Chapter 29: Even if you sell yourself, you can't sell your wife
But this is not the time to scold his mother, he regrets that he didn't bring a little guy to this courtyard because he suspected that someone was in trouble.
"Anyone? Someoneβ"
He shouted loudly, very panicked, at this moment he was in this deep pit, and this was the backyard, I was afraid that the front yard would not hear his cries for help.
He is also glorious in this life, from a poor talent who has nothing, to now holding a huge family business, in the Qian family, he still has many blessings to enjoy, many wishes have not yet appeared, is it possible that today's retribution is coming, he is going to drown in a foul-smelling tank?
Outside the thatched house, a person walked lightly, looked at it, and quietly retreated.
The figure quickly returned to the east compartment of the front yard, and Yun Jiao was waiting in front of the door with a solemn face.
Pu Jia's hands were about to twist into twists, and when she saw Gu Jiaozi coming back, she rushed up, whispering and urgently: "What's wrong!" β
"Got it!" Gu Yizi smiled happily: "That guy's two feet are hanging on the edge of the thatched tank, and they haven't completely fallen yet, but I'm afraid they won't last long." β
Yun Jiao's clenched ten fingers were instantly released, and the strings in her heart were no longer tight, and she asked softly, "Is everything arranged outside?" β
"It's okay," Gu Yizi stepped forward and whispered: "The little one told his two brothers, as long as he has two legs, they can dispose of him at will, but they can't take his life, and his two brothers should go." β
"Hmm," Yun Jiao nodded.
It's not that she doesn't want the dog thief's life, but her grandmother is still here, and if her granddaughter's aunt walks ahead of her, won't she seem even more blessed?
"Go and call my cousin, and then go to the garden to pick some fresh flowers to plant," Yun Jiao ordered, and went back to her grandmother's house.
Qian Xianglan arrived in a moment, these few evenings, she often came to see her grandmother, and also chatted with Yun Jiao, the sisters were much more lively, not as unfamiliar as before.
The two chatted in the room and arranged flowers, so happy.
That Shen Changdong was still hanging in the thatched tank and struggling at the moment, there was no way to call for help, he planned to be self-reliant, he wanted to raise his head with the strength of his abdomen, and dragged the wooden planks covered on both sides of the thatched tank with both hands, and then climbed up.
If he had been younger, he might have given it a try.
But now that he is old, and he has been pampered in the Qian family for many years, he has long lost the strength of his youth, and after trying a few times, not only did he not succeed in turning over, but his feet slipped and his head fell directly into the pit.
"My life is on the ......"
A thought came out of his mind, and he had already planted himself in the vat.
He gritted his teeth, feeling that the foul-smelling feces drilled straight into his eyes, nose and ears, not to mention the taste, he wanted to breathe, but his eyes were full of turbid feces, and he was about to pour it into his mouth when he opened his mouth, how could he dare to breathe?
I suddenly remembered that there is a path to the outside of this latrine, in order to facilitate cleaning, the outside of the thatched tank should be shallow, if you hold your breath and swim out, you may be able to save your life.
But I can't say for sure, the thatched tank outside is now full, and it's not certain whether it can survive.
But now he couldn't help it, so he had to grit his teeth and close his eyes, swim to the edge of the tank, and grope with both hands.
Luckily, I was able to find the path in two clicks.
He struggled to poke his head out, opened his mouth and inhaled sharply, and the fecal water that he couldn't care about at the moment flowed into his mouth, and he stabbed down with a fierce breath and swam along the path.
Along the way, it can be regarded as overcoming obstacles, and finally successfully swam to the thatched tank outside.
β¦β¦
There were two brothers guarding the grass outside, looking no more than fifteen or sixteen, the two of them were generally handsome and of the same age.
The big one is called Stone Mountain, and the small one is called Stone Sea.
The two brothers are from Zhuangzi outside the city of Laizhou.
Their father was a bricklayer, diligent and honest, known as Shi Laohan, and his mother Li guarded a few acres of thin land, with his two brothers, the original family lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the life was more than enough than the above, and it was also rich.
After two years, the two brothers married their daughters-in-law and gave birth to several children, and this day can be regarded as thriving.
But who would have expected that just when the family was getting more and more hopeful, something big happened.
The Qian family's house in Zhuangzi was too old, so they thought about tearing it down and rebuilding it.
Please among these bricklayers, there is this Shi Laohan.
Shen Changdongping didn't go to Zhuangzi in Japan, and he didn't bother with such trivial matters.
But it was also fate, it was a spring day, and Shen Changdong was at home in his spare time, so he said that he would go to Zhuangzi to take a look, and he should be in the green.
Coincidentally, on that day, Shi Laohan's wife Li wrapped some shepherd's cabbage-stuffed dumplings at home, and in the spring, she ate a shepherd's cabbage dumplings, known as "a mouthful of freshness", Li took some of them, and let Shi Laohan and a group of old guys who worked together also try it.
This was originally a normal thing, but the bad thing was that he bumped into Shen Changdong that day.
He looked at this Li family's appearance and was not outstanding, he could barely be regarded as a delicate person, only a pair of big breasts on his chest, which attracted people's attention.
Shen Changdong felt that the Li family was a strange commodity to live in, so he moved his mind at that time, and his heart was itching, but because of the presence of Shi Laohan and a group of people doing the work, he had to forcibly endure it.
When it was time for dinner, Shen Changdong deliberately stayed, and specially ordered a table of good wine and food to entertain those bricklayers.
The bricklayers were flattered and did not even dare to say so.
Shen Changdong was not in a hurry, so he only invited everyone to eat and drink.
After three rounds of drinking, some of the restrained bricklayers let go, and the atmosphere finally became warm, some people talked and laughed, and some people talked about meat.
Shen Changdong took the opportunity to talk about someone in Laizhou City who sold his wife and daughter.
Everyone said: "A wife gets a thousand gold, if I sell it, I can save myself such hard work every day." β
Only Shi Laohan drank silently and did not make a sound.
Shen Changdong looked at him half-jokingly and said, "This brother, why don't you say anything, I think it's against everyone's ideas?" β
Shi Lao smiled honestly and said: "Although the family is poor, fortunately, his wife is virtuous, and he is able to be harmonious and beautiful Until now, even if he sells himself, he can't sell his wife." β
Everyone immediately began to laugh, joking with Shi Laohan.
Shen Changdong also laughed with everyone, but during this time, he glanced at his subordinates.
That night, when Shi Laohan went home to cross the stone bridge, he stumbled and fell into the small river on the village and drowned.
Everyone in the neighborhood said that he was so careless because he had eaten too much wine, and his family also agreed with this statement, although he was grief-stricken, he could only endure the pain and deal with the aftermath.
But before the 7749th day after Shi Laohan's death, Shen Changdong took advantage of the time when the two brothers of the Shi family went out to strengthen the Li family.
When Li waited for his two sons to return home, he cried about the humiliation.
The family sat in one place, and then Shi Shan remembered the strangeness of his father's death, and the two brothers were red-eyed at that time, one was holding a kitchen knife, and the other was carrying a shovel, so they wanted to rush out to avenge their father.
Li desperately stopped, almost knelt down for his two sons, and said bitterly that the Qian family was rich and powerful, even if they wanted revenge, they had to think of a perfect plan, and if they went forward with such an impulse, they would only lose their lives in vain.
