Chapter 174: Fear of the Unknown
It wasn't until this group of people walked cleanly that the shops and houses on both sides opened their doors and windows and poked their heads out, Su Jin sighed secretly in his heart, saying that evil does not prevail over righteousness, looking at this posture, this group of people has a huge shadow in the hearts of the people, and they can't be blamed for being cowardly and afraid, it can only be said that honest civilians really can't do anything about these gangsters and ruffians.
Everyone gathered around and talked about it, Su Jin fed the Zhu leper and ate donkey dung and cow dung, everyone saw it in their eyes, and they were extremely relieved, but at the same time, they were secretly worried about this little official.
"This little official, please speak here." An old man bowed his hand to Su Jindao.
Su Jin followed him to the side and said, "What does the old man have to say?" ”
The old man said: "The little official has a rough road, he is really a good man, and the little old man admires it very much." ”
Su Jin said: "I also saw that they deceived people too much before they made a move, so many people beat Lao Jiang alone, and everyone fought like that, which is also too arrogant." ”
The old man nodded and said, "What the little official said is that if you dare to ask the little official, it shouldn't be a native of Ying Tianfu." ”
Su Jindao: "I am from the lower Luzhou Mansion and came to study at Yingtian Academy. ”
The old man sighed and said, "No wonder, no wonder." ”
Su Jin heard what he said and said: "My husband has something to say, please make it clear, do you not agree with the matter of suitable talents?" Do these guys still need to be polite to him? ”
The old man hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Where did this come from, the little officials came to the rescue, the little old man and the villagers were extremely admired, and the evil anger in my heart came out, and we admired the little officials tightly; It's just that we're worried about the safety of the petty officials, hey! ”
Su Jin frowned and said, "Did my husband say that this group of people would come back to find trouble?" ”
The old man said with a sad face: "The little official doesn't know, this leading ruffian is named Zhu Lezi, and he is an overlord in the southern city of Yingtianfu, who dares to provoke him in every household in Nancheng, not because of how he is, but because there are people behind him to support him, it is common for him to beat and hurt people in Nancheng, the government turns a blind eye, and ordinary people who dare to provoke him have no trouble incurring a disaster." ”
Su Jin nodded secretly, as he thought, this kind of ruffian dares to be so arrogant, it must be acquiesced by the government, or the government doesn't pay attention to this matter at all, and even collusion is unknown, and there must be a backing figure behind this kind of ruffian, maybe not very big, but at least in the Yingtianfu realm, it seems that the matter will not end here.
But Su Jin didn't have time to think about this, seeing that Lao Jiang was almost killed, even if he made up his mind to stop meddling in his affairs and study hard, he had to come to the rescue, as for the consequences, he didn't think too much.
"Relax my mind, we are in charge of this matter, if they come back to find something, they will not be scared of them, if the government comes to ask, please ask the villagers to testify."
The old man said with a gray face: "Do you testify?" Don't dare to do this, the little old man doesn't dare to wade into this troubled water, it's better for the little officials to leave early, don't wait for them to come to the door, but they won't be able to get out of it......"
Before he finished speaking, he was pulled by a mother-in-law next to him with white eyes and pulled his sleeves and left, and the mother-in-law muttered and scolded: "You old immortal, what are you talking about here, do you want to harm more than a dozen of our family to live a stable life?" This broken mouth just can't be controlled. ”
The old man's face was full of embarrassment, he was pulled and staggered, Shang Zi turned his head and said with a smile: "Little official, the little old man is too talkative, you have the right to be the little old man and didn't say anything, it's better to leave Ying Tianfu quickly." ”
Su Jin was extremely depressed in his heart, it seemed that these people were bullied so hard that they didn't even dare to talk about it behind their backs, so it reminded Su Jin to be cautious about this matter.
Su Jin walked back to the crowd of onlookers with some unwillingness, and arched his hand: "Fellow villagers, you must have seen the whole process, if the government comes to ask in the future, please also ask the villagers to speak up and be a witness." ”
Su Jin didn't say anything, but as soon as he said this, everyone who was still sighing around seemed to be an agreement, and they ran away without a shadow in an instant, closing the doors and windows one after another, and not even poking their heads out of the middle.
