Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 52
I saw the young man walking towards the front of the crowd in a gentle manner, cupped his hands and said slowly to the folks who were having different opinions: "Fellow folks, can I hear a few words from the younger generation?"

At this time, Lin Xiaoqiao heard a lot of discussion among the crowd. Some people said: "Isn't this the son of Widow Zheng in our village?" Others said: "Yes, he is the only scholar in our village. I heard that he was born last year. Anyone who has passed the Tongsheng Examination is about to become a scholar! What is he trying to tell us?"

Everyone was in awe when they heard the young man's words. Even though the young man was only thirteen or fourteen years old, his status as a scholar made everyone dare not underestimate him.

After feeling the eyes of everyone, the young man turned his head to look at Lin Xiaoqiao, and gave her a comforting look and a smile. Lin Xiaoqiao looked at his clear eyes like a pool of spring water, and she saw the firmness in his eyes. And comfort, she unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, loosened her tight little shoulders, and unconditionally believed that he could help her, so she nodded to him with a smile.

After the young man received Lin Xiaoqiao's trust, he said to everyone: "Fellow folks, those strange stories about nightmares are all nonsense, and they are all rumors of strange powers and gods. Please don't believe them casually, as this will harm everyone. Many innocent people have been killed. Students have read some books, and have seen some stories of irreparable tragedies caused by nightmare stories! I have also heard of some ignorant people who made up nightmare stories in order to shirk their own guilt. It’s the truth, so folks, don’t be easily deceived by some people with ulterior motives!”

When other people uttered such remarks, these ignorant and superstitious folks might refute, but after the young man finished speaking, everyone nodded their heads to show that they were educated.

Looking at this scene, Lin Xiaoqiao felt more and more the importance of having a scholar in his family. The status of a scholar in this kind of society is so respected. In the future, he must let his two older brothers learn to read and write.

Seeing that everyone didn't believe her words and turned against her, Mrs. Liu lost her slightly complacent expression just now, and felt anxious again, so she said casually: "Don't listen to this brat's nonsense, how old is he?" What do you know! He is lying to you. What I say is what you should believe. "

After Mrs. Liu said this, before the boy could say anything, an uncle in the crowd stood up and pointed at Mrs. Liu and scolded indignantly: "You woman, don't talk nonsense, this is what the only scholar in our village said. You will be a scholar soon, if you continue to talk nonsense, Master Xiucai will arrest you and put you in prison."

Liu Shi was so frightened that she immediately stopped talking, not daring to speak any more.

Lin Xiaoqiao signaled to Li Erhu to drag them to the Yamen as soon as possible, and don't give the two of them another chance to deceive the public.

At this time, Mr. Lin suddenly grabbed Lin Erniu's hand vigorously, wiped his face, and said with a pleading look on his face, "Erniu, do you have the heart to let your mother go to prison? What did she do wrong, isn't your daughter-in-law okay? That child, just treat him as not destined to us!"

Lin Xiaoqiao looked at Mr. Lin's hypocritical appearance, and felt that it was very annoying. Now that he had nothing to do, he came to play a trick.

So, she said sarcastically: "What do you mean my mother is fine? If I didn't ask my brother to ask the doctor today, my mother wouldn't know if there was anything wrong. What's more, the doctor has said that my mother will not be able to give birth in the future." The child, and the child in my mother's womb, what is no fate, he was growing up in my mother's womb, why did he invite you to provoke you, you want to hurt him like this. Grandma, aunt , Grandpa, aren’t you afraid that my unborn younger brother and sister will dream back in the middle of the night and come to ask for your life?” He said with a vicious expression on his face.

The Zhou family and the Liu family were guilty of thieves, and they were so frightened that they shrank behind Mr. Lin.

The three Lin Xiaoxi brothers and sisters all took a few steps forward and walked to Lin Xiaoqiao's side. The four brothers and sisters stood in a row, supporting her with silent strength, and also used this to inform Lin Erniu of their four brothers' and sisters' position.

Seeing this kind of attitude, Mr. Lin knew that things could not go well today, but he couldn't just sit and watch his wife being arrested and locked up in a prison. If that was the case, he would lose face to the whole world Went to the county.

So, he thought about it, forced out a few tears, and then said to Lin Erniu: "Erniu, no matter how good your mother is, she is also the mother who gave birth to you and raised you. How could you be so cruel?" .”

At this time, Mrs. Zhou was no longer as arrogant as before, and only had the deep fear of going to jail and beheading in her heart.

At this moment, after listening to Mr. Lin's words, she also grabbed Lin Erniu's arm, and said with tears in her eyes, "Erniu, mother loves you the most, and she pulled you with feces and piss since she was a child." When I grow up, I will marry you a wife and have children, so you can repay your mother like this. My mother doesn't want to go to court or go to jail at such an age, do you want to be scolded for being unfilial by poking your spine in the future!"

Lin Daniu on the other side also walked up to Lin Erniu with great eyes, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice with guilt on his face: "Second brother, it is the elder brother who is sorry for you, but you have the heart to watch your sister-in-law go Sit in prison, no one cares about your nephews and nieces, do you have the heart to watch them be motherless children? If you refuse to let your sister-in-law go, the elder brother will kneel down for you, and the elder brother will kneel down for your sister-in-law to atone for her sins. "As he said that, he looked like he was about to kneel down.

Seeing his posture, Lin Erniu quickly grabbed him firmly and refused to let him kneel down, but he didn't give any answer to the crowd.

Mrs. Liu also walked up to Lin Erniu, crying and confessing hypocritically: "Second brother, I was wrong, I shouldn't have been obsessed with doing such a thing, even if I was told to die immediately, it would be difficult to atone for my sin! But, Your nephews and nieces are still so young, they can't do without my mother, just for the sake of a few nephews and nieces, let me go, I promise I will never dare again. "

After Mrs. Liu's words fell, Lin Jiao was pushed by Mr. Lin, and rushed over, hugging Lin Erniu's thigh and crying loudly. There was a lot of crying in the room of Mrs. Li and his wife, and the scene was extremely chaotic...

Lin Xiaoqiao looked at all this with cold eyes. All the members of the Lin family were smart, knowing that Lin Erniu was the most honest and soft-hearted, so they all surrounded him to plead for mercy.

Lin Erniu was surrounded by the crowd, listening to their cries, and feeling the warning eyes from Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Li. The double pressure made his heart really tormented...

Seeing him holding his head in his hands in pain, he suddenly squatted on the ground. Everyone was confused by this scene and didn't know what to do.
