Chapter fifty-six vague clues

After dinner, the family went to bed early. In order to save lamp oil, they asked us to put out the oil lamp early.

This village doesn’t even have electricity!

After the oil lamp was extinguished, the originally dark room became even darker. Fortunately, at night in the mountain village, the moonlight was exceptionally bright. After getting used to it for a while, I could still see things in the room clearly with the moonlight shining through the window.

Suppressing a lot of questions, I really want to talk to Ling Ruxue. I don't think she has any need to hide anything from me. If I ask, she should answer it, right?

But the problem is that this bark house has no soundproofing effect at all. Laishun’s coughing and children talking in low voices can be heard from next door, plus the sound of Laishun’s wife scolding her children. How can I speak easily?

Go ask Ling Ruxue this? I'm afraid it won't be good if they hear it.

Ling Ruxue must be sleeping in another bed. It was extremely quiet. At least I couldn't hear any movement. Just when I was hesitating whether to go over and talk to her in a low voice, I heard someone coming from the outer room.

He stopped coughing, and through me I heard his footsteps, walking towards our house.

Could it be that Lai Shun had evil intentions? I adjusted my posture and my whole body was in a state of readiness. Speaking of fighting, I have practiced martial arts since I was a child. I can fight 5 Lai Shun with no problem. I can

We can't let him hurt Hui Gener and Ruxue.

But Laishun obviously had no intention of coming in. He just coughed twice at the door, and then shouted a few words towards us: "Hey, are you sleeping? Are you sleeping?"

Ruxue's side was very quiet. I don't know if she was really asleep, or if she had the same idea as me, which was not to answer and see what Laishun wanted to do. Fortunately, Hui Gen'er was really serious.

He was asleep, otherwise Lai Shun would shout like this, and this kid might just reply in a daze.

After shouting a few words, Lai Shun saw no movement from our side, turned around and left. Then I heard Lai Shun opening the door and leaving the house. Then, I heard Lai Shun's wife also getting up and chasing her out of the house.

The two of them were chatting in the yard.

I don't know if it's because of curiosity, or if I'm born with a '38' nature, but I just couldn't help but quietly roll over and get up, and then I touched the bottom of the window, wanting to hear what they had to say.

But as soon as I walked under the window, I saw a dark figure squatting there. It startled me and I thought I had encountered a ghost. I thought to myself, am I really a Taoist priest? I encounter ghosts wherever I go. But when I looked carefully, I saw that I was a Taoist priest.

I found Ling Ruxue squatting there, moving faster than me.

I felt happy, it turns out that this girl also has a "three-eight" nature? At least she is much cuter like this than the one who is aloof and cold to the point of having no emotions.

When she saw me coming, she moved a little and gave me a seat. I smiled at her and said to her: "So you are also so 'three-eight'?"

Ling Ruxue didn't even look at it, she just said: "I'm not too sure about this village. I just heard vague words from the great witch. Maybe I can learn something."

After saying that, she gave me a 'shh' gesture, and I couldn't say anything else.

But I have to sigh, every move of this woman is so moving in my eyes. Perhaps, she is really too calm on weekdays, so a little bit of emotion or a little bit of action seems particularly moving.

Leaning under the window, I could hear the movement outside more clearly. I heard Laishun's wife yelling at Laishun: "Do you want to go to the town to drink and eat meat alone, and then find a wild cat (Miss)? Money for you."

You have to hand over at least half."

"I'll give you fifty at most. I brought the person here and the money was given to me. Why should you share half of it? If I don't go find the wild cat, why am I facing you, an old woman, every day?"

"You're talking about my old woman? How can you be so good? You"

Their conversation was almost entirely a sterile quarrel, mixed with the sound of coughing, and the reason was because of the hundreds of dollars I threw out.

This made me sigh, what kind of couple are they? They are arguing like this over a few hundred dollars. And from their words, I can clearly feel that there is no emotion between them at all, they just live together.

Just when I was bored and ready to go back to sleep, I suddenly heard Lai Shun yell: "I don't care, I just can't give you the money! I've already started to have a seizure, and I won't live much longer. Anyway, there are

I'm drunk today, so get out of here."

