Although he is greedy and can eat, he doesn't want to eat that bite, but he thinks about people very tightly, let alone his mother and sister-in-law, he has been away from home for a long time, and he even thinks about the second dog, remembering how happy the family is when they are together, how to make people's hearts iron, and it is nothing to say a word or two about the two dogs.

He put away the letter and carefully put it under the pillow, since he followed Xiang Jia, he became the leader of the squad again, and his living conditions were much better, he would press all the letters given to him by the family under the pillow, and he would wait for a while to find an iron box, and put all the letters in the iron box, so that it would be convenient to bring them wherever he went.

He packed up his things, walked out of the tent, lifted the curtains, and looked at the sky outside the barracks.

No matter how good the Xiang family is to him, he still feels bored in his heart, and the military discipline on the Xiang family's side is not good, and he still doesn't like it very much in his eyes, and no matter how beautiful the Xiang family is, he still feels that this kind of army is a little boring.

He loves to fight, but he really doesn't like much when he stays, and when he is hooked by that letter, his soul is about to drift away.

I just want to go home, I want to go home.

Everyone is going to get together, and they are waiting for him.

This battle must be over as soon as possible.

Lin Piao waited in Shangjing, during this time they were still building porridge sheds for relief, because the weather gradually cooled down and began to frost, Lin Piao asked Yuemingfang to make a batch of the cheapest and simplest autumn clothes with thin cotton and send them to the outside of the city for distribution.

Disaster relief has the advantage of having a bowl of porridge to feed a human life, but it also has the disadvantage that people who have food take root and don't want to move, and only a small part of them want to find other livelihoods and places to settle down and make plans for the winter, while most of them live one day at a time.

When the people who went out to give porridge came back to tell them about this, they all looked disgusted: "They were too lazy to die, and they didn't want to do things with their hands and feet, and they didn't want to find another way out, so they guarded the porridge shed every day, ate day by day, and froze to death in winter." ”

Lin Piao shook his head: "It's one thing to be lazy, but there's another thing, it's the fear that they can come here, and it's hard to have such a bite to eat, and if they are a little timid, they don't dare to go to other places, for fear of accidents on the way, for fear that there will be no food on the road, and for fear that there will be no one to give porridge in the back place." ”

After all, in this era, there is no escape strategy, and it can still mark the location, tell everyone where to gather, where to get porridge, where to find supplies, and every time you look for a new way, without sufficient support and support, you are like a headless fly.

But Lin Piao also had a headache, and he couldn't watch people starve to death and die of cold, but it was too big for him to be responsible for everything.

"Doesn't the government mean to control at all?"

"The government doesn't want them to enter Beijing and affect it, because they are afraid that there will be some chickens and dogs stealing when they come to Beijing, not to mention that they have no place to live in Beijing, and when the time comes, they will only sleep on the streets, and in the winter there will be no one to help them, and how ugly it will be to die of cold death on the streets."

Lin Piao shook his head, the government was thinking quite long-term, knowing that they would have nowhere to go if they came in like this, either they would not do good deeds, or they would die of cold death in winter, and instead of such a thing happening in Shangjing, it would be better to let them die of cold outside, anyway, it was another very good reason, I don't know how many people died on the way to escape, and they were afraid that they would be turned away because of the epidemic.

"Write me a list of the people who are still building porridge sheds outside the city and are cooking porridge, and if you know where they live, write down their addresses, and then give them to Da Zhuang, saying that I will make a small textile factory and spin some simple cotton and linen materials, and set them up on the outskirts of Shangjing, so that those who have fled here and do not want to leave can come and have a job to make a living, and let Da Zhuang ask them if they are willing to do it together, and I want Da Zhuang to ask if they will agree to meet these men in the family who have ideas."

Lin Piao thought about letting Xiaoyue go in the second round, if the man didn't agree, he would ask the housekeeper what he meant, after all, it wouldn't cost a few dollars, the land in the suburbs was convenient, build a big house, buy some textile machines, use one side as a work area, the other half as a dormitory, and then get a canteen out, some to eat and sleep, and a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

When his subordinates heard Lin Piao say this, they nodded again and again, respectfully retreated to write the list, and then turned to hand over the matter to Da Zhuang.

