six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 290
The most painful thing in life is that a white-haired person gives away a black-haired person, and when he grows old, he loses his son and has nowhere to go. Therefore, the moment Mr. Su saw Su Liu, he thought of the tragic death of Su Changsheng, and the grief in his heart naturally surged up. , old tears.

He couldn't speak, and the grief in his heart couldn't be elaborated, so he just let out a dull sob from his throat, which made people feel very sad.

"Girl Liu came to see you, are you happy?" Su Qingxiang stepped forward and said.

Old Man Su let out two sounds, looked at Su Liu, and stretched out his thin hand towards her. Su Liu hesitated for a while, and finally approached and reached out to hold his hand.

As soon as she got closer, Su Liu frowned and pursed her lips slightly, because she smelled a strong old man's smell, like the rotten smell coming from the depths of the woods, which made people want to vomit and feel uncomfortable.

Then look at the hand that was tightly held in his hand, it was dry and thin, it was a real old man's hand, there was not much flesh, only a layer of skin wrapped around the bones, it was wrinkled, but it was holding her hand hard hand.

Su Liu felt a little uncomfortable. In fact, Mr. Su was only in his sixties, not considered an advanced age, but because of the shock of bereavement, he looked like an old man in his seventies who was about to die.

Old Master Su stared at Su Liu, and wanted to say something, but because he couldn't speak, he was so anxious that tears came out, and he choked up again.

Seeing him, Su Qingxiang said, "Don't worry, what do you want to say?" Seeing his eyes looking towards the east courtyard, he thought for a while and said, "Are you talking about the elder nephew's funeral? Everything went well. , don't worry, the Liu'er sisters are also here to see him off."

Old Master Su's turbid tears flowed down, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he looked at Su Liu with pleading.

Su Qingxiang couldn't understand it, but Su Liu said, "Are you worried about Su Jinquan? Do you want me to save him?"

Old Master Su's eyes lit up when he heard this, he blinked, and squeezed Su Liu's hand even harder.

Su Liu sighed, and said: "He committed murder, and he also killed his father." Seeing that Mr. Su's eyes dimmed, he said again: "Don't worry, it's okay to save his life, but It should be a sentence of exile, and I can't do anything else."

After hearing this, Old Man Su let out an eager ahhh sound, while Su Qingxiang who was at the side asked, "Sentenced to exile?"

"Yes, go west and be exiled for three thousand miles." Su Liu said lightly.

Su Qingxiang hesitated to speak, but seeing Su Liu's expression of unwillingness to say more, he said: "It's good to save your life, as for the rest, it depends on his own life." Seeing the old man's unwillingness to give up, He persuaded again: "Don't think about it, you can't even take care of yourself, it's good to save your life."

Old Master Su shed tears again. Seeing that Su Liu didn't seem to want to say more, he loosened his thin hands, closed his eyes and sobbed.

The dull crying made people feel depressing, coupled with the smell in the room, Su Liu didn't want to stay any longer, she only said a few words of relief, and then retreated.

Standing under the eaves of the main house, you can still hear Su Qingxiang's voice comforting Mr. Su, if you want to be more open, look at it, even when you are old, you can't care about it.

"Sister, the old man is getting old a lot, it seems, it seems to be soon..." Su Xiao lowered her voice.

Su Liu glanced at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense."

She knew what Su Xiao meant, let alone her, even she felt that the old man might not live long.

The two sisters were talking in a low voice, but Su Liu caught a glimpse of a skinny child drooling at the gate of the yard, with a finger in his mouth, looking at them with a dirty whole body.

"Who is this?" Su Xiao also saw it, and beckoned: "Hey, little Douding, come here."

The child immediately stepped aside, only poking out half of his head to peek, Su Xiao was not in a hurry, and slowly took out a piece of sesame candy from his sleeve and raised it: "Sister has candy."

The little girl was finally attracted, she ran over with a silly smile, looked up at Su Xiao and swallowed her saliva helplessly, no, it was precisely at the piece of sesame candy in Su Xiao's hand.

"Tell sister, what's your name, I'll give it to you." Su Xiao asked her to talk again.

It's a pity that the little girl only knew how to giggle, she slobbered and didn't speak.

Su Liu frowned, there seemed to be something wrong with this girl, she looked a little silly.

Just as he was hesitating, Su Qingxiang's voice came from behind him: "Yaya, why did you come here?"

Yaya?

Su Liu was startled, and looked down at her carefully. In his memory, this child was already two years old, so he should have been able to speak a long time ago, but looking at her now, it seemed that he couldn't speak at all.

"Uncle, do you think this is Yaya?" Su Xiao was also extremely shocked, and said, "Why, how do you look like her?" She pointed to her head.

Su Qingxiang sighed, and said: "They are all poor children. The former son was thrown to the ground by her damn father, knocked on the head, and he became like this. Do evil, such a small child, it is hard to grow up. What should I do?"

