He was so confused that he couldn't eat it, and Shui Yingying's face flashed in his mind over and over again, it was a face that used to hang high in the clouds, and it was so extravagant to look at. An unfamiliar voice flew from afar: "She really wants to marry me, is the third lady of the Shui family really willing to marry me?" ”

31

Many days have passed, and he suddenly asked, "Uncle, have you also eaten grain?" Liu Xicai was silent, Liu Xicai seemed to have lost his soul these days.

Picking up food and not giving up, timidly, he asked again: "Uncle, that commissioner, what is the noise with you?" ”

"Clamp!" Liu Xicai was on fire now, hatefully, and stinked a sentence to pick up grain. After a long time, seeing that the food was short of energy, Mu kept his face and did not speak, and he was relieved: "Baby, we who grow medicine, only charge medicine in our hearts, and nothing else." ”

"Uncle, I understand."

"No, baby, you don't understand. There are some things that uncle is confused, and you can't understand it anymore. Pharmacist Liu Xicai's gaze was cast into the distance, and that gaze was stupid, stupid, as if, caught by something, as if it had been hollowed out, empty inside, and desperate.

"Uncle ......" couldn't help but call again.

"Baby, uncle is fine, uncle is really fine, uncle just thinks, in this life, how to go is right? Besides, God, does he have eyes? ”

When he heard the grain, he also lowered his head, looking very worried.

The medicine has long been harvested, Qingshiling looks like it has been stripped of a layer of skin, the emerald mountains are gone, the full abundance is gone, the front of the uncle and nephew is exposed, and the land is more like a toad with a big mouth open, and it screams. Winter is coming, this year's winter, it looks like a cold winter, this is just the beginning, the cold is like a knife, straight into people's necks. Liu Xicai tightened his clothes, and his sleeves were tight, his cotton clothes had already been torn, and cotton was dripping out of the cuffs, and the cotton was black and black, and it was clumped. Such cotton clothes can't withstand this cold winter. Not to mention picking up grain, to this day, he is still wearing a single coat, this single coat, it has long been impossible to see that it is a dress, just like the rags wrapped in the horse's belly of the second master of Shui's family, the baby without a mother is pitiful.

But this baby is stunned and looks like she is not afraid of the cold!

Liu Xicai retracted his gaze with great difficulty, looked at the grain, took off his torn cotton jacket, and wrapped it in the grain. "Baby, you have to remember your uncle's words, in this life, you will pay the poor not the rich, the farmers will not pay the business, and the ...... Don't hand over anything! ”

Picking up grain was pondering his uncle's words, and suddenly heard his uncle call: "Baby, look, look, what is that?" ”

As soon as I looked up, I saw a wolf rushing out of the mountain col, its mouth touching the ground, and running forward tigerly. Then, another, without much effort, a pack of wolves sprang out of the col, as if they had entered no man's land, and went to Erdaoxian unscrupulously. The hearts of the two people immediately tightened, and they didn't dare to squeak anymore, but fortunately, the wolves seemed to be moving their nests and had no intention of caring about them. When the wolves completely disappeared and the col calmed down again, Liu Xicai said, "This year, it's not good——"

How can it be?

After the catastrophe, the bluestone ridge made people unable to keep their spirits up. One day not long after Commissioner Zeng Zihang left, the father and daughter of the Shui family were released. It was a depressing dusk, and the people in the courtyard didn't hear anything other than a few weak howls from Shui Yingying. Shui Er Ye seems to be completely dumb, Shui Er Ye, who has always been unconvinced, has brought people too much despair this time, he was supported by Sister-in-law Wu and the dog, standing in the pale and weak glow, the arrogant head was raised a few times, and finally because of the weakness of the two shoulders, he had to droop down, and his chin almost hit his chest. All of a sudden, it made people feel that the water rich man of Qingshiling was nothing more than that. The once tall and majestic body, how can I still see a shadow? As soon as the head drooped, the whole body immediately collapsed, and the collapse was miserable. Even the sister-in-law Wu on the side is much more powerful than him. The dungeon, which lasted for more than 20 days, made him lose weight by ten laps, skin and bones. What's even more terrifying, one of his legs is lame, and it is not obvious when he stands, and when Sister-in-law Wu asks him to take two steps, the limping posture causes the five sons and others who are eating in the backyard to laugh.

That day's tethered five sons didn't end well, and was weighed a hat plate by Meimei, a helper who was eating on the side. The helper was a few years old and had always had a good relationship with him, but that day the helper smacked him because he sprayed rice grains in his face when he laughed. Such a reason to pamper someone's hat plate seems a little unreasonable, but the five sons are struggling, and it is also a rule.

The fifth son was not afraid of helpers, he saw clearly, in the dusk, in the dim light, the two eyes shot directly into his face, and later he said, it was the gaze of picking up grain.

The second master of the water was held by Sister-in-law Wu and the dog, and stood until it was dark, when Feng Chuanwu came over and said fiercely: "Go back to the house!" Sister-in-law Wu and the dog hurriedly helped Shui Erye into the house.

It's not the original upper house, the original upper house, including the upper courtyard, has already been Feng Chuanwu's temporary headquarters, and there is a gun at the gate of the courtyard. Feng Chuanwu pointed to the house that Shui Er Ye gave to the second master, which was the small house that was once given to Bao'er and then closed Shui Yingying.

After the medicine was completely collected, some changes took place in the hospital. First of all, more than half of the soldiers brought by Feng Chuanwu were siphoned off, and it is said that this is an order from the newly appointed inspector Situ Xue'er. Who knows, anyway, there are fewer and fewer soldiers, and by this day, there are only two left in the black skin on Qingshi Ridge, plus Feng Chuanwu, three. Then, the helpers were sent away one by one, the medicine was collected, the sheep in the yard were eaten, and the horses were also taken by Situ Xue'er, so it was redundant to leave the helpers. When the helpers left, they took enough wages, which Feng Chuanwu didn't dare to be sloppy, Zeng Zihang said clearly when he left: "In this Qingshiling, medicine is the first, including the pharmacist and the helper, no one can be offended." Zeng Zihang saw Feng Chuanwu nodding frequently, and said: "By the way, there is also that grain pickup, this baby I look at, it is a material for being a pharmacist, in the future, you have to treat him well." ”

Zeng Zihang didn't say anything about tying up the fifth son, although Feng Chuanwu did help him say a lot of good things in front of Zeng Zihang before, but Zeng Zihang's mind was obviously not on the tethered five sons, and when he left, Feng Chuanwu asked again, Zeng Zihang said impatiently: "You look at it." It was this sentence that made Situ Xue'er interested, and her charming gaze passed through a large group of people who saw them off, and swung on the face of the fifth son for a while. It's a pity, just for a moment.

There is no escaping the desertion of Qingshi Ridge.

The only excitement in the middle comes from the water uncle of Wanzhongtai.

The boss of Wanzhong Taishui didn't seem to know that something had happened in the Shui family compound, and looking at the posture when he came, it really seemed that he didn't know. It was on the fifth day after Zeng Zihang left, Feng Chuanwu was bored in the courtyard, so he took two soldiers to hunt hares on the grass beach, and he was tired of eating mutton and wanted to change his taste. Who knew that the hare had long eyes, but he didn't hit him on the muzzle, causing Feng Chuanwu to lose a few bullets in vain. After the second shot, a donkey suddenly appeared on the grassy beach, and the donkey was lean and lean, but very powerful, and carried a birch saddle on its bony back. At first glance, it was a man who came, probably frightened by the sound of a gunshot, and threw the person down. The donkey held its head high, shook its hooves vigorously, and crashed straight into the Shui family compound. The two soldiers guarding the door held their guns and looked at the donkey vigilantly, and when the donkey threw away its hooves and was about to break into the courtyard, one of the soldiers shouted: "Stop, if you don't stop, you will shoot." At this time, Feng Chuanwu's third gunshot rang out, and the donkey was frightened again, knocked over the soldier who scolded it, and rushed in fearlessly.

Immediately after, a person ran on the grass beach in shock, shouting as he ran: "Old pimple, old pimple, where are you crazy?" The soldier who was standing snapped his gun and blocked the comer.

"Where did you come from, caterpillar, and why are you in my way?" The people who came scolded wildly.

Bingwa shook her bayonet: "I am from the gendarmerie brigade, if you dare to trespass again, be careful that I will shoot you!" ”

"Dog day gendarmerie, my old pimple?" The one who shouted in a thick voice was the boss of Wanzhong Taishui.

"Old pimple?" The soldier baby made the water boss shout confused.

"Donkey, my darling old pimple. Whoever puts a wild gun and frightens my old pimple, I can't spare him. ”

The water boss was still scolding, and the soldier baby who was knocked over by the donkey just now pounced on him and knocked him over with a single shot.

This is worth it, at the moment, the water boss lay on the grass: "The second water boss, the second water boss, when did you raise two dogs, you are powerful, you know that raising dogs bite people......"

Sister-in-law Wu happened to come back with the medicine on her back, and when she saw that it was the water boss, she hurriedly threw the medicine and ran over: "Uncle, you can't scold, this hospital, this hospital has an accident." ”

"Something's wrong, what's wrong?" Boss Shui seemed to have woken up from a coma, rubbed his eyes, and looked at Qingli. Sister-in-law Wu whispered a few words to his ear. Sister-in-law Wu was expecting him to be quiet, but she didn't think that he would be reasonable.

"Oh my God, you're just getting long-eyed. Shui Er, you also have today, haha, you let it be arrested, and your home was copied. Oh my God, you're giving me a breath! ”

If Sister-in-law Wu wants to stop it again, it will be too late. The water boss seems to have broken the embankment, and he wants to scold out the anger that has accumulated for a lifetime. "Second Shui, aren't you very bullish, aren't you afraid of anything, don't you even dare to marry a broom star? Your black broom, sweep, why don't you sweep it? ”

"Uncle-" Sister-in-law Wu was shocked, and there was no blood on her face.

"Don't call me uncle! When I was humiliated by him, why didn't you call me uncle? When I was kicked off the table by him, why didn't you call me uncle? Ah, you vixen! ”

What the water boss said was exactly what Bao'er married to pick up grass and pull the water mat. When the third seat was pulled, the old brothers of the Shui family fell out again, stirring up the matter of Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds in front of everyone, and finally annoyed the second master of Shui, and actually threw the elder brother down at the table. At that time, Sister-in-law Wu didn't speak to Boss Shui, and counted down his no, but before he thought about it, he wrote it down.

"That's good, you scold, you make trouble, you make so much trouble that even you are locked in, but it's no wonder I haven't stopped it." Sister-in-law Wu saw that she couldn't stop him, and said angrily.

"Shut me up? He scraped the party to have this ability, and he dared to lock up my water boss in Wanzhongtai? Hehe, I borrowed ten guts from him, dare to close? ”

As soon as he heard the water boss scolding the party, the two soldiers immediately pounced on him and wanted to ask him. Sister-in-law Wu was in a hurry, and even pleaded for mercy to make amends, so that she could suppress the anger of the soldiers.

Boss Shui scolded for a full hour, scolded enough, scolded cheaply, scolded so much that he didn't dare to scold, and if he continued to scold, maybe he would really suffer. Then he said to the soldier: "I don't have the same knowledge as you, go, pull out my old pimple, I'll go, I'll go-"

When Sister-in-law Wu pulled his old pimple out, she saw that in the eyes of Boss Shui, two tears flowed. He was prostrate on the grassy beach, unable to make out whether it was hatred or pain. Sister-in-law Wu choked her throat: "His eldest brother, you get up-"

Boss Shui rolled his eyes with tears, got up on the grass, and looked at the purple gate of the Shui family compound for a long time, the words trembled in his throat, but he couldn't say it anymore. At the end, he grabbed Sister-in-law Wu's hand: "He, Sister-in-law Wu, bring me a message in, just say that my water boss said that if Qingshiling can't survive, come to Wanzhongtai." Wan Zhongtai is his home......"

The donkey disappeared for a long time, and Feng Chuanwu, who had finished beating the rabbit, looked like he was coming back, but Sister-in-law Wu was still frozen there, and the eyes of the two of them who couldn't shed tears for many years poured out an old thing......

