Qin Gong

Chapter 2

It was evening when we returned to the village.

In the past, he probably wouldn't come back so fast.

After all, at night, not necessarily, there is no work to do.

As long as you wait by the pipeline, there will always be one or two night jobs.

But today, because I had an appointment with a little girl surnamed Tian, ​​I came back a little earlier, and I didn't go back later.

"Ok?"

Just after returning home and entering the house, Shui Yan saw dinner placed in front of the wooden seat.

Said it was dinner.

But it's just some wild vegetable paste mixed with some cooked millet.

Shui Yan has gotten used to it.

Qi State has the best meat, but those don't belong to him.

Shui Yan understood this truth from birth.

Fortunately.

Only when the grandmother came over occasionally, she felt sorry for his grandson, and would secretly bring him some delicious food every time.

"came back?"

At this moment, as if he had just heard the sound, Mrs. Yan came out of the room.

Just as Mr. Yan finished speaking, he smelled a foul smell.

Looking at Shui Yan, Xiong's young but slightly wrinkled cheeks showed a touch of distress.

After all, it is her own flesh and blood.

Although the eldest son Shui Shou is a bit dull and honest, he is no different from ordinary people. Now he is enlisted in the army and will have a livelihood in the future.

Only the youngest son, Shuiyan, was bullied for being thin since he was a child, but he never cried or made trouble, and even worried that she would be sad. He was often bullied outside, and when he returned home, he would say that he had fallen down.

Have you ever seen a five or six-year-old child with footprints on his face?
I don't know how many times, knowing that Shui Yan was being bullied, she didn't cry, but at the moment when she saw Shui Yan told her that she fell down.My heart felt uncomfortable as if I was being grabbed, and I couldn't control my tears anymore.

Shiu often sighs, how many such sensible children are there?
"mother!"

Shui Yan's mouth was full of dinner, and she nodded as she watched her mother, with a smile on her face.

"Where's Dad?"

Shui Yan asked.

Normally, at this time, father should be at home, why only see mother right now.

"Your father is going to Linzi City today to buy some clothes for the family."

Mrs. Xie was wrapped in common clothes, and didn't dislike the stench of Shui Yan's body in the slightest.

Looking at Shui Yan, who had not eaten anything except breakfast in the morning and worked during the day, a smile appeared on the face of Mrs. Xiong.

"Your elder brother received his annual salary today, and asked someone to bring it back, and specifically asked him to buy some clothes for you."

Xiong said.There was a smile in the eyes looking at Shui Yan.

Although Shui Shou is dull, he cares about Shui Yan, his younger brother.

The relationship between the two brothers.

Since childhood, she has been very at ease, not like Shuiyan's father and Shuiyan's uncle.

"Mother, brother doesn't have a wife yet!"

Shui Yan listened to his mother's words, his heart warmed, and he couldn't help but say something.

The eldest brother Shui Shou is three years older than him, and he is already seventeen now. If he were placed in a powerful family, he would probably have three or four daughters-in-law.

After finally enlisting in the army, I have a little salary.

All of it was used to make up for the family, and the only thing left was to buy clothes for him.

When will that brother be able to find a wife.

In Qi State, few people are willing to marry their daughter to a man who has nothing.

"You child! Your father and I have saved the marriage between your brother and you!"

The smiling eyes of Xiongshi were full of blame.

It seems to be saying that Shui Yan is worrying about nothing, and it also seems to be saying that Shui Yan pretends to understand when he doesn't understand.

After all, in the eyes of the Yan family, Shui Yan was only fourteen years old.

At this age where I am not in a hurry to worry about my daughter-in-law, but I start to urge my elder brother to ask for a daughter-in-law.

Don't even think about it, when his father married her, he was already twenty-five.

"Mother, is there a girl from that family within a radius of ten miles?"

Shui Yan couldn't help muttering while eating.

It's just that before he finished speaking, he saw his mother's straight eyes, Shui Yan quickly stopped talking, and put on a flattering smile.

But at this time, Shui Yan didn't know.

At this time, the Yan family was more worried about him than his elder brother.

After all, Shui Shou has already enlisted in the army, and now that he has a yearly salary, it will not be difficult to find a wife in the future.

But Shui Yan was different. His physique was already a little thin in the eyes of his peers, so it was obvious that he had no hope of enlisting in the army.

And now this job has made Shui Yan's body smell of corpses all year round.

Shui Shou is poor, and there is still a future.

But there is that woman who is willing to follow Shuiyan and smell the stench of corpses all day long!
Seeing Shui Yan in front of him who was not worried about him at all, Xiong couldn't help blaming his mother in his heart.

"Mother! Back then, you really shouldn't have said that Yan'er would be named as a general in the future."

With a sigh in his heart, Yan smiled wryly.

Shuiyan's grandmother's words are so strong, not to mention the water village, even the villagers in other places are secretly laughing at Shuiyan's grandmother.

But rather.

It seems that the fool in front of him believed it!
Inside the cabin.

Not long after Shui Yan finished eating.

Yan's father also returned home in a hurry, and the cloth bag behind him obviously contained a lot of things.

"father!"

Seeing this, Shui Yan, who was chatting and laughing with his mother, hurried forward to help.

And Yan's father obviously also smelled a strong corpse odor coming from Shui Yan's body.

"Did you encounter a rotting corpse again today?"

Yan father asked.

Although the youngest son often works with corpses, the smell of corpses is not always so suffocating. Only when encountering rotting corpses will he be smothered with this corpse smell that will dissipate after several days.

"Ok!"

Shui Yan nodded.

Afterwards, the keen Shui Yan heard his father's inadvertent sigh again.

But Shui Yan didn't say it.

At first he couldn't help but vomit when he smelled the rotting corpse, but now, he got used to it.

As the father and son put down their things and opened the sack, apart from what was needed at home, a bundle of rough rolled cloth came into view.

Although the fabric is very rough, its price is still not a small burden for ordinary people.

After all, if you go out to spend at home, ordinary people don't have much money left to rake around.

"Why so many things?"

After Mrs. Yan took the fabric handed over by Yanfu, she asked suspiciously.

Look at things on the ground.

Obviously exceeded expectations, many of which should not be bought at home.

"Tomorrow is Daddy's birthday, and our family needs to celebrate his birthday!"

When Yan's father said this, he looked at his wife Qian's eyes a little dodged, a little guilty.

After all, he knew how much resentment his wife had towards her father and two elder brothers.

Inside the cabin.

Following Yan's father's words, it was quiet.

Neither Shui Yan nor Yan Shi said a word at the moment.

Both mother and son could hear the helplessness in Yan's father's words.

Shui Yan looked at his mother, with some worry in his eyes.

"it is good!"

Under Shui Yan's gaze, Xie said something lightly, then turned and walked back to the room.

In an instant.

Only Yan's father and Shui Yan looked at each other in the room.

Both father and son knew in their hearts that since five years ago, before the separation of the family, the uncle took advantage of the mother's absence and stole the relics from the grandfather to the mother to exchange for money.

After the mother found out, she didn't expect that the grandfather was partial to the uncle, and he opened his eyes and told nonsense when he clearly smelled the uncle's wine.

In turn, she pointed at her ignorance.

The uncle is a student of Jixia, and the drinking with the students is the talk of celebrities, so how can you blame the uncle for spending time and drinking.

Think back on that incident.

Today's Shui Yan still remembers the scene where grandfather, grandmother and uncle's family all blamed mother.

That is to say, from then on, the father who has been working hard has decided to separate the family.

And mother.

I'm afraid that in this life, I will never forgive my grandfather's family.
