Chapter 4: Embarrassed

Cao Ang's stick exerted enough strength, although his body was weak at the moment, but if this hard blow was solid, the man would not die, and he would be unconscious for at least a few hours.

Cao Ang jumped high, holding the wooden stick in both hands, seeing the back of the man's head close in front of him, and his heart was excited: "If I defeat you and deal with that woman again, the hope of escape is much greater." ”

However, at this critical moment, the man suddenly quickened his pace and ran forward, just in time to avoid Cao Ang's attack. Cao Ang's offensive was old, and it was too late to retreat, so he slammed a stick on the ground, making a dull knocking sound, and the powerful counterforce pulled the wound on his back, and a hot pain came, and I don't know if there was bleeding again.

The man was extremely fast, and when Cao Ang made a move, he had already run more than ten steps, leaned over slightly, picked up a three- or four-year-old milk doll, hugged him in his arms, and then looked behind him. I just watched Cao Ang get up slowly, his face full of pain.

"What are you doing?" The man's face was as disgusted as ever, and he looked at Cao Ang with puzzlement.

Cao Ang's back was in unbearable pain, but he was thinking of a plausible excuse in his heart, and he was silent for a while. The man was very strange, and walked towards Cao Ang with the little dot in his arms, walked to his side, and saw that there were patches of blood oozing from his back, his expression changed slightly, and said, "What are you doing?" How did the wound burst? ”

Cao Ang looked at the man who was close at hand, and the urge to do it again swelled in his heart, but reason told him that this was not a good opportunity at this moment, and he was holding a young and lovely baby in his arms, and it would be too much of a sin to accidentally hurt the little doll.

Cao Ang's silence made the man impatient, he didn't have a good impression of Cao Ang, but at this moment, Cao Ang burst out of the wound, afraid that he would cause trouble for him again, and his mood was suddenly worse.

On the ground, the little little man in the man's arms stretched out his tender arm, pointed to the grass on Cao Ang's right, and shouted in a milky voice: "Long worm, long worm." ”

The wooden stick in Cao Ang's hand subconsciously swept over, and the man also stepped up. Sure enough, I saw a long insect with a black body and as thick as a child's arm writhing its ugly body and swimming quickly.

When the man saw that the long worm was far away and difficult to catch, he immediately showed regret. At this time, Cao Ang smiled and said: "Shi Cai saw the long insect passing in front of him, and he was afraid that he would hurt people, so he hit him with a wooden stick, but he didn't expect this evil animal to move quickly, and he didn't hurt it, but broke his own wounds." ”

The man glanced at Cao Ang contemptuously, picked up the white porridge with his right hand, and brought it to Xiao Budian's mouth, who shrugged his little nose, and hurriedly held the bowl with both hands, and put his little mouth up, and ate the porridge with a big mouth.

Cao Ang had always thought that this porridge was poisonous, and when he saw this, his heart sank, he looked at the pink little doll nervously, stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Budian, and hurriedly asked, "Is this the bowl of porridge that the lady brought me before?" ”

The man was looking at the little thing in his arms lovingly, and when he saw this, he looked at Cao Ang coldly and said, "Aren't you used to eating white porridge, why do you still have to grab it with children now?" ”

Cao Ang couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, looking at the man's contemptuous and disgusted expression, it seemed that he really thought that he was planning to grab white porridge with such a little bit, and suddenly the urge to run up and beat him up fiercely swelled.

The man choked Cao Ang, hugged the small thing in his arms away from Cao Ang, and then pouted and said, "Your bowl has already been cold, and I have eaten it, this is a new bowl." ”

Cao Ang looked at the man when he heard this, and saw that his expression did not seem to be lying, and the whole person did not look uncomfortable, so he suddenly relaxed a little in his heart, and immediately secretly wondered: "Could it be that I am wrong to blame that woman?" ”

The man looked at the little little one in his arms and stretched out his pink and tender little tongue, licked the rice grains in the bowl, and then took the bowl, and said to Cao Ang with disgust: "Most of the rice grain at home has been lost because of you, such a fat long worm is enough to eat several meals, and you are easy to let go, look at you like a dog, I didn't expect it to be a thing that is not enough to succeed and more than to fail, hurry up and go back with me, don't make trouble for people anymore." ”

Cao Ang was panting heavily, this man was five big and three thick, but his tongue was very poisonous, and he was very angry when he spoke.

