Chapter VIII Breaking the Leg of the Gambler's Son (8)
Mrs. Liu was not beautiful when she was young, but she was more docile and well-behaved. Her slightly curved eyebrows were very pleasing to the eye, making people want to take a second look at her once they took one look at her.
Therefore, when she decided to commit herself to Rong Li, I don't know how many young people secretly regretted that such a good opportunity should be given to a cripple. If they had known that the life-saving grace would be repaid in this way, they would have rushed to save people at that time.
Already.
As she gets older, there is a touch of sadness in Liu's eyebrows that cannot be removed, and she has lost the vitality of her youth. However, when people look at her, she still has a subtle feeling of pity for her, which makes people feel distressed.
At this moment, she had lost her usual low eyebrows and her eyes were full of determination. She looked like Rong Li had some charm, and those who didn't know thought that Rong Li was back.
The village chief looked at Mrs. Liu, who was very different from the past, and had an ominous premonition in his heart. He was about to say something, but the next moment, Mrs. Liu's actions confirmed the ominous feeling.
Mrs. Liu, who was wearing a red wedding dress with a touch of powder, walked up to the village chief and knelt down upright. The village chief was so frightened that she quickly asked her eldest daughter-in-law to help her up, "Sister, what are you doing?"
Ms. Liu, however, was resolute and pushed away the hand that was trying to help her up. She raised her eyes and said to the village chief: "Brother, you and Brother Rong have known each other for many years. Brother Rong has always treated you as his own brother. I am his wife."
, naturally I can call you brother."
"Now that Brother Rong is not here, as the eldest brother, you naturally have the right to make the decision regarding the affairs of the Rong family. Brother Rong and I are husband and wife, and we should live and die together. Before he left, he asked me to wait for him, and I waited. No matter who is waiting is alive.
Whether he is alive or dead, I am his wife, and I should be by his side and never leave him."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Liu's face showed a look of determination, which showed the freedom and ease of not caring about life and death.
Everyone looked at Ms. Liu's appearance and thought about the meaning of her words. They couldn't help but be shocked. She wanted to sacrifice her husband?
"Big girls are not allowed..." The village chief's expression changed. While asking the eldest daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law to help Ms. Liu up, he spoke out Rong Li's instructions before entering the mountain as if he had burned his lips.
"Ah Rong said that if he can't come back, you can sell the Rong family's house and remarry. As for Yaozu, sell the land to pay off the debt and redeem the jade pendant. Then Yaozu will live on his own."
"You not only call me brother, but also say that I, as the eldest brother, have the right to make the decision on the affairs of the Rong family. Then you should listen to my advice. It is better to die than to live. You are not doing it for anything else but for Ah Rong's wishes.
You should live a good life."
The village chief's two daughters-in-law were now helping Mrs. Liu up forcefully. Mrs. Liu did not insist on kneeling anymore. She just looked at the village chief's face and said, "I have made up my mind, and I hope my brother will make it happen!"
"You, you..." The village chief was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. For a moment, he didn't know what to say to persuade Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu smiled and said softly: "After Brother Rong and I left, I hoped that for the sake of our long relationship with Brother Rong, I would give my ancestor a bowl of rice and not let him starve to death."
"I would like to thank my brother here." After saying this, Ms. Liu kowtowed to the village chief.
The village chief hurriedly avoided it. The people around him looked at me and me, and they were silent for a while. Daughters-in-law from other families either became widows or remarried after their husbands died. Very few died of their husbands. Such was the case with Mrs. Liu, so affectionate
Really profound.
After being awakened by the noise outside, Honorzu was shocked when he heard what Liu said clearly. He couldn't care about anything. He struggled out of bed, used both hands to crawl out, and cried while crawling.
"Mom, don't die, mother, don't leave me..." Gloryzu cried. He would be so regretful that his intestines would turn green. If he had known that playing dice would kill his parents, he would have killed him at that time.
It's time to chop off your hands.
Hearing the cry of Honorable Ancestor, Mrs. Liu turned around and glanced at him with some reluctance. After taking a deep breath, she turned her head away cruelly, saying nothing.
"Mom, mother, I know I was wrong, I was really wrong, don't die, please..." Honorzu climbed into the courtyard, and happened to see his mother turning her head away cruelly. He was stunned for a long time.
