Chapter 3 There is no such thing as the poorest, only the poorer
"Our virtuous brother is so clever...... "If you don't shout, the second sister will definitely not know that you are coming, Dai Shuanglin couldn't help but praise sincerely, but in the end, he was a thief, he stood up to block the sight of the virtuous brother, and said tentatively while walking: "What did our mother say?" ”。
Dai Shuangxian is ten years old this year, and he knows no less about family affairs than Dai Shuanglin, and when he heard this, he learned Sun's tone and said, "Brother Xian, hurry up and take your second sister with an umbrella...... Hey, I knew I wouldn't let your second sister go out, and I forgot that the little cub of the Gu family came back......"
“……”
Dai Shuanglin's expression froze, and she subconsciously looked back at the so-called little cub of the Gu family, the figure that was sunny after the rain was even brighter in the haze and rain, just like the shadow he left on her heart, the color of the warm sun never dimmed.
Waving his hand to signal Gu Xiaomin to leave quickly, for fear that Dai Shuangxian would find out and go back to complain, Dai Shuanglin gave Brother Xian a moment of thought, and chuckled: "After you go back, the second sister will praise you with our mother, I really didn't expect you to learn from our mother, and learn so similarly." ”
"Good second sister, don't do this...... If our mother knows, she won't be able to spare me, aren't you hurting me? Dai Shuangxian was easily shocked by his second sister's words, and begged with a bitter face, no longer having the mind to look around.
"Okay, for the sake of your hard work to pick up the second sister, the second sister won't talk about it." The two of them turned into the alley after talking, Dai Shuanglin sighed and let go of her heart, as long as she was not caught red-handed, her mother would have no way to deal with her, and she could only use Laipi's trick to deal with her shrewd mother.
The dialogue between the two sisters and brothers, although Gu Xiaomin didn't listen to it all, he could probably guess it all, he was naughty when Dai Shuanglin was leaving, and he was troubled by Sun's decision, originally he and Shuanglin were favored by everyone's marriage, but now he and Shuanglin are still insisting, who is to blame?
Gu Xiaomin, who was expressionless, did not move, letting the cold rain wash over his body, Li Tingchang, Dai Er......
"Hey, isn't that Second Brother Gu?" Dai Shuangxian's eyes lit up, and he pointed ahead and exclaimed.
Silly brother, it's too late to scare! Second Brother Gu is behind.
Dai Shuanglin was naturally not fooled, raised her hand and gave Dai Shuangxian another look, and snorted: "The stinky boy wants to deceive your second sister, in a few years, hurry up and go home, you are still barefoot!" ”
The men in Shili and Eight Villages, including the town of Puyang, are reluctant to go out with shoes when it rains, and the reason is that they are too poor.
In fact, it's not just that they are poor in Puyang Town, but the entire Qi country is so poor that they can't wait to go barefoot.
At that time, the world was divided into three parts, and the Shu and Wuchi kingdoms in the south were equally divided, and then the Qi kingdom occupied most of the north.
The strength of the three countries is equal, today you sneak attack me, tomorrow I sneak attack you, big and small wars have never stopped, so the three countries are poor one by one.
As the saying goes, there is no poorest, only poorer, they are poor, and the two neighboring countries are even poorer, and I heard the people who collect taxes in the countryside of the county government say that the neighboring countries are already so poor that they eat grass roots, and there are countless things about people eating people.
When Dai Shuanglin first heard about this, she was so scared that she didn't dare to sleep for a few nights, and everyone lost half a circle with her, it's really terrible for people to eat people!
After Gu Xiaomin found out, he came to talk to Dai Shuanglin secretly, those gossips must have been deliberately spread by the imperial court officials, and he was afraid that there would be Qi people smuggling south.
After Gu Xiaomin said it, Dai Shuanglin immediately realized that she was also stupid, how could she believe the nonsense of those people? In the era of cold weapons, in wartime, "people" are the priority, and fleeing a country is a loss for the country.
Sure enough, later some people who escaped from Guangling and Fancheng said that there are many mountains and rivers in the south, and there are countless wild things, and if you want to eat meat, you can go up the mountain to catch it, and if you want to eat, you will have white flowers and flowers.
