An Ziqi's ancient life

An Ziqi's house was very lively during this period, and people's roars could be heard from far away.Except for those who guard the gate, none of the numbers are willing to come back easily, and they run around on the mountain every day.If you are hungry, you would rather look for some wild animals in the mountains, and eating raw is better than eating at home!The old and shameless master of the little master is really annoying.

"My good number five, eat this, okay? I just want to see what kind of wonderful reaction the dog will have after eating this food. Don't be afraid, okay?" Li Yan held his hand as if coaxing his good grandson One of the pills in it is near number five.

Number Five tucked his tail tightly under his buttocks, crawled backwards, and shook his head desperately.I don't want to eat your food!The sad precedent of brothers and sisters is still there!If it wasn't its turn to guard the gate today, it wouldn't stay here and be oppressed by this bad uncle!Little master come to help!Number five roared loudly, "Wooooow, woof..." The sound was so miserable.

"Hey, don't be afraid, I won't eat the dog to death, don't worry! It's only a little pain at most, a little..." Li Yan got closer and closer, and No. [-] finally collapsed.

"Aooooooooow..." No. [-] ran away with its tail between its legs. It would rather be beaten by the little master than eat the uncle's pills!

"Hey hey hey, why are you running! Why don't you guard the gate and wait for the good disciple to come back to deal with you!" Li Yan jumped behind, but it was a pity that No. [-] ran so fast that he rushed to the mountain in the blink of an eye and lost his figure. .

"Humph! What an uncute little guy!" Li Yan was quite disappointed, but these dogs only obeyed his orders not to bite him, but they didn't ask them to obey him. Li Yan was very upset, and the good boy should be educated Educate these disobedient dogs.

An Ziqi was holding a basket of toon buds in his hand, and looked at his master quite speechlessly.

"Master, just spare the numbers of my family!" An Ziqi couldn't help complaining when he saw that the unscrupulous master wanted to crush the pills and sprinkle them into the food bowls of the numbers.The numbers have all been hungry and skinny recently.Unscrupulous masters always have strange ways to put medicine into their food and water. The poor numbers dare not eat at home. few.

"Hmph! I'm doing this for research, for science!" Li Yan quietly withdrew his hand that was about to apply medicine to the bowls of the numbers, and coughed before saying.

An Ziqi looked at the baby's serious face and tried to pretend to be old-fashioned, and thought it was very funny.

"Yes, yes, why don't you try it on yourself first, master! Then why is your research closer to life." An Ziqi was also serious.

Li Yan blushed, and jumped on his feet, "Boy, if I try it myself, I can't continue. What if my old man can't stand the medicine and kicks his legs? The old man's body is not as good as yours. Where are the young people!"

"Really? I think you are very young! Look at how energetic you are." An Ziqi raised his eyebrows.

"Cough, cough, cough," Li Yan coughed more violently, "What are you eating today? Oh, the toon sprouts are so tender, let me get them to the kitchen for you." Li Yan snatched what was in An Ziqi's hand and ran away, afraid An Ziqi scolded him again.

An Ziqi looked at him speechless, how could this old man still look like a famous doctor?

"Zi Qi, your master told us to go there." An Liji walked over slowly, frowning and said to An Ziqi.

"Master, what's the matter?" An Ziqi asked, wiping the water off his hands.

"It's Da Lang's matter, your master sent someone to inform us."

Only then did An Ziqi remember that An Zishu was about to take an exam!It is estimated that when Mr. An asked them to go, he must have raised the issue of the cost of An Zi's book.

"Then let's go and have a look, don't call me mother."

"That's fine." An Liji took An Ziqi away.

What An Zishu will take this year is the Tongsheng Examination. If he passes the examination with excellent grades, he can then take the provincial examination. If he passes the provincial examination, he will be a scholar.

An Ziqi felt a little delicate when he thought about his elder brother whom he had only seen once in such a long time.If this good big brother is really admitted to the scholar, will it bring any trouble to his family?An Ziqi shook his head, forget it, if An Zishu really passed the exam, it would be his fate.

