When he was ten years old, Jiang Xiaoyu experienced a lot of things. Including his favorite sister Li Yue, she left silently.

"I was married to the owner of a workshop in the steel mill as a concubine. Otherwise, with the ability of that stupid boy of the Li family, how could he enter the steel factory? After practicing for so many years, he didn't even have a nine-grade superior. The "Fire Resistance Gong", which is compulsory in the steel plant, is not practiced solidly. Can he get into the steel mill?"

Jiang Xiaoyu's father said so.

At that time, the young Jiang Xiaoyu didn't know what Jiang's father meant by these words. He just knew that Li Yue was married, and he was not married to an upright Ming media.

The owner who married Li Yue is over fifty years old, whether Li Yue likes him or not? It doesn't matter, as long as he takes a fancy to Li Yue.

Jiang Xiaoyu cried very sadly that week, he had never cried so sadly in his life. Even took him to hate Aunt Li and Brother Li, who had always been very good to him.

"Don't blame you Aunt Li and Big Brother Li. Father Jiang, who had always been at odds with the Li family, spoke to each other for the first time: "The owner of a workshop in the steel factory has more than 1,000 people under his command. Can a broken household like the Li family disobey such a landlord?"

"You know, your Aunt Li is just washing bed sheets and quilt covers for those hotels in Xicheng to make money. ”

"The eldest son of the Li family didn't even finish Mengxue, and he couldn't read all the words, so he could only sell coolies to the Fish and Dragon Gang on the dock. Together, the two of them don't earn more than twenty gold dollars a month. Let's see if your sister Li Yue rarely goes out after she turns fourteen?"

Jiang Xiaoyu looked up at his father: "That's because Sister Li Yue wants to help the family make money to supplement the family, and she makes money as a female celebrity at home." ”

"Bullshit. It's just that the Li family doesn't want her to show up. Li Yue looks good, and when she goes out more, there will always be floating prodigals staring at her. Xiaoyu, you have to understand that a girl born in this kind of family is even a mistake to be beautiful!"

"Why?"

Father Jiang stroked Jiang Xiaoyu's head: "Because I don't have the ability to protect this beauty." If you can't protect it, you can only let the rain and wind blow away. ”

"It's already good to marry Li Yue to the owner of the steel mill as a concubine. I know that some leaders of the Fish and Dragon Gang also took a fancy to Li Yue before, and wanted the Li family to hand over Li Yue to him as a concubine. ”

"The lesser of two evils, marrying the owner of the steel mill can at least give the Li family a chance to enter. At least Li Yue, her eldest brother doesn't have to sell coolies on the docks, and he can't make money. There is no need to be afraid to participate in the vendetta of the rivers and lakes. ”

"Then Sister Li Yue's life will be good?" Jiang Xiaoyu stared at his father with big eyes.

Father Jiang didn't look at him, but looked at the sky and said, "It should be good, at least better than here." The owner of the steel mill can get at least one or two thousand gold dollars a year. Li Yue's delicious food and drink should be constant. ”

"Li Yue's brother has this relationship, and he shouldn't suffer much in the steel factory. It's easy to mix up a job. ”

"Jiang Xiaoyu, you have to remember. In this world, if you can't get ahead, you can't become a human being. Then you don't expect to get anything. You like Sister Li Yue, even if you grow up in the future and marry Li Yue. But you don't have the power to protect her, and she'll still be taken away. ”

"It's like this Li family on the other side. Their protection is useless. There is no point in meeting people who are stronger than them and more powerful than them. ”

Father Jiang stared at Jiang Xiaoyu: "You have to get ahead, only those who have the ability to get ahead are qualified to make choices in the empire." Otherwise, you are a small fish in the Cangjiang River, if you are lucky, you will live to death, and if you are unlucky, you will be caught by the fisherman and sent to the restaurant, and you don't know what to cook and give it to people to eat. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu didn't understand what his father meant by what he said at that time, so he just nodded subconsciously.

After a month, Brother Li entered the factory, and after another three months, Brother Li's family moved out. Jiang Xiaoyu felt that they should go and live a good life.

Sister Li Yue married someone she didn't like, so life always had to be better.

The days will go on, and Jiang Xiaoyu will continue to live. Although his father told him a lot, Jiang Xiaoyu only heard one sentence, that is, if he doesn't get ahead and become a big man, then even if he marries a girl like Sister Li Yue, he can't keep it.

But having said that, Jiang Xiaoyu didn't think that his father could educate him to be a big man.

Because his father doesn't look very powerful. Although he said in his mouth that Brother Li had not practiced to the ninth grade. And what about himself, not even the ninth grade intermediate.

Father Jiang is a person who has no talent for martial arts at all! All he can do is to talk about some strange things that he made up in Goolan Vashe in Xicheng.

A better way to put it is called a storyteller. If you don't hear it, you're a showman.

Although Jiang's father often complained at home, saying that the damn XXX (the voice was too low for Jiang Xiaoyu to hear) had copied everything that could be copied, so that he had nothing to continue plagiarizing.

This is something that Jiang's father complains about every day, although Jiang Xiaoyu has no idea what his father is complaining about.

However, the conditions of the Jiang family are indeed very ordinary. The father and son also had a hard time. And Father Jiang also has a very expensive hobby, that is, he especially likes to collect items related to the first emperor.

There are also some antique shops in Xicheng, and Father Jiang always goes in to shop. If there is anything related to the first emperor, he will definitely spend money to buy it.

You must know that Father Jiang only earns about ten gold dollars a month, and any antiquities related to the first emperor, whether true or not, the price is not less than ten gold yuan.

"It's okay, it's okay. It's an investment. Let's eat less, as long as we find what I'm looking for, our father and son will be able to eat and drink spicy food in the future!" said Father Jiang after spending money again on a mirror that was said to have been used by the First Emperor.

Jiang Xiaoyu pouted: "Dad, there are only two days of rice left in the rice tank at our house." When we don't have money, we can only drink the northwest wind. ”

"There will be money, there will be money. Father Jiang smiled embarrassedly.

Just as the two of them were about to go home, Aunt Li, who had been away from here for several months, suddenly appeared, she knelt down in front of Jiang's father and shouted: "Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng! Please, for the sake of our old neighbors for many years, save my family's Dali and Yueyue!"

Aunt Li knelt on the cement pavement and knocked her head three times, and her forehead was already bleeding.
