If it weren't for the fact that in the winter of the year of Renzi, the Cantonese bandits from Guangdong broke Wuchang City, and the family suffered a catastrophe, not to mention being beaten as a pioneer, and his father was also hung in a station cage for three days to ask about the whereabouts of Yinjiao, for the seventeen-year-old Liang Yuqiu, he would definitely continue to live a luxurious life in Wuchang City with the group of literati and ink writers and the rich children in bright clothes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Humanity is "rich but three generations", but this fell on the Liang family, but not necessarily, not to say how shrewd the Liang family is, but because the Liang family has six generations of single transmission, naturally there are side branches and other families, and the family business has accumulated six generations, although it has not reached half of the city, but it is almost the same - the people of this half of the city need to buy rice from the Liang family, before the winter of the year of Renzi, the Liang family accounted for half of the nine hundred and eighty-one rice rows inside and outside the city, and the Liang family had two of the three rice boats on the Wuchang wharf.
If the family business is big, Liang Yuqiu, who is the only seedling in the family, lives a leisurely life, spending all day with a group of rich children, and by the way, making friends with a group of so-called literati and writers, it can be said that Liang Yuqiu has never been offended and has never suffered hardship.
However, although he is a child of a rich family, he has little cowardice on his body, and he has some wildness in the market. This is the characteristic of the children of the Liang family, and in this Wuchang City, it can also be regarded as a small and famous thing. He even made friends with some ruffians.
Originally, he should have married Miss Sun in the same city when he was 18 years old, but unexpectedly, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck. In the blink of an eye, all the wealth of the past has become a thing of the past. As tens of thousands of Cantonese bandits entered the city, the Liang family, which was famous for its vast lake, also came to a great disaster. The father died in the cage, and even the mother did not know the life and death, and the whereabouts were unknown, and the family property would be looted by the Taiping army, and even after the Cantonese bandits fled, they burned down the house that the Liang family had built for generations.
And the reason why Liang Yuqiu was able to escape that day was entirely because he had been staying in the fireworks alley, and his father handed over a bag of gold and silver to his personal bodyguard before the Taiping army entered the door, telling him to protect his son from flying away, no matter what, he also wanted to keep a wisp of blood of the Liang family. And the reason why he was able to escape from Wuchang was entirely because a few gangsters who had made friends with him helped him escape from Wuchang City with a momentary righteousness.
After leaving the city, Liang Yuqiu heard the bad news that his father was standing in the cage, and his soul was scattered and crumbling, only kneeling on the ground and crying wolf, beating his chest and feet. When he recovers, the six gods have no master, and he just wants to go back to the city and go to Huangquan with his parents.
Liang San, who was entrusted by the master, hugged him and persuaded him hard.
"Young master, young master, the old man told me to escape to help you save your life, you broke the jar like this, the old lady even if she was under the Nine Springs, and she couldn't close her eyes!"
Liang Yuqiu burst into tears, trembling like a hot comatose patient, gritting his teeth and yelling:
"Ahhh......h All dead, all dead...... Hong Yang two thieves, I don't share the sky with you...... Ahh......hh I'm Liang Yuqiu...... To be a ...... for parents Avenge the souls of your family! ”
This is the teenager's wild words, but it is also the motivation for the teenager to live.
And Liang San said bitterly on the side.
"Young master, as the saying goes, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood. Let's go to Changsha, the Liang family still has a semicolon in Changsha. ”
The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, this is the truth, although the Liang family's family business in Wuchang has been snatched up, but the Liang family still has a semicolon in Changsha and other places, although it is not as good as in the past, but as long as it is managed well, it can always ensure that Liang Yuqiu has no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.
When Liang Yuqiu heard this, his eyes widened, and he said loudly when his temper came up:
"That's not good, if you want to run for your life, we have to go back to Wuchang first, I have a friend who is now saying that he has rebelled, but he still remembers the original little incense, he will help me." Moreover, no matter how dangerous it is, I will go back to the city, kowtow to my dead parents, burn incense sticks, and leave Wuchang. ”
"Go back to the city at this time, young master, you don't want to die?"
Liang San was taken aback by the young master's idea.
