"After Emperor Hui was defeated and self-immolated, King Yan won the world. Since then, our military households in the wrong position have become a thorn in the side of the Yongle Emperor, not only were they deprived of their military status and food, but the whole family was expelled from the homes where their ancestors had lived for generations, and they could only hide in the poor mountains and rivers outside the customs to survive...... In my life, Li Yan can't remember how many times I watched my siblings swallow their last breath in front of my own eyes because I couldn't eat a mouthful of food; I can't remember how many concubines and aunts, because there is no milk, they have to cut their wrists with a knife and feed blood to the children's mouths! ”

Seeing that Li Yan said emotionally, many Li family villagers also had red eyes.

It's just that the days outside this pass are too hard, even if they are like Lijia Village, who tie their lives to the belt of their trousers, go up the mountain to hunt in fear every day, and snatch food from the mouths of fierce beasts and poisonous snakes, it is just barely making a living.

Every time the snow is thick and the mountains are closed, which family does not have a doll who cries at night because of hunger?

However, just when the people around him were sighing and shaking their heads, there was a voice full of mockery and thought of it in a strange way: "Ao, dare to love your Guniuzhai because the mother-in-law and doll can't eat, so you have to go up the mountain and fall into the grass to kill people and set fire?" surnamed Li, your brother's life is life, isn't my father Dong Tianfang's life life? The dolls in your Guniuzhai can still drink blood to satisfy hunger, and the servants of my Dongjiazhuang who died under your butcher's knife have all turned into pieces of black charcoal! ”

As soon as I heard Dong Erzhu mention the tragedy of Dongjiazhuang being slaughtered 20 years ago, everyone present suddenly let out a "ahh

Seeing the resurgence of hostility on everyone's faces, Li Yan first muttered in a low voice in his throat, and then let out a sigh as if he had unloaded a heavy burden: "Yes, Brother Li Chang's case back then was indeed done by us in Guniuzhai. ”

As soon as these words fell, Dong Erzhu on the other side immediately sneered: "Listen, listen!" You Li Xuan is really a gangster! Obviously, you secretly poisoned Uncle Li and his party, and you still have the face to shout in public, big brother, I'm bah! ”

Dong Erzhu was talking, and suddenly puffed out his cheeks and tongue, and spat out a mouthful of white phlegm at Li Xuan.

When Li Yan saw the spit flying, he neither turned around to dodge, nor raised the quick axe in his hand to block, allowing the mouthful of phlegm to slap on his clothes.

I saw Li Yan looking at Dong Erzhu with a strange expression: "Lingzun Dong Tianfang's matter, Li really has nothing to say." If you want to avenge your father, you can directly ask Li to pay it back. However......"

Unexpectedly, as Li Yan spoke, his voice suddenly changed: "However, the honorable driver put Li Chang and their eleven lives on the head of my Guniuzhai, I am afraid that it will be unfair." I don't know if Zun Jia dares to swear to the gods of heaven and earth in the name of Ling Zun Dong Tianfang, saying that your Dong family has not had any other thoughts about Lijia Village before? ”

Without waiting for Dong Erzhu to speak, Li Juan laughed: "Your Dong family keeps telling people that this Bi Fang tail feather was sold for a sky-high price of 10,000 taels of silver...... Then why did I receive a red label of 15,000 taels of silver as long as I got the Bi Fang tail feather in Ling Zun's hand! ”

"What! Fifteen thousand!? ”

When he heard Li Xuan shouting the five words "fifteen thousand taels", the villagers of Lijia Village present immediately looked at Dong Erzhu, who wanted to speak in front of the crowd.

If this is true, then the Dong family is too much of a thing, knowing that Lijia Village killed and injured seven or eight young hunters because of the hunting of Bi Fang, leaving behind five or six widows and six or seven dolls waiting to be fed!

Your Dong family also reported the yin and yang accounts to our Lijia Village at this time, and deducted the dividends we deserved, that is, snatching food from the mouths of these orphans and widows and robbing them of the benefits they deserve, which is really too much!

Finding that the surrounding villagers were all looking at him with unkind expressions, Dong Erzhu turned his face stiff, and then snorted coldly: "It's just nonsense." What basis do you Li Xuan have, it is said that my Dong family reports yin and yang accounts to outsiders? I Dong Jiashao said that I have also dealt with Lijiacun for more than ten years...... Uncles, aunts, sisters-in-law, brothers and sisters, please discuss this reason, and see if my Dong family has ever sorted out these vain accounts in front of people before? ”

I have to say that Dong Erzhu is really a bit of a quick wit.

Since his father Dong Tianfang has been able to firmly control the mountain goods business in Lijia Village for ten years, the price given must be fair, and the price is higher than that of other mountain goods dealers.

When these words were shouted, no matter if anyone came forward to reason for him Dong Erzhu, those villagers who had received benefits from Dong Tianfang would remember the good children of the Dong family.

Sure enough, as soon as Dong Erzhu's words fell, several elderly villagers nodded their heads again and again.

Then these people withdrew their previously somewhat hostile gaze from Dong Erzhu, and turned their heads to look at Li Xuan again.

However, Li Yan smiled unhurriedly: "If there is no real evidence, Li will definitely not take the initiative to mention this matter." Dare to ask Brother Dong, since there is a second pillar in your name, I think it shouldn't be the eldest son of the Dong family, right? But I don't know if you recognize a person named Dong Dalang, brother? ”

As soon as he heard Li Yan take the initiative to mention Dong Dalang, Dong Erzhu's face turned white at first, and then he stiffened his neck: "It's just a concubine born to a girl, if it weren't for my father's whim that night, he drank a few more glasses; With his mother's willow posture, can he also enter my father's eyes? The surname is Li, this is my Dong family's private matter, what does it have to do with outsiders like you? ”

Before Dong Erzhu's words fell, Li Yan clapped his hands and laughed one after another: "Wonderful, leaving a concubine at home, but letting the concubine go out early in the morning to avoid trouble, Ling Zun's plan is really high." It's just that Brother Dong have you thought about it, no one in this world wants to be a fool who blocks arrows for others...... Your father and son are so calculating Dong Dalang, how can people be defenseless? ”

It turned out that just before Dong Tian was about to leave for Lijia Village to meet with Li Chang and his party, Dong Dalang, who was a concubine, also got a message from other subordinates early in the morning, and rushed to the gate respectfully, rushing to see off his father.

Although Dong Dalang knew that Dong Tianfang had always been very unkind to him, after all, he was his own father, and it was always right to serve him respectfully.

Maybe one day Dong Tianfang can remember his filial piety, and in the future, when dividing the family property, tilt it a little to this side, and it will be Amitabha.

However, Dong Dalang pounced at the door, and Dong Dalang, who vaguely sensed that something was wrong, turned his head and went to the back house to find his father.

I didn't want to take a few steps, Dong Dalang saw his father leading the younger brother out of the ear room where the miscellaneous items were piled up every day with a solemn face.
