Farmer's Notes from Another World

There are more people and more strength, and within a long time, the house will be refreshed and clean.The yard was covered with quilts, and Liu Ahma played with Xiaotuanzi.The countryside is a big place, and although the leaves are falling at this time and there is no scenery, it does not affect Xiaotuanzi's playfulness at all.

Fang Zeng and Fang Zhiyuan went to Lin Xin and Lin Zheng's family with presents. They have been away from their home for so long, and they are taking care of this house. No matter what, they have to thank them.Besides, I went to the south and brought some gifts for Lin Xin and Lin Zheng.

The Lin family looked at Fang Zeng and Fang Zhiyuan, and hurriedly welcomed them in warmly.The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the Lin family, old and young, are all busy at the tofu shop.If it wasn't just after the meal time, Fang Zeng and Fang Zhiyuan would still have to fight for nothing.Da Zhuang is already a teenager, although he is very happy to see Fang Zhiyuan come back, but he will not jump around like he did when he was a child.

Xiao Zhuang, on the other hand, is the age at which even dogs hate him. He helps out in the tofu shop every day, even if he does light work, it is boring.Now seeing Fang Zhiyuan, looking at the big and small bags in his hand, he hurried over to Fang Zhiyuan and said, "Brother Fang, you are back. Great, I can already play with you and Xiaotuanzi." While talking, he brought Fang Zhiyuan a lot of things.

Da Zhuang helped Fang Zeng take some of the things in his hand and entered the house. Lin Xin's family and Lin Zheng's family just brought water up.Fang Zeng took something and put it on the table, and greeted everyone.Then, he said to Lin Cheng: "Uncle, I went to the south this time. I brought you some special products from the south. This is lotus root powder, longan and fabric for you. You keep them. Don't tell your nephew. Be polite, otherwise, my nephew will not be happy."

Lin Cheng's family looked at these things and knew they were valuable, so they looked at their own family members.Lin Cheng was happy seeing his nephew remembering him, but he still said: "Zeng, it's not easy for you to go to the south, but you can remember us, we all know in our hearts, and everyone has taken your heart. But you went to the south to earn money, and these things seem to be valuable. I think the longan is very good, and we took it for food. We don’t need the cloth. Look at the cloth, it’s worth a lot of money.”

Fang Zeng said with a smile: "Uncle, what you said is that you are my uncle, and it is not enough for a nephew to respect a few pieces of cloth. Doesn't this make outsiders laugh at me for being stingy? Don't worry, uncle, we will gain knowledge by going to the south. I will sell some goods with me, and I will not go there in the future, it is such a rare time, of course I will pick up a lot to honor you."

Lin Cheng declined repeatedly, but finally accepted the things.Fang Zhiyuan brought a lot of things for Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang, brushes, ink, paper and inkstones, books and toys from the south, Lin Xin's family looked at them and hurriedly said: "Huzi, you are now a relative, you can't be so lavish." That's right. These things are so good, you just keep them for your own use. Otherwise, if uncle doesn't agree, how could we take advantage of your uncle and nephew like this."

Fang Zhiyuan divided the things between the big and the young, although the big and the young wanted it very much, but when they told Lin Xin's family, they hurriedly refused.Of course, Lin Xin's family didn't say anything about Fang Zhiyuan, so the things were still taken away.Because of the gift from the Fang family, the Lin family was elated inside and out. Xiao Zhuang ate the sugar cake Fang Zhiyuan gave him, and now he will not go to the tofu shop, but will go to Fang's house to find Xiaotuanzi to play with.

Lin Xin's family also felt sorry for his two children, and seeing Da Zhuang's eyes flashed a look of anticipation, he simply gave Huihui his hands and let the two young ones go to play.Of course, he also brought a large bucket of tofu and dried tofu. Knowing that they came back late, they must not have all the necessities for the New Year, so they brought a large basket of bacon and other odds and ends for Fang Zeng to take back.

Fang Zeng and Fang Zhiyuan didn't refuse, and led Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang back.Liu Ah and the others are waiting for them to have lunch. The lunch is the dumplings made by Liu Ah, and the stuffing is sauerkraut powder vermicelli with pork.

In the afternoon, Fang Zeng was busy going to the village to see who slaughtered pigs, and planned to buy half a pig for Chinese New Year.It happened to also give some food gifts to a few families that we had good friends with. Although they were not expensive, they were in their hearts anyway.Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang are very diligent, helping to dry the firewood at Fang's house, they haven't come back for so many days, the firewood is a bit wet.

