Chapter 35 Widow Cai

Qingyuan Village is 30 miles northwest of Liangyue County. It is a small village with only half a hundred families living, and the house of Xue's brother and sister is in Qingyuan Village.

Zhang Yan insisted on coming to Xue's brother and sister's house because of the man named Xue Lengshan. At this time, he and Ma Chong went through a trek and came to a slope outside Qingyuan Village.

The slope is full of flowers all over the mountains. The red flowers are as red as the scorching sun, gorgeously. As soon as the mountain wind blows, the faint and elegant fragrance comes to the nose, making people smell it and intoxicated.

"What's the name of this flower?" Zhang Yan was a little surprised* and asked when he looked at the endless red flowers.

"This flower is called Qingyuan, which is a unique plant in Yanzhou. The flower is red, bright and delicate, and its fragrance is long, just like love." It was Xue Rou who opened her mouth. She also embroidered a green irises in the room this morning, which is naturally very familiar.

"Oh, who planted it?"

"I don't know. Anyway, when I was born, there were all these flowers on the hillside. When I asked the villagers, they only said, this flower... this flower..." At this point, Xue Rou suddenly stopped talking.

Zhang Yan looked over a little strangely and was even more surprised to see the girl's angry face. Is there anything secret about this flower? But he heard Xue Lou say, "Sister, what's the shame? Let me say it."

Xuelou is also angry like his sister: "The villagers call this flower a ghost and an unuspicious flower. They also said that this flower was brought back to the village by my mother."

Zhang Yan was a little surprised and asked, "How could this happen?"

Xue's brothers and sisters shook their heads to show that they didn't know.

Zhang Yan was not easy to ask many questions and changed the topic. As everyone walked, they said, and began to walk towards the house of the Xue brothers and sisters. Enteringyuan Village, Zhang Yan found that the people he saw along the way swept towards him and others with a hostile look, without concealment, ** their faces were full of faces. Looking at Xue's brothers and sisters, the two seemed to be unconscious. It seems that he has been used to this kind of look for a long time and leads the way freely.

This time, Zhang Yan can roughly guess that the Xue brothers and sisters may also be marginalized everywhere in this village. They have lived here since childhood and don't know how they spent their time...

A small courtyard surrounded by green bamboo, three green brick and gray tile houses, and a vegetable field, which is very neat and orderly. Xue's brother and sister's mother is a beautiful woman, beautiful and has a secluded temperament. Her name is Cai Rong. She looks very happy that her two children come back from the city to visit her, but she has not forgotten to say hello to the two strangers, Zhang Yan and Ma Chong. From this point, it can be seen that Cai Rong is not a vulgar rural woman.

After sitting down in the room and leading Xue's brothers and sisters to sharpen their knives and kill chickens and sheep, Zhang Yan told Cai Rong his origin and came straight to the point: "Don't you know that your aunt knows Xue Lengshan?"

"I don't know." Cai Rong's expression remained unchanged, with a reserved smile on the corners of her mouth, and even picked up the teapot and steadily filled Zhang Yan with tea.

Zhang Yan seemed to have expected this and said, "Some people want to catch Xuerou and Snow Tower. The reason is that they have a father named Xue Lengshan."

"Oh? Maybe they made a mistake." Cai Rong raised her eyebrows and her face was still indifferent, but Zhang Yan saw that her right hand trembled gently.

Zhang Yan was not discouraged and did not rush to ask questions. After a long silence, he said, "Xue Lou is going to follow me to practice, and Xue Rou may also follow."

This time, Cai Rong's expression finally changed, her face became sad, and there was a touch of bitterness that could not be concealed, but she still did not say the situation of the snow-cold mountains, but in a strange tone, almost muttered, "Well, let's go, you don't have to come back, and you don't have to be poked in the spine anymore..."

Zhang Yan pulled the corners of his mouth. This woman seems to be a little too stubborn, right? Or, the snowy cold mountain is a scar that she doesn't want to uncover in her heart.

At this moment, a shout came in, "Woman Cai, the village always asked you to take your two cubs to the ancestral hall. It's now. Don't regret it's too late."

Zhang Yan was stunned when he heard the words, but he heard the snow building in the yard shout, "Li Lizi, what are you shouting about? You dog will help the village old man bite people."

