Farmhouse smoke rises

Chapter 54

The Su family stayed indoors, and it was time to feed the chickens and cows, but no one dared to go out.No one in the room spoke, and even Xiao Bai, who usually thought and talked a lot, seemed to feel that something terrible was about to come, and he couldn't get down on the kang.Su Fang was sitting next to Su Bai, staring blankly at the front, not knowing what was going on in her heart.

From time to time, there were a few chickens crowing outside the house, which was particularly piercing in the silent air.

Finally, when everyone was so nervous that they were about to collapse, footsteps finally came from the gate.It seemed that there were only two people. The footsteps were not very messy, but they were extremely firm and powerful. It could be seen that these two people were both practitioners, so they would not be able to confront them head-on for a while, Su Yu thought in his heart.

Su Gu'an and Wang Sang dared to go out when they heard the noise, and greeted them far away: "Qi Ye, you are here, hurry up and sit in the house!" Su Gu'an flattered him The ghost seven expressed their affection.

As a wife, Wang Sang naturally didn't have the right to speak, she just smiled flatteringly, and her waist was bent too low just like Su Gu'an.

Ghost Seven seems to have just collected the rent quite smoothly. He didn't want to find fault with Wang Sang and Su Gu at the moment, and he didn't enter the house, but he forgot to glance behind them, as if he was looking for someone. Then he asked, "Where are the children in your family?"

Wang Sang was taken aback. I don't usually see rent collectors coming into the house to look for our children. Could it be that they are going to use some means against my children?
"Master Qi, these children are all in the house, do you want me to call them out?" Su Gu'an saw that Ghost Seven's words had reached this level, even if they wanted to hide the children well Impossible.

"Call me out and show it to Master Qi. I really want to know what kind of children the young master misses every day?" Not friendly, with a fierce look.

During the conversation, Su Yu had already walked out of the house with his younger siblings. After seeing Ghost Seven, he brought Su Bai and Su Fang to salute. "Hello Qi Ye." Su Yu was neither humble nor overbearing, but he didn't look up.She felt that bowing her head would make the other party feel that she still respected him very much.

Ghost Seven took a look at these children, but didn't think they were so brilliant, so he simply ignored them, but said to Su Gu'an and Wang Sang, "How is it? You can eat the food I asked you to prepare last time." Are you ready? A total of [-] bags of rice plus [-] bags of corn kernels." Because the sacks used by the farmers in Qingshui Village are all provided by the gold landlords, and they don't need to find someone to weigh them. They only need to bring one bag The weight is almost calculated, and when the rent is collected, the corresponding amount can be collected.

As soon as the ghost seven words came out, Su Gu'an and Wang Sang were shocked. The total annual harvest of their family was only [-] bags of rice and [-] bags of corn grains. Where could they get so much food?

"Master Qi..." Su Gu'an's face was full of color: "Master Qi, didn't you say fifteen bags of rice and ten bags of corn when you came last time..."

Who knew that the little follower beside Gui Qi gave Su Gu'an a slap before he could finish speaking, and then cursed: "Bold! We, Qi Ye, say as much as you want! How can you haggle?" !"

Seeing Su Guan being beaten, Wang Sang's first reaction was not to check his injuries, but to turn around and stand in front of the three children, just like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

Su Gu'an was severely beaten when he saw it, blood was seeping from the corner of his mouth, he bent down for a long time before he stood up straight again, but even if they were beaten, they didn't dare to fight back, so they could only beg again: "Qi Ye, I beg you to be kind, our family's harvest this year will not be able to pay the rent, and now we can't make up the rent. If we pay more food, then our whole family will I'm going to starve to death! Please, Master Qi! I'll kneel down for you, okay!" After finishing speaking, Su Gu'an knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Gui Qi with a bang.

When Wang Sang saw Su Gu'an kneeling, she also knelt on the ground, dragging a few children by the way, wanting to kneel down for Gui Qi together.

But when I looked behind me, I realized that as long as Su Yu was still standing there and looking at Gui Qi, no matter how Wang Sang signaled, she would not kneel.

She was already angry when Ghost Seven beat her father just now, and now she wants to kneel down to her enemy, what are you kidding?
Gui Qi saw that the little girl was able to look at him for such a long time without changing her face, so she understood the identity of this person: "This little girl is Su Yu, right? She really looks like a water spirit, why, don't you kneel? "

Su Yu closed her eyes, making it impossible to show dissatisfaction on her face. "I would like to ask Lord Qi, why should I kneel?"

There was a hint of viciousness in Ghost Seven's face, how dare such a young girl not give him face?

"Your parents are kneeling, of course you have to kneel." What Gui Qi said was logical.

