Chapter 187 Problems with the Earth
After gathering, Lu Songli and his group entered Liaoxi County directly.
The towns here have the unique scenery of a small northern border town, but you can clearly feel that the atmosphere is very tense.
In fact, they had this feeling after entering Youbeiping County. When the locals first saw their group of strangers, they were very alert at first, and when they discovered the complexion of their skin, they would relax as soon as possible.
Go down.
Xu Zheng and his team went to inquire about the clothes of officials, and then the old man trembledly told them the reason.
Last year, these cities and counties bordering the Xianbei were tragically ravaged.
Because the Xianbei goes south to plunder the supplies of the people of Dali in winter, this is a drama that is almost performed every year. There are wars here every year, and the Xianbei will fight until it is almost snowing before withdrawing its troops.
Therefore, every autumn, the people here are used to staying behind closed doors.
They could see so many people coming out to play at this time, because the Xianbei withdraws troops early last year and the spring plows are almost spring, so people are brave enough to come out to play.
In fact, the Xianbei withdraws troops early and has something to do with the Qin family.
Last year, Qin Yue and Qin General Qin were killed and directly destroyed the Qiang and Hu tribes, which severely shocked the Xianbei tribe. Affected by the war situation in the northern border, the Xianbei withdraws troops early, which makes Youzhou, Liaoxi and Liaodong.
The people in the two counties and other places had a stable year.
The Qin family has been garrisoning the northern border. When they heard these news, everyone except Qin's mother and Lu Songli had no feelings. The children were newborn calfs and were not afraid of tigers, and they knew that there were other cousins living in the northern border. This was the case.
Life is a little curious.
Qin's mother has been living in Chang'an City due to her physical reasons.
Lu Songli has been in a peaceful era in later generations and has never experienced wars or wars personally. In later generations, the murder rate per 10,000 people in China was 0.7, and the public security was better than that of the United States. Therefore, when Lu Songli heard these things, he frowned and frowned.
It’s really insecure to live in such an environment. Change must be changed!
Xu Zheng also inquired about the price of houses and fields here is half cheaper than Chang'an.
As soon as they arrived in a village in Liucheng, they saw more than a dozen villagers chasing a young man in his twenties with kitchen knives, hoes, sticks and other objects.
The young man was seriously injured, with his head injured, blood flowing down, and his legs may have been injured, causing him to walk limp.
A young woman protected the half-unconscious man and shouted at the visitor, "Stop! He is my cousin, not an adulterer! Mother-in-law, husband, you guys talk!"
Qin Sheng saw the injured man's face slightly changed and he was about to step forward, but Lu Songli quickly grabbed him.
"What's wrong?" she asked in a low voice.
"Save him!"
"reason?"
"Longcheng." Qin Sheng whispered two words.
Lu Songli understood in a flash that this person was related to the hundred acres of land in Longcheng!
She has consulted the geography. Liucheng is an important town in the northeast. Longcheng is located north of Liucheng and west of Longshan. It is indeed not far from here.
Lu Songli looked at the man and woman who were chased by everyone.
The villagers opposite also found Lu Songli and his group.
An old woman with a mean appearance glanced at them, "Don't worry about these foreigners, catch the adulterer first!"
But the young woman asked for help from Lu Songli and the others, "A kind stranger, please save my cousin!"
Qi Zhenniang protected her cousin tightly. She dared not think that her only relative, Cousin, came to preside over justice for her, but was beaten by her husband's family. Now her mother-in-law and the others are still resolute. If something happens to her cousin.
, She is bound to blame for her death.
The mean old woman's face changed immediately, "Foreigner, I advise you to stop meddling in other people's business!"
People from the same village advised him, "Old Mrs. Ma, otherwise let it go, just teach me a lesson."
The person who said this was quickly scolded by Mrs. Ma, "Bah, you are standing and talking, don't hurt your back. Is it easy for our Ma family to marry a wife? Is it necessary to give him one if you dare to steal my Ma family's wife.
No lessons!”
People from the same village muttered, it is not easy for you to marry a wife at Lao Ma's family, but you didn't see you marrying a wife.
