Chapter 227: The Moon is Black and the Wind is High

Mrs. Wang was frightened when she saw that it was Widow Xia's daughter and son, as well as Zhao Niuniu. Hurriedly smiled, "Oh, what I'm talking about is, yes, it's a widow surnamed Li on Qingyang Street......"

Xia Li raised his voice and said, "No matter who it is, you can't create rumors out of nothing. If I say that Mrs. Wang in the North Hutong of Dongrong Street pulled and pulled with the old man who was digging dung, and also collected money from others, do you admit it? You must know that trouble comes from the mouth, and the mouth accumulates some virtue. ”

Mrs. Wang knew that the Xia family not only had a good relationship with Zhao Liang, but also had a good relationship with the Dusi Mansion, and there was a younger brother who was the general manager, and there were two Rong dogs and a bear blind in the family, so she didn't dare to have a head-on conflict with them.

She always wanted her second daughter to marry Zhao Liang, and asked someone to say that she had agreed, but Zhao Liang disagreed. She thought that it was because Xia and Zhao Liang saw the right eye that she rejected her daughter. couldn't be angry, so she secretly made some remote things to stink the reputation of the Xia family, and it was best to squeeze the Xia family out of Dongrong Street again, so that her daughter could marry Zhao Liang as she wished. Now that she is talking badly about others, she can't afford to offend herself, and she doesn't dare to scold her back.

She said with a dark face, "How can Miss Xia talk nonsense with white teeth like this, why don't you dig out dung, when did I collect money from others?" The little girl is not very old, her heart is bad, she can say anything, and I don't know how your mother taught her. Alright, alright, let's not talk about it. And he turned and walked away.

The other women all laughed and said, "Miss Xia, don't go to your heart, sister-in-law Wang (aunt) usually likes to talk nonsense with a big mouth, and we don't believe her words." ”

Then, too, gone.

Looking at their backs, Xia Li's face became even more gloomy.

Xia Ju said hatefully, "Sister, that bad woman scolded our mother, let Dangdang and Xiong Xiang and Heizi bite her, and then tell the third uncle and Brother Ye to beat her." ”

Zhao Niuniu also said, "Leaving my sister, that Grandma Wang hates it so much, she comes to my door every day, and wants to marry her second daughter to my father." My father didn't want to, and told me not to associate with them, saying that they had bad thoughts. ”

Xia Li understood, it turned out that it was her family's idea to beat Zhao Liang, but Zhao Liang disagreed and splashed Xia's sewage. It's not wrong for her daughter to take a fancy to Zhao Liang, but she can't frame others with bare mouths and white teeth, and using this kind of words to frame a widow will kill someone.

Xia Li saw that the few women who were watching the excitement hadn't gone too far, so he raised his voice and said, "Oh, it turns out that Mrs. Wang wants to marry her separated second daughter to Uncle Zhao." That Mrs. Wang is too lacking in morality, Uncle Zhao looks down on her daughter, how can she make other people's rumors. People like her, the girls taught will not be much better, Uncle Zhao is the president of Qian, and he will be promoted to a bigger official in the future, how can he look down on the person who can't be on the stage. ”

The women in front of them paused, and the family next to them opened the courtyard door and glanced at them.

They went to the door of Zhao's house and saw Zhao Niuniu enter the house.

Before Zhao Niuniu closed the door, she whispered to them, "In the future, Grandma Wang will talk to me, and I won't pay attention to her." When my father came back, I told him about Grandma Wang scolding Aunt Xia. ”

Xia Li was speechless, Zhao Liang had no intention of leading the disaster to Xia's mother, he had to know the reason.

On the way, Xia Li whispered to Xia Ju again, "Don't go back and talk nonsense about this, my mother knows that I want to be angry." ”

Xia Ju nodded in agreement, and scolded a few words in a low voice, "bad woman".

At this time, the sky was already dark, the sky was full of stars, the sky was full of clear light, and the shadows of the weeping willows by the river were wrong. A cool breeze hit, blowing Xia Li's mind a little clearer. She thought that not only did she have to clean up the black-hearted princess, but she also had to find a way to save the reputation of the Xia family.

On the other side of the river, Liu Changzhao led two dogs and one bear to wait at the east gate for a while. Seeing them coming, the two dogs and the bear ran to the bridge with a howl, and then ran to them.

In fact, as soon as they cross the bridge, they arrive at the door of their homes, and they can go home without being picked up. But the person who sent them had to wait until someone picked them up before letting them go, or as long as they left the house of Dusi Mansion and Xia, someone had to follow them at all times, unless they were going into the mountains.

This is the regulation of Ye Feng. No matter how sensible they are, they are also dogs and bears, and they are afraid that someone will treat them badly, or that they will suddenly go berserk and hurt people.

Liu Changzhao under the starlight is long and jade, handsome and elegant, and the awkward bear child has unconsciously grown into a beautiful man.

Several of the little ladies who were talking on this side of the river stopped talking, looked at him, and quickly lowered their heads and laughed.

Xia Li smiled with Liu Changzhao, Liu Changzhao smiled brighter, and raised his eyebrows, with a flirtatious expression.

Xia Li hurriedly closed his mouth. In ancient times, a fifteen-year-old man could marry a daughter-in-law, and he took him as a younger brother, would he really have some thoughts about her as Xia Shiniang said? Thinking about his family's family, it is impossible to be interested in a peasant girl. Thinking so, she laughed again and beckoned to him.

When Xia returned home from them, Jin Ling whispered, "Aunt Xia said that she was not feeling well, so she rested first." ”

Xia Li looked at the small dark window. Xia Shi seems to have been greatly stimulated this time, and his behavior is completely different from usual, stubborn and irritable.

Since they hate that person and that family, the best way to get revenge on them is to remarry and let their baby have someone else's surname. Why didn't the stupid Xia family use this method? I don't know what hurdles she can't get over in her heart.

However, Xia Shi's way, that thing can also be better done with his hands and feet.

Xia Li asked Jin Ling to serve Xia Ju and Ergou Yixiong to wash, and she went to the outer courtyard and called Tian Qing and his wife out to explain in a low voice.

At the end of the next day, the night wind blew, and the clouds covered the half of the bright moon in the sky, and the sky became even darker.

The doors of the houses on Tung Wing Street opened one after another, and some people went to Beihou Street with buckets. There was a donkey cart there, and an old man in his fifties stood aside, he was an old man who specialized in collecting night incense in this area.

The door of Xia Li's house was also opened, and Tian Qing's family, who poured night incense, came out very early today, and there was a dog covered in black cloth on her lap. It was already dark, and with a black cloth, even if someone passed by, they couldn't notice the dog.

Tian Qingjia stopped at the mouth of the alley, looked around, put down the gong bucket, and led the dog to the back of the big tree at the mouth of the latter alley. The big tree went down a little on the embankment, and there was a stone next to it. The dog hides here, and people on both sides of the river can't see it. Tian Qingjia took off the black cloth on his body, patted it gently, and ran to carry the gong bucket to the north back street.

Dangdang's body was wrapped in red, with a red turban on his head, revealing only two round black eyes. It was very excited and thought it was more fun than fighting bandits. Secretly said, my sister looked down on it too much, and told it over and over again with its ear, and it only listened to it once and remembered it.
