Chapter 112: Family
The mule cart ran wildly and arrived in about half an hour.
When they arrived, it was noon, and many old men and women who had lunch leaned against the wall to bask in the sun and chat about gossip.
Zhou Qing had been here for selling Feng characters and Spring Festival couplets, and was familiar with these old ladies.
As soon as she came, a young wife smiled and said, "It's over, when this guy comes, the copper plate I put in my pocket can't help but jump into his pocket again."
The few people next to her laughed.
Zhou Qing looked at everyone's attitude and guessed that Wang Le might not know anything about it.
After leaving Li Er to look at the car, Zhou Qing walked up with a smile in men's clothes, "Sister, look at your copper plate. I'll see it after the spring of the New Year."
The young wife crossed Zhou Qing's shoulder and looked at the mule cart.
"Aren't you here to sell things?"
Some were disappointed.
"Well, I'm here to find Wang Le. I don't know how his house will go for the first time."
When Zhou Qing mentioned Wang Le, an old lady next to her snorted coldly.
"His family moved out a few days ago! He moved out sneakily without saying a word. He still owed me twelve copper coins and never paid them back. I've been in trouble for eight lifetimes."
As he said that, the aunt turned her eyes and looked at Zhou Qing.
"You guy, are you friends with Wang Le? Why don't you give it back to me for his family? When you see him, you will ask him for it?"
Zhou Qing...
Auntie, do you think I'm a big shot?
He smiled and Zhou Qing said, "I am here to collect debts in the near future. Has his family moved away?"
Several people around nodded.
"It's been three or four days since I moved away."
“Do you know where you moved?”
The old lady shook her head, "If I knew, I wouldn't be able to get back the money!"
"Can you go to a relative's house?"
As he spoke, Zhou Qing dispersed some malt sugar he bought on the road.
After taking the candy, everyone treated Zhou Qing more and more intimately.
"Relative? Only his family, where did they come from? His family has been in the village for so many years, and he has never heard of any relatives." An old lady carefully took the candy into her pocket and said.
An old lady next to her said, "Yes, the Wang Le family has no relatives, his father has no brothers and sisters, and his mother is a refugee who begs."
Zhou Qing touched the back of his head, looking puzzled.
"Since they have no relatives, why did they move out for the New Year? Where did they move out? Have you got rich? Why don't you pay me back when you get rich!"
The young wife spat.
"Get rich? Just his family? Unless Wang Le became an official in high school, he would make a fortune!"
"Yes, Wang Le's father is a cripple man, honest and timid, and his mother has always been in a bad state. What kind of money can he make! I have been studying for Wang Le over the years, and the poor family is left to eat braised vegetables."
"Fortunately, Huaishan Academy in Qingyang Village accepts students without plagiarism, otherwise, how could Wang Le read this book?"
As they spoke, everyone's topic changed to complimenting Huaishan Academy.
Zhou Qing couldn't be happy at all when he heard that his academy was praised.
"Before Wang Le's family moved away, there was nothing strange about it?"
Suddenly, Zhou Qing interrupted everyone's discussion.
An old man suddenly thought of something and said to Zhou Qing: "You said that, I remember, do you remember that a few days ago, the girl from the Wang Le family followed the people to catch fish and fell into the ice hole. After being rescued, she was burned to death."
When the old man mentioned it, an old lady slapped her legs and said, "Yes, it's because of this. Wang Le's mother also went to my house to borrow money."
"You borrowed her?"
"How can it be? Just like his family, it's not that I'm cruel and desperate to save me. I really can't repay you if I borrow it. I'm also a few copper coins in my family."
"What happened to his girl later?" Zhou Qing asked.
The young wife said, "I didn't see you to ask for a doctor."
The aunt next to him followed and said, "Yes, I didn't hire a doctor, and then his family suddenly moved out."
"No one has ever come to Wang Le's house during this period?"
Several people around him shook their heads and said they hadn't seen each other.
The young wife smiled and hit Zhou Qing's shoulder, "Brother, why are you doing so intimately? You shouldn't have a crush on Wang Le's sister!"
The people next to him burst into laughter.
Zhou Qing said, "I am thinking about my money and want to find some clues to see if I can find Wang Le. By the way, his family moved out, so was his house sold?"
"I haven't heard of anyone buying it! Who wants it if he has the broken house?"
"This is wrong. His family has no money, no relatives, and has not sold a house. Where can I move out? Could it be that he went to the city to treat Wang Le and his sister?" Zhou Qing asked with cold red hands.
The aunt who first said that Wang Le’s family moved away immediately said: “Impossible! It’s just moving away!
His family has not shown up for several days. I am thinking about my copper coins and went to find the patriarch.
The patriarch sent a young man with straight legs in the village to jump into his yard and saw that everything was gone. This was not moving away!"
The people next to him nodded and agreed.
Seeing that there was no more clues, Zhou Qing asked Wang Lejia's address and left.
There is a short mud wall at the east end of the village. The wooden door is mottled with New Year's pictures posted last year, and a large rusty lock is hung on the door.
Lie on the low wall and look into the yard.
The doors and windows were closed, and a jujube tree was dry in the yard.
"Do you want to go in and take a look?" Li Erli asked in a low voice on the side of Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing lay on the wall, staring at the empty yard.
"You said, where can the Wang Le family move?"
Li Er was stunned and immediately said, "It should be the one who bribed him to take them in."
"If they were taken in, they would definitely have taken in Chen Guang from Chenbei Village and Gaohe from Gaojia Village."
This is not to take in one person and two people, but to take in three families.
These are more than a dozen people.
Are these people going to be arranged to live together?
Or, the man arranged three houses.
If it was three houses, this person would be rich.
Can......
What's the purpose?
Have money to hold it?
Could it be that Zhou Huaihai really made such a big deal to frame her father?
It doesn't feel like it!
As her father said, the goal of being a scholar-official master was Hu Weiyue.
After thinking about it for a moment, the two of them headed straight to the next stop, Chenbei Village.
When they arrived in Chenbei Village, it was already dark.
Fortunately, Zhou Qing has been here before, and is not too unfamiliar with the people here.
After a little inquiry, I found out that Chen Guang's family had also moved out.
It was also three or four days ago.
What's even more surprising is that Chen Guang had a younger brother who suddenly fell from a tree while playing outside and fell down his leg.
Chen Guang's family is poor and cannot watch his younger brother break his legs, but he cannot take out his spare money to hire a doctor.
It is almost the same as the situation in Wang Lejia.
And Chen Guang's parents are also honest and honest people.
How could such a coincidence be there!
Next stop, Gaohe Home.
As Zhou Qing expected, the situation of Gaohe family was exactly the same as that of Wang Le and Chen Guang.
They are all poor parents who are honest and need money to save their lives.
