Looking up at the stars in 1946

At the beginning of June, a major event happened in Yuanmao Tun, that is—the master Qi of the Qi family compound died.

The news shocked the whole village, and everyone, except the deaf-mute and demented, talked about it.Why did Master Qi die?Didn't he just have a good time in the brothel in the county not long ago?Could it be that he got another disease?Oh no!How did that die?Knocked to the head and fell to death?Choked to death while eating?Drunk and drowned in the water?How can it be!What was he like when he died?Is it still that fierce look?Has your hair fallen out?Is the thing under him rotten?How could it be so bizarre!

There were so many strange theories, and the more people said, the more exaggerated and outrageous they became. In the end, even the rumors that Master Banner faked his death, which was because he was covering up a certain conspiracy, came out.It's no wonder that the people in the village have such thoughts, it's really that Master Qi's death is so strange that it must arouse people's daydreams.However, everyone was very happy when they thought that Master Qi had died like this. Even if he didn't really die, it was also very happy to be able to curse this old bastard.

So, is Master Qi really dead?If this question is asked by Qi Si, the current head of the Qi Family Compound, to answer it, he will tell you straightforwardly: dead, dead thoroughly, and I personally watched the corpse and put it into the coffin.

Then your father died, why don't you look sad at all?someone asked.

My dad died a long time ago, and now that one is just an old beast.

The others shut up in embarrassment, after all, this is the Qi family's housework, talking too much is just annoying.

Master Banner's death is also embarrassing to say the least.He had several thin holes pierced by something in his abdomen, but the blood didn't flow much. At first he thought it was not a big deal, but the doctor said that all internal organs were pierced and leaked, and he couldn't mend it. I'm afraid he couldn't survive. long.Master Qi didn't believe it, so he tied up the holes in his abdomen with gauze, and the flesh will grow back in a few days.Who knew that soon after, the stomach started to hurt, throbbing, gouging, and distressing, no matter how it was tortured, at first she could lie down and curse Tang Peilian, but later the pain intensified, and she turned into crying and begging God, don't come and take his life so soon.It's just that his heart is still very hot, and while begging for his life, he didn't forget to ask Qi Si to drag the injured and unconscious Tang Peilian to fill the well.

Qi Si just sneered when he heard this, if it wasn't for the fact that Master Qi is his father, Qi Si would probably not have slapped him twice at this time.

"I'll keep the man for you. When you can get up, you can fill the well, bury it alive, or kill yourself." Qi Si replied.

"Where's Ah Shui? His father suffered such serious injuries, why didn't he come over to take a look?" Master Qi asked.

Qi Si was silent, clenched his palms into fists, and said after a while, "Ah Shui is not feeling well, the doctor asked him to rest more."

"You tell him to come and show me."

"He is sleeping."

Master Qi didn't say a word, the original two red phoenix eyes were ruined by him into a pair of hanging eyes:

"Fourth, my patience is limited. Now that I'm unhappy, don't think about it for any of you!"

After hearing this sentence, Qi Si laughed instead, but it was a bit ferocious:

"In this family, no one will have a good time when you are here."

These words directly made Master Qi vomit blood out of anger.

Qi Si didn't want to argue with him anymore, so he asked Xiao Yuan to bring the two aunts to serve him, and went directly to Qi Yishui's house.

Qi Yishui's situation is very bad.Although Master Qi didn't have time to cause any actual harm to him, the fact that he was almost raped by his own father still frightened him a lot.Qi Si remembered that when he first stepped into the room in the morning, the room was in a mess. Master Qi and Tang Peilian were lying on the ground, while Qi Yishui was curled up in a corner shivering, wrapped in a torn robe.

Qi Si's moment can be said to be full of mixed flavors.He was somewhat unable to face Qi Yishui.Because deep in his heart, there was a period of time when he thought about Qi Yishui.It's just that Qi Yishui and Qi Yishan got married later, and Qi Yishan became an officer again, so Qi Si gradually lost his mind.But now, seeing Qi Yishui being bullied so pitifully, while Qi Si felt resentment, he also felt some secret pleasure, as if his long-cherished wish for many years had finally come true.

Qi Si called Qi Yishui several times before he raised his head.Half of his left cheek was swollen, his teeth had chipped his lips, and there were streaks of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.Seeing Qi Si, Qi Yishui's dry eyes filled with tears again:

"Si..."

The voice was soft and thin, with a little hoarseness, as if it contained a lot of sadness and emotion, Qi Si's heart trembled when he heard it, and he quickly stretched his hands under his ribs, and directly hugged him horizontally.It happened that Lao Li had heard the news and rushed over, so Qi Si handed Master Qi and Tang Peilian to him and asked him to find a doctor to show them.After saying this, Qi Si lowered his head to look at the person in his arms, who knew that Qi Yi nodded his head, with one hand drooping, and had already passed out.

