Chapter 29: Contracts
Ye Wen spent money to hire someone to bury his wife, build a tomb, and burned the paper with the little child, and worked until the afternoon of the next day.
During this period, the child seemed to be really afraid of noisy his mother, but he never made a noise, even if he cried, he bit his lip and refused to make too much noise. And it was only then that he remembered that he didn't even know what the child's name was.
"My name is Yaya!"
"Yaya?" Ye Wen repeated: "Are you a girl?"
Yaya nodded, it seemed a little strange why this big brother would ask this?
To be honest, Ye Wen saw that this child behaved so heroically when he thought his mother was being bullied, and was so strong after his mother's death, he always thought that this was a boy.
In addition, Yaya's dirty appearance is really hard to see that this is a girl.
However, these have no impact on Ye Wen, bury Yaya's mother, and the next thing he has to think about is how to deal with this child.
"Anyway, let's bring it back to the Shushan faction first, maybe it's the right choice to hand it over to Aunt Zhao to raise. No matter what, Aunt Zhao is also the aunt of this child, and at present, there is no more suitable candidate than Aunt Zhao!"
As for now, he needs to go back to the inn first, although Mr. Yue said that he will rest here for two or three days, and then replenish some food and water before continuing on the road, but he can't always hang around outside.
"Can I come to see my mother in the future?"
Before returning to the inn, Ye Wen took Yaya home to pack her things. Actually, there's nothing to pack, but before leaving home, it seems that you will get used to tidying up some things and bringing some important things with you.
Yaya is the same, maybe the poor man's child is in charge early, maybe Ye Wen underestimated this child, she is much more mature than she thinks.
When she was packing her things, Yaya packed some of her mother's things, but she didn't have much of her own. After sorting out everything, Ye Wen took the child and walked out, during which he saw the steamed bun that was thrown on the ground, Yaya thought about it and finally picked up the steamed bun, and then wrapped it carefully with a piece of cloth and put it in the package.
Ye Wen didn't understand what this kid meant, but he didn't ask, but stood quietly and watched. Until Yaya was busy with all this, she walked up to him and asked him, "Shall we go to Shushan County?"
Ye Wen didn't answer, he was actually thinking about it. You can't take this child all the way south, right?
After returning to the inn, Yue Hang helped him solve this problem.
After learning about Yaya's situation, Yue Hang sighed, he didn't know what to say, he looked at the child who was sitting there obediently drinking water, Yue Hang gave his own suggestion: "If Master Ye can be trusted, I will ask a brother to send this child back to Shushan, or send it directly to your faction, or directly live in my Yueshan Dart Bureau temporarily!"
Ye Wen nodded, and immediately made a decision: "Since this is the case, it will be troublesome for Mr. Yue, let's send it directly to my mountain gate, there are relatives of this child, it will be better that way!"
Yue Hang nodded: "That's true!"
Then Ye Wen repaired a book on the spot, which was also regarded as a voucher, Yue Hang directly called a subordinate he trusted, and asked him to take this child back to Shushan first, and to ensure that he was sent to the Shushan Sect Mountain Gate.
At that time, Ye Wen explained: "My junior sister is on the mountain at this time, and you will hand over this letter to her at that time!"
The man was also happy, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Master Ye rest assured, I promise to live up to my trust!" Then the sturdy man took the thin little doll and went on the road. It's just that when she was on the road, Yaya's eyes that seemed to reveal that she had been abandoned again made Ye Wen very entangled for a while.
In the end, it was Liu Qingfeng and Liu Zhenren who came over to comfort her: "This is also good for her, you can't let a doll follow our group of men all the way south, and suffer from sleeping in the open!"
It seems to have passed like this, and it might be better if it did.
After resting for two days, the southbound team was ready to set off again, because the next part of the road may often sleep in the wilderness, so the team was only delayed here for a few days, and now that it is ready, there is naturally no reason to continue to stay.
But the night before, everyone had eaten enough, and only Ye Wen sat alone in the front hall to drink and have fun, but he heard a news that made him care very much.
At that time, he was sitting in the corner, and there were two men sitting a few tables away from him, and they looked like some local thugs, and they probably got some money somewhere, so they came here to eat some wine and be happy.
Perhaps because there were fewer people and more alcohol, the two men talked a little unscrupulously, saying many things that they would never say in ordinary times.
If it was usually afraid that it would be nothing, but today it was listened to by Ye Wen.
"What did you two just say, how about Chengdong's surname Zhou?"
The conversation between these two people didn't hinder Ye Wen for anything, but as they talked, they suddenly said that a man surnamed Zhou in the east of the city was cheated by Wang Mazi's gang for a lot of money, and then Wang Mazi deliberately lent money to the person surnamed Zhou, and finally set up a bureau to force the surnamed Zhou to run away.
