Chapter 59: Sudden Change (Part II)

Now I have to ask the reason, and without any waiting, I opened my mouth and asked bluntly, "Miss Menglan, what happened, please tell me bluntly..."Lin Feng also talked a little with the little boy in the past few days, knowing that the old man had died, and it was because of himself, the only reason was that the little boy couldn't describe it clearly, and he didn't know yet.

Li Menglan's eyes instantly turned red, "It's all to blame for the civet cat you brought back." Grandpa didn't know why it didn't wake up until it died, so he brought it back to the room to see why. However, just some time ago, my grandfather also fell into a deep sleep, and only one day later, he died in a dream in the early morning. If it weren't for you, Grandpa would have lived a long life.." As he spoke, the sound of sobbing came, and Lin Feng didn't know how to persuade him, there was no more words in the house, only the woman's cry remained.

I don't know how long it took, Li Menglan fell asleep on the round table, obviously exhausted to the extreme, and I don't know how she came over in the past five days, just thinking about it makes her feel sad. And according to this point of view, the old man was also harmed by himself, and he should have told him bluntly in the first place, if it weren't for this civet cat, maybe the woman would still be that sensible little girl, and she wouldn't have to go through these pains.

At that moment, there was another commotion outside the door, but it was too far away and the number of people speaking was too large to hear. Li Menglan woke up suddenly, glanced back at Lin Feng and turned to leave, and the noise outside the door disappeared after a short time, but the woman disappeared again.

Fortunately, this time Lin Feng did not let himself wait, and not long after the noise left, a woman about forty years old walked in. This person has seen it once, and he lives in the courtyard on the side of the medicine hall, and it seems that he is related to the old man, and he can hear her coming to the medicine hall on weekdays to be busy, but Lin Feng doesn't go out of the room and doesn't see each other much.

"I'm Aunt Menglan, and I am also surnamed Li, so it's good if you call me like that" Before Lin Feng could ask, the woman said, "Menglan is in trouble, this town may not be able to tolerate her." I thought that maybe you could be the only one who could take her away, and I would like to come and consult with you and hear your opinion."

Lin Feng was momentarily dumbfounded, the old man had just passed away, why couldn't he stay any longer, making people not understand, "Aunt Li, what happened?" Although the old man died, shouldn't the position of the elder be passed on to the eldest son? What trouble did you encounter?"

Aunt Li sighed lightly and shook her head, "It's really good that Uncle Li is admired, but my brother is really untalented, cowardly and greedy by nature." When Uncle Li was alive, he relied on his family's power to borrow a lot of money in the town, and no one said anything about it, and I didn't know about it."

On the day of Uncle Li's death, there were many people who came to ask for debts, and Menglan wrote a list of borrowers in order to stabilize everyone's emotions. But my brother took the opportunity to flee with the family's money and his young son and eldest wife, and he did not know where he went. Now these creditors in the town are holding on to Menglan and want to seize the houses and fields to pay off the debts. And there was originally only Uncle Li as the chief of ceremonies in the town, but now there is no one to preside over trivial matters, so the creditor will never give up, and this matter is a foregone conclusion."

Lin Feng is stupid, the tiger poison does not eat children, why did Li Menglan's father leave the little girl alone, it is not human. At least in his own opinion, even if he wants to escape, he will take his children with him, and he will not leave the woman behind.

Aunt Li also seemed to see what Lin Feng was puzzled about, and sighed and whispered, "Actually, Menglan is not my brother's child, she is an abandoned baby that Uncle Li picked up on the mountain many years ago, and it just so happened that the wife of the eldest son in the family gave birth to a daughter but unfortunately died, thus replacing the young daughter." Only a few of us know about it. Uncle Li deliberately concealed it, and no one told the truth at all, so today's children were created, and these encounters were made."

After that, he took out an iron coin from his arms, although the distance was not close, he could still see a dragon character written on the corner of the iron coin. Aunt Li stepped forward and put it on the edge of the bed, "This is what Menglan left next to her when she was picked up, Uncle Li said, it was a string of iron coins at that time, I kept one in my hand, and I don't know where Uncle Li hid the rest."

Speaking of this, Aunt Li paused for a moment and said earnestly, "Child, Uncle Li saved your life, and his original intention was to let you stay, so he never concealed anything about the affairs of the town. Now that the elder has passed away, leaving the child with nowhere to stay, if you are interested, this thing can be given to you to take Menglan away from this town, if you have no intention, I just didn't talk about it."

Aunt Li is also helpless, her home is here, and it is good that Uncle Li's family has not involved her, and she does not dare to take Li Menglan in at all, after all, she also has her own children, and she can't ignore it and cause herself to have nowhere to stay, helping her children find a support is already the only thing she can do.

As for who Lin Feng is, Aunt Li knows very little, and even her name is not clear until now. only knew that the old man intended to promote the relationship between the two, so he chose to believe Lin Feng, otherwise, he could only let Li Menglan leave Shuxia Town, give some money and go to another place to find a family to spend his life, whether it is good or bad is not up to the two of them.

