Chapter 290 Big Girl and Second Girl (6)

"The villain has never met my aunt. I wonder why my aunt visited me late at night? There must be some misunderstanding. Can you give me a chance to prove my innocence?"

"Hmph! Prove your innocence!"

Changyan's knife was sent forward, deliberately letting the butler feel the coldness of the knife.

"Let me ask you, did you arrange for someone to lure Zhou Fa from Da Tao Village to gamble? Did you deliberately trick them into desperation and promised to sell Tuesday Niu to Mr. Zhuang? If you dare to say nonsense, I will kill you."

Zhou Da Niu only told her that her brother Zhou Fa went to gamble, and the people in the gambling shop paid off the money for the first time. Due to their inexperience, they forgot about the IOU in a hurry, and they came to collect the debt again the next day. It was clear that neither Zhou Niu nor her mother could repay their debts, so Mr. Zhuang stepped forward at such a good time and offered to ask for Zhou Niu. He was afraid that he would have set his sights on Zhou Niu.

Mr. Zhou Wang must have disagreed, otherwise he would not have jumped out of gambling and happened to show up to use Tuesday Niu to pay off the debt.

Therefore, Chang Yan was deceiving the housekeeper when he opened his mouth.

But the housekeeper was not very honest. It had only been more than half a year. He would not forget it. Instead, he said with a sad face: "Xia Xia, Xia Xia! You will know when you go out and ask around! This is not what we would do! That week I just couldn't control myself and gambled away my money. It's because I'm kind-hearted and I only want a girl like Tuesday. What's the price of a girl's movie these days!"

"You're dishonest, so I'm giving you a warning." Changyan pressed his hand, and the blade of the knife was deflected. He pressed it against the butler's chin, and the knife sank in. The butler shivered in pain. Changyan said coldly, "You can try it. What will happen if you continue to fool me!”

The current social situation is similar to that of the early Tang Dynasty. In the early Tang Dynasty, there was a rent-yong system. In the middle period, due to serious land annexation, it was difficult to maintain and it was changed to a two-tax system.

"My master fell in love with Zhou Niu, a girl from the Zhou family. This girl was pretty good. I went to tell Mr. Zhou that I would take a concubine. What's wrong with being my master's concubine? But Mr. Zhou kicked me out. come out."

This part is what Tuesday Niu doesn’t know.

Only then did the housekeeper confirm that Changyan was not trying to scare him, but was serious.

"Since I told him well and he didn't want to listen, then don't blame me for being ruthless. In the county town, my master has a gambling house. He directly found a servant and lured him to gamble. He will not be able to pay off the debt by then. , I can’t just give my daughter to the master.”

"How could old man Zhou be willing? In the end, we negotiated and allocated 10 acres of Yongye land to jointly pay compensation."

The housekeeper was scared and just wanted to send this ancestor away quickly: "I didn't expect that they collected the money. Fortunately, the thugs said that they didn't take the IOU. They can take the IOU and ask for it again. Old Man Zhou specified that he couldn't get it. So much money comes.”

He couldn't help but shudder, and then the knife went deeper. There was a lot of blood, and the housekeeper finally told the story.

"The thugs took the IOU and went to ask for money, deliberately squeezing the debts of Zhou Niu and the Wang family. My master listened. He went and said that he could help him pay back the money, but he needed Zhou Niu to come as a mortgage and Mr. Zhou's Yongye field. Let’s fight together.”

The housekeeper couldn't help but shrink back as he spoke, feeling a little regretful.

"Continue." The knife in Changyan's hand was steady and did not shake at all after holding it for so long.

Mr. Zhuang, an old landowner, would never let it go easily. He would buy land whenever he got the chance. He was afraid that he wanted to buy all the Yongye fields in Dadao Village and engage in land annexation. All of it has become his land, and landless farmers can only be tenants. If he raises the rent, he can just make money.

Changyan continued to ask: "Where is Tuesday girl?"

"Are you here to find Tuesday Girl?" The housekeeper's thoughts started to change again, and he rolled his eyes, "She ran away long ago!"

"Where have you gone?"

"Auntie, how do I know this? All I know is that I ran up the mountain. It seems to be over there at Jagan Mountain. It is said that there are wolves on the mountain. Who wants to look for it!" Changyan used some force again: "Before she ran away on Tuesday, What did you do to her?"

With the knife pointed at her throat, the housekeeper suppressed his thoughts and shied away the responsibility: "My master was not good to her. She had a miscarriage, so she ran away like crazy."

The butler spoke vaguely, trying to get away with it. He was afraid that if he told the truth, this woman would really kill him.

Changyan glanced at him sharply and snorted coldly: "Is this what you told her? You were sold here to pay off your family's debts. I can do whatever I want. Force her, and her father won't do it." Cooperate and let you torture her, even if she gets pregnant, because she feels that she is of low status and is just a peasant girl. There is no shortage of women in the world to give birth to a child for Mr. Zhuang, and Mr. Zhuang does not lack this child either. Tuesday girl got pregnant, and you continued to torture her until she miscarried.”

"Her miscarriage is not over yet, so you continue to torment her until she can't bear it and runs out. This is not over yet. You and Old Man Zhou have agreed that Tuesday Niu is part of the debt repayment. Tuesday Niu ran away, and you use this as an excuse to demand Old Man Zhou I sold the remaining fields to you. Am I right?"

Seeing the shock and guilt in the housekeeper's eyes, Changyan knew that she was right.

The housekeeper hesitated and denied: "How can we be so shameless..."

"How often have I seen you do shameful things? Cannibalism is not considered shameful in your eyes." Changyan naturally didn't believe him, and her tone became a bit colder. "Someone brought a pair of silver coins to Zhou Niu." Bracelet, did you lose it?"

It is basically difficult to get past the housekeeper's affairs in the village. The housekeeper didn't even know the whereabouts of the pair of bracelets. Finding the pair basically depended on luck.

The housekeeper thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of anything, so he just talked about other things.

Changyan saw that he really didn't know about the bracelet, so he stopped talking nonsense with him. He pressed and pulled the knife in his hand and cut the butler's throat.

Blood spurted out, and Chang Yan watched him die in pain.

The knife was still dripping with blood, and Chang Yan went to trouble Mr. Zhuang again.

Mr. Zhuang is sleeping. Next to him lay a very young girl.

Without saying a word, Chang Yan stabbed Mr. Zhuang's heart with a knife. Mr. Zhuang only had time to scream, and then he quickly lost his breath.

The little girl was splattered with blood and screamed in fear.

The night was too dark and she was too scared to look at Chang Yan's face.

Changyan put away the knife and went out immediately.

But instead of leaving the village house, he went to search first, then went to the kitchen to pack some food while taking advantage of the chaos, and then went out while taking advantage of the chaos.

Find Ruyi first, and then pull Ruyi to quietly leave Dadao Village.

Ruyi heard the screams and asked curiously as the village house became lively: "Sister, I just heard the screams. I'm afraid something happened here."

"Whatever happens has nothing to do with us. Mr. Zhuang is not a good person." Changyan did not tell Ruyi about this. Instead, he took her to carefully avoid people and headed to Jagan Mountain according to Zhou Darniu's description.

Jagan Mountain is relatively far away, and it is said that there are wolves in it. If the girl ran into the mountains on Tuesday, it’s hard to say whether she’s in there or not. If she does go, it’s even harder to say whether she’ll survive after staying there for so long. The hope is very slim.
