Aotian the domesticated miniature dragon

Zeng Hongmei took the broken silver and said with a smile, "What a big piece of silver."

The diners next to him also watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, so they booed and said: "If you can't find it, you can't find it. It will be fine if it is a silver ticket."

Zeng Hongmei suppressed a smile, and took out a coin to weigh the silver.This piece of broken silver weighed three qian, she took the silver, took out two strings of money and counted fifty little companions to pile on the table, said: "Auntie take it, now I have change, go out and buy something I don’t need to go to your house to ask you for money.”

Lu Baozhen originally wanted to play tricks and take advantage of it, but who knew that he was humiliated, his face turned blue and white with anger, he put away a pile of copper coins and dragged a few children, and left without looking back.

Looking back from Jin Shu's still reluctant to let go, this journey made him a little distraught, and Lu Qianshan's smiling face was in front of his eyes and mind.

Lu Baozhen was humiliated, but she didn't dare to shout out, nor did she dare to let Lu Zhangshi know.When Mrs. Lu Zhang asked, she just said that she went there to have a look. The business was really good, and they had a meal there.

Lu Zhang frowned and said, "Can you still let you eat for nothing?"

Lu Baozhen forced a smile and said, "They let it go, but we can't really just stop giving money."

Mrs. Lu Zhang snorted, turned to Yinshu and asked, "Yinshu, did you enjoy your lunch?"

Cong Yinshukuang nodded, "It's very fragrant and delicious, and I ate a lot of meat. The little sister-in-law said that I can eat it every day to keep my stomach full."

Lu Baozhen's face darkened for a moment, and she said, "That's just a polite remark." She was afraid that her son would be fooled, so she slapped Cong Yinshu's ass, "Go, go and play with your brothers."

Mrs. Lu Zhang glanced at her and didn't say anything, but scolded Lu Guangming's family again in her heart.

In the evening, Lu Guanghui's family came back with many gifts.As soon as he entered the door, Lu Guanghui yelled: "Father, mother, do you know that Lu Guangming set up a restaurant with the outside of the village?"

Mrs. Lu Zhang is staring at Zhao's pancakes. In the past few days when my daughter is here, the children must eat well. Pancakes are indispensable every night.There is also lard and chopped green onion in this pancake, which is delicious, and I can't wait to eat a few.

Mrs. Zhao baked ten cakes, each weighing about a catty.It's just that this white flour cake can't reach the mouths of my children, let alone myself.

Mrs. Lu Zhang stacked the baked scallion pancakes and cut them twice, put them in a basket and carried them into the house. Hearing Lu Guanghui's words, he said, "What are you calling? Are you envious of someone opening a restaurant? Let me tell you, Don’t go to others one by one to make do with them, and don’t let the villagers poke your back.”

Lu Guanghui carried the big and small bags to the main house, and asked Mrs. Wang to secretly hide a box of snacks in his own house. He said, "Of course I won't make do with it, but someone invited me over there for a bowl today. Haggis soup, ouch, it’s so fresh. Mother, let’s buy some haggis stew too?”

Mrs. Lu Zhang scolded: "What haggis are you eating? Poor ghosts who have no money eat offal! Can't you buy two catties of meat with that money? Go and clean up, and you are still waiting for someone to invite you to eat?"

Dinner is still stewed pork with cabbage and potatoes, stewed potatoes with eggplant, a plate of pickles and a plate of miso, and the inseparable green onions and radishes on the table.

Half of the cake was placed on the man's table, and the other half was distributed by Lu Zhang.A cake is cut into four pieces, and this stack is 20 yuan.Mrs. Lu Zhang kept two yuan for herself, three yuan for each of the three daughters, and two yuan for each of the granddaughters brought back by the daughter. In the end, there was one piece left. After looking around, he gave it to Wang who was watching eagerly.As for Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Sun and their daughters, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Zhang acted as if they hadn't seen them.After distributing the pancakes, they divided up the newly posted pancakes today. As for Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Sun and their children, they could only eat the cold pancakes left over from yesterday.

The dishes with meat were also distributed by Mrs. Lu and Zhang. There was a large piece of stewed and rotten pork in the bowls of several daughters and granddaughters.Mrs. Wang was not to be outdone, seeing that Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Zhang didn't share the meat with her, she simply took a piece from her chopsticks and stuffed it directly into her mouth. Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Zhang were so angry that she kept scolding her.

