"Lee? Is there anyone in the house? The villagers shouted tentatively, but there was no answer.

The villagers were a little scared, what was going on?

"Lee! At home? You've run out of brutes, come out and see! ”

Still no movement.

"Eh, what's going on?" He looked down and picked up some beans scattered on the ground, carried them around his clothes, and put them on the millstone beside him.

Looking around at this surprisingly quiet courtyard, he was a little afraid to go inside. At this time, three more villagers who went down to the field together passed by Li's house, and when they saw that the courtyard door was wide open, they also felt strange, so they walked in to see it.

The people in the courtyard were startled: "Eh. ”

The three men asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

The man said, "Look, the beasts are gone, I don't know what's going on." ”

The three people looked at each other, and one said, "Go in and see, don't have an accident." ”

"Yes, yes."

The four of them did not know who went to the door first, and they did not know who made an exclamation first, but the four of them ran out of the door and shouted: "There is immorality, there is immorality!" ”

"Come and see!"

Li Shen slowly opened his eyes, his body was cool, and he yawned and looked down.

Seeing the familiar mother lying in his arms in rags, Li Shen was instantly cold, he stiffened his body and patted Li's shoulder.

"Mother! Mother! Wake up! ”

"What are you shouting, what are you calling a soul!" Li rolled over and wanted to continue sleeping.

And the villagers who witnessed the Li family's mother and son sleeping in disheveled clothes hugging each other have already run to the village to spread everywhere at this moment. The lieutenant governor Yang Chengli and Ma Sue were shocked and angry, and rushed to Li's house with the villagers.

At the west end of the village, Sun Cai was still in a dream, but he was suddenly awakened by an exclamation in the courtyard.

When he sat up, he secretly said in his heart that it was not good, it was his mother's voice, what's wrong? Sun Cai stiffened up with a carp and jumped up from the kang, his face full of confusion.

"What's the matter, who, who's coming!"

Sun Cai pushed the eldest brother next to him, put on his coat, and went to the ground: "Big brother, get dressed and come out!" ”

The eldest of the Sun family shook his head again, his eyes wandered away for a while, picked up his clothes, and walked out of the room with a yawn.

Sun sat on the ground, leaning on the ground with tears in his eyes, crying and scolding: "Suffer a thousand cuts!" You have the guts to poison me! You kill people's cattle and sheep, it's not as good as pigs and dogs! ”

Sun Cai looked around the courtyard, the ploughing cows died, the dairy sheep died, the dozen hens that laid eggs died, and even the dogs watching the yard died.

The ground was full of poisoned livestock, and Sun Cai went crazy.

Who is it that uses this means to harm his family?

In the crowd, Wang Er came to the door with a hoe just now and asked, "Sun Cai, what's wrong with your family?" ”

This sentence was blurted out, and countless distrustful glances came from all directions.

I don't know which woman shouted: "Wang Er was poisoned!" ”

With only five faint words, Wang Er was dumbfounded.

While pounding the ground, Sun scolded crying: "Have you provoked Wang Er!" That's a wild dog, it bites when it sees meat! It's all your fault! It's all your fault! ”

Sun Cai looked at Wang Er, frowned, stepped forward, and said in a muffled voice: "Is it your dog cub who poisoned my family's brute!" ”

Wang Er picked his eyes: "What are you talking about, is it sick?" Whoever harmed your beasts, I think you are a wild dog. The damage to your own family has been retributed by God, and you are to blame on your grandfather, which is really a shame for you. ”

A young man jumped out of the wall and shouted, "Take Wang Er to the official mansion to ask for the crime!" Poison the cattle and destroy the livestock, see how the county lord sentences him! ”

This righteous and awe-inspiring shout was quickly approved by everyone. Also, since Wang Er first became addicted to gambling, the whole village has been borrowed by him.

He borrowed on the front foot, and the queen mother repaid on the back foot, borrowing and borrowing, and returning and repaying, all of which became confused accounts.

Many people hate themselves for being poor, but when they see others being poorer, they can't wait to give full play to the bitterness in their bodies, so that they seem to regard money as dung, just as all the villagers believe today, that is, Wang Er can't see that Sun Cai's family is living comfortably, and secretly kills other people's livestock.

"Wang Er, hmph, I've been like that since I was a child."

"Dogs can eat?"

"Bah, I don't believe it!"

Wang Er has become a catharsis for everyone and a target for everyone.

Liu Wu and Wang Qi still wanted to help Wang Er say a few good words, but seeing that the angry village neighbors had already tied up Wang Er, and the livestock corpses in this courtyard looked too terrifying, so that the two of them could only look at it like this and dare not speak.

Sun screamed in distress: "Poor old cow......" Immediately, she looked at Wang Er with her eyes like fire, and said viciously: "Report to the official!" ”

Wang Er looked at Sun's eyes, and said "hehe", hey, hey, hey.

Wang Er let them tie up, unhurried like a stupid lump, and said with a smile: "I really didn't poison his cattle and sheep, I showed Uncle Shen's family the land last night, and stayed in the mountains for a night, before I went home to have some food, and then I went out." When I went down the mountain in the morning, I met Ma Suo, and if I don't believe it, you can just ask Ma Suo. ”

As soon as they heard that it was Ma Chau who could testify, those people also quieted down, not believing in Wang Er, but believing in Ma Chau.

Those righteous and awe-inspiring bindings Wang Er, when they heard this, they stopped one after another.

Sun Cai cried and shouted, "I know who it is!" ”

He got it!

He remembered.

Shen Kang, he said, people should be responsible for doing things.

Is that what he's responsible for? He hates! He wants revenge! But does he dare?

Shen Kang, he dared to poison all the beasts in their family, and if he provoked him again, would he poison their family?

He had long known that Shen Kang was not an ordinary person.

Think about how Old Ghost Xie died? How did the Xie family fall? How did the Shen family get rich in just one year? I heard that Shen Kang also worshipped a famous literati as a teacher, and that was a person with a background!

He had long known that the Shen family was no longer easy to mess with, if it wasn't for Li Shen promising him to give him ten acres of land after the matter was completed, how could he take this risk?

Now seeing that most of his family's belongings are dying miserably, he has no hatred in his heart, only fear.

"Son! Who is it! Who poisoned our livestock? The old lady slaughtered him! Sun fluttered and was about to get up.

Where did Sun Cai dare to say in front of everyone that he and Li Shen had done something immoral and were retaliated against? He thought about it again, he had no evidence! Even if it is said that Shen Kang was poisoned, damn it, who will believe it!

"Son of a bitch!! You wait for me!! Sun Cai cried, slumped on the ground and cried with tears.

Wang Er was loosened from the rope and picked up the hoe on the ground again and carried it on his shoulder. remembered that Shen Kang came to him last night and gave him a contract, and now he is already a member of the Shen family.

In the future harvest of the Shen family, there will also be his... What does Childe call this? Dividends, yes, dividends.
