Chapter 232 Avoiding Disaster

Aunt Zhang closed the door, put the oil lamp on the stove, and asked Brother Zhang, "What's wrong with you?" One by one, they lost their souls, as if they had lost their souls? ”。

Brother Zhang didn't speak, he scooped a scoop of cold water, tilted his neck, and drank it in one go! Then wiped his mouth and briefly told Aunt Zhang what we had happened today! Aunt Zhang and Hei Ni were so shocked when they heard it that they didn't dare to speak out for a long time!

Brother Zhang said to Aunt Zhang: "You brand me a few flatbreads, and I'll take them to eat on the way!" ”。

Aunt Zhang wiped her tears and said, "What kind of sin is this, you are in charge...... Where are you going to hide? ”。

Brother Zhang sighed and said, "I don't know, let's take one step at a time!" ”。

I then said to Brother Zhang, "Old Zhang, if you have nowhere to go, come back to Beijing with me!" ”。

Brother Zhang shook his head and said, "I'm a countryman, what are I doing in Beijing with you?" Besides, even if I go to Beijing with you, what will I do for a living? ”。

I said, "You don't have to worry about this, but I won't make you hungry if I eat a bite!" Wouldn't it be better for you to come back after you have escaped this gust of limelight? ”。

Aunt Zhang also echoed and said: "It's still so good, it's still so good!" With you and him together, I feel a little more down-to-earth in my heart! ”。

I comforted Aunt Zhang and told him not to worry, the people of the Drill Gang didn't know that we had escaped from the general's grave, and even if they heard the news in the future, it would not be so easy to find us again!

Aunt Zhang pressed her chest, and recited Amitabha Buddha vigorously, saying that this time thanks to the blessing of the Buddha, you can be safe and sound, and I will go to the temple to incense, and ask the Bodhisattva to bless you all the way safe, no illness or disaster!

Brother Zhang also instructed Aunt Zhang and Hei Ni to tell them not to tell us about our escape, and the province has recruited the Drill Gang! Aunt Zhang and Hei Ni hurriedly nodded in agreement, and then Aunt Zhang and Hei Ni made a fire and noodles and baked a flatbread!

After discussing with Brother Zhang for a while, we decided to take advantage of the darkness to rush to Chaling first, and then take the small road to Lingling, from Lingling to Shanghai by boat, everything will be easy to do when we arrive in Shanghai! I wasn't very familiar with the roads in their area, and I listened to what Brother Zhang said, so I agreed to his arrangement!

Then Brother Zhang wanted to bring Hei Ni with him, saying that there are many places where you need to show your face along the way, and with Hei Ni following us, many things will be much easier to do! I was a little hesitant, and when Brother Zhang saw that I didn't agree, he persuaded me: "I'm really not at ease to leave Hei Ni at home alone, besides, what did you tell me in the general's grave?" You won't forget it so quickly, right? ”。

I blushed and said, "You can bring it with you, and you still come to ask me what I am doing?" ”。

Brother Zhang laughed and said, "Yes! That's what it looks like! ”。

Brother Zhang did this big thing, and immediately walked into the kitchen with a red face, smiling and squinting at Hei Ni Zhile! Hei Ni was inexplicably looked at by her father, kneading the dough in her hand, and asked her father, "Dad, what are you doing?" ”。

Brother Zhang asked Hei Ni, "Would you like to go with us?" ”。

Hei Ni was stunned, stopped what she was doing, and said, "Dad, what nonsense are you talking about?" I'm going to leave with you, what will happen at home? ”。

Brother Zhang pursed his lips unhappily and said, "We don't have you in our family, and your mother!" I'll just ask you if you want to! ”。

Hei Ni raised her little red face, nodded solemnly at her father, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Yes!" ”。

Brother Zhang slapped his thigh and said, "Isn't this the end?" When you're done baking flatbread, go inside and pack up your things, and remember to bring extra clothes! ”。

I reminded her, "You can just take a few clothes to replace, and it's not too late for us to buy them when we get to Shanghai!" ”。

Brother Zhang shook his head like a wave drum and said, "No, no, no!" I can't wear all the clothes at home, and I have to go outside to buy them? Isn't that a loser? As the saying goes, if you can't eat or wear, you won't be poor, and if you can't calculate, you will be poor......! ”。 When Brother Zhang said this, he still wanted to go on, but Hei Ni said coquettishly: "Dad, don't talk about it, how can I have any good clothes?" Look at what you said, it seems that our family is a rich man! ”。

Brother Zhang's eyes widened, and he said: "Although our family is not a rich man, but it is also one of the largest families in Zhengjia Village. Didn't you save this family business by falling a bead of sweat on the ground and breaking into eight petals? ”。

Hei Ni pouted and said unconvinced: "Grandpa, he worked hard, but he didn't rely on that amount of money to buy mules and horses and start selling salt for a living?" If we only rely on selling coolies to earn grain, how can our family have such a large pack team? ”。

When Hei Ni said this, Brother Zhang slapped his thigh and shouted, "Oops! How did I forget about it? ”。

Hei Ni was startled and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?" Shocked, can scare people to death! ”。

Brother Zhang smacked his lips, sighed and said, "That big yellow horse in our family, let the hammer help those bastards snatch ......!" ”。

