Chapter 32 Repayment of Old Debts

"Guest, let me tell you, the good mountain goods are all in my house, and it is okay not to look at other homes. You can pick whatever you want, and the price is negotiable. Only then did Mrs. Hu become happy, took the key, and opened the warehouse to take the mountain goods.

An Yi followed her in, quietly opened the window latch while she was unprepared, and after repeatedly making sure that all the valuable mountain goods of the Hu family were here, she pickily picked out the mountain goods, and walked around the kitchen again, feeling the location of the jar where the oil was put clearly.

At dinner, An Yi first toasted Old Man Hu and Mrs. Hu several glasses of wine, and then persuaded Zhou Jingang and others with a smile: "I will go back tomorrow, so it's better to drink less wine." ”

Zhou Jingang doesn't care, he is a person who treats wine as water, An Yi didn't say that it was okay, after saying that, he simply picked up the wine and poured Old Man Hu, Old Cai Tou and others into half drunk. Chen Zhishan listened to the persuasion, tasted it lightly, and pulled An Yi aside to whisper: "Lao Caitou agreed, saying that he would inquire for us early tomorrow morning and prepare incense, candles, and paper money." But if we want to go quietly, don't let the Hu family know, otherwise it doesn't matter if he is beaten, this Hu Pozi and Hu Sanlai's mother and son are famous scoundrels. ”

"You tell him, as long as you tell us the land, give us the incense, candles, paper and money, and everything else has nothing to do with him." As expected, An Yi didn't plan to finish everything this time, and she wasn't strong enough yet.

The fifth watch is the time when people sleep most soundly, and it is also the darkest and quietest time in heaven and earth. An Yi got up quietly, tied the burden containing her clothes and the five-clawed golden dragon tightly to her body, poured some water into the door shaft, quietly opened the door, walked into the courtyard and closed her eyes, took a deep breath, the morning breeze was cold and silent, so cold that her already very sober brain calmed down a little.

She measured her bearings and walked straight towards the kitchen, even if she couldn't see her fingers, it didn't affect her sense of orientation at all, this house was so familiar to her, so familiar that she could find exactly where she wanted to go with her eyes closed.

The black dog who was curled up in the corner and sleeping found that it was her, and he didn't dare to make a sound, and he didn't dare to hide away from it with his tail between his legs. An Yi easily found the oil jar, walked to the storeroom, pushed open the window, and poured all the oil into it. After putting the oil jar back in its place, she walked to the storeroom, lightly hit the flint, and threw it into the window.

When the black dog saw the firelight, he instinctively wanted to bark, but his cold gaze at Shang An Yi quieted down again, and he shrank into the corner of the wall in fear. An Yi walked over and reached out to grasp it gently, and said softly, "Don't scream, or I'll peel you and make dog broth." ”

The black dog understood her words, and lay on the ground silently with wide eyes in fear, watching An Yi enter the house motionlessly.

The wind blew from the mountains, blowing into the courtyard of the Hu family, blowing the flames more and more, less than a quarter of an hour, the sky-high fire rose from the warehouse of the pile of mountain goods, and quickly spread to other rooms, the first to bear the brunt of the room next door where Hu Pozi and Old Man Hu lived.

An Yi sat quietly on the small bed, quietly waiting.

I think that when she first came to the Hu family, the Hu family was the same as other villagers, but two rotten thatched huts, and a dog was so hungry that he staggered when he walked. Old man Hu collects medicine, Hu Pozi steals chickens and dogs, Hu Sanlai bullies men and women, and even the sugar in children's mouths can be cheeky ****. Because of her, Hu Sanlai not only got a lot of money from that person, but also got all the clothes and jewelry on her body. Hu Tianhai spent a lot of money to build this house, and with this family business, he became the richest family in this weed.

And she is not as good as a rough girl from the body of a daughter, she can't eat enough and don't warm up, she works hard day and night, collects firewood and medicine on the mountain, picks mountain treasures, washes and cooks at home to serve his family. The slightest disappointment is punching and kicking, shouting and drinking, humiliation and destruction, and even the black dog in the family dares to bully her. No one dared to talk to her when she went out, and as soon as outsiders entered the mountain, she was locked in the firewood room, and it was common for her not to eat or drink for a few days. She fought with ingenuity and endurance, and finally prepared traps, five-clawed golden dragons, and paths, but she was not strong enough to die, so she lived and died in their hands.

Now she's just taking back what they've gotten from her. As for the insults and beatings that Hu Pozi gave her, she will keep them for the time being, and one day, she will come to collect interest. Old man Hu? The world says that he is honest and counts all the evil on Hu Pozi and Hu Sanlai, but no one remembers that he is such an honest man, he never stopped his wife and children from doing evil, watched them beat, bully and torture her, and enjoyed the wealth that came because of her with peace of mind. Seeing her faint in front of her with hunger and cold, she never gave her a sip of water and a mouthful of food, watched her head break and bleed in front of her, and never said a word for her.

Could it be that they have a grudge? Or did she deserve such punishment for something she had done? Neither. This family is not a good person, and there is more than enough to die.

The fire is getting brighter and brighter, the smoke is getting thicker and thicker, and the crackling sound of the hot wood is mixed with the shrill cry of Hu Pozi: "Help, it's on fire, help me......"

Almost, An Yi got up and went out, first smashed the doors of Chen Zhishan and Chen Xi, called him to get up, and then turned around and shouted loudly to Zhou Jingang and others: "Uncle Zhou, get up quickly!" It's on fire! ”

"Get up and save people!" Zhou Jingang heard An Yi shouting to himself in his sleep, and when he woke up, he found that the fire outside the window was soaring, and the heat wave was hitting people, so he jumped up in fright, quickly grabbed the knife placed next to the pillow, and motioned to the two personal soldiers to grab their bags and weapons and follow him, and the first thing he did when he went out was to run towards An Yi's room first, but saw An Yi carrying her small package tightly, and while slapping Chen Zhishan and Chen Xi's door hard, he turned his head and shouted in his direction to get him and Lao Caitou get up quickly.

Seeing that Chen Zhishan, Chen Xi, Lao Caitou and others all ran out, and the Hu family and the two of them were also jumping and shouting in the courtyard, Zhou Jingang breathed a sigh of relief, pulled An Yi to his side to protect him, and motioned to his entourage: "Go and see the horses and donkeys we are riding, otherwise you have to walk back." ”

Old man Hu scooped water from the water tank in vain and poured it on the fire, Hu Pozi was burned to the point that half of her hair was burned, her arms were open, her chest was exposed, she howled and cried in embarrassment, pounced and grabbed Zhou Jingang's arm, and begged: "Guest, please help!" The belongings are all in it, how can we live if they are all burned down? ”

Zhou Jingang was about to respond, but An Yi beside him suddenly screamed and fell down softly. Zhou Jingang didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly carried An Yi to a safe place, and called Chen Zhishan to help.
