Chapter 106: Help
Some even took the opportunity to talk to them.
"Little girl, where did you get this stuff from, why is it so delicious? Our people eat it once and shout to eat it every day, I have an old bone, I can't do much, now, I just come to you every day to buy cakes! ”
With a grin, the old uncle's jagged old teeth looked very ugly, but Qu Die didn't have the slightest impatience, and even laughed along, "Yes, I know you, you, you are the most diligent early in the morning!" It's an old acquaintance of mine! ”
"Ouch, yes, you're a really good little girl, not bad!" brushed the beard on his chin, and when he heard Qu Die's words, the uncle suddenly smiled.
As soon as the atmosphere was raised, several villagers immediately chatted together.
……
"Whew." Straightening up the sore waist, Qu Die and the two of them were tired, but they still didn't relax to clean up the mess.
All the way home from the mule cart, Qu Die went to the backyard to take a look as usual, fortunately, throughout the day, the bean seedlings did not look like they had been touched in the slightest, but they were worried that they would be attacked at night, and when the night fell, Qu Die began to wait in the field.
Two days passed, and what made her miscalculate was that Zhao Mei didn't come.
"Did she get to that point?" Calm eyebrows, not only did she not guard anyone, but Qu Die herself was tired enough, and if Zhao Mei didn't catch it for a day, she couldn't / make her completely relieved.
It takes a full three months for potatoes to ripen, and now part of the stockpile has been consumed, and although it can last for a while, there is no insurance to grasp the planting.
On the night of the third day, Qu Die simply pulled Gu Zhan to accompany her to arrest people.
"If I hadn't happened to be here today, you wouldn't have known to come to me for help." Frowning, when Gu Zhan heard that Qu Die had been like this for several days, he couldn't help but feel a little faint anger in his heart.
However, for these, Qu Die was very nervous and didn't notice it, and there was some helplessness in her tone, "I'm sorry for you, in short, I must not let her do anything wrong to me anymore!" If she can show up tonight, I'm going to catch her and settle the score! ”
Pouting and hiding in the shadows, the eyes of both of them were staring around for a moment.
Not long after, stepping on the moonlight, a thin body with a cat's waist hidden in the night touched in, she didn't say a word, raised the hoe in her hand and ran to the field where Qu Die hit the potato.
The essence that bursts out of a pair of eyes can be seen clearly even by the butterflies in the dark.
A pair of arms slowly raised, and the hoe in his hand seemed to be chiseled down with a thousand strengths.
"Bell!" Fortunately, Qu Die's eyes were fast, and the stones in his hand flew out like a torrent, and by chance collided with the stiff hoe with a crisp sound.
Not good! Zhao Mei secretly screamed in her heart, instantly understood the situation, and wanted to run without saying a word.
"Stop!" Qu Die's body was fat, Zhao Mei was thin after all, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead when she landed, but fortunately, Gu Zhan reacted quickly enough, and she had already run out the moment Zhao Mei wanted to run.
"Wow!" The big hand accurately clasped the back of Zhao Mei's neck, lifted the collar, and her feet were already in the air, and she couldn't help but scream in a hurry.
"Shut up!" Frowning, Zhao Mei's sharp scream made Qu Die very irritable, she was already tired enough if she didn't sleep at this point, and now when she saw this culprit, she couldn't wait to beat her up.
And after Zhao Mei saw the faces of the two of them, her eyes immediately widened as big as copper bells, and her tone became angry.
"Spread out, spread me, do you want to rebel, you dead girl? What are you going to do in the middle of the night, two dogs and a man?! Struggling desperately, Gu Zhan's big hand still showed no sign of letting go, which made Zhao Mei angry and anxious.
And Qu Die also laughed angrily when she saw her appearance of a wicked person suing first, "Zhao Mei, what are you pretending?" Do you think you have to run now? Don't howl like a ghost in the middle of the night. ”
Qu Wanting was still asleep in the house, and Qu Die didn't want to alarm her, after all, she lied to her that she had already slept.
"You, you girl, I'm your mother, and you still don't let me go?" After a long time, the feeling of her feet not touching the ground made her very uncomfortable, which was also the reason why Zhao Mei still kept arguing.
Raising his hand to signal Gu Zhan to put her down, Qu Die couldn't help but clasp her hands and asked, "Is it?" Then what are you doing in my backyard in the middle of the night? Recently, the vegetables I grow have been ruined, and it won't be ......."
"No, what are you talking nonsense?! I, I just happened to come over, and besides, this is still our Qu family's old house, why can't I come? ……”
The subconscious weakness of heart caused Zhao Mei to unconsciously avoid Qu Die's eyes, but she soon reacted again and put on a reasonable appearance.
"Really? Is it really not you? But the day before yesterday, I also picked up something that was bad for the culprit in my field, and it happened that you touched it in the middle of the night today, how do I think it's not a coincidence? ”
Squinting her eyes, Qu Die's eyes made Zhao Mei feel more and more empty, but she still gritted her teeth and wanted to pretend to be stupid to the end, "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know anything, you let me go!" ”
"That's it." Retracting her eyes, Qu Die said lightly, as if she didn't want to pursue it, and at the moment when Zhao Mei just showed her joy, a wicked smile spread at the corner of her mouth.
