When Father Xue saw Ye Xiaotian, he was really furious, he snatched back the dung fork, and said to Ye Xiaotian: "You guys hurry up, if you come to my house again, the old man will break your dog legs."
Ye Xiaotian said: "My father-in-law, my son-in-law is now a scholar, this status will not humiliate your family, will it?"
Father Xue was startled, and wondered, "Scholar?"
Mao Wenzhi wiped the duckweed on his face, and chimed in: "That's right, the master of the school has taken a fancy to my elder brother's literary talents, and has already appointed him as a scholar. My elder brother is a scholar. Isn't it good enough for your daughter?"
Xue's mother was very moved when she heard this, and hurried to Xue's father's side, gently tugged at his skirt, and whispered: "The head of the family..."
Father Xue was really moved when he heard that Ye Xiaotian had become a scholar, but in the end, he is a selfish person who prefers his own interests between his own interests and his daughter's life, so what about being a scholar? Tax exemption can't be exempted from coming to my own family, and my daughter's face is radiant when she marries a scholar? Can glory be eaten
No matter what Father Xue thinks about it, he feels that the person who can be the steward of the Tian family lives in the Guizhou border, and will help him the most. He thinks that he was also the steward in the master's house back then, and maybe he can climb the field through the introduction of his son-in-law family, to become the chief steward of the Tian family, can Ye Xiaotian give him these opportunities
Therefore, Father Xue put his heart on hold, and said righteously: "My daughter has long been betrothed to Xie's family. She was born as a member of Xie's family, and died as a ghost of Xie's family! Just stop thinking about it, don't say you are a scholar. , even if you are a Juren, Jinshi, even if you are a high-ranking official, you have nothing to do with my Xue family, get out! Get out!"
Ye Xiaotian looked deeply at Shui Wu, and said: "The life of my parents is greater than my own life? I don't think it is filial piety to do this. There has never been such a rule in my family, and my father has never asked me to do so." , but who dares to say that I am not filial? Shui Wu, are you willing to come with me?"
With tears in her eyes, Shui Wu looked at Ye Xiaotian, her lips trembling, how could she say "no". She didn't realize it before, after being separated from Ye Xiaotian for two days at home, she felt that she couldn't leave him more and more, no matter how hard it was with him, she was so happy, but now her heart is full of sadness.
Seeing his daughter's hesitation, Father Xue was afraid that she would say what she said to Ye Xiaotian impulsively, and this bastard would be even more persistent. If he came to pester him every day, the eldest son of the Xie family would have been reluctant to do so, so he would use this as an excuse What should I do if I divorce
Father Xue rushed up in a rage and shouted, "Are you going to get out? Get out immediately!"
Ye Xiaotian glanced at Father Xue, he hated this person from the bottom of his heart, but what could he do? No matter what method he has, he can't use it on this person, just because he is Shui Wu's father. For others, he can do whatever he can, but not for this person. Ye Xiaotian is not a person who follows the rules, but he is not a beast.
"The Xue family can't get through this way, so I can only find a way from the Xie family. For the Xie family, I don't have to have so many scruples..."
Thinking about it, Ye Xiaotian took two steps back slowly, looked at Shuiwu, and said loudly: "Wait for me, I will be back!"
Hearing these words, Shui Wu burst into tears.

Seeing Ye Xiaotian and Mao Wenzhi walking farther and farther away, Father Xue also scolded his wife and daughter and went back to the house, Yang Sanshou, Xing Erzhu, and Yue Ming flashed out from behind the willow tree.
Yang San's thin chin was dripping with rain, he stared coldly at Xue's house, and said to Yue Ming: "We can't delay any longer, just rush in, kill Shui Wu when he is not prepared, then go back to the city, and then eat while they come out." If you kill Le Yao during dinner, we'll go back to Jingzhou to claim the credit!"
As soon as Yue Ming lifted the skirt of his clothes, he happily took out a sharp knife with ears, and was about to run forward. This knife was stolen yesterday from a butcher's chopping board by taking advantage of his unawares. Yang Sanshou grabbed him and scolded: "Idiot! You think you are an officer and soldier killing a thief. If you are so open-minded, cover your face first!"
Yue Ming shyly cut off a piece of lining from the skirt, and Yang Sanshou said to Xing Erzhu again: "You also go and help, I'll watch out for you here!"
Xing Erzhu also imitated the example and cut a piece of lining to cover his face to pretend to be a masked robber, and the two quietly hid themselves from Xue's house. The backyard wall of Xue's house had already collapsed, and the two of them sneaked into Xue's house without even turning over the wall.
"Ha! I knew you kid was not dead, and you ran back again!" Father Xue jumped out of the gable wall holding a dung fork, and shouted: "Come on, catch the thief! Come on! Catch the thief!" Shouting, he jumped up excitedly, picked up the dung fork and swept it towards Yue Ming's waist.
"You bastard, come to my house again and again and ruin the reputation of my Xue family. I will never let you go! Come quickly, and catch the thief!" Father Xue waved the dung fork vigorously, and the more he beat, the more excited he became.
Yue Ming was caught off guard by him at first, but he is a man of martial arts after all. Once he stabilized his figure, Father Xue would no longer be an opponent. He grabbed his collar and stabbed father Xue's heart fiercely.
"puff!"
