Chapter 215 Your Majesty is dying
What did Liu Wen come to Cheng Cheng's house for?
Cheng Xia couldn't help muttering, but still followed Cheng You to Cheng's house. Sure enough, he saw a group of people gathered in the courtyard from a distance, all of them came to watch the excitement, and they were chattering non-stop at this moment.Cheng Xia squeezed in carefully, and saw Liu Wenzheng standing in the middle of the courtyard, holding Cheng Shang's hand with his left hand, and babbling something.

Cheng Xia frowned immediately, and listened carefully to Liu Wen's voice for a while, feeling even more suspicious in his heart. Could this Liu Wen not be able to speak?Hoarse?
Mrs. Zhang who was standing at the door saw Cheng Xia approaching, quickly pulled her over, pointed at Liu Wen and sighed, "Girl Xia, what do you think about this?"

"Mother, what's wrong with Liu Wen's voice?" Cheng Xia asked puzzled.

"Hey, what else can I do? I heard she was poisoned and dumb." Mrs. Zhang shook her head. After all, she was her son-in-law whom she had trusted for so many years. Although she had been teased a lot, Liu Wen appeared in front of her again. Undoubtedly, I still had mixed feelings, "I heard from Brother Tian that Liu Wen was first picked off by someone, and was dragged out of the tribute courtyard by the county magistrate, and then the county magistrate earlier said that Liu Wen was his son-in-law after all, and he wanted to be fair. The law enforcement personally handled this matter, but Liu Wen's voice became hoarse again, hey, they said, this is the county magistrate wanting to shut up Liu Wen, probably because he was afraid that something between them would be revealed by Liu Wenshu."

Cheng Xia bit her lip, and looked back at Liu Wen who was trying to make a sound but could only babble. She knew that what happened was probably what Zhang said.No matter how upright Zheng Guan is, he is only a seventh-rank official, and Zhao Dezhong has already put on a fourth-rank official uniform. It is not unreasonable to say that a senior official crushes people to death.

Zhao Dezhong wanted to get rid of himself, because he didn't turn Liu Wen into a dead body because he was afraid of Zheng Guan. He just made an excuse or made an accident to make Liu Wen dumb, so that Liu Wen could neither write nor write. Said, coupled with Zhao Dezhong's threats, this matter probably will not be resolved.

Liu Wen got the punishment he deserved, but the only pity was that Zhao Dezhong had gone far away, and Cheng Xia had a cold face. Sooner or later, even if she chased him to Liangzhe, Zhao Dezhong would have to pay the corresponding price.

Cheng Xia was calculating in her heart, when she heard Cheng Shang's vicious voice, "What on earth are you going to do? No one else wants you and come to me again, right? Why are you looking for me? To serve you who is crippled or dumb You? What did you do to me back then, you dare to lick your face today, get out of here!" Cheng Shang pushed Liu Wen hard, and Liu Wen staggered and fell to the ground without standing still.

The crowd was in an uproar, but no one wanted to say anything. Farmers like them have always respected scholars, but Liu Wen corrupted the names of scholars. Now that they don't have the title of scholar, they naturally look down on them.

Liu Wen struggled to get up. Seeing that Cheng Shang was really angry, he took two quick steps and plopped down on his knees in front of Mrs. Zhang, weeping bitterly, clutching the corner of Mrs. Zhang's clothes, sobbing uncontrollably.He was completely abandoned, and Zhao Dezhong took Zhao Rou away. He had nothing left. Without the fame of a scholar, he also had no food expenses of one tael of silver per month, and he also had no house. The second uncle's big house was given to Zhao Dezhong. He borrowed 50 taels from the bank and also borrowed usury.Later, he got involved with Zhao Dezhong, and the usury gave him a grace period, without adding more interest, so he took the opportunity to sell the house he lived in.It was just an agreement with the buyer to live in after he left with Zhao Dezhong, so he could temporarily live at home for a few days, but now, he was kicked out by the buyer again, and he was homeless. back.

The master also abandoned him, everyone didn't want him anymore, and he lost his hands and was dumb. What else could he do, he could only hope that the Cheng family would take him in.

Mrs. Zhang closed her eyes fiercely, shook off Liu Wen's hand and took a step back, "Our family will not take you in, you can go back wherever you came from, and don't even try to stay here licking your face. Thinking about what you did to us, how dare you step into Cheng's door again."

Liu Wen was crying, the Cheng family was his last hope, if he couldn't stay, how would he live in the future.

Liu Wen knelt and crawled in front of Mrs. Zhang, shaking his head to show that he was wrong.Cheng Xia raised his eyebrows, and waited until he had nothing left before expressing his position. I'm afraid it was just a last resort. Whenever Liu Wen had the possibility of making a comeback, he would still abandon the Cheng family without hesitation. As far as humans are concerned, it cannot be changed even if it is changed.

Cheng Xia looked at the folks in the village pointing and pointing, but said nothing, she believed that Mrs. Zhang could make a decision by herself.

In the end, she didn't expect Lizheng to come again. Seeing his righteous indignation, Cheng Xia immediately sneered. It seemed that this person was using someone else's hand to radiate his compassion.

Sure enough, Lizheng looked at Liu Wen kneeling and prostrating, and then looked at Zhang's cold face, his brows knit together unconsciously, "Mr. It doesn't look good, why don't you help people up quickly? So many people watching, how bad the influence is."

