Qi Jiguang was widely praised by later generations for fighting against the Japanese invaders, and his image in later generations was very high. For such a cow, Qin Li was naturally very willing to make friends, so he agreed to go to the village with Qi Jiguang to ask for a bowl of water to drink.

After a short walk along the mountain path, you turned a corner and there was a small village in front of you.

The small village is surrounded by greenery, and it is noon, and the smoke curls from the cooking, and the village looks quiet and peaceful from a distance. But when Qin Li entered the village, he found that there were only a dozen families here, and the stone houses had been washed away by the rain for many years, and they were very dilapidated. Several courtyards have apparently been uninhabited for a long time, and have collapsed.

Occasionally, one or two old men came out of the courtyard, all of them skinny, shabby, and patched.

It's a very run-down, very poor little village.

Qi Jiguang led the horse in front, and the two strong men followed closely behind, greeting the old men on the street from time to time, but they did not have the slightest arrogance, as if they were very sensible and docile.

Those old men also smiled at the two strong men, very polite. On the contrary, he was indifferent to Qi Jiguang's face, and occasionally glared at him fiercely.

A group of several people stopped in front of a small courtyard, and the two strong men had already rushed to the front and shouted, "Dad! Mother, we're back! ”

Qin Li knew that these two strong men were brothers, and asked Qi Jiguang in a low voice, and learned that the taller one was called Da Hei, and the other one was called Er Hei.

The first thing that came out of the dilapidated house was not their father and mother, but two black and bare-chested children.

The two children are almost the same size, both are four or five years old, and in addition to being black, they also have a common characteristic, that is, they are thin. It's skinny.

Seeing these two thin black children, Qin Li immediately thought of the pictures of hungry children in poor areas of Africa on the Internet in later generations.

"Dad, I want something delicious." The two little black children threw themselves into Big Black's arms almost at the same time. Da Hei grabbed one in one hand, kissed one on this face, and kissed that one, very loving.

"Dad didn't make any money today. I don't have the money to buy you something to eat. Big Black snorted.

"Daddy lied to us, Daddy lied to us, Daddy said that we could make money today, and uncle, you also said that we could make money, what about delicious food?"

The two children swallowed saliva and broke free from Da Hei's arms, and ran to Erhei's feet. Erhei hurriedly squatted down, looking embarrassed, and said. "Uncle will definitely buy you something delicious tomorrow, mutton pie, it's delicious!"

"Uncle bad! Uncle is also a liar! The two children were probably so hungry that they slapped Erhei on the head.

Erhei said bitterly, "Uncle should fight, uncle should fight!" He stretched out his big hand and pounded it on his head.

Qi Jiguang looked at it blankly, but he couldn't do anything.

Qin Li and the others had already seen the scene in front of them clearly, and Qin Li's tears almost fell. Bitter! The people of this village are really miserable. In the past, Yangzhou did not realize the hardships of the lives of the people in these poor areas. I finally saw you today. Seeing them, Qin Li suddenly felt that he was a very useless person. Very selfish people.

I always want to have a beautiful wife and concubine, and live a life of glory and wealth, but what about them? People are equal to each other, why do some people have to be starved to death?

immediately thought of Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao, and Qin Li's impression of Zhu Houzhao has always been good. Although Zhu Houzhao is not engaged in political affairs. But he is a person who values love and righteousness. He's just a normal young man, a normal person who always pursues fun and excitement.

But it turns out that it is not possible for a normal person to be an emperor. It is precisely because of Zhu Houzhao's unprofessionalism that there is this scene in front of him that makes people cry in tears.

Zhu Houzhao's servant Jiang Bin is even more hateful. Maybe without Jiang Bin's instigation and flattery, Daming would not have such a situation.

Qin Li untied the package on the horse, silently walked to Da Hei's side and handed the package to them. Inside the package is the food brought by Qin Lixinglu, including rice cakes, steamed buns, and pies.

When the two little ones saw so much good food at first glance, their little eyes immediately sparkled, and they reached out and grabbed a lot of them, and hugged them full. Each of them opened their mouths to bite into a pie while twisting their little buttocks and running towards the house.

Immediately, a surprised children's voice came from the house, "Grandma, grandpa, there is something to eat, there are so many delicious things." You eat! ”

Da Hei and Er Hei threw a grateful glance at Qin Li, and Qin Li found that the big eyes of the two of them were clearly full of glittering tears.

The man didn't flick when he had tears, just a bite of food, which made these two burly men cry.

Qi Jiguang turned his head and smiled bitterly at Qin Li, and said, "Boss Qin, this village is called Yiyi Village, and the village is poor. Don't look at how many of them are making lunch now, you haven't seen them eat, it's all gruel made of tree bark! That's why I stayed here to help them live a good life. ”

I'll it! Help them live a good life and go to rob the road? This is a shortcut, but you must also know that this is a violation of the laws of the Ming Dynasty and is always ready to lose your head.

This Qi Jiguang turned out to be such a quality.

Qin Li was a little speechless.

An old man hunched over and with a wrinkled face walked out of the room, he opened his dim old eyes and looked at his two sons first, and then at Qin Li and the others. Suddenly, the face was blank, and the old voice sounded, "You two ignorant things, don't thank these young masters quickly!" ”

He was obviously referring to Qin Li and his eleven special forces.

Although the old man's voice is weak, it has a great majesty towards Da Hei and Erhei. They didn't dare to disobey, so they hurriedly turned around and knelt down and kowtowed to Qin Li and the others. Qin Li hurriedly helped them up and said, "Isn't it just a little bit of food?" What's in it? You're welcome! ”

The old man staggered up to Qin Li and said, "Young man, food and clothing are also parents." If it weren't for the food you gave me today, I'm afraid my old wife wouldn't be able to survive today! Alas! It's a bitter day! My good daughter-in-law died half a year ago because she couldn't stand starvation. ”

Qin Li's heart was sour when the old man said it. But Qin Li didn't know what to say, and he didn't know where to comfort the octogenarian.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "The old man's house is narrow and messy, and the old wife is lying sick in bed and urinating on the kang. I don't dare to invite the heroes to rest in the house, the big black and the two black, why don't you go to the middle of the house to serve the little heroes. ”

The old man then glanced at Qi Jiguang and walked back to the house, maybe he was also in a hurry to eat the food that Qin Li brought them.

Qin Li found that there was a clear disdain and resentment in the old man's eyes when he looked at Qi Jiguang. Qin Li couldn't help but wonder.

Da Hei and Erhei did not dare to slack off, hurried into the house, and quickly moved out a four-legged square table, on which several large bowls were placed, and water was poured into each bowl.

The sun was blazing, and after half a day's journey, everyone's throats were smoking. The eleven young special forces were not polite, and hurriedly stepped forward to make a cow drink.

Qin Li was also thirsty now, but he just picked up the bowl and forcibly drank two small sips, then gently put down the bowl.

If the bowl is too dirty, it is oily. I really don't know how this family spends their lives. Is it true that people are poor and water is poor? Can't you just wash the dishes well?

Qi Jiguang saw the difference, and said with a wry smile, "Boss Qin may not know that the lack of water in this place is all because of the younger brother!" Alas! Speaking of which, the little brother really can't stand the people of this village! (To be continued.) )
