Chapter Twenty-Six: A Fool's Mistake

Song Zheng walked quickly through the woods and came to the foot of the mountain. Seeing the fire cooking in the grass shed in front of Song Yu's house, he hurriedly ran over. shouted: "Third uncle." Song Yu looked back and saw that Song Zheng's clothes had been torn in several places, and there were several blood marks on his face, and he was standing there panting. Song Yu was taken aback, quickly stood up, and asked, "Zheng'er, what's wrong?" What's going on? ”

Song Zheng said: "Third uncle, you let me go to the house to hide for a while." Song Yu was stunned, and hurriedly led Song Zheng into the house, and moved a stool for Song Zheng to sit down. Without waiting for Song Yu to speak again, Song Zheng asked, "Third uncle, who went up the mountain here this morning?" Song Yu said: "No one, I got up a little late today, and I didn't even see when you went up the mountain." ”

Song Zheng let out an "oh" and lowered his head to think, he usually got up early enough, and the other party must have gone up the mountain when it was dawn, and even ambushed him last night. Although that place is hidden, during the busy farming season, the villagers all get up very early, and they have encountered those who go to the fields, pick up dung, and go up the mountain to chop firewood, and their whereabouts are certainly not a secret. But how can the other party find the big stone for his own boxing? In addition, when I chose the place to practice boxing on that big rock, I also climbed to the top of the cliff to see it, and there was no stone that could roll down naturally, and the other party must have moved the stone from somewhere else and waited for me. Who wants their own life, is it money and wealth?

Money and wealth? Song Zheng suddenly remembered that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiaolian fooled around with a guy named Zheng Feng, that Zheng Feng, didn't he say that Qian Youcai promised him five taels of silver and let him do one thing? This thing must be cleaned up. As for the place where he practiced boxing, he once revealed it when he answered the old man's question during dinner. It must have been Zheng Feng who learned from Xiaolian about the location of his boxing practice, and then decided to stone himself to death. This is really a poisonous plan, who will care if there is gravel on the top of the cliff in the ordinary villagers, if they are really stoned to death, maybe they will be regarded as an accident, and then the real murderer will be at large.

In order to verify his conjecture, Song Zheng said to Song Yu: "Third uncle, don't ask anything first, you go outside the house and watch, who has come down from the mountain." Song Yu seemed to realize something, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait outside." Song Zheng said again: "You can just wait while cooking, don't let people find flaws." Song Yu said "um" and turned to go out.

In fact, it really made Song Zheng guess eight or nine. To be precise, after Zheng Feng made up his mind on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he went home and thought about it for another day, and discussed it with Qian Youcai. August 17, that is, yesterday, before the sky was bright, Zheng Feng climbed the mountain. It's a pity that because Song Zheng wanted to go to Old Man Gao to get medicine, he only moved a little in the morning and didn't go up the mountain, Zheng Fengbai waited for a morning. Because he was afraid that people would find out, Zheng Feng went up the mountain again in the middle of the night last night, waiting for Song Zheng to throw himself into the net. The temperature was low in the early morning, Zheng Feng froze half to death, and his stomach was filled with mountain wind. When he pushed the big stone just now, because he was too hard, he couldn't help but let out a fart, which was discovered by Song Zheng, who had a keen sense of hearing. Song Zheng reacted quickly and avoided the rain of stones.

The cliff was relatively high, and Zheng Feng didn't dare to look at it, so after pushing down the big stones, he threw down a few small stones that had been prepared, and ran away in a panic.

Song Yu was cooking outside, and Song Zheng moved a stool in the house and left the door. Song Zheng didn't want Zheng Feng to find himself when he walked in front of the house, and if the other party found out that he was in Song Yu's house, he would either run away from afar or take a risk.

After a while, Song Yu walked in and said, "Zheng'er, just now a woodcutter came down from the mountain, carrying a bundle of branches, and he is a long-term worker of the Qian family, who seems to be surnamed Zheng." Song Zheng asked again: "Is there anything strange about him?" Song Yu said: "This kid used to see me, he always pointed at me with his finger and laughed, laughing at me. This time I was in a panic, my clothes were torn, and when I saw that I didn't even pay attention to it, I went back to the village. ”

Song Zheng nodded and said, "Well, it should be him." ”

Song Yu said: "Zheng'er, what's going on? Song Zheng told what happened just now, and Song Yu was shocked: "This person surnamed Zheng is too bold to want to kill someone!" It must have been the money that made him do it. ”

Song Zheng nodded again and said, "Third uncle, you eat first, I'll go back and see how I kill him." Song Yu looked at his nephew's fierce face and was stunned for a while. Song Zheng realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly smiled and said, "I'll tell grandpa to go and let grandpa clean him up." So saying, he went out of the house. Song Yu was shocked again: This kid, his face has become too fast.

On the way back, Song Zheng thought about it, Old Man Song is seriously ill now, and if he told him about it, he had to make the old man angry, in case there was a good one, it would not be good. But I can't swallow this breath, so I have to think of a way to give the old dog who has money and wealth a ruthless one. Song Zheng kept thinking, that Zheng Feng seemed that he couldn't help him for a while, and there was still some hope for his rich grandson. When he walked to the door of the house, Song Zheng had a wicked smile on his face.

