Chapter 69 Production (1)
March 28 is the day to move, break ground, pray for blessings, and lay beds...
On Fulong Street, people from the Chen family moved things. Send them one by one to the carriage.
After a while, everyone knew that this house would belong to Liu Tang from now on.
The boy changed his name from Chen Tang to Liu Tang and finally got his mother's dowry back.
They are just old neighbors for many years. Although Wang is a vicious stepmother, she is still kind to outsiders like them.
Not to mention Chen Chong, now like this...
Everyone who originally sympathized with Liu Tang's experience and was not ashamed of Chen Chong and the Wang family began to feel that he was too cruel.
No matter how bad they were, they still raised him and let him study. Otherwise, why would he take the exam to become a scholar? If you don't even know the words, why should you test someone?
“Dear neighbors!”
Chen Chong looked like he had aged ten years. When everyone looked over, he bowed deeply and said, "Thank you for taking care of you all these years. Everyone in the village knows what Chen is like, but a real man will inevitably have an unkind wife and a son." It's unfilial, but no matter how bad they are, it's still Chen's responsibility. Today, Chen will move to the old house in Nanlai Lane. If there is anything that Chen can use, let him know as before, Chen will do his best. "
Speaking of this, he bowed again, "This house is my first wife's dowry, and from today on it belongs to my son...Liu Tang."
The name of his son seemed to make him uncomfortable.
Everyone around him could hear his choking.
However, Chen Chong seemed to be trying his best to hold back, "I hope all my fellow villagers will take more care of my son Liu Tang as before! Chen... is so grateful."
His appearance The old men couldn't bear to see it, and they all helped him, "How can father and son have an overnight feud? Nanlai Lane is not far from here. Mr. Chen should go here if he has nothing to do. Without the Wang family, you father and son will always be there." They will get back together."
"Exactly! Didn't Wang have his mouth swollen and even lost eight of his teeth? Also for Chen Tang... Oh no, Liu Tang's kid is a little angry. I can't really let you divorce Mr. Wang. She has raised him after all."
"Yes. Yes! "
Everyone really felt sorry for Chen Chong at this meeting.
As he said, a real man will inevitably have an unvirtuous wife and an unfilial son. This is fate.
Who would have thought that while he was working hard outside, his step-wife and son would be in trouble at home?
Even if he knew about it and wanted to take care of it, his stepwife was nearly ten years younger than him and had given birth to a pair of children. His heart... would always be biased in one direction.
Liu Tang could endure it before, and he can actually endure it in the future.
It’s just that Wang went too far and angered the Jia family again.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, we will help you persuade Brother Tang to change his surname to Liu."
"Yes, Brother Tang is a filial child. Father, I will definitely understand your difficulties."
"Thank you! Thank you!"
Chen Chong said goodbye to his fellow villagers for a while before getting into the carriage.
But after getting on the carriage, he even lifted the curtain and reluctantly looked at the Chen Mansion and the street where he had lived for more than 20 years. It seemed that each of them made him extremely reluctant to leave.
Everyone couldn’t help but sigh.
But no one knew that after crossing this street, Chen Chong, who put down the curtain, punched the cushion with a murderous look on his face.
“Go to Liansheng Inn.”
The moving scene is over, and now it’s time for him to take revenge.
Although the Chen family's old house is close to the street, it only has three rooms and the yard is small. This time, I was able to buy all the houses on the left, right and front and put them together, thanks to my friends in Jiangnan.
Of course, he knows better that the other party's target is also the Jia family.
The south of the Yangtze River was rich, and the salt merchants were the richest among the rich.
Chen Chong was thinking in his mind that the Chen family and the Wang family would each pay for one or more lives.
For cooperation, of course you provide the money and I provide the people.
If you don’t have enough money, don’t think about me.
At this time, being cheap is a loss.
If you don't be a cruel person, it will be difficult to be a good person.
The carriage passed through the crowd and finally arrived at Liansheng Inn.
......
In Ningguo Mansion, Shen Ning has been very kind to the good boy recently. When shopkeeper Chen came to invite Ping Anmai, he even asked the good boy to take a look.
Jia Zhen ate the dish that was added every day, but she felt panicked.
Her mother has been treating everyone well lately.
Father's private property, her dowry, the gift from her grandmother before her death, everything was sorted out.
Make a good preparation for the distribution of these things after her accident.
Even Jiao Da got a street shop with people living in the back and business in the front, as if he was afraid that he and Ronger would not support him in his old age.
“Uncle, isn’t today’s roast venison delicious?”
Youshi felt that he was having a hard time eating, "Why are you..."
"I feel bad!"
Jia Zhen put down her chopsticks, "It's already April before I see it."
"..."
Youshi also sighed, "Otherwise, starting from tomorrow, let's all eat in mother's yard!"
