The Big Landlord

Tang Shi was still holding the oily pancake in his hand. He looked at the back of Mr. Zhao's leaving in disappointment, and then looked down at the pancake in his hand. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that the Zhao family must have something more delicious. thing!

"Uncle is really generous. We don't have enough food in our family, so we give it to others. Didn't you see that the children are not full?" A sharp female voice sounded from another table.

There are two tables for meals in the Tang family, one for men and one for women, but there is also a six or seven-year-old boy who may be at the same table with the women because of his younger age. Tang Shi followed the sound and found that the talking It is a woman wearing a coarse cloth skirt. The woman is about 30 years old. She has better eyebrows. Although there are crow's feet at the end of her eyes, her eyes are still relatively delicate and correct. The nasolabial folds are slightly deep. It's not ugly, but it looks a little mean.

Tang shi searched his memory and found that this woman was his second sister-in-law Fang.

"Second daughter-in-law, eat as soon as you eat, why do you talk so much? It's a kind heart to give people cakes with stones! It's in your way, why don't you know how to do more work if you know how to talk? Why don't you give it to me if you don't work? Your girl, save some rations?" Tang Shi is Liu's eyeball, so others can't say a bad word.

There was nothing wrong with Fang Shi's complaints from her point of view, but her mistake was that she should not have offended Liu Shi. Anyway, in Liu Shi's eyes, everything Tang Shi did was right.

After all, Tang Shi had spent ten years in the apocalypse, and he was very sensitive to other people's emotions. He could tell at a glance that the children were a little dissatisfied, and then looked at the pancake in his hand with longing eyes.

"Grandma, am I wrong? My uncle is your son, so they are not your grandsons?" Fang is a hot-tempered person who can't hold back her words. She just can't understand Liu's special preference for her brother-in-law. .

"Okay, let's have a meal, what's the noise?" Tang Qing, the patriarch of the Tang family, had already put down his bowl and chopsticks, and was smoking a long cigarette. His wrinkled face, which was red by the sun, was looming in the smoke. Annoyed, he said slowly.

Once he speaks, who dares to say no?Tang Ji, the second child of the Tang family, quickly signaled his daughter-in-law to shut up with his eyes.Even though Fang was still dissatisfied, she could only swallow it, curled her lips, and gnawed on the rough bun again with a face.

The Tang family's food is really not good. When Tang Shi was a young master, he had eaten many times better than these. He would often dismiss some dishes that were good in the eyes of ordinary people, but the end of the world has completely changed. Without him, he is no longer that expensive young master.

Tang Shi actually felt that he was not full yet, but seeing the wistful looks of the children opposite him, he put the cake in his hand on the plate again.

Liu asked worriedly, "Why don't you eat?"

Tang Shi covered his head on purpose, and said, "Aniang, my head hurts and I can't eat anymore."

Mrs. Liu personally wiped his mouth with her sleeve, and showed a loving smile on her wrinkled face, "Go back to the house and lie down when Shishi has a headache. When the medicine is ready, Auntie will bring it to you."

Tang Shi nodded obediently, and was about to leave the main room as soon as he stepped forward, when Old Master Tang said slowly, "Who taught you to be so rude? Are you still sitting without looking at the elders?" Tang Qing's voice was honest There is some roughness in the middle, and it sounds like his temper should be considered mild.

Before Tang Shi had time to reply, Mrs. Liu took care of the cub: "Shitou suffered a big loss today! What are you talking about? You don't feel bad at all if you dare to love? Why did Shishi spread out? Such a father!" The more she talked, the more she felt wronged, the youngest son was her sweetheart, no one could say anything bad, including Mr. Tang!

Tang Qing stopped talking, and smoked dry cigarettes for a long time. After Tang Shi had returned to the house, he finally uttered a few words: "Sooner or later, you will get spoiled."

Tang Shi went back to his small bedroom. The roof of the bedroom was made of thatch, and the muddy floor under his feet had pits here and there. The windows were also casually pasted with paper. To keep out the wind, fortunately it is spring now, and there will be no north wind whistling.

Such a simple house is really too warm and beautiful for Tang Shi today!He lay down on the cardboard-like bed with his chubby belly, closed his eyes and felt the wonderful world comfortably.

How lucky was he in Tang Dynasty?To be able to come to this normal world without demonization after death is simply amazing!

"Stone! Stone!" Liu's slightly shrill shout sounded from outside the door, "The medicine is here, get up and drink it." Holding the big greasy bowl in both hands, she kicked open the door, walked into the room, and came to the Tang Dynasty. in front of time.

"Thank you, Ma'am!" Tang Shi got up from the bed, took the medicine bowl, drank it while Liu was stunned, and then handed the medicine bowl to Liu, "Ma'am, I'm done."

