Chapter 12 Reporting
When the first rays of sunlight from Shiren Peak shone into the sour jujube forest, Zhang Xiaohua also opened her eyes at the same time, and something flashed in her dark eyes, which was fleeting.
Zhang Xiaohua did not get up immediately as usual, but lay on the kang and closed her eyes again. The swollen cheeks that were beaten by others are no longer as hot and painful as last night, and if the corners of the cracked mouth are not deliberately touched, there is almost no pain, and the injuries on the body are slowly getting better, but what about the wounds in the heart?
Zhang Xiaohua's mind was wandering back to what had happened yesterday afternoon. Daddy's decision to hold the eldest brother and not let the eldest brother come forward is not wrong, what Daddy said is also very right, things that are beyond his ability cannot be managed, and the hot-blooded impulse may be the disaster of death. The eldest brother stepped forward to stop it, and there was nothing wrong with it, although Miss Liu and we had a relationship, but after all, they helped each other, even if they were strange girls, seeing that they were being dragged away by ugly people, if they didn't make a move at that time, this matter might become a thorn in their hearts, and they would never want to pull it out for the rest of their lives.
Thinking about the onlookers around, so many people, those numb, joyful, sympathetic faces, do they not want to step forward to stop it?
Think about two Humpty Dumpty people, a group of vicious dog-like family members, arrogant and domineering doing hurtful things in front of so many people.
If you think about the tragic situation of my father and my two brothers being trampled under their feet, and their fists and feet combined, maybe those evil servants did not think of taking their lives, but only took pleasure in it, and used their flesh as a tool for amusement, and let their blood ignite their excitement, but what if those evil servants wanted their lives?
Thinking about it again, Wen Wenhai and his junior sister fell from the sky, and it was as easy as a palm to knock down that group of evil servants, and the two of them didn't even tell that Zhao Wansheng their names, just a few martial arts and a brand, so that the two arrogant bullies were tied up and obediently made amends.
A thought flashed through his mind, martial arts!
I need liliang, I need martial arts.
This time it was because they met Wen Wenhai's brothers and sisters, and they were fighting to save each other, if they didn't take action, then their relatives would be beaten violently, and their lives would be difficult to protect. Relying on no one is reliable, you have to rely on yourself, only when you have liliang, can you have the ability to protect yourself, protect your relatives, and have the spare strength to help others.
Zhang Xiaohua's mind was opened up all of a sudden, and his mind that had been depressed since yesterday was broadened in an instant, just like reclaiming wasteland, with a goal, everything is easy to do, what he lacks is not perseverance, not the strength to be afraid of hardship, but the direction, and it is possible to try his best to complete it if there is a direction.
Zhang Xiaohua, who had thought of the direction of struggle, didn't want to stay in bed anymore, he got up from the kang neatly and walked out of his grandmother's hut in the sun.
Zhang Xiaohua, who was excited, didn't know how martial arts could be practiced so easily. Inheritance, talent, perseverance, opportunities, etc., none of them can be achieved without them, but which young man does not have his own dreams? Whether it is a successful person or an unsuccessful person, how can the impulses of youth be different? It's just that everyone's path is different, and only when they walk can they know what is right or wrong.
The same goes for our Zhang Xiaohua!
Zhang Xiaohua walked out of the hut, saw her grandmother sitting at the door, approached and said, "Grandma, it's still early, the wind outside is cool, let's go into the house, wait for almost noon, you can come out to bask in the sun again." ”
Grandma listened to her grandson's voice and said lovingly: "Xiaohua, grandma wants to breathe more outside, grandma is a day at a time, and she doesn't want to stay in the hut every day." But you, do you still have pain? You should sleep in bed for a while. ”
Zhang Xiaohua said happily: "Grandma, I'm fine for a long time, your face won't be swollen when you touch me." ”
Zhang Xiaohua took her grandmother's rough hand and put it on her face, and her grandmother touched it carefully, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, okay." After speaking, he touched his moist eyes with his sleeve, and it seemed that he still felt very sorry for his youngest grandson.
In the yard, Guo Sufei was busy on the stove with a simple shed outside the house, Liu Qian and Liu Yueyue were also helping on the side, the two of them looked very happy, but Liu Qian seemed to be a little shy, yes, Zhang Xiaohua wiped her eyes and looked carefully, sure enough, Liu Qian's face was still flushed. Strange, what's going on?
Zhang Xiaohua didn't know that Liu Qian and Liu Yueyue woke up before dawn, because they were not very used to living in their own house, so they couldn't sleep anymore, and the two were afraid of disturbing Guo Sufei's sleep, so they talked together in a whisper, talking about yesterday's events, and rejoicing that they had escaped the disaster. Liu Qian's heart was especially grateful to Zhang Xiaolong, if he hadn't rushed up in time to stop it, it would have been miserable to be dragged into the alley by those two bullies, not to mention that Zhang Xiaolong was defenseless, using his body to protect the two weak women, although he was seriously injured, he still had a resolute look on his face, which was deeply engraved on her heart.
