Chapter 164: Drinking and Mishapting
Most of the petty thefts or fights that occur in the village are mostly to ask the elders of the clan or the village to mediate and make peace, which is too much, at most they are expelled from the original village, report to the officials, and find the yamen, which is a distant and fearful existence for them.
Aunt Feng made trouble in the Chu family's shop, but was once again scared and fled, and was known to everyone by the aunts and aunts who were originally called by her to see the lively couple.
If Shen Luzhu's rhetorical questions made everyone in the backing village mutter, then Chu Yi's last warning made people question the authenticity of the whole incident even more, after all, there are few people who have done something bad and took the initiative to ask to report to the official.
Coupled with the help of Fat Aunt, Qian and others, the wind direction in the village reversed again for a while, and many people began to discuss the authenticity of those haunted and dream-telling words, and even someone really asked the Liu family directly.
"Liu family, tell everyone in detail, the female ghost you saw in your family that day is not an ancestor of your family? But what did I tell you?"
The male owner of the Liu family was stopped on the way home after eating and drinking from a relative's house, although he has vaguely heard some rumors questioning his own family in the past few days, but his brain has long been paralyzed by alcohol and is not so bright, and it is not easy to remember to insist that his house is haunted: "What are you talking nonsense, your ancestors are fucking is, hiccup, it's a female ghost!"
"Didn't your family say that you burned the Chu family's paper money and were haunted!"
"Yes, it's haunted, but it's not my ancestor, it's not!" The Liu family shook his head as he spoke, but before he could shake it twice, he stumbled suddenly, but fortunately, others reached out to help him, so he didn't really fall to the ground.
"What did the female ghost tell your family?"
"Woo woo, cry!"
The man confirmed, "Only crying? Didn't say anything? Then why do you say that it is because of the paper money of the Chu family, which is haunted!"
The Liu family's obvious brain couldn't react, and they were stunned for a long time and only said, "Burning paper is haunted, haunted!"
The man saw that there was nothing useful from the male master of the Liu family, so he asked the old lady of the Liu family with the same words, but the old lady said at the beginning that she was not her own ancestor, and she didn't say anything, so it can be seen that the people in the village asked tightly, and thought that some people seemed to suspect that they were fake recently, so he changed his words and said: "Ah yes, I said, look at my brain, I was too afraid to forget it, and the one who said said that the two had been in prison, and said that they were not allowed to use the paper money of the little couple!"
The man continued to get to the bottom of the matter: "You didn't say it just now, and your son said yesterday that he was only crying, so why did you say it again!"
The old lady of the Liu family was choked very lightly, and said nonsense: "I can't forget, if I don't say it, I'm scared to forget!"
"And the rest of your family forgot about it too? I've never said before that the female ghost is still talking, besides, if it weren't for your ancestors, what paper money would you burn in the grave, what does it have to do with her! She came to your house, it shouldn't be your family's business!"
Mrs. Liu was shocked to realize that she had said a lot of mistakes, and the white man turned around and was about to go back to her yard at a glance, shouting as she walked: "What does it have to do with you stunned young man, ask if it's annoying, it's really nothing to do!"
The inconsistent rhetoric and attitude of the Liu family, for those who have begun to question the truth of this matter, is like evidence sent by hand, and the suspicion in the village about the recent series of events has gradually become more and more.
After covering their ears and stealing the bell for two days, the Liu family had to admit that this matter seemed to be a little messed up by them, while having a fluke mentality, thinking that the New Year was about to endure, and survived this wave, who would remember this incident after the New Year, and on the other hand, they were worried that the Chu family would use this matter as an excuse when the time came, and if they did not fulfill their promises, then their own family would not be busy in vain!
It turns out that this Liu family is really the Wang family's family who found someone to help spread rumors and act, unlike those who gave copper plates to help go out and make up a few nonsense, the Liu family's play is bigger, and it is a lot more difficult to act, so naturally only those copper plates can be used to move people.
To say that this is still the inspiration that Wang got from his youngest son Chu Zhi, the youngest son of the Liu family is the same age as Chu Zhi, both are studying in the village school, the two are enlightened in the same year, they have always been classmates, and they always go together in school on weekdays, since Chu Ren returned home in September, Chu Zhi also took his classmate to the house a few times, and asked Chu Ren for teaching, Wang took this opportunity to find the Liu family, and let them help play a big play together, the advantage is that as long as Chu Ren is at home in the future, The youngest son of the Liu family can come to the house from time to time and ask Chu Ren to give him some pointers.
This Liu family's father and grandmother are naturally the same as all the elders, hoping that their juniors can have a future to get ahead, although the rumors about Uncle Chu's family in the village are very ugly, but no matter how they can't stop people from having a unique talented son in the whole village, the Liu family's grandmother didn't even think much about it, so she directly agreed, she thought beautifully, her grandson only needs to learn the ability of Chu Ren to be admitted to Xiucai, as for the side aspects, not to learn from the Chu family!
