Chapter 191: Rumors Spread
"Son, Tiangui, how did you get beaten like this?" Aunt Zheng Qi hugged Zheng Tiangui and cried bitterly.
"Miss Su, what's going on?"
The village chief had a long face, although he knew his son's virtue, but he also had to ask a question with a face in front of everyone.
"Want to know what's going on? Ask him. ”
Su Muling still sits, despising all beings. The torches burning in the courtyard reflected Su Muling's big eyes, which were extremely sharp!
"Tiangui, what's going on? Why did they hit you? You say? ”
Aunt Zheng Qi's subordinates to her son on weekdays, and she also turned a blind eye to her son's usual behavior, and at this time she was really distressed when she saw that her son was beaten and looked invisible.
"I ...... I ......"
Zheng Tiangui's entire face was swollen, his mouth was full of blood, half of his teeth were missing, and his tongue couldn't turn in it, where could he still speak?
"Let me tell you, this thief coveted my young lady, and climbed into my yard in the middle of the night, pried open the door of my young lady's room, and wanted to mistreat my young lady. Next time such scum falls into my hands, don't blame me for not sparing his life. ”
Pomegranate stepped forward and kicked again, Aunt Zheng Qi hugged Zheng Tiangui defenselessly, and the two of them were almost kicked over together.
Only then did everyone realize that it was the son of the village chief who wanted to insult Miss Su, and was caught and beaten half to death.
"You deserve it, dogs can't change their."
Zheng Tiangui's father-in-law, Uncle Qiu, scolded loudly on the side.
At the beginning, his daughter Qiu Xiang did not want to marry Zheng Tiangui, but had already told the son of a tea shop owner in the town, and he saw that he would be able to leave this poor place and live a good life after becoming married. Unexpectedly, on the eve of marriage, he was ruined by Zheng Tiangui, a beast, and had no choice but to withdraw from Qiu Xiang and marry Zheng Tiangui.
Uncle Qiu knows best what Qiu Xiang's life has been like over the years, but the Qiu family, who is also poor, has no ability to support his daughter. Now seeing that Zheng Tiangui has not changed his life and has fallen in love with the nobles from the city, Uncle Qiu can't wait to come forward and kill him.
Qiu Xiang, who was standing at the back of the crowd, saw through the crowd that her man was beaten and looked out of shape, and she was also ashamed to see people, and quietly returned home with her face covered.
"Really, as soon as Miss Su came here, she took our ideas to make money, didn't he ruin us when he did this kind of thing?"
"That is, if Miss Su leaves angrily, where are we going to make money?"
"A stinky fish has a pot of soup, and this kind of person has to be sent to the government to be locked up."
"That's it, report to the officer!"
"Report to the official, report to the official."
Almost everyone at a proposal began to shout, and the village chief and his wife panicked, and hurriedly knelt down for Su Muling:
"Miss Su, you don't care about villains, please don't report to the official for the sake of everyone being a fellow villager. It's all my fault, it's me who has no way to teach my son, so if you're angry, be angry with me. ”
Su Muling glanced at Zheng Tiangui, who was still humming on the ground, and shouted loudly: "If there is a next time, I will take his life!" ”
"Yes, yes." Su Muling got up and went back to the house, ignoring it again. Seeing this, all the villagers dispersed, and Uncle Zheng Qi and his wife finally got Zheng Tiangui home with the help of a few neighbors who had a good relationship.
Zheng Tiangui, who returned home, hummed and asked Uncle Zheng Qi to find a doctor for him.
Uncle Zheng Qi looked at his son's miserable condition, went to Lao Hu's house next door to borrow a ploughing cow, hung up a cart and rushed to the town overnight...... It was not until the evening of the second day that Zheng Tiangui returned to the village with the doctor he had invited from the city.
Zheng Tiangui was examined all over his body, and there were no internal injuries, no fractures, all of them were skin injuries.
The doctor prescribed medicine and asked Uncle Zheng Qi to go to the city to get the medicine, and asked for two taels of silver for the consultation fee. Where did Uncle Zheng Qi have the money to pay for the consultation, so he had to ask his daughter-in-law Qiu Xiang, Qiu Xiang had no money, Uncle Zheng Qi gritted his teeth and pried open the box where Zheng Tiangui had saved money, paid the consultation fee and drove the ox cart back to the doctor overnight.
Uncle Zheng Qi's family tossed there, and the Su family was not idle, and on the second day, Liushun pulled the fish to the city, and the pomegranate quietly stuffed two taels of silver into his hand, and secretly said a few words in his ear.
When Liushun came back in the evening, he brought back a big wolf dog in the car. The dog was muscular, fierce-eyed, with a chain around its neck, and barked at the people around him from time to time.
Su Muling heard the dog barking out to check, and said that it was strange, the big wolf dog who regarded everyone as an enemy saw Su Muling's meek death, drooped his ears, leaned down and let Su Muling touch its head.
Su Muling happily asked Si Feng to feed it with steamed buns, and before Si Feng walked up to it, the wolf dog whimpered and wanted to rush up, so frightened that Si Feng lost the steamed buns and turned around and ran.
Su Muling smiled and picked up the steamed bun, broke a few pieces and brought them to its mouth. Liu's mother, who was frightened on the side, hurriedly grabbed her and didn't let her approach.
"It's okay, it doesn't bite me."
