The second time

Lilac was not originally called Lilac, but Lilac was called after meeting a man named Gui Qiusheng and then marrying to Lilac Castle.

Lilac actually had a rough life, she was born in a place called Luoyingzhai in Anhua, Guyi, central Hunan when she was a child.

According to the annals of Anhua County, Anhua was known as Meishan Yao in ancient times, and the credible history can be traced back to the era of the former Qin, Chu and Han dynasties. At that time, the overlord of Chu coerced all the princes into the pass, destroyed the tyrannical Qin, and divided the princes from all walks of life. One of the generals named Mei Juan and Xiang Yu and Liu Bang were listed as eighteen princes, and 100,000 households were sealed, and the fief was now Meizhou, Guangdong - Sima Qian's history records: Mei Juan had a lot of merit and 100,000 households. Speaking of this, everyone who understands history may be a little confused, how many fiefs are 100,000 households, and how much merit does Zhang Liang have in the early Han Dynasty, only 30,000 households? Since ancient times, most of the people who have been able to fief 10,000 households in China have been famous and famous at that time, and there are 100,000 households? But this Mei Juan has a lot of merit in addition to Taishi Gong's sentence of Mei Juan, and he has sealed 100,000 outdoors, and there seems to be no more Mei Juan in credible national history. Attentive readers will finally discover the mystery after careful study. One hundred thousand household marquis is true, the fief is fake in Meizhou, Guangdong, think about Qin's Zhao Tuo opening Nanyue to establish himself as a king, according to Lingnan, Meizhou has long been the place where his old man is king! He is already very kind to the old man who does not wave the Central Plains to win the world, how can you, a little prince, beg for meat in his tiger's mouth? Speaking of which, this Xiang Yu is even more unkind, and it is more affordable to give Mei Juan a general than 100,000 households, and Mei Juan is also dumb and can't say anything about Coptis chinensis, so he has to take his subordinates into the border of central Hunan and Guangxi to beg for a living.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang was divided again, according to the history of Anhua County, Mei Juan opened Meishan, and the clansmen called Mo Wei, exempt from taxes. Liu Bangchu opened the world, can you not make trouble and avoid you from buying a safe one, Mei Juan is happy to be a foreign immortal, both of them are very cost-effective, and they are secretly happy! The people of the mountains and wilderness worship gods and martial arts, and the people are fierce. Entering the war era of the fifth generation of the Tang Dynasty, Meishan Dongyao stuck to his homeland and did not communicate with China. Fu Hanyang, Dun Hanling and other generations of Mei kings stick to Meishan, so far Gaoming Township Situ Ling has become the sad burial place of the five generations of Chu King Tong Situ, and the five generations of countries can not touch Meishan.

The wheel of history turned to the Northern Song Dynasty to open the country, and there was a side of the collapse that could not allow others to snore, and Zhao Kuangyin, who was known as the Taizu who was called to snore, was consulted several times, and finally sent Zhang Hui to go through all the hardships and dangers during the Song Dynasty Shenzong, and finally pacified Meishan! Shenzong pondered, this Meishan Mountain is high and dense, and the people of the mountain gather their hearts, and if they don't find a way, they can't cure these mountain people. So the Meishan ten mountains are analyzed into two, placed in Xinhua, Anhua two counties divide and rule, Anhua means "return to Andehua," since then Anhua has truly become the land of kings. The old generation often has Xin'an Erhua is a family, and today, when it comes to the villagers, the villagers of Xin'an Erhua can hold each other together to keep warm when they work hard, and the feelings of pulling out the knife are still there. Although the king has turned into a fierce people, the spirit of worshipping gods and advocating martial arts has continued under the inheritance of the ancestors of the past generations! Xinhua is the hometown of famous martial arts in the country, Daxiong Mountain is the place where the warriors of all dynasties have been fascinated, and the people who practice martial arts in the countryside of Anhua also have a long history! Today, the army recruits scouts, special forces, guards and the like, and the new security two is the preferred list of the head of the unit. Wuwu culture, the prosperity of Buddhism is also the characteristics of the two places!

