The Founding of the Red Chamber

The unlucky brothers both defected, and the hot-blooded mistress encountered difficulties again

Situ San really did not expect that the two brothers, Fa Cai and You Fu, would come to Situ Village in the middle of the night to join him.

Speaking of defecting, it is really a blessing to make a fortune and a blessing.Even on this cold spring day in February, they couldn't stop the faint sour smell from their bodies, and their faces. If it hadn't been for Blessed to introduce himself, Situ San would have thought it was some beggar begging along the village.

However, generally speaking, even beggars go to bed in the middle of the night.

Those who don't sleep at night are nocturnal thieves except night wandering gods.

We have to start from the beginning.

Today, Uncle Yan brings his adopted son Liu Zhigao to help Situ San, earning a good income, and he seldom goes hunting in the mountains.However, Uncle Yan is a hunter after all, he is still setting traps on the mountain, and he will go to see it in a few days, and if there are prey in the trap, he will pick them up and not sell them, he has the right to add food to the family.

One day, two wild boars, one big and one small, fell into the trap dug by Uncle Yan. They happened to be carried back by Uncle Yan, Liu Zhigao and his son who went to check on the mountain, and gave a small wild boar to Situsan's family directly.Uncle Yan was very good at cooking, he personally roasted wild boar meat, and ordered Liu Zhigao to invite Situ San to come to his house for a drink.

Situ Si also followed with a stern face. Situ San has been displeased with Situ Si for the past two days.Without him, Situ San has money, and after a year, he is still going to send Situ Si to study with a scholar, so that he can learn more.

At the beginning, Situ Sanyi mentioned going to the scholar's house to pay off in person, but Situ Si was a little unhappy and wanted to hand it over by himself.As a very responsible elder brother, Situ San has won a complete victory in the arena with Boss Hu, and the herb business is getting better day by day. Situ San is also considered a minor figure in Situ Village.With a leisurely heart, I thought about it, and every year I spent this money to send my younger brother to study, and I always asked the scholar, how is my younger brother's study?

Situ San just wanted to hold a parent-teacher meeting, but he didn't necessarily have to go to the scholar's house.As a result, Situ Si had a guilty conscience on his face.Who is Situ San, who has been selling medicinal herbs for a year now, who can kill Boss Hu without fear of tigers, how can he not see the uneasiness on Situ Si's face.It was a matter of whether or not to go, but because of Situ Si's complexion, Situ San had to go.

After this trip, after listening to the scholar, Situ San knew that last year Situ Si often skipped classes for no reason.Situ San was almost dizzy with anger, and when his temper came up, Situ San didn't ask anything, and directly beat Situ Si at the scholar's house to cry his father and mother.

A scholar is a gentleman, so I can't get used to it.The point is, seeing Situ San's ruthlessness, Xiucai thought about it, beat his younger brother back to his own home, what should he do if someone is killed in his home?

So, Xiucai tried to stop him with good intentions, but Situ San didn't notice that Xiucai dragged his small body to persuade the fight, and when he missed, he pushed Xiucai somersault.Now that it was all right, Xiucai felt insulted by the uneducated small merchants, and directly persuaded Situ Si to leave, and he would not accept any amount of money.

After Situ San had finished his good words, the scholar was dragged in. Situ San had no choice but to take the beaten Situ Si back home.

Situ Si was beaten so hard that his butt was swollen from his brother's kick, and he also wiped away two tears hard at that time.However, at the thought of not having to go to school anymore, Situ Si felt that it was worth the beating.Situ Si also made a confession form for several days, and now he just recovered alive and kicking.

Situ San went to drink at Uncle Yan's house, but Situ Si begged Bai Lai to follow him.

These few days, Situ San still doesn't pay much attention to Situ Si.Situ Si chatted and laughed heartlessly with Liu Zhigao, but Situ San's heart suddenly moved, and he said, "Little Si is useless. Zhigao, why don't you go and study with a scholar for a few years?" He planned to cultivate Liu Zhigao in addition up.

