When Ye Dong woke up, he was lying on his bed, in pain all over his body, unable to move.

Lu Xiaowan sat next to the bed, saw him wake up, and suddenly hugged him, Ye Dong couldn't help but let out a sound*. Lu Xiaowan hurriedly let go of her hands, looked at Ye Dong, wiped her tears, and said apologetically, "Dong'er, it's all my mother's fault, my mother hurt you, right?"

Ye Dong shook his head with difficulty and said, "It's okay. ”

Lu Xiaowan said: "Thanks to Miss Mo for informing us, otherwise we would ......" She couldn't cry anymore as she spoke, obviously feeling afraid.

"Miss Mo?" Ye Dong thought about it carefully, and seemed to have seen a girl before he fell unconscious, but he didn't see her appearance clearly, he just remembered her voice.

"yes, if she hadn't stopped those bastards in time, I don't know what they would have done to you. Lu Xiaowan nodded, "By the way, Dong'er, your grandfather has been to Ye Hao's house recently, Ye Hao said that you did it first and loosened his teeth, is it true?"

Ye Hao is the damn fat man.

"My teeth are loose. Ye Dong smiled and nodded, "It's my hand that moved first." ”

"Why?"

"Because he owes a beating. ”

Ye Xiaowan stopped talking, of course he knew Ye Hao's temperament, and bullying the weak was a habitual and common thing. Ye Dong was beaten before, and one of his followers did it, to put it bluntly, these people are just crooked at the top and crooked at the bottom, usually forming gangs and cloaking in cahoots, and doing a lot of unseemly and despicable things.

"You have a good rest, and during this time, you should take care of your body before going to the school. Lu Xiaowan touched Ye Dong's head, and then walked out.

Ye Dong agreed, thinking about it for a while, but he thought of the little girl surnamed Mo, and the crisp scolding,

The emerald green clothes.

What's her name?

Perhaps for the little girl, this matter was just a gesture of effort, and she did not take it to heart, and soon forgot about it afterwards.

After a while, Ye Dong was already able to get out of bed and walk around.

As his body recovered, his mood gradually improved.

At the moment, sitting in the yard, humming a little song, I was engrossed and attentive in scraping the potato skins, looking forward to my grandmother's fried shredded potatoes with green peppers that he liked to eat.

Suddenly, there was a commotion not far away, and he looked up and saw two strangers walking into the courtyard of the Lu family.

A man and a woman, the man was very handsome, holding a little girl in one hand and a baby in his arms, and the woman was handing out some candy and other food to his cousins and cousins.

He was a little envious and yearning, but he didn't walk over, just watched for a while, and then continued with the work at hand.

From some of their sporadic conversations, Ye Dong guessed the identities of these two people. The man should be his brother-in-law, his grandfather's youngest son, and his mother's younger brother, and the woman should naturally be his aunt.

They returned from the far south.

On this day, the Lu family was very lively and full of joy.

It's just that for some reason, Ye Dong's heart is not full of joy and happiness like theirs, although he has a smile on his face, he has an inexplicable sense of loss and depression in his heart.

He could almost feel that his uncle was happier when he called someone, but his aunt's attitude seemed to be a little subtle, which was different from that of other cousins.

Ye Dong wasn't sure, maybe it was just his own delusion.

However, what happened next let Ye Dong know that the feeling before was not because he was too sensitive.

A large family, but the house is so big, and the brother-in-law has his own wife and daughter, and the need for this is urgent. As a result, every time Ye Dong sleeps and gets up, he inevitably has to pass through his uncle's territory. The uncle is silent about this, and the aunt will make some complaints, often accusing Sang and scolding Huai. Every time Ye Dong passed by and heard these harsh words, he would feel frightened, ashamed and angry.

After a year like this, the dissatisfaction of the little aunt finally broke out.

It was one night, and everyone was having dinner. The little aunt and uncle cook and eat by themselves, and they are separated from Lu Qi and the others by a door. That day, one of Ye Dong's cousins wanted to drink water, and came out to drink it once, not long after entering, she came out to drink again, Lu Xiaowan found a scoop, scooped water and fed her to drink, and then the little aunt Jin Xiang'er said angrily in the back room: "Drink and drink, beware of you to death!"

Lu Xiaowan said: "If the child wants to drink water, won't you give her a drink?"

"What does it matter to you that my child wants to drink water, and you want to be nosy?"

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

Lu Xiaowan wanted to say something more, and Lu Qi said, "Shut up for me." As he spoke, he threw the bowl past her and slammed it against the wall, "Bang!" With a bang, it smashed into pieces, and the fragments of rice grains and bowls bounced out and fell to the ground.

Then there was a dead silence, Ye Dong was stupid, his heart was beating wildly, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

That night, Ye Dong and Ye Xiaowan stayed at their aunt's house.

The eldest uncle's mother, Tian, is a strong woman, Ye Dong's uncle died in an accident very early, and it is not easy for her to pull a son and two daughters alone; Usually be kind to others and win popularity.

Tian's son, Ye Dong's cousin Lu Xiang, is the child king of the village, and he is on a par with Ye Hao.

