When He Ze looked at him, the latter just looked up, and the two of them had their eyes collided.
At this time, Lin Tiangui's hair was messy, his back was hunched, his sleeves were lined, and the exposed half of his arms looked like dead branches. It was a world of difference compared to his domineering look at Xiao Yuer's house a few months ago. In addition, the old man who has suffered many blows in the past few months, and he was afraid that he would have lost half his life if he didn't die.
There was no turmoil in He Ze's heart. He just glanced at him and looked away. He didn't even slow down his driving speed. The ox cart drove away all of a long time.
Lin Tiangui seemed to have suddenly reacted. He turned his head suddenly and looked at the ox cart that was gradually disappearing from his sight. His face was ferocious, and the resentment in his eyes seemed to turn into substance.
It took a while to return to normal.
I had previously said that the Lin family could not find a place to stay. I built a shed between Hejia Village and the nearby Lijia Village, and lived there temporarily.
Lin Tiangui walked for half a quarter of an hour. In front of him was such a thatched hut that was not sheltered from the wind or rain. Maybe it was too exciting to see He Ze just now, and the expression on his face was twisted for a moment again.
When he opened the door, his only two grandsons sat by the bed. They were the two children of his father-in-law. Unfortunately, they were all delayed. They have not married yet. Liu was half lying on the bed, moaning intermittently. He has been in poor health since the third brother went there. He has hired a doctor, and the doctor said he can't hold on for long.
Hearing the movement, Liu turned his head with some difficulty. The blind eye was left with the whites. It was particularly creepy under the faint candlelight, "Back, are you back? How much?"
"Five taels of silver." Lin Tiangui knew what he was asking.
"Okay! OK!" Liu seemed to be in a state of energy, raised his right hand and slapped the bed twice, "Dalang... hurry!"
Lin Shou, the grandson of Lin Er, realized something, and his voice trembled slightly, "Grandma, you really sold Emu?!"
Although Li Shanfeng was mean to others, she really hurt her two sons. Lin Fu was spoiled by him since he was a child and didn't feel anything when his family was just in trouble. After several times, Lin Tiangui tied it up and whipped it, he finally calmed down. No one could care about him these days, and Li Shanfeng tried every means to follow him and became the best person Lin Shou treated him the heart.
At this moment, Lin Shou learned that the best Emma to him was really sold, and the backbone in his heart suddenly went away.
Lin Tiangui did not answer, silence was the best answer. Li Shanfeng was old and didn't sign a contract for him.
"Grandma, where are you? Where did you hide Am? I want Am!" The eldest grandson understood his younger brother's words, burst into tears and snot, and threw himself on Lin Tiangui a few steps and pulled his arm.
The eldest grandson of the Lin family is named Lin Fu. He is a little stupid, but he was born with expectation. He has been used to it since childhood. If Lin's eldest grandson cried like this, Lin Tiangui would have been soft-hearted, but now he only feels irritable. He raises his hand and slaps Lin Fu's face.
He calmed down, as if he was frightened by the slap. Lin Shou hurriedly pulled him aside, but his eyes were kept staring at Lin Tiangui.
"Sold it, five taels of silver." Lin Tiangui looked at him and sat on the ground with a relaxing breath. There was a wooden board on the ground, which was where he slept. The thatched hut was small, and in order to save Dalang, he sold everything he could sell. Now the family is poor.
"Don't worry, it's a wealthy family, and they don't have to suffer. Don't blame Grandpa for being cruel. Grandpa is doing this to save your father."
Because of the funeral of the third brother and the illness of Liu, the Lin family spent most of their savings over the past ten years. With these five taels of silver and the money sold for the family's miscellaneous things, they could make up a 10 tael.
He went to the county government tomorrow to see it, and at least he rescued the boss first. This son is his lifeblood. I heard that there are many vicious people in the prison, so the boss must have suffered.
The more Lin Tiangui thought about it, the more worried he became, but his voice became stern, "From now on, you just think that there is no Emu, Li Shanfeng. Our Lin family's wife cannot be a cunt. When someone else asked, she said that she ran away with the wild man. Even if your father came back, he would say that, did you hear it clearly?"
Lin Fu's eyes were dull, and it was hard to say if he didn't understand it. Lin Er felt cold, but because Lin Tiangui had accumulated great power in this family for so many years, and the whip he had done a few days ago, he didn't dare to say a word.
"Okay, you guys go out first. I'll say something to your grandma."
Lin Shou pulled Lin Fu out of the door, and the room became quiet. Lin Tiangui's eyes were half-closed, his eyes were muddy, "It's not a solution to continue like this. I have been there too, but I don't see me at all. Last time, we didn't do the marriage with his cousin and nephew, but we didn't have a brother at home."
Li Shanfeng once came to Lin Yu to tell him a marriage. The man was the cousin of the Li Zheng and a scholar. However, after he had an official position, he lingered in a brothel and a brothel. He dyed flowers and willows last year, and it is said that he didn't have long to live.
Their family didn't want to break up, so they wanted to marry someone to come back. Their eyes were very high, and if they didn't say anything, their wealth would be clear. Lin Tiangui heard about this from Li Zheng, so he volunteered to take it down, thinking of sending Lin Yu over.
I never thought that Lin Yu had climbed into the He family. The He family boy was jealous. He not only decided to marry Lin Yu, but also asked the clan elders to testify and completely cut off Lin Yu's relationship with them. This matter naturally disappeared.
