Chapter 1 The Lady of the Luo Family

Next Chapter

In the last years of South Vietnam, the world of Liuhe was divided, and the feudal lords in various places established themselves as kings. The entire territory of South Vietnam was mired in years of war, and the people struggled with fire and water, weathered the storm and were displaced.

Under the flames of war, the miserable days of the people lasted for decades, and the porous South Vietnam finally returned to the Yuan family. Murong Clan, the princely family of the northern border, was born majestic and strategic, upright, and led the army to pacify the Central Plains in one fell swoop.

After that, Yuan's country was named Wenyuan, and the year name was Yongping, and since then the capital Guangling has been called the emperor.

In the sixth year of Yongping, in the golden autumn of September.

Wenyuan is a new country, and thousands of miles away from the royal city, there is a border town, which is backed by green mountains, facing the stream, the mountain peaks are full of clouds and smoke, the bluestone paved stairs wind down, and the red maples on both sides of the road are swaying.

Going down the stairs, you will arrive at Luoquan Town, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers.

The town is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the bustling log cabins form a harmonious picture, which looks calm and peaceful under the smoke of the early morning.

Only one family seemed particularly depressed and even dilapidated. A flock of chickens, which should have been in the fence, jumped up and down after crowing and crossed the small cabins that had been swept away by the fire, the beams of the main house barely supported, and the charred roof was simply covered with thatch, and the chickens did not enter the main house, but fluttered their wings and poured into the open stove.

"Cluck-"

"! Less annoying, go! "The firewood was crackling, and a woman immediately got up from the stove and swept away the chickens with the unadded firewood in her hand.

The flock panicked and scattered.

"There's nowhere to lock you up, is there?! If you mess with the old lady again, you will kill the chicken and get the eggs! The woman exclaimed, though she did not know what it meant to kill chickens for their eggs.

The woman looked no more than thirty years old, and although she was dressed in burlap and had a hairpin tied up by a hairpin, her appearance was dazzlingly beautiful. According to her age, it can be seen that this beautiful young woman's cardamom years were born in the war era, and she was really unlucky, married a troubled official young master in the turbulent era, surnamed Luo, the two are talented and beautiful, very matched, but the good times did not last long and separated due to the war so far, until now she is still alone with the little girl under her knees to live in her mother's house, and the same generation of dim sum mother's family to make a living so far.

It coincided with the golden autumn season, and her family's luck was not good, and the sudden fire burned down her house during the harvest season.

"Ouch, who upset our Yueniang this morning?" Following the prestige, I saw an old lady with a round figure and powdered cheeks passing through the decaying fence yard of her house.

There is no one in this matchmaker who does not know each other, and she wants to come for mercenary, but who calls her popular, if she really has to ask her to take a look at the girl in this ten miles and eight towns, Yueniang has become a wife, and the girl promised a big family, I don't want to take care of this matchmaker, but now I look at the situation of my own family, and I can only hang out a three-point smile and greet each other with a smile.

"Aunt Li, you went out so early today, did you have a fancy to a girl and boy and told people that you went to kiss?"

This Li matchmaker is a well-known matchmaker in Luoquan Town, and all girls and boys who see people on the street with a slightly flat head and a straight face can pull people to ask about the three aunts and six courtyards, so that they can tell people about the matchmaker.

The so-called nothing to go to the Three Treasures Palace, Mrs. Li laughed when she heard this, stared at the stove that was blackened and cracked by the smoke, hesitated for a moment and carefully walked around from the stove to the lady of the Luo family, and said almost as follows: "What kind of friendship do we have, this good aunt must take care of you first, no, there is just a good family, I will be the first to think of you!" ”

"Take care of me? What do I have to care about at my age? You mean my girl. "In the current situation of my own family, it is good to build a grass shed at home without leaking rain, this Aunt Li has always been a powerful person, will she think of her at this time? Luo Jiayueniang thought about it a few times, and finally only joked distrustfully.

The lady of the Luo family deliberately avoided it, which made the matchmaker a little embarrassed, and immediately lowered her voice and motioned for the lady of the Luo family to lean over: "It's not your girl, it's inconvenient here, let's talk inside." ”

As soon as she heard that she was going to enter the back room, Yueniang immediately knew that Mrs. Li was not a good fart and wanted to drive people away.

"Then forget it, you know that my family is now sick and lying in the house, and it is inconvenient to see outsiders, so you can just say anything here." Yueniang refused indifferently, already interested in Aunt Li's purpose, picked up the spatula on the side and opened the lid of the pot, gently stirred the green vegetable porridge in the pot, and obviously liked not to say anything about the matchmaker's words.

The matchmaker hesitated, this was really inappropriate to say outside, so people listened to it and said that they couldn't be a man.