Cai Rong also heard it. Her face had recovered calmly and indifferently. She stood up, walked into the yard, stopped the scolding of the snow tower, and said to a thin man at the gate of the yard, "Go back and tell the village elder, I'll be there."

When the thin man saw Cai Rong coming out, he cursed and turned his head and left: "Woman Cai, I have reminded him that the villager is waiting in the ancestral hall."

"Bah! Son of a bitch."

Xue Lou scolded heavily, with a resentful face, turned his head and asked Cai Rong, "Mother, it's never good for the village to ask us to go in the ancestral hall. Let's not go and see what they can do with us."

Cai Rong shook his head and resolutely said, "No, you have to go. If you offend the village, you will be in trouble..."

"I'll go with you." Ma Chong came from the side and said, "I'd like to see what they dare to do!"

Cai Rong leaned and said, "Thank you very much, Brother Ma."

Xue Lou shouted, "Mom, that's Brother Ma."

When they heard the words, everyone smiled one after another.

At this time, Xue Rou also came out of the kitchen, and everyone's eyes turned to Zhang Yan. Seeing this, Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Then I will go with you."

He witnessed everything in front of him. Although he didn't know what the village was going to do to the Xue's brother and sister's family in the ancestral hall, he knew that it would never be a good thing, and even had nothing to do with his arrival. How could things in the world be so coincidental? As soon as he entered the Xue's brother and sister's house, the village elder sent someone to come. Question mark

————————————————

In the ancestral hall of Qingyuan Village, the village elder Han Likong palled up and down with a gloomy look and said angrily, "This bitch is so shameless. She returned to the village more than ten years ago and brought back two bastards. Today, two wild men were recruited. It's shameful. What's the face of the villagers?"

A group of people standing next to them nodded and said that they were villagers of this village. They had long been unfailed with Widow Cai's family. Today, the village elder Han Likong decided to penalise Widow Cai's family. They all applauded their hands.

One of them said, "Village, how should we deal with them?"

Han Likong sneered and said, "Naturally, it is on this ancestral hall to kill the mother and son with sticks."

Another person said, "But what if that person comes back again? More than ten years ago, that man was..."

"Shut up!" Han Likong turned his head and stared at the speaker with a pale face, with blue veins on his face.

The ancestral hall suddenly became silent, and everyone's faces changed dramatically. They seemed to be extremely afraid of 'that person'. At this time, the atmosphere was quite dull.

I don't know how long it took, Han Likong took the lead in breaking the silence and said coldly, "For more than ten years, we have been ridiculing and insulting Widow Cai's family. Has that... has that person ever appeared? Well, according to my guess, I'm afraid that man has abandoned their mother and son. There is no need to worry.

A decade ago, when Cai Rong returned to the village with two children in his belly, it was definitely a disaster in the village. At that time, almost all the villagers opposed Cai Rong's entry into the village, because she was pregnant with two wild species. They beat and scolded to prevent Cai Rong from approaching the village. At that time, the man Appeared, as soon as he took action, he killed more than a dozen people, including Han Xing, the eldest son of the village...

More than ten years have passed, and the villagers will not forget the bloody night, let alone the demon-like man, and all this is caused by Cai Rong. How can they not hate it? What's even, they are sure that the Xue brothers and sisters are the sons of that person. For the villagers, how can they not want to kill the Xue brothers and sisters to vent their hatred?

And today, the day of revenge, Han Likong couldn't wait any longer and didn't want to wait. He made such a decision not only because the Xue brothers and sisters returned to the village together, but also because his youngest son of Han Likong also came back!

Han Likong's youngest son's name is Han Shuo, a swordsman. In the eyes of the villagers, this is a fairy-like existence. With Han Shuo, they don't have to worry about 'that person' will appear again. If it appears, it would be best. Wouldn't it be better to let Han Shuo kill him on the spot?

At this time, Han Shuo, who has a feminine appearance, stands behind Han Likong, with a cold and arrogant look, and has long been accustomed to the awe of the people around him.

"Come, come, they come, and the two wild men who entered the village today also followed..." Li Lizi ran into the ancestral hall excitedly and shouted.

Everyone's eyes looked out of the ancestral hall, and a group of five people slowly came closer and closer...
