Chapter 42: Zhou Tugen

As soon as he went downstairs, the shopkeeper came over and said with an embarrassed face that Xin'er went into the kitchen to get vegetables, as for what this meant, Chu Tian also understood in his heart.

After taking out a little silver from his arms and throwing it to him, the shopkeeper's face immediately became as bright as a blooming flower, and he walked away.

At this time, Xin'er also happened to come out of the back kitchen, and when she saw that Chu Tian had come down, she happily raised the meat and vegetables in her hand, and Chu Tian was a little funny.

Xin'er's family used to open a steamed bun shop, and the business could only be regarded as average, barely able to make a living, and the shop happened to open at the end of the inn street.

Almost all of the people living there are low-level working people, so almost all of them are doing their business.

The store is just a small storefront, and behind the store is Xin'er's home, which is very convenient, the two of them walk side by side in the night, plus the vegetables in Xin'er's hands, it is more like a couple who go home to cook.

Although it was getting late, there were still a lot of people on the street, and even Chu Tian saw that many people were hanging some lanterns on both sides of the street, as if there was some festival.

When I asked, I found out that some wealthy businessmen in the county had joined forces to celebrate the death of Lin Fangyuan's father and son, and it was also possible to be so annoying as Lin Fangyuan.

The road was not far, and it didn't take long to arrive, but when they came to the door, the two of them stood still at the door.

"Xin'er, is this your home?"

Pointing to the family in front of him, Chu Tian also asked suspiciously.

It's just that seeing Xin'er's frowning look knows that there is a chance that it is, and Xin'er looks angry, as if she wants to eat people.

It's no wonder that Chu Tian asked, because there was a light shining in the house in front of him, and at first glance, someone was living there, but Xin'er's parents were dead, how could there be anyone?

Is it being usurped?

"Damn, he's here again."

When Chu Tianzheng didn't understand, he saw Xin'er beside him throw the food in his hand and push the door directly in, and the angry appearance made Chu Tian very curious.

But it seems that Xin'er should know who it is, but it doesn't seem to be treated by Xin'er, on the contrary, it should make Xin'er very annoying.

This kind of disgust only appeared in Chutian when Xin'er saw Lin Yongtian, and it is estimated that the person inside is not much better than Lin Yongtian.

Just when Chu Tian was afraid of some accident and was about to enter, a black shadow flashed in the alley in the distance, which happened to be noticed by Chu Tian.

Although I didn't see what the person looked like, looking at the width of the alley and the speed at which the person passed, it should have passed quickly, and I deliberately didn't want people to see it.

And his steps are very light, he should be a person who practices martial arts, and he is sneaky at night, and he is not a serious person at first glance, which makes Chu Tian a little curious.

"Why are you here, you get out of here, I don't want to see you here again." Just when Chu Tian was thinking about whether to go over and take a look, Xin'er's angry scolding came from inside the house.

Chu Tian went in directly without the slightest hesitation, as for the mysterious person, he would talk about it later.

When I entered the house, I was greeted by a disgusting smell of sweat and alcohol, and it seemed to be the smell of rancid meat and rancid things, which made me want to vomit.

I saw that there was a middle-aged man in addition to Xin'er, about forty years old, sloppy.

There was a foul smell on his body, and he was sitting naked in a shabby chair drinking at this time.

Looking around, it was empty, there was not much furniture, just a bed, a table and a few chairs, but there were some white marks in many places showing that things had been placed before.

It's just that now that I've moved away, I can only ask the person in front of me who moved.

The man was visibly drunk, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he was trying to open his eyes to see who was making a loud noise.

"Xin'er, you dead girl still knows that when you come back, I'm about to be killed by you, I'll kill you."

After a while, this person saw Xin'er clearly, his eyes widened, as if he saw something incredible, only to see him scolding in his mouth, and he had to stand up and beat Xin'er.

It's just that I just stood up and sat down with weak legs, but this time I didn't sit on the chair, and accidentally sat on the ground, but fortunately, the whole person was a little drunk, and I didn't feel much pain.

Xin'er looked at this person angrily, clenched her fists tightly, and the gritted teeth looked like she had a deep hatred.

"Xin'er, who is this person?"

Looking at the middle-aged man, Chu Tian also asked.

This person is not young, and he is so kind to Xin'er, he should be Xin'er's elder.

But what about the relationship between the two? can make Xin'er so annoying.

"Xin'er? What are you? Dare to call me niece like that, Xin'er, is it because of this poor ghost that you rejected Young Master Lin? Are you stupid? He is rich, can he be richer than Young Master Lin? You...... ”

Xin'er hadn't spoken yet, but the middle-aged man had noticed Chu Tian.

As if he had found an interface all of a sudden, he couldn't stop at all after saying one sentence after another, pointing at Chu Tian's nose and talking to Xin'er.

It's just that there is no good word, either that Young Master Lin is rich or that Chutian is poor, not that Xin'er is stupid or that Xin'er has harmed herself.

"His name is Zhou Tugen, and he is my second uncle, but I have nothing to do with him anymore."

Looking at this person in disgust, Xin'er explained to Chu Tian.

A simple explanation is enough to show that it is really annoying.

"Doesn't matter? You fart, do you know how much effort I put into matching you and Young Master Lin? I finally agreed, but who knew that your father's bastard actually ran away with your whole family, and the one thousand taels that Young Master Lin promised me was gone. One thousand taels, do you know how many one thousand taels are? You pay me, you pay me a thousand taels. ”

When Zhou Tugen heard Xin'er's words, he stomped his feet angrily, and said nonsense to Xin'er, his face full of pain.

Young Master Lin, as a bully, has his own habits when it comes to women.

The twisted melon is not sweet, so he likes the willing, and he will come if he is really unwilling.

So after falling in love with Xin'er, he also asked Zhou Tugen, the Zhou family, to persuade him, and after the matter was completed, he promised to give him 1,000 taels of silver as a hardship fee.

As soon as Chu Tian saw Zhou Tugen, he knew that he was a person who fell into the eyes of money, and family affection was a piece of shit in his eyes.

For the sake of a thousand taels of silver, Zhou Tugen naturally kept persuading his eldest brother, and even said that he would not leave if he did not agree.

It's just that in the end, Xin'er and his father ran away with Xin'er silently, and his thousand taels were naturally gone.

Therefore, he also has a grudge against his eldest brother, thinking that he is harming himself.

"Don't say my father, do you know that my father is dead and was killed by Lin Yongtian's bastard."

mentioned her father, Xin'er couldn't help but feel sad, and roared angrily at Zhou Tugen.
