Chapter 67

: The Evil

Her surname is Dong, and she is neither a scholarly lady. She usually has no name. She should have been named Aunt Dong or Dong Erniang. However, because there is a small butterfly-shaped red birthmark on her left cheekbones, her parents and neighbors called her butterfly when she was a child. The birthmark on her face is not big and not very ugly. The big dark spot was naturally applied to her by herself during the day, and her hands were pretending to be out of control, just to win the sympathy of the audience for their livelihood.

Bao Cheng originally thought she had returned home, but when he returned to the yard of many families, he asked several people, but he said he had not seen Dong. He walked to his door and saw that the door was still locked. He touched the key and thought to himself that she hadn't come back.

So Bao Cheng opened the door and moved the big knife and other things into it. As soon as he entered the door, the neat room made him feel comfortable. The old table, the bed and other things were spotless, and everything was well organized, which was completely different from the messy situation in the yard.

At this time, Bao Cheng thought to himself that Die'er was good at managing the house. He threw down his things and saw a stack of clothes on a bed at the door of his bedroom. It seemed that she hurriedly put them in and placed them there in the morning. Bao Cheng suddenly felt a little sad. He picked them up and smelled them, and there was a fragrance of soapy beans.

My stomach was turbulent, but I couldn't smell the smoke from cooking.

He had to find her back first. Bao Chengxin said that even for the sake of his fellow villagers and villages, he could not throw people in Luoyang City like this. After thinking about it, he stood up and locked the door and went out. I heard that Zhenguan would not have to lock the door, but now he had to lock it, otherwise valuable things would easily disappear.

Most of the men in Baojia Village, Baocheng's hometown, have the same surname. He should be called Dong's husband and brother, so Dong is his sister-in-law. After arriving in Luoyang, he was able to abide by etiquette and did not do anything contrary to morality. It is really difficult for this lonely man and widow to have no reason, because Baocheng is afraid that he will cause bloody disaster if he touches her.

This woman is a "white tiger"! It was reported by her in-laws. Such a woman is ominous and will be in trouble as soon as she touches her. Bao Cheng used to be skeptical, and what the old man said still makes some sense. After all, if you have something to say and don't listen to the old man's words, he suffered a loss. Later, he believed it completely. It was really mysterious: less than half a year after Dong married into Baojia Village, her husband lost cleanly in a casino in Luoyang City, and he still owed a lot of debts to run away. The brothers of the Bao family have always been gambled, but they are all small gamblings. They have never won more than they lose, and they don't lose much. This time they are really obsessed with it.

The husband ran away and the family was in peace. You can imagine how Dong's treatment was. Before she ran out, she was in trouble with two families about divorce. The in-laws wanted to divorce her, but there was no legitimate reason. The divorce required reasons such as inability to have children, unfaithfulness, etc., and they could not divorce just because they were a white tiger. After discussion, the people from her parents agreed, but they had to ask for a large amount of compensation. This was very troublesome.

As Bao Cheng walked, he thought that his land in his family had been merged. In the future, he would either continue to run around the world or rely on the people, and would never have a status for his whole life... His martial arts are really cowardly, and it is a right way to recruit soldiers and recruit livelihoods. In the long run, if he can make contributions and make contributions, it is not impossible to achieve success. Xue Rengui and other great people are the heroes in his heart. They are named marquis and generals, and are famous all over the world!

...Dong's woman, who came to Luoyang by herself, took care of her for so long, was considered a fellow villager. Fortunately, she didn't touch her, otherwise it would be unreasonable to pay attention to her. Bao Cheng thought: It would be better to send her home. It would be better to go back to her parents' home. What hope does a woman have to wait for her when she is floating outside? Besides, I want to do serious things and have no time to take care of her anymore.

In short, I have to find her, persuade her to go back, and bring some money back. Moreover, Bao Cheng also has a hidden worry. Such an ominous thing is around him. Not to mention whether he will be granted a marquis or a prime minister, he may be unlucky to encounter a bloody disaster.

...Bao Cheng went home first and then came out. After a while, Sanniang found Dong first. After dark, the rain became heavier. Dong was soaked that he was wet. He was standing under the eaves of the house and shivered with cold.

Sanniang walked up to her with an umbrella and saw that the dark spots on her face had been wet with rain, her hair was stained on her forehead, and her face was a bit sad and beautiful, and her goose-shaped face was not ugly.

When Dong saw someone walking in front of him, he was a little scared and couldn't help but stare at the oil-paper umbrella, holding his hands in front of his chest, his face very pale.

At this time, Sanniang lifted the umbrella up, revealing her cold face. Dong's heart became cold, and then she remembered that she was the person next to the official at night. If it were other guards, Dong would probably not remember it, but Sanniang was really special.

"Do you recognize me? Come with me, I am a person in the government, not a bad person." Sanniang said lightly.

Dong shook his head.

Sanniang pondered for a moment, as if thinking about Dong's thoughts, and said immediately: "You don't have to have prejudice against us. Bao Zhuangshi has great skills. Even if he doesn't meet our husband, one day he will have the opportunity to find a way... Things that do not belong to you can't keep them."

