For several days in a row, there was no movement in Lao Zhang's house.

Without those people at home, the food of Lao Zhang's family has returned to its original state, and there is no meat for three meals, let alone wine.

During this time, the second child of the Zhang family was hungry, and he had no meat to eat, and occasionally he would go out and secretly drink a few glasses.

Xue had already hidden some good wine in the house, and in the dead of night, he drank a few sips of peanuts and rice, so that he could warm his body in the cold winter.

"Old man, you are gone, how lonely it is to leave the old woman alone. The six and seventh, those two unconscionable things, haven't sent a letter to their families until now, and now that they are officials in Yucheng, they really forget about me as a mother. Hehe......" She cried as she spoke, crying until she was tired and fell asleep on the quilt.

Outside the window, the second child of the Zhang family smelled the aroma of wine and went to the window, and wanted to rush in to ask his mother for a glass of wine, but when he heard his mother say such sensational words, his eyes turned red.

Wiping his tears, he choked up and scolded in a low voice: "You two bastards, you have the ability to never step into Lao Zhang's house again for the rest of your life." ”

……

Yawn! Yawn!

One night, the sixth and seventh children of the Zhang family were sneezing, and the two brothers were busy with their business, and they would be eating snacks and drinking fine wine in the house.

"It's colder than my hometown, brother, it's almost the New Year, are we going back?" The seventh member of the Zhang family rubbed his nose and took a sip uncomfortably.

The sixth child of the Zhang family shook the cup, a little helplessness flashed in his eyes, the cup was placed on the table, and he looked at the seventh child with a sigh of breath.

Lao Qi also put down the cup, lowered his head and said: "Dad is gone, my mother is so old." The second brother is like that, if we don't go back for the New Year, my mother will definitely be very sad. ”

"Do you think I can go now?" The sixth threw the question to the seventh.

Lao Qi was dumbfounded by this question, although he can't be an official in the court, but he is also helping the sixth brother to do things, and now the situation in the court, the top can't take advantage of it at all, and it is also the time when you need to employ people, if the sixth brother leaves at this time, I'm afraid?

"Sometimes loyalty and filial piety can't be both, our career has just begun, but we can't ruin what we have finally gotten because of our children's personal affairs." The sixth patted the seventh on the shoulder, if you have a foothold, you can't be ruthless.

However, this does not mean that he intends to leave the old lady alone, sighing and saying helplessly: "It's really not good, you go back, bring some silver to your mother, and bring some food back." However, let's say it first, you must not cause trouble, especially Zhang Xiaoyan and them. ”

I haven't heard this name for a while, and Lao Qi has almost forgotten those things before, and now when he mentions it, he still has a lot of anger in his heart.

Seeing that the sixth child saw the seventh child's face, anger immediately appeared, and he scolded viciously: "Looking at your state, how can you let me rest assured that you will go back alone?" If you don't know how to collect emotions, sooner or later you will be planted in your own hands. ”

Syllable!

Lao Qiyi slapped on the table and vented the anger in his heart: "I just can't swallow this breath, what's so good about that little cheap hoof?" Xiao Fang wants to help her like that! ”

"Then I don't know." The sixth said gloomily, and a vicious light crossed his eyes.

glanced at Lao Qi, he also received some rumors about some things, but he didn't tell Lao Qi, this kid is still so calm.

Lao Qi slowly sat down, poured a full glass of wine, and raised his head to finish drinking. secretly glanced at the sixth brother, and told himself in his heart that one day in the future, Zhang Xiaoyan, a cheap hoof, would not die well!

……

As soon as the sky was bright, Zhang Xiaoyan and the three of them went up the mountain with a basket on their backs. There is already frost on the mountain, and the further you go up the mountain, the more white it becomes, and it makes people feel colder and colder.

WhewW......

Zhao Si ran in place, rubbing his hands together and still feeling a little cold.

"You're not sick, are you? I can't stand this cold, do you still need to go up the mountain when it's cold? The fat girl glanced at Zhao Si with disdain.

Zhao Si pursed his mouth aggrievedly and looked at Zhang Xiaoyan wrongedly.

Zhang Xiaoyan deliberately didn't speak, and after waiting for a while, Zhao Si was a little breathless, and actually shook Zhang Xiaoyan's arm and sprinkled coquettishly: "My eldest lady, can you explain it to me?" I'm not as vain as she says I am. ”

The fat girl looked at Zhang Xiaoyan puzzled, and Zhang Xiaoyan had to open her mouth: "I got a medicine out last night and let him try it, but I didn't expect the sequelae to be so big, and it still makes him feel cold." ”

"What's that good thing?" The fat girl is obviously more interested in medicine, and as for Zhao Si being wronged, the matter has been thrown out of the clouds.

"That's a good thing, that medicine ......" Zhang Xiaoyan crackled and said a lot to the fat girl, and directly squeezed Zhao Si, who was standing in the middle, behind him.

Zhao Si turned into a bitter gourd face, watching the two of them go farther and farther, he could only trot after them. After running a few steps, he heard a voice from the place on the left, and motioned for the two to find a place to hide first.

In the grass not far away, the sound of a murmur came from a creeping reptile that did not look like a human, but like some kind of cartilaginous reptile. Hearing this, the fat girl got goosebumps.

Suddenly, a huge head spun out of the grass. At this time, the sky was already dawning, and what caught everyone's eyes was a snake with a green head, the head of the snake was as big as a child's head, and the fat girl opened her mouth wide in fright.

I'll it!

The first time I saw such a big guy on this mountain, it was still green.

Zhang Xiaoyan is trying to restrain the fear rising in her heart, she has recently been researching a poison and is considering whether to test snake venom. Now that I see such a big one in front of me, I am scared and ready to move at the same time.

Whoosh!

I don't know where a few sharp arrows flew from, and one was stuck in the back of the green snake. Enraged, the green snake opened its mouth wide and bared its sharp teeth, looking around for the enemy's origin.

Whoosh!

A few more sharp arrow snakes came, and the green snake's red eyes glared at the boss, and soon hid in the grass not far away.

Despite its huge body, its speed is also amazingly fast. A smoke slipped to the bushes, but unfortunately, it was already empty when it passed.

What kind of divine operation is this, the archery man is gone!

Zhang Xiaoyan looked over there in amazement, not daring to make any noise, so as not to divert the attention of the green snake.

Whoosh!

The sharp arrow came in the other direction, landing on the green snake again, and this time, an arrow shot directly through the green snake's neck, causing the green snake to dance wildly in place.