When the sharp knife entered his body, Father Xue's excited and ferocious expression froze on his face, and gradually turned into fear: "You... you actually killed me?"
Father Xue swung the dung fork just now, and he just wanted to injure the two masked men, he didn't dare to stab them with the fork point, but he didn't expect that the masked man would dare to kill him brazenly.
"I'm dying, I'm dying..."
Father Xue looked at the sharp knife that was up to the handle in his heart, and his eyes of fear and despair became more and more intense. Yue Ming pushed him away viciously, and was about to rush into the back door of Xue's house with the knife, when he heard a "boom, bang, bang" from the copper basin. There was a loud noise, and someone shouted: "Catch the thief! Come and catch the thief!"
Immediately there was a loud noise, Father Xue's yelling had already recruited all the neighbors from the left, even the family who was in conflict with his family heard that there was a thief, and the small businessman The old man ran out with his three burly sons carrying kitchen knives and rolling pins.
Seeing that the opportunity had been lost, Yue Ming stomped his feet resentfully, and said to Xing Erzhu, "Withdraw!"
"Catch the thief! There are really thieves!"
The villager who ran over first saw the two masked men, his face paled in fright, he immediately helped to clamor, and at the same time he raised his weapon and rushed towards them. Seeing this situation, Li could not help cursing inwardly: "You bastard, you still say you are a master! What a master!"
Seeing that the people in the village were about to be alarmed, Yang Sanshou knew that there would be a massive search by the whole village. His legs and feet were not as sharp as Yue Ming and Xing Erzhu's, so he simply flew out of the village first.

When Ye Xiaotian and Mao Wenzhi returned to the inn, Ye Xiaotian’s coir raincoat was still there, only the trouser legs were wet, and Mao Wenzhi’s coir coir raincoat was floating in the pond behind Xue’s house, making him look like a drowned rat. The storekeeper looked at it and greeted him with concern After saying a few words, he raised his voice and called for someone to cook two bowls of ginger syrup for them.
Ye Xiaotian thanked the shopkeeper and asked, "Is Yaoyao okay?"
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Okay! Very good, that girl is doing well. She has been playing in her room and never came out. Don't worry, she will be with you."
Ye Xiaotian thanked the shopkeeper, then walked to the back guest room with Mao Wenzhi, Mao Wenzhi went back to the residence to change clothes, Ye Xiaotian walked to his and Yaoyao's residence, stretched out his hand, the door was latched, Ye Xiaotian knocked on the door, said : "Yaoyao, I'm back."
There was no movement in the room at all, Ye Xiaotian thought that Yaoyao was playing with him, shook his head and smiled, and raised his voice again: "Yaoyao, open the door quickly. I will take you to eat delicious food."
It is reasonable to say that when Ye Xiaotian mentions delicious food, Yaoyao will immediately respond, but today, for some reason, Yaoyao still does not make a sound, only a baby-like cry from Fuwa comes from inside.
An ominous premonition floated in Ye Xiaotian's heart. If Yaoyao was naughty and wanted to play with him, it was possible, but there was a waiter in the room, how could the waiter make such jokes with customers
Ye Xiaotian was nervous, knocked on the door again, and called: "Little Er, open the door!"
There was still no movement in the room, but there was a sound of scratching the door, presumably it was Fuwa's claws, Ye Xiaotian was shocked, he immediately took two steps back, bumped his body forward, with a "boom", the door even the frame was covered by him. It crashed and the whole thing slammed into the room.
"Yaoyao? Yaoyao!"
Ye Xiaotian leaned on the door panel and looked up, his pupils shrank suddenly, and saw that Xiaoer was lying motionless on the table, and there was a puddle of blood dripping down the corner of the table slowly, other than that, the room was empty, there was no one at all. Distant traces.
At this time, Mao Wenzhi heard a loud noise, and immediately ran over from the next room. He was used to being naked all the time in prison, and he took off his clothes in his own room without changing anything. The sound, immediately ran out naked.
A female guest at the opposite door opened the door when she heard the commotion, and suddenly saw a man running past her with bare buttocks, she couldn't help screaming, and hurriedly covered her eyes, but her five fingers moved quietly, and a gap appeared, Looking at the back of the naked man: "The ass is quite strong..."
Mao Wenzhi ran into Ye Xiaotian's room in strips, looked around, and said in shock: "What happened? Ah! Why did Xiaoer die? Where is Yaoyao?"
At this moment, the door suddenly flipped up, throwing Ye Xiaotian, who was lying there in a daze, to the side. Fu Wa'er got up from under the door, slumped her big butt on the ground, and rubbed her head with her front paws. Mao Wenzhi Immediately asked Fuwa: "Tell me, where did you go? Tell me! If you don't tell me... why are you scratching me? You... Damn, I have no clothes on!"
As soon as Mao Wenzhi looked up, he saw that there were already many guests poking their heads outside. He rushed to the bed, pulled a piece of bed sheet, wrapped it around his body quickly, and after a while, it became a piece of clothing. Ronin.
Ye Xiaotian was kicked by Fu Wa'er, and he suddenly woke up. He rushed to the table, dipped his hand in a pool of blood, looked at it, and said in a deep voice, "He died not long ago, let's chase after him!"
"good!"
Mao Wenzhi didn't bother to change clothes, so he followed with his bare legs covered in a sheet.
