Chapter 111: Jealousy
The fire in the third room came too strangely, and many of the people who went to fight the fire found that something was wrong.
It is impossible for normal firewood to burn so vigorously, but there was arson in the village, which made people's backs chill.
No one knows if if he accidentally offends that ruthless person, whether his own family will also end up in this fate, or even whether he will escape from the fire with his life.
Village Chief Liu explained the situation to several clan elders after dawn, and then went to Liu Ya to talk about it.
"Girl, this fire in your house, that house can't be lived in if it is not cleaned well. What are you going to do about this? ”
Chief Liu didn't mention his suspicions, obviously hoping to suppress the matter.
If there is no evidence, it will only bring shame to the village, and even affect some marriage events and work outside.
"The village chief's grandfather wants me to endure this?" Liu Ya asked bluntly.
Even if there is no evidence, anyone with a mind can figure out who is trying to harm their three rooms.
Not to mention how much enmity there is with the people in the old mansion, just because the people in the old mansion are worried about the property of the third room, they can do such a ruthless thing.
After all, that family almost killed a few mothers and sons in the third room several times, and there was no kind person.
"Girl, this ......"
Village Chief Liu sighed, habitually pretending to be dry tobacco, but did not light it.
"Grandpa Tang knows that your family has been wronged, but there is no evidence, even if you sue the government, it is useless. You should know how much impact some things will have on the village if they get out, so ......"
"Just take it as an accident."
Seeing that Village Chief Liu couldn't speak, Liu Ya calmly took over the conversation, but his eyes were looking in the direction of the old mansion, and he said with a little hatred: "Just like Grandpa Tang said, if there is no evidence, it is useless to make trouble with the government." ”
For example, Liu Wang's family almost lost two lives because of Liu Shusen, and Liu Ya abolished Liu Shusen to avenge Liu Wang's mother and son.
Many things are indeed without evidence, even if you know who the enemy is, you can't take revenge openly, but it doesn't mean that you can't put up with it.
Old mansion, our hatred has increased again, you wait.
The house was burned, and a lot of the cabbage in the yard could no longer be used because it had been smoked.
As for the things in the house, apart from the burnt quilts, there was not much loss.
Xiao Zhu was not at home, but Widow Xiao did not hesitate to temporarily take in the mother and son.
The busy days are still a few days away, and it is as if the fire did not happen, and the people in the third room are still busy with the previous business and repairing the house.
It's too late to build a new house this season, so Liu Ya can only try to ensure that the family can have a warm winter, and at the same time strengthen the courtyard wall.
And Zhao Xinyue only stayed in the old house for a day after arson, and then returned to the town, no one knew that the silver cloves she brought over to show off, as well as the last dozens of dollars, became wicker's private money.
The autumn harvest in each village has come to an end, and the crops in Yangliu Village are harvested faster than in previous years.
"Yes, I really didn't expect you to grow such a good medicinal herb. Although they are not valuable, they are all commonly used. ”
When Master Zhou learned that the medicinal materials could be harvested, he specially came to Yangliu Village, and after seeing the medicine field of Liu Ya, he was very appreciative and immediately signed a contract for the purchase of medicine.
"Girl, apart from these medicinal herbs, can you grow other medicinal herbs? For example, those that are more scarce will be much higher in price. ”
Although Master Zhou is a great benevolent person, he also needs the support of silver if he wants to do good deeds, and naturally he also has the nature of a businessman.
Liu Ya nodded and said: "Theoretically, I know the habits of some medicinal herbs, but the seeds of medicinal herbs are difficult to find, and not all medicinal herbs can be grown alive here in the Northland." ”
Master Zhou nodded, he also understood this truth.
"In this case, I'll ask the caravan to find you some other medicinal herb seeds when you go back, and you can try planting them. If you can grow it, maybe you can become a big herb merchant in the future, but this small village can't trap you little girl. ”
Master Zhou looked at Liu Ya, in addition to appreciation, there was also a trace of expectation and hope in his eyes.
If his daughter hadn't died......
Liu Ya didn't know what Master Zhou was thinking, she just felt that the way Master Zhou looked at her was very similar to Mrs. Zhou.
The kindness that belongs to the elders seems to be mixed with incomprehensible grief.
"By your kind words, if there is a day, I will invite you to drink." Liu Ya said with a smile.
Big herb dealers?
Although it is not what Liu Ya wants to do the most, engaging in the pharmaceutical industry is also what Liu Ya is willing to do.
"I wrote it down."
Master Zhou smiled kindly, and no longer continued to look at the medicine field, but walked in the direction of the third room, and said: "I was delayed on the road for a few days this time, but I was reprimanded by the old mother of the family, saying that I delayed her recognition of her granddaughter. I'm here today to talk to your mother about this. ”
Liu Ya smiled lightly, and recognized Mrs. Zhou as her grandmother, she did not reject it.
Because of the relationship in her previous life, Liu Ya was very kind to the title of grandma.
It's a pity that Mrs. Liu is the best, so that Liu Ya knows that grandmothers in this world are not necessarily loved, and it is good to recognize a godmother.
"Even if I recognize it, I don't trade at a loss. As the so-called brothers settle accounts, Master Zhou is not allowed to laugh at me when I see wealth. ”
Liu Ya chuckled and quipped, also showing her attitude.
Acknowledging relatives with Mrs. Zhou is just a private relationship, and it does not affect the cooperation between the two.
Liu Ya didn't doubt Master Zhou's character, but he didn't want to have a relationship with relatives, so Master Zhou deliberately took care of them.
Once money is involved, feelings are no longer pure, which is not what Liu Ya wants.
"It's nature."
Master Zhou smiled heartily and told Liu Ya about what he had seen and heard about going out this time, which was also an opportunity for Liu Ya to understand the outside world.
The wicker who had just come back from hunting pigweed, unconsciously touched the flower on her head, which was also 'given' to her by Zhao Xinyue, and there were many little girls in the village who were envious.
Wicker also loves beauty at this age, but he is afraid that the beads will be lost, so he has to touch it many times a day to make sure.
But when he saw Liu Ya and the rich Master Zhou walking together, jealousy flashed in Wicker's eyes.
"Cheap girl, you seduce men all day long, how could Xiao Zhu be blind to you!"
Wicker secretly poked and scolded Liu Ya, like Zhao Xinyue, she also likes Xiao Zhu.
There are many young offspring in the village, but they do not intermarry with the same surname, and the teenagers surnamed Yang are not outstanding at present.
It's Xiao Zhu, who is not only good-looking, but also literate after learning the craft, no wonder it will make many girls excited.
"Zhao Xinyue, that useless thing, why didn't he burn you to death! With such a slut as you, you are not worthy of Xiao Zhu at all! ”
Wicker said viciously, until Liu Ya and Master Zhou entered the courtyard of the third room, Wicker hurriedly walked home.
