Chapter 207: There is a second flute at the head of the village (4)

Erhu's father felt that he was harmed by the ancestral training who read, because he had been studying since he was a child, and now he can't do anything but study.

At the same time, it finally made Erhu's grandmother clear that he was hopeless in studying, and finally the family decided to sell all the cabinets of books at home and come back with some fields.

You know, in this day and age, these books are very valuable.

Erhu's father pulled the whole cabinet of books to the pawn shop, sold nearly two hundred taels of silver, and was overjoyed, so when he got home, he planned to pick up the cabinet containing the books and build a big wardrobe for Erhu's grandmother.

I didn't think about it, but at the bottom of this bookcase, I found a few more packets of books wrapped in oiled paper.

The second tiger father was puzzled, thinking that this cabinet had not been touched for so many generations, and no one found that there were so many packages hidden underground, and these packages were so carefully wrapped in oiled paper, and even treated with insects, which shows that these books should be worth some money!

Thinking of this, the second tiger father took a half-old yellowed book from many books, and planned to go to the pawnshop to estimate the price first.

However, what he did not expect to bring trouble to them was these books.

These books were left by the great official of his ancestors, and when the official resigned from Beijing and left, he only took a small box of books with him, except for some rewards.

When the official returned to his hometown, he carefully wrapped these books in oiled paper and placed them at the bottom of the bookshelf, intending to tell the juniors about these books when the time was ripe.

However, as soon as these books were placed, the official fell ill and left only one sentence: "You must read books when you have a child!" The metaphor passed away.

But this sentence has been misinterpreted, with several generations down, the descendants of the family are in their own family, receiving the teaching of the elders to read to death, guarding the books to live, I don't know that tea, rice, oil and salt are expensive, and no one found that the oil paper under the cabinet is wrapped in books.

When the second tiger father took the book to the pawnshop, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop happened to be present, took the book and flipped it over, and was immediately shocked, this is the only book hundreds of years ago!

This book alone can change the street.

The shopkeeper respectfully returned the book to Erhu's father, and told him that he still needed to invite someone to palm the palm of his eyes to price the book.

After that, the shopkeeper asked where the second tiger father lived.

The second tiger father found out that there was something wrong with the matter as early as when the shopkeeper changed his face, so he deliberately reported a fake address.

Then the second tiger father tightly rolled the book into his arms and left in a hurry.

However, he didn't notice that behind him, two figures coming out of the back door of the pawnshop were sneakily following him.

That night, several people from the rivers and lakes rushed into Erhu's father's house and snatched all the remaining books in his house and the money he had sold before.

The father of the second tiger tried his best to resist, but he was killed by a knife, and then these people in the rivers and lakes simply did not stop and killed the grandmother of the second tiger.

Before Erhu Niang saw a group of people rushing into the house viciously, she was very scared, and rushed into the house with a bump, and immediately stuffed Erhu into the kang hole under the wardrobe, and told him: "Huzi plays with his mother, his mother laughs, Huzi is silent, whoever makes a voice loses." "It's a game they play every day.

Seeing Erhu nodded, Erhu Niang put the box containing clothes back in place with a smile, and then closed the door and lay on the bed to pretend to sleep.

Erhu only heard two screams outside, and was about to move, but saw his mother laughing even happier, as if he was holding the chance to win.

When Erhu saw his mother smiling, he hurriedly stopped moving, so he didn't want to be fooled, he didn't want to lose.

Hearing the sound of ping-pong turning things and slamming the door outside, Erhu closed his eyes in a daze and fell asleep, only to vaguely hear someone shouting: "Big brother, there is another person in this house!" ”

When he opened his eyes again, it was already dawn outside, and the oil lamp on the table had already burned out.

However, the mother's face was blue, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be red, which made Erhu a little scared.

Erhu rubbed his stomach, wanting to admit defeat with his mother, it's not fun, he doesn't want to play anymore, he's hungry, he wants to eat!

Two days later, the second tiger was picked up from the kang hole.

His family was gone, and his father and grandmother were beheaded with knives.

His mother was stabbed with two swords and four swords, and these scars pierced her body.

The men threw her to the ground, but she struggled to climb back onto the kang and pulled a long trail of blood on the ground.

Erhu Niang was afraid that Erhu would want to run out if she couldn't see her smile, and she wanted to protect her child.

Erhu became an orphan overnight, and he just sat in front of his house every day and waited for his family to come back, looking even more stupid than before.

The villagers discussed it and decided to let Erhu donate his family's house to the clan, and the clan would support him until he died.

Then he built two thatched houses on the mountainside at the head of the village, and asked him to keep vigil for the village and change some daily necessities.

In this way, Erhu himself lived stupidly to the age of thirteen.

Since Erhu has almost no money in his hands, he will go to different places every day to pick up things that others don't want and come back, and everyone in the village knows about him, and sometimes he will take the initiative to give him some things that he doesn't use at home.

After all, in this year, no one is rich, this is already their greatest kindness.

It wasn't until that day that Erhu came back with Ah Xiang on his back that he blew up in the crowd.

It turned out that the reason why Erhu saved Ah Xiang was: when he was rummaging through things in the garbage heap, Ah Xiang next to him was in a trance, thinking that he had seen the soul messenger, and subconsciously smiled at Erhu.

Erhu was stunned for a while by Ah Xiang's smile, because his mother laughed like this, so he carried Ah Xiang back without saying a word.

Ah Xiang also had a big fate, and actually survived strongly under the careless care of the second tiger.

But Ah Xiang had to admit that the time spent with Erhu was the easiest day in her life.

The two of them stumbled over a year.

Although Ah Xiang's face is ruined, her hands are really skillful, and she embroiders a sachet for Erhu to take out for money, although she is bargained, but it can also make two people live without worry.

In her spare time, Ah Xiang will also sing a little song and paint a picture to Erhu.

Whenever she painted, Erhu imitated it on the ground with a wooden stick on the side.

Ah Xiang was in the building at the beginning, and he also worked hard to be an oiran, although he was always criticized by the master for not having spirituality, but his eyesight was still not lacking at all.

Gradually, Ah Xiang discovered that Erhu was actually very talented in painting.
