Chapter 17 Xinghua Village

//

"Where else can I go, get out. The main thing is that they are afraid of you and can only live in a foreign land. ”

Xin Youjian set his eyes on Lu Xiaoxian's "black slave".

"And where the hell are you staying?" Lu Xiaoxian also noticed Xin Youji's gaze.

"In fact, they didn't know where to go at that time, and they couldn't get a result from the discussion. Since I don't know where to go, I simply stride forward. After walking around for three or four days, I arrived at Xinghua Village. ”

Xin Youjian looked at the sword in Lu Xiaoxian's hand and touched it with his hand.

"Don't use your sharp weapons, children, and talk about the rest of the story."

Lu Xiaoxian didn't let him touch the sword in his hand.

Xin Youjian was a little disappointed, and said: "Alas, it's a pity that my heroic dream is worn out with them." When we arrived at Xinghua Village, we found an inn to live in. But there is not much money, and only five people can be crammed into one room. Order a plate of vegetables, a bucket of rice, and that's our day. Do you know? Later, everyone pooled all the money, but it was still not enough for the house, so they were kicked out. You don't know how embarrassed it was. was ridiculed by the shopkeeper, counting our unbearable days, which provoked the neighbors to laugh. It's embarrassing that I won't learn to listen to you. After moving out, I found a dilapidated house on the corner and used it as a place to stand. It's tattered and rotten and leaking, but it's still stable. That Huang Erlengzi, in order to let us eat, wrote a sign, hung it around his neck, and ran all over the street. ”

"What's the sign?"

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoxian thought a little.

"What kind of brand can it be, sell yourself."

"Sell yourself, or big man?"

Lu Xiaoxian was unstable when he heard this.

"Then what else can I do, I can't do anything, I can only sell myself as a coolie."

"I thought it was ......," Lu Xiaoxian coughed awkwardly.

"Why do you think it's hard to find a job these days. In this way, the two stunned and the big fat two went out to work and did not have enough for us to eat, mainly because there was too little work, and there were a lot of people with strength. The Su brothers also went to the fields and mountains to dig some wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger, and spent several months like this. Xin Youjian is like an old storyteller, tirelessly talking.

"Are you so miserable, why don't you want to come back?"

Lu Xiaoxian felt a trace of sympathy in his heart, and let the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers pass by, he didn't include it in his eyes, but he was attracted by the stories of these guys.

"It's not that Huang Erleng is strong, I'm afraid that I will be embarrassed when I go back and make everyone look down on him, mainly because I'm afraid that you will look down on him." Xin Youjian glanced at Lu Xiaoxian, Lu Xiaoxian had no expression, and looked straight ahead. And he said, "It's not bad, it's even worse." One day, the second stunned man suddenly came home early, still holding a roast chicken in his hand. He left the roast chicken for us and said, 'Eat it, I've already eaten it.' Then he hurried out the door. Do you know where this roast chicken came about? ”

"How? You said. ”

Lu Xiaoxian's calm face flashed with a hint of bitterness. If it were usual, he would definitely say that he stole it, but this time he didn't say it.

"Stealing, hahaha. You don't know, the second child of the Su family is sick, and he doesn't know what the disease is, his face is yellow and thin, he has fever and vomiting, and he has stomach trouble. I asked for a doctor, but it's been a few days, and there hasn't been the slightest turnaround. The second stunned saw that it was not a way to go on like this, so he stole a roast chicken and came back to prepare to make up for him and dip it in some oil and water. But others found him and chased him all the way. The guy ran fast, put down the chicken and went out. After a while, I heard someone shouting to catch the thief, and noisily chased in the direction where the second brother left. When he came back in the evening, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and when he asked him, he said that he was okay and slept alone. ”

Xin Youjian seems to have approved the second stunned.

"Then he's still a handle, and he has a little responsibility."

Lu Xiaoxian's face showed relief.

"That's not it, don't look at him in Lihua Town, it's not bad to go out, there is something to eat together, the kind that a chicken leg has to be divided into five portions. Especially after being teased by the shopkeeper, he treated us better. But since the time we stole chickens, we have been targeted by the street gangsters, knowing that we are good bullies from other places. Punching and kicking us, a bit of scare, we can't beat them because there are so many of them. But every time the second brother said that he had no money, he took out a few copper plates for them after being beaten. ”

Xin Youjian said, at a young age, there was a bitter breath on his face.

"Since you can't beat them, just give them directly, why do you have to be beaten?"

Lu Xiaoxian had a trace of bad thoughts in his heart, this is not a lack of beating.

"Look, you're not as good as the second brother. After being beaten, it hurts for a few days and it will be fine, and you can give a lot of money less. If we give it to them, they think we still have money, so they beat us up again and have to give us money a second time. This is the second brother's careful thinking, but his careful thinking is more than that. One day, when the boss of the Su family was sleeping, he inadvertently handed out a cloth bag under the bedboard, which was full of copper coins and a few pieces of broken silver. Everyone was dumbfounded, but the second brother said, "Your hands are very idle, don't move and put them back." At this time, the boss of the Su family asked: "Second brother, are you hiding private money?" 'And guess what? ”

"What's the matter? You said. ”

Lu Xiaoxian was indeed curious when he listened.

Seeing that the brothers' faces were dark, he slowly lay down and told the truth with a smile on his face. It turned out that he had already set his sights on a corner of the street, and he planned to do some business, but he hadn't decided what to do yet. So he secretly saved money, so that he had a way to make a living, and life would be better in the future. As he spoke, he took a bamboo stick in his mouth and crossed Erlang's legs. It's a little cool to look at, but it's a different taste than when you fight. ”

Xin Youjian looked at Lu Xiaoxian and smirked.

Lu Xiaoxian also looked at him and chuckled, "Then he still likes to use his brain." ”

"No, soon he took everyone to get it and sold pork. We have a clear division of labor, he and Da Fat are transported, and the brothers of the Su family are out of the stall. Not bad, business is good. ”

"Everyone has a job, what are you doing with a little kid?"

Lu Xiaoxian looked at Xin Youji, waiting for him to say why.

"Me, I'm big enough, Mr. Tent."

Xin Youjian looked smug.

"Oh, what happened to you?"

"Later, I was bullied, and the big butcher Zhang in the town knew that we were robbing their business, so he asked the gangsters to come and make trouble and beat people all day long, but there was no way at all, and the head of the bastard was the eldest son of the butcher Zhang. Later, he promised to give people a protection fee, two taels of silver per month. But how can we have so much money, only three or four taels of silver a month? Later, the second brother thought about it and gave the money to make himself, so he gave it every month, and it was stable for a while. ”

Xin Youjian will find a tavern in the future, and he will be able to feed a mouth with this mouth.
