It wasn't until noon that Li Biao anxiously waited for the news that his second brother Li Di had brought back from the county government.

Li Di, who had just returned to the shop, took off the top hat he was wearing on his head, and before he could take a sip of water, Li Biao couldn't wait to ask.

"Has Shi'er suffered? What did the black dogs do with the poems? What charges are they going to give Shi'er? Li Biao was very concerned about his poetry, he knew the truth that the yamen was as deep as the sea, and he couldn't wait to replace Wang Shi'er by himself.

You must know that in the minutes and seconds after Wang Shi'er's arrest, his heart was not at peace for a moment, because he had already empathized with Shi'er's situation.

Li Di smashed his dry lips and said sincerely: "Little brother, don't worry too much, I have already made an appointment with the shopkeeper Liao of the silk cloth village and the shopkeeper Zhang of the Longquan Inn to go to the county government together, and we also met our uncle......"

Seeing Li Biao's face full of displeasure, he quickly changed his words: "We met with County Magistrate Gu,—— he said that although Wang Shi'er seems innocent on the surface, after all, two people died in the security group, and someone has to come out to take responsibility......

"I'll fuck his grandma, don't be responsible if they kill so many people? It's not enough to shoot the eldest brother, and if they die two people themselves, someone will be held responsible, what kind of royal law is this? Li Biao was so angry that he almost roared in anger.

Li Di ignored his radical words and deeds, he just said carefully: "In order for Wang Shi'er not to be framed, let's talk about it, County Magistrate Gu finally agreed to take care of Shi'er, that is, not to torture her first, but the person still has to be locked up, and they can only release the person after they investigate clearly......

The lesser of two evils, since Wang Shi'er has been caught by them, it is already a blessing in misfortune that she was not tortured and was treated kindly.

Li Biao calmed down his mood, he knew that the second brother had tried his best, and he might have been too worried about Shi'er to make such an unwise move.

He looked at Li Di gratefully, and said sincerely: "Thank you, second brother, I know that you have done your best, maybe I blame myself too much in my heart, so I ......"

Li Di waved his hand and signaled, the family didn't talk to each other, he knew the mood of the third brother at this time, if he hadn't made a hindrance, their lovers might have become married.

He looked at his depressed younger brother, as if he suddenly remembered something, and he said to Li Biao: "Third brother, I specially asked them to let me see Wang Shi'er today......

Li Biao's eyes lit up, he immediately came to his senses, grabbed Li Di and couldn't wait to ask, "Is she okay?" Didn't you suffer any grievances, did she say anything to you? ”

Li Di paused, of course he couldn't tell him the truth about Wang Shi'er's disheveled face and dirt, he just said lightly: "She said that she is very good, let you not worry about her, and let you help her do what she didn't do well." - What the hell is going on? ”

Li Di was a little curious, he didn't know what the big thing was that Wang Shi'er was already in prison and still in love, and he also asked about it, but there happened to be a security team passing by, and Wang Shi'er smiled calmly and said that "Brother Biao knows".

Li Biao was stunned at first, and when he saw the second brother's expectant eyes, he understood what Wang Shi'er meant, but he just told the second brother lightly that Shi'er was asking him to take good care of the second child in her shop.

Li Di let out an "oh", which made him see more and more clearly that Wang Shi'er was indeed a rare strange woman, she could have such a heart, and she was in prison without forgetting the hardships of her subordinates, which was worthy of respect!

When night fell, Li Di wanted Li Biao to go back, he was afraid that Li Biao would do something stupid while he was away, but how could Li Biao do what he wanted, he repeatedly promised that he would never mess around, and the family would be even more worried that the second brother would not come home for a few days.

Li Di thought about it, the third brother was not the kind of person with developed limbs and a simple mind, he naturally had his own sense of proportion, so he went home boldly with confidence.

The night quietly shrouded the mountain city, and the city civilians who had been tired for a day also returned to the house to rest like tired birds returning to their nests, Li Biao put on a night coat and jumped on the wall, and quietly disappeared into the night.

In the dilapidated courtyard of the old Wangtou's house in the east of the city, the family is sitting around a black pot made of three adobe bricks.

Wang Xiaoer was sadly holding the rice straw and adding fire to the bottom of the black pot little by little, the room was extremely simple, except for two broken beds and some rotten tables and stools, there was nothing else of value.

Wang Xiaoer's wife, wearing a tattered dress with patches and patches, was scooping some sweet potato leaves in the pot iron with a bamboo spoon, and after scooping it, she trembled and handed it to her mother-in-law who was sick in bed.

I went back to take care of the two children, the older girl, who was eight or nine years old, was holding the "food" that her mother had given her, and she was blowing with tears in her eyes.

It is said that it is a meal, but it is actually not as good as our current pig food, because there is no rice grain in that big pot iron except sweet potato leaves or sweet potato leaves.

Wang Xiaoer's family has been without food for two days, and it was originally planned that it would be the end of the month, so that he could pay some wages on the counter of the teahouse, so that he could come back to support his family.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and Wang Shi'er's arrest is like the last straw he grabbed and collapsed in an instant......

Wang Xiaoer looked at his daughter sadly, although he was also eating with tears in his eyes, he was more sensible, but his three-year-old child was crying endlessly in the dark. - He was reluctant to eat this sweet potato leaf without a little oil and salt.

His wife could only blindly coax the child: "Cub behaves, eat, eat and eat quickly, grow into a big guy in a blink of an eye, go out and pick up a big copper plate......"

The family was struggling in a miserable life, and suddenly, there was a sound of "tom" outside the door, and the little girl had sharp eyes and clapped her little hands happily and said: "Dad, the copper plate has fallen from the sky!" ”

Wang Xiaoer also heard the sound, and he chased out of the house in three steps and two steps, and in the dim light of the fire, he saw a bag of things lying on the ground in front of the door of his house.

He leaned down and hesitantly grabbed it, holding it in his hand and feeling heavy, he hurriedly ran back to the house, on the faint light of the fire next to the pot iron, he recognized at a glance that it was the owner's money bag, he hurriedly opened it to see, it was the white silver dollar and the yellow copper plate, which for him, was tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow!

Is the owner coming out? He reacted immediately, Wang Xiaoer hurriedly chased out of the house, and shouted loudly: "Shopkeeper!" Shopkeeper's! ”

However, in the boundless night outside, there was no longer any object to be seen except for a flickering black shadow......