In the evening, Qi Yishui developed a low-grade fever, and his whole body was in a daze, talking nonsense.Fortunately, after seeing it, the doctor said it's okay, just rest for a few days and it will be fine.Grandma Qi's injury is not a big deal, but she knocked her head, and I'm afraid it will leave a scar in the future.The most troublesome thing is Master Qi. Although people look at him with a full beard and tail, only a few holes are left in the abdomen, but if he feels the pulse, he may not live long.Rather than just suffering to death like this, it is better to take some opium, and go away with peace of mind.

The doctor's words can't be hidden from Master Qi.At the beginning, he was so stubborn that he didn't want to eat it, and he was afraid that he would really die if he ate it.Later, the pain was unbearable and he wanted to eat, but Qi Si refused.

"Fuck you! Quickly bring me some opium!" Master Qi yelled while lying on the kang.

The butler, Lao Li, stood with his head down. Hearing this, he raised his head and glanced at Qi Si.

Qi Si kept his hands behind his back and didn't move, his face was expressionless.Lao Li knew that this was not allowed.He has been with Qi Si for many years, and he knows that sometimes he cannot be persuaded at all.

The two serving aunts have been sent away, and there are only three of them left in the house.The summer wind blows in through the window, bringing a touch of coolness.The sun was almost setting.

Master Qi's stomach hurt more and more, and cold sweat began to break out on his head.In the beginning, he was able to curse Qi Si loudly for being unfilial, cursing Qi Si for being struck by lightning sooner or later, but then his voice became smaller and smaller, and he could only moan, and his whole body slowly curled up into the shape of a shrimp:

"Ah...give me...give me opium...Yi Xiu...I am your father..."

Master Qi's voice became lower and lower, and gradually became silent, only panting.Unknowingly, the room has plunged into darkness.Qi Si didn't say a word, and Lao Li didn't dare to step forward to ask if he wanted to light the lamp.

In this black-like darkness, Master Qi breathed intermittently and uninterruptedly, sometimes quickly, as if black and white impermanence threatened his life, and sometimes slowly, as if the king of Hades was also merciful.

Lao Li was very anxious when he heard that, he was afraid that Master Qi would die like this, but also afraid that he would not die.The night was too dark and the starlight was too dim, and Lao Li couldn't see Qi Si's face clearly, but he knew that Qi Si must also be feeling uncomfortable.

After all, Master Qi is Qi Si's father.Even though this father is something inferior to a beast, he has done many things that make people feel alienated.But after all, Master Qi's blood was flowing on Qi Si's body. Seeing his own father hurt to death like this, Lao Li couldn't believe that Qi Si didn't feel any emotion at all.

After a long time, just when Lao Li thought everything would be quiet until dawn, Qi Si suddenly spoke:

"Old Li, light the lamp and bring some opium cigarettes over here."

Lao Li was stunned for a long time before he understood Qi Si's words, he took a step, staggered, and almost fell, but he hurriedly lit the lamp, took opium, and just wanted to help Master Qi up to feed him I ate a little, but when I stretched out my hand, I was stunned:

"Fourth master, master has gone."

Originally, Qi Si didn't want to make a big deal about Master Qi's death, because he died so embarrassingly and wanted to rape his own son.Lao Li advised him that once a person dies, it's over, and it doesn't matter whether the burial is good or bad.So this funeral is not for the dead, but for the living.The greater the ability of a living person, the more successful he will be.Our Qi family is considered one of the best in Yuanmao Tun, and Mr. Qi has been a prominent figure in Yuanmao Tun for decades. If this funeral is hasty, I am afraid that other families will ridicule him and make outsiders mistake him for Mr. Qi. Once he dies, there will be no one in our Qi family compound.

After all, Lao Li has eaten more than [-] years more than Qi Si, and he is more thoughtful about things.Qi Si heard that what he said made sense, so he asked him to handle Master Qi's affairs according to Master Qi's specifications.After Tang Peilian found out about this incident, she also agreed with Lao Li's reasons. Although she resented Master Qi, she married into the Qi family after all. She was born as a member of the Qi family and died as a ghost of the Qi family. I despised the one who went there.When she was desperate with Master Qi, she was thinking of dying with him. Later, she failed to die, but Master Qi died anyway. The crime of killing her husband cannot be escaped, and I am afraid she will have to spend the rest of her life in prison pass.Who knew that Qi Si quietly suppressed Master Qi's death, saying that it was a sudden and sudden death.

Tang Peilian originally didn't want to lead Qi Si.Qi Si said: "I'm not doing it for you, but for the reputation of the Qi family. It's a family scandal if a wife kills her husband. If there is incest between father and son, the reputation of our Qi family will be completely rotten."

Tang Peilian was also silent for a while when she heard this, and finally said with a sigh: "Now you are the head of the family, so you can do whatever you want. If one day you go back on your word and want to send me away, you don't have to hide it until now. Just say it."

Qi Si glanced at her and said, "You are Master Qi's first wife. If he doesn't divorce you for a day, you will be the grandma of the Qi family. Although I can't be called filial, I can still support an idler."

Tang Peilian lowered her head and said nothing, her eyes were a little red.She thought, how could she never have thought that she actually had more than one son.