When Dong heard Sanniang speak politely and considerately, he finally said: "I'll wait first, otherwise he will feel panicked if he can't find anyone later."

"Are you so sure he will come to you?" Sanniang said.

Dong said lukewarmly: "We are all from Baojia Village and fellow villagers. He will not leave me alone, otherwise he would not have taken me in at the beginning... I think he would ask someone to take me home."

After hearing this, Sanniang nodded with a wry smile: "It's so good to have a home."

Dong's voice choked and said, "I don't want to go home, neither side wants to go back. Going back is harder than dying, but I can't make up my mind to die..." I don't know if the water droplets on her face were tears or rain.

Sanniang was silent for a long time and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I can only go home, otherwise there is any way... I shouldn't have run out at the beginning."

Sanniang said calmly: "It is not as easy to survive outside by relying on oneself. Even if you are a slave, the rich will not want people with unclear origins and unknown character."

At this moment, a man as tall as a mountain on the street walked towards this side. Dong's face showed surprise at first, and then dimmed again. When Sanniang saw her expression, she looked back and saw that Bao Cheng was walking towards this side.

It was late and it was raining again. There were already very few people on the long street, but there were lanterns hanging on the classic wooden building, and the light was not dark. Bao Cheng walked for a while and found Dong under the eaves.

He walked over, glanced at Sanniang, clasped his fists and said, "You are..."

Sanniang said, "I am from Xue Lang's family. At first, Xue Lang, who was practicing martial arts with you on Fuqian Street."

"Oh, I'll be happy, I'll be happy," Bao Cheng smiled heartily, then glanced at Dong, stopped his smile and said, "Go back first, let's talk about it."

Dong didn't say anything, lowered his head and walked out. At this time, Sanniang took the umbrella over and covered her head. Seeing this, Dong's face warmed up and said thank you.

Bao Cheng said, "I don't know how to call you?" Sanniang said, "I am a woman, not an official, just call me Sanniang."

Bao Cheng beat him up, wondering in his heart that Xue Lang's people ran here to find Dong's family. He had worked in the Zhechong Mansion before. Although the martial arts people were not as circumnant as civil servants, there were still many rules and etiquettes, especially when he was at the dinner table, he understood that the rules of military generals were no less than those of literati. So Bao Cheng also thought about what Sanniang came over. Could it be that Xue Lang wanted to take the exam for my character?

So Sanniang did not ask about Dong's identity or anything else. Bao Cheng first said: "We people who come to Wu, like my name, pay attention to one sincerity and one loyalty! I will never say that they are empty in front of Xue Lang, Die'er... She is indeed not my inner friend. Just ask her and you will know that I have always treated you with courtesy for several months."

"Well..." Sanniang responded casually.

Bao Cheng said again: "Her husband is also surnamed Bao. Even if I am a beast, how can I have bad thoughts? At first, I wanted to send her home. After all, it was something that I should do as a brother, but she didn't want to do it. I was forced to make a living and I delayed it for a while. This time I will definitely send her home."

Sanniang said lightly: "I admire Mr. Bao very much."

At this time, Dong said pitifully: "Bao Lang, you should stop calling me sister-in-law. Your husband and you are not relatives... In the future, if you become an official, you will just treat me as a servant. I don't want to go back..."

Bao Cheng said in surprise: "What are you saying? How can I treat my brother's wife as a slave? Who have you treated me as? Have I ever lost my etiquette these days?"

Dong cried, "You are just afraid that I will betray your luck and affect your official career! Don't refuse to admit it, you can't deceive me if you think anything in your heart!"

Bao Cheng said angrily: "What an ignorant person! I treat you with courtesy, but you speak like this! You betray your parents-in-law and run away alone, isn't it human nature?"

Dong lost control of his emotions and said loudly: "What's the reason! Do you know what kind of life I live at home? I cook for you, wash for you, and make money these days, and you don't have any affection in your heart?"

At this time, Sanniang clasped her fists lightly and said, "Bao Zhuangshi, take the liberty to ask, what is going on at Mrs. Dong's family?"

Dong stared at Bao Cheng and said, "If you want to embarrass me in front of everyone, just say!"

"Then pretend I didn't ask." Sanniang said.

Bao Cheng sighed and said, "Actually, it's no wonder that she is. After all, we are outsiders and can't control a lot of things... It's not that I have no friendship, I really can't keep you by my side, otherwise how will the villagers evaluate my Bao Cheng's character?"

Dong sneered: "Have you ever cared about other people's comments when you were in a downturn?"

The three of them walked to the streets together, and two other guards in long gowns also came over, looked at Dong, and said, "We searched for several streets separately. It turned out that Sanniang had found someone."

"Since Mr. Bao found someone, we have nothing to do. Let's say goodbye. I have to go back and report my life." Sanniang said with her fists, "I will get the Ministry of Revenue's headquarters tomorrow."

Bao Cheng replied, "Okay, I'll send it away soon. See you tomorrow morning."
