"Okay, won't this make sense, lest she come to me again in the future that I am her daughter, after so many years of nurturing, Brother Changting has already lost the silver, since there is still reason for this matter.

Zhao Qingzao nodded, and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Shen Changting also came back from Grandma Niu, and when he saw Zhao Qingzao like that, he immediately said with concern: "Qingzao, what is this trouble." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the village chief and Wang again, and said hello to the village chief.

Seeing this, Wang's heart became more and more resentful, and he said in a strange manner: "Yo, the head of the house is back, tsk, it's okay to let a woman come out, it's useless." ”

"What are you doing when you come here to steal my things. Zhao Qingzao sneered, this woman just can't fight if she doesn't fight.

Wang was half angry, pointed at Shen Changting, and scolded: "Shen Changting, you dare to ask for this spicy woman, I really don't know how you can manage her, carefully one day she runs out to steal people, let you be a green hat, you are still happy at home." ”

Shen Changting doesn't like to argue with women, after all, he is a scholar, and he still has self-cultivation, but his face also sank.

Seeing this, the Wang family became more and more unable to see Shen Changting clearly, after all, Shen Changting was a well-known good man in the village, and honest people were easy to bully, so she immediately pouted and scolded: "Also, you spent a few taels of silver to buy my white-eyed wolf's brute, and the white-eyed wolf who is still taught by the relationship now does not recognize people." ”

"Shut up. "The village chief really can't stand it, I really didn't expect this Wang family to be so broken-mouthed.

Zhao Qingzao's face sank completely, stared at the Wang family fiercely, and said, "Brother Changting, I see that you will still talk to the county lord tomorrow, lock this woman up, it's best to keep it locked up and don't let it back." ”

"Zhao Qingzao, you dare!"

Wang sneered and said, "What do you think you are, counting on him, a poor scholar, you let him try it and see if he can touch the gate of the yamen." ”

"You long-tongued woman knows a fart, my brother Changting is now in the yamen, and it is just a matter of one sentence to punish you, you think that no one is as useless as you. Zhao Qingzao looked disdainful, and his words scared him to death.

Wang was really frightened, glared, and said with some jealousy: "Who is bluffing, he can still go to work in the yamen, the sun is almost out in the west." ”

Having said that, the Wang family is still a little weak after all.

"Then you can try it. Zhao Qingzao looked fearless.

The village chief was also taken aback, looked at Shen Changting, and said, "Changting, are you on an errand in the yamen now?"

Shen Changting shook his head and said, "It's just that I know how to read, and the county lord asked me to help me do a long job." ”

"That's pretty good, too. The village chief suddenly looked at Shen Changting, and his gaze changed slightly.

The county order of this year, for ordinary people, is the heaven on their heads, no one dares to offend, let alone the county order, it is an ordinary servant, sometimes it is over if you can not offend, Shen Changting can enter the eyes of the county order, where can they be presumptuous.

The Wang family was also stunned suddenly, this time she really knew that she was afraid, in case Shen Changting really chewed the root of his tongue with the county order, and it would be a vain to lock her up, it would be useless to call it a broken day, after all, the old Zhao family was not so capable, and he could move the county order.

But when Wang's eyes fell on the two dead ducks, there was a heartache again, and he said reluctantly: "I don't care, I don't care about other things, those two ducks are mine, you give them back to me, you have already taken back your chicken, you still want to be greedy for this duck." ”

"Think beautifully, my old hen is alive, and you killed it, this duck should be compensated, and I don't need money to buy vegetable seedlings in the field, I haven't asked you to lose money yet, you're not done yet." ”

Zhao Qingzao's eyes widened, and he didn't plan to return the duck at all.

Wang Shi immediately became anxious, pulled the village chief, and said: "Village chief, look, even if I take a chicken, she will take the chicken back, and now she has killed my two ducks, this thing is absolutely not good, my family lives on such a little thing, isn't this a desire to force people to death? No, I can't live." ”

"If you can't live, it's better to die, oh, the kitchen knife is here, wipe your neck yourself." ”

Zhao Qingzao's face was expressionless, and his tone was even colder.

"Green dates!" Shen Changting frowned slightly, and there were some things that could not be said nonsense.

The village chief was also shocked by Zhao Qingzao's fierceness, and he didn't know what to say for a while, looking at Wang's look of dying or living, he finally sighed and said, "Qingzao, return the duck to her, you didn't suffer any loss." ”

Zhao Qingzao didn't think about it, and said with a resolute face: "No, stealing my things, is it okay to come back, then what else do you want Wang Fa to do, my old hen is still bought for a hundred copper plates, it's all dead, half of it is not worth it, it's not bad if I didn't report to the official, and I plan not to compensate, how can there be such a good thing." ”

"No, absolutely not, the duck returned me, and I was still laying eggs, so I was killed by you, my two ducks are not as good as your chickens, Zhao Qingzao, you are talking nonsense, I am not done with you." Wang was so angry that he vomited blood, and he sat on the ground and simply couldn't get up.

Not only that, but she also pulled the village chief and said: "Village chief, what should you do about this, this duck is gone, I really can't live these days, my family is already poor, I can't eat, and I lost these two treasures, this is to force us to death." ”

The village chief's face darkened, and he hesitated for a long time before he said to Zhao Qingzao: "Qingzao, give it back to her, her family is really having a hard time." ”

"No, who made her hands unclean, her family is not having a good time, my family is having a good time, I don't have the strength to work now, Brother Changting is not in good health, their family is young and strong, where is it worse than my family, no, absolutely not." Zhao Qingzao resolutely refused to return the two ducks.

