When he was a child, he often went to the carpenter's shop and made some knick-knacks out of some broken wood, even if it was crooked, he was very proud.

A family of five.

The eldest brother is honest and works with his father early, and his hands are full of scars.

The second brother is greedy for fun, pulling the little girl's braids all day long, pulling a bunch of runny little followers, climbing trees and digging birds, going down to the river to catch fish, and tanning like charcoal for a long time in summer.

is the eldest child, the most painful three babies of my father.

In the past, when he was not full of food and clothing, eggs and sugar were precious, but when he was sick, he could always eat scrambled eggs with spoon heads and drink a small bowl of sweet sugar water.

It is said that sand sugar comes from distant sand countries.

Poor, raise a hen and slowly save eggs. Is an egg still made in a large pot? Put it in a spoon, fry it on the fire, and eat it with a hot tongue, which is rare and tight.

Sprinkle a small handful of white sugar into the water, stir with chopsticks, and drink it, no matter how big or small it is, all proudly lick the bowl, and then lick the chopsticks.

Whenever this happens, the second brother will drool, and the eldest brother pretends not to see it.

After a long time, the second brother competed, but the second brother didn't dare to fight with his father, so he secretly beat him several times.

Of course, he didn't want to be beaten, and planned to sue his mother.

"Phew! How dare you say it! How dare you say I'll kill you! ”

The second brother fought badly, and none of the children of the same age disagreed with the second brother, so the third baby also coaxed, cried for a while, and whimpered: "I ...... Don't say it...... Don't beat me ......."

When I had the opportunity to eat spoon-headed eggs next time, the mother looked at the three babies with a smile: "Why don't you eat it?" After speaking, the mother coughed.

Embarrassed, he peeked at the second brother, and the second brother glared at him.

"Mother...... I...... You eat it. He didn't want to leave it to his second brother, so he simply didn't eat anyone.

At that time, I thought I was very smart, but my mother was stunned, and then smiled: "Hey! My mother doesn't like to eat this, I haven't eaten it! Three babies, eat, grow! ”

didn't hold back, Cheng San ate the egg. The mother kept watching the three babies finish eating.

It's so fragrant.

This time, I don't know why, the second brother didn't hit him.

Later, the town of North Germany became larger, more populated, more traded with other distant towns, and the lives of the common people of the town became richer.

The carpenter's shop business is gradually improving, and the family can eat white flour buns.

But Cheng San remembered that the second brother would beat people, and his mother broke a piece of the white flour bun for him to eat while it was hot, but he didn't eat it, and turned his head to find his father: "Dad, you eat!" ”

Dad was teaching the second brother a lesson, and when he saw that the old man sent a white-faced bun, his face eased a lot.

The second brother "hummed", but the father laughed: "Good son! , I also know that I am thinking about Lao Tzu! Okay, you can eat, there are a lot of white bread buns! The eldest and second go to eat too! ”

At dinner, my mother coughed endlessly, and my father was distressed: "Let you go to Dr. Wang's to have a look, but you just won't listen!" ”

The three brothers were eating with steamed buns stuffed in their mouths, and when they heard their father speak, they all looked up.

Silver threads are mixed in the black hair, and there are many wrinkles at the corners of the mother's eyes.

Cheng San devoured the steamed buns in his mouth, grabbed another one and continued to eat.

Who hasn't coughed? Just wait a few days.

The mother who felt that she had rough skin and thick flesh was not convinced, and patted her chest to stop coughing: "Doctor Wang said that you have to drink medicine." I don't drink it, it's useless. It will be fine in two days, and it will be a waste of money to buy medicine. ”

In the days that followed, my mother was always dizzy and her health was getting worse and worse.

Originally, Cheng San had a good relationship with the eldest brother, but later the second brother stopped beating him secretly, and still played with him, so Cheng San spent all day with the second brother.

According to my father's meaning, the old university has the best craft, and the carpenter shop will be passed on to the boss in the future.

Cheng San was a little disappointed, but his own work was indeed not as good as that of the eldest brother, and as for the second brother, he never wanted to be a carpenter.

"Little San, in the future, the second brother will take you out and make a lot of money!"

"Second brother, I'm not a junior."

"What do you call, what should you do. Do you want to make a lot of money? ”

Cheng San scratched his head: "Think, how do you make money?" ”

"Hehe," the second brother smiled ill-willedly, "San'er, if you want to make money, you have to have a principal." The second brother heard that the kiln in a big place can sell men......"

"Ah...... I won't go. ”

The second brother, who was dressed in rags and unkempt, stretched out his arm and wrapped it around his neck: "You bear look, you can't sell it!" Worry about what's the matter! ”

Cheng San struggled desperately, and he was almost killed by the stench under the armpit of his second brother.

That winter, my mother died.

Crying, crying, crying...... Mother......

Fourteen-year-old Cheng San saw his father drinking alcohol, and the eldest brother and second brother burst into tears.

Outside the silent house, there was a heavy snowfall.

Sawdust drifts with snowflakes, snowflakes fall, and sawdust buries the snow.

He vaguely remembered, in a blur, this time.

"Three babies, come, eat eggs, eat quickly."

"Mother, you can eat ...... too"

"Mother, don't be greedy for this ......"

