Hu Laoer's ugly face, and Yao Yan and Ma Yu's defensive posture quickly attracted the attention of the recent guests.

Before they came over, Yao Yan smiled and took two steps forward, Ma Yu put down his hand, but followed him and took two steps forward, and the two happened to stand side by side in front of Hu Erge.

"Brother Hu, this is my choice, not forced by him. You should be happy for me. I, Yao Sanlang, have a decent family now."

Yao Yan's words made Brother Hu feel even more uncomfortable, but he was still a little sensible, and he didn't make Ma Yu look bad in front of so many people. Besides, Second Brother Hu secretly glanced at Ma Yu's body, feeling extremely bitter in his heart. He can't beat it either.

Next, Second Brother Hu kept on drinking until Big Brother Hu couldn't stand it anymore, so he dragged him back home.

After returning home, the second brother Hu sat in front of Mrs. Hu and cried loudly. Mrs. Hu was getting old. After eating something in the past, she was sent home by her daughter-in-law. Seeing her second brother crying like a child in front of him, Hu The old lady was not in a hurry.

"What are you crying about, why are you crying on a good day."

Brother Hu wiped his tears, pointed with one hand in the direction of Yao Yan's small house, and with the other in the direction of Yao Yan and Ma Yu's new home, and then put his hands together, "This, this, how did this happen? ?”

"Second brother, you are too drunk, I can't understand what you are gesticulating." Boss Hu felt a little dizzy after drinking, but now his brother made such gestures, and his mind became even more confused.

After the two gestures made by Mr. Hu, he exhausted his energy and collapsed on the ground, with his head half down and stopped talking. Mrs. Hu half-closed her eyes, looked outside the yard for a while, and then said, "Boss, take the second child back to his room." Go, fortunately Hu Zi is not here, otherwise we will have to watch him laugh."

Boss Hu hurriedly followed suit.

Mrs. Hu came to the yard on crutches, looked at the sky, narrowed her cloudy eyes, "Tomorrow will be a fine day again."

After seeing off the guests, Yao Yan, Ma Yu and the helpers who stayed behind cleaned up the courtyard, Uncle Ma also counted the remaining meat and vegetables, and brought some back to the helpers to add vegetables, and then two more Ask Ma Yu to send it to the Hu family.

It was already late when Ma Yu passed by, but Mrs. Hu was still awake, and the courtyard door was ajar. Ma Yu wanted to knock on the door, but she didn't want Mrs. Hu's voice to appear.

"Come in directly."

Ma Yu was a little surprised, he subconsciously looked back at the courtyard door, only to find that there was a gap two fingers wide under the courtyard door, where his feet could be seen.

Putting down the things, Ma Yu wanted to leave, but Mrs. Hu asked him to sit for a while and talk.

"The child was picked up by an old sister in the village in winter. The old sister took it home and fed it some rice porridge. She thought that the chance of surviving was not great, but she didn't want the child to be stubborn, so he really survived."

Mrs. Hu recalled the past, "but the old sister lived alone, how good would that be? Besides, she is old, if the child is left behind, it will be the young one who suffers, so the old sister embraces I took the child to find the previous village chief."

The village head agreed to keep the baby, and even took it to a family that just had a baby, and asked them to feed it.

"In those days, life was difficult, and there was little milk, and my own child couldn't get enough to feed. What other children were fed, but even so, the child survived."

"...At first, I thought that Sanlang's life would be better after following Uncle Yao, but within two years, Uncle Yao also went, and Sanlang became more and more confused, but last year he changed, I thought he had grown up , but when I saw you later, I suddenly felt that this child was just waiting for you."

Ma Yu was shocked and looked at Mrs. Hu.

Mrs. Hu raised her wrinkled face and said with a smile, "I'm almost buried. What can't I accept? Saburo has been suffering for so many years. With you taking care of him, I feel at ease."

"aunt……"

Ma Yu's throat was sour.

"Go back, take good care of him, and you have to take good care of yourself," Mrs. Hu sent Ma Yu away with a smile.

