Nongmen Shenjue

Wu Xialai is just an ordinary person. Although his family is poor, he was raised by his parents when he was a child, and an older brother when he grew up. He is used to being dependent and tired of doing anything.But in the past, I had to find something to do. Since I got addicted to gambling, not only did I not make money, but I also tried to deduct money from my mother.

He was worried about what money the Wu family could have, when he bumped into a girl on the street that day.At that time, he just thought that the little girl was quite handsome, so he took a second look, but the other party recognized him. It turned out to be the little girl from the Li family who rented a house with their family before.

The Li family was poorer than their Wu family, and their parents died early. There was only a widowed old woman with a little granddaughter. Later, when life was difficult, she sold the little granddaughter to a rich family to be a maid. Not long after, the old woman died. It was done with the help of their Wu family.The thin and timid little girl in my impression grew up in a blink of an eye, she was wearing good things, her skin was white and thin, and she ate well just by looking at it.

He has also been obsessed with thinking about money recently, and when he saw Tong'er, he became a bit thoughtful.

After all, she was a maidservant of a rich family, so she must not be reckless, so he took her home, talked about the old affairs of the two families, and repeatedly mentioned his family's favor to their mother-in-law and grandson.He gradually became familiar with Tong'er, and then he started to coax Tong'er, only saying to use the money to do some small business, don't tell others, so as not to be ridiculed if it doesn't work.

Tong'er was foolish and believed it.

After that, every time he found an excuse to ask for money, Tong Er would give it.

Wuxia wiped his tears, as if very sad: "It's all the fault of that bastard, Big Gouzi! That day I was talking to Tong'er on the corner of the street, Big Gouzi saw it, and not only molested Tonger, but also told me about my gambling. When Tonger heard about gambling, she kept asking me. I was annoyed by the questioning, so I pushed her. Who knew that she was so unlucky, she knocked her head on the wall brick. At that time, her head was full of blood, and she didn't move. Yes. I, I was also frightened, so I found a car, stuffed her in a big wooden barrel, and transported her out of the city."

"Where did you leave the man?"

"Just outside the city in the woods, not far in, there is a big pit covered with weeds and thorns. I originally wanted to dig a pit to bury her, but I had nothing at hand, so I had no choice but to throw her in there. "Don't look at Wu Xialai's confession to murder, but he has been showing his innocence inside and outside the words.

Wei Yangyu couldn't hear the key points, but instinctively felt that Wu Xialai's words sounded very uncomfortable.

"Shirk responsibility! Sophistry!" After all, Chen Shiliu had experienced a lot, so he quickly grasped the key point and kicked Wu Xialai over.

Wei Yangyu nodded again and again: "If you say you, cheat money, cheat money, such a good girl, you are willing to do it."

Of course, in fact, Wei Yangyu didn't understand Tong'er's thoughts even more. Where could this Wu Xia come from?How could you be so foolishly deceived?Don't look at Tong'er as just a maid, but maids from rich families are more popular than girls from ordinary families. If Tong'er does her best and survives to the position of big maid, it will not be difficult to hire a shopkeeper outside in the future.What does the Wu family have? They are impoverished. This Wu Xialai looks ordinary and does not live up to expectations.

"Go and inform the Zhong family."

Not long after, Zhong Jun arrived with the housekeeper.

"Have you found someone?" Zhong Jun was skeptical, after all, these people had just left Zhong's house not long ago.

Chen Shiliu snorted softly, raised his brows and said triumphantly: "Looking for someone is a trivial matter. Didn't that Xiaoyue say that Tong'er always brings some food to visit his old neighbors whenever he goes out, and he will understand when he finds the family. Yes. Here, this person is the one who lied to Tong Er and then killed her."

The master and servant of the Zhong family were all in shock. The matter was indeed not that big, but the speed was indeed too fast, like a dream.

Wei Yangyu was also suffocating with excitement: "Just now he told you the place where the body was dumped, and asked you to come and identify the body."

"I'm going to identify the corpse?" Zhong Jun's face changed: "I, I don't know what that little maid looks like."

The butler was much calmer: "Master, let me go."

"...I'll go too." Seeing Chen Shiliu's naked contempt, Zhong Jun refused to lose his composure and insisted on going.

Several people got into the car, grabbed Wu Xialai, went out of the city and went straight to the grove.

The group of people made their own mental preparations on the way. Although it is cold now, the person has been dead for several days, and the body is thrown in the woods. The body will definitely not look good.Unexpectedly, when they got to the place, they pushed aside the weeds, but they didn't see anything.

"Where's the corpse?" Everyone was taken aback, including Wu Xialai.

Mu Qingyan's eyes flickered a few times, and he asked, "You pushed the person down, but did you breathe out? Is the person really dead?"

Wu Xialai was in a trance, and it took a while to come back to it: "Tong'er is not dead? She is not dead! I didn't kill anyone!"

