In this era, there is no such thing as a seven-day week. Naturally, students do not have five days of classes and two days of rest like modern students.

The school holidays in the county seem to be a little different. Li Silang and Li Yu have ten days off, with nine days of classes and one day off, while Li Sanlang has monthly holidays and one day off per month.

There was only one day off, and few people were allowed to return to the village during this time.

Li Silang usually sees his father and mother every once in a while, but now it is late September or early September, and he has not seen them for a month. When he was sleeping at night, he thought about it and realized that Li Silang was so aggrieved that he could no longer bear it. , hugging the quilt and crying secretly.

He and Yulang get up early every day and go to the academy after breakfast. They not only have to learn reading, writing, listening and speaking, but also practice physical fitness. Moreover, the county school teaches more subjects than the village school. They don't dare to desert at all. Studying every day makes me dizzy, for fear of failing to learn well.

It was hard to relax after returning home. He wanted to find someone to talk to, but sometimes the third brother came back late. Several times he came back before the curfew. He had to go to class the next day, so he and the third brother couldn't say a few words. As for Brother Ji, who was busy with things in the fields in the painting, it was normal for him not to see the talent. As a result, the only person who got along and talked with him every day was Li Yu.

Li Yu seems to be very used to this kind of life. But he can’t! In the past, the house was always lively, and his father and mother were always greeting him...

He misses his grandma so much...

Belated longing hit him in the dark night. Li Silang opened his eyes, flattened his mouth and wanted to cry again.

Li Yu on the other end was awakened by the sound of slapping. He looked towards the bedside, and the sound seemed to be coming from the bedside.

When Li Yu opened his eyes, he suddenly thought, "It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge." Li Silang, you also have today!

"Silang? Are you also a crybaby? Do you secretly cry when you can't sleep at night?" Li Yu happily crawled to Li Silang and teased him. Seeing that Shiro didn't refute, he seemed to cry even harder, and his own nose also became sore. .

He was a person who shed tears easily, but he didn't expect to make anyone laugh, so he cried with Li Silang.

After making people cry, Li Silang was embarrassed to cry again, so he had to comfort Li Yu: "I miss my father and mother, why are you crying..."

Li Yu didn't know why he was crying, but he couldn't stop the tears in his eyes anyway. He sobbed and said, "Don't I miss my father and mother too?"

"Hey, have you met your grandma? Do you remember your daddy?" The "father" Li Silang mentioned was the person who brought Li Yu back. After all, no one knew who his biological parents were.

Li Yu cried even harder when asked about her sadness. "I don't remember...but I can't even think about it...?" Neither his biological parents nor his father who brought him back to Li Village left any impression in his mind.

The feeling of longing could not find an exact object to attach to. Whenever Li Yu needed to miss him, he could only murmur the words "father and mother", as if this way he could express his emotions to them, but this would only Make him feel even more pitiable.

When Li Silang saw something bad, his friend's mood became even lower. "If you grow up one day, will you look for your biological parents?"

Li Yu wiped her tears and muttered in the dark: "Have you ever thought about why my father brought me back? My father is a soldier on the battlefield. Does he bring me back, does it mean that my biological parents have already passed away?" died?"

Hearing these words, Li Silang was stunned. He patted his friend's shoulder in the dark: "Yu Lang, maybe that's not the case? Maybe they accidentally lost you when they were just escaping from the war. Your father didn't leave you anything." Any clues?"

In the darkness, Li Yu's head moved, shaking his head: "My father just came back from the battlefield. He died of long-term injuries not long after. He only left a letter from me asking Uncle Wei to raise me until he died." I finished elementary school..."

"Alas..." Li Silang patted him on the shoulder again: "There are no clues. I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to find your biological parents..."

"It's okay. It's been like this for so many years." He said this as if he had been alive for a long time.

When talking about his parents, Li Yu's sadness had stopped. He got out of bed to retrieve a wet towel and wiped his face clean with Li Silang: "I am satisfied to be able to live the life I have now."

"Then do you still remember your father's name?"

Li Yu didn't speak. After putting down the towel, he lay down silently on the bed side by side with Li Silang. He didn't answer Li Silang, but thought for a while and couldn't help but recall the past.

Uncle Wei knew that he was not his father's biological child. When his father left, Uncle Wei had no children of his own. At that time, Uncle Wei and Aunt Wei still treated him kindly until he was three years old and Uncle Wei's child was born. Everything went wrong. They began not to recognize him as a child of the Li family and treated him like an outsider.

