The Republic of China Conspiracy Records

Chapter 4 Ruan Lang Returns (3)

I was taken aback and thought he was joking with me, but there was no joke in his eyes, he still looked at me so straight.I looked at him for a while, and then said: "Are you crazy? You are crazy looking for your father. You want to recognize a woman as your father, but you have to be willing."

Ruan Lang got anxious, jumped up from the bed, sat on the edge of the bed and argued with me, as if I would not let him recognize his ancestors, saying: "I saw it, it is really it, it is really it! "

I was confused by what he said, so I interrupted him and said, "Don't worry, who is it really? What did you see? Let's start from the beginning."

Ruan Lang was stunned, and then said: "The pair of scissors, with my name engraved on it, with Ruan on one side and Lang on the other side, are hidden in the blade when they are put together. They were made by my mother for my father. Let him It is absolutely impossible to have the same pair of scissors for changing the black silk. It was left open on the table, and I saw it.”

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "With just a pair of scissors, you dare to recognize a woman as your father, no, how did you see that pair of scissors, you stole into someone's house?"

Ruan Lang shook his head and said: "Yesterday, someone asked me to collect black hair today. I was planning to go. When I walked through the back door of a house, the door suddenly opened. The woman came out and told me For blue silk. When I saw her, I was surprised. She scolded me yesterday, but today she wanted to exchange blue silk with me. However, there was business coming, and I had to do it, so I stopped the car and stood in the backyard. I was about to cut it for her, but she said she wanted to cut it by herself in the mirror, so I followed her into the room. On the table next to the mirror, I saw the pair of scissors, engraved with Ruan on the left and Lang on the right. , can never be wrong."

I asked him, "What happened later? You didn't ask her why she had your father's scissors?"

Ruan Lang said: "Later, she looked in the mirror and suddenly cried, and I didn't dare to ask her again, and she also said that the black hair would not be cut, so she kicked me out."

When he said that, I immediately felt very strange, and said in my mouth: "This can only explain the relationship between Mrs. Luo and your father. How can you say that she is your father?"

Ruan Lang shook his head and said, "I think she is my father."

Ruan Lang looked at me and said, "She looks exactly like my father. I'm not saying she looks alike, but she behaves exactly like what my mother said. Did you find out?" , did she walk in the foreign horoscope?"

I laughed dryly: "I'm not looking for my father, why should I pay attention to her?"

Ruan Lang gave me a blank look, and said: "She will subconsciously step up her feet before taking two steps. Paused, thought for a while, and then said very solemnly: "On her shoulder, there is a tooth mark. When she lifted her black hair, I saw a tooth mark on her left shoulder. It was on the first day of marriage. , My mother was frightened by my father, she threw herself on his shoulder and bit him, the bite was so hard that it was imprinted into the flesh, and she couldn't get it back no matter what."

"Tell me," he stared at me, "is there such a coincidence in this world that a person has my father's scissors and has the exact same tooth marks in the same place as my father?"

I also think this is too coincidental, but I still asked him: "Assuming that what you said is true, but how did your father become a woman? I have seen Mrs. Na Luo, it is absolutely impossible for a man to disguise himself as a woman." Well, I know that some men can become women, but they have to be raised as women since childhood. Even so, if you look carefully, you can still see the difference. She can suddenly become a woman, and she also has a son, as far as I know, even if a man becomes a woman, it is absolutely impossible to have a child."

Ruan Lang was speechless for a long time, and he said after a long time: "I know all this, and I don't understand it, but I just think she is like my father. Even without the scissors and tooth marks, I still think she is like my father." , Sir, you are a person who can read and write, you must know the saying 'father and son connect heart', we only got along for a while, and I felt very familiar with her."

I questioned: "Is it so mysterious?"

Seeing that I didn't believe it, Ruan Lang became anxious again, and said, "I swear to God! Sir, everything I said is true."

