Chapter 13 Go to the Imperial Capital Again
"Bury it. Don't erect a monument. One last glance at Du Sanniang lying in the coffin, Yue Xi came out of the house.
Ye Miancheng nodded, and beckoned to a few strong men who had been waiting outside the door, and those few people stood sideways by the wall until Yue Xi walked away before he entered the room tremblingly.
"My mother!" One of the men entered the house and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve: "I have carried the longevity for half a lifetime, even if I really see a ghost, I won't be afraid, but the momentum of the afterlife just now is too scary!" ”
"Who's to say it isn't!" The other men nodded hurriedly and replied: "It's the same as a knife in the past, if you get it, you can lose your life......"
……
Yue Xi left the hut that accompanied Du Sanniang all night with a bad spirit, she didn't go far, she went straight to Ye Qiu's house, fell on the bed without even taking off her shoes, and fell asleep with one of her arms on her pillow.
Du Sanniang is gone, she owes her a life.
When grief is at its extreme, it doesn't matter if it's sad.
In Yue Xi's heart, her death is more unacceptable to her than her own death, and it is fair to kill people to pay off debts and pay back.
She needs her spirit and body to support herself and seek justice for the departure of this life!
At noon, Yue Xi heard movement in the yard and knew that someone had entered the house, but she didn't want to move, so she lay quietly for a while and fell asleep again.
When he woke up again, Yue Xi heard Ye Qiu whispering to Ye Miancheng at the door: "Why don't I go in and call the owner to eat something?" I've slept all day and haven't drunk a sip of water, so how can it be ......"
Yue Xi got up, sat on the edge of the bed and lost his mind, not understanding where he was sleeping for a while.
After looking around at the unfamiliar furnishings in the room, she sighed lightly: "Fat sister, remember what my brother told you, don't be in a hurry to be reincarnated." If you are bored, come and talk to me, my brother is not afraid of ghosts......"
Bending down to the ground, I wanted to put on my shoes, but I found that the shoes were on my feet. Yue Xi clapped his hands heavily on his legs, got up and opened the door and walked out: "What do you two eat at night?" Add a pair of chopsticks to Lao Tzu! ”
There was a table and three chairs in the backyard, and it was obvious that the two surnamed Ye had already reserved her place, Yue Xi raised her hand and touched her hair, bent down to look at the dining table, there was wine, meat, and more than a dozen multigrain steamed buns, she said to Ye Qiu: "It's like a life, and the craftsmanship is good." ”
Ye Qiu was pouring soup into a small bowl, and he couldn't help blushing when he heard her words, and he stumbled and said, "No...... I didn't do it...... I bought it from the town. ”
"Master's cooking is also delicious." Ye Miancheng washed his hands, and a flick of his two hands on both sides of his body was finished.
He pulled a chair and made a gesture of invitation to Yue Xi, and then sat down himself: "There are people cooking in the yamen, and the two of us will eat together on the stove." It's my son-in-law here today, and the master brought these foods when he came back from the shop. ”
Yue Xi sat down, and was not polite to them, he took chopsticks and sandwiched the thick and large braised pork, broke a steamed bun, sandwiched the meat in the steamed bun and ate it with a big gulp.
Ye Miancheng picked up the wine jar and was about to fill the wine cup in front of her, Yue Xi immediately covered the wine cup with his hand and said, "I can't drink, you two are free, don't be polite to me." ”
"If the owner doesn't drink it, don't drink it!" Ye Qiu reached out and snatched the wine jar from Ye Miancheng's hand, and stuffed a steamed bun for him: "I don't like to smell this smell either." ”
"Cheng, if you say you don't drink, you won't drink." Zheng Mian Cheng smiled at Ye Qiu with a big grin, and also followed Yue Xi's example and sandwiched a chopstick braised pork in the steamed bun, opened his mouth and took a bite, half of the steamed bun was gone......
The prefectural magistrate's mouth was so stuffed that there was no place for his tongue to move. Yue Xi watched him puff out his cheeks like a donkey, chewing and chewing for a long time, and finally swallowed the mouthful of food, and instantly felt that he was full.
After eating the steamed buns in his hand and drinking a bowl of spinach soup, Yue Xi put down the dishes and chopsticks, sat on the side and waited silently for the two to eat and drink.
She didn't eat it, and Ye Qiu, as the owner, also put the dishes and chopsticks, and went into the house to bring out a pot of freshly brewed strong tea, and only then did she want to pour it for Yue Xi, but the teapot had already been lifted by Yue Xi: "It's not an outsider, I'll come by myself." ”
Ye Miancheng has been busy all day, and now he is hungry enough, and if he doesn't drink a little wine, he will eat more. After eating four steamed buns and half a plate of meat in one go, he didn't drink the soup, but directly picked up a cup of hot tea and poured it into his mouth.
The tea that fell into his stomach, Ye Miancheng put down the teacup, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve cage and wiped his mouth and hands decently, and then saw a little vegetable soup falling on the front hem of the robe, he wiped the oil stains a few times hard, and finally caught a glimpse of some dust on his boots, he pinched the corner of the handkerchief and smoked it a few times on the upper of the shoe, and only when he saw that the dust was dusted off, he folded the handkerchief and stuffed it into the sleeve cage.
Yue Xi watched him with an expressionless face as he went about his work, while Ye Qiu had already seen his style and was no longer surprised.
