C164 Good brother
Wu Liang opened his eyes. The one who died was not him, it was the northern soldier.
Song Zhixiao, who was behind him, seemed to be standing right next to him.
Returning to the army camp, just as Academy Officer had said, there was Red Braised Meat and White Bun.
After a bloody battle, it seemed like the most beautiful thing in the world to be able to come back and eat a meal with his brothers.
Wu Liang rubbed his rice bowl against Song Zhixiao's side and asked:
"Did you hear what I said to Academy Officer?"
"What did he say?" Song Zhixiao was suspicious.
"I didn't hear it, then why did you save me?" There was only injustice and no grace between the two of them. The only thing that could barely be considered as friendship was the fact that they were beaten together in violation of military discipline.
There didn't seem to be anything to praise.
"Shouldn't it be saved?" Song Zhixiao's words were concise and short.
"..." "It should be!" If Song Zhixiao had not intervened, he would have died here today.
Song Zhixiao faintly glanced at him, as if to say, "Since it's what you ought to do, what are you wasting your breath on?"
Wu Liang could not help but feel embarrassed, but he quickly patted Song Zhixiao's shoulder and said: "Alright, no matter what, I am the one surnamed Wu who owes you my life today, I will remember this favor. We brothers are also not narrow-minded and ungrateful people. From today onwards, you, Song Zhixiao, will be my, Wu Liang's, brother. "
As he spoke, he knocked on the bowl, and spoke to the people around him: "Remember, from now on, Song Zhixiao is my brother, so he is your brother. Since we are all good brothers, don't make things difficult for him anymore, understand?"
The group of thugs had already heard about what happened on the battlefield from Wu Liang on their way back. They had always trusted Wu Liang, so they naturally did not doubt his decision. At this time, they agreed with Wu Liang and directly called him "Brother Song."
With this, Song Zhixiao became the one who felt uncomfortable.
He answered somewhat frantically.
Wu Liang even specially scooped another bowl of Red Braised Meat and shared half with him.
Ever since he was found guilty, he had never felt such good intentions.
The next morning, Madame Song and Li delivered a dog-skin cushion with a cloth covering to their daughter's room.
An old piece of blue cloth, made into a square cloth, was sent to Mian Niang's room along with the knee guard.
"Although it's an old item, you still have to properly cherish it. Don't not take it seriously."
She didn't seem to have slept well. Her dark circles were very severe.
Mian Niang put down the work in her hands and took the mat and the knee guards. She could not help but ask if she had stayed up all night to make the cloth cover.
"I can even do such a small amount of needlework. Mother, there's really no need for you to stay up all night."
"How long can it take to do such a small task? I didn't sleep well last night because I was thinking about the matters in the county."
Song Zhien was just lighting a fire, but when he heard about what was happening in the town, he immediately perked up his ears.
Right now, he firmly remembered the things that the people of Mei Family had done. If it wasn't for the fact that he was a nobody and he was afraid that he would be dragged into the Sis A, he might not have been able to go to the Mei Family to cause a ruckus.
Mian Niang glanced at him, then smiled at his mother: "Rumors say a killing knife, as long as it's up to fate, if you can't find a chance, then add some firewood."
This was something that she had deeply experienced. In less than a year, Mian Niang seemed to have experienced much more than what he had experienced for the past ten or so years.
They had to be honest with their family, otherwise, the three of them wouldn't be able to live a peaceful life.
"How do I add this firewood?"
Madame Song Li still had no idea. She pointed at her eyelids and said, "These eyelids always dance, I'm always worried that something will happen again."
She wanted to seek advice from Mian Niang, but it was not because she was deeply convinced by her daughter, but rather because there was no one else to discuss it with.
If there was a second person who could come up with such an idea, she would definitely not let Mian Niang do it, and take such a huge risk.
"The right eye jumps into trouble, the left eye jumps into wealth, the one you're jumping into is the left eye, I'm making tofu today, our family is going to have money to pay for it, it's a good thing."
Mian Niang comforted her mother.
Madame Song Li was skeptical. "No matter what, it's better to be careful."
Mian Niang thought for a while and said, "Mother, if you're worried, go out and visit them in the day, don't stay alone at home."
However, Wu Niang being targeted by the Zheng Family's five wives, must mean that she could not take care of herself. Furthermore, that Mr. Jiang was a member of the Prince Rong's Mansion, no matter what he came back for, Wu Niang would definitely not swagger through the market like she did in the past.
It was just that he didn't know if that Mr. Jiang was accurate in his words, or if he really had the ability to find Ah Gou.
He had also forgotten to tell A-Gou about his dad's death. A-Gou would definitely not be able to take it if he found out about it.
Thinking about this, Mian Niang's heart was filled with regret.
"Does that mean there's something wrong?"
Hearing Mian Niang's words, Madame Li could not help but feel anxious.
"No, it's just that your imagination is always running wild when you're at home. You can go out and hang out with other people and talk to them, so you won't feel so annoyed."
"Then I won't go, I might as well stay at home. What if my heart is annoyed and I reveal it again?"
