The landscape is dictated, and the sister-in-law is sorted out

It's a quarrel, but it's not a quarrel.

Because the word quarrel has a premise, it will only occur when the strength of the two parties involved is almost the same.

For example, the former Tang royal family and the family could quarrel with each other, both sides had the strength to overturn the table, as long as they were unhappy, they could stare and get angry, and it was precisely because they both knew that the other party had the ability to lift the table, so they had to take into account that each other would really be annoyed and angry and turn the table, so they would use words to fight, which was a kind of quarrel.

Another example is the adjacency between the countryside, the two families live in a courtyard wall to build a house, no one is stronger than the other, the strength is basically the same, once the two families are estranged, they will quarrel with each other, and it is likely that the more noisy they are, the more noisy they feel, the more angry they feel, and even the whole village can not persuade them to fight, and the development may become a brawl between the two families.

But if one of the families is allowed to face the richest family in the village, the family will inevitably stop and hold their tails and behave, not to mention that it will develop to the point of fighting, and even the initial bickering may not have the courage.

Why?

Therefore, the strength of each other does not match.

The premise of the quarrel must at least be equal. Otherwise, if you let a teenage child quarrel with a 30-year-old strong man, I'm afraid that a crying dad with a big ear scraper will call his mother directly.

Therefore, Li Yun's seventh apprentice's family is not arguing with people at all, and it can be described as 'being bullied'.

This family is too sad, basically at the bottom of the Tang Dynasty, the man is obviously full of talent, but the future is ruined by the family, the woman adheres to the traditional virtues, but unfortunately tuberculosis has been weak for many years, the little girl Hong'er is filial and sensible, hungry skin and bones, yellow muscles and thin muscles.

Despite this, the family still sticks to their duty, even if the child catches the night bird with filial piety, and after catching it, he will be reprimanded and taught by his father.

Knowledgeable and cautious, the hardships of life have smoothed the edges and corners of this family, and they have no heart and dare not have the heart to quarrel with others.

It's a pity that people are bullied.

This family lives cautiously, honestly and honestly maintains their duties, they dare not provoke others, but they do not prevent others from oppressing them.

That's what happened just now......

At that time, it was not long after Li Yun and Qi Yanran said goodbye, the middle-aged man was confused under the prompting of his wife, and the little girl Hong'er was happily holding the dead bird and happily sitting on the side of the road to pluck feathers.

Don't look at the little girl's age, but the poverty since childhood made her self-reliant early, her little hands are very light and neat, and after a while the bird's feathers will be cleaned up, and then happily run into the mountains and forests, find a spring to clean the big bird.

When he returned, the little one did not ask his father for help, but neatly picked up some firewood and started a small fire by the side of the road.

All this work is done by her alone, and the middle-aged man has been taking care of his wife, and the husband and wife are very relieved about their daughter's work, which also highlights the little girl's well-behaved from the side.

The fire was rising, and the big bird was yellowing, and soon a fragrance spread out, and the grease dripped on the fire with a soft sound.

The little girl was obviously very greedy, poking her little head to smell the fragrance from time to time, and she would occasionally try to swallow a mouthful of saliva, and her little face was full of joy.

Finally, the birds are cooked!

The little girl carefully drew out the stick of the roast bird, and then waved it vigorously in the air, she wanted to use this method to make the bird's meat cool quickly, and then take it to her frail and long-sick mother to eat.

However, at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of a car and horse not far away, and then there seemed to be a startled 'huh', as if he was twitching his nose and smelling the fragrance.

Soon I saw several horse-drawn carriages appear, slowly galloping along the road, these carriages were loaded with many sacks, and a group of strong men were guarding the side of the carriage.

The leaders were dressed in brocade, with a young man in the middle, and beside him was a middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe.

The person who made the startled 'huh' sound just now was this middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe.

But seeing that he kept sniffing in the air with his nose, he soon traced the source of the fragrance, and at this time Hong'er was giggling with the big roasted bird, and the little one was going to take the bird meat to his mother to eat.

It's a pity that she didn't wait for her to run to her mother's side, and suddenly someone stopped her way in front of her, it turned out to be a carriage guard who found that his own leader was very interested in the little girl's roast bird, and there was no shortage of people in the world who tended to be inflammatory, and the guards rushed to block Hong'er's way.

And Hong'er ran too fast, and didn't check for a while and bumped into the guard, where could her small body hit the guard, and suddenly fell to the ground.

