Xuzhou, Xiao County.

Since Zhu Asan and his second brother came to commit Zhang Zhan's gang of thieves, his status in Liujiazhuang and his possession has risen sharply. Liu Yuanwai didn't want them to herd cattle and pigs now, so he got two pairs of knives, guns, bows and arrows from the Xiao County arsenal for the brothers, and they went to the mountains to hunt some prey during the day, and at night they took care of the family and the courtyard in the village, and their lives were much better than before.

On this day, the brothers put away the beast fur that had been nitrated, and when they went to the back kitchen to eat, they saw their mother hiding in the corner crying, and hurriedly rushed forward, "A-Niang, which one bullied you?" ”

Seeing that it was the two sons coming, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, and said with a forced smile: "Now you two boys are so fierce, who else dares to bully your mother, just accidentally let the sand into your eyes just now." ”

Zhu Asan was careful and saw that there must be a hidden secret. "A-Niang, we are all older now, and now Liu Yuanwai and our brothers are also very good, if there is any difficulty, although it is said, we can share it."

Seeing his son like this, Wang was relieved. Said slowly: "In another ten days, it will be your Aye's sacrifice day, since we moved to Xuzhou, we haven't gone back to worship and sweep the tomb for several years, I think I'm very sorry for you Aye." ”

Since Zhu Wujing's death, she took her four children from Dangshan in Songzhou to Xiao County in Xuzhou, and many years have passed. Although it was only a hundred and forty miles from Xiao County to Dangshan, they had no time or coiled back, and they had not gone back once for many years.

Listening to my mother is sad about this. Zhu Asan hurriedly said, "A-Niang." It's not a big deal. In previous years, we had no travel expenses. But now we have it. In the past six months, my second brother and I have shot birds and chased away beasts, and usually hunted so many foxes, rabbits, roe deer, wild sheep, wild boars, pheasants, bears and leopards, etc., which can be regarded as greatly enriching the delicious food on Liu Yuanwai's dinner table. Liu Yuanwai was not only happy, but also gave some reward money to our family every time. My second brother and I have saved all this money, and we already have more than a dozen yuan, which was originally intended to be used by my eldest brother to marry his daughter-in-law. I never told A-Niang. Now give it to A-Niang first, and take it to find a sister-in-law for the eldest brother first. ”

Saying that, Zhu Asan went back to the house and took a clay pot, opened it and saw that it was a jar of copper coins from Huang Chengcheng.

"I'll go and take a leave of absence with Liu Yuanwai in a while, and our family will go back to Dangshan and sweep up my father." Zhu Asandao.

Wang held the heavy copper coin jar, and said with relief in his heart: "I am old, and I am afraid that I will not be able to bear the three-hundred-mile round-trip journey, and your sister is also young and inconvenient on the road." Just go to the three of you brothers and buy more paper money. Take a good sweep. As he spoke, he handed the money jar back to his son.

Zhu Asan smiled and said, "A-Niang." Just let the eldest brother stay, you go and find a lady for the eldest brother now, this money is the brother's marriage money. ”

The son is so filial and his brother is friendly, which makes the Wang family very happy. Ten dollars, in such a hungry year, you can also marry a good daughter-in-law for your eldest son, and even as long as you don't look for someone whose family background is too good, even the daughter-in-law of the second son can talk about it. "But you can't go to Dangxian without money."

Zhu Cun smiled at this time: "Ah Niang, we still have some hundreds of loose money, and we have saved a lot of these skins from hunting in the past six months." The bazaar in Songzhou is very large, and it is just right to take it to Songzhou to sell, and then buy some paper money, fruits, wine and meat offerings for Ayedo. ”

"That's good." Wang smiled and said: "I will go to ask the matchmaker in the village to come forward in a while and help introduce Zhang Luo." With this ten yuan of money, I plan to order all the family affairs for you and your eldest brother, and as for the third child, I will order it again when the year is clear. ”

Zhu Cun smiled, his face was a little red. Zhu Asan was also smiling on the side, they were already very satisfied with the life they have now, they could eat enough and wear warm clothes every day. The brothers don't have to think about leftovers at night now, they talk more about marrying a daughter-in-law and having a few babies before going to bed, and the most important thing is to wait for the future to build their own house.

On the same day, the three brothers Zhu Ah went to Liu Chong to take leave, saying that they would go to Dangshan to worship their father. When Liu Chong heard this, he also agreed, and he was still very grateful to Zhu Wujing, an old friend. And the three Zhu brothers, who were originally very scoundrels, have changed a lot since they drove away the thieves. Usually go to the mountains to hunt, which greatly enriches the life of the Liu family, and even can be exchanged for a lot of money. Liu Chong is not a stingy person, every time a big prey is exchanged for money, he will give some rewards to their brothers. I usually eat it and take care of it. Seeing that they were becoming more and more sensible, he was also very happy, and finally got his old friend right.

Seeing that they were so filial to go to worship their deceased father, Liu Chong not only agreed, but also asked his wife to take two times to pay for their journey. The three Zhu brothers refused to accept it, and Liu Chong had no choice but to say that they would buy more paper candles, water and wine offerings after they went to Dangshan to pay tribute to their old friends, and they accepted it.

"Go early and return early, be careful on the road, there has been chaos outside recently, and it is not very peaceful." Liu Chong admonished.

"Thank you for your concern, our brother will go early and return early, and there will be no more delays." Zhu Asan replied respectfully.

