Fubao's preparations before departure



Everyone in the family unanimously agreed that Xiao Yang and Fubao would definitely run away.

And it should have been recently. After all, they sold the house and the land, and they don’t look like they are going to stay for long.

So the family took turns watching them, ready to stop them at any time.

But for the next half month, they didn't even leave the village!

Little Yang secretly went to the village entrance to find Old Wu, who was pulling the ox cart, and brought ten taels of silver to her father.

Fubao grumbled a few words in displeasure, and then Xiao Yang coaxed her into silence for a while.

Then the two of them returned home, and after that they rarely went out.

Ah Yuan squatted in the bushes diagonally opposite the gate of Fubao's house, holding his face and said worriedly:

"Are they digging holes in the house?

Ready to run straight out of the hole?"

Jiro, who came with Yuan to ambush people, thought it was impossible:

"They are not rat spirits. What kind of hole did they dig? And where does it lead to? How much effort would it take to get directly to the village entrance?

Besides, they don’t know that we already know about it, so if they leave early, they won’t go to such great lengths to hide from us.”

Yuan used her brain to think for a while and said:

“It seems so, but why don’t they leave?

Everything that can be sold has been sold... Wait!!

They are not planning to sell my second uncle for money!"

A Yuan thought of a possibility, and suddenly sat up, staring at Erlang with wide eyes in shock.

Jiro: ...

Erlang wanted to object, but then he thought about his mother's attitude, thinking that she would agree to sever ties with her own sons just to save five taels of silver.

It's not impossible for her to sell her husband for a few dollars to get travel money!

"Isn't she waiting for her fourth uncle to bring the human traffickers?" Erlang muttered to himself.

Yuan lifted his face again and muttered:

"Second Uncle is so old that he is not worth much. If we want to sell him, we can only sell him to a mine, right?"

Erlang also sighed: "It won't sell for much, why would she let it go even for such a small amount of money!"

Niu Wa, who was following behind quietly, said, "No matter how small a sparrow is, it's still meat!"

Jiro looked at him warily:

"Sparrows are meat! You can't eat fat chicks, don't even think about it!"

Niu Wa wiped his drool regretfully and said dissatisfiedly:

"I was talking about Second Uncle, not anything else!"

Erlang and Yuan looked at him silently. Niu Wa unhappily took out a fat chick from his arms and reluctantly put it back on Erlang's head, muttering:

"It's obviously meat!"

Fatty was jumping on Erlang's head and yelling at Niu Wa angrily, probably saying:

You steal from me again, you steal from me again, what are you doing!

A Yuan condemned righteously:

"Niu Wa, you are wrong!"

Niu Wa looked at her in confusion, shock and sadness:

"It was obviously you who started stealing the fat chicks first!

You said that no matter how small a sparrow is, it is still meat. You have taken out all the salt and flour!

If the big brother and his friends come a little late, you can put it on a stick and put it in the stove! Roast it and share it with us!

How come you have changed now? "

When Yuan saw Feichu for the first time, Dalang and the others were not there.

A Yuan loves to eat everything except the food cooked by her second aunt. How could she not be tempted by such a fat bird at first glance?

Being exposed, Yuan blinked guiltily and said shyly: "Isn't this for justice?"

Niu Wa looked at her in confusion: "Where is the justice?"

A Yuan pointed at himself with a frown:

"That makes me look righteous!"

She was being righteous. She thought that the sparrow was meat, and she said that it was wrong. If Niu Wa had been slower in exposing it, the blame would have been entirely his.

The fat bird flapped its wings angrily and flew away chirping. The chirping sounded like a curse, and it was probably full of feminine content.

Niu Wa was so angry that A Yuan, who was cheating his brother for fame, almost cried:

"You have no sense of justice at all!"

A Yuan was eager to continue learning from Grandma Zhao and make himself seem more reasonable.

But Jilang stopped them both without hesitation:

"You two together can't muster up any loyalty, so take a break.

My father is about to be sold, can you please be more like me and pretend to care for him?"

Niu Wa raped her this time, and rushed before Yuan, pretending to be a good person, admitting his mistakes and correcting them, nodded heavily and said:

"It's wrong for her to do this. No matter what, my second uncle is still a human being, and he can't be sold casually!"

"That's right! At least you have to tell grandma!"

Ah Yuan started to criticize Xiao Yang.

"Grandma raised my second uncle to this age and never told me to sell him. She just sold him when she said so, and she didn't even bother to discuss with grandma how to divide the money! This is really too much!"

Jiro: ...

Niu Wa: …

"How do you make something so irrational make sense?"

Erlang looked at Yuan with an indescribable look, his expression seemed to be saying: What's wrong with you, kid?

Ah Yuan scratched his head and looked back at the two of them blankly, trying to make amends:

"If there is no trade, Second Uncle won't be harmed?"

Yuan said this without confidence.

Niu Wa immediately disagreed with this statement:

"Whether there was a deal or not, he was hurt badly!"

It’s okay that Fu Erbai has been knocked unconscious every day recently, but he has been getting better recently.

The family thought about it and were still a little angry with him, so they came to beat him up every few days.

Fu Erbai was blindfolded and thought that the people who beat him were the bandits from Xuanfeng Mountain. He even said:

You have changed! You have become more ruthless than my own son!

After hearing this, the sons who came down from Tornado Mountain gave up trying to stop them and helped to shut their father up.

He allowed his uncles to beat him up every day, and then give him some sleeping pills to make him completely unconscious, so that after he recovered he would not be bewitched by Xiao Yang and Fubao again.

As for whether you will become stupid if you take too much medicine?

Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in the hands of God. They have managed to hold on until now even though they have lost so much luck. Wouldn't Fu Erbai, who helped Fu Bao conceal it, not hold on for a long time?

Besides, with his brain, what's the difference between being stupid and not being stupid? Maybe being stupid would make him look more adorable!

All the above reasons are the reasons why Fu Erbai has been unable to get off the kang or go out for more than a month.

Every time Erlang came to change the medicine, he could see his father's miserable condition. Now thinking back, he couldn't help but say:

"I think when he sees a human trafficker now, he thinks he is a savior from God!"

A Yuan and Niu Wa, whose own fathers participated in the beating, also lowered their heads and remained silent for a moment, feeling guilty.

Then I happily decided not to think about what my second uncle would think, and told my family about it.

Old Mrs. Yang and her friends were very happy to hear this, and they secretly spread this speculation along with the news that Young Mrs. Yang was selling her house and land.

He also revealed to the villagers intentionally or unintentionally that Fubao was leaving because he could no longer harm anyone.

But we can't let her go, otherwise she will hurt others when she goes out. This is secondary. The main thing is that we won't be able to ask for compensation for the lost luck and the victims.

There is no wall that is impenetrable. Her fourth uncle is not a tight-lipped person and many people saw him when he came.

When he left, Xiao Yang and Fubao did go out with him for a long time, mostly to the county town.

Everyone first found out that Xiao Yang had indeed gone to the county and changed the name on the house and land deeds to her fourth uncle's name.

This confirmed that she had sold the house and land. Xiao Yang's excuse that she had no money was completely untenable in front of Zhu Sihui, who had no idea of ​​her background.

The villagers would not believe the nonsense that these things were sold to cure Fu Erbai's illness.

What's more, everyone can see that every day when Xiao Yang and the others go out, or stay indoors, Dalang and the others will secretly bring medicine and other things to take care of Fu Erbai.

Even Fu Erbai's brothers had been there, but Xiao Yang and Fubao, who lived in the same courtyard, didn't even look at it.

People in Lao Fu's family also said that they were afraid of quarreling with her so they avoided her. This is how she really takes care of her useless family members and is truly righteous.

The villagers really didn't know that the old Fu family did this just to make the young Yang family look even worse.

Make the villagers believe that they have problems, and then defeat them together with the old Fu family. By the way, we can also control Fu Erbai, but this is not important.

The previous sale of the house and land was true, so naturally everyone believed that she was going to sell Fu Erbai.

Thinking about the fact that she broke off relations with Dalang and the others just to save five taels of silver, the three points became eight or nine points.

In addition, Xiao Yang suddenly sent a large sum of money back home for no apparent reason, which made it seem like she was planning to run away.

Don't talk about filial piety. She has been rich for a long time. Why was she unfilial earlier or later, but chose to be filial at this time? So she must run away!

But why would she run away for no reason?

Is there anyone outside?

The chattering group of old ladies under the big willow tree, the gossiping girls and wives in the village, and the ubiquitous A Yuan who was watching the fun, all said with certainty that she did not.

If these people say no, then she probably doesn't have any. Besides, Xiao Yang is always around Fubao, so it's not like she has time to have a mistress.

Fu Erbai was beaten, but she was not disabled. She can still recover. She is not paralyzed or disabled, so she should not have run away because of this.

After eliminating a few possibilities, the remaining ones, no matter how outrageous, are true!

Everyone had already begun to suspect it, and now it was almost confirmed.

Thinking about the past two years, the physical condition of the children in the village is indeed a bit poor, especially those children who don't have a good relationship with her...

Rumors and gradual estrangement are now a thing of the past, and this time the villagers are really starting to take it seriously.

As luck would have it, at this critical juncture, Fubao, who hadn't been out for several days, came out for a stroll again.

This time she went up mountains and down rivers, wandering around, picking up money everywhere. She really picked up money directly. When she saw a place where there was nothing, she would dig out either copper coins or silver.

The children in the village suddenly started to fall ill with minor illnesses such as colds, fevers, and sprained ankles. In the past, no one would have paid much attention to it, but this time everyone witnessed it.

Fubao picked up the copper coin, and Maodan sprained his ankle.

Fubao picked up the silver and Panghua started to have a fever.

Fubao picked up gold, but Niuwa broke his toe.

It happened very suddenly. He broke his leg while walking. Even Doctor Zhang said he had never seen such a thing.

As things went on one after another, Fubao and Xiao Yang were like digging for treasure every day, and they were filled with blessings, but the people in the village stayed away from them more and more.

Lao Fu's family felt that the time was finally ripe, and they could all work together to find a witch to burn her to death.

Either they would say that they had committed a serious crime according to the village rules and have the village head come forward, or they would go together and ask the head of the Yang family to drown her in a pond.

If you kill her like this, the government generally won't say anything or do anything.

After listening to Lao Fu's suggestion, Village Chief Mo and the elders did not say anything. They just quietly notified everyone and went to the village's public ancestral hall.

You heard it right, it is a public ancestral hall. Daxi Village is composed of families with many different surnames.

Every family has different ancestors, but not necessarily their own clans, so the ancestors of one generation built a common ancestral hall together.

To worship the ancestors of each family, the genealogy of each family is also here, starting from that generation.

So far, no one in the family has ever been very successful, but the ancestral hall and family tree have always been there, and they are renovated every year, and the courtyard is also very large.

Village chief Mo called everyone over, and also invited the old head of the village who was very old and had not been in charge for a long time, to come out to discuss a solution together.

The people of Lao Fu's family were extremely excited, and then... the smiles on their faces gradually solidified, shrank, and finally disappeared.

Everyone was indeed discussing a solution, but the direction of the solution was quite unexpected...