When An Liji and An Ziqi arrived at the old house, the An family gathered together as usual.

With her big belly, Wang looked at An Ziqi worriedly, then lowered her head.

An Ziqi glanced at the person in the room calmly.An Zihui and Sun's tails were almost up to the sky, and An Libo was also very happy.

An Zihui took a look at An Ziqi, hey, a country bumpkin is a country bumpkin, so how much money does it matter?Today An Ziqi worked in the orchard for a whole day, still wearing overalls, looking rustic.

An Ziqi caught An Zihui's gaze and didn't care at all.

"Uncle San," An Zishu greeted An Liji reservedly.Today's An Zishu is wearing a brand new silk gown, looking very bookish, except for the eager ambition in his eyes.

An Liji was also much colder towards this nephew, and just nodded lightly.

"Father, what's the matter?" An Liji looked at Mr. An.

"Third brother, Da Lang is going to the county seat to take the exam tomorrow. You are also from the An family, and you can't write two words of An in one stroke. When Da Lang is successful, he will naturally promote you, the third uncle. Da Lang remembers everything." What are your thoughts!" Mr. An said earnestly.

"Father, I know that Da Lang is promising. As the third uncle, I will naturally help my nephew. How about it, Da Lang's travel expenses, board and lodging expenses will be handed over to our third room." An Liji said.

Mr. An nodded in satisfaction.

An Ziqi pouted secretly, it's no wonder that An Zishu would remember this kindness!But An Ziqi knew that Mr. An's purpose today was to get An Liji to contribute money, and he would not quit if he did not achieve his goal.

An Liji took out 20 taels of silver and handed it to Mr. An.

Li Shi never spoke, nor did she look at An Liji.She was expressing her dissatisfaction with An Liji and An Ziqi in this way.Because An Liji's family sent a bunch of meat last time, which made her very unhappy.

Seeing that An Liji only gave 20 taels of silver, Li immediately became dissatisfied.

"Hey, big rich man, my nephew is going to take part in the scientific examination. You, an uncle, will give you such a little money? Send the beggar? Now that you have money, why don't you want to help your family more! I see you The money spent casually on those outsiders is more than what you give to your own nephew!" Li Shi said in a strange way.

An Zishu was also very dissatisfied when he saw that An Liji only gave 20 taels of silver.Obviously, his third uncle wears gold and silver for his children, so the third uncle's mother should have more than 20 taels of gold bracelets at random!But only to give him such a little, this third uncle is too stingy.Seeing that Mrs. Li had spoken, An Zishu waited to watch the show.

An Liji was not happy immediately.It is his freedom to help his nephew.An Liji felt that he was kind enough. 20 taels of silver is enough to go back and forth to the county seat, and staying in an inn is completely enough, and now the old house can't save 20 taels a year!Why should his mother think that their family's money came from the wind?Why does his mother think that he should give all the money to Da Fang?

Seeing that An Liji was shaking with anger, Mr. An hurriedly smoothed things over, "Don't mind the third child, your mother just doesn't understand at all, so don't take these words to heart. Both Dalang and I understand your feelings." of."

"Master, but I don't think the eldest brother is very satisfied either! Does he dislike my father's loss?" An Ziqi said timidly, and after asking, he hid behind An Liji pretending to be scared.

An Liji immediately went to see An Zishu, An Zishu just hadn't put away the dissatisfaction and disgust on his face.

An Liji's heart turned cold, and he felt that today's behavior of rushing to the door to give money was simply embarrassing himself, flicking his sleeves, he said, "Father, you are my father, and I respect you, but it doesn't mean that I will be punished by my family." The younger generation hates it. I will pay 20 taels of silver, which is enough for Da Lang to finish a test. As for what to do, the eldest brother can naturally help with it."