Da Zhuang was not as surprised as other subordinates when he heard this, after all, the little sister-in-law was the one who specially brought Juan'er out of the embroidery workshop, and the little sister-in-law was such a person.

"Little sister-in-law, there is no one who agrees."

"Why? What do you see for the reason? I also decided to let Xiao Yue visit again, take the path of the back house, and ask the lady of the back house what she thinks. ”

"Then this matter still has to go the way of the back house, most of the ladies are kind-hearted, this soup soup is either pretend, or the lady in the back house believes in Buddhism and wants to do good deeds, these few adults are estimated to rarely take care of these things, to build a small textile mill, they are very tired, feel that they have already produced food, let people go to the soup kitchen, how can they continue to do things for them, after all, the soup soup has been going on for so long, they have long felt bored, but the soup soup does not cost a few dollars, so they have been doing this."

Lin Piao nodded, and then went to ask Xiaoyue to ask the ladies of these people's houses, but there were one or two who were willing, saying that they didn't know how to do it, but they wanted to do good deeds in their hearts, and they were willing to give money, so they asked Lin Piao to take the lead.

Lin Piao originally wanted to be lazy and asked if anyone was willing to do it together, so that at least things would be divided into different parts, but he didn't expect it to fall on him in the end.

"Forget it, let me get out of the way, if this world doesn't work without me." Lin Piao comforted himself, imagined his appearance in gold, and began to go to the masons and builders, and bought a piece of land to repair the textile workshop.

After all, although the land in the suburbs is convenient, the houses are very expensive, after all, they are all people's vacation houses, and the degree of refinement is very high, and the money to buy them as factories is enough to repair two textile factories.

Lin Piao's simplest plan for the house is to repair it as quickly as possible, the space should be large, the layout should be wide, the planning should be reasonable, and then the rest room should be larger, and one room can fit four small beds.

Halfway through the repair, Lin Piao asked the people who were willing to work to register and move in first, after all, even if he didn't let them live in, there were roof tiles that could shelter them from the wind and rain, and they themselves would sneak in at night and spend the night in it.

Lin Piao and them agreed on three chapters, as long as the equipment is ready, they will start to do work, if they don't do the work, they will be kicked out, and warned them not to think that he is good at bullying, he is in business, if he is cheating and cheating, he will not be able to tolerate it.

Everyone naturally nodded again and again, and some people were very frightened, saying that they couldn't weave what to do, Lin Piao said that it was okay, and naturally arranged people to teach, anyway, cotton and linen this kind of fabric is very simple, especially for the fabric that is not particular about the process, basically there is a hand, mainly boring and continuous repetition consumes people's patience.

In the process of repairing the house, Lin Piao had already set up the looms, and when the other half of the roof was completely covered, he brought in the looms and began to train them, women and men had to weave, and they really thought that this work was boring, so they were responsible for going to the nearby mountains to chop wood and chop wood, and bring the firewood back for the kitchen in the courtyard hereRoast pork ribs and roast pig's trotters or something.

Lin Piao took out the fabrics they weaved and sold them, not taking the road of Yuemingfang, after all, these cloths are too many times, and now Yuemingfang is basically full of silk and satin in addition to the linen used in the homecoming clothes.

However, there is always a basic market, and although it is convenient, it can also be sold, and there is no problem in selling it to ordinary people in Beijing, and these things are used as tablecloths and hand towels, and the consumption is still very large.

After weaving, Lin Piao asked someone to teach them more delicate weaving, so that the selling price of the output could be slowly raised, and there were also a few younger women and brothers, and later learned that he still had an embroidery workshop in his hand, so he tried to please him, and wanted to go to the embroidery workshop to learn embroidery, Lin Piao naturally agreed, turned them into apprentices in the embroidery workshop, and entrusted a small relationship to let them enter Shangjing.

Anyway, the woman and her brother have no problems, and what they are most afraid of is that the man is lazy and wants to continue to live here, chopping wood slowly, only thinking about a turnip and a pit anyway, and now that the days have settled down, there is no need to worry.

Lin Piao then sent a house slave from the house who would take care of a little bit of things on weekdays, and asked him to be responsible for cleaning up these people and making them understand the rules.

