By the next day, there was talk of it in the streets, but nothing happened. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info The young people won't take the words of the elderly. What should they do, what they should do.

In the evening, the fifth master came panting. shouted: "Second sister-in-law, it's terrible." Many snakes, the big snake led the small snake to the south of the Black Dragon Pond. ”

Grandma didn't say anything, picked up the rosary and began to chant the scriptures.

However, nothing happened on this day. Even the chickens and dogs were quiet.

Early in the morning of the third day, Cheng Linghui went to fetch water. I saw the water from the well bubbling outward, as if it were boiling. She stared at the well. Suddenly, the water of the well rose upwards and overflowed the mouth of the well. was so shocked that Cheng Linghui jumped back. But before she could stand firm, the well water shrank back violently. Cheng Linghui took a look and suddenly saw the silt at the bottom of the well.

Doubts are being made. The chickens and dogs, which had been quiet, suddenly became noisy again. An ominous premonition rose to his heart. Cheng Linghui shouted: "It's not good. He turned around and ran home. As he ran, he shouted, "Oh no, run." Run, everybody. ”

The neighbors heard her shout and came out one after another, wanting to see what was going on. Cheng Linghui only felt that time was pressing, and she had to run quickly. I don't know why I want to run or where I should run.

She almost ran into the house, grabbed her grandmother and carried her back out the door. The family came out one after another. Hearing Cheng Linghui shouting to run, he ran out.

Cheng Linghui carried her grandmother out and put her in an open place on the street. Turned around and was about to carry grandpa. Out of nowhere, there was a muffled sound, and the mountains shook in an instant. Akira's people can't stand at all. I watched the houses on both sides of the street rise and collapse in an instant. The whole village suddenly shouted and the horses neighed, and the chickens flew and the dogs jumped.

Cheng Linghui finally gained a foothold, and her home had become a ruin.

She blinked, a little incredulous at what she saw. Then another wave of tremors came. Cheng Linghui fell and fell, and it took a long time to react. yelled, "Grandpa." "I'm going to rush into the ruins.

Shi Niang suddenly hugged her by the back, dragged her and said, "I can't go, it's too dangerous." Cheng Linghui was dragged to the ground, looking at the gray sky and crying.

Her father is not at home, and her grandfather is the only spiritual pillar for her to support the family. Now this pillar has collapsed, and she has collapsed all at once.

Cheng Linghui didn't know how long she had been crying. I only remember that the surviving people in the village were standing in front of the ruins of their homes in a daze. I don't know who is crying mournfully. It's not loud.

Shaxi County was severely affected by this ground movement. The number of casualties is difficult to count. Because of Cheng Linghui's shouting, the number of casualties in Chengjia Village was much less. Still, the village was shrouded in mourning.

Buried my grandfather and looked at the home that had become a ruin. Cheng Linghui didn't even have time to grieve.

It's getting colder and colder, and if these young and old don't have a nest, they have to freeze to death.

Shilipu also suffered, and Walnut Ping was no exception. Fortunately, the fourth sister's family and aunt are all fine. But no one can help anyone to rebuild their homes. Fortunately, there is a second sister. helped Cheng Linghui share a lot of work.

The sisters worked day and night digging and beating billets. Finally, an adobe house was built in time for the heavy snowfall. The family was saved from freezing to death. Fortunately, food is available, so there is no need to worry about going hungry.

In this way, we survived the harsh winter and ushered in a warm spring. This year, Cheng Linghui was nineteen years old. It belongs to an old girl in the village. But who in the family still has the heart to think about this?

In the spring, we must be busy with spring sowing and building houses.

Seeing the good growth of winter wheat, the crops breathed a sigh of relief and smiled a little. Who knew that a locust plague would come unexpectedly. The locusts that covered the sky and the sun instantly gnawed the freshly soaked wheat. The common people really want to cry without tears.

The spring crops have just emerged and have been eaten up. It's a problem to think about planting seeds. Everyone invariably remembered the Chang family back then. The Chang family has been a benevolent family for generations, and for the poor people in all four miles and eight townships, it is how much help can be helped. Borrowing a seed is a matter of words. But now, where is the Chang family?

By this time, no one in the village could care about anyone. Each thinks of his own way.

Fortunately, Cheng Linghui still has the silver to buy tiger skins. In addition to the flowers used in the past few years, there are still some left. I spent several times more expensive than in previous years, bought seeds and planted them. By this time, she had nothing left in her hands. Not to mention building a house, even if anyone in the family has a headache and brain fever, they don't have the money to take medicine.

So, she decided to take the risk again and sell smuggled salt.

The fifth master is already old, and she doesn't plan to tell him. After settling into the house, she pushed the wheelbarrow on the road alone. The head of the salt in a certain West Salt Pond is still there, and it is easy to talk to each other if they know each other. Cheng Linghui loaded the salt and rushed back day and night. When I arrived in Shaxi County, I learned that the old man of the bun shop was stoned to death in this ground movement. Cheng Linghui thought about it, pushed the cart and went to Cangzhou.

After so many years, the matter of waiting for rebellion has faded. Cangzhou has long been lifted. Cheng Linghui hid the salt and walked around Cangzhou City. Fancy a humble grocery store.

