Chapter 801 Completely Honest
Chapter 801 Completely Honest
After hearing what the young soldier said, the onlookers had no objections.
After all, the Xia family's persecution of the Sun family, the widow Lin, and the Wang Cuilan family was real, and it makes people panic and despair just thinking about it.
No one wants such bad luck to happen to them, and naturally no one wants to be involved in anything related to the Xia family.
It seems that if you touch anything from his house, you will be unlucky.
Some people were even whispering, "Oh my! Don't dare take anything from the Xia family! Who knows if you take something from them, will the vengeful ghosts from underground come looking for you at night?"
There are so many wronged souls buried under the Xia family’s house!
Well, just thinking about it makes me tremble with fear, so I stopped watching the excitement and quickly dispersed in groups of three or two.
Xiao Gao asked Mrs. Liao, "Can we go now?"
Ever since she heard that they had to go to the Xia family to get food, Mrs. Liao's legs have been trembling.
She resisted, she didn't want anything from the Liao family!
She was also afraid that the wronged souls in the underworld would haunt her!
She kept her face stiff, but managed a smile: "Little brother, let me make a deal with you. Can you please not give up the Xia family's things?"
That smile is uglier than crying.
Xiao Gao was very good-tempered and asked, "Why?"
Mrs. Liao thought there was a chance, and with her half-closed eyelids, she rolled her eyes and spoke again:
"We were hurt so badly by the Xia family that we feel uncomfortable when we see their food. This... little brother, you see, my grandson was frightened by their family and became sick. This is just right. He definitely doesn't dare to eat their food!"
Xiao Gao's face turned serious. "This is a new society with new ideas. Comrade Liao, please be mindful of your words and actions and don't spread feudal superstitions!"
"Since your grandson is in poor health, he needs more nutrition!"
"Do you have any food at home?!"
Even though Mrs. Liao was illiterate and slow-witted, she understood the meaning of his words.
If she answered now that there was no food, she would have to get food from the Xia family.
If she answered now that there was food, then her previous complaints about her family's miserable situation would be false and she would be deceiving the organization. She might even be punished!
She didn't know what the punishment would be, but because she didn't know, she became even more afraid and panicked.
Therefore, at this moment, she could not say that there was food at home even if she was beaten to death.
So he stammered, "No, no, I really can't make ends meet."
Xiao Gao said, "Let's go, I'll take you to get some food."
He has a new seal in his hand. Once the door is opened, the seal will be invalid and a new seal will need to be put on.
Mrs. Liao complained bitterly, but she couldn't say anything.
Her grandson Feifei was already sensible. Although he didn't quite understand their words, he understood that they had to go to the Xia family to get something.
He subconsciously shrank back in fear and resisted: "Grandma, I don't want it! I don't want it!"
But his protest was suppressed by Mrs. Liao.
Xiao Gao and the other two soldiers turned around when they heard the noise and deliberately asked, "What's wrong? Don't we have to go anymore?"
Mrs. Liao quickly pulled up her wrinkled face and smiled: "No, no, the child is ignorant, you don't need to bother with him!"
When they saw the soldiers entering the yard, the two widows, Lin and Sun, were frightened and came out of the house, thinking that something serious had happened again.
But I was told that I could go to Xia’s house to search for food?
Although the two widows Lin and Sun were surprised, they did not resist. They quickly went back to the house, took the basket and cloth bag, and went into the Xia family's house to search.
First go to Old Man and Old Lady Xia’s house, then to Old Man Xia’s main house.
Because they knew that the old couple's house had the most rice and Boss Xia's house had the most meat!
Sure enough, they also found a lot of white rice and white flour!
There are also strips of pork belly hanging from the kitchen beams!
The two of them didn't say much, they just kept pretending!
Mrs. Liao originally wanted to give a look to her own daughter-in-law or Widow Lin, asking them to do something to ruin the matter.
But before she could meet their eyes, these two short-sighted guys went in and started packing things!
She was so angry that she turned around and lay down on the bed, whining and complaining about a headache.
Mrs. Liao's youngest son was puzzled when he saw this:
"If we don't take their things, we'll go hungry. This New Year will be terrible. I won't be able to work anymore, and I won't be able to pay my wages. We won't be able to make ends meet! How can you still be so stubborn at this time?"
Mrs. Liao spoke out her true feelings:
"Can you eat the Xia family's food? You don't have to worry about being hunted down by vengeful ghosts! But you can take some of the food and then find a chance to exchange it for money, tickets, or even other food!"
It’s all that unfortunate woman’s fault. She has no sense at all!
unlucky!
If anything happens to anyone in the family in the future, she will kill her!
She was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Outside, Xiao Gao watched them take things, but he didn't care about the food or things they used.
Only when he saw Widow Sun intending to look for something valuable, he reminded her:
"Don't take what you shouldn't. The Xia family's assets will need to be liquidated later. Even if you take it, not only will you have to give it back later, you may also be considered an accomplice and punished together!"
Widow Sun was frightened and became completely obedient.
Let’s not talk about these other people’s episodes for now.
Just talking about Courtyard No. 2, in the afternoon, Huo Yisheng sent Mr. Huang over.
He had agreed to spend the New Year at Ye Shu's house.
He had no children or grandchildren in his life, but he always lived with the soldiers in the army. He had a good mentality and was in good mental state.
So the older he gets, the more he acts like an old child.
As soon as he arrived, the laughter and joy in the yard became even louder!
I played with the children first, and then took Yaya to check on her progress in learning Chinese medicine in recent months.
He was very satisfied with the result. He stroked his beard and boasted to Ye Shu, "In the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the little girl is more talented than you! Not just a little bit better! If you train her well in the future, her future is limitless."
This was the truth, and Ye Shu didn't feel sad after hearing it.
But thinking about the difficulties faced by traditional Chinese medicine in surviving and developing after the rise of Western medicine, she wondered whether Yaya should continue on this path. She had to find time to talk to her and Zhuang Jingjing about it.
After the New Year’s Eve reunion dinner, the children were too young to keep the New Year, so they took the red envelopes from their families, put some Tangguo and melon seeds in their pockets and went to visit relatives and friends. They got a lot of red envelopes and came back excitedly to set off firecrackers for a while, but when they were exhausted, they went to bed on time.
Mr. Huang was old and said he could not hold on any longer, so he asked the young soldier to take him back to the dormitory.
Soon, the couple were the only ones left in the room. Ye Shu thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we just stop staying up all night and go to bed?"
Mainly because it’s too cold!
The man approached from behind, placed his large palm on her waist, and with a slight force, turned her over to face him.
He kissed her, his breath hot and strong: "Okay, listen to my wife."
