Chang Qingyun got up before dawn again.
After packing up, cooking and eating, he left with his crossbow on his back.
Before he left, he took a look at the yard. It was quiet, even the chickens were asleep in the cage.
He set off towards Jingyanggang.
Mei Liangxin slept until three o'clock in the morning and didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning. I heard that Chang Qingyun went to Jingyanggang to call friends to Chunlou: "I'll pay for today! You can spend whatever you want!"
Chang Qingyun was eaten by a tiger. Aren’t all the wives in the house his?
He can be the groom tonight!
Hahaha, so happy!
Someone knocked on the door next to Chang Qingyun's house.
Chang Qingyun was still out when Lin Caiwei got up. She went to the kitchen to eat the food left by Chang Qingyun. After eating, she took the leftovers to the yard to feed the chickens.
She lamented that when she was at home, white rice could only be eaten during New Years and holidays, but now she used it to feed chickens. It was such a luxury.
When had she become so extravagant?
"Bang bang bang" someone knocked on the door.
Lin Caiwei was a little scared and didn't dare to speak out.
Then a loud female voice rang out: "From the Chang family, are you at home? I'm Mrs. Liu from the house next door."
When she heard a female voice, Lin Caiwei breathed a sigh of relief and went to open the door: "I'm at home. What's wrong with Sister-in-law Liu?"
As soon as she opened the door, Mrs. Liu saw Lin Caiwei. Although she didn't dress up deliberately and was wearing old clothes, she was definitely a rare beauty.
Sister-in-law Liu cursed in her heart: A good-looking vixen.
With a smile on her face, she lifted the cloth of her basket: "When you get married, we are neighbors and we should move around. My family is poor and we don't have much. I picked some wild vegetables here and brought them to you. Don't dislike it. "
"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it."
Lin Caiwei welcomed Mrs. Liu in to drink water.
She was still a little guilty. She had been here for two days and she didn't even think of visiting her neighbors. It was rude of her.
Sister-in-law Liu looked everywhere in the yard.
The yard was empty except for a few chicks.
Still poor, but why does it look different?
She hesitated to speak.
Lin Caiwei poured water for her: "Sister-in-law Liu, I made you laugh. There is no place to sit at home, so I have to trouble you to stand."
Sister-in-law Liu investigated for a while and then said: "I heard that your family went to Jingyanggang to hunt tigers. You know this, right? You from the Chang family are really calm."
"Snapped."
The bowl of water in Lin Caiwei's hand fell to the ground and fell into pieces.
"Going to hunt tigers?!"
Who doesn't know that the tiger in Jingyanggang has been causing trouble to them for a long time, and many people have died in the tiger's mouth.
The government had no choice but to announce a reward for hunting the tiger.
No wonder, no wonder Chang Qingyun said he had a way to repay the debt, no wonder he was wiping his weapons there last night. It turned out that he was going to hunt tigers.
Lin Caiwei's heart tightened.
How many people have gone to Jingyanggang to hunt tigers, but they all never come back!
Sister-in-law Liu took Lin Caiwei's hand and patted it: "So you don't know. Hey, you are also a miserable person. You just got married and you will be widowed soon. It's a pity..."
On the surface, she was comforting Lin Caiwei, but she was actually concerned about Lin Caiwei's reaction.
"From the Chang family, you are so beautiful. It's a pity for me to marry a gambler like Chang Qingyun. Now it's better. He was eaten by a tiger and you will be a widow. Then you can return home. Go and find another husband. With your conditions, what kind of good family can you marry? When the time comes, you will wear gold and silver and eat delicacies from mountains and seas. That is the life you should live."
Sister-in-law Liu received Mei Liangxin's ten taels of silver as a lobbyist.
Chang Qingyun died.
The house belongs to Mei Liangxin.
If the house is not enough to repay the debt, it is natural for him to use Chang Qingyun's wife to pay off the debt.
Of course, Lin Caiwei was beautiful, and Mei Liangxin felt a little sincere, thinking that it was better to take the initiative than to marry by force.
He inquired and found out that Lin Caiwei's eldest sister was married to a government servant. If possible, Mei Liangxin didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
Anyway, his family has a great business, and as long as they have enough money and face, they won't have to worry about Lin Caiwei not wanting to marry him as a concubine.
Yes.
Be a concubine.
Mei Liangxin has already married a wife and has six concubines. If Lin Caiwei comes in, she will be the seventh aunt.
Sister-in-law Liu took Mei Liangxin's money and then came to the door with a basket of wild vegetables.
She doesn't really want to play a good neighbor, but wants to sell Lin Caiwei a favor and let Lin Caiwei treat her as a good person, preferably as a close sister. When Chang Qingyun dies, Lin Caiwei trusts her, she If you say good things about Mei Liangxin in front of Lin Caiwei, Lin Caiwei will always be persuaded by her.
Sister-in-law Liu made a good plan.
Lin Caiwei didn't even pay attention to Sister-in-law Liu's advice to remarry. All she could think about now was that Chang Qingyun went to hunt tigers, and Chang Qingyun might be eaten by the tiger!
She turned around and ran out.
Sister-in-law Liu went to catch Lin Caiwei: "That guy from your house set off before dawn. You can still catch up wherever you go. He has already arrived in Jingyanggang. Maybe he will be killed by a tiger by now." Eat it, you can express your condolences."
Is it too late?
Lin Caiwei was stunned for a moment.
I thought about the short two days I spent with Chang Qingyun, Chang Qingyun’s vigorous work and rest habits, and Chang Qingyun’s cooking skills.
He bought her books, snacks, and chickens to raise.
Give her a recipe to boil water for her.
This man is considerate and warm.
Tears welled up from Lin Caiwei's eyes.
Lin Caiwei wiped her tears with her sleeves, she couldn't let him be eaten like that, leaving his body exposed in the wilderness without any bones left.
After thinking about it, Lin Caiwei ran outside again. This time she was not going to Jingyanggang. This time she wanted to go home and beg her father to find some people to retrieve Chang Qingyun's bones.
When Lin Wenbin knew that Chang Qingyun went to Jingyanggang to hunt tigers in order to pay off foreign debts, his own beard started to puff.
"I told you that you regret your marriage and don't get married. You insist on marrying yourself. Look, something happened just a few days ago. It's not right for a good scholar to gamble and lose the whole family. Now it will be fine. Come on, risk your life. Well, you don’t want to go back. From today on, you are a widow, living at home, and the family will not lack your food."
He didn't agree with the marriage at that time and wanted to break off the engagement, but Lin Caiwei insisted on getting married even though she had severed ties with her family, and she still married herself, which really embarrassed him.
It's only been two days since I got married, and I came back crying like this. What the hell is this?
Lin Caiwei knelt down directly to Lin Wenbin: "Father, I'm begging you. Can you help find some people to recover his bones? We can't let him be exposed in the wilderness. By then, they will all be eaten by wild beasts. "
Lin Wenbin said angrily: "What are you looking for? Where is Jingyanggang? There are tigers there! Is that a joke? He brings food to others himself. He is willing to go. What does it have to do with you? Who dares to go? , he will die if he goes there! Who could he possibly get pregnant if he rushes to be a tiger ration?!"
Lin Wenbin locked Lin Caiwei directly in the boudoir where she used to live.
No matter what, Lin Caiwei would not be allowed to go out today. Going to such a dangerous place would mean death.