Then, I heard the sound of two people fighting, and then I heard a "thud" sound, like the sound of someone falling to the ground, which made me couldn't help but look up.

Under the moonlight, I could see clearly. It turned out that Lai Shun's wife was kicked to the ground by Lai Shun, and then Lai Shun went out cursing. I could vaguely hear him cursing someone who wanted me to die. I'm afraid of that.

, let’s go gamble first, then go to town tomorrow or something like that.

I was shocked inside, and similarly, I saw a hint of shock and intolerance in the eyes of Ling Ruxue beside me.

The people in this village are so poor that they even have a gambling house, which shows how depraved and hopeless their life is. I seem to have heard some clues from Li Shun's words, but I can't quite grasp them, but

Ruxue must have known something clearly.

Before I could whisper anything, I heard the sound of a child getting up and going out next door. I poked my head out to look, and saw a little boy and that very cute little girl going out.

I have some impression of that little boy, because I always feel that Laishun’s wife takes special care of him. Not only does she give him big potatoes, she even gives him two extra bones in the broth. I don’t know if I am overthinking it.

Well, I always feel that that little boy is the only child whose facial features are somewhat similar to those of these two couples.

The little girl rushed to Lai Shun's side first, calling her mother not to cry, but she pushed her away and had to stand aside pitifully. However, the little boy was held in her arms by Lai Shun's daughter-in-law.

, said: "Mom has no other hope. I just hope that you can go to the village and live a good life, which is better than being a piglet in this village."

"The people in the village are so cruel, mom." The little girl couldn't help but said something nearby, but Laishun's wife pushed her and said, "What do you know? You will never be able to go there in your life.

Take the fate of the pigs and go back to sleep."

After saying that, Laishun's wife stopped crying, picked up something from the ground, and then led her two children back to the house cursing equally. I noticed that what she picked up was actually two 10-yuan notes, and she said

In the end, Lai Shun still threw her twenty yuan. As for her scoldings, they were a bit unpleasant. They were all about how it would be better to die early, die early and be born early. If you die, you will be free, and she also spent the money.

Heartless or something like that.

After that, there was the sound of entering the house and lying down. After a long time, there was no sound from there.

But Ling Ruxue and I both squatted under the window and didn't move for a long time. It was probably that both of us were shocked by what the other said and needed to digest it before we could think normally.

I really wanted to discuss something with Ruxue, but when the words came to my mouth, I still felt that I didn’t dare to accept them, so the two of us didn’t say anything, we just stayed quietly for a while, and then went back to bed.

Early the next morning, we got up and set off, but of course we didn't see Laishun. As he said, if you have money, you have to enjoy it, and he wouldn't come back so soon. I don't know what my heart was, but I still came quietly.

Shun's wife stuffed her with 500 yuan.

I said to her: "It's not for you, it's for the children. If you treat the children better, it will also accumulate virtues for you in your next life. You don't want your next life to be as miserable as this one, right?"

Laishun's daughter-in-law was originally overjoyed when she saw this huge sum of money. But after listening to my words, she looked at me as if she was in danger and said, "What do you know?"

I actually didn’t know anything, but just because I wanted the money to be used for the children, I pretended to be sophisticated and said: "You don’t need to ask me what I know. You just need to know that the three of us are going to the village.

Just the guests of the village are fine. The money, you listen to me, is best spent on the children."

After saying that, I left. I found that Ling Ruxue had been staring at me, and she probably saw and heard my performance!

I held Hui Gen'er's hand and walked side by side with her on the road. I said: "You asked me not to ask anything and not care about anything. I finally couldn't help but take care of it. You don't blame me, do you?"

She gently pulled back her hair that was blown by the wind by her ears, and then said softly: "If it were me, I might tell that woman that I am a very important guest in the village. If I knew that the money was gone,

If you use it on the children, I will guarantee that your son will not be able to enter the village and will have to stay in this village for the rest of his life. If you don't believe me, you bet."

When I heard this, I was shocked. I turned around and looked at the calm woman in front of me. I thought it was too cruel. If I hit the snake within seven inches, I would capture the thief first. Capture the king first. She is a hundred times more powerful than me.

"Then why don't you say it?"
