Chapter 121: Coming at Them
"It's not about hating the poor and loving the rich. This child and the girl are not from our village, it is also a coincidence, the girl's family promised her to a rich family, the two fell in love, how could they be willing to be separated, so they agreed to escape, and happened to arrive in our village. ”
The old people all have chattering problems, and Granny Ye didn't have a family to chat with before, so when she talked about things, she was even more endless, and immediately told her how she met the young man, and then the final result of their pair of hard-working mandarin ducks.
It turned out that the young man eloped to the village with his sweetheart, but the girl was sick and had to live on decoction. Although he barely relied on the decoction to survive in the end, the delay was several years, and now the situation is not good.
"The boy told me that the girl's illness is now more serious, and the medicine she takes is becoming more and more expensive. I don't know what to do in the future. ”
"So, that girl is in the village too?"
"It's at the east end of the village, and you see that the house is not there, it is their house."
Granny Ye said, showing a regretful expression. "They lived in my house when they first arrived in the village, and a pair of little lovers were sticky and tight, which made people feel interesting when they looked at them."
Jiang Liang listened to Granny Ye talk a lot of old things, and inadvertently mastered a lot of gossip in the village.
"By the way, if you want to go out, you can let the boy take you with you, and you don't need to walk the difficult mountain road in the village, just need him to help you. He said that he had found a more stable way, and that if someone in the village needed something from the outside on weekdays, he would bring it back. ”
Granny Ye said, and suddenly thought that Jiang Liang and Zhao Jingxuan were also from other villages.
She knew that not everyone wanted to live in such a backcountry for the rest of their lives, and they still had families to take care of outside the home, and of course they couldn't stay here forever.
Zhao Jingxuan was originally picking up rice in his mouth, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but pause, and glanced at Jiang Liang.
"Really? That was great, and I went to ask him for help in a few days. ”
Jiang Liang came to his senses, and immediately made a happy look, and nodded again and again.
They sat in the courtyard after dinner, and the night in the village was peaceful, and there was nothing wrong with it except that the weather was getting colder.
The two of them helped Granny Ye clean up the house briefly, thinking that there was naturally no way to wash up under such conditions, so they could only endure it temporarily.
At this time, Jiang Liang couldn't help but feel that she was still too pampered, otherwise she wouldn't be so unaccustomed to this kind of environment.
Zhao Jingxuan didn't have the heart to wash, so he just rinsed it with cold water in the yard and it was over.
When the two returned to the house, they felt a little heavy when they thought of what Granny Ye said.
"That man is really a bandit, are you sure you're right?"
Knowing this young man's experience, Jiang Liang couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to the other party. If it weren't for his sweetheart, this person wouldn't have fallen into the grass.
He is also a grateful person, and he has been helping to take care of Granny Ye who is alone for so many years, in order to repay Granny Ye for taking them in at the beginning.
"This person must have to do that kind of thing because of his sweetheart's illness. I don't think he's a heinous crime. ”
"You think this just because you have listened to Granny Ye's evaluation of him and feel that he has a clear conscience. But what about those who have been killed by the bandits? Who are they asking for an explanation? ”
Zhao Jingxuan turned over, and the futon under him was a little damp, which made his mood worse.
Although his current situation is much better than sleeping in the wilderness, the anxiety of his mood has made him lose his sleepiness at all.
Jiang Liang listened to his words and knew that Zhao Jingxuan was right, although this young man was indeed pitiful, but the poor man must have something to hate, he could have used other methods to make money, but he just embarked on such a road.
"Instead, we'll try to catch him and ask him about it, so we can find out who hired them to do the murder."
Jiang Liang thought about it for a while, and felt that instead of being so entangled, it was better to simply take the first step, as long as they knew the real culprit behind the scenes, they would be able to guard against each other after they went back.
Even if she is not the opponent of that person with her ability now, she believes that she will not be in a passive position all the time.
Zhao Jingxuan listened to her proposal and felt that it made sense.
At that time, the bandits did not reveal who they were targeting, so it was not certain that these people were really hired to deal with Jiang Fence, or if they were coming for themselves.
Although he has amnesia, he is not demented, and the person who tried to hurt people with an arrow in Xinghua Village has not been found yet. Maybe the other party's injuries have not healed, and he can't make another plan, and he wants to use the unruly means of bandits to consume him to death.
You must know that two fists are hard to beat four hands, no matter how good his ability is, he will always miss when he deals with these troubles again and again.
"You might as well do that."
Zhao Jingxuan had just said this, when his ears suddenly moved, and he heard some movement.
"We could have been discovered."
Zhao Jingxuan lowered his voice and whispered to Jiang Li, motioning for her to get up and leave quietly behind him.
Fortunately, Granny Ye's house has a back door, and they quietly walked out of the back door and hid in a low wall to hide their figures, so they finally saw the person clearly.
I saw a group of people dressed as bandits appear in the village and gather around a young man, and this young man is the one who caught the fence before!
Jiang Liang couldn't help but stiffen when she saw this, she didn't expect that this person would actually bring the bandits into the village!
Thinking that these people might be unfavorable to the villagers, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, for fear that because of them, she would affect the kind villagers.
"Is this guy crazy? When he brought in these bandits, wasn't he afraid that these people would be bad for the village......
Jiang Liang didn't dare to continue thinking about it, although she and Zhao Jingxuan had just arrived in the village, but the simplicity of the villagers deeply moved her.
Unlike Xinghua Village, the people here are like a family, and they are also very welcoming to outsiders.
If it was really because of them that these innocent villagers were harmed, Jiang Liang would not forgive himself.
"It's okay, this person still has some status among the bandits, he dares to bring this group of people in, he should be sure that he can control them. Otherwise, is he really crazy, and even cares about the lives of the villagers for the sake of that reward? ”
Zhao Jingxuan is not as nervous as Jiang Liang, although he knows that this person is ruthless, but since he can still miss Granny Ye's kindness in taking care of him after many years, he should still have a good conscience.
