After hearing the news, Mo Xiaohe went around the street again, bought food and food, and did not follow the village chief's ox cart back to Tianshui Village until noon.

"Little lady of the Gu family, there is a sentence, we don't know whether to say it or not."

In the back row of the ox cart, there was a woman in her twenties, Mo Xiaohe had seen her, but she was not very familiar with her, she only knew that this person had a broken mouth, loved gossip the most, and had a bad reputation in the village.

"Sister-in-law, just say what you have."

Mo Xiaohe looked down at the oil paper bag in her hand, but her mind was not on this, she had just gone to the city to buy something, she went to the grain and oil shop, the price of rice and grain was higher than before, but it was not as normal as her cousin Li Xiu said, queuing up to buy rice and grain.

However, it is also true that the border city has always been used as a weather vane, and the sudden construction of fortifications by the imperial court and the soaring price of food will inevitably cause alarm and panic among the people.

"I heard your cousin's mother-in-law say that she is a water-based poplar, and she lived in your house because she couldn't get along in her hometown and had a bad reputation."

After the woman finished speaking, she pretended to cover her mouth with her hand, and her face was apologetic, "Oh, look at me when I open my mouth, I didn't open the door when I spoke, but I didn't have a bad heart, I just wanted to remind my sister." ”

There is such a cousin, it is best not to bring it to the house, the woman of the water-based poplar flower, the body is the same as no bones, when she sees the man, she can't wait to lean on, take the initiative to offer courtesy, the woman chases the man, the compartment yarn, the initiative to send it to the door, don't play for nothing, who will refuse?

Although Mo Xiaohe's husband is ugly, he is tall and has excess energy, and he is very strong at first glance, otherwise, how can a beautiful little lady like Mo Xiaohe marry her? People in the village privately say that cousins are under the same roof, maybe they share a husband.

The woman's words made Mo Xiaohe see the other side of women in this era, with sinister intentions, and extremely narrow-minded, she was frightened by such a disgusting idea, and then she was extremely angry, what two daughters serve a husband, she can't satisfy her husband alone, who said it?

"It's not your cousin's mother-in-law, you told us, you know?"

The woman blinked ambiguously, indicating her understanding, sisters have served a husband together, and there have been many years of it, nothing at all, and behind closed doors, it is all their own business.

Mo Xiaohe's face turned red, and finally she was bruised, and she almost didn't come up in one breath, shameless people, she has seen a lot, the village chief of Mojia Village who was broken in the past, the widow who wanted to seduce Gu Zheng in the village, and the strange people who went to Dayue Kyoto and met seven seven or eight eight along the way, but it was the first time she had seen such shameless.

The old pious woman took the initiative to break the news, and this long-tongued woman knew about it, and it was also spread all over the village! This is for my cousin, she and her husband have on their heads! In case she hears the wind, it can also play a role in breaking the divide, killing two birds with one stone.

This dead mother-in-law, it is estimated that she has become the eye of her heart at the age of life, so she should be sent to the harem, be an old mother, and come up with bad ideas all day long, which is equivalent to the existence of Mama Rong!

The rumors are not credible, but they can still become a topic of conversation after dinner, the villagers have been quite depressed recently, it is estimated that they will point to this as a joke, Mo Xiaohe felt that when she went out in the morning, the people in the village looked at her strangely, thinking of Mo Daya's abnormality, I was afraid that my cousin had already heard the rumors, but she didn't tell her, for fear that she would know that she was troublesome.

Is it tolerable or unbearable! Even if the uncle endures it, the aunt can't bear it anymore!

Mo Xiaohe took a deep breath, and then took a deep breath, she opened her mouth to accommodate an egg, her expression was weird, and she stumbled, "Auntie, this is too ridiculous, right?" My cousin had just been divorced, and before that, she didn't live with me, and she lived with her mother-in-law at her grandaunt's house next door. ”

During that time, in order to inquire about Li Er's news, the old goddess went out for activities all day long, so everyone in the village generally knew the situation.

Seeing that Mo Xiaohe was preoccupied, the woman who was good at gossip was happy in her heart, and whispered, "Sister, is there anything inside?" You said that you can't let others splash dirty water, you have to fight back, if you are sad, just talk to me, my aunt promises, I won't tell others. ”

Promise not to say it? Mo Xiaohe lowered his head and smiled sarcastically, maybe tomorrow morning, everyone in the village will know that the long-tongued woman is even more unreliable than farting. However, since the old pious woman wants to be the first year of junior high school, don't blame her for being fifteen and creating rumors, she has only more exciting here!

"What are you asking me to say this?"

Mo Xiaohe was entangled for a long time, and beckoned to the woman, and the person immediately understood and listened to him.