"OK!"
Jia Zhen agreed without hesitation.
But he doesn’t know yet that in the capital at this time, a large net targeting the Jia family has quietly been launched.
……
At dawn on the second day of April, a heavy rain prevented many people from going out.
The rain finally stopped, and when everyone was about to do whatever they were supposed to do, a shrill cry came from the end of Changshun Alley.
"Oh, boss, this is terrible, come here quickly, son..., son..."
In the ditch in front of the door, a man was outside, but his head was submerged In the water, motionless.
When a few brave ones stepped forward to turn him over, they were so shocked that they fell back.
The man's eyes were wide-eyed, as if he was not dead in peace.
Many of his fingernails were turned over. It seemed that he struggled too much when he was forced into the water. He left many scratches on the rocks of the ditch before he died.
Even on the ground, there are many traces of pedals.
“Oh my god~”
When Chen Laoliu saw his son’s miserable state, he rolled his eyes and fell over.
The alleys surrounding Fulong Street have been very peaceful recently. Everyone knows that the Jia family is taking revenge on the Chen and Wang families.
Today someone falls and breaks his leg, and tomorrow someone falls and breaks his head accidentally, sometimes even several in a day.
But after Mr. Chen gave up and moved the day before yesterday, wasn't it already peaceful?
Why did it start again?
Who can bear the loss of life?
Someone reported to the official soon.
Although there is no evidence that it was the Jia family who did it, the neighbors all thought it was the Jia family.
I don’t know who will be unlucky next.
Sure enough, on the third day of April, a woman was hanged in front of the former Chen Mansion on Fulong Street.
“Oh, isn’t this Wang Chongjing’s wife?”
“I heard that she is also the dowry maid of Mr. Chen’s first wife, Mrs. Liu.”
"Yes, yes, I know about this too."
All the women they saw were watching and whispering to each other.
The Wang family's life is very comfortable. I heard that the Wang family was very generous to the bride's dowry maid. When she showed her to her cousin who was lame, he released her from slavery and gave her to her. Got many dowries.
Although they are not as powerful as slaves and maids, they are still better than ordinary people.
But now he is hanging here...
Whatever he is doing is wrong!
Amid the wails of the Wang family, the Yamen servants from Shuntian Mansion came over quickly, accompanied by experienced police officers.
On this day, Xing'er was taken to the government office for questioning.
On the fourth day of April, another old man from the Chen family fell down outside his hut in the back street of Fulong Street and died on the spot. On the same day, in Jiuru Lane, only two miles away from the back street, an old man from the Wang family fell down. The old lady was also found dead at home. Whether she died of old age or was murdered, we need to find out!
For a while, the residents around Fulong Street were in danger.
Although they are neither the Chen family nor the Wang family, the deaths of these two families are so frequent that they turn these streets into a murderous place. No one dares to go out when it gets dark. But for several nights in a row, some people saw the flickering ghost fire wandering on the street.
Oh my, something big has happened.
Taoist priests and monks began to come in and out of Fulong Street.
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Jia Zhen was invited to the government office for a cup of tea.
But when he came back, he smashed a set of tea bowls from the official kiln.
“Son of a bitch, who is harming me?”
The people in their family who should be evacuated have already been evacuated.
But even when the anger was at its peak, Jiao Da and the others did not hurt anyone.
At most, break your leg, find a few gangsters, and go to two shops to cause trouble. While disrupting the business, you can also extort some money.
Everything is done in a small way.
"Uncle..."
Jiao Da looked solemn, "Didn't I tell you before that the injuries of Chen Qiqi and others were more serious than those we originally hit?"
Perhaps the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind.
“Didn’t I ask you to check?”
Jia Zhen stared, “What? It hasn’t been found yet?”
“…That person’s movements are better than ours Hurry."
Twice in a row, they only saw a shadow and couldn't catch up.
Jiao Da was also helpless, "Master, otherwise, I can go and tell Mr. Dong!" When he followed Master Jia Jing, he had met Mr. Dong, "This matter may be worse than we imagined. It’s even more powerful.”
“…No need, Lord Dong, let’s be careful.”
His father, who is the same age, is pretty good.
But the invisible enemy still made Jia Zhen anxious, "Brother Rong is going to school, so send a few more people to follow him."
Who is dealing with their family?
"Also, don't tell your wife about this in advance."
If I wait a few days, my mother will probably give birth.
"You..."
Jia Zhen turned around, and when she stood in front of Jiao Da, she finally said: "A palace guard will bring four boys. From today on, Follow the patrol officers, and divide each team into two groups, light and dark, to keep an eye on Fulong Street."
If you dare to accuse the Jia family, you are seeking death.
He didn't find anyone before, but now...
"Uncle, it's okay to keep an eye on him."