Slowly, they also knew that although Lin Piao was easy to talk to, he didn't leave everything up to them, and when they found someone to teach them a lesson, they still smiled, and they were reasonable, and if they had other ambitions, they would definitely not force them to stay.

Lin Piao couldn't bear to watch people starve to death and freeze to death, he was not a living bodhisattva, but he would not be lazy and continue to offer.

I am busy with these things in my hands, and when the things here are arranged a little clearer, the things on the second dog's side have been completed.

It is said that the county officials from Zhizhou to seven or eight counties have been found out, and the emperor is furious and wants to get to the end, and they are now on their way back to Beijing.

When Ergou came back, Ergou was busy for a while, and he followed his life and followed their boss again, and it took three days before he stopped and settled down at home.

The crowd sat around and waited to hear his story about him outside.

When Ergou saw this posture, he was naturally full of pride, and began to talk about their affairs outside.

"We went down from Shangjing, and we saw a lot along the way, and naturally it was the seer Zhizhou, who said that he would investigate thoroughly, but he didn't know what was going on underneath, anyway, these people were very hard-mouthed, and they were all the top responsible, but after asking and not knowing, he said that the grain was sent down, so we could only go down to check again, and this time and again we found that these people all had problems, and Zhizhou was greedy for a batch of grain, thinking that the people below could live by drinking some thin porridge, after all, the price of grain is high now, and he was greedy and sold it, which is a lot of money. When they peeled down layer by layer, not to mention that they were thinking about selling it for money, they all took grain as the root of their lives, and they just wanted to hold it in their hands, afraid that they would not be able to eat enough, that their relatives and friends would not be able to eat enough, and that they did not want to share it with others. ”

"Later, we had a round of confrontations, and naturally we knew that the governor had taken the lion's share, but the governor knew that the matter was so big that he actually wanted to bribe us, and we ate his kind there, so we immediately tied him up and imprisoned him, and several people under his command were also directly cut down on the spot, forcing the people in charge of his affairs to open a warehouse to release grain, and they were so frightened that their legs trembled." Ergou talked about these things vividly, but he knew why he always wanted to hide some things from his family, and he always felt that he couldn't talk to his family.

This is indeed what happened, and it was true that the governor wanted to bribe them, and a table of good wine and good food was set up, and the people outside were about to starve to death, but the table was full of chicken, duck, fish, and meat, as well as dried abalone and dried scallops.

However, what the governor did was to prepare with both hands, and if they agreed to go along with the dirt and share the spoils, everyone would share a share of the spoils, and the governor would be willing to give them both the small and the big ones.

Either the fish are dead and the net is broken, and the governor has already called people to ambush outside, and if they are really hard-mouthed, they will come in and hack them to death, and then say that they have been killed by a rogue.

Ergou was not afraid of being hacked to death, because he watched several bosses weigh it and saw that he was about to enter the account sharing link, and the scene was very harmonious.

He immediately took out the dagger hidden in the waistband of his trousers, rushed up and strangled Zhizhou's neck, the dagger was on the side of his neck, and shouted: "Don't move, no one outside is allowed to come in, my lord, don't worry, I will never let him succeed, don't try to threaten your lordship, I will protect you!" ”

The people outside rushed in, and Ergou raised his hand, pierced a bloody hole in Zhizhou's shoulder, and stared at the group: "Get out!" Otherwise, I'll stab him in the neck. ”

Ergou didn't know where he had the courage to come from at that time, maybe he thought that there were so many people in Shangjing who wanted him to become a character, and he saw Shen Hong, who was eating porridge every day and digging ditches in the organization, everyone had paid too much for this matter, and he didn't want to let the people who really deserve punishment escape in this link.

Ergou first forced Zhizhou to open a warehouse to release grain, and although most of the grain was sold, they still kept a lot of the part they ate at home, and it was full of money.

He actually felt that he might be dead, in all senses, he broke this good thing, Zhizhou is gone, these superiors may not be treated to him, so he is particularly fierce and brave, and then called two Zhizhou's cronies to come in, knowing that these two people are Zhizhou's followers, usually the most idea, let another guard grab Zhizhou, tell them not to bring weapons, come in to discuss the exchange of terms, the two dogs did not discuss, while they did not react, hid on the side of the door, and went up with a knife to cut these two people.