Without Lin Yu, where can he send it to a innocent brother? This matter has been broken, and the inner king doesn't like him anymore, and he doesn't even let him in these days.
"That bitch Zhang Su, biao �
"Stop scolding, it's useless."
Compared to Zhang Su and Lin Yu, what Lin Tiangui hated more was He Ze.
He learned from Lin Dalang that Wu Cui was stealing someone. The boy from the He family was exposed in the back. This incident killed his third brother and made his family homeless now. Lin Tiangui wanted to eat He Ze's meat and chew his bones raw, but what could he do if he scolded him again!
"Dalang..."
"I'll go to Dalang's place tomorrow." Lin Tiangui got up and poured a glass of water for Liu. He had been a companion for decades. Seeing Liu's appearance, he felt uncomfortable, "I'll ask Fushou and the other two to take care of you at home, so don't let them go out. Brother Fu is fine, I'm afraid that Brother Shou will run to find Li Shanfeng, which will make people laugh!"
"Okay, I remember."
The thatched hut became quiet, and Lin Tiangui called in, and lay on another board in the room with a thin quilt covered with a wet quilt.
When the wind poured in, Lin Shou couldn't help but shrank. His eyes were open, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
...
It has been two days since Luo Zhanming came to visit. The weather was good these two days, with sunshine and spring breeze. He Ze was copying leaflets for the rest of the time except teaching He An to practice calligraphy.
He An went to find Uncle Xu on that day and didn't meet anyone, so he went by himself in the evening. However, he asked Xu Qingsheng to remind him that there were not many people in the town to read, so even if he hired people to copy more copies, it would be a waste. He Ze thought about it, and in addition to asking Xu Qingsheng to help, he came by himself.
The room was a little bored. On this day, he moved the desk outside. Just as he was copying it, He An finished the last pot of flowers, threw the porcelain bowl into the wooden barrel, and ran over with a flowering pot, "Brother, brother, look, it's blooming!"
He An brought a pot of camellia. There were three flowers on this camellia, only one flower blooming, and the other two were still buds. The blooming flower was beautifully shaped, with light pink petals and overlapping, covered with slightly red spots and some purple-red stripes, which looked very gorgeous.
He An put the last stroke, stretched his waist, leaned over and sniffed, "The fragrance of flowers is a bit light, it smells quite nice." He raised his head, "This pot is a treasure among camellia tea, Yilanjiao. A scholar in the previous dynasty gave it a new name, Tongque Chunshen, because of its beautiful artistic conception. Well, it is about twenty taels of time placed on the flower market."
"Twenty taels?"
"Yes, twenty taels." He Ze touched the leaves of camellia, "Put it back quickly, adult camellia likes to bask in the sun, be careful of flowers."
"ah?!"
He An was so angry that he hurriedly sent the flowers back. This was twenty taels of silver!
Seeing him jogging over, He Ze burst out laughing. Wangfu, who was sleeping by the yard, was awakened by his laughter, walked over and rubbed his trouser legs, and lay down again. It has eaten a lot recently and grown fast. As soon as it lay down, it squeezed out a large piece of meat on its belly, which was very funny.
He Ze scratched its chin, causing Wangfu to lick it constantly.
He An ran back, "Brother, only one pot of so many flowers has bloomed. Can the rest be bloomed before the 12th of next month? It's only half a month."
"Don't worry, I can definitely open."
This batch of flowers has a total of forty-nine pots, 80% of which are treasures, such as soft fragrance red in the rose, black beauty, copper bird spring-deep in camellia, eighteen bachelors, Yao Huang, Wei Zi in the peonies, etc. In this small county where birds do not shit, the market price will be worth thousands of taels of silver.
The level of value can be seen.
It is difficult to bloom these flowers, and some of them are even wrong in flowering periods. If someone changes to someone else, he should laugh secretly. However, He Ze has the ability to use wood to make a living, so he naturally doesn't have to worry about these things.
As the two brothers were talking, He Youcai came in from the gate of the courtyard, with a look of worry on his face. In the morning, he asked the village elders to look for him, but he didn't know what he said, judging by the situation.
He An asked with some concern.
"Nothing big, isn't this another three years? The patriarch said that waiting for a while, the recruits in the yamen should come." He Youcai replied.
Although the world is now stable, the life of the imperial court is not easy. The nomadic peoples in the north are eyeing each other, and there are rebels in the east, and there are no major wars, and there are constant small fights. Therefore, the imperial court did not dare to relax and followed the conscription system of the previous dynasty. Once every three years, each household with two adult male or above must obtain one person at a time.
He Ze just passed his 20th birthday a few days ago, and there were two adult males in his family.
"Dad, don't you just say that you can stop going if you have two taels of silver?" Because He An stayed in the village all year round, he has seen a lot since he was a child, and he is even clearer than He Ze.
"That's right, I'm not worried about Xiaoze, it's just a villager... Alas, I don't know how many people will come back here." He Youcai sighed and did not speak anymore, looking for Li's family in the kitchen.
He just remembered the resentment of military recruitment in previous years and sighed, "This incident did not cause any waves in the He family, and time passed quickly."
On the eighth day of the second month, He Ze just entered the house and He Youcai told him good news - the new yard has been completed!
Chapter completed!
