Chapter 260: A Heroic Name
Subsequently, Jiang Sanlang personally sent rice, flour, grain, salt, pepper and so on to Li Xu.
He also sent two futons and some cotton cloth to his mother and son. And told him that the vegetables in the garden at the back of the school could be taken as he pleased, because they were left by the previous gentleman.
The cotton cloth and bedding are all spun with cotton, which is snow-white and soft, and Li Xu is stunned.
It was the first time he had seen such a white and soft cloth.
An touched the fabric and said to his son: "Xu'er, it seems that we have come to the right place, the people here are simple, and the people are very kind, although you are teaching here, you can also find time to study, which is much better than at home." ”
Li Xu nodded: "You are right, with you by your side, my son is also at ease, no matter what happens in the future, we must stay here." ”
If he could, he would like to live and work here with his mother for the rest of his life.
Before, Li Xu cleaned up the house and went out for a walk, and saw that every house in this small village was full of green bricks and tiles, and it looked very rich.
Adults and children are also gentle and polite, and they are also neatly dressed, without a trace of hunger and poverty.
Li Xu was very curious, what did this village rely on to get rich.
This is not the case in his hometown, where there are rich and poor in a village, and there is not much interaction between the rich and the poor, even if the children who live in the same village, they will not play together because of the gap between the rich and the poor.
It's like there's an invisible chasm that divides them into two classes.
In the evening, the patriarch's family finally returned.
The people got out of the carriage, and they all wilted like frost-beaten leaves.
They spent two months in the county jail, and although they had not been punished, they were all unkempt, haggard, and thin, like refugees on the run.
Chen Zhu helped his big-bellied wife to go home, and the old lady Tang followed closely with the little demon in her arms.
The patriarch looked at his wife's back, looked at the eldest son and the second son's family, sighed, and said to the two sons: "Jiaxing, Jiazhen, you will live in your uncle's house for the time being, and return to the old village tomorrow." ”
The two sons did not have a house in Nanpo, so they could have lived temporarily at the younger brother Chen Zhu's house, but judging from the younger son's attitude towards the two elder brothers, I am afraid it is impossible.
Chen Jiaxing was speechless, and went to his house at the beckoning of his cousin Chen Shu.
However, Chen Shu said to the patriarch: "Uncle, my house is limited, so I can only take in the eldest brother's family. ”
As for the second cousin's family, he can only ask him to find another place.
The patriarch looked at his little nephew Chen Ting again.
Chen Ting immediately avoided his gaze and turned around and burrowed into the crowd.
Just kidding, his own family still relies on the old lady to eat and drink, where can he entertain the second cousin's family.
Seeing that his younger brother had slipped away, Chen Yin had no choice but to say: "Either the second cousin will go to my house, and my family can still vacate a room, so you will stay for one night." ”
Chen Jiazhen had no opinion, and Han Miaoniang didn't dare to say anything, so the family of four went to her cousin Chen Yin's house.
Patriarch Chen settled his two sons and breathed a sigh of relief, and then returned to his youngest son Chen Zhu's house with his hands behind his back.
His wife, Tang Shili, ignored her husband, went to the stove to boil water by herself, and washed her son, daughter-in-law and grandson.
Chen Fu coughed lightly and said to his wife, "I'll cook the stove, you go and make noodles for them." ”
Tang threw down the fire fork and got up to make peace.
Chen Fu peeked at his old wife and sat silently at the mouth of the stove to add firewood to the fire.
Because of the trouble caused by the second daughter-in-law and the eldest daughter-in-law, the youngest son Chen Zhu's family was affected, and the younger daughter-in-law Shaw had a miscarriage, so Chen Fu did not dare to say anything about the anger of his old wife.
From beginning to end, the youngest son Chen Zhu's family was the most innocent, they didn't know anything, but they were forced to experience an unjustified disaster.
The Shaw family and the little demon stayed in the prison for two months, frightened and hungry, and the mother and son were skinny to a handful of bones.
If it weren't for Jiang Saburo going to hunt Kuai Jin Wu and sending the pills prepared by Sakura Bao again, it is unknown whether the Shaw Brothers and the little demon would have survived to this day.
In the evening, Chen Zhu washed up with his wife and children, ate something, and asked Shaw to take his son Xiaodemon to rest first, and came to his father's house by himself, and said coldly: "Dad, let's divide the household!" ”
He had three brothers, and only the second brother was divided, because the second brother opened a cloth village in the town.
And the household registration of himself and his eldest brother has always been under his father's account, that is, the family is not divided, so he was cheated by the eldest brother one after another.
First, he was tricked to serve in the military, and this time he directly put their family in prison.
If it weren't for Third Brother Jiang and Sakura Bao, I don't know how my family died.
Patriarch Chen was silent for a moment, then opened the box and took out the household registration, "It's okay, early tomorrow morning, I'll take you to Lizheng to re-register your household registration." ”
The younger son's family suffered a great grievance this time, and Chen Fu didn't dare to say anything no matter how dissatisfied with the younger son's attitude, so he took out five ingots of silver from the box and pushed it to him.
"You take this money, take the Shaw Brothers and the little demon to Yingbao to have a good look, and then buy some medicine and come back."
The youngest daughter-in-law, Shao Shi, is already pregnant, and now it should be more than seven months, and this time she was imprisoned, almost killing her with two corpses.
This is one of the reasons why the younger son hates his eldest brother and second brother.
Alas, many sons are debts, and when they are about to grow old, they have to maneuver among their sons.
After this, I am afraid that the position of my patriarch can no longer be passed on to my eldest son.
The second son and the younger son are not good, they have both been in prison, and although they have not been sentenced, they will also be criticized.
Then, I can only let my eldest nephew Chen Shu take over.
Chen Fu touched the thick yellowed Chen family tree, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Unexpectedly, his reputation was ruined by his son's family in his twilight years.
When he enters the underworld one day, what face will he have to meet his father and grandfather?
Luzhou Xiao Mansion.
Xiao Mo asked him to call his younger brother Xiao Chengjun.
He slapped a letter on the table and asked in a cold voice, "Chengjun!" What's going on with you? Why did you leave Jiang's mother and daughter halfway? ”
Xiao Chengjun was stunned for a moment, and then asked nonchalantly: "What?" Did they complain to you? ”
"Xiao Chengjun! Have you read all your books in the belly of a dog? Do you know what is the beginning of the newspaper? Not to mention that the children of the Jiang family have saved your life, just say that she is the person who must be returned safely by the acting king, and you should not throw them halfway. ”
Xiao Chengjun lowered his face, lowered his eyes and stopped talking.
But there are a lot of questions in my heart.
Could it be that the country girl wrote to her eldest brother?
How dare she?
Xiao Mo stared at his younger brother coldly and continued to ask, "Where did you get her five boxes?" ”
Xiao Chengjun frowned, and subconsciously denied: "What box?" ”
Xiao Mo slapped the table and scolded: "Xiao Chengjun! It's a shame that you are the son of a family, and you have done such an unbearable act! Say! Where did the Jiang family's suitcases go? ”
Xiao Chengjun's face turned red, and he said with a stiff neck: "Aren't they just a few broken boxes, brother, what are you yelling at?" ”
"What do I ask you? Xiao Chengjun, where's the box? There are not only the Jiang family's property, but also the gold, silver and cloth given by the emperor, if you can't take it out, you can compensate the Jiang family as it is! ”
"Why do you want me to pay for it?"
Xiao Chengjun was annoyed: "She Jiang family is a pariah, how can she use gold, silver and satin?" I threw those boxes into the river, and if they wanted them, they went to the river to fish them out! ”
