peasant young lady

Chapter 252

Cheng Xia and Cheng You stayed with Mrs. Zhang in the room until dusk.

Cheng Xia got up and left the room, and saw Cheng Zuo was sitting on a chair with his head drooped, Father Cheng was squatting in the corner smoking a pipe, and Mrs. Gu was fussing about something in her room, and could only hear Flipping through the movement, but can't see what it's doing.

The sky had already darkened, and it was only a quarter of an hour before Maozheng.

Cheng Xia walked out of the yard and looked towards the direction of the east avenue, but after a while, he saw Yang Dalang driving towards here in a carriage with Xiaolong in his arms.Yang Dalang nodded to Cheng Xia, and pointed to the direction behind, Cheng Xia understood that her uncle had arrived in the bamboo forest.

Cheng Xia asked Yang Dalang to take Xiaolong home first, saying that he would go back at night, but later, so he should not worry.

After sending Yang Dalang away, she saw Aunt Tian walking towards Cheng's house, she winked at Cheng Xia, and hurried in the door, and after a while, she saw Mrs. Gu adjusting the corners of her clothes, and followed Aunt Tian out suspiciously .

While walking by Xia's side, Mrs. Gu gave her a hard look, then walked away with a grunt.

Cheng Xia sneered, and walked back to the room leisurely.Seeing Father Cheng who was looking out wonderingly, he suddenly smiled, "Want to know what she did? Let me tell you, she went to the bamboo forest."

Seeing Father Cheng raised his head in amazement, Cheng Xia smiled and shook his head, "I want to know why I went to the bamboo forest? Because my uncle is here, how about it, I can't believe it," Cheng Xia raised her eyebrows, "She sold my younger brother for I came back with 100 taels of silver, and my mother was killed for it. But now, she is going to send the silver to my uncle. What, does your face hurt? You hit your face hard, why didn’t you get killed. If you don't believe it, just go and have a look, and you will know what kind of wrong things you have done."

Seeing Father Cheng and Cheng Zuo chasing them out in a hurry, Cheng Xia turned and left Cheng's house, and went to the foot of the mountain where he took Zheng Guan to hide when he captured Cuihua and Brother Wang last time.

When she arrived, Zheng Guan was already waiting there, Cheng Xia greeted him, almost nodded at the Yamen hidden on the mountain, and led Zheng Guan directly to Cheng's house.

It was completely dark at the moment, there were not many people walking on the road, but Cheng Xia only lowered her head when she saw it, and the others knew what happened today, so they wisely didn't talk to her.

He directly brought Zheng Guan into the empty Cheng's house, and then into Mrs. Zhang's room. When Cheng You saw this strange man, he hurriedly hid beside Cheng Xia.

Cheng Xia knew that he was still frightened by that pervert Huo Yuanwai, so he quickly comforted him, "Don't be afraid, little brother, this is the magistrate."

When Cheng You heard this, he was stunned for a moment and suddenly knelt down in front of Zheng Guan with a plop, "Master County, you want to avenge my mother."

Zheng Guan quickly helped Cheng You up, and repeatedly assured, "I will, this is my duty, don't worry."

Zheng Guan glanced at Mrs. Zhang on the bed by the dim light in the room, his eyes were black and purple, it was really shocking, his face turned cold, and he sighed, "Bury your mother as soon as possible."

"Well," Cheng Xia nodded, that's what she originally meant, "When what happened tonight is over and the revenge is avenged, I'll let my mother die in peace."

Cheng Xia glanced at the sky outside, there was no light in the bamboo forest in the distance, and she didn't know where the matter had progressed, so Cheng Xia turned her head and said to Zheng Guan, "I'll go out and have a look, when Mrs. Gu comes back , please trouble the magistrate to hide in this closet, I won't let the magistrate wait too long."

Zheng Guan waved his hand indifferently, "You can go, I'm fine."

Cheng Xia touched Cheng You's face, "Sister, go out for a while and be back in a while, can you wait here with the magistrate?"

"Sister," Cheng You twisted the corner of Cheng Xia's clothes carefully, and still looked at Zheng Guan timidly.

Cheng Xia knew that he had lingering fears, but he couldn't let Zheng Guan face Mrs. Zhang alone, "Little brother, mother is still here and still needs your care, so don't you just ignore it?"

"No, I, I didn't mean that." Cheng You anxiously argued.

"I know," Cheng Xia nodded, and whispered into Cheng You's ear, "The county magistrate is a good man, my sister will guarantee you, don't be afraid."

Cheng You bit his lip and finally agreed.

Cheng Xia hurriedly walked towards the bamboo grove, and when she got to the depths, she saw two furtive figures not far ahead, she immediately sneered, Father Cheng and Cheng Zuo were secretly listening.

Cheng Xia didn't disturb them, and stopped a little behind Cheng's father. She wanted to hear what Gu's and that shameless uncle said, and also clearly saw Cheng's expression and reaction.

A man's voice came suddenly, interrupting Cheng Xia's thoughts. She looked for the reputation and saw the shadow of a short and fat man. Uncle really doesn't look like a real brother.

