The village where the third child Liu Changfa lives is called Liujiazhuang. It is said that people have lived here since the Tang Dynasty. Although they have gone through thousands of years of changes, most people in Zhuangzi still have the surname Liu. Only
Two surnames.
One surname is Zhang. I heard from the elders that he was a soldier under Li Zicheng in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. After his defeat, he came to the village incognito. He is the second most popular surname in Zhuangzi. Almost one-fifth of the people have the surname Zhang.
People.
There is also a surname named Yu. There is only one family with this surname in Zhuangzi, and it is also from outside. Older people still remember that in the 1960s, a young couple fled the famine and came to Liujiazhuang.
In that fanatical era, Liujiazhuang did not suffer much impact due to its remote location. The couple settled here. Since both husband and wife were educated, in their free time, they taught the children in the village
They are well-educated and literate, and country people are very honest and respectful to educated people. As time goes by, they treat this family as one of their own.
The couple seemed to have accepted their fate and gave birth to two sons here. Except in the 1980s, when the husband took the eldest son out to find a bride, he stayed and taught in Zhuangzi until he was 90.
In the 1990s, the first teachers of the third child, Liu Changfa, were this couple.
However, after the couple retired as private teachers, they suffered from a sudden illness in the mid-1990s. The couple passed away at the same time, which made the people in the village sigh. At that time, the whole village tried their best to
, arranged the posthumous affairs for the couple very gracefully.
Their two sons, the eldest is called Yu Ju and the second is called Yu Hao. As early as the 1980s, the two brothers married a girl from Zhuangzi and were considered the sons-in-law of Liujiazhuang. In addition to the relationship between their parents,
No one in Liujiazhuang regarded them as outsiders, and they were still related to several families.
The eldest son of the Yu family went to work outside for seven or eight years just a few months after getting married. I heard that he didn't make much money. After he came back, he worked hard at home and farmed. He was a good person.
, it’s a pity that I gave birth to a silly son later, who is now over eight or nine years old and can only giggle when meeting people.
The eldest brother, Yu Ju, has a calm personality and acts very responsible. He doesn't make any money from his part-time job. After he comes back, he works conscientiously to support the family. However, he will go out every once in a while, and the time is not short.
Sometimes I have to walk for three to five months, telling people in the village that I have found my parents' relatives in Henan and going to take a walk.
Although the life of Mr. Yu's family is not good, there is no problem in eating. The second child's character is a bit frivolous. Although he is also married, he thinks about getting something for nothing all day long and often runs to the county town.
I made a bunch of bad friends.
The case of cooking oil being stolen from the county grain and oil station this time involves Yu Lao'er, who is currently being held in the county detention center. Yu Lao'er's daughter-in-law has some relatives with the Ermao family, so they found Liu Changfa last night. Originally,
I thought that Liu Changfa, who worked in the county town, could help a little bit, but who knew that the third child was just a minor civil servant and was not qualified to participate in this matter.
"His elder brother, you have to think of a way to save the second brother. If this is sentenced, how will we two survive..."
Unlike Liu Changfa's family, which was full of joy, now Yu Ku's family was filled with mourning, and Yu Laoer's wife even stretched out her voice and began to cry and sing.
"Sister-in-law, you go back first, and I will think of a solution. It's useless to cry. Wife, please go home with your sister-in-law, take your son away with you, and stay there for the night. Don't come back."
With a smile on his face, Mr. Yu sent Mr. Yu's second daughter-in-law out who was crying.
"Then who will cook for you today?" my daughter-in-law asked before going out.
"If you're hungry, don't ask."
There was a cold light in Boss Yu's eyes, which made his wife's heart tremble. She quickly pulled her silly son and walked out with his head lowered. When he crossed the threshold, he accidentally fell.
Others don't know, but she knows better than anyone else that her husband looks like an honest man, but he is actually ruthless. The reason why her son is a fool is because he was beaten by Boss Yu when he was pregnant. That is really hell.
The fight almost prevented a miscarriage, but after the son was born, he became stupid.
It's not that Boss Yu's wife has never thought about divorce, but Boss Yu said that as long as she dared to have such thoughts, he would kill her whole family. She was so scared that she dared not mention this matter again, but as long as she didn't offend him,
Boss Yu was usually pretty good to her and her daughter, and from time to time he would give her hundreds of dollars of money he got from who knows where, for her to spend.
"Brothers from the Yu family, the second brother has gone in. You don't want to do something about it, why are you still buying meat?"
After sending his silly son and wife away, Mr. Yu wandered to the canteen in the village, took out fifty yuan and bought some cooked vegetables.
