Chapter 179: Retribution
The man at the head was dressed in a bright red new dress, and he was wearing extremely festive clothes, but from far and near he looked like a red pepper rolling on the ground.
The top of his head is half bald, his legs and feet are not good when he walks, not to mention his crooked eyes and eyebrows, Lin Changxirao didn't have the intention of accepting this person as his son-in-law, and he couldn't help but smack his tongue.
Seeing this, He Miao hurriedly said: "Dad, don't look at Gongzi Qin's appearance, but his heart is full of kindness. If I marry, he will definitely treat me well, and he will also honor you and my mother. ”
Lin Changxi laughed dryly, "Okay, good, if you like it." ”
Seeing that Lin Changxi agreed, He Miao finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and put on a smiling face, and walked towards the Qin Gongzi in a lotus step......
When He Miao took Lin Changxi to meet the Qin Gongzi, He Mai was walking down the mountain with Liulang, preparing to go home.
On the way, I suddenly saw a carriage parked on the dirt road at the foot of the mountain, and several guard-like people in front of and behind the body were guarding on tall horses.
"Why are outsiders coming in the village today?" He Mai was surprised, "With such a big pie, could it be that the descendants of whose family returned to their hometowns to worship their ancestors?" ”
Although He Mai said this, he intuitively felt impossible.
This small green village is so poor, and I haven't seen a rich and noble family come out of this village for decades, how can there be descendants who come back in a carriage surrounded by guards to pay respects?
Isn't it Li Zheng......
He Mai thought about it in his heart, but suddenly saw a person jumping out of the carriage.
"Chu Langzhong?" Rokuro raised an eyebrow, surprised.
"It's really Chu Langzhong," He Mai squinted and saw it.
Chu Baishui jumped down from the carriage and bowed down to the people in the carriage again.
A hand as delicate as white jade stretched out from the carriage and waved it in the direction of Chu Baishui.
Immediately, the coachman urged the horse, and the carriage was about to leave.
Seeing this, He Mai hurriedly shouted to Chu Baishui, "Chu Langzhong! ”
Chu Baishui turned around and saw that it was He Mai and Liulang, except for the surprise in his eyes, he nodded to them, "Brother Yang, sister-in-law Yang." ”
By this time the carriage had gone in some direction, and a moment after hearing the shouts of the wheat, the plain white hand appeared along the side of the window and opened the curtain.
The eyes in the carriage saw the figure of Rokuro, and also saw some of Hemai's covered face.
He Mai's attention was not on the carriage, but greeted Chu Baishui with a smile: "Chu Langzhong, but go home?" ”
"Yes, I'm going home." Chu Baishui bowed his head lightly, "Brother Yang, sister-in-law Yang, is this going up the mountain to pay respects?" Just now, I saw that many people from the village had come down from the mountains. ”
"Yes, most of the graves in the village are on the hills." He Mai nodded, the cold food festival does not move the fire, is Chu Langzhong ready for cold food?
"Not yet," Chu Baishui smiled embarrassedly, "Yesterday I went to Uncle Tian's house to practice medicine, and I was busy all day, and I didn't want to prepare cold food. I met the old man today and said a few words, but I didn't think it was time for dinner. ”
He Mai said: "I guess you weren't prepared either. It just so happened that we went home together, and I prepared a lot of cold fruits and cold porridge, which were not delicious, but how could they be satisfied. ”
Chu Baishui thought about it for a while, and gave another salute, "In this way, I will disturb Brother Yang and Sister-in-law Yang." ”
The three of them went home, Chu Baishui sat down to talk to Liulang, He Mai took the cold porridge and cold fruit into the house, and took the herbal tea brewed early in the morning for the two of them to drink.
"I saw Brother Chu get down from the carriage just now, but in the carriage are Brother Chu's old acquaintances?" Rokuro asked.
"Yes, it's an old man." Chu Baishui nodded, and Chong Liulang smiled a little apologetically, "This old person has a special identity, I can't say too much about her, forgive me." ”
Liulang smiled generously, "I just asked casually, Brother Chu is serious." ”
He Mai remembered what Chu Baishui said and asked him, "Chu Langzhong went to Uncle Tianwu's house yesterday?" But Xiao Wu's body is uncomfortable? ”
"No, it's not Xiao Wu, it's Aunt Zhao Xiang'er." Chu Baishui said, "Recently, Aunt Zhao Xiang'er has been unwell, but she refuses to go to the doctor. Xiao Wu, that child was sensible, and went to my house to find me to check on his mother, and I went. ”
"It's not a big deal, is it?" He Mai asked.
"It's just a physical discomfort caused by the sudden warm weather, and it's not a big deal. I prescribed some heat-clearing herbs and I was fine. ”
Speaking of the sudden warm weather, He Mai chatted with Liulang about setting up a porridge stall again, never thought that Chu Baishui used to have a strong interest in porridge and food, so he opened the conversation box with such a chat, and talked straight to the willow tops on the moon.
"Brother Chu has dinner here, there is still a lot of food left at home, and it will save you from going back to work." He Mai said with a smile.
This Chu Baishui seems to have a very different personality from Xu Jiang, but in fact, he is a single man who is a bachelor, and he is far from qualified in taking care of himself.
Seeing He Mai say this, Chu Baishui turned his head a little embarrassed, "In this way, I'm tired of Sister-in-law Yang." ”
took out the cold porridge, and the tender cake dishes prepared yesterday were placed on the table, and the three of them chatted while eating, and before they knew it, it was already dark.
At this time, a person rushed in from outside the door, and it was He Lin.
He Lin's face was panicked, and after pushing the door open, he panted and shouted to the three people in the house: "Something's wrong, something's wrong!" Chu Langzhong, you come with me, Hemai, Liulang, you also follow me! ”
"Brother!" He Mai called out to He Lin who was in a hurry, "Don't worry, say slowly, what's going on?" ”
"Second Uncle...... was beaten half to death by Li Zheng's people! ”
"What!?" He Mai gasped in shock, "What about He Miao?" ”
"After Li Zheng's people injured the second uncle, they also took He Miao away!" He Lin panicked, "Grandma is now at the second uncle's house, the second uncle has fainted, if you don't go, I'm afraid it's too late!" ”
Chu Baishui heard that the situation was so serious, he didn't have time to wait for them, so he directly picked up the medicine box on the table and rushed out of the room.
Although He Mai was a little flustered, he quickly calmed down.
The three of them went out and ran straight to Lin's house.
……
……
Lin Changxi's legs were beaten and his flesh and blood were blurred, and he fainted on the spot.
According to a villager who saw him, the thugs who rushed to the door of Lin's house at that time were all fierce and vicious, holding sticks in their hands, and their purpose was very clear.
At that time, there seemed to be outsiders in the Lin family's house, and after a while, a few people escaped with their heads in their arms, and the first one was a lame fat man, who ran away without a trace when he screamed out of the door.
Then there was constant shouting and wailing in the house, and after a while, He Miao was taken out by several thugs and taken to the carriage outside the door.
"Report to the official, report to the official!!" Qin's anxious tears flowed, "My Miao Miao was captured by that gang, how can I do it if I don't report to the official?" ”
The nearest county office is in Qinghe Town, if you report to the official, you should set off immediately, and you will not be able to reach Qinghe Town until about dawn.