Returning from the shock, Mrs. Liu immediately smiled, and said with relief: "Shishi has grown up. I used to drink medicine and my mother would not drink it no matter how much I coaxed her. Now this one is so capable. My mother is so happy."

Seeing the happiness on her face, Tang Shi was slightly moved in his heart. It had been a long, long time since he had felt such wholehearted love and care. The ten years of the last days had allowed him to experience all kinds of indifference of human nature, and he was about to lose himself. human emotions.

Mrs. Liu chatted with him a few more words, and then left happily with the bowl.

Tang Shi watched her leave, and lay down again, when the door creaked again, he turned his head to look, hehe, two little carrot heads were sneaking at him through the crack of the door.It was only then that Tang Shi remembered that the old Tang's house didn't have enough rooms, so Yuanshen could only squeeze in with his two nephews every night.

Yuanshen's nephews and nieces were a little afraid of him, they were not close to him, and Yuanshen ignored them, and Tang Shi just didn't know how to communicate with children, so he also chose to ignore him, closed his eyes and fell asleep, by the way Turned over to the edge of the bed, leaving enough room for them.

Not long after, two radish heads walked in cautiously, and they whispered as they walked, but Tang Shi's mental strength was so strong that he was able to hear their conversation clearly.

"Brother, is there something wrong with Uncle today?"

"Isn't it like that? What's wrong? But it seems that he ate less tonight."

"I just watched it on the sly. Uncle took a lot of medicine today. It's not the same as usual."

"Maybe his head was smashed, okay, it's time to rest." There was still some disdain in the child's tone, Tang Shi could hear it.

Tsk, these two brats.

The older child let the younger one step over Tang Shi's body first, and the child crawled over carefully, saying, "Brother, come quickly."

The older child nodded, and had already stepped over with one leg, but he accidentally tripped and threw himself on Tang Shi.

Tang shi opened his eyes instantly, staring at the child.

In the darkness, with the moonlight shining in from the window, Tang Shi could clearly see the panicked expression on the other's thin face and feel his stiff body.

Tang Shi closed his eyes again and muttered, "What is so heavy?"

The big boy quickly climbed off him, turned his back to Tang shi lightly, and lay on his side next to Tang shi, keeping warm with the little boy.

The cold air in spring has not dissipated yet, but fortunately they slept on an earthen kang, and the women in the family would heat the kang while cooking dinner, and it was still hot at this time.

It's just that, now that the quilt was occupied by Tang shi, the two had just alarmed Tang shi, and now they didn't dare to move the quilt, thinking about grabbing some quilts after Tang shi fell asleep.

Tang Shi was indeed a little tired. He was always worried about the end of the world and had never had a good night's sleep. Now that he came to this strange ancient time, he quickly fell asleep with peace of mind.

A sweet night without dreams.

Tang Shi didn't wake up until it was high in the sun. The first thing he did when he woke up was to pinch his thigh to see if he was dreaming.Well, it really hurts.

Sitting up, he found that the quilt completely covered him without revealing a single gap, and he couldn't help but be moved.

He got up and left the house, his stomach was hungry, and he couldn't wait to find something to eat.Tang Shi moved his nose and found a scent coming from one direction. He followed the smell and walked all the way, and he found the kitchen!

In the kitchen, Mrs. Liu and her two daughters-in-law were preparing to make lunch. When she saw Tang Shi walking over anxiously, she quickly brought out a large bowl of noodles in clear soup with a few cabbage leaves floating in it.

"Shitou, are you hungry? Auntie has been saving it for you! Eat quickly, later Auntie will deliver food to the field with your sister-in-law and second-in-law, so she won't take care of you. There are still some pickles here..." She When the pickles were brought over, Tang Shi had already devoured most of the bowl.

"Aniang, I want more." Tang Shi swallowed the remaining pimples, and looked at Liu Shi with a pair of innocent eyes regardless of the batter congealed at the corners of his mouth.

"My uncle can really eat!" Fang said sourly.

Sister-in-law Gao gave her a wink and shook her head.

Liu treated her as a fart and didn't even give her a look, so she reached out and touched Tang Shi's head, "Wait a little longer, the cake is not baked yet, go get some water and rinse your mouth first." Wash your face, huh?"

Tang Shi was already used to being dirty and messy in the last days. When he first heard that he had to wash his mouth and face, he felt that the shame of having left him for nearly ten years popped up at this moment. Of course, it was only a head.

He was about to go to the well to get some water to wake up, when he saw a girl with a flushed face intrude into the yard made of earth and rocks.

When the girl saw him, her almond eyes widened and she burst out: "Tang Shi! You scoundrel! Shameless!"

Huh?Isn't this the little girl who hit him on the head yesterday?He didn't do anything today!
