Liang Yuanque poked Zhuang Youjie beside him and asked him to look downstairs and make a judgment.
Zhuang Youjie saw that it was indeed Fusha introduced to him by A Shiya at noon, and nodded towards him.
Their movements alerted Ashiya, who was sitting across from her, and she looked out the window curiously, "Oh, it's Sister Fusha."
Liang Yuanque pretended not to know, "Ah, so this is the lady you mentioned. Why do you feel that her dress is different from ordinary people?"
Liang Yuanque walked in the village twice and met many young daughters.
Either it has no decoration at all like Ashiya, or its head is decorated with some elegant silver jewelry and brightly colored flowers.
She is really the only one with white flowers like Fusha.
"At that time, Sister Fusha's husband passed away. According to the rules in our village, her husband must be mourned within three years after his death. He cannot participate in public activities or wear bright clothes, so she looked like this."
Ashiya explained to him.
"Oh, that's right." Liang Yuanque nodded.
It seems that the only young widow who is still in the mourning period is Fusha, so her features are quite obvious and easy to find.
While they were talking, the dishes they ordered arrived. According to Ashiya, there were no waiters in the restaurant, and the boss's family members were busy with the work.
The whole restaurant is busy and prosperous. If you want to be busy, it seems you need to have enough family members.
In fact, Shuizhai has maintained a rule of not marrying outsiders for many years. Although we don’t know the relationship between the first batch of Shuizhai tribesmen who came here to set up a village, but after so many years of marriage, the entire Shuizhai The people inside are basically all relatives.
In other words, if we really want to talk about numbers, everyone is family with everyone.
Maybe if this situation continues to develop, maybe Shuizhai will soon be destroyed, because Liang Yuanque has discovered some strange-looking children on the roadside, and roughly judged that they were diseases caused by incest marriages.
Alas, I hope the reformists will win in the future.
But this is not what he needs to care about at the moment. The future of Shuizhai is not something he can interfere with. He just needs to do what he wants to do first.
So he continued chatting with A Shiya calmly, "If you want to say this, we also have rules during the mourning period, but generally the family members of the deceased don't go out much during the mourning period."
Ah Shia seemed a little angry when she said this, "Yes, Sister Fusha's elders asked her to do the same, but there is no one else in her family!"
"Both her husband's family and her mother's family are unwilling to accept her, so she has to eat and survive. If she doesn't go out to buy food and drink supplies, will she starve to death at home?"
Zhuang Youjie, who was eating vegetables on the side, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Is it so serious?"
"Yes," Ashiya sighed as she spoke, "it's already pitiful that she lost her husband. Her husband's family and her mother-in-law's family still thought she was unlucky and refused to accept her. She has been very strong for being able to persist until now. .”
Zhuang Youjie smacked his lips, thinking of Liu Yun who had also lost his partner, "I would like to ask, don't you guys have a mourning period?"
Ashiya shook her head, "Anyway, I've never heard of a man mourning his wife."
Liang Yuanque smiled contemptuously, "It turns out that no matter what kind of cultural system it is, it always likes to bully women."
Zhuang Youjie had a mouthful of hot vegetable soup stuck in his throat, and he didn't know how to answer his words.
However, Liang Yuan continued speaking on his own, "Ashiya, does Sister Fusha live near here?"
"Yes, that's why she often comes here to buy things. She is very obedient and doesn't go far away. She only moves around home." Ashiya was still immersed in her injustice against Fusha.
Liang Yuanque nodded, striking while the iron was hot, and before Ashiya had time to react, he quickly uttered another exclamation,
"Then her family should be quite big. Didn't you say before that her husband likes to entertain foreigners?"
This seemed to be an exclamatory rhetorical question, but it actually presented Ashiya with two options.
If she answers no, she will inevitably ask what Fusha's home is like subconsciously.
If she answers yes, then Liang Yuanque made the right bet, and can just rule it out based on these characteristics.
However, Ashiya also gave him an unexpected surprise.
"Yes, her house is four stories high. Her husband was very capable during his lifetime. He was the first to build a four-story wooden building in the village. He originally planned to have many children and live together, but in the end, alas..."
Asiya said, and sighed again, "How do you put it in Chinese, worldly affairs..."
"Everything in the world is impermanent." Liang Yuanque continued with a smile.
He was simply too talkative, and Ashiya inadvertently narrowed the scope of his search. Fusha's home was near a restaurant, and it was a four-story wooden building.
As they walked all the way, Liang Yuanque quietly observed that there were not many four-story wooden buildings near the big restaurant.
Perhaps it was because things were going so smoothly that Liang Yuanque took the risk and took a step further. He continued to say to A Shiya in a normal tone,
"So, after her husband passed away, this four-story wooden building never received guests again?"
This question was indeed too risky. Ashiya, who had always been innocent and unsuspecting, became alert. Her expression immediately changed, and her eyes became covert.
"You, why do you ask that?"
Liang Yuanque knew something was wrong, stepped on a thunderbolt, and immediately changed his mind and said, "I think Sister Fusha must be quite lonely. Her husband is gone and her family does not accept her. She is very pitiful."
Feeling that Liang Yuanque was empathizing with Fu Sha, Ashya's heart couldn't help but become a little softer towards him.
After Fusha's husband passed away, many people in the village ostracized her. Men would have inexplicable resentment towards her, and some women would also think that she was full of bad luck and kill their husbands.
This was the first time Ashiya saw a man taking pity on Fusha. It was just as Fusha said,
"People outside are different. Some people's thoughts are difficult for them to come into contact with in the village."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Liang Yuanque pretended to vomit after taking a sip of soup, covered his mouth, bent down, and kicked Zhuang Youjie under the table.
Ashiya was startled, "What's wrong with you?"
Zhuang Youjie hurriedly helped him up and wanted to take him to the toilet to solve the problem. Ashiya was very worried and wanted to follow but Zhuang Youjie stopped her and asked her to look at the dishes on the table to avoid being taken away by the waiter.
This is the largest restaurant in Shuizhai. There is a toilet inside. Zhuang Youjie helped Liang Yuanque go to the toilet on the second floor and found that although it was not very modern, it was very clean.
After the two entered the men's room, Liang Yuanque quickly closed the door, opened the wooden window and jumped down.
Zhuang Youjie was startled and quickly grabbed him, "I'm going, are you in such a hurry?"
"The fight is quick, I'll be back soon." Liang Yuanque put his hands on the window frame.
"No, give me a specific time!" Zhuang Youjie still pulled him, "I have to be mentally prepared, right?"
Liang Yuanque thought for a while, "Fifteen minutes. If I don't come back by the time limit, you can jump out of the window and run out of the alley to find Mr. Wonton."
"Fine."
Ever since he left, Zhuang Youjie had been staring at his watch anxiously. However, within ten minutes, a figure climbed up from the open window.
"Hey, what's going on?"
Liang Yuanque kicked open the locked door, pulled Zhuang Youjie and ran out of the toilet, "Run first, brother, I'll explain to you on the way!"
At the same time, Zhuang Youjie felt the sound of footsteps coming from all directions in the restaurant!