"Brother Liu, the matter of the second brother is worrying me to death, but my relatives from Henan are here, so I have to entertain them. Otherwise, wouldn't they say that our Liujiazhuang has no rules? Do you think that's right?
?”
The wry smile on Boss Yu's face makes people feel a little sympathetic at first glance.
"Yes, that's right. Don't be too impatient. You are doing your own evil. Come on, take it."
The owner of the canteen found a few newspapers, wrapped the cut cooked vegetables, and handed them to Boss Yu.
"Okay, second brother, I'll go back first, why don't you come over and have a drink too?"
Boss Yu greeted Brother Liu, and after seeing him waving his hands repeatedly, he turned around and walked back home.
Boss Yu returned home, looked around, locked the courtyard door, then unchained the wolf-dog, and then entered the room.
"Brother, we can't ignore the matter of the second child. How about I find someone to spend some money to fish him out?"
In the seemingly empty room, a voice rang out suddenly. It turned out that there was a person sitting on a chair in the corner of the room. However, this person was a little thin, about 1.5 meters tall. If he didn't pay attention,
When I looked at it, I thought it was a child.
Boss Yu didn't answer, but closed the curtains of the only window in the room, then put the cooked food in his hand on the table and said: "Guess? How to take care of it? Let us sit in too? I said
I've passed the second child many times, and if I stay here steadily for another three years, I guarantee that he will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of his life. If he doesn't listen to me as the eldest brother, what can I do to control him?"
The little man hesitated for a moment, stood up, opened the packages of cooked vegetables, and said, "But it's our business..."
As soon as he started speaking, he was interrupted by Boss Yu with a wave of his hand.
"It's nothing, but he doesn't know anything. This is good. It can help us divert our attention. Some time ago, I had a feeling that we were being targeted. But as soon as this happened, all the attention will definitely be on them.
.
As long as we succeed quickly, no one will be able to trace me. By then, whether we want to stay or leave, we will be able to move forward and retreat freely. After the brothers finish this job, even if they want to go abroad, there will be no problem."
At this time, Boss Yu's eyes were full of sternness. If someone in Zhuangzi saw him, they would definitely think that he had changed. Is this the same boss of the Yu family who always smiled when meeting people and was indecisive in doing things?
"Brother, this matter needs to be arranged in advance. Do you want my nephew to be sent out first?" The little man took out a bottle of Xifeng wine from somewhere, took out two bowls, and filled them both.
"Xiaoba, when did you become such a mother-in-law? We all do things with our heads on our belts. Do you care about so much?"
When Boss Yu heard about his silly son, he frowned, raised his eyes, and glared at the little man with dissatisfaction.
"Brother, I'm just telling you what to do, but I still don't listen to you."
Seeing Boss Yu staring at him, the little man suddenly trembled with fright, spilled a lot of the wine he was holding, and hurriedly explained.
"Well, you can leave after a while and notify the people below. They all stay at home and no one is allowed to cause trouble. Otherwise, I will skin them and wait for the archaeological team to leave.
, let’s take out all the things quickly, we don’t have to wait here until then.”
Boss Yu picked up the wine bowl, touched it with the little man, raised his neck and drank it all. Without using chopsticks, he grabbed the cooked vegetables on the table and started eating.
After eating and drinking, the little man named Xiaoba left. This man seemed to have a problem. When he walked, he liked to stick to the wall and was very light on his feet. In addition to his small stature, even after leaving Mr. Yu's house, even if
It was broad daylight, and few people noticed him.
"Wife and son?"
After Xiaoba left, Boss Yu continued to drink alone, with a sinister smile on his face from time to time. If anyone saw his expression now, they would definitely feel creepy.
After leaving Liujiazhuang in the 1980s, Mr. Yu was brought to Luoyang, Henan by his father. From then on, he finally knew his origins and that he was not a good person if he dared to love his father, who was usually kind to others.
It was during those seven or eight years that Yu Ku came into contact with a world that he had never even dreamed of. And with his extraordinary endurance, sharp mind, ruthless methods and harmless disguise, he made it from halfway.
He was killed and took over the family's ancestral business.
Women? Yu Ku has raised several young, beautiful, and well-educated girls from various places. She also has two sons. How could she care about this unworthy wife and that stupid son at home?
Speaking of women, there was a nice girl in the archaeological team that had been here for almost a week. Boss Yu drank a bowl of wine and his eyes became a little blurry.
And that girl who is good in Boss Yu's eyes is currently with her hands on her waist, making things difficult for classmate Zhuang Rui who is talking about trouble.
