Depressed little landlord

More than two hours away from the town to the west, there is a mountain range.In fact, the distance is not very far, but because there are many mountains and they have not been leveled, it will always take more time to walk the mountain road.

The tallest mountain here is Shuangqi Mountain. Because the top of the mountain looks like twin peaks from any angle, it is named after it. From this mountain as a point, it stretches for hundreds of miles in all directions, full of tall and short mountain tops and forests. The villages inside are also large and small. As for the specific numbers, it is estimated that no one in the yamen can remember them clearly, so we can only look through the books kept in the warehouse in the yamen.

However, some of them are not necessarily recorded, because there will always be some villages abandoned for some reason, and a new one is built in another place, so it is necessary to check the details, and the county master will probably have a headache.

Wangshan Village is one of them, and it is almost backed by Shuangqi Mountain, so it can be regarded as a relatively inner mountain village.

Originally, there were quite a lot of households and population in the village, but because of the land, more and more people were forced to move out in order to seek a living.

Mainly in the southwest of the village, it was originally a small basin, which was more suitable for planting farmland in the past, but I don’t know when, after the small lake over there became salty, the land became more and more dry, let alone the crops. The trees and weeds are gradually reduced, and only some drought-resistant crops can be planted slowly.

Now there are only a dozen households in the village.

Last year, because Mr. Lin in the town bought the land on the other side of the small lake, it was lively again for a while. After hearing the reason, the people in the village also secretly looked forward to it. If they could really produce salt, maybe their village There is also a way out, but unfortunately, this expectation was shattered a few months ago, and the village has returned to tranquility.

On this day, on the mountain road entering the village, people rushing to the village suddenly appeared again. When the villagers who were plowing the fields in the mountains heard the sound, they couldn't help but looked up at the road.

Between the leaves and grass stalks, I could vaguely see two carts walking towards the village. The front one seemed to be sitting on people, and the one behind was probably saluting. Wrapped in black cloth, only the dark Yes, but it seemed to be quite heavy at the time, so the younger ones got together and chatted curiously.

"Why are there outsiders at this time?"

"I don't know, but looking at it like this, it seems to be moved back?"

"Who else would lose their mind and move to live in our village?"

"Who do you care about him? You'd better hurry up and work. If you really moved here, you'll know when you go back."

The two half-grown teenagers held their foreheads that hurt from being knocked by their mothers, shrank their necks and retreated to the field, picked up the hoe and continued to dig, but they couldn't hold back their eyes from slipping to the road.

The curiosity factor in my heart is growing, and I can't suppress it at all.

After all, they are young, and their minds are more active than their parents. The people who came to the small lake to be busy before, these young people would also run over to find out what happened in their free time, so they inquired about the news. of it.

I just don't know who is here this time?

The young man wiped the sweat off his neck, and looked up again on the road down the mountain. Unfortunately, this time the scooter had already turned a corner and was nowhere to be seen. He took advantage of the opportunity to look at the cloudy sky. There was only a little bit of sunshine, but The air looked a little stuffy, and it looked like it was going to rain soon.

"Father, it seems to rain earlier this year?"

Wiped the sweat off his face again, turned his head and said to the middle-aged man diagonally behind him, the man stopped when he heard his words, held the handle of the hoe in his left hand, and wiped it with the cloth towel on his shoulder with his right hand. Wiping his sweat, he also looked up to the sky, but the light made him narrow his eyes slightly, and then nodded.

"Look at the appearance of God, eight or nine are not far from ten, it should be a matter of a day or two."

The boy's mother went to the field and poured a bowl of water over, handed it to the man first, then saw that her son was sweating from the heat, and hurriedly said: "Xiaoshan, let's rest for a while, and we can finish this piece today."

"Hey, I got it, mother. I'll rest when I'm tired." Although Xu Xiaoshan said so, he let go of the hoe and ran to the field to pour water to drink.

On the other side, a teenager who was about the same age as him also ran over, sat down beside him, continued to discuss gossip with the previous topic while resting.

