Chapter 029 The Great War Escalates At this time, Ling Tianyang stopped crying. She could see clearly that Ling Guangcan is just a recalcitrant, stubborn old thing. Si followed behind into the yard, choked up and said to everyone: "Uncles and aunts, all of you, look at the hand of my second son, who was bitten like this by Ling Tianhong. If there is something wrong with him, what should our family do? That's it. My grandfather also said that we were wrong, we have to kowtow to apologize to Ling Tianhong, we are sorry for him!"

"You nonsense, when did the old man tell you to kowtow and admit your mistakes, it's just to make you apologize!" Mrs. Deng was so angry, how could this girl of Tianyang be talking nonsense? It's amazing, to talk nonsense and discredit the old man.Mrs. Deng accidentally blurted out Ling Guangcan's words just now, but judging from the expressions of the people outside, it seemed that she had gotten used to Mrs. Deng's style.

Ling Guangcan was speechless at this time, and could only stare at Ling Tianyang angrily.

Ling Tianyang ignored them, pulled Xiao Si from behind, and said: "My Xiao Si is only three years old, he can't lie at all, tell your uncles, Ling Tianhong, why on earth did you fight with Ling Tianhong?" To teach Ling Tianhong a lesson, I also want to beat Ling Guangcan and the others, don't blindly favor the third uncle's family and make the second, third and fourth suffer.

"Brother Tianhong and the others threw a lot of stones into my house. The third brother told them that they beat my third brother. Brother Tianhong rode on the three of them and beat me. The second brother came to help!"

Xiaosi is a little thing, go back and make it up to him, Ling Tianyang is very happy, Xiaosi is really smart!

Now everyone stared at Ling Tianhong, and even Hu Jiayong's elder brother Hu Jiahua took his son Shunli's hand and told him seriously that he was not allowed to play with Ling Tianhong in the future, and the others were also warning his son to stay away from Ling Tianhong.

The smug look in Ling Tianyang's eyes made Yan Tianxun who just passed by outside the yard smile. She didn't expect the little girl to be a little pepper, she really didn't suffer at all, even if her elders were wrong, she dared to say it directly .

After getting the answer he was satisfied with, Ling Tianyang took the second child's hand sadly on purpose, saying that he would go back to find a doctor for him, and told Ling Guangcan that if the second child's hand could no longer move, Ling Tianhong must pay for one when her father comes back. hand.Ling Guangcan was so scared that he didn't dare to speak, because he knew that Ling Wensheng would definitely dare to do this.

Mrs. Wang came back in the afternoon, holding a cage of chickens, about twenty of them. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her daughter was drying gallnuts, and the second and third children were picking something in the dustpan.

"Second, what are you picking up?" Mrs. Wang walked into the yard and started to ask.

The second child didn't answer, and the third child saw that the second brother didn't speak, and he didn't speak either. He happily looked at the cage in Wang's hand, took it over and beckoned the fourth child, and the two chattered non-stop around the bamboo cage.

"Mother, how many chickens are there?" The second child also moved to the bamboo cage and asked.

"Twenty! Yangyang, come and put the chickens in the chicken shed, you three little ones, go get some food for the chickens!"

"Okay! Second child, take your third child and fourth child to dig some crickets, or catch some grasshoppers." Ling Tianyang also knew that they were very excited, so he asked them to go find something to eat.

Seeing the young ones go out, Wang looked at Ling Tianyang suspiciously. Although the second child didn't answer him just now, she must have something to hide from her. Don't you know about the son you gave birth to?

Ling Tianyang met Wang's eyes very calmly, "Mother, they fought with Ling Tianhong today! You also saw that Ling Tianhong brought some children in and threw stones and mud in, and almost threw them into the dustpan. I went out and said a few words to Ling Tianhong, and then a fight broke out, Ling Tianhong and his gang of children beat the third child, and the fourth child went to help, and then the second child came back and started fighting with them too!"

Ling Tianyang knew that Wang must be very angry. She was the same as Ling Wensheng, except that she was impulsive and easy to get along with, but as long as it was a child's problem, she would definitely not talk about it.Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Wang stood up with a groan, and hurried to the old house, Ling Tianyang quickly grabbed her, "Mother, I have already been to Grandpa's side, I believe Ling Tianhong It's not easy, why do you have to go!"