"My cousin's father-in-law left early, and my mother-in-law was widowed at a young age, with a drag oil bottle, and she never remarried, so she made a living by selling insoles, which is really not easy."

Repeatedly saying bad things about the old pious woman is not convincing at all, just like two people who have a festival and say that each other's is not. Mo Xiaohe's cleverness lies in the fact that she is very good at setting off the atmosphere, and she is foreshadowing for the next smear.

"Alas, orphans and widows, no, unlike our villagers, there are still a few acres of land, a little tired, so I can eat a full meal, if it doesn't work, the people in the village will help me."

The woman sighed a few words, seeing that Mother-in-law Mo was wearing gold and silver, as if she had a bit of a family background, how could a woman suddenly get rich? It made her think about it a little more.

"Yes, the insole is only two pennies a pair, except for the fabric, needles and threads, what can you earn!"

In these days, almost all unmarried girls and married women can do needlework, and only singles, coolies on the docks, and no one to help them in life, will go to the market to buy insoles.

"My cousin just knew her mother-in-law's secret, so she was divorced, and when the two quarreled, my cousin would only cry, and she was cowardly, according to me, she had to announce it to the public!"

As soon as Mo Xiaohe was excited, his voice was amplified, and the people on the ox cart looked over and stretched out their ears to eavesdrop.

"Secret?"

The woman's soybean-like eyes kept spinning and turning, exuding a bright light of excitement, and immediately cooperated, "Why is it still a secret?" ”

"Alas, in fact, it's nothing, you say that orphans and widows can't eat enough, what can you do? Regardless of yourself, you can't watch the baby suffer! Mo Xiaohe blinked, halfway through the words, the woman immediately understood, she couldn't go on, if she wanted to live, she could only rely on men, in fact, there were many women in this situation, they all went out to sell, but in the name of a good family. A man can go once, throw down a few copper plates, the cost is low, and he can make a fresh one, earn a ** silver, and barely make a living.

"Of course, it's not over."

Mo Xiaohe will never show mercy, she likes to treat others the way she does the most, the other party splashes dirty water on them, she returns the ink, to ensure that it is darker, and she makes it up blindly, not only the old pious woman has this ability.

"What else?"

The woman had already received the big news, was excited, cold, and was told that this was not the point, and she held her breath and waited for the next big event.

"Alas, I can't say this, thanks to the fact that I am a little lady who is married, otherwise if it is a girl's family, I am afraid that it will damage my reputation and I will not be able to marry!"

Mo Xiaohe's eyebrows were tightly locked, and when she saw the entrance of the village, she gave a few hints that made people reverie, "It's that after my cousin gave birth, one night, I saw her mother-in-law and her husband sleeping in a quilt, naked......"

At the end of the point, Mo Xiaohe didn't say much about the rest of the words, she carefully observed the woman's expression, and saw that the other party's color changed a few times, and it seemed that she understood the meaning.

"What a sin! No wonder slandering your cousin, that woman can only think of filthy things! ”

The woman got off the ox cart in a hurry, staggered on foot, probably still in shock, did not react, Mo Xiaohe had no psychological pressure, walked briskly home, thinking in her heart, it is best before tomorrow, everyone in the village can know.

After dark, Gu Zheng arrived home, in the winter, his sweat soaked his clothes, and he was blown by the cold wind, which made his heart cold.

Mo Xiaohe hurriedly handed over hot water and cloth towels, and asked her husband to scrub them, she was distressed, where was the conscription, it was clearly a life! That is, Gu Zheng has good physical strength, otherwise he won't be able to get up the next day.

"Lady, take a break, I'll do it myself."

Gu Zheng wiped his body and changed into a set of clean clothes, he came back late, in order not to disturb their husband and wife, Mo Daya had already eaten, slept first, and the door was closed, leaving only the two oil lamps in the stove and the hall.

"I went into the city and bought crispy chicken, as well as braised pork liver, and made a soup, let's eat."

Mo Xiaohe brought food from the stove room, and briefly talked about the details of tracking the old pious woman in the city, in order not to leave a bad impression on her husband, she deliberately concealed the scene in the carriage on the return trip.

"I know that this is the case, with a coffin board in the mezzanine, the upper layer is the corpse, and the lower layer is filled with Li Er."

Gu Zheng gave the chicken leg to his own lady, thoughtfully, his eyes flashed a sharp light, at present, he must leave Tianshui Village openly, and serving here can only be a waste of time, if the two countries want to go to war, they must make plans early.

"Husband, how can we debunk it?"

The deceased is the biggest, or the innocent who was stoned to death, Mo Xiaohe really can't bear to turn over the coffin of the family, on the way to the funeral, put forward this request, whether it is the official or the people in the village, they will not agree, disturbing the deceased, will be poked in the back!

