Chapter 64: 、 65

When the carriage arrived at Luoxia Village, it was already late, and Xia Hongzhi got out of the carriage and called the door.
Dahei Erhei didn't know him well and barked out in the yard.
Yang was just about to go to bed on the kang. He heard someone shouting outside, and heard the screams of Dahei Erhei. He guessed who was looking for her in his heart.
But ordinary acquaintances Dahei Erhei would not be so fierce.
Yang walked out of the house in his clothes, and when he arrived in the yard, he heard the voice like her grandson Hongzhi.
"Is Hongzhi?"
Xia Hongzhi responded outside the courtyard, "Grandma, it's me, I'm back with my parents."
The Yang hurried forward to open the courtyard gate excitedly. There was no light outside, except for a ‘dead wind’ lamp hung beside the carriage, emitting a dizzy yellow light. When Zhou heard Yang's voice, he got out of the carriage, and when he got down, he hugged his daughter Xia Lanju.
As soon as he saw his mother-in-law Yang, Zhou's tears came out.
"mother--"
Zhou also had a hard time during this period, and the grandfather went to jail, and her hair was almost white when she was worried outside. Usually when the children dare not show a fragile expression in front of them, for fear of increasing their panic. All the way back home nervously, seeing the mother-in-law who had always been enlightened and kind to her, she couldn't bear it anymore.
Yang hurried forward to hug his daughter-in-law, "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Where's Dacheng?"
Zhou cried two more times before he stopped sobbing, fearing that Yang was scared. Turned around and opened the curtain of the carriage, went up and helped Xia Dacheng down, and asked the driver to help her.
Xia Dacheng had a serious injury on his hip and back, and it took a lot of effort for the two to remove Xia Dacheng from the car.
Even so, Xia Dacheng was sore in pain.
"Oh, my baby!" Yang knew the situation was not good, and he didn't care about crying, so he hurried up and lifted Xia Dacheng into the house. Xia Hongzhi and Xia Lanju couldn't get any hands in. They got into the carriage and took down the family salute.
Seeing that someone had arrived, the coachman had paid for the car in advance, so he turned around and drove away in the carriage.
Entering the house, Yang placed Xia Dacheng on the kang in the main room. She usually sleeps in this kang, and it has already burnt very warm. I asked the two grandchildren if they had dinner, and even ignored the wounds on his son's body, and went to the kitchen room to cook with clothes on.
Yang ordered a large pot of multi-grain noodles, and even extravagantly beat a few eggs in the noodles, preparing to let his daughter-in-law, son and two grandchildren eat two of them.
Yang's eyes are poisonous, although he didn't ask the children or say anything, but when he saw his son, daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren, he knew that he had suffered serious crimes.
The noodles were served hot, yellowish noodles, green onion, and two poached eggs lying on the noodles.
Zhou and the children were already hungry. They set off at noon, and even had no extra money for lunch. Horse-drawn carriages are expensive to hire, and they have to go at night, so the price is even higher. After paying for the car, Zhou's remaining money was only enough to sell Xia Dacheng another pack of wound medicine.
Zhou brought a bowl of noodles and prepared to feed Xia Dacheng first, Yang took the bowl and let her eat by herself, and she came to feed her son.
Zhou Shi and Xia Zhihong both ate deliciously, only Xia Lanju thought the noodles were not delicious, and they were a little bit throaty.
It is true that most of the villagers in Luoxia Village eat coarse grains, and they are reluctant to eat fine grains in exchange for money. Although Yang has a son who can earn money, Yang is frugal by nature and eats coarse grains mixed with fine grains. This time when Yang made noodles, he specially kneaded some white noodles into it, but after all, it is mixed noodles, so it is normal that there is no white noodles that taste good.
Xia Dacheng's family ate fine grains in the county. How could they be used to coarse grains? Every year when Xia Dacheng came back with his daughter-in-law, son and daughter, Xia Lanju felt that the meal at home was not delicious.
