"Okay, when the time comes, if her mother doesn't let you, she will say that I called it."

Lin Lan'er got the letter and ran away happily.

Some of the homes that haven't been home for months have collapsed, and those that haven't collapsed are all in shambles. The whole village was busy, and the busiest was Wang Yuan.

The Lin family has a lot of labor, and in the small yard, except for Song Jing, several big men seem to be working hard in one breath, if it weren't for the lack of materials now, Yang Qin would not even like to climb up the roof of the Lin family to repair it.

The most idle in the family are Lin Fengqin and Song Jing, and even Gu Chengyuan is helping Lin Dahe clean up the debris. The two of them sat on wicker chairs and rested.

"Auntie, I still want to eat that fried melon seed."

Song Jing didn't think of himself as an outsider at all, he touched the empty plate on the table in front of him, and pleaded.

"Okay, you wait for me to get it for you."

Lin Fengqin, who agreed, got up and went back to the house, and Song Jing's eyes fell on Gu Chengyuan, who was scanning the yard expressionlessly.

In the past few months, the teenager has smoked a lot, and he is not fat in the first place, and he looks thinner and thinner at this time.

"I think next time, I can let my eighth cousin also come to live at my mother's house for a while."

Listening to Song Jing's muttering, Gu Chengyuan angrily lifted the broom.

When Lin Fengqin, who went back to the house and filled a plate full of melon seeds, came out, he bumped into Lin Dahe, who was walking quickly, and he was followed by Yang Qin and He Yu.

"Do you want to rest?"

Looking at the three people with strange faces, Lin Fengqin asked.

Yang Qin and the two looked at Lin Dahe together, while the latter looked at what Lin Fengqin was carrying, and took the plate in her hand: "There is still a little work left, and it will be done later." ”

"Just something, I can take it."

For the first time, Lin Fengqin felt like a cripple.

But Lin Dahe himself was stubborn, as if he hadn't heard her, he turned around and sent the plate to the table outside.

"Thank you, Brother Lin."

Song Jing's words of thanks made Lin Dahe's stiff face slow down.

Then, as if thinking of something, he hesitated for a moment before Lin Dahe said to Song Jing, who was sipping melon seeds: "Lord Song, if you can be an official as big as you, will you have enough rights to protect your family?" ”

Song Jing was stunned for a moment, and his movements of swallowing melon seeds slowed down by half a beat, and then he smiled: "Don't look at me as a minister of the Qincha, in fact, I am just blessed by the shadow of the ancestors." ”

Seeing that he didn't seem to understand, Song Jing sat up straight and patted the rattan chair on the side and motioned for Lin Dahe to sit down.

Lin Dahe hesitated for a moment before sitting down.

"If you want to say that the most power is the emperor, but even if you are the emperor, you can't do what you want."

"The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, if you want to say that you just want to protect your family, you see that in this Yuchun County, it is enough for an official as big as the county order."

"But if you get to the capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even the prefect is not enough to see."

"In addition to the big and small officials in the capital, there are also nobles everywhere, and any one of them can be tied to some powerful people."

In order to make Lin Dahe understand, Song Jing's tone was slow, but in the end, Lin Dahe furrowed his brows fiercely, and his expression seemed to understand.

"Does that mean that no matter what happens, the common people will only have to suffer?"

After living for more than 20 years, Lin Dahe felt the unfairness of this world for the first time.

As he was talking, Lin Fengqin, who didn't know when he came over, sighed behind the two of them, and opened his mouth to say: "Sometimes if you don't want to bear it, you have to bear it, and if you fall behind, you will be beaten." ”

Regarding the matter of being bullied, Lin Fengqin thought of her previous life and felt that she had enough right to speak.

The concise and straightforward words made everyone, including Song Jing, stunned, among which Yang Qin and He Yu were the most empathetic.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten!

"Isn't it! Just like the Turkic people are arrogant and domineering, but every year around the beginning of winter, the court has to give them more tribute gifts after accepting their tribute! ”

Thinking that the Turks returned with a large number of tributes, and sometimes they could only eat dry and hard steamed buns in winter, Yang Qin felt that his blood rushed straight to his brain.

The beam is said to be a strong country, but with the passage from generation to generation, the beam at this time has long lost its previous hardness. There was always a sense of powerlessness against the Turks who occasionally disturbed the borders.

They are barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes. It can be a big beam, a beating, and a loss of money and labor. If you don't fight, the people on the border will be just as miserable.

If Daliang still has the same national strength as when he founded the country, even the Turks can only shrink their necks and pretend to be grandchildren.

The topic was far away, Lin Dahe looked at the indignant Yang Qin and the others, and suddenly thought about it.

*

Until nightfall.

Wang Yuancai gathered the strangers who came back and the collapsed houses in the village into the ancestral hall. At that time, the ancestral hall that was intended to be used as a private school was just enough to accommodate so many dozens of people at this time.

"Sister Xiaoni, my grandmother said you have to go back with me." Lin Lan'er dragged Li Xiaoni, who was full of embarrassment, regardless of it.

Just now she saw Aunt Lian pinching Sister Xiaoni!

"Lan'er, do you think you want to bring your Tie Niu brother back?" At this time, Zhang Lian squeezed forward and smiled at Lin Lan'er, dragged her daughter, and pushed her son forward.

Her house was the first in the village to collapse, and now when she comes back, she sees that even the other half of it has grown weeds.

Not to mention people, there is no place to hide from the rain for chickens.

These days, Zhang Lian has seen the changes in the Lin family, and even the little thought of wanting to rebel has been crushed, just thinking that her son can have a good relationship with the Lin family, and if she lives in the Lin family, she will definitely not worry about food or hunger.

Who knew that Lin Lan'er didn't eat her, and pulled Li Xiaoni, who was dragged back two steps.

"Aunt Zhang, I don't dare to take Tie Niu back, you can save the time when you say I robbed your son! Besides, Tie Niu is still a male doll with no relatives and no reason, what kind of business is it to go back to live with me? Could it be that you want him to go to the Lin family as a son-in-law? ”

Hearing this, Zhang Lian suddenly turned black and red, and opened her mouth and said, "Fart!" How can my good iron bull be a door-to-door son-in-law?! ”

The two sons of Li Dahu's family are as precious as eyeballs, even if they are not hungry and cold these days, but the couple has a mouthful, but they have all saved it into the stomachs of Li Tieniu and the brothers.

"I don't have to worry about my aunt if I can't fart, but Aunt Zhang, don't worry, even if I am an old sister-in-law who can't get married at home, I can't look down on your two sons!"

After speaking, Lin Lan'er dragged Li Xiaoni away without waiting for Zhang Lian to scold.

Zhang Lian's face was blue with anger, but the people around her were all red because of the laughter.

"Okay, Dahu's family, if you don't like this, it's better to go back."

Wang Yuan opened his mouth at the right time and let Zhang Lian swallow the scolding that came to her mouth, and she hurriedly squeezed out a smile: "Li Zheng, what did you say, I, how could I dislike it?" ”

"Oh, then don't dislike you and you have to send the iron bull to the Lin family?"

In an instant, Zhang Lian was blocked and speechless.
