Butcher and little girl

Chu Yu just came back from Qiaocun. The next day, he was going to go out again. Mu Dingxiang didn't say anything. When she went to look for her with Zhu'er in her arms, she was full of words. Don't kill pigs for a few days, and wait for Chu Yu Come back again? Say.

I didn't know what happened at the time, but recently Wang Xiaoxi was pregnant and vomited badly in the past few months, so he simply closed the shop for a month and went home to take care of his wife.

Mu Dingxiang went to Liu's mansion on the way, and they didn't see each other for many days. Ji Yunniang hugged Zhu'er and was very affectionate.

Just when Liu Zhuo Xiumu took Zhu'er out to play, the mother and daughter sat down and chatted.

Ji Yunniang asked Chu Yu's whereabouts, and Mu Dingxiang vaguely guessed that it had something to do with Chu's father, because Chu Yu went to Jiangzhou this time, the place where Chu's father had an accident, but nothing has happened yet. She didn't know what to say, but she turned around and asked what Liu Niannian was up to recently.

"She and her father go to work in the shop all day long. Usually, they seldom spend time at home, and sometimes they come back late and I don't even see her when I go to bed."

Mu Dingxiang couldn't help but rejoice that she wasn't assigned to take over these things. The intrigues in the mall are annoying to watch, and she hasn't won a fight with Mu's husband and wife for many years. To replace Liu Niannian, I'm afraid he will? He will be eaten to pieces.

Now, when I heard that Liu Niannian is still so busy, he said with some emotion: "I'm usually busy with planting and harvesting when I'm farming at home, and I'm also idle at home at other times, but Niannian is so okay It’s tiring to think about it after a day of leisure.”

"It depends on personal preferences. If Niannian is asked to go back to farm, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for a day. But if you are asked to patrol the store and supervise the workshop to arrange the import and export, you may also find it difficult. Put it in the right position." It's not that difficult." Ji Yunniang could see clearly.

"Okay, anyway, I think it's pretty good now? By the way, Chu Yu said to pay attention to the Bai family. If you? See Yuan Baotou? If you have nothing to do, invite her to come home for dinner. Niannian and her It's good to get close, at least you won't be afraid of being targeted by bad guys." Mu Dingxiang remembered Chu Yu's exhortation before leaving, and told Ji Yunniang.

Ji Yunniang didn't like the Bai family in the first place, but later she found out that the Bai family and the Ding family still had such a relationship, and she treated them like a scourge, so she didn't give her any good looks.

"I know, now that she's going out? I'll let Chunhua and a servant follow her, and then a groom, and Niannian and Yuan Butou have gotten closer recently, so I can't see anything."

After finishing speaking, Ji Yunniang asked suddenly: "Your father's? It means that he wants to find some time to recognize you. What do you think?"

Mu Dingxiang was stunned for a moment. In fact, it didn't make any difference whether she recognized her or not. After all, Liu Heng and Ji Yunniang treated her well in this state. What Liu Niannian and Liu Zhuo had? There will be no less, and she just wants to guard Chu Yu and Zhu'er to live a clean life, it doesn't matter if she is Liu Jiaming's daughter or not.

"Why did this come out all of a sudden?"

"Firstly, you are the daughter of the Liu family. Bringing you back to recognize your ancestors is also part of the plan. Second, there are other people who are thinking about it. Your father and I will be together. Thinking about the fact that she is the eldest daughter of the Liu family, and directly obliterating the previous baby change, and saying that you are one year younger, you were born in my womb."

"But at the Mu family...although they are no longer in the limelight, who can guarantee that they will not come to make trouble? And will other people also intervene? What if it becomes self-defeating, and picks out Niannian instead, it will be bad." Mu Dingxiang looked worried.