What rushed out of Sister-in-law Wu's eyes was the enmity of the two brothers of the Shui family!

Back then, the Shui family made a fortune in Wanzhongtai, but Shui Lao Er didn't learn well, left so many industries in his family and left them behind, and when he returned to Wanzhongtai, he was infected with big smoke. Boss Shui was angry and drove him out of the door. Shui Lao Er is also a kind of person, so he didn't quarrel with Shui Lao, he didn't quarrel with Shui, he only left a dead sentence: "If my Shui Lao Er comes back again, he won't be his mother!" "That's it, the seventeen-year-old young master Shui Er, wearing a single sweat coat on a cold day, went to Qingfeng Gorge Donggou He's house to beg for food. If you don't do it, you have to suffer this undeserved sin, and whoever doesn't say that he deserves it. On the contrary, he can gamble on this anger and suffer this pain. The rich man of Donggou, He Laodong, is not an ordinary person, and there are few who can stand his royal law. However, the seventeen-year-old Shui Lao Er withstood it, not only withstood it, but also endured it very well, and was very appreciated by the He Lao family. No one expected that while the second water boy who wandered the world got into a lot of smoke, he also learned a lot of unique skills, mud walls, pan stoves, being a bargy in an oil mill, and carrying a chimney to his home, none of which could stump him. From time to time, he showed a hand to the He family, which made the He family smack his tongue in shock. If he can take care of himself to learn the farm work in the crop field, maybe he will be the housekeeper of the He family's compound. It's just that he is a person who can't hold his heart in the farmland, and as soon as he is asked to work in the field, his neck immediately itches, and his mind moves on the crooked door ramp all day long. When the He family was wealthy, he actually whimsically proposed to ask the old owner of He to plant poppies in the Qingshiling Reclamation, and said that he knew this craft, which provoked He Dajuan, who was the same size as him at the time, to beat him with a stick, scolding him for mentioning the word big smoke again, and breaking his poor legs. Shui Lao Er was not convinced, and insisted on theorizing with He Dayu: "What's wrong with planting big cigarettes, as long as you don't smoke or smoke, the money is not faster than the crops?" He Dayan, who was young and vigorous and strictly adhered to his father's Zhuang Tiandi, was not allowed to say, so he led his subordinates to drive him out of Donggou, and he was not paid a penny of wages for two years. Shui Lao Er was unwilling, and at the risk of being really broken his leg, he came to discuss with He Lao's family. He Laodong also hated iron and steel, and sighed and said: "I have hurt you for two years in vain, you, learning well is a material, and learning badly will be ashamed of your ancestors." So, I'll give you a donkey, a few buckets of grain, and some farm tools, and if you can plant a field for me in Qingshiling, I'll give you the whole Qingshiling. ”

"Really?"

"When I speak, I have always had a red mouth and white teeth, and the words I spit out are iron."

"Then you leave me a note."

He Laodong stared at him suspiciously for a long time, and said: "Okay, I'll rush at you as a subordinate, and I know that I want a note from me, and I will give it to you." At that moment, he wrote a sheet in black and white, invited witnesses, and pressed his handprint. Shui Lao Er took it, looked at it for a long time, and laughed long: "He Lao Dong, I'm afraid that you will regret it in the future." After laughing, he drove the donkey.

This time, there is Qingshiling today.

In the year when the poppies were fragrant on the bluestone ridge, Shui Lao Er was shocked to hear that his father, who had always been as strong as a yak, suddenly fell ill with an emergency and died. Wan Zhongtai has a message every day, asking him to go back immediately to keep filial piety. Shui Lao Er was ruthless, standing on the bluestone ridge, and would rather swallow tears in his stomach a hundred times and a thousand times, people, but he refused to turn back. A few days later, he heard that his brother Boss Shui had divorced his new daughter-in-law.

Cao Erxiu was carried into the door three days before her father's emergency, and just after the three-day happy day, her father-in-law couldn't get up from the kang. When asking for medicine and seeking medical treatment, the barbarian woman of Sucigou came to the door, and after some talking, the reason was found, Shui Erxiu was a broom star, and on the day she was lifted, two thief stars fell in the sky, one fell in the ditch, and the other was attached to Cao Erxiu. In the confusion of everyone, the barbarian woman spat and spoke, and the water boss had to believe it. In the midst of all these contradictions, he made a decision - Hugh.

Cao Erxiu, who came from Tumenzi on the edge of the desert, cried, hugged the red envelope that accompanied her mother's family when she came, and finally glanced at her sick father-in-law and went on the road. She rode a gray donkey, crying as she went. What are you crying about, crying for your life! When she was at her mother's house, there was a goddess who said that in her life, her life was hard, and she was waiting for her, and it was a blessing to jump over, but she couldn't jump over, so wait. She doesn't believe it, but she can't believe it, the girl has grown to fifteen, and the matchmaker has broken the door, what about her, seventeen, eighteen in the blink of an eye, unexpectedly, there is not even a trace. Looking in the mirror, a face is watery, the eyes are eyes and noses, which point is worse than people? Look at the figure again, don't look at it, you have to shout out when you see it, oh my God, this kind of figure, I'm afraid that if I marry in Liangzhou City, I won't be suspicious. Wait left and right, finally, the Shui family came to the door, the grass is beautiful, who is the Shui family in Wanzhongtai? The family is big and the business is big, and the crops in one ditch and two furrows are afraid that they will not be able to eat all the miles in several lifetimes.

Who knows, I got married with a smile, and before I had been happy for three days, my father-in-law lay down, and then I heard Hugh.

"Hugh, you water boss, dead ghost, my father-in-law obviously ate the banquet, but he wants to blame me, woo-" The gray donkey pouted, and the grass showed more and more panic, thinking about the road ahead, oh my God, how do you live?!

When I arrived at the road, I was about to get off the donkey, and a person suddenly blocked in front, and I was also leading the donkey, and on the donkey, carrying two small bundles of poppies, dazzling poppies, illuminated the dead mountain road at once, and it was beautiful, and the face of the grass show was still covered with clouds just now.

"Who are you, what are you doing in my way?" Cao Erxiu held back her shame and asked.

The man didn't speak, only stared at her, and saw that Cao'erxiu's face was getting redder and more shy.

After looking enough, he looked at the grass so much that he was about to drill into the cracks in the ground, and then asked, "Will you go to Qingshiling with me?" ”

"Are you...... Ran away from the dick? "Cao'er Xiu was shocked, I had long heard that there was a second child in the Shui family, he ate what people didn't eat, and he did what people didn't do.

Shui Lao Er didn't nod, didn't shake his head, his eyes, and never left Cao'erxiu for a moment, "Ask you, do you want to go with me?" ”

How dare Shui Erxiu wonder, just now he was thinking about where to find death, this time, he didn't want to die at all, he blushed and nodded hurriedly, his hand had touched the burden. Shui Lao Er didn't doubt, picked her up as soon as he picked her up, threw it on his donkey, and said in his mouth: "I don't believe you are a broom star!" ”

Two bundles of poppies shook open, and before Cao Erxiu could react, this person had become a flower man, and his head, body, and even feet had all become fragrant poppies. The poppies of that year, the extraordinarily enchanting, the extraordinarily amorous, and the extraordinarily glamorous, made the whole valley so rich that it couldn't be dissolved. When Shui Lao Er got on the donkey, he said viciously: "You don't want it, I want it!" ”

The donkey's hooves clicked, a couple of newcomers hit the road, and if they went further, in the eyes of Cao Erxiu, they were so happy that they couldn't see anything.

My father finally died, and my father, who had been strong all his life, failed to escape a catastrophe because Boss Shui took a break from the grass show, and died in a thick snow that winter. The snow sealed the mountain, blocking the footsteps of the second water to mourn, in fact, without this snow, the second water would not necessarily have to go. This person, who has been cursed thousands of times by the water boss, finally fell into the notoriety of an unfilial son. Fortunately, in this heavy snow, the broom Xingcao Erxiu was happy, and she walked with a slightly difficult step, standing in the thick snow, her eyes staring at the direction of Wanzhongtai. The snow hit her whitening face, turning into something resembling tears. Behind her, her man, Shui Lao'er, grabbed two balls of snow with both hands and pinched them into pieces.

The luxury and wealth of Wanzhongtai gradually dispersed due to the departure of his father, as if, the pulse of the rich Shui family was secretly taken away by his father, and the Shui family on the rich side began to decline with an irreversible trend. The water boss, who lost his wife and father one after another, was in a state of confusion all day long, giving people the illusion of decadence, and he seemed to be unable to find a way out of the predicament except to sit and eat. Unfortunately, for several years in a row, he was sacked by bandits. When the second boss of Qingshiling Shangshui was in full swing, the boss of Wanzhong Taishui couldn't get out of the ecstasy array except for complaining and cursing. One day, he rode the only remaining green donkey in the family, came to Qingshiling in a sluggish manner, raised his sleepy eyes, looked at the green of the living spirit around him, opened his nose, sniffed the poppy fragrance in the air, and could no longer hold back the resentment in his heart, jumped off the donkey and scolded: "Shui Er, you are not a thing, you return my woman, and return my pulse!" ”

According to Boss Shui's understanding, Qingshiling is why it is today, not that he has many days of ability, but that the broom star brought the pulse of Wanzhongtai when he left. not only brought the pulse, but also took away the fireworks of his Shui family, otherwise, he Shui Boss can still be a single person today? Otherwise, Wan Zhongtai is so powerful that he can be defeated in two hits? "Shui Er, you have poison in your eyes, you have snakes in your heart, you return my woman, and return my fireworks!"

The scolding was ringing, and a person rushed out of the courtyard, not the second water child, but the grass show. I saw that she was holding a black broom specially used by Shui Lao Er to drive away ghosts and gods, and it was a broom on the face of the water boss! Now, she's in trouble. The water boss couldn't find a reason, and he asked the second water boss to ask the woman for fireworks, which was somewhat strong, and he was beaten by the black broom of the grass show, and the reason was enough, and it was enough. This woman has swept away all his heroic and youthful spirit, what reason does he have not to lie down in Qingshiling and lie down until he is old!

Who knows, Shui Lao Er jumped out after him, and what he was carrying in his hand was not a black broom, but a dog beating stick that hurt several times and dozens of times more than a black broom. Yo hehe, this pair of brothers from the Shui family is really incomprehensible, so I saw Shui Lao Er pick up the dog beating stick and knock it on the head of Shui Lao. How dare the water boss lie down, it's too late to run, and while running, he is still scolding in his mouth. This scolding, Shui Lao Er's determination to fight was even stronger, I saw him like a wolf on the grass beach, and he drove his brother Shui Lao out of the grass beach alive, and the green donkey didn't let him lead him. Poor water boss, the woman and the fireworks didn't arrive, but gave the only remaining donkey to the water boss!

The hatred of the brothers was planted because of this, until Cao Erxiu unfortunately died early, leaving behind four babies, and the grievances between the two have not yet resolved.

All of this was told to her by Sister-in-law Wu after she arrived at Qingshiling. By the warm stove in winter, Shui Erye couldn't help but spit when he talked about this. Those long and really lonely nights, a little widow from Tumenzi, a bachelor in the prime of life on Qingshi Ridge, relied on these jokes to pass the night. However, as the second water child spoke, he would hold his head violently, and his father and mother would scream for a while. As soon as the second water screamed, the tears in Sister-in-law Wu's eyes began to flow......

32

The wind is blowing.

As soon as the mountain is bald, this wind is particularly strong. The sky is abrupt, gray for a few days, I'm afraid, snow is coming.

Liu Xicai and the grain pickers walked on the dry ridge one after the other, and the ridge was dry, and the medicine could not be found. But the two of them couldn't stay idle, they couldn't stay in the courtyard for an hour, their feet were itchy, and their hearts were itching.

Moreover, when people are idle, right and wrong will come.

From between the two pharmacists, from the five sons and the grain.

The contradiction between Liu Xicai and Pharmacist Cao was still formed at that time, that is, when he was almost killed by urine poison grass when he was collecting grain. As soon as he picked up the grain, Liu Xicai pounced on Pharmacist Cao and tore his neck: "The surname is Cao, are you still human?" Pharmacist Cao pretended to be scared and widened his eyes: "Xicai, what are you doing?" ”

"What are you doing, I really want to smash your dog's eyes!"