The man was disdainful of Cao Ang's grievances, shook the little thing in his arms, and asked with a pleasant face, "Xiao Qin'er, why did you run out?" ”

The little thing burped, the pink and tender little tongue licked along the lips, and seemed to be still reminiscing about the deliciousness of the white porridge, listening to the man's inquiry, a pair of watery eyes blinked twice, and suddenly fell rolling tears, pulling the man's clothes with both hands, and crying pitifully: "Our family's Bi is dead." ”

The man's body stiffened, and distress, helplessness, and disgust suddenly appeared on his face, with an extremely complicated look, and he coaxed the little thing in his arms with his head stuffy, and walked away quickly.

Cao Ang heard it behind him, and an extremely strange emotion rose in his heart, and he followed behind silently, but the words with a crying voice echoed in his mind, and his expression suddenly changed unpredictably, and finally turned into a long sigh.

"This time it's probably really a villain." Cao Ang probably guessed the reason for the whole thing, and suddenly remembered that after Cao Cao was drunk, he cried bitterly and told the past of killing Lu Bohao's family by mistake because of suspicion, Cao Ang couldn't help but feel cold, looked at the man who was striding in front of him, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: "Fortunately, I didn't make a move, otherwise I would repay virtue with resentment, what face would I have to survive?" ”

In order to confirm the conjecture in his heart, Cao Ang quickly caught up with the man and asked directly: "Last night, Brother Tai and that lady discussed slaughtering the family early this morning?" ”

The man's body froze, his face showed embarrassment and helplessness, and he immediately glared at Cao Ang fiercely, and said, "Taught you to listen?" ”

Cao Ang took a deep breath, nodded with shame, and said, "I accidentally heard the conversation between Brother Tai and that lady......

"Hmph," the man turned his head and quickened his pace, but he didn't know whether he was annoyed or angry, or he was extremely unwilling, and said: "If you hear it, I won't say more to you, you yourself will find the loser's girl to say, it's worth fifteen hundred dollars, it's just a waste of money, it's all caused by you." ”

Cao Ang fell silent.

It turned out that the woman was going to kill only the pigs of the family, not herself. She had little food left in her own house, and this head could have been sold for a good price, 1,500 yuan was enough to exchange for six or seven stone of grain, so the man was resolutely unwilling to slaughter it, but the woman insisted on her opinion.

Why did you kill Biao? Cao Ang remembered that the woman was quite respectful to him, and he did not hesitate to take out the porridge that was left in the family for his own consumption. Kill Biao, probably because of himself.

Cao Ang was ashamed in his heart, others did everything to provide for him, but he speculated arbitrarily with the heart of a villain, and always felt that others were uneasy and kind. He is really a villain, the gentleman is frank, and the villain is a relative, this statement is true.

With a turn of thought, Cao Ang gradually calmed down the shame in his heart, and secretly thought: "Yitou is not expensive, but with her poor family, she has done her best to do this, and this friendship is deeper than the daughter given to me by a rich family." I have never known him, and this woman has asked for such hospitality, no matter what, but if she teaches me what she can, she will not refuse. If I can't do anything, I have to repay it. ”

Cao Ang and the man were silent all the way, only the little one choked up from time to time, as if he was still feeling sad about the death of the family.

Soon the two returned to the front of the house, and it happened that the woman was looking outside, and the man saw Cao Ang behind him, and entered the house with Xiao Bu nodding his head. The woman didn't know why, and looked at the man blankly.

Cao Ang stepped forward, bowed deeply to the woman, and said, "I am really grateful for Mrs. Xiameng's hospitality. ”

The woman was confused by Cao Ang's abrupt move, and dodged again and again. There was a grunt of dissatisfaction in the room, and then he seemed to be whispering to the little thing.

Cao Ang straightened up and glanced at the woman slightly. She looks like twenty-three or four, a burlap dress is slightly shabby, a wooden hairpin is pinned to her head, her body is not fat or thin, she is not slender, she can only say that she looks very strong, her face is not exquisite, but her facial features are neat, she is by no means an ugly person, but her skin is very rough.