Although the daughter-in-law of the Liu family has some concerns about this matter, her mother-in-law has already agreed, and her own man is a foolish and filial piety, and whenever she puts forward some dissenting opinions in those two days, it seems that she doesn't want her youngest son to have a career and gain fame, and in the end she can only swallow back the words that come to her mouth, and no one has ever thought that she was pregnant and gave birth in October, and her aunt wants him to be good more than anyone else!
The two families reached an agreement, and the next thing was much simpler, late that night, the daughter-in-law of the Liu family put on a simple robe specially sewn with white cloth, scattered her hair, blocking her appearance, and the screams of Liu's mother and son woke up the neighbors left and right, and she ran all the way from her house to the backyard with a crying voice, the back door that was always locked on weekdays had already been opened, and the lock was only locked on one side of the door nose, and the other side was only gently closed, and the daughter-in-law of the Liu family gently hung the back door. He hurriedly took off his robe, hugged it in his arms, and went around to the front door from the other side, hiding back in his house.
Grandma Liu's mother and son pretended to be scared, waiting in the courtyard for the neighbors who came, a group of people rushed towards the backyard, the Liu family man pretended to open the "locked" backyard door in the front, if someone asked about the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, Grandma Liu lied that she was frightened and didn't dare to go out of the house, so the Liu family was grandly under the noses of the neighbors, and made up a haunted incident!
Thinking about it, the Liu family finally went to Uncle Chu's house, and wanted to discuss countermeasures with that side, but it could be regarded as their own notice in advance, and it was not a loss, after all, their own family tossed around, and it still had some effect, so they couldn't work in vain.
After listening to the words of the Liu family, the Wang family finally knew that the wind direction in the village had begun to change again recently, and what was the reason: "Why can't you do this little thing......
Before Wang's words were halfway through, he was stopped by the Li family on the side: "This matter has indeed caused some trouble for our family, but since the aunt of the Liu family can come to tell us about this in advance, it can be regarded as making up for it. After so many years of living in the neighbors, if you are willing to give some benefits and let them stand up and help a few words, they should still be happy!"
The grandmother of the Liu family really didn't expect that she would help her Chu family do things, why didn't she get any benefits, and she had to catch it first?
"The daughter-in-law of the Chu family, this ......"
Li smiled and continued, "Could it be that my aunt is afraid that the neighbors will not be willing to help? No, you see that our family doesn't live close, and our family has agreed to help your grandson with academic advice!"
When the grandmother of the Liu family heard Li's words, she felt that this was the meaning of the Chu family not repenting, and gritted her teeth, isn't it just to give some benefits to the neighbors and let them help talk, for the sake of her grandson's future, she admitted: "Cheng, that's okay, I'll go back first."
"One more thing." Li stopped the grandmother of the Liu family, who was about to go back: "Auntie turn around and take advantage of the time when no one is around, bring the white robe you wore that night, and put it with you, it may not be safe."
Although the grandmother of the Liu family was very reluctant to give up her own piece of intact white cloth, when she first sewed it, she deliberately called it
The daughter-in-law sewed loosely, and when this matter passed, it would still be a good cloth after dismantling, but now she could only nod her head, which was considered to be a response: "Come on, then when you look back on this matter, don't forget to return it back to your family!"
Seeing the people walking out of their yard, Wang said, "What do you think? He didn't do his family affairs well, and he made up for it! How to merit them! She also wants to ask me Ah Ren to guide her grandson, dreaming! With her family's brain, she can't do this thing, and she still expects that child to be admitted to Xiucai like our Ah Ren? Dream on!"
Li Shengsheng resisted the urge to roll his eyes at Wang, and explained in a non-gentle tone, "A-Niang, don't be confused! Now the most stable thing is that those families who help spread the rumors and the Liu family, if A-Niang provokes them all, what if they go out and say that those things are all instructed by us? When the time comes, I won't earn the money, not to mention, I'm afraid that my face will be completely trampled under the feet of those two people!"
Although the Wang family was unwilling, he had to admit that what the Li family said was very reasonable, so he had to pull his face and change the topic: "Then what do you want from that mother-in-law to make his family's white robe?"
Unwilling to worry about the same as the Wang family, Li cleared his throat and said, "When I first heard about this two days ago, I was thinking about what to do, but fortunately, my aunt woke up later!"
The Wang family is the most reluctant to accept the Li family and her mother Yuan to the family to support the elderly, and this Li family actually deliberately mentioned her own mother to the Wang family, so that she knows that her own mother is not living in vain, and she still has to rely on her to make up her mind at this critical time!
Wang saw that Li said half of it, so he didn't say anything, although he knew in his heart that she was deliberately hanging herself, but she didn't have a problem, so she could only reluctantly urge: "What do you wake up, you said it!"
Li Shi said proudly: "Whoever thinks it's fake, and whoever doesn't believe it, let him really meet the second ghost and see it, and don't believe it!"
"Really a ghost? Li, are you saying that we borrowed the robes from the Liu family and went to scare people ourselves?"
"Otherwise, this is the only way now, if you don't stop those people's mouths, all the money you had before will be in vain!"
After the grandmother of the Liu family came out of Uncle Chu's house, she went straight back to her house, but she didn't know that this scene was all looked at by Chu Ping, who had been following her!
