219. Chapter 219: The Root of the Bane
In fact, even if Qiu Zhenning didn't pick up You Shi, You Shi was also flustered with her little feet, thinking about going home, she wanted to set her house on fire as soon as possible.
Didn't Leng Xiaoxi say it?
All the villagers who divided the house were burned down, and if their own house was also on fire, then Leng Xiaoxi would divide the house into several large rooms for the family according to his own requirements.
The capital can't go to the capital for the time being, so it's good to live in a new building.
She wanted to enjoy the new bedding, the new furniture, and the new life in the kitchen.
She wants to eat refined white rice and refined white noodles, so that she can live happily when she thinks about it.
Therefore, You Shi returned home, and without discussing with his family, he entered the yard and first hugged a large hug of firewood to light his house.
When the smoke rises, the complacency makes people want to laugh when they see it.
The smoke quickly annihilated the outline of the house, and You Shi shouted at the top of his throat and shouted for his family to come out quickly.
"If you don't come out soon, do you want to be burned to death?"
You Shi's sharp, piercing voice called out the family members who were hiding at home waiting for You's good news.
The first ones to pop out of the house were Cui'er and Qiu Zhenping.
"Mother, what are you doing here? Why did you set your house on fire?" Qiu Zhenping said angrily, and was about to step forward to pull the burned firewood.
Cui'er was anxious when she saw it, so she stepped forward and grabbed her father-in-law, turned her head to look at You Shi, and said, "Mother, let's do this, Xiaoxi will really let us live in a new building?"
"You don't have anything to live in the new building, and in the future, it has nothing to do with us where you two like to live. ”
You Shi was angry when he saw the two of them, and he couldn't help shouting.
"What?" Cui'er and Qiu Zhenping looked horrified.
"Why, why can't I live in a new house if you can live in it?" Cui'er glared angrily and shouted at You Shi.
"Why, just because you are not alive, I told Leng Xiaoxi about you setting fire to the house. ”
In a word, immediately called Cui'er like a duck whose neck was stepped on, and straightened her neck, but she couldn't make a sound.
You Shi didn't have time to pay attention to Cui'er and Qiu Zhenping's surprise, and looked at each other with angry expressions.
She ran back to the house and brought out the little money she had and what she thought was valuable and what she liked.
Qiu Yinghai and her two girls also escaped.
The firelight reflected You Shi's dancing and excited face, and the family was frightened by her behavior.
When the tired villagers were led by Leng Xiaoxi and rushed from outside the village, the poor house of the You family had collapsed into ruins.
Qiu Zhenning was the first to come to You Shi's side, and he couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to worry about where You Shi's family lived.
"Xiaoxi! You said that there was a fire at home, and you led people to put out the fire, but it was not extinguished, so that our family has nowhere to live. ”
You Shi hurriedly rushed to Leng Xiaoxi's side, speaking very quickly, and the joy that he couldn't wait for made people know what the truth of the matter was at a glance.
"You burned down your house, don't you want to live in a new house?"
Xiao Xi looked at You Shi's black and gray, and couldn't hide his happy face, so he dropped this sentence coldly, turned around and left.
"What?" You Shi was stunned, and she chased after her.
"What the hell is going on with this fire, you know that since you can light a fire, you can arrange a place for the family to live. ”
Leng Xiaoxi, who had no room for negotiation, left, and You Shi was stupid and stayed where he was.
The villagers of Xingshan Village knew the truth of the matter, and they all looked at You Shi with disdain, and the sarcastic words blew into the ears of the family with the night wind.
"You deserve it, you deserve it. ”
"What is this called, what is it to shoot yourself in the foot. ”
"You can't live if you do your own iniquity, you deserve no place to live. ”
"I think this family deserves to freeze to death. ”
"It's a cool night tonight. ”
"I heard that there was heavy snow in the second half of the night. ”
In the unscrupulous voices of the villagers, the faces of the Qiu family were really colorful and speechless.
The villagers went home separately, Qiu Zhenning had a calm face, and wanted to say something, but he thought of Leng Xiaoxi, Ji Boming, and the luxurious Zhenjun Mansion, after all, he was ruthless and turned around to leave.
"Qiu Zhenning, you conscienceless thing, why don't you care about our family, what kind of ecstasy soup did you let Leng Xiaoxi eat?"
Qiu Zhenping stepped forward angrily and grabbed Qiu Zhenning's collar.
was originally uneasy, but now that Qiu Zhenping was so troubled, Qiu Zhenning thought of the injury on his head, and immediately glared at Qiu Zhenping.
"You deserve it, you can't live if you do it yourself, and in the future, I, Qiu Zhenning, will have nothing to do with your family. ”
With a flick of his sleeves, Qiu Zhenning resolutely left, leaving the family standing in the cold wind.
You Shi was stupid now, and he tore his throat and cried.
"What's the funeral, it's all your mother-in-law who is a loser, look, where does the family live on this cold day?"
Qiu Yinghai, who was in charge, roared angrily, and the voice arrived, and the slap also fell on You Shi's face.
