I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 221

The group of them found their way to Qian's Villa. When they arrived, the gate was already surrounded by a dense crowd of people.

Zhou Chenyu listened to the heart-rending wails of the family members in front of the door, followed Chen Tongsheng and Baoyu, and squeezed to the front.

At this time, two officers were carrying a stretcher covered with white cloth and landed on the ground at the gate.

Zhou Chenyu moved his gaze to the rear of the stretcher and vaguely saw a section of dead bones at the foot. The bones had turned white.

Her eyes trembled. This was the first time she saw human bones.

After the two officials left, two more people followed behind carrying stretchers, one after another. There were a total of 23 stretchers placed on the entire ground, which was 23 corpses. It was actually more than the handkerchiefs He Zilian provided. seven.

Qian Rushan was burdened with 23 human lives!
Li Xiuju couldn't help but shed tears as she listened to the cries of the family members. "Qian Rushan has harmed so many people, and I'm afraid his time is running out."

Zhou Chenyu looked at the white-haired old man and children under ten years old kneeling on the ground. Some of them had lost their children, and some had lost their parents. But Qian Rushan had harmed so many people, and yet he was allowed to live until now. .

She gritted her teeth and burst into tears, "There are 23 human lives. Even if Qian Rushan dies, I'm afraid he will only go to the eighteenth level of hell and never be reincarnated!"

The discovery of 23 bodies in the dry well of Qian's Villa shocked the entire provincial capital.

Perhaps God also sensed the grief of the 23 families, so it rained several times in Qingshui Town during this restless winter, shrouding it in haze, rain and fog for most of the month.

After several rains, all the water in the paddy field in front of Zhoujia Village overflowed, and the field ridges and rice heads were almost invisible.

It was raining in the winter, and the country people couldn't go anywhere. They could only hang out at their neighbors' houses in the village. So, Li Xiuju and Zhou Huilan gathered at Shuqing's house to talk about everyday things.

There was a medium-sized rain falling outside the yard. Soybean was lying on his stomach at the door, looking at the rain. From time to time, he stretched out a hoof and rubbed the accumulated water droplets nervously. Before it touched the water, he suddenly retracted it. Wangwang screamed twice in fright.

Zhou Chenyu and Wan Qiu gathered around Hongmei's son, teasing him and pinching his chubby smiling face. The three of them had a great time playing.

Several old women were sitting around the charcoal pot, warming themselves over the fire and making clothes. The red charcoal pot was roasting the newly made sweet wine. The soaked glutinous rice grains were rolling in the stove, and bursts of sweet wine aroma wafted out. .

Hongmei came from the kitchen carrying the kneaded glutinous rice balls and said, "Baoyu, help me lift the lid and I'll add some more glutinous rice balls."

Baoyu, who was sleepy, heard the sound and reached out to grab the stove cover in a daze. As a result, it was so hot that he retracted his hand like lightning, "Huhu." The hot man woke up immediately.

Hongmei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Oh, my pig brain, I forgot to remind you, blame me. But is it hot?"

"It's your fault, Baoyu is always careless in doing things." Li Xiuju had no choice but to stop her sewing, took the cloth and opened the cover, and said distressedly: "Hongmei, you are not too tired to panic, it's not easy to get here" Kong, you should sit down and talk with us, why are you making glutinous rice balls?"

"I took the opportunity to take a rest secretly, and you were so busy that you gave us old ladies an advantage." Zhou Huilan also smiled, and helped add the glutinous rice balls to the stove, stirred them evenly, and started cooking.

Hongmei just smiled and explained to herself: "Auntie, it's rare for you to come to my house and talk to our grandma. How can I let you go back with an empty stomach? Besides, it's just a matter of a few glutinous rice balls. It sounds like It seems like our family has been depleted.”

Li Xiuju smiled so hard that she rolled her eyes and leaned into Grandma Wang's ear, "Old lady, you have to take care of this girl. She is so generous and doesn't know how to feel sorry for herself."

Grandma Wang stretched out her wrinkled hand, covered Hongmei's cold palm, and smiled kindly:
"The meaning of red plum is what I mean. If you can eat a bowl of sweet rice dumplings with sweet wine, our family will not be depleted. If you have the stomach to finish the meal, then I will admire you." "That's right, my grandmother, mother-in-law and I One heart. Don’t even think of trying to provoke us.”

Hongmei smiled happily. The stool was not yet warm. Seeing that the glutinous rice balls were almost ready, she calmly got up and went to get the bowl.

Baoyu rushed out to help, "Sister-in-law Hongmei, give it all to me."

Hongmei carefully held the bowl in her hand, "Baoyu, this bowl is very heavy. You can take the top few."

"to make!"

Baoyu took a few more bowls into his hands, which lightened Hongmei's burden.

Zhou Huilan couldn't sit still, picked up a spoon, and helped scoop the sweet wine glutinous rice balls into bowls. She gave a bowl to Grandma Wang first, and then stuffed two more bowls into Baoyu's hand, "Come on, handsome boy, I'll give it to you first." The two sisters sent it over. They don't have a charcoal pot there. Have some sweet wine to warm yourself up."

"okay."

Baoyu walked over with two large bowls of sweet wine glutinous rice balls and said, "Sisters, please use it slowly."

Zhou Wanqiu was flattered, "Baoyu, why are you..."

Zhou Chenyu looked at his little trick and glared at him angrily, "You brat. Your skin is itchy again, isn't it?"

Baoyu took three steps back and said with a sly smile: "Sister, why are you always so fierce? You can't be like this, do you know? Speak more gently."

Zhou Chenyu took a deep breath, "Why?"

Baoyu raised his eyebrows obediently, "Why do you think it is? What if my brother-in-law sees it..."

After realizing it, Zhou Wanqiu couldn't help but smile.

"Zhou Baoyu, I have to skin you today..." Zhou Chenyu scolded angrily. Hearing the sound, the children next to him looked at her with wide eyes in shock, as if they were curious about how the gentle sister in front of them had changed.

Zhou Chenyu couldn't help but put away his anger when the child saw him. He sat down, changed his expression and smiled sweetly at the child:
"Don't be afraid, my aunt is not fierce at all, she is gentle and kind."

As if he could understand Zhou Chenyu's words, the child immediately grinned, revealing his two baby teeth with pointed corners, which were so cute that his heart melted just looking at them.

Hongmei came over with sweet wine glutinous rice balls and caught a glimpse of the uncontrollable smile on Zhou Chenyu's face. She came over and guarded the elderly people behind her, and said with a joking smile:
"Chen Yu, I see you like children so much, why don't you hurry up and have one?"

"Sister-in-law Hongmei, what you said is as if I can give birth if I want to?" Zhou Chenyu replied while wiping the saliva from the child's mouth. After wiping away, he realized that there was something in Hongmei's words.

She slowly raised her head and met Hongmei's meaningful smile.

Hongmei came over with a smile and raised her eyebrows, "Chen Yu, last time I saw that official, I thought he was quite good. What? You don't like this?"