Wang smiled, took another spoonful of broth, put it in his own bowl, and ate it with pancakes.

As for Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Sun, they didn't dare to stick their chopsticks into the dish at all, they just ate the stewed eggplant and pickled vegetables with miso in front of them.

While eating, Cong Yinshu talked about how delicious the mutton he ate at noon today, how delicious the soup was, how delicious the soup was, and even Zhou's pancakes were praised by him.

Lu Zhang's expression was extremely bad when he heard that, and Lu Guanghui continued, "It smells delicious to me, but unfortunately I can't buy it if I don't have money. If I have money, I will buy a jar and give it to my parents to taste."

Lu Zhang said: "I don't dare to eat the food cooked by their family, for fear of spoiling my stomach."

Lu Guanghui hehe said: "I'm not afraid, I've been eating it for five or six years, and it's not bad."

Mrs. Lu Zhang fell backward in anger, but she couldn't beat people across the table, so she just said, "Even if you eat, you can't keep your mouth shut!"

Naturally, Lu Guanghui couldn't keep his mouth shut. Ever since his own father said that he wanted to separate himself, he was even more troubled, "I also know that the elder sister went to eat today and bought a can of mutton for thirty cents. I said that the eldest sister , why don’t you eat meat by yourself and don’t want to bring it back for your parents to taste? You come back so many times a year, which time your parents didn’t make big bags for you to bring back? What delicious food is there at home? Let my second brother and third brother carry it for you, why don't you know how to buy something delicious for mother?"

These words also touched Lu Zhangshi's heart. She said that she was just angry when she said that she was afraid of eating it, but if someone bought it for her, would she really stop eating it?So he glanced at the eldest daughter with some emotion, and said, "Thirty cents a can? A catty of meat is only ten cents, and this can has two catties of meat?"

Lu Baozhen smiled dryly, "No, it only weighs half a catty, and it's full of potatoes, radishes, beans, etc..."

"Just sell it for [-] Wen? How about stealing money??" Lu Zhang said in his mouth, but he thought in his heart that it was so expensive that someone would buy it. How delicious would that be?

Lu Baozhu also said: "That's right, eldest sister went to eat and didn't know how to bring some back for parents to taste. Mom, I'll go buy some for you to taste tomorrow."

Lu Zhang said: "Don't eat! With that money, you can buy me a piece of meat, and I will stew it for you to eat."

Shouted from the silver tree, "I don't want stew, I want that mutton. Mom, I want that mutton!!"

Lu Baozhen said angrily: "What are you going to eat? Can you eat that kind of expensive food every day? You eat your food honestly, and then you yell that you won't have to eat pork tomorrow!"

Cong Yinshu pouted, silently picking at the pork and cabbage in the bowl.He is not rare to eat this, he often eats it when he is at home, and it has become a good thing to come here to eat pork.There are points for just a few pieces of meat, even if they are all given to him, he can finish them all!

Lu Xiuxiu didn't speak, but she was also thinking about how delicious the mutton would be.She licked her lips, looked at the eldest sister, then at the second sister, wondering if she could have a meal too.Eating it secretly without letting her mother know about it will save her mother from feeling uncomfortable and scolding others.

Moreover, she has lived there for six years, and she also knows that Zhou's cooking is really delicious, and she is not used to eating the food here after she comes back.Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Sun always stare at Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Zhang every time they cook, and they will be scolded for adding a little more oil, so there is no oil star in this dish.But living there is different, the oily Mr. Zhang over there is also watching, but let more, every meal is fragrant with oil, and the food is delicious.

It would have been great if she hadn't yelled about Lu Qianshan stealing rabbit legs. If she hadn't yelled, they would still be living there now, and every meal would still be good, and they would still be able to eat the supposedly delicious food. Haggis Soup and Crock Pot Lamb...

Thinking of this, Lu Xiuxiu couldn't help swallowing, holding the scallion pancake that she ate so rarely in her hand made her feel boring.

Mrs. Zhao took care of the people in the main house to rest. When she came back to the house, she saw several children eating scallion pancakes. She was startled and asked, "Where did you get the scallion pancakes?"