"Mother, quickly take out the money, I will take you back to the town to enjoy your blessings." The eagerness in the voice was too obvious.

Gu Shi was taken aback, "How do you know? Also, who asked you to come?" Gu Shi asked the key point directly after eating so many years.

"Didn't my mother ask me to come and get the silver?" The uncle's voice was full of confusion, "Oh, don't worry about this, I know that mother sold Cheng You and took 100 taels of silver. I don't want my son to serve that old pervert. I never thought that my mother would send Cheng You over there. Isn't that just right? It's not a loss if we use the money."

Exactly your size!Cheng Xia took two deep breaths, letting herself ignore the shamelessness of her uncle, and only focus on dealing with Gu Shi first. As for the uncle, he can settle accounts later when he has time.

Gu said displeasedly, "What does this money have to do with you? I used it for my own retirement."

"Oh mother," the uncle saw that Gu's back was turned to him, and quickly walked around to Gu's, "Mother, don't you love me the most, why can't you give up this money? Could it be that mother wants to share the money with elder brother? "

"Hmph," Gu snorted coldly, "Even if I give you everything, I still get kicked out by you in the end. I've been hurting you for so many years, and you have no conscience."

"Mother," the uncle began to act coquettishly, "You also know that Shu Ning has the temper of a young lady, and it is inevitable that she will not get used to living with her mother-in-law, but it is different now. If Mother comes back with 100 taels of silver, she will definitely I will be filial to my mother. When my mother tells her to go east, she dare not go west, but if you talk about a sea of ​​fire, she dare not go to the mountain of swords."

"It's better now that I know my mother." Gu's tone obviously weakened, and he seemed to be a little loose, "I knew it would become like this, why did you go there before?"

"Didn't I know mother's ability a long time ago?" The uncle smiled obsequiously, "It's not easy for mother to live with elder brother. In this poor and remote village, where can I live comfortably in a big house in the town? Wait for mother to go Now, I will build a bigger room for my mother alone, which is better than the one we live in."

Gu's face was filled with joy, "You still have a conscience."

The uncle chuckled, "Thanks to my mother's good skills, I know how to get Cheng You's broom star out. I have already said that it is the broom star that blocked our family's fortune. After he leaves, we will make a fortune. Isn't that true?" , 100 taels of silver, and I got it. Even if my sister-in-law died, I really can’t bear it.” After all, when he was young, Zhang took a lot of care of him.

"Bah!" Upon hearing her son say such words, Gu was not happy, "I can't bear to be a fart, that woman has always been against me, I have long wanted to kill her, and that big flower, even a bitch I can't even get it out. I just want to let Dahua go, and then let Zhang die, but anyone who dares to oppose me, I will make them look good."

"Yes, yes, yes," the uncle replied hurriedly, "When has Mother been bullied by others, they are beyond their control. That is," the uncle suddenly became worried, "If Mother leaves with me, if Brother chases you to the town How can I ask for the 100 taels of silver?"

"He dares!" Gu said fiercely, "Your elder brother is a soft bastard. He has grown into a big man, but he is actually quite useless. Why do you worry about him? You just need to be filial to your mother and me. You shouldn't worry about the rest."

"That's right," the uncle flattered again, "Mom, I came here by car, do you have any money with you now?"

"How can there be?" Gu touched the flat clothes, "I just found a safe place to hide the silver, so I didn't know you were going to take me back."

"Then mother, go back and get it now. I'll wait for mother outside the bamboo forest. When you pack up and come over, let's go directly to the town and never suffer in this corner again."

"Okay," Gu replied in one breath. She has always been coaxed by her most beloved young son. Whenever he speaks soft words, she loses her ability to distinguish.

Mrs. Gu turned her head to walk to Cheng's house, but suddenly found that Father Cheng and Cheng Zuo, who had livid faces, were standing in front of them. Mrs. Gu's expression froze, and she immediately yelled out displeasure, "Why are you here?"

"Mother, you lied to me again!" Father Cheng's tone was full of hurt, "Back then you were so devoted to the third younger brother, he would have abandoned you, now that you have money, you want to go back with him again? Do you think the end will be better? Also, what am I, my family is going to be ruined because of my mother, why doesn't my mother consider me?"

Seeing his eldest son who had never dared to speak loudly to him contradict him like this, Gu's face turned cold, "You're just talking to me like that?"

"I don't talk like that, my mother never looks down on me, does she?"

"Damn it!" Then Gu suddenly thought of why San'er came back from the town, why she came here, and why the eldest son followed, Gu slapped her head suddenly, she was fooled.

Seeing Gu's appearance in the distance, Cheng Xia hurriedly turned and walked back.

She returned to Cheng's house in a hurry, let Zheng Guan hide in the closet, thought for a while, let Cheng You go in with her, and said kindly, "No matter what happens, keep quiet until I let you out." Come out again."

Cheng Xia turned around and took out the things she had prepared a long time ago. Seeing that Mrs. Gu had rushed in angrily, she quickly equipped herself and appeared in front of her the moment Mrs. Gu opened the door.
