Marriage of the Di Daughter

On the morning of Tongxiang, there was a small snow in the sky.

For the winter in the South, even if it is cold, snowing is a rare thing. There are not many people on the street. They go out from Qingshi Lane and can see many people’s yards. The women are cleaning the snow in the yard. The happiest thing is to count children. Snowflakes are natural fun and fresh stuff.

Daiyun got up early and took the snow grain on the vine in the yard carefully. Her young daughter, six-year-old Ping An, sat in the hall to eat, and was able to look in the mirror. The food is delicious, and from time to time, I look up at the window, and the snow falls and falls, which is quite interesting.

Daiyun said in the yard: "Peace, shut the window, don't want to catch cold."

Ping An should have a cry, climbed up from the stool, and slammed the door to close the window.

Daiyun looked at the roof and sighed. The weather was getting colder and colder. The snow was flowing down the broken roof. The house would be colder. If it fell to the safe, it would be troublesome. Have to find a time to make up the roof... If there is a man at home, it would be fine. Dai Yun couldn't help but think that when Xue Huaiyuan was still there, she didn't think so, but now she often floats this idea.

Daiyun is less than twenty-five years old this year. She is a young and beautiful woman. She is a widow. When her husband was just two years old, she went to the river to fish. In the ten years of hardships, the ship was opened. People are gone, and after that, the rest of the generation of Yunyun and the safe mother and daughter are dependent on each other.

It is always inconvenient to have no man at home. The new county magistrate Feng Yutang often wants to make an idea on her. Dai Yun can still cope with it twice and again, and I don’t know how long it will last. Those uncles who are neighbors are also willing to help, because of the intimidation of Feng Yutang, they dare not have more communication with her, so they have to be so silent.

Daiyun sighed. In any case, she only hoped that peace would grow up healthily. Dai Yun walked down to the stone table in the yard and sat down on the table with unfinished needlework. She relied on these to subsidize the family. Seeing her like this safely, I took the wood puppy out and sat next to Daiyun. The wood puppy is still made to her before the peace of life, Dai Yun sees this, the heart is even more sour.

The mother and the daughter are about to start a day's work, and suddenly I heard someone slamming the door of the courtyard, "笃笃笃."

"Someone is coming!" Pingdao.

Dai Yun looked at the courtyard door, and his heart was tight. I was afraid that Feng Yutang came over to find trouble. Every time Feng Yutang came, it was a nightmare for her. But today's knocking on the door is much milder than the impatient rush of the past.

Peaceful eyes wide open, staring at Daiyun. Daiyun had to stand up and walked to the front of the yard, hesitating for a moment before opening the door.

Outside the door is not Feng Yutang, who she hates, but a strange girl.

The girl was only fifteen or six years old, and her raw eyebrows were clear, wearing a dark green embroidered Yuehua dress and a cyan cloak. The cloak is wide, and she looks extraordinarily weak and petite. Her eyes are agile and her lips are shallow and smiling.

Dai Yun did not know this girl, but she could recognize the clothes worn by the girl, at least one hundred and two silver.

She was a little scared and said: "You are..."

The girl smiled at her: "My name is Jiang Li, I am looking for you, for the case of Xue County."

On behalf of Yun Yun, he quietly followed, hiding behind the fence in the yard, secretly looking at the strange sister.

Dai Yun had not had time to talk, and the girl had already walked in and said: "Come on, it's cold outside."

Jiang Lijing has stepped into the yard of Daiyun.

The yard is still the original appearance. If it is said to be compared, it is much more worn out than it was from the past. It seems that the days of Daiyun did not go well. When Xue Huaiyuan asked her to send money to Daiyun, Jiang Li also came here. At that time, Ping An was still a small point, and now it has grown so high.

Time is really fast.

Dai Yun looked at the girl, and it was a very embarrassing feeling in an instant. The girl named Jiang Li did not have a stranger in the yard. She even sat down at the stone table and looked at the needlework she had done. She sincerely admired: "It’s really good."

Dai Yun couldn't help but pull the peace and walked to the front of Jiang Li. He said: "Ginger...Ginger girl, I don't know what you mean by it? Xuexian Yi case... What happened?"

Jiang Li looked up at her and said: "Daiyun, Xuexian Yu was imprisoned for corruption and disaster, and he will be punished after five days. Who is Xuexian? You should not know. I want to be Xuexian. If you want to turn over the case, you need a witness, Daiyun. Would you like to be my witness and clean up the Xuexian County?"

