Chapter VIII: Complaints

The people of the Tsing Yi camp have been in the village for a few days, and the whole village is worried.

No one dares to make trouble, for fear of being approached by the Tsing Yi battalion.

That's deadly.

Especially after someone in the village was arrested, the big guy's heart was even more relieved.

Originally, the past two days were quite calm, and everyone thought that the people in the Tsing Yi camp might leave in a few days.

When I got up early that day, everything was as usual, and I hadn't heard of anyone calling Tsing Yi Camp to come to the door.

Everyone got up early as usual, cleaned the house, and cooked by the way.

The morning in the village was very quiet, no one walked on the street, and from a distance, I saw curling smoke coming from the chimneys of every house.

Five or six people from the Tsing Yi battalion came to the door of Tan's house with long knives on their waists, and the youngest boy who walked in front went over and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Tan Bi was waiting for the family's donkey to graze, and when he heard a knock on the door, he hurriedly opened the door.

When the door opened, he saw a stranger in brocade standing at the door.

When I saw that kind of costume, Tan Bi's frightened legs trembled a little.

"Everyone, gentlemen, you are ......"

Before he could finish asking, he was pulled aside.

Tsing Yiwei swaggered into the courtyard.

The Wang family, who was still scolding quietly when he was cooking, didn't dare to show his head when he saw these Tsing Yi guards.

Zhou was even more frightened and shrunk into the house and didn't dare to come out.

Tan Sang was also scared in his heart, but he was the head of the family, so he had to show his face at this time.

He had a smile on his face: "What advice do you have for your officials to come to the Humble House?" ”

No one answered the conversation, and a few Tsing Yi guards began to search the yard with cold faces, and then they were about to enter the house.

Just when Tan Qi came out, he hurriedly cheered up when he saw this scene: "It's cold today, you guys hurry up and sit in the house, warm up first." ”

He avoided the wing room where he lived, and directly invited Tsing Yi Wei to the main room.

He spoke loudly, and Jiang Ying, who was in the house, also heard it.

Jiang Ying instantly understood what was going on.

It should be Jiang Ying stealing meat to eat, and then the quarrel with Tan Sang and the Wang family was known to Tsing Yiwei, and Tsing Yiwei felt that her behavior was obviously inconsistent with the rumors, so he came to the door to take a look.

A few Tsing Yi guards were actually very cold.

Who wants to toss early in the morning, isn't it fragrant to sleep lazily in the warm quilt.

But someone was looking for trouble, and they had to come this time.

After all, there is an order from above, and all those who do not match their usual temperament must be found out, and it is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let go of one.

There was a death order, and Tsing Yiwei did not dare not be unwilling.

"Let's go inside."

The Tsing Yi guard who took the lead raised his feet and entered the house.

Tan Qi hurriedly shouted: "Daughter-in-law, don't be angry, hurry up and boil water to make tea to entertain distinguished guests." ”

As soon as he shouted, the suspicion in Tsing Yiwei's heart disappeared a little.

Jiang Ying said dryly in the house.

She pulled her hair together and came out with a change of clothes.

As soon as Jiang Ying came out, the youngest Tsing Yi Wei looked at her.

She glanced back with a big grin, then went outside to pick up some firewood, walked to the small stove, Jiang Ying was very familiar with the fire, and added water to the clay pot and put it on the stove to burn.

When boiling water, she washed the pottery bowl used at home, put some wild tea stored at home, and when the water boiled, Jiang Ying made tea very neatly and served it.

She put the tea on the table of the Eight Immortals in the house, didn't say a word, and was about to leave with the red lacquered wooden tray.

"Wait."

A Tsing Yi guard, who was in his thirties and looked the most calm, called Jiang Ying.

Jiang Ying stopped and looked back, with a hint of a silly smile on his face: "What did the official tell me to do?" Not enough tea? ”

"What nonsense." Tan Sang came over and scolded Jiang Ying: "The women's family is here to be an eyesore, don't you hurry back to ......"

Jiang Ying bit her lip and wanted to be patient, but she couldn't bear it: "Dad's words are not right, I clearly boiled tea to entertain guests, how can it become an eyesore, let me go out, just say it, say what to do, I won't get out." ”

It's good to talk about mulberry gas, and I can't get up in a breath.

Tan Qi lowered his head and hid the smile in his eyes: "Daughter-in-law, there's nothing for you to do here, you can go back first." ”

Jiang Ying shook his head: "I don't." ”

She walked up to the calm Tsing Yi Wei and said in a loud voice: "Since the official is here, then he will be the master with me, and also help me evaluate the theory, I am newly married to the Tan family, and I have never eaten a full meal when I get married, so it is easy for my father to come to see me, and he also brought a knife of meat, just to make up for my body, but last night my father-in-law bullied people, and put a good meat in front of me, only let me see that I will not be allowed to eat, the official said, does he look down on my Jiang family in his heart?" If you don't want me to eat it, just don't do it, he secretly ate it himself, I can't see it, and he won't say anything, but he only lets me see it......"

While speaking, Jiang Ying wiped his tears: "Didn't you look at our family and be honest and honest, just don't take me in your eyes, I'm really angry, I secretly took out the meat and ate it at night, he and my mother-in-law got up early to find out, pointed at my nose and scolded, and said that they wanted to take me home, official, why can't I eat my own meat?" When I was not married, my father said that it was good to talk about the family, and also said that my father-in-law was the most kind-hearted, saying that his family was prosperous, and I came to eat and drink, so I coaxed me to agree to this family business, who expected him to talk about the family to deceive my father, and bully me. ”

"That's not the case."

Tan Qi looked anxious and wanted to step forward to argue.

Tsing Yi Wei glared at him, and he quickly took a step back in fright.

Tan Sang was also a little afraid to step forward.

Wang was even more frightened and shrank aside like a quail.

Tsing Yiwei made a look of injustice: "Oh? That Jiang Niangzi was really wronged. ”

Jiang Ying can be regarded as meeting a bosom friend, and began to vomit bitterness: "It's strange that you are an official, you are indeed a clear debate between right and wrong, official, don't hide it from you, I really regret marrying now, rather than marrying someone and being wronged, it is better to be an old girl at home, at least I don't have to work at home, I can eat whatever I want, my father and mother never scolded me, I really regret listening to my father's words, and making a virtuous and weak appearance, which made the Sang family calculate me, that is, I know that now, I should have lived in the spirit of nature, that is, happy and comfortable." ”

The young Tsing Yiwei on the side couldn't help but ask: "Can Mrs. Jiang work at home?" Isn't that unusual? ”

Jiang Ying smiled: "I will also boil water to make a tea or something, my mother said that this is a row of noodles, there are guests at home who can be used to show off, so that people know that I am a neat and diligent person, as for others, I am really not very good, my mother will make clothes, and my father is there for the meals at home, where can I be used." ”

Her innocent appearance made several Tsing Yi guards also relaxed.

"Mrs. Jiang is indeed wronged."

The calm Tsing Yiwei drank tea with a smile and got up: "But it is difficult for Qing officials to cut off family affairs, and we are not good at interfering in other family affairs, if Mrs. Jiang is angry, go back to your parents for help, it's not too early, we say goodbye." ”

Jiang Ying reluctantly followed Tan Qi to send Tsing Yiwei to the door: "Official, how long are you going to live in the village?" Will it be the New Year? According to me, it's better for you to stay for a while, and with you here, the village is quiet, and my father-in-law doesn't dare to scold me too much. ”

Such a sentence amused several Tsing Yi guards again.

When the people were sent away, as soon as the courtyard door was closed, Tan Sang's angry hand pointed at Jiang Ying and was speechless.
