Chapter 11 Return to Ninghai County

The shopkeeper was angry, but the woman was also full of grievances.

In the past, the king's shopkeeper gave more money, but he always either stayed for one or two nights, or simply did not come to the money.

This time, the shopkeeper lived in their house for a small month and a half, but the silver he gave was only half of the silver he brought every time he brought it in the past, plus these days the shopkeeper Wang has been staying in the house like an uncle, and his outer room was directly brought to him into the bedroom for meals, which made the woman's father and sister-in-law extremely uncomfortable.

The shopkeeper felt that he was very kind to the woman's family, but the woman's father, mother, brother and sister-in-law felt that they had helped the shopkeeper Wang raise three children, which could be described as a high degree of hard work.

Everyone only thinks about what they have paid and what others owe them, and it is no longer normal to have conflicts.

When Meng Zhen came over, the shopkeeper Wang was furious because of the woman's complaints.

Although the woman did not refute anything, the woman's father, mother, brother and sister-in-law, as well as the three children born to the woman, were very dissatisfied with the king's shopkeeper.

Compared with the shopkeeper Wang, who only appeared occasionally, whether it was the woman or the three children born to the woman, they paid more attention to the woman's father, mother, brother and sister-in-law.

As a result, the shopkeeper will inevitably fall into the embarrassing situation of being isolated and helpless, and only he is an "outsider".

Meng Hao saw him scold the woman out of the room, saw the woman wiping her tears and went to squeeze into a room with her two daughters, and saw the woman's father, mother, brother and sister-in-law with fierce eyes, staring at the shopkeeper Wang who was still angry in the room through the window.

The shopkeeper had probably been accustomed to the obedience and flattery that the family had given him in the past years, so he didn't notice at all that the woman's father, mother, brother and sister-in-law had cast a fierce glance at him when he hadn't noticed.

Thinking about it, you should also know that if you can keep your family wealth in such troubled times and live without worrying about food and clothing, this family is definitely not a master to mess with.

The king's shopkeeper thought that they could live without food and clothing by relying on him, but it was indeed a bit one-sided.

Maybe he did give money to the family, but to be able to keep that money, the family also put a lot of effort into it.

Now he hid in his mother's house in his outer room in order to escape the pursuit, and he had already lost in momentum, but he didn't have this consciousness, and he was still there like an uncle, shouting at others, and it was strange that the family could see him pleasing to the eye.

If it weren't for her rushing back to take care of her younger brother, Meng Zhen would have wanted to give the shopkeeper Wang more time, so that he could have a good feel for what it means to be evil and retribution, and what it means to betray relatives and leave.

She squatted on the beams of the firewood house of this family, and stayed up until everyone, including the shopkeeper Wang, fell asleep, and then she walked out of the firewood room lightly and walked to the north room of the east wing where the shopkeeper Wang was.

In order not to alarm the few half-sized children sleeping in the south room, Meng Hao raised the half-hidden wooden window.

She jumped into the room through the window, and then walked straight to the king's shopkeeper, who was snoring slightly, with a dagger in hand.

What she didn't expect was that at the moment when the dagger in her hand was about to cut through the skin of the shopkeeper Wang, the shopkeeper opened his eyes very abruptly.

Through the dim light of the oil lamp on the table, seeing the thin figure standing by the kang, the shopkeeper Wang was frightened and half of his soul was gone.

He was awakened by the urge to urinate.

Because he was in a bad mood, he drank a small half jar of wine alone at night, and after getting drunk, he fell asleep groggily, and after sleeping for a while, he was awakened by the urge to urine.

He never dreamed that he had come to Qingping County, and those guys who wanted to avenge Meng Qingze could still accurately find him out, so that he could not escape.

If he knew that he would be found by these killing embryos, the shopkeeper Wang would definitely not let himself get drunk carelessly.

He felt remorse, but his body subconsciously turned over violently, dodging the knife in Meng Hao's hand.

It is not accurate to say that it is dodging, the shopkeeper Wang did save a dog's life, but the dagger in Meng Hao's hand still left a shallow wound on his neck.

The shopkeeper Wang was so frightened that he subconsciously grabbed the wine jar on the kang table and threw it at Meng Hao, while not forgetting to tear his throat and shout.

Meng Hao reacted quickly, and the moment Shopkeeper Wang opened his eyes, she had already accelerated the speed at which the dagger fell.

Although she couldn't click the shopkeeper because the shopkeeper flashed fast enough, when the shopkeeper went to get the wine jar, Meng Zhen pulled out her sword very quickly, and pierced the heart of the shopkeeper Wang.

The crisp sound of the wine jar falling to the ground and the half-way shout of "help" by the shopkeeper Wang alarmed several half-sized children sleeping in the south room of the east wing.

They slept so deeply that they did not hear what the king's treasurer was shouting, and they did not immediately regain their senses.

Several children got up from the kang in a daze, rubbing their eyes as they fumbled to get their coarse cloth clothes that they had placed next to their pillows.

Some people are even complaining that the king's shopkeeper is a demon, "We can't eat, he drinks wine and eats meat every day, so it's to blame us for not serving him well, and if he doesn't go well, he will go crazy!" ”

"That's it, he scolded our aunt and cried today." A little boy who looked at him who was only about ten years old echoed his brother angrily.

Meng Hao heard the sound of rustling and muttering coming from there, and the movements in his hands suddenly sped up a little.

She drew her sword, and the king's treasurer fell backwards with his chest clutched. There was a muffled bang, and the king's shopkeeper fell on top of the futon.

"You, you are..." In the middle of the words, the shopkeeper Wang stared at a pair of dead eyes and died, and Meng Hao took advantage of the dim light of the oil lamp in the room to quickly open the cabinet and took out the bag of silver that the shopkeeper Wang brought here.

She hung the heavy bag of money around her waist, and quickly climbed through the window and out of the room.

At this time, the half-sized children sleeping in the south room of the east wing had also hastily put on their clothes and straw sandals, and they took oil lamps and walked towards the north room of the east wing where there was movement.

By the time the half-grown children screamed because of the dead man, Meng Zhen had already climbed over the wall and walked out of their yard.

She didn't stay in the town any longer, and after leaving enough money in the inn's room, Meng Hao left the town with her own little baggage.

The king's treasurer is dead, and she can finally go back to worship her parents.

***

Three days later, at noon, in the far suburbs of Qingping County, Meng Zhen staggered and struggled in the direction where Qianhua Mountain was located.

After coming out of the town where the shopkeeper Wang was hiding, Meng Hao originally wanted to go directly through Qianhua Mountain, take the shortest route, and go back to Ninghai County as quickly as possible to worship his parents.

However, her good luck seemed to have been used up by her in the past few days.
