Chapter 542: Why don't you go home
- Yesterday they went to Liu's house, next door to Li's house, to search for clues and asked three questions:
1, How did Li Qianggui die?
2, why did the village close its doors at night after the Li family died?
3, Why does the Lee family have no children?
Old man Liu answered these questions one by one, and the answers were very detailed, and Shen Mo remembered them very clearly.
But what did Mrs. Liu say at that time?
It seems that he said a few words......
Bai Youwei narrowed her eyes and said slowly: "When we first met, the old woman said that the village is too poor, and everyone who can walk has left, and the only ones who stay are the old people who can't walk, and the old bachelors who can't marry their daughters-in-law.
Since the girls in the village have all married to other villages, the old bachelors in the village can only buy daughters-in-law, so what about the old singles who have no money? Later, the old man also mentioned this, saying that Li Lezi was too poor to marry a daughter-in-law, but in fact, this was a hint to us that there was a problem with Li's origin.
Later, we asked Li how he died, and the old man replied a lot, do you remember what the old woman said? She said, "Lee, it's a poor man."
Obviously, the person who died was Li Lezi, but she said that Li was pitiful, which shows that Li has suffered a lot at the hands of Li Lezi.
And one last question, which is the most interesting.
We asked Li why he didn't have children, and the old man said that Li was young and that giving birth hurt his body, but the old woman said at the time...... Lee, too delicate. ”
"Delicate...... Shen Mo thought thoughtfully, "The daughter of an ordinary peasant family would not be described as delicate. ”
Bai Youwei nodded lightly: "Speculate along this line, the people in the village laughed at Li Lezi for not being able to marry a daughter-in-law, and he turned back a little girl from outside in a fit of anger." I guess Li's original family will not be a high-ranking official, the kind of one with a maid and a mother-in-law, it is not easy to start, but it should be a small rich family, he has not suffered much since he was a child, and his personality is innocent and simple. ”
"When you are young, your body has not grown well, and forcibly giving birth to a child has damaged your body, which also makes sense." Shen Mo thought for a while, and said, "It is also possible that the Li family didn't want to give birth and deliberately damaged her body, but in this way, she will definitely suffer a lot from the Li family." ”
"If it's so hard, why don't you go home?" Bai Youwei was a little puzzled, "Even if you lose your virginity, you won't try it once, right?" ”
Shen Mo said: "Maybe her family attaches great importance to rules and fame. ”
Bai Youwei shook her head: "In ancient times, only the upper class paid attention to this, and if the ordinary people of the people followed this set of rules, they would not be able to live, in fact, even in the most conservative dynasties, it was common for widows to remarry, divorce and remarry." ”
For example, the whole world knows that Arab women are conservative, covering only one pair of eyes, but in fact, if you have been to a local poor village, you will find that the women in the village need to work in the fields, and they have no way to dress like that, and they have to think about how to make ends meet every day, and they don't have the time to pay attention to those rules.
Bai Youwei slid the wheelchair and slowly walked forward, thinking carefully.
"If you can stop it for a while, you can't stop it for a lifetime...... Something must have happened that caused Lee to give up the idea of going home......"
She looked at the old scholar's house in the distance, stopped suddenly, and slowly opened her eyes.
"I see...... Why can't she go back......"
Shen Mo also stopped and looked at the ancient mansion in the distance.
I didn't realize it before, but now from a distance, the terrain of the old house is much lower than the village, and in front of the main gate stands a huge naturally formed rock, which makes the house look ...... Like a grave.
"What if......" Bai Youwei said softly, "what if she has an older brother, or a younger brother, who has taken the high school entrance examination and become an official?" The latest chapter of "100 Plating" didn't become a doll today is free to read for the first time.
