Chapter 3 Stealing chickens does not make rice

"Sister-in-law, you have to think clearly, anyway, Manxi is like this, it's better to settle down earlier, let her move to the Wang family, you keep her, in case the Ding family comes to make trouble again, don't want silver, you have to marry Ding Erwa! That's a fool! ”

So how can Wang Dazhuang be better than Ding Erwa? Ding Erwa is a fool, and Wang Dazhuang is a chicken and dog stealer, in case he accidentally commits a crime, he doesn't have to implicate Manxi!

"What's wrong with Manxi? Manxi was not ruined! It's still innocent! The eldest aunt couldn't listen anymore, and pushed her egg forward, so angry that her fingers were trembling, "Brother and sister! Manxi is also your niece! What kind of goods Wang Dazhuang is, you know it yourself! Don't talk about it again! Otherwise I'll tell the master! ”

"Ouch! You still don't look down on my nephew! You should be full of streams or what fresh radish skin! If you haven't been ruined, if you haven't been ruined, Ding Xiu will quit! Phew! Kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs! Wait to marry a fool! The second uncle angrily picked up the egg and spat at the eldest aunt and Hua Manxi.

"You-you-" The eldest aunt was so angry that Hua Manxi stepped forward to help her, and whispered comfortingly, "Auntie, don't be angry, her mouth grows on her, what did she say that we can't control, I haven't been ruined, I will definitely prove it to them in the future." ”

The child seemed to be more sensible and calmer, and the eldest aunt only thought that she was stimulated by the withdrawal of relatives, and became more and more distressed.

The second aunt almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth, and went directly to her sister-in-law, Widow Wang's house, with a basket of eggs.

"What, is it done?" Wang Widow only has Wang Dazhuang a single seedling, her husband died early, and she has long wanted to marry her daughter-in-law, but Wang Dazhuang is lazy and lazy, and steals chickens and dogs, no girl can look at him, she saw the Ding family withdraw this morning, she thought of letting Wang Dazhuang go to marry Hua Manxi, so she hurriedly called her sister-in-law to talk about matchmaking.

"It didn't work out! People don't look down on Da Zhuang! The second aunt put the egg on the table and said hatefully.

"What? She was a ruined girl, and she was divorced again! didn't agree, did she want to marry Ding Erwa's fool! Widow Wang didn't expect it, so she immediately jumped up angrily and was about to go to Hua's house, "I want to ask Li Cuiniang in person!" ”

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! Wait a minute! The second aunt grabbed her, rolled her eyes, and leaned close to her ear and said, "I have an idea-"

Here, in the dilapidated courtyard of the Hua family, after Hua Manxi brushed the bowls, he boiled the water himself, intending to take a bath, but when he was taking cold water, he alertly glimpsed that someone seemed to be ambushing on the wall!

She was shocked, wasn't it those who murdered the original owner? Could it be that I heard that she was not dead and came to the door again? The original owner is just a small village girl, how could she provoke the outlaws?

Unable to care about so much, Hua Manxi carefully hid in the grape trellis under the fence and grabbed a handful of sand.

There was a pop, and the footsteps fell to the ground, and it was the man who came down over the wall.

There is only one person, and it is easy to deal with.

Hua Manxi was about to make a move, but through the moonlight, he saw that the man was dressed in coarse cloth, and his back was a little familiar-

This is - Wang Dazhuang!

Okay, the front foot said kiss, but the back foot touched into the yard, thinking that it would not work, so I came to cook raw rice and cooked rice, and relied on her!

Hua Manxi gritted his teeth with hatred, caught a glimpse of the change of clothes next to the well, and suddenly whispered: "Brother Zhuang, are you here to find me?" ”

Her voice was sweet, with a hint of shyness.

Wang Dazhuang turned his head violently, Hua Manxi's face was covered with ointment, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but the teenage girl had a slender posture, the most graceful, with a slender waist and thin legs, and she could hold it.

"Sister of the Hua family......" Wang Dazhuang became lustful, and approached Hua Manxi with a smile, "Sister, are you waiting for me?" ”

"It was the second aunt who said you would come." Hua Manxi lowered his head slightly, as if he was shy.

"Aunt takes pity on us, if it weren't for your aunt to stop us, why would we be so sneaky? I have wronged my sister, and when we become relatives after we become adults, I will definitely be good to my sister. Wang Dazhuang couldn't wait to pounce.

Hua Manxi waited for him to approach, raised his hand, and sprinkled the sand in his hand, Wang Dazhuang's eyes suddenly entered the sand, and he didn't dare to scream, Hua Manxi took the opportunity to take the clothes to be washed by the well and covered his head, and quickly picked up the flat pole that carried the water and beat him.

"Catch a thief, catch a thief, there is a thief!" Hua Manxi screamed loudly while beating Wang Dazhuang.

The eldest aunt and the eldest Yang Xiaosong had just finished dinner and had not yet slept, when they heard the noise, they also picked up the guy and joined the ranks of beating people.

Poor Wang Dazhuang, who was still dreaming, was now beaten violently, crying for his father and mother, so miserable, he wanted to expose his home, and he felt extremely ashamed, so he could only endure it and keep silent, and wait for them to relax so that he could take the opportunity to escape.