Her voice was soft and soft, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting Dai Yun. Dai Yun did not come to the safety of the hand tighter, barely squeezed a smile, said: "Xuexian Yu, we are not very clear, we are just ordinary people, what the government said, what is it ..."

"How can you not know?" Jiang Li looked at peace, safely hiding behind Dai Yun, looking at her curiously. Jiang Li reached out to her, and she couldn't help but walk two steps forward. She also extended her chubby little hand to touch the fingertips of Jiang Li.

"Peace!" Daiyun excitedly stopped her. Peace is her life, and she will never allow her to make a mistake.

Peaceful to hear the mother's reprimand, and quickly retracted his hand, but still still curiously looking at Jiang Li, not a trace of fear.

"If there is no Xuexian, then peace will not live healthy until now?" Jiang Li looked at Daiyun. "With this, you can't make you a witness, say a word for Xuexian?"

Daiyun was struck by lightning.

When the husband died early, Dai Yun looked good and young, and the widow was in front of him. Some people played the idea of ​​replacing the cloud. It’s just that Dai Yun and the late husband have deep feelings and are not willing to remarriage. When he was two and a half years old, he had a serious illness. Dai Yun had no choice but to borrow money to pay for medical treatment. The disease was good and he spent a lot of money. The creditors have long been scared to succumb to the glory of the cloud for a long time, to Nadaiyun for the small 妾 to the silver, Daiyun refused, the man threatened to take the peace and sell it to the brothel mother.

When Yunyun was nowhere to go, Xue Huaiyuan stood up. Xue Huaiyuan rescued the peace that was taken away, and paid off the money owed to them by both their mother and daughter. At that time, it was Xue Huaiyuan’s daughter who sent the money. When the time cloud remembered the face of Miss Xue Jia, she lamented how there would be such a beautiful and kind woman in the world. Ping An also liked Miss Xue Jia. She saw her. Just a "giggle" smile.

At the moment, Jiang Pear suddenly revived, and Dai Yun was very confused. She did not want her daughter to know that she was an ungrateful person. But she can't make jokes about the safety of peace. Who is Feng Yutang? Tongxiang people know that the people who follow him are dead. If Feng Yutang knows that he is standing up to be a witness, Feng Yutang will definitely start with peace.

She is a mother and can't watch her child in danger.

Daiyun looked at Jiang Li, and there was a hint of prayer in his eyes: "Ginger girl, we...we really don't know, you look for someone else...just when we are sorry Xuexian is stunned..."

Jiang Li did not say anything, but Dai Yun still saw it, and there was a slight disappointment in the other's eyes. At that moment, I don’t know if it’s guilty. I don’t think that I saw it, it’s not the strange **** girl, but the beautiful and happy Miss Xue, her gentle smile is no longer, that’s it. Sitting quietly, watching her disappointed.

Dai Yun suddenly felt that he had no face to see people.

Jiang Li stood up and touched the head of peace. He said, "If that is the case, then I will go find someone else." She told Dai Yundao: "Excuse me." Turned and went out.

That's it... finished? Dai Yundao: "Ginger girl..." When Jiang Li stopped, she didn't know what to say. She was only half-hearted: "Maybe the other people in Tongxiang...like me..." she said Can't go on.

Jiang Lidao said: "I know, but if I don't do this, Xue County will really have no hope. I am very fortunate that Xue County has helped every household in Tongxiang, 568 households, and it sounds like Still very hopeful. If he only helped a few people, and those few people are as you are, then it is really disappointing." After a pause, she said: "Take good peace, you have paid for it. Don't give up at such a big price."

Jiang pear left.

Dai Yun bowed his head, holding her skirt in peace, squinting, innocent, and screamed: "Mother."

Dai Yun tears like rain.

......

At the other end, Ye Mingxi is knocking on the door of a family.

This family is very poor, living in a broken grass house, because of the snow and hair dryer last night, the whole house is crumbling, looking so sad. Ye Mingxi was born in the home of the rich man, and he rarely saw such poor people. The right is to look at the strange.

After a long time, someone came to open the door, but it was an old woman who was wearing a thin cotton coat. Just looking at it, Ye Mingxi felt cold.