Just as he was about to close the courtyard door, he heard footsteps behind him, then Second Brother Hu silently extended his hand to close the courtyard door, and helped Mrs. Hu to walk into her room.

He didn't ask anything, and Mrs. Hu didn't say anything more.

After Yao Yan learned about it, he remembered what he said before, "I said, when I have my own house, I will invite Aunt Hu to come and live there for two days. I haven't forgotten this."

"I haven't forgotten," Ma Yu hugged him, "Now that daddy and the others are here, this house is not convenient. Why don't we buy a small courtyard in the town and take Aunt Hu to live in the town for a few days. feasible?"

After thinking for a while, Yao Yan nodded, "The lady in this village has lived in this village for so many years, but she has never lived in the town. It would be good to take this opportunity."

If it wasn't for the worry of Hu's family, he would have wanted to go to the county town to let Aunt Hu live.

Tiejiang Wen and Uncle Ma didn't object to buying the yard when they learned about it.

"In the future, the children will live in the town, so they can study well."

"At that time, we will also go to the town, and go back to the village if we have a vacation," the two old men have already begun to look forward to the future.

Yao Yan and the others moved quickly, and they told Xiao Shanzi when they returned to the town. Xiao Shanzi patted his chest and said that the matter was left to him. Within three days, they found several yards, and Yao Yan and the two of them one by one. Come to see the house.

In the end, a yard with two entrances and exits was decided. Since the two old men have considered the children, the yard should not be too small, but if it is too large, it would be wasteful to live in. The two entrances and exits are just right.

After paying the money and getting the house deed, the two began to purchase furniture and utensils. After five days, the house was really liveable, and it had been a month since they returned to town.

The two rented a carriage, went back to the village and took the two old men, Mrs. Hu and Hu Zi into the town together.

"Is that Ma Dalang's carriage?"

"It should be, this is a fortune!"

"That's right, they have a shop in the town!"

What is even more curious is why Ma Yu and the others not only picked up their own family members, but also picked up the Hu family, the old and the young, when they came back.

When asked, Hu Boss and Hu Lao Er kept talking, "My mother wants to go back to her mother's house for a visit. She's not too old, and it's not easy to get wind. It happened that Ma Dalang rented a carriage and came back, so he hitched a ride."

Here comes the point.

Carriages are rented.

Now those caring people are finally balanced.

"The same goes for Ma Dalang. It doesn't cost money to repair the house? Since I have no money, I'll come back in a bullock cart. What kind of carriage should I rent?"

"You don't understand this, it's called posturing!"

"Hahaha……"

Huzi excitedly helped Mrs. Hu into the yard. He was at the age of being curious about everything, and wished he had eyes on the back of his head.

After settling down the three elderly people and buying some snacks to coax Huzi not to run out of the yard, Yao Yan had time to go to the shop, while Ma Yu went to buy vegetables and meat for a good dinner in the evening.

"Little shopkeeper, I haven't seen you setting up a stall for several days," the customer came over smelling the smell, bought several bunches of things, looked at Yao Yan and said with a smile.

Yao Yan sighed, "There are a lot of things at home, and I'm here right after I'm done."

The guest smiled, leaned over and said in a low voice, "There is another skewer seller on the South Street, but the taste is still not as good as yours."

"is it?"

Yao Yan really didn't pay much attention to it this month, and devoted himself to the yard.

"No," the guest coughed, "I went to buy it on purpose, and the taste is really not as good as yours. I see, no matter how many there are, the skewers from the little shopkeeper are the best."

"Just to say this to you, I have to give you a skewer to be worthy of this evaluation. Do you want stinky tofu or meat skewers?"

The guests were very pleasantly surprised, "Stinky tofu, I love that one bite!"

After an hour or so, Ma Yu came over, "The food is ready, let's go home."

"Success, close the stall."

Yao Yan yawned and was about to clean up the stall. Ma Yu pulled him aside and sat down.

A table of good food made everyone's bellies round. Mrs. Hu looked at Yao Yan with a smile, "It's a very good day. Madam is happy for you and for you."

Huzi nodded at the side, "I want to live such a good life in the future!"

