Qinghe Pastoral

In the past two days, the second room of the Lin family has been in a vortex of public opinion, and there are even rumors that Liu Yunqiao has been driven crazy. In addition, Liu Yunqiao has not gone out for a long time, while Lin Yuying, who is full of stomach, runs to her mother's house from time to time, and the villagers are even more worried. Believe this is not a rumor.

Seven or eight days later, Liu Yunqiao finally walked around the village again. Although she was silent a lot, her complexion was not bad. She lost weight during this period, but it was brighter than before.

In the afternoon of this day, Lin Mu was learning to weave bamboo baskets with Lin Sheng, Xu Xiuqin hugged Lin Chen in the porch and looked at the father and son, peaceful and quiet.

"Is Uncle Lin Sheng at home?"

Before the person entered the house, the voice came from afar. This is the eldest son of Lin Wei's family, and he seemed anxious when he heard the voice.

"Boss, what's wrong? You're in such a hurry."

"Uncle, you can go to the old house to have a look. The old lady Ma from the Ma family in the east of the city came to the door, saying that the second grandpa belittled her, and the second grandma had a dispute with her, and both of them were injured."

"Ah? How could such a thing happen? I'll go and see."

Lin Sheng didn't care about other things, and followed Lin Weiwei's grandson to the old house.

Lin Muzheng was lamenting that there were so many things to do in the old house, but he remembered that a few days ago, Ji Ruixiu and him went to Liuwanpo to digest food. On the way back, they saw Liu Yunqiao talking with Mrs. Ma across Qinghe. Lin Mu didn't take this matter to heart at all. But when it comes to what happened today, I always feel a little strange.

"What's wrong with the second room? It hasn't stopped for a day."

This old lady Ma lost her husband in the early years, because she was quite pretty, she was involved with several men in the village, and she was beaten by the women in the village a few years ago. We can still make such a fuss today.

"Let them make trouble, isn't the old lady capable? How can I make old lady Ma happy?"

Lin Mu already had a general guess about this matter in his heart. Mrs. Ma is a shameless person. It is estimated that Liu Yunqiao has benefited her and made things difficult for Liu Guilian.Unexpectedly, in just a few days, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the second room became enemies.

"Yeah, let's live our lives. I think Ruixiu is not here these days, and you are going to be moldy. Go and weigh some tofu."

"Okay, the baby is going out now."

Lin Mu took a large bowl and went to the tofu seller Wang Laoer's house. Ji Ruixiu went to Huazhou three days ago. This time they set off from Huaiyang County, Yonganzhou by boat. Counting the time, they just arrived in Huazhou today , It will take time to come back, but after only three days, Lin Mu misses her so much.

"Second Aunt Wang, where are you going?"

"It's Brother Mu. Why are you here? What's going on at your second uncle's house? Let's go and see first."

Second Aunt Wang stepped forward and grabbed Lin Mu. Lin Mu didn't want to join in the fun, so he hurriedly said, "Second Aunt, I'm going to your house to buy tofu. My mother is in a hurry."

"There is no one in my house right now, you go and have a look with me first, and then I will weigh tofu with you."

Lin Mu also had to be convinced by the woman's heart of gossip at the moment. In order to watch the fun, he didn't even do business. Lin Mu thought that he didn't know when Second Aunt Wang would go back, so he followed.

The old house was already full of people, and Lin Mu saw Lin Sheng standing beside Lin Wei without saying a word at a glance. Lin Sheng was a boring gourd outside, and after so many years, he didn't have such deep feelings for the second room. , let alone speak.

"Well, you Lin Cai, dare to do what you are condemned by God. When you were young, dare you say that you didn't admire me?"

The old lady Ma was a few years younger than Liu Guilian, and she was a famous beauty in Qinghe Village when she was young. Even though she was over fifty, she was no worse than the women in the village in their forties.

"Bah, you bitch, you dare to come to my house to act wildly, are you crazy about men?"

Liu Guilian's hair was disheveled, and Mrs. Ma was not much better, presumably the two had already fought a lot.

"Liu Guilian, ask Lin Cai if he admired me back then. If I had allowed him back then, what would happen to you today, huh? In the few days after my husband died, he came to ask me how I was. Didn't he just treat me? It’s hard to give up. Today, I’ve caught the opportunity, and I started to touch me when I came up, what’s the matter, Lin Xue has just raised a second room, do you, Lin Cai, want to follow suit?”

Lin Cai was originally a man of few words, and apart from the fact that he wanted to tarnish Mrs. Ma today, everything else was true.When he was young, Mrs. Ma had a slender figure and a good face. She was indeed his sweetheart, and he had made it clear, but Mrs. Ma didn't like him.When her husband died, Mrs. Ma looked even more fragile, and people said that what she couldn't get and what she lost was more touching. At that time, Lin felt a little compassion and went to comfort her.But so many years have passed, all the children have married, and the granddaughter is married, how could he have such thoughts?

"Lin Cai, are you dumb? Talk."

Lin Cai's silence made Mrs. Ma even more arrogant, but Liu Guilian felt more and more uncertain. Could it be that what Mrs. Ma said was true, and Lin Cai's old love for her has been unforgettable for so many years?

"Old man, say something."

"If you ask me to say something, if I say I didn't do it, I didn't do it."

"Counsel, Mrs. Zhang, what do you say you saw?"

Granny Ma's pungentness is comparable to that of Liu Guilian, and she is a loner, so she has no scruples.

