The mother-in-law nodded solemnly and found a table nearby to sit down, and motioned for Yuequan to sit together, "Boss two bowls of herbal tea"

"Okay, wait a minute"

At the same table was a simple-looking and strong man, "Little brother, where is this going?" ”

The strong man smiled and touched his head, "Auntie, this year's harvest is good, I plan to take some potatoes to sell." ”

Mother-in-law likes honest dealers, she nods her head and smiles.

"Scholar, is this going to Beijing to take the exam?"

"Yes, my mother, the student is polite." The scholar has many rules, and when he speaks, he bows and salutes, which provokes his mother-in-law to quickly stand up and salute back.

Knowing each other, they began to talk, and during the conversation, the fifty-year-old proprietress took a long pot to add tea to everyone and asked curiously, "Big sister, this girl is your daughter?" ”

The mother-in-law nodded proudly and said, "Not a girl is better than a girl, my aunt, I ordered Bo to drive the old man to the west in the early years, leaving our orphans and widows helpless, and waiting for the children to become adults, I thought that good days were coming, but the drought lasted for three years, the dealer had a poor harvest, and there was no food to eat, how could there be spare grain to pay taxes!" My son couldn't learn how to hunt in the mountains, and died in the mouth of a tiger."

Saying that the mother-in-law secretly wept, although half of the sentence was a lie, but half of the sentence was true, the mother-in-law involuntarily recalled the hard days before, and was grief-stricken.

Who is not suffering, these words said the sore spot of everyone, everyone felt the same sound, all of them panicked and comforted their mother-in-law not to cry, Yuequan also secretly wiped her tears, hugged her mother-in-law and said, "Mother-in-law, it's okay, good days will come." ”

The mother-in-law gradually put away her tears and nodded, "It will come, it will come, it's good to have you"

"Look at my memory, I forgot to introduce it to you, this is my daughter-in-law, Shi'er's father and my old man are friends, my son and Shi'er are married, although my son is gone, Shi'er does not abandon my poverty, insists on marrying the ghost"

The simple people respected the chaste martyr the most, and the image of Yuequan suddenly became noble, which made Yuequan feel empty, blushing, bowing his head, and looking like an ancient standard daughter-in-law.

Gentle, kind, and filial women who don't love, even the old man next door touched his long beard and nodded secretly.

"Boom"

A carriage stopped abruptly at the gate of the tea house, and a couple with ugly faces jumped out of the car, they didn't say a word and destroyed them everywhere with thick wooden sticks, searched things everywhere, and even didn't let go of the potato sacks, and fell down, and when they found the Yuequan ox cart, Yuequan's eyes flashed, and suddenly shouted, "Don't smash our jars, don't rob our things." ”

It's a pity that it's late, the only relatively complete earthen pot in Yuequan has been smashed and broken, it is difficult to find Yuequan, it is used for water, looking at the earthen pot on the ground, Yuequan has an urge to cry.

Although Yuequan can't cry, but the mother-in-law is different, she sees this car of goods as more important than her own life, and instantly the mother-in-law sliding her butt to the ground, opening her mouth wide and howling and crying, "Don't live, don't live, Heping Town ceded to the Tatar bandits, our mother and mother had to move their families to relatives, relatives don't allow me, we can only beg everywhere, find a place to live, now this bit of belongings has been robbed and smashed, let us live!" Wow wow......"

The listener was sad and the hearer wept, and the people who had long been dissatisfied all clenched their fists and rolled up their sleeves, roaring angrily, all the dissatisfaction was poured out, grandma, don't think that widows are easy to bully, everyone has the word justice in their hearts, don't take us as fools, you still want to be arrogant.

Men and women, young and old, picked up the tools they thought were suitable, took down the couple in three or two, tied them like zongzi, and let them threaten and curse with their mouths.

"Friends, stop first, can you listen to my old man"

Everyone put down their tools and stood aside, even the three-year-old doll threw a stone at them, and then obediently hid behind the adults, making way for a way, and the majestic and kind old man was helped out of the crowd by a strong man, he chopped twice and carved a ruyi-shaped crutch, touched his white beard, and his face was full of kindness.

"Where are you husband and wife?"

Finally, someone came out to take charge, and the husband and wife seemed to have caught life-saving grass, and hurriedly stammered, "Our husband and wife are from Xuzhou." ”

"What are you doing here?"

"It was the loss of a seven-year-old girl on the way to relatives that disturbed everyone." Saying that, the two hurriedly pretended to cry

"Phew" I don't know who spat on it, really when they are three-year-olds who don't understand whether they are old children, and the lost girl is looking for it like this? Is the earthen pot that big enough to hold people? Even a newborn baby can't fit it. And the mother-in-law's ox cart is that big, and all the items are clear at a glance, how can it be loaded with a seven-year-old girl?

Everyone doesn't believe it, not to mention the old man with wisdom, and now he has to deceive people at this time, the old man is angry and rushes to the crown, chops the cane twice, and shouts, "Nonsense, don't recruit from the truth." ”

This is the truth, the dumb people can't say it if they eat Coptis chinensis, who made them immoral, they didn't want to vent to the baby, but unfortunately they vented their mistakes and provoked the anger of the public, Yuequan shook his head secretly.

The two of them didn't know how to move, and finally three officials came, the old man took out a piece of copper and iron from his cuffs, and the officials saw that they hurriedly bowed and greeted, and then were stopped by the strong man, so everyone didn't know the identity of the old man, in short, it should be a person with an identity, I don't know why Yuequan felt that he had seen the old man, but he couldn't think of it.

The old man knew that his identity was exposed, and it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and in the eyes of everyone worshipped, the strong man helped him get into a carriage that came out of the woods, and the old man walked to Yuequan's side before getting on the car, and said with a smile, "Little girl, take good care of that baby." ”

Suddenly, Yuequan was stunned, his eyes widened, his mouth trembled, and he wondered in horror, how did he know? If there is really malice, he should have died hundreds of times, fortunately touching his chest, Yuequan took a deep breath and looked at the old man's carriage disappearing on the official road.

"Sir?"

"Sanzi, I know what you want to say."

"You are still young, the girl and her mother-in-law are clear-eyed, not scheming people, the spirit of the boy under the car is acceptable, is willing to hide, listening to the breathing, especially when the couple searched the car, the breath is tight and deep afraid of detection...... That couple is not a good type, three sons, don't look at the surface, my mother-in-law is a hard-working person, but the story is too fake, there are too many loopholes, but the starting point is good......"

The more the strong man listens to his mouth, his eyes widen, and his mouth can be stuffed into a goose egg, and he is really inexperienced from the analysis of the old man.