"Tomorrow/You go with me to talk to Uncle Wei and reason! Uncle Wei Linjin. Glancing at Zhao Mei teasingly, Qu Die naturally believed that she would not know this name.
As expected, in the next moment, the originally sallow complexion instantly became as colorful as fireworks, ignoring her stubborn resistance, Qu Die asked Gu Zhan to help her tie Zhao Mei to the firewood room, and then ignored it.
Early in the morning of the second day, he rarely canceled his daily routine of selling potato cakes, and Qu Die directly dragged Zhao Mei to Wei's house, and Qu Wanting was also with her.
Looking at her second aunt's appearance now, Qu Wanting didn't know how to speak, after all, what the Qu family did was indeed excessive, and she also understood Qu Die's temperament, and it was absolutely impossible to forgive.
With their own concerns, several people soon came to the gate of the Wei family, and as soon as they knocked on the door, someone soon came to greet them.
"Qu Die?! Wanting?! It was Wei Huan who opened the door, and the two familiar faces in front of her made her eyes widen in surprise, and she covered her mouth and exclaimed.
After all, Wei Linjin is a person, and he has always been fair and honest, although he is only a petty official, he can be regarded as an authoritative existence in the village.
And there is another authority, which is naturally Xie Qinghai's, as for the reason, it can be imagined......
Briefly stating the reason for her coming, Wei Huan instantly understood, and no longer wasting time, she directly led Qu Die and the three of them towards the back room.
"Fortunately, you came early, my father hasn't gone out yet, and you're afraid you won't be able to see him any later." While tilting his head and Qu Die to explain, Wei Huan's face also appeared with happiness from friends who had not seen him for a long time.
In the living room, after sitting and waiting for a while, Wei Linjin's figure slowly appeared.
During this period, Zhao Mei can be said to be like an ant on a hot pot, and there is no moment to calm her anxious heart, but in terms of force, Qu Die alone is enough to restrain her.
"Uncle Wei." Although they had met once or twice, in the face of the elders, Qu Die still did not lose his politeness and greeted him very respectfully.
"Miss Qu, you're welcome, I listen to Huan'er, you have something to find me, can you elaborate?" The expression skipped over Zhao Mei, who was restless on the side, as smart as Wei Linjin, he actually had a little guess.
After Qu Die finished speaking, his expression became more and more calm.
The Qu family, the two families have met each other, and for Zhao Mei and Qu Wen's family, Wei Linjin dislikes it from the bottom of his heart, just because both of them are greedy and vain.
So in this matter, he was biased towards Qu Die from the bottom of his heart, and after listening to everything, he became more and more sure.
"I see, I don't know why Miss Qu wants to come to me to theorize about this?" looked at Qu Die with a smile, her eyes were full of appreciation, but the woman had the courage of a man, which was really rare.
And before Qu Die could speak, Zhao Mei had already shouted from the side, "Nonsense, this is nonsense about the head of the Wei family!" How could I, as a mother, do such a thing to my child? ”
Pulling her throat, not saying anything else, just the hideous expression on Zhao Mei's face made people look very disliked, and Wei Linjin was the same.
Qu Die's abacus is actually very clear to him, it is not uncommon to have such a mother in the village, but it is like this, and no girl dares to disobey her mother.
But how can they not see their dirty deeds?
Qu Die obviously wants to ask for his help, as long as he opens his mouth, then these ten miles and eight towns will be able to understand the inside story of the Qu family more or less, and he will be somewhat restricted by Zhao Mei's deliberate embarrassment in the future.
Wei Linjin is a scholar, but since he became an official, he has seen too many truths in this world, and he has no aversion to Qu Die's desire to use him.
"Mrs. Zhao, don't worry, we can take it slowly, if you really don't do it, I am a fair person, and I will not slander you."
opened his mouth with a smile, and in the face of Zhao Mei, who was still wailing, Wei Lin was still very patient on his face.
"This is evidence, and I caught my mother last night, and this is human evidence." Taking out a worn-out shoe with both hands, Qu Die said again: "This was done by the thief who ruined my field that day, the shoes are dirty, don't touch them, adults." ”
"However, my cousin is also a witness, if you don't believe me, you can ask her." turned her head and gestured to Qu Wanting, but Qu Die's appearance was still pampered.
At this time, Zhao Mei also closed her mouth very self-consciously, and didn't dare to shout anymore, but secretly she still muttered.
Ignoring Zhao Mei, Wei Linjin didn't want to waste time on this kind of person, and he didn't have a long time to go to work, so he directly asked Qu Wanting for some key points.
"Now that the matter is clear, then Mrs. Zhao, why are you struggling, they are all a family, what's the fun of doing this? Make amends and make some compensation, I believe that Miss Qu is your biological daughter after all, and she will not embarrass you. ”
