Chapter 467 - Another Storm (1)
At about the same moment, Qin Liusu finished eating, and Uncle Sun also woke up, but he sat on the threshold alone and smoked, and he didn't talk to anyone.
Aunt Sun is busy feeding the chickens and ducks, where can she care about anything else.
"Uncle, uncle......"
Qin Liusu screamed a lot, and this Uncle Sun came back to his senses.
"What? What do you want me to do? ”
"You don't eat all the time? My aunt and I have left some food in the pot, and it's still hot, so you can go and eat some quickly, so as not to be hungry at night. ”
Qin Liusu put down the vegetables in his hand, thinking about something.
Uncle Sun knocked on the cigarette stick, sighed, and went to the kitchen to get some food.
Aunt Sun put down the basin in her hand and said to Qin Liusu, "Didn't you bump into something today?" ”
The two of them giggled at one end, and Uncle Sun was a little unate.
Out of the kitchen, Uncle Sun beckoned to Qin Liusu.
"When I have nothing to do with Ming'er, I will repair your kang for you, in the past few years, my child has gone, and the house is so abandoned, and there is no time to repair and repair it, now that you live here, it is not good to let you live in this bed with wooden planks."
Qin Liusu nodded, this is also true, it has been a little uncomfortable to sleep on that plank in the past few days.
"Then there's Uncle Lao...... By the way, and ......"
As if thinking of something, Qin Liusu quickly opened his mouth.
"I don't know whether to say it or not, this donkey's shed uncle still has to be built as soon as possible, and this courtyard, I also feel that it is necessary to renovate it, and it is not a big deal, but this morning when I went to the river to wash clothes, I heard that Sister Ni said that the house was stolen, and now, there are still these chickens and ducks at home, and I feel a little uneasy."
"That's right, when I went to the field today, I also heard about it, but it doesn't seem to have reported to the official?"
Qin Liusu said while doing his work and listening to the second elder of the Sun family.
"It was said that Brother Ni was working outside here, but Sister Ni couldn't hold the idea, and she didn't know the government, so she wanted to wait for her father-in-law to come back and make plans."
Qin Liusu sighed, feeling a little sad in his heart.
Uncle Sun felt that what Qin Liusu said was reasonable, so he agreed, turned around and entered the room, and lay down.
It was also a lot late, Qin Liusu was lying on the wooden board, thinking of the figure she saw with Niu Niu in the back mountain today, her heart became more and more uneasy, and a fear wrapped her up, a little breathless.
In the end, he was still tired, and within an hour, Qin Liusu fell asleep, but he slept extremely unsteadily, but he also missed the woman's screams.
Like a few days ago, Qin Liusu got up early, made breakfast, and went to the river with a wooden barrel, and a woman in light blue clothes beside him hurriedly passed by, Qin Liusu looked at it, and then found that it was yesterday's woman.
"Where is Sister Ni going? Why is there such a hurry? ”
The woman's hands and feet were trembling all the time, and she couldn't speak clearly.
"Something's wrong...... Something is wrong...... I haven't come back to my house yet......"
Qin Liusu also chuckled in his heart, "But what is the delay, living in Baicheng?" ”
The woman shook her head desperately, tears welling up in her eyes.
Qin Liusu didn't keep it, and let her go early.
Behind him, Niu Da led the carriage and ran in a hurry, as for Qin Liusu, he didn't even look at it.
Qin Liusu was suspicious in his heart, "Didn't someone die?" ”
But he shook his head again, "Bah! What a good way to curse people! ”
I went to the river with the barrel in my arms, and in the distance, I saw Niu Niu squatting on the rock.
"Niu Niu, you came quite early today?"
Niu Niu's face was a little pale, and there were heavy dark circles under her eyes.
"Where is the early riser? It was clear that I didn't sleep all night last night. ”
Qin Liusu's eyes widened, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Niu Niu looked at the women who were talking and laughing beside her, closed her mouth, Qin Liusu was at ease, and she didn't speak in a tacit understanding, and the two didn't talk until they finished washing their clothes and walked on the way home.
"Sister Qin, I was scared to death last night!"
Seeing that Niu Niu was about to cry, Qin Liusu's mother-like feelings in her heart were stimulated, "What the hell is going on?" Tell me what to say. ”
Niu Niu wiped her tears, still palpitating.
"I was the same as usual last night, coaxing my sister to sleep early, and I felt that the vendor who collected the slices was about to come these days, so I sat at the window and played the slices by the moonlight, and when I sat down, I felt that the light became dim, and when I looked up, I was going to scare me to death!"
"What's wrong?"
Qin Liusu held Niu Niu's hand, and Niu Niu seemed to be encouraged, so she continued.
"I saw a figure standing outside my window, not moving, and I screamed in fright, and then my brother came and saw no more of it."
Niu Niu patted her chest and held Qin Liusu's hand tightly, Qin Liusu was a little painful, but she still didn't let go.
"Since you found out about this, you put your two younger siblings at home, you can rest assured?"
"It's fine, my big brother is still at home."
"However, I clearly saw that your eldest brother followed that eldest sister Ni to Baicheng."
Niu Niu put down the barrel in her hand suddenly, only to say that it was broken, and ran away, Qin Liusu couldn't catch up.
Niu Niu rushed into the house, looking for the child's figure everywhere, and kept shouting for the child in her mouth, but there was no movement, and at that time, Niu Niu panicked.
Qin Liusu returned home and was about to put down the barrel and go to find Niu Niu, but he heard a timid voice behind him calling him.
"Sister......
Qin Liusu turned around, and then saw the two children standing in front of him in a dignified manner, squatting down, picking up the two children and running outside.
