Salt Xiao Fulang

"Xiaoqing—"

"Hey! Here we come!"

In a wilderness, a sudden black deep ditch divides the land into two sides.The ditch was as deep as a person, and all those who dug hard below were submerged in it.Only when you get closer can you see groups of men wearing unlined clothes, waving shovels in their hands, some digging, some transporting, and getting the frozen soil to the top.

Following the call, a thin man climbed neatly to the ground and said with a smirk, "Here we come, boss, is there anything I can do?"

It was already cold winter, and his hands and feet were blue from the cold.But others are also like this, and after getting used to it, they become numb.

The white breath he exhaled was in front of his eyes, and the head changed from his usual high-spirited, and said with a smile on his face: "Someone came to see you, it's over there in the shed, go."

This thin man is Tian Xiaoqing.When he first heard the news, he widened his eyes: "Why? My siblings are still young..."

"You'll know if you've been there? What nonsense!"

Tian Xiaoqing quickly closed his mouth, turned his head and walked towards the shed.

This is a city not far from Chunyang County. A group of hard labor was brought in to build ditches outside the city.These are people who have committed crimes in various places nearby, and the county magistrate sentenced them to how many months of hard labor before they can be released.

Tian Xiaoqing is one of them.

In winter, the soil is frozen, but they still have to dig.At first he couldn't bear such heavy labor, and fell ill twice, but after more than two months, he gradually got used to it.

He was wrong about this matter, but he was wronged a lot.

In a sense, it was also a disaster for him.

It turned out that Sun Jinyuan, the second daughter-in-law of Aunt Niu's family, relied on the fact that she had a baby in her belly, and she was doing everything in her power all day long.

Song Xu was still restrained when they were there, and it was even worse when they left, saying how much he had contributed to this family.

Song Lao Er had made up with her once before, and although they temporarily reconciled because of her pregnancy, the knot in her heart was still there.Seeing that Sun Jinyuan was getting more and more annoying, the honest man became more and more angry, and finally one day, Song's second child couldn't help it anymore—he said he wanted to reconcile, and he would reconcile when the child was born.

Of course Sun Jinyuan didn't do it, but this kind of thing wasn't something she said she wouldn't do.

Once Song Laoer has eaten the weight and made up her mind, then she really has nothing to do.

At this time, Sun Jinyuan regretted it.

But each of these people has his own way of thinking.After she regretted it, she didn't mean to win back Song Lao Er's heart, but wanted to get more money from his family.

She spread branches and leaves for the Song family, and sent away her mother-in-law as soon as the child was born-it really doesn't sound good to say it outside, and it stands to reason that the Song family should give more compensation.

With a thought, Sun Jinyuan told her natal family that she wanted nothing else but the shop that Song Xu left behind.

The shop is indeed still under Aunt Niu's name, but everyone knows that it is Song Xu's property.

Aunt Niu didn't agree anymore, what the hell was asking for it, in her heart she was just keeping it for Song Xu, and she would return it when he came back!

Failure to agree is the beginning of conflict.Sun Jinyuan, five or six brothers from her natal family, was led by her to make a scene in front of the fried dumpling shop every day. She, a pregnant woman, even pretended to be pitiful and knelt down in front of the door with her belly in her hands, berating Song's second son for being a heartless man.

Seeing that the business could not be done, Tian Xiaoqing died of anxiety, so he came out to argue with others.

But how could he be against five or six strong men alone?Instead, he was beaten.

After the incident escalated, the Sun family harassed them from time to time, and Tian Xiaoqing also brought a group of buddies from Dashi Village to support the scene.The last time, when the fight was fierce, Tian Xiaoqing's blood rushed to his head, and he pushed one of Sun Jinyuan's cousins ​​hard.

Unfortunately, the cousin slipped and slammed into the wall hard, blood spattering.

That hit the head!

This cousin Sun was unlucky, he was seriously injured, and he couldn't wake up for a long time.

The Sun family saw that they seemed to be justified, so they sued Tian Xiaoqing to the officials. Tian Xiaoqing intentionally hurt others and was sent to prison.

Dashi Village exploded.

Song Laoer, a dull and honest man, lost his temper for the first time.He asked to divorce his wife in the name of "Qichu", saying that he and the Sun family were incompatible, and they would never get a penny, and the Sun family had to in turn compensate the innocent Tian family.

