Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

A man on the street heard Lu Fanghai shouting his name, and in panic he ran away without even turning back.

Seeing two grown men chasing each other on the street, many pedestrians and vendors were unable to avoid them and were pushed away, which attracted a lot of scolding.

Finally, at a dead end, Lu Fanghai blocked Lu Dawei.

"Run, little brat. You've never been able to outrun me before. I'm letting you run."

With a ferocious look on his face, Lu Fanghai pushed Lu Dawei into the corner and slapped him on the head.

"Hey, Brother Lu, don't hit me, don't hit me. I didn't know it was you!"

Lu Dawei shrank his head, hunched over and leaned against the wall, raising his hands above his head to protect it.

He defended himself by saying, "I saw you were wearing the uniform of an official, and I thought you were coming to arrest me. I couldn't tell the difference, so I ran away like that."

Lu Fanghai snorted and pushed his hand away.

"Grandpa thought you had swallowed my money and didn't dare to acknowledge me."

Lu Dawei raised his head and laughed dryly: "How could that be possible? Brother Lu is so brave and powerful. If I coveted your things and was caught by you, I would not be able to survive. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"Hehe." Lu Dawei said, "It's just that I haven't seen Brother Lu come to visit for a long time since I came back, and something happened at home, so I had no choice..."

Lu Fanghai slapped him on the head again: "Good boy, have you spent all your money?"

"No, no." Lu Dawei said hurriedly:

"Brother Du, what do you think of me, Lao Lu? Not long after I came back, my short-lived father became seriously ill, so I had to exchange some silver for medicine for him."

Lu Dawei sighed, looking a little depressed.

"I spent a lot of money, but it didn't work. The doctor said that his body was too weak, and even if he was treated with the best ginseng, it wouldn't make up for it. He must have been unlucky, and he died before I could show my filial respect to him."

Hearing this, Lu Fanghai took a step back and stopped pressing him so hard.

"I heard you say the other day that you still have an old father and a weak brother at home. Now that your father is gone, what about your brother..."

Lu Dawei looked even more depressed, lowered his head and said softly:

"Not long after I joined the army, my mother caught a cold and we had no money to see a doctor, so my brother sold himself and became a servant in a wealthy family."

"Later, he was leading a horse for the young master of that family. The horse went mad and dragged him to death. When the tragic news came, my mother's condition, which had just improved a little, worsened and she died with him."

Lu Fanghai looked at the man in front of him with red eyes, opened his mouth, but said nothing.

A hemp rope breaks at the thinnest part, and misfortune only strikes the unfortunate.

At this moment, any words of comfort would be pale, and he reached out and patted Lu Dawei on the shoulder.

Lu Dawei raised his head, wiped his tears, looked at him and said:

"I'm fine, Brother Lu. Fortunately, my father survived until I came back, so I could see him off to the end."

Lu Fanghai nodded heavily and patted his shoulder again.

"As long as you don't spend it recklessly, if it's gone, it's gone. Don't take it to heart."

"Brother Lu, do you need money now? At the beginning, we sold our things for more than 100 taels in total. Although some of it was spent on my father's medical treatment and funeral, it is not all used up. If you want, I will go and get it for you."

Lu Dawei said.

Lu Fanghai was delighted. He thought he had no money left, but he still had some. He nodded and said:

"I happened to have something to do last night and owed someone a hundred taels of silver. I'm wondering how much you have left. Let's split it between us."

"Brother Lu, what did you do to deserve so much money? I should have 50 or 60 taels of silver. You got most of the loot from the battlefield, so I'll give it all to you."

After a pause, Lu Dawei continued, "If we weren't in a hurry to sell it, I'm afraid we could have gotten more money."

Lu Fanghai pondered and said, "It's okay. You don't have to give it all to me. Since you spent some, we can split it 30% and 70% and I'll take 70%."

Lu Dawei nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll give it to you when I get back. But someone who came with me is injured and is still lying in the clinic in front. He will be well soon. He should be able to go back in two or three days. I'll bring the money back to you then."

"Oh? Your brother is injured? Since he is your brother, he is also my brother. Let's go and see him together."

Having said that, Lu Fanghai started to pull him away. At first he was a little reluctant, but then he thought it was not so easy to get rid of him, so he led the way.

Seeing the door of Jishiditang, Lu Fanghai couldn't help laughing and patted Lu Dawei on the shoulder and said:

"What a coincidence! It must be God's will that I watch over you. This morning, my wife and I came here to see a doctor."

Lu Dawei asked in confusion, "But is my sister-in-law feeling unwell? I went out of town this morning and didn't see her."

Lu Fanghai chuckled: "It's nothing serious, it's just that the diagnosis was that the baby is pregnant."

"Oh, that's such a great event, and I haven't congratulated Brother Lu yet." Lu Dawei smiled and bowed.

Lu Fanghai just kept smiling foolishly, and the two of them walked into Jishidiang hand in hand.

Lu Dawei stopped in front of the hall and asked Lu Fanghai to wait outside for a while, saying that he was worried that his brother was changing the medicine, so he went to check on him first.

Lu Fanghai did not suspect anything and stood there, watching Doctor Wang's apprentice treat the patient.

As soon as Lu Dawei entered the inner room and lowered the curtain, a shiny steel knife was suddenly placed across his neck.

"Boss Lu, you betrayed us and even brought the officials here."

A short man who looked like a farmer leaned against the wall and shouted viciously in a low voice.

"Third Boss, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." Lu Dawei raised his hands and said softly.

"The man outside is a life-and-death friend of mine. He heard that my brother was recovering from an injury, so he came to see me. Don't worry, Third Master. How could I betray my brother?"

The third in command put away his knife and pulled him in with force.

Lu Dawei stumbled and hit the wall, letting out a muffled groan.

The third in command looked outside. Perhaps Lu Fanghai heard the sound and glanced towards the inner room.

"Don't worry, Third In Command. This person has been eating and sleeping with me for more than five years." As he said this, Lu Dawei laughed.

"He and I have been each other's arms on the battlefield, saving each other's lives countless times. I, Lu Dawei, dare to say that even his delicate wife is not as trustworthy as me."

The third in command lifted the curtain and looked outside, and saw Lu Fanghai sitting back down again.

He turned around and glared at Lu Dawei, saying:

"If I wasn't worried that if I left you in the village, my second brother would find an opportunity to chop you to pieces, I wouldn't have brought you out to cause trouble."

"Hehe, I know that Third Master is good to me, so I want to take this opportunity to introduce my brother to him. He is in the government office, and who knows when he will... More friends means more paths, right?"

After he said this, the third in command started thinking and felt that what he said made some sense.

only......

"Let me be frank with you. If he intends to capture us and collect the reward, then no matter what you say, we cannot let him go."

"Don't worry, Third Master. If Brother Lu wants to take the credit for killing the bandits, just take my head."

Lu Dawei patted his chest and guaranteed it, but the third in command was only half-believing and half-doubting.