I said: "Okay, okay, don't say anything about this, let's find out tomorrow, what is Mrs. Luo's background, if she is not a local, but suddenly appeared in Luolian Town, then she will It's very suspicious, let's investigate slowly."

Ruan Lang answered me sullenly, lay back on the bed, touched the head of the bed, threw something to me, and said, "It's your book, why did you throw it on my bed? Six characters, sir, do you know all these characters? What did you write?"

I took the book, which I threw on his bed when I was reading it in the morning, and said, "Xuncheng Ma wrote the family letter on behalf of his family, and he only got a job by being able to read. Can you not know these words? As for this Books are used to pass the time when you are bored on the way to deliver letters."

Ruan Lang said "Oh", apparently not interested in pursuing the question, I ignored him, turned on the oil lamp, lay on the bed and read for a while, until my eyes were sore, I blew out the lamp, and fell asleep with my clothes on. At this time Ruan Lang was already snoring loudly.

The next day I woke up early, Ruan Lang was still there when I woke up, we went to the front to have breakfast together, I asked the owner: "Master, half of the land in Luolian Town is in the hands of Mrs. Luo, so she must You also come from a rich family, right? When did you marry into Luolian Town, and where did you come from?"

The owner of the shop had nothing to do, so he sat down and chatted with us: "Oh, this Mrs. Luo is not married from outside the mountain, she is from this town, and I grew up watching her. Apart from the Luo family, there is no other big family in Luolian Town, so she comes from a small family, so she can be regarded as a small family jade at best, but not a lady of everyone."

I squinted at Ruan Lang from the corner of my eyes, and signaled him that since Mrs. Luo was born and raised in Luolian Town, she must not be his father. I said to the owner of the shop: "Mrs. Luo has to take care of the children in such a family business. Oh, she should have taken over the family business after the child grows up, otherwise, she wouldn't care about it."

The owner of the store shook his head and said: "Before the child was born, the old lady of the Luo family and her husband passed away one after another. It is said that they were suffering from tuberculosis, terminally ill. .”

I said "oh", thinking to myself, another posthumous child, now even the fact that Mrs. Luo gave birth to a child is confirmed, and it is even more impossible for her to be Ruan Lang's father. I asked the owner of the shop: "The child When was it born?"

The owner told the time, Ruan Lang murmured: "Your younger than me, born after me." The owner was a little deaf, and asked him: "What did you say?"

Ruan Lang said: "It's nothing, please ask the master, do you still remember, more than ten years ago, was there a shopkeeper with the same surname Ruan coming here?"

The owner of the shop Zou frowned, thought for a while, and said: "What happened more than ten years ago, let me think about it, if there are guests who come to Luolian Town, they will all live here, and there is no place to live except me. Luolian Town is hidden in the mountains, and few people come here at ordinary times. In the past ten years or so, there are not many shopkeepers who have been here. There is a shopkeeper who often comes here named Jiang, and others have been here before."

He shook his head, and said decisively: "No shopkeeper surnamed Ruan has passed by here, but there is a patrol horse surnamed Ruan who lived here, but he only came once, and never came again."

As he said that, he looked at Ruan Lang suspiciously, and said: "This little gentleman is also surnamed Ruan, and he is also a shopkeeper. He is looking for the same shopkeeper Ruan from more than ten years ago, isn't it?"

Ruan Lang smiled wryly, and said: "My father left home more than ten years ago and never went back. I'm coming out this time, and I'll ask about him by the way."

The owner of the shop suddenly realized, shook his head again and again, and said: "I didn't pass here. I remember all the shopkeepers who live here. Alas, there are many people who go out to ask for a living, and they can't go back. The world is not peaceful."

We chatted for a while, Ruan Lang was very disappointed, and at the same time felt even more strange, his father had never passed by here, so how could Mrs. Luo have his scissors?We couldn't figure it out, so he went out to sell. I went back to the house and read a few more pages of the book. Someone came and asked me to write a letter to my family. I threw the book on the bed and went out.

