Lei Hongqi's heart broke when he heard what happened to his son.
Qiao Fangfang sat beside her and gently stroked her back to calm her down, "Mom, what's going on?
Everything was fine for so many years, how come he suddenly became so tough?
Not only did he kill the chickens at home and eat them, but he also dared to cause trouble in Lijiagou. He beat Jianguo and killed pigs to sell. Is this a rebellion to the heavens? ”
Lei Hongyan had a face full of resentment, "How should I know what happened?
It's inexplicable. Maybe his previous honest appearance was just an act.
These two brothers appear to be honest on the surface, but in fact, their hearts are like poisonous snakes, ready to bite you at any time. ”
"Humph, after all these years, we finally found them a chance!"
Qiao Fangfang didn't think so. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Mom, tell me exactly what happened in the past two days."
Lei Hongqi was stunned. Her daughter was smart, so she told her everything that had happened in the past two days.
Qiao Fangfang quickly grasped the key point of the matter.
"Daya, it's Daya."
"Mom, Daya was involved in all these things. It's obvious that the eldest and second sons were instigated by her!
You see, the last time I told you about that family, you hesitated, saying that she was still young.
He is already sixteen years old, or seventeen in terms of age. How can he be young?
In our countryside, not only do people get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen, there are also women who give birth to children at the age of sixteen or seventeen.
You just have a kind heart, and now you've suffered a great loss, right? ”
Lei Hongqi drooped her shoulders and said nothing. Qiao Fangfang had come to her parents' home to talk to her before.
The Chen family, who run a coffin shop in the town, is looking for a match for their 22-year-old son Chen Sheng and is willing to pay a dowry of three hundred thousand.
That Chen Sheng...
His family was well off, but I heard that when his mother was pregnant with him, she ate rabbit meat out of greed, so he was born like a monster.
The entire upper lip and nose are cracked, which looked scary when he was young. When he grew up, his teeth all turned upwards to his nose, which looked even scarier.
The Chen family had two sons. The other one died while bathing in the Xi River when he was ten years old. So the family relied on this only son to carry on the family line. His family doted on him and raised him to be arrogant and bad-tempered.
I heard that he even dared to beat his own mother.
Qiao Fangfang advised, "Mom, three hundred yuan is just a few dollars. What can we have left after working so hard for a whole year?
Besides, the temporary worker that Dannian hired for Jianguo must have almost emptied out the family’s money, right?
Jianguo is about to get married. Given the current situation, I guess you may not be able to keep the eldest and second sons.
It is better to minimize the losses and keep the benefits in your own hands! ”
Lei Hongqi's eyes flashed with calculation, "Three taels, I can sell my two pigs for more than a tael, and there is also the abundant food at home!"
Qiao Fangfang rolled her eyes and realized that her mother thought it was too little.
"Mom, isn't this easy? After we take the money, we can directly ask the Chen family to come over and arrest the person. If the eldest and second sons can't bear to part with their daughter, won't they take out the money in their pockets again?
By then, the money will be in your hands, and we will still accept the betrothal gift.
As long as Qiao Daya gets married, you can do whatever you want with those two fools. ”
Lei Hongqi let out a long sigh, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, "Since they can't live a good life, don't blame me for being cruel."
…….
When Qiao Jiuwang got home, there was no one at home. It was so quiet that it didn't feel like a home.
She walked through the yard, looked at the empty chicken coop and pig pen, frowned and pursed her lips.
He came here to pack up and get some clothes to change. Qiao Jianguo would have to receive intravenous drips for several days, and he also had a bone injury, so it was not convenient for him to come here, and he would have to stay in the hospital for several days.
After entering the room, Qiao Jiuwang remembered that Qiao Jianguo said that the family’s food had also been sold by Tuodong, so he set up the ladder and climbed up to the attic.
At the entrance of the granary which was not closed, a few mice heard the noise and were so scared that they swung their four short legs around, leaving afterimages.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Qiao Jiuwang's already tense face was covered with frost.
After climbing up the ladder and checking the granary, Qiao Jiuwang was so excited that he almost vomited blood.
I saw that the half-storey millet was only as thick as a fist at the bottom of the warehouse. The millet and soybeans were gone, and only a few bags of corn and sweet potatoes were left.
"Beast...beast, prodigal, prodigal!!!"
After tying up the sacks and closing the warehouse door, Qiao Jiuwang climbed down.
As if he thought of something, his body stiffened, and then he suddenly increased his speed and climbed downwards.
He came down from the ladder, and hurriedly lay on the ground, tilting his head to look under the bed.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that all the jars were there.
Quickly, he stood up, turned around to close the door, and then lay on the ground to move the jars under the bed out one by one.
Looking at the dust covering the wooden board of the altar lid at the innermost part, his nervous expression finally receded.
No one moved.
He still took down the things on top one by one, opened the lid and reached inside.
When he touched the oil paper bag in his memory, the expression on his face softened completely.
