Jin Shan can also be regarded as a proud person, and finally persuaded himself to pull down his face to find Siming, but he was bored with himself, and he came out of Siming's house angrily.

Striding forward all the way, walking outside the south gate, Jin Shan buried his head and muttered, "It's just a young man, do you feel great when you climb a new master?" ”

As soon as he got out of the city gate, he got into a carriage and went farther to the south gate, when the wind and snow on the road were coming, blowing up the curtain of the carriage, and Jinshan's eyes were staring ahead, with a serious expression on his face that was different from before.

The carriage went down the path, and after two or three miles, there was a low thatched hut standing at the end of the road, and Jinshan got down from the car, looked at the wind and snow in the sky, patted the snowflakes on his shoulders, and walked to the yard with his feet.

There were not many people in the yard, there were a few men standing scattered, and a few people in the house gathered around to play the side stove. ”

Jin Shan waved his hand, found a clean place to sit, supported his leg with one hand, and asked, "Is there any movement over there?" ”

The people in the room were a little embarrassed, and none of them stepped forward to answer, and after a while, someone took two steps forward, raised their hands respectfully, and replied, "Miss Jin, since this Lin Liang came to take charge, the news in it has become more and more difficult to know, and you don't know it, it has been difficult for the brothers to touch it again recently." ”

"Is this what I'm asking?" Jinshan's fingers were pounding in the air, his eyes were staring at the person, and the corners of his mouth that had been upturned just now also fell heavily.

Seeing that the situation was not right, another man walked out from behind and said, "Miss Jin, you have been testing our movements recently, so you can't go out." ”

"Did they find anything?" Jinshan asked again.

The man breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "The brothers have been a little more restrained recently, except for the two brothers who were arrested at the beginning, they should not have found out anything else. ”

"What about them?"

"When I came down the slope, I broke my leg and was recuperating at home. Miss Jin, they haven't leaked a word outside, and they shouldn't know it's us. After speaking, the man was also a little unconfident, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

The faster Jin Shan's fingers tapped, his face was low, and after a while, he took out a piece of silver from the money bag, handed it to the man who answered, and said, "It's almost the holiday, then the money will go and buy some delicious food, and it will be dispersed in the next few days." ”

The man took the silver, and he was also happy, and when he saw Jinshan go outside, he weighed it, and bit it in his mouth before putting it in his chest, and after a while, he suddenly remembered something, chased him to the courtyard, and shouted to Jinshan, "Miss Jin, there is something I don't know if you are useful or not, I heard a friend from the government say that Tong Chunsheng, who was taken to exile last year, escaped from the exile and disappeared. ”

Hearing this, Jinshan stopped, his face could not be seen, and when his hair covered by the heavy snow was already wet, he turned around and went out and got into the carriage.

···

The house where the Jinshan family lives is not a very prosperous location in the south of the city, and the house of the Jinshan family can only be seen after walking a mile or two from the avenue of the south gate, and then walking around the alley.

Pushing the door in, a man immediately came over to wait, bent down and said, "Girl, the master is making a side stove in the hall, so you can go and eat a bite of hot and hot food when you come back." ”

Jinshan asked the young man to reply first, and then went to the house to change his clothes before going to the hall, where his parents and his parents were around the stove to order some meat dishes.

The crackling sound of boots walking on the snow is no different from the sound of firewood burning under the stove. Jin Shan walked over, took a pair of chopsticks, and sat between the fourth lady and the fourth master Ma.

The fourth lady also sat down, touched Jinshan's cold hand, and asked with concern, "Where did this go, why are your hands so cold?" ”

After Jin Shan came back, there had been some wood, but when the fourth lady came to shake hands, it was as if he was awakened, and the feeling on his body came back a little, and he looked at the heavy snow outside, only to realize that the weather was already so cold, and hurriedly put his hand that had been frozen red by the stove to feel some warmth.

"It's still a little less snowy at home." Jin Shan said with a smile while rubbing his hands.

Ma Siye has been very quiet recently, and when he heard his wife and children talking, he didn't pick up the conversation, but just blindly put the vegetables into the pot, and gave some to Jinshan to let her eat more.

Besides, it was just some common words, and it was only after most of the dishes in the side stove had been eaten that the four ladies suddenly remembered some things that they had wanted to say a long time ago.

"Why, you go and send something to your sixth aunt for your mother." The fourth lady doesn't go out often, and if she has something to give away, she either sends a guy to do it, or asks Jinshan to go for a run.

And the things of the six girls who got married and went back to their parents' house were all run by Jinshan himself, in addition to the elders, there were also these six girls who were not generous people, if they were sent by the guys, they would often make things difficult for others, pointing to Sang and scolding Huai and saying that the people of the fourth brother's family looked down on people.