After Su Muling finished speaking, he handed the steamed bun to his mouth. Sure enough, the wolf dog carefully picked up the steamed bun from her palm as if it was afraid of scaring Su Muling, and chewed it slowly. Then he carefully picked up another piece. The wolfdog's tongue bypassed Su Muling's hand, itching and numb.
Su Muling liked this humane wolf dog very much, and named it Bangbang.
Bang Bang is very smart, and after calling it a few times, it knows its name. Bangbang seemed to know that Su Muling was the owner of this family, and followed her every step of the way.
Liushun wanted to lead it to the door and tie it up, but he was almost bitten by a stick.
Su Muling didn't want to restrain it, so he asked Liushun to give the stick a chain and let it run wherever it wanted.
With Bangbang at home, Su Muling's life has been enriched a lot, and she takes Bangbang out for a walk in her spare time, which is extremely majestic.
But even if there is an extra layer of protection at home, Su Muling's ears are still not clean.
On this day, Liu's mother sat at the head of Su Muling's bed while embroidering a handkerchief and began to persuade her again: "Miss, don't blame the old slave for talking too much, this poor country is out of the people, Miss is kind enough to help them, but they don't know how to be grateful and still want to ...... Miss, we've been living here for more than a month, why don't we go back to Songjiang? ”
Su Muling leaned on the head of the bed and flipped through the book, and when she heard Mother Liu's words say this, she pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, and her face was full of indifference: "There are good people and bad people everywhere, this time I taught him a lesson, I forgive him and he doesn't have the courage to come again." ”
"The nature of the country is easy to change, so Zheng Tiangui didn't succeed this time, and I don't know what moths will come out next time. If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens. ”
"I'm not afraid, besides, there are sticks, and no one is coming in. Unless he is not afraid of death. ”
"Hey!"
Liu's mother also knows that the wolf dog guarding the house is stronger than people, but the heart of the villain is not just a trick of climbing over the wall in the middle of the night.
At night, it rained lightly, and Su Muling was worried about the stick sleeping at the door, and opened the door to let it in. Bangbang shook off the raindrops from his body. sniffed Su Muling's shoes and lay on the side of the bed.
In the middle of the night, the rain became heavier and heavier, accompanied by several deafening thunders. There were a few strange noises in the overwhelming rain, as if something had hit the roof, and the stick choked a few times, and after walking around the house, he lay down again.
Su Muling was so frightened that she curled up on the bed, not daring to sleep. After a night of heavy rain, a rainbow floated in the sky.
Early in the morning, Su Muling, who had just fallen asleep at dawn, heard an exclamation, followed by a sound of footsteps. Su Muling didn't know what was going on, so she quickly got dressed and opened the door, and in the yard, the girls and maids were there.
"Miss, this tree has been struck by lightning."
Su Muling walked a little farther away and looked towards the roof, a branch of the apricot tree in the yard broke from the root and was smashing on the roof of the main house, and the strange sound that came from here at night came from here. No wonder Bangbang didn't react.
"The branches have to be brought down, and the broken roof tiles have to be replaced." Liushun is full of yards looking for ladders.
"Don't look for it, there is a wooden ladder at home, but it has long been unusable in the sun and rain, and there is no replacement tile."
Wufu cleans up the yard every day, and he doesn't know what is at home.
"After breakfast, you can go to Brother Ye's house to have a look." They should have these must-haves in their home.
After breakfast, Ye Sanjin carried the ladder, and Wufu came back with a stack of tiles. It took the two of them a morning to finally clean and repair the roof.
Su Muling asked Sifeng to prepare wine and food, and Ye Sanjin ate. Ye Sanjin politely stayed.
The Su family's food was a feast for Ye Sanjin, and there were many things on the table that he had never seen before, let alone eaten. With Wufu as a companion, Xichun waited on the side, Ye Sanjin was so drunk that his legs were weak and he was sent home by Wufu.
In the distance, Zheng Tiangui, whose colorful marks on his face had not completely faded, were basking in the sun at the door, and he saw Ye Sanjin entering and leaving the Su family......
In the next few days, Su Muling found that the people in the village, especially the women, no longer greeted her warmly, but often pointed at her in groups of three or five and discussed.
After a few times, Su Muling stepped forward to ask for clarification, but those people deliberately dispersed after she approached, leaving her there alone.
Su Muling looked at their backs and instructed Pomegranate: "Go and inquire, what's going on." ”
After Pomegranate sent Su Muling home, he got into a house.
After a quarter of an hour of effort, the pomegranate came back with a puff, entered Su Muling's study, sat at the table and poured water into his stomach.
"What? Hear something nasty? ”
Su Muling had some guesses in his heart, put down the book and asked.
Pomegranate nodded vigorously. "Miss, let's go, the people in this village are really wolf-hearted, they ...... They even said Miss...... Ah! ”
The pomegranate's fist slammed into the desk, causing everything on the table to fly.
"What did they say?" Su Muling was silent and calm.
"Miss," they said...... They said that you had been abandoned by a large family and had come to the village...... He came to the village to harm the men of the village. Miss, I'm going to beat them all up, and then we'll go." ”
Pomegranate gritted her teeth, just waiting for Su Muling's order, she would definitely turn the whole village upside down.
"What did Sister-in-law Ye say?" Su Muling is the most generous to the Ye family on weekdays, and she wants to know the attitude of the Ye family's women.
"Miss, don't mention this surnamed Ye, there are a lot of people in the village who count her rubbing. It's really mud that can't support the wall, and the young lady has wasted so much effort. ”
Pomegranate smashed down with another punch, startling Su Muling, who was unprepared.
