Chapter 2 Night Exploration of the Li Family
When he came to the village, he knelt on the ground in front of every house and said, "Fu Yulong's father passed away, and three days later, my father went to the ground and begged his uncle and uncle for a favor." ”
After kowtowing hundreds of heads, I invited a few middle-aged and elderly people in their forties and fifties, and someone asked: "Yu Long, have you asked Mr. to see the time of burial?" ”
It is a local custom to ask the gentleman to choose a good day and an auspicious day to let the deceased enter the earth.
He said: "Uncle, no need, the sky is unscrupulous, the year is unboggy, the month is unmowed, ignorant and auspicious, I think every day is an auspicious day, so I will put my father into the ground in the morning after three days." ”
“......”
I say this because my family has no money at all, and I can't talk about my suffering.
The well-wisher was speechless, but he felt that this child, who was often subjected to domestic violence, was reasonable, and in the end he didn't say anything more, only said that he would definitely help.
I deliberately went to kowtow in front of Li Kui's house, and when I saw him from afar, the family seemed to be as quiet as if there was no life, kowtowed and finished speaking, and deliberately explored the environment around Li Kui's house clearly, and turned around and left with a chill in his eyes.
After inviting someone home, in the dead of night, the younger siblings were already sleepy, kneeling beside their father's corpse and crumbling, only the mother shed tears from time to time.
He gently came to his mother's side and whispered, "Mother, when you're tired, go sleep for a while, I have me at home!"
Mother was unwilling: "Long'er, you are running around all day, and there are many things to do tomorrow, so you should go and rest." ”
"Mother, the child's hard work is nothing compared to your dedication to me, I just hate the child's incompetence, and now I am still spending your hard-earned money. ”
"Silly boy, you are still studying, and when you get fame and achievement, it will be worth it for your mother to work hard and tired. ”
With tears in his eyes, he smiled at his mother, and said secretly in his heart: "Is college a good place for me, mother, I can't watch you worry about me anymore, at this moment, your expectations for the child have become a bubble, I'm sorry, after my father enters the ground, for you, for the future of my younger brothers and sisters, I have enough reasons to shoulder the burden of this family." ”
Fu Yulong didn't dare to say this at this time, and said to his mother: "Mother, you didn't sleep last night, go and rest first, and get up in the middle of the night to change me." ”
"Alright then, Long'er, remember to call me in the middle of the night. ”
"Mother, don't worry. ”
In the township, relatives stay by the deceased and call the funeral.
He sent his mother to sleep, and his younger siblings to sleep, and just when he thought his younger siblings were asleep, he quietly left the house alone and rushed to Li Kui's house, which was ten miles away.
After he left, a pair of tearful eyes were revealed behind the door, this little girl was Fu Ling'er, her little hands were red and swollen from the cold, covering her mouth stiffly, afraid that the little crying sound would alarm her mother and younger brother who were asleep.
Fu Ling'er couldn't cry at this time, she wanted to stop her brother, but she knew that her brother was desperate, ten horses couldn't pull back, she didn't have the ability to persuade her brother, and she couldn't help her brother, so she could only cry in worry and anxiety, the only thing she could do was to pray secretly for the emaciated figure that disappeared into the night in front of her: "I hope my brother will come back soon......"
Fu Ling'er felt that her brother was in an abnormal mood today, and she knew that her brother would definitely not give up on this matter. Pretending to go to sleep is because she knows that even if she doesn't go to sleep, her brother will find an excuse to slip away, and if she provokes her brother to lose his mind and run wild, he will definitely make an irreparable situation, pretending to go back to sleep, so that his brother can do things with peace of mind.
"Second sister!"
"Ahh
This low voice sounded in Fu Ling'er's ears, just like her father's ghost suddenly talking to her, so frightened that Fu Ling'er, who was quiet in her thoughts, almost fell to the ground, not daring to alarm her sleeping mother, so she instinctively covered her mouth and didn't make a sound.
She didn't know why her brother got up, and said secretly in her heart: "Could it be that Yuguang knows that his brother is out?"
When she was in a daze, Fu Yuguang asked, "Second sister, what about my brother?"
"Brother is out. ”
"Oh"
Fu Yuguang simply thought that his brother was going out to the toilet or something, and didn't think much about other aspects.
"Yuguang, what are you doing when you get up?"
"My stomach hurts, I want to go to the toilet, are you secretly crying here?"
"No, no, no, I didn't cry, I just thought that my brother was alone, come to accompany my brother, if you want to go to the thatched house, go quickly, come back to sleep, and then come to sleep with me and my brother." ”
"Good!"
Fu Ling'er found that her younger brother didn't know her brother's purpose, so she was a little relieved, and said secretly in her heart: "Fortunately, I found out my brother's whereabouts, otherwise Yuguang didn't know, and when he saw that his brother was gone, he looked for him indiscriminately, alarmed his mother, and his brother would definitely punish Yuguang when he came back." ”
After a while, Fu Yuguang returned.
"Second sister, then I'll come back to you and my brother later. ”
"Okay, go to sleep, I'll call you later. ”
The custom in the countryside is that when someone dies in the family, the door cannot be closed, and the gate must be kept open until the deceased is buried in the earth.
