Chapter 53 Debt

The woman looked at us with a slightly anxious look on her face, but she didn't say a word for a long time.

"Aunt Yufen? What's wrong with this? Why are you still blue-skinned? Sick? "Although the aunt is more than ten years older than this Yufen, the people in the village pay attention to their seniority, so they have to call someone else's aunt when they open their mouths.

"Are you really demon hunters?" This woman named Yufen looked at Long Xuanling, Long Xuanling was wearing a mask, and she looked very mysterious, which made her a little scared.

Long Xuanling nodded slightly, and the woman pursed her lips and said, "I want your help with something." ”

"Twenty silver dollars!" Long Xuanling made a price, he knew that we had no money on hand, but in this rural place, Long Xuanling also knew that they couldn't get much honorarium, so he offered a fair price.

"If you can really handle this matter, I am willing to pay thirty silver dollars." The other party looked at us with an eager expression.

After listening to this, we were stunned at first, there are still people who raise the remuneration themselves, it seems that the matter should be very serious.

"Can you come to my shop?" She looked at us with pleading in her eyes.

A few of us nodded, and the aunt was curious and wanted to follow, but obviously the other party didn't want outsiders to know too much, so the aunt could only smile awkwardly and go to the field with farm tools.

The shop opened by Yufen is actually a small shop selling soy sauce and vinegar, and now it is the busy season for rice farmers, and the adults in the village are busy in the fields, and the shop is very deserted.

She led us into the shop, closed the door, and lit the kerosene lamp.

"Sit down, y'all." She said as she poured us tea.

"Don't be busy, if you have anything to say, just say it." Long Xuanling looked at her and said.

As soon as the other party heard this, he immediately sat down, and without beating around the bush, he directly told us the matter concisely.

She said that her name is Zhang Yufen, and most of the people in this village are surnamed Hu, and she moved to this village from her father's generation, and the village chief is also a distant relative of them, but she is already very rusty.

However, after arriving in this village, the village chief took good care of their family, and Zhang Yufen grew up with the village chief's son Hu Xueli, who was only three years older than Hu Xueli.

The two are childhood sweethearts, and they have already promised each other for life.

But as a result, two years ago, Hu Xueli's mother died, and Hu Xueli's father, Hu Qianggui, proposed marriage to the Zhang family.

Zhang Yufen was happy at first, thinking that Hu Xueli had explained his mind to his father and wanted to marry him.

As a result, Hu Qianggui actually proposed to himself, and Zhang Yufen's parents agreed in one bite, after all, Hu Qianggui is the village head, and he has a head and a face in this village, and he has the most fields, so he will not worry about eating and drinking when he marries.

In this way, Zhang Yufen became Hu Xueli's stepmother, Hu Xueli chose to go to the provincial capital to study that year, everyone thought that he was studying, but in fact, it was just to escape from this family and avoid meeting her stepmother.

However, this time, Hu Xueli came back suddenly, and he didn't eat or drink much in the house, and he was emaciated and haggard day by day.

His father thought that when his son was older, he should marry a wife, have children, and start a family, so he found him a wife, and the bride was about to enter the door three days after the marriage banquet.

Although Zhang Yufen felt a little uncomfortable, it was nothing, after all, it was a matter of time, and now she was Hu Xueli's stepmother, and it was impossible for the two of them in this life.

Moreover, the village chief treated Zhang Yufen well, so she also tried her best to help choose the daughter of a good family, but these days, Zhang Yufen felt that Hu Xueli was getting more and more wrong.

"In his house, there are often bursts of crying in the middle of the night." Zhang Yufen said, her eyes sank: "At first, I thought he was unwilling to marry, but one day, I heard a woman's voice in his house, which was very terrifying." ”

"A woman's voice?" I frowned.

"Yes, but, I'm sure, there's no woman in his house." After Zhang Yufen said this, she immediately said nervously: "Yesterday, what did this gentleman say about the debt of Xueli?" I wonder if he's entangled in dirt and owes a debt, right? ”

Zhang Yufen looked at Long Xuanling, Long Xuanling listened, nodded silently, and agreed with Zhang Yufen's statement.

As soon as Zhang Yufen heard this, her hand trembled and the tea spilled on the table, and she asked with a solemn face: "Then what should I do, do you want to save the school ceremony!" ”

"To save him, he has to speak, what others say doesn't count, why don't you go back and ask him, what debt does he owe?" Long Xuanling said very indifferently: "If he has no guilt in his heart and doesn't want to repay his debts, then there is nothing I can do." ”

"This?" When Zhang Yufen heard this, she looked a little flustered, thought about it, and finally let us rest in her shop first, and she went back to talk to Hu Xueli to see Hu Xueli's attitude.

Long Xuanling nodded, and Zhang Yufen left the shop in a hurry.

We all rested in her shop, but this Zhang Yufen never returned, we waited from day to night, and there was still dry food from the aunt in the baggage, so that Mingyue Yunhe would not be hungry.

"You rest here, and Benjun will go and see." Long Xuanling felt that something was wrong, and he wanted to go to the village chief's house to have a look, so I naturally stood up and wanted to go together.

Long Xuanling could only take me with him, and with a faint black air, he found a two-story house.

This house also has a yard, presumably the village chief's house.

Long Xuanling took me and quietly climbed over the wall to enter the hospital, without looking for it, we saw that in front of the wooden door on the right side of the courtyard, there was a thick black gas, which was yin.

Presumably this is Hu Xueli's room, Long Xuanling and I walked to the wooden door, and really heard a cry inside.

Moreover, this cry is extremely suppressed, as if he is crying with his mouth covered.

Long Xuanling and I walked around to the window of the room, stabbed the paper window, and looked inside.

As a result, I only saw the high bulge of the quilt, and Hu Xueli should have hid in the quilt and sobbed secretly.

"It's ridiculous, where the hell did it come from? Ali, don't cry! When you get married, you'll be fine. The village chief's voice came from upstairs, followed by the voice of Zhang Yufen.

It turned out that Zhang Yufen was stopped by the village chief and couldn't go out, and the village chief felt that his son was not haunted by ghosts, but was shocked.

thinks that after he marries, it will be good to have someone to accompany him.

Long Xuanling and I hid sideways to prevent the village chief from finding out, and after the village chief finished scolding, he closed the door.

Long Xuanling walked directly to Hu Xueli's door, raised his hand and waved, the wooden door "creaked" open, and the crying in the room stopped abruptly.
