On the second day, it was still noon, and I listened to the chaos in the east of the village, and the west side of the village was against Qiyang Mountain, so the only way to enter the village was at the east end.

Zhuang Meiyan helped her mother bask in the sun in the yard, thoughtfully helping her beat her legs, and the old lady squinted her eyes comfortably, looking like she was about to fall asleep.

"Miss, little--sister. ”

Chunju ran into the garden in a panic, Zhuang Meiyan raised her head and waved her hand, Chunju didn't dare to make a loud noise when she saw the scene, and immediately lowered her voice and said, "Miss, someone is here." Li San was at the entrance of the village, and he brought a lot of people, and the old village chief also led the young and middle-aged people in the village to block the entrance of the village and not let them enter, and the two families were facing each other. What now?"

Zhuang Meiyan smiled slightly, got up and pinched her mother's shoulder, and beat and hammered.

Chunju was anxious, and circled left and right around Zhuang Meiyan.

"Well, Miss, when is this, you have an idea. Li San was clamoring for someone, and the village chief asked me to urge you to get people away as soon as possible, so that Li San would have no excuse. ”

Zhuang Meiyan sighed and told Chunju to help her mother into the house, and walked out of the courtyard without hurrying.

The intersection at the east end of the village was crowded with people. On one side, the old village chief led the young hunters in the village, holding hunting knives and bows and arrows, and on the other hand, Li San led a large group of big men with big shoulders and round waists, all holding long knives in their hands, with fierce faces, obviously not good. The two families did not move for the time being, but just quarreled with each other, and the atmosphere was very tense, and there was a tendency to break out.

When people saw Zhuang Meiyan coming, the noise stopped slightly and shifted their attention to Zhuang Meiyan. Although everyone around was watching, and there were tigers and wolves watching, Zhuang Meiyan's face was as usual, and his breathing pace was not half disordered, and he walked steadily to the middle.

At this time, Zhuang Meiyan saw that among Li San and them, there was a man who was quite eye-catching. He was thin and weak, his face was quite white, and he was wearing a long white placket, looking like a scholar, but the long coat had not been washed for a long time, and it was stained with a lot of dirt. He looked frightened, as if he was ashamed, and kept his head down, not daring to look at anyone. He folded his hands in his sleeves and leaned over them, keeping his voice silent. If it weren't for Li San and the others squeezing in front of them, they would have turned around and fled.

When Li San saw Zhuang Meiyan coming, he suddenly looked excited, screamed strangely, and pushed the scholar-like person standing in front of him. The scholar was not wary, and one staggered in front of Zhuang Meiyan's toes.

"Phew!" Li San spat at him viciously and said, "You are a wreck, you have won Lao Tzu's silver for nothing, tell this stinky girl, whose woman is your wife now?"

"Yes, Xiao Ke's lady......" He said tremblingly, halfway through his words, he suddenly felt embarrassed, and turned his head to look at Li San with a begging face.

Li San looked at him contemptuously, kicked him without raising his leg coldly, completely trampled him under his feet, and said fiercely: "What did you just say?

"Daddy!" came the crisp voice of a child from the crowd, and I saw a five or six-year-old unkempt child squeezing out of the crowd, crying and rushing at the scholar, while struggling to break the big foot that was stepping on the scholar's back with those small hands.

There was no trace of pity on Li San's hateful face, but the people of "Phoenix Village" couldn't stand it and talked about it.

The scholar was afraid of scaring the child, so he shamefully squeezed a few words out of his teeth.

"Yes, yes, it's Brother Li's wife, Xiao Ke made a slip of the tongue for a while, and atoned for his sins. ”

Li San couldn't stand his sour anger, so he kicked him away impatiently, raised a note in his hand at Zhuang Meiyan, and said proudly: "Do you see clearly? Hand over the woman, or don't blame us for being rude!"

Zhuang Meiyan didn't look at him, only smiled slightly, and spread his hands. Said: "People, who are they?"

Li San was furious, pointed and scolded: "Don't pretend garlic for Lao Tzu, it's the woman who works in your house, Feng Wuniang." ”

Zhuang Meiyan pretended to frown in confusion, and only after a long time did she suddenly come to her senses: "Ah! You mean Sister-in-law Yang! Hugh is going to mention it! Yesterday, the woman woke up from a coma for a long time, and when she woke up, she didn't even recognize anyone, and she was so crazy that she couldn't look like her. Don't believe me? See for yourself. ”

Li San's face was full of suspicion, he looked at Zhuang Meiyan, and then at the hostile eyes around him, hesitated for a while, but said to the scholar lying on the ground: "Hey, Yang Wencai, you go and bring people out for me." ”

Yang Xiucai's face was full of shame and he refused to go for anything.

At this moment, a barefoot woman walked out of the village, her hair was messy, stained with a lot of straw, and her eyes were looking straight ahead, lifeless. She was like a walking corpse, and if it weren't for the little white man leading her with a stick in front of her, she wouldn't know where to go.

As soon as Yang Xiucai saw this person, he couldn't help but shout: "Mother--son! Wu Niang, Wu Niang, you, what's wrong with you? It's all wrong with the clumsy husband, it's the clumsy husband who hurt you? You, you beat me, you scold me! I'm not a human, I'm not a human!"

Seeing that his good lady had become so demented, Yang Xiucai was ashamed and distressed, holding his wife's hand and telling constantly. But the wife was indifferent to this, and her eyes just looked ahead, and she didn't move her eyes. The youngest son also stepped forward to hug his mother's leg and cried: "Mother, mother, I'm You'er, why don't you speak?"

If Sister-in-law Yang hates Yang Xiucai in her heart, it is reasonable to ignore him, but when a mother sees her son, she can't take her eyes off her eyes and her face is not moved.

Everyone feels compassion for this situation, and sympathy arises spontaneously.

Li San's face was full of impatience, he glanced at the indifferent sister-in-law Yang, and then at the smiling Xiaobai next to him, and immediately concluded that the two of them were all the way, and suddenly felt a little breathless, and asked: "Hey, Xiucai, didn't you say that your family is a crazy woman, this crazy man, you still blackmail me for so much money, do you have a conscience?"

The thief bit into the bone for three points, Yang Xiucai was inexplicably sad and angry, and had the heart to reason with him, but he knew that he was at fault first, so he could only sigh heavily, squatting on the ground with his head in his hands, and pitiful for a dignified man, who was forced to cry bitterly.

Li San didn't give up, and said: "Phew! It's so fucking frustrating! Count Lao Tzu on his back, Lao Tzu doesn't want this cumbersome goods, you return the fifty taels of silver to Lao Tzu, let's clear the two." ”

Yang Xiucai choked up.

Seeing this, Zhuang Meiyan accosted him: "This Brother Li, let me say a word." ”

Li San turned his face to look at her, there was obviously some distrust in his eyes, but he said, "You say." ”

Zhuang Meiyan said: "According to Meiyan, this talented brother looks quite embarrassed, if he wants to take out the silver immediately, I'm afraid it will be difficult, why don't you let him get the silver together in a while, you say?"

Li San pondered for a moment and said, "Okay! Then let's do it tomorrow." ”

Chunju couldn't hold her breath and blurted out: "How can it be done tomorrow? You have to allow people to take a breath when you kill someone, at least you can't give a month to make money." ”

Zhuang Meiyan shouted: "Don't talk too much, you step back first." ”

Chunju didn't dare to talk to her own young lady, and silently took a step back.
