Chapter 42: Murder and Arson (I)

Zhu Hongsan came out of the county government and saw that it was already noon. Call Zhu Hongyi and Qian Yong and they go to eat for the sky. When he arrived at the gate of Shiweitian, the shopkeeper saw that Zhu Hongsan had led someone again, and he was almost scared to pee.

Zhu Hongyi patted the shopkeeper's fat face and said, "We are here to eat today, so we will go and reserve that room for my second brother. When the shopkeeper saw that he was really here for dinner, he was relieved. I thought that although the first half of the year was unpleasant, this Zhu Hongsan was the eldest young master's uncle after all, so it was better to serve carefully.

Thinking of this, the shopkeeper nodded and beckoned Zhu Hongsan and six people to go upstairs.

After a while, the wine and food came up, all of which were good dishes for the day, and the back kitchen also knew that the eldest young master's uncle was coming, and of course he performed hard. Zhu Hongsan was eating the food, and he felt really average, which was the level of the snack bar in his previous life. But Zhu Hongyi and a few of them were happy, Zhu Hongyi was holding a bear paw and gnawing on it, and the other four were thrown away with whirlwind chopsticks. Zhu Hongsan looked very happy, he likes people who can eat, being able to eat means that he is in good health, and he can block more knives for him.

After eating, Zhu Hongsan wiped his mouth, drank a cup of tea, and then asked the five of them: "Are they all full." The five of them nodded. Zhu Hongsan got up and said, "Let's go." ”

When he went to the door, the shopkeeper took the account book and said, "Great official, thanks to your patronage, a total of five taels and three dollars of silver." ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "It's not bad, conscience price." Let's keep the book. ”

The shopkeeper didn't understand and asked, "Big official, what did you say?" ”

Zhu Hongsan was dissatisfied: "I said bookkeeping, can't you hear clearly?" Bookkeeping bookkeeping bookkeeping bookkeeping, this time I heard it clearly. ”

This time, the shopkeeper really heard clearly, bookkeeping? Five taels of silver, I only have two taels of silver a month. Seeing that Zhu Hongsan was leaving, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Third master, you can't be unreasonable, why don't you give money for dinner." ”

As soon as Zhu Hongyi saw the shopkeeper come up to pull Zhu Hongsan, he was about to draw his knife. Zhu Hongsan waved his hand and said: "Big brother, we have to be reasonable, don't always fight and kill, and convince people with virtue." He turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Do you know who I am?" ”

"Recognize, aren't you Zhu Sanye?"

"Okay, who is my wife?"

"Your wife is the eldest lady of the Ma family."

"Who is your boss Guo Huaiyi's wife?"

"The eldest lady of my family is the eldest lady of the Ma family."

"Isn't this right, they are all their own people, have you ever seen someone who asks for money to eat at your own house?" After speaking, Zhu Hong's three and six people got on the horse and left.

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, just a few months ago, the big black man killed three people as soon as he made a move. Anyway, Zhu Hongsan said just now that he and Guo Huaiyi are a family, let the eldest young master worry about it.

After closing the door at night, the shopkeeper went to Guojiazhuang to tell Guo Huaiyi about it. The angry Guo Huaiyi scolded. But after thinking about it, there is no way, I will marry Ma Ruyan in a few days, this is a marriage that the uncle in Nanzhili tried his best to promote, and there can be no loss. waved his hand and let the shopkeeper go down. After a while, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, thinking of Ma Ruyan's delicate face like a flower, her lower body swelled uncomfortably, grabbed the maid ring in the room and pressed it under her, and said while stirring: "Slut, I won't intervene in you when you pass the door." ”

Zhu Hongsan and the others were satisfied, and went out of the city and returned to the farm. It just so happened that Ma Xiaofang also came back, and she was sitting in the house sulking. Zhu Hongsan went in and asked, "Madam, aren't you going back to your parents' house?" Why did you quarrel with your dad again? ”