"I'll go out after dinner, don't worry, I have a way!"

Gu Zheng curled the corners of his mouth slightly, Mo Xiaohe was thinking, she didn't catch her husband's instantaneous expression, she asked one after another, Gu Zheng lowered his head, and slowly picked up the vegetables, but he didn't say anything.

"Hmph, you're not allowed to go to bed tonight!"

Mo Xiaohe is angry, everyone is curious, and she is the same, it is too much to have an idea to sell Guanzi!

"Lady, I won't say it, you can watch it tomorrow, and if you say it, there will be no expectations."

After eating and drinking, Gu Zheng put down the dishes and chopsticks, returned to the room, and began to pack the package, he didn't live in Tianshui Village for a long time, and he didn't buy many things, his clothes were packed in two bags, and there was nothing else to take away.

Mo Xiaohe was lying on the bed tossing and turning, but she couldn't sleep, she counted the sheep, during which her husband went out, that is, for a very short time, as if going to the toilet, and when she came back, she directly turned off the light.

……

Today is the day of mourning, Mo Daya didn't sleep all night, she got up before dawn, she knew that the old Qianpo would get Li Er away today, as long as she entered the city, and then wanted to find someone, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, she thought about it last night, was she too greedy, and wanted to catch the old Qianpo and Li Eryi, if you report Li Er first, you can catch one.

"Cousin, it's so early, there's still an hour before dawn, right?"

Mo Xiaohe yawned, she didn't sleep well, she heard the sound of rustling in the yard in a daze, so she got up and washed, and when she was mourned at dawn, she would not come back when the opportunity was not lost.

After eating breakfast with a heavy heart, Mo Daya has been in a state of distraction, breaking steamed buns in her hand and stuffing them into her nostrils, Mo Xiaohe really can't stand it, "Cousin, if you pack up your things, let's go out of the city today and leave after dawn." ”

"Really?"

Mo Daya slapped the table, as if she had woken up from a dream, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Waiting is the most difficult and the most torturous, and finally when the sky is white, the sound of suona is faintly heard in the village.

I thought that the people in the village were not interested in mourning, after all, it was a very unfortunate thing, but Mo Xiaohe didn't know, she was unintentionally inserted into the willows and willows, yesterday it was dark for the old pious woman, I heard that the old pious woman and the family members of the deceased were fellow villagers, and they wanted to leave Tianshui Village together, I was afraid that they would not see the excitement in the future, and the villagers were almost all in place except for the seventy and eighty who could not walk.

"There are a lot of people!"

Mo Daya saw the old pious woman in the middle of the crowd, the enemy saw each other, her eyes were red, she grabbed the handkerchief tightly with her hand, the green tendons on the back of her hand were exposed, and the blood vessels in the corners of her forehead jumped and jumped, she was now eager to pounce on it and strangle people directly.

"Cousin, don't be impatient, watch the play with peace of mind."

Mo Xiaohe was not in a hurry, she squinted her eyes, the main thing is that she believes that her husband has this ability, Gu Zheng never broke his word, since he said that he could do it, it was absolutely true.

"What are you doing here, you also watch the excitement when you mourn?"

The old goddess wanted to leave secretly, but who expected such a big battle, she was angry in her heart, and sprinkled it all on Mo Daya, "Cheap hoof, you are a mourning star, and it will be no good thing to have you." ”

"If you don't look at the excitement, how can I expose you!"

Mo Xiaohe laughed, his voice was a little louder, and the surrounding villagers thought of the rumors they heard yesterday, and they became more and more sure that they were true, and looked at the eyes of the old pious woman, they were very disgusted, it turned out that the mother and son had an unclear relationship, so they disliked their daughter-in-law so much.

At the end of the day, the funeral procession was all ready, the coffin was parked in the temporary mourning shed, there were two in total, several officials followed by him, and the funeral team beat gongs and drums, and was preparing to march to the entrance of the village.

The widower had just gotten the news, and he heard that he had been exempted from servitude and that he had been exempted from servitude, and he was thinking about reporting the two, and it was best to find a perfect excuse to round up the previous behavior of shielding Li Er and Gao Lao Wu, but the subordinates went back and forth, and the two disappeared.

He wanted to go through the back door and let himself have a light job, so he invited the official to drink last night, dug up the news, and was thinking about how to implement it, when he heard that the person had run away, he immediately dropped a set of dishes and dishes, and he was angry.

"Wait a minute, master, do you remember Gao Lao Wu and Li Er, who escaped from the government some time ago, they were hidden in these two coffins."

The funeral procession was about to hit the road, but was stopped by Gu Zheng, after he finished speaking, Mo Daya was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that it was the same as what she thought. But then came the worry, if you want to open the coffin for an autopsy, you must obtain the consent of the family.

