Outside the village committee, Mrs. Sun chattered endlessly, and from time to time she talked about some things from the past, but no one came forward to interrupt her.

Even those villagers involuntarily squatted down, holding their chins in both hands, and listened with relish, after all, who could not be interested in the affairs of the landlord's family back then!

Li Weidong held his hands in his arms, and there were some things at this time, and only by figuring out what happened back then could he better understand the present of Shuangshui Village.

Mrs. Sun has been lying on the fire pit of the Sun family since she suffered from eye disease, and she has never been so popular as she is now.

Feeling the gaze of the onlookers, Mrs. Sun seemed to have an illusion that she was the storyteller who walked the streets and alleys.

The storyteller was originally a farmer scholar, relying on his parents' few acres of thin fields, went to private school for a few years, in order to win the future, went to Beijing to catch the exam, and sold those thin fields to the gold landlords.

But after he spent half a year and exhausted all the materials on his body, when he came to the capital, he found that the emperor was gone, and the court could not open the list.

There was no way, Mr. Storyteller could only beg all the way back to Huangyuan County, he originally wanted to rely on those brothers of his own family to live in Huangyuan County again.

But his brothers, who had already been angry at him for selling his ancestral inheritance, saw him come home in despair, and instead of accepting him, they laughed at him and drove him out of the village.

The storyteller was desperate, so he could only rely on the travelogues he had read before, telling stories to guests in the teahouse in the county seat, and earning some reward money to spend his life.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that storytelling also had a chassis, and the original storyteller was more popular when he saw him, for fear of being robbed of his business, so he colluded with some bastards, beat him up, and drove him out of the county.

There is no way, the storyteller can only find a cane and go to the countryside to beg, of course, his so-called begging is different from those authentic beggars, but first tell people a piece of book.

To this day, Mrs. Sun still remembers the story of the storyteller telling the story of the monkey and the pig in the crowd, and the original absurd story was told by him so brilliantly that the people around him applauded.

This man is really capable enough.

It's just that Huangyuan County suffered from drought year after year, and the villagers themselves couldn't even eat enough, and the storyteller was nowhere to be found.

It's a shame.

Seeing that Mrs. Sun stopped, Tian Futang hurriedly urged loudly: "Old lady, what next?" ”

Yes, that's the taste, and the storyteller was also urged like this back then.

Mrs. Sun took a deep breath and continued: "Xiu'e is completely different from the talented girl in the county, she is a hard-working girl, her father and mother are hired farmers, and there are two older brothers, and she has to do all the heavy work at home on weekdays. Because her two brothers were getting married and needed money to buy a daughter-in-law, her parents started her idea.

After all, the landlord is a big landlord, and the bride price must be much higher than that of ordinary people.

At that time, Xiu'er was originally the object of a childhood sweetheart, but the young man was in the same village as her, but he was a poor bastard.

After Xiu'e's parents got the bride price, they tied Xiu'e up without any hesitation and sent it to the landlord's house.

I have to say that the old matchmaker's eyes are really vicious, Xiu'e gave birth to Jin Guangliang in the first year of entering the door, and in the following two years, she gave birth to the second Jin Guangming and the third Jin Guangliang.

It stands to reason that Xiu'e helped the landlord Jin give birth to three sons, and her status will be greatly improved, but in fact, on the contrary, Xiu'e's life in the Jin family is only a little better than that of ordinary maids. The house where he lived was a damp and narrow side house, and when he was eating, he could not go into the house to enjoy a good meal with the landlord, but could only nibble on the nest mixed with sawdust with us servants.

Xiu'e gradually understood that she was a fertility tool for the landlord of gold.

She is a young girl herself, and she is the kind of person who is full of resistance in her heart, and has always wanted to escape from the Jin family, but the Jin landlord has not relaxed her guard on her, and all the maids have been ordered not to let Xiu'e leave the Jin family's mansion.

So Xiu'e has never been able to find a chance.

At this time, Kim Jun-san appeared.

Jin Junshan is the distant nephew of the Jin landlord, although he is also a long-term worker of the Jin family, but because when he was a child, he accompanied the Jin landlord to a private school for a few years, so he can be regarded as literate and hyphenated.