"The other people don't have to worry. It's been so many years. Who has the energy to talk to us? As for the Mu family, Niannian told me yesterday that Yuan catcher? In the dilapidated temple nearby, I saw Mu Zhou and her eldest son Mu Kongqing, who made a living by begging. It seemed that he was kicked out by the old man Mu. The eldest son of the Mu family had lost both legs, and his face He was completely disfigured with injuries, and it was completely out of control, and the second son of the Mu family, who was said to have almost been caught while robbing people and property, ran up the mountain to become a robber, and the county is about to As for suppressing the bandits, when the time comes? Where can he hide? There is only that wooden old man left. How can he do it alone? Well, he didn’t replace it with his own hands? My son, let me see if he has this? How dare you come to the door? To ask for Niannian, and there is no evidence? No matter how nice he said, no one paid him any attention."

Ji Yunniang thought for a while and said: "If he dares to admit that he changed the child, I will directly report to the official that he abducted and sold my daughter. I want to let him eat enough in prison."

Mu Dingxiang nodded and said, "This is not urgent. I'll ask Chu Yu when she comes back."

"Don't worry, wait until you think it over. Say, if you don't want to, mother won't force you. You're still mother? Good daughter, from the Liu family? Naturally, you will have these things? Then one serving."

Hearing what Ji Yunniang said, Mu Dingxiang didn't really care too much about it. After all, the family has a house and a field, and the 150 taels that Chu Yu brought back were added to the pot. Now the family has saved nearly 300 taels of silver. According to the current The cost is too much for their family of three to spend in their lifetime.

But? Who would think too much, after all, it was given by his biological parents? It's okay to save it for Zhu'er, so he didn't refuse it.

The mother and son chatted for a while, and Ji Yunniang left her and Zhu'er at home for dinner before letting them go back.

Now it is the season of May, and the crops at home are growing well. Last year, every three days, I went to the river to dig silt to add fertilizer. Now the whole piece of land is fertile enough, and the The seedlings are also absorbing nutrients vigorously and trying to grow, and with the golden finger of bamboo, it is obvious that the plants on both sides of the river have a clear contrast after crossing the river. One side is much shorter and knotted. The fruits of the crops are also uneven. On the other hand, in the Chu family’s field, the rows of crops are neat, the size is also large, and the fruits are dense, and there is no imbalance because of the dense growth. , one by one looks chubby? Lovely.

In addition to the staple foods such as rice and corn, Mudingxiang also planted some vegetables this year, such as radishes and eggplants, which are relatively easy to store. Vegetables grow fast, and sometimes they can be eaten within a few months. , Wuwei Shiju's horse-drawn carriage also comes here every three days to deliver goods, and the whole scene is thriving.

Now that the land is fertile enough, there is nothing wrong with it? Weeds and lilacs have been idle for a while, raising chickens and pigs at home, just waiting for the first season of grain harvest.

Now that Chu Yu has something to do, she is busy. Although she misses it in her heart, she doesn't say anything to make her worry. She just hopes that she will finish her work quickly and go home as soon as possible. Don't be too tired outside.

After Chu Yu came back from the Sang tribe, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and he became wary of Bai Lin's behavior. Combining with what they had said about Chu's father's death, he felt that the whole thing was not that simple. , so he decided to go to Jiangzhou, the place where Bailin's accident happened, hoping to find a clue.

It has been seven or eight years now, and there are great difficulties in the investigation. Chu Yu had an accident in Chufeng? He walked along the Miao River for nearly ten days, and his mouth was worn out. He asked many people, but nothing was found. As a result, no one was willing to tell her even when she was asked about the ship involved in the incident.

Just when Chu Yu felt discouraged and was about to leave Jiangzhou to go home, when he was walking around Miaojiang for the last time, he was suddenly stopped by a voice.

Looking back, I saw a young woman with a child in her arms. She was dressed as a fisherman by the Miao River. The little fisherwoman looked at her with surprise.

"you are?"

"Sister Chu, I'm Xiao He, I'm in Ji'an Hall? That."

As soon as Chu Yu heard about Ji'antang, she immediately identified them. These are the first batch of children she sponsored, and the oldest ones are about 20 years old.

"Why? Are you in Jiangzhou——Is this? Your? Child? He's grown up like this!"

