Chapter 169: Ali's Tribute
"Uncle, what does Xiaojing call you?"
"My surname is Lin, Xiaojing just calls me Uncle Lin. β
"Why didn't my uncle eat it? such fragrant rice, and wild vegetables fried in lard. It's been months to have such a good meal. β
Lin Zhanqing suddenly felt a sadness in his heart, his eyes were a little red, and he didn't know what to say in the face of Xiaojing.
Ali and Yingshui saw Lin Zhanqing like this, and their faces were a little sneering. Yingshui smiled shallowly and restrained.
Ali was different, and the ridicule was not enough, and she said:
"This little brother Lin is still a big young master in the city, isn't it?
Lin Zhanqing didn't reply, only gave his bowl to Xiaojing.
Xiao Jing just finished eating his bowl of white rice, looked at Lin Zhanqing, scratched his head strangely, and asked:
"Why don't you eat Uncle Lin and give it to me? Xiaojing has eaten it, Uncle Lin hurry up and eat it. β
Lin Zhanqing smiled lightly and said:
"My uncle ate two large bowls of rice at the village chief Atai's house at noon, and now he can't digest it and can't eat it. Xiaojing hurry up and eat. β
Xiao Jing looked at the big bowl of white rice handed over by Lin Zhanqing, and swallowed hard, as if he was afraid that Lin Zhanqing would regret it, and asked again,
"Uncle Lin really doesn't eat it?"
"Uncle doesn't eat. β
Xiao Jing hurriedly brought the bowl in Lin Zhanqing's hand, because the bowl was too big, Xiao Jing held it with both hands, and he was just able to hold it steadily.
Xiao Jing took Lin Zhanqing's big bowl of white rice, but didn't give it to himself. Instead, it was immediately served to Ali and Yingshui. Said:
"Mother, auntie. Such delicious white rice, if my uncle doesn't eat it, it must be left for Xiaojing to eat. Xiaojing doesn't eat it, Xiaojing leaves it for his mother and aunt to eat. β
Ali and Yingshui's white rice was also finished at this time, and this large bowl of white rice was a great temptation.
Ali and Yingshui looked at the white rice held by Xiaojing, and they really felt very fragrant. Each swallowed, but didn't move.
Today's white rice was originally Lin Zhanqing's money, and Ali Yingshui and Xiaojing only ate it because of Lin Zhanqing's staining.
Why are Ali and Yingshui embarrassed to eat Lin Zhanqing's white rice and make Lin Zhanqing hungry?
ιΏδΈ½ says:
"Brother Lin, even if you eat enough at noon, you still have to eat at night. No matter how much, always eat some. Otherwise, you won't be able to sleep well. β
ζZhanqing says:
"It's okay, I'm not hungry. It's time to eat at noon today. β
Yingshui smiled lightly and said:
"You're welcome, little brother. Eat quickly, you can't eat at night. β
Lin Zhanqing only said "not hungry".
Ali and Yingshui never came to fruition with the bowl in Xiaojing's hand.
Lin Zhanqing blinked, got up and went out, and said at the same time:
"It's a nice night tonight, I'm going to look at the stars. β
When Lin Zhanqing went out, Ali and Yingshui couldn't pretend anymore, so they hurriedly grabbed the rice, and the two divided it equally.
The eating appearance is not as restrained as when Lin Zhanqing was there, gobbling it up, and eating the rice in their respective bowls in a few bites.
Xiaojing, Ali, and Yingshui haven't had a full meal for months.
In the past, there were a few meals of white rice with stir-fried vegetables a month, and since the beginning of winter, I have been drinking gruel every day for most of the month.
The three of them were really hungry, so they swallowed tears into their stomachs, and regarded them as supplements.
Ali ate the white rice that was originally Lin Zhanqing, so she was naturally hostile to Lin Zhanqing again.
muttered to himself,
"This little brother Lin doesn't seem to be a bad person. β
Yingshui didn't have any hostility towards Lin Zhanqing, and muttered to herself,
"Brother Lin is definitely not a bad person. β
Xiao Jing also followed Ali and Yingshui and muttered,
"Uncle Lin gave me white rice to eat, and he was polite and handsome. It would be nice if I had such a big brother. β
Ali Yingshui's face was a little red at the same time, and at the same time she scolded:
"Xiaojing!
Early the next morning, Lin Zhanqing lifted the five-layer quilt covering his body.
Rubbing his eyes, the sun in the mountains has risen high.
Lin Zhanqing knew that he woke up late, and he also knew that last night was a rare good night.
Speaking of which, Lin Zhanqing hasn't had a good night's sleep for a long time.
Lin Zhanqing didn't know the truth about his father and mother before, so he couldn't sleep well.
After Lin Zhanqing learned the truth about his father, he couldn't sleep even more.
Pain, entanglement, and thinking kept playing out in Lin Zhanqing's mind.
Lin Zhanqing couldn't stop these thoughts, and he couldn't think of a way to reconcile.
Especially after knowing the truth about my father.
Lin Zhan cleared the way of immersing himself in pain to make himself feel better, and there was no way to make himself feel a little more at ease.
The truth about Lin Zhanqing's father, what a sad joke, and what a miserable life.
The big devil who slaughtered the martial arts,
The great hero who saved the Star Gate.