"It's nonsense, ugly, you did it on purpose, right?"

The old pious woman immediately jumped to her feet, her face was hideous, "Cha Ye Mingcha, the cousin of this ugly daughter-in-law, because she hooked up with a man, was divorced by me, so she smeared me, and they should all be arrested!" ”

"True or false, what's the use of just relying on a mouth."

Mo Xiaohe muttered in a low voice, the people in the village saw that there was a lively watch, and they talked to each other, it was right to get up early, some people didn't have time to eat breakfast, but they couldn't wait to watch the play without spending copper plates.

"There can't be any rest."

Seeing that it was Gu Zheng, the official softened his attitude a little, and the starting point of wanting to report others was good, but he couldn't slander casually, he was unscrupulous, just now the two of them were responsible for transporting the corpse, and it was buried, the coffin was so big, it couldn't hide two people, "Besides, who wants to be with the corpse, aren't you afraid?" ”

"Woo, what kind of heart do you have, my husband had an accident, left us orphans and widows, and left like this, and didn't let him live in peace?"

The daughter-in-law of one of the deceased, when she received the look from the old pious woman, immediately knelt on the ground and cried, the voice was extremely desolate, "Poor master, you want to be the master of us, good people, can't you go quietly?" ”

"Yes, poor master, cooperate with the inspection, we have no opinion, you did the burial, we didn't interfere, and now we say that the coffin is opened, which is not in accordance with the rules!"

The two daughters-in-law, one singing red-faced and the other black-faced, cooperated seamlessly, and after hearing this, the villagers pointed and pointed, feeling that Gu Zheng was making an unreasonable request, and it was a bit excessive, and the deceased should not be disturbed.

"Well, since someone reported it, you have to prove your innocence."

The leader of the officials thought about it, and finally decided to open the coffin, only revealing a corner, and then asked a few brave villagers to confirm that there was still time to confirm, and after the solution was completed, he would mourn again, so as to save the audience from being unclear and having a pimple in his heart.

Gu Zheng was convinced of the arrangement of the officials, and the eldest son of the village chief of Tianshui Village stepped forward with two men to help check, and finally shook his head, the coffin could only accommodate one person, and there would be no harboring of fugitives.

On the lower floor of the coffin, Li Er was cursing Gu Zheng's ancestors for eighteen generations, and he now suspected that the matter of shaving his head and shaving his hair was done by this guy, so that he was always ridiculed, he couldn't raise his head, and he had to be sneaky in the toilet, if there was someone, he would definitely not go.

In another hour or two, he will be able to be free, or his mother is shrewd and has a way, although the dead man lying on the wooden board makes him unhappy, but if he wants to enter the city, he has to use the road guide, there is really no other good way.

"Brother Gu, what else do you have to say now?"

The official was very unhappy and waved his hand, "Let's go, don't delay the time of mourning!" ”

The funeral procession moved forward slowly, and Mo Daya watched the coffin being carried in the direction of the entrance of the village, and she suddenly had a sense of despair, did she just watch them leave?

"Calm, my husband must have expected this result and knew it."

Mo Xiaohe was not worried at all, and continued to follow the villagers' team to watch the excitement, she didn't believe that Gao Lao Wu and Li Er could escape under their noses.

Beating gongs and drums, suona and resentment, mixed with the bitter cries of the two daughters-in-law, the funeral procession slowly advanced, the quarry mountain is dangerous, in just one month, nearly thirty people were buried in the stone, in the future, this kind of scene, I don't know how many times to see, and the soft-hearted, red-eyed, followed by wiping tears.

Just when the funeral team was about to arrive at the entrance of the village and the villagers were about to go back, there was a sudden change, and they could only make two crisp sounds of "click", and the coffin board suddenly cracked, and then, with two muffled snorts, Li Er and Gao Lao Wu fell out from below.

"What's going on?"

Suddenly, everyone was dumbfounded, looking at the broken wood below, they immediately understood, and thought in their hearts, it was really hard to do this!

"Catch them! Li Er and Gao Lao Wu are all fugitives! ”

The official reacted quite quickly, several people were in charge of one, stepped forward and pressed the person quickly, Li Er and Gao Lao Wu were still dreaming of being able to escape, and they fell into a lot of meat, they couldn't react, and they were tied up firmly.

"Li Er's mother and these two women are all arrested, they must have something to do with them!"

Mo Xiaohe almost laughed out loud, her husband can obviously use violent means, so she has to do it, let them show their feet, she will give 100 points for this trick! Just watched Li Er and Gao Lao Wu fall out from under the coffin, the scene was too joyful, she forcibly endured her facial expression, secretly, her stomach almost cramped with laughter!
