The thin woman led the two sisters around the reeds a few times, and the two of them were dizzy and couldn't distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, so they came out.

Beyond the reeds is a large clearing.

A tall wooden platform was erected in the clearing.

A house was erected on the stage.

The walls of the house are full of windows, and straw curtains made of reeds and oranges hang from the windows.

Wang Xian looked at it and pouted: "Why is there a red silk hanging on the top again, is there a stage to build?" ”

The thin woman sneered, ignored Wang Xian, and only beckoned to a few women standing by the wooden steps: "These two are handed over to the two of you, take them up." ”

Two women gathered around, and one pointed to the wooden steps and said, "The feast is ready, and the two ladies will go up and enjoy it." ”

The other bent down and pulled the skirts of the two, and said with a smile: "These two are good-looking, they should sit on the north seat." ”

What is the north seat and the south seat, it is useless to eat a meal.

Wang Xian rolled her eyes, pulled Lan E over, and walked up the wooden steps with her head held high.

There were no tables or chairs on the high platform, only red felt all over the floor.

More than a dozen little ladies sat on the ground, and each of them had a large plate of meat rice and a large plate of fresh fruits and vegetables in front of them.

Lan E frowned slightly.

These little ladies are wearing silk and satin, and they look very noble, but they sit in a crooked posture and make a sound with food, obviously not from everyone.

This is a woman chosen from among the common people.

Lan E glanced at it a few times, then remained silent and pulled Wang Xian to sit down on an empty seat.

Wang Xian was hungry and panicked, and when she saw the food, she was holding a bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and muttered while picking up rice in her mouth: "It's strange, it's stupid to invite someone to a banquet and choose this kind of place." ”

Lan E didn't move.

She rolled her eyes to look around.

The two women led them up and stood at the entrance of the steps. It seems like waiting to serve the people, but ...... Footpacing, more like surveillance.

Wang Xian was on the right, Lan E turned her face to look to the left, and there was a little lady with red and swollen eyes on the left, who was eating and crying while carrying a meal.

Lan'e quietly moved to her side and asked in a low voice, "What are you crying about, if you want to go home, go to the witch and say that she can still force you?" ”

The little lady looked at Lan E, then at Wang Xian, snorted, covered her mouth with a bowl and said, "You don't know, the most ruthless thing here is Da Wu." She colluded with the county keeper to collect taxes from the people, and some of the money collected was handed over to the county guard, and some of the money was divided with the temple lord Tingyuan. ”

Divide the money...... Does it have anything to do with her crying?

Lan'e was a little stupid.

About this lady was so suffocated that she couldn't stop the conversation as soon as she opened it, and after saying this, she pointed to the ladies who were eating around her and said, "We are all picked out by the big witch." The great witch said that if the appearance is good-looking, then he should be the daughter-in-law of the river god, so he asked us to come, sew new clothes, and build a fasting house by the river, and then raise good food and vegetables, and wait until the divination is divined, and the marriage period is set, we ...... We'll sit on the mats and float in the river......"

Next to her, Wang Xian burped, put down the clean rice bowl, and stuffed another bowl to Lan E: "Eat, I've tasted it, it's not poisonous." After saying this, he took the words of this lady again: "Your name is Ai Niang, I heard them call you Ai Niang when I came in just now." ”

Ai Niang held the rice bowl and nodded.

"Ai Niang." Wang Xian asked very seriously: "How long can I float in the river while sitting on a mat?" Isn't this a search for death! ”

Wang Xian did not make a low sound, on the contrary, her voice was very loud.

The faces of the ladies sitting on the ground changed when they heard this, and they put down the dishes and chopsticks and stood up.

Lan'e supports her forehead, this is also ruthless!

Wang Xian didn't pay attention to others, she only looked at Ai Niang, and continued with great interest: "I heard you say that the county keeper levies taxes, and the witch uses taxes to give the river god's daughter-in-law, everyone in the world is stupid, if the river god really marries a wife, can he marry a mortal girl?" This is a lie to you to death! ”

When the little ladies stood up, the two women standing at the mouth of the steps felt that something was wrong, and when they heard Wang Xian's loud voice again, the two women's faces suddenly changed.

The two looked at each other.

