Chen Tianyu continued: "Since this is not entirely my guess, then I will continue to finish the story. ”

The proprietress is kind-hearted, she doesn't have too many urban and rural prejudices, but when she saw that this girl was very pitiful, she secretly helped the fourth aunt resell jewelry without taking a penny. But everyone also knows that these gold and silver artifacts are very expensive when they are bought, and they are often not worth a few dollars when they are sold, so until one day, the fourth aunt's jewelry has bottomed out, but life is still hopeless. ”

The fourth uncle was patient and asked the uncle Li Qisi for help, but he didn't expect to eat the closed door, the uncle can be described as hard-hearted, and resolutely believes that real gold is not afraid of fire, and he will never help until he is in a desperate situation, otherwise he will not be able to test whether the fourth aunt is sincere, this time, the fourth uncle Li Qiuyuan is really angry. ”

"The two had a big quarrel and completely fell out!"

Since the uncle is unwilling to help, the fourth uncle is also a person with a way, he first found the fifth uncle Li Qiumao and asked to participate in the illegal logging of yew, who knew that the fifth uncle was also the only one who obeyed the eldest brother's order, and resolutely refused to agree to the fourth uncle to join the gang. The fourth uncle was angry, and then found Xun Yuanchun, and secretly gave the yew to this magic stick, the fourth uncle was in the prime of life, and the raw materials for felling were good and big, Xun Yuanchun was hungry for profit, of course he would not refuse, so the deal was privately ordered, and the fifth uncle Li Qiumao was still in the dark at that time. ”

Although Xun Yuanchun made a lot of money in the middle, it also solved the urgent need of the fourth uncle, and the fourth uncle was very grateful to him. At this time, Xun Yuanchun proposed to him that the price of yew is not high now, and the market has not yet opened, and it is not the most valuable thing, but it is the bottles and jars, pots and pans in every household There is a market, if he is lucky, selling one is enough for him to eat for a year and a half, and the fourth uncle is naturally excited. ”

"It's a pity that the fourth uncle's family was almost kicked out of the house, there are no long things at home, those household utensils are necessities of life, and they are not particularly collectible, and if they are sold the same, they will be less than the same, the fourth uncle was very hesitant, and after secretly selling a few antiquities, he raised his difficulties to Xun Yuanchun. Of course, Xun Yuanchun knew the situation, and he secretly revealed a secret to the fourth uncle......"

Everyone was silent with bated breath, attracted by the bizarre story that had been around for so long, but Uncle Jiu kept frowning.

Uncle Jiu finally couldn't help but speak: "Young man, where did you know all this? ”

Before Chen Tianyu could speak, Li Yiting's mother, who had not spoken from beginning to end, suddenly said calmly: "Uncle Jiu, I told them all this. ”

Li Yiting was taken aback, and he hurriedly said, "Mom, why have I never heard you say it?"

The mother's eyes were slightly red: "Your four uncles and aunts are all poor people, how can I talk nonsense about them everywhere." If it weren't for this Zichen girl pestering me every day to talk, and I couldn't help but think of these old things when I was sad, I would have forgotten it all a long time ago. ”

Li Yiting suddenly realized, it seems that Liu Zichen and Shen Mingyue are not eating dry meals all day long.

"What secret does Li Qiuyuan know?" the ninth uncle questioned first.

Chen Tianyu said lightly: "Of course, it is the secret in the ancestral hall. ”

Li Qihuai said: "How could Xun Yuanchun know this secret? Even if we brothers are a few of them, we are not qualified to ask about this matter. ”

Chen Tianyu sighed: "There is no impermeable wall in this world, you brothers and the villagers present may not know what is in the ancestral hall, but they can more or less guess that there must be something important hidden here, not to mention a god like Xun Yuanchun? But I guess he couldn't guess that the thing in it would be a priceless fish intestine sword, so he dared to instigate the fourth uncle to come and steal it. ”

There was an uproar in the crowd, not only with exclamations and questions, but also with many echoing voices, probably thinking that the fourth uncle did have the courage back then.

At this time, Xun Yuanchun, who was thin and full of decadence, had been brought to the scene by Kuang Suo, and he took the initiative to speak: "At this time, I'll tell the truth." I was not the only one who was worried about the treasures in the ancestral hall back then, and if you ask them, Li Qisi has been deceiving us for so many years and spreading rumors everywhere, and whoever dares to offend the ancestral shrine will be punished by heaven! Saying that I am a god stick, isn't Li Qisi himself also a god stick?"