When Su Liu and Su Xiao heard this, they were very angry. If Su Changsheng hadn't died, they might have scolded others. No, even now, Su Xiao wanted to whip the corpse. This is still a child. Got it?

Su Liu looked at Yaya happily licking the candy given by Su Xiao with her dirty hands, and couldn't help shaking her head, thinking of someone, she asked, "By the way, why don't you see Chuntao?"

Su Qingxiang's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't mention it."

Su Liu narrowed her eyes slightly: "What?"

Su Qingxiang took out his cigarette stick, and said in disappointment, "She ran away. She ran away the night your father died. Who knows where she went?"

"What?" Su Xiao was very shocked, and asked, "Su Chuntao ran away? You didn't look for it?"

"I found it, but I didn't find it." Su Qingxiang shook his head.

"What's going on here?" Su Liu had an intuition that this was unusual, that Su Chuntao would run away?

Su Changsheng's death was not a natural death, but was killed by his own son. After the news got out that day, the old house was as lively as a market, crowded with people. Su Changsheng was shocked when he heard such a human tragedy. The old man was so stimulated that he fainted, his condition became more serious, and he had to attend a funeral, so it became a mess.

It wasn't until Su Changsheng's autopsy was completed, and the villagers helped to set up the mourning hall, and put Su Changsheng's bed in bed. After everything was settled, the big guys were able to sit and chat. Chuntao disappeared.

This living person is gone, is that okay?They all looked for it, but they couldn't find it after searching everywhere. Instead, there were a lot of clothes missing in her closet.At this time, someone suddenly asked, since this Su Changsheng accepted the Tang family's hire money, why didn't he find out when he was dressed in the shroud?

So, with this combination, they all thought that Su Chuntao ran away with the money.

"Where can she go as a woman? No one saw her go?" Su Xiao asked.

"Someone watched her leave the village with a bag." Su Qingxiang sighed.

The two sisters were silent. Su Chuntao's move was really unkind. Her mother and younger brother were imprisoned, and her father died, but she ran away with money, ignoring a silly younger sister and an underage younger brother.

And five years later, in a coastal town, someone saw a girl named Xiao Taoer leaning on a building with a haggard face like Su Chuntao in revealing clothes, soliciting customers.I heard from the girl in the building that Xiao Tao'er was originally a scholar's wife, but unfortunately, she was cheated out of her money and sold here five years ago.This will not be mentioned later.

Su Chuntao ran away suddenly, Su Liu somehow knew why, it was nothing more than Tang Jiabao.

Su Liu's guess was correct, while they were talking on this side of the courtyard, there were noisy voices from the east courtyard.

Someone rushed in and said to Su Qingxiang: "Village Chief, the Tang family is here to make trouble."

Su Qingxiang's expression darkened, and he hurried over with big strides.

"Let's go take a look too." Su Liu frowned and said to Su Xiao.

Walking to the entrance of the east courtyard, I saw a mess everywhere, the spring benches and the Eight Immortals table were kicked to the ground, and in front of the door, there was a group of people dressed in red and green, the leader of which was Tang Jiabao and his mother. There is also a big red sedan chair parked in front of it.

Not to mention how much Su Liu hates Su Changsheng, but now that he's dead and he's still having a funeral, you come here in red and green, are you trying to resist?

Su Qingxiang was confronting the Tang family, his face was red and his neck was thick, obviously very angry.

"If you want to make trouble, you shouldn't pick this as the pretext. You should make a fuss over other people's funerals. Do you think there is no one in Da'ao Village?" Su Qingxiang sternly shouted.

"That's right." The villagers rolled up their sleeves angrily and said angrily, "If you want to beat us, hit us, treat us as dead."

"What's the fuss? Su Changsheng, the dead ghost, accepted our 50 taels of dowry to marry his daughter to my son. What's wrong with us carrying him now?" Tang's mother said in a sharp voice: "You hand over the man, and we will immediately Just go, whoever wants to be here will not be in bad luck."

"She's not at home, we're looking for her too." Su Qingxiang said with a dark face.

"Don't be fooled. How can it be so cheap to hide people after collecting money?" A brother of the Tang family said: "Don't talk nonsense, either give money or give people."

"Yes!" Mother Tang raised her chin, and said bitterly, "Look at you poor ghosts dressed in tatters, how can you get 50 taels? You should hand them over quickly. Otherwise, we will see you." official!"

Being so humiliated, many villagers in Da'ao Village were indignant, and the two sides quarreled with each other.

Su Liu understood when he heard this, the Tang family came to carry Su Chuntao, who made Su Changsheng even accept the dowry?It's a pity that the duck that is about to reach its mouth has already flown.

But no matter whether your Tang family is reasonable or not, if you make a fuss at someone's funeral, what is reasonable becomes unreasonable. This is disrespectful to the dead, and it is not allowed to be put there.

Seeing that the two sides were getting more and more tense, Su Liu coughed and walked over.

"The eldest girl is here." Someone in the crowd called out, and immediately made way for Su Liu and the others to walk over.
