"When I came here before, I was a thin and small one."

Master Hua made a gesture, and then said with emotion: "It is said that now he owns a restaurant and earns a few hundred taels a day, and he doesn't forget to buy land to grow vegetables. He is really a hardworking and capable child."

Le Ya was taken aback.

She belatedly realized that what she admired Lu Sheng was completely different from what her father praised.

"A few hundred taels a day?"

Peng Shi on the side was dumbfounded for a moment, "How old is that little girl?"

Master Hua took a sip of tea, "I just heard that I'm just seventeen years old this year."

"Seventeen years old? I'll be good!"

Mrs. Peng always thought that the people in this small village were worthless, but she didn't expect that there was a god-man.

A day's income is several hundred taels, and the Hua family's daily income is barely tens or hundreds of taels, right?

Le Ya blinked, "Apart from that, did Uncle Tao tell you anything else?"

"Other?" Master Hua frowned, "What else?"

"Uh...nothing."

Le Ya smiled, "Father, if there's nothing else, I'll go back to the house first."

Master Hua nodded, "Go."

Peng looked at Le Ya, then looked out, and frowned suspiciously.

She remembered that when Le Ya went out, she obviously brought Xiaofen with her, why didn't she come back with Le Ya when she came back?

"Master, I'm a little tired, I want to go back and lie down."

She rubbed her forehead and made a drowsy expression.

Master Hua sighed softly and nodded, "You can go too."

"That concubine will retire first!"

Mrs. Peng got up, nodded slightly to Master Hua, and then let Xiao Lian help her back to the house.

"What's going on?"

As soon as she returned to the room, she couldn't help asking.

Xiao Lian looked at her puzzled, but she heard her ask: "Did you see it today?"

"See... what?"

This endless question made Xiao Lian feel baffled, so he had to ask cautiously.

"I saw Xiaofen, didn't you see that she went out with Hua Leya's little hoof?"

"Oh, so that's what Madam said!"

Only then did Xiao Lian react, she nodded and said, "I see."

"Right? Let me say that I read it right. I told her to follow Hua Leya, but when she came back, Hua Leya came back alone. Where did Xiaofen go?"

After listening to Peng's words, Xiao Lian also felt strange.

"Could it be that you went to do something for the eldest girl?" Xiao Lian guessed.

"work?"

Peng felt that there was some truth.

"Then... you can ask someone to look after her, and let her come over when she comes back."

"Yes!"

However, Mrs. Peng had someone stare at her all night, until the next morning, she did not see Xiaofen.

While having breakfast, she looked at Le Ya and asked tentatively: "Big girl, I remember Xiaofen went out with you yesterday? Why didn't anyone come back with you?"

Le Ya stopped drinking porridge and looked at her suspiciously, "Isn't it Auntie, did you ask her to go do something?"

"Do...what are you doing? That's your maid, how can I control her?"

Peng's eyes rolled around with guilt.

"But, her contract of prostitution is in the hands of my aunt, how can you not control her?"

Le Ya put down the spoon, looked at her doubtfully and said: "Besides, after she arrived in the town yesterday, she said that it was my aunt who asked her to help with shopping and let me come back first, why? Has she not come back yet?"

"Nonsense, where did I ask her to help with shopping?" Peng felt baffled.

"But, Ah Fu heard what she said so clearly. If you don't believe me, go ask."

Peng Shi suddenly came to his senses, his eyes widened and he said, "That little hoof must have escaped!"

"what happened?"

Master Hua also looked at the two suspiciously and asked.

"It's Xiaofen, the maid sent by my aunt. After I arrived in the town with me, I bought a book and asked her to take it back to the carriage to wait. When I came back, I saw the book but no one was there. I asked Ah Fu about it." I know, it was my aunt who asked Xiaofen to buy things, and she told us not to wait."

Le Ya explained with an innocent face.

Xiaofen's escape did not affect her at all.

But to Peng Shi, it is not only ten taels of silver, but also an eyeliner. Of course, she will feel distressed if she loses it.

"Master, that bastard must have escaped!" Peng seemed like he couldn't even drink the porridge.

Master Hua didn't take it seriously, "I ran away, just buy another obedient one and come back."

"But... just let her go like this?" Peng Shi was very dissatisfied.

"if not?"

Master Hua wiped the corners of his lips, looked at her and said, "It's been a day, if you go after her now, do you think you can still catch up?"

"Master, we can report to the officials!"

