Chapter 7: My brother is bullied

"I'm interested, it's just ......," Wei Rui shook the tofu in his hand, "I have to send the tofu home first, otherwise it will spoil." Don't look at me now that I'm dressed and well-fed, my brother is still hungry at home. ”

Wei Changan frowned slightly: "You still have a brother?" ”

"Hmm." Wei Rui responded, hugged his fists and said, "Today's matter is my fault, and I will come to the door to make amends another day, but the things you bet on me may disappoint you." ”

"Why?" Wei Changan asked.

"Because I'm poor and white, I don't have anything to bet on, unless you bet on me whether I'm a man or a woman. But this kind of gambling is too pediatric, it's weird and boring, you won't be so boring and naΓ―ve. ”

Wei Changan's eyes widened, then he coughed, and said embarrassedly: "Then since this is the case, the official will not send the girl, but next time I will ask the girl to talk about it, the official really wants to ask for advice." ”

At this time, Wei Rui was a little stunned, and he couldn't hold back his temperament, so he simply asked, "Like me to ask for advice?" You shouldn't be stingy enough to catch turtles in the urn, what can you ask me for? ”

"Of course, I asked for advice on how to marry Qing'er home." He smiled slightly, but the roots of his ears were slightly red, and there was a warm spring in his eyes, and the word Qing'er seemed to be extraordinarily gentle when he spit out of his mouth.

It seems that there is a play.

Wei Rui said: "If this is the case, then I will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire." ”

Wei Changan seemed to be slightly stunned, and Wei Rui hurriedly added: "After all, Qing'er is my first friend, and I have to let her have a good husband." ”

After speaking, she said: "In this case, I won't delay the adult's time, I have to go home first." ”

After a long walk, the tofu has changed from fresh to not fresh. Wei Rui felt a little guilty, although her brother didn't say anything when he sold the cattle, but it was a big deal.

She remembers that when she was studying history before, she said that it was illegal to sell cattle in some dynasties in ancient times, after all, it was the main force of the agricultural economy, which shows how important cattle are. And although this dynasty did not break the law, its importance was the same.

I walked to my yard with apprehension, but I didn't want the dilapidated yard to be unexpectedly lively.

She walked towards the crowd with curiosity and confusion, only to find that her honest brother was surrounded in the middle, losing money on the left and rubbing on the right.

"What's going on?" She asked.

The man at the head looked at her, was stunned, and then said in such an annoying tone: "Yo, is Wei Rui back?" Where did you steal this garment? Are you like your brother, who steals other people's eggs when he has nothing to eat? ”

"Stealing eggs?" Wei Rui glanced at the people around him, first reached out and pulled aside the fingers that were about to reach out to Wei Ying's face, and asked, "Who saw my brother steal?" ”

The man sneered, "What, are you afraid that we will wronged him?" Widow Cai, the woman can see it clearly, don't believe you to ask her? ”

The thin woman was pulled from the side, and with fear, she didn't even dare to look at Wei Ying's eyes, she just nodded.

Wei Rui hesitated, turned his head to look at Wei Ying and asked, "Brother, did you take it?" ”

Wei Ying hurriedly shook his head: "I don't, I'm not a greedy person at all, how can I steal people's eggs?" ”

Seeing that a big man was about to cry aggrievedly, Wei Rui also understood that this person was deliberately here to find fault, he seemed to have been interested in the original owner of this body before, but there were a bunch of stinky problems, Wei Ying was unwilling, he hated Wei Ying, and when the old man in the family left, Wei Ying was too honest, so he thought about bullying him.

"Well, you can't say that. Who doesn't know that your family's most valuable cow has been sold? Maybe you're too poor to open the pot and steal it, right? ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the people around him also echoed him, Wei Ying was speechless, his face was flushed with anxiety, he looked at Cai Widow, the woman, and looked at his sister pitifully.

Wei Rui took a deep breath, she looked around, most of them were lively, the one who shouted the most was a friend who was looking for trouble, and the quietest and most frightened was the so-called witness.

"You said my brother stole your things, is there any evidence? Isn't there only one woman to prove it? Who knows if you're forcing people to talk nonsense? Wei Rui asked.

She stared at the person who was looking for trouble, and added: "Also, our family sells cattle not because our family is too poor to open the pot, but because I use the money from the sale of cattle to do business, do you see the clothes on my body?" See the tofu I'm carrying? That's the proof that I'm making money. The situation you said does not exist, and our family will not be able to open the pot, let alone steal your eggs. ”

The man looked at her for a long time, stumbled a little and said, "You said you made money...... You're making money? Who knows if your tofu and clothes were stolen? Or did you get it for something weird? Also, what does it mean not to go to my house and steal eggs? Your brother just stole it! ”

Wei Rui snorted coldly: "Who in the village doesn't know that you are surprisingly lazy, the weeds in the field are two feet high, have you ever raised your chickens?" Haven't your chickens been scurrying around the village since your mother died? Speaking of which, we didn't care much about your chickens last time they lived in our vegetable garden, so why are you so careless about an egg? ”

"Then again, the village chief saw your chickens enter our vegetable garden, and the village chief has always been fair and impartial. This time, my brother stole your eggs, but it was Cai's widow who came to testify, who doesn't know that you often bully her, what if you forced her to talk nonsense? ”

Seeing Wei Rui's aggressiveness, the man slowly put away his smug expression, and became impatient and angry: "You have two mouths and one mouth, and you are spewing blood, you said that I forced her to talk nonsense, do you have evidence?" Have it? ”

Wei Rui retorted: "Then you said that my brother stole your eggs, do you have any evidence?" ”

"I have a witness!" The person who was looking for trouble was bold and distracted, and said: "Hey Wei Rui, I'll tell you today, the egg matter is not over." You, either give me the money, I don't think about it if it's less than ten taels, or ah, you can obediently go home with me and be my daughter-in-law, and if you serve me well, maybe I can be nice to you. ”

Wei Rui looked at him, sneered, and suddenly reached out and picked up the water scoop in the urn next to him, and a scoop of water poured down the top of the man's head.

"You didn't do it in daydreaming, you were a bully, were you? Since you and I have no evidence, why don't you ask the witness and see what she has to say? ”

The man was suddenly doused with water, and he was about to have a seizure, Wei Rui smiled: "What? Want to get your hands dirty? Afraid of Cai's widow, the woman told the truth so that she could strike first? ”

The man endured his fist and gritted his teeth and said: "If Widow Cai and the woman said that your brother stole it, I will return this scoop of water to you tenfold." ”

"Whatever." Wei Rui spoke, then looked at Cai Widow, and the woman said, "Sister-in-law Cai, what is going on today, sister, I just want to hear what you say, you don't have to be afraid, just tell the truth." ”

As for Widow Cai, the woman looked at the eyes of the people around her staring at her, and she couldn't say a word, but she was trembling all over, very pitiful.
