Early the next morning, everyone in the house was called to the courtyard in front of the main house, and everyone exchanged ears and inquired about the news.

I didn't have much effort, but I saw Jiang Huang come out of the house with the young master, and the uncle and the young master also came and followed alongside. Jiang Anyong smiled and said, "Brother, as soon as you come, you will convene everyone to discuss the matter, and I also made an appointment with someone to go to the county seat to play." ”

Jiang Anyi took a step forward, stood on the steps of the main house and said, "I am Jiang Anyi, many of you have never seen me. There are 100 people in the family, and there is one person in charge, as the head of the family, I gathered everyone together today, and there are some rules to explain clearly. ”

Everyone gradually calmed down, and cast their eyes in awe on Jiang Anyi, I don't know what this family master said, one thing is certain, someone is going to be unlucky, Young Master Fang is carrying a leather whip, leaning on the pillar, a pair of leopard eyes are staring at everyone, if Young Master Fang whips down, it is estimated that he will have to lose a layer of skin.

"Everyone knows that three years ago, the Jiang family was just an ordinary farmer, and now although the situation has changed, the essence of the Jiang family farmers cannot be lost." Looking at the people in the courtyard, Jiang Anyi said: "Thank you for your love to the Jiang family, from today onwards, the Jiang family will no longer keep so many people." ”

A stone hit a thousand waves, and the people in the courtyard immediately boiled, and the words became noisy, and the "buzzing" sounded so loudly that it was impossible to hear who was saying something.

"The land hanging in the name of the Jiang family is requested to be taken back by the landlord, if the people who defect to the Jiang family have a good place to go, please leave by themselves, if there is nowhere to go, the Jiang family has land and land, you can work in it, and get paid according to your work. Also, the Jiang family doesn't need to take care of the family, if you are willing to stay in the fields and work, the Jiang family welcomes it, otherwise please ask another Gao Ming. ”

"As for who can stay," Jiang Anyi hesitated for a moment, saw Uncle Wang at the bottom of the stairs, and said, "It's up to you Uncle Wang." Uncle Wang, you are loyal, I can trust you. By the way, each person who left will pay one or two silver for the journey, and you will come to me when the number of people is counted. ”

Uncle Wang stepped forward excitedly and said: "Thank you young master for your trust, my old Wang has long seen some people unpleasant, young master, don't worry, although Lao Wang is useless, he won't look at people." ”

A group of strong men stood on the left side of the courtyard, there were more than 20 people, led by the round-faced Zhang Tianfeng, who was the gatekeeper, and he raised his face and said unhappily: "Uncle, it was the second master who invited me to come at the beginning, and now it is not so easy to drive me away." ”

Hearing Zhang Tianfeng's shouting, the men beside him also shouted, "Second master, I am the person recommended by your cousin, you have to look at the face of the Buddha if you don't look at the monk's face, don't drive me away", "Jiang Ye, the little one still has to wait for you to play with birds", "Second master, the little one is going to take you to the county seat to play today, can you let me go"......

Seeing Jiang Anyi's disdainful face, Zhang Tianfeng raised his hand and motioned for everyone to stop, "Hehe" sneered: "Uncle Jiang, you are the master, you will come when you say it, you will get out of it, you have the final say." But before leaving, the account has to be calculated. My Lao Zhang didn't sell himself to your Jiang family, it was Master Wu of the Martial Arts Pavilion who recommended me to come, and it has been a hundred days, how many disasters have my Lao Zhang blocked for your Jiang family, and every time the second master hurts someone, it is my Lao Zhang who comes forward to settle it. With my old Zhang's worth, two taels of silver a day is not expensive, Jiang Ye, you are so-so, Jiang Ye will reward two hundred taels, and I, Zhang Tianfeng, will immediately get out of the way. ”

The man beside him rolled up his arms and sleeves, shouting again and again, looking like a fierce god possessing his body, Jiang Huang and Yan'er were so frightened that they took a step back. Jiang Anyi glared at Jiang Anyong angrily, and his younger brother invited someone back. Jiang Anyong was a little dumbfounded when he saw the fierce appearance of the person who slipped the beard and slapped the horse on weekdays.