Ma Xiaofang replied: "It's not with my father, it's my niece Ma Ruyan, he is really a miserable child." ”

Zhu Hongsan asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ma Xiaofang stood up and closed the door, then came back and sat down and whispered: "A few days ago, I heard from the little sister that Guo Huaiyi had five concubines and gave birth to four children, the oldest of whom was twelve. Think about how big it is. ”

Zhu Hongsan said disapprerovitically: "It's normal, the rolling mines are in their twenties, maybe almost thirty, it's normal to have a few children and concubines, maybe there was a main house before." But your family doesn't know. ”

Ma Xiaofang shouted: "And the main house? Isn't that like smoke filling in the past? ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "It's not that you are married, which door do you copy." ”

Ma Xiaofang thought for a while, stood up and left. Zhu Hongsan shouted: "Go there again." ”

Ma Xiaofang replied from afar: "I'll ask my father if he knows about Guo Huaiyi's main house." ”

Zhu Hongsan thought to himself, do you still need to ask? When he went, he had to fight with his father again.

Zhu Hongsan was lying on the bed thinking about Guo Huaiyi, this guy still has four days to get married, how can he kill this bastard? also thought that Ma Ruyan was so beautiful that he would be ruined by Guo Huaiyi's rolling landmine, and it would be better for me to spoil it.

Thinking of this, he stood up and opened the door and shouted, "Qian Yong! ”

After a while, Qian Yong ran over and shouted, "Report to the chief, Qian Yong has arrived." ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded, their military posture in the past few months has been completely formed.

Zhu Hongsan said: "Qian Yong, give you an order, tonight you lead the three brothers to go to Guojiazhuang, find out how many people and how many houses there are in Guojiazhuang, and it is best to find out how many people Guo Huaiyi will marry in the sixth year of the first month, and who will come." ”

Qian Yong said: "Guarantee to complete the task." "Then go out and pick people.

Zhu Hongsan nodded and thought that this Qian Yong was a good seedling of scouts. These non-commissioned officers and cadets have been practicing for half a year, and tomorrow it is time to teach them the gun formation.

When it was dark, Ma Xiaofang came back and sat in the room without speaking.

Zhu Hongsan asked, "How is it?" Let your father scold again? ”

Ma Xiaofang nodded and said, "My father actually knew that Guo Huaiyi had a main house, but he died of illness a few years ago. But he still wants to marry Ruyan, saying that he has already talked to Master Guo of Nanzhili. ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "Did your father still say that he wanted to marry you to him, but you are not angry, and you fall in love with me." ”

Ma Xiaofang's eyes widened and said, "How do you know?" ”

Zhu Hongsan said: "Is this unknown, you are old, you are old, you are old, and the rolling landmine is also a dead wife, you two are really Ding San and Ding Si, a natural pair." ”

As soon as Ma Xiaofang heard this, she came to twist Zhu Hongsan's ears and said, "Will you say something human." ”

Zhu Hong dodged the jade hand with three heads, and stepped forward to pick up Ma Xiaofang and put him on the bed. said: "I'll see if my wife is yellow." ”

Ma Xiaofang was shy: "Blow the wax." ”

Zhu Hongsan shook his head and said, "You can see clearly when there is a light." ”

After a while, Zhu Hongsan shouted: "It's not yellow, it's out of the water." ”

Ma Xiaofang pinched him and said, "I hate it." ”

The next morning, Qian Yong came to Zhu Hongsan to report. Zhu Hongsan pulled him to the non-commissioned officer cafeteria, saw that there was no one inside, and said, "Say it." ”

Qian Yong took out a notebook with a topographical map drawn on it. Zhu Hongsan took it and took a look, it was not bad. Guojiazhuang is built on the edge of a small river, with two gates in front and back, and five courtyards inside. Forty-two houses. The owner, Guo Lian, lives in the fourth courtyard. The eldest young master, Guo Huaiyi, entered the courtyard in the second.

