The four brothers of the Li family were excited for a while before they calmed down. Situ Yan waited until they calmed down before continuing to speak, "Big brother, I want to ask, didn't my godfather and godmother leave any clothes or quilts when they were alive?" Why is there nothing in this house? ”
Li Dalang sighed, feeling a little sad in his heart, "When my father and mother left, they left some things, but they were all taken away by the milk, and only a quilt was given, saying that the male baby is strong and will not freeze to death if he covers a little." ”
Situ Yanleng, what kind of logic is this, this person wants to be shameless, he is really invincible in the world. Dare to make up any nonsense.
"Tomorrow morning, we're leaving, what's the big brother in this house reluctant to do?"
"Nope. The thoughts left by my father and mother were all taken away by my grandmother, and there was nothing in this room except this quilt. ”
I don't know what kind of life these four people had before, but the room was empty like this, "Don't the brothers even have a change of clothes?" ”
"At the end of the year, just this one on my body, I don't dare to go out in the winter, sometimes the eldest brother wants to go out, I take off the clothes on my body to the eldest brother, so that the eldest brother will not be frostbitten." Li Erlang opened his mouth first, and it was sad to think about such days. As soon as these words came out, all four brothers began to cry.
"Cry! I feel better when I cry out. Situ Yan said secretly in her heart, she couldn't have imagined that the life of the four brothers of the Li family was not even ordinary poverty, but even more difficult than that poverty.
The four of them cried for a while, but Shiro took it first this time, "I just became a brother, so I cried my nose in front of Xiao Wu, I was ugly, I'm afraid this cry will scare Xiao Wu." ”
Situ Yan was a little puzzled, these four brothers are not ugly at all, they are too thin, their faces are not good-looking, if they can eat fatter, they are beautiful men, where does this ugly word come from, "Fourth brother, who said you are ugly?" ”
"What the milk said, I said that I am like a mother, the awl face is blessed, the big eyes of the horse leak the divine light, and the thin mouth is expensive for oil and food."
After Situ Yan heard this, she laughed out loud. This Cao clan can really talk nonsense.
"Little Wu, what are you laughing at?" Li Dalang also felt that Xiao Wu's smile was a little strange, didn't he also think that what the milk said made sense?
"Nonsense" Situ Yanxiao's stomach hurt, and after a while, he directly gave four words.
"Do you think Xiao Wu is good-looking?" Situ Yan thought about her disguised appearance, and she felt like she was going to vomit.
"Good-looking, little five hearts are kind, when you grow up in the future, you must be good-looking." Li Dalang actually thinks that the little sister is not good-looking, but he thinks that the little sister is kind-hearted, and his mother said that a kind-hearted person is beautiful, so he thinks that the little sister will look good when she grows up.
"Nonsense, Xiao Wu is not good-looking at all, but the eldest brother doesn't want to hurt Xiao Wu's heart. It can be seen that the eldest brother is really kind-hearted. But you have to believe that Xiao Wu, my brothers are really good-looking, when I was in the city, I heard people say this, 'Double eyelids are big, they will call and glow, melon seeds face and thin lips, good fortune and wealth'. ”
"Little Wu, do the people in the city really say that?" Li Erlang couldn't believe it, he always felt that what the milk said was right, and the four of them were ugly.
"Of course it's true. Don't you believe in Little Five? Situ Yan pretended to be angry.
"Believe, of course believe." Several people nodded happily, they were happy not because someone said that they were so handsome, but because it was Xiaomei who said this, and Xiaomei liked them and didn't dislike them for being ugly, so they were happy.
"But the grandmother also said that the eldest brother has small hands, so he is the master who can't do anything, and he can't eat enough." Li Erlang felt that what his grandmother said was not all right, and wanted to hear what the little sister thought of the eldest brother.
"Don't listen to these words in the future, don't believe it, this small hand grabs the treasure, and the big hand grabs the grass! The eldest brother's hands are warm and thick, and he is blessed. Situ Yan couldn't wait to rush to the main room and scatter the Cao family, how could there be such a person who was a human milk, and said that the child was ugly, what good would it do to her, could it be that she was ugly alone, so she wanted the whole family to accompany her ugly, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she felt that the Cao family was cheaper today, and she should be made to suffer more.
"Big brother, did you hear that? Little Five also likes Big Brother? ”
"Well, Xiao Wu is the most kind-hearted." Li Dalang felt that the little sister was comforting them, so he would say this, but he was happy to hear it.