Ye Wen, who was drinking alone, didn't care at first, but after a while, he connected these words with the Yaya family who had just been sent away, how did he sound like Yaya's family.
"If according to what these two guys said, the guy surnamed Zhou was set up by someone to deceive and take away the family wealth?" Hearing this, he couldn't sit still anyway, so he immediately walked next to the two of them and asked directly.
The two of them were chatting happily, and even said that Wang Mazi was desperate at doing things, and it was not over after he cheated people out of money, forcing other men to run away, and the remaining orphans and widows did not let go, and every day they went to ask for debts, and I heard that the mother-in-law was about to die of illness at home.
As he said this, Ye Wen spoke, and at this time, even if Ye Wen didn't need to ask anymore, he knew that what these two people were talking about was the Zhou family he knew, and the woman of the Zhou family still paid for the burial by herself.
One of them was smiling and saying that Wang Mazi was doing things badly, when he suddenly heard someone else suddenly interject a sentence, his eyes squinted, and he saw that it was a young man with a weak face, and scolded: "Where did you come from a dog that doesn't have long eyes?
One mouth scolded Ye Wen, Ye Wen was furious at the moment, the evil fire that had been aroused by the tragic situation of the Zhou family's mother and son in the past two days rushed straight to the top of his head, and he shook his hand with a big mouth, and the guy who hit him was full of blood, and a few teeth fell out: "Can you speak human words? Do you want me to teach you?"
Ye Wen hated him for speaking badly, coupled with resentment in his heart, he brought internal strength when he shot, and the gangster he beat was full of gold stars, and he couldn't return to his senses for a long time.
The person on the other side drank too much at first, and when he saw that his brother was beaten and his mouth was full of blood, he reacted to what was going on, and immediately stood up and scolded: "The dog is looking for death!"
How do you know that Ye Wen didn't look at it, and directly returned his hand with a backhand, almost fanned the person out, fell to the ground and hummed and didn't get up for a long time.
At this time, the two gangsters finally understood what was going on, and the little yellow soup they drank just now was also woken up by Ye Wen twice. And just looking at Ye Wen's second blow, he was able to fan a big man and almost fly out, and the strength was definitely not small.
The gangster who was beaten at first relieved himself at this time, and saw Ye Wen holding a long sword in his hand, and he was a spirit at the moment, knowing that he seemed to have offended someone who should not be offended.
These gangsters are like this, he wants to see that you are weak and easy to bully, so he will not stop until he has and pee on you for everything, but if he encounters a hard idea, then the business of wagging his tail and begging for mercy is also more skilled than anyone else. So Ye Wen slapped them twice, and after they realized that although the person in front of them looked weak, he was not a person they could offend, and immediately said with a smile: "I'm blinded by drinking, don't blame the hero!"
Ye Wen didn't have the same knowledge as them, but he just scolded himself twice, and a little punishment made them understand the situation, so he asked again: "What the two of you talked about just now, the matter of the Zhou family in the east of the city, tell me again!"
"Yes, yes! Sit, I'll talk to you slowly!" The thug gave Ye Wen a seat with a smiling face, and then glanced at the brother who was beaten to the ground and was still humming, and secretly said that he was not too unlucky, this buddy was much worse than himself.
At the moment, the men of the Zhou family in the east of the city were deceived by Wang Er Mazi's gang, ran out to gamble together, and then set up a trap to squeeze out the business and savings of the Zhou family, and deceived him into borrowing a lot of debts, and even heard that the men of the Zhou family were forced to sign a contract, but although the man surnamed Zhou was cornered, he always refused to sign the contract.
"But I heard that Wang Er Mazi is quite capable, it seems that he caught the man of the Zhou family and finally asked him to press his handprint on the contract!"
"What contract?" Ye Wen asked casually when he heard this, and then saw that the gangster's face became very strange, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
It turns out that although this gangster has no ability, but his skills in observing words and emotions are still good, he has been secretly observing when he spoke just now, and found that when he talked about how Wang Er Mazi set up a trick to deceive the Zhou family, this uncle's face was full of anger, obviously what connection he had with the Zhou family.
So when he talked about it, he didn't know whether to say it or not.
Seeing that the gangsters didn't speak for a long time, Ye Wen was also a little impatient, and said, "What kind of contract is it?"
"Sell the contract of his wife and daughter!" The gangster was so frightened that he immediately blurted out, and after speaking, he secretly said: "I hope this good man Mo will use me as a punching bag!"
Ye Wen was furious when he heard this, and slapped the table with the palm of his hand holding the table, and was about to scold, but before he could speak, there was a burst of angry shouts not far away: "It's unreasonable!"
P.S: Ah~ Do you want to pay off your debts tomorrow?