At present, what she is most afraid of is that these creditors will not be able to make money, but they will beat the children, and if they are targeted, they may be sold into the dust. The child is fifteen years old this year, and once he falls into the dust, the number of lives can be imagined. This is the most important purpose of Aunt Li's coming to discuss with Lin Feng this time.

Lin Feng was also depressed. If he leaves, he will inevitably return to Lingyun to be punished, and whether he can stay or not will not mention it, no matter how he is, he can't take her back to the mountain. But then I thought that Li Menglan's piano skills were excellent and she knew how to read and reason, so she could send her to Luoyinxuan if she couldn't return to Lingyun.

I can save the life of one of You Yun and cherish the water, and it is not difficult to entrust it to her. Although Li Menglan is a little older, she can also try a little, if her understanding is not good, the surrounding villages and towns can also accommodate her, it is much better than leaving her alone. After thinking about it, he reached out and held the coin beside the bed in the palm of his hand, only to feel that the weight was full, and the word responsibility fell in his palm.

Aunt Li's face showed a look of relief, "Yes, Uncle Li didn't see the wrong person, you can discuss this matter with her when Menglan comes back." In any case, persuade the child to leave with you, the more open the better"

The eldest son of the old man doesn't know how much debt he owes outside, but Aunt Li seems to be in a hurry, and it shouldn't be too little. What Lin Feng didn't expect the most was that he wanted to let himself negotiate with Li Menglan, instead of saying that he could leave at any time. It was also so unexpected.

Mo said that the woman had some hatred for herself now, and even before she had never thought of leaving. It all depends on how you can make sense with your lips and teeth, "Aunt Li, shouldn't you explain this matter clearly to Miss Menglan? How should I speak? Not to mention that we are not familiar with each other, how can I move her when there is a difference between men and women?"

"Hey, that's a helpless move. The child is now holding on alone, no one dares to believe anyone's words, even my aunt doesn't dare to pay attention to it, you can only persuade it, it is natural to become good, if it doesn't work, it's no wonder you, do your best, child"

"Well, success or failure is not guaranteed, you can only try"

"Then this matter will be entrusted to you, I will go first, if Menglan is seen, she will be nervous. Please."

After Aunt Li left, Lin Feng lay on the bed alone, thinking about how to dissuade him. I don't know how long it took, and finally I couldn't bear the irritability in my heart and fell asleep.

It was early in the morning when I woke up again, and I had a lot of thoughts yesterday, and my mind was a little swollen, and I didn't know how to dissuade it. When she was melancholy, Li Menglan came with a bowl of hot porridge, although she had some resentment towards Lin Feng, she still knew that she couldn't blame him.

Moreover, the little boy couldn't stay any longer, and was called back by his family, not allowing him to have any more contact with Li Menglan, so as not to get into trouble. It's no wonder that there are too many people involved in this matter, even if they are relatives, they don't dare to protect it, after all, they are all people from the town, they can't look up and look down, they can't stand opposite, they will provoke everyone's criticism, and they won't be able to stay.

Rumors kill people sometimes faster than sharp blades, and no one dares to provoke them.

"Your porridge, eat it quickly. The injury is estimated to be better in a few days, you can leave directly, don't let me see you again" Li Menglan's eyes dodged, and her tone was stiff. But Lin Feng heard a little sadness.

"Those who collect debts will come again today, and when will this deal end?"

"How do you know?"

"People are making noise outside the door every day, how can I not know. Is there anything you can do about it?"

Li Menglan shook her head, her eyes were slightly red but resolute, "I don't know..."

"Go away with me, you can't go back to others if you owe them. Leave this medicine hall and the house behind, and let them fight. Don't meddle in things here."

"Where?"

"To Luoyinxuan"

"But the ancestral house was built by my grandfather, and I don't want to leave."

Lin Feng knew that this would be the case, and continued to patiently persuade, "Menglan, it is useless for you to stay, this medicine hall and the ancestral house will be used to fill the debt, this matter is a foregone conclusion, no one can change it, now it is better to protect yourself." If you have money in the future, it's not too late to come back and redeem it. Houses and fields are nothing but dead things, and it will not be good if they are left here."

"No, these are all left by grandpa, no matter what, you have to keep them!"

"You can't keep it if you stay, so it's better to leave first than to take the risk. The home is still there, but it's just for someone else to take care of it first. When you succeed in Luoyin Xuan's cultivation, it's not too late to come back."

Li Menglan still shook her head, extremely resolute. Lin Feng got up and came to her, with a serious face, "I'll leave tonight, you will stay here before that, and you can't go anywhere" After finishing speaking, he turned around and closed the door, and stood at the door staring at the woman.

"I won't leave, you want to go by yourself" After saying that, he turned around and was about to grab the door, Lin Feng grabbed the opponent's wrist with his backhand, and did not let go even if he struggled to resist. Li Menglan slapped the other party in the face with a backhand, but there was still no reaction, only to see blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were extremely tough. The woman squatted on the ground and cried, and for the first time in many days, she had a feeling of reliance, which made her feel that her grievances found a place to vent.
