My Heroes (6)
"Kill more pigs to make some money." Seeing that he was in a good mood, Lily added another sentence, Zhang Hongyi only thought that she wanted to live a good life with herself, and when she said this, she nodded busily:
"In the future, when I get married and live, I will definitely work hard."
"I didn't want to drink porridge anymore, so I cooked dry rice." Lily bit the chopsticks, Zhang Hongyi didn't put the bowl, and nodded again and again. Lily glanced at him, "There is no rice in the tank, and you don't want to be unable to even support your daughter-in-law, so quit drinking tomorrow and save your money." ”
“……”
She said for a long time, but the words were buried here, Zhang Hongyi felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, he lowered his head and took a big bite of food, and thought about it: "Otherwise, I'll go find some work tomorrow." ”
Killing pigs and selling meat is actually a livelihood, he has been a butcher for a few years, if he can live a down-to-earth life, he will not end up in a broken house now, but he can play with his brothers, and sometimes if there is a crisis among friends, he will spill the silver in his hand. He is a fierce scoundrel to others, and his reputation in the market is not good, and there are ordinary people who are afraid of him, but he really has nothing to say to his brothers.
When he heard that Lily told him not to go out to drink anymore, he hesitated, not wanting to break off contact with his former friends, but thinking that Lily was right.
In the past, he fed the whole family and was not hungry, but now there are more people in the family, even if he is not anxious about himself, he should think about Lily.
After thinking about it, he decided to find another errand to do: "Anyway, I have all my strength, and there is a shortage of manpower in the county." One day I went, and I heard that the old evil man in the yamen couldn't stand it, and the eldest sixth son intended to recommend me to go. "What did he say in his mouth'Wang Lao Xi'er', and what 'Big Six', Lily could only guess out of thin air that these people should be his friends, he finished a bowl of rice, licked his mouth, obviously not full, seeing that Lily was holding the bowl and holding chopsticks and not moving, some couldn't help it:
"Eat quickly."
He is tall and big. The amount of food should not be small. In the past, he worked by himself to support him, but now he has to raise one more of himself inexplicably, plus Lily is still sick after entering the mission during this time, and he has taken a few medicines. It was clearly stressing him. Lily sighed. Picking up the bowl and driving half of the rice to him, he frowned as if he was about to get angry, and Lily held the bowl: "I can't eat so much." But who is the old evil child, and who is the eldest sixth son? ”
Zhang Hongyi lowered his eyelids, the black and big face that looked quite fierce with an indescribable forbearance, his lips trembled, as if he was a little stunned, just now Lily's actions made him silent, after a long time he stood up, poured the rice in the bowl into the lily bowl, got up and walked towards the stove, the sparks in the stove have not been completely extinguished, he took the firewood into the stove, dialed it twice, the fire' The coaxing was burning, and there were still some pots in the pot that were not cleaned, so he scooped up a scoop of water and poured it in, and smashed them with a shovel:
"Eat yours by yourself! The woman is a woman, with long hair and heavy thoughts, I have a lot of strength, I can't die of hunger if I eat less, look at your kitten-like, I can't hear my voice clearly when I speak. His face was a little red in the light of the fire, and the pot was boiling, and the water boiled a small half pot on the pot, and as soon as it boiled the 'bones' and braving the heat, he shoveled twice, and added a large bowl, and then sat back on the table:
"Wang Lao Xi'er is from the yamen and is the executioner." After he finished speaking, as if he was afraid that Lily would not understand what the executioner meant, he added: "It is to cut off people's heads." ”
There are many slaves and criminals in Yingzhou, and there are many foreigners, and there are many people who are traitors and criminals, and sometimes the army can even catch those spies. It is precisely because of this that there are many people who die here, and their lives are not worth much, and the people have long been numb.
The reputation of the executioner is not good, most of them still use this title to scold people, in other places, this profession is generally passed down from generation to generation, but because of the particularity of this place in Yingzhou, there are too many dead people, the executioner is not enough, some people do not do a good job, cut for three or five days, the prisoner's head can not be cut off, Zhang Hongyi has great strength, courage is also big, and the evil spirit on the person is also heavy, the big six son he said in his mouth is his friend in the market, and he is doing a quick catch under the Yingzhou County Division at this time, so he has a way, Just pushed Zhang Hongyi to go.
The name of this profession is not good, coupled with scary, many people think that it is bad for yin and morality, and they are not very willing to do it, Zhang Hongyi is not so worried, he just doesn't like to be restrained, he doesn't like to eat public food, do public things, he has been pushing it before, and now listening to Lily let him make good money, he is a little moved.
When Lily heard that he was going to be an executioner, the whole person was a little unkind, this guy talked about killing people sparsely and ordinarily, no wonder Zhou Lihe in the plot was afraid of him.