Mrs. Zhang was a little hesitant, Cheng Xia smiled and held Mrs. Zhang's hand to keep her still. She quickly walked up the steps, and pulled off Xiu'e who was watching the excitement from the steps, and threw her to the front of the stairs. In front of him, "Uncle Lin, I heard that you think Xiu'e is very pitiful, and you insist on letting her stay in our village. That's true. After all, Uncle Lin is a person with a heart of Buddha, and he is the most kind-hearted person. But, " Cheng Xia smiled, "She shouldn't have stayed in our house. I heard that Lizheng is the richest person in our village. If you ask me, if you take her back to your house directly, it will not reflect Uncle Lin's generosity." ?"

The crowd suddenly burst into laughter. When it came to Xiu'e, most people thought she should be let go, but Shengli didn't think so, and they were already dissatisfied.

Li Zheng's face turned blue, and he shook his sleeves angrily, "I'm talking about Liu Wen to your mother, what are you talking about Xiu'e?"

"That's it," Cheng Xia smiled decently, "Uncle Lin wants to talk about Liu Wen, that's just right, Liu Wen has become what he is now, helping him can show Uncle Lin's benevolence better than helping Xiu'e, Lin Uncle took him away, just solved a big problem for us."

Liu Wen really turned around and knelt in front of Li Front, hugging his leg hard, he didn't care about anything now, face was nothing, survival is the kingly way.

Li Zheng's face turned blue and purple, and he yelled at Cheng Xia furiously, "What are you messing with, this is from your family, what does it have to do with me?" He wanted to get rid of Liu Wen, but Liu Wen couldn't move at all. Fudong hugged him tightly, "Oh, get the hell out of here!" Rizheng kicked him bluntly.

Seeing Lizheng's reaction, Cheng Xia immediately sneered, "Uncle Lin, you are only allowing the state officials to set fires, but not the common people to light lamps. What's the point of asking us to do things that you don't even want to take over yourself? Liu Wen has nothing to do with you, but does he have something to do with us? Don't forget, my eldest sister and Liu Wen have long since reconciled. Why should he be considered my family? Uncle Lin, don't refuse, just accept it. "

"That's right, that's right, Lizheng, you can take him in," echoed the aunt who was watching.Last time a poor ghost in the village stole two buns from her house. She went to Lizheng to complain, but Lizheng said that her house was not short of these things. It seemed that the poor ghost was starving to death. What happened to the nest.She was very angry at that time, her family was not well-off, so there was no shortage of those two corn buns.

"That's right," another aunt quickly responded, "If you want me to tell you, Li Zheng is the great kind person in our village, so you can accept this Liu Wen." When the surname Lin became Lizheng, his village kept throwing things away, and he dared to steal anything blatantly, anyway, Lizheng would tell them to get it.In the past, people in Qingxian Village did not pick up lost items and did not close their doors at night, but now it is good. Even if they are at home during the day, they have to lock the door. Suddenly, someone will enter her yard and steal chickens and dogs.

I really don't know how he got here, or is it because his family is rich?Anyway, when the aunt and aunt mentioned it, people immediately became lively and asked Li Zheng to take Liu Wen home. Liu Wen was even more delighted, as long as someone took him in, he didn't want to end up on the streets.

Seeing the anger of the crowd, Li Zheng yelled, "What are you talking about? Liu Wen has disgraced scholars, how could our village take in such a person, you, and you, you," Li Zheng Righteously pointing at the man in the crowd tremblingly, "Come here and throw him out of the village. If he dares to enter the village, I will beat anyone who sees him."

Liu Wen suddenly shook his head in horror, but a few men rubbed their hands and casually slipped the thin Liu Wenti up and walked out.This Liu Wen relied on himself as a scholar at the beginning, but he looked down on these peasants a lot. Now 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, this feng shui turns, no matter how capable.

Cheng Shang watched Liu Wen being carried out of the village from a distance, a trace of unknown emotion flashed in her eyes, Cheng Xia didn't notice, she also took a look at Liu Wen, this was the last time, because from now on, until She finally left this world, and she never saw Liu Wen again.

Mrs. Zhang was very happy, and felt that a big trouble had been solved, and Li Zheng's actions just now made Xiu'e and Mrs. Gu a little bit afraid, and they calmed down for a while, Mrs. Zhang was even more happy, insisting that Cheng Xia stay. Eat at home.

Cheng Xia missed Yang Dalang from Zhushe, so Mrs. Zhang asked Cheng You to invite him over, and said that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's have a reunion.

After lunch, Mrs. Zhang and Dahua began to discuss the matter of worshiping the moon at night.There was a mooncake maker in the neighboring village, Mrs. Zhang made a few catties and brought back two catties for Cheng Xia to take home to eat. She also picked good fruits for Cheng Xia to take with her.

It wasn't until dusk that the two men walked home with a full load of things.When I arrived at the bamboo house, I found Eucommia sitting cross-legged and drawing circles at the door. Seeing the two of them coming back, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I'm here to eat."

Cheng Xia curled her lips, she knew it.

She took things into the kitchen, Du Zhong followed Yang Dalang into the door.

"What did you do today? You weren't home early in the morning." Yang Dalang asked in a deep voice.

Du Zhong sighed, and shook the crab in his hand, "My father sent someone to bring it quickly. I came to eat today, and I also wanted to say goodbye to you. My father sent me a message to let me go back. "

Yang Dalang paused, "What's wrong?"

Du Zhong raised his eyebrows, "It is said that His Majesty is dying."
