supernatural peasant girl

Chapter 213 Acid

The sky darkened, as if it happened at that moment.

Before he reached the door of his house, the scene of the sunset glow just now was gone, replaced by a dark gray.

It's not that kind of lifeless gray, but a light blue gray with the warmth of sunset.

The muddy road was still warm from the sun during the day, but it didn't feel hot when walking on it. People in the village walked back slowly with hoes on their shoulders and cattle leading them.

When you meet someone who goes out to sell fish, the voice will reveal more intense joy.

After all, this is also related to the livelihood of the family.

Xiangru followed the elders and the younger ones, and among the returning home crowd in twos and threes, looking at the ink-and-wash painting-like village, she suddenly felt a sense of going home.

It is undeniable that after staying here for so long, she always thought that one day she would be able to return to the place she was familiar with and live the life she was familiar with, even if it was something she had often cursed at the beginning.But at any rate, it was better to be calm than to feel at ease when someone was thinking about how to deal with him all day long.

Then, at the moment when everyone returned home, she deeply realized that she was so looking forward to the return of the eldest and the third child, and there was still a lotus room waiting at home, and Mai Dong was also there.

It turns out that as long as the heart is at ease, anywhere is home.

Sure enough, Lianfang was already cooking, it was light and light, but it made people's index fingers twitch.

The yard outside was already full of excitement, and there was always a lot of topics to talk about. Besides, such a big thing happened today, Huang Jianchun was taken away just like that, and the fish sale went smoothly.

So, those tables were set up in the courtyard, with a pot of stewed meat on top, a plate of fried peanuts, another plate of pickles, and a big wooden barrel at the other end for rice and porridge.

For people who have been tired for a day, this is enough, especially after a whole day of hard work, the whole body smells like sweat, drinking a bowl of porridge, or drinking two or two small cups of braised peanuts Wine makes life beautiful.

Of course, the topic revolved around Huang Jianchun.

Needless to say, there are almost no people from the Huang family who can eat here, so naturally they won't say anything good.

"I just said that people are doing what the sky is watching. Why does a big man want to pretend to be sick? He thought we would take it seriously, but he didn't expect to hide so much salt and wouldn't let us use it. Just based on this, wait for us I sold the fish, what, what..."

Can't tell why.

The people next to him took the opportunity to boo, "What can I do if I sell the fish?"

"What's the matter, I don't give him any money!" The one who spoke first thought he had said something cruel.

Unexpectedly, there was a burst of hissing, and he sat down in embarrassment.

"I don't know if I can get out of the prison and still share the money. It's a good idea. I was also fascinated at the beginning, thinking that he has the ability, he can deal with that girl of the Yang family, and even persuade Yingliang. Now it is still Let’s do a good job, don’t say there is no salt, even if there is salt, grandpa doesn’t want it!”

This was agreed by everyone.

It's not that they didn't encounter setbacks. When they were selling fish, some fish died on the road. It was Xiangru who mentioned it to Mr. Wei, so they thought about putting some other fish in it and fighting to keep it fresh.

At the beginning, others would also think that those fish are full of water, and they are sold at a high price, which makes them a little puzzled.

A layer of skin peeled off his shoulders, watching the water in the tank slowly heat up under the sun, the fish hadn't been sold, it was heart-wrenching, but they never said anything about it.

Gradually, some rich families also came to buy fish. Although the selection was a bit excessive, the price they gave was high. Anyway, the sales were considered good. Some people also came to buy a few fish with wooden barrels, and kept them at home.

I come back every day to calculate, and I heard that I can earn more income than before.

I've been busy for so long, isn't that what I'm doing? Even though it's hard work, even though it's busy, a farmer never feels that there's anything he shouldn't do.

Therefore, things like Huang Jianchun's were especially unbearable in their eyes. This kind of person would be an eyesore even if he lived in the village, not to mention Li Zheng.

What's more, everyone did not forget the collusion with bandits back then.

As he spoke, he started guessing punches.

As for Xiangru and Lianfang, because the eldest is returning home, they don't go to join in the fun. No matter how lively it is outside, they don't have the warmth of a family having a peaceful meal.

Ever since, the family gathered around the dining table, and the dishes on it were also very light, such as cold wolfberry sprouts, steamed fish, and sour bamboo shoots.Eating is comfortable.

Lianfang couldn't put it down to that pair of rabbits, and smiled while holding them.

Xiangru also planned to boil the big green root and give it to the workers to drink.

Wu Yingtian suddenly asked, "Why is it being taken away like that?"

Xiangru hasn't recovered yet, only hearing Mai Dong chuckle, "It's not because of hiding the salt."

I don't know whether it is to tease the child or what, anyway, Wu Yingtian continued to ask, "What does the child know?"

How old is Mai Dong after all, once the rice bowl was put away, he said in a serious manner, "Why don't you understand, there is a bad guy, a big bad guy, he put salt at the door of other people's house, and then went to the yamen to let the messenger come and catch him." people."