"Ridiculous, really ridiculous!" Uncle Jiu was so angry that he spat and pointed at Xun Yuanchun speechless, "Qi Si is doing this, it's better to protect the holy relics of Li Village, you dog, you just want to get rich yourself, do you still have the face to speak in front of your ancestors? See if I don't kill you brute!"

As he spoke, he seriously held a crutch, intending to chase and beat Xun Yuanchun, but was stopped by everyone.

Xun Yuanchun was not afraid at all: "Old thing, don't be pretty." Do you Li Village treat me as your own? My mother died early, although her surname is Li, does she have a little status in Li Village? Not to mention my father who is upside down, which fellow villager and villager are not cynical, but at this time, I remember that we are the same ancestor, I bah!"

He couldn't get enough of it: "What's wrong with me telling Li Qiuyuan the secret in the ancestral hall? Ah, what's wrong? What kind of fish intestine sword does he have no share? Why don't I have a share? Why should Li Qisi guard it by himself, in case he secretly sells it for money one day, does it have anything to do with us?"

"They are all descendants of the Li family, why are the ancestors so eccentric?......"

Xun Yuanchun finally found a chance to speak, and he didn't take the opportunity to clean up his grievances for many years. Li Qihuai couldn't stand it, walked over quickly and slapped him a few times, and Xun Yuanchun stopped.

There was bloodshot at the corner of his mouth, and he looked at the villagers with anger on his face, and he was obviously still unconvinced.

"Bastard thing!" Li Qihuai just scolded angrily.

Li Yiting hurriedly pulled his father away, he was afraid that Xun Yuanchun's dog would jump off the wall in a hurry, and it would be unfavorable to his father.

Chen Tianyu hurriedly raised his voice, and he tried to control the scene.

"Now everyone understands, right? This Xun Yuanchun used various channels to grasp the secrets of the ancestral hall, and he didn't dare to risk himself, so he racked his brains to encourage the down-and-out fourth uncle to steal the treasure. The poor fourth uncle was confused, just thinking that he could take an inconsequential artifact in the ancestral hall to feed the family, but he didn't know that he was going to die and fight for his life!"

"Young man, as far as I know, Qiu Yuan did not die here...... He was burned to death by fire. Uncle Nine calmed down a little and asked questions again.

"That's right, the fourth uncle is in danger alone, but he has always acted recklessly, and without careful planning, he was easily discovered by the careful uncle, and he was caught by the extremely vigilant uncle on the spot. The uncle was very angry and decided to imprison the couple completely, which led to the subsequent natural disaster. ”

It was not until this time that Uncle Li Qisi knew that the fourth uncle had given birth to a doll, and he may have regretted it, so although he imprisoned the fourth uncle and his wife, he still handed over the doll to the second aunt to raise, and at the same time quietly brought some food to prevent the fourth uncle and his wife from starving to death. ”

"But the ancestors have already made a law, those who offend the ancestral shrine will be punished by God, and the uncle will not dare to make a mistake, he plans to suppress this matter first, to ensure that no one knows that the fourth uncle has gone to the ancestral shrine to steal treasures, he must never have imagined that within a few days, there was an accidental fire, and the fourth uncle and his wife died inexplicably!"

"This time, even the uncle himself believed in the rumor of the Five Elements Heavenly Curse, from the perspective of us outsiders, in fact, he was anesthetizing himself, and he didn't dare to face the reality of killing his brother with his own hands. ”

"That's the whole story, it should be eight or nine or ten. Chen Tianyu stopped talking.

The unprecedented silence of the crowd, I don't know if I can't believe it, or if I am deeply shocked.

Li Yiting's mother suddenly sighed faintly.

"When Fuqi sent it, he should have been just over a year old, with sparse hair and a yellowish complexion, and he knew at a glance that he was hungry. Tears flowed from the mother's eyes, "What a sin! God has no mercy for the fourth brother's family and has driven them to a dead end." Fortunately, Li Yi had just been born at that time, and I still had some milk, otherwise, if Fuqi would have survived, I really have to say something. ”

Li Fuqi sat paralyzed on the ground, also in tears, he obviously didn't know the past of his parents, and only after listening to others mention it did he understand the cause and effect.

Uncle Nine suddenly paused heavily with his crutch on the ground.