Liu Xicai first hated Pharmacist Cao for not saving him when he saw death, and he was like that when he picked up food, how could he stand by and watch? At least, he should soak urine, urine can relieve general toxicity, even if it is highly toxic, urine can also relieve symptoms, this common sense, it is impossible for the surname Cao not to know. Moreover, the things he rubbed on the acupuncture points of the grain picking, the surname Cao also has them, which pharmacist doesn't have some common goods in his coat? Even if you don't save others, you have to defend yourself. This beast! Later he scolded.

Then, he listened to Sister-in-law Wu and the dog talking about what happened after he left, how did the noisy surnamed Cao bully and pick up food, why was he not convinced to pick up food, and he almost had to pick up food. In Liu Xicai's heart, his opinion of the surname Cao is even heavier. Originally, before he left, he repeatedly settled down with the grain, if the surname Cao wanted to ask, why the medicine was different, he said that it was the ground, the wolf and the crow platform had good gas and fat feet, and he said that he was highly skilled, and he was afraid that the surname Cao would have a bad heart. I didn't think about it, but he really got up. Liu Xicai asked about picking up grain, but this baby didn't spit out a word. The baby is a good baby, she can carry a heavy load, she can endure it, and she can pretend to be in her heart for everything, which is not easy.

After that, Liu Xicai and Pharmacist Cao talked less, almost didn't say anything, and when they had to say it, it was as simple as one or two words. But in the past few days, the surnamed Cao seems to be determined to alleviate this contradiction, whether it is to ease it, Liu Xicai is not the kind of person who is unforgiving. However, the surname Cao has a crooked heart, and what he asked, noisy, and tempting was all about Liu Xicai and Zeng Zihang. A pharmacist, what are you doing with all these thoughts, can he give you an official? Early this morning, what the surname Cao didn't say in his mouth, he actually mentioned a woman surnamed Situ, and said: "Yo hehe, what is a woman, that's a woman, you and I have lived for most of our lives, and we have lived in vain, if there is such a woman to sleep in my arms, God, it is worth ten years of early death." ”

Listen, human talk?

"This person is not right!" Liu Xicai came to a conclusion to the surname Cao, and repeatedly told him to pick up grain and stay away from him.

Picking up grain is similar to tying up five sons. Tie up the five sons, keep up with the Cao Yaoshi, learn wrong, learn crookedly, and learn not like a person. Regardless of what he did to the Shui family, just say that he is collecting grain, hum, I can't mention it! The dog is good at picking up grain, he is not convinced, Sister-in-law Wu is good at picking up food, he is not convinced, including Liu Xicai is good at picking up grain, he is not convinced. You say, is he overbearing or not? Early this morning, the dog is going to pick up dry manure on the grass beach, while the weather is not cold to the end, the dog wants to fill the hot kang in the winter to pick up the dung, see the grain in the yard idle, so shout: "Brother to pick up grain, nothing to do with me to pick up dung." "I was about to go out with a basket on my back, and my five sons came over with a gun on my back. By the way, now that Wuzi has become the captain of the medicine protection team, he can be regarded as having made his wish come true, and finally has the gun in his hand. The fifth son glared at the dog: "Yo hey, brother picking up food, how affectionate you are." The dog pouted and ignored him. The fifth son turned to collect grain again, and shouted viciously: "Put it down!" ”

The sparks in the eyes of the grain pickers came out, and they all said that the grain pickers had a good temperament, and that was a good person, and for an ungrateful person like the five sons, it was not good to pick up grain.

"Who are you talking about?!" Picking up grain suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked Zhengse.

"I'm talking about you, what's the matter, you're not convinced?" The fifth son didn't expect to return the grain when he picked up food, and his heart was weak, but he relied on the gun on his body, and he held up his spirit again. "If you don't have me, you are not allowed to go out casually in the future, do you hear?" He said again.

Picking up food without saying a word, he also realized the gun on the five sons, and turned to walk to the backyard. "Come back!" Seeing that the grain was picking up and giving way, the arrogance of the five sons could not be suppressed: "The captain is talking to you, are you deaf?" ”

A pair of small fists clenched to pick up grain, his eyes were fixed on the face of the five sons, the two of them were stalemate, Feng Chuanwu came over, glared at the five sons viciously, and said, "Captain of the chain, go, pour out the urinal in my house." ”

The fifth son was still rubbing, and was about to order the grain to be poured, but Feng Chuanwu's words came again: "What, don't you think I'm sassy?" The five sons were frightened, and hurriedly put away their thoughts and ran to empty the urinal.

Feng Chuanwu then turned to collect grain, and there was a very complicated content in his gaze. He doesn't like to pick up grain, and none of the people in this courtyard, except for the third lady Yingying, Feng Chuanwu likes it. But picking up grain was specially confessed by Commissioner Zeng Zihang when he left, and he had to like it if he didn't like it. After standing for a while, Feng Chuanwu suddenly squeezed out a little smile on his face, as if he liked to pick up grain: "Go, help the girl pick up more, this year's winter is cold, prepare more." ”

After picking up food, I went out with the dog. Looking at a pair of young people, Feng Chuanwu's mind suddenly flashed out of his several aunts. Damn, you can't enjoy the blessings, you have to sleep on this broken mountain every day! In his heart, a layer of dissatisfaction with Commissioner Zeng Zihang secretly welled up. But it didn't take long for another person to flash out of my mind. Standing in the cold wind of the early morning, Feng Chuanwu once again couldn't help but think of the great beauty Shui Yingying in this courtyard, what a good dish it was, if she could sleep with her, hehe, hehehe......

"Baby, do you see it, this surnamed Feng is not kind to the Shui family." Liu Xicai, who was walking in front, said suddenly.

"Why can't you see it, uncle, you say, is there any way to help the second master and the third lady?"

"I can't help it, baby." Liu Xicai sighed helplessly. But he followed up and said: "Baby, it's still a small mess right now, I'm worried that the big disaster is still to come." ”

Pick up food and don't speak. Another thing suddenly came to his mind, which was related to Xiao Wuzi.

Xiao Wuzi has a secret.

This secret was inadvertently bumped into the grain gleaning eye when I went to the mountains to pluck green onions. At that time, the soldiers ordered to pick up grain and follow Xiao Wuzi to pluck green onions, asking them to go back quickly, dare to run around, and be careful of guns. As soon as Xiao Wuzi was discharged from the hospital, he ran to the wild boar cave in a hurry. Picking up grain and shouting: "The green onion is here, you ran backwards." Xiao Wuzi covered his mouth and told him to quickly pluck the green onions, leave him alone, and see you at the gate of the courtyard when the time comes.

After that, in my heart of collecting grain, I kept a mind on Xiao Wuzi and a god on the wild boar cave. After the soldiers left Qingshi Ridge one after another, once he was alone on the mountain to pick up dry firewood, in his eyes, suddenly bumped into a shadow, faintly, he looked like a pimple, but he was not sure. Although he didn't know what he was doing in the wild boar hole, he still thought of a lot of things in his heart.

In recent days, he has found that Xiao Wuzi's whereabouts are becoming more and more mysterious, and whenever he has the opportunity, he will slip out and not let anyone follow. He reminded Sister-in-law Wu, and Sister-in-law Wu said: "Regardless of him, he is more knowledgeable than you." ”

Seeing this thing, sometimes I'm afraid it will hurt people. He muttered in his heart, but he didn't say it. He really wanted to sweat for Xiao Wuzi, there were too many unforeseen things that had happened, and he didn't want to see a scene that was more afraid of people.

When he was thinking about collecting grain, he heard Uncle Xicai say again: "Yingying, this baby, is also a bitter star, you see, what has become of these days?" ”

In a word, it hurts to pick up food, it hurts.

After Yingying was imprisoned by Feng Chuanwu, she had met the grain twice, far away, once in the southern courtyard and once in the backyard. Picking up grain is a person who can't see others being wronged, how much grievance, he suffers by himself, it's okay, and if he is replaced by others, his heart hurts. Moreover, the third lady of the Shui family suffered, which one was wronged! People with such high spirits are ruined, ruined. Only then did I find that the more high-spirited people are, the more they can't stand this flying disaster. The father and daughter of the Shui family, in this disaster, the heel fight was too heavy, I am afraid that it will be a while and a half, and it will not be able to slow down. Besides, what's the delay, the house is occupied, the silver is robbed, the sheep in the backyard are eaten up, so the majestic horses are gone, what can you delay? Except for this empty courtyard, I'm afraid that the Shui family is no different from the poor. It's no different.

In this world, why can't even the rich let go? In the past, I only said that people were poor and were bullied, but I didn't think that the rich were also bullied.

It's windy again. Roaring and roaring, scraping people's hearts.

Liu Xicai's worries were not superfluous at all, and this night, something happened.

The incident happened in the South Courtyard, Shui Yingying's boudoir.

Man has fallen asleep. After entering the winter, Feng Chuanwu set many inexplicable rules in the courtyard, one of which was that they could not move around each other after dark. After the black rice was eaten, all the work in and out of the courtyard was cleaned up, and whoever entered whose house went to sleep. The two soldiers hung their guns and patrolled from door to door, and if they wanted to find unruly, they would be dragged to the courtyard and frozen overnight. In winter, the nights are long, and the wind is blowing in all directions in the house, and this sleep is better than not sleeping.

Liu Xicai was finally confused, and there was a sudden sound in the courtyard, which was very sharp, he turned over and listened quietly, and the courtyard returned to deathly quiet. This quietness is somewhat unusual, and Liu Xicai's restless heart is becoming more and more uneasy. After a while, he groped his way down the kang, pretended to relieve his hands, and walked out. The courtyard was black, pricked up his ears and listened, but he didn't hear anything abnormal, and when he was puzzled, there was a sound of tapping and tapping footsteps from the opposite side, and Liu Xicai asked in a low voice: "Who?" ”

"It's me, Uncle Liu, did you hear anything?" It was Sister-in-law Wu who spoke.

Sister-in-law Wu didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as she said it, Liu Xicai's heart immediately tightened, and she ran to the south courtyard in a panic. Sister-in-law Wu's footsteps followed closely, looking far more panicked than him, it can be seen that Sister-in-law Wu must have heard the scream. As soon as the two of them ran to the south courtyard wall, a sound of being torn apart sounded, as if it had been blocked and torn and suppressed, which made the scalp tremble. Pharmacist Liu Xicai couldn't hesitate, kicked open the door of the South Courtyard, and threw himself into Shui Yingying's house.

"Go back!" Suddenly the sound of a soldier sounded in the dark night, and then a bright bayonet crossed his eyes. The pharmacist Liu Xicai didn't know where he got the courage, so he snatched the soldier's gun, and slapped the dog day without saying anything. Sister-in-law Wu took advantage of this time to rush in first, oh my God, she screamed.

In the room, a soldier covered Shui Yingying's face with a pillow, and Feng Chuanwu was holding a rope to tie Shui Yingying's struggling legs. Sister-in-law Wu was still screaming, and the pharmacist Liu Xicai had already picked up the handle of the gun and was about to smash Feng Chuanwu's head. Fortunately, Feng Chuanwu hid quickly, otherwise, his straw bun head would have been smashed.

"You beast, how dare you do such a thing!" Liu Xicai was really mad and angry, and took advantage of Feng Chuanwu's stunned emptiness to give him a shot, but it was only smashed on Feng Chuanwu's back. Feng Chuanwu screamed exaggeratedly and fled. The soldier threw the pillow and jumped out of the door.

Sister-in-law Wu hugged Shui Yingying and wailed.

Shui Yingying's clothes were torn to pieces, and her face was purple because she had been covered by the soldier for too long. Liu Xicai walked out without saying a word, and stood like a lone wolf in the night. At this moment, I heard the sound of rustling on the side of the low wall in the middle, and when I looked over the wall, Shui Erye fell under the low wall and was struggling to turn over. Second Master Shui must have wanted to climb over the low wall and pounce on him, but unfortunately his lame leg dragged him down.

The next day, Feng Chuanwu went to Liangzhou City to run errands, and left Dacaotan early in the morning. Soon after Feng Chuanwu left, pharmacist Liu Xicai entered the room of Shui Er Ye in the South Courtyard in a sullen voice, he stayed for a full morning, and when he walked out of Shui Er Ye's house, his face was gloomy, dead and yin.

"I have to think of a way, Uncle Liu." Sister-in-law Wu avoided people and sighed quietly.

"What can you think of, what can you think of?" Pharmacist Liu Xicai seemed to be angry with himself, he didn't eat, he didn't enter the house, he squatted like a dog under the courtyard wall of the South Courtyard, it was dark, and he didn't get up yet.

"Something is going to happen, Uncle Liu." Since this terrible night, Sister-in-law Wu has become chattering, muttering to everyone that something is going to happen.

In the distance, the fifth son was holding a gun, gloating at Liu Xicai.

Feng Chuanwu made up his mind to eat this dish. That day, he excused himself to go to Liangzhou City, but in fact, he rode a horse and walked on the grass beach for a day, so he didn't want to go to Liangzhou City, so what could he do? Could it be that Zeng Zihang will generously say, I will reward Shui Yingying to you and make five rooms? This kind of thing, you can't make a statement, you have to see the opportunity to make raw rice into mature rice, and when the time comes, you still need to see Zeng Zihang's face?

As soon as he thought of Zeng Zihang, Feng Chuanwu's happy heart immediately darkened, and in this farce in Qingshiling, he could see Zeng Zihang, a cunning fox, clearly. According to his opinion, Zeng Zihang staged a double reed play. He skillfully took advantage of the struggle between Lu Rong in Xi'an City, and under the pretext of arresting **, he took the wealth of the Qingshiling Shui family as his own without revealing the mountains and waters. Feng Chuanwu determined that Qiu Jiayuan must have been deliberately let go by Zeng Zihang. This old fox not only did not push Lu Qiu and the others into a desperate situation, leaving a way back for his own future, but also won the trust of Rong Huaishan. That's not all, his old spiciness lies in taking advantage of the struggle of various factions in Liangzhou City, first labeling them as fornications, and then letting them fight in the nest, and finally not only succeeded in exterminating the Qingfeng Regiment, but also made President Bai and others die for him. Ruthless, really ruthless. Right now, he must be borrowing the power of his cousins surnamed Cha again, throwing the contradictions and chaos to them, and he may have bought an official with money.

Compared with these old foxes, he Feng Chuanwu is nothing, a dog, a wild dog that can only bite people but can't get a reward, a dog that is kicked away after biting. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved, if he didn't get Shui Yingying into the quilt again, he would lose it.

Feng Chuanwu led the horse and walked boredly on the grassy beach, when the cold wind of winter hit him one after another. Later, he led the horse to the sister river, which was quiet, the roaring water was no more, and the splashing waves were no more, as if they were going to stop with the cold air of this ridge. Feng Chuanwu was stunned by the river, when a cold gun suddenly rang out behind him, and a bullet whistled past his ear, almost hitting his head. He shouted "who", and a second bullet followed. Mom, he jumped on his horse in fright, and fled to the Shui family compound as if he was dead.

These two bullets woke Feng Chuanwu up, and someone wanted to assassinate him! As soon as he returned to the courtyard, he immediately blew the assembly whistle, and the two soldiers and the five sons ran over with their guns hanging diagonally, Feng Chuanwu shouted in shock: "Listen, there is a ** on the grass beach, you guys, go search for me!" ”

As soon as he heard that there was **, he was so frightened that he was the first to lose his gun and never be a medicine guard again. Feng Chuanwu was so angry that he slapped Wuzi twice at the moment.

The news about the Qingshiling troubles soon spread to Liangzhou City, Feng Chuanwu was not a dog to be slaughtered, and when he saw that the five sons were unreliable, he immediately thought of Liangzhou City. He first bluffed, expanding the ** of Qingshiling dozens of times, and then panicked that he was injured during the night and had to go back to Liangzhou City to treat his injuries. Liangzhou knew that he was threatening, on the one hand, they sent people to appease him, and on the other hand, they secretly sent all the troops and horses into Qingfeng Gorge silently.

Feng Chuanwu sneaked into Shui Yingying's bedroom again and was hit with a hidden knife.

Eighteen-year-old Shui Yingying grew up violently in this disaster, and that day she was hugged into her arms by Sister-in-law Wu, who was in tears and kept touching her with both hands. What about her? Without saying a word, not a single teardrop fell, and a pair of eyes full of hatred stared at the black sky, as if they wanted to stare at a result from the sky. Sister-in-law Wu later said: "Something happened, look at this girl's eyes, in this courtyard, something happened." Sure enough, Feng Chuanwu sent his brothers, kicked away the five tethered sons who were following him, and stepped on the moonlight when he confidently walked into the bedroom with dark incense, and Meimei received a Tibetan knife on his thigh.

Shui Yingying still didn't speak, and she didn't even shout like last time, holding the Tibetan knife in both hands, her eyes staring at Feng Chuanwu's old face. Feng Chuanwu screamed, and when he saw that the knife was pierced in his thigh, he couldn't die for the time being, and another fierce tiger pounced on it and rushed towards Shui Yingying on the kang. As soon as Shui Yingying hid, she pierced Feng Chuanwu's back socket. Feng Chuanwu was anxious, and snapped out his gun: "You dare?" ”

"You dare?!" Shui Yingying replied, people, more and more firm.

Feng Chuanwu was defeated, knowing that this dish was not delicious, he put away his evil thoughts, and said evilly: "Do you believe it or not, Lao Tzu will kill you with one shot?" ”

"Collapse, there is a kind of collapse of you, you scraping party!"

"Okay, even if you have a kind, you are amazing, the more powerful Lao Tzu is, the more I like it! Listen, be obedient, my surname Feng will carry you in a sedan chair and go to Liangzhou City to enjoy happiness. If you dare to comply, be careful that I will collapse your family. ”

"Collapse, you collapse, if you don't collapse my Shui Yingying, I'm not done with you!"

This girl, I've eaten **. Feng Chuanwu still had any thoughts, and when he looked at it, the blood on his legs was still gushing out, he covered his thighs with his hands, and retreated in a gloomy manner.

As soon as I went out, I saw two figures standing in the moonlight. Pharmacist Liu Xicai was carrying a kitchen knife, and in his eyes, two fires were spraying. Behind her, it was Sister-in-law Wu, who was actually carrying a rolling pin.

Feng Chuanwu couldn't cry or laugh, just the two of you, hehe, just laughed, and the pain made him grin. "Stand up and eat people, help me to the upper courtyard."

Pharmacist Liu Xicai hesitated, but in the end, he helped Feng Chuanwu and went to the upper courtyard.

This knife was stabbed a little harder, and it was Feng Chuanwu who often mixed in the sword light and blood shadow, and if he changed someone else, I am afraid that he would have howled into a pile a long time ago. Pharmacist Liu Xicai forcibly suppressed his anger, there was no way, he still had to heal Feng Chuanwu's injuries. He put his strength in his hand, and tore Feng Chuanwu's pants, the blood soaked his entire thigh, and the knife was still rushing out. After tossing for a long time, Feng Chuanwu saw that he was not bleeding, and he was angry: "What are you doing in a daze, stop the bleeding." ”

Liu Xicai stood up and went to the backyard. He had been contradictory in his own room for a long time, and his hand still touched the blanket. When she took the medicine and walked out, Sister-in-law Wu came over and said, "Yingying, this girl, has eaten a gun, and even I scolded her." Liu Xicai made a dark face and said, "Go to the kitchen to get a bowl of water, and the knife edge has to be washed." ”

"Really cure him?" Sister-in-law Wu froze in the night.

At this time, the five sons had already run to the upper courtyard and asked in surprise: "What's wrong?" Feng Chuanwu said: "Lao Tzu is not dead, what are you shouting." ”

As soon as the pharmacist Liu Xicai faced the wound, it was not the Liu Xicai who was breathing fire in his heart just now, I saw that he was careful and carefully took cotton to clean up the blood on Feng Chuanwu's legs. After waiting for a long time, he saw Sister-in-law Wu come in with water, and he said to Feng Chuanwu: "You bear with it, the wound has to be washed, it hurts a little." ”

"Don't worry, if Lao Tzu is afraid of pain, he won't eat this bowl of rice." Before he finished speaking, he pulled his throat and howled: "The surname Liu, you want to harm Lao Tzu, this is water, it's his mother's poison!" ”

When Sister-in-law Wu heard this, her ass was twisted away.

There's salt in the water!

The knife wound was finally bandaged by Pharmacist Cao, Liu Xicai tossed for a long time, the more he tossed Feng Chuanwu felt more pain, and the fifth son was smart, and he ran to call Pharmacist Cao, and the courtyard was quiet.

33

Qingshiling was looted by Feng Chuanwu, reminding He Dajuan. In the past few days, her daughter-in-law Da Mei has been clamoring to go to Qingshiling, saying that she can't watch her father and sister suffer. His son Shuhuai also mentioned it in front of him many times, asking him to take some silver and go to Liangzhou City to see if he could help send Feng Chuanwu and the others back. He Dajun was in a heavy mood, and he asked his daughter-in-law Damei to die as soon as possible. "It's not that I don't save your father and Yingying, in the current situation, my He family can't protect itself. Besides, who is Feng Chuanwu, how can he go back happily? Have you forgotten the benevolence of your second sister's family in Pingyangchuan? As soon as she said this, Da Mei lowered her head. He Dajun said to his son again: "You are also shouting to do your best to make a point, how much money do you have in your house, can you get some money?" ”

Late at night three days ago, he called his son and daughter-in-law to the upper room again, and said with a heavy heart: "I sent someone to inquire, Qingshiling Shui's family and Yingying are not in any danger for the time being, but they have suffered a little bit of flesh and skin." Of course, the money and the horses will not return. But this is also good, giving up money to save your life is also a great luck in misfortune. Seeing that his daughter-in-law Damei was about to shed tears again, he said: "Wipe that thing dry, no matter how much it falls, it won't bring your father's freedom." When his daughter-in-law Damei wiped away her tears, he said solemnly: "At present, the wind in Liangzhou City is getting worse day by day, and people in Gulang County are beheaded every day. I thought I had to settle in early. ”

"What's settled?" Son He Shuhuai asked puzzled.

He Daju sighed, he sighed at his son's stupidity, at this time, what else can he settle down, can't the ransacking of the Qingshiling Water House wake up his elm head?

That night, He Shuhuai went to his godfather's house in Donggou in accordance with his father's instructions, his godfather is an honest man, and his family foundation is thin, but his house is against the mountain, the yard is large, and there are twelve holes. After some conspiracy, the two carriages came to Donggou in the dead of night the next day, and the He family was busy for a while, and people didn't know it, so they transferred the valuable items and cattle and sheep to Donggou. Of course, He Dajun will not be so stupid that he will turn all of them, and he will leave some behind, which can be regarded as a cover-up.

Who knew that as soon as he finished doing this, He Dajun didn't have time to take a breath, and a group of soldiers walked into his house with guns in their hands. This incident was a big surprise to He Dajuan, who was still stunned, so he heard the leader say: "Vacate three rooms, we have to maintain order here." ”

This group of soldiers secretly drove into Qingfeng Gorge from Liangzhou City that night, and they were going to go to the house of the second master of Qingshi Lingshui, but the leader Zha Man'er turned his brain, killed a horse pistol from Dacaotan, and went directly to Donggou He's house.

He Dajuan, the rich man of Donggou, jumped and scolded in the middle of the night, and his son He Shuhuai even threatened to light out the He family's compound with a fire, but you scolded yours, I live in mine, and the soldiers didn't care about the attitude of the He family's father and son.

Situ Xue'er said to Cha Man'er, who led the troops: "I sent you this time just to see your ability, if you can't cure Qingfeng Gorge, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." "Cha Man'er is in his early twenties, and he used to mix under the Ma family soldiers in Qinghai, but Situ Xue'er inquired in many ways before he was transferred from Qinghai.