But even if it’s not delicious, you have to eat it. Although Xia Lanju is only ten years old, she also knows that her family’s situation is different from before. Their family may never go back to the county, but will stay in the country and become her friends in the county. We talk about mud legs in the country.
Thinking about it, the 10-year-old girl shed tears. Afraid of being discovered by my own parents, I only dared to cry but not to speak out.
Xia Hongzhi was sitting opposite her sister eating noodles, and seeing her crying, he reached out and touched her head. He made a secret decision in his heart that he must study hard in the future, and then take the whole family back to the county.
Even though a 13 or 14-year-old child is prudent, he still thinks a little simple. The only way for country folks with no background to get ahead is to take the imperial examination. But the way of imperial examination is so easy, so the children of Xia Zhihong still have a long way to go.
Over there, Yang fed Xia Dacheng noodles, and grinned as he watched his son take a bite, tears came out uncontrollably.
"Dacheng, my baby, what a terrible crime you are."
Xia Dacheng smiled, but his smile looked very ugly on his pierced face.
"Mother, I'm fine. I'll finish the meal later, I'll talk to you in detail."
In fact, Xia Dacheng didn't know what to say to his mother now, he didn't know if he told his mother, whether his mother would think he was ineffective. He knew that his damsel would definitely not think so, but after all, after a long time, there is always a sense of embarrassment in such a downturn.
Yang wiped away his tears, did not speak any more, feeding his son noodles bit by bit.
After everyone had eaten, Yang placed the two children back to the house, and then came to sit down in front of the Kang, waiting for Xia Dacheng to explain things to her clearly.
Xia Dacheng saw what Yang looked like, and knew that he couldn't hide it, and indeed he couldn't hide it, so he could only tell him about it.
While listening, Yang yelled at the vicious principal. But Yang knew in his heart that this matter could only be cursed to relieve his anger, and he didn't need to think about revenge. Their family has mud legs, and they can be killed by one finger.
After listening, Yang raised his spirits and comforted Xia Dacheng, tidying up the hall, and letting Xia Dacheng and his wife go to bed first.
Yang’s house is three large tiled houses. He usually lives on the kang in the main house. The east is the room where Xia Dacheng and his wife come back to live, and the west is Xia Hongzhi’s room. Xia Lanju used to stay at a young age. Granny lives. Today, Xia Dacheng’s family came back in a hurry. The Yang family did not burn the kang in the two rooms, so they arranged Xia Dacheng’s couple in the main room. Xia Lanju went to sleep in the east room.
It was late at night, but none of the Yang family members could sleep.

Xia Dacheng originally thought that his family's return home would add a lot of burden to the elderly mother, and it would definitely be difficult for him to live in the future.
Who knew Yang told him that he didn't have to worry about healing his injuries, and she had enough money here.
Xia Dacheng didn't believe it, he still didn't know if his mother had any money. He gave the annual support, and no matter how much he saved, he wouldn't be able to support such a big family for long. In particular, the family’s farm was also planted by others. Yang’s income was some grains handed in by the tenants, and Yang was not free to embroider some things to sell, and he respected some of them every year.
In order to persuade her son, Yang could only tell Xia Dacheng that she and Tie Zhu's wife had done a small business in partnership, and they could make a lot of money every day.
Xia Dacheng curiously asked what kind of small business it was, and the Yang family just said it. Hearing that my old mother can distribute a lot of money every day, although the money is not much, it is enough for the family to live. As long as it is not a problem to eat frugally, Xia Dacheng can't help but temporarily let go of his heavy heart.
After letting go, I fell asleep. Although the injuries on Xia Dacheng's body were not fatal, they were quite serious. He was injured for a hundred days, and he had to lie in bed for at least a few months.
Before Zhou came back, he had seen his injuries in the county town. The doctor prescribed some medicines for the injuries. So Xia Dacheng didn’t need to go to the hospital anymore. He just kept it at home and took care of the medicine. .
Yang is a strong person. When he was young, he was able to lose his husband and grow up with his only son. Today, he won't fall into trouble. Qiang cheered up to appease the still a little surprised daughter-in-law and two grandchildren.