"You ......" Lily poked the rice with chopsticks, but Zhang Hongyi didn't seem to realize what he said: "Anyway, killing pigs is killing, killing is killing, at least you have a legitimate livelihood, earn more money, and I'm not afraid of starving you." ”
Killing pigs and killing people are already two concepts.
"If you want to make money, you can also think of other ways, so don't look at it anymore." Lily is not afraid of killing, but he heard him cut off his head so lightly, after thinking about it, he persuaded him to endure, Zhang Hongyi only thought that she was afraid, and regretted that he should not say this in front of the cowardly little lady, I heard that she was from a big family, and he must not like to listen to these fights and killings, he thought that he was from a humble background, and he didn't know how to read half a bucket, he thought that she was cooking and making a fire just now, and then thinking that she had rushed half a bowl of rice to herself, after the death of his father and mother in his lifetime, no one had treated him so well, Even if he knew that Lily was actually raised by him now, and he should have been nicer to him, Zhang Hongyi was still a little moved.
He was actually dispensable for this daughter-in-law before, after all, he bought it back for five cents, if he drank less wine for a few days, when the people in the inn sold her, it was almost sold as a dead person, and he just didn't want to throw the corpse at all, he had the idea of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, but he didn't expect to save her, he thought that it would be good to pass on the family from now on, this daughter-in-law would definitely be afraid of him, but he didn't expect her to be cowardly in appearance, but she was not small, and dared to negotiate conditions with him.
Zhang Hongyi is not a good person, it is not for nothing that he bullies good people in the market, and he has done a lot of fights and brawls, but he is not a black conscience and a rotten liver, women don't like him, as long as he tells him, he may not be forced, but at this moment he is really a little hesitant, this little girl makes him a little reluctant to let go, there are more people in the family, it is like a home, some people cook, some people care that he is not full, when he thinks that he is not worthy of her, Zhang Hongyi holds the half bowl of pot paste, Suddenly, I felt like I couldn't eat it anymore.
"Tell me, what's your name? The people in the post house, who said that your surname was Zhou, was called Zhou, who else are there in your family, what do your fathers and brothers usually call you? Zhang Hongyi's heart was blocked, and a sense of grievance rose from his heart, but he was used to not admitting defeat, although he realized that he might not be worthy of this official lady, but he was not discouraged, but began to ask Lily: "Don't talk about that." ”
At this time, people only call women surnames, and they don't care about their names, the relationship between Zhang Hongyi and the original owner in the plot is not intimate, and she has never asked her name, Zhou Baihe was afraid of him like a tiger in the early stage, and he was impatient to talk to Zhou Baihe for a long time, the two of them took a day, sometimes they couldn't say two sentences, in the early stage, everyone called Zhou Baihe Zhou's, and later exchanged with Zhang Hongyi, so she called her Zhang's family, until Zhou Baihe died, Zhang Hongyi didn't know her name, I don't know why Zhang Hongyi actually remembered to ask at this time.
Lily saw him throw the dishes and chopsticks, but there was a little strange in his heart, Zhang Hongyi never went to his heart when he had something, he was sharp when he ate, and he could snore when he lay down, and he didn't even eat at this time, just listening to his question, she also put the dishes and chopsticks:
"My surname is Zhou, you know, my name is Lily, the Zhou family started from the ancestors, because the ancestors at that time learned the art of the royal road, taught the prince to be meritorious, was enshrined, hereditary five generations." Lily told the life experience of the original owner, what kind of royal art he heard, and what he listened to, Zhang Hongyi felt a little chill in his heart, he grew up in Yingzhou since he was a child, and the biggest deal he had ever had was the big six son in the yamen, and he hadn't seen a character like the county order a few times, but he didn't expect to get a daughter-in-law, and he would be born in Houfu.
No wonder she didn't want to marry herself, Zhang Hongyi was happy and sad, happy that he inadvertently bought back a sin slave, the people in the post house only said that it was a crime, he originally thought that at most it was the daughter of an official housekeeper's wife, where did he think that it was a big lady.
Lily briefly said the situation at home, Zhang Hongyi knew her origin, but he couldn't listen to the words at all, he drank the pot in the bowl like chewing wax, washed the pot himself, and saw Lily cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, his face was cloudy.
The two didn't speak again, Lily was worried about the original owner's wishes, but Zhang Hongyi didn't know what he was thinking, and when the two of them lay on the bed, he was obviously a lot more restrained.
Before dawn in the morning, he got up and went out to kill pigs and sell meat, and Lily came back before he had finished a round of physical exercises.
In the past few days, Lily can be regarded as figuring out his general rules, he usually sells meat and will come back before noon, and he came back so early today, there is still most of the pork in the basket he is carrying, and a bunch of palm leaves are thrown messily on the other side.
He opened the door, and in the morning the lily had boiled water and soaked the mint leaves to cool down, which was not yet completely cool, and was handing it to him to moisten his throat. (To be continued......)