"Three years ago, my husband went to our Leshan County. After we met, we got married. After that, I followed him back to Jiangzhou. I didn't expect to meet you here. This is my son. , Ah Wu, call Auntie—”

The child stared at Chu Yu with big eyes, and yelled indistinctly. Seeing her like this, Chu Yu couldn't help but think of his own little dumpling. I don't know what happened to them? The mother and daughter are at home, and I was instantly swept away by a strong feeling of longing.

"The little one is so cute."

"Sister Chu's? How old is the child?" In Xiao He's eyes, Chu Yu was already 27 years old, and logically, he should have married and had children long ago.

"She's three years old."

"That's great, Sister Chu, my house is right here? On the edge of the Miao River, it's only a quarter of an hour's walk away. Come and sit at my house. My husband and father-in-law are both very good people."

Xiao He was grateful for the kindness back then, and she didn't know that she once told her husband about Chu Yu, and now she finally saw her, so naturally she wanted to take her to sit at home.

Chu Yu wanted to refuse, but when she heard that their family lived by the river, a thought flashed in his mind and he asked, "Both your husband and father-in-law are fishermen by the Miao River. "

"That's right, our family lives by the Miao River. My father-in-law fishes all the year round, and my husband grew up by the Miao River since he was a child."

When Chu Yu heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "That's why I'm bothering you."

Even though it was a chance encounter, Chu Yu bought fruit nearby and some meeting gifts before going there.

Xiaohe's family are all ordinary fishermen. They live by the river. The house looks a little old but is neat and tidy. There are many dried seafood and dried fish hanging under the eaves. It seems that life is still passable.

Seeing Xiaohe brought guests here, and hearing that she was a kind person who helped her grow up, and a female soldier who fought on the Great Wall, the whole family was excited and excited, and held a whole fish feast for them. She, Chu Yu, is too kind to be overwhelmed, so she made a living with them.

It wasn't until the end that he explained the purpose of his visit, and asked Xiao He's father-in-law, the old man Jiang, if he had any impression of a man named Chu Feng at the Miaojiang Wharf eight years ago, and how he died.

The old man Jiang's face changed slightly when he heard it, and finally he said in a low voice: "What exactly happened? I don't know what happened. Originally, it is normal for people to drown by the river all the year round. After people die, they forget all about it in a short time. Yes, but when that man surnamed Chu died, more than a dozen households by the riverside all received two taels of silver in private as benefits, and were warned not to tell the public about it, which would be self-defeating , let me never forget about it.”

As soon as Chu Yu heard it, he confirmed what he thought in his heart. The turbulent waves in his heart were surging, and his father's death back then was definitely not an accident.

So he took out a large bank note from his bag and said, "Uncle Jiang, to tell you the truth, the victim named Chu is my father. I happened to be a soldier in the frontier eight years ago, but I didn't want him to be killed at home. I came here after searching for clues, but no one told me the reason for the situation back then when I wandered here for ten days. Your old man pointed me to know that there is a reason behind this, so I ask the old man to point out the way and tell me who was the boatman involved in the incident."

The old man Jiang didn't expect that there was such a reason behind this. He waved his hand to reject his silver and said, "If it's a stranger, let's not say anything about these fishermen. Since it's your father, I will take you to meet the boatman back then, he is my cousin, he should know something."

Seeing that he didn't accept the money, Chu Yu felt uneasy. After thinking about it, he said to him: "Otherwise, please help me hand over the money to your nephew. After all, he was silenced back then, so he must have taken the money. Now if you come to me again, he has no relatives or reasons with me, so he might not tell me the whole story."

Only then did Old Jiang agree to come down, and after dinner, he took Chu Yu to see the owner of the ship who was involved in the incident.

-------------------------------------

When Chu Yu came back by boat from Jiangzhou, it was already No. 11 days after leaving home. Although the things he wanted to investigate were still unclear, at least the doubts in his heart had been confirmed. Now I have finished digging the things that need to be done on this side of Jiangzhou. I have to go home to see my wife and children before I make any further plans.