After all, when I arrived at my own home, at least I didn't have to be afraid of sleeping on the street or lack of food and clothing, plus Xia Dacheng was only injured and there was no life threatening. To have such a result, Zhou felt it was a great fortune. The whole family got rid of the panic they felt when they first came back, and settled down to start their lives at home.
Yang Tiegen and his wife have come to the Yang family almost every day recently. After coming today, Xia Dacheng's family has returned. Seeing Xia Dacheng in bed again, he asked Yang in surprise.
Yang did not hide the truth from the two of them, so he just said it.
After hearing this, Yang Tiegen and his wife were shocked, and hurriedly went back to talk to Yang Tiezhu and his wife.
When Yang Tiezhu and Lin Qingwan heard that it was okay, they couldn't sit still and went to the Yang family.
This is the first time Yang Tiezhu has been out of the gate of the yard since his injury. Lin Qingwan gave him a thick dress before letting him go out and put on a big cotton jacket. Yang Tiezhu did not look like an injured person from the outside, but his left shoulder was still unable to move and was hung on his chest by a bandage.
After the last application of the medicine, the doctor in the medical center bandaged Yang Tiezhu's arm and shoulder, which is a bit similar to modern arm fractures and wounds and bandages to hang on his neck. It's just that there was no bandage in ancient times, so the doctor fixed Yang Tiezhu's fractured shoulder with a clean white cloth, and then tied a cloth tape around his arm and hung it around his neck to prevent the movement from hurting the bones.
Lin Qingwan also wore thick ones, and Yao was holding her beside her. The road was slippery in the snow, for fear that she would accidentally fall.
A group of people went to the Yang family in a mighty manner, and when they left, they attracted the attention of the He family and the Wang family.
It's just that no one cares about them, even Yang Tiegen, who has always been honest, doesn't talk when he sees them, unless He takes the initiative to talk to him. However, He has nothing to say to him now, and the support has been obtained, and He has returned to the original expressionless and indifferent to them.
Father Yang sometimes saw them and didn't speak, maybe because he didn't know what to say, he was simply embarrassed.
When they arrived at Yang's house, Yang saw them, and hurriedly arranged Yang Tiezhu and Lin Qingwan, two key protection targets, to sit on the kang.
There is not enough space on the Kang, Yang Tiegen and Yao are sitting below.
Yang introduced Lin Qingwan to Xia Dacheng, and Xia Dacheng's wife Zhou. Xia Dacheng was lying on the kang, his wife Zhou saw them coming and greeted them with Yang, and sat back on the kang beside Xia Dacheng.
After the courtesy between the two sides, Lin Qingwan began to look at Xia Dacheng's couple.
This is the first time Lin Qingwan has seen this legendary Yang's son. He looks in his thirties, with a square face and thick eyebrows, and he is very pretty. It was just that he was so thin and his face was sickly that made this middle-aged man look a lot weaker. Zhou has a plump body, a round face, and a calm temperament without loss of generosity. The first impression is that he is easy to get along with.
Here, the Yang family called Xia Dacheng's two children again, introduced them to Lin Qingwan, and asked them to be called Aunt Biao. Yang Tiezhu, Yang Tiegen, and the Yao family have met the two children, and only Lin Qingwan, who married this year, has never met.
The two children have been raised in the county since they were young, and they were raised with delicate skin and tender flesh. They looked different from the children in the country. The key point is that both of them are good-looking. Lin Qingwan liked this young lady and little loli at a glance.
Taking out the little red seal that had been prepared in advance, Lin Qingwan stuffed it into the hands of the two children.
Yang blamed her for spending money, Lin Qingwan smiled and said that this is the rule. In Luoxia Village, it is the first time for the juniors to meet the elders, and the elders are to be sealed by Xiaohong. Some put a few pennies in it, and some put dozens of pennies in it. Because of the close relationship between Lin Qingwan and the Yang family, the silver corners were stuffed inside.
Not much, one person and a half of silver, two people add up to one or two. In Luoxia Village, it can be considered very generous.