"Hahahaha!"

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd in the carriage, as if it was amusing to see a child fall.

The guard who blocked the way was very proud, and looked at his own leader with a flattering face, and sure enough, he saw the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes nodding lightly, as if he praised his behavior.

The guard's face was even more flattering.

It's a pity that the middle-aged man no longer looked at him, but stretched out his finger and pointed to Hong'er who fell to the ground, turned his head to the young man and said: "The second son is really worthy of being a blessed person, and there are people in the wilderness who pay tribute to the food, although this bird is inferior in baking techniques, it is better than a little game in the mountains, it just happened that the second son just said that he was slightly hungry, so it is better to take this game to eat it." ”

This remark was an understatement, and he didn't ask Hong'er if she wanted to do it before she spoke, as if everything was taken for granted, and her tone seemed to be determined.

And the young man had a faint face, and he really nodded "reluctantly" and said, "Then let's take it and taste it." ”

After saying this, the guard blocking the road suddenly stretched out his big hand, and poor Hong'er fell to the ground before she got up, and the roasted big bird had been taken away.

After the guard took the big bird, he ran to the young man with a roar on his face, and then bowed down and slumped down with a flattering face, and whispered flattery: "Son, the heat of this roast bird meat is just right." ”

The young man glanced at him, nodded lightly, and said, "Zheng Si, you are very good." ”

The guard's face was full of surprise.

The middle-aged man in fancy clothes next to him heard the young man praising the guard, and he also said lightly on the side: "Zheng Si is a son of the family, but he can be more courageous in the future, and after the second son builds a mansion and settles down, how about the old man transfer him to the second son's house?" ”

The young man was noncommittal, stretched out his hand to take the roast bird in his hand, he slowly tore off a piece of bird meat and chewed it gently at the end, and then said lightly: "My son does not want to build a mansion for the time being, I want to stay in the clan and fight with them......"

This is headless and brainless, but the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes has a bright face, and hurriedly said: "The second son, you are also a descendant, and you have been loved by the old patriarch since childhood, if the second son is really ambitious, there are eight or nine points possible to say this." ”

The young man nodded arrogantly and said, "This is also the reason why this son has worked tirelessly to ask for an errand, otherwise who would be willing to travel thousands of miles to escort the grain ......"

He didn't say the rest of the words, but the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes helped him add a sentence: "It's just a matter of escorting food, but we have to continue to give alms to the poor along the road. Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that the situation was stronger than people, the old man really wanted to persuade the clan elders to stop this matter. Let's be dignified Xingyang Zheng's family, and four million stone grains were given away for nothing! ”

He snorted again as he said it, and a look of extreme dissatisfaction appeared on his face.

On the contrary, although the young man was arrogant, when he heard this, he slowly shook his head and said: "You also said just now that the form is stronger than people, since it is weak, you have to admit it, the things in the world, there are high and low, even if it is a wealthy family for thousands of years, there are also low days, four million stone grain is only, why not give it all away?" As long as you can continue to be among the gate valves, there will always be a time to get back what you have lost. ”

The middle-aged man in Huafu hurriedly gave a thumbs up and praised urgently: "Sure enough, it is worthy of being a concubine, and the second son is atmospheric when he speaks." ”

The young man glanced at him with a smile, and suddenly pointed out: "You are also a member of the Zheng family, and you are still my clan uncle according to your seniority, so you can't do this in the future, so as not to be despised." ”

The middle-aged man in Huafu was a little sneering, and said to him: "I was born in the Zheng branch, and it is also an extremely remote branch, it is not because I have been loyal to work all these years, how can I have my place in the family, I was sincere just now, and I did not deliberately flatter the son." ”

The corners of the young man's mouth hooked, showing a little disdain, he no longer insisted on being middle-aged in fancy clothes, and suddenly turned his head to look at the guard and said: "If you take other people's game, you have to give people a little compensation, you go and unload a sack of grain and give it to this little girl who roasts birds." ”

The guard was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously said, "A sack of grain? Then he whispered, "Old grain or new grain, coarse grain or fine grain?" ”

The young man tore off another piece of bird meat and put it in his mouth, and slowly began to chew it gently, without any answer, without any hint.

When the guard saw this, he suddenly realized that he shouldn't have asked more questions just now, and sweat beads suddenly appeared on his face, and he ran to the carriage to unload the grain in a panic.