"Then you have to study hard." Ma Yu pinched his nose, "This time I come to town, and one more thing is to enlighten you, we have to find a good teacher."

"Most masters are good," Blacksmith Wen said honestly as always, "It depends on whether you are serious about learning."

Hu Zi grinned, "I must study hard, and grandma will live such a good life with me in the future."

"Okay," Uncle Ma nodded when he heard the words, and said to Mrs. Hu with a smile, "I'm so lucky, this grandson is good!"

Yao Yan was amused by these words, and Ma Yu also coughed, "Father, these words sound a bit awkward."

Blacksmith Wen laughed out loud, and Uncle Ma laughed too when he came back to his senses.

The next day, Ma Yu took Huzi to visit his master, and Yao Yan and Mrs. Hu went to the shop. It was the first time that Mrs. Hu wandered around other people's shop so freely. She was happy, and so was Yao Yan.

It's a pity that Mrs. Hu's teeth are not very good, so she can't eat much Chuaner.

But she can't eat many skewers, but it doesn't prevent her from helping, even if she takes one thing, she can be happy for a long time.

Shopkeeper Wang stood at the door of Buzhuang, looking over there. The shop happened to be fine, so Xiao Ding came over, "Boss, what are you looking at?"

"Look," Shopkeeper Wang pointed at Mrs. Hu beside Yao Yan, "Who is this old lady from Saburo?"

"I met the day I had housewarming wine," Xiaoding smiled. "It's Brother Yao's neighbor. Brother Yao has been taken care of by their family for so many years, and they have a very good relationship."

"is it?"

Shopkeeper Wang looked at it for a while, and finally sighed, "He has a good heart." His voice was too low, and Xiao Ding couldn't hear what he said.

A few days later, Huzi's wife was confirmed, and Tiejiang Wen and Uncle Ma also returned to the village, and by the way, Brother Hu went to the town to take Huzi to pay homage to his master.

Huzi Shunli didn't stay to study, and temporarily lived in Yao Yan's yard. There was a child there, and the dinner was very lively at night. They listened to Huzi talking about the private school, both good and bad.

When Huzi made his first friend, Ma Yu and Yao Yan specially made a table of delicious food, and asked Huzi to bring each other to have a meal.

"Your family is really big," the child named Shen Jun whispered next to Huzi.

Huzi is very generous, "No, this is not my house, it's my Uncle Ma and Uncle Yao's house, but they treat me very well, my parents said, this is like my uncle's house, although I can be at ease, But you can't be presumptuous, Uncle Ma and the others can teach me a lesson and spank my ass."

After saying that, Hu Zi touched his butt, "But I've always been obedient, and I haven't been beaten by Uncle Yao and the others yet."

Shen Jun was startled when he heard that, he secretly glanced at Yao Yan and the others who were watering the garden, and said in a low voice, "My mother is weak, and it hurts when you fight, isn't it painful for you two uncles to fight?" Is it? You have to be more obedient in the future."

"Of course I know."

Huzi doesn't want to be hit by men's doubles.

Since then, as long as Huzi's friends come to visit at home, they all behave like little chickens.

The Hu family gave Yao Yan and his son the money for lodging, and they naturally didn't want it. In desperation, the Hu family gave the tiger's rations every month, and whenever they had time, they would bring some melons, fruits and vegetables from the village. When they declined, the Hu family said they would take Huzi away and live elsewhere.

Yao Yan's small stall is no longer open very often. He is more often helping Ma Yu choose wood, and following Ma Yu to look around for wood. Even the blacksmith's shop has been rented out to others, but it is still a blacksmith's shop.

This was also agreed by Tiejiang Wen. After learning how much money the family had, the two old men didn't fall asleep for several nights, fearing that they would be stolen and robbed after revealing their wealth.

It wasn't until later that it gradually calmed down.

On the day Xiao Shanzi got married, Yao Yan and Ma Yu prepared generous gifts to drink the wedding wine, and were toasted several glasses of wine by the couple.

When he sobered up the next day, he blushed and brought Sanmei over to apologize.