Su Jin scratched his head and was silent, Xiao Sui'er scolded: "These selfish people don't even dare to testify, those ruffians bullied them in the future, see who will help him." ”
Huanniang said softly: "No wonder they are, I think they were bullied ruthlessly, how dare ordinary people offend these ruffians, if they get into trouble, they won't even be able to live in the future." ”
Xiao Sui'er scolded to herself: "A group of cowards. ”
Su Jin thought for a while and said: "I think so, carry Brother Jiang to where we will raise it first, and then Lang Zhong will come and lead me directly, lest those people come back to retaliate, but they will be entangled, we are not afraid, but we can't spend it here, this shop will be closed and rested, and it will not be too late to open the door when Brother Jiang is well." ”
Aunt Zhao has long been crying and crying without her opinion, the old Jiang face is like a golden paper, and she doesn't know if she can be saved, and the matter of the shop is not within her consideration at all, as soon as Su Jin spoke, Aunt Zhao knelt down and kowtowed to Su Jin like grabbing a life-saving straw, and Zhao Hu also knelt down busily, obviously thanking Su Jin for his rescue and kindness.
Su Jin hurriedly asked someone to pull them up, lifted Lao Jiang up with the door panel, closed the door of the shop and walked towards his house.
Lang Zhong's diagnosis was that Lao Jiang had broken two ribs, his left leg was also broken, and his internal organs were also shocked, and the injury was really not light; Na Langzhong prescribed three prescriptions in a row, telling everyone to boil the medicine at different times for the patient to take, and warned the patient not to get up and move, and to stay in bed for half a year to have any hope of recovery from trauma; As for the wounds in the lungs, it can only depend on Lao Jiang's creation, and it may be redeemed by the medicine of dredging and conditioning, but I don't want to do a little heavier physical work in the future.
Aunt Zhao let out a sad voice, Lao Jiang's life is equivalent to being wasted, but once the pillars of the family fall, life will inevitably be difficult in the future, and the children in the family are not yet adults, and the days after this will be difficult to endure.
Everyone also followed with compassion, Xiao Sui'er shed tears, she had a good relationship with Aunt Zhao, every time she went to the market, she had to drag Aunt Zhao with her, Aunt Zhao also treated her like a daughter, so that Xiao Sui'er, who had lost the love of her parents since she was a child, felt quite warm, and at this time, seeing Aunt Zhao's family suffer a catastrophe, she naturally felt a bad feeling.
Su Jin took out a silk handkerchief and handed it to Xiao Sui'er and said: "Don't cry, when you cry, the sister-in-law of the Jiang family is not even more sad, the brother of the Jiang family is fortunate to have no worries about his life, go and persuade her not to let go of her sorrow." ”
Xiao Sui'er sobbed and said: "How will the life of my aunt and uncle live in the future, I can't work anymore, what kind of work is the whole family pointing to?" ”
Su Jin smiled dumbly and said: "What's so difficult about this, the elder brother of the Jiang family can go to my Su family after he recovers from his illness, although he can't do heavy work, it's always okay to help sweep the yard and cut the flowers and plants, not to mention Aunt Zhao, such a capable person, there are few such people in my house, but I don't know if my brother and sister-in-law are willing to go to Luzhou to live." ”
Aunt Zhao stopped her grief when she heard this, knelt down for Su Jin again, and said again and again: "Su Xiaoguan, my family must have accumulated great virtue in the previous life, and I can meet a good person like you in this life. ”
Lao Jiang, who was a little more conscious on the hospital bed, also thanked him vaguely, Xiao Sui'er also broke into tears and smiled, and hurriedly took Aunt Zhao's hand and said: "Auntie, don't cry anymore, the princess has agreed to take it in, the future will be much better than now, the first thing now is to cure my uncle's illness, and don't worry about other things." ”
Su Jin couldn't see such a scene, stayed for a while, and felt very depressed, so he turned around and walked out of the house and came to the courtyard.
At this time, it was already sunset sinking into the ground, and the sky and earth were blue and white, Su Jin let out a long breath, let the depression in his heart decrease slightly, and began to seriously think about what kind of consequences this matter would bring, originally planned to study with peace of mind and not ask about the world, but there are always these things coming to the door, and people can't ignore them.
In Ying Tianfu, Su Jin has no friends and acquaintances, and there is no place to discuss, the only thing that can be discussed is Yan Biyun, if this matter ends here, forget it, if the other party comes to the door, there must be a countermeasure.
The crux of the problem is that I don't know who the other party is backstage, and I don't know what to do at the moment, and wait and see what happens before making a decision.