At the Jiyuan Wharf in Leshan County, a young woman often appears in the past few days, carrying a two or three-year-old child to look at the riverside. The time is not fixed, sometimes it is in the morning, sometimes it is Afternoon? Come.

The Qin family's cargo ships have been docking one after another in the past few days. Rong Yan has a rigorous temperament, and she has to come to follow up on the ground at such a time, so she often sees the mother and daughter.

Sometimes when I come closer, I think this mother-daughter duo is very interesting. The main reason is that her daughter is particularly energetic. With a bellyband in front of her body and a small green skirt tied to her buttocks, she can run for two hours. Chen is not tired.

Fortunately, the little girl is very active but? But? Obedient, as soon as her mother called her, she ran over to get into his arms, looking cute and warm.

When Rong Yan approached, she heard the little girl ask: "Mother, when will Chu Yu come back?"

This sentence can be heard almost every day when a little girl asks her mother.

Her mother looked very young, estimated to be about 89 years old, and she was extremely patient and gentle when responding to the child: "Maybe I will see her in a while."

The little girl seemed dissatisfied with this answer, she frowned and said unhappily, "Chu Yu is so bad, she hasn't been home for so long, she said she would be back in a few days."

I heard the young woman respond again: "I can't? What? Talk about your mother. She has a schedule. Something is delayed. I don't know why? Tired?"

Rong Yan was slightly taken aback when she heard this. The little girl called the young woman mother, but it seemed that what they were waiting for was their mother. This...

Just when she was dazed? At this moment, the little girl couldn't sit still again, and ran towards Rong Yan's direction again, and bumped into her leg without noticing.

Rong Yan lowered her head, thinking that this little girl would cry, but who knew that what she saw was a pair of sparkling eyes, looking up at her.

Immediately afterwards, I saw a young woman walking over quickly, calling Zhu'er, hugging the little girl, and apologizing to her.

For such a cute child, Rong Yan is not a harsh person, she smiled at the little girl and said it's okay, at this moment, there was a voice from behind: " Ma'am, there are too many goods shipped today, I'm afraid the West Warehouse doesn't have enough space for them."

Only then did Rong Yan turn around and walk in the direction of unloading.

Chu Yu came back from the cargo ship bound for Leshan County with Jiangzhou. Before disembarking, he saw several large cargo ships crowded at the pier, and heard the chattering of the staff around him. Said it belonged to the Qin family's cargo ship, and after listening to the gossip of the Qin family for a while, it was said that the Qin family's surname was not Qin's surname Rong, but Mrs. Rong lured wolves into the house and brought a nephew named Qin into the house to recruit him as a son-in-law. Later, not only was the property usurped, but the Rong family was also changed into the Qin family. The son-in-law who came to the door changed suddenly and became Master Qin, and the original eldest lady of the Rong family also became Mrs. Qin.

It's just that I don't know why in recent years, Mr. Qin has lived in seclusion and never been out to do things. The family's business has returned to Mrs. Qin's hands, and now Mrs. Qin is also handling all these shipments.

Chu Yu listened, and his mind automatically made up for the big drama of a rich man's backyard and family house struggle. He couldn't help but cast aside Mr. Qin, a dead man who ate his family's soft food, so he turned to Mrs. Qin as well. I couldn't help but feel a little admiration.

When I got off the boat, I saw a group of people gathered at the pier. A woman surrounded by stars and the moon in the middle looked about 35 years old. She had a beautiful appearance but sharp eyebrows. It's a ruthless trick.

Someone beside him was muttering that that person was Mrs. Qin, who was Miss Rong back then.

At this moment, someone rushed towards Mrs. Qin, panting and said: "Madam, the sixth lady has a headache again, and she is rolling all over the floor calling your name, no one will say it." It doesn't work, go back and have a look."

Seeing that Mrs. Qin's complexion changed, she said to the people: "Hurry up and prepare the horse."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly explained the matter to the steward next to him, and followed the visitor anxiously, and left quickly.

After watching this scene, Chu Yu quickly retracted her gaze. Excessively probing other people's private affairs is not her style. She pulled the burden on her body and walked towards the shore.