Mrs. Peng suggested: "If she dares to escape, let the people in the Yamen help her find her and execute her immediately."

"If you want to report to the officer, you go by yourself."

After saying that, Master Hua stood up, "Le Ya, you will stay at home to take care of your younger brother today, and father will go out on business."

"Yes!"

After Master Hua left, Mrs. Peng slapped the table and stood up, waiting for Le Ya to ask: "Did you let that little hoof go on purpose?"

"I mean?"

Le Ya sneered, "Ah Fu saw it with his own eyes, if you don't believe me, go ask."

Ah Fu belongs to his father, no matter how courageous Mrs. Peng is, he dare not question Ah Fu.

Besides, she didn't let him go, she escaped by herself, so I can't blame her.

"You..." Peng was speechless for a moment.

After a while, she gritted her teeth and asked again: "In that case, why didn't you report to the police when she ran away yesterday?"

"The escaped slave was captured, but he was going to be beaten to death."

Le Ya snorted coldly, "My mother has just been buried, so blood must not be seen at home."

Peng knew that Le Ya let her go on purpose, but she couldn't do anything to her, she was so angry that she almost lost her anger.

Seeing her slapping her chest, Xiao Lian hurriedly persuaded: "Madam, don't be angry, it's not worth it for a runaway slave."

"Help me back, I won't eat!"

She was talking to Xiao Lian, but her eyes were staring at Le Ya bitterly.

Le Ya smiled at her, "By the way, Auntie, I don't need a maid recently, and you don't have to buy any more for me."

If Peng wasn't in power, she wouldn't bother to talk to her.

"Sister, I'm full."

Le Tong put down the spoon, looked at Le Ya and smiled.

Le Ya smiled slightly, "Tong Tong is so good, sister will take you to make new friends today."

"new friend?"

Le Tong blinked, "Will someone play with me?"

In those years when he was in Yuxi Town, except for his father and sister, almost no one played with him.

"Yes, let's go, my sister will take you to meet new friends now."

After rinsing her mouth with tea, Le Ya led Le Tong to get up and go out.

Without Xiaofen following her, she felt much more at ease.

However, compared to her freedom, Le Tong seemed much restrained.

Everyone in the village knew about Le's family moving back.

Le Tong was born after Mrs. Hua left Liuyue Village, so everyone doesn't know him.

However, Le Ya had lived in Liuyue Village for ten years, and her appearance hadn't changed much, so the old people in the village would recognize her as soon as they saw her.

Fang naturally recognized her at a glance.

"Is it Le Ya?"

Even after eight years had passed, Le Ya could recognize Fang at a glance.

She smiled and nodded, "Aunt Tao, it's me."

"Oh, have you grown so big?"

Mrs. Fang pulled her over to look around, and said with a smile: "Back then, I thought about letting you be our boy's wife, but I never thought that you would move away."

Le Ya smiled awkwardly, "Auntie, don't say that, it would be bad if my sister-in-law heard it."

Fang laughed loudly, "Your sister-in-law is in Yuxi Town, so I can't hear you."

"By the way, I heard from your father yesterday that you haven't married yet. Could it be that you haven't found someone you like?"

Le Ya nodded, "That's right."

"Oh, this is going to be difficult."

Fang pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up, "Do you remember Ran boy? You used to play together when you were young."

Hearing Fang's mention of Lu Ran, Le Ya's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly nodded slightly: "I remember."

He has never forgotten, even in his dream, how could he be forgotten?

"Remember?"

Fang looked around and saw that no one was looking this way, so she smiled and said: "Although that kid has been messing around for a while, he has changed his ways now, if you don't mind, when he comes back, you two will look at each other , see if he suits you."

Le Ya blushed, "Auntie!"

"Hahaha, okay, okay, Auntie will stop talking."

Only then did Fang turn her attention to Le Tong who was following Le Ya.

"Is this your brother? What's his name?"

"It's called Le Tong."

Le Ya pulled Le Tong over and introduced with a smile: "This is Aunt Tao, the mother of my sister's friend, hurry up and call someone."

Hearing this, Le Tong hurriedly shouted obediently: "Hello, Aunt Tao!"

"Oh, good boy, so good!"

She touched Le Tong's head, and then asked Le Ya, "By the way, where are you two brothers and sisters going? Auntie didn't waste your time, did she?"

"Nope."

Le Ya smiled and said, "I'm just going to take my younger brother to Xiaosheng's side."

"So you're looking for Xiaosheng? Then hurry up."