Few people among the people investigate what is going on, and even fewer divorce their wives.

Some villages have their own rules, even stronger than the government.This led to the fact that the succeeding county magistrate had no relevant experience at all.

The new county magistrate is a mediocre official with no big ambitions in his life. He never expected that so many things would happen when he was transferred to a small county.

Aunt Niu shed tears at home and wrote a letter to Song Xu.

Not long after that, Sun Jinyuan's cousin woke up, but he became a little dull.

The county magistrate sentenced Tian Xiaoqing to do hard labor nearby for half a year.

As for the matter of divorcing his wife, he finally decided to allow it - he has also seen the unruliness of the Sun family, and it is even more terrifying for an honest person to get angry. perish together……

In the blink of an eye, April passed, and Tian Xiaoqing was digging a hole here, often counting the days to see if he could go home for the New Year.It's just because his parents are not in good health, and he still has to do things in the field, and his younger brothers and sisters are still young, so it is absolutely impossible for him to come and see him.

So who is this person who makes the overseer smile?

He pushed open the simple tent door, and he saw two gorgeously dressed, black-haired and snow-skinned people—one handsome, the other smart, they looked like a pair of lovers in terms of aura.

Take a closer look, the more you look at it, the more familiar it looks, why is it so similar...

"Brother Xu!?"

Tian Xiaoqing couldn't help roaring out.

"You're out of your mind!" Song Xu didn't have a good look at him, and poked his forehead with his index finger: "You still fight with people, push people to bump heads, something happened!? With your small body... "

Tian Xiaoqing didn't listen to anything, and kept trying to give Brother Xu an intimate hug: "Brother Xu, Brother Xu!"

Song Xu couldn't hold back anymore, he opened his arms and laughed.

"You-"

After finally getting over the excitement, Tian Xiaoqing began to ask blablaly 180: "How did Brother Xu come here? How do you know I'm here? Did you pay the supervisor? It's really unnecessary—he Grandson is so greedy, I will go back in two months... How is Xiaochun? I think you seem a little fat! Are you getting rich by dressing so well? Wait... Xiaoxiaochun... "

When Xiaochun stood up, he suddenly widened his eyes and tied his tongue: "Little Xiaochun, are you pregnant!?"

Probably digging a hole here suppressed him severely, and what followed was a half-hour-long buzzing of "you have to be careful when you're pregnant", with a few words "Brother Xu is awesome" from time to time. Rainbow farts like "Getting pregnant with all the things that can't be born is really awesome".

Xiaochun's face turned red, and he really wanted to sew his mouth shut.

When he finally said that he was happy, he took the glass of water that Song Xu poured for him, and drank it like a drink.When the cup was put down, another man he didn't know walked in, holding a baby, and Jiang Tiantian.

"day by day!"

"Brother Xiaoqing!"

Song Xu hurriedly pulled Tian Xiaoqing over: "Okay, I'll celebrate later, look at the single clothes you're wearing, I'm freezing to death. Hurry up, these are clothes for you, put them on to keep warm."

Song Xu took a cotton cloak from Yuan Shan and put it on him.Tian Xiaoqing had a sore nose, choked up and said, "Good brother, you are really my good brother..."

As soon as Tian Xiaoqing vented, he followed Song Xu and his party into a spacious and comfortable carriage in a daze.

When Yuan Shan set up his horse, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Wait, where are you going? I still have to dig a hole?"

"What kind of pit do you dig? We finally took you away, and you still want to dig a pit?"

Xiaochun explained: "After half of the hard labor, you can use money to redeem the remaining working hours. We bought it for you, and now we are going home."

Tian Xiaoqing asked dully: "How much? I may not be able to afford it!"

Hearing this, Xiaochun proudly waved his hands and said, "It's okay, my family has nothing else now, only a lot of money!"

Tian Xiaoqing "..."

The Song Xu family, who were promoted to the local tyrant class, returned to Chunyang County.

Looking at the familiar scenery outside the carriage, even Song Xu was quite moved.

I talked with Tian Xiaoqing about the things they had done since they left, and everyone listened carefully.The point is about that Sun Jinyuan.

Although some people think that it has come to an end, Song Xu's place is obviously not over yet.

This woman, messing with his neighbor, messing with his brother, and messing with his shop—does he really think he has no money?