Of course, taking advantage of the gap, I also ran to tease Xiaotuanzi, who provoked Xiaotuanzi: "quack" and "quack".Liu Ama didn't care about them, and took out the tangerine and peach cakes that Fang Zhiyuan and the others had brought back, and gave them to the big and small to eat.After the work was done, the big and small Zhuang pestered Fang Zhiyuan to tell him what he had seen and heard in the south.

Fang Zhiyuan was very eloquent, and the big and small were very excited when they heard it, and Liu Ah, who came with the little dumpling, was also amazed after hearing it.Looking at his nanny's broad and loving smile, Liu Zhuang's dark clouds that had settled in his heart for many days gradually dissipated a lot, and his eyes looking at Fang Zhiyuan became more tender and yearning.

After dinner, Fang Zhiyuan sent Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang back home. Seeing that Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang loved eating the dumplings made by him, Ama Liu took two big bowls for them, one for each of them.At the same time, I thought to myself, this vermicelli vermicelli stuffing is quite delicious, it absorbs water and is chewy, it seems that their family has to make some more when they have free time.

Because dinner was early, everyone was not in the mood to go to bed at this time.Fang Zeng lit a brazier, Fang Zhiyuan buried some sweet potatoes and chestnuts in the brazier, and the family sat and chatted together.

Fang Zhiyuan was always asked to tell stories in the past, and this would be fine, so Liu Ah said, "Ah Yuan, mother, I have been thinking about the story you told last time for the past few months. What else can you do?" Let me tell you the story, too, as I get older, I like to hear stories about ancient times."

Fang Zhiyuan was also thinking about how to find out Liu Ah's attitude towards shopkeeper Liu, and he didn't refuse.He smiled and said: "I really heard the story when I went to the south this time. I'll tell everyone when I'm free."

Fang Zhiyuan said slowly: "Once upon a time, there was a man who valued love and righteousness. At that time, the imperial court was recruiting soldiers, so he went to the battlefield for his relatives." Speaking of this, he raised his eyes to Liu Zhuang and Liu Amo, Seeing that Liu Zai's face has not changed, Ah Liu is a little sad, but not excited.

He went on to say: "He was lucky. He was rescued by his benefactor on the battlefield and survived. But he didn't go back to see his husband and child, but went to repay the favor first. Coincidentally, there was only one only son left in the benefactor's family. And a younger brother, the man saw it and stayed to take care of it. Then, the man was confused with the benefactor's younger brother, so he took him in as the second room. At this time, he thought of his husband and child, it might be that Na Xiao let him Feeling ashamed, he thought about entrusting someone to take over his husband's children. But the entrusting person came back and told him that his husband and children were all dead. In this way, the man can live with his benefactor's younger brother in peace of mind. The two have a child."

Fang Zeng didn't understand what he heard, he was a little worried, looked at Liu Ahmo, saw his plain face, and calmed down a little.

Ah Liu may feel that this matter is somewhat similar to his own family, so he asked, "Ah Yuan, your story is nothing, is it? It will whet your appetite."

Sure enough, Fang Zhiyuan said: "Nurse, you are so wise! The second half of this story is really exciting. After 20 years, the man became a shopkeeper, owned a field shop, and became a rich man. He helped the benefactor's son He got married and started a business, and even wanted to share half of his family property with his benefactor's son after his death. But his husband who married later quit. No matter how good his nephew is, he is not as good as his own son. Yes. When the man came here, the benefactor's son was almost a teenager, and he knew about human affairs. He had his aunt and father in his hand, and was pushed by his husband, so he went directly to the man and raped his aunt and father. old bottom."

When Fang Zhiyuan said this, he stopped and looked at everyone. Chen Mo asked: "What reason does this aunt have to hold onto his nephew? Could it be that the person who took over the man's original husband's child was bribed by his aunt? But this That's not right, if the man's original husband and children are alive, maybe the man will leave the family property to them as soon as he feels guilty."

Liu Ahmae also nodded, Fang Zhiyuan said that he likes to let them guess the story, they are used to it, even if they can guess it, they will feel proud.

Fang Zhiyuan said: "Actually, the husband married by the man later had an affair with other people when the man was gone. But that man was unwilling to admit it afterwards. The man planned to abort the pregnancy to hide it, but he happened to meet the man. , Seeing how stupid he is and how easy it is to deceive, let him be a cheap father. Now, the son who has been raised for 20 years is not his own. Cheap son out of the house."

