"You're a troublemaker!" the village chief scolded Mrs. Shen angrily,
Mrs. Shen, on the other hand, looked indifferent and as if she had not heard anything.
"Fourth family member, since the separation documents have been signed, you should get out of the homestead of the old home as soon as possible." Yang Cuihua said domineeringly,
Jiang Ci glanced over coldly, and Yang Cuihua quickly shrank behind the table.
Jiang Ci supported Qian Guixiang and walked out the door. Shen Shuan followed immediately. Several families at the end of the village also helped move the Shen family's belongings into the ruined temple!
It was said to be something, but it was actually just a few tattered quilts, a tattered pot, and a few tattered bowls. It was no different from what they were driven out with two days ago.
But this time, about a dozen families brought over some of their own rice, flour and salt, and also helped carry all the chestnuts collected at home, so there was no shortage of food at the moment!
The autumn evening wind suddenly picked up, and the cold wind in the ruined temple made everyone shiver!
Shen Dashan and Qian Guixiang were silent, while Shen Shuan stood tall and tall at the entrance of the temple, with his back to everyone, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking!
Shen Yunhe and Shen Shuxuan are young, but they also vaguely know that they seem to have no home again, and they look a little hesitant!
Jiang Ci was not a person who was good at comforting, so he silently went out to find stones to set up the pot, and made a pot of sweet millet and chestnut porridge! Everyone held the bowl in their hands and felt the rare warmth!
After drinking, Shen Shuan and Shen Yunhe fell asleep cuddling with Shen Dashan and Qian Guixiang!
But Jiang Ci took advantage of the night and came to Lao Shen's house!
Because it was a red brick wall, Jiang Ci climbed up the wall directly, climbed onto their roof, and lifted up a tile with very light movements.
I saw Old Mrs. Shen and Old Man Shen with their backs to each other, snoring loudly!
Jiang Ci took out a tael of silver from the space and threw it towards Old Shen!
Old Shen, who was snoring, suddenly felt a pain in his forehead. He stood up from the bed with a grin on his face, and saw the silver next to him.
Suddenly he didn't even care about the wound on his forehead. He quickly put the money in his hand and looked around. When he found that his old lady was sleeping soundly, he tiptoed to the end of the bed.
I took out a wooden box from the wall at the end of the bed and carefully put the money in!
Then he quietly returned to his bed, and after a while, the snoring started again!
Jiang Ci raised her eyebrows. The financial power of the old Shen family was in the hands of Mrs. Shen, but Old Shen was so good at hiding money. It looked like that place was a small private treasury! It seemed that her guess was indeed right!
Mrs. Shen cannot steal money for the time being, otherwise her family will immediately become the first suspect!
But she has to avenge her ten taels of silver, so let's create opportunities for them and let them bite each other!
Jiang Ci jumped into the house sideways from the window and easily found the place where Old Shen had hidden his money. Jiang Ci opened it and saw that there were zeros and zeros inside. Adding his own one tael of silver, there were actually six taels in the box. A lot of money, all of it was taken into my own hands with a smile!
After that, he restored the wall to its original state and jumped out of the window lightly. When he was about to leave, he found a familiar figure busy with a pile of straw with an expressionless face.
Jiang Ci secretly yelled, "This kid has a bit of an antisocial personality. He even made the original owner into a human pig."
It's strange that Mrs. Shen and his family can tolerate this bullying!
Jiang Ci went up and sprinkled a handful of medicine powder in front of the man. The man was so weak that he was about to fall down. Jiang Ci picked up his body and ran away. When he saw that he had reached a remote place, Jiang Ci stopped.
Putting the man on the stone, Jiang Ci hated the iron and said, "What are you doing with all the straw?"
Shen Shuxuan stood up slightly from the stone with a mocking look on his face: "Didn't you already guess it all?"
Jiang Ci was stunned, looking at the man's calm look. Who would have thought that this was the murderer who was about to burn others to death: "Brother, that's not how things happened! When Mrs. Shen's family died, we just had trouble with them. We will immediately become the main target of suspicion!"
"So what? I won't leave any evidence for them!" The man's deep eyes were filled with blood, like fireworks in the sky, exuding the same danger as the abyss.
"You won't leave any evidence for them, but don't you also have no evidence to prove that you didn't burn their family to death? Anyway, as long as there is this stain, your family will never have a smooth life in the future! Not only the people in the village have With this muttering, even your path to the scientific examination may be blocked!"
"Our family? Are you not our family?" The man's tone suddenly became sharp, his eyes as cold as thin blades.
"Oh, that's not the point! Anyway, don't you think it's too easy to let a family like them die? What's the point of death? We want their family to live and suffer, isn't it interesting?"
"Live and suffer?" The man rubbed these words carefully, as if he had never thought about the meaning of these four words, and there was a hint of interest in his tone.
"Well! Sometimes life is more painful than death!" Seeing that the man was persuaded,
Jiang Ci also relaxed his hands and crossed his chest, and sat on the nearby stone. Only then did he realize that there was a stream next to him, and the water only vaguely covered the person's ankles.
The moonlight pours down, and almost all the crabs in the water are clearly distinguishable.
Jiang Ci's eyes lit up. It's autumn now, and it's the time when crabs are plump.
In ancient times, crabs had less meat and more shells, so almost only the poor at home who wanted to eat some minced meat all year round would pick them up to eat. So now, crabs are everywhere in the creek!
In Jiang Ci's eyes, these are all delicacies: spicy crab, drunken crab, steamed crab, braised crab, boiled crab...
And although crabs are flexible during the day and are not easy to be caught, at night, crabs seem to be "blind" and move slowly. Now is a good time to catch crabs.
I wove a simple flower basket with the grass by the stream. When I was looking for grass to weave the flower basket, I also saw a few red pine trees.
Jiang Ci was delighted. Not only could this red pine tree be used to make torches, but its fruit, pine nuts, was also an extremely delicious nut. He silently wrote down this place, and then he broke off a red pine branch and brought it back.
"Huo Zhezi!" Jiang Ci said towards Shen Shuxuan!
Since this person came here to set fire, he should have a fire seal on his body, right?
Shen Shuxuan glanced at Jiang Ci, and then threw a tube-shaped object to Jiang Ci.
Jiang Ci took the torch and blew it, sparks suddenly appeared. After lighting the torch, Jiang Ci easily put the torch into his belt.
"Your eyes are only occasionally blurred now. You shouldn't be able to catch crabs that move slowly at night, right?"
"What are you catching this for?"
"Eat it! Use dogwood to make spicy crabs, or make crab meat porridge in the morning, both are delicious!" Jiang Ci said while turning over the stones under his feet, and he found exactly what he found under almost every stone. two or three crabs,
Make Jiang Ci happy!
And Shen Shuxuan's movements are also extremely agile,
So after a while, the two of them filled a basket full of crabs.
Seeing that the man had a good attitude, Jiang Ci was in a good mood and enlightened:
