Chapter 234: You Compensate Me for Sweet Potatoes

was bitten by the second dog and bitten his hand painfully, if Gong Jichang hadn't thought that he was his brother-in-law, he would have slapped him to the ground, and the little kid bit for no reason, is it crazy?

Little Peach was so anxious that she picked up a bamboo branch from the ground and shouted, "Three dogs, what are you doing?" If you don't let go, my sister is going to beat your ass! ”

Sangouzi glanced at his sister Xiao Taohong with his eyes, his eyes were full of blood, and he didn't pay attention to her warning, but bit Gong Jichang's arm harder, until the bite blood came, and there was still no sign of letting go.

Being bitten by a child on the skin is nothing compared to a knife wound and a gunshot wound. Gong Jichang's arm was bleeding, he couldn't help but shout, but smiled bitterly at Xiao Taohong: "Is the three dogs frightened?" ”

"Husband, I haven't been home for almost a year, I don't know." Little Pink shook her head.

The eldest sister Xia He saw that her "brother-in-law" was bitten so hard by the three dogs, she didn't cry out in pain, she couldn't help but admire, she grabbed the ears of the three dogs with both hands: "Three dogs, how can you bite your brother-in-law casually?" ”

It may be that Xia He's words reminded the three dogs who were a little ignorant, he rolled his eyes, looked up at Gong Jichang's clothes, shoes, and saber, and did not find the "blue wolf head" pattern, so he let go of his mouth, blushed and said, "Big brother, I didn't mean to ......"

Gong Jichang put the bleeding arm in front of his eyes and looked at it, there were a few deep tooth marks on it, and smiled: "Three dogs, why are you biting me?" ”

"Big brother, I'm ......" After the three dogs finished speaking, they quickly entered the thatched house, grabbed a handful of black pot ashes, hurriedly ran to Gong Jichang's side, grabbed his arm, and was about to sprinkle it on the wound that was still oozing blood.

Little Peach stopped the three dogs: "Who told you to stop the bleeding with pot ashes?" ”

"My mother told me." The three dogs smirked.

"Oh. You go and call your mother back, and say that you have a distinguished guest at home. Little Peach put down the bamboo branch in her hand.

The second dog drooped his head: "Sister, I won't go, I'm afraid that there will be long-haired ...... on the mountain."

"Ergouzi, how can there be long hair in this broad daylight?" Gong Jichang felt very strange.

In the ninth year of Xiantong, the blue wolf army in Wuyou County had already been wiped out, where were the traitors? In this poor ravine, even if there is long hair, they hide in the mountains, and they are starved to death. Hey, no, the three dogs are so afraid of the blue wolf army, could it be that the blue wolf army brought by Wang Haiyang has come to Longxipu?

"Big brother, half a month ago, dozens of blue wolf troops armed with big swords and spears broke into our village, robbed a lot of food, and captured some powerful adults." Ergouzi said, "The only bag of rice in my house was also snatched, and when I bit the long hair that grabbed something, he kicked me into the ditch......

"If there's such a thing, then it's okay!" Gong Jichang shouted, "Little Peach, who is in your village?" ”

"Husband, I've been running outside all year round, I don't know who it is." Little Pink shook her head.

Four households are neighbors, five households are safe, and one hundred households are li, and each li is one lizheng, that is, one mile long, responsible for investigating household registration, purchasing agricultural mulberry, inspecting violations and collecting taxes. Li Zheng belonged to the officials who did not enter the stream, and were supported by the local treasury. There is no power to manage the local armed forces, so once the thieves enter the village and harass the people, they can only spontaneously organize people to make weak resistance.

Longxipu Village, with a population of four or five hundred, was unable to fight the armed men, so they could only watch their family's money and belongings being robbed. Xiao Taohong's family is very poor, and the old couple of the Luo family basically work for the landlord's family for a long time, and after a year of hard work, they still can't solve the problem of food and clothing for the family.

"Brother-in-law, it's useless to ask Lizheng." Xia He said, "Sister Dongyu and I went up the mountain to call my father and mother back. ”

"Hmm. Be careful. Little Pink nodded.

"Got it." The eldest sister Xia He took her younger sister Dongyu and ran to Houlongshan.

The second sister Qiuyue took Xiao Taohong's hand and said with a smile: "Sister, you and your brother-in-law go into the house to sit down." ”

Little Pink asked, "Okay." Do you have anything to eat at home? ”

"Sister, the family is so poor, how can there be anything to eat." Qiu Yue responded, "Yesterday, my mother picked a little raspberry, and there are still some left." ”

"Oh. That's good. Gong Lang, let's go into the house and have a look. Little Pink said.

"Little lady, you wait." Gong Jichang unloaded his luggage from the horse, and then carried a heavy bag of silver to Xiao Taohong's side.

"Gong Lang, do you give all this money to my father?" Little Pink smiled.

"Hmm. This silver is a gift for my parents. Gong Jichang nodded.

"Will you continue to give my father money in the future?" Little Pink took the bag of silver.

"I'll talk about it later. All these silver are my possessions. Gong Jichang said with a smile.

"Wouldn't it? You are the chief military officer of the imperial court, and you have an income of one or two thousand taels of silver a year. Little Pink said.

"Little lady, I have been a general soldier for less than a year. Besides, the rewards of the imperial court are all distributed to the brothers......" Gong Jichang shrugged.

"Oh. I see. How much is this silver? ”

"It cost you a little bit to buy clothes, maybe more than nine hundred taels."

"That's a lot. My father worked for the landlord Lao Cai for a year, and he got about eleven or twenty taels. With this money, my younger siblings don't have to go hungry and cold. ”

"Oh, really?"

"Hmm. Husband, I think it's enough for you to give my dad 800 taels, and we have to keep a little bit of money. ”

"Let's give it all to my father and mother first."

"Okay." ……

So, a few people went into the house, and there were only three rooms in the black and dark winter, all of which were separated by bamboo strips. The ground is very angry, and the soles of your feet are covered with black mud when you step on it, and there is a layer of green moss in some places, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will fall to the ground, how can you live in such a house?

On the edge of the fire pit, there were several long benches, which were covered with a thick layer of white firewood ash, and it was impossible to sit at all. Qiu Yue brushed the stool with her sleeve, and then wiped her cheeks with her sleeve, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, sister, you two sit down." ”

"Hmm." Gong Jichang looked at Qiuyue, "Little sister, it's all here, are you going to make lunch?" ”

"Brother-in-law, there is not much food at home, we usually don't eat rice at noon, either roasted sweet potatoes, or boiled sweet potatoes, or buckwheat cake to fill our stomachs......" Qiu Yue took a wooden stick and dug out a roasted sweet potato from the ashes of the grass and trees.

Maybe she was too hungry, Qiu Yue put the roasted sweet potato on the stool, slapped it a few times, then peeled it and gnawed it in a big gulp, not caring about her brother Sangouzi.

"Third sister, I want to eat ...... too" Sangouzi said drooling, looking at the half-roasted sweet potato in Qiu Yue's hand.

"Three dogs, you want to eat, but you don't know how to get it yourself!" Akizuki twisted her body to the side.

The three dogs sat down next to Qiuyue again: "Third sister, I'm afraid of burning my hands." ”

"I really can't help you, here you go!" Qiu Yue gave the half of the roasted sweet potato in her hand to Sangouzi, and then dug out two roasted sweet potatoes from the fire pit and gave one to Xiao Taohong and Gong Jichang.

Gong Jichang took the roasted sweet potato, looked at it carefully, and found that the sweet potatoes were burned to charcoal, and pressed it with his hand, feeling that only the heart in the middle was left.

He removed the skin of the sweet potato and handed it to Little Pink: "Little lady, you can eat first." ”

Xiao Taohong pushed Gong Jichang's hand: "Gong Lang, I'm tired of eating sweet potatoes, you still give it to Sangouzi, he likes to eat it." ”

"Okay." Gong Jichang handed the roasted sweet potato to the three dogs again.

Who knows, Qiu Yue's eyes are quick, and she snatched the roasted sweet potato: "Brother-in-law, I want to eat it too." ”

She did it on purpose, she was going to make three dogs. Because Sangouzi is too selfish, what is delicious, he never knows how to share it with a few sisters, and most of the time he hides and eats alone. If the thing is rotten and moldy, the three dogs will throw it away and will not give it to the sisters.

Xiao Taohong reached out to snatch the sweet potato in Qiu Yue's hand: "Qiu Yue, you are a young lady, you have to let your brother order." ”

Qiu Yue muttered, swallowing the roasted sweet potato in one bite: "I don't!" If there is anything delicious at home, the three dogs eat half alone, and our three sisters share half. Yours for my brother......"

The three dogs had no choice but to touch their belly, pick up their clothes, and their ribs were exposed one by one, which was clearly visible: "Sister, I'm hungry ......"

Xiao Taohong saw that her brother was soft, and almost burst into tears, and gave the peeled sweet potato in her hand: "Come, you take it-"

"It's better to be the eldest sister." The three dogs kissed the little peach on the face softly, and then ran out of the thatched house with the roasted sweet potato.

As soon as he got out of the thatched house, the three dogs bumped into Xia He, who was about to enter the house, and the sweet potato in his hand fell to the ground, covered with dust, and it seemed that he couldn't eat it.

"Second sister, you pay me sweet potatoesβ€”" The third dog shouted.

Xia He didn't speak, bent down, picked up the sweet potato, rinsed it several times under the bamboo pipe, then took it in his hand, carefully walked to Sangouzi's side, and stuffed it to him: "It's all sister who is not funny, take it." ”

The three dogs had a great temper, threw the watery sweet potato on the ground, and stepped on it a few times: "It's dirty, you can't eat it!" ”

"Three dogs, you-" Xia He slapped over, just hitting the nose of the three dogs, and immediately the nose bled out.

Now it's a big deal! The three dogs, who had been pampered since childhood, fell to the ground, kicked their hands and feet, and kept rolling, making their bodies full of dust, and he was crying and screaming while rolling, and the terrible sound spread all over the hills. This kid is too willful, he is so cheating for a roasted sweet potato!
