I saw Shen Qinqi smile bitterly and said: "What's so good, living is no different from dead!" ”

Tao Zhenkun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law, where is this?"

Shen Qinqi avoided answering and asked, "Why didn't you see your brother come back?"

Tao Zhenkun smiled: "Do you miss my brother? This time I came back in a hurry, I didn't bother to go up to see him, don't worry, he found a job in a tofu factory, and the salary is good, don't worry about it, I'll bring him back next time. ”

As he spoke, he took out the candy from his pocket and handed it to Shen Qinqi and said, "Give this candy to the two children, and—"

Shen Qinqi hesitated and didn't answer.

Tao Zhenkun stuffed the candy into her pocket, then took out another handful and put it in, and then took out a pile of money that looked like a lot of money from her jacket pocket and put it in her hand and said: "You can use this money to fill the household first, first make new clothes for Chu Ge and Mei Xiang, and then buy oil, salt, sauce and vinegar or something, improve your life, don't be too bitter children." ”

Shen Qinqi's tears fell in a puff.

Tao Zhenkun was stunned when he saw this and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you crying?"

"Sister-in-law, go back!" Liu Xingmei pulled the corner of Tao Zhenkun's clothes, silently led the horse away, and the black tiger also followed silently.

Tao Zhenkun was surprised, so he had to stop asking anything, and followed forward and asked, "What's wrong?"

Liu Xingmei tried to control her sadness and didn't let the tears flow, but she still choked up and said, "Mei Xiang, she-she-died!" ”

"Y-what did you say?" Tao Zhenkun was shocked.

"I'll never see Mei Xiang again!"

"She—how did she die?"

Liu Xingmei shook her head, she would keep the secret!

Tao Zhenkun still looked back at the crumbling Shen Qinqi, and asked bitterly: "What a good girl, how can this be!" ”

Liu Xingmei had no choice but to say: "I-I don't know!" ”

This is really "I don't know if I ask three questions, and the gods are no wonder".

That beautiful and lovely little girl will clearly appear in her memories.

The past is like a dream!

"How so?!" Tao Zhenkun was swallowed up by a lot of sadness, and everything was really changing. He couldn't help but feel an indescribable chagrin and anger, but there was nowhere to spread this chagrin and anger! He returned home full of beautiful hopes and hopes, but to his disappointment, he found that something unsatisfactory happened!

In his nature, like Liu Xingmei, he is willing to see the best side of the world.

Liu Xingmei was silent.

"How did she die?"

"Commit suicide by cutting your wrists!"

At this time, Liu Xingmei felt like a thorn in her back to the pair of eyes that were left behind! There was ridicule and sympathy in those eyes, both of which would not be pleasant to look at anyone!

"What the hell is going on?"

Liu Xingmei shook her head.

Tao Zhenkun is out of luck this time, the fool is no longer a fool, he is a hero who can go to the battlefield to kill devils, and the people who used to ridicule and despise him have completely changed their views and began to admire him.

So, the curious villagers followed behind, wanting to see what the Wu family's attitude towards Tao Zhenkun was.

Only Meng Guoan and Kong Wu stood still, worried because of guilt, and uneasy because of fear!

Kong Wu glared at Meng Guoan angrily, and said with great annoyance: "Do you see what our brothers and sons have done?" This is - it's the little ghost day, Lord Yama, a terrible thing! If Tao Zhenkun knew about that, he ?——? he would have killed the two of us before he took out his gun, and now even Old Lady Wu can't save us, he is an officer, who can't listen to him?! ”

Meng Guoan said with a sad face: "Who knew it would be like this? What a pair of bastards! ”

"It's all your fault!"

"There is no regret medicine in the world!"? Meng Guoan, who made the figurines, really regretted it at this time, and he only then realized that he was not a mistake but an unforgivable sin!

"What then?"

"Anyway, others don't know, God knows that you know and I know, no one will say, since he is a soldier, it is impossible not to leave. As long as he's at home, we'll hide. ”

Kong Wu pointed at Meng Guoan's nose and scolded: "You are not only underbeaten, but even damned!" There is a debtor who is wronged, and he can't hide from the fifteenth day of junior high school! It's a shame for me to have a cousin like you, and now I know you're so bad, and this time it's going to be bad for yourself! Just let's not talk about it, do you think Liu Xingmei is stupid? She probably knew it a long time ago, thinking that she wanted to show off a few drops of ink in her stomach, and she just wrote some broken poems, even children learned to memorize them, this is all a good thing you did! If you find out who wrote the poem, you will be exposed, and when the time comes, you will go around if you can't eat it, and you will have to take your life! Even if Liu Xingmei doesn't say it, Tao Zhenkun doesn't know about it, but the people of the Wu family are not deaf or dumb, won't they listen or ask? Once we know about this, we just don't pursue it, and it will be difficult for us to be people in the village anymore! ”

Hearing this, Meng Guoan was frightened into a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "For the sake of my cousin and cousin, you can't betray me, don't forget that we are grasshoppers on a rope!" ”

Kong Wu sneered: "Now you're scared? ”

"Who is not afraid of death!"