Wang looked at Ling Tianyang in disbelief. Although her daughter's temperament is better now, it has been like this for more than ten years. Can it be changed?

Seeing Wang's disbelief, Ling Tianyang had no choice but to explain to her, and finally said: "Mother, if you don't believe it, you can ask Aunt Fei, she probably knows now!"

That's why Mrs. Wang didn't go for the time being, but, "Hmph, you actually started bullying the baby while our lord was not at home. When Xiong Rong came back later, I still have to talk to her, not a beating." It will be fine. And Yangyang, do you know who beat my third child and fourth child together with Ling Tianhong?" Xiong Rong is the name of Ling Tianyang's third aunt.

Well, Ling Tianyang admits that the current Wang family is full of fighting spirit, and she will destroy any possibility of blocking her. Ling Tianyang said he didn't know, and Wang asked the second and third children if they were injured. When they learned that the second child was bitten by Ling Tianhong After taking a sip, he pointed to the sky and cursed: "That short-lived Ling Tianhong who suffered a thousand knives is so cruel, her grandfather doesn't care, isn't the second child his grandson?"

"Mom, well, when our family is rich, the second child and the others can grow strong, and let him beat anyone who bullies him again!"

In the evening, Mrs. Wang really passed by. The third aunt refused to admit that her family Ling Tianhong had bitten someone, and she turned around and said that the second child bit her family Ling Tianhong. The third uncle was also at home at night, but he didn't say anything. They quarreled with Xiong Shi and almost got into a fight in the end, but Ling Tianyang brought them over to persuade Wang Shi.

"Third Aunt, I don't want to explain to you either. You said that my second child bit your Ling Tianhong, so let's show your Ling Tianhong's ass. As long as his skin is broken, we will count him as injured. Two, such a big wound will not be pursued!"

Mrs. Wang didn't know that the wound on the old second-hand man was very big. When he rolled up his sleeves, he realized that a piece of gray cloth was covered with blood. Mrs. Wang was so angry that she wanted to grab Mrs. Xiong's hair and beat him. Ling Wenfu saw his wife being beaten, and a big man actually started fighting with Wang.When Wang Shi was in her natal family, she learned some boxing from her father Wang Dashan, and she didn't lose the wind. However, Ling Wenfu is a man after all. Ling Tianyang was afraid that Wang Shi would have something, so he quickly shouted: "Third Uncle killed someone, Third Uncle Murder!" The three younger ones burst into tears, and for a moment, the entire east of the village was bustling with excitement, and there were a lot of people watching.

Seeing people coming, Ling Wenfu quickly let go of Mrs. Wang, but Mrs. Wang's hair was loose, and she looked bullied. People accused Ling Wenfu one after another. Uncle dared to fight with his sister-in-law. If you say it, Ling Wenfu will definitely live forever. I can't hold my head up as a human being either.Xiong shi sank down on the ground and howled, Ling Tianyang hurriedly helped Wang shi, crying all the way back.

In the evening of the next day, Ling Wensheng drove an ox cart to his small yard to unload the goods. He happily planned to buy a cow next year, because Ling Tianyang told her that no one else knew the wine they brewed at home.

When returning the ox cart, Ling Wenhua's wife, Mrs. Chen, told Ling Wensheng that Ling Wensheng was so angry that he didn't return home, so he went straight to Ling Wenfu's house and had a fight with Ling Wenfu.Ling Wenfu has been doing business all year round, so how can his body be compared to that of Ling Wensheng who has been doing farm work all year round? His nose was bruised and his face was swollen. More powerful than the other, Xiong was so frightened that she took Ling Tianhong and Ling Tianchen back to her mother's house that night.Even if this matter is over, Ling Wenfu's reputation is getting worse and worse. Ling Tianhong has no one to play with him in the village, and he is very wronged.