Lu Guangfu said: "I secretly hid two pieces in my pocket, and the third child also hid two pieces, so I know you and the children won't be able to eat this cake." He said, pointing to the small piece of cake left next to him, "Anyway, have a taste."

Zhao's tears came down, she took a bite of the cake, tore off most of it and stuffed it into the man's mouth.The family members ate the hidden scallion pancakes, and the corners of their eyes were wet.

"It's a good life..." Mrs. Zhao chewed the cake, wiped away tears, and said, "I'm so scared all day long, I can't sleep well if I don't have enough to eat. His father, you can see how well Lu Guangming's family is doing now. Wang Jinzhu back then He and the village head's family helped their family, and they brought those two families with them if they had any money to make. It's a relationship, although you and their family have five clothes, but you are still cousins ​​anyway."

Lu Guangfu sighed, and said: "That's something that can't be helped. If our mother is like this, can someone help us?"

Lu Jinlin looked at her parents and said, "Father, mother, can't we get separated? I heard that my grandfather wanted to separate my fourth uncle that day. The fourth uncle was not happy and had a fight, but I want to separate." Yes. I don’t expect uncle and uncle and elder brother to be officials and take care of us, I just want to live a normal life.”

Lu Guangfu opened his mouth, and finally heaved a heavy sigh, "Silly girl, parents don't separate the family, let's separate, what do you want others to think of us?"

Lu Jinlin lowered her eyes in disappointment.

Mrs. Zhao also sighed straight away, and said: "It would be great if I were like the one from the fourth family. I am skinny and shameless, but I can make myself something delicious and delicious, and I can also let the children eat something. It's a pity that she is not that kind of person, Mrs. Wang was scolded by Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Zhang as lazy and greedy, so she just ignored it.But if she was scolded by Mrs. Wang, she would be ashamed and wish to die.But just working every day like this doesn't get a good look from Mrs. Lu Zhang.On weekdays, he would be scolded a few times for nothing, and if something went wrong, he would be so scolded that he would hardly be able to lift his head.

It's the same with the Sun family. They want to separate their families and live their own lives.The adults in the family are in their prime, and they are all hardworking. Even if they are purged and left the house, they will not work harder than now.But Lu Guangcai also said that his parents are not separating the family, and they must not bring up the matter of family separation, otherwise the word "unfilial" will be suppressed, and the family will have no way to survive.

The business of Xiangbaili restaurant has been good these days, with at least three taels of silver in every day, which surprised Zhou and Lu Guangming, but they became more motivated.

Lu Qianshan asked Lu Guangming to order some palm-sized jars. After taking them home and washing them, he taught Zhou and Lu Guangming to fry chili meat sauce.This meat sauce also uses his special seasoning, which is spicy and delicious when fried. Dig a spoonful and spread it on the pancakes to eat. The people who eat it are sweating profusely and have an appetite.

Lu Qianshan made three flavors of sauce, one with mutton, one with pork, and one without meat.The ones with meat are five renminbi a can, and the ones without meat are three renminbi. You can eat several meals if you save this food.And now it's cold, a can of chili meat sauce can be stored for a long time, and it's okay to eat slowly.Even if it is hot, it can be stored for ten days and a half months, which is the favorite of those merchants.

Lu Guangming bought two hundred small jars and filled them with [-] jars of mutton sauce, [-] jars of pork sauce, and [-] jars of ordinary hot sauce.Red paper was pasted on the jar, and there were crooked characters written by Lu Guangming on it.He has read books, but he can't read well, but he can still write and recognize simple characters.Even the Zhou family and a few children can actually know some characters.This is already quite powerful in the village.

The hot sauce was put away in the restaurant, and there were several bowls filled with uncanned hot sauce for people to taste.

This hot sauce is obviously more popular than the crock pot lamb. A passing businessman tasted it and thought he would be rounded.However, Lu Qianshan planned to operate in the long run, and only sold him thirty cans of mutton, thirty cans of pork and ten cans of ordinary.If you want more, then put down the deposit and set a date to get it.

It was busy here, and a timid little girl came to the door.

Seeing her, Zeng Hongmei hurriedly said, "Jin Lin? Why are you here? Just you?"

Lu Jinlin nodded, pulled her ill-fitting padded jacket awkwardly, and asked, "Sister-in-law, is brother Shanshan here?"