Situ Yan knew that it was not easy to make them believe her words for a while, but when they were well-informed in the future, they would naturally know that it was good to be good and would be able to distinguish between beauty and ugliness.
Since there is nothing in this house that she can help collect, she still has one more thing she wants to ask, "Big brother, is the third brother's stuttering problem congenital or acquired?" ”
"Xiao Wu, you mean Xiao San's stumbling, this is when Xiao San was six years old, because his father died, Xiao San kept crying, his milk was angry, and he smoked the soles of his shoes, and since then Xiao San has had the problem of stumbling." As soon as Li Dalang remembered what happened at that time, he got angry, his fists were tight, originally the junior was the same as the fourth, and he spoke sharply, but since then, the junior is afraid of being laughed at, so he rarely speaks, and only when the four brothers are alone, they will say a few words.
"Then don't worry about the third brother, this little five will be governed, and it is guaranteed that within a year, the third brother will speak like the fourth brother."
"Really, really, really, really,,,,?" Li Saburo excitedly wants to tell the truth? But as soon as the words came out, they changed.
"Third brother, little sister teaches you, you first think about what you are going to say, think about it in your head, and then slowly say it word by word, just like the third brother was going to say 'really?' Then you should think about it in your mind first, and then slowly say the word 'true' first, and then talk about the word 'of' when you think about the next word, and then think about it and then talk about the word '?'. Speak more every day, practice more according to this method, and after three months, the third brother will speak faster than now, and after half a year, he will be able to continue to speak. If you don't believe it, try it now? ”
Li Sanlang tried it according to Situ Yan's method, although his speech slowed down, he didn't stumble again, and the other brothers cried happily. In the end, even Saburo cried.
The people in this room were crying, and Cao's voice came from outside, "Crying, crying, like a crying spirit, it's too late to regret it." Tomorrow morning, let me go. Finally, I heard Cao's snort.
Situ Yan doesn't care, only four Li Dalang, covering his mouth with his hands at this time, silently shedding tears, Situ Yan also understands, no matter how to say that this is the Li family, Li Dalang's four surnames are Li, it is impossible to say that there is no emotion at all, although the old man treats them badly, but they feel that they are still Li Dazhu's children, and the Cao family and Li Daniu are their grandparents.
If you want to change their minds, it won't happen overnight, so let's take one step at a time!
After putting it aside for a while, and couldn't hear the sound of the main room, Situ Yan persuaded the four brothers of the Li family to eat all the cakes, and then took out a water bag from the basket, took a sip of it herself, and then let the four of them drink some. Only then did Li Dalang take her to the thatched house, but Li Dalang took Situ Yan outside the courtyard, pointed to a vacant lot, and asked her to go up there, saying that the thatched house was too dark and she was afraid that Situ Yan would fall.
There was no way, Situ Yan had no choice but to settle. After returning to the house, the five people were lying on the kang, and Li Dalang arranged Xiao Wu in the middle, with San Lang and Shiro on the left, and Da Lang and Erlang on the right. Cover the youngest three with the only quilt in the house.
Situ Yan looked at this half-grown child, who was already taking care of his younger siblings like the head of a family, it was really a child from a poor family who was in charge early, and his father and mother left early, and his eldest brother was afraid that he would be a father and a mother again, and he would be miserable!
"Big brother, what time do people in this village go out in the morning, such as digging wild vegetables and collecting firewood?"
"Little sister, don't worry, these big brothers will do it, you can just rest in peace." Li Dalang thought that the little sister was going to help with the work, so he asked this.
As soon as Situ Yan heard it, she knew that Li Dalang had misunderstood, and she asked if she wanted to make trouble again when Li Dalang went out, one was to make the Cao family lose its reputation, and the other was to let the people in the village know that the four children of the Li family were ruthlessly kicked out of the house, so as to give herself a reasonable excuse to leave. lest the people in the village misunderstand and lose their reputation, and in the future there will not even be anyone in the village who is willing to help talk.
"Big brother, do you tell me first!" Situ Yan pretended to be coquettish, hugged Li Dalang's arm and shook it.
"Little five." Li Dalang really treated her as a child, and Situ Yan couldn't help but pout.
"The people in this village generally get up at the beginning of the rooster crow, and now that the autumn harvest is over, the men of the family go to the county to find some work, and the women have to go into the mountains to collect firewood and dig wild vegetables, so they go out when the sun rises in the middle of the year. If it snows for the first time in winter, and the snow closes the mountain, you usually stay at home, and it will be too cold to go out again, and you will get frostbite. Situ Yan calculated the time, got up at almost five o'clock, and went out at six o'clock. She still knows that she wants a cat winter in winter, when she was in a mountain village with her grandmother before, as soon as she entered the winter, her grandmother would revolve around the kang and rarely went out.