It is estimated that Tong'er was just fainting at that time, and Wu Xialai was afraid and nervous, so he didn't dare to check carefully. Seeing so much blood, he mistakenly thought that the person was dead.If Tong'er really didn't die, it could be said that she was very lucky. After all, she was seriously injured and was abandoned in the forest. She was so lucky that she almost died a second time.

"Look for the nearby village first and ask Lizheng. If there is no whereabouts, it will be troublesome." Even if ordinary people save Tong'er, they will know that something has happened by looking at her injuries. They have to report to Lizheng first, and Lizheng will return. Go to the police.

The Zhong family had greeted the county government. If the county government really received the news, it would definitely tell the Zhong family, at least to determine whether the person was the servant girl of the Zhong family.

Since the county government doesn't know, then no one must report to the officials. Is it negligence or intentional?

When Mu Qingyan came out of the forest, his eyes sparkled.In his line of sight, what he saw was Tong'er waking up, crawling out of the big pit, crying for help weakly, and wriggling outwards.As the sky was getting darker, a big man in common clothes came out of the forest with an ax in his hand and a large bundle of dry firewood. He found Tong'er, picked him up, and headed towards a distant village.

He couldn't help thinking of a very bad result: the other party didn't report to the police, maybe Tong'er was not rescued, and the other party was afraid of getting involved.

Villagers in the surrounding villages don't have to be manned, they have to be familiar with the situation.For this reason, the steward of Zhong's residence went to the county government office again to explain the matter, and the chief arrester didn't dare to ignore it, so he brought a team of people over.

Mu Qingyan didn't follow to find anyone, but just sat in the carriage and waited for news.

Chen Shiliu went on his behalf, and Wei Yangyu was more excited than before, constantly guessing whether there would be another change in the future.Zhong Jun frowned from time to time, just couldn't figure out how things were so easy?Their family sent a lot of people before, and I really didn't think of asking Tong'er's old neighbors. After all, they haven't seen each other for many years, and who knows how they started to move again. heart.

After most of the day passed, I searched for two villages, but couldn't find them.

The sky was getting dark, and the smoke was rising from every house.

Chen Shiliu suddenly looked in one direction and asked, "There are people living there?"

He was referring to the end of the village, a few acres of land away from the village, a few trees shaded by a small yellow mud courtyard.That family had a dog, and they could hear the dog barking from a distance, and there was smoke rising from the kitchen, obviously they were also cooking dinner.

Li Zheng hurriedly said: "Yes, I almost forgot. There is only one person left in their family, a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, named Liu Qiang. He found a job in the city by himself, and only came back every once in a while."

"Go and see."

As soon as the crowd came, the yellow dog in the courtyard kept barking, and the people in the kitchen heard the movement and came out.Liu Qiang was tall and strong, with an upright face, and although his clothes were old, they were clean.Seeing so many people appear, he was stunned, and looked at Lizheng suspiciously.

"Uncle Li Zheng, what's the matter?"

There was still the sound of stir frying with shovels in the kitchen, obviously there were still people inside.

Li Zheng's expression didn't change, but his tone was still kind: "Qiang Zi, is there anyone else in your family?"

Liu Qiang nodded, but did not explain.

Suddenly the atmosphere was a little awkward.

The housekeeper of Zhong's Mansion went directly to the door of the kitchen, looked inside, and saw a pretty little girl cooking, but because someone came outside, she seemed distracted, looked out from time to time, and suddenly met the housekeeper's eyes.

The housekeeper may not have much impression of Tong'er, but can Tong'er not know the housekeeper?

The spatula slipped and clanged, and Tong'er was terrified.

This performance immediately confirmed her identity.

The housekeeper's expression turned pale immediately. He thought that something happened to her, but it turned out... You know, because of her disappearance, the wife at home couldn't sleep or eat. Master.But fortunately, this little girl was not tied hands and feet, not to mention going back, she was still living safely.

After all, Tong'er is the servant girl of the Zhong family, the housekeeper negotiated with the Yacha, and the Yacha and others all retreated outside the courtyard.

In the yard, Zhong Jun had a serious and handsome face, and he swept Liu Qiang and Tong'er viciously.Chen Shiliu and Wei Yangyu stood aside, keeping silent, but their eyes flickered, obviously they were watching a play.

Liu Qiang scratched his head and opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't.

Tong'er was called out by the housekeeper, she shrank and didn't dare to approach, she just pressed against the wall and couldn't stop crying.She had suffered a head injury before, lost a lot of blood, and her face was still pale. While crying, she felt dizzy and nauseous.This is all because the head injury has not healed well.

Zhong Jun only felt particularly ashamed, and his attitude was naturally very bad: "Speak! What's going on!"

Tong'er wept for a while, and finally made a sound.

At first, just like what Wu Xia said, when I left the house once, I saw Wu Xialai on the street.When she entered Zhong's house, she remembered everything. From seven or eight years old to 13 years old, her appearance changed a lot, but Wu Xialai was five or six years older than her, and her appearance did not change much.Seeing Wu Xia came to see her, she thought that the other party recognized her, so she tried to call "Brother Xia Lai".