Yao Yan said a few words of comfort, and after seeing them off, he said to Ma Yu, "None of the relatives from Xiaoshanzi came yesterday."

"It seems to be," Ma Yu nodded, "but it's better not to come, so as not to be confused in the future."

"That's true," Yao Yan nodded.

This year's Chinese New Year, they still go back to the village.

In order to thank Yao Yan, Li Ting and the others often sent things to Li's house. This time when he returned to the village, he also came to sit at the house and brought some snacks.

The dim sum was delicious, and it was Yao Yan and Wen Tiejiang's favorite.

"Should I call you Brother Ma or Master Ma?"

Li Ting in the county had naturally heard of Ma Yu's reputation, and Ma Yu smiled when he heard this, "It's still the same."

Li Ting also smiled. He glanced at Yao Yan's embroidery hanging on the wall of the main room. It was a pair of landscape embroidery, very delicate, "He gave it to you?"

Yao Yan nodded, "Yes, I also mentioned in the letter that if there is one, I will buy it for me. I don't want him to ask someone to embroider it, and let Butler Wu send it over and say it is a New Year's gift."

"I have a heart," Li Ting sighed softly, "But he is such a pure person, if I hadn't provoked him back then, maybe he wouldn't have had that unhappy time."

"Provocation?" Ma Yu didn't understand, "Acquaintance is fate, even if we didn't get together, it can't be called provocation."

"No, you don't understand," Li Ting shook his head in pain. He already knew that he liked men. After saving Liu Qinglin that day, he was full of him when he went back. It was not so much that Liu Qinglin fell in love with him for a long time. Said that he deliberately planted the seeds of ambiguity.

"The matter is over, you have to look forward," Yao Yan persuaded.

"Why don't I think so," Li Ting looked out of the yard, "But after all, I can't accompany him for too long. Our second wife must pass on the family line, and I can't escape this."

After Li Ting left, Yao Yan and Ma Yu felt bad.

"No matter what we will face in the future, I will never leave you."

Ma Yu took Yao Yan's hand and looked at him seriously.

"I've heard the words many times, and you know my answer," Yao Yan pressed his fingers against his mouth, "I want you to prove it with practical actions."

"Okay," Ma Yu hugged him.

I spent the Chinese New Year in the new house this year. There is also an ancestral hall in the new house, not only the ancestors of the Ma family, but also the Wen family.

After burning the incense, Uncle Ma sighed softly, "I kind of want to go back and have a look."

From Ma's family to Uncle Ma's generation, they have been single-handed, and their relatives have long since disappeared, but relatives and old friends are still there.

After being away for so many years, I naturally want to go back and have a look.

"Then go," Ma Yu said briskly, "I'll ask a few brothers with good martial arts to protect you and Dad around, and come back when you have seen enough and eaten enough."

"Can this work?" Blacksmith Wen was moved, "How much money will it cost?"

"Isn't our family's money enough for you and your father?" Yao Yan's words reassured the two Uncle Ma, and they looked proud with their heads held high.

"That's right. Although we have no money, we can't hold back that our children are all promising."

"Then let's leave after fifteen?"

"Okay, let me think about what to bring..."

Watching the two old men gathered together to discuss the departure salute, Yao Yan took Ma Yu's hand, "I still want to stay here for a few years, and let's go out for a walk when it's about the same time."

The male lead's affairs will not be over for another three to five years. He can't take risks, let alone take Ma Yu out to take risks. He can still survive here with Wu Yuanshan's influence.

"it is good."

Ma Yu naturally had no objection.

After the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, the two old men left secretly, but they told the public that they were going to live in the town for a while.

The person who escorted the old man was invited by one of Ma Yu's guests. Besides the guard, there was also a doctor accompanying him. After all, Uncle Ma was not in good health before.

There are no old men in the house, but it is much more empty, and even the tiger says he misses them.

Seeing the beginning of spring, Yao Yan's small stall also came out, but only sold [-] copies a day.

On the contrary, Huzi and his classmates don't have to worry about food, but those little classmates are not free, they are helpful to Huzi's maintenance and taking care of his homework.