Zeng Hongmei said: "Come in quickly, you brother Shanshan is in the kitchen." She said, and brought Lu Jinlin in, "What are you looking for Shanshan?"

Lu Jinlin's eyes were red, she tried not to cry, and said, "I just want to ask brother Shanshan something."

Hearing her voice, Lu Qianshan poked his head out from the kitchen.He has no prejudice against the children of Lu Guangfu and Lu Guangcai's family over there. When their family was ruled by the Lu Zhang family, these children also secretly helped their family with work, such as collecting some firewood or beating some pigs Grass or something.It's a pity that their parents couldn't stand up, and these children were ruined.

"Come in, sister-in-law, serve Jin Lin a bowl of soup." Lu Qianshan beckoned to Lu Jinlin.

Lu Jinlin quickly shook her head and said, "I don't drink soup, I'm not hungry, I came here after eating."

Lu Qianshan smiled and said, "Your family also eats in the morning? Didn't you eat it? It's just a bowl of soup. Come and sit down, it's warm here." He took Lu Jinlin to the corner of the kitchen, let her sit on the bench against the fire wall, and asked softly , "You said you wanted to ask me something? What are you asking?"

Lu Jinlin couldn't help crying, she said: "Brother Shanshan, I, I want my parents to separate from my grandparents, do you have a solution?"

Lu Qianshan wiped away tears for Lu Jinlin, and asked, "How do you want to separate the family? Do your parents and brothers agree? How do you want to live after the separation?"

Lu Jinlin shook her head and said, "My parents are working too hard. They do all the housework. My father still has to farm the land and go out to help with the labor. All the money he got back was given to my milk. But what should I eat?" Things, my grandma never gave it to my parents, nor to us. Why does my grandma still look down on us after we have done so much?"

Lu Qianshan listened to her cry quietly, and Zhou who was next to her heard it, and couldn't help but shed tears.It's really hard to make a living under the Lu Zhang family, as if being pressed down by a mountain, with no end in sight.

Zeng Hongmei came over with a bowl of soup and a pancake for Lu Jinlin.Lu Jinlin didn't dare to answer, but just shook her head.

Lu Qianshan stuffed the soup bowl and pancakes into her hands, and said, "Your sister-in-law is giving you soup, and she's not an outsider. Eat some first, and wait until you're full."

Lu Jinlin took a sip of the hot soup, and couldn't stop crying, "I, I've never had such a delicious soup."

Lu Qianshan waited patiently for her to finish the soup and pancakes, and asked, "Jin Lin, your family, I mean you and your parents, can you make the decision?"

Lu Jinlin looked up at him, her watery eyes were red, "What?"

Lu Qianshan repeated the question and said: "If you can be the master of your parents, your family will have a better life in the future, if you can't..."

"But, but I'm a girl." Lu Jinlin never imagined the day when she could be the home of her parents.

Lu Qianshan said: "Your grandma is also a woman, and your aunts are also women. Do you think they can manage the family? Your sister-in-law is a woman, and she is half of the family in our family."

Zhou added: "Although your brother Shan is a little brother, he has also become the other half of the family."

Lu Jinlin was stunned. In her small head, it seemed that there was no concept of letting a sister-in-law, a younger brother, or a daughter be the head of the family without parents. "Aren't aunt and uncle in charge of the family?"

Zhou said: "Of course whoever has the ability will be in charge. Your uncle and I are not as capable as your sister-in-law and your brother Shanshan."

Lu Jinlin took a deep breath, these words refreshed her three views.

Lu Qianshan looked at the dry and thin little girl in front of him, and secretly sighed.In this patriarchal environment, it is even more difficult for women to get ahead, and it is the younger brother who is even more difficult than women.A little brother like this can work and have children, but in the eyes of many people, the little brother is even more despicable. No one from a rich family will marry a little brother. They always feel that marrying a brother is inferior to others.

But he doesn't have this idea, in his eyes, everyone in this world is just... that's it.

Lu Qianshan touched Lu Jinlin's withered and yellow hair, and said: "Why don't you go back and think about it first, or discuss it with your family. It's good that you have this idea, it proves that you have the drive to live a good life, even if we split it up in the future The family will not complain. But what about your parents? Their thoughts are more important, if you can't convince your parents, this division... is basically impossible."