The old woman saw Ye Mingxi, but she did not seem to see it. The doubt asked: "Someone? Are you...?"

This woman is a blind man and can't see anything.

Ye Ming said: "Old lady, is your son here? I am coming to your son." Jiang Li wrote to Ye Minghao's booklet, this family clearly has a talented son.

"You look for Wenxuan." The old woman said: "He went out to buy tofu, and he will come back soon. What are you looking for?"

The voice just fell, and there was a voice outside the voice: "Mother, I am back!"

When Mo Wenxuan just came home, he saw a tall man standing in front of his house. When he turned back, he saw that there was still a sly look on the face of the man. He was shocked and almost scared. Even the tofu has fallen. He asked: "This big brother..."

"You are Mo Wenxuan?" Ye Minghao looked critically at Mo Wenxuan. Mo Wenxuan is almost thirty now, and he has not yet become a family. He is alone, and he does not blame others. His family is too poor. And he was a single-minded student, but he was still a scholar. His hair was a little messy, he had a little beard, and he was wearing a white robbed cotton robes. He was a bit unclear and had to look closer.

Mo Wenxuan said: "Yes."

"I have something to look for." Ye Mingzhen's rough hobby: "Let's talk in one step." He wants to convince Mo Wenxuan to be a witness. Naturally, he can't be heard by an old woman who is so old. Just tell Mo Wenxuan to go outside and say.

Although the old woman was hesitant, she did not keep up. This family is too poor, not even a yard, Ye Mingxi had to talk to Mo Wenxuan to the open space behind the house.

Ye Ming said: "Mo Wenxuan, do you know that Xue Xianyu was imprisoned?"

Mo Wenxuan glimpsed, then nervously waved his hands again and again, looking around, saying: "Big brother... can't help, can't help!"

It’s a timid scholar, and Ye Mingxi’s heart disdains, saying: “What are you afraid of? Will you die? Rest assured, there is me, keep you not dead.”

Mo Wenxuan did not expect to encounter such an undisclosed Lord. Even though he was so afraid of trying to stop it, Ye Mingxi was still unmoved, and he was a "Xue County", for fear that others could not hear it.

"I said, Kid, Xue Xianyu is now in prison, and he will be sentenced in five days. The crime is corruption and sin. The person who is Xuexian is not a person. You will not know it? Kid, now we have to turn over the case for Xuexian. You need a witness. Would you like to be a witness, exposing Feng Yutang and helping Xue County to redress?"

When Mo Wenxuan heard it, he was shocked and shivered. He said: "Do not make it impossible!"

"What did you have to get?" Ye Mingxi did not look at such a person. He didn't have a good voice: "What can't be done? You say it! I saw Xuexian who helped you settle in Tongxiang and let you go to the countryside. Studying books, letting you test the talents, why didn't you say that you can't, if it's not Xuexian, now you don't even have to buy the tofu's copper plate, what do you want to raise your mother!"

Mo Wenxuan is not a Tongxiang person. Many years ago, he came to Tongxiang with his blind mother to go to relatives. Who knows that the distant relatives are dead, Mo Wenxuan is penniless, and he is a foreigner, and he will almost fall to beg. For a living. If Xue Huaiyuan accidentally met him on the street, he was bullied by a bunch of bullies, lend a helping hand and understand his situation. Knowing that Mo Wenxuan was bent on learning, he also let him go to the country to learn, and this was the result of Mo Wenxuan’s later examination. Although life is now poor, but if it was not the back of Xue Huaiyuan, Mo Wenxuan was afraid that he would have starved to death. Where can I support my mother?

"Everything is said to be a lot of dog-dogs, and most of them are reading people. My mother's today is also a sight to see!" Ye Mingxi hated the voice: "If Xue County knows that it was such a white-eyed wolf, it should not be the first time. Stretching you, you should be bullied by those bullies!"

Mo Wenxuan listened, his face turned red, and suddenly he angered: "Enough, stop! Don't I want to rehabilitate Xue Daren? Don't I know that Xue Daren is awkward? Renyi Zhongxiao, when I was studying, Read it! But Feng Yutang is really not a thing! Do you know how he treats those who want to help Xue Daren before? He hurts the parents and wives of others! Although Mo Wenxuan is not a hero, but a life There is nothing to fear, as long as I can help the benefactor! But I still have my mother, my mother has worked hard to raise me, now she has a blind eye, nothing can be done. I have not been able to make her enjoy in this life, but can not let She is in danger because of me!"