The nest of the old Zhao family, if they don't let them suffer a loss, they will be bullied by others, especially the Wang family, who is afraid of the soft.

Seeing this, the village chief looked embarrassed, glanced at Shen Changting, but found that Shen Changting frowned, and seemed to have nothing to do with Zhao Qingzao, so he couldn't help but persuade: "Forget it, otherwise, if you give one back to them, the other one will compensate you for your losses, what do you think?" said and stabbed Shen Changting again, and said, "Changting, you say something." ”

Seeing this, Shen Changting said to Zhao Qingzao: "Qingzao, listen to the village chief." ”

Zhao Qingzao looked reluctant, but he also knew that this was the biggest concession, after all, Shen Changting was also an outsider, sighed in his heart, threw a duck to the Wang family, and said: "Here you go, ugly words ahead, next time, I will burn your house." ”

"Hmph, something without conscience can't kill you if you eat it. ”

Wang looked at the duck in Zhao Qingzao's hand with a sad face, gritted her teeth, and left in disgrace, she knew that this loss was in vain.

"Okay, it's okay, Brother Changting, let's go in, village chief, come in and have some tea. ”

Zhao Qingzao waved his hand, passed away the excitement, slowly entered the house, threw down the village chief to talk to Shen Changting, ran to the kitchen, and it was too late to pluck the duck, brandished the kitchen knife to disembowelment the duck first, removed the internal organs, chopped the duck in half, held a small basket, and wrapped it with straw by the way, so he carried it and took it to the village chief.

"Village chief, thank you for upholding justice this time, those who see it have a share, and this duck will also share half of you. ”

Although Zhao Qingzao was a little reluctant, their family did not lack such a little, and in the end they still felt that the points were given to the village chief.

Seeing that Zhao Qingzao was so polite, the village chief hurriedly shirked it and said, "You girl, how can you do this." ”

"It's okay, if there's anything going on in the future, we might have to trouble you. Zhao Qingzao smiled and generously stuffed the basket into the village chief's hand.

Seeing this, the village chief had no choice but to accept it with a dry smile, and he didn't stay long, and left after a few diligent instructions.

After the people left, the house was finally clean, Shen Changting looked at Zhao Qingzao's hands were worn out, and pulled Zhao Qingzao to take medicine, muttering in his mouth: "You don't have to be like this, the Wang family is also your biological mother, and you have indeed gone too far." ”

Zhao Qingzao snorted coldly and said, "Brother Changting, don't look at her pitiful appearance, you think she is a good person, she planned to sell me to hooligans, not to mention that since I was a child, she has never regarded me as a daughter." ”

This is the truth, because she is a daughter and not a son, so she has not liked the family since she was a child, Mrs. Zhao is eager to beat her to death, this is okay, the Wang family is also a master of the nest, she dare not bully when others are cruel outside, so she can only play tricks on her daughter at home.

"But no matter what, they raised you so big. Shen Changting sighed, there were some things he really couldn't bear to say, after all, no matter how you say it, Zhao Qingzao is also for the good of this family.

"Brother Changting, it's not right for you to think like this, you are not in that home, I don't know how I got my life. ”

Zhao Qingzao's tone was a little gloomy, and he said quietly: "When I was young, when the Wang family quarreled with my father, whenever something went wrong, he would come back and pinch me, or he wouldn't give me food, and then I was older, so I was asked to work all day long, so I didn't forget it, and bullied me with the old woman at home, and a few times, I almost didn't beat me to death." ”

This kind of thing Zhao Qingzao was possessed later, and she didn't have much of a deep impression, but she inherited the memory of the original owner, and she still knew very well what happened in the past.

It's just to say this, just to make Shen Changting feel better, after all, Shen Changting grew up in this world originally, and what he has received is also the dogma of this world, the word filial piety is engraved into the bones, this kind of enmity between mother and daughter is indeed not so easy to accept.

Shen Changting saw that Zhao Qingzao was pitiful, and he felt a little distressed for a while.

Zhao Qingzao simply added oil and vinegar, and continued: "Do you think they raised me for me, is it really for me, isn't it, I don't know how many times, they are all discussing, how much silver should I sell, originally wanted to sell it for a high price, but people saw that I was thin and small, and they were unwilling to give more silver, and they became less and less willing to treat me as a daughter, and when they encountered something that didn't go well, they beat me." ”

Zhao Qingzao said, squeezing out a few tears by the way.

Shen Changting was moved when he heard this, and when he saw that Zhao Qingzao's tears were falling, he also panicked, and hurriedly comforted: "Eh, don't cry, it's their fault, don't cry, don't cry, aren't you having a good time now." ”

"Yes. Zhao Qingzao snorted and sniffled.

Shen Changting touched Zhao Qingzao's head and said with a smile: "Okay, don't cry, don't I know, don't blame you, don't blame you, don't cry." ”

"It's okay, I'm fine. ”

Zhao Qingzao smiled unnaturally, an old witch with a mental age older than Shen Changting, and she was pretending to be a child, she herself felt blushing.
