Chapter 17 The ability to bring disaster to the country and the people
The evening breeze was a little cool, the proprietress closed the windows in Ren Xin's house, the stone looked at the sky, felt that it was a little late, he was inconvenient to stay in Ren Xin's house, so he said goodbye and left, the proprietress was worried about Ren Xin, so she stayed to guard her.
The stone closes the door of the house, the wind blows the leaves and rustles, and the insects hidden among the plants and trees chirp softly, and the sound is so mixed that those who listen in a hurry feel a little irritable, and the stone always feels a little uneasy.
The humid air was a little dull, and the stones looked up at the sky, and the dark clouds blocked the stars and the moon, and it was gloomy and depressing.
The restaurant was closed, and a few guys who had been busy in the front hall yawned and went back to the inner courtyard, and greeted them when they saw the stones. They told Shi that since Ren Xin came back at noon, the Tian family and the Ren family came one after another to find trouble, but fortunately, they came one by one, and there were only a few people for a while, and it was easy to deal with it.
After hearing this, Shi couldn't help frowning, if the Tian Ren family really joined forces to find trouble with Ren Xin, then things would really not be good.
Ren Xin didn't sleep for long, she always felt that the air was a little stuffy in her sleep, she couldn't breathe, slowly opened her eyes, the room was brightly lit, the proprietress fell asleep on the side of the bed, Ren Xin sat up gently, pulled the quilt and was covered by the proprietress, leaned on the side of the bed and looked at her quietly.
The wind and rain are coming, she is inexplicably uneasy in her heart, Chu Qingchen's words are like thorns in her heart, rumors spread like a plague, she just came back and invited a Chu Qingchen Xingshi to ask for guilt, so when the news of her return spread, I don't know how many "plague gods" like Chu Qingchen who thought they were righteous came to her for trouble.
Alas, she wants to cause a lot of trouble to the proprietress and her Yunlai restaurant, but this is not what she is most worried about, what she is most afraid of is the jade lady at home...... If it involves them, that's the last thing she wants.
Time passed quietly, the day dawned early, Ren Xin leaned on the side of the bed, mixed thoughts, chaotic all night.
The proprietress slowly opened her sleepy eyes, just met Ren Xin's clear eyes, she rubbed her sour arm and said to Ren Xin early, simply cleaned up for herself, and then fetched water to freshen up Ren Xin.
After getting acquainted, the door of Ren Xin's house was pushed open suddenly, and she turned back in surprise, Ren Xin saw the people she was most afraid of seeing at this moment, Yu Niang, Ren Qiao, and Ren Ling......
Ren Xin covered the wound on her face with her ears covered, as if she covered it, and Yu Niang and the others didn't know. Ren Ling's eyes were sharp, as early as when Ren Xin turned around, he really saw the slender scratch on her face, Ren Ling didn't think about it, he pulled down Ren Xin's hand and looked at her face, "Sister, will this injury leave a scar?" ”
Yu Niang and Ren Qiao came to Ren Xin's side, looking at her, they couldn't help but feel distressed, since they heard those rumors outside, they have been worried about Ren Xin, guessing that Ren Xin must have suffered something, but they didn't think that this time she was not only blamed, but even hurt her face.
Ren Xin was grabbed by Ren Ling's hand, and the wound that he didn't want to be seen by his parents was so unabashedly exposed in front of their eyes, meeting their eyes, Ren Xin was a little flustered, and hurriedly explained inarticulately, "Where will there be any scars, just a small injury, not in the way, not in the way." ”
Yu Niang and Ren Qiao also wanted to ask what happened, why she was injured, and why there were such rumors outside? Ren Xin was a little hesitant to tell them the truth of the matter, but in fact, he just made them worry in vain.
Faintly it seemed that a noisy voice could be heard coming from the front hall, the quarrel became more and more intense, a guy hurriedly came to him, whispered something in the ear of the proprietress and the proprietress explained that Ren Xin should not come out in the house, and hurriedly closed the door and left.
Ren thought about it and always felt that she couldn't hide here and let others bear everything for her, so she said a few perfunctory words and asked Yu Niang and them not to go out, but she opened the door and quietly followed to the front hall. Ren Xin did not show up directly, but hid in the corner and quietly observed the situation, and at a glance, a group of people from the Tian family, a group of people from the Ren family, and a group of familiar faces.
Speaking of this group of familiar faces, Ren Xin is afraid that she will never forget it in this life, when she crossed over, coaxed her under the firewood stack, and threatened to burn her, wasn't it this group of people?
Ren Xin listened quietly to the noise of the group of people, and gradually heard some doorways: the Tian family headed by Tian Manjin and the Ren family led by Ren Erbo and the group of familiar faces, although they came together to discuss the law, but the purpose was completely different, Tian Manjin wanted people, he wanted Ren Xin. And what Ren Erbo wanted was money, the money that Tian Manjin bought Ren Xin, and Ren Xin "calculated" the compensation that Ren Na wanted to make. And the group of familiar faces kept saying that they wanted to crusade against the broom star and get rid of the demons...... Don't think about it, it was naturally instigated by Ren Erbo.
Shi calmly listened to all the people's statements, he asked Ren Erbo to come up with evidence, and asked Tian Manjin if he wanted to marry Ren Xin, if he had three media and six hires, and if he had personally come to the door to marry Ren Xin's parents.
Ren Erbo said that there was no evidence, and he couldn't produce evidence, and Tian Manjin didn't know what to say, so he only shouted, "I gave Ren Erye three hundred taels of silver, but he sold Ren Xin to me as a concubine!" ”
As soon as Tian Manjin's words came out, everyone present was in an uproar, and the rumors that Ren Na was making Tian Manjin a concubine was a little untenable in the past few days.