"Don't do anything unethical if you're afraid of death! Didn't you think about the consequences when you co-authored? Fan Zheng I am out of the way, I want to take the blame on Liu Xingmei, if I can't get her forgiveness, it's a big deal! ”

"I don't have the ability to be a prophet!" Meng Guo'an was anxious, and he didn't care that others would see it, so he knelt down for Kong Wu, and tearfully took Kong Wu's hand and begged: "Brother, please don't do that, you don't want to think that you are the old and the young, what should you do if you leave them?!" ”

"I-"

"Liu Xingmei is a very tolerant and generous person, as long as we don't say it, she won't necessarily pursue it, and she won't say it to Tao Zhenkun, so don't look for trouble!"

"But—but my conscience can't get over it, she didn't do anything to be sorry for others! Now that everyone in the village knows about her, you can see what she has been tortured into, such a strong and good woman is not destroyed in the hands of others but in the hands of the two of us! ”

"Don't forget the scythe's cut in your leg!"

"It's no wonder she's going to do that!"

"Okay, if you want to say it, just go, as soon as you go, I will seek death immediately, and I don't need Tao Zhenkun to shoot me!"

In this way, Kong Wu hesitated.

The person who walked in front, Rong Fanhui turned his head and said in surprise: "Look, how can my cousin kneel down?!" ”

Xin Dongfang said hatefully: "It must be something lacking in virtue, conscience discovery!" ”

Wang San said: "I really didn't expect that it was two embarrassed people!" ”

Qi Yuzhu glared at him and said, "Only now do you know?" Let's don't associate with this kind of person in the future! ”

These two can be said to have a friendship with Liu Xingmei, although they have no contact, but what they admire Liu Xingmei is the five-body throw. Liu Xingmei had this kind of thing, they all had no idea of gloating, and some just sympathized.

Potato said, "How can there be villains like them in our village?!" ”

He was moved by Liu Xingmei's concern for his father.

Liu Cuihua, who usually doesn't like to talk much, scolded: "Everyone knows who wrote the poem that insulted Liu Xingmei, it's really hateful!" ”

In her heart, she will always have a gratitude for Liu Xingmei's life-saving grace, and now the family harmony and husband and wife love are all thanks to Liu Xingmei.

Rong Fanhui saw that his wife was angry, and also scolded: "People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and tiger's hearts are separated from sweaters." A belly of wolf hearts, dog lungs, rabbit offal, how can people like this secretly make bad people die all at once! If Tao Zhenkun knew about that, he should have been shot, this kind of person is not a pity! ”

In his heart, he is also full of gratitude to Liu Xingmei, if it weren't for Liu Xingmei who saved his wife and taught him a profound lesson in education, he would not have a home with old and young people!

Under the aura of Tao Zhenkun's "official", some people began to condemn and curse despicable people from a righteous position without fear, as if they no longer dared to be angry and dare not speak, and felt that they no longer had to worry about offending people.

And Han Sixiang, who was at a loss, was also mixed in the crowd, she didn't say a word, when she heard this scolding, she really didn't feel a good feeling, in her ears, it was very meaningful, if she hadn't participated in mocking Liu Xingmei with Xiong Fengmei that day, Liu Xingmei would not have been able to tell others about her kind of disgraceful things, and others would not have been made into a storm if they knew about it and kept it hidden. Besides, she and Liu Xingmei have no hatred or hatred, what kind of help can she give to Xiong Fengmei, who has hatred and hatred? Didn't she poke a stupid dog on the wall! Now she longed to sew up her troubled mouth with a needle and thread, and she was willing to become a mute at once. Why is it so painful to form a diaphragm with someone for no reason? The current Tao Zhenkun is not what it used to be, once he gets entangled in getting into trouble by pulling his wife's tongue, he will become the first to be wronged! She seemed to be able to feel the fear of Meng Guoan and Kong Wu, so she was also afraid. Thinking about this, she stopped to see the excitement, and walked in the direction of home, and her heart was full of regret and anxiety! was even worried that her stupid thing would be known by her husband Qin Liancheng, and that it was a trivial matter to be beaten and scolded, for fear of implicating her family, she had to think about it! She didn't know how big Tao Zhenkun's official was, but when she saw Meng Guoan and Kong Wu being scared like that, she felt that she must have the power to kill! In these times of turmoil, the rule of law that needs to be observed has become weak.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, so she fell behind.

"What's wrong with you?" Ma Ya asked curiously. Her husband Zhang Qi was beaten into a vegetative state by Jiao Tan and has not yet woken up. Although there is a breath of air, there is not much difference between being alive and dead.

Han Sixiang seemed to ignore her words, and simply turned around and walked in the direction of home.