Hei Ni comforted her father and said, "Father, don't be reluctant to give up the horses, as long as you are old and all the tails, even if they take the horses away, what is it?" ”。 Unexpectedly, Hei Ni's words attracted a scolding from Brother Zhang! I persuaded Brother Zhang and said that Hei Ni was also out of filial piety! Brother Zhang was angry, turned his head and said to me: "Brother, you don't know, those horses are the family foundation that the three generations of our old Zhang family ancestors and grandchildren have saved with great difficulty, and this dead girl will pay me out as soon as she touches her mouth, do you think I can not be anxious with her?" ”。

Hei Ni shouted: "Father, your horses are all tethered in the backyard except for rhubarb, and you are throwing the evil fire at me?" ”。 After saying that, her eyes turned red, turned around and ran into the inner room!

Aunt Zhang wiped a handful of sweat beads from her forehead and said to Brother Zhang: "Look, look, this woman is not staying, and staying here is a revenge!" I look at you, you shouldn't take her with you, you said that a big girl's family, follow you two big men, what's going on? Besides, after you leave, I'll be the only one left in this house, how can I be busy here and outside? ”。

Brother Zhang knew what his wife was going to say, so he sank his face and didn't say anything! Aunt Zhang saw that her husband pulled down her old face, and she was not to be outdone: "Even if you are unhappy, I have to say that the lame carpenter in our village has come several times and said a lot of good things, he said that he took a fancy to our family's Heini and promised to give our family five mules and horses as a dowry, should you give a word?" ”。

Brother Zhang glanced at his wife and said, "Then how did you sum it up?" ”。

Aunt Zhang saw that Brother Zhang still had an old face, she didn't know the bottom of her heart, and said hesitantly: "I...... That's what I think, you think, you don't know when you're going to come back! Even if she really comes back in the future, Hei Ni's marriage will be delayed! ”。

Brother Zhang asked indifferently: "So what about ......?" ”。

Aunt Zhang said in fear: "I think, it's better to agree to the lame carpenter, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, if he marries our family's Heini, he will be our family's son-in-law, once there is something in the family, he can also help, right?" ”。

After Aunt Zhang said this, Brother Zhang's face turned black, and even his nose was crooked! Brother Zhang pouted his teeth like a toothache and asked Aunt Zhang, "Where did the eldest and second go?" ”。

Aunt Zhang was frightened and said, "I'm out drinking!" ”。

Brother Zhang then asked, "Whose house did you drink?" ”。

Aunt Zhang whispered, "It seems to be ...... It looks like I'm going to a lame carpenter's house! ”。

Brother Zhang sneered: "As the saying goes, take other people's hands and eat other people's soft mouths, no wonder their brothers say good things about lame carpenters all day long, it turns out that this is the case!" Wife, shouldn't you also take his benefits! ”。

Brother Zhang's eyes were firmly fixed on Aunt Zhang, and Aunt Zhang stammered, "Dead old man, what do you say?" I'm Heinie's mother! ”。

Brother Zhang smiled and said, "Then where did that roll of silk in the cabinet come from?" ”。

Aunt Zhang made a big red face and defended: "That's ...... Is that......! ”。

Brother Zhang waved his hand and said, "Don't say it, Hei Ni must be taken away this time!" We went out this time, I don't know when I will be able to come back, I am already old, and I can't be without someone to serve me along the way, you take Dabao at home, even if it is a contribution to our old Zhang family! ”。

When Aunt Zhang saw her husband say this, she couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes! She gave Brother Zhang a whole collar of his clothes, and said: "After you go out, you must take care of your body, remember to fill in more clothes when it's cold, I'm not by your side, remember to let Hei Ni hammer your legs every day!" ”。

Brother Zhang said with a sad expression: "I know, I know, after I leave, you have to take care of your home!" ”。

The two were silent for a while, and Brother Zhang seemed to remember something again, and he instructed Aunt Zhang: "After I leave, if the people in the village inquire about my whereabouts, you can tell them that you don't know anything, don't say anything!" ”。

Aunt Zhang nodded in agreement, and Brother Zhang added: "When those two little rabbits come back, don't tell them!" If they ask where Heini is, tell them that Heini went to his grandmother's house! ”。

Brother Zhang grabbed Aunt Zhang's shoulders, stroked her hair bun and sighed: "Time flies so fast, you are also old!" ”。

Aunt Zhang leaned on Brother Zhang's shoulder, blushed and said, "Yes, time flies so fast, it's been almost twenty years in the blink of an eye, and you can see that my sideburns have turned white......!" ”。

Brother Zhang stroked his wife's sideburns and said lovingly, "Yes, where has the time gone?" I remember when you married me, you were like a scared kitten! ”。

Aunt Zhang asked sweetly, "What does it look like now?" ”。

Brother Zhang suddenly smiled slyly and said, "Now? It's like a water tank! ”。

Aunt Zhang pretended to slap her face and said, "Okay, you dare to make fun of my ......!" ”。

As soon as I entered the inner room, I saw Hei Ni with red eyes and was about to go to the kitchen, so I took her arm and whispered to her, "Don't go over yet!" ”。