When the governor was charged, he had no idea left, so he rushed forward with such a hard head, looking at the shocked eyes of the adults, knowing that he had at least done it, so he smiled.

"My lord, it's okay, please sit down and rest."

As a result, the current situation came to an end, and several adults praised him vigorously, saying that the situation was not good, and he heroically rushed up and directly subdued Zhizhou, and then lured and killed two of Zhizhou's henchmen in a trick, so that the situation could be reversed and they could be carried out without threat.

It is estimated that this matter will not spread too much to the outside, so Ergou will omit it.

Lin Piao and his second aunt Uncle Qiu collectively applauded him after hearing this: "Amazing, too powerful, you have worked too hard all this way, you must have put a lot of effort into the saddle before and after the horse, although it is on the surface the merit of others, but there must also be a great credit to you." ”

"That's for sure." Ergou patted his chest: "Needless to say, my credit must be the greatest." ”

"Yes, Ergou has always been the most clever person in the family!" The second aunt and Uncle Qiu also praised it, and Juan'er Xiaoyue also patted the sycophants next to her, beating the side drum and setting me to the rhythm, and everyone slapped the second dog comfortably.

He also prepared a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust, and there was no reception banquet for him outside, but at home, he could eat for three days in a row, and there was delicious food for him.

Ergou was cool for a few days, and he was particularly afraid that he would be regarded as a thorn in the flesh by the officials who accompanied him, and he would make things difficult for them, but they did not react at all, and they always put the credit on him, and every time he showed his merits, he had to publicize his deeds, and he did not have any attacks on him in private.

Ergou knew that there was a problem with this matter, but he couldn't find anything wrong at the moment, maybe everyone wanted to settle the matter and pretend that there was no such thing and passed.

Anyway, he is out of the woods, and his promotion is just around the corner, and His Majesty also knows what he has done, and generally appreciates him.

He can be regarded as relying on what he has done on his own to put his name in front of His Majesty.

Lin Piao felt that Ergou had achieved such a feat in the late autumn, which was already quite good this year, but it didn't take long for him to hear news from the border again, saying that Huchen had gone crazy again, and he had led people to ambush him again and again.

Xiang Jia proposed the identity of an assistant lieutenant to Erzhu, and specially allocated a group of people to him, just like a death squad, specifically following Erzhu to charge.

At first, when they heard the news, their first reaction was to worry, thinking that it was too dangerous to see how things had come to this.

But after a long time, Lin Piao also understood how to train a strong heart, and he was really rolling in the wind and waves a lot, and he couldn't worry about it, so he could only say that it was just that.

Even the second aunt is difficult to evaluate this matter, and can only wish him success: "After all, his reckless temperament may not be changed in this life, and Aichong is not a bad thing, anyway, the one who can't rush on the battlefield is the one who is a bad seed, not to mention that he is also good at martial arts, and he can still twist the heads of the two of them again if he really falls into the trap, so let's ask God to worship the Buddha, and hope that God will bless him a little more, and there is nothing else to do about it." ”

At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, they are too idle to do much, so they take turns to accompany the second aunt to the temple, which will provide some rooms, where they can worship the Buddha and recite the scriptures, copy the scriptures, the second aunt often stays in it for half a day, they take shifts to accompany them, sometimes they really can't hold it and let the autumn rain and summer he do the work, although the autumn rain and summer lotus are not very keen on worshiping the Buddha, but this is regarded as an experience project, copying Buddhist scriptures is regarded as knowledge study, but can also endure the temperament and do not feel uncomfortable.

At first, she wanted to accumulate some merits for Erzhu, hoping that Erzhu would be blessed, but after listening to the Dharma taught by the Venerable Master, she was told that she was going to eat vegetarian fasting, and she spent all day in the small courtyard pounding his fried cabbage and boiling fried cowpea and dried cowpeas, so that her skin was wrinkled.

After all, in early winter, unlike modern times, vegetarians can still have a variety of vegetable options, and now vegetarian only cabbage and tofu, otherwise gluten fungus, or those sun-dried vegetables.