Not long after, Guo Sufei also woke up, she listened to the two girls talking, and did not disturb, seeing that the sky was about to dawn, she coughed a few times, sat up, and the two girls also quickly got up. Last night, Guo Sufei was anxious about her family's injuries, and the light was not good, she didn't take a closer look at the two girls, at this time, the sky was bright, and the injuries of her family members were stable, so she had the opportunity to look at the two people. The two girls are very beautiful and have good figures, although they are different in height, but Meilan Zhuju has their own merits, but yes, if there is no bit of posture, how can they be teased on the street. Then, Zhang Xiaolong's mother began to inquire about the situation of the two girls. Only then did I know that there were only three people in Liu Qian's family, father and brother, my mother died of illness a few years ago, Liu Qian's father was a teacher and my brother was also a weak scholar, and the family did not have much land, only relying on teaching to make a living, and it was also highly respected in the village. Liu Yueyue is Liu Qian's cousin, her father is a butcher, and Liu Qian's father is a brother, living in the same village, Liu Yueyue's parents are there, and she is the only daughter in the family. Yesterday, Liu Qian's family had a guest visiting, and her father and brother accompanied the guests, while Liu Yueyue's father was busy with his own business, and no one accompanied the two sisters to the market, so yesterday's situation appeared. The three women said a lot of considerate words, and Guo Sufei even asked the two girls if they had a marriage contract, and both of them replied no. Liu Yueyue didn't think anything, but Liu Qian's face was flushed. Guo Sufei looked at Liu Qian's shy expression, and she couldn't help but be happy.
At dawn, Guo Sufei got up to work for breakfast, and the two little women also came to help, and after being busy for a while, Liu Qian's blush still did not fade clean, and Zhang Xiaohua saw a clue.
Zhang Xiaohua walked to the stove and said, "Two sisters are early." ”
It was a very ordinary greeting, but Liu Qian heard the sensitive "sister", and felt that her thoughts were known by this little brother, and she blushed and raised her eyebrows, Liu Yueyue happily responded: "Morning, little brother." ”
Zhang Xiaohua asked about her father and brother, Guo Sufei said that she had already gone to see it, there was no change, the injuries outside were light, and she hadn't recovered yet, so it was estimated that she would get up in a while.
As he was talking, Zhang Cai came out of the house, still holding a wooden stick as a crutch in his hand, limping, as if his right leg was not very comfortable. Guo Sufei and Zhang Xiaohua greeted her, and Zhang Xiaohua took a chair for her father and put it in the yard for Zhang Cai to sit on. I stretched my waist, and my back hurt so much that I bared my teeth.
Liu Qian and Liu Yueyue stepped forward to salute, but Zhang Cailian said no. Then he said: "The two girls didn't come back last night, the family must be worried, several of our men are injured, Xiaohua can't escort you back alone, I think, let Xiaohua and the people in the village bring a letter to your home, let them pick it up, do you think it's okay?"
Liu Qian and Liu Yueyue looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Subsequently, Zhang Cai and Zhang Xiaohua went to the village to find an adult man, and the two went to Baligou together to bring letters to Liu Qian and Liu Yueyue's family.
Baligou is in the southwest of Guozhuang, not close, and when Zhang Xiaohua and them arrived at Baligou, it was noon. Baligou is a village built in the middle of two mountains, and the scale is very large from the outside, with four or five of Guozhuang's. There are also a lot of people in the village, it is more lively, Zhang Xiaohua walked to the entrance of the village, someone had already seen it, and asked him who he was looking for, Zhang Xiaohua said that he was looking for Mr. Liu, who was teaching, and the person looked vigilant, but looking at Zhang Xiaohua's dress that was worse than himself and the loyal farmer who followed behind, he still asked: "Where did you come from? What is the matter with Mr. Liu?"
Zhang Xiaohua said: "We are from Guo Zhuang, and we brought Mr. Liu the news of Sister Liu Qian and Sister Liu Yueyue. ”
When the man heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Well, then, come with me." ”
After speaking, they took Zhang Xiaohua and trotted all the way to the front of a neat courtyard. Before he reached the door, he heard him shouting: "Mr. Liu, Butcher Liu, the news of your girl is here." ”
I heard a loud voice in the yard: "Ah, the robbers have sent a letter, I'll see which rabbit cub did the good deeds?" The man who came with Zhang Xiaohua and the person who led the way were about to dissuade him, and someone came out of the courtyard and said: "Second brother, you can't help but be reckless, look at this little guy, this demeanor, this shirt, does he look like a robber? Even if it is a robber, you have to let people talk." ”
The strong man smiled, let go of his hand, and said, "Big brother, aren't I anxious about my daughter's safety?
Zhang Xiaohua took a few deep breaths, and then slowly replied with a face, looking at the two people, knowing that the unhurried person in the back was Liu Qian's father, Mr. Liu, it should be Liu Yueyue's father, Liu Butcher, who was pulling himself just now.
