"Yes," Tang Shiyue said seriously, "very familiar."
Then the young man frowned and thought very seriously... Tang Shiyue waited for a long time, but he didn't say anything.
She thought it was really fun to worry about little brother, and she thought what could a child under fourteen really think about? So she asked him: "Brother?"
Tang Shirong said solemnly: "Although Brother Qi is a good character, he has no permanent property and no relatives. He is also a little cold, taciturn and very boring... I think Yue Yue should think more about it.
Don’t make such a rash decision.”
Tang Shirong was very handsome, especially those round deer eyes, which looked particularly innocent. Looking at her with such a sullen expression was so adorable that Tang Shiyue burst into laughter and touched her face.
Touching his face: "I know! Don't worry, brother!"
Tang Shirong was helpless: "Yueyue!"
"I really know!" Tang Shiyue explained with a serious look, "We are just doing business together. I always see Ah Jing with my fourth uncle and aunt, or with you. I don't meet him alone, so Ah Jing
Brother, you really don’t need to think too much.”
Tang Shirong nodded: "Yes."
The two of them hurried back home. Fourth Uncle Tang and Madam Zhou were still at home. They talked about the matter hastily, and Madam Zhou slapped her on the thigh: "If you want me to say it, why not find a big matchmaker to settle the matter between Ajing and Yue'er?"
.”
"No," Tang Shirong said sternly, "Yue Yue is still young and has no personal relationship with Brother Qi. If my aunt said this, wouldn't it cause misunderstanding?"
Madam Zhou was stunned for a moment, knowing that he was not happy, so she could only say: "Forget it then."
After the two of them said goodbye and went out, Tang Shiyue washed the hands and faces of Xiao Yao'er and Xiao Qiyang. She originally wanted to arrange for the two to sleep together, but unexpectedly Qi Yang refused, so in the end Qi Yang slept with Tang Shirong.
, Tang Shiyue returned to the wing by herself.
I was half asleep when I suddenly heard someone knocking on the window gently.
The wing room was adjacent to the courtyard wall and had no rear window, but she slept in the room to the north, which had a small window. Tang Shiyue was in a daze when she heard a familiar voice call her in a low voice: "Ah Yue"
?Ayue?"
His voice was like a deep bell, and it was particularly charming when he pressed his throat. Tang Shiyue thought he was dreaming, turned over lazily, and muttered: "It sounds so good, let's call him two more
Voice."
He barked twice more obediently, and then asked quietly: "Are you awake or dreaming?"
Tang Shiyue woke up immediately. She composed herself and sat up: "Ah Jing?"
He hummed, and she asked him a little bit angrily: "Why do you come here to call for ghosts in the middle of the night?"
He seemed to have taken a long breath, and his voice was smooth and steady, but it was inexplicably a little aggrieved: "You just praised my beautiful voice."
"No," she rubbed her face: "I mean, what's the matter with you?"
Qi Jing said: "I just came to tell you that the things have been put away."
"I got it!" she said, "There's no need to talk about this kind of thing in the future. Anyway, I know you can definitely handle it beautifully."
Qi Jing raised her eyebrows, and suddenly heard a squeaking sound. She opened the small window and lay in front of the window, like a little squirrel, smiling at him with misty eyes: "Leave the rest to me!
"
She stretched out a small hand and patted his shoulder: "Good night."
Under the moonlight, the little hands were white and small, as cute as petals. He nodded: "Yes." He grabbed her hand, gave it back to her, and closed the window sash: "It's cold,
Go to sleep now."
…………
The gossip in the village has always spread throughout the village overnight, and the main place where women in the village spread gossip is by the river.
So the next day, Tang Shiyue took two handkerchiefs and went out to wash them.
She was small and deliberately avoided people. She quickly found two daughters-in-law from the Chen family. She was talking about this matter vividly. Why was the Buddha statue burnt black at that time? Why did Qi Xiaolang wipe it clean with the hem of his clothes?
She, how could she reject it, and how could she accept it with a blush... It was so vivid. At this level, it would be possible to write novels on the Internet in modern times.