The woman was very cramped, a touch of blush appeared on her face, and after a while, she said with a little caution: "The little woman's husband's surname is Du, and her real surname is Wei. Dare to ask Mr. Gao's name? ”

Cao Ang didn't dare to take it big, so he hurriedly said: "In Cao Xuan, Xiaqiao County, Cao Ziang." Although he understood that he had misunderstood this woman, but now that he was in the rivers and lakes, it was better not to use his real name, so as not to cause some unnecessary trouble.

Wei obviously didn't have much knowledge, and when he heard Cao Ang report his home, he muttered to himself in confusion: "What kind of place is Qiaoxian?" ”

At this time, the little one suddenly ran out, regardless of his mother, walked on his short legs, swayed and ran straight to Cao Ang's side, looked up at Cao Ang, and said in a milky voice: "My family's Bi is dead, does Mr. know Bi?" It's just a stinky and smelly Bi, my Bi is even more stinky, and the meat is not delicious, Mr. will definitely not eat my Bi, right? ”

Cao Ang looked at the little thing's big eyes and blinked, the small appearance was really cute, and he couldn't help but feel love in his heart, squatted down and pinched his smooth and tender little face, before he could speak, the man came out of it and said to Wei: "Qian County is in Xuzhou, it is the county under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou Xiaopei, far away from us, what do you care about." ”

Cao Ang rolled his eyes and thought, "This guy probably can't tell the difference between Xiao Pei and Pei Guo, and Shengsheng changed my Cao clan to his hometown." ”

Webster looked at the man questioningly, then at Cao Ang shyly, as if asking him for confirmation.

Seeing this, the man was very dissatisfied, glared at Cao Ang, and shouted, "Isn't what I said wrong? Then Cao Cao is a native of Qian County, Qian County is in Peiguo, Pei Guo is also called Xiao Pei, Xiao Pei is in Xuzhou, isn't this Xuzhou Qiao County? What's wrong? ”

After speaking, he suddenly looked at Cao Ang, looked very unfriendly, and asked, "Cao Cao is from Qian County, and you are also from Qian County." Cao Cao's surname is Cao, your name is Cao Xu, and your surname is Cao. Could it be that the two of you are actually our own family? ”

Cao Ang looked at the man who was showing off to Webster, and seemed to be extremely satisfied with his knowledge, so he couldn't help but roll his eyes and didn't defend himself, and let him arrange it randomly.

At this time, the little little Qin'er hugged Cao Ang's calf and asked again in a milky voice: "Sir, will you eat my family's babes?" ”

Wei immediately blushed, and hurriedly dragged Xiao Budian, his face was full of embarrassment, his hands stirred his clothes, and he gritted his teeth and said to Cao Ang: "Sir, don't blame, the concubine saw that Mr. was traumatized and very weak, and my small family didn't have much nourishment, only the family raised some oil and water, so she thought about slaughtering Mr. to make up for his body, but in fact, he didn't mean to insult Mr., and I ask Mr. for forgiveness." ”

Cao Ang sighed in his heart when he heard this, and said secretly: "It turns out that she was afraid that I would be humiliated by eating Bi, so she did everything possible not to teach me to know, and secretly killed Bi. At that moment, he was deeply embarrassed, and said sincerely: "Madame's words are broken, I met Madame Pingshui, and I am grateful to Mrs. Pingshui for taking him in." Mrs. tried her best to entertain this time, killing the only one in the family, and she only had gratitude in her heart, how could she be ashamed of it. ”

Webster's uneasiness dissipated slightly, and the man snorted and said, "Even if you know each other, you are talking about human words." Webster glared at him in displeasure, and the man shut up.

"This is my neighbor, surnamed Zhang Mingqiang, not bad-hearted, but what he says makes people not like to hear it." Webster introduces Cao Ang to the man.

Cao Ang nodded, thinking to himself that what this guy said was not just something that people didn't like to hear? It's just infuriating. But there's nothing to worry about with this guy, and it's not wrong for him to feel sorry for his own things, so he clenches his fists at him at the moment.

Zhang Qiang snorted twice, and reluctantly clenched his fists in return under Wei's gaze.

Suddenly, Cao Ang crossed a picture in his mind, and for a moment, a mysterious smile appeared on his face, he picked up Xiao Qin'er, scratched his little nose, and said with a smile: "Mr. has made you something to eat, do you want to eat it?" ”