, cried again.
Ancestor Glory cried heartbrokenly, but Madam Liu looked determined.
The village chief looked very sad. He opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't.
The villagers were red-eyed and wanted to persuade Ms. Liu again, but they didn't know how to do so. What's more, looking at Ms. Liu's appearance, they just stopped her this time, how could they stop her next time?
While the atmosphere in the Rong family was depressed, the atmosphere in the town became restless because everyone was impatient to wait.
The shopkeeper looked regretful. He was still looking forward to seeing the old man from the Rong family come, but unfortunately, the veteran was getting old after all.
The owner of the gambling house walked out at this time. After much thought, he decided to leave a way for Ancestor Glory to survive, just as a sign of respect for a veteran who had killed his enemies.
Of course, this is also related to General Tu. If the Rong family's affairs are done well, there is no guarantee that people will not think that the gambling house dares to step on the face of General Tu. It depends on the owner of the dog.
Just when everyone was talking, a commotion suddenly broke out in the quiet mountain. The beasts that should have been sleeping were trembling in their nests, not daring to breathe.
I saw Rong Li, who was in a state of embarrassment, holding a knife in one hand and holding the newly twisted straw rope in the other, walking down the mountain step by step.
A large wooden board was tied to the other end of the straw rope. On the wooden board was a black-and-yellow striped tiger that refused to stare at death.
"I'm still not prepared enough. If I had known better, I should have brought the straw rope from home with the cart, so that I wouldn't have wasted time in the mountains." Rong Li tightened his grip on the straw rope, looked back at the tiger, and said softly.
The 111 system complained unceremoniously: "It's not your fault. You can obviously do it by spending some points. You have to do it yourself. If you have the time to rub the rope, you should be at home now."
With the blue sky and white clouds above his head, Rong Li smiled and said, "What's wrong with being stingy? If I hadn't been stingy and never spent half a point on a task, I wouldn't have been able to accumulate enough points for job transfer so quickly, and I also brought you along with me."
"
"Haha, thank you very much." The 111 system smiled nonchalantly.
Rong Li didn't care. He knew that the 111 system was frightened by the dangerous situation he was in when he was hunting tigers, so he was sarcastic and wanted to provoke him to redeem some golden fingers to save his life. Unfortunately, he was used to it and was too lazy to change it.
Already.
Rong Li has always believed in the principle that it is better to rely on oneself than relying on mountains and seas. Even if the golden finger obtained by using points is permanent, it is unreliable. The most reliable thing is to control the strength step by step.
He has done so many tasks, and every time he relied on his own ability, which is one of the reasons why he became a gold medal employee.
Speaking of which, this tiger was really powerful and almost killed him several times. Fortunately, the original body was in good health, his soul was well integrated, and he used many life-saving tricks, and he was able to capture the tiger without any danger.
Counting the time, Rong Li strode towards Rong's house without further delay.
Rong Li walked to the foot of the mountain, only to find that there was no one in the field. Although it was a busy time for farming, there were not even half a person in sight. Where had this person gone?
When Rong Li dragged Tiger all the way to Rong's house, he was surprised to find that not to mention the fields, the courtyard gates of every house were empty. What big thing had happened?
Looking again, Rong Li suddenly realized, oh, it turned out that the villagers were surrounding his house.
The villagers standing on the outermost edge were wiping away tears. Suddenly they felt something was wrong. They turned around subconsciously. When they saw the scene behind them clearly, they opened their mouths in surprise and shouted, "Oh, mother..."
"Why are you calling me mother?" The person next to him was covering his tears with his sleeves. After being startled, he wiped his face randomly and turned around, and his eyes almost popped out.
"Uncle Rong is back alive!" A young boy who turned around boldly shouted out.
Hearing this, everyone turned around and saw the scene in front of them clearly. The village chief was so frightened that he took a big step back and sat down on the ground, trembling with his mouth open.
The village chief's third son was so frightened that he jumped on top of his eldest brother, and the others immediately hid behind him.
However, the village chief's eldest daughter-in-law subconsciously stepped in front to protect her man. The third daughter-in-law, who was always fierce, hid behind the usually docile second daughter-in-law with a white face, but the second daughter-in-law also had trembling legs and feet.
