Volume 1 The Years in the Mountain City Chapter 118 The Peach Blossom Creek Flows, Birds and Fish Have Different Paths

There is such a planet in the endless starry sky. Except that it is larger, it is almost exactly the same as the blue earth, and even the names of the people and the stories that happened on it are almost the same, separated by trillions of light years, but it is like a projection of the blue planet, it is really a vast world, mysterious and mysterious.

A small town in the south of Huaxia, located in the mountains, is said to be more than 200 years ago, the three major surnames of the people in the south of the Yangtze River - Li, Liang and Lingju moved here. Later, it moved into several other surnames - Wu, Xu, Xu, and Luo, thus forming a small mountain town of more than 70,000 people today.

The surname Li is the first surname in the town, and the surname Ling is the second, so most of the time, intermarriage is carried out between the two surnames.

The sun rises and sets, the town is closed, people work hard, and the poor but contented life has been lived for generations. But I don't know when it began, Ling Luo didn't get married, Liang Xu didn't communicate, but it existed in the first teaching of each of the four surnames when they were children.

Ling Lang's family lives in Qianshang Village, the name of the village is rich and noble, but the living standard of the villagers is ordinary in the town. His mother's surname is Li, and his maternal great-grandmother's surname is Xu. The topography of the mountain city is a basin, the Ling family is at the top of the town, the Li family is in the middle, and the Xu family is at the lowest part of the basin. The three families are not connected to the same line, and they are all a little off the main thoroughfare of the town. If the lines are connected, it is not difficult to find that it looks like an oblique triangle.

Historically, in the southerner region of China, in ancient times, poor mountains and bad waters, miasma was a disaster, and now because it belongs to the subtropical region, most of the people in this region have a yellow and dark complexion, and their bodies are thin and small. But it seems that this law does not hold true in this town. The small mountain town like the whole soup plate can be described as beautiful mountains and rivers, and the people are outstanding. The girls are all fair-skinned and beautiful, surprisingly smart, and most of the young men are smart, healthy and strong. If so, more than ten generations in succession.

However, this situation began to change in Ling Lang's uncle's generation. People slowly began to find that the babies who had been white and fat were becoming weaker and weaker, even if they were conceived by healthy women, even if they never left the town. Some of the girls' skin began to turn dark and yellow, their eyes were not as clear as before, and the young men began to become uneven, tall, short, fat and thin, and they were not as vigorous as before.

What is even more surprising is that there is a side branch of the Li family in Sanhe Village, which is separated from Qianshang Village by two rivers and one mountain, where the people have become more and more violent, and when they have disputes with other villages and surnames, they often disagree with each other, and they will fight with each other at every turn, and wave their fists. It is often reported that there are discords between concubines and daughters-in-law, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fight, and even in the eyes of rural people, the heinous adultery and promiscuity are faintly spread all over the city. In people's impressions, Sanhe Village, which has always been built with the purpose of building a village with the three harmony of heaven, earth and man, is completely contrary to it, which is jaw-dropping.

Seeing that the temper of the villagers became more and more irritable, and there were more and more contradictions among the villagers. Finally, the old man of several clans in the village couldn't stand it anymore, and invited a big family surnamed Xu (feng shui master), Xu everyone was in the village, climbing mountains and wading through water, tossing and turning for three days, and finally said, "Sanhe Village, the land of the cow, the ancestral hall is just built in the position of the cow's head, the incense is flourishing, and the cow's temper is also bigger." ”

Later, under the auspices of Xu everyone, the villagers made efforts to dig a well in the Li ancestral hall, and the pond outside the ancestral hall was also widened and enlarged. Xu everyone also asked the town government to come forward, in the opposite side of Sanhe Village in the middle of the mountain to divert water for power generation, at the foot of the mountain to build a small hydropower station, although the hydropower station is small, but between the mountainside, two long, look larger than the hydropower station itself, water diversion iron pipes, from the middle of the mountain diagonally traversal.

Later, when the old people in the village talked about it, they speculated that there were different versions, and one of them was, in everyone's opinion, the most convincing.