Geumseon picked up the last piece of beef, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and asked, "What do you want to give?" If it's light, I'll send it to her in a moment. ”

"It's all used in winter, charcoals, quilts, and so on. I'll send it tomorrow morning, it's just snowed, the road is slippery, and it's inconvenient to go. The fourth lady said.

Jinshan frowned and asked, "My cousin who didn't make it is here again?" ”

The fourth lady slapped Jinshan and said, "Don't talk about your cousin like that, he is still young, and when he is older and sensible, he will not cause these troubles." You forgot that when you were a child, you always got into trouble and came back, and tortured your father and me enough. ”

"They're all eighteen years old, and they haven't spent a lot of money, so I can't say two words about him?" Jin Shan thinks that he is different from this cousin, and comparing him to himself is simply insulting to himself.

"Okay, okay, it's just a matter of saying these words in front of us, your sixth aunt should be careless when she hears it, go early tomorrow and come back early." I don't know when the snow will stop, but I'll bring two guys to help you get some things tomorrow. The fourth lady said.

"Got it." Jin Shan didn't want to continue to talk about it, wiped his mouth, and went to the side to rest, and after a while, he asked, "Dad, do you want to reduce some silver from the family this year?" ”

Ma Siye was picking his teeth, he didn't pay attention, poked some inside, the gums of the poke hurt, hissed, took out the bamboo stick, and then returned to Jinshan Dao, "Let them go, as long as there is less next year, let them eat some." ”

"Daddy! You just don't care about things, so that their family will be domineering step by step to this day, when the ancestors divided this tea garden, they let the children and grandchildren eat enough. As a result, now, as long as their family eats and drinks spicy food, they give a little bit when other families have a good year, just like sending a flower child. In this white city, his family dares to call the Ma family, and the others are nameless. "Jinshan has long been unhappy with these things.

Although the fourth lady knew that her girl had a bit of a temper, she didn't want to beat her This time, she said these words directly, and hurriedly stopped Jinshan and said, "Why, what are you doing here, these words are hurtful and angry, your uncle has uncle's difficulties, we don't have to do anything, it's not bad to get some silver." ”

"Don't do anything! It's he who doesn't let us do it, he just wants to eat away at our share little by little, look at Cousin Yi's house, and you will know that the next one is our family. Jin Shan said again.

"Jinshan! Stop it. Ma Siye couldn't listen to it, and finally spoke out to stop Jinshan.

Jin Shan has never been said anything serious by his father, but at this time he yelled at her for such a thing, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was even worse, so he got up and lifted his skirt, and went back to the house directly.

It didn't take long for someone to push the door in, and cautiously, in a soft voice, said, "My son, are you still angry?" ”

"Nope! I'm a little kid, what's there to be angry about! Jin Shan said angrily.

The fourth lady knew that she was really angry, and walked to the back room again in the dark, "Your father is not angry with you, you also know that it is not easy to deal with this family, what you said makes people chew it, and I am afraid that it will be unhappy." ”

"Then let them chew it! Have the face to do these things, but don't have the face to admit it! What else did you say about the succession this year, I have seen that the succession is fake, and the last property of the third uncle's family is real! ”

"Alas, my son, don't talk about it, let them make trouble about this matter, let's not wade into this troubled water." The fourth lady hurriedly sat down on the side of Jinshan's bed and booed.

"When they set their eyes on us to see who will come to this muddy water, even if my father moves farther away and moves out of this white city, it is not to let people take back their share, or find an excuse to eat the tea mountain every year."

"Okay, it's not over yet, your father will naturally have a plan for this matter, don't meddle in it, you live this life well, and your father and I have nothing else to worry about." Although the fourth lady was a little harsh in her words, she stroked Jinshan's back in her hand and comforted her.

Jin Shan said enough, he also closed his voice, leaned his head on the fourth lady, and said coquettishly, "Mother, they are bullying people too much, I just talk, I should eat, drink, tomorrow is still a young man who is not doing his job." ”

"Well, I'll pick up another scholar another day and eat, drink and be merry with you." The fourth lady said coaxingly.

"But he's too ugly, how can this be taken out." Jin Shan said coquettishly.

The fourth lady comforted, "We don't like it, that kid has a good character and knowledge, just a friend, and I want to meet this year anyway." ”

"Then see, he's going to be angry with me, don't blame me." Jinshan said.

In the end, the fourth lady hurriedly said, "If he dares to leave, we will withdraw this matter and find another one for you." When she said this, the fourth lady suddenly remembered the child's appearance when she met last year, and said to Jinshan, "How did I look at his pockmarked face last year." ”

"You're coaxing me again." Jin Shan moved, and drilled into the arms of the fourth lady again.