Hesitantly, she caught a glimpse of the small porridge in the pot, where were a few rice grains in it, and the green vegetables were all green leaves, but I was afraid that this fire would make it difficult for the Wang family to uncover the pot, she sighed even the company commander: "Look at you, a family of four eats some side dishes with clear soup and little water early in the morning?" Now that the two elders are burned in bed, don't say that your aunt didn't think about you. I'm not here for myself this time, I'm really here to help you, you're a woman, you buy some snacks and do some coolies to barely support your family, but now your three patients are lying down, they need to take medicine when they are in pain, and they want to eat when they are hungry......"

"Okay, I have a headache when you mention this, just say what you have to say, busy." Yueniang began to be impatient, how hard she worked to take care of the family, she was willing, and she was annoyed that someone was talking in her ear, especially the impure purpose of the matchmaker who believed in Li, she was already enduring not to turn her face with her.

Mrs. Li couldn't help but see her posture of driving people away, so she simply told the truth, maybe people agreed, "Yes, my aunt knows that you are a cheerful person, and I won't go around in circles." You see that your boss is not young, and you had a bad life at the beginning, and you promised that Luo Gongzi at a young age, what was the result? Just conceived your girl, your man left, you look at you haven't waited for anyone for more than ten years, this war is raging, whether you are dead or alive, there should be a letter, you should also plan for yourself, we Luoquan Town's Wang shopkeeper you know, at that time, our big family here, also lonely for many years, is trying to continue the string, but also your Yueniang reputation, should have this blessing, Wang shopkeeper also fell in love with you, people said, as long as you nodded and agreed, he must be married to ...... media"

"Bang!!" The spatula hit the edge of the blackened iron pot directly, making a huge impact sound, and the matchmaker subconsciously shuddered.

Yueniang's originally fair cheeks quickly turned red, her apricot eyes were slightly dumbfounded, and she was so angry that she couldn't speak for a while.

When she came back to her senses, she immediately wanted to bomb her out, but when she thought about what she had just said, she felt that it was too cheap to rush out like this, and she was not bullied by this woman in vain: "Phew! You old thing, you still know that I am a married woman? Did you say so? Regardless of him, Ming Media is marrying eight sedan chairs, I have a man! I will never marry in my life, whether I am dead or alive, I have to wait for him to come back, Mrs. Li, you are also a person who is nearly half a hundred years old and has children and daughters, are you like this? ”

Yueniang was neither humble nor arrogant, and the matchmaker was scolded angrily, her voice was clear and crisp, like her temperament was not muddy at all, and suddenly attracted a lot of inquiring eyes to explore their Wang family, and the matchmaker was suddenly embarrassed.

After all, I shouldn't have talked about it outside, and the matchmaker said angrily: "Luo Niangzi, don't be ignorant, if it weren't for your embarrassment, pity you, you think that your broken shoes, how can such a good thing cheapen you!" Do you think you're really some kind of chaste martyr? I don't believe that you have been widowed for more than ten years and can endure loneliness, I don't know how many men you have hooked up with everywhere in the neighborhood, and you have crawled a butt of ashes! ”

Seeing that Mrs. Li slandered herself for stealing wild men, the Yueniang in front of her was so angry that she was furious, her face was purple, and she wanted to scold this stinky old woman for a while, but she didn't expect Mrs. Li to inch in, only to see Yueniang throw the spatula in her hand, pick up her sleeves and go up.

Just listen to "Smack!" With a bang, Mrs. Li's brain buzzed, and there were suddenly five finger prints on her face.

"Hey? How dare you hit me! Mrs. Li crooked her mouth angrily, and as soon as her skinny fingers were bent into claws, she was about to grab the hair on Yueniang's face, and Yueniang did not show weakness, in the end, it was the young man who had the upper hand, Yueniang was looking at it and there was no reason to fight again, and when she saw this old woman doing it, she immediately grabbed her hair and slapped her a few times.

Mrs. Li was already screaming after receiving a few slaps, Yueniang made up her mind to look good, a pair of powerful and slender hands pulled people's hair and slammed them on the ground, Mrs. Li fell to the ground in pain, her hair was scattered, and she couldn't get up for a while while with an old bone.

Mrs. Li supported the ground with her hands, her eyes were full of stars, and she didn't have time to backhand, so she listened to Yueniang scolding in front of her neighbors.