Unexpectedly, this kid can think of this level, but he is not all right, at least who put the salt is not sure, and Huang Jianchun will not be so stupid as to hide it in his own home, but the things behind it are just Not everyone knows.

Wu Yingtian's eyes sparkled again, but he stroked his beard calmly and smiled, "Oh, it seems that he is indeed a bad person, so why was he arrested when he sued?"

Obviously, this question was beyond the scope of Mai Dong's ability to answer, his mouth puffed twice, "Because he is a bad person, arrest him!"

Wu Yingtian laughed loudly and shook his head, "Then if the salt is found here, who is it?"

Mai Dong thought for a while before saying, "Catch us."

"Then you guys are bad guys?"

"Of course not a bad guy!"

The question came back again, "So, it doesn't mean that bad guys can catch anyone, right?"

Mai Dong suddenly realized, smiled and nodded.

Xiang Ru watched with great interest, Wu Yingtian, a little old man with a full belly, if he was willing to teach Mai Dong, Xiang Ru would love it, after all, in her heart, she never wanted Mai Dong to be someone who was too straightforward to be a little stupid people.

The environment is different, and people's situations are different. Mai Dong is destined not to be like that, otherwise there will only be a more tragic experience.

In this era, there are many bloody realities.

Wu Yingtian sighed, spread out his hands, and frowned with a bitter expression on his face, "So, it's not because the bad guy got retribution, but because he miscalculated."

"How did you miscalculate?"

"Otherwise, don't plot against others. When you want to plot against others, remember not to let others have the strength to fight back. It's best to let others know that you are doing bad things. That's good." Wu Yingtian has some old gods, there is no I found that I also started to have patience when talking to children, especially when I watched Mai Dong look at me with those shining eyes.

It seems that there are many unknown places waiting for him to say.

He waited, but unexpectedly, Mai Dong smiled brightly, "So that's how it is."

"how?"

"Just give him the salt. Anyway, the salt belongs to him, and he recruited the person. It's the best way to return his salt and let him be taken away." Mai Dong shook her little finger, a little proudly.

How did he figure it out? Obviously, Wu Yingtian is not the only one who cares now.

"Mai Dong, who taught you this?" Xiang Ru suddenly asked.

Mai Dong shrank her neck, "Anyway, I did nothing wrong, and I even helped my second sister."

Why did the second sister get involved again?Xiang Ru felt that there must be something weird here, "How did you help Second Sister?"

Seeing that Xiangru didn't blow his hair, and looked kindly, Mai Dong thought about it, and felt a little embarrassed. He had clearly promised that person not to tell, but he said that he would not tell others. My sister must not be counted as someone else. It doesn't count if you have a big brother, fifth sister, yes!

"Brother Qiusheng and I went to the second sister's place, and saw Dalang crying outside, and his mother-in-law running around the house like a mouse, and finally put something on Dalang's bed. Later, someone searched for salt outside, and Brother Qiusheng said that he was found and wanted Go to prison, Dalang is so young, how can he go to prison..."

It turned out to be a leak here, no wonder Wei Zhang's hidden salt went somewhere, and he always thought she was lying, but he never thought that this time he really wronged her, and these two little ones took it away.

"How did you take it away?" Wu Yingtian asked.

"Take it away and where to put it?!" Xiang Ru asked.

Seeing the two of them asking such nervous questions at the same time, which were completely different questions, Mai Dong seemed to feel that he had really done something wrong, and his voice became softer, "We took it while she was going to the kitchen. Take it, get out... get out."

So big bag of salt, just take it away, what if it happened to bump into those two yamen servants, would they be able to escape?
Xiangru was concerned about it, so he was a bit serious when he spoke, "Then where are you hiding that salt? Do you know that this is not a trivial matter."

"I know. I'm going back."

"Where are you going back, Second Sister's house?"

Mai Dong bowed his head in response, "Li Zhengna."

Xiangzi almost choked on his own saliva, this kid... really refused to eat it without any loss, no wonder he said that just now.

But wait, it is not so easy to enter Huang Jianchun's yard, not to mention that there are only two people living in it, the yard is huge and there is a gate, how did Mai Dong get in?

Looking at him, he became more serious, "You went in by yourself?"

"Anyway, I'm going back. I'm fine, but he has something to do." Mai Dong still refused to say how to go back, but insisted on it.

It was a rare time to be so stubborn.

Xiangru has a headache, should she praise him for being smart, or think it is so dangerous, tell him not to trust him, or what to do.

Taking a deep breath, he was about to continue asking when Mai Dong stood up, "I didn't say anything!"

Following his gaze, Xiang Ru looked out the door, and saw a tall and tall figure standing indifferently in front of the door.

Could it be that it was related to this person.

"Come on, let's just say it's a good thing. You're a man. Of course, don't tell them everything about the things between us men."

Mai Dong nodded, agreeing very much, "I know!"

After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Xiangru opened her mouth wide and couldn't make a sound, and the two smiling faces were a bit dazzling. How could Mai Dong, who had taught her for so long, be fooled by this person so easily, how could she be reconciled.

Word by word popped out from between the teeth, "Fu-dong-chen!"