That night, Ling Wensheng sat at the table in a comfortable state of mind and body, and began to settle the accounts. He went to town yesterday and brought back 650 clay pots, which cost 120 Wen, and 310 catties of rock sugar, which cost 250 Wen. He also bought some grains. , It cost 120 Wen to feed the piglets, and 930 Wen for other odds and ends. It cost a total of 1000 Wen, three taels of silver plus the last time, and there is still leftovers. Galla, a total of [-] taels of silver and [-] taels were left. It took [-] taels for the piglets, [-] taels for the chickens, leaving [-] taels.Ling Wensheng was happy, thinking that his family was quite rich, with more than [-] Wen, which was more than one or two taels of silver.But Ling Tianyang felt that it was not enough, because they still had to go to Qingxiang County, Ling Wensheng definitely couldn't go, Ling Tianyang had to go, but Ling Wensheng would definitely go there, the light travel expenses were quite a lot, and they had to eat and stay, these were all money, It seems that we still have to make some money by selling gall.

Early the next morning, Ling Wensheng took Ling Tianyang and the second child to go up the mountain to pick wild grapes, preparing to make the first batch of wine at night.

The place they went today was the mountain stream that the second child took him to last time. Each of them had a sack in their back baskets. Ling Tianyang was not worried about herself. What she was worried about was the second child, how strong an eight or nine-year-old boy would be. Anyway, she thought that when she couldn't recite it back, she would go down the mountain and call Wang Shi. The ripe grapes should not be left for too long, at most one night at most, or they would rot any longer.

At home, Mrs. Wang carried the pot to the river to clean it. Ling Tianyang told her that the pot should not be stained with oil or iron, so Mrs. Wang washed it very carefully.

"Hey, Aunt Ling, why are you washing so many clay pots?" Aunt Fei Jiang carefully stepped on the stone with a basin of clothes.

"Hey, Aunt Fei, come and do the laundry! My Yangyang said she wanted to get some pickles, no, let me help her with the jars." Ling Tianyang had already told his family, don't miss out Get to the bottom of it, otherwise, it will be a disaster.

Both Wang and Ling Wensheng knew that when money was involved, kind people might become evil, so she made up an excuse and told Jiang that, besides, their family really wanted to make pickles. , is not a lie.

"Oh, your Yangyang family is really diligent, the Yan family is lucky this time!"

Mrs. Wang smiled embarrassingly, and didn't answer. If it was before it rained, maybe she would happily answer Mrs. Jiang. Now it is not only raining, but also their family can survive. She is becoming more and more disdainful of family matters.But Ling Wensheng said in the ancestral hall that day that their family, Yangyang and Ji, would get married later, what could she do?The only blame for this was that she couldn't say a few words to Ling Wensheng at that time, she only wanted her daughter to live, and she became a villain because of this, so let's not mention this matter.

"Aunt Fei, I've finished washing, so take your time!" Mrs. Wang carried the clay pot on her back and walked home.

Seeing Wang's back, Mrs. Jiang shook her head. It's not like the Ling family can't survive now, and they have to marry a girl as good as Yangyang to the Yan family, hey!

Back home, the more Wang thought about it, the more she felt that her daughter was at a loss, so she sat down in a daze. The third and fourth dug up a lot of crickets to feed the chickens, and even caught a bunch of grasshoppers when they came back. Sitting in the yard dumbfounded, he shouted loudly: "Mom, I'm hungry, have you cooked yet?"

Only then did Wang realize that she didn't seem to be cooking yet, so she stood up and patted her pant legs, "Wait a minute, mother, let's do it now!"

Ling Tianyang and Ling Wensheng were panting, and finally brought the three big wild grapes home. After lunch, Ling Tianyang and the second child went to hunt pigweed. Now the three little pigs are still young, and they don't eat that much, just potatoes. They chopped it up and fed it with a little pigweed, so usually they would pack two baskets of pigweed, enough for the pigs to eat for three days.

Mrs. Wang and Ling Wensheng went to wash the grapes, and the third child and the fourth child picked the washed grapes one by one. After Ling Tianyang came back, he washed his hands, crushed the grapes one by one, and put them in the clay pot. Basically, one layer of grapes and one layer of rock sugar, usually two ounces of sugar per catty of grapes, Wang shook his head and shouted, what a prodigal!