This made Yao Yan very envious.

"I also wanted such a friend back then," but the first thing those classmates thought of him was that he was an orphan.

"I'm worse than you. When I was a child, I was locked up at home by my father to cut wood," Ma Yu deliberately said that he was extremely miserable, and Yao Yan almost believed it.

"I remember Dad said that you caught it by yourself, and he didn't force you to learn it."

"Really? I don't remember." Ma Yu looked at the sky.

Yao Yan chuckled lightly.

In the summer, the old men came back.

It's been a lot of dark, but it seems that the spirit is very good, and I brought a lot of things to them and the Hu family.

But before this joy was over, Brother Hu came to report with red eyes, saying that Mrs. Hu had gone.

"My second child and I went to help someone build a house. My daughter-in-law went back to her mother's house to celebrate her sister-in-law's birthday. My brother and sister were pregnant and inconvenient. They were at home. I didn't want to hear any voice from the old lady all afternoon. I felt something was wrong to knock There was no answer to the door, so I pushed the door open and saw that the old lady had been gone for a long time with a smile on her face."

All hard.

But he died without a problem, and passed away with a smile, expressing that he was very satisfied with his descendants.

In front of the mourning hall, Huzi hiccupped from crying, making others feel very uncomfortable.

Yao Yan was also sad. He and Ma Yu, like the Hu family, dressed in mourning for the old lady and kowtowed to see her off.

After the old lady was buried, they took the tiger back to the town.

Huzi obviously grew up a lot and became more sensible.

But when Ma Yu secretly went to see the other party at night, he still heard the cry of the tiger outside the door.

"This child is very affectionate," Ma Yu sighed when he returned to the room.

"That's his grandma." Yao Yan pursed his lips, "The aunt is so kind, let alone a tiger, I haven't felt relieved yet."

Ma Yu hugged him quietly.

Perhaps because of Mrs. Hu's sudden death, Yao Yan and Ma Yu began to pay close attention to the physical condition of Blacksmith Wen and Uncle Ma.

"Father, you have eaten three sweet potatoes just now." Just as Uncle Ma was happily eating sweet potatoes, Ma Yu suddenly stood behind him eeriely and reminded, "I remember you ate too many sweet potatoes last time." , can’t go on, and took medicine?”

Uncle Ma: ...

"This wine is good, strong enough!" Just as Tiejiang Wen was drinking his own wine comfortably, Yao Yan suddenly appeared beside him, looking at him expressionlessly, "Father, I heard that the old man Yes, drink too much and you'll have a stroke."

Blacksmith Wen: ...

Not only Yao Yan and Ma Yu, but even Huzi started staring at them.

This made Tiejiang Wen and Uncle Ma miserable.

Fortunately, I can understand the children's intentions, and they are very cooperative in checking the pulse, and they are also restrained in eating and drinking.

Garden at night.

"Old Wen, where did you get this wine?"

"I hid under the magnolia tree in the backyard of the shop. Isn't that shop rented out? No one knows I'm hiding there." Tiejiang Wen was very proud.

"Then try my jerky!" Uncle Ma also took out the things he had hidden, and looked at the blacksmith above with a questioning look. Uncle Ma smiled, "I hid under the shelf of Sanlang's stall, and I was not found."

At the corner, Ma Yu and Yao Yan crossed their arms and looked at the two old men who were stealing food.

"Should we sell their inventory?" Ma Yu suggested.

"It's not much, let them do it," Yao Yan knew well that it's hard to keep taboo, and their health is fine, it's just that they take care of it in advance.

"You said we go out to scare them now, will they pass the responsibility on to each other?"

Ma Yu laughed.

Yao Yan glanced at him, "This black light is blind, if you tripped and broke something because you were scared, you will cry sometimes."

Ma Yu followed Yao Yan back to the room in despair.

The next morning, Ma Yu looked at the two old men who were in a very good mood, coughed and stepped forward, "Last night I heard something moving in the back garden, did you hear it?"

Uncle Ma and Blacksmith Wen looked at each other and shook their heads innocently.

"No."

"Yes, I slept soundly."
