Chapter 421

The water bandits have been eyeing Lu Hehua's two daughters for a long time, grabbed them and hugged them into their arms, laughing: "Little beauty, I will take you ashore to eat delicious and spicy food, you must be obedient. Come on, Kiss one."

"Ah, let us go!" Lu Hehua's two daughters were terrified, they wanted to struggle but they couldn't.

Lian Zhi and another pretty maid were also held in the arms of the two water bandits, and kept screaming in fright.

Aunt Lu looked at them, she was exceptionally calm, and asked: "Are you the old man?"

The fifth master smiled and said, "Yo, you're not stupid, you can guess our identities."

"The old thing actually invited water bandits to deal with me. It seems that he hates me." Aunt Lu sneered: "The old thing was killed by me and lost such a big man in the county. I deserve it." !"

Seeing that Aunt Lu was still talking to the water bandits, Lu Hehua immediately shouted: "Meihua, Meihua, for the sake of seeing our sisters, go honestly with these old men and don't implicate us."

Then he said to the group of water bandits: "Masters, there is an injustice and a debtor. She is Zou Xiancheng's aunt. The person you are looking for is her. Take her away, take her away quickly."

Don't catch her, she doesn't want to die yet.

Aunt Lu looked at Lu Hehua and said with a smile: "Second Sister, I have enjoyed so many years of blessings thanks to my sister. Now that my sister is suffering, your whole family should suffer together."

Aunt Lu knew that she was about to die, so she would pull a back if she could, and she didn't care about sisters' affection.

Aunt Lu looked at Lu Hehua's two daughters and said: "My two nieces are still young girls. They have been raised by the Lu family and my money since they were born. They are more delicate than the rich ladies. You are blessed today! .”

After hearing this, Lu Hehua's two daughters turned pale with fright. They looked at Aunt Lu and sobbed, "Third, third aunt, why are you trying to harm us?"

"Oh, harming you? You grew up eating the money I gave you, and now you are just repaying your favor." Aunt Lu sat like a dead person, she didn't feel sorry for these two nieces at all.

"Fifth Master, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, take them away first." An old man hiding behind the water bandits said.

After hearing the words, Aunt Lu felt that the voice sounded familiar. She immediately looked at the old man and saw that he was wearing a bamboo hat, barefoot, and dripping water, she couldn't help frowning: "Who are you? Are we seen?"

The old man chuckled, and looked up at Aunt Lu: "Aunt Lu has good eyesight, she only saw the old man twice, and she remembered the old man's voice."

Aunt Lu looked at the old man and said in shock, "You, you are the lame six who deliver water chestnuts!"

The prime minister of Zou County loves water chestnuts. Every year when the water chestnuts are produced, people will send water chestnuts to the house. Cripple Six is ​​one of the farmers who send water chestnuts to the Zou family.

However, Cripple Six is ​​different from other farmers who deliver chestnuts, Zou Xiancheng will occasionally meet him in person.

Aunt Lu had seen the cripple six or two times when she was favored. At that time, she was still puzzled, and asked Zou Xiancheng, there are several companies that deliver water and chestnuts, why only see the cripple six?

Zou Xiancheng said that the water chestnuts grown by the lame six family are delicious and worth seeing.

Now it seems that sending water chestnuts is just a cover, and this cripple six should be the one who specially delivers letters to the water bandits for Zou Xiancheng.

"You, you were not invited by the old man... The old man is with you! He, he dared to collude with water bandits." Aunt Lu was so scared that her face turned pale: "In case the old man's affairs are known by the government , What will my Brother Zhen and Sister Wan do? This plague-stricken old thing wants to kill Brother Zhen and Sister Wan."

Cripple Six said disdainfully: "It's been so many years. If the government had the ability, they would have discovered it long ago."

After finishing speaking, he laughed again, and said to Aunt Lu: "Aunt Lu, don't worry about Fifth Miss. Old Zou believes that she is a bastard, and has already betrothed her to the eldest son of Landlord Lu's family in Luchang County. This is what Old Zou specially gave to Fifth Miss. The marriage chosen by the young lady, in a short time, the fifth young lady will be able to marry into the Lu family and enjoy the blessings."

"What did you say?!" Aunt Lu almost fainted: "The old man betrothed Sister Wan to the fool of the Lu family, is he crazy!"

Aunt Lu knew about the Lu family, and Xiancheng Zou told her more than once that Landlord Lu was a terrible person.At that time, she had laughed at the Lu family, saying that the stupid son of the Lu family would definitely not be able to marry a wife.

Unexpectedly, her sister Wan was betrothed by the old man to that fool.

Aunt Lu was crying bitterly, and she was fainted by the water bandits before she cried for a long time. She carried her off the big boat, threw her into a small boat, brought her to the shore, and came to a mountain near the water.

There is a stockade in the mountain, which is the lair of the water bandits. Aunt Lu and the female family members of the Lu family were tortured after being brought here.

Aunt Lu was the worst. Not only did she serve the water bandits in the village, she was also tortured by Ling Chi, which shows how much Zou Xiancheng hated her.

……

The people in Liuye Lane didn't find out that the female family members of the Lu family were missing until the next day. They boarded the boat to ask, but the boss of the boat said that Aunt Lu and the others didn't want to be slaves, so they jumped into the water and escaped.

After the boat boss finished speaking, he went ashore with Guan Ya's people to report to the officials.

It often happens that people who are used as official slaves dive into the water. The government just sent people to search randomly for a long time, and then they didn't care about it.

The people in Liuye Lane didn't believe that the female family members of the Lu family escaped by diving into the water, so they searched for five days on the Huai River. On the afternoon of the fifth day, they finally found a few floating corpses on the Huai River, which appeared to be the female family members of the Lu family.

They didn't die for a long time, and they should have been thrown into the Huai River not long after their death, and floated along the current.

One of the female corpses was particularly terrifying. Most of the flesh had been sliced ​​off, leaving only a skeleton with pieces of meat hanging on it.But everyone in Liuye Lane knows that this should be Aunt Lu.

Seeing Aunt Lu's body, the people in Liuye Lane almost vomited. They didn't dare to wait any longer. They set off for Tianfu County overnight and told Zou Yuzhen about it.

When Zou Yuzhen heard the news of Aunt Lu's tragic death, he breathed a sigh of relief... Aunt Lu finally died, and she died so badly, the old man should be relieved, he is safe.

Cripple Six came back two days earlier than the people in Liuye Lane. As soon as he came back, he brought water and chestnuts to the Zou family, and told County Cheng Zou about Aunt Lu and the female family members of the Lu family.

After Zou Xiancheng learned of Aunt Lu's fate, his whole body felt better, and his illnesses improved a lot.

Zou Jiang saw Zou Xiancheng's happy appearance, and felt that something was wrong: Master, what's wrong?How did you become so happy after seeing the water chestnut delivery person?

Three days after Zou Jiang was puzzled, news of the tragic death of the Lu family's family members and Aunt Lu reached the county government.Zou Jiang is Zou Xiancheng's confidant, and he has an eyeliner in the county government.

The scribe quietly copied a letter from the prefect's yamen and sent it to Zou Jiang.

When Zou Jiang saw the words "water bandits", "Gouhe Dao" and "ling chi" on it, and then thought of the old farmer who brought water chestnuts, he was shocked... The master paid off the water bandits to kill Aunt Lu.

How could the master take such a big risk?

If someone finds out, the master will definitely be accused of colluding with water bandits, and the whole family will lose their heads by then.