But before he took two steps, he heard a clear voice: "Chu Yu, Chu Yu—"

Isn't this Zhu'er's voice? Chu Yu thought he had an auditory hallucination, and must have missed his family too much. Only when those two babies were in a trance.

Who knew? This? The sound was getting closer and closer. She just stopped to watch, and found a green? Man, looking at himself from afar with tenderness.

Chu Yu's emotions were tumbling for a while, and the "missing" of the past ten days came to his heart, and his eyes became hot, and he was about to shed tears.

She quickly took two steps forward, hugged the small ball that was rushing towards her, stepped forward with her long legs, and walked quickly in the direction of Mu Dingxiang.

"Why? I came here and waited here. My return date has not yet been set. Why don't you come and watch every day?" Chu Yu's heart surged, but he couldn't help but want to say something.

"It's okay. I don't have anything at home. I'm busy with work. When I came to see my mother, I stopped by the pier to have a look." After four or five days of guarding, Mu Dingxiang finally found her sweetheart. And metaphor.

The two of them are both women. Chu Yu held Zhu'er in one hand and pulled her into his arms with the other. After more than ten days of separation, he could finally feel the soft and warm embrace again, and the exhaustion all over his body faded instantly. Get it clean.

"We go home."

There are people coming and going on the pier, and Mu Dingxiang doesn't want to let people see the warm scene of her family of three.

This time I went to Jiangzhou mainly by boat, and the place of investigation was also by the river, so Chu Yu didn't ride a horse. Mu Dingxiang learned to ride a horse after following Chu Yu. The first time I rode Xiaobai to the county, so I didn't waste too much time and energy on the road.

Now that Chu Yu came back, they rode back together again.

When I got home, Mu Dingxiang was busy killing chickens and cooking rice, and asked Chu Yu to clean up. We just met? This? People are busy? I feel thinner, and I feel distressed again. I can't help cooking more. Bowl of rice.

During the meal, Chu Yu asked: "How many days have you, mother and daughter, gone to the pier?"

Mu Dingxiang smiled: "That's it? Only two days to go."

But Zhu'er said: "That's not true, I've been gone for five days."

Children can't lie, Chu Yu looked at her meaningfully, Mu Dingxiang rarely smiled shyly.

Mu Dingxiang probably knew that Chu Yu's going out this time had something to do with Chu's father, but what exactly was it? She didn't know, so she couldn't help but asked cautiously, "What's the matter? Are there any eyebrows?"

Hearing this, Chu Yu glanced at Zhu'er, sighed and said, "I'll tell you later."

After eating, Mu Dingxiang took Zhu'er to take a bath, and then sent Xiaotuanzi back to her room before going back to find Chu Yu.

"Are you tired, these days?"

"Tired or not, I just know some truths and feel uncomfortable."

Seeing her heavy face, Mu Dingxiang felt even more distressed.

Chu Yu told her clearly the results of the investigation in Jiangzhou, and Mu Dingxiang was also shocked after hearing it.

"It's too vicious, so there is no way to punish them now?"

"For the time being? I can't find direct evidence. The boatman's argument alone is not very tenable. After all, he only heard the voice and didn't see the scene with his own eyes. Therefore, even if he is promoted, he may not be able to convict the other party. "

"Then you can't? Let them? Get away with it."

"Of course not, but... don't rush this matter. The more anxious you are, the easier it is to alarm them. I'll find Fenghua later and ask her to analyze it for me. Quite a few, should be able to help."

"Well, don't worry, there will be good results..." Mu Dingxiang comforted her by patting her on the back.

At night, the two were sleeping on the bed with the windows open, and the night breeze blew in, bringing the fragrance of flowers. Chu Yu, who had been traveling for more than ten days, finally lay on the refreshing bamboo mat, stretched out his whole body, Squint your eyes comfortably.

Under the candlelight, Mu Dingxiang looked at her like this, smiled softly, reached out to help her gently massage her sore muscles, and watched her fall asleep.

The author has something to say: Xiangxiang saw her second brother-in-law today. ←_←