Jiang Anyi is no longer the peasant boy in Pingshan Town at the beginning, he has several lives in his hands, and Guo Jingshan of the Yuantian Sect is planted in his hands, how can he be afraid of these scoundrels.

With a sarcastic smile on his face, Jiang Anyi took a few steps forward, stood directly in front of Zhang Tianfeng, stared at his eyes and said, "Five taels of silver, get out, dare to entangle, see you in the prison." ”

Zhang Tianfeng had learned a lesson from Jiang Anyi yesterday, and knew that this master was not easy to mess with, but at this moment, seeing the fire in Jiang Anyi's eyes, his heart was empty, he took a step back, and said forcefully: "The little one doesn't dare to fight with you, but last month, the second master stepped on the rice fields of Nanshui Township, and the villagers sued the government, and the government took people, but the small ones went to take the blame." ”

The more Zhang Tianfeng said that Zhang Tianfeng's courage became, he reached out and tore open his clothes, showing everyone the whip marks that still left marks on his back, and said, "What did Jiang Ye say about these ten whips?" ”

Jiang Anyi looked back at Jiang Anyong, only to see Jiang Anyong drooping his head, Jiang Huang scolded: "An Yong, you are really getting more and more bold, you actually do such a thing, you ...... you"

"Brother Fang, you go get a whip." Jiang Anyi returned to the eaves and said to Fang Zhi beside him. The people in the courtyard suddenly exploded their nests and took the whip, who is the eldest young master going to teach a lesson, and it is good to teach the second master a lesson, if he whips Zhang Tianfeng, it will be a bully. Everyone was shocked, and Fang Zhizhong walked over with a leather whip.

"An Yong." Jiang Anyi opened his mouth to call his younger brother.

Jiang Anyong's face was pale, he didn't expect his brother to whip himself, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, I was wrong, I won't dare next time." ”

"Yi'er." Jiang Huang hurriedly opened his mouth to stop him: "It's because my mother is not strict in discipline that I let An Yong do something wrong, just pay more silver taels, he is still young, you can discipline him more." ”

The two uncles were also beside each other to persuade each other, and the cousins cowered and did not dare to step forward, and their eyes became frightened and uneasy when they saw Jiang Anyi.

Yan'er cried out with a "wow", shook Jiang Anyi's arm and shouted, "You are not allowed to beat the second brother, you are not allowed to beat the second brother." ”

Zhang Tianfeng and the others looked at Jiang Anyi with gloating expressions.

Jiang Anyi frowned, looked at his younger brother and said, "An Yong, take off your shirt." ”

Jiang Anyong saw that his brother insisted on beating him, so he took off his shirt angrily, threw it on the ground, and glared at Jiang Anyi with his naked upper body and huffing.

"Brother, our father died early, in order to let my brother study, you were a domestic servant at the age of ten, and my brother saw you secretly wiping your tears more than once." Jiang Anyi's voice trembled a little, and he pointed to a shallow mark on Jiang Anyi's cheek and said, "This scar was injured by falling off the back of the cow when you were herding the cow." ”

Pulling up his younger brother's left arm, there was a scar on his front elbow that was inches long, Jiang Anyi choked and said: "This wound was left by you fighting for this useless brother, and I don't dare to tell my mother, when I wrapped the wound for you, my heart was also bleeding." ”

Hearing Jiang Anyi crying, Jiang Huang couldn't cry anymore, and helped Yan'er cry together. Jiang Anyong's eyes were also moist, and he said, "Brother, don't say it, it's my mistake, and you just whip the surname I back." ”

Jiang Anyi's hand stroked a few whip marks on his brother's shoulder, and his voice gradually became cold, "These whip marks were left by you in the prison, and I made up my mind at that time that I would never let you be hurt for me again, as long as my brother and I live, I will make you comfortable for a lifetime." ”

Jiang Anyi's words were categorical, Jiang Anyong raised his head and looked at his brother with some confusion, since this is the case, why did his brother beat himself with a whip?