"Drink tea!" After picking himself up neatly, Ye Xianling, as the master, raised his hand very enthusiastically to pour another cup of tea for Yue Xi: "This tea is good, it is the previous team leader who honors me, Ye Qiu has been collecting it, that is, you are the son-in-law, he is willing to take it out." ”
Yue Xi snatched the teapot one step ahead of him, and she really didn't like Lord Ye's fake and clean style.
He poured another cup of tea, and Yue Xi took a small sip before saying softly: "Buried?" ”
"Hmm." The smile on Ye Miancheng's face was gone, and he nodded: "It's too hot now, and I can't stop the spirit, I buried it according to what Gongzi said, and didn't erect a monument." ”
"Hmm." Yue Xi lowered his head, sniffed the fragrance of tea in the teacup he was holding in his hand, and then said, "Tell me about the events of that day, the finer the better." ”
Ye Miancheng raised his eyes and gave Ye Qiu a look, Ye Qiu understood, and immediately got up and closed the door to the front and locked it.
"Four or five days ago......" Ye Miancheng opened his mouth.

......" Ye Miancheng opened his mouth.
"What day the hell?" Yue Xi directly interrupted him.
"It's been six days since the fifth day of the first month." Seeing that Ye Miancheng was stupid when he was asked, Ye Qiu said: "That day was when our Taiping Bureau paid the salary, and the Du family's sister didn't receive it, so I was most impressed." ”
Yue Xi nodded and stopped talking.
"The Du family's sister arrived at the county government after dark." Ye Miancheng continued.
"When I saw her, she could still speak, and begged me to arrange a place for her, saying that her father and mother were old, and she was afraid that her appearance would scare them."
"I asked the doctor to come over, but the doctor only said that the person was burned like that and there was no help."
"Later, the sister of the Du family begged me to let her wait for death in prison, she said......" Ye Miancheng glanced at Yue Xi as he spoke: "She said, it's time for the driver to come......"
Yue Xi's face hung even lower, Ye Miancheng couldn't see the expression on her face, so he could only continue: "The injury on the Du family's sister is too serious, there is no good place, she hurts...... For the first two days, she lay alone in the room and kept crying out in pain...... I asked the doctor to prescribe some pain medicine for her, but it didn't work. ”
Ye Miancheng's eyes turned red as he spoke, and he sniffed his nose before continuing: "She said, if she dies like that, let me find a piece of land and dig a pit and bury her casually, don't tell her father, but she said that if she dies first, she must tell you......"
"Lord Ye, if I die, you must tell the driver of the car, I have known him for so long, I will look at him well, and he will never forget me again......" This is what Du Sanniang said to Ye Miancheng in pain in a wail.
"I have no children and no daughters, even if I die, no one will go to worship, and in the future, a lonely grave will be a wild ghost, you and the driver said, let him remember to burn a few pieces of paper for me when he is free, in this life, I am a hard worker, I don't want to be so tired when I am a ghost, let him burn some paper for me every year......"
"I made a note of it." Yue Xi slowly raised his head, his eyes were red again, and he looked scary.
"First seven, you two help me burn some paper money for her every day and send it over, burn more, let her spend the money wherever she wants, don't save it."
"It is said that there is a netherworld, but no one in the world has seen a ghost, do you say that there is a netherworld?" Ye Miancheng asked with a frown.
"Yes." Yue Xi suddenly grinned and looked at the gloomy one: "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, Lao Tzu will send that evil ghost to hell!" ”
As she spoke, she got up, bent down and saluted Ye Miancheng: "Sanniang's matter is thanks to adults, Yue is very grateful!" ”
Ye Miancheng couldn't be clearer about Yue Xi's identity.
Under such circumstances, he dared to take in Du Sanniang, who was almost burned to death by Miss Han Er, which was a big risk.
Yue Xi's salute is not too much.
And Ye Miancheng immediately got up and stretched out his hand to help her up: "The Du family's sister has always treated you as a man, and I treat you like this." ”
"Gongzi Yue still has to be good for himself in the future, after all, so many people rely on you. As for me, this official was retained by the top for another year, saying that I had a good performance in governing the local government...... Hey! ”
Ye Miancheng smiled crookedly, and said self-deprecatingly: "Actually, I know why, Cixian is not a good place now, no one dares to come......"
"At the end of the one-year period, I think I should be the first official, if you and my brother don't die, let's do a deal again, don't get promoted, it's always okay to get rich, right? Not to mention that the Du family girl wants to be a rich ghost, I also want to be a rich person...... I'll rely on you for this, so ......"
Ye Miancheng stared at Yue Xi's eyes and said in a deep voice: "You have to be good, be cautious in everything!" ”
"I see." Yue Xi nodded slightly.
……
When he was fast, Yue Xi put on a donkey cart and insisted on leaving: "I've slept all day, and now I definitely can't sleep if I go to sleep again, so it's better to go to the imperial capital to have a look, and I just happened to go to the shop in Xixiang Village to take a look." ”
Ye Miancheng and Ye Qiu couldn't stop her, so they had to open the door of the backyard and send her out.
Before going out, Ye Miancheng approached Yue Xi and whispered, "After the palace caught fire, His Majesty Xià personally came. The head of the team in my yamen said that His Majesty had searched all over the palace, and he lost his temper and ordered someone to burn a few coffins. ”
Yue Xi didn't react after hearing this, went out and got on the donkey cart sideways, and said to the two surnamed Ye who were sent out: "Remember to burn more paper for my fat sister......"
