Chapter 139
Master Decheng smiled at Shi Zelan: "I want to drink a cup of tea you made."
Shi Xiaoliu took out the small red stove and started a fire to make tea. Shi Zelan took out the tea set and invited Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng sat down.
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng looked at each other. They sat down with a smile and breathed a sigh of relief.
The wind in autumn is a bit rustling, but when you drink a cup of tea with fragrant tea, the autumn wind will feel a bit warm.
In the night. Master Decheng sighed: "I heard someone say something today, which is really unimaginable. A timid little daughter-in-law poisoned more than ten people in her husband's family in five or six years.
< br>Not long ago, the government investigated the case and found out about this little daughter-in-law. The neighbors came forward to plead for the little daughter-in-law, saying that her husband's family had gone too far and bullied others, forcing a good woman to kill her.
She was the one who killed her. They are all people who deserve to be killed. Her mother-in-law made her kneel on the ice to wash clothes in the middle of winter.
This is not the most desperate thing for this little daughter-in-law. After she had a child and had a miscarriage, her parents-in-law thought she could not give birth. She wanted to divorce her.
But her husband's family now lived in her dowry yard. Her husband's family wanted to seize the property, and the surrounding neighbors came forward to speak out.
The husband's family did not divorce the young daughter-in-law, and the mother-in-law quickly brought a widow from her parents' family to stay at home. "
Master Shanzheng glanced at Master Decheng: "Are the members of this little wife's tribe also dead? "
Master Decheng sighed and said: "If the tribe had a good person who could take charge, they would not force the daughter-in-law to poison her husband's family in order to protect herself. "
The next day, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng went out early and told Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan not to go too far when they went out.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were in the yard After working for a while, the two decided to take a walk nearby.
The two of them walked out of the yard, looked around, and Shi Xiaoliu said: "Go left today, go right next time."
Shi Zelan agreed: "Let's turn around and go to the well on the left Let’s listen to someone talk for a while.”
Shi Xiaoliu immediately stopped: “I won’t go, it’s just women sitting by the well chatting.”
“Let’s go, women. Everyone has gone home to do their business, and only the men are chatting by the well
If you don’t go, I can’t stop nearby and listen to their talk.”
"You want to hear what my master said when he came back yesterday, right?"
Shi Zelan smiled at him: "Xiao Liu, let's go."
"You are too curious. It’s heavy. Let’s go.”
Shi Xiaoliu walked in front and answered all the enthusiastic neighbors he met on the road.
"You brothers and sisters, go out."
"Yes, let's take a walk around the area."
"When will your family make pancakes for sale?"
"In ten days, if we want to eat pancakes, we will make more."< br>
While replying, Shi Xiaoliu led Shi Zelan forward, and Shi Zelan followed him with a smile on his face.
They walked to the well and saw an old woman washing vegetables by the well. Shi Xiaoliu looked back at Shi Zelan and narrowed his eyes.
Shi Zelan waved his fist at him: "Brother Xiaoliu, go forward."
Shi Xiaoliu took the lead, and when he reached the entrance of the alley, he looked back at Shi Zelan: "Are you going to keep walking?"
>
Shi Zelan turned around and walked back: "I'm back, I'm going back."
Shi Xiaoliu followed and walked back. The two stood by the empty well for a while, and then they were disappointed. Go back.
On their way back, they didn't meet any enthusiastic neighbors, so the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
They returned to the yard, and Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan: "I want to refine the elixir, what about you?" "I will accompany you, and I will draw the talisman."
Shi Xiaoliu The courtyard door was closed tightly, and he began to refine the elixir, while Shi Zelan drew the talisman with peace of mind.
The wind blew and the leaves fell. Shi Xiaoliu used his spiritual consciousness to observe the rolling of the elixirs in the alchemy furnace. Shi Zelan placed a stack of drawn talismans at his hand.
At Shenshi, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng came back from outside, their expressions were grave.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan looked at each other. Shi Xiaoliu went into the kitchen to fetch hot water. Shi Zelan took out the tea set and placed the tea cups in front of Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng.
Shi Xiaoliu brought out the hot water and Shi Zelan made tea. The aroma of tea spread out. After Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng drank a cup of tea, their expressions softened.
"Uncle, Master, did you encounter anything bad outside today?"
Master Decheng sighed softly: "The little daughter-in-law I mentioned yesterday committed suicide last night. "
Shi Zelan's expression changed and he took a deep breath: "She was locked up in the government, how could she commit suicide?"
"She is liberated this way." Master Shan Zheng said calmly.
"Uncle, Master, I know that she will not survive in the end, but I always feel a little uncomfortable when I hear that she died like this."
Master Decheng looked at her: " Alas, there are few miracles in this world.”
Master Shanzheng sighed: “There must be miracles in the world, but we have to live long to see them.”
It’s dark.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan walked towards the backyard. On the way, Shi Xiaoliu suddenly said: "Sister Lan, we must walk on the right path and use conspiracy to do things."
Shi Zelan glanced at him : "Both you and I can only use conspiracy.
There are too many injustices in the world. We still have to practice all the way and strive to save the real weak without hurting ourselves one day when we are heroic and righteous. ."
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan went into the room to meditate until it got light.
In the morning, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng decided to go to the Taoist temple outside the city to practice Zen. They once again refused Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan to follow them.
After they left, Shi Xiaoliu asked Shi Zelan: "Sister Lan, where are we going?"
Shi Zelan went to stand at the door of the yard, turned to Shi Xiaoliu and said: "We are going to the well again today. Take a look."
Shi Xiaoliu thought for a moment and said, "We won't go to the well for now. Let's open the courtyard door and listen to what's going on outside first."
Shi Zelan came from the courtyard. After returning to the yard from the door, she said to Shi Xiaoliu: "Should I read a book? Or do needlework?"
"Pfft, can you do needlework? You'd better show off with a book."
Shi Zelan sat at the table, took out an ancient book, and slowly read through it.
Shi Xiaoliu dug out a pile of herbs and took out her medicinal scissors to carefully cut the herbs.
When the neighbors passed by, they all stepped back in surprise: "Xiaoliu, Xiaolan, you are not going out today?"
Shi Xiaoliu said to the neighbors with scissors Said: "I will cut the herbs and Xiaolan will memorize them."
Shi Zelan secretly took a breath. If she had not memorized this book, she would not be able to bear Shi Xiaoliu's words.
Neighbors came in curiously and took a look at the book Shi Zelan was going to memorize. After reading it, they took a breath and looked at Shi Zelan, and their eyes were wrong.
"Xiaolan, do you really want to memorize such a thick book?"
Shi Zelan sighed: "My brother wants me to memorize this book. He said that it will be good for me to memorize it. "
The neighbors looked at Shi Xiaoliu: "Xiaoliu, your sister doesn't have to take the imperial examination, don't force her to endorse it."
Shi Zelan nodded repeatedly: "That's right. I don’t take the imperial examination, I don’t need to endorse it.”