He was entrusted by the Jin landlord to be in charge of the Jin family's rent collection affairs, because the Jin family had too much land, even if they hired a large number of long-term workers, there was no way to cultivate it, so the Jin landlord rented the remaining barren land to nearby farmers. If a farmer wants to rent the Jin family's land, he has to pay a large amount of tenant rent every year.

Collecting tenant rent was not a simple task, and in the eyes of the gold landlords, the cunning peasants would try their best to conceal their output and demand a reduction in their rents during the harvest season, and when they paid the tenant rent, they would also play all kinds of tricks to confuse the people who came to collect rent.

And throughout the Jin family, only Jin Junshan can take on this responsibility, firstly, he has read books and can use abacus, and secondly, Jin Junshan was five big and three thick back then, and his muscles are strong, and he looks very able to scare those farmers, and the most important point is that Jin Junshan has lived with the landlord Jin for a period of time since he was a child, and he is considered to be the direct cronies of the landlord Jin, and belongs to the kind of person who can be trusted. Therefore, the landlord of Jin entrusted the matter of collecting rent to Jin Junshan.

Of course, at the suggestion of the talented woman in the county, Jin Junshan is still a long-term worker, not the housekeeper of the Jin family, so that he can save a salary.

Although Kim Junsan is a long-term worker, because he is also a rent-collector, he can freely enter and leave the Jin family's mansion.

Compared with the landlord of Jin, Jin Junshan is like a handsome old scalper, and soon attracted Xiu'e's attention.

Xiu'e took the opportunity to fetch water in the yard and began to hook up with Jin Junshan, who was not married at that time, just a young man in his twenties, where could he be the opponent of that little woman.

In addition, Xiu'e is very beautiful, and Jin Junshan is also a womanizer, and within a few days, they took advantage of the opportunity of the landlord Jin to take the talented girl from the county to the county to watch a play, and achieved a good thing.

In the days that followed, the two would go into the cowshed whenever they had the chance.

They thought they were doing it secretively, but they couldn't hide it from me, a maid, but I also had sympathy for Xiu'e at that time, so I didn't expose them.

Later, my relatives suddenly fell ill and were dismissed by the Kim family, so I had to stay at home all day, so I didn't know what was going on.

But the Jin landlord's house suddenly ignited a fire one night, and everyone in the Jin family, including the three Jin Guangming brothers, the maids, and the long-term workers, were safe and sound, but the Jin landlord and the talented girl in the county town died in the fire.

Don't you think that's strange? ”

Old Lady Sun suddenly stopped and looked at Jin Junshan with a strange gaze.

The onlookers suddenly discussed.

"Yes, I also heard my father talk about the fire back then, and it was so strange that it was burned around the house of the landlord of the golden landlord."

"I see, it must be that the matter between Jin Junshan and Xiu'e was discovered by the Jin landlord, and the Jin landlord was ready to punish the two, but Jin Junshan found out, so he ordered the house of the Jin landlord in advance."

"Hey, it's not a good thing to say that Jin Junshan is not a good thing, there is no way for such a person to be the second-in-command of our Shuangshui Village at all."

"I suggest that Kim Jun-san be removed from his position now!"

In the crowd, the three Jin Guangming brothers looked at Jin Junshan, their teeth clenched, and their fists clenched tightly.

They were still very young and ignorant, but they only remember that one night, a fire broke out in the Jin family, and the landlord Jin and the eldest mother and Erniang were all burned to death.

The landlord was a bully to those long-term workers in Shuangshui Village, but to the three brothers, he was a relative.

In particular, the landlord of Jin does not look stingy with others, but he is very good to his children, when he was young, the three brothers of the Jin family enjoyed the treatment that could not be enjoyed again in this life.

They ate delicacies every day, and when they traveled, they could ride on the neck of the long-term worker, and the long-term worker was used as a cow and horse to walk, and they could wear silk clothes, all of which disappeared with the death of the gold landlord.

After the death of the Jin landlord, the three brothers were still young, and those side branches of the Jin family once wanted to occupy the Jin landlord's family property, but when they came to the Jin family compound, the brothers of the talented women in the county town came from the county seat with people.

They didn't come on their own, they were followed by a team of men with spears.

They announced on the spot that all the property of the Jin family belonged to them, and had nothing to do with the people of the Jin family's side branch and Shuangshui Village.

Of course, those Jin family members were dissatisfied in their hearts, but in the face of the black muzzle, they could only give in.

