The God of War is killing like crazy

Chapter 216: Being a village chief, isn't it nice?

Mr. Shi was seriously injured recently and stopped bothering Si Ying, but Xue Ren came every day instead.

Si Ying: This damn past life plot, these bastards can’t escape it at all.

Xue Ren came to the tofu shop to buy tofu every day. He also directed and acted out a scene in which Shui's father solved a gangster who came to cause trouble, although the gangster had to bite the bullet and go to Shui's tofu shop to cause trouble because of his fists.

But Shui Fu didn't know that when he saw Xue Ren, a constable, he already had a filter in his mind. After being deceived by Xue Ren's seemingly righteous appearance, he began to like Xue Ren. After a few interactions, they became closer.

Now Xue Ren helped him to drive away the gangsters again. Although his tofu shop hadn't had gangsters causing trouble for a long time, Shui Fu was still very grateful to Xue Ren, so Shui Fu smiled and gave Xue Ren two more pieces of tofu!

Xue Ren: . . . .

What he wants is not tofu, but Shui Yuzhen, the daughter of Shui family!

Seeing Xue Ren's strange expression, Shui Fu thought that he thought he had given too little tofu, so he explained, "Little brother, this tofu is too much to eat and it won't be fresh if it's kept for a long time. Eat these two pieces first, and come back tomorrow and I'll get you fresh ones."

Xue Ren realized that Shui's father had misunderstood him, and quickly explained, "Shui Bo, no, you misunderstood. I just did a small favor, why should I ask for more tofu from you? Besides, there are only my brother and I in my family, and we can't eat so much tofu. Thank you for your kindness, one piece is enough."

He said this on purpose to let Shuifu know that he only had one brother in his family, implying that he had not yet married.

But Shui's father didn't hear it, and he didn't think about it in those terms at all. He thought what Xue Ren said made sense. His daughter had worked hard to pick the beans for making tofu at night, and the tofu made from it couldn't be wasted.

So he took another piece back and said, "Okay, little brother, take one piece back first, and I won't charge you. Come back tomorrow to get a fresh one. Don't be polite to Uncle Shui, or I won't sell you tofu anymore."

Seeing that Xue Ren was still trying to refuse, Shui Fu pretended to be slightly angry, so Xue Ren had no choice but to agree and took the tofu back.

He thought that he had an excuse to come back tomorrow, and then he could see Shui Yuzhen and get the upper hand.

When he got home, Xue Da was lying half dead on the bed. He could smell a foul odor if he got closer. Xue Ren frowned and didn't want to get closer. He threw the package of tofu on Xue Da's bed and left him alone.

Xue Da opened the package hungrily and saw that it was tofu again. He had already forgotten how many days he had eaten tofu. Now, looking at the white and tender tofu, he wanted to vomit, but the hunger of not eating for a day forced him to grab the tofu and eat it in big mouthfuls despite the churning in his stomach. This was the only meal of the day, and if he didn't eat it, he would be hungry.

While eating, he looked angrily at Xue Ren who was drinking and eating snacks beside him.

That look seemed to be poisoned, and the tofu in his hands was smashed into pieces by him, as if he was not grabbing tofu, but Xue Ren.

The next day, Xue Ren did not arrive at the yamen early to close the session, but sneaked out in order to see the beauty early.

He went to Shui's Tofu Shop, and sure enough, there weren't many people inside. The key point was, Si Ying was there too.

He was so happy that he quickly went up to talk to Shui Fu and even brought a bag of peach blossom cakes.

"Uncle Shui, thank you for the tofu you sent me yesterday. My brother has refused to eat anything for a long time, but he loves to eat your tofu. Now he keeps asking for it, so I have to come and bother him every day. When I came here today, I happened to pass by the pastry shop and bought some peach blossom pastry. I heard that the girls in the town love to eat this, so I think the Shui family's sister will like it too."

Besides, the fact that Xue Ren could recognize the man surnamed Qin as his elder brother was also his outstanding feature. What he said made Shui Fu unable to find a reason to refuse, so he had to accept it. So he called Si Ying over, and he had to let his daughter thank him in person.

Xue Ren was so happy to see Si Ying. He could finally talk to her. Then he heard Si Ying ask, "Thank you for your kindness, Constable Xue. You don't need the peach blossom cake. You should save the money for your brother Xue Da's medical treatment. I heard from the matchmaker Wang that Xue Da's leg is broken and he can't get up from the bed."

Si Ying would naturally not have anything to do with someone like Matchmaker Wang. She said that on purpose to embarrass Xue Ren and at the same time put the blame on Matchmaker Wang, who was known for gossiping.

The old woman had done all kinds of bad things in her previous life, and Si Ying did not wrongly accuse her in this life. She did tell everyone about the Xue brothers. After all, the doctor Xue Ren invited that day happened to be her neighbor.

Sure enough, when Xue Ren heard this, his gentle smile froze on his face. He was dissatisfied with Si Ying for saying this to him, and he was even more angry that the matchmaker Wang was slandering his reputation everywhere.

"Sister Shui, how can I listen to gossip? That matchmaker Wang is talking nonsense. My eldest brother broke his leg when he was out selling goods. Now I am taking good care of him at home, but I didn't expect someone to confuse right and wrong like this."

Xue Ren was very angry and threatened to find the matchmaker Wang to argue with her, then he took the opportunity of this incident to leave in embarrassment.

Father Shui was left confused, and asked blankly, "Nannan, what did you just say? Is this Constable Xue the younger brother of Xue Da? The brother who ran away after beating someone up? Why did he beat up his brother too? Is that true? Did matchmaker Wang just talk nonsense and you misheard it?"

"Dad, didn't you ask the neighbors before? He is indeed Xue Da's younger brother, but he changed his name to Xue Ren. I also heard it from the grandmothers next door. As soon as he came back, he broke his own brother's leg, and now he is trying to find a wife for his eldest brother Xue Da!"

"Dad, if you don't believe me, you can ask the matchmaker in our town."

Father Shui naturally believed what his daughter said. He thought of Xue Da's behavior and then saw how attentive Xue Ren was to his daughter. He suddenly had a bad guess. Could it be that Xue Ren was planning to marry his daughter to Xue Da?

When Shui's father thought about it, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. That wouldn't work. His daughter was so beautiful, how could she be a match for Xue Da?

Shui's father was uneasy, especially after he asked several matchmakers who used to buy tofu and found out that it was true. He was even more scared and angry. How could Xue Ren, who looked upright, behave so despicable behind his back? How could he use someone else's daughter as an excuse to make amends just because he had crippled his own brother?

Si Ying glanced at Shui Fu, who had a serious expression on his face, and knew in her heart that Shui Fu must have been thinking a little biased, but Xue Ren did have his eyes on her, so she didn't completely wrong him.

Si Ying was actually happy that Shui Fu thought this way, so that she could be on guard against Xue Ren.

The more Shui Fu thought about it, the angrier he became. He suddenly saw the peach blossom pastry thrown aside. Thinking that this was bought by Xue Ren and was bought for his own daughter, Shui Fu felt a chill. He picked up the peach blossom pastry and threw it outside. It was soon snatched up and eaten by several beggars.
