The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 266
"Knock knock knock."

Hearing the knock on the door, Chen Lihua walked over to open the door consciously. Han Qianluo was very satisfied with this. After the door opened, she found a strange young man standing outside, wearing burlap clothes, but the clothes were neat and clean , without a patch.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?" Lihua asked politely.

The man outside the door looked into the yard and said, "I'm here to find Mr. Han Qingquan, may I ask if he lives here?" Hearing this, Han Qianluo raised his head and said loudly, "My brother lives next door. Yard, you went wrong."

"Sorry." The man apologized quickly.

Immediately, Han Qianluo heard knocking on the door and voices from the yard next door, and he didn't know what to say. Before Lihua had time to close the door, the man came over again and said apologetically, "It's really I'm sorry, Mr. Han is no longer at home, they said you are Mrs. Han's younger sister, so I have you to help give this thing to Mr. Han, I was attached by Lord Hou." He handed over a piece of paper, I don't know what it is Bamboo slips are still paper.

Han Qianluo was injured and couldn't get up, so he ordered Lihua to take the things, and said, "I will give the things to the elder brother, don't worry." Unexpectedly, the man did not leave, but continued to say, "Master Hou still has the things. Tell Mr. Han, Lord Hou said that he is very satisfied with the goods, but it is a little fragile, and it will be lost if you are not careful. I hope that Mr. Han can send better goods next time." After saying that, he said goodbye and left.

After hearing this, she was at a loss, what kind of goods are too fragile, don't they sell paper and sugar, as well as pens, inks and inkstones, but these things have nothing to do with fragility, she rubbed her brain , not sure what this means.

"Ma'am." Lihua came over and respectfully handed her what the man gave her just now.

Han Qianluo took it over and took a look, only to find that it was these two thin bamboo slips. When he opened the bamboo slips, he found that there was a piece of paper attached between the two bamboo slips. The birthday invitation card for the eldest birthday, she put this invitation card on the small table beside her, waiting for her elder brother to hand it to him when he came back.

Moreover, Han Qianluo was also very curious about the fact that Lord Hou invited his elder brother to participate in his 60th birthday. That is Master Hou, not an ordinary person, and it is still his [-]th birthday. It is not a big deal to live to be [-] at this time It's an easy thing, so the [-]th birthday is very important, let alone a majestic Marquis, then those who come must be big shots, maybe they are all princes, marquises, and Xiangguo.

However, what Han Qianluo was most curious about was how her elder brother established relationships with these people. Although she said that she had some business relationships with people in the court, she felt that this was not enough to invite her elder brother to participate in Lord Hou's sixty She was both curious and admired about the big birthday banquet.

"Pay attention, the elder brother will call him when he comes back." Han Qianluo said to Lihua beside him, and then he began to draw the design drawing, the design drawing of the oil press.I don't know how long it took, but she suddenly heard Lihua next to her calling her, so she turned her attention away from the design drawing, put down the pen in her hand and said, "Lihua, what's wrong?"

"Mr. Han is back, he said he will come over for a change of clothes." Lihua replied softly.

Han Qianluo nodded to show that she understood, and was about to ask Lihua to pour boiling water, but suddenly noticed that Lihua's face was flushed, and she immediately thought of a cold, so she asked without thinking, "Did you catch a cold?" Is it because the clothes are too thin or the quilt is too thin at night?"

"Mrs. Xie is concerned, this servant did not catch a cold." Li Hua said with her head lowered, the blush on her face subsided a little.

Since Lihua said so, Han Qianluo didn't think much about it, and said, "I'm a little thirsty, please pour me a glass of boiling water." After speaking, Lihua hurried into the house to pour water, looking at Lihua's back , but she felt a little bit like running away, but she felt that she was thinking too much, so she shook her head to get this thought out of her mind.

As soon as Lihua left, Han Qingquan came over. He was wearing a black burlap suit which was rare. Although it was brand new, it couldn't hide that it was just a burlap suit.Since the condition of their family improved, they seldom wear this kind of burlap clothes, so she felt very strange and asked, "Brother, how did you find out this kind of clothes and wear them?"

"It's something to go out." Han Qingquan said and sat down beside her.

Han Qianluo handed over the invitation from the man before and said, "Someone sent it to you just now, saying it was from Lord Hou's mansion." She couldn't help muttering at this point, "Just say Hou Ye Lord, I don’t even say which Lord Hou it is, there are not one or two Lord Hous in this capital.”

"Did you say anything else?" Han Qingquan asked after receiving the invitation.