Su Yu glanced at him disdainfully, and said sarcastically: "If you kneel down, can you agree to reduce our rent? How much is not determined by the above, you are just a slave, how dare you raise the rent?" Is it possible for the son to fill his own pocket immediately?"

As soon as Gui Qi heard Su Yu's words, he immediately became furious, and the servant beside him was even more discerning. Before Gui Qi could order, he went up and slapped Su Yu, but Su Yu avoided it deftly.

"You little hoof, how dare you hide! See if I don't beat you until your parents can't recognize you!" The servant roared loudly, and was about to rush towards Su Yu, but was caught by Su Gu'an and Wang Huan in front of him. Sangge stopped them, and the two of them knelt on the ground and hugged the servant's thighs, begging: "I beg you, sir, she is still young and ignorant, so please forgive her this time. Come on, our husband and wife kowtow to you!"

At this moment, Su Bai was so frightened that he burst into tears, and shrank behind Su Fang.

"Get up!" The attendant pushed the two of them away, and walked towards Su Yu viciously.

"Father, mother, don't stop him, I see how capable he is, he wants to hit me." Su Yu looked at Gui Qi provocatively, that Gui Qi smiled coldly, stopped him and wanted to hit me people's follower.

"Qi Ye, don't stop me, let me teach this ignorant girl a lesson for you!" The servant was still shouting.

Ghost Seven scolded in a voice that could only be heard by him and his followers: "Beat your mother, this is the person Master Jin wants! How dare you beat me!"

Seeing that Su Yu didn't succeed in hitting her, he knew that his guess was half right, and that this person really had another purpose.

It stands to reason that even if the gold landlord is greedy for money and wants to charge more rent, he should do so as far as possible, and it will not exceed the Su family's ability to bear too much, and if he charges so much at once, the Su family will not be able to get it out at all. Landlord Jin pushed the Su family into a hurry, and he got nothing.

And this time overcharged so much, obviously there are other reasons in it.Su Yu felt that either the gold landlord hated him for blackmailing him, or he had other plans.Sure enough, as she had expected, Ghost Seven was really not able to do anything to her, and that was the second reason she guessed. What she can do now is to wait and see what happens.

"Let me just say it straight. Landlord Jin is kind. Seeing that your family can't afford so much food, he said that if Su Yu went to Jin's house to be a student with Master Jinsi for a winter, he would not want your family's rent." What do you think?" Gui Qi saw that Su Yu had clearly seen through his own thoughts, so he didn't keep it up, and directly said the landlord's order.

When Su Guan and Wang Sang heard this, they firmly disagreed.The Jin family is such a dangerous place, Su Yu is only ten years old, even if it is a winter, they are determined not to let it go.

"Qi Ye, our child is still young, going to Jin's house will definitely cause you trouble, so please don't let him go." Wang Sang straightened his back this time, and said neither humble nor overbearing.

Ghost Seven was polite to Su Yu because he was afraid of Su Yu. Back then, when Su Yu blackmailed the gold landlord and the silver taels, the gold landlord blocked the news from the outside world, but this ghost seven didn't know. Su Yu went to be a companion for Young Master Jinsi, and it took so much effort, it must be that Su Yu is particularly difficult to invite, but she is polite to Su Yu, which does not mean that she is also polite to Wang Sang.

Suddenly, Gui Qi stepped forward and was about to slap Wang Sang, but was stopped by Su Yu.Seeing Su Yu rushing to the front, Ghost Seven quickly stopped his hands, otherwise Su Yu's lower arm would definitely not be able to stop such a big man from being slapped.

"I advise you to think it through before you do something. Although you named me, if you beat my mother, can you afford it?" Su Yu slammed Gui Qi's hand to the right. Shake, the tone is full of toughness.

Su Yu has been very angry since he beat Su Yu's father just now, now you still want to beat my mother?What do you think of me?Decorate it?

Anyway, Su Yu could see now that Gui Qi didn't dare to do anything to her, so naturally he no longer feared him, at least not before going to Jin's house.Su Yu is the best at doing things like foxes pretending to be tigers. Although the landlord must have no good idea, but since you have come to your door, then I don't make good use of it. Wouldn't I be very sorry for you?

"Hmph! I'll let you off once because of Su Yu's face. Su Yu, go clean up and go to town with me." Gui Qi stepped back a few steps and said to Su Yu over there.

Su Yu didn't look at him, but helped up a family of people who were kneeling.Perhaps because Su Yu is a modern person, she always feels that there is gold under her knees, and she never kneels casually.It's been so long in ancient times, she hasn't even knelt down before her parents, so what kind of thing is that ghost seven?And his snobbish follower, one day Su Yu will return the slap he slapped Su Gu'an ten times and a hundred times back.