Judging from Situ Xueer's action, Xi'an did not relax the meaning of Qingshiling at all. At the same time, another piece of news spread through the canyon. An organization called the Assassination Squad was secretly set up in Qingfeng Gorge, which hid behind its back and shot at the national army. Within a few days of the soldiers in the He family's compound, two were reimbursed. When the Gulang County Security Corps was ordered to patrol, they also ate black guns. Situ Xueer was very annoyed, she had just taken office, and before she had time to display her talents, someone competed with her. This woman, who had drunk foreign ink and followed her cousin Cha Jianjian to stay in the army secretly for a while, patted the table and said: "Give me all the strength to search, I don't believe it, a few broken guns, a few dirt buns, can intimidate my dignified national army!" ”

The wind tightened.

Later this day, a message suddenly exploded in the Shui family compound, Shui Yingying ran away!

Feng Chuanwu was very busy during the day, during the day he was responsible for going to the nearby villages to collect medicine, and at night, he had to take the five sons to patrol the night. Situ Xue'er gave several orders in a row, asking him to cooperate closely with Cha Man'er to take back the rhubarb, bupleurum and other herbs in the nearby countryside as soon as possible. This year, I can't say anything about it. In addition, it is necessary to pay close attention to the movements of the assassination team. As soon as Situ Xueer took office, she eliminated an underground organization in Gulang County. Some people confessed that the organizer of the assassination group was a man named Gada, who was extremely strong in martial arts, had a mysterious whereabouts, and held more than 20 guns in his hand.

As soon as Feng Chuanwu entered the courtyard, he heard a report from the soldiers who stayed in the courtyard that Shui Yingying had run away.

"Ran away, didn't you let you guard it?"

"I ...... I ......" The soldier baby's face was white, and she was too frightened to speak.

"Say, when did you run?!"

"Just run, no, run...... I ran for an hour. Bingwa stammered, and he didn't know when Shui Yingying ran.

Bang, Feng Chuanwu picked up his arm and grabbed a few cakes at the soldier's baby. "Waste, I can't look at individuals, what's the use of me raising you." Feng Chuanwu scolded and shouted at Sister-in-law Wu.

When he left in the morning, he deliberately explained to the soldier that the girl of the Shui family was not quite right in the past two days, and asked her to bask in the sun in the courtyard, but she just lay on the kang and did not move. Let her stay in the house safely, she stole her hands and feet, and grinded under the back wall of the south courtyard. "You pay more attention to me, don't know to sleep when you're full." After speaking, he was still not at ease, so he called Sister-in-law Wu again, and even scared and coerced him and said: "The boss has spoken, this winter is over, and the father and daughter of the Shui family will be free." Seeing Sister-in-law Wu's cold face, she said again: "I can't help it, if I don't speak for a day, I won't dare to let them go to the courtyard for a day, who made them the suspects of **." Listen, I'll hand over the three girls of the Shui family to you, if she spends this winter well, I'll reward you with a pair of bracelets, if you don't like it, I'll reward you with a mule. ”

didn't think about it, Shui Yingying still ran away.

Feng Chuanwu shouted for a long time before Sister-in-law Wu came out of the kitchen.

"What about the people, the ones I have given you?"

"Who?"

"The three girls of the Shui family, pretend to be confused again, I will kill you with one shot."

"Sleep in the house, sleep for a day." Sister-in-law Wu rubbed the face on her hands as she spoke.

Feng Chuanwu almost lost his breath. He sighed twice, and lifted the frightened soldier baby on the side: "What are you still doing in a daze, chasing it." ”

Soon, including the five sons and a few people with guns on their backs, they all followed Feng Chuanwu out of the courtyard. Watching their figures disappear into the sunset, Sister-in-law Wu scolded hatefully: "Chase, chase, chase your mother's heel." ”

After this day, no one ate the food cooked by Sister-in-law Wu, and she couldn't eat it. The few helpers left behind and two pharmacists, all of them squatted in the sunset with their arms crossed, and the monkeys were waiting for the sun to set. After the sun went down, they all sat in the backyard, staring at each other with big eyes and not saying a word, but their hearts were tighter than the other, for fear that they would not see what they should not see in the courtyard door. Sister-in-law Wu shouted a few times, except for Pharmacist Cao's buttocks, the others didn't move. It was finally dark, and the grass beach outside the courtyard was still as quiet as ever. Pharmacist Liu Xicai got up at this time, didn't say hello to anyone, and went to the South Courtyard alone.

Second Master Shui also didn't eat, and the meal brought by Sister-in-law Wu was repaid. He squatted on the kang head, holding an empty smoke pot in his hand, and the person was like a soul out of the body. Pharmacist Liu Xicai came in for a long time, but he ignored it. It wasn't until Sister-in-law Wu came in that he changed his posture and sat on the edge of the kang.

Second Master Shui's complexion has improved a lot, although it is dark at night, his face is clearly beating red. During these days, Sister-in-law Wu waited attentively, although eating and drinking was almost, but Sister-in-law Wu's words worked, as the saying goes, words are the key to happiness, and a shrewd person like the second master of Shangshui will not fail to understand Sister-in-law Wu's words. He finally figured out that his abuse of himself was tantamount to helping Feng Chuanwu, the silver was gone, the sheep were gone, and there was nothing, but he still had a breath. Sister-in-law Wu is right: "People take a breath of gambling, you toss yourself and lie down today, who is it?" I don't believe that the sky is always cloudy, and I don't believe that broken seedlings can't survive anymore? You haven't gone through anything, and when you get old, you're pretending to be a dead dog. ”

"I'm not a dead dog! When did my second water child be a dead dog, if I want to die, I have to bite a few to death before leaving! ”

That's it, he gritted his teeth, survived the days, and survived himself.

After being silent for a long time, the second master of the water said, "On the grass beach, there is no movement?" ”

"Nope." Sister-in-law Wu said.

"Listen to it, there's movement, give me a voice."

"Yes."

After speaking, Sister-in-law Wu turned around and came out, and the pharmacist Liu Xicai stayed for a while, and walked out again without saying a word.

For two days in a row, there was no movement on the grass beach, Shui Yingying didn't believe it, and she chased out to arrest people. The hearts of the people in the courtyard seem to have fallen to the ground a little.

Shui Yingying escaped with the help of Sister-in-law Wu. At noon, picking up grain and going down the mountain, the god mysteriously took out a rabbit from her arms, and Wu's sister-in-law took it, chopped it neatly, and threw it into the pot to fry. When the smell of meat wafted in the courtyard, Sister-in-law Wu walked out of the kitchen, went straight to the courtyard wall of the south courtyard, and shouted at the soldier: "Master Bing, follow me." Bingwa looked at her strangely, but didn't dare to move, and Sister-in-law Wu shouted again: "Come on, Master Bing, I'll take you to the kitchen." ”

As soon as she heard the kitchen, Bingwa's mind moved, and when she looked around, there was no one in the courtyard, and she walked quickly to the kitchen. Sister-in-law Wu lifted the lid of the pot, and the fragrant rabbit meat was so hungry that the soldier couldn't leave. Sister-in-law Wu took the opportunity to say: "Master Bing, this meat is fried by me especially for you, you eat it slowly and be careful of scalding." Before leaving the house, he said, "I will close the kitchen and be careful for outsiders to see." The soldier baby hummed while gnawing on the bones, and Sister-in-law Wu had arrived in the South Courtyard.

Shui Yingli put on the dog's clothes, picked up the backpack that had been prepared a long time ago, and walked out of the courtyard with the cat on his waist. As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, her steps were quick, and in a short time she was already under the ridge of the wolf crow's platform. There is a small cave there, which is sheltered from the rain by the people who herd their cattle on weekdays, Shui Yingying poured out the grass on the back basket, took out the burden under the bottom, and left with it. In the baggage, she ate all the way. This time, she didn't choose to go to Qingfeng Gorge, but bypassed the wolf and crow platform, crossed in front of her mother's grass show's grave, and then went along the zigzag ditch in the direction of Suci Ditch. Not far from the acid cigou, there is a temple, Shui Yingying calculates well, stays in the temple at night, and then turns over the Huangnigang, you can see a mountain road, along this mountain road, you can reach Pingyang River. As long as she arrives at Pingyang River, Shui Yingying will have a way.

Shui Yingying must escape, if nothing else, she wants to find the enemy!

It was he who brought the traditional Chinese medicine to Qingshiling, and it was he who brought the gun to Qingshiling, and it was he who brought the disaster to the Shui family! But he disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving the pain, the suffering, and the humiliation that was worse than killing the head to her and her father. Now, my father's leg is broken, and he can no longer be expected to return his innocence to the Shui family and bring peace. Go to the knife mountain or go down to the sea of fire, she goes!

These days, she hates, scolds, and scrapes with a knife in her heart, except for Feng Chuanwu, and then this enemy Jiayuan.

"I saw you go to the sky, I saw you go to the ground, even if I broke my legs, I want to find you!"

Shui Yingying arrived at Niangniang Temple in the evening of the next day, Niangniang Temple is the place where the barbarian women burn incense and kowtow on the first and fifteenth days of the new year, and it is located in the middle of the mountainside. After running for a day and a night, Shui Yingying couldn't run anymore and wanted to stay in Niangniang Temple for a night before leaving. Looking around, the mountains in winter are quiet, the Niangniang Temple is even quieter, she walked in boldly, and repeatedly encouraged herself in her heart, I am afraid, this is the temple, and the mother in the temple is not harmful.

The lady in the temple really doesn't hurt people, but it's the barbarian woman who harms people.

Who would have thought that Shui Yingying, the third lady of the Shui family, ran to Pingyang River, and the barbarian woman of Sucigou was blocked.

Shui Yingying later admitted that this was fate. Life is a piece of paper, it's up to you to write anything, the gods poke a hole, and mortals make up for it in their lives.

On the night when Shui Yingying, the third lady of the Shui family, tossed and turned in Niangniang Temple, Qiu Jiayuan, an adjutant who was far away in Xi'an City, also stayed awake all night. As soon as they had dinner, their superior, the army chief, urgently summoned them and reported them on the battle situation ahead. Nanning was lost, and Batang fell. Relying on their powerful sea power and aerial bombardment, the Japanese invaders drove straight into our territory, and the national army suffered heavy losses. Not only was there a shortage of medicinal materials at the front, but also the supply of ammunition and materials was seriously insufficient, especially the 46th Army, which had retreated from Nanning, was almost running out of ammunition and food, and was sitting and waiting to die, and the situation was quite critical. The army commander asked all the rear departments to go all out to collect supplies for the soldiers at the front.

"All of you are the pillars of the party-state, we can't be at ease because we are in a safe place, the national crisis is at the head, we should do our best to serve the country sincerely."

After the others left, the army commander was so worried that he muttered for a long time before saying that Yan Xishan attacked the second column of the Shanxi New Army in the area of Xixian and Xiaoyi with six troops, and the headquarters of the 196th Brigade of the second column was surrounded by the Yan army. The anti-Japanese regimes and anti-Japanese salvation groups such as Daning and Xixian were repeatedly destroyed, and many cadres of the Sacrifice League were killed, and the Jinxi Incident began.

"I don't understand, at the moment of the great enemy, why do my own family members still kill each other!" The Chief of War angrily slammed his pen on the table. It was evident that the situation was very uneasy and contradictory to him. Until now, Qiu Jiayuan didn't know the true identity of his boss, the army chief, and he never made it clear to himself. However, this did not prevent them from conspiring together to achieve great things, and the army commander did not care about him. Everything depends on mutual trust and a common heart of worrying about the country and the people.

"My friend over there is looking for me again, Line 2 is in urgent need of medicine, and I came to you just to sum it up and see if there is a new way." The Chief of War said again.

Line 2 is Yan'an. Since the accident in Qingshiling, there has been no medicine on Line 2, and there is no medicine. The medicinal materials of the National Army, which occupy most of the country, are so tight, presumably how difficult it must be for them. Qiu Jiayuan's heart became more and more gloomy, and the loss of Qingshiling was equivalent to cutting off the entire line of Gansu and even Xinjiang. As soon as he thought of this, Qiu Jiayuan hated himself to death.

