Chapter 21: The Dispute over Changing Surnames
Tan Jiexing didn't care so much.
She's just going to look for a wild boar.
Otherwise, she will be crushed by the five girls for the rest of her life!
The two men went on a rampage in the dense forests of the poor mountains.
The mountains are relatively high, and ordinary people can't come up.
The wild boar herd lives here, and it is not hidden at all, and there are traces of their arch food everywhere.
But if you really want to find them out of the mountains and old forests and hunt them, it is not an easy task.
Then switch to Tan Qingqing's side.
Tan Qingqing knocked all the balls of chestnut tree green fur from the tree to the ground.
Almost all the fruits of the tree were plucked down by Tan Qingqing.
The chestnut trees, which were originally fruitful, were all bare-bones at this time.
The slope is also full of thorn balls.
Ordinary people don't even have a place to stay.
Of course, in a famine year, only fruit trees growing in such mountain and forest conditions have the possibility of being taken advantage of by Tan Qingqing.
Slowly pick up the burr balls on the ground and put them into the burlap bag.
I picked up about seven or eight bags.
Tie the hemp rope and carry it down the mountain one by one. Heaped on the side of the mountain road.
She was going to finish moving all the chestnuts and catch up with the dart team.
Unexpectedly, at the bottom of the mountain, Chen An and Chen Shi actually parked their carriages and stood quietly, waiting for her.
"Why didn't you go with the darts team?"
Tan Qingqing carried a bag full of cloth on his back, and steadily descended the mountain, and saw Chen An, Chen Shi, and Chen Hua standing in that row.
It's like a penalty station.
"It's not that you went up the mountain and disappeared. I'm afraid that you won't be able to see us when you come down, so stop? ”
Chen Shi muttered loudly, "What are you carrying on your back?" ”
"It's chestnuts." Tan Qingqing stood on the hillside, so he threw the burlap bag on his back down the mountain.
"There are seven or eight more bags. You guys help put it on the cart. ”
Chen An and Chen Shi hurriedly pulled the burlap bag over.
They tore open the bag and looked inside, and it was full of thorn balls.
If it was like Feng's child, when he saw this thorn ball, he would definitely be so frightened that he would mumble and ask others to quickly take these away. Don't prick his hand!
But Chen An and Chen Shi were not afraid at all.
They found a few heavy stones and began to sort and peel the shells.
The stone was in their hands, and in a short time it smashed the thorn shell open. Chestnut shells are exposed.
Chen An somewhere folded two hard branches.
A branch pressed against the bark on the chestnut surface, and a branch picked the chestnut out of it.
The husks were collected by him.
After peeling the chestnuts, Chen An and Chen Shi took a new burlap bag and put it in it.
They peeled the skin very quickly.
In a short time, the ground was full of chestnut burrs that they had picked up and wanted.
Wait for Tan Qingqing to transport the second bag of chestnuts down.
Chen An and Chen Shi have already peeled more than a dozen chestnuts.
It's all neatly put into a cloth bag, and people are happy when they look at it.
By the time all the eight bags of chestnuts were thrown onto the mountain road, Chen An and Chen Shi had already peeled most of the bags.
Tan Qingqing looked at her achievements for more than an hour.
I thought, this should be 50 pounds, right?
"These chestnuts should last a long time, right?" Chen Shixin counted these fruits with joy, and his face couldn't hide his joy.
"If you want to eat, isn't it the same that you can eat it in two or three days?" There are so many of them.
Just the work in the Dragon Gate Dart Bureau, there are twelve or thirteen people. With the addition of the Tan family, it is more than 20 people. Add to that the large number of refugees that followed......
That's an unimaginable amount.
But not afraid.
When things are at the worst they will mend.
As long as there are hands and feet, what about natural disasters? What about famine years?
As long as you are diligent, good days are ahead.
Tan Qingqing cleaned up the burrs on his clothes, and the dust that he accidentally stained while crawling in the mountains and forests.
This wild mountain is also enough.
If it weren't for the fact that her body had a martial arts foundation, she might not be able to get so many chestnuts down the mountain safely.
After all, if you want to go up this mountain, there is no place to settle down.
It's all dense forest and branches.
It's hard to walk.
"The third brother and the fourth sister didn't come down?" I don't know what happened to Tan Yunxing and Tan Jiexing.
These two fools, I'm afraid they're not lost in the mountains and forests, right?
"Nope." Chen Shi shook his head, "They haven't come down yet." ”
As he spoke, Chen Shi looked at Chen An again, his little face wrinkled, as if he had something to say.
But for some unspeakable reason, I stopped talking.
Tan Qingqing looked at Chen Shi's stiff expression, and knew that this monkey had some dirty farts to release, so he said bluntly.
"Speak quickly if you have anything to say. Don't hide it, I'm afraid you'll get sick. ”
But Chen Shi still screamed, and he wanted to speak.
When Chen An saw him like this, he also spoke by himself.
"That's right. I am so grateful for the care you have taken care of us along the way. But as children of the Chen family, we must not turn our backs on our ancestors and change our surname halfway. ”
"So, I discussed with my younger siblings just now and decided not to rely on your Tan Clan's dart game anymore. Instead, go on your own. ”
Hearing this, Tan Qingqing's face was puzzled.
"You have seen it too, elders, and you have called your uncle. As a result, you are now saying you want to go? ”
"I'm sorry." Chen An bowed towards Tan Qingqing.
"I know I'm saving the face of your Dragon Gate Dart Bureau. So, when we get to the next town, we'll sneak by. ”
“…… After that, I didn't see each other again. ”
Tan Qingqing is not an ancient, so naturally he doesn't know how aggrieved he can be if he changes his surname.
Aren't there many single-parent families in modern times, where children are separated from their fathers and changed to their mother's surname?
But since Chen An is so reluctant, Tan Qingqing is not easy to force.
"If you don't change your surname, you won't change your surname."
"But it's impossible to go." ”
"You have also seen it, I have already taken you to meet with the elders of the Tan family, and they have also recognized you. If you want to leave, I'm afraid it's not that easy. ”
"......"
"We'll talk about that later."
Tan Qingqing said, "I'm going to find the third brother and the fourth sister." They hadn't come down for so long, and they didn't know what they were doing. ”
Saying that, Tan Qingqing asked Chen An to continue to drive the horse, and no longer gave him a chance to continue talking.
He quickly followed the whereabouts of Tan Yunxing and Tan Jiexing, and once again disappeared into the deep mountains and old forests.
As for Chen An and Chen Shi, they were thrown in the middle of the mountain road again by Tan Qingqing.
Chen Shi couldn't help but glance at Chen An.
"Brother, I just said we can't go. Look, you haven't even said a word before you were dismissed by Sister Qingqing. ”
"However, she asked us to keep the surname 'Chen', which we didn't expect."
Although Chen An was also very confused.
is aimed at the posture of the Tan family, if he doesn't change his surname with his younger brothers and sisters......
I'm afraid that I will either have to lose the flesh or have to peel off the skin.
Perhaps, this is just Tan Qingqing's delaying tactic?
When they arrived in Yuzhou City, they were forced to enter the Tan ancestral hall and changed to the surname Tan?
Chen An was thinking about it there, and Tan Qingqing rushed into the old forest again.
She followed the trails of Tan Yunxing and Tan Jiexing all the way and found the place where these two fools were hiding.
As soon as he found these two fools, Tan Qingqing asked.
"Are you here? After searching for a long time, did you find something to eat? ”
