Even Tang Shiyue couldn't help but raise his head and take a look. For the first time, he felt that the old man in front of him was really shrewd, sophisticated and to the point.
The clan leader asked with a cold face for a long time, but Tang Yongming was not as deceitful as Chen Laizitou. He refused to admit whether he was alive or dead, and they had no evidence. The clan leader would not force him to death. To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is really true.
, which is of no benefit to anyone.
In the end, the patriarch said coldly: "Qiu'er's matter is just a matter of speculation. Let's leave it alone for the time being." Mrs. Lu wanted to speak. The head of the Tang family glanced at Tang Dahuai coldly. Tang Dahuai lowered his head anxiously and pulled Mrs. Lu behind him.
Smiley face.
The head of the Tang family continued: "But Zhu'er and Yue'er are both your biological nieces. As an uncle, you were looking for marriages for them, but you didn't bother to inquire about them and promised them to such a person. If you really do harm to them,
If you take their lives, you can't live with your conscience! If you do something like this again in the future, I will never let you off lightly!"
Tang Yongming hurriedly lowered his hands to plead guilty, but did not dare to smile again. The head of the Tang family continued: "As for what happened today, to be honest, it was all caused by you! The three young ladies, Zhu'er, Yue'er and Qiu'er, are not yet married.
Each of you who are my uncles will give you twenty taels of silver as an apology!"
Tang Yongming was surprised: "Cousin, I..."
The head of the Tang family looked at him coldly: "Maybe we can report to the government together and see if Qiu'er is at Boss Niu's house?"
Tang Yongming's expression suddenly changed, and the crowd went silent for a moment. He finally bit down and said, "Yes, uncle, I will listen to you."
Tang Shiyue couldn't help but have some respect for this old patriarch. Although he had no evidence and did not convict Tang Yongming, he had actually completely cut off Tang Yongming's escape route. From his position, there was no punishment.
It's not heavy anymore.
Tang Shiyue hurriedly saluted: "Cousin, Yue'er is lucky to be fine. I will give Yue'er's share to cousin Qiu'er."
The head of the Tang family looked at her deeply.
He knew everything about her family's situation. These days, Tang Shiyin and Tang Yongming both suffered losses one after another against her. Grandma Sun had long hated her.
She has a mother who cannot stand up, and the money she got from her uncle is extremely difficult to keep. Even if she keeps it by force, she will be hated. It is rare that she has such a calculation and such a decision.
.This is twenty taels! The expenditure of a family of three is only a dozen taels!
The head of the Tang family nodded: "It's up to you." After thinking for a while, he continued: "Your brother has always been diligent and observant of etiquette. Although you are sensible, you are still young, so you should always ask your brother's opinion when things happen."
What he meant was to give her some advice on how to escape the control of the Wang family. After all, although the family had not been separated, according to old rules, Tang Shirong was the male master of the third room.
"Yes," Tang Shiyue said obediently, "Yueer understands."
She really understood. This child was indeed very smart. The head of the Tang family nodded secretly, then stood up and said to Tang Yongfu: "Your father is not here, and you are the head of the family. Don't think too much when things happen."
You should always let women and other people lead you by the nose, and you will do stupid things!"
Tang Yongfu responded urgently and sent the head of the Tang family away with a bow and a bow.
Tang Yongming clenched his fists fiercely, and Mrs. Sun looked at her with a stern look, as if she wanted to tear her alive on the spot.
Tang Shiyue turned around and went back to the shabby house, thinking as she went.
She underestimated the respect the villagers had for the "nobles" in the town. If this was a matter between villages, everyone would dare to take advantage of it with sticks. But when the so-called nobles were involved, everyone instinctively became timid and did not
People dare to suggest that they come to the door to discuss matters.
Not only the people in the village, but also the clan leader. The head of the Tang family thinks more. He will think that so many people in the town know about Boss Niu’s evil deeds, but Boss Niu still dares to act so arrogantly. So, how strong is his backing?
So this person must not be messed with.