When Song Zheng returned home, Zhu and the others were naturally taken aback when they saw it, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Song Zheng replied embarrassedly, "When I crossed the forest, a rabbit popped out next to me, I thought it was some kind of monster, so scared that I ran quickly, accidentally fell, and when I looked back, I realized that it was a rabbit." Naturally, everyone didn't suspect anything, and was busy washing Song Zheng's face and changing clothes.

After breakfast, Song Zheng began to work in his room, he took a stack of white paper, kept drawing something on it, and borrowed a little rouge from Xiaoping that she was reluctant to use, and found a little paint to dye the cloth. The family is used to Song Zheng's performance, and they don't care about him. After a busy day, Song Zheng took out five separate sheets of the painted stack of white paper, and sewed the rest into a booklet. When he was done, he hid these things under the quilt.

At dinner, Song Zheng solemnly proposed that he would go to the clan school tomorrow morning, which made everyone stunned, what happened to this child? I've never seen him so proactive. Song Zheng hurriedly said his reason: "Grandpa said when I was going to study in the clan and exchange and learn with my friends." Now that my grandfather is sick, I think of what he said, and I always feel that I have failed my grandfather's expectations by being at home every day. Although the promised two months have not yet arrived, I still want to go to the family school to make my grandfather feel more at ease. "It's enough to associate the study of the upper clan with filial piety. However, not only did everyone not think it was strange, but they also felt that Song Zheng's filial piety was commendable. Wu sighed even more: "What a good boy." ”

That night, it was already late at night, and there were suddenly two cat meows outside Song's house, and Song Zheng's ears were amazing, so he could naturally hear that they were imitated by people. said in his heart: This Zheng Feng can't hold his breath, come to ask Xiaolian about the truth, I have to go out and listen to this play.

On the evening of August 18, the moonlight was still bright. Song Zheng walked to the arch of the east courtyard, and when he saw Xiaolian sneaking out of the house, he turned around and went out through the side door of the west courtyard, far behind Xiaolian. It was still the same yard, after the wheat straw stack, this time, Song Zheng had no ear, and there was no fierce field battle like the last time.

Xiaolian spoke first: "I haven't gone over yet, you can't wait?" ”

Zheng Feng said: "Where do you think of it, what I like is you, how can I just think about that." Song Zheng stretched out his middle finger on the other side of the wheat straw stack, you bastard, you deceived other girls, not to mention eating and wiping, but also playing with feelings, it's too much! Despise you!

At this time, I heard Xiaolian say again: "Today is not yet every five and ten, why did you call me out?" ”

"It's nothing, I just miss you." Zheng Feng said, "That little nerd in your family is still running to the West Mountain every day? ”

"Well," Xiaoping said, "I scratched my face this morning, and my clothes were scratched." ”

"Oh, he didn't say how?" Zheng Feng's voice was a little tight.

"It seems that I was scared by a rabbit and scratched by a branch in the forest."

"Oh," Zheng Feng seemed relieved, "I think he's a rabbit." ”

Song Zheng was so angry that he almost scolded, you shit, you almost stoned Lao Tzu to death, saying that you are a rabbit and you don't want to, no, you have to get it back if you say anything.

Listening to Zheng Feng's words, Xiaolian laughed and said, "Running stupidly every day, it's really like a rabbit." Song Zheng was naturally even more angry when he heard this.

After a while, Zheng Feng said again: "I heard that Old Man Song is also sick. ”

"Well, I was almost well, but I went out and let the wind blow a little again, and I got sicker."

"It must have been tossed too hard with his little wife, and he hollowed out his body." Zheng Feng was a little gloating beside him.

"Well," Xiaolian said, "maybe that's the case." Before I came out on the night of August 15, I heard movement in the house over there. ”

The old man is really "" overwork, Song Zheng sighed, you don't know how to be leisurely, the old man is so old, isn't it okay to do it twice a week? It's best once a week to strengthen your body and prolong your life.

Song Zheng was calculating the number of scientific times here, and heard Zheng Feng say over there: "It's good that this old man Song has died a long time ago, and when the time comes, there will be no one in charge of the Song family, and Master Qian will be able to clean up his house soon, won't it be easy for you to get out?" ”

Xiaolian said: "No, Master Song's body and bones have always been very good, although he is sick this time, Dr. Gao said that if you take care of it for a while, you will get better." ”

Zheng Feng asked, "Old Man Song took the medicine that you boiled, right?" ”

Xiaolian said, "Who else can there be?" We are slaves and maidservants. ”

Zheng Feng was silent for a while and said, "When you boil the medicine, do something inside, I'm sure that old man Song can't eat and walk around." ”

Xiaolian exclaimed, "What do you want to do?" Are you going to hurt someone? ”

Zheng Feng comforted her and said: "Don't worry, our master already has a good plan, when you boil the medicine, as long as you add this bag of things, no one can find out anything?" (Ask for votes, ask for collections, welcome to comment)