In this way, the three brothers of the Jin family have no food and clothing, and have lived a hungry and full life, of course, Jin Guangming knows that the landlord of Jin once hid a large number of gold, silver and jewelry in order to prevent mountain bandits from entering the village.

But he knew better that he was too young to protect those possessions at all, and that if he took them out, they would be robbed.

In this way, the Jin brothers lived in hardship until after liberation.

In the eyes of the three brothers of the Jin family, the reason why they are living so miserably is because of Jin Junshan.

Jin Guangliang is relatively calm by nature and can bear it, while Jin Guangliang and Jin Guangming's hearts are already full of anger.

"Jin Junshan, it turns out that your grandson is doing ghosts in the back! Thanks to our three brothers, we have always believed in you all these years! ”

Jin Guanghui and Jin Guangguang picked up the shovel and rushed forward.

"Listen to my explanation, Mrs. Sun is just talking nonsense, you must not believe it!" Jin Junshan's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Your brother forgot, if it wasn't for me, you would have starved to death!" ”

This matter has to start after the fire of the Jin family, because all the property of the Jin family was robbed by the people of the county, and the three brothers of the Jin family changed from the young master of the Jin family to the poor overnight, and they didn't even have a place to live.

At this time, Jin Junshan appeared, he brought sweet potatoes and wowotou to the three brothers, and also placed the three brothers in a dilapidated cave.

"Of course we remember, but you did something bad at that time, and you felt guilty in your heart, that's why you were so kind to our brother!" Jin Guangming said loudly at the top of his throat.

"Brother, don't talk to him, we're going to avenge our parents today!"

As he spoke, Jin Guanghui raised the shovel and rammed it towards Jin Junshan.

Poop!

A stick stabbed out from the side, the shovel slashed on the stick, and the shock force transmitted from the shovel handle made Jin Guanghui's mouth hurt, and the shovel handle came out of his hand.

Jin Guanghui was taken aback, turned his head to look, and frowned when he saw that it was Jin Junwu.

"Jin Junwu, what are you doing, this matter has nothing to do with you, you don't get involved!"

The three brothers of the Jin family have a very good impression of Jin Junwu, and Jin Junwu has helped them several times after liberation.

Jin Junwu looked at the chaotic scene and sighed in his heart.

Originally, he was one step away from being able to get Tian Futang done with the help of Sun Yuting, but how did things develop to such a point?

Ever since he started dealing with Tian Futang, he always felt that he had the strength to compete with them in secret.

This strength is particularly strange, it is not to prevent them from dealing with Tian Futang, but it will always make them fall into a lose-lose situation in the battle with Tian Futang.

Jin Junwu looked at the angry three brothers of the Jin family, shook his head with a wry smile, and dispelled the strange thoughts in his mind.

He strode up to Jin Guangming and said in a cold voice: "Jin Guangming, no matter what Jin Junshan did before, it was all before liberation, and it has nothing to do with the present." We should look forward, we should unite, and we should not fall for the enemy's schemes. ”

Hearing this, Jin Guangming frowned, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. He is not a fool, the old lady of the Sun family did not mention it early or late, but at this point in time, it must be ill-intentioned to tell the events of the year.

Moreover, as Jin Junwu said, the current enemy of the Jin family is the Tian family, and it has always been at a disadvantage, if there is infighting, all the Jin family will not have good fruits to eat.

He hesitated for a moment.

When Jin Junwu appeared, Tian Futang's brows were tightly furrowed, and he shouted in his heart.

Among the people of the Jin family, he is most afraid of Jin Junwu, although Jin Junwu is not as cunning as Jin Junshan, but he has the characteristics that Jin Junshan does not have - sincerity.

Those Jin family members are willing to listen to Jin Junwu.

And what happened next was exactly what he had guessed.

Tian Futang could not tolerate the good situation, which was destroyed because of Kim Junwu's involvement.

He took a deep breath, stepped forward, looked at Jin Junwu and said, "Jin Junwu, what do you mean, they were burned to death in the fire back then, but Jin Guangming's parents have nothing to do with you, of course you can be regarded as an outsider." No, you're not an outsider, you're Kim Jun-san's younger brother, of course you have to help Kim Jun-san speak!

However, I advise you, people are doing it, the sky is watching, you help the abuse, sooner or later you will be punished. ”
