Chapter 160: Disaster in the Township
After reading the meaning of Liang Yan's words, Zhao Siniang felt that the back molars were painful.
What to do? It's like tearing apart the gentle and harmless smiling face on the other side!
"Old lady......" just don't agree, little rabbit, what do you like!
Before Zhao Siniang could speak rudely, Liang Yan said again: "Open a food shop, rice, flour, grain and oil are indispensable, right?" If we cooperate, you don't have to worry about the procurement of these things. ”
That's too tempting, isn't it? Knowing that this was most likely the bait thrown by Liang Yan, Zhao Siniang couldn't help but bite the bait.
She took a deep breath, took another deep breath, and then swallowed the mouthful of old blood that was about to come out of her heart, and said, "Deal!" ”
Hearing this, Liang Yan, who has always been quite restrained, smiled deeply and said: "A word is a certainty!" ”
It wasn't until Zhao Siniang finished the deal that made her happy and annoyed, and both parties signed in black and white, that Zhao Yongzhong came to pick up the little girl with a smile on his face.
To tell the truth, knowing that there would definitely be no good fruit to eat when she went back to Lao Zhao's house at this time, Zhao Siniang wanted to find an excuse to go home, at least wait until Lizheng Zhao Zhengyi drove the Xiao family out of Zhaojia Village before going back.
Just thinking of the arsenic in Zhao Qiao's hands, Zhao Siniang felt that she couldn't retreat. Although he sued Shen Lan before, would Shen Lan believe it? How much will you believe? She didn't know the bottom of her heart, and she had to go there herself to feel at ease.
When we arrived at Jiangjiatan by boat from Jinghai, it was already dusk, and the village was full of smoke.
Zhao Yongzhong originally planned to go straight to Lao Zhao's house after visiting his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but was stopped by Zhao Siniang on the grounds that it was too late. In the end, the father and daughter agreed. I will stay in Jiangjiatan tonight and go back to Lao Zhao's house early tomorrow morning.
However, Zhao Siniang stopped his father and didn't let him go, but asked Jiang Hua to go to the town to invite Zhao Yongxiao over. After thinking about it, he asked him to find an excuse to call Zhao Erlang over.
At this time, it was dinner time, and the Jiang family had already returned home after a day's work, and even the Yang family living in the Jiang family heard that Zhao Siniang's father and daughter were coming, and they also came to join in the fun. For a while, the Jiang family's hall was full of people.
"It's not easy to live in a foreign country! I still remember this old man, what a good boy who is filial! Old Man Yang looked at the two sets of autumn shirts with dense stitches. Nodding and laughing.
"It fits perfectly! What a sweet boy. Old Man Yang's eldest daughter-in-law, Liao, walked two steps with a new cane and said with a grateful face.
"Such a good material, I still bought it in the city. It costs a lot of money, right? Gee, how good is that? Old Man Yang's eldest grandson, daughter-in-law He Shi, carefully touched the piece of clothing that was given to her, and said with joy on her face.
Yang's face was pale, and he persuaded with a smile: "What is this? This is the heart of the four mothers' family. You can hold it with peace of mind. ”
Let's talk about it. Yang opened a wooden box again, beckoned to Yang Erxi and the sisters, and said with a smile: "This box of silk flowers was specially given to your sisters by your aunt, but it is the best seller in the city, come and take a look." ”
I have to say that Zhao Siniang's family is very thoughtful. This time when she returned to her hometown, her family not only prepared a rich festival for Mr. Jiang and his wife, but even Mr. Yang and other relatives of the Yang family also took care of it. A suitable gift for each of them.
While speaking, Jiang Yue, who was quick with her hands and feet, set the meal ready. Beckoning everyone to take their seats.
In order to entertain Zhao Yongzhong's father and daughter, who rarely came back, the diligent and thrifty Yang family made an exception for Jiang Yue'e to add several dishes of meat and water full of oil and water, and also took out the burning knives that were reluctant to drink on weekdays.
With good wine and good food and good topics, the atmosphere in the hall is particularly hot, and the laughter and laughter are almost uninterrupted.
