Poisonous Peasant 'Concubine'

After the disturbance of the old Ling's family, Ling Jingxuan became famous again decisively, and various versions spread widely in the village before dark. Unlike the past, which blindly accused and abused Ling Jingxuan, this time, many people secretly They quietly talked about the arrogant and unreasonable old lady of the old Ling's family, even though Ling Qiyun asked Ling Chenglong to send Ling Jingxuan ten catties of flour, ten catties of rice, and two catties of pork to Ling Jingxuan with great fanfare. The fact that the daughter breaks into the private house and forces the filial son and daughter-in-law against him is still a matter of criticism.

On the other hand, for Ling Jingxuan, in the past, words such as monsters and sluts usually appeared with his name. In the past five years, the villagers have bullied them if they wanted to, beat and scolded them whenever they wanted, and looked at him with contempt and disdain forever. After this incident, when the villagers talked about him, there was obviously a little more fear in their eyes. Ling Jingxuan slapped his first relative and third aunt in public, and retaliated against the old Ling's family, which completely left an indelible shadow in the hearts of the villagers. , especially the weird situation where Ling Chenghu was thrown to the ground before he got close to him. Anyone who has witnessed it with their own eyes can't help but shudder every time they think of it. Even if they are more sure that he is a monster in their hearts, they dare not really Say it, even scold it.

However, these seem to have nothing to do with Ling Jingxuan. When those people made a fuss, the time that was still full became tighter. The two brothers did not cook a hundred jars of jam until almost midnight, and even Yan Shengrui’s medicine every night. I forgot, it was the two buns who gave it to them, maybe it was because Yan Shengrui protected them, the attitude of the two buns towards him has obviously changed a lot, although the big bun is still awkward, but it is no longer pointed at the wheat, and the little bun is innocent. , completely forgot what father and brother said, and dangled in front of Yan Shengrui all night, sometimes playing tricks, and sometimes asking questions curiously, the father and son became familiar with each other after a while.

"The eldest brother was abandoned by the family back then, and it took five years to get out of the haze. Now it's finally normal. I don't care who you are or what kind of noble status you have. If you dare to bully him again, I will definitely follow you." Desperate."

In the dark night, Ling Jingpeng, who stayed overnight because he was too busy making jam, was lying on the pile of straw in the corner. His black and thin but healthy body was only casually wearing a pair of white underwear, his upper body was naked, and a thin coat was casually put on In terms of stomach, he was only nine years old five years ago, and he couldn't do anything even if he wanted to. Now it's different. Due to his filial piety, the Ling family doesn't dare to say anything. If outsiders want to bully his elder brother, he will never swallow his anger again. .

"These words will come to me when you have enough ability."

Glancing at Ling Jingpeng on the other side of the room by the moonlight, Yan Chengrui said in a deep voice, he didn't mean to be angry at all, but simply told the truth. The 14-year-old Ling Jingpeng may have grown up, but in front of him, he is undoubtedly just a Little kid, his threat is like a child's play house to him, without any deterrent effect.

"I will." The black eyes that almost merged with the night shot out a firm gloomy light. Ling Jingpeng, who was lying on the pile of straw, clenched his fists tightly, not only for the elder brother, but also for his father, mother, second brother and two younger brothers. Nephew, he will become stronger for them, until one day no one can hurt and bully them anymore.

What Ling Jingpeng didn't know was that people who practice martial arts can basically recognize things at night. With the faint moonlight, all the expressions on his face fell into Yan Chengrui's exquisite eyes. For this reason, Yan Chengrui just smiled lightly , and did not express any more opinions, protecting Ling Jingxuan and the two children is his expectation, and it is also his. Even if one day he recovers his memory and thinks of all the past, he will definitely not forget his expectation at this time.

The next day, Ling Jingxuan still got up early, and after going around the yard several times as a routine, Ling Jingpeng, who also got up early, almost had breakfast ready.

"Brother, why are you running so early in the morning?" Seeing Xiao Baozi running around the yard spontaneously after getting up, Ling Jingpeng couldn't help but wonder, aren't they too hot?

"Hehe...it's just exercise. Xiaowen and the others will do Tai Chi for a while after running. If you are interested, let them teach you. We will have dinner after we come back."

Taking the cloth towel he handed over to wipe off his sweat, Ling Jingxuan walked towards the cart placed in the yard while talking, on which four large wooden barrels had already been placed.

"No, bro, I'll go with you."

Afraid that he couldn't move him alone, Ling Jingpeng took the initiative to lean over, but Ling Jingxuan paused, turned around and said with a smile: "I can do it by myself, if you are too free, you can help Jinghan prepare the medicine and send it over. .”

