Erhu's nose was sour when he heard Xinghua's father's words, and he also shed tears and persuaded him: "Uncle, don't be sad, take care of your illness, you will get better." ”

Originally, Erhu wanted to tell Xinghuaer's father about the misfortune that happened at home, but when he saw him like this, he didn't mention those unfortunate pasts, let alone Xinghua's disappearance.

"Hey, I'm sick as I said, are you okay at home? Father, mother, and Xinghua are all right?" The old man knew that the second tiger's brother was gone when he was five or six years old, but he didn't know that the father of his own family, the second tiger, was gone, because the two of them were far away, and they had hardly interacted much in the past ten years, so there were some situations that did not know Lu Dao.

Erhu held back his tears and hurriedly replied: "It's all good, it's all good, you can recuperate with peace of mind when you are old." ”

"That's good, that's good. The old man replied mechanically.

Erhu asked, "Uncle, where did your second daughter and third son get married?"

The old man coughed and said, "Look at my memory, by the way, I can't hide it, uncle, I raised three girls, and only one of them is in front of me." The eldest girl Xinghua has been a child daughter-in-law for your brother since she was a child, and she thinks that your brother died of illness at the age of five, but it hurts my eldest girl Xinghua and becomes a child daughter-in-law without a husband. The third girl married a young man from the same village last year, and she is also from a poor family, and she often comes back to see me, so I won't trouble you to carry the letter...... Mainly the apricot blossom and the second girl ......"

The old man coughed a few more times and continued: "The matter of the second girl was originally a big secret and could not be told to anyone, but now I can't get better from this illness. It's almost over, but you just came, so you brought me a letter and asked her to come back to see me. I'm satisfied, I didn't feed her for a while......"

When Erhu heard this, he was shocked, but he didn't know what was going on, so he asked, "Uncle, what happened to your second sister?"

"Hey, that's a long story. In the second year of Xinghua's marriage to your brother, the second girl was only five or six years old, and she didn't remember. I had a serious illness, and I was about to die, and my family didn't have half a big dollar to see a doctor. On that day, two richly dressed couples came to the house. They don't know me. But I know them, and they say that they want to buy a child if they don't have children. I said that you can pick these two girls in my family, give some money for treatment, and take them away. As a result, they fell in love with the best-looking second girl, so they threw down fifty pieces of ocean and took my rhombus away, and I haven't seen her once until now!"

"Uncle, where is the second girl now?"

"Hey, she is the family of Liu Zihao, the richest man in your Xiaogushan. At that time, we had a secret agreement that neither party was allowed to reveal the background of the second girl, Linghua. Only when I am about to pass away will we be allowed to see each other!"

"Huh?" When Erhu heard this, he stood up in surprise and hurriedly asked, "According to what you say, then Liu Hongling, the eldest lady of the Liu Mansion, is your Linghua?"

The old man said as he took out the half-fast jade from the pocket of his underwear and said, "Exactly." A few years ago, I often sneaked to the outside of Liu's mansion to peek at Linghua a few times, but in the past few years, my asthma has become more and more serious, and I can't go anywhere. ”

The old man handed the half piece of jade to Erhu and said, "Linghua also has this half of jade on her body, as long as you take out this half of the jade, she will believe it." ”

"However, everyone in the Liu Mansion knows that Liu Hongling was born to the eldest wife of her family?" Erhu asked puzzled.

The old man spat out another mouthful of phlegm and said, "That's all to hide people's eyes and ears, in order to deceive the old ancestor of Liu Mansion, Liu Zihao, and his wife." In fact, Liu Zihao's eldest wife is infertile, and her three daughters were bought with money. ”

"Oh, I see. No wonder Xinghua looks so similar to Liu Hongling?" Erhu suddenly realized, and sighed in his heart, this hateful world has made the poor sell their sons and daughters, and their wives will be separated!

Erhu hurriedly took out a few pieces of ocean from his pocket and put them on the kang and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely bring them all back to see you, you wait patiently at home and recuperate." ”

"Child, your family is not rich, so don't give back the money. When the old man saw Erhu's insistence on leaving the money, he was moved to tears.

The second tiger walked out of Simajiatun overnight, and as he walked, he thought, how to fulfill the old man's wish? It is too difficult, Xinghua's whereabouts are still unknown; Liu Fu is still chasing and killing herself, and Liu Hongling must not know her own life experience, and she has a bitter hatred for herself, if you want to get close to Liu's mansion, if you want her to know the truth of Lu Dao, I am afraid it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky!

He was used to walking at night, so he sneaked back to Xiaogushan overnight and secretly knocked on the door of Aunt Zhang's house.

Uncle Zhang opened the door and saw that it was the second tiger, he was startled, and said: "It's the second tiger, why did you come back so late? You are not small, then Liu Fu is arresting you, and Liu Ziwen is also back." ”

Erhu hurriedly flashed into the house and said, "Uncle Zhang, it's okay. ”

Aunt Zhang heard Erhu's voice, walked to the door, lowered her voice and said to Uncle Zhang: "What are you arguing with him? I'm afraid that others won't know what to do, hurry up and let him in!"

"Come on in. Uncle Zhang dragged Erhu into the back room and hurriedly closed the door.

Aunt Zhang let Erhu go to the kang and asked, "Where have you been for so many days, child?"

Erhu also cried, this Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang are his relatives, their old neighbors live in the same village, and they get along like a family. Erhu told Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang what happened to him after killing Liu Zihao. When they knew that the second tiger lady was still alive, a smile appeared on their faces.

Aunt Zhang asked, "Okay, I didn't expect you to reunite with your mother." But, does your sister Xinghua have any news?"

Erhu shook his head: "There is still no news, but I must find her." By the way, how is Mama Wang, is she okay? If Xinghua hadn't met Mama Wang, I'm afraid she would have been in danger a long time ago. ”

"After Mama Wang recovered from her injuries at my house, she left, saying that she went to Shaling County to join her relatives. Aunt Zhang said: "Erhu, you are hungry, and my aunt will cook you something." ”

At this time, Erhu felt hungry in his belly and said, "Oh, it's not that I'm hungry." Auntie, if you have anything leftovers, just bring me a few bites. ”

"Medium, my aunt gives you heat. Aunt Zhang said and walked into the kitchen.

After a while, Uncle Zhang put it on the kang table, and Aunt Zhang brought two bud rice flour cakes, a few green onions, a plate of sauce, and two duck eggs.

Erhu was really hungry, and he walked for a day before he could eat, and then he swept the clouds, devoured it for a while, and quickly ate all the food.

After eating his fill, Erhu said: "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, I have to go, I can't bother you, once the people of the Liu Mansion know that I have come to your house, they will not let you go." ”

Uncle Zhang was a little timid and afraid, but Aunt Zhang was very righteous, she said: "It's okay, your uncle and your aunt are not afraid of them." Child, you can sleep at your aunt's house......" (To be continued......