His mother looked at their backs and cursed with a smile: "These two children."

After the man finished drinking the water, he handed the bowl back to her, and when he heard the words, he looked back, and a faint smile appeared on his tanned face: "Okay, they are all children, let them chat if they like, It’s rare to see outsiders in our village.”

"I just said, well, if you are tired, you can take a rest."

"No, let's finish it early and go home early."

"That's it."

*****

Lin Xuan was made miserable by this journey. When he was a child, the orphanage was on the outskirts of a small town. Even though it was just a dirt road, it was flat. Unlike now, maybe his father did it for salt. For this reason, a road was specially made that would be wide enough for a carriage to pass by, but the ground was not leveled on purpose, so it was rough.

Although it was a cart pulled by a donkey, the one behind was made of two sets of coffins. Although it was not made of the best wood, it was still very heavy, so it didn't go fast at all.

Although they were walking very slowly, he was still knocked out of his wits. His body was not completely healed, and his face turned pale again before halfway through, which worried everyone else.

And Lin Xuan didn't bother to appreciate the scenery on the road.

Butler Hua specially found a big tree, which happened to cover the road, so he stopped for a while to rest.

As soon as the cart stopped, Lin Xuan didn't even have time to get off, so he could only tilt his head, propped his hands on the edge of the plank and retched, because there was nothing in his stomach, so he vomited two or three times, and there was nothing to vomit at all up.

But not being able to spit out like this is the most uncomfortable thing.

Xiao Ju and Xiao Lin Xun, who were also in the car, stretched out their hands from left to right to caress his back.

Xu Yang rushed over from behind, and first touched his forehead with his hand, seeing that it was a bit cold, then looking at his appearance, he couldn't help frowning with thick eyebrows.

"Master, be patient a little longer, we will be there soon."

"Ah."

After retching a few times and being unable to vomit anything, Lin Xuan responded weakly, it was the water that Xiaoju poured, and he almost had no strength to take it.

When Xu Yang saw it, he quickly took it, put the bowl to his mouth, and fed it to him little by little.Lin Xuan stopped drinking after two sips, feeling that his stomach was churning even more after he had just swallowed this little water.

"Master, why don't you lie down, it might be more comfortable."

Butler Hua nodded and said yes: "Yes, young master, anyway, we put the quilt at the bottom, you'd better take a nap, your body is still not in good shape, and I will call you when I get to the old slave."

Xiaoju has already tidied up the space quickly, trying to spread out a flat floor for him to lie down on.Even Xiao Lin Xun looked at him worriedly. Seeing that Xiaoju had already made a piece of land, he patted the place with his little hand and said to him, "Brother, come and lie down and sleep."

Lin Xuan glanced at them, did not refuse, touched Lin Xun's small head and lay down as he said, Xiao Lin Xun still thoughtfully covered his eyes with his small hand.

"Brother, close your eyes and go to sleep."

"it is good."

Lin Xuan held his younger brother's little hand in one hand, feeling his fleshy touch. I don't know if it was the sweltering weather, or because the child's anger was high. Holding him, it felt warm, which seemed to make him feel less so. It's hard.

He really yearns for family affection so much that he seems to be possessed?Lin Xuan couldn't help laughing at himself from the bottom of his heart.

However, I was just lying down to nourish my spirits, but I didn't expect to actually fall asleep in the end. When I was woken up, I realized that I had arrived.

As soon as he woke up, he seemed to hear the sound of a cock crowing. Lin Xuan couldn't help but wanted to sit up in doubt, but suddenly found that his chest was a little heavy. He raised his head slightly to look, only to find that Lin Xun's small body was curled up beside him, his head was on the Lie on his chest.

"Master, we are here."

Xu Yang came over, hugged Xiao Lin Xun lightly, and whispered to him, Lin Xuan was sure that what he heard just now was correct, and when Lin Xun was carried away, he slowly walked away. sat up.

But after seeing the surrounding scene clearly, the pretty eyebrows couldn't help frowning fiercely.
