A knife in love

Chapter 1305

The three talked and talked, and after walking for tens of feet, they turned to an alley on the west side.Li Qiufeng saw that the houses in the village were seldom lit up, and the street was empty, so he felt a little strange, and said to Wang Xiaoyu, "Miss Wang, why do the people in the village seldom light up the lamps? There are few people seen on the street at night?"

Wang Xiaoyu said: "There are more than [-] households in our Zhuangzi, with a population of more than [-] people, and about [-] strong men. A few years ago, there were some fields outside the Zhuangzi for the people in the village to cultivate. Everyone worked at sunrise and worked at sunset. It is not as deserted as it is now. Later, Laoweng Mountain was not peaceful, and the field was abandoned. The people in the village had no land to grow, and most of them could only stay in the village to do some small work. These days, because of the busy To build a temple on Motian Ridge, the Zhuang Ding in the village was divided into several groups. One group went to other places to buy wood, bricks and tiles, and the other group followed Uncle Wang to work on the top of the mountain. Everyone was exhausted and exhausted, so it was not dark yet. , and often fell asleep. The people are used to thrift, and they don’t even want to use more lamp oil and candles. Therefore, after dark, if there is no need, very few people will light lamps and boil oil.”

When the three of them were talking, they had already turned into the alley.The houses in Wangjiazhuang are almost exactly the same, so even though they walked more than a hundred steps, they seemed to be spinning in circles.Murong Danyan smiled and said: "Sister Xiaoyu, the houses in Guizhuang are all exactly the same, if outsiders enter the village at first, I'm afraid they will get lost."

Wang Xiaoyu said: "When my father built this village, he didn't have much money in hand. Therefore, when building the house, try to save money. The house is built to be the same, and the bricks and tiles can save a lot of money. It was later discovered that there is another advantage of building houses in this way, that is, almost every part of the village is exactly the same. If a thief who does not know the details enters the village to do bad things, you have to confuse yourself. A few years ago, someone went to the village My intentions were wrong, and I lost my way after entering. I spent a whole night going around, but I couldn’t get out of Zhuangzi. When the sun was bright on the second day, I was caught by the patrolling Zhuang Ding. Since then, I When Dad and Uncle Wang built a new house, they also built it according to the old house."

Before Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, he could only hear a commotion not far ahead.Wang Xiaoyu lowered his voice and said: "Did you hear that? The sound was made by those mud legs. After they came to the village, they either wanted to eat or drink, made noise, and even played dice for money. If we The villagers in Wangjiazhuang have long been driven out of the village by Uncle Wang."

The three of them walked forward for dozens of steps, and there were two lanterns hanging at the gate of a house on the left, and lights came out of the windows, illuminating the front of the gate.The noisy sound came from this courtyard.I saw four Zhuang Ding from Wangjiazhuang standing at the door, talking quietly together.Seeing the three people approaching, one of them, Zhuang Ding, shouted loudly: "Who is it, tell me your name!"

Wang Xiaoyu walked a few steps quickly, and when he reached the four of them, he lowered his voice and said, "It's me!"

The four Zhuang Ding were surprised when they saw a handsome boy approaching by the light of the lantern.All four of them felt that this little boy looked very familiar, but they couldn't recognize who he was.Just hearing the little boy talking, he immediately recognized Wang Xiaoyu's voice.The four Zhuang Ding were shocked, and looked carefully again, only then did they realize that the little boy in front of him was the eldest lady.The four hurriedly bowed and saluted, all of them were a little surprised.

Wang Xiaoyu frowned when he heard the noise coming from the yard, and said in a low voice, "Aren't these mud legs making trouble?"

A Zhuang Ding said with a smile on his face: "I want to teach the eldest lady that these bastards originally wanted to make trouble, but in the evening, Butler Wang came, first reprimanded these bastards, and then promised to add a meat dish to them." , these mud legs are honest. After eating and drinking, although they are still very noisy, they did not mess with us. Sigh, I don’t know when the temple will start to be built. After a few more days, these people still don’t know what to do. What kind of moths are there?"

When Zhuang Ding said this, he paused for a while, and then asked cautiously: "Miss, you, why are you dressed like this..."

Wang Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows, glanced at him, and said, "Why, can't I be dressed like this?"

