Chapter 200 I'm afraid you'll lose it
Su Li rubbed her sleepy eyes and said: "Is it time, can you put me down?"
"Is your leg okay?" He Yufeng asked.
Su Lijiao smiled and said: "Okay, okay, everything will be fine after a night of sleep!"
He Yufeng just put her down. Su Li saw that his head was sweating, took out the handkerchief in his pocket and handed it to him: "Nuo, wipe your sweat for you, you have worked hard this journey."
He Yufeng didn't refuse either, and naturally took the handkerchief in her hand and wiped it. After wiping, he didn't return it to Su Li, and put it in his pocket.
He said, "I'll return it to you after I wash it."
Su Li doesn't care, it's just a veil, she still has a lot at home!
Although He Yufeng knew the way to Jiagezhuang, he didn't know where Zhao Peng's family lived, so Su Li found a villager and started asking for directions.
When the people in the village saw someone new coming, they couldn't help becoming vigilant. There were too many things happening in the village recently, so much that they couldn't sleep well at night.
Su Li tried her best to look kindly: "Auntie, don't be afraid. I'm Zhao Peng's distant cousin. It's just that our two families haven't been in touch for many years. This time, I heard about him and wanted to come and have a look."
The woman looked Su Li up and down, and saw that her face was sincere, she didn't seem to be lying, and it's not a secret where Zhao Peng's family lives, so it doesn't matter if you say it.
"Go straight north, and when you see an apricot tree, turn west. The house at the end will be his house."
Su Li smiled and thanked the woman: "Thank you auntie, I also pity that my cousin passed away at a young age!"
The woman also sighed when she heard it: "Who said it wasn't! That child hasn't married yet, and doesn't even have a bloodline left behind. The poor Zhao family's white-haired couple gave it to a black-haired one."
Su Li's eyes flickered, and she said: "A few years ago, I heard that he had a childhood sweetheart, who seemed to be engaged, but I didn't hear him say it afterward."
The woman couldn't help asking: "What's the girl's name?"
Su Li thought about it and said, "It seems to be called Xiu'er?"
The woman patted her thigh when she heard this: "Oh, you can't talk nonsense, Xiu'er has been engaged since she was a child, and the other party is a scholar! It's just that Xiu'er's life is not very good, she doesn't have that blessing, and she is young. It's gone easily."
Su Li pretended to be surprised and said: "Ah? No, please tell me what's going on, auntie?"
How is this different from what she heard before?
The matter of Xiu'er itself is not a secret, and the woman can't control her mouth, she said everything she knows: "Xiu'er got mad for some reason, do you think that a lady who is a scholar can be a madman? After discussing it, the marriage was dismissed, who knew that Xiu'er would quit, and she would be gone if thrown into the well."
"This Xiu'er is also an unfilial daughter. It's fine if she dies. She also took away all her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law. What do you think this kind of girl is raised for? I should have drowned her at such a young age." .”
Su Li: "."
Can turning into a ghost still kill you?
She doesn't believe this!
Su Li went on to say: "Auntie, what's the matter with this Xiu'er? Why did she get mad when she was doing well?"
The woman said disdainfully: "Can I still say this? I must have always wanted to be a scholar woman before, but I finally became one. I was excited for a while and then I was so happy!"
The woman raised her chin proudly, as if Xiu'er was her son: "No, it's from the next village, but their two families have been engaged before, and Xiu'er's family has helped him a lot over the years, but that Xiu'er is also Thank you, this time Xiu'er and her parents were buried with his help!"
"He said that although his relationship with Xiu'er is gone, he has always loved Xiu'er as his younger sister in his heart, and regarded her parents as his own parents, so when they are gone, he must give them Last decency."
"I have to say that he did a really good job. No one's house is as lively as his house. You didn't see that the meat on the table was bowl after bowl. This is the first time I have such a good meal." "
Listening to the woman's chatter, Su Li probably understood the matter clearly. Now except for the elder brother who traveled far away, no one in Xiu'er's family was spared. That Xiucai abandoned his fiancée, and finally fell gained a good reputation.
Su Li nodded to the woman: "Auntie, you are busy first, I will go to my cousin's house first."
The woman said enthusiastically, "Do you know the way? Do you want me to take you there?"
Su Li declined with a smile: "No need, I know it!"
"Okay then!" The woman didn't force it, and turned around to gossip again.
He Yufeng felt the complexity, and said, "Are you planning to intervene in this matter?"
Su Li glanced at him and said: "It's not that I want to intervene, it's that this matter has already become entangled by itself. If I don't solve it, it will be me who will be unlucky."
He Yufeng said: "I will always stand behind you, no matter what you do!"
Su Li didn't take his words to heart, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, then I'll rely on you, a big tree!"
He Yufeng said solemnly: "I'm serious!"
Su Li blinked her big eyes: "I am also serious, you can see the expression on my face is sincere."
He Yufeng had nothing to do with her, and reached out to hold her hand: "I'll lead you away, so that you won't get lost."
Su Li: "." That's absolutely unnecessary!
The passing villagers saw them holding hands and couldn't help pointing. He Yufeng let go of her hand a little embarrassed.
Su Li joked: "What? Are you afraid that I will get lost now?"
He Yufeng's ears began to turn red: "Now there are too many people to lose!"
Su Li giggled.
He Yufeng stared slightly at her smile, she was so pretty when she smiled, and all the boredom he felt after seeing her smile disappeared.
Before Su Li entered Zhao Peng's house, he heard crying from inside.
A few villagers approached not far away, but when they approached Zhao Peng's house, they turned a corner, as if they were subconsciously avoiding it, fearing that they would be unlucky if they passed by.
Su Li and He Yufeng walked in. Two old people were crying in the main room, but there was no coffin.
They didn't react until Su Li walked in front of the old man.
"You are?"
Su Li explained: "We are friends of Zhao Peng. We heard that he is gone, so we came here to take a look."
The old man wiped away his tears: "You have a heart, it is really worthwhile for Peng'er to make friends like you. Look, who in the village is not avoiding us now? I am afraid that we will pass on the bad luck to them!"
