One touch and one silence

"When I went there yesterday, I went to Bai Dacheng and Bai Gen's houses first, because Bai San was the farthest away."

"As a result, the two of them looked at the younger one and ignored him."

"So I turned around and went back to town, bought some wine and cooked food, and then went to Bai San's house."

"I didn't expect it to be so useful. When he saw that I was staying overnight, he let me in. He was cautious at first, but after drinking some wine, he told me everything."

"Well! What happened next?"

Nanzhi ate the buns slowly and muttered to Liuyue.

"Send some to Sanqi and the others!"

Liu Yue casually took some and walked out. Fatty Chen was very tactful and didn't ask any questions.

"I asked Bai San if he knew Qiu Hancheng well. The boy told me that they grew up together like the same parents. He said Qiu Hancheng was unlucky and that there was a girl in the village named Meihua who loved Qiu Hancheng very much."

"But Qiu Hancheng liked a girl from a cloth-selling family in the town, and they fell in love."

"This Meihua knows that there will be no result between the two of them, so she has been waiting foolishly. However, this Meihua has a man who has admired her for many years, and that man is Bai Xiaoliu from the village head's family."

"Now Bai Xiaoliu has married this plum blossom. I heard that he got married at the beginning of the year. It's really rare."

"That's all I found out, nothing else."

Oh!

It turns out to be a love quadrangle!

Nanzhi finished the bun in her hand and stood up, "Let's go! Let's go meet the head of the village."

This matter is really becoming more and more interesting?

When Nanzhi stood up, a plan suddenly came to his mind, and he called Fatty Chen to come closer.

She whispered a few words to Fatty Chen, who listened and went out.

Liu Yue raised his eyebrows at the side.

"Let's go! It's time for us to say goodbye and meet Qiu Hancheng's mother."

After Nanzhi finished speaking about her plan, she walked out of the room.

Liu Yue followed behind, took out a silver ingot from his arms, put it on the table, and followed his master out of the house.

"Uncle Qiu, I am very grateful to you for taking me in last night. I heard that your wife was not feeling well yesterday, and I just happened to learn a little from Master. If you don't mind, I will show it to your wife."

Old Man Qiu no longer had any idea about this at this point, and there was no point in talking about it anymore.

Their son is about to die, what good will it be even if they are still alive?

"No need, my wife has been like this for many years, and besides..."

Before Old Man Qiu could finish, Nanzhi interrupted him and said, "I just heard from someone around me that your youngest son is in prison. I have some connections and can let you go in and talk to your son."

No visitors are allowed in death row.

"Really?"

Old man Qiu looked delighted.

"Of course, I am quite able to do this. I see that your wife is having a lot of trouble. Why don't you let me give it a try? If it works, I can go with you to see your son."

"this……?"

His wife's legs have been paralyzed for two years. Is she still able to move?

After thinking it over again and again, and thinking about how his wife couldn't sleep all night because she missed her son, he finally decided to give it a try.

Even if it doesn’t get better, it’s okay. If it works, at least I can hear my son talk.

"In this case, I will trouble you, sir."

"It's just that the house is a little dirty and messy. I'm sorry to make you laugh."

As Old Man Qiu spoke, he led Nanzhi into the inner room.

"Old lady, this young master came to see you."

Old man Qiu said something to his old wife in the house. Mother Qiu had already heard their conversation at the door.

There was also some joy in my heart.

The old couple has never seen their son again since his death.

Now, even if she just listens to her son's voice, she will be satisfied and have no regrets in her life.

"Thank you for your help, sir."

As soon as Nanzhi entered the house, she found that it was very tidy, even the bed was clean.

The woman leaned against the head of the bed. Although her eyes were open, they were unfocused. However, her hair was still combed meticulously.

The fingers are also exceptionally clean.

At this moment, Nanzhi suddenly understood why the daughter of a scholar would be willing to marry a farmer.

"Hello, Madam. Sorry for disturbing you!"

Nanzhi looked at the woman on the bed and felt a little pity for her.

"No need to bother you. It is our great honor that you can come to our house."

"Is what the young master said at the door true? Can we really go and see my son?"

Nanzhi heard the urgency in her tone and soothed her.

"Don't worry, Madam. I will arrange for someone to pick you up to see your son tomorrow."

"Please stretch out your hand first, Madam."

Mother Qiu wiped her tears excitedly, "Thank you, young master. You are really a great benefactor to our family."

"If...if...I could see my son again, or even just hear his voice, I would be satisfied in my life."

"Madam, rest assured. Please extend your hand."

Mother Qiu on the bed obediently stretched out her hand, while old man Qiu watched anxiously from the side.

The moment Nanzhi put his hand on it, he suddenly understood.

Destiny is something really hard to predict.

The first half of this woman's life was pretty good. She had a man who truly loved her and a smart, cute and well-educated son.

Things began to change slowly after her eldest son died.

Hey!

The old woman's life ended after her youngest son died.

Fate plays tricks on people!

Nanzhi withdrew his hand.

"How about it?"

Nanzhi shook her head, helpless.

She could see that the old woman was already at the end of her rope, but she was just holding on, waiting for the day when her son would be executed.

At this time, Nanzhi didn't know whether he was right or wrong.

There was a trace of disappointment on Old Man Qiu's face, but he soon recovered.

"fine!"

"Uncle Qiu, let me show you!"

Nanzhi suddenly turned around and said to Old Man Qiu, but Old Man Qiu suddenly refused.

"No, there's nothing to see."

If his son were to die, he would have no purpose, and his wife wouldn't live long either, so it wouldn't matter whether he was in good health or not.

"Uncle Qiu, you don't want your son to see you look haggard and worry about you!"

Nanzhi gave some words of comfort, and it must be said that these words touched the heart of Old Man Qiu.

"Then I'll trouble you, sir."

He didn't want his sons to die and was worried about them.

It was not until Nanzhi reached out and felt Old Man Qiu's pulse that she understood why he was chosen by the daughter of a scholar and married to him.

To be honest, you can't tell at all how handsome this guy was when he was young.

No wonder!

No wonder they had to leave their homeland, it turned out to be because of his wife.

And this matter has been kept secret by the old man.

This was the third good man she had met in ancient times who loved his wife.

Pity!

"Uncle Qiu is just too tired. Have a good rest today. I will ask someone to pick you two up tomorrow."

"Try to take good care of yourself today and don't let your son worry."
