This time, no one interrupted Li Ping'an's words, he successfully said the general meaning of the conversation with Caoya, and finally said: "How to deal with this matter, you have to make up your mind, Caoya's attitude of refusal is very resolute, it is impossible for her to abandon the six children, and she should not want to drag us down." ”

"Daddy!" Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Zhang Yu with pleading eyes, he actually didn't want to discuss, but when he thought of meeting Caoya but couldn't bring her back, he didn't dare to face Peach Blossom, and naturally he couldn't stay by Peach Blossom's side, so he simply came together.

Zhang Yu shook his head lightly at Zhang Xiaoshan, he didn't count it, although Caoya was the sister-in-law of his little daughter-in-law who had not passed the door, but Caoya's surname was Chen after all, and the Chen clan in Xiaochen Village was not related to each other. If he can call the shots, those surnamed Chen can also call the shots, just like Chen Song, the current head of Xiaochen Village, which is now in name only.

"Erlin, Brother Song, what do you think?"

Li Erlin groaned: "Forget it if you don't meet, since you have met, there is no reason to ignore her, and we are not short of a few mouths for nothing." A few days ahead, there should be a county town that will open the city gate, I still have some money here, as long as I can enter the city, I can buy some rice grain. ”

"Since Erlin said so, then take them, and I will persuade the others, you don't have to worry." Chen Song immediately said.

The next thing to think about is how to find Caoya and persuade her, as long as there are traces of someone in the mountains, it is not too difficult for Zhang Yu, so it was handed over to Zhang Yu, of course Zhang Yu will not refuse, after all, Caoya and his family are also relatives.

As for how to persuade...... It's better to wait until you find the grass and adapt to the situation, it doesn't make sense that they can't handle a little girl with so many adults.

Then they dispersed, and Chen Song found other people who could call the shots to talk about this matter, and specially pointed out Li Erlin's attitude.

It was basically Li Erlin who came up with ideas and decisions along the way, and everyone was convinced and gradually relied on Li Erlin, especially Li Erlin's mending knife to the injured mob that night, which made them even more afraid of Li Erlin.

Since Li Erlin agreed first, and a few more mouths had little to do with them, everyone said they had no opinion after thinking about it.

So Chen Song went to find Li Erlin and told everyone their attitudes, and when he was about to walk away, he was stopped by Li Ping'an.

"Uncle Ason, I have a question."

"What's the matter?"

"Caoya's thing, I remember that the fire in her house just finished last year, and everyone privately said that it was Caoya's fire, and then all of a sudden this sound disappeared, and when the official came to ask, everyone said that it was an accidental fire, do you know why?"

"This matter," Chen Song sat down and sighed, "There was indeed this kind of voice at that time, after all, the fire burned people to death, the houses were also burned down, but the peach blossoms and Zhaodi's things were taken out, and the grass was born and no one died, and there was no corpse, and before the fire, Chen Jin's bastard also said that he would buy the grass to the kiln to exchange money to pay off gambling debts." The timing is so coincidental, it is impossible not to doubt the grass.

The second night after the fire, Peach Blossom and Zhao Di went to my house, explained the inside story, and cried and knelt down to beg my father for help, don't let the government arrest Caoya......"

Caoya didn't want to be sold to the kiln at first, if she had to be sold, she would rather be sold to a big family as a rough maid, or sell it to someone else's family as a daughter-in-law like Peach Blossom, but her father Chen Jin had to sell Caoya to the kiln in order to sell it for more money.

For this reason, he also locked the grass in the firewood room and did not give her food or drink, trying to force the grass to agree.

On the first day of being locked in the firewood room, Caoya heard Zhao Di's crying, and saw through the crack in the door that her five-year-old brother, who was cared for by her father and mother, was holding a burning small wooden stick and burning Zhao Di's hair.

The younger brother chased after him to burn, and then accidentally fell and cried, and his father and mother rushed to Zhao Di when they heard the sound, and scolded Zhao Di indiscriminately, Zhao Di tried to explain, but it was okay not to explain, and when my father and mother heard it, they immediately grabbed Zhao Di and asked her younger brother to burn Zhao Di......

Seeing Zhao Di being scalded and crying bitterly, the grass girl's eyes were cracking, and she banged on the door vigorously like crazy and begged her father to stop, in order to go out to protect Zhao Di, she agreed to be bought in the kiln.

She successfully rescued Zhao Di, and said a lot of things to Peach Blossom and Caoya that night, and told Peach Blossom to go out to work tomorrow to bring Zhao Di.

In retrospect, some things were actually foreshadowed.

Peach Blossom thought that Caoya asked her to take Zhao Di out of the house, because she was worried that Zhao Di would be bullied again at home; The grass girl talked so much to them that night because she was about to leave the house and couldn't bear them.

It wasn't until that fire broke out that she understood Caoya's true intentions.

So when she heard the discussion of the villagers, she hurriedly took Zhao Di to the village chief's house, explained the inside story, and showed them the traces of burns on Zhao Di's body, just to prove that Cao Ya was forced to do so, and knelt down in pain and begged the village chief and the clan adults not to let the government arrest Cao Ya.

It is not uncommon for people in the village to favor sons over daughters, but there is not a single case like the Peach Blossom family for several generations, the village chief, the patriarch and the old villagers don't know how many times they have said it, but Peach Blossom's father Chen Jin is not the same thing at all, and Chen Jin is also a bad gambler, always provoking some second-rate people to come to the door, not only his own reputation is bad, but even the reputation of Xiaochen Village is also affected.

Remembering that Chen Jin's father died protecting the village clan back then, everyone endured it again and again, but when they saw the scars on Zhao Di's body, Chen An, who was still the village chief at the time, thought that Chen Jin was still angry and died of the mother who worked hard to pull him, and almost fainted, so he immediately agreed to Peach Blossom's request, and the patriarchs and elders suppressed the matter, and it was determined to be an accidental fire.

Of course, the officials were not so easy to fool, but after all, Chen An's youngest son Chen Bai was on an errand in the county office, and Xiao Chen Village was a side branch of the Chen County Lieutenant family, and it was characterized as an accidental fire, and they still had a lot less work. It's easy to be easy and at the same time you can sell a favor, why not.

"You don't know, when my mother and his mother saw Zhao Di's injury, my mother's eyes were red when she came out, and her mother hugged Zhao Di in the room and cried a lot. My mother also said that Caoya did a beautiful job, if she didn't burn Chen Jin and the others to death, Zhao Di would not have two sisters at home to protect her in the future, so she might have to suffer a lot of torture. Dayong's child was so bad and ruthless when he was a child, and he was also a bad seed when he grew up, and it was not a pity to be burned to death. ”

Dayong is the little brother of the peach blossom grass, the son that their father and mother have been looking forward to for a long time, after the fire last year, Li Ping'an still felt sorry for the child, and he suffered the pain of being burned alive at a young age. But now after listening to what Chen Song said, as Chen Song said just now, I don't know if it was the old lady's original words or what he said, anyway, even if Dayong is not guilty to death, it is not a pity to die.

As for Chen Jin and his family, Li Ping'an didn't have a trace of turmoil in his heart, even if he didn't have the memory of his previous life, he felt that they should go to hell.

He witnessed with his own eyes that without the scumbag father and the eccentric mother, Peach Blossom and Zhao Di have really been getting better for more than a year.