"I, I was cutting pigweed in the corn field, but I heard a dispute outside, so I came out to have a look, and saw Lin Cai holding Ma Qin'er, and Ma Qin'er seemed to be slapping Lin Cai. I couldn't see and coughed."

It was just Liu Guilian and Madam Ma who were arguing just now, but now when Mrs. Zhang said something, the onlookers began to discuss it. Lin Wei looked ugly and glared at Lin Cai. Lin Cai was clearly wronged, but he couldn't explain it.

He was very worried about Lin Xue's remarriage, so he wanted to go to the field to look at the crops. Unexpectedly, he ran into Ma Qin'er not long after he left the village. Ma Qin'er seemed to be slipped, so Lin thought about it. The old bone was broken, and I was afraid it would be bad if I fell down, so I helped him up, but I didn't know that things would turn out like this.

"Hey, we talked about Lin Xue marrying the second wife earlier, so we followed my father's temperament, but I don't know if Uncle Lin Cai is going to marry the second wife too?"

The woman who spoke had a good relationship with Liu Yunqiao, so it was natural that Liu Yunqiao had suffered such a big grievance, how could she miss such an opportunity to add insult to injury.

Lin Mu caught a glimpse of the smile on the corner of Liu Yunqiao's mouth, which confirmed his guess.She suffered a lot because of Lin Xue's marriage to the second wife. How could she not hate her filial mother-in-law for many years who turned against her?It's a good thing she can come up with such a trick to treat the person in the same way.

"Welcome me in? Unless Liu Guilian is taken back first, I will make trouble every day. If you don't help me, I will go to the county to ring the big bell. Don't think that I am afraid of having a master in your family."

"You bitch, I'll kill you."

Liu Guilian was obviously panicked, she rushed over and pulled Madam Ma's hair, and Madam Ma stepped on Liu Guilian's foot.

"They're all crazy, pull them away quickly."

Lin Wei had an abnormal headache. Since last year, Lin Cai's family seemed to be under a curse, and troubles followed one after another.Lin Zian is still in Beijing, if these things have affected his reputation, it must be worth the loss?

The children and grandchildren of Lin Wei's family managed to pull them away, and Liu Guilian knelt down on the ground and cried out.At this time, Lin Xue and Zhou Qihuan, who got the news, returned home in a carriage.

"Mother, what do you look like sitting on the ground, Yun Qiao, you haven't helped Mother up yet."

Liu Yunqiao gave Lin Xue a cold look, but didn't move. Lin Xue couldn't let go of his anger, so he had to help him up by himself.

"Son, my mother has been run over and has no place to stand, woo woo woo..."

"What the hell happened?"

In front of his son, Lin Cai repeated the matter verbatim, but before Lin Xue could speak, Mrs. Ma called out again.

"Lin Xue, you just came back just in time. Your father intends to stain my innocence, but I'm not skinless. I'm just messing around outside. Maybe your father has an unforgettable old relationship with me. Seeing that you are married to the second wife, he also wants to welcome me in. If your Lin family doesn't give me an explanation today, I'll go to the county to ring the bell, and if it doesn't work out, I'll crash my head in front of your house."

Lin Xue and Zhou Qihuan's faces were a bit ugly because of Mrs. Ma's accusations and scolding Huai. Liu Yunqiao glanced at Zhou Qihuan, his eyes were full of jealousy and hatred, and quickly lowered his head, hiding all emotions.

Lin Mu really doesn't know how crazy a person can go when he is on the verge of collapse.But the flash of Liu Yunqiao's eyes just now gave him a chill in his heart, and he was a little worried that the second room would ruin Lin Zian if the quarrel continued like this.

"Ma Qin'er, don't spitting blood, I, Lin Cai, am not afraid of the shadow, if I haven't done it, I haven't done it."

Lin Cai was also flustered, and even called out Mrs. Ma's full name, which showed that he was angry.

"My father defiled you? The sky is bright and the sun is shining? Aunt Ma, you must speak with evidence. You are well-dressed. My father only gave you a hand. Are you going to blackmail me? Over the years, your reputation in the village is not as high as mine. Tell me, you said my father defiled you, and I said that you failed to seduce and framed you. Aunt Wang, did you see my father defile Aunt Ma with your own eyes? Did she call out for help?"

The old lady Wang was shocked by Lin Xue's momentum, and stammered a little: "Some, some are far away, I can't see clearly, I only see the two of them hugging each other."

"That's right. My father helped Aunt Ma who was about to fall. Some physical contact is inevitable. My Lin family is not afraid of Aunt Ma slandering my father like this, not to mention suing the county, even going to Fucheng."

Lin Xue was eloquent, and every sentence was reasonable, how much some elderly women hated Ma Qin'er, Lin Xue's words could attract so much approval.

Mrs. Ma glanced at Liu Yunqiao, who was bowing her head, and thought for a moment: "The shopkeeper in the county opened his mouth so sharply, no wonder he was able to coax the daughter of the boss. My wife is weak, but this is absolutely impossible. Give up easily."

After saying this, Mrs. Ma left angrily, and the villagers watching the fun couldn't stay any longer, and they all scattered away.

Lin Mu saw that Second Aunt Wang had also left, and remembered his purpose of going out, so he hurriedly followed. Along the way, the villagers were still talking about today's events with great interest.

Tens of thousands of mouths, ten thousand kinds of rhetoric, right and wrong are all one mouth, after all, it is someone else's business, watching the excitement is not too big a deal.