Lu Jinlin clenched her fists hard and said, "Brother Shanshan, I, I will think about it carefully. You wait for my good news!" After she finished speaking, she ran out, ran a few steps and came back, giving Lu Qianshan a hard bow bow.

"They are all poor children." Zhou wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "We are living a good life now, but your second uncle and third uncle... well, I am used to it, and the two of them are really hardworking."

Lu Qianshan said indifferently: "You live your own life, and you also make your own way. If you don't want to live a better life, there is nothing you can do. We can't worry about this kind of thing for them. Mother, don't be too sad. "

Mrs. Zhou nodded and continued to work.

Zhong Yulin was in Lu Qianshan's arms. Hearing what he said, he also became thoughtful.He used to always think about his brothers and Le, after all, they all have the same surname, and he didn't want to make too much embarrassment.But now it is me who is unlucky, this may be the result of my step by step retreat.

Shanshan said that the road was made by himself.There is only one road ahead of him, and that is to ascend the throne.This road is destined to be difficult, lonely, and full of blood.He can no longer give in. Today's concession is a sign of weakness, and it will sacrifice more people.And he will be accompanied on the road in the future, she must let Shanshan accompany him!So before Shan Shan is willing to walk with him, at least he can pave a way for Shan Shan!

Thinking of this, the little guy was full of energy and danced in Lu Qianshan's arms.

Lu Qianshan: ...

He stuck his finger into his bosom and poked it, wondering if this little thing ate something wrong, is he going to the toilet?

"I don't go to the toilet!" The ambition was almost discouraged by this sentence, Xiaolong cub hugged the white jade-like finger that came in angrily, and bit hard twice.He was so pissed off, he was thinking about the bright road, and this little brother actually asked him if he could go to the toilet!

At night, Hongjuan talked about what happened at Lu Datian's house again.In two days, Lu Baozhen wants to take her eldest son to the county town to find her eldest brother Lu Guangzeng, and find a rich and docile daughter-in-law from Jinshu for her eldest son.

Lu Qianshan just laughed when he heard this, thinking that Lu Baozhen is too good at dreaming.She only thinks about beautiful things, and she doesn't think about whether the daughter of a rich family can take a fancy to her eldest son.

After Hongjuan finished speaking here, she also talked about Lu Jinlin's state today.On weekdays, Lu Jinlin has no sense of existence at all, just like the second Zhao family.But today, she pulled on Sun's two sons and secretly talked about being in charge.

After listening to Lu Qianshan, he became a little interested in this little girl, Lu Jinlin, because Lu Jinlin never mentioned him from the beginning to the end, probably because she was afraid that others would be sloppy and sell him out, which would cause trouble for him instead.

If the little girl could really do something, he would be more than willing to help.

The eldest son of the Sun family, Lu Qianfeng, is 12 years old, and the youngest son, Lu Qianling, is eight years old, but this eight-year-old son is half a head shorter than Yuan Bao, who is also eight years old, and is equally thin.

Lu Jinlin just found the two of them, and hid in the house after finishing work, whispering "rebellious" things like separating the family.

"I want to split up," Lu Qianfeng said in a gruff voice, "Second aunt and mother, and second uncle and father, it's all too hard. Grandma doesn't care about us at all, and grandpa only cares about uncle and fifth uncle. The fourth uncle who quit has a better life than us. If there is a chance to separate, I would like to."

Lu Qianling is also willing, he is always bullied by Yuan Bao, but he can't beat Yuan Bao even if he is always hungry.And no matter whether he can beat him or not, whenever Yuan Bao cries, he is always the one who gets scolded.

The fire of hope was ignited in the eyes of several children. If they want to separate the family, they must first convince their parents.If the parents don't agree, it doesn't matter how they make trouble.Lu Qianfeng said: "I'm already twelve, and I'm going to talk about marriage in a few years. I don't want my daughter-in-law to be called around by grandma, who can't eat enough or keep warm. I, I must convince my parents!"

"Me too!" Lu Qianling clenched his fists.

Lu Jinlin nodded and said: "I don't want my grandma to marry me casually. I heard that Liu Zi's grandparents sold his sister to someone else to be a concubine. The old man is over 50 years older than his grandparents." Big. I'm afraid... I thought, let's try to convince our parents first, and then see if we can secretly save some money."

"Saving money?" Lu Qianfeng opened his eyes wide, "But, how do we save money?"
