Chapter 64: Burning the House

Hongluan's return to Shenjia Village is estimated to be already in the middle of the day, and it is already dark halfway up.

The coachman and the two accompanying ladies made preparations early in the morning, brought lanterns, sent Hongluan to the door of Yingxueju, and watched Hongluan enter the mansion before leaving.

In the courtyard, Ding Xiaolian was cursing when she saw that Hongluan didn't come back so late, and as soon as Hongluan appeared at the corner door, she picked up a stick and greeted her.

", are you tired of waiting for Miss Ben, do you want to run away or what?" Ding Xiaolian raised a stick to smoke while scolding, and Hongluan pounced over with tears streaming down her face, "Miss~~Miss~~ It's really good to see you, woo woo, the slave almost can't come back!"

Seeing that Hongluan's hair was messy and trembling, and she looked frightened, Ding Xiaolian couldn't bear to beat her, in the end, she was beating a servant girl who grew up with her, and the feelings of the master and servant were quite deep.

"What's going on?" Ding Xiaolian had a trace of worry in her eyes and threw the stick away.

"The slave and maid~~ The slave and the maid met the villain, and almost strangled the slave and the maid to death," he said, leaning his neck and showing the strangulation marks to Ding Xiaolian.

Ding Xiaolian was furious after seeing it, "These damn hillbillies, how dare they touch Miss Ben's people? If Miss Ben finds out who it is, he has to take his life to accompany him. ”

In the end, no one died, not to mention that Hongluan was just a subordinate, and his life was not that valuable in the end.

Ding Xiaolian sent a fire and comforted Hongluan a few words, and the matter was over.

"How? Can you find the right person to talk to Mrs. Wang?" Ding Xiaolian is most concerned about this.

Hongluan's previous 'advertisement' was too loud, and now as soon as the long-tongued women in the village touched her, they asked Ji Xun when he would leave? When to marry her, she was tired of coping, and she just wanted to burn down the house of Shen Yuyu's family as soon as possible, let them go to live in the cave again, and let His Royal Highness the Night King come back to beg her in desperation and despair.

"Found it." Hongluan's eyes were red, and she wiped away her tears, "It's a foreign merchant, and he said that he would come to the village tomorrow to deliver a message to Mrs. Wang." The location of Mrs. Wang's house was also told to him. ”

Ding Xiaolian's face, which had been gloomy for a few days, finally cleared, "That's good, by the way, he hasn't seen your appearance, right?" Don't know where you're coming from?'

"Rest assured, the slave and maid will not show any of their feet."

"Hmm." Ding Xiaolian hooked her lips and smiled, "When this matter is done, Miss Ben will definitely reward you heavily." ”

At noon the next day, a merchant who carried a burden came to Shenjia Village with a wave drum, and the women heard the sound and came around to buy some small items with needles and threads, not to mention, they were sold quite cheaply.

The merchant sold all the way, and went all the way to Mrs. Wang's house.

Mrs. Wang's house is in the northwest of the village, quite far from the avenue, and the merchant carries the burden directly to the path outside Mrs. Wang's house.

Mrs. Wang was hunched over and sweeping the floor in the hall when she heard the sound of wavy drums and straightened up.

"Auntie, do you want to buy needlework? Cheap, five boxes for a penny. ”

"Five boxes for a penny? I buy. Mrs. Wang's triangular eyes were shrewd, and she immediately replied.

There is no shortage of this at home, but when I heard that five boxes of pennies were immediately moved, usually three boxes of one penny, which is too cost-effective!

Mrs. Wang hurriedly put down the broom and walked out of the yard, came to the merchant and handed over a penny.

The merchant did not answer, but looked around a few times, and when he saw that there was no one around, he took out a money bag and opened it, revealing an ingot of five taels of silver inside, and at the same time whispered to Mrs. Wang.

"Are you Shen Yuyu's step-grandmother?"

"Yes." Mrs. Wang looked at him strangely and nodded.

"Aunt Wang is like this, there is a noble man in the town who asked me to ask you to do something, if you agree that the five taels of silver will be yours."

"Really?" Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up when she saw the ingot of silver, "What's the matter?" Who entrusted me with this?"

"You don't care about this, just say you can't do it.

"What did you do first? Look at five taels of silver is worth it. "Mrs. Wang's triangular eyes are full of shrewdness, who knows what to do? Killing people and setting fires is also an errand, although five taels of silver is a lot, but the matter of going to prison and cutting off the head is definitely not worth it.

The merchant lowered his voice: "Shen Yuyu is your stepgranddaughter, right?" You go to her house and light a fire. The five taels of silver are yours. ”

Mrs. Wang was surprised when she heard it, who did Shen Yuyu have a grudge with? More than her, you want to burn Shen Yuyu's house?

But it just so happened that she was thinking about this matter for the past two days, and the oil was ready, so she wanted to pick a windy day to go to Shen Yuyu's house and set her house on fire.

This white-eyed wolf with no conscience, she was not allowed to take her two pieces of bacon, but she sent this and bought that to Aunt Zhou, that day she couldn't get angry and went to the white-eyed wolf's house to ask for an explanation, not only was the white-eyed wolf blasted out but also humiliated her, and almost didn't her off.

"How?" The merchant looked around and urged anxiously, "If you don't collect the money, give me an accurate word, if you don't want to have someone who wants to make this money.

"Ken, Ken." Mrs. Wang was so busy that she had already made up her mind to burn down Shen Yu's house and drive her out of Shen's village. So these five taels of silver are equivalent to being given to her for free, can she do it?

"Aunt Wang has received the money, and this matter must be handled for it within three days." The merchant stuffed her with the silver as he spoke, "Do a good job, if someone catches the handle, you will have to take responsibility for yourself." ”

"Don't worry, I know." Mrs. Wang happily accepted the money, and said curiously to the merchant, "But that."

"Don't ask, even I haven't seen that nobleman's face." After speaking, the merchant carried the burden and left.

Mrs. Wang put the ingot of silver in her mouth and bit it, and took it back to the house.

That night, Mrs. Wang called Shen Zuorong and Shen Yunlai into the house and said to them: "Eldest and second son, which of you two will go to the foot of Beishan?" Set fire to Shen Yu's house."

Originally, Mrs. Wang was going to do this by herself, but thinking that she couldn't run fast when she was old, Ji Cripple couldn't catch her because of her leg disease, but Shen Yuyu's cheap girl is now flexible, what if she catches her?

It's safer to tell young people to go, light the fire and run, as long as they don't get caught, no one can rely on them.

"Burn her house? Kick her out of Shenjia Village?" The horizontal flesh on Shen Zuorong's face trembled, and the light shot out of his triangular eyes was cold and fierce.

"Winter is coming, and they will definitely leave here without a house to live in." Shen Yunlai is also full of unkindness, the house was originally his, and it was taken back by Shen Yuyu to take care of it well, every time he passed there, he was on fire every time, and since he couldn't get it, it was better to burn it clean.

"Again, the cave is deserted, and the dead are hanged in it. I guess I'll have to get out of here. "Without a house and no money, Shen Fool may sell those few acres of fertile land cheaply, and the fertile land that does not have to pay taxes, Shen Zuorong wants to get it back in his dreams.