At this time, the young woman shouted at her husband, an honest man, "Ma Zhongping, tell me, why do I want to be with you and live with you? I have nothing to do with my cousin!"
"I tell you, I've had enough of it over the years."
"Lian'er is our only daughter. The doctor said that her ear disease can be cured. As long as we save enough money to treat her before the age of three."
"My daughter wants to treat her illness, but her parents-in-law doesn't support her at all, so I can bear it."
"I work hard every year, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and I can't bear to eat and wear what I can't bear to wear. For my daughter, I'm willing."
"Every time you save a little money, your mother will come to search it. Lian'er is eight years old now and has not been cured yet!"
"Your mother said that she should take away the money we earned together and respect the elders. OK, I admit it. But why did she still take it away when my cousin and I borrowed thirty taels?"
"Since you can't protect your wife or daughter, what's wrong with me and you?"
After ten years, Qi Zhenniang saw clearly that this man was unreliable. As long as she was still in this family, her daughter would never be cured.
Old Mrs. Ma: "Bah, it sounds nice. You obviously dislike the poor and the rich, and then you have an affair with your cousin. You want to remarry your cousin after separation, don't think so!"
The young daughter-in-law of the Ma family: "Sister-in-law, you misunderstood. It's right for my mother to take some money from you, but she is also for your own good. She has given you medicine for the money and wants you to get pregnant after you have replenished your health.
”
"Yes, I'm taking medicine for us. I'll take five taels of silver and get us cheap medicine for five cents."
Ma Zhongping said authentically, "Zhengniang, don't listen to the doctor's tricks. Lian'er's illness cannot be cured at all."
Qi Zhenniang: "Even if I can't cure it, I'm willing to spend the money on my daughter! Instead of wasting it on you, a big family!"
Old Mrs. Ma began to yell, "My son, it's amazing, your wife is crazy for a adulterer. She really wants to abandon you and this family for the sake of the adulterer.
It’s all an excuse to say that you treat your daughter!”
"My mother is right, you just despise the poor and love the rich!" Ma Zhongping said with red eyes. He thought that it was indeed after his wife, his cousin, became rich, that his wife frequently thought about divorce.
Everyone heard that things were clear and clear now.
Lu Songli looked coldly at Ma Zhongping's face with a flushed face and her breasts exposed, showing her breasts and looked crazy. Ma's mother kept talking to stimulate him.
Qin Sheng just told Lu Songli that the injured man was named Meng Yun, who was once a soldier he led, and returned home due to injury. The 100 hectares of land was entrusted to him for care.
There is no one in Meng Yun’s family, only one cousin and relatives.
The other party was afraid that Meng Yun was very clear about the situation, and was afraid that he would be so angry that he was extremely fed.
She never fears the utmost maliciousness of human nature.
The mother of Ma, who is greedy for money, saw the rich Meng Yun coming to talk to her daughter-in-law about the relationship. The first thing she shouldn't be the lion who asked for money, and then held her granddaughter to let her go slowly in the future.
Is it?
Even if Zhenniang insists on taking her daughter away and fails to make a plan in the end, she will ask for another sum of money. This is her normal reaction.
Instead of doing this now, it is like insisting on holding the name of adulterer on Meng Yun's head, and then stimulating his eldest son every sentence, as if he wanted to induce him to kill the adulterer.
"Madam Six, are you going to save someone?" Xue Xu squeezed to Lu Songli at some point.
"Um."
"I'll do it, how can you do this little thing?"
"Okay, I'm sorry, Mr. Xue."
After the two of them said a few words, Ma Zhongping was already so provoked by his mother.
"I tell you Qi Zhenniang, you were my Ma Zhongping's wife in her life, and I was my Ma Zhongping's ghost in her life! No man can take you away from me!" Ma Zhongping held a stick and said harsh words.
While coming to the two of them, he raised his hammer and was about to hit Meng Yun's head.
Meng Yun was already half-deathed. Qi Zhenniang was protecting her cousin tightly, but was forced to pull away by Old Lady Ma. Old Lady Ma grabbed his daughter-in-law's hand tightly and looked at this scene excitedly.
However, the hammer that Ma Zhongping waved was suppressed by Hu Guangcong.
