An He immediately put the rabbit fur cloak on Ripples. Ripples turned around in a circle. He felt very good and ordered: "An He, put it away. I will wear this when walking around in the village." One piece."
"Yes, Miss!"
An He agreed immediately, and was very satisfied with the fact that the two brothers and sisters were grateful. After all, no one wanted to help a white-eyed wolf. .
"Miss Su, this is the dried rabbit meat made by my eldest brother. It is delicious. You should also try it."
Yueyue could feel that the young lady in front of her was very friendly to them, so she became bolder. She took out an oil paper bag from the basket and placed it on the low table next to Lianyi on her tiptoes.
“Yueyue.”
Wen Zhaoyue called her sister in a low voice with some embarrassment.
Mainly, these rabbit meat jerky is not a gift, he intends to give it to Zhuangtou. For a refined person like Miss Su, this food is a bit vulgar, and besides, it is something for the mouth, and he does not want it. I'm afraid that people won't accept it.
"Really? Then let me try it."
Lianyi didn't mind. She took a small piece and smelled it. She knew that the jerky must have been made just today. Then she threw it directly into her mouth. After chewing it, she felt that it was quite chewy and slightly salty. It's spicy and can be eaten as a snack.
“It tastes pretty good, so I accepted it.”
An He had already put away the cloak. After listening to his lady’s words, he immediately took out a small white plate and wrapped it in oil paper. Pour out one-fifth of the rabbit meat in the dish, then put the plated rabbit meat on the table, put the rest away, and take it out when the lady wants to eat.
"Anhe, make a pot of tea."
Wen Zhaoming immediately waved his hand and said:
"Miss Su, don't bother. The things have been delivered. My sister and I are leaving now."
"The visitors are guests. Besides, it is a critical time for snow. Be careful that Yueyue catches a cold. You can wait until the snow stops or becomes lighter before leaving!"
Lianyi waved her hand directly.
After hearing this, Wen Zhaoming looked at the large swaths of snowflakes outside, then at his sister, and finally compromised. After all, nothing is more important than his sister's body.
When the tea was served, the scene was quiet for a moment, with only the sound of snow falling, filling the earth with a layer of silvery plain clothes.
Ripple enjoyed this quiet atmosphere. The only sounds in her ears were the sound of boiling water and falling snow. Then she picked up the warm wine and took a sip, feeling more and more comfortable.
Wen Zhaoming on the side also took a sip of hot tea. Since his mother passed away, he has not had a peaceful sleep. He is worried about his future and that he will not be able to support his sister. In addition, his aunt The plan with my brother-in-law.
He was a little frustrated for a time, and even complained about why he was not a woman. If he were a woman, he would definitely be able to keep the family well and protect his sister.
The events that happened one after another after the autumn harvest made him realize that he was still too weak, not only because he was a man, but also because his sister was underage. This time, it was a girl who was being sold, so the village chief If you go to war, what if you are the one who is betrayed?
At that time, he didn't dare to think about it further. Because his father was a migrant and left early, his mother was too straightforward and the family was very tense, so he didn't have many good friends with their family in the village.
This time, because my mother was gored to death by a wild boar while trying to protect the unharvested crops, it was considered a service to Wenjiazhuang. Otherwise, the few acres of farmland at home would have been taken back by the village.
"Brother Wen, I heard from Zhuangtou that there was a murder in your village, and it seems to be related to your uncle. Can you tell me about it?"
Rippled voice Pulled Wen Zhaoming out of his daze.
"That's what happened. It seems that the Zhou family themselves were not honest in doing things. My brother-in-law's matter was just a reason."
Wen Zhaoming told what happened and basically talked to Su Five people found out about the same thing.
"Although the county police have solved the murder case, I understand my brother-in-law's character. Although he is selfish, he does not have the courage to do anything to poison the whole family. I think he was probably used as a knife by his wife. "
Lianyi felt that Wen Zhaoming was very smart and saw the problem to the point.
"You are right, and I can tell you one more thing."
Lianyi said with a smile.
"What's the matter?" Wen Zhaoming asked doubtfully.
“After Zhou Niang fled with her family, she sold Third Brother Wen on the way to a woman with a bad temper.
This woman liked to drink, and would beat people when she drank too much. , the first two husbands divorced her because they couldn't stand her, which gave her a bad reputation in the community.
Someone suggested that she buy a husband, and she was forced to sell herself. In her hands, she can naturally do whatever she wants, and as long as a man escapes, he is a fugitive slave. Without status, he can't do anything."
After hearing what Rian Ripple said, Wen Zhaoming opened his mouth for a long time, obviously not expecting his uncle to fall. This is the end.
"Do you want to help him get out of the sea of suffering?"
Lianyi asked.
Wen Zhaoming just shook his head and said:
"You will get what you sow. He wants to sell his own niece, and the one who will be sold in the end is himself. I, a junior, can help I can’t help him.”
After listening to the other party’s words, Lianyi appreciated the other party even more. He is a person who can handle things clearly, and will not repay kindness with kindness, nor will he be kind-hearted.
Yueyue on the side couldn't understand what her eldest brother and Miss Su were talking about, but she knew that her uncle who betrayed her was punished, so she nodded and said:
"Brother, this is what you said. Let’s take karma!”
“Yes, Yueyue, we must remember that we should behave uprightly and not do bad things, but we must also be wary of others. This time it’s because of your negligence. , so that my uncle can succeed."
Wen Zhaoming never misses any opportunity to teach his sister.
"Don't worry, brother, Yueyue has written it down."
Ripple then curiously asked:
“From what little brother Wen said, it seemed that he had been studying for a few years.”
“I haven’t read any profound books, just my father’s I just learned to read and understand under my guidance."
Wen Zhaoming said with some nostalgia.
His father is a very gentle man. He always speaks and does things in a leisurely manner. He has taught him a lot. Even though he is not in good health, his mother still loves him very much.
"Oh? What books did your father teach you?"
Lianyi continued to ask.
“My father taught me to read the Three-Character Classic, the Thousand-Character Classic, and the Hundred Family Surnames, and he only taught me half of the book Men’s Virtues.”
Wen Zhaoming was indifferent. said.
""Male Virtue"? What's so interesting about this kind of book? You don't have to make yourself look stupid."
Lianyi raised an eyebrow and said.
Wen Zhaoming didn't expect that a woman could say such a thing. The most important thing was that he felt the same way.
“I don’t like it either, so I didn’t learn much.”
Wen Zhaoming said with bright eyes.
“You can go to my study and pick out a few books you like to read. I happen to have a copy of the Three Character Classic here. You can take it back to enlighten your sister.”
"This is not good."
Wen Zhaoming thought for a while and refused, then bit his lip and asked:
"Miss Su, you, you, why are you so nice to me? ?”