Lilac's family is surnamed Cao, there are two brothers and one sister, because of the ranking of the eldest, the surrounding elders are called Manmei, and the younger generations are called Mangu. Over time, no one knew about the name. His father's ancestors did not move from Jiangxi to Hunan and have multiplied for more than ten generations. Anhua Mountain is dense and densely intertwined, and the products are extremely abundant, such as tung oil, tea oil, tea, trees, palm rope and so on, but there is a lack of daily necessities such as salt, fish and shrimp, bamboo, industrial products, etc.

In today's words, where there is demand, there is a market, and the exchange of whether there is something allows the ancestors to find hope for a living. Luoyingzhai is located more than 20 kilometers away from the county seat of a big mountainside, there is a river in the north of the mountain, which can be traced back to the Yishui River and directly reaches the Dongting Lake area. Over the southeast side of the mountain, out of more than ten kilometers, there is a river channel, can pass through Ningxiang Township, Weishui, direct to Xiangjiang River, Changsha. The surrounding mountains and mountains of Anhua are completely dependent on the shoulders of horses, which are supported and drained down the river to the rivers and lakes during the rising water season. Therefore, a group of large and small merchants who made a living by selling, buying and transshipment were formed among the mountain people.

Lilac's grandfather was powerful and powerful since he was a child, and when he was young, he entered the ranks of supporting and trafficking with a group of local gangsters when he was a businessman on Caowei Street, and when he had a conflict of interest, he became famous and famous in all parts of the country.

It was also because of this weapon fight that he got acquainted with a martial artist surnamed Gong in Xinhua Big Bear Mountain, and later this martial artist favored him and married his eldest daughter to him. This woman has learned martial arts under the guidance of her father and brother since she was a child, and she is still wearing iron shoes weighing more than ten pounds in her seventies. Most of the people who practice martial arts know a little medicine, pull some herbs, collect souls and make altars, etc., from her to cloves. I don't think that in the fifties and sixties, during the national famine years, it was this skill passed on by my grandmother that saved the lives of Lilac's family - this is a later story.

When Lilac was old, she often told her grandchildren stories about her grandparents, such as the story of her grandfather wrestling with others, her opponent challenging her to fly on the roof beam and stepping on two footprints, her grandmother holding a rag and flying on the roof beam to erase the footprints so that the opponent would retreat and bow down to teach her, and so on. In particular, the section where the footprints on the beam on the flying body is particularly brilliant, and the old man is full of piety when he talks about it, as if he is in the scene.

Since the defeat of the martial artist surnamed Liu that time, he has been practicing hard everywhere, and he has also dismantled with the master many times and felt that he could be ashamed. When the dragon is played in the first month, I came to your grandfather's house, only your grandfather was at home that day, and it happened that your grandfather was seriously ill and weak in typhoid fever, and after a meal of greetings and tea, the martial artist surnamed Liu looked around left and right, and suddenly hugged his fist and said to his grandfather: "Master Cao, there is something moving on the beam of your house, I'll go up and take a look!" When it was too late, I saw Liu Wushi take a vertical step, step on two steps along the middle pillar and jump to the beam, and then kick the beam with his foot, and finally a harrier turned over and landed steadily five steps away from his grandfather.

My grandfather was injured that day and didn't know how to deal with it. When I was in distress, my grandmother came back from the door, saw the fallen tiles in the hall, and then looked at the beams and roofs of the house, and immediately understood what was going on. I saw that your grandmother pretended to be a little annoyed and said to your grandfather after saying a blessing to Martial Master Liu: 'Look at it, this beast is too naughty, and he can play a good game! You don't care about it, let Master Liu laugh! ——Yong is referring to your uncle and grandfather. I saw your grandmother carrying a kettle rag, a longitudinal step only on the middle pillar of the foot on a swallow turned over and hung upside down on the house, unhurriedly wiped the footprints on the beam with a rag, a harrier turned over and landed in the middle of the hall, the water splashed a little. Martial Master Liu knew that he was invincible, so he humbly asked for advice and asked the two masters to give him advice and then resigned, and since then Martial Master Liu has never shown his face in the four miles and eight towns near Luoyingsai! ”

Every time I talk about these, some of the grandchildren worship and believe it, and some grandchildren don't think so, and the eldest grandchildren such as Zhou Kang often retort in a big way, "Grandma lied, our teacher said that the world champion only jumped more than 2 meters high, and grandma is more experienced than the world champion?" Unbelief!! ”

Whenever this moment, Lilac always said seriously, "What does your teacher know, your grandmother has been harmed!! "Bluffing Zhou Kang, they don't dare to be angry.

