Chapter 79 Not that kind of person

The northwest corner of Datong Square in the southwest of Chang'an City is a place where craftsmen live together.Among them, a few households can take on folk jobs, and most of them are craftsmen subordinate to the Ministry of Industry.Xu Dashi's home is also here.

Because of the collapse of the ritual house, the residential area was shrouded in a sad and gloomy atmosphere.Xu Da's family also hung a white cloth, but his family was poor and the funeral preparations were very simple.The homes of several other injured craftsmen were also gloomy.

Bai Sanxiu frowned, came to the door of Xu Dashi's house, and asked, "Is Xu Dashi's home?"

A woman in sackcloth and filial piety came out with a haggard face.

"Who is the girl looking for?"

"Looking for you."

"I?"

Bai Sanxiu immediately said loudly: "I am the cousin of that passer-by. Because of your man's fault, my brother and second aunt died tragically. Do you have anything to say?"

The woman's sluggish expression moved slightly, and her emotions finally had a slight ups and downs.

"I'm sorry..." She wriggled her lips and said hoarsely, "I'm sorry..."

She just kept saying sorry, and Bai Sanxiu frowned even more, with a bit of anger in her tone: "If someone dies, just say sorry and it's over? Shouldn't you take out the money and pay it to our family? You don’t even come out, just bow here, is your bow very valuable?”

Bai Sanxiu's reprimand quickly attracted the neighbors around, and an elder brother persuaded him: "Old Xu's family was poor, but now that he is gone, his wife doesn't know what to do, she really has no money to compensate you. "

"Then my brother died in vain?"

Another aunt said: "Didn't the government give you a pension?"

"That money has already been used up! They don't need money for the burial of their mother and son? Anyway, you have to give me money to compensate me today, if you don't have it, you have to have it!"

Now the bystanders understand that the co-author is a relative borrowing something to ask for money.

"Hey little girl, you have to forgive others and forgive others."

"I know your family is suffering, but who doesn't! Since the government has already paid compensation, it doesn't make sense for you to come to collect debts from old Xu's wife."

"Why is it unreasonable? I don't care. If she doesn't pay today, I'll call my seven aunts and eight aunts to come together tomorrow! Can you pretend it didn't happen if you killed someone? Is there any reason! Also, I know Her man was not the only one present that day, and everyone else has to pay!"

Listening to her scolding and everyone's persuasion, Xu finally changed from sobbing to crying loudly. Several acquainted neighbors saw the situation and quickly pushed Bai Sanxiu and Xu into the house together.Bai Sanxiu immediately yelled in a panic: "What are you doing? Do you want to hit someone because I came here alone? I, I tell you, my husband will come right away. He is specialized in writing complaints. Once he sues, he will be sure." ..."

"Sister, don't yell, don't yell, we just ask you to come in and talk. How much do you want her to take?"

"It's not her, it's you. I know there were four people there that day, so don't try to run away." After she finished speaking, she made a "five".

"Five...two?"

"What five taels, fifty!"

"What?! We saw your little girl's house, and we treated you politely, but you opened your mouth like a lion!"

"What's none of our business? The superiors said that it was Lao Xu's mistake."

The faces of everyone in the room changed, and they suddenly became angry.Seeing this situation, Bai Sanxiu hurriedly changed the script, put away the reluctance just now, and said in a soft tone: "Now there is a grandma in the house who is more than 70 years old and needs to take medicine. Let's go, who will take care of the old lady? We also asked the government if we could give more, but the official said that this collapse was caused by your craftsmen, and the government's payment is already sympathetic to our family."

After a pause, she said quietly again: "What's more, this incident not only killed two lives. My brother originally had a girl he liked in Beili, and he wanted to save money to redeem it and live a good life. In the end, he was surprised. If she dies, that girl will hang herself! You killed three people, did I blackmail you?"

After listening to Bai Sanxiu's words, Xu finally broke down and shouted: "No, he didn't, old Xu is not that kind of person at all! He has been working for more than 20 years, how could he mess with Xiao Liang!"