Tong'er had no parents since she was a child, and lived with her grandma. Later, her grandma couldn't support her and sold her into the Zhong family.Although she has food and clothing, she is not happy, especially when she hears other maids talking about her parents and brothers, she is especially envious.She also wants to have her parents nagging her, and her younger siblings to act like a baby, so she can save money to buy things for her parents and brothers, and gather with her family every month to discuss future plans.

Since arriving at Wu's house, it seems that the memories of the past have come back.

Even if they are not a family, they live together and have a good relationship.The Wu family's mother-in-law, elder brother and sister-in-law are all kind to her. She thinks of her childhood and feels that she has something to rely on.In the beginning, she only regarded Wu Xialai as her elder brother, but Wu Xialai always coaxed her with nice words and gave her little things from time to time, like the closest person in the world.She likes this feeling very much, everything goes smoothly without knowing it, and she gives money when the other party asks for it.

Until the matter failed, Wu Xialai accidentally pushed her down.

Liu Qiang went to the mountains to collect firewood that day and rescued her.

"Why don't you go back?" Zhong Jun asked.

Tong'er opened her mouth, tears streaming down her face: "I, I have no face to go back..."

Does Tonger hate Wu Xialai? She definitely hates it, but she is actually more surprised. This kind of hatred is also a ignorant hatred. At least she feels that she would rather not pursue Wu Xialai than to be ashamed.At that time, I didn’t think I was caught in the trap, but now I think about being cheated, I feel incredible, and I was almost killed.She felt ashamed and scared at the same time, and in the end she simply comforted herself that she was just a little girl, and no one would care about her after a while, so she might as well stay at Liu Qiang's house.

As for the identity matter, whether it will bring hidden dangers or something, she didn't think about it at all.

This reason may seem ridiculous, but when you think about it carefully, it is also common sense.

Even Chen Shiliu and the others, if they did something embarrassing, their first reaction would be to hide first.

Liu Qiang is kind-hearted, and he was going to send Tong'er home, but when he asked her where her home was, Tong'er cried.To say hello to Lizheng, Tong'er knelt and begged.Liu Qiang thought it was because her family treated her badly, and he didn't insist because he was afraid of pushing her back to the pit of fire.

Chen Shiliu coughed twice: "Master Zhong, the man has been found, Chenghui 80 taels!"

The housekeeper had already prepared, and handed over a blue purse with heavy silver ingots inside: "Thank you, Mr. Chen Liu."

"You have to thank Brother Mu. That's enough, the matter is over, let's leave." The rest is the Zhong family's business, so Chen Shiliu couldn't help but leave with Wei Yangyu.

"Chen Xiaoliu, how do you think Mr. Mu found someone? How could he find someone so accurately?" Even though Wei Yangyu followed him from beginning to end, he still found it amazing.

"If you know, you can also be a god."

Chen Shiliu gave the money bag to Mu Qingyan, and Mu Qingyan gave him [-]% of it.

Chen Shiliu took the money, saw Wei Yangyu beside him, smiled wickedly, picked up a broken piece of money and threw it to him: "Here, hard work!"

"Hello! Chen Shiliu!"

Mu Qingyan ignored the bickering between the two, and only urged: "Get in the car and go back to the city."

Early the next morning, Mu Qingyan greeted Chen Shiliu and left the capital with Wen Jixue.

As for Fu Jingchun's banquet, he didn't plan to attend, Chen Shiliu was enough.

On the day of the banquet, Fu Jingchun arranged the food and drinks in the garden, and the people who came were all from the spring day.Zhong Jun also arrived.

Chen Shiliu first met Fu Jingchun alone, saying that Mu Qingyan had left Beijing earlier.

Fu Jingchun was a little surprised, and felt very sorry: "Is that so? I fell in love with him the first time I saw him. I planned to... that's all. I just don't know when we can see each other next time."

Chen Shiliu couldn't figure out whether he was sincere or polite, so he smiled and said, "There is always a chance."

Before the banquet started, everyone began to ask about the girl of the Zhong family.There are also rumors outside, but they are all just a few words, which can't be compared with Zhong Jun's personal explanation.Zhong Jun knew that he couldn't hide this matter, so he just said it.

Then someone asked him: "That little girl named Tong'er, how will your family deal with it?"

Zhong Jun smiled and said: "She's just a little girl. She was cheated and suffered enough. I hope she will grow wiser after suffering. This is a family matter. I don't care about it. My mother is soft-hearted. I felt sorry for her, so I didn't want her worth, and returned her deed. That Liu Qiang was kind to her, and she was willing, so let them be a husband and wife, which is also a good deed."

"A blessing in disguise, it's finally a good result." Everyone discussed a few words, and then it was over.

It's just a little maid, who really cares, it's just to listen to the story.
