In the early years, the Lu family was a second-class household in Xiaodong Village, and later responded to the front of the Ya, and the family business of Nuoda was tossed away, and now a large family only lives on more than a dozen acres of land.

There is such a situation, but no one sympathizes.

It's just that the reputation of the Lu family is so stinky, even if they are down now, they still bully other people in the village because there are many men in the family.

Whenever the agricultural season is irrigated, the four brothers will stick to the hoe to guard the estuary and the ridge, and they must come to his house first, otherwise it will be a beating and scolding.

Lu Laosi has the worst reputation among the four brothers, stealing chickens and dogs, and molesting widows.

The Lu family lived in the east of the village, with four thatched huts connected together.

In the yard, three children about seven or eight years old were teasing a dirt dog.

Seeing Han Zhen, the three children immediately looked frightened, and one of the eldest children stumbled and asked, "Han Er...... What are you doing here? ”

Han Zhen asked coldly, "Where is Lu Laosi?" ”

"Four...... The fourth uncle slept in the house. ”

Hearing this, Han Zhen walked straight to the thatched hut on the far left.

When the three children saw that the situation was not good, they ran away.

While running towards the field, he shouted: "Dad, it's not good, the fourth uncle has been beaten!" ”

As soon as I entered the room, a sour smell suddenly hit my nose.

Han Zhen frowned, walked into the inner room, and saw Lu Laosi lying on the bed on all fours.

Taking a step forward, Han Zhen grabbed Lu Laosi's placket, dragged him off the bed directly like a chicken.

Lu Laosi woke up from his sleep, his mind was dazed, and he didn't understand what was going on.

By the time he came back to his senses, he had already been dragged into the courtyard by Han Zhen.

Before he could open his mouth, he saw a slap strike.

……

At this time, it was evening, and the villagers were busy with their farm work and were returning home with their hoes.

The shouting of the three children immediately aroused everyone's curiosity, and they ran to the Lu family one after another, gathering around the courtyard to watch the excitement.

In the courtyard, Lu Laosi didn't know how many times he was slapped.

His face was swollen as if he had stuffed two steamed buns, his mouth and nose couldn't stop bleeding, and he knelt on the ground and cried and begged for mercy: "Han Er, I was wrong, I was wrong." I don't dare anymore, please spare me this time. ”

At this time, someone outside the courtyard couldn't help but ask, "Han Er, what happened?" ”

Han Zhen turned his head and said loudly: "I want to teach everyone to know that this guy knocked on my door two nights ago and harassed my sister-in-law." ”

"It's time to fight!"

"Well deserved!"

"Good, good fight!"

On weekdays, these villagers were bullied by the Lu family brothers, and they dared not speak out.

At this moment, seeing Han Zhen beating Lu Laosi, they only felt extremely happy in their hearts, and they applauded one after another.

"Who dares to beat my fourth brother!"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

At this moment, the crowd of onlookers was squeezed away, and the three brothers of the Lu family rushed into the yard with hoes.

It's just that when they saw Han Zhen, their arrogance suddenly dispersed.

The hoe that was originally raised also gradually fell.

The boss of the Lu family swallowed his saliva, and said inwardly: "Han ...... Han Er, why did you beat my fourth brother? ”

"What, you want to help him out?"

Han Zhen took a step forward, and the downhill tiger on his chest seemed to jump out and devour people.

The boss of the Lu family was taken aback, hurriedly retreated, and almost tripped over the second Lu behind him, and his embarrassed appearance caused the villagers to laugh.

The laughter behind him made Boss Lu angry and irritable, but he really couldn't raise his courage in front of Han Zhen, so he could only shout: "Han Er, you beat people for no reason, I want to find the lieutenant chief, and report to the official to arrest you!" ”

Who would have thought that the lieutenant chief would be in the crowd and said loudly: "Lu Da, Lu Laosi is at fault first, and he shouldn't harass Han Zhang's family at night." ”

Boss Lu suddenly shut up.

The countryside pays attention to a rational word, and whoever occupies the reason will be a few points more arrogant when quarrelling.

The lieutenant didn't want to make things bigger, so he began to be a peacemaker, and persuaded: "Han Er, it's good to teach you a lesson, don't make trouble." ”

Han Zhen didn't pay any attention to Boss Lu, grabbed the placket of his clothes and lifted Lu Laosi in the air, and smashed him into the stomach.

For this punch, Han Zhen only used one point of strength.

Otherwise, with a punch with all his strength, with Lu Laosi's thin physique, he would definitely die on the spot.