He didn't want him to find out about the Crescent Lake. It had nothing to do with whether he trusted him or not. He simply thought it was unnecessary. If he insisted on saying it, the reason was the same as that he didn't tell Xiao Baozi and them. Some things should be carried by him alone. , there is no need to implicate others.

"That's fine, don't grab too much, isn't someone going to come to the house to collect jam today? It won't be good if neither of us is here"

Ling Jingpeng heard the words and didn't insist anymore. The eldest brother is important, and the second brother is equally important. He also hopes that the illness of the second brother can be cured soon.

"Understood, Xiaowen, don't run for too long, you still have to punch later."

Ling Jingxuan, who was pulling the wooden cart out, happened to see two little buns running out of the corner, and behind them were two wolf cubs who were usually tied in the backyard. Not surprisingly, the wolf cubs gritted their teeth when they saw him Grinning and howling, wishing to pounce on him and kill him, he couldn't help but blush every time, when will these two cubs forget that he killed the she-wolf?

"Hey, Dad, you're going to catch fish again, don't go too deep."

"Daddy!"

The big bun was as nagging as ever, just like a little old man, the wound on his face had healed a lot under the effect of the medicine Ling Jingxuan prepared and the crescent spring water, while the little bun happily rushed over to hug his leg, the two buns They all looked at the two small white front teeth, and their identical faces were already wet with sweat due to long-term exercise, but the smiles on them were not at all tired. After running for a few days, they gradually got used to and fell in love with it. Kind of morning exercise.

"Well, the swelling on the face has subsided, remember to apply medicine after running."

Rubbing the little bun's head, and touching the big bun's red and swollen cheeks, Feng Qing pulled up the cart again.

The two buns nodded obediently at the same time, watching their father disappear before starting to run again, the two wolf cubs followed beside them as if having fun, the two of them and the two dogs circled the outside of the yard facing the bright morning sun Running around tirelessly, their clothes were soaked in sweat, but they couldn't soak their will, but instead strengthened their bodies a little bit.

Yesterday Ling Qiyun didn't go to the private school not far from home after bringing the old lady back to work together. He just sent the head of the house, Sun Ling Jinghong, to inform the children to go home. Let the eldest son Ling Chengcai send the old lady back to her natal home. Although the old lady was not really sent back to her natal home under the persuasion of the children and grandchildren, as Ling Chenglong and the others expected, the matter of their separation and living alone ended without a problem. .

When the couple returned to the house they lived in, Ling Wang couldn't help wiping away tears. Knowing that the old man had dug a trap and waited for them to jump by themselves, they still had no choice but to jump. Suddenly, there was not even the slightest punishment. In the past, they always felt that the old lady was biased, and the old man was at most indifferent and inactive. Now it seems that the old man's heart is also biased.

"Mother, people's hearts are inherently biased. We should get used to it after so many years. Let's just forget about it. If my illness can really be cured, I can take the imperial examination. As long as I get the honor, From now on, no one in this family will dare to bully us casually.”

In the end, it was Ling Jinghan who comforted her with his words, filial piety was like a mountain on their heads, what else could they do besides thinking this way?Who told them that it was their own parents who bullied them.

"Jing Peng is back, get ready, it's time for breakfast, put down your things and come over to eat."

When Ling Jingpeng returned to Lao Ling's house with two medicine jars, the uncle Ling Li, who had disappeared all day yesterday, greeted him warmly as always, as if she didn't know what happened yesterday.

This Ling Li is the old lady's biological niece, she always pleases the old lady, she also behaves like a sister-in-law in generosity and virtuousness, and is even more gentle and loving in front of the juniors, but Ling Jingpeng didn't like him when she was young It's not that he is smarter than anyone else and can see the true face under that loving face, but that once he overheard, the uncle complained to the uncle that their second wife spent too much money on a doomed person Since then, he hasn't gotten close to her much.

"Good morning, auntie." Without being affected by her enthusiasm, Ling Jingpeng nodded indiscriminately, and walked into the house where they lived, carrying the medicine jar sullenly.

"Bah, what is it, sister-in-law, don't pay attention to him, isn't he just a little bastard who eats for nothing, shameless!"

Behind him, Ling Chenghua's disgust and insults could clearly be heard in his ears, and Ling Jingpeng closed the door indifferently, which also indirectly cut off those annoying conversations outside.

"Jing Peng is back, it's time to go fishing at Jing Xuan's house, why are you running back?"

Seeing her son, Ling Wang, who didn't get up early to do housework for the first time because of anger, quickly put down the work of cleaning the table and went up to meet him. Ling Chenglong, who was sitting cross-legged, also looked at him strangely.

"Brother asked me to bring the medicine for the second brother. Second brother, how did you feel after taking the medicine prescribed by the elder brother yesterday? Are you feeling better?"

