Wearing the cannon fodder little koi in the imperial examination essay

After the matter was arranged, Yu Su took the second sister who was still distressed and wiped tears together, and the sister-in-law and the sister-in-law went to clean the car and the utensils on it, ready to wash and dry, and put them away for next year's New Year's Eve.

Song Xinglin saw that Aunt Su was busy, and he didn't need to chop firewood to make milk cakes, so he thought about doing what his guest ordered.

Just thinking about what to do with such a big pot of milk, and where to put it for insurance, suddenly, there was movement from outside the courtyard.

"Er Linzi, Er Linzi...Er Linzi, brothers are here to see you, hahaha Er Linzi, do you miss your brother..."

Hearing the familiar voice, seeing the familiar faces who pushed the door and walked into the yard one by one, Song Xinglin, who was previously gloomy because he couldn't tell the truth, finally had a smile on his face.

Song Xinglin hurriedly put down the work in his hands, and walked forward quickly, "Brother Bisheng, Brother Zongcai, and Brother Cen, why are you here?"

This means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be here soon, and the third brother was mentioned just now, so he is coming right now?It's also a coincidence.

Wang Cen, who was shouting first to enter the door first, heard Song Xinglin's question, he jumped over and put his foot on Song Xinglin's shoulder, laughing and joking like two brothers.

"Hey, why can't we come? Why, you kid, do you welcome your brothers to visit you?"

What kind of words are these, Song Xinglin didn't recognize them, he shook his head in a hurry, "How come?"

Wu Bisheng and Lin Zongcai, who were two steps behind, saw that their unreliable third brother was teasing the fourth brother, so the seasoned Lin Zongcai interrupted in a hurry.

"Er Linzi, don't listen to the third brother. He is deliberately teasing you. It's not the end of the year. There is a lot of inventory at home. Our third brother will send the goods to the city to deliver the goods. By the way, he wants to buy for the family. Go to the New Year's goods house."

"Oh, so it's like this..." Song Xinglin nodded to express his understanding.

Wu Bisheng on the side looked at the small courtyard rented by his brothers, but he didn't see any of his younger siblings, so he wondered, "Eh? Er Linzi, where are the younger siblings? Where's the second younger sister? Why don't you see them?"

Song Xinglin hurriedly pointed to the location of the backyard and said, "Oh, they are busy working in the backyard."

At this moment, Aunt Yu and his sister-in-law Yu Su were cleaning up their business affairs and taking them to the backyard to dry. When asked by his brothers, Song Xinglin said it casually, and while he was talking, he also called people into the house.

"My brothers all went into the house to sit down and rest for a while, and I'm going to call for someone."

Hearing Song Xinglin's words, Brother San shook his head repeatedly and said no need, "They are all brothers from our own family, so you don't have to be polite, we just asked in passing, Er Linzi, don't call them younger siblings, let them get busy first, anyway, we will sit down for a while Walk."

In fact, they came here to give dividends to their younger brother. Isn't it the end of the year? After half a year of hard work, they finally got money from the shipment, and the distribution of money is a must.

"What are you talking about? There's no reason to leave if you don't come here. Let's go. Brothers go to the house first, and we can talk after entering the house."

The brothers were polite, it was not easy to talk in the courtyard outside, and the third brother did not hesitate to follow Song Xinglin's invitation, and followed Song Xinglin into the outer room of Dongpiansha.

"Er Linzi, this is for you, this is your share of the dividend."

As soon as he entered the door, his buttocks were still warm, so Song Xinglin said he would go to the next door to boil some water and make some rough tea for his brothers to relieve fatigue. Lin Zongcai, the chief accountant, took out a pack of The broken silver stuffed into Song Xinglin's hands.

Song Xinglin was puzzled, "This is?"

Wu Bisheng and Wang Cen hurriedly answered the conversation, "Er Linzi, this is the year-end dividend, which belongs to you. We agreed a long time ago."

"Oh, that's it..." Hearing that it was a dividend, Song Xinglin nodded to express his understanding, and then looked at the third brother and asked, "Then the brothers are all divided? You didn't give me more dividends, did you?"

Seeing the doubtful eyes of his stepbrother, the three elder brothers shook their heads together, and Lin Zongcai even said, "Oh, don't worry, Er Linzi, a brother can still lie to you, money is such a good thing, Don't worry, I will never take advantage of you, if you don't believe me, the account book is at home, and you can check it yourself later."

Song Xinglin stared closely at the third brother in front of him, seeing that the calm second brother said so, he reluctantly believed it.

"Succeed, my brother will trust you for now, I hope you don't pay too much, and I will check the account book when I go back to my house. If I find out that you have paid me too much, I will not want a penny of future dividends!"