It is said that they still have a cycle of worshipping the Buddha, for example, they are not vegetarian for the rest of their lives, but if they make a wish for a certain period of time, they will not be able to eat meat during that time.

Later, the presiding officer of the temple saw that the second aunt was very willing to pay for sesame oil, so he resolutely wanted to get her out of the sea of suffering, and taught her the Fa, from abstaining from meat and fishiness to not creating karma, and every time she came back after listening to the Fa, she would spread this new knowledge at home.

The second aunt fell deeper and deeper, and later even gave herself the name of a layman, in addition to going to the temple, she also had to practice hard at home.

Lin Piao saw that the situation was wrong and wanted to persuade him, but the second aunt told him very carefully: "Piao'er, you must not persuade me, if I don't want to get me to come by myself, don't persuade me, if you persuade me, this sin will have to be counted on your head again, and it is a big sin to break the relationship of Buddha and Buddha." ”

The second aunt was obviously very afraid of accidentally injuring her family and making them bear this sin, so she made a special notice and told them what they could and could not say, such as what they could not say and what they could not say about the Buddha, and they could not persuade her not to worship the Buddha.

Lin Piao thought to himself that this logic was quite closed-loop, but he didn't understand metaphysics after all, not to mention that the second aunt needed this psychological comfort very much, so Lin Piao didn't say anything.

Until one day the second aunt came back from the temple quite unhappy, she did not shout, only put on a face, saying that she would not worship the Buddha in the future, and only recited sutras in front of the portrait of the Bodhisattva at home, and begged for herself.

Lin Piao hurriedly asked what was wrong.

The second aunt was always unhappy: "This is also a sin, that is also a sin, and I can't live a life, and I told me that it is also a big sin for us to sell meat in Tongxilou, and asked me to close Tongxilou or make it a vegetarian shop." ”

Lin Piao, about the presiding over the second aunt, was very diligent, made rapid progress and adapted well, and in a short time became a pious layman, so he preached the Dharma again and widened some of the terms of sin.

Whether it is the beginning of coming out of the village, starting from selling barbecue in a small stove in the county government, or all the way to the current Tongxi Building, it is very important to them.

The second aunt can accept anything else, but ask her to give up Tongxi Building, one is everyone's hard work, why should she be the master, but she can't be the master!

The second aunt quickly retreated, and only occasionally went to the temple to offer some sesame oil, and at other times helped Erzhu accumulate blessings at home, Lin Piao expressed his support, and one-on-one communication with the Bodhisattva was definitely more cost-effective than having a middleman who presided over the difference.

I don't know if it was because the second aunt was reciting the Buddha too hard during this time, but in November, news suddenly came that the border had won a great victory, that the Zhuyue Department had been surrendered, and that the army was about to return to the court.

They also don't know what is going on, the information is spreading too slowly, they just know that everyone has said that they have won, and the details have not yet been disseminated.

About five days later, Han Xiu sent someone to find him and kindly informed them, saying that the second prince had petitioned His Majesty to ask Shen Hong to elect a reliable candidate to continue repairing the ditch and to transfer Shen Hong back.

Lin Piao was stunned, thinking that this time he was going to come back.

It was not until the details of the border battle spread that they learned that the surrender of the Chu Yue Department was completely fought by Erzhu, and that his fighting style was very fierce throughout the autumn, and that the young man was full of vigor and blood, and that he had the strength to kill the gods in the face of the gods.

After entering the second pillar of winter, he proposed, I don't want to continue to entangle with the Yuebu, it's like playing chess, you take one step at a time, and he can't stand it anymore.

His plan was very simple, he took a team of people, disguised himself, infiltrated the Moon Division, ambushed inside, and eliminated the boss of the Moon Division, and then they should join forces inside and outside.

It is said that when he knocked out the moon department, the second pillar was already exhausted, and it seemed that he had not eaten for a few days, and he did not know what the specific situation was, but he suffered and succeeded.

The second aunt was happy at home, worshipping the Buddha and feasting, whether it was heavenly or earthly, she was so happy that she wanted to entertain her.

Although the news from Erzhu's side came first, it couldn't stand Shen Hong's side closer, and he traveled lightly, and he didn't need to follow the big team, so on a snowy day in the middle of winter, it was Shen Hong who returned first.