Lifting the medicine jar in his hand, Ling Jingpeng poured two bowls and sent them to Ling Jinghan who was lying on the bed, not forgetting to care about his condition.

"It's not so fast, but the number of coughs was much less last night, and I didn't cough much when I woke up this morning. It should have an effect."

Holding up his body to take the medicine bowl, Ling Jinghan said with a smile, compared to his parents and brothers, he is used to not having too much hope for his illness, lest he will suffer too much in the future.

"It will definitely work. You don't know. Eldest brother's medical skills are very good. He prescribed the plague prevention medicine we drank yesterday, and earned ten taels of silver because of it. Second brother, you can recuperate with peace of mind. I believe it." Brother will definitely cure you." Thinking of what Ling Wen said, Ling Jingpeng leaned forward and sat beside the bed and said excitedly, no one except them knows about this matter.

"What? Didn't he just buy it when there was a plague? Why did it become his prescription again?"

When Ling Wang heard this, he walked over with Ling Chenglong. Even Ling Jinghan, who was drinking medicine, couldn't help but put down the medicine bowl. Plague is not a common cold disease. Every time a plague breaks out, even those well-known doctors are helpless. Ling Jingxuan Why can preventive medicine be prescribed?Are his medical skills really that good?

"I don't know exactly what's going on. I heard from Xiaowen that the eldest brother's medical skills are really good, and the second brother's illness will definitely be cured. When the second brother recovers, he may be able to participate in this year's children's competition." Let’s try it, next spring, if a scholar comes back, then a scholar from Qiu Wei, and a Jinshi from Chun Wei will become an official, and our good days will come.”

The more Ling Jingpeng thinks about it, the more beautiful it becomes. It seems that the picture of his second brother's high school has appeared in front of his eyes. Along with it, Ling Chenglong and his wife also instantly forgot the previous doubts and smiled one after another.

"It's just what you think! Do you think the imperial examination is so good? Didn't you see that my grandfather didn't make any progress after taking the exam for so many years?"

Ling Jinghan was still sensible, poking his head helplessly laughed, and indirectly punctured his sweet dream, Ling Jingpeng wrinkled his nose and muttered unhappily: "If he can't hit it, it doesn't mean you won't hit it either, maybe you will hit it." ?”

Apart from the elder brother, he admires the second elder brother the most. Maybe it's because he spends too much time in bed. His knowledge is the best in the family, even better than the old man, but? ?His dilapidated body prevented him from taking the imperial examination.

"Okay, that's all for the future. Regarding the matter of the parents' proposal to separate the family yesterday, did the elder brother say anything?"

Not wanting to argue with him on this matter, Ling Jinghan changed the subject calmly. Others don't know, so he doesn't know?To say that the person in this family who wants to separate the family the most is his younger brother. As early as when the elder brother was kicked out and they were only nine years old, he could see that he had been thinking about dividing the family.

"No, brother just said that the opportunity like yesterday is not enough, let us wait."

Speaking of this topic, Ling Jingpeng's shoulders slumped, and he couldn't help feeling disappointed, what a great opportunity yesterday, why wasn't it enough?

Ling Chenglong and his wife are also troubled by this matter. Some things, when they are not made clear, everyone makes peace, pretends to be stupid, and they can barely live. Once they are made clear, the future life will be even more difficult. .

"Well, parents, you don't have to worry too much. I think the eldest brother is right. The opportunity like yesterday is really not enough. If the master really promised us to split up and live alone, wouldn't it be fulfilled? Grandma bullied her son and daughter-in-law by relying on her status as an elder." The fact of the son? It is not good for the reputation of the Ling family. It is absolutely impossible for the master to agree. You have seen the actions of the master yesterday. After all, he and the grandmother are old couples for decades, and they are your relatives again. Father and mother, you can't really watch the milk being sent back to your mother's house, right? So even if the elder brother doesn't let go, it will still develop in this direction. Let's just listen to the elder brother and wait a little longer, maybe there will be a bigger opportunity It will come soon."

After touching his chin in silence for a moment, Ling Jinghan looked up at his parents who were obviously lost and worried. He always felt that his eldest brother seemed to have a plan, but he just didn't tell them.

"Hey, since you said the same thing, then parents can wait a little longer, Jinghan, hurry up and drink the medicine, now parents don't want anything, just hope that your illness will be cured, as long as you three brothers are healthy and healthy , father and mother are willing to spend their whole lives stuck here."

Ling Chenglong and his wife looked at each other, and both sighed helplessly, what else could they do except wait?You can't force your parents to separate with a knife, right?They really can't do that kind of unfilial thing.

"Well, I also listened to the elder brother and the second brother." Although he still couldn't let go, after Ling Jinghan's explanation, Ling Jingpeng finally felt relieved, and when he left with the medicine jar, it was almost half an hour later. .