To my surprise, there were so many people writing home letters on this day. I went out in the morning and came back to have lunch at noon. Before I could go back to the back room, I was called away again. the entire afternoon.Finished writing the last letter home.I just stretched my body, smiled and said to the family: "I never thought that there would be so many people patronizing my business in Luolian Town. Thanks to you, I hope this year will be a good one."

The man smiled and said, "If you want to talk about this book, you can write it or not. It's not easy for people in the mountains to have two spare money. Those who go out will naturally come back when the time comes." , It’s not that he has been away for ten or eight years, what kind of family letter is he writing? It’s just that Mr. Wu is kind-hearted and said that it’s not easy to visit the city. If we want to write a family letter, just go to trouble Mr., and he will pay for it .”

I thought to myself why so many people want to write family letters today. It turns out that they don’t need to pay for it themselves. This Master Wu’s family is kind-hearted, willing to pay for the money, and let me follow suit, but I have to thank him well, so I asked Which master Wu's family is he?To my surprise, the Mr. Wu's family he was talking about was actually the one I had seen twice in the store before, and always appeared with Mrs. Luo's son.The owner of the store said that he was lying to the children, coaxing Mrs. Luo's son to gamble on the land, and won him a lot of land deeds. He was quite disdainful of him in words, and he never thought that he would do such a kind deed, and everyone spoke highly of him.

After leaving the house of the last family letter writer, when I returned to the store, it was already dark, I asked the owner to cook a bowl of noodles for me, at this time Ruan Lang came out from behind and shouted: "Master, please wait I didn't even eat a bowl."

He sat down across from me, and he was in good spirits. I guess he sold well today, so he was so happy, so I asked him, but he said: "In a small town in the mountains, I have been selling for two days. How can I do it today?" How much business has been done, I go out, just to see if I can collect some black silk."

I asked him, "So did you get some money back?"

He replied: "I took one in total." Although I only accepted one in total, but seeing his expression was very happy, I remembered that he told me on the first night that there was a girl at the end of the town who asked him for the first time. The next day I went to collect Qingsi, and said that the girl seemed to have that kind of meaning for him.He was disturbed by Mrs. Luo's matter yesterday, so he didn't collect it. He thought he would collect it today.I have warned him that we people who go around the village must not provoke anyone who cannot be provoked. I don't know if he listens, but I can't say anything about him.

Ruan Lang was in high spirits, and continued to say: "That black hair is very good, shiny black, with a black light, I'll show it to you when I go in."

The shop owner brought over two bowls of noodles, and we ate with the oil lamp and went back to the back room. Sure enough, Ruan Lang took out the package and wanted to show me the blue silk.He unwrapped the package, took out the neatly coiled blue silk, and boasted to me: "Sir, look, this blue silk will definitely fetch a good price if sold in the pear orchard. Guess she wants me How much? That girl is so kind, she said it was not easy for us shopkeepers, so she almost gave it to me for nothing!"

Seeing that he was spitting, I intentionally poured cold water on him, saying: "This black hair is pretty good, but hey, be careful not to have a head attached to it."

Ruan Lang smiled and said: "Mr. heard the story from me and used it to scare me. Well, let me see if the girl who gave me hair gave me her head. There is really a bulging head inside." I don't remember what I put in there."

As he spoke, he pulled out the black hair, and with a strong hand, he immediately pulled out all the green hair, and there was a round thing attached to it, and he was still saying, "Hey, what is this?" ?” But I had already seen that thing clearly, and immediately yelled out in horror, almost fainting from fright.

The bulging under the entangled black hair is exactly the head of a girl.

Ruan Lang trembled when I called out, and at this moment he could see clearly what he was carrying in his hand. He also screamed hysterically, threw the thing out of his hand, then leaned back straight, and fell on the bed. , was so frightened that he passed out.