Back at the residence, Qiu Jiayuan felt anxious and uneasy, as if many things had been put together, and his old mind was pouring out. Qiu Jiayuan secretly joined the Communist Party three years ago, and his communist enlightenment teacher was actually Li Kenong. At that time, he was already a capable general under the army commander, but he did not hesitate to make this choice. In several secret contacts with Li Kenong, he became more and more determined to devote himself to this great cause. In the vast land, whoever is in charge of the ups and downs, and the only one who can save the Chinese nation from the dire situation is the communist organization. It's just that, sometimes when I think about it, I feel sorry for the army commander who is dedicated to cultivating him. It wasn't until he was secretly sent to Liangzhou, and until the army commander secretly ordered him to send medicine to the second line, that this uneasiness was replaced by the ensuing hard struggle. He believed that whether the army commander was a member of the Communist Organization or not, he must have this great cause in his heart.

It's a pity that Rong Huaishan from Huangpu stared at them like a searchlight. After the accident at Qingshiling, he was urgently recalled by the army chief, and first took refuge in a secret residence in the suburbs of Xi'an for a period of time. The army commander was afraid of the death of the surname Rong, and he uncovered the matter of sending medicine to the second line. Fortunately, Hu Jiuning, the owner of the horse gang, was unyielding, and he did not admit to sending medicine for the enemy until he died. After Hu Jiu was tortured to death, the rumors seemed to be a little quieter, but the other person was still in their hands, and the army commander asked him to be ready to leave the country at any time. "Brother, you have to bear what you do, but you can't do it, so go to my hometown to grow medicine." The army commander's words were full of helplessness, because as long as He Shuyang confessed, his crime of colluding with the CCP would be ironclad, and the army commander could not protect him even if he wanted to.

It's strange that the one surnamed Rong didn't attack him for a long time, right? When he was restless, the army commander brought news that it was Pai Cha Jian, surnamed Rong, who had gone to Liangzhou, and ...... The army commander paused for a long time before saying Situ Xue'er's name. As soon as he heard Situ Xue'er, Qiu Jiayuan bounced up from the chair violently, and the army commander motioned for him to sit down: "Now is not the time for children to be in love, I don't care what happened to you and her, but she is now a celebrity around Rong Huaishan, send her to Liangzhou, Rong Huaishan has ulterior motives, you must not be emotional." ”

Qiu Jiayuan's heart fluttered for a long time, and the fire that had just been lit was helplessly extinguished, so he had to sit on the chair honestly and listen to the army commander finish speaking.

The army commander said that Situ Xue'er insisted on leaving He Shuyang in Liangzhou for her personal interrogation.

"It's not yet known what kind of medicine she sells in her gourd, but you and I have to prepare for the worst." After the army commander finished speaking, he glanced at Qiu Jiayuan meaningfully.

At this glance, the enemy was so far away that he was simply embarrassed.

The name Situ Xue'er, after a few years of disappearing, suddenly swept up in front of him like a distant wind, and Qiu Jiayuan felt that his firm steps were stumped by something.

A few days later, the army commander sent someone to pick him up, saying that the matter had passed for the time being, and that the purpose of the surname Rong was not to be people, and he was going to Qingshiling.

"Qingshiling can't be lost, and what we say must be controlled in our hands." Qiu Jiayuan was excited, and blurted out.

"How do you control it, do you want me to lead the troops to rob it?" The army commander stared at him with a little disappointment, "Don't forget, the surname Rong is deliberately letting you go, he doesn't want to fall out with me completely." Besides, what reason do you have to fight with him, do you want to jump out yourself and admit that you are not a member of the party-state? ”

The army commander said this, he understood the mystery of this, but as soon as he thought of the large area of traditional Chinese medicine and its unique location as a traffic fortress, he couldn't wait to immediately lead his troops to rush over and snatch back this treasure land from Situ Xue'er.

At present, Line 2 proposes to transport medicines, where does the medicine come from and how does it come over? He thought hard for a night, and the next morning, he went straight to the army commander and said, "I must go to Yan'an." ”

"Yan'an?" The War Commander stared at him in surprise.

"Yes. I have to meet someone, and only he can rekindle the fire of Qingshiling and transport the medicine of Qingshiling to Yan'an. Qiu Jiayuan said very excitedly, he didn't care about the identity of the army commander at all.

"Who?" The captain stared at him warily.

Qiu Jiayuan didn't want to hide it anymore and told this mysterious figure.

The sky was just dawning, and the morning light had not had time to sprinkle on the earth, and the footsteps of the five sons had already entered the house of the barbarian woman who called the eye official. Rush to find the barbarian woman at this early time, nine out of ten are for the time of fighting.

When you fight is to find someone, in the Qingfeng Gorge area, there has always been a custom of looking for a barbarian woman to fight, the family has lost people or livestock, you are looking for it, hurry up to find the barbarian woman, as long as the lost time is said, and then make a wish, the barbarian woman pinched and pinched, alive, can tell you the direction of finding, dead, can give you the location of the corpse. In this matter, after tying the fifth son, he ran to the sour cigou overnight, just to win the jackpot.

The fifth son is out of the way this time, anyway, he has become a villain, it is better to do it to the end, rather than letting the father and daughter of the Shui family slow down to clean him up, it is better to clean them up first while they are strong. Moreover, Feng Chuanwu personally made a wish to him, if he could catch Shui Yingying and come back, he would ensure that he would go to Liangzhou City to enjoy glory and wealth. Such a good thing, how can you miss it with five sons?

After listening to this, the barbarian woman who called the eye official pinched her hands, played the three-talent board, and sang: "Don't go to the east, don't go to the west, don't live in the south, don't die in the north, when you fight in the morning of the Qing Dynasty, you touch it when you go out." ”

When this is ringing, it is clearly dumb, and if you say it, you don't say it! The fifth son was just about to have a seizure, and suddenly saw the eyes of the barbarian who called the eye officer open angrily, and the corners of her mouth bulged, as if she was about to lose her mind. The fifth son hurriedly withdrew, and the barbarian woman was distracted, and the scene was very terrifying.

Tie Wuzi took two members of the medicine team and walked back, and on the way he scolded: "They all say that the eyes are gods, the gods are big, and they talk nonsense, who can't say this kind of words." After muttering a few words, as soon as I looked up, oh my God, Shui Yingying is really on the mountain road!

Shui Yingying came out of the temple when the sun shadow appeared, and at dawn she suddenly fell asleep, woke up from a nap, and saw that the sun had worn through the mountains, so she hurriedly dressed up and walked out. Not far out of the Niangniang Temple, I was looking around to identify the direction, and suddenly there was a sound of three boards behind me. "There are nobles on the road to heaven, evil ghosts squatting on the gate of hell, but tears are shed on the bridge, and the afterlife is cut off in the Yama Temple." Shui Yingying was just about to turn north, but the barbarian woman behind her pounced on her and grabbed her: "This Huo family, you are the Qingshiling Shui family, I see you have the morning sun above your head, and your feet on the morning road, it seems that you are going to a good road, but there is black smoke behind you, you can't go this way." As soon as Shui Yingying heard that she was recognized, she slapped her hand and said, "Who is your Huojia, go aside." When the barbarian woman heard this, she became more energetic: "Then I won't call you Huojia, I'll call you Third Miss." Third Miss, you have yin qi on your body, come to my room, and I will sweep it for you. ”

The sweeping of the barbarian woman is the eye, how can Shui Yingying have this time, and she will lose her temper at the barbarian woman in a hurry. The barbarian woman was not annoyed: "Third Miss, I have been to your house with the eye officer, look at your trend, and your face, something must have happened to your family, you should go to my house and sweep it." ”

"Go away!" Shui Yingying was so anxious that she was about to cry, how could she drag someone to her house in the middle of the road? She was afraid that if she was delayed, more people would find out. Who knew that the barbarian woman looked like she was dead and reasonable, as if she couldn't live if she didn't sweep her today. was entangled like this, footsteps sounded on the mountain road, and Shui Yingying wanted to run again, it would be too late.

When she was caught by the five sons, the wrinkled brute was still saying: "If you don't listen to your mother, you will suffer in front of you." ”

Tie Wuzi grabbed her hair fiercely: "God, eye officer, you are really a god!" ”

Shui Yingying was tied up and thrown into the cellar, which was the cellar where her father used to hide silver. Feng Chuan Wulang smiled and said, "No matter how great Sun Monkey's ability is, can he escape from the palm of my Buddha?" As he spoke, he gave the five sons a bottle of Liangzhou daughter red: "Go, hit a rabbit, Commander, I'm happy today, happy-"

The hearts of the people in the first courtyard were darkened, and they couldn't be darker anymore. The second master of the water beat his chest and paused: "God, you really don't want my Shui family to live, my second master of the water has never hurt people in my life, you have angry eyes, why can't you even tell the difference between people and ghosts?!" ”

The screams plunged the Shui family compound into deeper despair.

At night, an eerie rush came, and an ominous aura enveloped the entire courtyard, and even the big grass beach was bubbling with yin air. The second master of Shui's hiss and Feng Chuanwu's lewd laughter during the day have broken people's hearts several times, and this time, everyone held their breath, for fear that this dark night would bring something to Qingshiling.

But if it's coming, who can stop it?

As soon as it was dark, Feng Chuanwu went to the cellar, and he said to the fifth son: "Keep the door watched, if you let outsiders in, the blessing of your baby's life will come to an end." After a few cups of daughter red, half a rabbit filled his belly, Feng Chuanwu felt that his body was about to explode, and he couldn't delay for a minute. Besides, he has made up his mind not to delay, if he delays any longer, this dish will not only be uneatable, but will also cause him ** annoyance.

"Hehe, fifth aunt, water girl, you better be my fifth aunt-"

When a stick smashed into Feng Chuanwu's head, Shui Yingying's body was completely in Feng Chuanwu's arms. Shui Yingying has long lost the ability to resist, and now she has been tossed and tormented. Moreover, her hands and feet were tied, and the beast of the five sons was viciously tied up by her hair, and tied to the planks with strings.

It's over, and I can't hide anymore. Shui Yingying closed her eyes stiffly, and shouted in her heart, Mother, your Yingying is coming.

opened his eyes suddenly, and was surprised to see that Feng Chuanwu, who was pressed on his body, rolled down the plank, and the one standing with the stick was actually pharmacist Liu Xicai.

On this night, because of a series of unexpected actions by pharmacist Liu Xicai, the genius of the Shui family compound did not collapse. In the middle of the night, Feng Chuanwu woke up from a coma and learned that the pharmacist Liu Xicai took the grain and went to Liangzhou City overnight.

After eating at noon on the third day, Commissioner Zeng Zihang rode a tall horse and walked into the Shui family compound majestically. Before Feng Chuanwu could say hello, he was tied up by two soldiers with box guns. Zeng Zihang first entered Shui Yingying's bedroom, carefully and considerately inspected her injuries, and said, "It's all my fault for being careless, I didn't expect him to do such a thing." Then, let the doctor who came with him heal Shui Yingying's wounds. Shui Yingying held back tears in her eyes and stared at Zeng Zihang unfamiliarly, Zeng Zihang waved his hand decently, and someone brought in the prepared gifts. Commissioner Zeng Zihang's series of actions showed that he was an educated and well-educated man, and his gestures were even more heartwarming than Qiu Jiayuan, the adjutant of Xi'an City.

When Shui Yingying's bedroom came out, Zeng Zihang motioned to pharmacist Liu Xicai to lead the way, and he wanted to go to see Shui Erye. Regarding why the National Army wants to treat the father and daughter of the Shui family like this, Commissioner Zeng Zihang has never given a positive explanation to the pharmacist Liu Xicai, and the only thing he said on the road was: "There are some things you don't understand, you really don't understand, one day you become a commissioner, you may be worse than me." ”

Second Master Shui also received the same courtesy, and even Zeng Zihang cared about him a little more than Shui Yingying. However, Second Master Shui stiffened his eyes, and he didn't see the smile on Zeng Zihang's face and the meaningful eyes. Zeng Zihang's apology, he couldn't hear it. When people exited the house, he suddenly grabbed Liu Xicai's hand and grabbed it heavily with all his strength.