Just when the whole family was happy, Jiang Hua came back with Zhao Yongxiao's uncle and nephew, followed by Zhang Hequan.
Zhao Siniang knew that the relaxed atmosphere had ended here, and she had to start a heavy topic below.
The hospitable old man Jiang was entertaining Zhao Yongxiao's uncle and nephew and Zhang Hequan to the table, and Zhao Siniang asked abruptly in a low voice: "Dad, do you remember what the little girl of the Yuan family said about how vicious her previous master was?" ”
Zhao Yongzhong was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he replied: "Well, I remembered, it's the Xiao family!" He was killing people and setting fire to his hometown again, and he was bullying people in the border city, and even when he came to our Jiangjiatan, he refused to live in peace, so he beat the child of the Yuan family for no reason, and almost got a good fight. Who are they? ”
Zhao Siniang nodded, and was about to speak, when the old lady Yang on the side suddenly said, "Xiao family? Ever been in a border town? Could it be ...... Is there a prodigal son named Xiao Shouan in his family? ”
Zhao Siniang blinked and hurriedly asked, "It's his house!" Grandpa, do you recognize them? ”
Old lady Yang became excited, and raised her voice and said, "Recognize!" How don't you recognize it? I know them even if they turn to ashes! Hmph, this Xiao family relies on the wealth of the family, but it has harmed the villagers. ”
Yang Jiuping, the eldest grandson of Old Lady Yang, also said indignantly: "There is a family surnamed Mao near our house, and the pillar of his family died in the hands of Xiao Shou'an!" ”
Zhao Siniang said in her heart, this is really someone who sent a pillow just after falling asleep. She was worried that she was just talking about it, and she was afraid that she couldn't make her father feel how vicious the Xiao family was, and she didn't want the Yang family to stand up and testify, which would be more convincing.
So she hurriedly asked the Yang family to talk in detail about how the Xiao family caused trouble in the township.
It is said that the Yang family has settled in the border city for many years, although they have not been able to accumulate any family wealth, but they have relied on hard work to open up more than ten acres of wasteland. Suddenly, one day, the Xiao family said that they wanted to buy a large piece of land, including the Yang family's field. Land is the foundation of farmers, and the Yang family is of course unwilling to sell it casually. Take 10,000 steps back, even if you want to sell it, you have to ask his Xiao family to pay a reasonable price before you can sell it. Although the land in the hands of the Yang family was wasteland many years ago, after years of careful cultivation, it can be regarded as Zhongtian, but the Xiao family is only willing to calculate the price of the field, how can the Yang family agree?
Who knew that at this time, Yang Jiuping's father was seriously ill and urgently needed a large amount of medical expenses. In order to raise money for the eldest son's treatment, the old lady Yang, who loved her son, sold the land to the Xiao family despite the obstruction of other people in the family. Although Yang Jiuping's father died later, the Yang family can be regarded as a blessing in disguise and escaped a catastrophe.
It turned out that because the Xiao family's price was too low, not only the Yang family refused to sell the land, but many nearby families also refused to agree. Rao is the Xiao family's soft and hard work, and in the end, there are still five or six families who grit their teeth. At this moment, the Mao family, the most resolute of those families, Mao Dazhu, the pillar of his family, actually encountered a group of bandits in broad daylight, and when he was rescued, he had only one breath left. Seeing this, Mao's family hurriedly went to the county government to report the case, but the yamen was reluctant to send someone to investigate the case, and it was not until three days later that Mao Dazhu swallowed his breath and then came to the door to take a look.
In fact, Mao Dazhu lasted three days before he passed away, and during this period, when he was conscious, he told the people around him that Xiao Shouan was among the people who beat him. It was not only his family who heard this, but even Yang Jiuping, who went to visit the patient, had heard it with his own ears. However, as soon as this person died, there was no proof of death, and then looking at the reaction of the government, where did everyone not understand? This lawsuit is destined to have no result, and Mao Dazhu can only die unjustly. (To be continued.) )
