The middle-aged man cried for a long time before he gritted his teeth and said, "Liu'er, don't worry, I will take revenge for your revenge!" If that Su Laocai really opens the joint and sentences the Wu family's capital crime to a living crime, when she comes out, I will hack her to death with an axe! Then I will go to your grave and kill myself, and die with you!" ”

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man threw himself on the grave and cried.

In this scene, the crying was really earth-shattering. Even Xiao Jiading, who was hiding behind the boulder, couldn't help but feel gloomy for him.

After crying for a while, the middle-aged man gradually stopped speaking, still lying on the grave, crying: "Liu'er, you must save Yunxia in the spirit of the sky, I can die, Yunxia can't die." She's your only flesh and blood. It's a pity that I don't have the skills to find someone to help you. If you have a spirit in the sky, teach me and let me think of a way to save Yunxia's life, that is, exchange my life for her life, and I will ...... willingly! ”

The middle-aged man cried darkly, and in the haze, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be someone around him, so he turned his head over, but his eyes were already full of tears, and he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly, so he wiped it, and finally saw a young scholar in a robe. He was looking at him with his hands behind his back.

Of course, this person is Xiao Jiading.

"Are you ......?" The middle-aged man asked, sobbing.

"I was entrusted by a friend to pay tribute to the Liu family."

The middle-aged man looked down at some of the other offerings and incense paper on the tomb, and suddenly understood that he was the one who had paid homage here before. Hurriedly got up from the grave and looked at Xiao Jiading, he was a farmer, and in front of a scholar like Xiao Jiading, he immediately became a little at a loss. It's just that Nuno said: "Thank you, thank you!" Xie Lu, thank you for coming to pay tribute to Liu'er......, ah no, Liu's ......"

Xiao Jiading said: "Are you familiar with the Liu family?" ”

"Yes......, no, it's not ......, I'm just a village, nothing else."

Xiao Jiading knew that he had concerns, so he said: "Let me tell you the truth, I am the executive of the Yamen Kang County Order, and my name is Xiao Jiading." I came today to pay tribute to her mother by Miss Su Yunxia Su. She thought that there must be no one to pay her mother's respects, so she entrusted me. I can't imagine that she still has you, a fellow countryman, who remembers her. ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately became excited, took two steps forward, trembled his hands, and said, "Yunxia......, she ......, is she in prison?" ”

"It's not good, no one in the Su family cares about her, and they didn't spend money to do something for him, so she was put on the most powerful prison box bed, which is very painful."

The middle-aged man held his head and squatted on the ground, whining and crying. Suddenly, he thought that since this Zhiyi could accept Su Yunxia's commission to pay tribute, he should be a kind person, and maybe he could help Su Yunxia. So, he immediately stood up, wiped a handful of snot and tears with the back of his hand, and said with a cry: "You ......, you are the deacon of Kang County, then you will definitely be able to help her!" I beg you to help her and make her suffer less. I ......, I don't have any money now, and when I beat the grain after autumn, I ......, I take half of the rice ......, ah no, thank you for all the rice! Good no good? Please! ”

Xiao Jiading asked: "Who is she?" ”

"I'm ......, I'm just a ...... of her village"

"You're not telling the truth, in that case, I'm sorry, I can't help you! Leave! With that, Xiao Jiading turned around to leave.

The middle-aged man hurriedly chased after him and bowed his hand: "Brother Xiao, I'm sorry, I'm ......, I'll tell you the truth, please help Yunxia, a hard-working child." ”

Xiao Jiading stood with his hands behind his back and looked at him: "What's your name?" What is the relationship with the Liu family? ”

"My name is Cai Laoshan......," the middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I am from the same village as the Liu family, the two families are very close, and they grew up together, and she once said that she would marry me in the future." I was very happy and said that I would marry no one but her. However, when we grew up, I heard that a businessman surnamed Su had taken a fancy to her and wanted to take her as his fifth aunt......"

Xiao Jiading said curiously: "Then Su Laocai has five wives and concubines? ”

"There are nine rooms! At that time, there were only four rooms, and I wanted to make Liu Er the fifth aunt. ”

Xiao Jiading smiled bitterly: "No wonder this Su Laocai doesn't care about the Liu family and his daughter Su Yunxia at all, these nine wives and concubines should have given him a lot of children, right?" ”

"Twenty-seven in all! Not including those who are secretly born outside! ”

"You know him well."

Cai Laoshan said hatefully: "I squatted outside their house without any trouble, of course I understand!" That Su Lao Caiyuan and his wife are poisonous women. I heard that Su Laocai had a small capital at the beginning, although he was a business material, but he didn't have much capital to do a big business, and after marrying this lady, he relied on a large amount of dowry she brought as the capital, which gradually became bigger, so he was very indulgent to Yuan's wife. The beating of the other concubines was just a real one. ”

Xiao Jiading suddenly understood, why did Su Laocai care so much about this original partner, it turned out to be the foundation of his family.

Cai Laoshan continued: "He often beats Liu'er, I listen to it in my ears, I listen to it in my heart, I ...... it, I hate myself for not having the ability to save Liuer......"

Speaking of this, Cai Laoshan squatted down in pain, holding his head and crying.

