Chapter 953: The Hu Family's Brothers and Sisters
Xiao Jin frowned and thought for a while, then sighed and said: "There is no evidence for this, and he hasn't said it all, we can't be sure, and in addition to Master Fu, the third prince has always had two hearts, so we must find accurate evidence and know which party did it." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" After speaking, he lifted the carriage curtain and looked at the dynamics outside.
Xuan Miao'er also understood that this matter was not so easy, otherwise they wouldn't need to come at risk: "Then let's stay first and then look for clues, this matter is not so simple after all." ”
"We must be careful to ensure our own safety, understand?" Xiao Jin couldn't help but admonish.
Xuan Miao'er nodded vigorously: "Well, I remember." ”
The two of them entered the village and didn't know the specific residence of the Hu family's old mansion, so they had to recruit someone to inquire first.
When the carriage came to the middle of the village, Xuan Miao'er took off her veil, got out of the carriage, and found a woman to ask for directions: "Auntie, let me ask you for directions." ”
Because Xiao Jin's face was too scary, he came out to ask passers-by to see his face, so Xuan Miaoer came down.
The Hu family brothers and sisters were still young when they left, and they hadn't come back for more than ten years, so there was nothing wrong with entering the village and not finding a place.
The woman looked at Xuan Miao'er's clothes and the carriage, and could see that she was not from the village, but should have some identity: "Miss, are you passing by?" I advise you to go back, don't go inside, it's not peaceful now." ”
Xuan Miaoer pretended to be pitiful, and covered the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "Auntie doesn't know, my brother and I came back to the grave, my father won the Jinshi in the scientific examination that year, and the whole family went to the capital, but my father was not accustomed to the water and soil outside, and he did not take office, and his health was not good these years, and he couldn't travel long distances, and he didn't come back for more than ten years, and his father has always wanted to wait for his body to come back, and he thought that my father's health is worse this year, I'm afraid that I won't survive this winter, and he said that he would let our brothers and sisters go back to their hometowns to see and repair the ancestral tomb." ”
Xuan Miaoer and Xiao Jin discussed, as long as they came back to see people, they would bite and say that Hu Jinshi had not taken office, had no rights, and if he didn't work, he wouldn't survive the winter, and his family was not doing well, so he must make the people in the village think so, so as to ensure their safety.
At this time, in order to cooperate with Xuan Miao'er, Xiao Jin also opened the carriage curtain to see that he deliberately showed his face with a birthmark, and the village knew the yin and yang face of the Hu family.
"Oh, are you surnamed Hu, Hu Jinshi's children?" The woman saw Xiao Jin's face and slapped her thigh, as if she remembered herself.
Xuan Miao'er hurriedly nodded closely: "Auntie still remembers me?" This father talks about our Shangling Village all day long, but he can't come back, the more sick he is, the more this person wants his homeland, and he says that he will let us come back for a trip, saying that it is good to take back a handful of his homeland. As he spoke, he covered the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, still showing great sadness.
The woman looked at Xuan Miao'er sympathetically, and looked up and down again: "This girl has grown so big, you are kind to come back, but it is not the right time to come back." After speaking, he sighed, and he was also worried about them.
"When I went into the village with my brother, I saw why there were so many officers and soldiers? Xuan Miao'er looked around cautiously when she spoke, looking timid and afraid.
The woman also looked around, for fear that others would come, and when she saw that no one was nearby, she whispered: "This is not a big official from the capital, who collects grain, saying that it is for disaster relief, but this levy is not so levyed, almost watching us harvest, just leave a little, and take the rest, leaving not enough for the whole family to drink porridge for a few months, this day is not good, you listen to your aunt, you go quickly." ”
Of course, Xuan Miao'er couldn't go, so she came for this, but she couldn't say that, she could only sensationalize: "Auntie, I'm afraid my father's body is ...... , so we want to go back like this, his old man promised to be angry, and I came back with my brother to repair the ancestral tomb and burn some paper money for the ancestors, maybe I can give my father a new life, so far back, why can't I just go back. ”
The woman understood the feelings of the brother and sister, and then remembered that they were going to ask for directions just now: "You want to ask where the Hu family's house is, you can't remember the little promise when you leave, it just so happens that I am also on the way, let's go together." ”
"That's so thankful for my aunt, my aunt got in the car and walked together?" Xuan Miao'er made a gesture of invitation.
The woman waved her hand and pointed to the front: "There are not many steps, but I will keep going forward, and after five or six more houses, I will arrive." ”
Xuan Miao'er looked in that direction and knew that there were indeed not a few steps to say: "Then it's hard aunt, by the way, the walnut tree in our yard is still there, right?"
"Here, there are a lot of walnuts every year, but they are also picked by the children in the village, and I don't know if you can come back, if you don't pick them, they will fall to the ground......" The woman was afraid that the master would come back, and if she saw a child picking walnuts in the yard, she would scold the children, and her own children would often pick them.
"Auntie, don't worry about it, if we don't come back, it's a waste if no one picks this thing, and it's not a matter if it rots in the yard, and the children will help us if they pick it." Xuan Miao'er saw that the woman was nervous, and hurriedly spoke.
The woman looked at Xuan Miao'er and felt that this girl didn't look good, but her heart and eyes were very good, and she also understood people's minds, so she didn't have much defense: "Your family has not lived in it for many years, I'm afraid that you will be damp this time, I will send you some firewood in a while, you burn the kang, my family lives in the east courtyard of your house, my husband's surname is Liang, if you have any needs, you can also go to me." ”
Xuan Miaoer hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Aunt Liang, I'm afraid I'm going to be more disturbed these days." "These distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and they promise to trouble others these days, so Xuan Miaoer must leave a good impression.
In fact, it is not surprising to meet a neighbor, because this village is not big, and they know that the Hu family probably lives in the east of the village.
After walking a few more steps, Aunt Liang stopped and pointed to the dilapidated house in front of her: "This is your Hu family, and the one in front of you is my family, I'll go back first, and I'll send you firewood later." That Aunt Liang said very enthusiastically.
"Then it's troublesome aunt, let's go and clean up the house first. Xuan Miao'er thanked her again, and watched Aunt Liang go home.
Xiao Jin also got out of the carriage, looked at the dilapidated house in front of him, the half-collapsed wall, and frowned: "Let's go in first and see which house can still live." ”
The two of them didn't bring many people, Xuan Miaoer brought Qianluo and Xinjing, Qianluo has good kung fu, Xinjing will use poison, and these two people are life-saving at critical times.
Xiao Jin brought a personal entourage, as well as a master of disguise and makeup, who disguised himself as a coachman. (To be continued.) )
