Coming out of Lao Zhaotou's house, Zhong Kui summed up a result, that is, when Old Man Zhao was critically ill with his youngest daughter, he was a frequent customer of the handicraft shop. Why did he run to the handicraft store for no reason? Going back and forth, is it just to take a look at the handicrafts that are placed on the counter?

The darkness of the sky indicates that dusk is approaching. Zuo Xiaomu seemed to be very tired, his expression was depressed, and he was extremely reluctant to fall behind, since he bought a sailboat, he has been playing with it.

Stopped in order to wait for Zuo Xiaomu.

"You put that thing away, hold it in your hand, and forget to walk."

"It's strange, this thing is like magic, I ...... it," Zuo Xiaomu wondered. As he spoke, Monet put the sailboat back in his handbag.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, and Zuo Xiaomu's magical words caused Zhong Kui's thinking to explode. On the surface, he seems to be concentrating on walking, but inside he is thinking; Old man Zhao went to the handicraft shop and lingered! Zuo Xiaomu bought a sailboat, he couldn't put it down, he liked it so much, could it be said that this handicraft really has magic?

In the distance, a faint and soft mist gradually filled the county seat. The drizzle, when it had not yet dropped, was fragile and shattered by the passing wind.

The streetlight pole stood lonely in the mist, and a dim or faint street lamp with a faint light and shadow appeared in the sight of the two of them.

When Zhong Kui and Zuo Xiaomu returned to the store, Ran Qin had been waiting for the two of them for a long time.

He blamed her for not calling.

She blamed him for ignoring the phone and shutting it off.

Once explained, it becomes clear that someone only knows the phone, but does not know that the phone is to be charged. So Ran Qin didn't know that she had made many phone calls, all of which prompted the mobile phone user to turn off the phone.

It's not just Ran Qin's dullness and dumbness towards Zhong Kui.

Even the others were speechless.

The rest of the focus is on the handicraft shop, the strange woman, and the delicate handicrafts that sit on the counter. The most suspicious is the raw material of the handicraft, the texture of which is very similar to that of human hair.

But if human hair is used alone to make the raw materials for handicrafts, then if you calculate carefully, how many raw materials are needed?

Because it's like the sailboat that Zuo Xiaomu buys, it's meticulous and lifelike. Even a small inadvertent detail is so fine that the pulse of the item can be seen with the naked eye.

A female neighbor hurriedly passed by Zhong Kui's shop and greeted them by the way, "Mr. Zhong...... Vanilla, have you eaten? This is a very common greeting, and it is also the most popular meeting mantra of the people of the Celestial Empire.

Whether it is men, women and children, the first sentence of the meeting in the morning, noon, evening, and meeting is: "Have you eaten?" "Just like the existing storytelling, at that time was the era of hunger, and people regarded hunger and satiety as particularly important, so the first sentence when they met was whether they had eaten? Take care of each other and don't go hungry.

The topic is far away and scolded!

The female neighbor stopped for a moment in the shop and gossiped: "Do evil! Do you know what happened to the Zhang family? ”

Vanilla and Zhong Kui glanced at each other, both shook their heads and said in unison, "I don't know." ”

"It seems that there is a big trouble, and the woman wants to divorce!" The neighbor added with a very three-eight look.

Vanilla continued to ask: "Well, the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family is divorced!" ”

Anyway, what did the Zhang family make a fuss about just finishing a happy event? Vanilla was surprised, and Zhong Kui was curious. The rest of the people didn't know what they were talking about the Zhang family, and they didn't know what happened to their daughter-in-law.

The neighbors looked left and right, looking very mysterious, and then gossiped: "You don't know that the Zhang family disturbed the peace of more than a dozen families in order to get back this daughter-in-law. ”

“…… Hurry up! Zhong Kui has always disliked these gossiping neighbors, but when he saw her talk about it, he inevitably became curious in his heart. Anxious to hear the following, he hurriedly urged.

"A few days before the happy event, the Zhang family begged for favors everywhere, scraped together, borrowed furniture, and furnisheds. Even the mosquito nets and quilts in the newlyweds' house were borrowed. ”

After the newlyweds worship heaven and earth, the guests finish the cave room. A couple of newlyweds who tie the knot, are in the veins, generating electricity from each other, and are ready to enter the state. Suddenly, a group of neighbors who were still giggling and blessing the newlyweds just now came in, and the purpose of their entry into the new house was nothing else, that is, to remove the furniture, mosquito nets, bedding and so on borrowed by the Zhang family.

Looking at the new house that was still glamorous and gorgeous just now, it instantly became a state of poverty with four walls. The bride wanted to cry without tears, and that night she refused to be with the groom. I cried and made trouble all night, until I pushed the bridegroom out of the new house, and then curled up on the hard bed board alone, and rested for a while in fear.

This......

As neighbors, Zhong Kui and them were in trouble for a while, and they didn't know whether to help the Zhang family or sympathize with the bride.

Vanilla is a warm-hearted person, but also an upright character, and the most sand in her eyes is not rubbed. When she heard the cause and effect of the incident, her lungs exploded. She wants to help the bride seek justice and support her divorce.

Zhong Kui couldn't stop the vanilla, so he had to tell a few words not to make too much trouble. You can only persuade, don't muddy it. Besides; There is not a saying as the saying goes; 'I'd rather demolish ten temples than destroy one family!' ’

Zhong Kui's meaning said; If the bride likes the groom's person, all those decorations and other things are empty. Furnishings can be bought with money, and the feelings of love and affection are priceless.

Take 10,000 steps back and say; The bride originally came to the conditions of the Zhang family, and the groom was insignificant in her heart, and divorce was inevitable. Speaking of which, there is another saying; 'It's hard for a clean official to cut off family affairs! ’

No matter what Zhong Kui thinks or speculates, the bride and groom are already a family protected by law, which means two people. It's not easy for outsiders to meddle in it, so the vanilla's righteous and awe-inspiring approach seems to be a bit too much.

But what happened next was far beyond their speculations and assumptions.

The bride did not go home, but ran to the South Gate Bridge three miles away and jumped into the river.

Don't think that this story has nothing to do with Zhong Kui, if you continue to read it, you will see that the stories are interlocking, and if there is no relationship, it will become related.

The bride jumped into the river because she was poisoned by feudal ideas. In those days, divorce was a shameful and controversial issue. People's patriarchal thinking is deeply ingrained in their minds, and men are always right. Once a woman has something to do, it is likely that it will be spit that will accompany you for a lifetime, making your life worse than death.

The bride is also a girl born with a strict family style, and she reluctantly agreed to this family affair under the bewitchment of the matchmaker's three-inch tongue. One is to satisfy my father, and the other is to serve the reputation of the family.

A woman can't marry two families, and when she enters someone's door, she is someone else's person. These were the words that her mother had taught her ears, which she had taken to heart, and she was furious when she found out that everything was a deception...... If you can't go home, you go jumping into the river...... To defend one's dignity and innocence with the will of death.