"..." "Actually, I feel that even if the people from the village knew about it, they wouldn't blame us for what we did." Mian Niang said.
Madame Song and Li shook their heads. Even though they were forced to secretly touch her, Mrs. Song and Li could still feel uneasy, afraid that others would despise them if they found out.
"Then stay at home, but don't let your thoughts run wild."
Madame Song Li looked at her daughter, telling hyposome to work hard, then returned to her own house.
There were only the two siblings left in the room. hyposome coiled themselves around Mian Niang and kept on asking him what was going on.
Mian Niang never intended to hide it from him, as it was impossible to hide something like this from him, so there was nothing to hide.
He then told her everything that he had done.
After the child heard this, he laughed and said, "Sis A, I know why mother disapproves of doing such a thing."
"Why?"
"Why else? This is disgraceful. The Book of Virtue does not encourage this."
"Hmph hmph, your Book of Virtue says that Daniel is right, but it doesn't say what one should do if they meet those unreasonable people! What's more, the Book of Virtue did not tell you to take the stone and smash the woman, but instead, you went and smashed the Mayer's disease. "
Speaking of this, the child's heart trembled. It took a long time for him to speak. I did not expect that something like this would implicate you in the end, Sis A. I almost lost my life. "
Mian Niang tsk-tsked twice, and said: "Oh, that's fine, I still know that it's very rare to do something like this, and that's what goes up, but we won't mention this anymore, but you have to remember, in the future you can't be so reckless. If you have any more injuries, how do you want Mother to live, and how am I supposed to live?"
"I can't stand it, they bullied our family and made us look like this. That Mayer's disease, brother treated her so well. It was one thing for her to be heartless and ungrateful, but she still had to turn him around. I heard from mister that the northwest is in a bitter cold state, and the battlefield is filled with merciless swords and sabers. "
"Be quiet, don't let Mother hear you."
Mian Niang walked to the door and stuck his head out, there was no sound from the main house, only then did she walk back in relief, nodded at his brother's head, and berated him in a low voice: "What kind of words are these, you can't speak nonsense, and even more so, you can't speak nonsense at home! Also, A'ge will be fine. Five years later, he will definitely come back safely. We have to look forward to his good, hope that he has not been ill for the past five years, and that he is safe and sound. "
As they continued to talk, Mian Niang couldn't help but shed tears. She didn't allow her brother to say such words, but she was also worried in her heart, because Ah'ge was a member of the Distribution. He was sinned and would be the person with the lowest status in the army camp.
Thinking about it for a while, Mian Niang could not help but hate the Prince Rong, Young Master of the Gu family, and the family of Mayer's disease once again.
In the end, he could not help but vent his anger at his own lack of virginity. If he had broken it, then so be it. Even if he died, as long as he got rid of Gu Han, his family would not suffer a calamity.
The siblings looked at each other before turning their heads away, not wanting to let the other see them cry.
"Sis A, don't worry, I will definitely study properly and get my name out of the test. Once I become a big official, I will be able to overturn Ah Ge's case."
Mian Niang used her sleeve to wipe the corners of his eyes, "En" said: "Sis A believes in you, I believe that you will definitely study hard, and that you will definitely become a good student in the future. It's just that I don't need to learn from the Elementary Scholar of Mei Family, my eyes are only filled with fame and benefits, everything I learned has gone down the drain, even my roots have gone astray. hyposome. "
She held onto her brother's shoulder, looked at his thin cheeks and said, "To be polite while reading is not just for the sake of becoming a rich official. The most important thing is to have good character. Don't look at the rumors spread by the Sis A right now, it's only because the Mayer's disease is going overboard and we can't fight them off, that's why we have to do it, but, don't talk about others normally, don't spread rumors, do you understand? "
Song Zhien nodded his head: "I know, Sis A, teacher has taught me that: 'Immerse your body with Qi', if it doesn't work, then it can be said that I have already experienced it. Immersion of the Zen, skin to endure, can not be said, can be said to have been far. "
Mian Niang stroked her hair and said that she was good, the two siblings continued with their work.
After breakfast, the siblings walked out of the house together. Mian Niang was driving the carriage in front, with her knees tied to it, and the dog-skin mattress on her knees made him feel warm after sitting for a while, and when she thought of filigree's good intentions, Mian Niang felt her heart turn hot and hot as well. What made her even more happy was that her mother was now willing to talk to her.
Song Zhien sat at the back of the carriage. The village where Mian Niang was selling tofu today was on the way to school, so he could get a ride on the carriage.
The siblings climbed over the mountain, but they were blocked.
Jiang Ting, who was dressed in coarse hemp and wearing a bamboo hat stood in the middle of the road with a red horse behind him. He coughed lightly and said to Mian Niang: "female mother, your brother probably won't believe me."
Song Zhixiao, who was behind him, seemed to be standing right next to him.
Returning to the army camp, just as Academy Officer had said, there was Red Braised Meat and White Bun.
After a bloody battle, it seemed like the most beautiful thing in the world to be able to come back and eat a meal with his brothers.