He woke up and laughed.

It's so delicious, the second brother didn't beat him.

"Mother, I still want to eat—mother?"

His stomach crumbled twice before he found himself alone on the bed.

I vaguely remember that the second brother drank with his father, and the eldest brother took over the carpenter's shop.

Tears welled up as he sniffed.

Later, my father said that he wanted to leave: "I thought about it, the second child is right, only when you go out to mix can you have a good life, and you can bury the coffin with sawdust as a carpenter all your life." ”

The eldest brother who was holding a small bench in his hand didn't know what to say, and the second brother said, bring me.

Cheng San also wanted to go, but his father waved his hand and said, "You guys are blindly following and making trouble." When Lao Tzu goes to explore the way for you first! ”

One gone, three years.

In the season of falling leaves, my father did not return to his roots.

The eldest brother is the father. The two younger brothers in the family became the burden of the eldest brother Cheng Shou.

Cheng Er and Cheng San occasionally make a little money, but it's not a serious thing.

Then Cheng Shou got married, the three brothers originally lived in one room, and when the sister-in-law came, Cheng Shou and his daughter-in-law went to his father's house.

After a simple cleanup, the days continued, although there was an extra girl at home, Cheng Er Cheng San felt awkward.

Eighteen-year-old Cheng San is neither honest like his eldest brother and running a carpenter shop to live with peace of mind, nor like his second brother, who goes to the house to uncover the tiles and is hated by everyone.

So far, the old man's highest evaluation of Cheng San is: he still understands the rules.

Take a good shower and change your clothes, Cheng San is a good man.

In fact, whoever is cleaner and well-dressed is also human-like and dog-like.

It's just that there is a difference in the place of reincarnation.

One day, Cheng San looked up at the sky and stumbled upon someone standing on the roof, with long flowing hair and light-colored blue clothes moving slightly—like a fairy descending on the world.

The fairy looked at the clouds, his eyes were dumbfounded, and his expression was wooden.

It was the first time he had ever seen such a beautiful girl in his life.

Recognizing that the fairy's feet were Aunt Lin's yard, Cheng San hid in the corner and looked at her silently for a long time.

Even if he often talks to women when he plays, he really wants Cheng San to take the initiative to get to know the girl, unless he has a knife on his neck.

For a day or two, Cheng Sanlao went to look, can the second brother not know his younger brother's careful thoughts? dragged him to dig out the bird's nest and sent the little sparrow that didn't have all the hair to Aunt Lin.

It just so happened that the fairy was in the small courtyard, and Cheng Er pushed the boat down the river to invite them to play.

Aunt Lin is so shrewd, how can the cabbage be arched by a pig! She was just about to return the little sparrow with a soft palm, when she heard Chi Apple, who had just punched and kicked fiercely, answered and went out.

"Huh? Apple! Alas, come back early! ”

"Yes, it will."

Apple......

Cheng San remembered.

Unexpectedly, the fairy asked to talk to Cheng San alone.

"Ahem, second brother...... "You go first."

The second brother gave him a color and walked away quickly.

"Ahem, my second brother, gone. Is your name Apple? My name is Cheng San. Subconsciously, he pulled his clothes.

The fairy's skin is a little whiter than that of the other girls. Clothes Jun. Dark eye color...... is worthy of the girl he thinks is handsome.

"My name is Chi Apple." The fairy looked at him calmly, "Why did you spy on me before?" ”

In the first sentence, Cheng San felt that the title "I" was good, and he would have to say "I" in the future. ”

In the second sentence, Cheng San was stunned: "What is cheap?" ”

"You looked at me before."

Cheng San's brain twitched and said, "I'm ...... I can see who you are. Actually, I knew at the time that you were called eating apples. ”

The girl's eyes were inexplicably cold.

"Really! I have a sharp eye...... What's that, the apple is crispy, I heard it's delicious, sweet...... Have you eaten it...... It should be like a sugar gourd......"

Anyway, this girl is kind of hooked up.

Because Cheng San was exposed to the second brother all day long, after he became familiar with Chi Apple, the bastard's personality became more and more flamboyant.

Friends who used to stay together often were surprised that Cheng San had no face and no skin recently, and he dared to say anything in front of Chi Apple except for not swearing.

And it's normal for others to do the girl's pigtails, and Cheng San, who has always been sensible, actually went to pull Chi Apple's hair......

"My mother, didn't you look at it, that Chi Apple slapped Cheng San down! It's like hitting a bamboo pole! The companion performed Chi Apple's arm waving and Cheng San falling to the ground, and a group of people laughed crazy.

Cheng Er, who was present, smiled and didn't squeak.

went home to hide from the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and the two brothers were calculating.

The second brother hates that iron does not become steel, and he says; "Don't be angry! You can also let the fight! You can't even get your hands on it! ”

Cheng San was frustrated, the fall didn't hurt, but the uncomfortable was humiliating. Chi Apple's hair was smooth, black and shiny, Cheng San liked it tightly, and he couldn't help but pull it, and he didn't react when he hit the ground.

"I don't care." Cheng San muttered quietly, "In the future, I will marry, it will be mine, my mother-in-law is a fairy, who has the Chi Apple Jun I married......"