Who knew that Hua Manxi roared a few voices just now, and was heard by the people around him, although there are some stumbling blocks in the countryside on weekdays, but when it comes to catching thieves and mourning these major events, I still have to come and see.

As soon as Hua Manxi and the others stopped, a few neighbors came over with torches, and the village chief walked in front and hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law of the Hua family, I heard that there are thieves in your yard?" ”

"Yes, as soon as I finished washing the dishes, I saw him sneaking off the wall, so I tore off one of my cousin's clothes and took the opportunity to cover him, and called my aunt and uncle to beat him." Hua Manxi made a look of palpitations and said in a low voice.

"Fortunately, Da Yang and I didn't sleep, if we did-" The eldest aunt also patted her chest again and again, and said in shock, "Village Chief, you quickly escort this thief to the ancestral hall, and report to the official tomorrow." ”

Widow Wang and her second aunt also heard the news and rushed over, knowing that it was Wang Dazhuang, how could they be sent to the ancestral hall? Going to the ancestral hall is a meal to serve, let alone sending it to the government tomorrow?

"Village chief, sister-in-law, don't, don't, that's Da Zhuang!" Widow Wang glanced at the second aunt, and although the second aunt was unwilling, she still squeezed forward and grabbed the eldest aunt's hand.

Who asked her to take the matchmaker money from the widow of the king, this is a bad idea, but she came up with it herself!

"Wang Dazhuang?" When the village chief heard this name, his eyebrows and eyes were cold, this Wang Dazhuang was lazy all day long, it was customary to steal chickens and touch dogs, he hindered his father's early death, and he was a cousin with himself, if he reported to the official, there would only be a widow in the family, and he was not married, and he couldn't bear to cut off this incense, and he had to settle down several times!

"Widow Wang, last time he stole a few chickens from Uncle Li, how did you guarantee that it was less than half a month, and he came to steal again? How do you ask me to explain to the people in the village? Not this time, a board is absolutely indispensable! The village chief glanced coldly at the widow.

"Village chief, you dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger, Da Zhuang is not here to steal things this time!" The second aunt hurriedly distinguished, "He came to deliver something, I heard that my niece was withdrawn, and he had the heart to get married, but my sister-in-law didn't look down on him, so she wanted to secretly send some silver to make up for Manxi." ”

When Hua Manxi heard this, he really admired the five-body throw, can this still turn the game around? She really underestimated this second aunt.

Isn't that just a lie? Who wouldn't?

"But, but I saw him walking towards our chicken coop and opened the doorβ€”" Hua Manxi pointed to the chicken coop that he accidentally kicked over when he beat Wang Dazhuang just now, "If you came to give me money, why did you turn over my chicken coop?" It's clear that he wants to steal chickens! ”

"This Wang Dazhuang, he stole chickens last time, and this time he came to steal chickens, can't he raise a few at home?"

"The widow is very lazy, if she raises chickens, the yard must not be full of-"

"It's still a relative, and it's actually done-"

The people around were talking, and the faces of the widow Wang and the second aunt were almost unbearable.

"Come on, take Wang Dazhuang to the ancestral hall, beat twenty boards, and sign a letter of repentance, if there is a next time, he will definitely be sent to the official!" The village chief gritted his teeth and commanded.

"Uncle, you're my uncle-" Wang Dazhuang's last injury was still painful, and he was going to be beaten again, and he hated the flower Manxi at the moment, and he hated it to the bones, and when he healed his injury, he didn't avenge this revenge, he wrote the word Wang upside down!

This day was thrilling, with all kinds of twists and turns, Hua Manxi almost fell asleep next to the pillow, and he couldn't care about the poor conditions.

Early the next morning, when the rooster crowed, she got up, covered her body with ointment, and planned to go outside to find some way to get some money, and raise five taels of silver as soon as possible.

However, before he went out, he collided with his little cousin Hua Xiaosong.

"Sister, you get up so early? You're still hurt. "Hua Xiaosong is five or six years younger than Hua Manxi, she was brought up by Hua Manxi, and she has the best relationship.

"Why did you get up so early?" Hua Manxi touched his head and asked.

"I-the village chief's field has a lot of insects, he asked someone to catch the insects, and after catching the insects, he can get five cents, I took this job down, I want to earn more silver, I don't want you to marry a fool, sister-" Hua Xiaosong's voice became lower the more he spoke.

Hua Manxi was very moved in his heart, such a young child should go to the school to study, instead of going to the field to catch insects! She's got to make some money! Let Komatsu go to the school as soon as possible!

The top priority is to pay off the debts first and stay away from the Ding family!

"Komatsu, I'll go with you! It would be faster for more people to catch the worm, and I would come back at noon to cook for my aunt and uncle. Hua Manxi said.

"Okay." Hua Xiaosong nodded and walked ahead.

The two siblings talked and laughed, and walked along the tree-lined path through the green ridges and all the way to the paddy fields of the village chief's house.

The village chief's family is a large family in the village, and there are several acres of paddy fields.

"Cousin, it's this worm that has bitten a lot of crops, and the village chief is so angry that he smokes!" Hua Xiaosong jumped into the field, caught a black-shelled insect and handed it to Hua Manxi.

Hua Manxi looked at it, ho, isn't this a snail? Aren't you going to pick up bugs? She's got a way! These five cents can be earned!