"What did you say that Lord Hou is satisfied with the goods he sent, but they are a little fragile, and they are gone. Let me send better ones next time." Han Qianluo repeated the words of the man before.

Han Qingquan smiled after listening, but this smile was not the one she was familiar with, but with a hint of sarcasm: "It's really greedy, and I still think about the next time."

"Brother, what is it?" Han Qianluo couldn't help asking, she was so curious.

"people."

"Human?" she asked in surprise.

Han Qingquan nodded calmly, and then asked with a little smile: "Do you want to take her back and bury her?" It was like saying that today's weather is really nice.

She has always known that her eldest brother is cruel and cruel to insignificant people, but she has always cared about them, and she has never been like this. Although she knew that Han Shui'er committed suicide, she was still a little surprised, or Some surprises.Han Qingquan saw what was going on in her heart, and smiled very gently: "Xiaoluo, do you think I'm strange?"

"No, it's just a little accident." Han Qianluo replied hastily.

Han Qingquan smiled, and did not continue to entangle on this issue, but continued the previous question: "Should I drag Han Shui'er back to bury?" Han Qianluo thought, since everyone is dead, there is no need to keep arresting her I didn’t want to let go of the previous things, so I said little by little: "Then bring it back and bury it." After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that the "goods" that the man said before was Han Shuier, and she suddenly felt that the man who can call people "goods" , I'm afraid it's not very normal, I'm afraid it's not safe to go to this abnormal person's birthday banquet, so I quickly said: "Brother, are you going to this Lord Hou's birthday banquet?"

"Of course I'm going. Is there any problem with Xiaoluo?" Han Qingquan asked puzzled.

"I'm just a little worried that it's not safe to attend the Lord Hou's birthday party. It's too dangerous to kill people in one night." Han Qianluo replied truthfully.

Han Qingquan stroked her hair and smiled warmly: "Don't worry, nothing will happen." Then he stood up and said: "I still have something to do, I'm going out first, I may not come back at night, Han Shui'er's funeral Don't worry, I'll take care of it." After finishing speaking, he went out.

"Lihua, go and see what time it is." Han Qianluo turned to Lihua and said, only to find that Lihua looked at the back of her elder brother leaving with a nympho, and immediately understood why the blush on her face was before. Here I am, but I am very proud of myself. It seems that my eldest brother is quite charming, and many girls secretly like him.

Chen Lihua quickly came back to her senses, and then realized that her expression was too obvious and she was spotted, so she quickly explained with a blushing face, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I'm not... Not explained.Han Qianluo waved his hand indifferently, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, he is my brother, not my husband, so don't worry."

"Thank you ma'am." Lihua bowed her head and thanked.

Near noon, Liu Linchu finally came back from the outside. When he saw her sitting in the yard, he hurried over and asked with concern: "It's so cold in the yard, why are you sitting in the yard, Xiao Luo? Is it cold?" Wrapping her hands, he said with some distress: "It's getting cold, let's go indoors."

"It's okay, there is a hand stove, and it's not very cold, and the room is a bit dark, and the outside is brighter." Han Qianluo explained.

"Then light the lamp." Liu Lin said without even thinking about it.

Han Qianluo thought for a while, and said, "Would it be a waste to light the lamp in broad daylight, but I thought of something, but I don't know if anyone can make it." She was talking about things like glass, of course. , but she was just talking casually.

But Liu Linchu quickly asked: "Xiao Luo, what are you talking about? I'll find someone to do it." Han Qianluo hesitated for a while, and finally shook his head and said: "Forget it, I don't want that thing for now, I will wait until I have free time later." Say it again."

"Alright then." Liu Linchu didn't force it.

As expected, Han Qingquan did not come back at night, and he did not come back until the next morning. At that time, Han Qianluo was sitting in the house eating, and suddenly heard a sound coming from the courtyard of the elder brother next door. At this time, everyone in the family should have gone out. It is unlikely that there will be anyone, the most likely is that the eldest brother is back, she quickly let Lihua help him to have a look.

Sure enough, as soon as she walked over, she saw that her eldest brother was at home. Besides, there was another thing covered by a bamboo mat in the room. She probably guessed that the thing covered by the bamboo mat should be Han Shui'er's body, although She guessed it in her heart, but she still wanted to see it with her own eyes, so she walked over and untied the bamboo mat.

It was indeed Han Shuier's corpse that caught her eye. Except for her pale face, it seemed to be the same as when she left the day before yesterday. Even her clothes hadn't changed. It seemed that she didn't suffer much when she died.

"Do you want to wipe her body?" Han Qianluo inadvertently noticed Han Shuier's hand while speaking, and was shocked immediately.