Xiao Jiading said: "Don't be too sad, what's going on?" You start from the beginning! ”

"Hmm......" Cai Laoshan nodded, wiping a handful of tears and snot, "The night before Liu Er entered Su's house, she secretly cried and asked me to go to the grove outside the village, telling me that her father and mother were going to make her a concubine for Su Laocai's family, and if my family could come up with the same amount of money at this time, maybe she could marry me." I was very anxious when I heard this, so I asked her to wait for me, and I immediately went to beg my father and mother to go to Liu's house to talk about matchmaking, but my father said that the family had no money, and if I asked my relatives to talk about matchmaking, I could only sell land or plough cattle, which would never work. That's why you can't give me a wife yet. I will wait a few years, and no matter how much I kneel down and beg, I will not agree. I cried and told Liu Er about the result. Liu Er cried very sadly, and then, she hugged me and said, let me take her away, take her to elope, no matter where I go, she will go with me to ......, alas! ”

Cai Laoshan kept beating his head hard, banging, and his expression was extremely painful.

Xiao Jiading said: "If you are happy with each other but can't be together, then elopement is not a solution." ”

Cai Laoshan didn't expect Xiao Jiading to say this, so he looked up at him gratefully in surprise, beat his head hard, and said bitterly: "At that time, if someone persuaded me like this, I wouldn't regret it for the rest of my life!" ”

"You didn't promise?"

Cai Laoshan nodded sadly: "I ......, I felt eloped at that time...... It's a shame, my father and mother only have one son, if I elope with her, what will my father and mother do in the future......? I said, let me think about it, think about it for a night. She cried, covered her face and turned around and ran. ”

Xiao Jiading sighed and said, "You are really not a man!" The eldest girl offered to elope with you, but you still have to think about it. I wonder if you really have feelings for her! ”

Cai Laoshan stood up all of a sudden and said loudly: "Of course I have true feelings for her!" I could die for her! ”

"You can die for her, but you won't elope for her! What a joke! ”

Cai Laoshan wilted all of a sudden, like a frosted eggplant, and squatted on the ground with his head in his hands. Crying and said: "I regretted it at night, I wanted to go with her, I finally looked forward to the dawn, I ran to her house to find her, to take her away, but after asking, I found out that when the sky was not yet dawn, the Su family had already sent someone to pick her up." It turned out that she had already learned the news, so she came to me at night to elope with me, but I didn't promise at that time......"

Cai Laoshan pulled his hair in pain and began to cry again.

Xiao Jiading said again: "You can find a chance to take her away later!" ”

"There's no chance left, and once the opportunity is lost, it's gone." Cai Laoshan sighed sadly, "I thought so at the time, so after Liu'er was taken into their house, I stayed near their house every day, hoping to wait for Liu'er to come out, and then run away with her, but I waited for many months, although she often went out, but every time there were servants and maids around me, I didn't have a chance to talk to her at all, and I didn't dare to show up, for fear that the Su family would find out." Finally, one time, the maid next to her went to the thatched house, and she was the only one on the street, and I immediately ran over to her and told her that I wanted her to go with me, and we eloped. However, she cried and shook her head, saying ......, saying that she was pregnant, and since she was already a member of the Su family, she couldn't marry someone else, I said I didn't care, but she said she cared! I also want to say that her maid came out, and I had to walk away. ”

One woman doesn't have two husbands? Xiao Jiading sighed secretly in his heart, ancient women really didn't understand that they took chastity so seriously.

Cai Laoshan continued: "I thought she was pregnant with a child and it was inconvenient to elope, so I waited until she gave birth to her daughter Su Yunxia." I found another opportunity to tell her to take her away, and if she couldn't bear the child, then take the child with her. She still didn't say yes. Later, I heard that Su Laocai's Yuan mate often beat and scolded those concubines, especially Liu Er. Because Liu Er is the most beautiful among Su Laocai's concubines. I often stood outside the wall of their backyard, and sometimes I could hear Liu'er screaming and pleading for being beaten. and the crying of her daughter Su Yunxia. I thought, if she suffers like this in the Su family, she should agree to leave with me, right? Later, I found two more opportunities to talk to her and asked her to take her daughter with me, but she cried and refused. said that the hardships of this life are fate, and she has already accepted her fate. That's when I was in complete despair. But I didn't expect that she not only suffered, but was also stabbed to death with scissors by the poisonous woman of Su Laocai's family! If I had known that Lu Dao was like this, I would have used my strength to snatch her away! ”

Yes, there is no regret medicine in the world! People are so cheap, only when they lose, do they know that the Tao is precious.

Speaking of this, Cai Laoshan looked at Xiao Jiading, suddenly knelt in front of him, kowtowed, and said, "Brother Xiao, please, save Yunxia, a hard-working child!" Liu'er is such a flesh and blood, I can't save Liu'er, if I can't save her child, I, I don't want to live......"

Xiao Jiading looked at him for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay to save her, but you have to lose your freedom for two years!" - Would you like to? ”

"I do! Not to mention two years of freedom, even if it costs my life, I am willing! ”

"That's good!" Xiao Jiading nodded, "You get up, I'll tell you what to do!" ”