Rong Fanhui snorted and said, "If you don't do bad things, you won't be afraid of ghosts calling the door!" ”

Liu Xingmei, who was leading the horse and walking in front with Tao Zhenkun, turned her head, and also saw Han Sixiang who was leaving, and after her eyes passed over the group of people who followed, she was also surprised to see Meng Guoan and Kong Wu, she knew what was going on like a mirror in her heart, but she couldn't say it, she could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly! If you tell the truth and ask who wrote that poem, the current Tao Zhenkun is no longer the same person he used to be, with his current official rank, killing a grass farmer in this small mountain village far away from the town is not as easy as killing a bed bug, she can't bear to take a human life for this matter! Although she had hatred in her heart, she could not have this cruelty. She knows that today's Tao Zhenkun is no longer the cowardly and timid man he used to be, he has experienced the baptism of the bloody battlefield, and it is easy to exercise the violent and ferocious side of a person's nature, not to mention that he is not an ordinary soldier, and the officer has a long temper, which is a natural phenomenon. Even if someone uses the method of "hurting people with hidden arrows" to ruin her reputation, she really doesn't want to turn against anyone in the township, and kindness is still her nature. She will not rely on her husband's power to bully others, so she can only be happy for a while, and she can establish a glorious image before and there are still some of them now, if she really just relies on a moment of impulse, she will be gone, and when it is destroyed, she will be even more self-ashamed in Heping Village!

Once a person who couldn't endure it, he learned to endure more tenacity than others, this is the different Liu Xingmei.

When turning an alley, the tall gatehouse of the Wu family is in front of you, and outside the door with two mighty stone lions, there are two rows of men, women and children, who are more than 30 members of the Wu family, including Yang Zehu and Lin Chaoyang.

is not only Tao Zhenkun's "transformation" that brings surprise and curiosity, but also the "lost and regained" black tiger.

When I met Tao Zhenkun and Liu Xingmei, the husband and wife, first of all, Wu Jinlu, Wu Jinxi, and Wu Jinqi, the brothers, greeted them with trotting steps.

Tao Zhenkun was moved, stepped forward quickly, and hurriedly said: "Second grandfather, third grandfather, fourth grandfather, hello!" ”

As he spoke, he was about to kneel down and kowtow, but was stopped by Wu Jinlu and asked, "We're all good, I heard Rong'er say that you became a soldier, is this true?" ”

"It's true."

Wu Jinxi asked: "Are you an official?" ”

Tao Zhenkun said modestly: "A mere adjutant is nothing!" ”

Wu Jinqi said: "Amazing! ”

The only one of the four brothers is the lack of the boss Wu Jinfu, after he was exposed about the affair with the flower stamen (Sakura Maiko), he was ashamed to see people, and since then he has been sick for a long time, and no one in the village has ever seen him step out of the gate since then. Some people say that he was broken by Old Lady Wu in a fit of anger, but it can only be regarded as a rumor.

The three brothers couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard this, and Wu Jinlu waved his hand at the family as he spoke.

Immediately afterward, a burst of firecrackers was heard.

Tao Zhenkun never thought that the Wu family would treat him with such a grand welcome ceremony, which really flattered him. He only knew that he had captured a Japanese devil who spied on the village, which was considered to be kind to the villagers, but he didn't know that Liu Xingmei rescued Wu Huan and Wu Le from the hands of the two kidnappers, and he was also kind to the Wu family.

Then the eight brothers of the Wu family, Yang Zehu and Lin Chaoyang also gathered around and greeted each other.

Lin Chaoyang looked at the black tiger and asked in surprise, "It wasn't lost?" ”

"It's looking for me." Tao Zhenkun said lightly.

Standing in front of Old Lady Wu's arms, he looked at the bearded grandfather and said, "Master, I didn't tell a lie, right?" ”

Old lady Wu stroked his head and said, "How can my great-grandson tell a lie, but you are lazy and slippery, your sisters, brothers, brothers and sisters are all studying in class, but you ran out to play." ”

Zheng Rong grinned and made a naughty face at the grandfather.

An old man with strict family law will only appear kind and tolerant in front of his great-grandson.

The old lady of the Su family said with a smile on the side: "Your grandfather protects you, but if your father knows, he will also give you a pass." ”

Zheng Rong pouted and said, "Our grandfather has the final say, as long as the grandfather doesn't care, I'm not afraid of my father!" ”

The old lady of the Su family glanced at her husband and said, "Master, did you hear it, if this child is spoiled, you are responsible!" ”

Old lady Wu didn't speak, but she smiled.

Zheng Rong asked, "Why didn't my grandfather come out?" ”

"Nonsense!"

Although Zheng Rong is young, he can also look at his face smartly, and when he saw that the master suddenly had no smile on his face, he was stunned.

Tao Zhenkun came to the gate like a moon held by the stars, and Old Lady Wu looked at him with a kind smile. He took off his top hat and handed it to Liu Xingmei to hold, hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down in front of the two old men, kowtowed his head and said, "Two old men, Zhenkun, please be safe, your body is still so good, I am really happy to see it." ”

Wu Yuanzu put his hands together and said: Good boy, thank you for your concern, please get up quickly, why bother with this big gift.