"Our father died early, and it was all up to my mother to pull our brothers and sisters to grow up, and my brother has never forgotten those hard days." Jiang Anyi looked at his family affectionately and said, "Now the life at home is better, but you can't forget your roots." An Yong, think about it, what would have happened if our field had been trampled on, would you have fought hard with the person who stepped on the field? ”

Jiang Anyong lowered his head and was speechless, and said, "Brother, I was wrong, you can beat me." ”

"If the Son does not teach, the Father is guilty. Our father is gone, the eldest brother is like a father, and the responsibility of teaching you naturally falls on me. I'm very incompetent as an elder brother, I'm not at home all the year round, and I think I can let you live as you like, I don't restrain you, let you go astray, it's not terrible to make mistakes, as long as you don't make them again. However, if you make a mistake, you will be punished, and in order for you to remember, this whip cannot be left undrawn. ”

Jiang Anyi suddenly stretched out his hand to untie his shirt, revealing his upper body, and said to Fang Zhizhong: "Brother Fang, my younger brother made a mistake, it was I, the elder brother, who was not strict in discipline, and I should pay for these ten whips." ”

"How can this work, brother, I made a mistake, you should hit me." Jiang Anyong hurriedly rushed forward and stopped Fang Zhizhong.

Jiang Huang hurriedly shouted: "Yi'er, don't be stupid, let's pay the money, you brothers must be well, and no one should be hurt." ”

Jiang Anyi said with a smile: "An Yong, the whip hurt in your body back then, and today I will let you taste the pain in my heart, if you really feel sorry for your brother, then remember, don't make mistakes again." Mother, don't worry, my son can stand it. ”

pushed Jiang Anyong away, Jiang Anyi shouted: "Heavy, let's do it." ”

Fang Zhizhong was a little hesitant with the leather whip, and Jiang An shouted sharply: "If you don't make a move, are you waiting for others to see the joke?" ”

No longer hesitating, Fang Zhi raised his whip and whipped it towards Jiang Anyi's back, and with a "snap", a red mark appeared on Jiang Anyi's snow-white skin.

"Don't keep your hands, use your strength, and the whip will see blood." Jiang Anyi thought about it all night last night, in order to make his younger brother remember it for a long time, he was really ruthless, endured the great pain, and gritted his teeth without saying a word.

"Smack", another whip fell, and a "blood centipede" appeared on his back, Fang Zhizhong is a sincere person, and he is no longer merciful, it is really a whip to see blood, ten whips down, Jiang Anyi's back is already bloody and blurry.

Jiang Anyong knelt on the ground, crying tears, Jiang Huang covered his mouth stiffly, looking at his two sons with heartache and happiness, Yan'er ran to Jiang Anyong's side, gently kicked the second brother with her legs, and cried: "It's all your fault, and the eldest brother will be beaten for you." ”

Zhang Tianfeng and the others looked at the blood marks on Jiang Anyi's back, and inhaled cold air again and again, this Jiang Ye is really a ruthless person, much stronger than that straw bag second master.

After ten lashes, Jiang Anyong crawled to his brother's side, hugged Jiang Anyi's legs and cried bitterly. Jiang Huang cried and ordered: "Hurry up, go find Jin Chuangyao." ”

The two uncles stepped forward to support Jiang Anyi, one left and one right, and mixed him into the house and sat down, Jiang Huang personally applied the golden medicine to his son, Yan'er shed tears, puffed out her mouth, and gently blew on the wound for her brother. Jiang Anyong rubbed his hands, so anxious that he didn't know how to speak.

In the courtyard, Uncle Wang said loudly: "The eldest young master has already ordered just now, my old Wang will be a villain today, don't blame me for anyone who wants to leave." ”

Everyone "exhaled" and surrounded Uncle Wang, and said good things. Zhang Tianfeng and the others gathered together and discussed something in a low voice.