"Fuqi, although you say that your uncle is sorry for you, but if you look at the second aunt and other villagers, we can be regarded as treating you well! When you were admitted to university, didn't we put it together for you to go to school? You can have today, don't say thank you, but you shouldn't destroy humanity like this, killing people and stealing swords, this is a reversal of the program, and heaven does not tolerate it!"

Li Qihuai was also full of anger: "Uncle Nine is right, even if our uncles and brothers are not great, they are always your elders, and you can really do it." Besides, your father is not completely innocent, no matter how poor he is, he can't be poor in ambition, and do those dirty things like jumping clowns, don't you and your second aunt often help them? Although we also have two children, it is not enough for your father to starve to death. Alas, it's over, and my eldest brother can really put them under house arrest for the rest of their lives?"

"What have you learned over the years outside?" Li Qihuai squatted down in pain, hiding his face with his hands, and tears were in his eyes.

Li Fuqi never spoke, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Li Yiting hurriedly walked over and comforted his father.

He glared at Li Fuqi angrily, not knowing what to say.

Chen Tianyu's eyes were slightly red, he gently walked to the father and son, and comforted softly: "Second uncle, Yiting, don't be sad first, we still have one thing to figure out." ”

The most calm was Li Yiting's mother, she looked at Chen Tianyu and said: "Child, Li Village's grievances and grievances have been going on for a long time. However, I have watched Fuqi grow up, and he has always treated me as his own mother all these years, so don't miss anything, but you have wronged Fuqi......"

"Second aunt, you relax, things are not so simple. ”

Li Yiting's family looked at Chen Tianyu in surprise, not understanding what he meant.

Chen Tianyu had already stood up and said in a loud voice: "Almost all the people in the village have arrived here today, since the words have been spoken, then I still have to verify one thing, it is related to the truth of the case, I hope everyone knows everything, and there must be no more concerns......

He took out a small statue from his arms: "This is carved by a dumb man from Yuancun, if you can see it clearly, you should be able to recognize the person on the statue, it is the fourth aunt Zheng Wanqiu." That's not the point, there's a line on the statue, and I'll read it to you......"

"The statue says that my mother's revenge will be avenged, but my whereabouts have been revealed, act quickly, and would rather break the jade than be complete. You can rest assured that this mute man has been lying in the mountains, but who is he contacting? More than 20 years ago, has anyone ever discovered the whereabouts of the mute man? You may not know that when he was in the city, the mute man used to be the fiancé of the fourth aunt who did not want to marry, and whether he and the fourth aunt were in love with each other or had they broken the connection?

When these words were said, it was better to drop a bomb again, everyone was from the past, although Chen Tianyu said it tactfully, but this was a big ugly thing, and no one dared to say anything.

After a period of cold silence, a villager finally came out: "At this time, it is useless to pretend to be deaf and dumb, let me tell you this, I have met this dumb man in the mountains several times, and it is indeed in the mountains of our Li Village...... As for whether it was a private meeting with Zheng Wanqiu at that time, I'm not sure. But for so many years, it is a fact that the dumb man will wander around our village when he is fine. ”

As soon as this remark came out, the crowd seemed to explode, and everyone was gossiping, one person and one sentence, mostly talking about the situation of meeting a dumb man in the mountains: some people met once and a half times, some people met many times, and some people even said that the fourth aunt used to live in a position that was burned to ashes, and the dumb man often sat there to drink, and if he lost his soul, he should be missing his lover.

The so-called public mouth, the fact that the dumb man has a personal affair with Zheng Wanqiu seems to be conclusive.

Suddenly-

A shrill roar rang out: "Shut up!"

The conversation was quiet, and his eyes were intertwined with the person who suddenly came out.

"You selfish villains, stop talking nonsense and harming people!" It turned out to be the proprietress of the store who spoke, "Wanqiu was drowned by your saliva, you pat your conscience and ask yourself, how many bad things have you said about Wanqiu behind your back for so many years?"

"Wanqiu, a young girl's family, has the courage not to want a home in the city, abandon the glory and wealth and mud-legged Li Laosi to become a husband and wife, it should be a happy marriage, you are good, keep pouring dirty water on others, do you have a conscience for the dog to eat? Do you know how unhappy Wanqiu is to live every day? You can't control your mouth, muttering behind your back, gossiping all day long, people Wanqiu owes you or eats you?"

"You're the real murderers!" the proprietress roared as she shook off her husband's hand.

The proprietress cried bitterly: "You are the murderers!
