8. Chapter 8 Arson
The neighbors of the whole street woke up, and when they saw the back door of He's house knocked open, they all looked and listened.
"Woooooooooooo I didn't seduce you! I'm asking Brother Zhang to do things! I gave him broken silver! I don't believe you ask him! He Xiu's nose and face were swollen from An's beating, and she struggled to get up from the ground, relying on her fat body, she overturned the two mothers-in-law who were pressing her, and stumbled to Aunt Du's side.
"What are you doing with the silver?! You brainless stinky girl! No wonder you spend money every month! It turns out that they have fattened others! When Aunt Du heard He Xiu's words, she almost didn't take her back on her breath, and poked He Xiu's temples with her fingertips, angry and hateful.
"Mother, it's not because the young master-daughter wants to know about the young master, so it's-" The matter has come to this, and He Xiu doesn't dare to hide it, it is better to bribe Zhang Dachuan with silver than to let outsiders misunderstand her adultery.
When Aunt Du heard He Xiu's words, her eyes rolled, and she immediately sat on the ground, patting her feet and crying,
"What kind of world is this? It's not wrong for my daughter to admire the young master, but some dog slaves can't succeed in asking for bribes and want to belittle my daughter! This is going to ruin my daughter's reputation! I'm the one who should report to the police! ”
Aunt Du reversed black and white, and An's jumped to her feet, and An jumped over with a snort, fighting with Aunt Du.
"You're still shouting injustice! You're still shouting injustice! Who is blind will despise your daughter! It's obviously your old girl upside down! Look at me if I don't tear your stinky mouth today! ”
An's scolded and scolded and scuffled with Aunt Du, He Xiu wanted to help his mother, but he was sandwiched by two mothers-in-law, one left and one right, and the movement in the yard became bigger and bigger, and even the county government was alarmed. After all, one side is the He family, who has some prestige in the county, and the other side involves the richest man in the county, and when the sleepy-eyed county official arrived with others, Aunt Du and He Xiu had been beaten beyond recognition, and Aunt Du's face was also scratched several times.
"This--alas, send someone to the city immediately to find Master He back! We, in Baishan County, have always had simple customs and a decent style, how can we tolerate such filthy things? Just go! Don't delay! ”
When Linghu Manyue heard the words of the county magistrate, he hooked the corners of his lips and slept satisfactorily wrapped in the quilt.
――
The county lord sent someone to invite the lord, and it took three days to come and go. In the past three days, Aunt Du and He Xiu have been thinking hard about countermeasures, thinking about how to explain to Master He when they come back, so they can't take care of the full moon, and they don't dare to make any more noise at this juncture.
In the past three days of the full moon, she cooked food on time and served them every day, washed and dried her clothes, and cleaned the yard inside and out.
In the evening, the full moon was cooking in the kitchen, and just now, the county magistrate came to say that Master He had arrived at the county office and was rushing to this side.
The full moon has long been planned.
After cutting the vegetables, he lit a fire, grabbed a handful of straw and sprinkled it on the ground. The spark of straw ignited the sawdust and broken wood branches scattered on the ground, and seeing that the flames were getting bigger and bigger, the full moon wiped a handful of black ash on the edge of the pot and wiped it on his face, grabbed a handful of firewood in his hand, and turned and ran out of the kitchen.
A white and translucent little face was smeared with dirty pot ash, but the ink eyes seemed more distinct.
Seeing that the fire in the kitchen was getting bigger and bigger, it had burned to the window lattices and door frames, and the full moon just hid in the dark and watched quietly, and the raging flames jumped fiercely, reflecting her eyes.
