Chapter 1: The Soul's Brother
Ye Yuqing's sobriety again was prompted by the sound of slamming the door.
"The people of the six courtyards, and those who are panting, will come out alone, and if they can't do heavy work, they will help do some light work, and Ye's Villa will become a mass grave. When spring begins, if there is a plague in our villa, we will not be able to avoid natural disasters if we avoid man-made disasters. "There was a polite knock on the door at the gate.
"Where are there still people alive in that courtyard, a young lady who was offered to heaven was smashed in the second palace repair, and when she came back, she had only one breath left. The eight-year-old boy was shot with two arrows during the hunt of the new emperor, and when he was brought back, he collapsed and fell silent, and there was a ten-month-old baby, who should have starved to death if no one fed him these days. The two sons of the main family and the maid-in-law died when they first came out. Alas, it's hard to live these days, or the aunt on the left and the aunt on the right, how can you starve a ten-month-old baby to death, so you can leave a root for this yard. An old voice said.
"Whoever chews the root of his tongue is full of, the young and strong men are all dead, who dares to go out casually. Why don't you take a hand and take the baby to your own home? The world is in chaos, which yard has no dead people, leaving a bunch of old women and little dolls, I don't know how I will live in the future, how can I be in the mood to take care of other people's affairs. A person who didn't see it knew that it was a harsh voice just by listening to it, and it passed through the wooden door into Ye Yuqing's ears.
"Wow, wow, wow..."The little baby next to Ye Yuqing cried again, the cry was not very loud, and he kept crying.
"Alas, brother, don't cry, sister, get up and make you some rice soup to drink." Ye Yuqing said that his two arms sat up weakly on the bed board, turned his head to look at the little baby, and couldn't help but gasp.
The little baby was already pale without a trace of blood, and his whole body was hard and dead. Ye Yuqing was instantly confused, how could a dead baby still cry? She didn't have time to put on her shoes and reached out to reach out to the other brother's snort, and sure enough, she was already dead. In a flash of light, the things that had been stuffed into my mind after the coma were reorganized.
This is the sixth courtyard of Ye's Villa, the head of the family is his aunt and father, and there are two cousins and a cousin in the family. When the palace changed, the aunt and uncle were called into the palace to help the new emperor repair the palace, and none of the accompanying maids and mother-in-law came back alive. Later, the palace changed, and the cousin went with himself to help the children of the new emperor drive away the beasts in the hunting grounds, but the result was used as a live target, the cousin was shot dead on the spot, and he was sent back to the villa with a broken leg, and he was always groggy and taken care of by his eight-year-old cousin, and I don't know what happened later. After I woke up, I sadly found that my soul was pierced. The modern self was drowned in an ancient tomb during a flash flood, and at that time he was painting one of the eyes in the mural.
Ye Yuqing turned over the body of his eldest brother, just like the memory stuffed into his mind, the little boy who was only eight years old was already a cute little handsome guy. It's a pity that he was born at the wrong time and finished his life early, and the baby who was just ten months old died before he could stand up and look at the world. There are even aunts, aunts and cousins, who love themselves more than their own children, and they don't even know how they died when they entered the palace, and the corpses are still piled up at the gate of the villa.
People have traveled through a prosperous era of Changping, or a princess or something, but they haven't even won the consolation prize to catch up with the fashion, and they have traveled to an era of palace changes in troubled times, and the aunt's house in the villa without a father and mother, and finally even the aunt's family died. Sadness and sadness urge sadness, how can a sad word be spoken. Ye Yuqing urged sadly in his heart, moved the two handsome younger brothers together, stretched out his fingers to trace the lines of the faces of the two younger brothers, and big tears flowed down.
"There has been no movement for such a long time, and it has long been said that everyone is dead, and you still don't believe it, but you hear the cry of children every day. This courtyard is connected to my yard, and it will belong to our seventh courtyard in the future. Go and ask your grandmother to come over and help transport the corpses outside, don't say we take advantage, we have two people working in this yard. It was that mean voice, Ye Yuqing remembered that this was his cousin's aunt.
"Why does this courtyard belong to your seven courtyards, can your old lady do work, it is estimated that she will die of exhaustion if she can't walk to the gate. This yard is also connected to ours, and it is better to have two widows in my house than an old lady in your house who has to pant for her own air. My cousin's aunt said rudely.
"Which onion is your house, we have the same surname, you are far away, saying that my aunt doesn't know how many miles away. Even if the clan elders come, it is impossible for this courtyard to be returned to you. ”
"Clan elder, where is there still a clan elder, there are a few more than nursing children with handles. Who to judge, who has more people has the final say. ”
"That's a lot of people...... Smash the door open and get the dead children out first, this yard will live for the living. ”
Bang, the sound of slamming the door completely provoked Ye Yuqing, made, it's really not a good life. She muttered in her mouth, tidied up the clothes of her two younger brothers, drew a circle in the place of her heart, and said, "Wait for my sister, my sister will bury you in a bright spring place." With that, he straightened his clothes and walked out of the house.
This yard is so big! Ye Yuqing sighed in his heart, there are more than a dozen rooms in the backyard, and the front yard is much bigger than the backyard. The house is surrounded by vegetable patches and trees, and it is no wonder that such a yard is in mind. It is several times larger and quaint than the courtyard that has been preserved at a great price in modern times. The memories stuffed in my mind coincided with what my eyes saw, and a sense of substitution arose. If you live in place of the ancient Ye Yuqing, you should live a vigorous life, and any changes in the palace in troubled times are floating clouds.
There was a sound of the wooden door cracking on the side of the gate, and Ye Yuqing also happened to walk to the front yard, and Kankan opened the vermilion gate before the gate collapsed. Several women outside were of different ages, and those who stretched out their arms and legs were frightened: "You're not dead!" ”
"Seventh Uncle, Miss Ben is not dead, you are disappointed. It's not to go to the gate of the villa to carry the dead body, what's the matter with smashing the door of our house? Ye Yuqing asked with a sneer.
"I haven't moved for a long time, who knows if your courtyard is lazy, so I can only smash open the gate to see."
"Really? I thought that the seventh aunt couldn't wait to occupy the courtyard of my aunt's house. ”
"Yuqing's niece, your seventh aunt is that mind, and said that you are a surname, and the courtyard is not even with you, and this courtyard should belong to their seventh courtyard."
"Aunt Cousin, Miss Ben's aunt and aunt are gone, and I'm still here, and it's not your turn to divide this yard."
"You're here, who are you? You are also a foreigner who lives here, does this courtyard have the qualifications for you to speak? ”
"Seventh uncle, this is our family matter, my aunt and aunt are gone, Miss Ben will guard this family business for them, does this have anything to do with you?"
"Sharp teeth, I don't know where you came from, we have to decide on this yard. When the imperial court recovers, I will find the yamen officials to evaluate the evaluation table, we are all outsiders, and you are not your own family. ”
"Her cousin, what you said is reasonable, let's wait for the court to restore and call the yamen to comment and comment." The women in the two courtyards, who were still pinching each other just now, are standing on a front at this moment.
"I really don't know what to say, Seventh Auntie, Aunt Cousin, don't you think you're too greedy?" At this moment, eight-year-old Ye Jing came to the gate with ten months old Ye Wen in his arms.
"You're not dead? How is this possible? The seventh aunt and the cousin asked in surprise that they could stuff a bun into their mouths.
"You guys?" Ye Yuqing was also stunned, the two younger brothers who had been dead for a few days didn't know how they lived.
