"You don't know how fierce that lady of the official was. She took someone to beat Xiao Fengjiao to a bruised face. Later, the people couldn't stand it anymore and pulled those people away. I always thought that she was such a good-looking person and would never do such a thing. In the next few days, the good-good opera troupe also stopped. We had no hope for a while, but some bad rumors spread in the village."
Among the rumors, even the best person will be seriously injured.
"What are they spreading?" The car was still driving on the uneven mountain road.
"They said that Xiao Fengjiao was restless at a young age and seduced many men. The official in the town was just one, and she was not satisfied even if she was like this. I heard that there were several men in the township office who had something to do with her. At that time, my mother was very concerned about my father, so she was afraid that he would go to the top show team to visit Xiao Fengjiao if he had nothing to do."
"Then, is Xiao Fengjiao such a person?"
The old man sighed, "It's not long after that, Xiao Fengjiao is indeed pregnant."
Wu Nian was shocked, "Is there anything she and that official really wrong?"
"I don't know, I only know that later the official's wife found out and brought a group of people. I was still young at that time and wanted to visit her secretly. I happened to meet her. She was also young at that time, and she held the official and begged for mercy. Don't hit anyone."
"How did Xiao Fengjiao do later?"
"How could that Mrs. Guan listen to me as a child? At that time, an adult was pressed to the ground. She watched the group kick Xiao Fengjiao in the stomach and aborted a person. I can still remember that Xiao Fengjiao covered her stomach and begged for mercy, saying that her child was not the official, but her fiancé. After they returned from the performance, they would marry her fiancé, and she had nothing to do with the official. But Mrs. Guan didn't believe it, so she still aborted abortion." At this point, the old man still had tears in his eyes, and he was extremely regretful.
"If I had thought about it more and asked the adults for help, I might have saved her."
Fifth Nian frowned, "Is she dead?"
"No, the child is gone, and she is a little confused. Because I was still confined to this matter by my mother. As for what happened later, I don't know. I just heard that Xiao Fengjiao couldn't bear the blow and then committed suicide in that office building."
suicide?
The fifth thought I never thought it would turn out like this in the end, and I felt a little more depressed in my heart.
"But why did I hear that the entire troupe is dead?"
The old man shook his head, "I was pressed to the ground and was injured because of struggle. When my mother came to pick me up, she was injured for a long time and was confined. I also heard from the children in the neighbor's house what happened during this period."
He paused and continued, "They said that Xiao Fengjiao did not commit suicide, but was killed by the official wife. Xiao Fengjiao died unjustly, and the people in the opera troupe were too indifferent, which angered Xiao Fengjiao, so they killed all the people in the opera troupe. I heard that one person escaped at that time, the son of the headmaster. Those people died so miserably. In the end, we ordinary people dragged people to a small valley not far from the office building and buried them all."
The fifth thought immediately when I thought of the grave where Feng Yuanman was lying on, at least twenty of them were large and small.
"I don't know why the rumors of haunted came out later. I always felt that even if Xiao Fengjiao really turned into a ghost, she was a kind ghost."
"Uncle, what happened to you here is that so many people died, and they were buried quietly? Didn't anyone come down to investigate?" Although the new China Kingdom had just been established and some legal systems were not perfect enough, so many people died and no one came down to investigate.
The old man shook his head, "I don't know very well. This matter is indeed gone. Later, someone heard that someone was singing a song in the open space in the village, and the most sang was the drunken concubine. The rumors of haunted were spread like this. There were people living nearby, but later the rumors of haunted became more and more fierce. Some neighbors moved away, and the place became desolate over time."
Pointing to the scattered adobe house in front, "Girl, the first household in front is my house. Thank you for sending me back. If you don't dislike it, come in and have a glass of water!"
Wu Nian wanted to know more stories, so he naturally didn't dislike him. He nodded quickly, "I'm just a little thirsty if I don't dislike him."
Because the road ahead was a bit difficult to walk, two people walked.
"How many people are there in your village?"
"These households you see in your eyes are people from all over our village."
"Where are young people?"
"They all ran out to work, like us old bones, and they couldn't get out, and they didn't look like they were going out, so they stayed here."
"Uncle, who are there in your family?"
"I have an old wife. My son and daughter-in-law left the island with my grandson, and we were the two old couples left." The old man brought Di Nian back to his home, perhaps because she drove here and looked pretty. He attracted a lot of attention along the way. Some people also asked him if he was their granddaughter-in-law?
The old man smiled very honestly, "Is the girl from the city or a book writer? Where can I have that blessing in our family?"
He led Di Wu Nian into the door and introduced her identity. When he learned that Di Wu Nian sent her old man back, he couldn't stop thanking me, "Old man, don't thank me. Fortunately, although the mountain road is not easy to walk, the road is spacious and can accommodate a car, otherwise I would not be able to send the old man back."
The old man looked at Di Wu Nian, "Girl, if you really want to write the story of Xiao Fengjiao, can you let her finally get out of here and get married to her fiancé?"