Seeing Song Xinglin's words were so deadly, but the bag of money in his hand was accepted, the third brother secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Especially Lin Zongcai, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thanks to his understanding of the temperament of the fourth child, he didn't dare to listen to the words of the eldest brother and the third child, so he secretly added money to it, otherwise, he would give this unlucky brother an excuse in the future, Pushing away the last dividend, the third brother is really ashamed.

Secretly glanced at the elder brother and the third child who couldn't help shrinking their necks and felt guilty, and gave you a look for yourself, and Song Xinglin who had put the money back in the back room and came out of the back room spoke.

"Brothers, sit at home for a while. I'll take care of this jar of milk first. I'll cook later. It's still early in the morning. You can go home after dinner."

It was obviously a normal exhortation, but Lin Zongcai and his three brothers could all hear something was wrong.

Especially the escaped Wang Cen, after hearing Song Xinglin's words, he couldn't help but look at the big vat that Song Xinglin was about to strike and ask questions.

"No, Er Linzi, this thing is very good, why do you want to dispose of it?", Is it such a waste?

The other two who didn't know why also nodded in agreement, with puzzled faces.

Song Xinglin knew that his brothers had misunderstood, he smiled angrily, did not speak, bent down to pick up the ladle that Yu Su had placed in the wooden bucket by the vat earlier, scooped up the bloated hair that was still soaking in the vat Send the dead mouse to the third brother...

The three brothers looked at the ugly thing in the ladle together, and all of them were stunned by Lao Tie.

"No, Erlinzi, what is this?"

Wu Bisheng yelled out a broken voice, and Lin Zongcai, who was frowning, also asked with concern.

"What's going on in the forest? But there are rats in the house, let this filthy thing run into the tank and ruin things? Why don't you go home and get a cat for you in the village?"

Wang Cen also nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, hold a cat and kill these nasty rats!"

Song Xinglin poured the milk from the scoop back into the tank along with the dead rats, looked at the concerned third brother, and thought about the thieves that happened to his family, the inexplicable appearance of rats in the tank, and the report to the Yamen that the officials could not find the bad guys The thing was said.

As soon as Brother San heard this, he immediately became angry, and Wang Cen even slapped the table, "Damn it, who is the bastard who doesn't have long eyes, since he dares to miss my brother!"

Wu Bisheng also clenched his fists loudly, "Don't let me catch this person, otherwise, I will crush him (her) to death."

Unlike these two, Lin Zongcai was still calm. He was silent, thought for a while, and slapped the two brothers who made harsh words. After stopping the two reckless words, Lin Zongcai looked at Song Xinglin made a decision.

"Er Linzi, the three of us are not leaving today. Didn't you say that we will go home when we buy the new year's goods tomorrow? That's right, the brothers will accompany you. Let's hurry up and do the shopping tomorrow." , strive to return home at noon tomorrow.”

It's not that I don't trust my younger brother, it's just that he's still young, no matter how capable he is, he's still alone, and now he's in school, and he looks gentle and gentle, and outsiders don't know his bad reputation in the past, just to get into school, That's not a good way to reveal your true nature.

The scoundrel who suffered from the plague probably didn't know his little brother's temperament and ability, and seeing that his brother was young, and his siblings were even younger, and the three children were at home, so he dared to bully him secretly.

Hey, isn't it that even dead mice are stuffed into the house to threaten them?
There is a kind of concern that makes my brother miss you.

Knowing that the three brothers together were no match for the younger brother, Lin Zongcai couldn't help but worry about it, and immediately decided to stay, even if it was just to frighten the thieves.

Thinking in this way, Lin Zongcai directly made such a decision, and immediately got the approval of the two still angry guys.

"Yes, yes, we are all staying, Er Linzi, don't be afraid, there are brothers here."

Song Xinglin was afraid that it was impossible to be afraid. He even waited diligently, hoping that the mouse in the dark would show up quickly so that he could take care of it.

However, it was rare for the brother to take the initiative to stay overnight, so Song Xinglin naturally had no reason to refuse, so he agreed immediately.

"Sure, it's good for the brothers to stay. By the way, we can go home together, and it will save me from having to rent another car."

"Yes, that's what you said." Brother Wang Cen nodded in approval three times.

Song Xinglin continued: "Brothers, sit down for a while. I'll go and call Yuyu later, and then I'll deal with the milk. I'll reserve a hotel by the way. Good night, you guys..."

"Hey~ You don't need to stay in the hotel. Tonight, our brothers will not go anywhere. We will just make do in your room in Erlinzi. You let the younger siblings live with the second younger sister, and the four of us live together. No, if you put together the tables and chairs in this room, you can make it through the night."