I have to say that after all these years, she still has some vision. After a handover, the shopkeeper of the grocery store was really not an innocent businessman. It's just that when he saw that Cheng Linghui was young, he inevitably had the idea of bullying. Cheng Linghui remained silent, and crushed the tea bowl for drinking water with one hand. Tea flowed all over the floor. The shopkeeper made a reluctant look and accepted Cheng Linghui's salt. But it also lowered a lot of prices.

There is a way that a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and Cheng Linghui is also helpless about this. I had the heart to inquire about the treasurer. The shopkeeper changed color and said, "Young people should not be curious about everything. It is the same as what the fifth master has always taught her. Cheng Linghui knew that she couldn't ask anything, so she didn't ask. The two agreed that Cheng Linghui would send the goods here if they had them in the future.

When Cheng Linghui left, she saw someone pushing a cart into the backyard of the grocery store like herself. The car is covered with tarpaulin, and it is estimated that it is also an unsightly business. Thinking of what the fifth master said, don't worry about idle things. She could only suppress the curiosity in her heart.

She went to the Dingbian Marquis Mansion. It's just that the gate of the Hou Mansion is closed and heavily guarded. She turned around and found that she couldn't get in at all. That's it. Since then, he has started to run a single gang and sell smuggled salt for a living. I also occasionally drive ox carts to transport some special products and department stores from the two places. At this point, she occasionally thought of her father. I don't know if my father ran the single gang back then, and he also had the same unspeakable hardships as himself? I don't know where my father is now, is he okay?

In order to make money, she even went to the outside of the plug alone to sell leather goods. Run to the northeast to pour ginseng. It's just that there are too many shady scenes in those visitors. That time, she almost lost her life and didn't make any money. I didn't dare to go again. Just concentrate on selling goods. The leather goods were sold from the outside to the capital, and then from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River. Then come back from Jiangnan to sell silk and tea.

Occasionally, he also sells a few illegal salts, but not only to the salt pond of a certain Xiyun City, but also to the East China Sea to sell sea salt.

In the past two years, she has really earned some money. A courtyard covered with blue bricks and blue tiles. Sanxiang Wuli is also a good family. After marrying the fifth sister in a beautiful way, someone soon came to propose marriage to the second sister.

Cheng Linghui inquired. The family is still good. The man came back as a soldier. The daughter-in-law left a boy dead. The boy looked like he was six or seven years old, but he was a little naughty. A child, Cheng Linghui didn't take it to heart. Seeing that the second sister was willing, she agreed. It only takes a few months from the proposal to the marriage. Cheng Linghui felt that it was too hasty, and the dowry prepared was too small. I gave the second sister fifty taels of money.

Fifty taels is a lot of money in the countryside. The countrymen are busy and can't save more than two taels of silver in a year.

But the second sister is so unlucky. The family of the former second brother-in-law is not a thing, and they treat her as a cow and a horse. This second brother-in-law's family treats her well, but she can't stand a stepson who remembers. Messing with her all day long, the family is called a chicken flying dog jumping.

No way, people's grandfathers and grandmothers feel sorry for their eldest grandson. Treat that skin child as more important than life. His father felt that he had left their mother and son for many years, and he felt indebted. Reluctant to teach a lesson. The six- or seven-year-old child knew something, and at the instigation of his uncle's family, he almost lifted the roof. I ask for money every day, and if I don't give it, I will make trouble.

The second sister has been married for less than a month, and the fifty taels of silver at the bottom of the box have been lost no less than five times. Who can't see that someone is worried about her money.

Cheng Linghui was furious. He took a knife and went to the house of the child's grandmother, and with one knife he cut down the thick jujube tree in front of their house. Scared, none of the family dared to show their heads.

Cheng Linghui went to the second sister's house again, and when she mentioned the child, she was beaten up. It's not easy to let the grandfather and grandmother of that family cry and grab the ground. The second brother-in-law came over to pull it, and was abducted to the wall by Cheng Linghui: "Uncle beats nephew, don't care." ”

The leather child saw that he had lost his support, and he was beaten so badly that it hurt. Immediately softened. cried and shouted to call the second sister 'mother', begging for mercy one by one. The second sister is a soft-hearted person, pulling Cheng Linghui to cry tears as if she didn't want money. said: "Sanhui, you beat me, don't beat my child." It's because I didn't teach it well, it's all to blame. I don't know how to be a mother. ”

Cheng Linghui looked at this situation and accepted it when she saw it. glared at the child: "If you dare to go up to the house to uncover the tiles, see how I clean you up?" ”

The leather child is also clever, and he kowtows when he crawls on the ground: "Uncle, I don't dare anymore." Don't dare anymore. ”

Anyway, the kid never made any trouble again. No, the process of wisdom also left a deep shadow on him. Until he married his daughter-in-law, he was still scared when he heard that Sanhui was coming.

In this year, a major event occurred in the imperial court. The emperor asked the empress dowager to dismiss Qian, and sent him to Jinling Mansion as the prince. The newly enthroned emperor is the original emperor's younger brother. I heard that these two are still brothers. The biological mother is the imperial concubine, but she died a long time ago. The current queen mother is their father's eldest wife, the original mother of the main palace.

Who knows how? There are a lot of big wives and small wives in big families, and the entanglement of sons-in-law and concubines is not clear, let alone the royal family?

However, the people were very happy to hear the news.