"This is the allowance given to you by cousin and aunt. Hongzhi will buy some pens and ink, and Juer will buy some flower belts." Yang's grandson Xia Hongzhi has been studying, Lin Qingwan knows.
The two children thanked Lin Qingwan shyly, and went to the side, and the adults sat and talked together again.
When it comes to what happened to Xia Dacheng, everyone sighs. Overnight, from the sky to the earth, the family wealth was scattered, and the whole body was hurt. The point is that there is no way to get justice back, knowing that someone else is tackling you, you can only knock down your teeth and swallow blood.
The expressions of everyone in the room were lowered.
Zhou's thoughts about when he first entered the prison and the miserable situation when he came out, he couldn't help but shed sad tears.
Lin Qingwan was also very uncomfortable in her heart, but she didn't know how to comfort others. After all, things didn't happen to her, and any comforting language seemed so pale.
Yang's strong spirits rallied and finished the game, "It's alright, it's good for people to come back. As long as people are there, how much money can't be made back in the future?!"
Everyone also knows that Xia Da became able to come out and dissipated all the fortunes. After more than ten years of hard work, it disappeared overnight.
But what can we do? Just like Yang said, it’s good if the person is still there, isn’t it like the old shopkeeper of Xia Dacheng’s superior?
In order to enliven the atmosphere, Yang Tiezhu smiled and said, "Brother Dacheng, you see that we are both injured and sick." After speaking, he raised his bandaged arm gently.
Xia Dacheng smiled weakly: "Yes, I still can't move while lying in bed. It's the bitter mother and your sister-in-law, and two children." Then, he couldn't help covering his mouth and coughing. Two times.
Yang groans, "What are you talking about, it's all a family!"
"That is, Brother Dacheng, how big things can be done. Raise it well. It is estimated that the beginning of the year will be fine. We can no longer go to the county, just farm well in the countryside, and it is not that we can't live. Minger cultivated the Hongzhi boy, A few years later, you will also be the father of a high-ranking official." Yang Tiezhu comforted.
His remarks made everyone laugh. Xia Hongzhi was blushing and white, but finally he was a little embarrassed and went back to his house.
Xia Dacheng nodded, he thought so too, and he can only do that now. It can't be said that if you fall, you can't get up. It doesn't matter if he can't get up, he can't implicate his family.
So he also worked hard and said: "I plan to take back our family's land in the beginning of the year, and plant it by myself. No matter whether it is hard or not, I always make more money."
The Yang family doesn't have much land, just 3 or 4 acres. Xia Dacheng thought, it is enough for him and his wife to be two races, and they won't be very tired. After all, both he and Zhou were born in chuang households, and they were given to the family when they were young. It's just that I haven't planted land for a long time, and it may be difficult to get started. But when it comes to this point, hard work is secondary, and it is impossible for the whole family to eat without food.
As for his mother Yang's dividends from Tie Zhu's wife, Xia Dacheng, who had always been cautious, did not dare to put all his family's livelihoods on it. Because he also asked carefully and heard his mother say that this small business has only been done for more than a month, as to whether he can continue to do it in the future or not. He planned to take back the home to be safe. After all, the country folks are still based on the land. No matter what, at least there is no need to worry about starving to death without food. He also wanted to allow his son to continue his studies. It is always good to earn more.
"It's a good idea. The land is taken back to grow by yourself, and you can get a lot of food every year. After all, the tenants also pay 60% every year, and 40% more food for the family will not worry about it." Yang Tiezhu said.
In Luoxia Village, the land where tenants go out generally only collects 60% of the rent, and the owner of the tax land pays it himself. Luoxia Village is poor, and many people are eager to plant as much land as possible. Few people will rent out their land. At the beginning, the Yang family did not expect to make any income when they went out. After all, she couldn't grow so much land by herself, and her son wouldn't let her grow.
After this series of gags, Xia Dacheng, who was still a bit at a loss, gradually had some ideas in his heart, and he didn't seem so depressed.
Yang looked at his son's complexion a lot, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his eyes.