Dai Shuanglin will be frightened by the words "people eat people", but she will not be deceived by a bowl of fragrant rice, when she has never eaten rice, in her previous life, she was a person who ate half a bowl and threw half a bowl.
Before Dai Shuanglin sighed for long, the person who spread the "fragrant Baili rice" was arrested, so far, what else does Dai Shuanglin not understand? It's just a trick to fool the people.
It was also from this matter that Dai Shuanglin had a different view of Gu Xiaomin, and the Gu Xiaowolf in her heart was officially upgraded to Gu Lang.
It's a pity that such an excellent potential stock is on her lips, but because of Dai Er's old rascal, she can only watch it and can't eat it.
Thinking of this, Dai Shuanglin was like a mourning exam.
Phew, what do you think?
God bless her father and her mother with a long life!
Although they were holding umbrellas, when the sisters and brothers came home, there were still not many places on their bodies that were dry, especially Dai Shuanglin, who remembered Gu Xiaomin in his heart, and was a little absent-minded when he walked.
The rain is still falling, the vegetables in the Dai family's courtyard are washed black and shiny, and the Sun family and the eldest daughter Dai Shuanghong in the house are idle, picking bean seeds by the light at the door.
After harvesting the wheat, the bean seeds will be planted, and the family's land is only Dai Xiangen's original three-point wasteland under the slope, which is the last life-saving straw for the Dai family, so the bean seeds naturally have to choose the best, and one more is one.
Dai Shuanglin didn't care about her younger brother, put the oil-paper umbrella in the aisle, and looked at the Sun family and the eldest sister Dai Shuanghong in the main house and shouted with a smile: "Mother, sister, don't do this, I will be a ...... when Brother Xian and I come to pick it up."
Because Sun and the eldest sister have to do embroidery to support their family, they can't do too much rough work with that hand, and if they do it roughly, they will scrape the fabric silk thread, so from two years ago, most of the rough work at home was done by Dai Shuanglin and Dai Shuangxian.
Sun, who was busy picking bean seeds, didn't pay attention to Dai Shuanglin, but her eldest sister Dai Shuanghong raised her head in response, glanced at Dai Shuanglin, and said softly: "It'll be fine for a while, hurry back to the house......
"Oh" Dai Shuanglin sighed in her heart, and secretly said, what is she a thief, she is inevitably worried about the shrewd Sun family, so she responded to the eldest sister, slipped into the middle room along the eaves, and was about to pretend to be okay and ran back to the west, when her father Dai Xiangen's voice sounded in the east, "Sister Lin...... Didn't get caught in the rain, did you? ”。
His father, Dai Xiangen, is kind-hearted.
In everyone, he is the eldest brother, and he should be good to his brothers and sisters, and in the small family, he is a husband and a father, and he has nothing to say about the Sun family and several children.
Dai Shuanglin likes such a father and is also troubled by having such a father, but she does not deny that she is full of respect for her father, because Dai Xiangen cannot be stimulated during his illness, so Dai Shuanglin hurriedly cleared his throat and cheered up, and replied through the door curtain: "It's not drenched, it's just that the shoes are in the water." Dad, don't talk about it, I need to hurry up and change my shoes. ”
"Well, let's go...... cough ......" Dai Xiangen seemed to be relieved, and after coughing, there was no movement.
didn't disturb her father, Dai Shuanglin's pink tongue was slightly exposed, and she made a grimace at the nervous Dai Shuanghong, and opened the curtain of the west room and entered her and her eldest sister's room.
Dai Shuanglin, who was glad that her father was not worried, did not notice that after listening to her words, Sun's hand picking bean seeds paused, and the corner of his eye saw Dai Shuanglin who was dripping, and his face softened a lot.
Dai Shuanglin, who successfully arrived at the room, wanted to close the door as soon as she entered the door, but her hand touched the door, but she didn't dare to close it.
Closed in broad daylight? Isn't this Ming Huanghuang telling her mother that she has a ghost in her heart?