Song Xinglin didn't want to wrong his brother, and refused without even thinking about it, "How can it be, it's not summer, and the night is very cold, so it won't happen, let's stay in a hotel, I'll find one nearby..."

"No, no, no!", the third brother just kept refusing.

In the end, Lin Zongcai ignored Song Xinglin's persuasion and made the final decision.

"Okay, I'm an older brother, so listen to me. Er Linzi, it's really unnecessary to stay in a hotel. If you treat me as an older brother, you can listen to me. This tank is too heavy to move. I'll go to the big building at the gate of the city later The car shop, bring the mule carts that were stored, and the four of us will go out of the city together, find a wild grass ditch to dump, and tomorrow, it will be convenient for us to take the cart to buy new year's goods."

Lin Zongcai arranged everything together. Wu Bisheng, the eldest, and Wang Cen, the third child, couldn't stop agreeing. Song Xinglin couldn't do it either, so he could only listen to the third brother's arrangement.

While the third brother was going to the big cart shop to fetch the mule cart, Song Xinglin went to the back yard and called Yu Su who was drying and tidying up the carts. Having said that, Yu Su, who was already busy, didn't delay.

He only told Song Xinglin to go to work without worry, while he took Song Xiahe to the pier as soon as possible.

It's getting late at this hour, and she might not be able to buy fresh vegetables at Caishikou. She is going to go out of the city to the pier to see if she can still buy some fresh and tender vegetables.

After dinner, at night, Yu Su and Song Xinglin's husband and wife couldn't handle the third brother, so there was no way, Yu Su and Song Xiahe's sister-in-law were arranged by Song Xinglin to sleep in a safe back room;
Wu Bisheng and Wang Cen were arranged to sleep in a cubicle that had been repaired and had reinforced windows;
Song Xinglin and Lin Zongcai used tables, chairs and benches to temporarily build the outside room. Yu Su was still worried, and even laid two temporary beds with [-]-jin quilts to sleep;
There was nothing to say all night, and the night passed without any disturbance. The only abnormality was that the other two tenants in the courtyard, Widow Huang and Widow Yin, were not at home.

When he was still waking up in the morning, Yu Su met the landlady, Mrs. Feng, and when he said hello to the old lady, he said that he was going back to the village this afternoon to celebrate the New Year. Only then did he learn from Mrs. Feng that the two households It happened to be a coincidence that I went back to my hometown for the New Year yesterday.

At this time, Yu Su hadn't suspected that what happened in his home was actually related to someone.

Rushing home, Yu Su didn't delay at all.

Wu Bisheng and Wang Cen were invited to accompany the second younger sister to watch under the acacia tree to inform the customers, while Yu Su himself took enough money and led Song Xinglin and Lin Zongcai to the street to buy.

In the New Year’s etiquette in the southwest, wine and meat are indispensable, as well as sweets and cakes. No matter how poor the family is, there must be four types of New Year’s rituals, six types for wealthy families, eight types, ten types, or even more for wealthy families. Number, and something as long as it is an auspicious even number.

Thinking about last night, the little lord took the time to carry the third brother on his back, and secretly handed him the bag of silver that she asked her to put away. There was a full twenty taels of money in it. Yu Su happily decided to thank the three families of Wu Linwang.

In the past six months, my husband and I have been helped and taken care of by the three families. The gifts of the three families follow the eight rules, which are definitely richer than those with our own family on the surface.

Fortunately, they are familiar with the county town now, and even if they are in a hurry, Yu Su and his party are also in a hurry before noon. They have almost bought all the necessities for the New Year, and hurried home. On the way, they are still under the acacia tree The three of them found a noodle restaurant together to fill their stomachs, packed up their things, the mules and carts were full, and those with a lot of money had to go home.

Yu Su handed Song Xiahe the clothes and parcels he had packed last night, and told her to take them to the mule cart first, while he winked at Song Xinglin.

The little gentleman understood and took the initiative to watch. Yu Su hurriedly dug out the gold that was still shrunk, and then stuffed these mini boxes into the back basket, together with the money box where all the money in the house was placed, and she was going to take it home.

It is no longer safe to rent a house here. Just in case, Yu Su and Song Xinglin decided to take the gold back to the village. When they looked back, they quietly buried all the gold in the deep mountains, Song Xinglin's secret base.

In the future, unless it is a last resort, it is not a critical moment, but in a few years, they will definitely not use these.

The way back was not a short one, the cart was full of things, and the six of them had to be pulled. The mule cart was not easy, so everyone decided to start early, lest they would not be able to reach home after dark.

After checking the inside and outside of the house again and again, he greeted Mrs. Feng, Song Xinglin locked the doors and windows, pulled Yu Su and went out.
