"Other county magistrates may not, but this master is different." Ergou said firmly, "Think about bouquets of flowers.
If the county master helped her like that, he was not a fool. "
"Didn't it mean that the county master fell in love with her and helped her?"
Ergou went to lean against the wall, "Listen to the nonsense of those long-mouthed women. If the county master really fell in love with her, why didn't he take her to the government office to live? Or let her rent in someone else's house?"
"Then they..." Feng Xi spoke softer and quieter.
"What?"
"Then if our family's matter goes to the government, will the county master still help us?"
"Sure!"
The dancing lights illuminated the room full of people.
The farther back they are, the more they are hidden in the shadows.
"Then the things in his house can't be moved?" someone asked.
The clan uncle looked at the person who spoke, "Of course I can't do anything. When you ask me to come forward, do you want to find a way for the whole village to come out, or do you want to force me to become a thief?"
"What did my uncle say? What a thief. It's too unpleasant to hear."
"If you can do it well, don't be afraid of what others will say." Uncle Clan was helped to sit on the kang.
"Then what should we do now? Ergou and his wife ran out to report to the police?"
At the same time, Feng Xi, who was hiding in the corner of Luojia Village, asked: "What should we do now? Are we really going to report it to the official?"
"No." The clan uncle concluded, "Although Ergou has a bad temper, he is not a lighthearted person. If the conflicts in the clan really get into trouble with the government, it will be difficult to end them."
"No." Ergou said, "Although we are reasonable and the county master must be on our side, after all, we still live in Luojia Village and meet those people without raising our heads or lowering our heads. We cannot be like Shu Erhua. No one can do it every day. ignore."
"Since we can't report to the official, what should we do? You can think of a way so that you can't go home without being able to go back."
"Wait." Ergou said, "Wait a minute, some of those people must be impatient. Let's go back when there are fewer people at home. With so many people, it's impossible to say anything.
Cold? I'll cover it for you. "
"Uncle, why don't you let people go out to look for you?"
"No need to look for it. If you can't wait any longer, just go back."
The man yawned, "It's really late, and there's no one to look after my children at home, so I'll go back first."
Someone took the lead, and half of the people gathered at Ergou's house quickly left.
Among the remaining half, some looked at each other, waiting for someone to come up with an idea.
People keep asking the clan uncle what they should do next.
But the clan uncle just sat on the kang and said nothing. When he dug into other people's money bags, he always felt a little guilty.
If Ergou feels that he is absolutely right, he will not run away.
If these people who were stuck in Ergou's house thought that they would be fine, they wouldn't be afraid of Ergou reporting to the police.
Feng Xi and Ergou couldn't bear the cold outside, so they headed home.
When they arrived home, there were seven or eight people left in the house, some who had been here before and some who came after hearing the news after Ergou ran out.
"Uncle Clan." Luo Sanzhu woke up the people on the kang, "Er Gou and the others are back."
The clan uncle pulled the kang table and stood up, and the two young men next to him immediately stepped forward to help him.
"You haven't left yet. Please help me look after the house." Ergou scanned around the house before he entered. Although the things in the house had changed their positions, they were all still there. What he said were soft words.
"Where have you gone? I can't find it anywhere..."
"Okay." Uncle Clan's voice was hoarse, "I'm old and can't afford to wait, so I'd better get down to business.
Ergou, Feng Xi, why don't you sit down? It just so happens that you businessmen are here, so let's talk things over thoroughly. "
