"Stove bless, family peace. ”

After bending down to worship the gods, Yang Chi straightened up and turned around and walked towards the inner room.

The house was small, with only a lobby and a back room with a few crooked beds.

There was a woman reclining on a bed, her face was old, her hair was half white, her clothes were patched, and her calloused hands were tucked into her sleeves—it was early spring, and the weather was still very cold, and the woman was thinly dressed, and even when she fell asleep, she instinctively wanted to resist the cold.

Lifting the door curtain and walking into the inner room, Yang Chi saw the woman's appearance, his heartstrings trembled slightly, and his nose was a little sour.

Although his footsteps were soft, the woman still heard them, she opened her eyes, her eyes were confused, and it took a long while to focus, and when she saw Yang Chi's appearance clearly, she was about to get up immediately.

"Chi'er is back, because my mother was not very cool in the afternoon, she lay on the bed for a while, I don't know when she fell asleep," the woman got up slowly, her face was full of exhaustion, "My son sat down to rest first, someone gave Qingwa two pieces of taro at noon, he ate half of it, and the remaining half of it was for you to keep, I will go and heat it up for you, and the rest of the whole piece will wait for you to cook it yourself." ”

"Taro?" Yang Chi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Well, I learned the craft from Master Wang, so I worship the stove every day, and if I want to come to the cooking skill, I will enter the country, and I will satisfy the third brother's hunger tomorrow." ”

Although taro is common, but Yang Chi's family has not even had a piece of land since his father was convicted, let alone taro, there is no working class in these years, and even the folk handicraft industry is in the ascendant, you have no land at home, that is, there is no root, you can't even straighten your waist when you say it, and your aunt can't ask for it.

Seeing that his mother was in a hurry to get up, Yang Chi stepped forward quickly and helped him first. Then he handed over the money bag, and said: "Mother, don't worry, the child is not hungry, today the owner saw my hard work, and the salary was settled, you can make up for the family." ”

"Have you paid your wages?" the woman was overjoyed when she heard this, and took the money bag, "The current owner is much stronger than the original. He said. She took out a few copper plates and put them next to her pillow, but handed the rest back, "Bury the rest, and in a few days, you can also buy some land, so that our family can open up the wasteland, cough cough ......"

As she spoke, the woman suddenly coughed. His chest rose and fell rapidly, and he looked out of breath.

Yang Chi was suddenly startled, helped his mother stroke his chest and back, and it took a while to calm down. Then the woman ignored Yang Chi's dissuasion, and got up to give him a hot meal.

Looking at his mother's staggering back, Yang Chi clenched his fists.

"Tomorrow. You have to find a job, or you'll ......."

Boom!

Just when Yang Chi was secretly making up his mind, a dull crashing sound suddenly sounded in the courtyard. Then came the woman's exclamation.

"What's going on?" Yang Chi was startled and hurriedly rushed out, but what caught his eye was the picture of a woman helping a teenager to get up.

"Third brother?"

At a close look, Yang Chi recognized the identity of the young man, it was his brother Yang Qing, just looking at the other party's tattered clothes and the scars on his face, it made him feel ominous.

"Brother......

Yang Qing glanced up, struggled to get up, and said to the woman beside him: "Mother, don't worry, I climbed a tree at the head of the village with Guawa, fell down!"

"Why are you so careless, how long will it take to stay up to heal?" The woman looked distressed, tears rolled in her eyes, their family was too poor, this Jiannan City's medical hall and doctor, they couldn't afford to hire it, at most they could find some barefoot doctors and buy some plasters, but where to find them now?

"Okay, mother, don't you think I'm a good haode?" Yang Qing endured the pain, jumped on the spot twice, although he pulled the wound, but because he was afraid that his mother would worry, he held back.

The woman was anxious, but there was no way, so she had to tell Yang Chi to take care of it, and she walked to the corner of the courtyard and squatted on the ground.

On the other side, Yang Chi originally planned to go over to make a fire and let his mother rest, but looking at his younger brother's appearance, he changed his attention, he had a gloomy face, pulled Yang Qing, walked into the house, and then closed the door and sat down on the chair next to the table.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?"

Yang Qingzheng grinned because of the wound on his body, and when he heard this, he immediately settled down and muttered.

The eldest brother of the people is like a father, and the father of the Yang brothers lived in the garrison of this city, and died of illness due to weakness, and Yang Chi became the head of the Yang family.

You must know that there is a set of strict systems for the distribution and exile of this Da Rui, first of all, the famous saying "accomplices are scattered from far and near", specifically, that is, the accomplices who commit crimes cannot be assigned to the same place, cannot be matched with one state, are not allowed to go on the road at the same time, more than five people are not allowed to be together, and more than ten people are not allowed to be in the same house.

