Chapter 355: The Tang Family Comes to Make Trouble
The most painful thing in life is for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person away, and to lose his son in old age and have no one to rely on. So the moment Mr. Su saw Su Liu, he thought of Su Changsheng who died tragically, and the grief in his heart naturally surged up.
, burst into tears.
He couldn't speak, and he couldn't elaborate on the grief in his heart. He could only make a dull sob in his throat, which made people feel sad to see him.
"Liu Yatou came to see you, are you happy?" Su Qingxiang stepped forward and asked.
Mr. Su made two sounds, looked at Su Liu, raised his thin hand and stretched it out to her. Su Liu hesitated for a while, and finally came closer and reached out to hold his hand.
As soon as she got closer, Su Liu frowned and pursed her lips slightly, because she smelled a strong smell of old people, just like the rotten smell coming from the depths of the woods, which made people sick and uncomfortable.
Look at the hand that is holding her hand tightly. It is dry and thin. It is a real old man's hand. There is not a few ounces of flesh, only a layer of skin covering the bones. It is wrinkled, but it is squeezing her hard.
hand.
Su Liu felt a little uncomfortable. In fact, Mr. Su was only in his sixties, not very old. However, due to the shock of losing his son, he now seemed like an old man in his seventies who was about to die frequently.
Mr. Su stared at Su Liu, wanting to say something, but because he couldn't speak, he burst into tears and let out a choking sound.
When Su Qingxiang saw him, he said: "Don't be anxious, what do you want to say?" Seeing his eyes looking towards the east courtyard, he thought for a while and said: "Are you talking about the funeral of the eldest nephew? Everything was well done.
, Don’t worry, the Liu’er sisters are also here to give him a ride.”
Mr. Su's muddy tears flowed down. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he looked at Su Liu with pleading eyes.
Su Qingxiang couldn't understand, but Su Liu said, "But are you worried about Su Jinquan? Do you want me to save him?"
Mr. Su's eyes lit up after hearing this, he blinked, and squeezed Su Liu's hand harder.
Su Liu sighed and said: "He committed murder, and he also committed patricide." Seeing Mr. Su's eyes darken, he said again: "Don't worry, it's okay to save his life, but
He should be sentenced to exile, and there is nothing I can do about the rest."
Mr. Su made an eager sound when he heard this. Su Qingxiang on the side asked: "Are you going to be sentenced to exile?"
"Yes, go west and be exiled for three thousand miles." Su Liu said calmly.
Su Qingxiang hesitated to speak, but seeing that Su Liu didn't want to say more, he said: "It's good to save his life. As for the rest, it depends on his own life." Seeing the old man's unwillingness to give up, he said
Then he advised: "Don't think about it anymore. You can't even take care of yourself. It's better if you can save your life."
Mr. Su shed tears again. Seeing that Su Liu didn't want to say anything, his skinny hands relaxed and he closed his eyes and cried.
The dull cries made people feel depressed. Coupled with the smell in the room, Su Liu no longer wanted to stay any longer. He just said a few words of light relief and left.
Standing under the eaves of the main house, you can still hear Su Qingxiang's voice comforting Mr. Su. He should be more open-minded and open-minded. He is too old to care about this.
"Sister, the old man has aged a lot, it seems, he seems to be going fast..." Su Xiao lowered her voice and said.
Su Liu glanced at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
She knew what Su Xiaoxiao meant. Not to mention her, even she felt that the old man might not live long.
The two sisters were talking in a low voice, but Su Liu caught a glimpse of a skinny little child drooling with a finger in his mouth and looking at them dirtyly beside the courtyard door.
"Who is this?" Su Xiao also saw it and beckoned: "Hey, little Douding, come here."
The child immediately stepped aside and only stuck out half of his head to take a peek. Su Xiao was not in a hurry and slowly took out a piece of sesame candy from his sleeve and waved it: "Sister, I have candy."
The little girl was finally attracted and ran over with a silly smile. She looked up eagerly at Su Xiao and swallowed her saliva. No, to be precise, she looked at the piece of sesame candy in Su Xiao's hand.
"Tell sister, what is your name, and I will give it to you." Su Xiao once again asked her to talk.
It's a pity that the little girl only giggled, laughed, and didn't speak.
Su Liu frowned. There seemed to be something wrong with this girl, a bit silly.
Just as he was hesitating, Su Qingxiang's voice came from behind: "Yaya, why are you here?"
Yaya?
Su Liu was startled and lowered his head to look at her carefully. In his memory, the child was already two years old and should have been able to speak for a long time. But looking at her now, it seemed like she couldn't speak.
"Uncle, do you think this is Yaya?" Su Xiao was also shocked and said, "Why, why does it look like she?" She pointed to her head.
Su Qingxiang let out a long sigh and said: "They are all poor children. Qian'er was thrown to the ground by her damn father and banged her head, so she ended up like this. What a sin! Such a small child will not grow up well."
What to do?”
Su Liu and Su Xiao were very angry after hearing this. If Su Changsheng hadn't been dead, they might have cursed him. No, even now, Su Xiao wanted to whip the corpse. He was still a child. How could he do it?