He specially picked for a long time, and finally chose a slightly old sack, and then ran back with his own carry, and threw it to the side of the road with a pop.

At this time, Hong'er had already gotten up from the ground, and the little girl was robbed of bird meat and didn't dare to resist at all, she was afraid that her resistance would cause trouble to the family, so she could only retreat to her parents carefully.

The middle-aged man and his wife were also nervous, and the husband and wife were stingy to protect their daughter.

Obviously, someone else took their things, but they were very nervous with a restrained face, for fear of causing trouble, so they swallowed their anger and endured it.

This is bent over by a long life of suffering, and he no longer dares to have any idea of fighting for self-esteem, maybe the middle-aged man used to be a person who dared to fight, but now he has to take care of his sick and weak wife and weak daughter.

A man's choice to show weakness is a kind of sadness in itself, maybe he is not weak, but he has to work hard to make himself weak for the sake of his wife and children.

Because he didn't dare to fight, because the result of the fight was likely to hurt his wife and children.

This is a man's saddest helplessness, but it is the greatest choice for a husband and father.

But said that the guard carried the food and threw it directly to the ground, and then looked at the family condescendingly, suddenly snorted heavily, and deliberately said loudly: "See clearly, this is food, my son is the descendant of the Zheng family in Xingyang, and he has worked tirelessly to escort the food, give alms to the poor, and help the suffering, originally according to the regulations, your family can only receive five catties of rations, if you want to receive it again, you can only wait until three days later, but the son is kind-hearted, and specially gave you a bag of food, although the birds roasted by your little girl are good, But it's not as good as my son-in-law's brocade clothes and jade food, remember, this grain is given by my son, and the roast bird is provided by you, we don't have a deal, you don't deserve to trade, understand? ”

is worthy of being a wealthy slave, he spoke without leakage, he deliberately said it loudly, obviously with the intention of currying favor with his son-in-law, but unfortunately the son-in-law said softly, and seemed to feel that the guards were a little troublesome.

The guard suddenly became nervous, feeling that he had made a mistake again, he didn't dare to complain about his son-in-law, but he took his anger out on Hong'er's family, and suddenly glared at the family viciously, and said in a low voice: "When the night is off, Lao Tzu wants your family to look good......"

Hong'er's little face turned white, and she subconsciously protected her mother, and the middle-aged man's eyes were angry, and he finally raised his head at this moment.

He had always been cautious, and even did not dare to speak when his daughter's roast bird was taken away, but at this time, listening to the threat of the guard, the man raised his head and straightened his waist.

He didn't say anything to the guards, but said with a sad and indignant face: "We are trekking with His Majesty's convoy, and Your Excellency is going to commit murder under the emperor's eyes." ”

This can be regarded as a kind of struggle of the weak, and he wants to use Li Shimin's prestige to deter the guards in front of him.

The guards suddenly sneered, and said with disdain: "There are not 100,000 but 80,000 people on the trek, how does His Majesty the Emperor know what you are?" ”

This is obviously without scruples, and it is determined that the main thing is to bully the Hong'er family.

The middle-aged man's face became even more sad and angry, he stretched out his hand to protect his wife and children behind him, he stared at the middle-aged guard with his eyes, and finally said the language that a man should have, and said: "If you dare to come tonight, I will fight with you, and those who oppress my wife and daughter, and the contemptible person will bite you a piece of flesh even if he dies." ”

"Really? Then I'll just hack you to death! The guard still whispered, as if he was afraid of being heard by his own son.

In fact, although he was possessed and whispered, the hideousness on his face couldn't escape others, and the sons and middle-aged people in fancy clothes over there all looked at it in their eyes, but it was a pity that neither the young man nor the middle-aged man in fancy clothes stopped drinking.

In the eyes of the wealthy family, the people are definitely not as good as their own dogs.

said that after the guards finished threatening, they were finally ready to return to the carriage, while Hong'er's family was full of misery, and the middle-aged man clenched his hands into fists.

But he quickly loosened his fist again, and let out a gloomy sigh in his mouth, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the bag of grain, turned his head and pretended to be relaxed and happy, and said to his wife: "With this bag of grain, we don't have to worry about starvation......

As he spoke, he looked at Hong'er again, and said softly: "Girl, you have to protect your mother, take care of this bag of grain, and remember to cook for your mother every morning and evening." ”

Although he deliberately pretended to be relaxed, his words still revealed his intentions, and these words clearly contained the meaning of parting, obviously he had made up his mind to fight with the guards tonight.

