The poor man grows watermelon

[The attitude of the villagers]

Su Ye put a heavy cloth bag on the bed - this was the salary and reward given by Cao Xiancheng today.

Yu Feng was holding on to the door frame, bending over to change his shoes - he was afraid that the new shoes would get dirty and worn out, so he had to take them off and put on the original straw sandals every time he went home.

Su Ye said abruptly, "I won't go to the county government office tomorrow."

Yu Feng was taken aback, walked to the bed with his shoes on, and asked worriedly, "Is Xiaoyezi uncomfortable?"

Knowing that he would be wrong, Su Ye shook his head and explained, "I mean, I won't go there in the future, and the clerical work ends here."

"Didn't you say you're going to Niangen?" Yu Feng was still a little worried, and asked tentatively, "But...why did you suffer?"

"No." Su Ye paused, patted the seat beside her, "Sit down first."

Yu Feng sat down as he said, keeping his gaze on Su Ye's face.

Su Ye looked serious, and Yu Feng couldn't help becoming nervous, "Xiao Yezi, what's wrong with you?"

Su Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and said frankly: "Yu Feng, did I tell you before that I was kicked out by my family?"

Yu Feng nodded blankly.

A trace of guilt flashed across Su Ye's slightly drooping eyes, "I'm sorry, I lied to you..."

Before Su Ye could finish speaking, Yu Feng quickly responded, "It's okay, Xiao Yezi, you don't have to apologize."

Su Ye met his gaze and said seriously: "I ran away from home, and now that family is looking for me, I'm afraid I can't stay here any longer."

When Yu Feng heard this, he was completely stunned, with obvious fear in his tone, "Xiao Yezi, where are you going if you're not here?"

Su Ye's complexion was a little bad, and he said in a deep voice, "I don't know."

"Then stay here!" Yu Feng grabbed Su Ye's hand and said quickly, "Since there is nowhere to go, don't leave."

Su Ye pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, but did not withdraw her hand, "Yu Feng, thank you for taking me in during my most difficult time. Now that I am forced to do nothing, this kindness can only be repaid later."

Yu Feng tightened his fingers, frowned and asked, "Why do you have to leave? Is your family very powerful?"

"Average, better than the county magistrate."

"Worse than the general?"

Su Ye shook his head calmly, and said solemnly: "The Su family only has titles, but no real power."

Yu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, but the other half was not completely relieved. Su Ye added: "The other side is a minister with meritorious service, probably...very powerful."

Mentioning the betrothed person, Su Ye suddenly realized that Huo Da's previous purpose of coming to Wannian County was probably to find his original body - Su Yelan.

In fact, the two met each other when they were young, and even studied with the same teacher, but now each has changed. In addition, Su Ye's face was covered with dust and he was dressed in common clothes, so it's not surprising that the other party didn't recognize him. .

Getting caught back was the second thing, Su Ye didn't want to hurt Yu Feng and the villagers.

Yu Feng obviously didn't think so, he calmed down quickly, and said firmly, "Don't be afraid, little page, you stay in the village well, and I won't let anyone take you away!"

Su Ye sighed, and said bluntly: "Yu Feng, even if you don't mind, what about the people in the village? The other party has power and power, if they are investigated..."

Yu Feng stood up abruptly, "I'll go and tell them right away, if they don't agree, I, I will take you away!"

Su Ye was a little surprised, he really didn't expect Yu Fengfeng to say such a thing.He subconsciously pulled Yu Feng's sleeve, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Don't worry Xiao Yezi, the aunts and aunts in Yujia Village have watched me grow up, and they will never betray you no matter what." Yu Feng promised solemnly.

Su Ye frowned slightly, a little depressed - he didn't think so.

Yu Feng sensed Xiao Shuang'er's emotions, and quickly softened his tone, "Xiao Yezi, I'm sorry, I—"

Su Ye shook her head, interrupted him, her voice was cold, "It's too late, even if I want to talk, I'll wait until tomorrow."

Yu Feng knew he had said something wrong, how could he dare to refute?I hurriedly prepared dinner, boiled water and made my bed.

That night, the north wind howled for most of the night, and it was very cold in the thatched shed. Although she was covered with a thick silk quilt and had a big stove beside her, Su Ye never fell asleep.

He thought a lot.

To be honest, the days had just passed, and he didn't want to leave Yujia Village.

Where can he go after leaving Yujia Village?This is not a modern place where you can buy a house if you have money.The houses in the village have been passed down from generation to generation, and they will not be sold easily if there is no major event of family destruction.

What's more, there is no guarantee, and no village will easily accept a person of unknown origin.

If Su Ye insisted on leaving, the most likely thing would be to hide in the mountains and become a refugee.With Su Ye's current small body, the possibility of surviving is extremely slim.

Therefore, when Yu Feng said that he wanted to discuss it with the villagers, he couldn't say no to it no matter what.

It wasn't until midnight that Su Ye fell asleep in a daze.

Hearing his slow breathing, Yu Feng's body, which had been stiff for most of the night, finally relaxed.

He moved over little by little, and hugged him cautiously.

Su Ye frowned, not sleeping peacefully.

Yu Feng tightened his arms, and his gaze became firmer—don't worry Xiao Yezi, as long as I'm here, no one will try to bully you!

-

The process of "discussion" was beyond Su Ye's expectation.

Yu Feng only mentioned one sentence, "Xiao Yezi ran away from home, and now the tribe is looking for him. In order not to hurt everyone, he wants to leave Yujia Village."