Ye Dong had some admiration and flattery for this cousin, and often followed his ass around after that.

Once, Ye Dong and Lu Xiang went to play at another house, Ye Dong saw a very good thing, and couldn't resist the temptation, so he quietly hid it on his body, and only took it out to Lu Xiang when he went back, which was quite a treasure to please.

I don't want Lu Xiang to be very skinny, but he is also an upright man who is easy to fight and fight, so he refused at the moment. After the incident in the east window was exposed, Ye Dong was directly reported.

All of a sudden, there were many discussions about what Qianfu pointed out, and Ye Dong had the heart to refute it, but in the face of the facts, the evidence was ironclad, and he could only be ashamed and indignant, and regret not being at the beginning.

Of course, there is a price to pay for doing something wrong, the strange eyes and cynicism of outsiders, the family law of grandfather Lu Qi, and the stick.

"Stealing needles when you are young, stealing gold when you grow up. ”

"If you don't fight, you can't be talented, and good people come out under the stick. ”

Grandfather Lu Qi said so.

Since then, Ye Dong has been more silent and introverted, cautious and cautious, and does not dare to have excessive words and behaviors.

However, the accident happened again, that day Ye Dong went out to play with his cousin Lu Xiang, and when he came back, he heard his mother Lu Xiaowan arguing with his uncle Tian.

He was very frightened and surprised, one was an aunt who treated people very well, and the other was his dear mother, what was the reason for them to turn their faces ruthlessly and speak ill of each other?

At that time, he didn't understand the world, and his interests were related to the most difficult eight words in the world, and there was nothing more important than this for relatives and friends to make good friends and bad friends.

The Lu family can't stay any longer.

Where should you go this time?

Sister-in-law Ye Qingjian's house.

left the Lu family, who had lived for a long time, and came to Qiongyu City, where Ye Qingjian was located.

Growing so big, it was the first time Ye Dong had seen such a prosperous and open place, although there were many people in Luochan Village, after all, it was only a small place.

So far, Qiongyu City has gone through many vicissitudes of life, showing a great situation: the houses are next to each other, row upon row, the pattern is vertical and horizontal; the streets are like dragons, and the city people gather; the various shops are made of silk and satin, and the jewels are magnificent, and Miss Gongzi is based on them, and the clothes and ornaments are extremely gorgeous, and she is like a god.

Ye Dong, a sparsely dressed hillbilly, was a little unable to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, and looked dull and dull.

When they came to the Chen Mansion in Qiongyu City, their uncle Chen Lin and their cousin Chen Jian were all cold models.

Although Chen Jian is one year old as Ye Dong, he is much taller than him. Chen Lin is a little short and fat, showing a state of wealth and nobility, and is an outsider. Ye Qingjian is tall, with a melon seed face, and he is also extraordinary.

Bringing Ye Dong to Ye Qingjian's house, Lu Xiaowan continued to do things.

Speaking of Ye Qingjian, she was quite at odds with Lu Xiaowan before she got married, and she was very dissatisfied with Lu Xiaowan. This time, he was willing to take in Ye Dong, completely because of their blood relationship, and also to get a good reputation for being affectionate, righteous, and compassionate.

Their home is neat and magnificent, and all kinds of precious and precious things are dazzling and dizzying.

The difference in environment and life makes Ye Dong even more like walking on thin ice, like facing the abyss, cautious, for fear of making a mistake, most of the time he is silent, only when Ye Qingjian asks him, he will lower his eyebrows and answer a few words carefully.

Since the last time he failed to please Lu Xiang, Ye Dong has no mind in this regard.

Ye Dong's appearance, in Ye Qingjian's eyes, naturally disliked, so he would compare his son Chen Jian with him, and ask him to take him as an example.

It is said that Chen Jian is cheerful, smart and witty, and has a very personality.

"Can you have a little personality?"

Ye Qingjian really couldn't stand Ye Dong's submissive appearance, and said so.

Ye Dong felt very confused, what is going on with this so-called personality, and what should be done to be considered individual. The only thing he can do is to talk less, work diligently, even if he is said a few words, there will be no big mistakes, and it is always right to sail the ship carefully.

Even in Ye Qingjian's eyes, Ye Dong is not as good as Chen Jian.

Even when eating, Ye Qingjian would say, what are you doing with the bowl so high.

Ye Dong's arrival at least served a role, to cover for Chen Jian. Every time Chen Jian sneaks out into the wilderness, he will take Ye Dong with him, and he will bring his cousin to get acquainted with Qiongyucheng, and then explain to Ye Dong in private, and let Ye Dong say what he taught, because in Ye Qingjian's eyes, Ye Dong is an honest person, so this trick is really useful.

Chen Jian rode a horse, and Ye Dong followed him, running briskly, like a little minion.

Lu Xiaowan sent Ye Dong's living expenses with a letter.

After Ye Qingjian read the letter, he took Ye Dong to study in a academy on the outskirts of Qiongyu City.

This academy is located in Jiashan Village, which is close to Qiongyu City, so it is called Jiashan Academy.

Ye Qingjian has a lot of books at home, and Ye Dong reads a lot of them when he is free, which has benefited him a lot and increased his knowledge.