When Ren Erye heard this, he looked at Tian Manjin as if he had swallowed a fly, not afraid of a god-like opponent, but afraid of a pig-like teammate...... Tian Manjin's anxious words opened a gap in the situation carefully arranged by Second Master Ren.
Shi smiled coldly, grasped the key to Tian Manjin's words, and fought back, "Young Master Tian, you said that Second Master Ren sold Ren Xin to you as a concubine for three hundred taels, do you have any evidence?" ”
Evidence, the deed of sale that can be used as evidence has long been destroyed by Ren Xin, where can he find it? Shishi's rhetorical question suddenly made Tian Manjin not know how to answer, and Shishi didn't wait for him to speak, "Besides, even if you really gave Ren Erye three hundred taels of silver to buy Ren Xin, but, do you know that Ren Xin has already broken away from the Ren family and is not on the Ren family's genealogy, you buy someone from Ren Erye, what qualifications does he have to sell Ren Xin to you?" Therefore, if you want to ask for an explanation, you should not come to Ren Xin, but should find this Ren Second Master here, because he cheated your money. What's more, after taking your money, he also asked his daughter Ren Na to impersonate it for you, alas, Young Master Tian, what is his intention, does he still need me to explain it to you? ”
"Wow, Second Master Ren, are you plotting for my Tian family's money?" Tian Manjin didn't have any brains, and he was frightened by Shishi's words, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to point the finger at Ren Erye.
Ren Erye didn't care about asking Ren Xin for money for the time being, and hurriedly appeased Tian Manjin and asked him not to listen to the nonsense of the stone. The stone did not give Ren Er Ye time to brainwash Tian Manjin, and directly pointed the finger at Ren Er Ye.
"Second Master Ren, let's talk about the question you just said, since you received three hundred taels of silver from Young Master Tian, it is natural for your daughter to marry Tian Manjin, why do you want to ask Ren Xin for those three hundred taels of silver? Speaking of which, you said that Ren Xin gave the three hundred taels, what evidence do you have? At present, there are so many conflicts between you and Young Master Tian......"
The stone analyzed the statements of Tian Manjin and Ren Erbo respectively, and combined the statements of the two people, there were too many conflicts between the statements of the two sides, and all kinds of conditions were boiled together, and the truth of the matter soon surfaced. From the conversation between the two people, Shi Dan made the whole thing clear, and he heard the guests in the restaurant applaud.
Ren Xin was moved to hear this, and was ready to fight with Ren Erbo, but she didn't expect that the stone, who had always been silent, returned her justice with a sharp mouth and a calm and wise mind, and her heart was hot, she no longer hid, and walked out of the corner, telling the part that the stone did not deduce as she walked, that is, she escaped from the Ren family's firewood house, rolled down the hillside, was surrounded by wolves on the tree, and wandered around life and death.
The fear faced between life and death, she experienced it herself, and said it truly, everyone was shocked to hear it, but they couldn't bear to interrupt her. When she walked past the proprietress and met the proprietress with worried eyes, she shook her head lightly, indicating that she was fine. When she arrived at the stone's side, she looked up at the stone and smiled, and there was a message in her eyes, xiexie!
Xu Fuzi and Mr. Lu, accompanied by Chu Qingchen and Yi Hua, came to Yunlai Restaurant just right, both of them are well-known old men in the local area, and the two of them came together to uphold justice, so that Tian Manjin and Ren Erbo did not dare to let go for a while.
"Master, Grandpa Lu." Ren Xin crossed Chu Qingchen and greeted Mr. Xu and Mr. Lu, Xu Fuzi looked at the hurt eyebrows on Ren Xin's face and frowned, his heart was not a taste, he thought clearly about the relationship between Ren Xin and the Ren family, and he has always been a person who can protect his shortcomings, Ren Xin is half of his granddaughter who was brought up single-handedly, and he can't allow others to hurt her in the slightest. Thinking about it, the eyes that looked at Ren Erbo sharpened a lot.
Mr. Lu and Ren Xin are also close, but he still upholds fairness, impartiality, and will draw conclusions when he sees the evidence, and he doesn't feel a little funny when he sees Xu Fuzi blowing his beard and staring at him, so he made a chair for Xu Fuzi to sit down, "I also believe that Xin'er is wronged, but before the matter is clear, Duan can't be capricious." ”
Ren Xin smiled, made tea for the two old men, and then dealt with the group of familiar faces who came to "eliminate the demon", "I see that a few people here are familiar with the good faces, and I think everyone also remembers me, I don't know if you still remember that since I spoke, the first rain in five years fell in Sanshui Village, Qingfeng Town, and since then, the wind and rain have been smooth, and a few people are really not afraid, today, in addition to me, there will be a few years of drought?" Be careful, don't be fooled by others, attack me easily, maybe, I really have the ability to bring disaster to the country and the people. ”
With a slightly self-deprecating tone, ridiculing the stormy weather, remembering the injustice of the world's superstition to herself, and the people around her who never gave up on her, I don't know what it was like in my heart, I cried inexplicably, the air was dull and humid, and there was no trace of wind, which made Ren Erbo and the others breathless inexplicably.
At the moment when Ren Xin's tears fell to the ground, the heavy rain poured down, just like in the fire of the year, the stupid five-year-old child exclaimed, "Help me!" In general, the sudden heavy rain frightened the superstitious people.
