The two hurried over, and saw from a distance that the people in the village were gathered in front of the house next to Gu Qingzhu's house, Aunt Gu had just passed away last year, and the New Year was not happy to post the red Spring Festival couplets Tianqian'er, at this time, against the backdrop of the surrounding torches, the old house was dark and gloomy, without a trace of life, and it was even more decaying.

In the courtyard, Gu Shigui was confronting Gu Shifu and shouting: "Why can't I pick up his house!" Lao Liangtou's family is an outsider, this is all dead, and it still dominates the foundation of our village, which is not clear about occupying the pit and not! ”

"What are you talking about! Although the old Liangtou and his wife are gone, but the brothers are full of warehouses and just go to serve in the military, maybe they will come back one day, you will demolish his house and raise chickens at this time, let me be an uncle, how will I explain in the future! Gu Shifu stopped in front of him with his arms outstretched.

"Those two boys have been out for five years, but I'm afraid that they have already become lonely ghosts, do they still have to keep houses for the dead in the village?" Gu Shigui brandished his hoe and roared sharply.

"Lao Liangtou is a famous hunter in our area, he is good at archery when he is young, he must be fine, besides, I went to the town to discuss matters before, and I heard that the war in the south has been settled, and the people who went out will come back soon, we all live in a village, and we don't see you when you look up and look down, why do you do this kind of lack of virtue that destroys people's houses!"

Gu Shifu couldn't understand that Gu Shigui was a good gambler on weekdays, and he hadn't done anything serious for so many years, so at this time, why did he want to raise chickens on a whim?

Some time ago, the housekeeper of the gambling house took his men to collect debts several times, ransacked his house, and never let go of a chicken, so he barely repaid a little profit, but later, no matter how coerced, he could no longer squeeze out oil and water, the gambling house asked for money, and he didn't open a human meat bun shop, so he couldn't really break his arms and legs to pay off the debt.

Fortunately, the black feather rooster was taken back to Nancang County and trained to fight cocks, and for a while he won many battles and won many times, without defeat, and earned a considerable amount of money for the owner of the gambling house, which has already exceeded the gambling debts owed by Gu Shigui, but the gambling house could not let go of Gu Shigui so easily, and when he collected debts again, he was mercifully and mercifully lenient for half a year, and let him raise a batch of black feather roosters to pay off his debts.

This is a good thing for Gu Shigui, who was cornered and was always worried about missing arms and legs, it was a pie-in-the-sky thing, he didn't think about it, and immediately agreed.

Although there is a large vacant land in the backyard, he is too lazy to go up the mountain to cut trees and quarry stones to build a chicken coop, so he set his eyes on Liang Mancang's house, which is temporarily uninhabited.

Qingsong was reading a book next door, and was disturbed by the sound of smashing the wall, he wondered in his heart, at this time, the spring tea is about to be served, and it is too late for the family to be busy picking tea, who will rush to repair the house at this time?

When he saw his second uncle smashing the wall next door in the courtyard, he was startled, he didn't know Gu Shigui's plans at all, but it was certain that his second uncle was doing something bad, and this bad thing might threaten their sister and brother.

Gu Qingsong didn't dare to make a noise, he only quietly locked the door and went out to find the village chief, Gu Shifu got the news, he couldn't believe it, he left the work in the tea garden, hurried over, and saw that Liang Mancang's house had been smashed out of a big hole by Gu Shigui, and in a few more clicks, he would be able to get into a person.

Gu Shifu reasoned with him bitterly, but Gu Shigui couldn't listen to it at all, and he scolded even more.

Gu Qingsong had been nervously following the development of things, and even forgot that Gu Qingzhu hadn't come back yet, and it wasn't until it was dark that he remembered to ask Rhubarb to pick it up.

Just as Gu Shigui, who was messing around, the more outrageous he became, a small pebble was thrown into Gu Shitong's face with great force, and flew over with oblique eyes, and the sharp edge cut a long hole on his face.

"Ahh Who, who is the Madmadr who hurts me? Gu Shigui covered his face and screamed in pain.

"If you want to die, you have no grievances and no revenge, how can you be ruthless!" When Wu saw the blood flowing from Gu Shigui's fingers, he was distressed, and shouted at the crowd of onlookers.

"You demolish my house and occupy my house, isn't this hatred big enough?" Liang Mancang had already arrived, squeezed through the crowd, and said angrily.

"You...... Who are you, a human or a ghost? Wu was so frightened that his hair stood on end, just now he was talking about their brother's death, and at this moment, someone appeared in the dark, and he really couldn't stand the chatter.

"I'm Liang Mancang, Grandma Wu just hopes that I'm a dead person, but unfortunately it can't be as you wish, I'm back with my eldest brother today!" Liang Mancang unburdened himself and took out a white porcelain jar and held it in the palm of his hand.

When the villagers saw this, they were all stunned, the young man who went out five years ago has grown into a young man with broad shoulders and a strong body, and the white porcelain jar in his hand is shining with gray and dead light under the surrounding firelight, which is terrifying.

"You...... You ...... "Don't say that the Wu family was scared, even Gu Shigui's head buzzed, today, my luck is too much, it's just stealing chickens and rice!"

