Chapter VIII Setting Fire

The neighbors on the entire street woke up. When they saw the back door of the He family opened, they looked at it and listened.

"Wuwuwu! I didn't seduce your husband! I asked Brother Zhang to do the job! I gave him some money! If you don't believe me, please ask him!" He Xiu was beaten by An and struggled to get up from the ground. Relying on his fat body, he overturned the two women who were pressing her and stumbled to Aunt Du.

"What did you give him money?! You stupid little girl! No wonder you spend money every month like water! It turns out that everyone else is fat!" When Aunt Du heard He Xiu's words, she almost turned her back. She poked He Xiu's temple with her fingertips, both angry and hatred.

"Mom, it's not because the young master - my daughter wants to know about the young master, so she -" Now that things have come to this point, He Xiu dared not hide it. It's better to bribe Zhang Dachuan with money than to let outsiders misunderstand her adultery.

When Aunt Du heard He Xiu's words, her eyes rolled, she immediately sat on the ground, patted the ground and rubbed her feet and cried.

"What kind of world is this? It's right for my daughter to admire the young master, but some dog slaves rely on others to ask for bribes but want to be flirted with my daughter! This will ruin my daughter's reputation! I am the one who should report to the official!"

After making a flip of the black and white words, An immediately jumped up with anger. An thud and rushed over and fought with Aunt Du.

"You are still crying for justice! You are still crying for justice! Whoever is blind will be flirting with your daughter! It is obviously your old daughter who is going to blame! Look at me not tearing your stinky mouth today!"

An was scolded and wrestled with Aunt Du. He Xiu wanted to help his mother, but was attacked by two mothers from left to right. The noise in the yard became louder and louder, and even the county government was alarmed. After all, one side was the He family with some prestige and status in the county, and the other side involved the Nian family, the richest man in the county. When the sleepy county magistrate arrived with the others, Aunt Du and He Xiu were beaten beyond recognition, and An was also scratched several times by Aunt Du on his face.

"This - alas, I'll send someone to the city to find Mr. He back immediately! Our Baishan County has always been simple and upright in the people. How can we tolerate such dirty things? Go quickly! Don't delay!"

When Linghu Manyue heard the county magistrate's words, she curled the corners of her lips and fell asleep with satisfaction in her face wrapped in a quilt.

The county master sent someone to invite Mr. He, and it took three days to go back and forth. During these three days, Aunt Du and He Xiu did not go out of the gate and thought about countermeasures. They thought about how to explain to Mr. He when they came back, so they didn't care about the full moon and did not dare to make any more noise at this critical moment.

During the three days of the full moon, I prepared food on time and brought it to them every day, washed the clothes and dried them, and cleaned them inside and outside the yard. Aunt Du couldn't pick out her thorns, and finally didn't cause trouble for her in the past three days.

In the evening, the full moon was cooking in the kitchen. Just now, when the county magistrate told me, Mr. He had arrived at the county government office and was rushing towards this side.

The full moon has already planned everything.

After cutting the vegetables, burning the fire, I grabbed a handful of straw and sprinkled it on the ground. The spark of the straw ignited the wood chips and firewood branches scattered on the ground. Seeing that the flames were getting bigger and bigger, the moon wiped a handful of black and gray on the edge of the pot and wiped it on her face. She grabbed a handful of firewood in her hand, turned around and ran out of the kitchen.

A white and translucent little face was covered with dirty pot ash, but the ink pupils seemed even more distinct.
