. I don't know how powerful Chen Laosan is. He is famous in our area. , but then Chen Laosan didn't know where to hide the things after stealing, and the government couldn't find any evidence, and in the end, they could only let it go, and the bitter master could only admit that he was unlucky!"

"Is that really a scourge?" You Jin asked like this, and he also felt a sense of crisis. His family members were all helpless daughters. Now, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe!

Uncle Wang shook his head helplessly, who can say for sure