Le Ya nodded, said goodbye to Fang Shi, and then took Le Tong to continue walking to the village.

In the vegetable field.

Lu Sheng was holding a plate of snacks, squatting aside and watching Lu Paddle and Lu Xin playing with three colors.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-"

Sanse, who was dazed by Lu Xin, lay on the ground and screamed non-stop.

"Sister, it's tired, let's play again later."

Seeing Sanse get down on the ground, Lu Pao hurriedly pulled Lu Xin aside to rest.

"Sure enough, it's still lively here."

When Lu Sheng heard footsteps, he turned his head and saw Le Ya walking in with a little boy smiling.

"Sister Le Ya is here."

Lu Sheng hurriedly stood up, looked at Le Tong and said, "This is little Le Tong, right?"

Le Ya smiled and nodded, "Le Tong, hurry up and say hello to Sister Xiaosheng."

"Hello, sister Xiaosheng!"

Le Tong is seven years old, one year older than Lu Yao.

When Lu Yao and Lu Xin saw guests coming, they hid aside habitually.

Seeing Lu Sheng waving at them, the two got up and walked over.

"Second sister, what's the matter?"

Lu Paddle led Lu Xin and stood behind Lu Sheng, looking at Le Tong curiously.

"This is sister Le Ya, who has been to our house, and this is brother Le Tong. You can take him to play with him in a while."

It was rare for Le Tong to meet his peers, but when he saw the two people opposite him, he couldn't help looking at them curiously.

"Hello, Sister Le Ya, Hello, Brother Le Tong!"

The brothers and sisters shouted in unison.

"You are also good!"

Le Ya reached out and touched the heads of the two of them respectively, and then said to Le Tong: "Le Tong, sister has something to say to sister Xiaosheng, you should go play with younger siblings first."

"Let's go and play together!"

Seeing Le Tong, the two sisters were hesitant, one of them took him by the hand and walked away.

The children had a lot of fun, and Lu Sheng was almost free-range for the two brothers and sisters, so they either went to the fields to dig mud with the children in the village, or they went to the grass to catch crickets and play.

Every time I come back, my body is covered with mud, but I look very happy.

"Le Tong seems a little afraid of strangers."

Le Ya sighed softly, "Before in Yuxi Town, because of his poor health, he could only stay in the yard to play most of the time, usually I was with him, and when my father came back from work, I would also talk to him. "

"He's not in good health for a reason."

Lu Sheng looked in Le Tong's direction, and said softly: "You were right to move back. If you could move earlier, Aunt Hua might not lose her life."

Le Ya was slightly taken aback when she heard that, "Xiao Sheng, what do you mean by that?"

Lu Sheng looked at her and said in a low voice: "The house you live in Yuxi Town should be bought from someone else, right?"

"That's right." Le Ya nodded, "At that time, we were looking for a house as soon as we arrived in Yuxi Town. It happened that the people in that family said they were going back to their hometown and wanted to buy the house at a low price. My parents saw that the house was spacious and the price was not high. , and bought it directly.”

After Le Ya finished speaking, she looked at her suspiciously again: "Xiao Sheng, how do you know?"

She didn't seem to have talked to Lu Sheng about the house.

"The people in that family didn't sell the house because they wanted to go back to their hometown, but because someone died in that house."

"Dead?"

Le Ya only felt a chill running down her back, "What...how do you say that?"

"If I'm not wrong, it wasn't long before the person died in the house, and it was a person who died with hatred. The man and woman are not known yet, but the body must have been buried in the yard."

As for where to bury it, Lu Sheng doesn't know yet, but the body must be buried in that yard.

"Xiao Sheng, where... did you hear this?"

Seeing her serious expression, Le Ya didn't seem to be joking. For a moment, not only a trace of fear surged in her heart.

"Sister Le Ya, to tell you the truth, my master catches ghosts, and I have learned some."

She looked at Le Ya and said, "The reason why Le Tong is in poor health is because he has been pestered by unclean things for a long time."

Children are young, those things are too yin, and if they are entangled for a long time, the body's resistance will gradually decrease, so they will get sick every now and then.

"You...you mean, Tong Tong is entangled in unclean things?"

Le Ya looked at Le Tong, but saw that he was squatting next to a little milk dog, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"That thing shouldn't have followed, but he is still surrounded by residual Yin energy."

Lu Sheng took out an exorcism talisman, handed it to Le Ya and said, "Here, take it back and get a small sachet for him to carry with him. After a while, he will get better."
