With the help of Yue Fei, Siyang and the drunkard, the dishes were quickly prepared. The husband pulled his wife into the room and said, "My wife, hurry and give me some money. There are guests at home, I'm going to sell a jug of wine." When his wife saw that his husband was showing a rare enthusiasm, she was also very happy. She passed the crushed silver that Yue Fei had given her to her husband, who told Yue Fei and Siyang, "There are very few guests from my Zhang Family. Today, both of you have come.
Yue Fei asked him not to be polite, and Zhang San said, "Yes, yes." After he finished speaking, he hurriedly went to the store to drink. Yue Fei was not in a rush to eat it, especially Siyang. This meal was something that he wanted to taste, especially since it was a game that Yue Fei had specially cooked for her. It was both fragrant and beautiful, as if an aged wine had been brewed in her heart.
With the silver, Zhang San placed several jugs of wine on the table and returned to his bedroom. He rummaged around in his bedroom and called his wife over. He asked her softly, "My wife, where is the 'Sap' in the house?" His wife said disdainfully, "What do you want from me for?" Zhang San said, "I'm useful. Where is it?" His wife said with disgust, "I've already thrown away those despicable things. Don't tell me you have some ill intentions towards that girl again?" Zhang San said hurriedly, "You bastard …" He swallowed his words and said, "Alright, alright, hurry up and take care of the guests." As he said this, he brought back two jugs of wine with his wife to the kitchen. With a face full of smiles, he said, "I'm sorry to have kept you two waiting."
When his wife saw that everyone was present, she served the delicately prepared dishes onto the table. Zhang San was even more enthusiastic, he had already filled Yue Fei's glass full and picked up his own wine glass, "Zhang San is a hooligan, he drinks all his life and loses his face because of the wine. "I didn't expect that after drinking a few more cups outside today, the two of you would come home to make fun of me. Zhang San will apologize to the ladies here, please forgive me!" After he finished speaking, he finished it in one gulp.
Siyang did not have a good impression of Zhang San, so he faked a pleasantries with him. However, Yue Fei was, after all, a person who cared a lot about his character. He raised his wine glass and said, "Over there, I've disturbed you with my little sister. He raised his wine cup and downed it in one gulp. Zhang San's wife only cared about picking dishes out of the bowl. Looking at the thin and yellow face of the child, she could not bear to see him eat, so she called out to Zhang San's wife to feed the child more, and then sent the dishes she had picked up from Zhang San's wife into the bowl. The child, who had not tasted meat for many days, ate with gusto, completely throwing aside his father's cowardice when he was scolding his mother.
Zhang San repeatedly invited Yue Fei to drink, although Yue Fei was also a big drinker, the main house was very polite, and he couldn't afford to be careless, lest he drink too much at the main house, and also cause trouble with his wife. However, Zhang San was very cordial, he finished all the six bottles of wine he had bought, and even asked his wife to go and drink. Yue Fei also tried to persuade her from the side.
Zhang San's tongue seemed to have gotten shorter as he said, "For women, I have a feeling of hate for meeting Brother Yue. I will not stop until it is over. Quickly go and buy wine." Zhang Shi was afraid that Yue Fei would misunderstand her, so she went to the Jiu family to drink. Yue Fei understood in his heart that even though he had drunk six jugs, Zhang San actually hadn't drunk much. As a guest of the Zhang Clan, he couldn't go against his master's wishes; Siyang wanted to persuade Yue Fei not to drink too much, but in front of outsiders, he was afraid of humiliating Yue Fei. Just like that, the two of them drank another six jugs. In the end, Zhang San went under the table and finished it.
After the meal was over, it was already the third day of the month. Zhang Tie's wife helped Zhang San into her bedroom, while Siyang was still sleeping in the west wing. Yue Fei, on the other hand, spent the night in the firewood room. As time passed, Siyang blurrily heard the sound of a quarrel from the east wing. However, it was not easy for her to listen in on the couple's affairs in the middle of the night. She covered her head to prevent her voice from reaching her ears. Later on, Zhang's voice became louder and louder. Later on, she could not hear Zhang's voice.
At this moment, before Siyang was able to calm himself, she heard the crying of the child again. The child's crying became more and more intense, and Siyang couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he got up and stood outside the east wing's door and shouted, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with the child?" Siyang shouted a few times, but there was no movement in the east wing. Only the child was crying.
Siyang felt very puzzled. Even if Zhang Sanjiu slept very soundly after drinking too much, Zhang Qingrui's wife did not drink any alcohol. Could she also be sleeping so soundly? She lightly knocked on the door, but there was still no reply. Siyang beat on the door even more heavily, but before she knew it, the door was gently opened. The room was completely dark. Siyang softly asked, "Sister-in-law, are you there?"
At this moment, Siyang heard a "wuwu" sound. She casually lit up the fire, and in the light, Siyang saw that Zhang Qinghan's wife was tied to the bed, her mouth was stuffed with cotton, and Zhang San was nowhere to be seen. Siyang hurriedly untied Zhang Wife's rope and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? Who tied you up? Where are Zhang San and his group? " Zhang Shi who was rescued by Yue Yang, gasped for breath, and said: "Miss, you and Young Master Yue should quickly run! "Don't worry about me, it might be too late if you're late. Zhang San went to report to the officials. He said that Young Master Yue was the instigator of King Liang's death and that the officials would be rewarded with three hundred silver taels." With that, she used her hand to push Siyang away.
Hearing this, Siyang was angered to the point that his liver broke, he rubbed his teeth. He did not expect that the difference between the husband and wife under the same roof would be this huge, that one of them had a kind heart and the other had committed all sorts of crimes. Siyang thought: Even if Yue Fei and he leave this place, Zhang San would probably not let Zhang Wife off. Thinking of this, she hurriedly left the room, quietly untied her horse, and left the courtyard. Riding on the red horse, she rushed in the direction of Lu An Zhou.
