"Thank you, Mr. Rizheng, for being considerate, but I don't know what I can do?"
Li Zheng said: "You can do a lot of things like measuring land and harvesting grain. As long as you are willing, I will give you one hundred and fifty Wen every month. How about it?"
One hundred and fifty yuan a month was not as much as he earned moving goods in Liangzhou Prefecture, but work moving goods was not always available.
Boss Zeng wanted to agree, "You're going to be busy with farming, how about I help you during the slack time?"
"Brother, since Master Li Zheng thinks so highly of you, why don't you agree quickly?" Zeng Laosan said, "When the farm is busy, my second brother and I are here. Master Li Zheng is willing to take you to see the world. Even if it doesn't cost you, you should go with him." ah."
Li Zheng laughed loudly listening to Zeng Laosan's words, "You are a young man, but you are very good at talking. If you had the physique of your elder brother, I would rather use you."
Zeng Laosan said: "Thank you, Mr. Li Zheng, for the compliment."
"Dashu, I mentioned this to you. You go back and think about it carefully. I won't ask you to agree now." Li Zheng led the donkey and walked in the middle of the road. "After two days, your home will be settled. If you want to do things with me, just come to my house and find me.”
"Thank you Rimasa."
It was more than three miles, but thanks to the straight donkey cart, there was still some light in the sky when we got home.
As soon as the donkey cart entered the village, some children went to Zeng's house to report the news. Everyone knew that Mrs. Zeng was looking forward to her two sons returning home.
Before the donkey cart reached the door, Mrs. Zeng rushed over, "Boss! Third child! I miss my mother so much!"
Meizi helped Zeng Laosan get off the donkey cart. When Zeng's mother and son were reunited, Meizi thanked Li Zheng, "Thank you for sending us back. Come home and have a cup of hot tea."
Hearing Mei Zi's voice, Zeng Boss was relieved from the joy of mother and son's reunion, "Yes, Li Zheng, come home and have a cup of tea."
"No, I have to go home." Li Zheng led the donkey cart back, "Let's go!"
"Master Li Zheng!" Boss Zeng handed the package on his body to Mei Zi, took the small cloth bag on Mei Zi's body, and caught up with Li Zheng's donkey cart, "It's going to be dark soon, and I can't see the road clearly. I'll take you back. "
Li Zheng nodded, "Okay, then you can give it to me."
Mrs. Zeng watched the donkey cart go away before asking, "Why is it that Li Zheng is sending you back?"
The third child said: "We couldn't walk near Feijiapu, so we happened to meet Li Zheng. He kindly let us take a donkey cart back."
"When did Li Zheng become so kind?" Second sister-in-law Chi Chunmei stood at the door and looked at them.
At this time Zeng Laosan took a breath, and Mrs. Zeng who was holding him became nervous immediately, "Where did I touch you? Where are you injured? Quickly show me."
Zeng Laosan covered his shoulders and lowered his voice and said, "Let's talk about it when we go home. I really can't stand anymore."
"Hurry! Come into the house quickly!" Mrs. Zeng pulled the third child and left, completely unaware of Mei Zi standing beside her.
It was Zeng Laosan who turned around and called her, "Sister-in-law, I'm home!"
"Don't worry about her! Take care of yourself!" Mrs. Zeng said, "They say a sister-in-law is like a mother. If they don't take good care of you outside, how can they have any dignity?"
"Mom! That's not what you said." Zeng Laosan frowned and insisted on arguing with Mrs. Zeng, "Yan Jun is going to attack. What can my sister-in-law do? Even the adults in Beishan County can't stop me. How can my sister-in-law stop me?" Can you live in it? She is a god in the sky? Everyone listens to her?
If that were the case, she wouldn't have to live a hard life in our house! "
Mrs. Zeng slapped him on the back of the head, "You bastard! When you go out, you will even contradict your mother!"
The children watching outside saw Zeng Laosan being beaten and kept making noises.
After entering the house, Mrs. Zeng ordered her second daughter-in-law to close the courtyard door, and then the children who were making noise outside dispersed.
Zeng Laosan was pushed down on the stool. Mrs. Zeng forcefully wanted to see his injuries, so he had to untie his clothes and let her see.
When Mrs. Zeng saw the wounds on her youngest son's body, she shed tears of pain. She cupped her hands beside her, not knowing what to do.
"The person was stabbed through. It was such a serious injury, but Baoshan and the others lied to me and said it didn't matter." Mrs. Zeng rubbed her clothes anxiously.
"Mom, don't cry." Zeng Laosan pressed the wound and wanted to put on his clothes first.
Meizi saw that his dirty clothes were about to touch his wound, but she still couldn't see through it, so she bandaged it for him.
Mrs. Zeng pushed Mei Zi away and said angrily to her: "What do you do for food! You go out just to have enough food for yourself, and your family doesn't even know how to take care of you!"
With Mrs. Zeng's strength, she would have definitely fallen to the ground if she wanted to release the plum from more than a month ago. But now that she is much stronger, she only took a few steps back without falling.
"Mom!" Just as Zeng Laosan was about to speak, the second sister-in-law next to her suddenly said, "Sister-in-law seems to be eating well, and she has grown a lot stronger just by looking at it!"
"Stop arguing!" Zeng Laosan shouted. After he glanced at the second sister-in-law, he said to Mrs. Zeng: "Mom, my injury has nothing to do with my sister-in-law. Without the care of my elder brother and sister-in-law, I would not be able to live in Beishan with peace of mind. The county has been lying down for so many days.
It's too late for me to thank them, and I will never blame them. Mom, if you want to see your elder brother and sister-in-law leave me, just scold them. "
After saying this, Zeng Laosan sat down on the chair.
Mrs. Zeng: "You and your eldest brother are biological brothers. They both came out of my belly. If they dare to leave you, I won't scold them to death."
"Okay, okay, you can scold me if you want, but if you do this I will have a bad conscience and I will leave when the time comes."
"What did you say?"
"What did I say? I said that my elder brother and sister-in-law took care of me throughout the whole process and were kind to me. Please stop scolding them. Since you don't want to listen to me and insist on scolding me, then I have to leave. You will feel at ease when I leave. ”
Mrs. Zeng cried: "You are digging into my heart by saying this."
"What you are doing now is slicing my flesh." Zeng Laosan said: "Even brothers want justice. It makes no sense to bully them to death just because they are older. I really don't understand what you are doing." If we don’t go down, we have no choice but to leave.”
Zeng Laosan became more and more enthusiastic as he talked: "Tomorrow I will ask the aunt in the village to help me find out which family wants a son-in-law and likes me. I will be their son-in-law."
When I leave, feel free to beat and scold your elder brother and sister-in-law, but I won’t be able to see you anyway. "
"You kid!" Mrs. Zeng clenched her fist and wanted to hit him, but she was worried about his injury, so she could only hit her chest with her fist.
Second sister-in-law Chi Chunmei advised, "Third brother, you are unfilial to make my mother sad like this."
Zeng Laosan didn't dare to mess with her before. Her man's leg was lame and injured. He couldn't tell if he was the emperor of the family, and she couldn't tell if he had become a queen.
It's different now. The injury on his body is still fresh. It's time for him to be the emperor of this family.
"Mom, are you listening? I came back with such a serious injury. The wound was still bleeding. I just teased you for a few words, and my second sister-in-law said that I was unfilial. Oh, I'd better leave quickly. This The word "unfilial" crushes me to death."