It is also strange to say that Qin Liusu, who has no strength on weekdays, has infinite strength today, holding the two children and running away, and his speed has not decreased at all.
The two children were very confused, so they let Qin Liusu run away with him.
Running to Niu's house, Qin Liusu put down the two children in his arms, a little out of breath, rested against the wall, and happened to meet Niu Niu who was running out.
Seeing the two children intact, Niu Niu finally couldn't help crying, and Qin Liusu didn't stop her, letting her cry.
After a while, Niu Niu was almost crying, and then she taught the two children a lesson.
"Where have you been? How can you make my sister so worried? ”
Niu San wiped Niu Niu's tears and said: "Sister, don't cry, it's not good to look good if you cry, the eldest brother said that he had something to do today, so he sent us to Uncle Sun's house, so we can stay for ......"
Niu Niu exhaled and stood up, Qin Liusu laughed, "I also know that you are worried, so I hurriedly carried the two children and sent them over, I don't know what it was last night, although it is this day, it is still a little unsafe, why don't you go to my house first, let's think about this other reason?" ”
Niu Niu agreed, took her younger siblings' little hands and followed Qin Liusu forward, experiencing yesterday's events, but it made her a little scared.
Qin Liusu led Niu Niu back to his home, poured a glass of water and handed it to Niu Niu, and let the children go to the courtyard to play by themselves.
Niu Niu drank a glass of water, and her mood recovered, and she also looked around.
"Why didn't you see the figure of the uncle and aunt?"
Qin Liusu replied with a smile: "Uncle went to the field early to water the soybeans. ”
Niu Niu sighed, if it weren't for the death of her parents, she wouldn't be afraid to stay at home today.
"Think about it, what happened last night?"
Niu Niu thought for a while, "That is, I said it to you, and the others are gone, but the figure flashed quickly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, I don't think it was an evil thing?" ”
Qin Liusu touched the hairpin on his head, and thought in his heart: "It's not like it, the figure I saw in the back mountain yesterday, what did Niu Niu see last night, isn't it artificial?" ”
Qin Liusu was secretly thinking to herself, and was thinking about whether to tell her about the figure she saw in the back mountain yesterday, thinking about it, it was better to forget it, so as not to worry her.
Niu Da and Ni hurriedly went to the county office, Ling Muhan has been very idle recently, and no one has reported the case, so the old things have been entrusted to the master Bo and Fu County Cheng to do it, and he alone and the little guy wandered around the streets and cities of Baicheng, looking for some delicious food.
Niu Da carried this Ni to the county office, and Ni picked up the mallet and beat the drum placed in front of the door.
Hearing the movement outside, Fu Xiancheng ran out in a hurry, thinking that there was finally something to do, thinking about it, and showing it on his face.
Fu Xiancheng beckoned the two into the lobby, asked the purpose of the two's coming, and instructed the master to record it word for word, and got a roll of the eyes of the master Bo.
Ni Shi breathed a sigh of relief, swallowed his saliva, and then said, "My lord, I want to report to the official!" ”
The attached county Cheng drank a glass of water, "I naturally know that you are going to report to the official, but, what are you talking about?" ”
"The slave family has two cases to report, one is that the slave family entered the thief the day before yesterday and stole something,"
Fu Xiancheng blew some hot tea, "But what else are you missing?" ”
"Except for some tattered clothes, it seems that there has never been, but the house has been turned into a lot of messes."
Ni Shi thought about it carefully, and then replied, "There is a place in the house that has not been checked, I don't know if there is anything missing......
Fu Xiancheng fell into deep thought.
"And what is this second case?"
Ni began to cry and cry.
"The slave family hasn't come back last night, at first the slave thought that the road was delayed, but the slave family waited all night and didn't wait for the husband to come back, and he was also very flustered, wondering if something happened to that person?"
Fu Xiancheng was most tired of this woman crying, and as soon as he cried, he couldn't stand it.
Fu Xiancheng covered his ears and said in a somewhat anxious tone.
"The court allowed you to cry and cry, and you talked about it carefully, why did you get killed?"
Ni couldn't cry early, Niu Da knelt under this hall and took over.
"My lord, it's not clear that this Ni clan wants to come like this, so it's up to me to say it."
Fu Xiancheng nodded, "Then who is in this hall?" ”
"The villain is the neighbor of this woman, last night my eldest brother did not return overnight, this is also a rare thing, you must know that my eldest brother is very good to my sister-in-law, never returned overnight, today my sister-in-law got up early, and found that there was a tool for my eldest brother to do work at the door, but I didn't see anyone coming, I searched all around, and I didn't see anyone coming, I thought it was where I went, but I didn't come back after waiting for a long time, and there were some blood stains on the tools for doing work, so I was worried."
I think it's the same, maybe I've done work and come and go somewhere, but what kind of traces are these bloodstains?
"In this case, you go and inform the county lieutenant Zhang and ask him to bring a few people with him."
Fu Xiancheng instructed the official beside him, and the official answered and went out to find the county lieutenant.
At this time, Ling Muhan, who was wandering around, finally came back, and the shepherd boy behind him was crying with a sad face, and his hands were full of many things.
"Why is it so lively?"
Ling Muhan did it with a big grin, Fu Xiancheng's face was not very tight, and he looked hard, Ling Muhan knew that there was a case, closed his mouth, and watched the show.
Not long after, County Lieutenant Zhang came sweating profusely.
Niu Da and Ni returned to Gufeng Village with the county lieutenant Zhang.
Niu Niu's family stayed at Qin Liusu's house for a while, and when they saw that the sun was rising, they led the two children back.