Fu Ling'er took her younger brother to sleep, and then quietly poked her head out of the door, and kept watching when her brother would come back.
Fu Yulong left the house, ran for half an hour, came to the wall of Li Kui's house, listened carefully to the movement inside, listened for a while, took a few steps back, and ran over the wall. After observing the wall for a while, he approached Li Kui's mansion along the wall, and heard the sound of discussion coming from Li Kui's house.
"Brother, do you think that Fu Qiong's daughter is missing, could it be his family's ghost?"
"I don't know about this, yesterday we threatened Fu Qiong's nest, he said that he didn't know where Fu Qingya went, I think Fu Qiong's soft eggs are mostly true. ”
In the conversation between Li Kui and his second brother, they didn't know about the disappearance of his sister Fu Qingya, and when he heard this, he knew that there was another reason for his sister's disappearance, and he heard that Li Kui had threatened his father Fu Qiong, thinking that his father was the murderer of Li Kui.
Hearing this, he gently jumped off the wall with a chill and rushed home, constantly thinking in his heart: "What should I do about this matter, if I don't get it right, I will have to affect my younger siblings and mother, I have to think of a perfect solution." ”
After he left, Li Kui said another thing to his younger brother: "Then why did Fu Qingya disappear?"
"I don't know about this, maybe Fu Qingya doesn't want to marry Li Zhong's child!"
"Big brother, what do you say to do?"
"Find a few people tomorrow to quietly find out the truth and then talk about it, if it doesn't work, go and threaten his family, and when the time comes, Fu Qingya will definitely show up." ”
"Big brother, this is a good idea. ”
"Second brother, it's not early, I'm going to rest, and you don't want to be here with me. ”
"Okay, we'll see you tomorrow. ”
"See you tomorrow. ”
After his younger brother left, Li Kui muttered to himself: "Who killed Fu Qiong's wreck, and where did Fu Qingya go?"
In the darkness of the night, he trotted all the way, and after thirty or forty minutes, he returned home again. Standing in the darkness of the night, he saw in the distance a head probing by the door by the faint light of the candle next to his father's corpse.
I chuckled in my heart, was frightened, and said secretly: "Could it be that this little girl Fu Ling'er found out about my whereabouts?"
The elder brother and the night merged into one, but unfortunately Fu Ling'er didn't see it with all her might. At this moment, the little girl didn't know that her whereabouts had been exposed, and she thought that she was hiding very hidden, waiting to see when her brother would come back.
"Ling'er, what are you looking at?"
This sudden voice sounded beside her, and Fu Ling'er was startled again, and when she saw the person coming clearly, she was excited and defeated the fright.
"Brother, you're back so soon. ”
"Shh
Seeing her brother make a silent gesture, she nodded.
"Little girl, didn't you go to sleep and kept watching me quietly?"
The little girl knew that she had slipped her mouth, so she didn't hide it, and showed an embarrassed smile to her brother.
"Brother, I can't hide anything from you. ”
"It's not that you can't hide it from your brother, it's that you think of your brother too simply. ”
The big eyes of the water spirit blinked at his brother, and he secretly said in his heart: "I don't think of my brother as simple, on the contrary, okay?"
Looking at her sister's appearance, the haze in her heart was also melted, and she looked at her little hand that was red and swollen from the cold, and gently pulled it up and put it in the palm of her hand.
The little girl feels that as long as she has her brother by her side, she is the happiest sister in the world.
The brother and sister were silent for a long time, and remained silent until the rooster crowed, and the next day it started again.
It's just that in a place where no one knows, the movements of Fu Yulong's family are all clearly seen by the eyes in the dark.
The next morning, Li Kui sent four people to investigate the mystery of Fu Qingya's disappearance.
The three siblings of the family had a simple breakfast with their mother, and Fu Yulong suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if he was being looked at naked.
He has been studying medicine and martial arts with his grandfather since he was a child, plus his own specialness, and he has judged the results through experience, which is being targeted.
"Why are people staring at themselves, no, this is not staring at me, but probing the situation at home, what is there at home that others are worried about?"
He kept analyzing and making judgments, remembering that he heard Li Kui's family discussing the reason for his sister's disappearance last night, and he connected it with the proposal, and his heart instantly cleared.
"Only the Li family is worried about their sister, and the mystery of her sister's disappearance is not known to the Li family, so the Li family sent someone to keep an eye on the family, and it all makes sense. ”
Thinking of this, a chill instantly appeared in his eyes, and he snorted coldly in his heart: "Hmph! I am worried that there is nowhere to vent my grievances, you have no way to go to heaven, and there is no way to go to hell." ”
Fu Ling'er felt that her brother's eyes suddenly became gloomy and terrifying, and when she saw the corners of her brother's mouth slightly upturned, she couldn't help but have goosebumps on her body, and her big eyes looked at her brother suspiciously, and she secretly said in her heart: "What's wrong with my brother, this look is so scary." ”
The younger sister secretly guessed, and he was also constantly thinking about countermeasures: "How can I lure them out? It's feasible to let Ling'er be the bait, it's too dangerous, I definitely can't do this, so I'd better do it myself." ”