Zhu Hongsan nodded and asked, "How many people are there in Guojiazhuang?" ”

Qian Yong replied: "There are more than 240 people in the whole village, and there are 56 people in the Guo family. The eighteen men are basically women. The new house on the sixth day of junior high school is in the main house on the east side of the second courtyard. More than 200 guests came, but they were all arranged in the first courtyard. Second, when they entered the courtyard, no one could enter except for the female dependents. ”

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said, "Qian Yong, you did a good job." Let's go back. ”

"Yes, sir," Qian Yong said and went back to the barracks.

Zhu Hongsan touched his chin and thought, more than 50 people, more than 200 guests, it seems that Zhu Hongyi and I are not enough. No, take a few non-commissioned officers alive, it should be about the same with thirty * grenades.

Zhu Hongsan* went to Tie Niu to see how the shell was doing. Go and see if a hundred have been made. Casting is fast, after all, it is done with molten iron. Take a good look at it, yes, it's a little thicker than the previous small hammer, because it is cast, so the whole is cylindrical, and the weight is lighter than the previous round. Zhu Hongsan took thirty finished shells. Go back to the gunpowder shop and pour out the gunpowder, place the lead, and seal the mouth with wax. Looking at the thirty large wooden-handled hand grenades, Zhu Hongsan smiled and said, "My big stick is already hungry and thirsty. ”

It was the sixth day of February. At eight o'clock in the evening, Zhu Hongsan took the props and equipment made in the past few days, led Zhu Hongyi, Qian Yong, and Zhao Si to set off. Guojiazhuang is far away from the county seat. It didn't take much to get around the county seat, and it took an hour to arrive. When he was two miles away from Zhuangzi, he dismounted, found a tree to tie the horse, and the four of them rushed to Guojiazhuang on foot. Half a mile away, you can see Guojiazhuang brightly lit. Zhu Hongsan stopped and said, "Qian Yong, Zhao Si." Outside the wall, when you saw a fire in Guojiazhuang, you threw all 30 grenades into the village. Then shouted Our Lady of the White Lotus, the vegetable eater, the lifeless old mother, for the heavens. Shout three times in a row. You can go back to where the tethered horse is waiting for us. You know? ”

Qian Yong and Zhao Si said, "Yes, sir." ”

Zhu Hongsan said to Zhu Hongyi: "Big brother, you go to the back yard and see that all the men have been killed, and the women are watching." Try not to be exposed. Then go to the new house on the east side of the second courtyard to find me. ”

Zhu Hongyi nodded.

Zhu Hong's three or four people came to act separately.

Let's just talk about Zhu Hongsan, he came to the wall of Guojiazhuang courtyard, and estimated that he had reached the second courtyard. I climbed over the wall and went in to see that it was the second courtyard and was still drinking in front of me. What Zhu Hongsan landed on was a plum blossom forest. He found the house to the east from memory. At first glance, it was a new house, and the door was pasted with big red happy words.

Zhu Hongsan saw that there was no one around, and quietly pushed the door open and went in. Then close the door. Seeing the red candles lit up in the back room, I knew that Ma Ruyan was in the back room. When I went inside, I saw a woman with a veil sitting on the bed. Zhu Hongsan walked to the side of the bed, put the horizontal knife on the side of the bed, and raised his hand to remove the hijab. saw Ma Ruyan's charming face. Coupled with the red candles in the house, it is even more beautiful.

Ma Ruyan originally thought that Guo Huaiyi was back. When I looked up, I saw how it was my uncle. Ma Ruyan was deeply impressed by Zhu Hongsan, and he was so ashamed to die that he saw his unwritten things that day, but his aunt explained to him for a long time before he was angry. Now I was stunned when I saw Zhu Hongsan coming to remove his hijab, and he said for a long time: "Uncle why are you?" ”
