Now, the new widow of the old Xie family, holding a quaint black wooden box in his arms, sits quietly and scolds Huai, a metaphor for irony. The older generation, especially those who have been involved in it, are not afraid.

"Grandma, what are you holding in your arms?" Xie Yinan asked curiously.

This box has been under grandma's wardrobe for a long time, and Xie Yinan has noticed her a long time ago, but grandma only said that it was the ancestor's thing, and told Xie Yinan not to touch it, but he didn't dare to say more.

Now on this occasion, grandma has brought out the things of the ancestors, and Xie Yinan naturally knows that it has its function. Relying on his own villain, no, he innocently asked everyone if it was no.

"This," as soon as grandma's words came out, everyone stopped breathing, very good, it seems that there is really a lot of writing.

"Aunt Ying, you shouldn't be a stranger." Grandma's words changed sharply and asked about Xie Yinan's mother.

"Yes, this is the only dowry I brought to the Xie family back then." As soon as Xie Yinan's mother finished speaking, Xie Yinan obviously felt that the breath of the people present was relaxed, except for his grandmother and a few uncles.

"Aunt Ying, do you know, why did the old lady of the Chen family give your dowry to the Xie family for safekeeping?" Grandma asked again unhurriedly.

"My father only said that his grandfather confessed, and I don't know why!" Xie Yinan's mother told the truth.

When Village Chief Xie heard this, he felt ashamed and confident, and then thought of the things that his father burned in front of him, and laughed at his cowardice just now, so he immediately interrupted Grandma Xie's words. He said: "Aunt Xie, you can go home and stop your housework, and now everyone is gathered together, not to listen to your chatter, everyone is to discuss the matter of repairing the ancestral hall." ”

"Why is Village Chief Xie so anxious, is he afraid that I will open this box and make the contents good for the villagers to circulate?"

Mrs. Xie raised her eyebrows, and the cold air was awe-inspiring.

Village Chief Xie was shocked, but he refused to give in, he forced himself to hold on and said, "Nonsense. Your old Xie family's stuff. What does it have to do with me? ”

"Isn't it off?" Grandma's fingers flicked lightly, and the black wooden box snapped open, revealing two letters.

"It's grandpa's handwriting!"

"Government documents?"

The eldest uncle and the younger uncle said in unison, and everyone looked at the two letters in grandma's hand without guidance. People who knew the inside story, such as Village Chief Xie, had turned pale. The people who participated in the tragedy of the Xie family that year also trembled with their hands and feet. People who have been younger for a lifetime have puzzled expressions.

Xie Yinan's grandmother looked at Village Chief Xie's miserable white face. Exposed for so many years. The most comfortable smile.

"Don't be pretentious, what do you mean by taking two letters out of the clan affairs we are talking about now?" Xie Bawang is a bastard. As soon as he felt the embarrassment of Village Chief Xie, he still didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

"Does he, Uncle Xie, automatically ask for his life, want to see it for himself, and then read it to the villagers?"

Others are afraid of Xie Bawang, but grandma who has experienced many major things in the world is not afraid.

"Just read it, what a thing, I want to scare people if I break the letter with two of you!"

Xie Bawang snatched the letter in his hand, opened it without saying a word, looked at it carefully, and then broke out in a cold sweat. His hand holding the letter trembled like those timid villagers. Xie Bawang seemed to be in disbelief, and then opened another letter and read it quickly, and then gritted his teeth and asked Village Chief Xie: "What is said above is true?" ”

"No, it's not,"

"I haven't said anything yet, the village chief is in a hurry to refute, it seems that what is said above is not far from ten." Xie Bawang changed his previous strong style, glared at the village chief Xie, then turned around and held the two letters high above his head, bowed deeply to Xie Yinan's grandmother respectfully, and then said to Xie Yinan's grandmother: "Aunt Xie, although I dominate the old village and committed a lot of ridiculous things when I was young, but this matter is that my father is sorry for your old Xie family, I am willing to make amends to you on behalf of my father, and please raise your noble hand and let my father live." ”

Everyone was puzzled by Xie Bawang's actions, and Xie Yinan was the same.

"Leave you alive?" Grandma's eyes swept over the people sitting around one by one, and she snorted coldly and said, "I let you go, have you ever let us orphans and widows go." I didn't want to make it public, but you deceived people so much that my old woman had to take out what she was going to bring into the coffin. Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Chen, you two are the oldest people in the entire Lao Au Village, I respect you for your old age and public affairs, these two letters will be handed over to you, read them to the villagers, and see what this group of wolf ambitions have done to the dozen or so people of my old Xie family! ”

Grandma Xie handed the letter to Xie Yinan, Xie Yinan didn't dare to say more, and immediately came to Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Chen with the letter and presented the letter.

The two Grand Dukes both put ytterbium on the bridge of their noses, and then took the letter and looked at it.

After reading the letter, the two of them looked at themselves, and sighed in their hearts, what a sin!

"Xie family, do you really want to read it?" Mrs. Xie had no face to speak, but Mrs. Chen opened his mouth to ask.

"Nian, my old Xie family has endured it for a long time, and today I have to give my Xie family justice no matter what, and comfort the more than a dozen ancestors of the Xie family in the spirit of heaven!"

Xie Taigong sighed again, and slowly read the letter under the curiosity, nervousness, and fear of everyone. Mrs. Xie first read a long letter written by the old lady of the Chen family, which explained in detail the life of Mrs. Xie, the strength he contributed to the country and the events that happened in the Xie family after he returned from the capital. In addition, there are the truths he found out later, including the number of people who were killed, the Xie family's property that was forcibly divided, and the list of people involved in the crime.

Another letter is a text jiàn that the old lady of the Chen family personally went to the capital to get, and the red-headed text jiàn proves the Xie family's contribution, innocence and the number of family property. Later, there was even a list of the tens of thousands of gold that the old lady of the Xie family had contributed.

The more they heard it, the more frightened they became, and when the familiar names were linked to their own families, whether that person was alive or not, as the descendants of these criminals, they all blushed with shame, and longed for a crack in the earth to come out on the spot, so that they could get in and hide. Helplessly, the land of the Zhang family is too well repaired, it is a small garden, except for the grass is paved with cobblestones, it is impossible to realize the desire of a dry person to wait for the drill seams, so they have to stand there with a red face one by one, to meet the terrifying sight.

Xie Yinan also became more and more chilled the more he listened, who said that the old farmer was simple, what happened back then, what happened now, which thing was not done by these so-called simple people.

She wondered if there were any people in the entire Laoao Village who were either like her foreign family and thriving, or there were those who couldn't survive the famine, and it was definitely impossible for there to be only so many people left in the family. But it turns out that the root is buried here? (To be continued.) )