Mo Wenxuan finished his breath and his chest was violently ups and downs. He probably never quarreled with people. Even the neck is red, and the blue veins are on the forehead.

Ye Mingxi looked at him, his anger was slightly scattered, but he still hated him for not arguing. He said: "You don't want your mother to be in danger, but are you willing to let your mother be ashamed because of you? You don't know, You do this, your mother knows, how disappointing will you be? You are such a son, let her lift it up, which is more than a hundred times lower than what is poor and incompetent!"

"You!" Mo Wenxuan was blocked and speechless.

At this moment, a trembling sound sounded: "Wenxuan."

The two looked back and didn't know when, Mo Wenxuan's mother-in-law, the blind old woman, groped with a cane step by step. She was about to hear Ye Mingqi’s quarrel, and finally couldn’t help but come over. I can imagine that their quarrels were all heard by the old woman.

The old woman asked: "Wenxuan, this little brother said that it is true, Xuexian is really in prison?"

Mo Wenxuan swears that I can't answer it. The old woman blinked and couldn't go out. I don't know that Tongxiang has already undergone earth-shaking changes. He did not tell his mother, because Xiao was able to spleen the old woman, once she knew this, she must speak for Xue Xianyu.

But he does not want to look at his own mother to take risks.

"Wenxuan." The voice of the old woman was severe.

"It's true." Mo Wenxuan reluctantly replied: "It has been half a year. Xue Daren is jailed by corruption and sin, and will soon be punished."

"A nonsense!" The old woman suddenly stretched out her crutches and slammed her face. It was obviously mad. She said: "What kind of person is Xuexian, Tongxiang people know. There is no Xuexian. There is no Tongxiang today. Wenxuan, you are going to tell this little brother, you are willing to be this witness, and you can't forget this. If we don't stand up, what is the difference between us and those who are traitors? This is helping the abuse!"

"But mother..."

"I know what you are afraid of, I have lived so old, I have already lived enough, I am not afraid of death! If you are not afraid of death, stand up, if someone wants to harm you, the mother will accompany you, for so many years. Mother and son are coming together, and what they are afraid of when they die together. The most important thing to be a man is to have a bone. If you are afraid of death, you will find a place to hide. I will go out to testify with this little brother, absolutely not tired of you!"

"Mother, what do you mean by this? How can the son make you alone?" Mo Wenxuan slammed his feet and looked at Ye Mingxi. He said: "This big brother, you still find a place to hide my mother. Let me go out to testify with you. My mother is right. I can't forget the man. The traitor like Feng Yutang will go to **** sooner or later. How about this time for me to send him to hell?"

Ye Mingqi had already planned to give up. This scholar named Mo Wenxuan was timid and he was the most impatient to deal with the readers. Jiang Li may still be able to persuade him, but he can't really get it. Even Xue Huaiyuan said to them all the help, but still not moving, that is really impossible. Who knows that at the last moment, the peaks and turns, Mo Wenxuan’s mother jumped out and changed Mo Wenxuan’s idea.

Ye Mingxi looked at the mother and son two, and suddenly there was a hint of emotion. He was strong and strong, and he was very bold and courageous. But many people have family members and are embarrassed. Courage is not so simple to be born. It is no wonder that Jiang Li wants to say that the last step is the most difficult, because the human heart is unpredictable and there are many flaws.

But finally there is still someone who is willing to stand up, right?

Five hundred and sixty-six households, one person stood up, there must be a second household, a third household... human nature is evil and good.

Ye Mingxi patted Mo Wenxuan's shoulder, and he said with a rough voice: "Boy, don't hold a heroic dedication. Feng Yutang is a paper tiger. It's not worth mentioning. Besides, he will be in Tongxiang's good days. It’s coming to an end. No one will be like you, no one will be like your mother. Everyone will be fine, only Feng Yutang will be there.”

Mo Wenxuan arched his hand: "I am relying on my eldest brother."

"You're welcome!" Ye Ming said: "Then I will not stay more, I have to go to the next household."

"Next household?" the old woman asked strangely.

“The 568 households in Tongxiang, every household has received the favor of Xuexian, I have found more than 500 households, and one family is looking for witnesses.” Ye Mingxi is very proud.