"Lying cows and lying cows, the road is a cattle slaughtering knife, the well is a blood bucket, the pond is expanded to ensure that it does not die, and the iron pipe is a double bolt so that it cannot be slaughtered. ”

Since then, the villagers of Sanhe Village, although they have slowly returned to the previous harmonious environment, the physical fitness of the villagers has become the worst group of people in Shili Eight Village.

Ling Lang's father, Ling Jin, has a Chinese face, a burly figure but not stout, he did not graduate from junior high school, and he dropped out of school because his family was poor, but he is very shrewd and has an outstanding business mind since he was a child. Mother Li Yuhua, is not tall, but she is as her name, Yinghua is like jade, the skin on her face is as delicate as a baby, and the bottom is full of glossy red rhyme.

Ling Lang's eldest sister Ling Hui inherited her father's height, but her skin looks like her mother's shadow, she is tall and tall, and Zhong Ling is delicate. The temper also follows the mother, the small family is graceful, diligent and kind. She is a good child and a good girl who is famous in the village and outside the village.

And although Ling Lang is not short with his peers, he is not outstanding, and his skin is white, but he is sickly white, and his complexion is dark yellow. When his mother was pregnant with him, she followed his father all year round to earn a living, and she had no place to live and ate a messy diet. So it should be a little congenital deficiency, born in, frail and sickly, especially often nosebleeds, even if you touch his nose lightly, it will bleed.

Later, his parents were afraid that he would not be able to support him, and Ling's father was a big house, so he had to consider having another boy to inherit the incense, the peasant family was not rich, there was little land and many people, and the child grew up to barely be regarded as a laborer, but when he was a child, he was just a "gold-swallowing beast" who only knew how to open his mouth to eat.

Ling's father and Ling's mother took into account their own conditions and hoped that they would have another child and be a boy. So I prayed to God and Buddha, asked for more than medicine, and asked the feng shui guy to see it for a long time, but unfortunately it didn't work out, and I still gave birth to two younger sisters in a row, and the third had a little brother Ling Jie. Of course, because of this reason, the mother could no longer run away from the father, and had to choose to stay in the village to farm and take care of the children.

The younger brother Ling Jie beats the little dragon and the tiger, eight or nine years old is like a little calf, although he is seven years different from his brother, he is almost the same height and body when he stands together. And it's very strong.

Therefore, the grandfather who is 1.88 meters old and says that his 1.9 meter grandfather says that this is like his baby, and that the little brother will grow taller and stronger than him, and he will have the strength that he can't finish, so his grandfather also loves him very much.

However, this did not change Ling Lang's status as the "boss" of this small family. After all, the eldest son and eldest grandson are the greatest, and in this isolated mountain village, there is still a certain influence. Of course, the only one who recognizes and fully embraces this concept is actually my grandmother.

The grandmother who was born in the "scholarly family" is really "everyone's lady" in a small mountain town. Although she has a "brute" temperamental wife, and then several children are not very good at reading materials, or it should be said that there is no possibility of studying well. But as the eldest sister of the same generation in a side branch of the Li family, she has always had her own attitude towards life, treating people and things in all aspects, and being warm but polite, close and regular. And for decades, it hasn't changed its original intentions.

Grandma is a good housekeeper and has a very high status in the family, she is different from her grandfather, her preference for Ling Lang has never been concealed.

Parents also love the eldest very much, family affection and debt, plus they are afraid that the eldest son will be able to make up for it as a healthy adult, Ling Lang has really become a baby bump in this small family. The people in his uncle's family, and even many relatives who were slightly closer, called him "the eldest young master".

And in order to let the "eldest young master" grow up healthily, his parents, uncles, grandparents, uncles and aunts really tried all kinds of ways. It wasn't until he was in the third grade that maybe all kinds of secret recipes finally worked, or the pig's nose stewed houttuynia cordata, the bones stewed in Huaishan Pot enough, or the fortune teller's divination and hyphenation, and various remedial means finally came into play, and "Young Master Ling" slowly, at first, finally did not have nosebleeds so easily. After a few years like this, the Ling family's young man, who has only seen his height and not his flesh, finally had a little blood on his face.

The name "Ling Lang" is refreshing, but his personality is actually not cheerful, and his temperament is still a little soft, so his father often mutters that this child is like a mother.