Tang Shiyue listened with great interest, then saw the opportunity, grabbed the wet handkerchief and rushed out: "What are you talking about! I have never taken Qi Xiaolang's Buddha statue!"
She didn't just arrest people randomly, she arrested a daughter-in-law who liked to be "unreasonable and stubborn", so she started quarreling three times and had to go to the clan leader for comment.
The head of the Tang family asked Qi Jing to be called over. Qi Jing's face was paralyzed and he said that he gave up pursuing the things outside his body just because it involved human lives. He didn't want his benefactor to bear an unjust injustice and would never tolerate this.
…
Then the head of the Tang family invited Li Zheng over and discussed asking some people to go to Chen Laizitou's house to look around.
When Chen Lizheng came over, his face was really dark.
The head of the Tang family saw this and felt extremely happy.
Then Tang Shiyue told the story again. She was really good at performing such small scenes, and her expressions and movements were flawless. If the head of the Tang family hadn't known about it in advance, he would have believed that she overheard it.
.
Chen Lizheng couldn't stop this kind of thing. If he stopped it, wouldn't it make him feel guilty?
So each of the Tang family and Chen family called several descendants to go over and look through Chen Laizitou's house in detail.
Tang Shiyue looked outside curiously.
She didn't know where Qi Jing had put the Buddha statue, but she saw that these young men even lifted up the Kang to look, but couldn't find it. They all came out empty-handed. Chen Lizheng's dark face gradually softened, and he said calmly: "Tang
What did the patriarch say?"
Before the head of the Tang family could speak, Qi Jing said coldly: "Whoever finds it, I will give him ten taels of silver."
As soon as he said this, the lazy people suddenly started to get excited, and many people squeezed in without even picking up their hoes.
Chen Lizheng's pride that had just risen was suppressed again, and he looked at Qi Jing coldly. The head of the Tang family touched his beard and said, "Young man, you just have a bad temper, alas!"
Chen Lizheng: "..."
Chen Laizi's house is such a small place, and people who enter can hardly squeeze in. There is great strength in numbers. After a while, someone said in surprise: "I found it! I found it!"
Then someone trotted out with a handful of mud and gold in his hand. He put it on the ground and pulled it open. Sure enough, a pure gold Buddha statue was revealed. I don’t know how the prayer banner was made. There were actually growths on the mud above it.
Very long grass.
The key is that this person’s surname is Chen!
The man even shouted excitedly: "It's buried so deep! It's two feet deep! I saw that there were no stones on top, so I thought the scoundrel's head couldn't be so neat, so I tried to dig it out!"
Qi Jing took the golden Buddha statue, thanked the man, and gave him ten taels of silver as promised. Then he turned around and said, "Thank you, Chief Tang, Chen Lizheng, for helping me bring back the Buddha statue."
Everyone was also talking about it.
No matter how simple the country people are, they can't afford money to recruit people, so many people have been looking for the burned-out Qi's house and Chen Laizitou's home. They haven't found it yet, and they must be murmuring in their hearts... I didn't expect that it was still there...
It’s true! Why didn’t they find it?
Finally, Qi Jing also explained that at that time he only gave Tang Shiyue twenty taels as a token of gratitude, and Tang Shiyue refused to accept more. In addition, the Buddha statue would not be sold, but would be passed down to the family.
In short, everything that needs to be explained is explained clearly at once.
Mrs. Sun and the He family also went to watch the fun and came back cursing, saying that Tang Shiyue was a fool and didn't even want to pay!
Tang Shijin listened quietly and said calmly: "Even if there is no Buddha statue, there will definitely be no shortage of silver in the hands of the prayer."
Grandma Sun said angrily: "It's a pity that this little girl climbed up to the clan leader and protected her at every turn! She can't get it out of our hands!"
"So what?" Tang Shijin's eyes flashed, and he sneered disdainfully: "How difficult is it to make the patriarch dislike her? Just use a little trick!" (To be continued)