"You are such a good person." Mo Wenxuan said in a dull way: "This kind of dedication to help Xue Daren is also the favor of Xue Daren in the past? If you have such a gratitude, Xue Daren must be very pleased." I thank you for Xue Daren."

"Hey, don't say, I haven't received the favor of Xuexian." Ye Ming said: "It's my niece, and Xue Daren's family has a duel, this time I came to Tongxiang to help. Thank you, thank her, she Called Jiang Li, the daughter of Jiang Yuanbai, the first assistant of today, you can see it later, it is a rare good girl."

Ye Ming is happy to think that this is the first family, and he is looking for someone who is willing to stand up. If Jiang Li knows this, he must be very happy.

For herself, and for the poor, Xue County, who is in prison.

......

In the county, Feng Yutang was waiting for a reply.

He had to take the life of Jiang Li in five days. He didn't know what Jiang Li was doing. The Xue family didn't mention it. It was that Princess Yongning knew that he had done things and would not let him go.

Moreover, the people who sent out, the 20 bodies in the backyard of the county, really let Feng Yutang sit in peace. Jiang Li is such an intractable enemy. Who knows what kind of means she will use to deal with herself? Her own man has lost the 20 most elite, and will not become one of the 20 bodies.

Feng Yutang didn't even think about it. The only thing that allowed him to stop his fear is that now, people immediately kill Jiang Li. In the future, he will say later, at least for now, he must remove the danger that makes him difficult to reassure.

But the people he sent out early this morning, like the twenty-three people sent out last night, have not heard yet. Feng Yutang waited until noon from morning to morning, and from noon to noon. In the evening, Xiaoxue gradually stopped. The outsiders had no wind and no snow, and it was very calm.

Calm makes people feel anxious.

There is no news, not only that, these people have not been found anywhere, they are like a short period of time, suddenly disappeared, no one found their traces, and even people doubt whether they are real Existed.

"Adults..." The little squatting of the goalkeeper rolled in and the voice was terrified. "Adults, they... they found it!"

"Found it!" Feng Yutang got a boost and stood up. He didn't even expect to hear the death of Jiang Li, as long as those people have fallen. He asked: "Where?"

"In... in the backyard." Little confused.

Feng Yutang’s heart gradually sank. He slipped a footstep and almost didn't stand firm. He tried hard to get up and said: "Go and see..."

But it is to look at Xiao Yan's face, but also know that the situation in the backyard is not good. However, Feng Yutang did not ask, as if he had seen it himself, he would die.

Twenty bodies found in the morning were covered with white cloth by his men and squatted in the corner of the backyard. I still don't know how to deal with it. Now the snow has stopped, and the backyard, which has already been vacant, has another row of bodies that have no vitality.

Feng Yutang closed his eyes.

Such a means, such a provocation, he is already at a loss. There are only seven people in Jiang Lili. How can he cut his head and neck like a chopped melon? Are these escorts all superb masters?

But how did they quietly send these bodies back to the backyard of the county? Feng Yutang knows that since they can send their bodies back to the county when they are ignorant, it means that they can take their lives silently at any time.

But why didn't they assassinate themselves?

Feng Yutang does not understand. He asked: "Is there a miser in the yard? Let her out and ask her when she saw suspicious people? Can't talk and compare!"

If the dumb is in the yard, maybe you can see how those people came in.

When I was a little embarrassed, I remembered that I had such a person, saying: "Speaking, it seems that I haven’t seen the miser in a few days?"

"Isn't it dead?" Feng Yutang frowned, the old woman, lived for a long time, every time she saw her, she felt that she would die shortly in the next second. They never paid attention to the miser, so no one found out the disappearance of the misunder, it was discovered, and it will not be in the heart. It’s about to die in your own house.

"Since these people have not been able to kill the **** pear, Jiang Li is still alive now." Feng Yutang suddenly asked: "Where is the **** pear now, what are you doing?"

The two hands are opposite each other, they are not dare to say.

Feng Yutang looked at him and said, "Say!"

"Ming Jiang and Jiang Erji were separated from Ye San's old men in the early morning. They went west along the county road and knocked on the door of the people. I don't know what the people inside said, and soon came out. Looking for a second home, I just found out when I came to the house."

"But I heard that they can hear the name of Xue Huaiyuan, and they should say the Xue family's case."