"But it's not over yet. Just at this time, the man met an acquaintance in his hometown and learned that his husband was still alive. He was so happy that he sold his property and came back to find his original wife with money. Madam, Uncle, what do you think about the result?" Fang Zhiyuan's palms were sweating, but his face was still full of laughter.

Chen Moxian said: "It must be to find the original spouse and children, and then the family will be happy."

Liu Ama frowned, but said: "I don't think so, this guy hasn't cared about his ex-wife for 20 years, even though someone else brought false news, but if you want something sweet, why don't you come back and pay a visit. Like myself, I feel deeply how hard it is for a husband to take care of the child. Now the original husband has worked so hard to bring up the child, married him, and set up a family. At this time, the man will go back, I’m afraid Everyone will feel uncomfortable. If he has been down and down in the past 20 years, everyone can still be considerate, but if he is old and has been hurt by his husband and children over there, he will think of his original partner. And the child. It’s no wonder that the original partner and the child can remember him well, they must be thinking in their hearts, let this guy die of old age outside, and save them coming back to trouble them.”

Liu Zhuang spoke at this time, and said, "Mama, this man is coming to the door. They just hope that the man will not show up. This man has already arrived at the door of the house. If the original husband has not remarried, looking at the loving husband in the past, Can you be ruthless? It's just to make yourself sad."

Liu Amo said: "Hey, if this man is really found, how can we not let him in. No matter how much this husband hates, he has a son. If he doesn't care, his son will be scolded for being unfilial. But this life is for people, don't look at our brother as if he married a man, but this person is settled, and others can't control whether he is hot or not. Let me tell you, this original husband looks at him When the man comes back, he knows what happened to the man in the past, and he has no more feelings. Oh, when he is alone with the child, the man is working hard for others. When the man was young, did he know the original wife and the child? It's still there. Can the original partner not be afraid? What will the younger generation think of this father if they find out?"

When he said this, Liu Ahma looked at Fang Zhiyuan intentionally or unintentionally, and said as if beating him: "This man treats his husband wholeheartedly, no matter how bad it is, this husband can usually follow him Go on. But this guy doesn't take others' sincerity seriously. As long as Fu Lang is not stupid, he can't take you seriously when he thinks about it. Between husband and wife, you can't be half-hearted. Just say this guy, If he knew that her husband was gone, and then married and had children, her original husband would have to be a little bit more heart-warming towards her husband. If he was soft-hearted, he would be able to reconcile with him. But this is clearly treating his original husband as a fool, It's no wonder that the original husband can accept this tone. If I, it's okay if someone comes in, he wants to give the family property to my child, and I will treat him as a relative for the sake of money. Anyway, at such an old age If you give him a bite to eat and a room to live in, you should do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Besides, my son was raised by me, so you should kiss him or me. I will be my old lord, and I don’t want to do anything That's it."

Amo Liu went on to say: "If this guy treats my child badly, I will take a kitchen knife and die with him. In this way, my son can still collect the rest of his family property, and he will not have an unscrupulous father." Yes. Anyway, how many years can I live when I am old, why don't I vent my anger for myself. "

Fang Zhiyuan was terrified, and asked: "But if the original husband is still there, the son is dead. What will this husband do?"

Maybe Liu Ah was thinking of her son. Liu Ah took a look at Fang Zhiyuan and said, "Then if it were me, let him in, and put the tablet of my son in front of his eyes every day. Be good to him, but you have to poke him every day." Poke his heart. Make him feel more guilty, make him unable to find another brother to stay, and let him cut off his children and grandchildren. Otherwise, how can I be the only one who remembers my son when he comes to this world. But, I heard Go, I think this story is not good. This man will only let others enjoy the blessings, give the husband and children the hardships, and finally trouble the suffering and troubled husband and children to take care of them, is this still a matter of love and righteousness?"

Chen Mo might feel that this topic is not good, so he hurriedly asked, "Hu Zi, what happened in the end?"

Fang Zhiyuan said: "In the end, after the man came back happily, he found out that his husband had gone. The son took the whole family to another place, leaving him alone in his hometown. For the rest of his life, he was alone. Life."

Amo Liu relieved her anger and said, "Yes! Such a person should be allowed to live like this. Sure enough, God still has eyes."
