Zhao Shu left, followed Ling'er's advice, and walked directly from the small valley between the West Mountain and the North Mountain to Ciwu County in Yi'an Province. It would be very hard to walk Zhaoshu in this way, but the villagers must not have imagined that it was relatively much safer than going to Baihua Town. Aunt Zhang saw the three of them come out, and didn't say much and took them to the foot of the north mountain, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, the sky was a little white. It is estimated that the sky will be bright in half an hour, and no one will speak. Zhao Shu took Aunt Zhang's firewood knife and tiger bone, and ran towards the mountain without looking back. He didn't dare to look back, only he knew how reluctant he was. The sisters rushed home with tears in their eyes, and Ling'er now knew that the tears were so bitter.

In the haze, I heard the noise in the yard, so I had to get up to look, because of the preparation of items and actions last night, I was about to return home (4:00), after all, the body that was less than four years old fell asleep at once. If it weren't for the noise, she would have slept until she knew how long. She hurried towards the courtyard, not caring about any grooming or disappearance.

"We don't know, my brother didn't come back at all." I saw Min'er standing in front of the door, and Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang stood on her left and right. On the opposite left side are Zhao who has half of his head wrapped in a strip of cloth and only one eye is exposed, and Li who is wrapped like a hat with a strip of cloth, and next to her stands Li Da Bai and some people who are watching the excitement, and still can't see the figure of grandpa and second uncle. To the right are the village chief and some of the village's elders and their children, probably because they are afraid that the old man will make a mistake. Looking to the right again, I saw Wang's mourning hall, with the coffin in the middle and a brazier in front. Zhao He was unmoved by the noise in the yard, just burned the paper money one after another, muttering to himself while burning.

"What are you doing here? Today is the day of my mother's burial, as the saying goes, the dead are great, and there is something that can't be said later? Ling'er stood on the steps and didn't go to Min'er. She was still too small to be seen in the crowd, and now everyone could directly see her cross-legged waist and angry eyes. Coupled with her pale face and eyes as red as peaches from crying because she didn't sleep well, it was really a little terrifying.

"When is it your turn to speak, little shriveled calf, which green onion are you?" Zhao knew that this Ling'er was not a good person, but she hadn't forgotten the taste of the basin buttoning her head.

"I don't want to speak, who told you to find fault? Besides, I don't want a kid to be in charge here, isn't it all because of you? Ling'er's mouth is not slow, and there is no obstacle to reasoning with a village woman like Zhao, but if Zhao swears, she will not be a person at all. When Min'er and the three of them saw her come out, they all went to the steps, and Min'er wanted to cheer for Ling'er. It's okay to speak, but Min'er, who can't quarrel at all, is happier when she sees Ling'er than when she sees anything. Zhang Qiang and his wife were afraid that those people would hurt the two children, and although the people next to them came to help, they were only out of kindness, and the relationship with the Zhao He family was not close, plus this was the grandmother of the family, so they were naturally not very good at meddling in other people's housework.

"If it weren't for you, would my mother be lying there? If it weren't for you, would my dad be like that? I also want to have an adult in the family to call the shots, but I have to be able to do it. Grandpa the village chief, I don't know what you're going to do, I only know that my mother is buried today, and my father is stupid and doesn't know when he will understand. I keep in mind those who came to help, and I will repay them in the future, so if you are not here to help, go back quickly, don't delay my mother's time. Ling'er didn't wait for others to answer, and continued to speak. If she can't catch the opportunity, then the Zhao family will play tricks, and if that happens, she won't be able to fix it.

"It's useless to fix it, what if you don't say anything else now, just say that Zhao Shu ran away?" Li Dabai looked at Zhao's weak appearance and knew that she couldn't do anything, this old thing couldn't be pointed to, so he didn't fool her if he knew it. is really blind to the bag of bad cakes, this old lady is a master in the king's nest on the kang, that is, the charter to treat her cowardly masters.

"He ran away? Running away? Isn't it at the village chief's grandfather's house? Ling'er pretended to have a surprised expression, looking at the village chief's dark expression, he knew that his mood at the moment must not be where the sun was going.

"In the morning, I found out that someone had let him go." The village chief didn't tell the truth, and when he got up in the morning and found that Zhao Shu had run away, he instinctively thought that his daughter-in-law did it, but when he looked at the situation in the yard again, it couldn't be that his daughter-in-law did it. However, it is estimated that it is inseparable from the Zhao family, otherwise who would have bothered so much effort to come to his house to arrest people? So when Li Dabai and others were making trouble to ask for someone here, he didn't stop it, but called the old people in the village to come over, planning to preside over the overall situation at a critical time.

"Huh? Someone put it? At first glance, it can't be that someone wants to lynch my brother, right? Of course Ling'er won't let them have a good time, and she has already figured out how to confront them. Obviously, Li Dabai didn't expect Ling'er to be so difficult, and he was very anxious, he didn't care if Zhao Shu ran or not, he cared about the interests of his daughter.

"Village chief, this matter can't be let go of her like this, no matter who let it go, their family didn't run away anyway." Li Dabai is also a smart person and knows how to grasp the key points. But Ling'er wouldn't admit it, and they had no evidence anyway.