Gu Shigui saw that Liang Mancang's body was overflowing with a faint murderous aura, and he muttered in his heart, these people who have been on the battlefield are used to bloody slaughter, killing people like slaughtering chickens, and Liang Mancang just took a warning, and he already had a big mouth on his face, if he stays forcibly, let alone occupy people's houses, he is afraid that his life will be difficult to protect, what kind of unlucky chickens will he raise, it is better to leave as soon as possible.

When Gu Shigui thought of this, he didn't call Wu Shi, he covered his face and walked away.

"Wait for me!" When Wu saw his son leaving, he had no support, so he trotted to chase after him.

"Folks, I'm back from Liang Mancang, thank you for taking care of my mother all these years! My brother is gone, but I definitely remember the good of everyone, who has something to do, just say a word, I have been out for five years, although I haven't earned any money, I have a lot of strength! Liang Mancang held the white porcelain jar in his arms and bowed solemnly.

"Your brother has been gone for five years, and there is no news at all, your mother is worried about you all day long, her eyes are crying, and her body is getting worse day by day, if you can survive for a few more months, maybe it will wait for you, hey, this is all fate!"

"Oh, it's good to come back, it's just a pity that your eldest brother, I think how strong a guy he was back then, why don't you say it's gone!"

"There is a good saying in the drama, once you will become famous for eternity, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, you will be in chaos for five years, I don't know how many people have died outside, it is good to come back safely!"

The onlookers shook their heads and sighed, tearing tears of sympathy for the destruction of the Liang family.

"Alright, alright, it's getting late, let's all disperse." Gu Shifu waved at the crowd.

"Uncle Fu! Thank you! Liang Mancang approached him and thanked him gratefully.

"Wherever you say, you live in a village, what's polite, your grandfather's family was originally our Gujiaao, don't talk about those false courtesies, you came back so late, and there was no food or drink at home, let's make do with it at my house first." Gu Shifu grabbed his arm and said.

"Thank you, Uncle Fu, when I settle down, my brother will come over." Liang Mancang nodded.

His mother is gone, the warmth of a bowl of porridge is missing, the waiting of a lamp, and now a wall has been broken.

Seeing that he agreed, Gu Shifu didn't say anything anymore, patted him on the shoulder, turned his head and left, and the people in the village also left one after another.

Liang Mancang played the fire fold he carried with him, and a dim light appeared under his feet, he couldn't open the door, only to find that the door knocker was locked by an old lock, he was stunned for a moment, although his mother was gone, but the home was still well guarded.

"Brother Mancang, you wait for me, I'll go and get the key." Gu Qingzhu said in a low voice.

Gu Qingzhu went home and put down the back basket, looked for the key in the long drawer, held it tightly, and trotted to the next door.

Liang Mancang took the key, twisted it slightly, "click" a crisp sound, the lock opened in response, the house was often cleaned, and when he walked in, there was no expected cobwebs and choking dust.

Lighting the oil lamp on the table with a fire fold, Liang Mancang stood up and looked around, and the four times were still exactly the same as when he left home, except that the fireworks were missing for too long, and there was no figure of his mother who he had missed for five years.

"Brother Mancang, I'll go back first." Gu Qingzhu couldn't bear it, but he couldn't say too many words of persuasion.

She empathizes with his pain, this kind of feeling of losing a loved one forever is not something that others can persuade in a few words, and she has to rely on herself to come out slowly.

Tonight, for Liang Mancang, it is destined to be heavy, his parents and elder brother have left him one after another, and in the future, he is the only one in this world, and he has to live with the spirit of twelve points, and the burden on his shoulders is still heavy.

Gu Qingzhu was tired today, not only did she drive more than 40 miles back and forth, her body was tired and panicked, but the fright she suffered in the calligraphy and painting shop and the encounter on Jiguanzi Mountain made her mentally exhausted, and she would not tell her younger siblings about all this, they were too young to bear these fears.

After eating a bowl of porridge for dinner, Gu Qingzhu washed and went to sleep, Gu Qingsong only made tea for a day, and went out to sell tea in the mountains, she was tired, she didn't care too much, and only told Qingying not to quarrel with her.

The second day was still gray weather, gloomy as if to wring out the water, Gu Qingzhu slept all night, her physical strength and spirit were restored, she hurried to the tea garden to check the new tea, yesterday it was foggy for most of the day, and today's weather is not suitable for picking, but the bud tea moistened by the wind and dew does not wait for anyone, the buds and leaves have cracked, and they are divided into a little leaf tips.

In this way, the lotus heart tea in Gu Qingzhu Tea Garden is over this year, and the village is waiting to pick the fresh leaves of the lotus heart, counting on the tea farmers who are selling at a good price are anxious.

When the fresh tea grows into a bud and a young leaf, the upright bud is like a sharp spear, and the unfolded leaf is like a battle flag, so it is vividly called the flag gun, and the price of the flag gun will be less than three percent of the lotus heart.

Tea farmers look forward to the stars and the moon left and right and other stubble buds, several times a day to the tea garden to see the growth, this is to pick, but did not wait for a good day, everyone is depressed and aggrieved, and this unlucky weather, sad clouds and misty, gray face.