If Qiu'er had just been lost, Aunt Ertang would have really been able to rush to Boss Niu's house to ask for his life with a burst of enthusiasm. But now more than half a year has passed, and the saddest moment has passed, so she doesn't even have it.
What a fuss.
That is to say, Qi Jing said that Tang Qiu'er was dead. Otherwise, a young lady would be struggling in the inner courtyard but had been given up by her family. Then... how desperate she would be.
But it's fine now. Tang Yongming is honest and has no worries anymore. He has also lost a lot of money. At the cusp of the crisis, Granny Sun doesn't dare to find trouble with her. As for the future, we will talk about it later.
A little dumpling ran over, held her hand, and looked up at her. Tang Shiyue calmed down and touched his head: "Sister, I'm fine."
Qi Jing said softly: "This is all we can do for the time being. If you are unhappy, should I find someone to sue him?"
Tang Shiyue shook her head: "No, I can't even take care of myself. I don't have the confidence to help the world. I can't afford any accidents...Besides," she paused: "Not even my biological parents.
I am just an outsider after all."
Qi Jing looked at her eyes and immediately misunderstood, and said softly: "Some people are born with weak relationships, don't be sad."
She shook her head: "No, I'm not sad."
At this moment, everyone has not completely dispersed and is still talking about it. Naturally, many people saw this scene.
But everyone knows that Tang Shiyue saved Qi Yang, so they are not surprised to see the Qi family brothers who have always been aloof getting close to her. Although some ladies are sour when they see it, it is hard to say much on such occasions.
What.
This matter has come to an end for the time being, but the way people in the village look at the Tang family has completely changed. Especially when there is a young lady at home, and people who were familiar with Tang Yongming before, they are really scared when they see the Tang family.
When passing by, one would have to criticize mulberry trees and pagoda trees. Tang Yongfu had to take a detour when going to the fields.
Because Qi Jing lived close by, little Qi Yang ran here early every morning. Xiao Yao'er gradually became able to say a few words to him. The two children stayed at home to look after him. Tang Shiyue went up the mountain peacefully and occasionally followed him.
Please cooperate.
Now that she went up the mountain to set up a noose, she didn't have to worry about being intercepted by Tang Shiyin. She managed to catch the village doctor's three rabbits before the ten-day deadline.
Mr. Wang was in a weird mood all day long. Seeing that she ignored her, he started throwing and beating her, and scolded her: "You are treating me like a thief! You are treating me like a thief!"
Tang Shiyue smiled.
My heart says that you are worse than a thief. At least the thief can be beaten! Besides, at this time, the villagers want to stare at the Tang family with eight eyes. If Tang Yongfu has the courage, he will not dare to come to the door secretly, so don't wait!
When the day of rest came, Tang Shirong did not come back. He sent a message saying that he would have two days off after the Dragon Boat Festival.
Tang Junchen didn't come back either, and Mrs. Zhou's family was also looking forward to it, so the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Mrs. Zhou came to make an appointment with Tang Shiyue, planning to go to the town to buy some things.
Tang Shiyue had just had breakfast and said with a smile: "Auntie, since we are going, why don't I invite A Jing, and we will go by mule cart. I will take A Yao and A Yang to play with me, and you will also
Take your fourth uncle with you so that we can have a good time wandering around the town. If it’s late, you can pick up my elder brother and elder brother back, okay?”
Madam Zhou was a little moved when she heard what she said. The mule cart was much faster than the ox cart. She smiled and said, "Qi Xiaolang has to agree."
"Don't be afraid," Tang Shiyue smiled and pointed at Qi Yang beside him: "His brother is in my hands. If he refuses, I will not return it to him."
Xiao Qiyang nodded seriously, yes, I won’t pay it back!
Madam Zhou was so amused by this child that she laughed out loud. Tang Shiyue led Qi Yang to find Qi Jing. Madam Zhou stood aside, thinking that if it failed, she would step forward to rescue him. Unexpectedly, Tang Shiyue only
After saying that, Qi Jing started to set up the car. (To be continued)