Pharmacist Liu Xicai accompanied Zeng Zihang to the upper room, Zeng Zihang motioned for all his subordinates to go away, and he wanted to talk to Pharmacist Liu alone.

To say, in this world, no one can see through another person, including those who have had a life-and-death relationship with you. Commissioner Zeng Zihang opened his heart this day, in fact, he also wanted to find someone to talk to these days.

"Brother, although you and I are both people who have gone through life and death, we have taken different paths. Can you settle down and be your pharmacist, but how about me? Zeng Zihang smiled, that smile was a little bitter, with the smell of wind and frost. They all say that I Zeng Zihang is a wicked person, greedy, and fartful, what money has I never seen Zeng Zihang? When I was young, I rolled in the pile of silver, thinking about my Zeng family's money, and I could buy Liangzhou City. But, there are some things you don't understand, you really don't understand. I, Zeng Zihang, are greedy now, so greedy that I can't even recognize myself. What if you are not greedy? Brother, you haven't been to the front line, you've been away from the team for some years, squatting in the shelter, safe. But you go to the front line to see, you go and see, that scene, you can't mention it! Do you still remember the 1st Infantry Division back then, I won't tell you, I just came back from there, miserable, the soldiers are dead, crippled, those who are missing arms and legs, lying in the crater waiting to die. Where is the medicine, where is the doctor? The son of a bitch, how many brothers have I killed! But if you look at the rear, look at Liangzhou, look at the Shui family, there is so much silver that you have to put it in the cellar, and the herds of horses are raised to look good, doesn't this make the Japanese laugh? I took all of their silver, but I didn't spend any of them! To tell you the truth, before I left this time, I sold all the old houses in my hometown, even my aunt's and wife's jewelry. I Zeng Zihang don't want to be famous, what I want is for the brothers to come back alive. Of course, there is one premise, that is, it cannot fall into the hands of **. I Zeng Zihang is holding the bowl of the party-state, receiving the favor of the party-state, the land under my feet is the party-state, and the surname Gong wants to take a silver dollar from Liangzhou, dreaming! ”

When Zeng Zihang said this, his eyes were moist, and his heart also rose and fell. Pharmacist Liu Xicai naturally didn't know that Zeng Zihang's seventy-eight-year-old father was tied to a tree and frozen to death at the beginning of the communist tide in his hometown, and someone vented his hatred for the Kuomintang on his father!

After saying this, pharmacist Liu Xicai suddenly lost his voice and became dumb. For a long time, pharmacist Liu Xicai was about to ask Zeng Zihang something, when he suddenly heard his words, which stunned Liu Xicai.

Zeng Zihang wants to take Shui Yingying away!

"This girl, it's a pity to stay in Qingshiling, you let her clean up, and tomorrow, come back with me."

"What?!" Pharmacist Liu Xicai couldn't believe that it was Zeng Zihang, who was full of infatuation just now, who said this.

"Don't stare at me like that, I said there are some things you don't understand, you're still not convinced, look, isn't this coming. Brother, people live in the world, who has their own way of living, and who has their own fun. To say that I'm not having fun with Zeng Zihang is. Who doesn't have fun? In my Zeng Zihang's life, nothing is unusual, just a rare woman! The three girls of the water family have personalities, I like them, you do the work. ”

"You ——?"

"Why, is it not true to say that I am a hypocrite, and that I am not as good as a beast? That's what's wrong with you, you have your medicine, what about me, I don't have anything. If I don't even have a woman, I'm alive, what's the point! ”

Pharmacist Liu Xicai was trapped, dazed, his fists were clenched tightly, and he could hit Zeng Zihang's face at any time. Zeng Zihang smiled, this time he smiled calmly, he glanced at Liu Xicai with treacherous eyes, and suddenly said in an absurd tone: "Do you still remember the celebrity Su Wanling who let your herbs kill back then, haha, they all said that she ran around with the teacher, who knows, she is the first woman in my life!" ”

"What?!" This time, pharmacist Liu Xicai was not just surprised.

For a long, long time, time seemed to move back in solidification, and the pharmacist Liu Xicai slowly raised his head and said word by word: "You can't take her away." ”

"Why?!"

"She already has a master."

"Joke!"

"I didn't lie to you, and this person, you must not bully."

"Who?"

"My righteous son."

"Yoshiko?"

"Pick up grain."

"What——?"

35

Shui Yingying didn't shake her head or nod, and the pharmacist Liu Xicai told her a lot more than before, and she heard a few words, asking her to marry Shiliang.

Pick up food.

God's joke is really big, the third lady of her Shui family is going to marry a subordinate, or Xigou to come to the Lu family to pick up grain. Ho ho, ho, Shui Yingying wanted to cry, but she couldn't. The tears have long since dried up and flowed out.

She raised her head, stared blankly at Liu Xicai, stared at it for a long time, and closed her eyes bitterly.

Pharmacist Liu Xicai walked out wordlessly.

The second master of Shui, who was waiting in the other room, couldn't bear it anymore: "What's the matter, what did she say?" ”

Pharmacist Liu Xicai didn't speak, and squatted down very heavily. Second Master Shui suddenly froze his face: "What's the matter, she doesn't follow?" ”

Second Master Shui had made up his mind, and as soon as pharmacist Liu Xicai said his thoughts, he immediately nodded in agreement. Second Master Shui naturally has the idea of Second Master Shui, not to mention that the Shui family is now in a disaster, just because of the food collected by pharmacist Liu Xicai, he is very excited. Oh my God, picking up grain, picking up grain, the second master of the water screamed several times, and he ran away with the bitter water in his stomach. Who is the grain picker? He is no longer the Xigou who saw his legs fighting and begged for food, and he is no longer the water nurse who sleeps in the grass shed to feed his horses, he is a pharmacist. From one day on, the second master of Qingshiling, the rich man Shui, decided that the honest and hard-working child of the Xigou Lai Lu family would definitely be a famous pharmacist in the future. This is providential, and no one can change it. Standing on the edge of the fertile ground of the Wolf Old Crow Terrace, Second Master Shui's heart was stirred up by this thought again and again, and at that time he thought that if he recruited the grain into the door, it would be a wonderful and pleasant thing.

Unexpectedly, a catastrophe turned this fantasy into reality!

"Hurry up!" This is a sentence he threw to pharmacist Liu Xicai. It seems that if you do it slowly, you will regret it when you pick up grain.

Unbeknownst to him, his daughter hesitated again. Shui Erye suddenly shouted: "When is this time, she still picks, does she have the time to pick?" It's a great blessing not to feed it to the wolf's mouth, she, she still wants to marry into the palace......" squatting and shouting was not enjoyable, he stood up, and his voice was higher: "No, I have to explain to her, I don't know what to do, skip the meat tong, I want to eat cold tofu!" ”

Pharmacist Liu Xicai grabbed Shui Erye, choked his throat and said, "Give the baby, leave some time, and force her." ”

Two days later, when Shui Er Ye went to see his daughter again, Shui Yingying nodded. Shui Erye was just about to be happy, Shui Yingying suddenly took a pair of scissors, and with a few clicks, she cut off her beautiful long hair. After that, she said to her Lao Tzu: "You owe the Lu family, I will pay it back for you." You keep this hair, and if I leave one day, you will have a thought. ”

Second Master Shui didn't understand at first, but when he understood, there were more than tears in his faint old eyes.

The date was finally set on the ninth day of the lunar month, this time I didn't look for a barbarian woman, the second master of the water set it himself. Commissioner Zeng Zihang wants to say that he is also a righteous person, since he can't rob the righteous son of pharmacist Liu Xicai, it is better to be a favor again and fulfill them. Before leaving, he said to Feng Chuanwu: "The marriage of these two is my matchmaker, if you dare to make something wrong, see how I clean you up." "How dare Feng Chuanwu, he really stole chickens and didn't fight back, and his director almost let him go.

As soon as the day was set, he returned to Xigou after picking up grain, this time it was not him who married someone, it was the Shui family who married him, plugged in the door, and became an old son-in-law.

Old-age son-in-law, he picks up grain to be an old-age son-in-law for the Shui family!

The one who came to Lu Xi caught the only old hen in the family and wanted to slaughter it. "It's a great event, it's a great event."

Picking up food was stuffy, and there was no expression on his face. From the moment Uncle Xicai and Shui Er Ye found him for a showdown, he became like this. I can't say joy, I can't say sadness. Like, it had nothing to do with him. The way to the road was obviously surprised by the great joy of the day, holding the chicken, so happy that he didn't know what to do. After a long time, he said: "Baby, Dad will kill the chickens for you, Dad will kill the chickens for you——"

When the chicken was killed and fried, neither father nor son ate it.

Picking up food was so confused that he couldn't eat it, and Shui Yingying's face flashed in his mind over and over again, it was a face that used to hang high in the clouds, and it was so extravagant to look at it. An unfamiliar voice flew from afar: "She really wants to marry me, is the third lady of the Shui family really willing to marry me?" ”

The way to the cave cutter was so excited that he couldn't eat it, his mind was finally not in vain, he was able to marry the Shui family, and the second half of the baby's life was relied on. He actually thanked Feng Chuanwu, if it weren't for this sudden shock, his family could have such a good thing?

The wedding was done gently, not lively at all, compared to the marriage of the first two women, this time, it was impossible to see that the Shui family was doing something. Even, it's not as lively as Bao'er's death and marriage. According to local customs, the Shui family should send a big red sedan chair to marry him. The cave cutter came and said, "Forget it, can you blow this scene right now?" When I said this, my mind was much clearer, and I was no longer as chaotic as I was when I first heard it. The second aunt at the bottom of the slope sewed a new set of clothes with coarse cloth overnight, and put it on the body of the grain picker, and it was so big that it was almost like a robe. The second aunt blushed and said, "If you don't move the needle and thread for a long time, you won't be sure under your hands." He looked at the left side of the road and said, "It's better to be bigger, the baby's body is still long, and it won't be too small in three or five years." The second aunt washed her own clothes again, and also turned out a set of clothes left by the man when he died, and put them on the way, and the two of them followed behind the grain very awkwardly, which was considered to be the mother's family.

was going to invite Lao Wumu, but Lao Wumu married the grass to the Shui family, and he will no longer be a matchmaker. At this time, his footsteps shuttled between the ditches and depressions, doing another business, asking who had herbs, and then selling the letter to Chaman'er, who lived in He's house, and begging for some broken honeysuckle. I thought about it, but finally gave up.

The housekeeper stood at the gate of the courtyard and greeted the three of them. On this day, the people in the courtyard did not go to work, and they were supposed to sweep the snow off the drying field and make room for drying medicine. President Bai didn't know where to get a few more truckloads of medicine, but because it was snowing continuously, the snow made Qingshiling completely cold, and drying the medicine became a very annoying thing. Feng Chuanwu squatted listlessly at the gate of the upper courtyard, he seemed to be more energetic than anyone else these days. Holding a gun, the fifth son looked at the three people who walked into the courtyard unwillingly, and saw the grain picker who was half a head shorter than him shrinking in his new clothes, and snorted mockingly in his nostrils.

Sister-in-law Wu and Liu Xicai ran back and forth, although things were simple, but the etiquette could not be messed up. Wearing a green robe, Shui Erye sat on a chair in the south courtyard and collected the heads of a pair of newcomers. Compared with when Bao'er married and picked up grass, Shui Er Ye became half a person, and the green robe was put on his body, as if he was wrapped in a sack. But his face was clear, unexpectedly clear.

The wedding didn't dare to alarm anyone, but Shui Erye wanted to alarm, and at first he didn't give up on giving a post to the four times, but was stopped by the housekeeper Lao Qitou and the pharmacist Liu Xicai. The old peg said: "Right now, all over the country and eight neighbors, which place is not made to go up the wall, who dares to come all the way to eat?" Pharmacist Liu Xicai also said: "Second master, it's not as good as before, just bear with it." Second Master Shui snorted unwillingly, but he finally adopted the suggestions of the two and did not publicize it again.