And Liang Yuqiu said stubbornly.
"People are alive, when they return to the city, they can always come up with a way, and now those Cantonese bandits should rob almost one of them, and they have killed so many people, so they should seal the knife and calm the people."
"Okay, since the young master must go back to the city, then let's go back to the city......"
The two immediately bought clothes at a farmer's house, dressed up as peasants, and hurried back to the city. If there was a regret medicine in this world, Liang Yuqiu would never return to the city at that time, at least then, he would not kill Liang San, and even almost killed himself.
When Liang Yuqiu, who looked like a beggar, returned to Wuchang, he looked up at the banner floating on the ruined city wall, with the word "Han" written on it, which is now the so-called Han rebels in the land of Wuchang, Hanyang, and Huangzhou, which are more reassuring than the Cantonese bandits—at least they have never plundered the people, whether rich or poor, and treated each other fairly.
Looking at the dilapidated city wall, Liang Yuqiu couldn't help but think of his last experience of returning to Wuchang, when he stubbornly wanted to return to Wuchang, thinking that even if he slaughtered the city, he also had a sealed knife, but he never thought that those Cantonese bandits would finally leave Wuchang with the people of the whole city, and he and Liang San were also driven into the men's camp, so that in the end Liang San died tragically under the city of Jiangning, that is, it was only then that he found an opportunity to escape, begging all the way to Wuchang, people, there is a time when the catastrophe is encountered, Always hopes to return to the familiar environment, Liang Yuqiu is no exception, at this time he didn't even think about how to make a living after coming to Wuchang, at this time, all he thought about was one thought - to see what was left at home.
The former Zheng family's mansion had already been burned to a white ground in the burning fire, and even those broken walls would have been cleaned up for the most part—the neatly stacked bricks were probably picked up from the Zheng family's old house, and now most of the houses in the city are built with these old bricks.
This is the former rockery in the garden......
Being in the old house, thinking of the love of his parents, Liang Yuqiu was annoyed that he was not motivated in the old days, so that he was annoyed by his father and mother all day long, and at the same time, he was more immersed in the memories of his parents, but for a while, the tears were like rain.
He was in the city, and when he looked at it, except for some grass huts, there were almost no intact houses in this Wuchang city, is this still the Wuchang in his memory?
Yes, it was that Wuchang, which was burned down by Chang Dachun in the outer city, and burned to the inner city by the Cantonese bandits, and the two fires burned down the Wuchang City, which had been prosperous for hundreds of years.
Wuchang is finished......
Walking on the streets of Wuchang, Liang Yuqiu, who looks like a beggar, is not much different from the people around him, in fact, at this time, most of the people in Wuchang City escaped from the Cantonese bandit camp, when they fled back to Wuchang, they were all penniless, their wives were separated, and they were all like beggars.
Hungry!
In such a city, there is no way to beg for food, and no one will give alms, and the only thing that can make people half-full and not starve to death is the porridge factory in the city. The hungry Liang Yuqiu rubbed his belly while walking, occasionally smelling the fragrance of rice wafting in the air, he took two sips hard, and had the idea of swallowing the fragrance into his stomach, so he walked like this, he walked to the porridge factory, which was the porridge factory set up by the governor's mansion, and there was a long queue in front of the porridge factory.
"Line up, line up ......"
Qian Fakui, who was carrying a waist knife on his waist, would unceremoniously whip it up if he saw anyone cutting in line.
"Damn, say you ......"
Although these people's words and actions were tyrannical, Liang Yuqiu still noticed that if they hadn't maintained order there, I don't know what the chaos would have been in front of this porridge factory.
"The big guys don't have to squeeze it, the porridge of the Dadu Dushi is enough for the big guys to eat......"
While beating with sticks, and at the same time comforting with words, there was no chaos in front of this porridge factory, and it was at this time that Liang Yuqiu noticed that whenever those volunteers saw the young man, they would always walk over and seem to ask something. Occasionally, some teenagers would leave the group with the volunteers.
Where are they going?
Looking at the departing teenagers, Liang Yuqiu thought with some doubts, just thinking about it like this, but he heard a voice next to him.
"Hey, little brother, how old are you?"