Liu Zhigao choked on the wine after taking a sip of wine, almost choking to death.Uncle Yan scolded, "Look at this prospect!" and asked Situ San, "If you want to study, you will earn a lot of money a year. This kid is growing up too. I thought, save some more, and marry him a wife." .”

Situ Sandao said, "I'll pay Zhigao some money while I'm free now, and tell him to study."

Liu Zhizhu still had the chopsticks in his hands, and with his hands waving, he almost flew the chopsticks up to the roof, and hurriedly said, "No, no, I'm not going. I don't want to get sick from exhaustion." See Situ San , the adoptive father stared at him with four eyes, Liu Zhigao shrank his neck, and muttered, "Yes, you can see how thin the scholar in our village is, like a handful of firewood. I heard from Xiaosi that the scholar studied Read it, the hair on my head fell off."

Uncle Yan was angry, "Who do you see hair falling out and making noise?"I don't know what is good or bad!Uncle Yan simply pushed Liu Zhigao out, "The wine is cold, boil some water to warm the wine. Then look at the elbow stewing in the pot, it's rotten."

Liu Zhigao patted Situ Si's legs under the table, and the two of them simply went out to eat by the hot pot of meat, so as not to be scolded.

Coming out of Uncle Yan's house, Situ San was a little overwhelmed, and Situ Si carefully carried a paper lantern to light his brother's way.When the general arrived home, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from behind the tree, Situ Da Shuang roared and kicked over.

As soon as the man said the word "Third Brother", Situ Si pushed him to the ground.

"Third Brother, I am Blessed." Blessed shouted these words in a low voice as he pressed his arms backwards on the cold ground at night.

Situ San was slightly startled, and said, "Xiao Si, help him up."

At this time, the lantern had rolled to the ground and went out.

Fortunately, today is the fifteenth day, and the moon is shining brightly in the sky, reflecting the moonlight, Situ San can barely see some blessings on that muddy face.

Situ San knew about the escape from Hu's house from Malu, who was working in the county government, but Situ San didn't expect that the two brothers had not left Fengrao County, but found his home. Come.

"Third brother, I am blessed." Youfu breathed heavily, coughed twice, raised his head, his eyes were amazingly bright, and said, "Third brother, do you still remember me?"

Situ San asked, "Didn't you run away?"

Blessed said, "There is no way to guide us, we are escaped slaves, we can't go home."

Situ San thought for a while, and said, "Little Si, you go home first, don't tell mother anything when you get back. Wash and sleep first, just say that I'm resting at Uncle Yan's house."

Situ Si was worried about his brother, and said, "Brother and I will take him to Uncle Yan's house, and then go home."

Situ San asked Blessed, "Where's your brother?"

Youfu kept coughing, but he didn't dare to make a sound to attract others' attention, so he suppressed his voice hard in his throat, breathing heavily like a bellows being pulled, and said, "I don't know if I can find third brother, I Brother is waiting for me in the bamboo forest at the east entrance of the village."

There are Zhang Shi and Situ Qing in the family. They are both honest people, timid, and can't keep things in their hearts. Situ San dare not bring You Blessing home.What's more, Youfu suddenly came to him, good or bad luck is unpredictable.What Situ San was thinking in his heart, no one knew.

When he arrived at Uncle Yan's place, Situ San handed the blessing to Uncle Yan, briefly told Uncle Yan about the matter, and said, "His brother is still at the entrance of the village when he got rich. Our mother is in a hurry."

Fortunately, he said, "I will pick up my brother with my third brother."

Situ San smiled, and pressed Blessed's hand, "Okay, don't show your face. I'm fine with it alone. If you two, it's too conspicuous. Don't let other people in the village see it."

When he said this, Youfu showed gratitude, and said, "Big Brother Third." Then he said, "Brother Third, you go to the bamboo forest and learn how to call a toad first three times, then nine times, and then six times. I can come out."

Situ San nodded and took Situ Si and Liu Zhigao out together.Situ Si wanted to go home, holding a heavy and lighted paper lantern in his hand, and said, "Brother, the black lamp is blind, ask Brother Zhigao to carry this lantern."