An Liji looked at An Libo, "Brother, your own business in the town is booming, and you don't know how hard it is to make money. I am a man, and the money I earn will naturally be spent on my wife and children. No What I said is ugly, brother, since you have made money, take some back! Don’t keep thinking about exploiting your family and your brothers. You have to remember that there is no impenetrable wall in the world. God is watching! "

An Libo was startled, cold sweat poured out of his back, "Third brother, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Brother, don't treat everyone as a fool." An Liji took a deep look at An Libo, "Brother, you have to touch your own conscience, don't let your conscience be eaten by dogs."

"Father," An Liji cupped his hands at the bewildered Mr. An, "Since we've finished talking, Ziqi and I will go back first."

"By the way, big brother, if Dalang thinks that 20 taels of silver is not enough, you should make up for Dalang as a father! I don't believe you are unwilling to give out such a small amount of money." An Liji walked to the gate , and stopped to add another sentence.

An Ziqi was about to burst out laughing in his heart, An Libo would never have thought that he would bring his son back to fight the autumn wind, and would burn himself on fire!And what his father said was that he was unwilling to give out the money, not that he couldn't give out the money. Let's see how An Libo explained it to the big family.

Didn't An Libo claim to have only earned Shu Xiu's money?Didn't you see that An Lizhong was already ready to move?If An Lizhong knew that An Libo bought private property and opened a shop, wouldn't the An family's old house be turned upside down?His father has also turned bad.An Ziqi chuckled and followed An Liji away.Losing a mere 20 taels of silver made An Libo no longer have the energy to think about taking advantage of their family, which is a good deal.

"Brother, what did you mean by the third child just now? Don't you want to take out the silver?" As soon as An Liji left, An Lizhong immediately made trouble!

"How can it be!" An Libo wiped his sweat, "What nonsense did you hear the third child talk about? The third child just didn't want to spend more money, so he stalked and gnawed there. How can you trust his words."

"The third one is honest, he can't tell lies since he was a child, you must have something to hide from us!" An Lizhong quit.

Both An Zishu and An Libo complained in their hearts.An Zishu knew that his father had opened a shop and even bought a house in the town, girl and mother-in-law.If this second uncle finds out, I'm afraid there will be no peace in the future!

An Libo was even more terrified. For so many years, he had been hiding from his family, enjoying himself in the town, and coming back from time to time to cry poor, and he was able to pay a large sum of money from his family to spend in the town, so uncomfortable.If An Lizhong and his father found out, then his happy days would be over.He even kept An Zishu a secret!

"Second brother, don't think about it, the third child has separated, and we don't have the same heart, so we hope we will turn against each other!" An Libo said righteously.

"I don't care if he wants us to rebel in our nest! I just want to know the truth! For so many years, our family has been eating bran and swallowing vegetables, and we have given all the money to you and Dalang. Now I know that you are deliberately spending money at home. Yinzi, I'm not happy!" An Lizhong looked heartbroken.

"Father, what did the second brother say? Being provoked by the third one, he is about to deal with his own elder brother!" An Libo knew that An Lizhong would not listen to any great truths!Immediately shift the target and let Mr. An deal with An Lizhong.

Mr. An sat on the kang blankly. He had actually thought about this problem for so many years.Every time the boss comes back, apart from the Chinese New Year and spring plowing that he asked for, he only runs most diligently during the autumn harvest.Because he can bring the grain just harvested from the field to the town to "subsidize" the business gap.

Don't lose money early, don't lose money later, but just come to cry during the autumn harvest to complain that there is no capital turnover.As long as An Libo loses his face and thinks that if he was able to continue studying at the beginning, he must be a scholar now. Mr. An will feel very guilty immediately, and he will let An Libo pull away more than half of the food.In fact, he has been thinking about buying a few more acres of land and a farm ox.After so many years, the land has become less and less, and there is not even a hair on the cattle.

"Father! Dad! Say something, Dad!" An Libo became dissatisfied immediately when he saw that Mr. An was in a daze and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Ah. Oh..." Mr. An moved his hands, trying to grab something and take a puff, only to realize that he had put all the tobacco sticks in the cabinet in order to save some tobacco leaves.So Mr. An could only wipe his mouth with the opportunity, and said, "Second brother, we are all a family. Don't say what you have and what you don't have. Your elder brother has what you have." Mr. An murmured.