"Ah...... Ah!!!h
The family was beaten, and no one stepped forward to stop them.
On the second day, when the sky was bright, the ground was covered with white snow, and people pushed open the door, and a biting cold wind blew, making people shiver.
Smoke rose from the roofs of each house, the smell of food wafted out, and the figure of You's family appeared at the door of the house and the building.
They trembled and wore unburned sacks, their faces covered with black ash, and their hair tousled with their hair, like people stretching out their hands that had been frozen into chicken feet.
"Folks, do well, give me something hot to eat! ”
"I jumped in the snow all night before I froze to death, can you tell me to come into the house to warm up?"
Leng Xiaoxi got up, and Qiu Zhenning came to the outhouse of her room to wait.
Today is the day when Leng Xiaoxi wants to bury his grandmother Bi Chuan and his sister Leng Xiaoling.
"Sister-in-law, I have arranged the burial, grandma's coffin and my sister's coffin are outside, I took people to dig the pit overnight last night. ”
Hearing this, Leng Xiaoxi's eyes turned red again, thinking of the tragic death of her grandmother and sister, it was like a steel needle piercing deep into her heart, and she was almost breathless with self-blame and remorse.
It's all my fault, if I had turned off the fire before going to bed, nothing like this would have happened.
"Zhenning, thank you! There was also a fire in your house, and you are still worried about the affairs of your sister-in-law's family. ”
"Sister-in-law, look at what you said, aren't we a family?
Qiu Zhenning smiled innocently and grinned, his eyes were obviously full of red bloodshots.
When Leng Xiaoxi saw Qiu Zhenning like this, he immediately thought of the fire in You's house last night.
Raising his eyes through the window and looking at the white outside, on such a cold day, I don't know how the You family came over for a night.
The kindness of nature made Leng Xiaoxi say to Qiu Zhenning.
"Wait a minute, you're taking the time to look at your family. ”
Hearing this, Qiu Zhenning's face froze, he thought about it, and said hatefully.
"Deserve it, it's my ignorant mother who is making trouble and causing trouble for my sister-in-law, and let them fend for themselves!"
Hearing this, Leng Xiaoxi's expression froze.
"Zhenning, you shouldn't say this sentence, how to say it, they are also the parents who gave birth to you, and the parenting grace of your parents is greater than the sky, you go and see how they are. ”
As she spoke, Leng Xiaoxi turned around and took out fifty taels of silver from her few pieces of silver.
Not for anything else, just because You Shi once raised Ji Boming, although You Shi does things that people hate, and the roots of hatred itch.
But she still can't see their family homeless.
"Zhenning, don't say that I gave you this fifty taels of silver, when you are busy today, you can gather some bricks and wood and build their house. ”
Looking at the fifty taels of silver in front of him, Qiu Zhenning's heart immediately surged with a wave of heat, and for a moment, he was really grateful to Leng Xiaoxi in his heart.
But......
Extremely fast to cover the trace of evil greed in the bottom of the eye.
Leng Xiaoxi still doesn't know how many curses she has planted for the future because of her kindness...... That's of course an afterthought.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, you are the lucky star of our family, and I, Qiu Zhenning, will remember my sister-in-law's great kindness for the rest of my life. ”
On the third day after Xingshan Village caught fire, Ji Boming learned about it, but because he was newly promoted to an official, there were too many trivial matters in the court, and a large number of new recruits were recruited in the army.
Leng Xiaoxi didn't expect Ji Boming to come back, her father-in-law naturally sympathized with his difficulties.
A few kilometers away from the village, on the side of a dug tomb, almost all the villagers of Xingshan Village came.
Leng Degui and Zhang Xiuying were unable to come to the funeral due to physical reasons.
Xiao Xiao, who was full of mountains, seemed to be remembering his deceased relatives, and Leng Xiaoxi stood in front of the two coffins, one large and one small, with tears streaming down his face.
"Grandma, little sister, the two of you are on the other side of the world, not lonely with each other, grandma, little sister, if there is really an afterlife, if there is a crossing, I think we will still be a family in the future, at that time, Xiaoxi I promise, I will be careful, take good care of you, and will never let you suffer from this." ”
There were too many things they wanted to say, but they couldn't hear them anymore, and tears filled Xiaoxi's eyes.
Qiu Zhenning thoughtfully stepped forward, pulled Leng Xiaoxi away, and ordered the people who had been prepared a long time ago to put the coffin into the pit smoothly.
Leng Xiaoxi tearfully and compassionately filled in the first shovel of soil, and then, the soil that was raised soon made Leng Xiaoxi no longer see the coffin, and snow fell from the sky, and the soil was halfway up the mountain, so a new mound was added.
Not far away, new graves are one after another, all of which are funeral goods after the fire.
In the next few days, Leng Xiaoxi carefully served his delirious father and mother, and personally prepared medicines for them.
The candied fruit factory was built again, Leng Xiaoxi recruited a large number of workers, and the production of the fruit wine workshop and beer workshop was much larger than usual.