"Okay, you stinky old woman, our Wang family has been doing dim sum business for generations, what's wrong with dealing with neighbors? Who can't get out of my Wang's dim sum shop when they enter my Wang's dim sum shop? The old lady's line is done right, and the business is bright! That round got your old woman to splash dirty water, you yourself are also weighed and weighed, dare to come to my house to move the black and white seems to be reversed, be careful I tear your mouth! ”

Mrs. Li suffered a big loss, and the neighbors in the neighborhood began to persuade her again, but it was not Yueniang who beat people who persuaded her, but she was not: "Mrs. Li, you are also over half a hundred years old, how can you do such a lack of morality?" I really can't get on the stage, you do this, who will dare to talk to you in the future? Fortunately, Yueniang doesn't care much about you, and if you apologize for a gift, this matter will be over, ah! ”

This kitchen is already small, and the people who watch the excitement surround her, and now Yueniang is obviously taking advantage of it, and if she doesn't apologize now, I'm afraid she won't be able to get out, and she is angry, this embarrassing appearance makes people watch and make her die of shame, and she just wants to leave the Shura field that makes her embarrassed as soon as possible.

Mrs. Li struggled to get up, her face was swollen and red, so she couldn't wipe her face, so she could only half-cover her face, reluctantly apologize to Yueniang, and also lost the money under the coaxing of the neighbors from all over the world, and then fled in the wilderness.

With a bad breath, Yueniang humbly and politely thanked the neighbors one by one, then put away a hanging copper coin, and added gnocchi to the pot before bringing it into the house to honor her father and mother.

As soon as she entered the house, Yueniang smiled with steaming green vegetable gnocchi: "Dad, mother, I woke you up." ”

Obviously, what happened outside just now reached the ears of the second elder word for word.

Welcoming Yueniang, there was a helpless sigh, "Although the matchmaker doesn't know how to be a person, and her foul language behavior is hateful, but you beat people up so impulsively, with our current situation, if she has the heart to retaliate and hold a grudge, wouldn't it be even worseβ€”β€”"

Yueniang has her own plans, "But if she rides on my head this time, she still thinks I'm a bully, won't it be more difficult to get rid of in the future?" It's better to stop the loss in time and give her a good time. ”

"Oh, forget it, this Li matchmaker has always been a bully and afraid of the hard, Yueniang connived at her once and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no second time, and now that she has torn her face, even if she holds a grudge, she still dares to kill people, but she has offended her, and she has been gossiped, instead of worrying about this, it is better to worry about her own livelihood." Aunt Wang said to her old man.

"Livelihood? Don't you see both of us lying in bed now? What do you take to earn a living except for eating with your mouth open? The shopkeeper couldn't help but roar, his eyes glowed with a little light, and he said helplessly: "The family is not well-off, and now, the daily medicine money is a lot of expenses, and it is a person who is half buried in the soil. ”

As soon as she heard Uncle Wang say the word death, Aunt Wang, a woman, couldn't help crying: "You think I don't want to die? If it weren't for the hope that our little granddaughter would wake up, I would have died a long time ago, and if I didn't see Qinghe open his eyes, I wouldn't be able to turn a blind eye to death. ”

That day's fire, if it weren't for the little granddaughter rushing in to save the two elders, the two elders might have been dead a long time ago.

So at this mention, Uncle Wang couldn't help but scold, "I can see through this dog son, I knew that it was such a thing that was born, I shouldn't have raised him in the first place, I had a daughter-in-law and forgot Lao Tzu's beast, and I actually fell in love with Qinghe's dowry, and dared to burn the family for a little money, and now the family is burned down, and the family is surrounded by walls, and I take my children away and fly away, and sooner or later I will be retributed!" ”

Yueniang was stunned and listened to the two elders vent with her gnocchi, so she pretended to be angry and said: "Okay, what do you say early in the morning that you can't die, beware of really attracting the black and white impermanence, I will put this gnocchi here for you, I have to go and see the little girl." ”

The two elders stopped at this time, and in order to live up to their daughter's heart, they ate one bite at a time.

In fact, no matter what, Yueniang is willing to work hard, and now she is most worried about her daughter, who has never woken up, and has seen Lang Zhong also have no medicine, and when they all go out, the two old men saw Yueniang turn back.

I saw her squirm and say: "I recently thought that the family's money had nowhere to come from, so I asked someone to find a job for me, but I didn't expect my aunt to really find it for me." ”

"Where's the work?"

"Fang's."

"Fang family, which family?" Aunt Wang listened and put down her chopsticks and wondered.

"Hey, it's that Fang family with thousands of acres of fertile land and rich Jia!" When the shopkeeper Wang heard this, he hurriedly said: "Girl, it must be a good job for his family to lack people, you have to behave well when you go!" ”

"Got it!" Yueniang casually agreed, and then turned around and went to the house where her daughter was.

Yueniang, as always, said a lot of intimate words to her daughter, she lowered her head and stroked her daughter's forehead, her face was full of love.

I saw that the girl's fingers had a slight sensation, and under the slight sound made by Yueniang, the girl who was sleeping on the kang began to wake up slowly.