Forgetting life and death, and taking all sins upon oneself. Just so that his child, that is, Lin Zhanqing, can live without danger.
Lin Zhanqing's father and mother are big heroes, and Lin Zhanqing can't defend himself.
Lin Zhanqing's father and mother are the big devils, and Lin Zhanqing can't defend himself.
This is an incomparably huge whirlpool, which restrained Lin Zhanqing to death, and fell deeper and deeper.
Is Lin Zhanqing's father good or bad?
Lin Zhanqing didn't know, Lin Zhanqing only knew that his father and mother were dead.
For the sake of his own death, the death is extremely miserable. Not even the bones were found.
And I can't do anything but pain.
Lin Zhanqing didn't think about this, and looked at the five quilts on his body, four of which were brought by Ali before going to bed last night.
There were some patches on each quilt, but it was clean. Ali seems to have brought Lin Zhanqing the best quilts in the house.
Lin Zhanqing got up and went out and walked around the village, and everyone in the village greeted Lin Zhanqing warmly.
Obviously a stranger, but there is no hostility.
Lin Zhanqing likes this feeling very much.
But there are always some exceptions,
"Ali, that guy, a few years after the man died, he recruited a young brother to live at home. Adults and children do not shy away from what it looks like. β
"I'm afraid that's not right, what do people avoid? Ali may be very happy! This little brother is young and strong, and he can't stop at night. β
"That's not right. Ali doesn't care if she gets married and has children, Yingshui is a girl who is not married. Can Ali toss around at home with someone's family?
"It's a short sighting. Yingshui is not a child, how can he not know. The sisters serve a little brother together, and the fat and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders. β
"What you said is your greedy little brother. β
"Hmph! It's the same as if you weren't greedy. β
"Shhhhh β
"Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......"
For these rumors, Lin Zhanqing should not have heard them, and Ali and Yingshui should not have heard them.
This is normal, but what is not normal is that Xiao Jing has never heard these words.
Lin Zhanqing has some doubts, a five-year-old child should not be blind to slandering his mother.
But when I think about it, I understand.
Ali is a widow, and gossip is indispensable. After a long time, Xiaojing is used to listening.
Three days have passed, and Lin Zhanqing has lived very comfortably in Ali's house.
These three days were a rare good night's sleep.
The exhausted Lin Zhanqing finally had a chance to breathe, and the whole person felt a little more comfortable.
Ali and Yingshui are no longer hostile to Lin Zhanqing, and Xiaojing has a good impression of Lin Zhanqing, the big brother.
Within three days, Lin Zhanqing and Ali's family had become acquainted.
On the morning of the fourth day of Lin Zhanqing's stay, Ali hesitated to walk to Lin Zhanqing's room.
In the past three days, four copper plates have been spent.
Ali came to ask Lin Zhanqing for money, or let Lin Zhanqing go.
In fact, Ali didn't want to come, Ali wanted to ask Lin Zhanqing to stay all the time.
In three days, Ali unknowingly regarded Lin Zhanqing as a younger brother.
But Ali had to come, living in the mountains, money is life.
Sometimes a copper plate can't be connected, and Xiaojing may be taken away.
Ali has the slightest face, and there is no room for mercy.
Ali raised her hand a few times and took a big breath before knocking on the door of Lin Zhanqing's room.
I knocked lightly a few times, but no one answered.
Ali was a little strange, knocked again, and knocked on the door directly.
The door was unlocked, and the house was empty.
Ali muttered:
"He's gone?"
At this moment, a bamboo whistle sounded in the village.
Ali jerked into the depths of the mountain and shouted:
"It's them!"
Ali shouted again:
"Yingshui, take Xiaojing and hide behind the mountain quickly!"
As soon as Ali's words came out, Yingshui had already run to the back of the mountain with Xiaojing.
Seeing that Yingshui had already left with Xiaojing, Ali whispered,
"It's good that Brother Lin is gone at this time!"
Ali stayed in the village by herself, with no intention of running away.
And Yingshui and Xiaojing didn't say a word to Ali, so they left Ali with confidence.
Almost everyone in the village took refuge in the back mountains, where the roads were rugged, the vegetation was dense, and there were many caves.
Even if hundreds or thousands of people are hidden, it is difficult to be discovered.
Each family left some food in their house to feed the bandits.
But only Ali was left in the house.
A group of bandits, not many, but there are more than a dozen of them.
Riding a horse, he quickly swept around the villagers' houses, collected all the tributes, and went straight to Ali's house.
More than a dozen thieves, with lewd smiles on their faces, entered Ali's house together.
Then came a brutal voice,
"Sluts, do you want to think about the uncles? The uncles have to let you go to heaven today! The uncles are merciful, take care of you and take care of the girls, no thanks! Hahahaha......"
Then came a delicate scream, very piercing, as if it was about to burst its throat.
"Ahh......h
I don't know how long it took, but more than a dozen bandits finished venting. The bandits led by him took a bag of rice and a bag of millet from outside the door and threw it on the ground, each bag of rice was about ten catties.
He scolded and said:
"Sluts, give the uncles more fat in the future. Dry and old poplar bark, fucking disgusting who. Blind such a slutty bitch!hahahaha......"
And he said to the other bandits:
"Brothers, you have had a good harvest and have had a good time. Let's go home!"
"Big brother is mighty! I am fortunate to follow my eldest brother three lives!