Donggou He's family was invited, and the housekeeper Lao Tou personally went to invite him, but unfortunately his steps did not enter He's house, and he was blocked by Cha Man'er's two guns outside the courtyard. The soldier carrying the gun looked disdainful: "Eat the table? Do you want me to report to Captain Cha and invite all the soldiers from Liangzhou City to your house? One sentence frightened the old man to turn around and leave, and his heart was still beating after returning to Qingshiling. However, Da Mei and his family heard it, after all, Donggou is close, even if they don't go out, they can hear it. Da Mei cried all night, and insisted on coming, saying that her father was pushing her sister into the fire pit, how could she be willing to be such a good person...... Before he finished speaking, he made the man snort: "The falling phoenix is not as good as a chicken, you don't understand this truth?" Da Mei was angry and scolded: "You have just fallen into the shelf." After scolding, who did you think about who the He family was, and who was the Shui family? Aren't the two families grasshoppers in the same river right now, and no one can flutter?

The enemy family of Pingyang Sichuan was invited by Xiao Wuzi, and the second master of Shui said at the beginning that it was so far that there was no one to send the post. Xiao Wuzi stood up and said, "I'll go." So he went, but the result was the same, no one from the enemy family came, and he couldn't come. Xiao Wuzi said that the Qiu family's business in Gulang County had a problem, and like last time, it was also looked at by others. Situ Xue'er said a word, and several shops of the enemy family were occupied by soldiers.

However, Xiao Wuzi brought a sentence from the second sister for Shui Yingying: "It's good to pick up grain, this door-to-door son-in-law is the right one." ”

Without Da Mei and Ermei, there is no way to talk about liveliness. Hou Yan deliberately made a noodle meal, which was already the best for the Shui family. The second master of the water looked at the boxes and cabinets, and all he could do was noodles. He sighed and said, "Roll out the noodles, take the oily mushrooms, put more chopped green onions, and let the fragrance overflow." But as soon as the rice was served on the table, the shouts of the second master came out.

"Are you having trouble with salt or with people, you taste it, is this rice?"

Sister-in-law Wu ran over in a panic, dipped her chopsticks in them, put them in her mouth and tasted them, and when she got on, she wrung her brows and pounced on the dog hiding in the corner of the kitchen: "Did you put salt on my back?" ”

The dog had a stiff face, and she didn't answer what Sister-in-law Wu asked. Since the day of the fight must have fallen, she has changed her method to oppose the people in the first courtyard, especially to Sister-in-law Wu and Liu Xicai, and she can't wait to put poison in their bowls. At this time, listening to the people in the courtyard shouting that the salt was dead and that he couldn't eat it, the corners of the dog's red and swollen eyes showed a trace of an unknown evil smile. Second Master Shui scolded a few times, picked up the bowl ruthlessly, and ate a bowl of salty and bitter noodles.

This night, the water tank in the courtyard of the Shui family became the target of everyone's scramble, Sister-in-law Wu guarded the stove to boil water, how could she be in time, and the fire in the middle made the dog deliberately take water to extinguish it, causing the pharmacist Liu Xicai to help Sister-in-law Wu chop wood in the middle of the night. In the noise of everyone, the dog squatted under the wall of the south courtyard, crying, crying, laughing, and his mouth was more ugly than crying.

In the new house, a couple of newlyweds sat at a great distance, and after everyone retreated, the new house was shrouded in silence. Both of them thought it was a dream, but it didn't feel like a dream. But no matter what, I can't connect the other party with myself. It wasn't until dawn that Shui Yingying said: "People are married to you, but your body can't help you, do you understand my words?" ”

I didn't understand the grain, but I still flushed the water Yingying nodded.

On the same night, something happened in Qingfeng Gorge.

The assassination team attacked the He family's compound. In the second half of the night, when the assassination team crossed into the He family's compound, the entire He Mansion fell into a snoring sound, and even He Dajuan, who was plagued by insomnia in the long winter, was confused this night. The people of the assassination team divided into two ways, one way, straight to the backyard where Cha Man'er lived, and all the way, to the upper courtyard where the He family's father and son lived. If it weren't for Da Mei, I'm afraid that the entire He Mansion would have to let the assassination team clean up.

Da Mei still can't figure it out, what a good sister, unexpectedly, unexpectedly...... Da Mei hates his father in his heart, why is he really ruthless to recruit a son-in-law for his sister, even if he does, it is better to tie up his five sons than to collect grain. In her hatred, she remembered what the fifth son had told her, this baby has a sister in her heart, but it is a pity that the Lu family took advantage of it. In the other heart, I sighed for what happened to my father and sister.

Da Mei cried alone in the cold night, and waited until all the people in the courtyard fell asleep and her father-in-law was silent, and then she returned to the house in a gloomy land. The man He Shuhuai has become a traitor in the family, and he has become a nerd, except for carrying a basket to the house all day long to collect cow dung, and there is no other way to save himself. The word "traitor" discredited the He family, walking in the village alley, someone spit on you in the cold, this is not counting, come together in the morning, the courtyard door is full of cow dung, Donggou people pay tribute to them in this vicious way, He Shuhuai swore to pick up all the cow dung in the whole ditch, and no one will smear on the door of his house again.

Da Mei smashed the man with her elbow, wanting him to talk to her, although the man stinked her and said mean things like "the phoenix is not as good as the chicken", she still wanted the man to accompany her to talk. Unexpectedly, He Shuhuai threw out a sentence: "My heart is itchy again, no, if it's itchy, go if it's itchy, your water house is clean, not as dirty as my He family." In a word, Da Mei hugged her arms and shed tears for half the night. As soon as I put my head on the pillow, I heard a noise in the courtyard in a daze, although it was very light, but it was clearly a strange footsteps. Da Mei jumped off the kang with a jumper, and she didn't care about putting on her shoes, so she threw herself out, who knew that the door hit the outside and died, and she didn't open it for a long time, Da Mei let go of her throat and shouted as if she was dead.

The five soldiers sleeping in the backyard were all dead, strangled with straw ropes, because of the difficulty of falling from the air, five long tongues spit out, blood red and blood-red, and they could kill a person. On each person's chest, a piece of paper was pasted on it, on which it was written: The suppression of revolutionaries will not end well. The payment is Gada.

On the father-in-law He Dajuan's side, it was even more shocking. The members of the assassination team got him out of the house, stripped him naked, tied him to a poplar tree in the courtyard, and hung a string of dried cow dung around his neck, and pasted a piece of paper on his face, which read: If the traitor is not eliminated for a day, the assassination will not end for a day.

To the disappointment of the assassination team, Cha Man'er, who they were bent on getting rid of, actually escaped this time, Cha Man'er asked Situ Xue'er to recall him yesterday, and the people of the assassination team didn't get the news.

The first person to run into the He family's compound was actually Lao Wumu, and when he saw the scene, he was shocked and shouted: "Oh no, the He family was killed by the sky, come and see, the He family let the sky be destroyed." His scream made He Dayu, who was half frozen to death, roll his eyes. Then, the courtyard of the He family was surrounded by people watching the excitement, three layers inside and three layers outside, and people all looked at the scene with one look. Da Mei shouted loudly, but no one was willing to stand up to help her.

When Cha Man'er heard the news, it was already another night, and when he saw the five corpses wrapped in rags in the backyard, Cha Man'er's gunfire shook Qingfeng Gorge.

The way of the cave slasher was also lost, and he couldn't find it, and the five corpses lay in the courtyard for two more days, but they still couldn't find anyone to cut the hole. In the end, Cha Man'er pointed to the father and son of the He family and said, "You are not human, go and behead!" He Da Juan was just about to raise his neck to refute, but Cha Man'er said: "It's okay if you don't cut it, then let the corpse stop, I want to see who can survive whom!" ”

In the east ditch, on the snow, the father and son of the He family took shovels and pickaxes, carried two baskets of dry cow dung for heating, and went to the grave beach crying step by step.

Another snow fell silently, filling the sky.

The sister river, which has long been frozen, presents a different scenery in the snow, like a wild dragon that does not admit defeat, dazzlingly stretching to the end of the sky.

In the courtyard of the Shui family, he got up early to collect grain, silently walked into the backyard, lifted a broom, and cleared the snow in the yard. When the fifth son heard the sound, he poked his head out of the house, and when he saw that he was collecting grain, he retracted his head again and retracted it into the hot quilt. Picking up food and marrying Yingying, in addition to the dog's disgruntle, the five sons are also resentful. The fifth son thought that if he couldn't live three days with Shui Yingying, he would be driven out of the cave by Shui Yingying, but he didn't think that Shui Yingying suddenly looked like a well-behaved and obedient little daughter-in-law after marriage, not only good for picking up grain, but also better for the people in the courtyard. As soon as he walked over, Shui Yingying put away the smile on her face, changed her cold face, and said to Xiao Wuzi on the side: "Xiao Wuzi, take the rest of the few to the dog to eat, my Shui family can't raise anything, and the old yellow dog still knows the owner's good." ”

Xiao Wuzi is also ruthless every day, so he really took the red dates away and poured them to the big yellow dog. The five sons are ashamed, and they really want to raise their guns and shoot them in the face one by one!

was innocent and cold, and tied the five sons to the quilt again.

Collecting grain, he swept the snow from the backyard into piles and went into the stables. What a madman, a marriage got so bad in his head. This is a sentence that Feng Chuanwu said to Feng Chuanwu, and Feng Chuanwu also thinks so. After the marriage, he suddenly became obsessed with the stable, which made Feng Chuanwu and the others puzzled, so they had to think that he had a problem with marriage. There were no horses in the stable, not even a donkey, and the old pimple of the water boss in Wanzhong Tai was brought back by the water boss before the snow fell, and the entire stable seemed empty. From the second morning after the wedding, his footsteps were the first to come to the stable, first to sweep the stable twice, then to sprinkle water, and then, as before, take a comb, comb the horse's mane one by one, his combing appearance is funny and strange, has provoked people to surround him, even the dog who does not look at him properly after marriage, was also amused by him a laugh. But he didn't feel that he was combing very carefully, as if the horse was right in front of him. He combed and combed, repeated the original lesson, then took up the basket, carried the grass in the trough to the straw shed, and then carried the new grass and added it carefully. And so on and so forth.

On this cold and snowy morning, Zhao son-in-law picked up grain and began to comb the horse's mane again. Sister-in-law Wu walked into the backyard with her arms in her arms, saw his hands dancing in the air, and said worriedly: "Grain, don't sweep it, go back to the house." ”

Picking up grain can't be heard, the position he swept was previously tied to Yingying's mount Mountain Wind. Sister-in-law Wu stood for a while, and then went out. It didn't take much effort, Shui Erye came to the backyard with a lame leg, stared at the grain seriously and carefully, and looked at it, Shui Erye had a smile on his face.

In the south courtyard, Shui Yingying also got up, and she screamed at the white snow in her eyes, and this time, the snow smiled at her. After marriage, Shui Yingying changed the past problem of wearing whatever she wanted, she locked her horse clothes and Tibetan robes into the box, and according to the habits in the gorge, she honestly wore a small red cotton jacket with a placket, and a pair of loose green cloth pants, which were wrapped in silk cotton pants made by Sister-in-law Wu before marriage. She hid her shortened hair in a water-red turban, and also hid her daughter's elegance and shyness in the turban. After getting married, Shui Yingying presided over the affairs of the family like a housewife, she had to worry about the kitchen, the backyard, and the eating and drinking of her father in the upper courtyard, including what the people ate at every meal, and she also had the final say. If anyone dares to mess around behind her back, a few ugly curses will pop out of her mouth at any time. From marriage to now, dogs have been scolded the most, and Sister-in-law Wu has also been scolded a few times. She repeatedly said that she would serve her father's meal in the future, but Sister-in-law Wu always couldn't remember, every time the meal was ready, she was like she had brought a bowl to the room, and as a result, she was scolded viciously: "You are a pig's brain, you can't remember the things that have been settled?" ”

Now, Sister-in-law Wu has memorized these words firmly, and without the promise of the bride Shui Yingying, she would not dare to go to the upper courtyard.

The bride, Shui Yingying, was distracted by the endless snow, stretched out her arms, kicked her legs, walked straight over, picked up a broom, and began to sweep the snow. The white snow, the red people, and the pink and tender faces suddenly made the southern courtyard bewitching.