When she was about to reach the drawbridge over the city gate, she finally saw Zhang San's figure. At this moment, the drawbridge began to rise again, and Zhang San called out to the soldiers to open the gate to report the matter to her, but it was too late for her to cross the bridge. She pulled out her sword and used the move "Jade Lady", the treasured sword was like a snake that could fly, carrying a cold light as it pierced Zhang San Xin, and with a miserable cry, she turned around and headed back to Zhang Si Yang's house.
At this time, Yue Fei had already been woken up by his wife and was preparing to go to Siyang. Siyang hurriedly entered the yard and said, "Brother Yue, you should leave quickly! I killed Zhang San, and I do what I have to do by myself. I will wait here for the officials to come and capture me. This matter has nothing to do with you. " Although Yue Fei was shocked, he didn't show it on the surface. He said, "Miss Siyang, to challenge the Liang Wang for your brother is already a person awaiting punishment. It doesn't matter if there's an extra life. You should leave!" Then he turned to his wife, "Sister-in-law, tie me up and hand me over to the government. This has nothing to do with sister."
Zhang Shi hurriedly carried the children on the bed and said: "Young heroes, you can leave now! I don't want you to pay with your lives for Zhang San; the further the better. " Yue Fei and Siyang were stunned. Seeing Zhang's wife hugging her child tightly, they mistakenly thought that Zhang's wife was afraid of getting hurt, so they said, "Sister-in-law, I will kill you to repay for my debt. Yue Fei and Siyang are also people who abide by the laws and would definitely not harm sister-in-law.
Zhang Shi saw that Yue Fei and Siyang had misunderstood her meaning, and hurriedly said, "Little brother, I sincerely wish for you to go. Zhang San is a person who deserves to die, if the girl doesn't kill him today, he would definitely kill her. If you do not believe me, I will leave with the two of you. On the way, I will slowly tell you. " With that, she carried the child on her back, randomly packed some children's clothes, and left the house with Siyang in one hand and Yue Fei in the other.
The sun had already risen, and the children in their cradle were still sleeping soundly. On the way, Zhang Tie's wife told him all of Zhang San's actions, and Yue Fei's hair and hair exploded upon hearing it. It turned out that Zhang San was a hoodlum from Lu An Zhou who ate, drank and gambled with everything he had. He gathered the hoodlums of the street market, bullying men and women, committing all sorts of crimes; secretly colluding with bandits, harming the common people, and dominating a region.
Zhang's wife, Wu, was originally a borderline citizen of the Jin and Song dynasties. Due to the continuous fighting at the border of the Jin and Song dynasties, the Wu family moved southward, but when they entered the land of Lu'an, not only did they loot all their belongings but they also killed the Wu family. It was to protect their daughter that Zhang's father was dismembered by the bandits, and his younger brother, who was not yet an adult, also died at their hands.
With the help of a kind-hearted person, she changed into a man's outfit and stumbled into Lu An Zhou. By this time, it was already very late in the night, and as she begged, she squatted under the eaves to avoid the cold. Due to her extreme exhaustion, she unconsciously fell asleep under the eaves, and when she stretched out her legs to trip the drunk Zhang San, she saw that Zhang San was just a beggar who tripped her body, and with an excuse, she grabbed Wu Shi. Despite Zhang San's drunkenness, she rolled around in the pile of makeup, realizing that the little woman in front of her was Zhang San.
After being raped, Lady Wu had thought of fighting with her life on the line. However, ever since Zhang San had locked her up, he had made these hooligans take turns to stare at her, making her want to die. Not only did he want money, he wanted money as well.
No one could retrieve their corpses for them. The moment she climbed onto the shore, she thought to sell them and bury them, even if she had to serve as a servant for the rest of her life, she was still willing to do it, but she never thought that she would end up like this. So, she steeled her heart and said to Zhang San, "Big brother, as long as you can take back the bodies of your parents and brothers that were killed by bandits, and give them a thin coffin, this little girl will follow you for the rest of her life."
Upon hearing that, Zhang San said, "It's a promise!" Wu Haoyuan clenched his teeth and said: "Yes!" Hearing that, Zhang San laughed loudly and said, "It's not difficult at all. Tomorrow, I will bring you up the mountain to collect your corpse." Although Zhang San had done all sorts of evil deeds, he managed to accomplish it because he was also brothers with these bandits. It wouldn't be a problem for him to collect the corpses of her parents.
His parents and younger brother, who had been alive and kicking for more than ten days, were now nothing more than a pile of bones. After he had finished embalming the remains of his parents, he had buried his parents in a barren hill outside Lu An Zhou's east gate. He had decided to mourn for his parents for seventy-four days, then hanged himself at his parents' grave. After 40 days, she found out that she was pregnant. She cried for her parents, cried for the heavens, cried for her children in her womb, letting all kinds of misfortune befall upon her. She cried until the sun and moon disappeared in the darkness, the autumn wind that rustled her tears dried up.
Then she saw a crow that had not yet regressed fall from the tree, and the crow swooped down at lightning speed to pick up the crow with her beak. The crow flapped its wings and fell out of the crow's mouth, and so on and so forth until she couldn't help but think of the baby in Wu's stomach. Even now, when she couldn't tell if the child was Zhang San's or the others', but life was innocent and fresh, and he didn't have the right to choose his parents, and no one could take away his life. When thinking about this, Lady Wu no longer had any thoughts of suicide. She had to endure the most unbearable humiliation in the world. She had to endure the most unbearable hardships in the world. She had to give birth to a child and raise it.