Don't fill the clay pots for wine making, only one third of the jars are left, this is to prevent the jars from bursting. After sealing, the second child will put the jars upstairs in a cool and ventilated place.The whole family worked together, and soon the 31 clay pots were filled. Now there is a row of pots in the empty upstairs. Ling Wensheng was very happy to see it, but Wang was not very happy. At that time, they will all lose to them.

The wild grapes in the mountain stream next to the pine forest are basically finished, but there are still 49 empty clay pots. Ling Tianyang is worried, but she dare not go to the pine forest.Ling Wensheng was also anxious, saying from time to time: If I had known, I wouldn't have bought so many clay pots, his money!

On this day, Ling Tianyang, Ling Wensheng and the second child walked to a fork in the road, Ling Tianyang asked Ling Wensheng, "Father, are there any grapes on Laige Mountain?"

Ling Wensheng shook his head, Ling Tianyang was still not discouraged, and continued to ask: "What about those mountains behind Laige Mountain?"

"I haven't been to those places. Riger Mountain is big enough. No one in our village has traveled all over Riger Mountain, let alone the mountains behind. Besides, it's almost as long as we cross Riger Mountain." It's been a long time, if I go further, I will definitely not be able to go home tonight, there are many wolves in that mountain, so don't think about it!"

Ling Tianyang drooped her head, she blamed herself for where she was going now, she saw that there were many on the other side of the mountain stream, and thought it was enough, but she didn't expect it was still a long way off.

The second child raised his head to look at Ling Tianyang and Ling Wensheng, then quickly lowered his head again, grabbing the corner of his clothes with one hand, hesitant to speak.

After a long time, Ling Wensheng sighed, "Why don't we go pick gallnuts!"

"it is good!"

What else can I do now, should I go back empty-handed?

"No!" The second child suddenly grabbed Ling Wensheng who was walking back, "Father, I also know that there is a place where there are grapes, and there are many grapes there. It was another time when we went to play in the mountain stream and walked there accidentally. It's just that I have a request, if you know, can you not tell anyone in the future, this is my promise to him!"

Ling Tianyang looked at the second child in surprise, no wonder the second child looked sullen when they went up the mountain, it turned out that there was such a secret, "Okay, sister will definitely not tell others! Second child, that place belongs to you and the other A secret base for one person?"

"What is a secret base?"

"Secret base?"

Ling Wensheng and the second child asked at the same time.

Ling Tianyang pulled his hair embarrassingly, "That is the secret place that belongs to the two of you!"

"Well, the two of us found that place, I promised her and him, and I won't tell anyone in the future, but now..."

Ling Tianyang felt very guilty for asking the second child to betray his promise, and Ling Wensheng also lowered his head and remained silent. He was originally an honest and responsible person, and asking him to do such a thing was worse than killing him.For a moment, the three stood silently at the fork in the road, not knowing what to say.

"Huh? What are you father and son doing standing at the intersection?" Daniel looked at Ling Wensheng and the three of them with a funny look on his back.

"Daniu, are you going up the mountain too?" Ling Wensheng raised his head and asked.

"Yeah, the autumn harvest will be in a few days. I'm afraid I don't have time to chop firewood and burn it at home, so I went up to the mountain today to chop some firewood. How about you?"

"We, we..."

"We also went up the mountain to cut firewood, and my second child and I followed Dad up the mountain to find food!"

Ling Wensheng never lied, so Ling Tianyang quickly answered, "Uncle Big Niu, are you going over there to cut firewood?"

"I'll go to the pine forest to see, the firewood there is thicker. Hey, you don't think about going there to cut firewood at the intersection, do you?" Daniu laughed out loud when he thought of this.

Ling Wensheng was extremely embarrassed. Although they were not going to chop firewood, they really didn't know which way to go.

"Uncle Big Niu, my second child and I want to go up the mountain to find wild grapes to eat. Do you know where there are more wild grapes?" Since you don't want your second child to betray your trust, it is also possible to find other people.

"Wild grapes? There are many pine forests for that thing, but few children dare to go to the pine forests to pick them. You are very brave. In fact, I know a place, and I will take you there later!" Daniel thought, Liu Qiao's family He probably knew the situation, maybe the children were so hungry that they couldn't go into the mountains to find food, so he enthusiastically walked in front, shouting from time to time, startling countless flying birds.