And the grandchildren are older, Lilac still tells them over and over again, and the grandchildren are no longer noncommittal, and they have the right to chat with the elderly.

Lilac's grandfather gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and he accumulated considerable wealth when he walked Huxiang in middle age all his life, and like most rich people in ancient times, in addition to buying land and building houses and buying property, the most important thing is to ask teachers to teach his children, after all, the merchants and peddlers in the rivers and lakes to beg for food can not be regarded as a master's life.

Since ancient times, everything is inferior, and only reading is high. According to the history of Hunan modern history of the talent to a large extent from the middle and late Qing Dynasty after the Hunan army pacified the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the plundered of the Tianjing after the Hunan army returned to Hunan with gold and silver to plant the field industry, another thing is to cultivate children with heavy money, all kinds of private schools all over the three Hunan and four waters, it is precisely because of this kind of humanistic edification that can produce talents, Hunan people in the whole modern history of China have made significant contributions, exaggerated to say, influenced the trend of our entire modern China.

As the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and rats can make holes. Lilac's father and two brothers inherited the martial temperament of their parents, especially his uncle, who didn't know how many teachers were scared away by the fight. In the end, he didn't succeed in the last martial arts of the late Qing Dynasty, which can be regarded as an unexpected harvest of planting melons and beans. Lilac's father is in a better situation, as the eldest son, he is more disciplined, although he has more of three heroes and five righteousness in his bones, he is still a little economical in his belly.

Lilac's grandfather learned from the pain, and hired a Yao Xiucai daughter to marry his eldest son, this Yao Xiucai's daughter is Lilac's mother, in today's words, it belongs to genetic optimization. Scholarly families have the habit of binding their feet, and compared with their mother-in-law's big-footed martial arts, the small-footed daughter-in-law has more Wenxiu spirit, maybe Lilac inherited her mother's external Wenxiu weak body, but in her bones she adheres to her father's heroic and resolute. Many years later, when Lilac talked about her parents with her grandchildren, she said proudly that it was thanks to her mother's wrapped feet that she couldn't run fast and couldn't run far, so she was spared a lot of beatings and scolding.

At this point, the grandchildren laughed naughtily.

Ding Xiang was born in the 11th year of the Republic of China, and when she was born, her grandfather had passed away, and her health had not been better since Liu Wushi came to ask for advice, and she passed away the day after her second brother was born. Lilac can remember the death day of her grandfather, who has never been seen before, mainly because she remembers her second brother's birthday.

Since the death of my grandfather, there have been many changes in the family. Father took over the mantle of grandfather, father is a large jade, the young people in the industry are called Jade Master, and the older ones are called Boss Cao. The long-pole dry tobacco bottle left by his grandfather was passed on to his father, and the long-rod tobacco bottle had two uses in ancient times, one was to smoke and the other was a necessary weapon for self-defense when walking the rivers and lakes - the long-pole tobacco bottle and a long shirt became Lilac's deep impression of his father when he was a child.

The uncle who was stubborn and tired of literature since he was a child, the emperor disappeared a few years after the martial arts, and Gong's mother asked people everywhere to make a difference for her son in the county government, and the name of the squad leader was actually just running errands for the county magistrate. Uncle led a few of his brothers to wander around in four towns and eight towns every once in a while, and made friends with a lot of third-rate and nine-class people in the name of the county magistrate, and occasionally did some out-of-the-ordinary things.

Lilac's happiest time stopped before the age of six, and decades later, she told her grandchildren about the happiness of her childhood before the age of six, that is, except for her mother Yao, who occasionally thought she was not like a girl, and played wild crazy with a group of boys all day long, chasing and scolding with her little feet, other memories were sweet!

Sister is quiet by nature, like her mother Yao, my sister is twelve years older than Lilac, at the age of sixteen, she promised a family surnamed Wang on the Wang family, and she went out of the cabinet in the second year, perhaps because of the difference in personality since childhood, the deepest impression of my sister is only the fact that my sister chased her to wash her hair and wipe her face.