They spent the pension left by his father, both in disguise and in disguise, and their harsh punishment on him became more and more excessive as he got older. In order to silence the villagers, they finally sent him to a village school when he was seven years old, but within half a year , because bandits hijacked the village school, he was kicked out of his house.

Li Silang waited for a while, but did not wait for Li Yu's answer, so he could only fall asleep deeply.

Li Dazhi.

Li Yu recited silently in his heart and replied softly: "Silang, I remember my father's name." Because his father's mother-in-law favored Uncle Wei, everyone in the village called his father "Li Dayu". Over time, people gradually forgot about his father. The name on my father’s household registration is Li Dazhi.

The only response he received was Shiro's gibbering.

The next day, Li Sanlang was shocked when he saw their swollen eyes: "You cried last night? Why?"

I feel ashamed when I think about it during the day. Why did I feel so anxious to cry last night?

Li Silang hesitated and refused to say anything. Li Yu usually took the initiative to explain, but today he did not speak. Li Sanlang could only guess: "Is it possible that someone in the academy bullied you?"

"No!! Oh, third brother, don't ask anymore! Make a fire quickly, otherwise it will be too late to make porridge later!!" Li Silang didn't want to say anything, so Li Sanlang didn't ask any more questions.

Thinking about Shiro's temperament, he never suffers a loss, and there are so many people at home who pamper him. If he suffers a loss, he will definitely come back to them to support him.

So it’s not that outsiders make him cry, it’s because he wants to cry?

Li Sanlang suppressed his laughter: "Brother Ji said that the second brother is coming today. If he catches you and knows that you are secretly crying under the quilt in the middle of the night, he will definitely laugh at you."

The truth behind the secret crying was seen by the third brother, and the child became angry and said, "I won't pay attention to you anymore today!! Don't talk to me!!"

There was a scene of chicken and dog jumping in the yard early in the morning. Li Silang really ignored his brother. After eating breakfast, he filled the puppy's rice bowl with food and then the two of them went out to the academy.

When the two puppies saw the food, they quickly jumped into the rice bowl and ate with their heads immersed in the bowl.

Li Sanlang couldn't stop laughing. He greeted Ji Qingyue who had just woken up and then chased him out.

After Li Erlang received the letter, he came to the county early on the fifth day by donkey cart. Along with him were Li Aniang and Li Jinniang. They had something to discuss with Ji Qingyue and stopped by the county market to buy some things.

Several people were in a good mood.

Now the family is busy harvesting fruits. With the share of garlic, the money from selling fruits has become small money in Li Aniang’s eyes. After the autumn harvest is over, she no longer has to work to death. Looking at the daily plan for selling fruits Just come.

Not long ago, Manager Zhang, who collected mountain goods, brought news and Hu Suan's share.

A full thirty taels, which is only 10%. I don’t know where the owner sold the garlic to such a high price. If garlic is put into a dish and cooked, how many times can the price of this dish be increased?

After expanding garlic planting and harvesting, you can still make money even if the price of garlic decreases!

Li Aniang couldn't help but sigh, is it really so easy to make money by growing up?

When I came to the county this time, I not only brought new clothes for Ji Qingyue, but also pickles and bacon from home.

Carrying large and small bags, they opened the door and walked into Ji Qingyue's house. Ji Qingyue heard Li Aniang's voice and shouted in the bedroom: "Is it Erlang?"

"It's me, Yue Lang, and A Niang and Jin Niang are here too!"

Ji Qingyue came out of the painting and saw large and small bags piled on the ground in the yard, "Why did Auntie bring so many things? Now Saburo and Shiro are in a good mood when they come back!"

Aniang Li was afraid that Ji Qingyue would misunderstand: "I didn't bring them for them, I brought them for you. The two newly cut robes are both in your size!"

Now that Ji Qingyue has enough clothes, it is hard to imagine that he was still surviving in the wilderness on this day last year.

Li Aniang mysteriously whispered to Ji Qingyue: "The cotton thread you mentioned earlier, Yue Lang, after Erlang Aweng modified the loom, we tried to weave the cotton thread into cloth. Unexpectedly, the texture of the cloth weaved felt so... So soft and comfortable, who would have thought that the flowers used for viewing in noble families could have such uses!!"

As she said that, Aniang Li couldn't wait to take out the results of the past few days from her bag. The fabric was not long enough to make a long-sleeved robe, so she cut him a piece based on the T-shirt she remembered Ji Qingyue had worn. Pure cotton T-shirt.