Fights in the countryside are common, and the government doesn't pay attention to them at all, and they all let the governor deal with them.

But if you kill someone, it's a completely different nature.

But even if he only used a little strength, Lu Laosi was not comfortable, he only felt that his stomach hurt and turned over the river and the sea, and he couldn't stop vomiting bitter water when he lay on the ground.

Han Zhen said coldly: "I'll teach you a lesson today, and next time, I'll break your dog's leg!" ”

With that, he walked away.

The onlookers saw that there was no excitement to see, so they dispersed in a hurry.

Boss Lu stepped forward to help Lu Laosi and sighed: "There are several widows in the village, what do you have to provoke his family." ”

……

Back in his yard, Han Zhang immediately stepped forward.

Facing the other party's concerned eyes, Han Zhen chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law is relieved, but she just taught Lu Laosi a lesson." ”

Han Zhang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Uncle, wait a minute, the meal will be ready soon." ”

In Xiaodong Village, every household lights up a cooking smoke.

The Northern Song Dynasty was a dynasty that connected the past and the next, and it was during this period that three meals a day appeared.

But only a very small number of people can afford to eat three meals, and the vast majority of ordinary people still maintain the habit of two meals.

One meal in the morning and one meal in the evening.

Even if it is as prosperous as Tokyo, the restaurants in the city are not open at noon, only selling breakfast and dinner. Even if some restaurants are open at noon, they don't sell meals, but preserved fruit snacks, which is not a main meal.

It didn't take long for Han Zhang's to cook the rice.

Dinner was wheat rice with a plate of steamed crucian carp.

Wheat rice is now the staple food of the common people in the north, and various grains such as wheat, soybeans, and sorghum are steamed with wild vegetables.

It looks okay, but as for the texture and taste......

From the perspective of a modern person, Han Zhen can only say that dogs don't eat.

But at this moment, he was gobbling up the bowl of food.

No way, hungry!

Two meals a day, who can withstand it?

In particular, Han Zhen is strong and strong, and his physique far surpasses others, even if he lies still all day, the energy consumed by his body is greater than that of ordinary people doing farm work for a day.

Halfway through eating, Han Zhen couldn't help but stop.

It's not a big deal to just eat multigrain wild vegetables, and the half bowl of the stomach is not full at all, but the more you eat, the hungrier you become.

It is estimated that this bowl of wheat rice will be digested in less than an hour.

As for the three crucian carp, they just eat umami, and there is not much meat at all.

In some places, crucian carp is called crucian carp shell, which means that crucian carp has no meat, just an empty shell.

For a while, he couldn't help but think of Liu Yong's money-making proposal in the afternoon......

Seeing him stop, Han Zhang asked cautiously, "Uncle, but the food is not to taste?" ”

Han Zhen smiled: "The food cooked by my sister-in-law is very delicious, but I just thought about something." ”

"Uncle eat more."

Han Zhang said, sandwiching the belly of the fish into his bowl, while he silently gnawed on the fish head.

Seeing this scene, Han Zhen said: "If my sister-in-law has someone she likes, she will remarry." ”

Han Zhang's life was very hard, he lived alone in the village, serving a few acres of dry land, and it was difficult to barely make ends meet.

If it weren't for Han Zhen's help, I am afraid that I would not even be able to afford to eat salt.

The atmosphere of the Northern Song Dynasty was open, and it was common for widows to remarry, and women's festivals were after Cheng Zhu Lixue in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Moreover, Han Zhen is a traverser, and his mind is full of the concepts of the future.

Smack!

Han Zhang's family was like a thunderbolt, the chopsticks in his hand fell, and tears appeared in his eyes: "Uncle doesn't think I obey women's morals?" ”

"Don't think about it."

Han Zhen hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "Sister-in-law is very good, but my eldest brother is not blessed. I just saw that my sister-in-law was having a miserable life alone, and if she remarried, it might be better. ”

Hearing this, Han Zhang's heart felt better, and he said in a complaining tone: "Uncle, don't talk about remarrying, I don't have that mind." Besides, with such an ominous person as me, which good family would dare to marry. ”

Han Da died less than a year after marrying his wife, and because of Han Zhen's prestige, although the people in the village didn't dare to say anything on the surface, they were talking about Han Zhang's life behind their backs.

In ancient times, once a woman was saddled with the name of Kefu, it was difficult to marry someone again.

Although Han Zhen knew that this was a feudal superstition, he couldn't stand the current atmosphere.

Since Han Zhang said so, the matter of remarriage is here, and Han Zhen will not mention it again.