The two brothers above spoiled her, and when they had nothing to do, they took her to play with a group of boys who were three or two years older than her. There is still a scar on her forehead, which was injured by her eldest brother who took her to climb the stone mountain behind the house. Afterwards, the eldest brother took her to wash off the blood stains with cold spring water and treat the wound, and then coaxed her to say, "Sister Man doesn't cry, Sister Man is brave, Daddy brought back candy and I gave you all my share, don't tell me that I brought you here, you came alone, okay?" ”

Later, I still let the adults know, and it was inevitable that the eldest brother was beaten again.

At this time, Manmei took her father's hand, "Dad, don't beat the eldest brother, I really fell it myself, it's not the eldest brother's business." Afterwards, the eldest brother who was beaten still faithfully gave all the candy that belonged to him to Lilac.

Decades later, she still shows her grandchildren the scars on her forehead, and the happiness on her face is as interesting as if it happened yesterday.

The two brothers went to school, and when they went to school, they also took her to the school to play (the Republic of China, the former Qing private school entered the history museum), took her to climb the low earth wall behind the school, and occasionally instigated her to steal her husband's brush and draw red paper or something.

Mr. sometimes found out and didn't scold Lilac, every time he leaned down and asked softly: "Sister Man, ride, tell Mr. which one you want to take?" At this time, Manmei always stared at her husband with her head up, and then she secretly glanced at her two brothers or other brothers and classmates who instigated her, and muttered: "I won't tell you!"

The rest of the thing is that Mr. accurately finds the initiator, or the punishment station or the beating board and other punishments crying wolf. Lilac was left standing outside the classroom, and couldn't help but jump up and clap her hands and smile!

The unobtrusive uncle found two wives successively, one died of illness in two years, and the other really couldn't stand her man's nonsense all day long.

Since then, my uncle still has no heart or lungs to enjoy himself alone, but he is worried about his grandmother and Gong's mother, and the two mothers and sons are noisy when they meet.

That said, the uncle is very kind to Lilac and may neglect other elders and relatives every time he comes home, but it is a must to bring some candy and gadgets to Lilac. When the two eldest nephews sometimes provoke Lilac, the uncle always picks up the elders and reprimands: "Sister Manmei is younger, she is a woman, you won't let her?!" This may be because the two aunts did not leave a son and a half daughter to their uncle!

The most painful thing for her is her father, her father is a perennial businessman, and he always goes home in the dust, today Zhang Zhang's shopkeeper begs for his daughter-in-law, tomorrow Boss Liu's 60th birthday, and which relatives are going to visit the next day, but this is a little busy will not affect the love for cloves.

Every time Dad came back, Lilac always trotted far away to meet him, and Dad always put down the cigarette stick in his hand, while taking out a handful of Hankou or Yiyang candy and other gadgets from his shirt and underwear with his right hand, and then tilted his head hehe, "Manmei-miss Dad?" Is it obedient in the house? Obedient will be given to you! ”

Man Mei always snatched her father's candy or something, and lowered her head seriously and said, "Obedient, I want to kill my father!" At this time, Dad picked up Manmei with his left hand, picked up cigarette sticks and items with his right hand, and talked all the way back to the house.

When visiting relatives and friends, they always bring cloves, and cloves are never timid with adults. When her friends always coaxed her to be a daughter-in-law of so-and-so or so-and-so, Lilac always replied seriously: "No, I want to be my father's daughter-in-law!" Coaxed all the adults to squirt out their rice!

Grandma knows some medical skills, and there are often herbs she digs up inside and outside the hospital, which are cut into pieces and held with bamboo tools. The cloves are always upside down behind the grandmother's buttocks, and sometimes they secretly pinch a small piece with their little hands and chew it in their mouths. When chewed, it is fragrant and fragrant, sweet and bitter. Grandma found out that she slapped her with a backhand, and muttered, "You ancestor, don't be stubborn, you can't take medicine casually!" ”

Afterwards, I took the trouble to tell her that this is a pain reduction, that is Houttuynia cordata, what is it used for, etc. After coming and going, Lilac also knew a lot of medicinal materials, and when the weather was good, he went to the mountains with his grandmother to dig herbs. The grandmother and grandmother were in charge of digging, and the cloves were in charge of throwing the herbs into the basket and going home together at mealtime.

When she was five and a half years old, Lilac entered the school, and a lot of things have happened since that year. In Lilac's words, she was only a six-year-old, and spent the rest of the decades working as a cow and a horse.

The second round