Situ San scolded, "Stupid you, we go to the entrance of the village to pick up people, what kind of lanterns are we carrying? I just think others can't see it."

Situ Si also turned his head and smiled, "Yes." Then he said, "Brother, then you and Brother Zhigao should be careful on your feet." Then he went back by himself with the lantern.

Situ San and Liu Zhigao walked towards the entrance of the village, but after walking for a while, Situ San grabbed Liu Zhigao and said, "Let's not go to the entrance of the village, but go back to your house to have a look?"

Liu Zhigao has always been smart, so he immediately understood, "Third Brother, is he afraid that the kid will be dishonest?"

Situ San said in a low voice, "He used to be a domestic slave surnamed Hu, but now he escaped. He is considered a fugitive slave. If he is caught back, he will be beaten to death. Be careful, there is no big mistake, go back and have a look."

The two of them slipped back quietly again, and at the base of the wall they heard Uncle Yan asking for blessings, sometimes threatening with fists and kicks, Situ San was relieved when he saw that Uncle Yan understood what he meant and was so experienced.After giving Liu Zhigao a wink, the two quietly went to the east entrance of the village.

This time, Liu Zhigao learned to be clever.

There is a dense bamboo forest at the east entrance of the village, Liu Zhigao said in a low voice, "Third brother, you wait here first, I'll go and meet Fa Cai. If that kid is dishonest, we both have someone to take care of."

Situ San knew Liu Zhigao's good intentions, but he stopped Liu Zhigao, "Fat Cai doesn't recognize you, their brothers are after me. You wait here for me, if there is anything, I will call you loudly."

Think about it, this is also true.Liu Zhigao pulled out a short knife from his waist and handed it to Situ San.Situ San was not polite either, he took the knife and went to the bamboo forest to meet Fa Cai.

My younger brother went there for a long time, but I don't know if it was because of the wait, Fa Cai felt that the time passed very slowly and was particularly difficult.Now it's the climax of the moon, and I don't see my younger brother coming back, so I'm in a hurry to get rich.But he was worried about being found out, so he hid in the bamboo forest. In fact, he felt like a cat's paws were scratching in his heart.

Situ San croaked like a toad, and after a while, no one came out.Situ San yelled again, and when he heard the sound behind him, Situ San turned around and saw a dark figure.

"Where's my brother?" Fa Cai didn't see his brother and asked anxiously.

Hearing the urgency in Fa Cai's voice, Situ San had some confidence in his heart, he didn't answer, but instead asked, "What do you think?"

Although it is the sky in November, it is night after all, and the moon cannot be used as a big [-]-watt light bulb.In the bamboo forest, bamboo shadows whirled.Fa Cai's heart was pounding, and after watching for a long time, he was sure that the person in front of him was Situ San.

Fa Cai sighed, and said, "Alright. It's better for our brother to die at your hands than at the hands of Hu."

Situ San brought Fa Cai back to Uncle Yan's house. You Fu had already washed his face, and was gnawing on an elbow with his mouth full of grease.As soon as he saw his brother, You Fu immediately rushed forward, stuffed half of his elbow into his hand, and said, "Brother, eat first."

When Fa Cai saw his younger brother standing in front of him with his elbows in his hands, he suddenly felt lighter, and he didn't think about anything, and he didn't have any thoughts. After receiving the fragrant elbows, he just buried his head in eating.

Youfu smirked twice, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, turned to pick up the broth in the basin, and drank it in big gulps.

Situ San looked at the two brothers who were obviously starved to death, and said to himself, this Hu man doesn't know how to name his servants, one is blessed and the other is rich, look at the appearance of this starved ghost reincarnated, there is nothing wrong with it Blessing and wealth, let Situ San say, it should be called bad luck.

In fact, many years later, Situ San felt that if he had been older back then, maybe he would not have taken in these two brothers.Back then, he was known for his passion and loyalty, and that was because, back then, he was still young.