Got it?
Su Liu looked at Yaya grabbing the candy Su Xiao gave her and licking it happily with her dirty hands. She couldn't help but shake her head. Thinking of someone, she asked, "By the way, why don't you see Chuntao?"
Su Qingxiang's face darkened and he said in a deep voice: "Don't mention it."
Su Liu narrowed his eyes slightly: "What?"
Su Qingxiang took out his cigarette pole and said with some disappointment: "She ran away. She ran away the night your father died. Who knows where she went?"
"What?" Su Xiao was very shocked and asked, "Su Chuntao ran away? You didn't look for her?"
"I looked for it, but I couldn't find it." Su Qingxiang shook his head.
"What on earth is going on?" Su Liu felt that this was unusual. Su Chuntao actually ran away?
Su Changsheng's death was not a natural death, but was killed by his own son. After the news spread that day, the old house was as lively as a market, crowded with people. When Su Changsheng heard about such a human tragedy,
The old man was so stimulated that he fainted, his condition became more serious, and there was a funeral to be held, so it became a mess.
It wasn't until Su Changsheng was executed and the autopsy was completed. The villagers helped set up the mourning hall and set up Su Changsheng's bed. After everything was arranged, everyone could sit and chat. It was at this time that they discovered that Su Changsheng
Chuntao is missing.
Is this a good thing if this living person is missing? She searched everywhere, but couldn't find it. On the contrary, there were a lot of clothes missing from her wardrobe. At this time, someone suddenly suggested that since Su Changsheng had collected
He received the betrothal money from the Tang family, but why didn’t he notice it when he was dressed in a shroud?
So, combined with this, everyone thought that Su Chuntao ran away with the money.
"Where can she go as a woman? No one saw where she went?" Su Xiao asked.
"Some people actually saw her carrying a baggage out of the village." Su Qingxiang sighed.
The two sisters were silent. Su Chuntao's move was really unkind. Her mother and brother were in jail, her father was dead, but she ran away with the money, not caring that there was a stupid sister and an underage brother underneath.
Five years later, someone in a coastal town saw a girl named Xiao Taoer, who was wearing revealing clothes and a haggard face that looked very much like Su Chuntao, leaning on the building to attract customers. The girl in the building said,
This woman named Xiao Tao'er is also a scholar's wife. Unfortunately, she is not a kind person. She was defrauded of all her money and sold here five years ago. I will not mention this later.
Su Chuntao suddenly ran away. Su Liu more or less knew why. It was only because of Tang Jiabao.
Su Liu's guess was correct. Just as they were talking in the courtyard, there were noisy sounds from the east courtyard.
Someone rushed in and said to Su Qingxiang: "Village Chief, the Tang family is here to cause trouble."
Su Qingxiang's face darkened and he hurried over in a hurry.
"Let's go take a look too." Su Liu frowned and said to Su Xiao.
When I walked to the door of the east courtyard, I saw that the ground was in a mess. The spring bench and the Eight Immortals table were kicked to the ground. In front of the door, a group of people wearing red and green gathered around. The leaders were Tang Jiabao and his mother. Finally,
There is also a big red sedan chair parked next to it.
Not to mention how much Su Liu hated Su Changsheng, but now that he is dead and there is still a funeral, you come in red and green, are you trying to resist?
Su Qingxiang was confronting the Tang family, his face was red and his neck was thick, and he was obviously very angry.
"If you want to make trouble, you shouldn't choose this opportunity to make trouble for someone else's funeral. Are you pretending that there is no one in our Dayao Village?" Su Qingxiang shouted sternly.
"That's right." The villagers rolled up their sleeves angrily and said, "Hit us if you want. Do you think we are dead?"
"What's the trouble? The damned Su Changsheng took fifty taels of betrothal money from us and married his daughter to my son. What's wrong with us coming to carry him out now?" Mother Tang said in a sharp voice: "You hand over the man, we will
Leave immediately, whoever wants to be here will not be in trouble."
"She's not at home, and we're looking for her too," Su Qingxiang said with a dark face.
"Stop fooling around. How can it be so cheap to take money and hide people?" A brother of the Tang family said: "Don't talk nonsense. Either give money or give it to others."
"Yes!" Mother Tang raised her chin and said bitterly: "Looking at how you poor people are dressed in rags, how can you get fifty taels? You'd better hand them over quickly. Otherwise, we will
See the official!"
Being so humiliated, many villagers in Da'ao Village were aggrieved, and both sides started to quarrel with each other.
When Su Liu heard this, he understood. The Tang family was here to support Su Chuntao. Who asked Su Changsheng to accept the bride price? Unfortunately, the duck had already flown.
But regardless of whether the Tang family is reasonable or not, if you make trouble at someone else's funeral, what is reasonable becomes unreasonable. This is disrespectful to the dead and is not allowed anywhere.
Seeing that the quarrel between the two parties was becoming more and more tense, Su Liu coughed and walked over.
"The big girl is here." Someone in the crowd shouted, and immediately made way for Su Liu and others to walk through.