"Big brother, Xiao Wu wants to be a housekeeper, does Big Brother agree?" If you want the four children to listen to her little girl, Situ Yan has no bottom in her heart, she has a lot of things to do, if the eldest brother refuses to listen to her, then she can't do anything.
"Okay, the eldest brother looks at Xiao Wu as a successful person, and he will definitely be able to manage the family well, let's listen to Xiao Wu in the future." Li Dalang felt that the little sister was from the city, and she must know more than them in the village, although the little sister was still too young, but he just thought that she could manage the family well. In fact, Situ Yan also has to thank the Cao family, the Li family has always been a female housekeeper, so the four brothers Li Dalang also feel that there is nothing wrong with her being the housekeeper of the girl.
If Situ Yan knew that her housekeeper had also entrusted the Cao family's blessing, I am afraid that she would be so angry that she vomited blood.
"Thank you, eldest brother, do the second, third, and fourth brothers also agree with me to be a housekeeper?" Situ Yan thought that there were four men in this family, and they should be fair to things and people, so she asked them all.
"The eldest brother in the family has the final say. I listen to my eldest brother. Li Erlang originally meant to agree, but as soon as he said this, he felt strange, afraid that Xiao Wu would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained, "I mean, listen to the eldest brother, and also listen to the little five." ”
This explanation still feels strange, Li Erlang is anxious and doesn't know what to do, Shiro understands what the second brother means and helps explain, "The second brother, the third brother and I all agreed to let the little five butlers." ”
Li Erlang listened to Shiro's explanation clearly, and nodded in response, "Yes, yes, that's what it means." ”
San Lang also slowly followed and said, "I, same, meaning." Although it was slow, everyone waited for him to finish and did not rush him. My heart was happy for him.
"Thank you, brothers!" Situ Yan paused for a moment, and then said, "That big brother will get up again early tomorrow morning. The second brother just holds this quilt tomorrow and doesn't care about anything else. If the Cao family comes to rob it, you will run outside the courtyard, and shout while running, 'The milk and us have been kicked out by you, and my father's and mother's things have been taken away, I want to keep this quilt, which is made by my mother herself, and I beg the milk to leave a thought for me!' Be sure to shout loudly. It's good that the neighbors who want to shout hear it. ”
"Little Wu, what are you doing here? This is ugly, it's not a joke. Li Dalang's thoughts have been brainwashed by the Cao family, so he thinks these are all family matters, so it's better not to make trouble. Situ Yan also understands that change does not happen in a day or two, she has to start imperceptibly little by little. That's the best time.
"Then the big brother doesn't want Xiao Wu. If you don't make trouble, Xiao Wu will stay here and won't be able to leave. "At this time, talking too much to these four people will only make them suspicious or uncomfortable, and it is better to take some drastic medicine, since the four of them don't want to be separated from themselves, then talk about themselves.
"Yes, of course the eldest brother wants to, but I'm afraid that this trouble, grandma will be ruthless. At that time, Jiro will be beaten. ”
"No, Xiao Wu won't let the Cao family and Li Da Niu succeed. Ming'er's second brother made a fuss, and the Cao family would definitely chase and fight, and then the eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother knelt outside the gate together, begging her not to do anything. Then he said that you don't want to leave the house, this is cleaned out of the house, there is nothing to live in winter, you will freeze to death. If you want to cry, the worse you say, the better. Especially the third brother and the fourth brother, the louder you have to cry, the better. I'll take care of the rest. ”
Situ Yan's eyes were full of calculations, and she wanted to make these scumbags of the Li family regret it.
"Okay, just listen to Xiao Wu. So that Xiao Wu can really go with us? Li Dalang confirmed again, he likes this little sister very much now, and he is really afraid that he will not be able to leave by his grandmother.
"Don't worry, big brother, you will definitely go. I'm going to sing tomorrow morning, so my brothers are all resting! Situ Yan didn't speak again, opening her eyes and thinking about the details of these things tomorrow morning, don't make a mistake.
There was no more talk this night, the four brothers had not eaten so much for several years, and slept with a smile. Situ Yan and the other four of them fell asleep, so they covered the quilt for the eldest brother and the second brother, and took out their own quilt from the ring and covered it for her, the third brother and the fourth brother, and then took out another steamed bun from the ring and ate it, then closed their eyes and squinted for a while and took a nap.