Yang Qing's father, who was originally a small official, was also a bit powerful, but he was implicated by the misfortune of his boss and was assigned to the army, and none of the colleagues who were convicted at the same time were on the same road, only family members accompanied him, and after Yang's father died, the Yang family naturally had no one to help them, and it was difficult.

Moreover, this family could not return to their hometown, because in order to manage the allocators, Da Rui had drawn up a detailed file and name book, not only the name had to be recorded, but also the age, crime, and previous offenses had to be recorded one by one, even if Yang's father died, his son could not leave.

In fact, Da Rui's criminal law has always advocated filial piety, and the death of the elderly and the absence of an adult male in the family will be degraded, so the Yang family can settle in the capital of Jiannan Province, but because of the death of Yang's father, the entire Yang family is in trouble.

It stands to reason that the food and clothing of the assigned person must be provided by the government, and after the death of Yang's father, there should have been a bereavement pension, but it was intercepted, so that the orphans and widows will be short of food and clothing from then on.

Later, the new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, but the Yang family was troubled by the villain because of the third son Yang Qing, and he failed to return to his hometown, and even the second child was broken. Of course, even if they go back, their family's fields have already been wiped out by the clan, but the situation can change for some time.

The predicament at home made the two children of the Yang family bear the burden of the family, but compared to Yang Chi, who acted steadily, Yang Qing acted out of the box and was eclectic, which caused several incidents, and it took a lot of effort to calm down, and the sequelae have been affected until now.

Right now, Yang Chi saw Yang Qing's appearance and instinctively felt that something was about to happen.

"Brother......

Yang Qing cautiously looked around, then took two steps forward, took out a bag from his arms, and the hands holding the bag trembled slightly.

He came to the table, turned the bag upside down, and two small silver cakes fell.

Knock!

With two sounds, the silver cake spun around on the table, and then lay quietly on the table.

Quiescence!

The whole room fell silent, and it didn't take long for the sound of heavy breathing to become more and more obvious, but it was Yang Chi who was wheezing violently.

After a while, he barely calmed down the breath in his chest and asked in a deep voice, "Where did this come from?"

Yang Qing lowered his head and said, "Brother, don't ask, with these two pieces of silver cakes, our family can afford to buy land! If you follow your method, when will you be able to save enough money?"

Hula!

Here, as soon as Yang Qing's words fell, there was a sudden chaotic sound outside the door, and listening to the sound, it seemed to be the Yang family's fence when it was pushed down and broken.

Then, Yang's mother's screams came, and the Yang brothers all changed color, rushing to the outside, and when they pushed the door open, they saw several tall figures!

And Mother Yang was curled up and lying on the ground at this time.

"Mother!" Yang Chi and Yang Qing ran over in surprise, one helped up their mother, and the other glared angrily at the visitor.

"Which one is Yang Qing?"

A voice came, and a young man in a straight-robed robe stepped out.

As soon as his voice fell, a thin old man nodded and followed, with a smile on his face, identifying Yang Qing.

"Uncle Li, why are you ......!" Yang Chi saw the old man, and immediately became angry!

This old man, he is no stranger, he lives in the village, and he is considered the elder of this village.

When Li Bo heard this, the humility on his face vanished: "Are you embarrassed to talk about the old man? Don't ask your brother, who has been stealing chickens and dogs all day long, and today he went to the old man's field and took a few pieces of taro." ”

"Are you stealing again?" Yang Chi heard this, and then looked at his younger brother, showing an angry expression.

"I ......" Yang Qing's eyes dodged, "I wanted to go to you today, but I saw your dispute with the owner......"

"You know!" Yang Chi was shocked in his heart, knowing that he was dismissed, Yang Qing saw it, "That can't be ......"

Bang Bang Bang!

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a burst of clapping, the young man clapped his hands and said with a smile: "What a bitter scene, what a brother and a friend and brother, but my son doesn't care about your affairs at all." ”

"This is Liu Zhuguan of the Jiannan garrison, and he is here to recover the money. Uncle Li said cautiously beside him, looking flattering.

"Being a military officer at such a young age must have a good background. Yang Chi was startled at first, and then remembered the two silver cakes in the house, and secretly shouted that it was not good, but before he could tell it, two strong men had already come up and took Yang Qing away!

Then, someone pushed the door into the house, and in a churning sound, took out two pieces of silver cake.

"These two pieces of silver cake are nothing at all," Liu Zhiguan shook his head, "But not everyone can take the things of this son, those two people did things for me, but you stole the money, and you can't easily expose it, you must explain it." ”

When the words fell, he waved his hand, and two people walked out behind him, wanting to get Mother Yang, this woman was already frightened, and she was about to struggle when she saw this, but she was slapped in the face by a big man, and she spit out two teeth and blood flowed from her mouth!

"Stop!"

The Yang family brothers suddenly split their eyes, and each of them had an extremely strong thought, wanting to tear the few people in front of them apart!

Shake!

In the room, the statue of the stove shook slightly. (To be continued......)
