Fragrance Returned

Ding Pandi covered his face with his sleeves, lowered his head and walked quickly towards the back of the village. Arriving at the foot of the mountain, we walked south again.

Several villagers looked at Ding Pandi in surprise, but didn't say anything they wanted to say.

Ding Sifu stood at the door. He could no longer see Ding Pandi, so he turned around and closed the door.

Ding Pandi's voice still lingered in his ears.

"Brother, you have to live, no matter how hard it is, you have to live. Wait for me. I will definitely make more money to make the rest of my brother's life easier and atone for my mother's sins. You have to avoid the three rich people. He is better than Your parents are terrible.

"You helped Li Lai, and the second grandpa liked you, so he tried to find a way to ask him to take you out of the house. You are not in good health and can't go out like the second brother. But you are smart and sweet, so you can work as an apprentice in the shop. Ku. It's a little bit harder, but it's better than staying at home.

"I also want to respect Third Grandpa, Second Uncle, Fourth Uncle, Xiangxiang, and Second Brother. If you have any difficulties, they can all help you. Especially Xiangxiang, she is Second Grandpa's baby, and she is smart. You must make friends with her. Okay. Thank her again for my sister..."

My sister finally left, finally left this home.

Ding Sifu grinned.

He sat on the steps and looked at the empty yard. The sun made the ground white, and his parents' faces suddenly appeared in the halo...

Only then did Ding Sifu feel scared, as if boundless fear was about to overwhelm him.

He clenched his little fists and thought hard, how to say something to avoid being beaten, how to say something to make his parents believe his words, and buy his brother and sister Pan time to escape. He has to find a way to leave this home, otherwise his parents will beat him to death by Ding Sanfu who lost his wife's money...

After an unknown amount of time, the noise outside became louder, including Ding Youcai's loud voice.

They came back from the county government office.

Someone asked, "How did Hao decide the penalty?"

Wang said in a loud voice, "Master Qingtian sentenced her to attempted murder and malicious injury to a child. The circumstances were serious. She was sentenced to twenty whippings and was exiled to the north to do hard labor. Oh, it was such a pleasure to hear the cries of that stinky bitch. . I also kowtowed to Mr. Qingtian a few times and thanked him for being the master of the people..."

Wang Youcai said, "Had he not been sentenced to exile, Hao would have been beaten even more severely."

"It's time to beat her and make her do evil."

…

Ding Sifu jumped up and stood up.

He looked up at the sky. The sun was setting in the west. If I hope my brother and sister can run fast, they should have run more than half the distance.

Ding Sifu looked pale and looked at the door quietly.

The door opened and Ding Li was the first to walk in, followed by Wang Youcai and others.

Mrs. Wang looked at the doorpost of the upper room with a happy face.

Except for the youngest son standing there, Ding Pandi was missing.

She ran forward in a few steps and shouted sternly, "Where is that dead girl?"

Ding Sifu took a step back and said weakly, "Run away."

Mrs. Wang grabbed him by the collar and said angrily, "Run away? Tell me, how did you run away and where did you go?"

Ding Sifu shivered and said in a low voice, "In the morning, sister Pan said she was hungry. I saw there was no food in the kitchen, so I went to the second room and asked sister Xiang for two steamed buns for her to eat. After eating the steamed buns, she said she wanted to Shit. I couldn't let her poop in her pants, so I told her to untie the rope and let her go to the latrine, and then tie her up after she pooped. She agreed. But as soon as I untied the rope, she pushed me to the ground. , put on Third Brother’s clothes and ran away.”

Wang was so angry that she slapped her in the face and cursed, "Stupid thing, just believe whatever she says. Tell her where she went."

Ding Sifu cried, "I don't know either. I want to stop her but I can't. I'll see if she runs to the back of the village to see if she's going to her grandma's house."

Ding Sanfu was very angry when he heard that Ding Pandi had run away and stolen his clothes.

If she is gone and cannot be sold for money, where can she find a good wife if she is so ugly?

He cried loudly and kicked Ding Sifu to the ground, "You lame man, I will beat you to death..."

Wang Youcai slapped Ding Sanfu, "It's no use spanking him. Hurry to Hao's house and see if Ding Pandi has gone there."

Wang said, "Let's all go and kidnap that damn girl back. If the Hao family dares not to pay her back, let the Hao family pay for it."

Ding Youcai said, "The Hao family is so poor that they have so much money."

Today it was pronounced that no one from the Hao family even went there and did not recognize the married daughter at all.

Wang said angrily, "If you don't have money, hand it over to someone." Then he held Ding Sifu's ear and cursed, "If you can't find someone, see how I deal with you when I come back."

Ding Youcai, Wang Shi, and Ding Sanfu ran to the door. Seeing that Ding Dafu didn't move, Wang ran back and pulled him away.

Ding Li shook his head and returned to his room with a sad face.

Ding Youshou was even more sad. My family is poor, and there is another Hao family. I will never get another wife in this life. If Pandi cannot be found, Ding Youcai and his wife will definitely hate themselves even more. Not to mention their stepson, there will be no one to support them in their old age.

There are so many prostitutes in the world, and they can survive, why can't she? If you do it well and enjoy good food and drink, it will be much better than living a poor life at home.

Why did that dead girl run away...

Ding Xiang was relieved after hearing Hao's punishment.

Exile is a criminal law second only to the death penalty, and one must suffer the consequences while alive. Hao's crime is serious and this is how he should be sentenced.

She dragged her grandfather and father to her room and told her that Ding Sifu came to her and she helped Ding Pandi escape with money.

"Grandpa, daddy, the fourth rich man is really good. He remembers feelings and is kind. He would rather be beaten than help his younger brothers and sisters. He helped the third brother. We owe him a big favor. Please help him, don't let the uncle and the mother-in-law. Beat him to death. Besides, I was involved."

Ding Zhuang and Ding Zhao were stunned. These two six-year-old children were doing big things.

Although they hated the Hao family and disliked Ding Pan's younger brother, they even disapproved of the Wang family and Ding Youcai selling their nieces to a brothel. They despised the fact that Ding Li, the head of the family, and Ding Youshou, the father of the child, could let it go.

They are worse than six-year-olds.

Xiangxiang stopped talking. No matter what she did, her elders would take care of the consequences for her. Ding Sifu, on the other hand, knew what the consequences would be but still did it. He was a good boy who remembered his feelings.

Wait, Xiangxiang actually knows... the brothel!

The father and son looked at each other. I think she must have heard the dirty talk from the rough guy outside the hospital and was smart, so she knew it.

This child must be educated and become bolder and bolder.

Ding Zhao frowned and said, "You are still young and don't know how dangerous the world is. What should I do if Pandi, a little girl, runs out and gets into trouble?"

Ding Zhuang also said angrily, "I won't allow it anymore. I must tell the Lord about such important matters. It is up to the Lord to decide how to do it."

Ding Xiang pouted and said, "If anything happens, it would be better than being sold into a brothel or being beaten and disfigured. If I tell the adults, I won't be able to help." Then she said weakly, "Okay, okay, next time Let’s talk to the adults first.”

Ding Zhuangcai said, "The fourth rich man is a benevolent and righteous child, I will help him."

After the conversation, Ding Xiang went to wander around the yard and listen to what was going on outside.

Many people were waiting outside to watch the excitement.

They were talking about Ding Pan's brother running away and Ding Youcai and others going to her grandfather's house to arrest people.

Ding Xiang secretly gave Ding Sifu a thumbs up. He was such a smart boy. He misled them and bought time for Ding Pandi to escape.