If An Ziqi had to laugh when he heard this, even An Liji could only shake his head helplessly in his heart.

But, it was An Lizhong who listened to this!

"Cut!" An Lizhong glanced at An Libo contemptuously, "Father, what you said, when my elder brother eats delicious food and drinks spicy food, we are eating sorghum rice, corn stubble porridge, and old sauerkraut! Dad, Are you not guilty of what you said?"

Mr. An was stabbed speechless, he covered his chest and couldn't speak.

An Libo was in a hurry, "Second, how did you talk to dad! What if you make dad angry?" An Libo gave An Lizhong a reproachful look, and then helped Mr. An calm down.

"Why did I pissed off my dad? Well, what we're talking about now is the issue of you taking the money!" An Lizhong didn't let his elder brother change the subject!

Neither Sun nor An Zihui dared to intervene, for fear that Uncle An Li would be angry.The two of them, mother and daughter, lived a good life as soon as they arrived in the town.Although An Libo said that he was busy with business and didn't go home often, they were always served.What would they do if An Libo's business was disturbed?

"Second Uncle, I'm going to study again! I'm going out tomorrow, so don't affect my mood." An Zishu naturally wanted to help his father, and immediately took issue with An Lizhong.

An Lizhong is not afraid of his elder brother, but he is still a little weak against a nephew like An Zishu.Because An Zishu is a student, he may become a high official in the future.Anli Zhongtian is not afraid of the earth, but the third house and officials.At that moment, An Lizhong stopped talking, but walked out with a snort.

After dismissing An Lizhong, An Libo was relieved.

"Boss, I hope you remember that there is still an unmarried girl in your family! I don't care what you are like in the town, in short, you must quickly find a husband's family for your sister." Li suddenly spoke.Mrs. Li didn't care if An Libo cheated them or made money.All she knew was that if she had money, she could find a good husband's family for An Lizhen.The third child, the white-eyed wolf, is unreliable, so he can only rely on the eldest son.An Lizhen is already nineteen, and she is going to die of worry.

An Libo sweated furtively, "Mother, don't worry, I will show my little sister her husband's house as soon as the eldest man is selected." An Libo promised, patted his chest.

An Lizhen leaned against Li Shi, a little unhappy.Recently, there are always children in the village calling her an old girl who cannot be married.An Lizhen scolded them, and they came again the next day.An Lizhen has been reluctant to go out recently.An Lizhen's eyes lit up as soon as she heard that her eldest brother wanted to help her find her husband's house, she ran over shyly and hugged An Libo's arm, blinking her eyes.

The corner of An Libo's mouth twitched, this sister seems to have become ugly again recently.Forget it, anyway, when Dalang becomes an official in the future, I'm not afraid that no one will come to propose marriage.

An Zihui glanced at An Lizhen mockingly. With her appearance, she still wanted to marry a nice family.

An Libo was very happy that he passed safely this time. It seemed that he had to be more careful in the town, and he couldn't let Mrs. Sun and An Lizhong know something, it would be very bad.

An Libo here is thinking about how to continue to hide his affairs in the town, and An Ziqi on the other end is also thinking about whether he should give his good uncle a little more information?

His good uncle is too idle.Obviously, the business in the town is still good, but they want to make an idea to their house, really want to take advantage of it.Where in this world is there such a cheap thing?

An Ziqi rolled his eyes, and after a while, he smiled.

An Liji didn't know what An Ziqi was thinking, he revealed the matter about his elder brother today because he was really angry.His eldest brother has taken over everything in the family, and even after the family is separated, he still has to think about the money in the hands of his brothers outside.He didn't say everything, he just hoped that his elder brother would be more honest.

Did An Libo really get away with it?Anyway, An Lizhong took An Liji's words to heart.An Lizhong was scratching like a kitten in his heart, and he decided to find out the secret of his eldest brother.An Libo didn't know that his troubles were coming.