It's a pity that although Hong'er is smart, she can't hear the abnormality in her father's words due to her age, and Hong'er's mother, although she hears the abnormality, is afraid that she will worry her daughter if she says it.

The husband and wife could only glance at each other quietly, with a deep reluctance and sadness flashing in their eyes.

If people live too lowly, even resistance will seem helpless.

It's a pity that their family has suffered so much, and the world still refuses to let them go, just when Hong'er's father is reluctant, he suddenly heard someone on the other side whispering.

It was the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes who spoke, but when he suddenly raised his feet and walked over, this guy stared at Hong'er's father up and down for a long time, and suddenly laughed and said: "Bao Youyuan, it's you, I heard that you fell into the streets of Chang'an, doing the business of inquiring about news and selling tongues, you are quite famous, and you are called Mr. Bao, why are you not in Chang'an, could it be that you want to go to Guanwai to try?" ”

After speaking, without waiting for Hong'er's father to answer, the middle-aged man in Huafu suddenly turned his head to look at the young man, laughed and said: "Second son, the food you gave must be taken back, this person's name is Bao Youyuan, and he is a famous person in our Xingyang Zheng family......"

The young man was slightly stunned, and said with a slight astonishment: "He is actually qualified to be named in the clan?" ”

I don't believe it.

The middle-aged man in Huafu laughed, and said with disdain: "It is indeed famous, but unfortunately it is a bad name, this person was so bold and arrogant that he voted for one volume or two votes, he not only voted for our Xingyang Zheng family, but also voted for Qinghe Cui family, this is a big disrespectful crime, how can Zheng and Cui make him feel better." ”

Only then did the young man understand, and his gaze at Hong'er's family suddenly became displeased, and he said lightly: "I see." ”

The middle-aged man in a gorgeous costume suddenly waved at the guard, and scolded loudly: "Zheng Si, you are stupid, what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and take this bag of grain back." Although our son-in-law is kind-hearted, how can the food of the Zheng family in Xingyang be given to Bao Youyuan, he should starve in his life, this is the punishment for his disrespectful sin. ”

The guard, Zheng Si, was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly ran over to get food.

This time, I finally touched the bottom line of Hong'er's family.

We swallow our anger, you refuse to let go, the reason why we dare not resist is because we want to live humblely, but now, you have to take the food back.

It's just a matter of getting the food back, and we'll continue to grit our teeth and trek forward, but your guards will come tonight.

This is not a way to live.

If the food is not taken back, Bao Youyuan originally planned to sacrifice himself to save his wife and daughter, but now the sacrifice is useless, and their family is doomed to be desolate.

Once an honest person is cornered, it is also scary to launch a ruthless attack.

But seeing Bao Youyuan roaring violently, he suddenly stretched out his hand to protect the guard Zheng Si, the scholar was powerless, he opened his mouth and bit Zheng Si's arm fiercely.

This bite clearly uses the strength of the whole body.

At the same time, Hong'er also pounced on the other side, and shouted angrily: "You bad person, you bully our family." ”

The little girl also opened her mouth fiercely and bit on the arm of the guard Zheng Si.

The father and daughter chose to bite Zheng Si's arm, in fact, it was a subconscious misery and helplessness, only because Zheng Si grabbed food with both hands, they would subconsciously bite their arms.

It seems that after biting the arm, the food can be saved.

This is the pity of the poor.

It's a pity that their father and daughter can't be a fierce opponent, that Zheng Si was bitten and suffered a lot of pain, and suddenly his face showed a murderous color, and he gritted his teeth and scolded: "Go die." ”

With a wave of his left arm, he directly knocked the little girl away, followed with a shake of his right arm, and knocked Bao Youyuan to the ground, and then raised his hand high and slapped Bao Youyuan viciously.

"If you dare to beat my father, I will bite you to death......"

Hong'er pounced back after being knocked away, and her little face was angry and wanted to bite Zheng Si again.

Zheng Si laughed, suddenly raised his foot and kicked, only to hear a bang, Hong'er was kicked down.

Due to the excessive force, Hong'er rolled on the ground continuously, and spurted out a mouthful of blood with a cry of ura in her mouth.

Zheng Si kicked Hong'er and didn't understand his hatred, big foot