The bottom suddenly exploded.

Aunt Su Hua was the first to disagree, "I can't do that! You are a twin, with no relatives and no reason, where did you go?"

Aunt Chunjiu is kind on weekdays, but she is very tough at critical moments, "Don't look at us as women, but we are not the kind of unscrupulous ones. Xiaoye has brought us a livelihood. Now that he has something to do, we You can't ignore it!"

Other villagers also took this issue one after another, mostly saying things like "don't be afraid of getting hurt" or "it's a big deal to hide in the mountains", and no one raised any objections at all.

Only Su Qingzhu kept frowning while crossing his arms.

As the head of the village, Yu Feng asked as a matter of routine: "Little Zhuzi, you are also a member of the village now, tell me what you think."

Su Qingzhu cast her gaze on Su Ye's face like a torch, and raised her voice, "I want to know, why did you run away from home? Why does the clan have to arrest people?"

As soon as these words came out, even Yu Feng couldn't help being stunned. The so-called caring is chaotic. He was so focused on not letting Su Ye leave that he even forgot to ask him why he ran away from home.

Su Ye met his gaze with an unusually calm expression, "To escape marriage."

Just four words made the crowd instantly quiet.

Yu Feng was even more stunned——Xiao Yezi actually has a marriage contract? !

Aunt Su Hua jumped on her feet and shouted: "Fengzi, hurry up and hide the little page, don't let his family find it!"

Aunt Chun Jiu also responded anxiously: "Yes, yes, Fengzi finally found a wife, and no one can snatch her away!"

The women became chaotic one after another, and the expressions on their faces were more serious than when Yu Feng said that they would hurt everyone.

Aunt Su Hua asked solemnly, "Don't go to the county either, first avoid the limelight!"

Aunt Chun Jiu also confessed to the women, "In the future, when the people in the yamen come to collect the shoes, they will keep their mouths tight, so don't let it slip."

The women responded with serious expressions one by one.

Su Qingzhu curled her lips, "It's not a bad thing to get married, since someone is looking for him, let him go home!"

Aunt Su Hua put on a tiger face, and reprimanded: "If it's a good thing, Xiaoye still needs to run? Maybe it's some crooked melon in his late [-]s! Besides, Xiaoye is gone, what will you do, Brother Feng?"

"There are so many villages nearby, so many women, Brother Feng has a house and land, and he is strong, who is not in a hurry to marry?" Su Qingzhu said naturally.

Aunt Su Hua rolled his eyes at him, "There are quite a few people who are rushing to get married, who can compare to Xiao Ye?"

Su Qingzhu glanced at Su Ye, with disgust on his face, "What's so good about him? He's white and weak, and can be blown down by a gust of wind. He's not as good as me!"

Aunt Su Hua slapped him on the back, making a loud noise, and Aunt Su Hua said even louder, "Just you? You spend all day playing with cats and dogs, like a wild monkey, not even half the page superior!"

Su Qingzhu hopped and hid aside, with a dissatisfied expression on his face.

Su Ye was calm on the outside, but there was a huge turmoil in his heart. He didn't expect the attitude of the villagers to be like this. There was no doubt or disagreement, which was incredible.

Therefore, he no longer concealed it, and told the truth about his life experience and the reasons for escaping marriage.

Aunt Su Hua waved her hand and said, "We women don't know the Marquis of Yong'an. The sky is high here and the emperor is far away. Thanks to Xiao Ye, I can only see one or two Zaoli. Don't say you didn't kill and set fire, even if you really did us I won't talk too much!"

Su Ye covered the tears in his eyes, and bowed deeply, "Ma'am, aunt, Su Ye is here to thank you!"

Everyone waved their hands, "No way, no way!"

Aunt Chunjiu smiled and said, "As long as Xiaoye doesn't dislike him, he can live here with peace of mind. No matter how old he is, can he come to our small village to turn people over?"

"If there is such a day, if you drill into the forest, even if the emperor comes, you won't be able to find it!"

Having said that, the atmosphere became relaxed again.

Aunt Su Hua has a lot of experience after all, she pondered for a moment, and suggested: "Tomorrow, my nephew is going to register in the county, Xiao Ye might as well get with him, if anyone asks, just say he's a brother, it's me Brought down from the mountain!"

The new emperor came to the throne, and the imperial court encouraged refugees to return to their native places, so the review was not strict.

Su Ye suddenly realized that this place is not modern, there is no well-developed information network, once the name is changed, who can find him?

Yu Feng also nodded excitedly, "This is the best, even if someone knows that there are more people in our village, they will definitely not be suspicious!"

"Auntie, auntie, I don't want to be his brother!" Su Qingzhu pulled Aunt Su Hua's sleeve, eager to express her rejection.

Aunt Su Hua glanced at him, then turned her head and eagerly summed up, completely ignoring his wishes.

Su Qingzhu had no choice but to point the finger at Su Ye, glaring at him angrily, "I advise you to refuse!"

Su Ye raised her eyebrows, and instead of being unhappy, she smiled at him. In his eyes, Shuang'er in front of him was just a boy in the second stage of middle school.

As expected, Su Qingzhu's eyes widened immediately, his face was full of disbelief, and he no longer had the previous provocative look.

Su Ye's smile deepened, and his heavy heart suddenly lightened.

At this moment, he really felt a sense of belonging to Yujia Village.