Ji Qingyue was stunned when he saw the cotton T-shirt.

Aunt Li was a little embarrassed: "I have never asked you what kind of clothes you like before. I just saw you wearing this style of clothes a few times, and I think you like it. Auntie has nothing to thank you for, I can only make something you like. I will give you something in return.”

Ji Qingyue was moved again.

He is not an easily moved person, but this family member made him cry again and again.

"Thank you, aunt! I really like it!!" Ji Qingyue took the clothes. Although the hand-woven fabric was not as delicate as machine-woven fabric, it was no less soft.

Seeing Ji Qingyue's joyful expression, Aniang Li smiled: "Just like it! I know you have some business to do with Erlang, so you two can go, Jinniang and I will tidy up at home, and you can just come back for dinner."

Unexpectedly, Li Jinniang held her brother's arm, but looked at Ji Qingyue eagerly, begging clearly: "Aniang, I want to go with the second brother and Brother Ji."

Li Aniang did not object in a hurry and looked at Ji Qingyue.

Li Jinniang has always been a girl with a rather unremarkable personality. She is quiet, obedient and honest, and at the same time she is smart and quick to read. Whatever she wants to express, she must think about it before she says it.

Ji Qingyue had no objection. He had always advocated the idea of ​​going out to see more, and immediately nodded in agreement to Li Jinniang's request.

Li Jinniang was still a child and it was rare for her to go out. She also wanted to go out with her brother.

The three of them went out and went straight to Tai'an Building. On the way, Ji Qingyue briefly mentioned Zhuangzi's affairs, which made Li Erlang and Li Jinniang marvel.

Sure enough, it's Yue Lang/Brother Ji! ! Not long after I settled in the county, I got a village! Really amazing!

Shopkeeper Qin had been waiting for a long time. He saw two people following Ji Qingyue and motioned to Ji Qingyue to introduce them.

"This is Shopkeeper Qin of Tai'an Building." Ji Qingyue said, and then introduced the brother and sister to Shopkeeper Qin.

After some pleasantries, they went straight to the county government to transfer the property. Shopkeeper Qin had already taken care of it. The property transfer process was very smooth. Ji Qingyue got the second land deed after a while.

Shopkeeper Qin clasped his fists in congratulations: "The tenants are all waiting in the village. Ji Langjun and I will go and have a look?"

Of course.

The four of them got on the carriage of Tai'an Tower, drove eastward out of the city gate, and rushed to Zhuangzi outside the city.

This was the first time for the three of them to leave the city from the East Gate. Ji Qingyue looked out of the car window with excitement.

Just separated by a county town, the gap between the east and west can be distinguished with the naked eye.

The east side is obviously more lively. The autumn harvest has passed, and there are still many farmers working in the fields.

The carriage drove quickly for about a quarter of an hour, detouring from the official road onto the narrowed dirt road. After walking for a while, it finally arrived at its destination - a brick-walled house in a large farmland.

There was a blue brick house standing on the vast land. It was said that this was how courtyard houses were built here. Suddenly a house appeared in the bare field. Just like Li Erlang's house, there were no neighboring houses within a certain distance.

It was very consistent with Ji Qingyue's wish not to be disturbed.

Shopkeeper Qin asked the waiter to open the courtyard door, and when he pushed the door open, he saw a standard three-entry courtyard. Although it is only a three-in-one courtyard, each courtyard is very large and can dry a lot of food. Just one side room can match the entire house where he lives now.

Connected to the gate is the first entrance courtyard. After passing through the screen door to the outer courtyard, there is a row of inverted rooms for servants to live. The second entrance courtyard in the middle is square, including the main house and two wing rooms, the east and west wing rooms and a vast The drying yard, the gate between the two yards is the gate of the second courtyard, which is the famous pendant flower gate. Go through the ear door on the right and enter the backyard. A row of back rooms are all huge warehouses. In the past, It was used to temporarily store the harvested grain, but now it is empty.

Shopkeeper Qin had already told his servants to clean the house in advance, provide daily necessities and boilers, and fill the water tank with water, just waiting for Ji Qingyue to move in.

Ji Qingyue felt the sincerity of Shopkeeper Qin, but it was a pity that he could not live here forever, it was too empty, and he was already remote and desolate enough in the painting, but when he came out, the surroundings would still look deserted.

Not suitable for permanent residence, but a good place for experiments!