One of them raised his eyebrows, pointed at Wang Xian and said, "It's nonsense, don't shut up quickly." ”

The other raised his hand on his waist and pulled out a black rattan whip, and shook it in the air, and came forward with a cruel smile: "I see that this little lady is full, and let me help her down." ”

It's too late.

Lan E simply sat still.

If she doesn't move, Wang Xian won't move.

"Bold!" Wang Xian suddenly stretched out her hand to copy it, whether it was meat or rice, grabbed the dish and smashed it, shouting in a sharp voice while smashing: "I am the eldest daughter of the Jinyang County Guard, which of you dares to be rude to me?" ”

Ouch! The eldest daughter of the county guard!

Lan E stopped supporting her forehead, and instead raised her hand to cover her face.

She has made thousands of calculations, and Wang Xian is not only straightforward, happy, and rough-eyed, but also crazy sometimes.

Wang Xian shouted out in this voice, and the stage was silent for a while.

The woman with the rattan whip looked at the two sisters suspiciously, then turned back to the other woman and asked, "Who brought these two back?" ”

The other woman's eyes were glazed, and she didn't seem to have come back to her senses, but only muttered mechanically: "It's the Great Witch, it's the Great Witch." ”

Hearing this, he raised the whip to her, and ordered coldly: "Since you are the person picked by the big witch, you go to the big witch, and then call someone to send these little ladies back." ”

In fact, before she could say it, when Wang Xian began to throw dishes and chopsticks, all the ladies squeezed me and hid from the high platform.

The other woman hurried down the steps.

The one who took the whip glanced at the two sisters, and also lifted the whip and retreated to the wooden steps, looking at the posture, he was ready to wait for the order from above.

She waited, Lan'e didn't want to sit in front of the mess.

Lan E patted the rice grains on her sleeve and stood up, grabbed Wang Xian and said, "Don't you have a pain in your neck, let's go back too." ”

Yes! If people can go, so can the sisters.

Wang Xian pulled Lan E to stand up, and the two walked to the top of the ladder, not looking at the woman, but only holding their heads high.

The woman with the whip did not stop her, but stayed far behind her.

When I got to the audience, sure enough, another woman silently stepped forward to lead the way.

The sisters went back to the room where they had been staying.

About two or three miles away from the high platform is the river embankment.

At this time, two carriages were parked on the embankment.

An Niang hung her head and stood beside the carriage decorated with red jewels, sweat beading on her fat face, as if half of her collar was wet.

The collar was sticky and greasy, but An Niang didn't dare to wipe it, so she only said in a loud voice to the car curtain: "When I saw these two people, their clothes were tattered, and they looked like flowers begging for food, so I started." ”

As soon as the curtain moved, Da Wu poked his head out of the car window, stared at An Niang with a pair of bulging fish bubble eyes, stared at it for a while, and then sat back again, humming and asking, "The big one said that she is the eldest daughter of the Jinyang County Guard, how to explain this?" ”

I caught someone before, but I didn't catch it. If you really look into it, you ordered these two to be caught!

At this time, something happened and I wanted to find someone to make a scapegoat.

It's really ruthless.

Bah!

An Niang scolded in her heart, but said in her mouth: "I think this little lady is scared and deliberately lies to deceive people, how can the big witch take it seriously?" ”

The Great Witch narrowed his eyes and seemed to agree very much: "In this way, this lady is cunning, the river god will not like it, you don't have to wait for the sacrifice, you will dispose of her tonight." ”

To dispose of it is to put it to death.

When the time comes, it doesn't matter if she is the daughter of the county guard, there will be no way to prove it once she dies.

An Niang's face was a little happy, so she dared to wipe her sweat, and nodded while wiping: "Yes, yes, everything respects the orders of the great witch." ”

The Great Witch raised his hand and put the curtain down, and said quietly: "Go and do it." ”

An Niang bowed and retreated.

Seeing that she panicked into the reeds, the curtain of the carriage behind her was lifted, and Miao Zhu showed a fat face from the window, and asked in a loud voice: "Jinyang County Shou is the Wang family, do you really want to deal with this woman?" Don't ask anyone? ”

Da Wu smiled gloomily in his car, there was no sarcasm in his smile, and he also said loudly: "What if it's a person from the Wang family? After tonight, who would know that the daughter of the Wang family had come here. ”