"Grandpa Li, you are an elder, this elder can't talk nonsense. Who saw my brother who was put away by our family? Everyone is watching, who can go to my family's situation? It is said that to catch a thief is to catch dirty, and you say that we did it without evidence, and we don't admit it. Zhang Qiang and his wife also said loudly:

"Yes, I don't. The family is about to disperse, and people with a conscience can't come and add another stick. The two of us can't see the people in our own village bullying these two hard-working children, bullying them is bullying us. Zhang Qiang stood on the steps and said firmly. Everyone present was shocked by him, and even Li Dabai, who came to find fault with him, couldn't help but shrink his neck.

"Grandpa the village chief, my brother is not seen at your house, do you have to give an explanation to my family. My brother made a mistake, but it's not a capital crime. What's the matter with no one alive and no corpse alive now? Ling'er saw that the village chief just frowned and didn't say anything, so he had to put pressure on him, anyway, he couldn't get out of this matter. Seeing that the hour is coming, it will be a mistake to dwell on it any longer.

"Ling'er, aren't you still investigating now, don't worry, my old man will definitely give you an explanation." The village chief is now having a headache, and it is really not easy for him to be the village chief. Originally, he was worried about how to deal with Zhao Shu, but now he has to worry about how to find Zhao Shu, and he doesn't know if Zhao Shu's kid is fighting with him. Now I can only make peace with the mud and cover things up. In fact, the village chief also knew in his heart that since Zhao Shu ran away, he would not come back, and this matter would be over. Although there are records in the town, it is not a major matter of committing a traitor, and no one cares about it.

"Village chief, why are you giving her an explanation? Zhao Shu was originally a sinner, if he didn't run, why would he have to peel off the skin, right? Now that he's gone, he's blessed, and this can't just be done. I won't say anything else, but my daughter's face is broken. This is a big deal, and if it is not rectified, it will change your life. This Zhao He family must give us an explanation, or we won't leave today, and whoever wants to go over will put us down. Li Dabai knew the village chief's thoughts by looking at the village chief's expression, so he quickly blocked the village chief's following words, he came today when he found the time for Wang's burial.

"So what do you say?" Ling'er can see that this Li Dabai is here to slander people, and she also understands in her heart that this matter has to be solved. It seems that they have planned it, so it is better to let them say it and listen to it, as long as it is not too much, and agree to it.

"What to do? What else can I do? My daughter's face is not getting better, and it will be difficult for you to treat it. In this way, my daughter will suffer a loss, and you can give twenty taels of silver. Li Dabai saw that Ling'er was so good, and he was relieved, and the lion opened his mouth to say what he wanted. Completely ignoring the crowd whose jaws dropped to the ground, he was proud there.

"Our family doesn't have a penny, it's just the money for my mother's funeral, or the money borrowed from the town. Where are you going to let us go up twenty taels? Ling'er was really angry when she heard it, not to mention that she didn't have twenty taels in her hand now, even if she did, it would be impossible to give it to him, if she gave it, the trouble would be even greater. Min'er counted the family's silver in her heart, gave Zhao Shu one hundred and ten taels, bought a coffin or something for seventeen taels, asked everyone to help add food or something for almost two taels, and invited Mr. Yin Yang for five taels, and now there are sixteen taels of silver left. Her mind was simple, she only thought about taking the money, and she didn't think that if they took out twenty taels of silver at once, then the people in the village would definitely ask them where the money came from, and then the forest frog oil would have nothing to do with them at all.

"So what do you say? You can't just leave it at that, right? In fact, Li Dabai also knew that they couldn't take it out, this was just his little abacus, first to be higher, and then the real plan.

"Grandpa Li, if you have something to say, just say it, no matter if my brother is at fault first. In order for my mother to catch up with the time, as long as we can do it, we will definitely agree. Ling'er was annoyed when she looked at Li Dabai's rolling eyes, this kind of person was still too early.

"Cheng, it's a refreshing one, then we want your house and land, will you give it?" In fact, Li Dabai also knows that Zhao He is nothing, but this house and land are all good. My daughter's family has two sons, and they will not have a house in the future, even if the two of them make money, they will not be able to earn such a good house. Everyone present took a deep breath, what kind of thing is this, this is fatal. He asked for someone's house and land, these two children are a fool? The village chief was also so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and was about to open his mouth to scold him, but he heard Ling'er say:

"Yes, but I have two conditions, yes, let's go immediately. It shouldn't be that our family is all dying here, and no one wants to take advantage of it. Ling'er is also angry to the peak now, if she didn't have the previous memories, these people would just force them to death, but fortunately, she doesn't care about these houses and land, anyway, she can earn it back. But you can't cheapen them in vain and make them think she is a bully.

"What conditions?" This answer was Zhao's, and she saw that Ling'er had agreed to come to her senses all of a sudden. You must know that her family's house was still built when she got married, and it is very old and there are not many rooms. It's okay to live now, but it won't be enough if the grandson gets married in the future. But this big house is different, although it has been built for a few years, but it is all stone, and it is strong. Ling'er looked at Zhao's look of being obsessed with money, and she strengthened her determination even more.