That Zhuang Ding's heart trembled when he heard Wang Xiaoyu's bad tone.He knew that Miss Wang had always said one thing in Zhuangzi, and no one dared to provoke her.In the past two days, I don't know what method the eldest lady used to drive out the brothers and sisters of the Wu family who were domineering in the Zhuangzi.Moreover, many people secretly rumored that after the brothers and sisters of the Wu family were driven out of the village, the eldest lady sent people to ambush outside the village, killed the brothers and sisters of the Wu family, and buried their bodies in the wilderness.Although it is not known whether this matter is true or not, but the Wu brothers and sisters did not appear in the past two days.Everyone was even more afraid of Wang Xiaoyu, for fear that if she was unhappy, disaster would happen to him.Seeing Wang Xiaoyu's appearance at this moment, this Zhuang Ding was startled and frightened, and said in a trembling voice: "No, no, it's a small, small person talking nonsense, Miss, Miss, don't be angry..."

When Zhuang Ding said this, he felt his knees go limp, and he knelt down to the ground with a "plop".Seeing him like this, Wang Xiaoyu felt contemptuous in her heart, curled her lips and said, "I won't do anything to you, but you are so scared, you are really a pustule. Get up quickly, don't embarrass yourself in front of us. "

Although the Zhuang Ding was not polite when he heard Wang Xiaoyu's words, he didn't mean to punish him, so he put his heart back in his stomach and struggled to get up.The other three Zhuang Ding stood by with their hands down, not even daring to speak out.

Wang Xiaoyu hummed, and said, "Open the door, I'll go in and have a look."

That Zhuang Ding was startled, and said in a trembling voice: "These mud-legged people are rough people, why should Miss take care of them? Just let us do something."

Wang Xiaoyu sneered and said, "Leave it to you? Have you done it? Stop talking nonsense and open the door."

The four Zhuang Ding looked at each other in blank dismay. Although they were worried that Wang Xiaoyu would conflict with Zhuang Ding of Majiazhuang after entering the hospital, they did not dare to disobey her orders.Zhuang Ding, who was so frightened by Wang Xiaoyu that he knelt on the ground, thought to himself, the eldest lady has always been one and the same.If the owner and steward Wang blame us in the future, as long as we say that the eldest lady forced us to open the door, the owner and steward Wang will not punish us if we think about it.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Ding hurriedly turned around and pulled out the latch on the door, bowed and said, "Miss, please come in."

Wang Xiaoyu walked to the door, turned to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan and said, "Come in with me, both of you." After she finished speaking, she looked at the other four Zhuang Ding, and said, "The four of you Just stay outside the door, you don’t have to go into the courtyard.”

The four Zhuang Ding agreed, took two steps back, and stood on the left and right sides of the gate, pretending not to look sideways.Wang Xiaoyu stepped over the threshold and walked into the courtyard, Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan followed her and also walked in.This courtyard is not big, it is a three-in-one courtyard.At this time, there were many figures on the paper windows of the three rooms, and there was a lot of people's voices, and there was also the jingling sound of the dice hitting the bowl.

Wang Xiaoyu lowered his voice and said to Li Qiufeng: "That kid lives in the room on the left side. When I went to inspect here in the morning, other people were gambling and making noise, but he sat in the corner without saying a word and fell asleep."

When Murong Danyan saw Wang Xiaoyu mentioning that boy, his voice was filled with surprise, and he wanted to take the opportunity to squeeze Wang Xiaoyu with a few words.Just thinking about it, Wang Xiaoyu was just at the beginning of his love affair, so it's not unusual for him to have a good impression of that young man.If I make fun of her about this, I'm afraid that Wang Xiaoyu will be thin-skinned and never dare to talk to that boy again, maybe he will ruin a marriage.Only then did he refrain from speaking, but there was a faint smile in his eyes.

Li Qiufeng nodded, and quietly walked out of the window of the left side room, dipped his right index finger in his mouth, and then lightly pressed it on the window paper.Moments later, a small hole appeared in the window paper.Li Qiufeng moved his eyes to the small hole and carefully watched the situation inside the house.

I saw several candles lit in the room.Under the candlelight, you can see 30 to [-] people sitting or standing in the room.These people were divided into several groups, and they were throwing dice to gamble, making bursts of laughing and cursing from time to time.Several people were lying in straw on the ground and appeared to be sleeping.It's just that in the corner on the left side of the room, the young man was sitting with his back leaning against the wall, hugging his knees.I saw that his eyes seemed to be open, and he didn't seem to care about the surrounding situation.