Early the next morning, Wang, eldest brother Zhu Yu and Zhu Xiaomei saw off the three Zhu brothers at the intersection of Liujiazhuang Road, and the brothers wrapped a burden, which included some cooking cakes made by their mother Wang and Xiaomei overnight, as well as a few pieces of air-dried jerky, and a large gourd with water on their backs.

The eldest yesterday already knew that the two brothers took out the money from hunting to marry his daughter-in-law, and he was very moved by his loyal personality, and patted his brother's arm at this time and said: "Since our Aya went for more than ten years, our family has been poor. Now that we have all grown up, especially the second and third brothers, you are all sensible now, and your life is much better. You should go back to your hometown before your father's sacrifice day, buy more paper candle offerings, and have a good sacrifice. It also let the people in the township know that our three sons of Professor Aya have now grown up, who dares to despise them? “

Wang and Xiaomei also told them to be careful on the road. Until the morning sun has come out. The family is reluctant to say goodbye. The brothers borrowed a small cart from the Liu family. Pushing the skin that has been accumulated for more than half a year. Go to Songzhou.

After walking for several days along the way, I finally arrived at Songzhou, a large city in the Central Plains.

The spring is bright, the grass is green, the mountains are full of flowers, the sun is shining, and the grass grows and the warbler flies.

Songzhou is a large state in the Central Plains, belonging to Xuanwu Town, Xuanwu under the jurisdiction of Bian, Song, Bo, Ying. It has a population of nearly 900,000. And Songzhou is the largest state in Xuanwu. Because it is not far from Luoyang and is on the canal waterway, Songzhou and Bianzhou are still the shipbuilding centers of the Central Plains. Here in the north and south of the boat, business travelers gather, very lively. The two men pushed the skins into the city, and soon found a market for the skins, and it didn't take much effort to sell a cart of skins for a good price.

After selling the skins, seeing that it was still early, the two of them bought a lot of paper candle offerings for sacrificial purposes in Songzhou City. I also bought gifts for my mother, my little sister, and my eldest brother. It was already early afternoon, neither early nor late. The brothers decided that they might as well stay in Songzhou City for one night and leave tomorrow morning. I immediately found a small shop, asked for a cheap room, and put my luggage away.

The guy looked at the appearance of the two of them, and knew that Lu Dao was from outside, so he immediately smiled and said: "It's a good spring now, and it's early in the sky, why don't the two guest officers go out to play a game or two, isn't it better than staying in the store and sitting down." ”

"Oh, is there anything good to do here?" Zhu Asan asked with a smile.

"You can ask the right person, not far from the city is Baoguo Temple, why don't you go to the incense and wish for peace or something. Just watch the time and come back before the dark gates. ”

The brothers were interested, and they went out of the inn together and rushed to the Baoguo Temple on the outskirts. When they came to the ancient temple under the shadow of the cypress and pine, the three Zhu brothers found that there was some strange excitement here today, and hurriedly went up.

I saw two delicate sesame oil cars slowly driving in front of the mountain gate, dozens of brightly dressed family members, and Yahuan were waiting carefully in front and back. Zhu Asan, who was used to being wild in the countryside, didn't understand the rules of avoidance, and pulled his brother Zhu Cun to squeeze forward. Several family members immediately stopped him, "Where did you come from, do you want to find a fight?" You are not allowed to enter now, and you can only enter after my Mrs. Thorn Shi and the little lady have finished their incense. ”

Zhu Asan was full of joy when he heard it, isn't this bullying people, and he was about to have a seizure, but suddenly heard a girl who was like a silver bell scolding: "Didn't the envoy ask you not to bully people outside?" ”

This heavenly and pleasant voice suddenly reminded Zhu Asan of a poem that his father had taught him in his early years, and the dry sentence of 'My Fair Lady, Gentleman's Good Manners', which had been incomplete several times and had been hit by the board because of this, suddenly turned into a beautiful shadow, and suddenly broke into Zhu Asan with some ignorant heart.

The curtain of the incense car opened a corner, revealing a white and tender jade hand, slender fingers like green onions, and a piece of wrist like mutton fat and jade. Before he could savor the beauty of these hands, the girl had already come out. I didn't see the front, but I could only see him wearing a cotton embroidered skirt from behind, and a green shawl tied to his arm danced in the wind, fluttering like a fairy. set off the slender figure, and the long jade neck under the bun.

Zhu Asan felt distraught for a while, and secretly sighed that the first time he saw such a heartwarming woman, it was not at all comparable to those village women and village girls in Liujiazhuang, but it was a pity that such a woman could not see her face. When he was lost, he saw an unforgettable moment of ecstasy. The girl suddenly looked back and smiled at him.

The jade face is peachy, and the white Yu is flawless.

The appearance is elegant, and the willows are in the wind.

Zhu Asan was stunned on the spot, lost his soul, and was intoxicated.

When the little lady saw his stupid appearance, she couldn't help but smile with her sleeves and snuggle up to her mother to enter the mountain gate.

Seeing that the little lady gradually disappeared and disappeared into the mountain temple, Zhu Asan was stunned and depressed. The second brother Zhu Cun did not notice the change in his brother, and was still amazed by the luxurious pomp of this noble lady.

"Second brother, do you know who they are?"

Zhu Cun replied: "I heard that it seems to be the wife and daughter of Zhang Yuanjun, the assassin of Songzhou. Speaking of which, Envoy Zhang is still our fellow townsman in Dangshan. ”

Zhu Asan was silent, the brothers walked all the way back, and when they were about to reach the city gate, he suddenly turned around and sighed, "The official should be the official and the Jinwu, and the wife should be the wife Yin Lihua!" (To be continued......)