Jiao Da was also holding back his anger, "But our first priority now is to find Chen Chong and the Wang family. Since they cooperate with the people behind them, wouldn't they be afraid at all if the Chen and Wang families died like this? If they The stupid ones are not afraid, we have to watch them not to be silenced."
He lived a long life and saw many fools who were silenced and smart people who thought they were smart.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Jia Zhen reacted, "Hit the car!"
He was going to see Chen Chong immediately.
Xing'er hurried out.
At this moment, a little maid broke in and said, "Master, my wife has started it."
What?
Jia Zhen was so shocked that she ran out first.
After these days of recuperation, Mrs. Zhong’s injury is fine. Mrs. Liu can also help, but they are not doctors after all.
That day, Jia Yan had a difficult delivery, and the pills and urgently prescribed medicine brought by shopkeeper Chen were very effective.
Seeing Jia Zhen jump into the car, and the guards on shift also followed, Jiao Da glanced at the inner courtyard with a particularly complicated expression, and then quickly went out to look for someone.
At this time, Shen Ning's labor pains had begun.
Her face looked ugly.
It's not that the stomach pain is unbearable, but that she and Jiao Dao agreed that the day of delivery would be the time to take action.
When he first came here, he disliked Jia Zhen so much that he even thought about breaking his legs and confining him at home to be controlled by Youshi.
But during this period of time together, Jia Zhen was not the bastard in the Red Mansion who had nothing to do with her father after her mother died, and was in charge of heaven and earth.
He is extremely filial to his mother. Although he is not very smart, he listens to advice.
I never compromise on what I was told, and everything was done very well.
Shen Ning didn’t know if her decision was right, but when things came to a close, she had no choice but to ask Jiao Da to withdraw.
"Madam, eat something, otherwise you will lose strength in a while."
Zhong Wenpo and Liu Wenpo were very confident in her at first, but now when they saw..., they both felt nervous again. Come on.
“It’s done!”
Shen Ning was also afraid that she would have no strength, which meant death.
However, after just two bites, she couldn't swallow it.
I feel like vomiting if I eat any more.
Psychologically, she just couldn't eat it.
"Get ready for ginseng!"
Another burst of pain hit, Shen Ning said with difficulty: "When I have no strength, I will take a piece of ginseng."
"The ginseng is ready." Liu Wenpo's right hand was broken and she couldn't help her touch her belly. She could only say: "Madam, don't think about anything else now, just think about your child. The most important thing is to give her a safe birth." It’s important.”
"..."
Shen Ning stopped talking and nodded slightly.
Zhong Wenpo carefully checked her belly to make sure there was nothing wrong, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, the baby is fine, your health is good, and you will be able to give birth safely."
Pregnant women should not be afraid. Once they are afraid, problems will easily arise.
Obviously she would be able to overcome the hurdle if she worked harder, but she was afraid and resigned herself to her fate, and it was very likely that she would lose her strength all of a sudden.
When the time comes, there will really be one dead and two dead.
“I’m not afraid!”
Shen Ning is actually a little scared.
Although I have worked hard for so long, the child has not been raised too big, but in modern times, giving birth to a child is unexpected, let alone nowadays.
I heard an old man say earlier that when a woman gives birth to a child, she has one foot in the door of hell.
She just got used to it here...
"Where's You?"
If something unexpected happens, the child cannot be brought to Xifu to be raised by Jia's mother.
"Come, come, mother, I'm here."
There were urgent footsteps outside the door, and You rushed in, "Mother, I'm here, don't be afraid, The uncle went to ask for shopkeeper Chen. It was so difficult for Sister Yan to give birth to the child safely, let alone you."
"I'm not afraid..."
You are very smart. Although her family background didn't seem to be worthy of Jia Zhen, when she first married her, Yuan Shen and Jia Jing looked at her again and again.
Shen Ning wanted to tell her, I will leave Jia Zhen, Brother Rong and the baby in my belly to you.
But she couldn't say these words, and she said them as if she were giving her last words.
"This is not the place you should be. Go outside and wait, Jia Zhen... help me keep an eye on him and Brother Rong, tell them not to worry."
In a little while, Brother Rong will finish school.
Shen Ning said: "Brother Rong is here, let him study in the courtyard."
If something unexpected happens to her, Jia Rong will study well with just this order.
Sorry, there is only one update today, it is too busy. My parents planted sesame seeds in the open space outside the community. When they went to harvest them early in the morning, they accidentally cut their hands. Three of my mother's hand tendons were broken and the blood flowed uncontrollably.
I am really convinced. The old couple are going everywhere to open up wasteland. They wish they could take all the food, vegetables and oil for our siblings.
Fortunately, there are no mountains around us. If there were mountains, they could level the mountains with hoes and go farming