But this account is not in a hurry to settle today.

After months of traveling and traveling, he felt so sorry for Xiaochun.His stomach has been seven months old, and it is very swollen and very tossing.

Thanks to Xiaochun's good health, even so, he vomited in the middle.

During the ten or so days when the pregnancy reaction was severe, Song Xu found an inn to stay.Xiaochun vomited and ate, tossing so much that Song Xu didn't eat much, and then lost five or six catties.

It's not that I don't have an appetite, but it's really painful.

It takes a lot of energy to vomit, and Xiaochun vomits once and is sweating all over his body.In the end, Song Xu almost wanted to cry.He even thought about the future contraceptive measures in his heart - he didn't want to repeat such a painful process again.

But Xiaochun is stronger than him.If you can't eat, you have to insist on eating. If you can digest a little bit, you can comfort Song Xu not to be afraid, and it's not hard.

Fortunately, the period of strong reactions passed quickly, otherwise Song Xu really couldn't guarantee what he would do.And when the fetus kicked Xiaochun's belly for the first time, the couple almost jumped up in surprise.

Yes, it will move!

What a great thing it is to have a child, to grow from nothing, to divide and grow.

As Xiaochun's pregnancy progressed, Song Xu and him had a tacit understanding, and even that love was mixed with more warmth.

And now, they're finally home.

***

Under the old locust tree at the entrance of Dashi Village, the gossip vanguard is crazy!

Freshly released information - Song Xu's bastard took his husband out to run a business, and he actually made him money!

Look at that magnificent carriage, look at that heroic servant, look at that... I don't know where the child came from.

All, all look like a pair of glittering gold! ! !

And he even went to the neighboring city to bring back Tian Xiaoqing from the Tian family!

This is not forgetting our villagers even when we are rich!

Aunt Niu received the letter early in the morning, and had already set up a home-cooked banquet at home, just waiting for Song Xu and the others to come back for a delicious hot meal.

So before cleaning the house, the few of them went to the next door to fill their stomachs.

As soon as she stepped through the door, Aunt Niu was shocked: "Xiaochun, what a belly!?"

Song Xu smiled happily: "My baby."

Aunt Niu glared at him: "Of course it's your baby, what are you thinking!? It's just that the sixth uncle said that day..."

"Let's eat first, and talk while eating." Seeing that Chang Mi was already drooling with greed, Xiaochun quickly proposed.Everyone agreed, and started eating happily.

Several people took turns to describe the trading road, removing those details that were too dangerous, Aunt Niu was still taken aback.

After listening, she tearfully said to Chang Mi: "Good boy, you are brother Xu's eldest son, and I am your aunt, ask my aunt to listen?"

Chang Mi said obediently: "Grandma."

Although I missed a word, Aunt Niu is still so beautiful that I can't find the north - being called face to face by such a cute baby, Aunt Niu feels that she can take out her heart, liver and lungs!

Besides Song Xu's affairs, Aunt Niu also had a situation to tell Song Xu.

"Li Baozhu's natal family insisted that she remarry. When I wrote the letter, the village was already arguing about it. In the end, Li Baozhu picked up a foolish man somewhere and said that was his husband. Stupid man Although he is not very good at talking, he smiles at everyone as if he is not born with a stupid look, but he is quite strong. He is capable of carrying firewood and water. "

Speaking of this, Aunt Niu sighed: "She doesn't take the reputation of chastity seriously, her parents got angry on the spot, they didn't show face to their daughter in front of everyone, and beat Li Baozhu to the ground with a stick. When the village chief arrives, the beatings are over, and the natal family can only go back."

Song Xu was amazed: "Why is that stupid man so stupid? What's his background?"

Aunt Niu didn't know anything about them, she was just a little bit sorry, and felt that Li Baozhu's appearance and age could be matched better.

Better than a fool who can never tell you what's on his mind.

Xiaochun suddenly said: "It is not necessary to speak out what is in your heart. If that fool really treats Li Baozhu well, loves her, and loves her, then everything he does for the family is to express what is in his heart."

Aunt Niu was thoughtful.

After dinner, Song Xu and the others finally returned to their home. Since their home hadn't been renovated yet, Yuan Shan could only stay at Aunt Niu's house, while Xiao Mi slept with the couple.

Aunt Niu helped take care of the dust and the like, but the water tank was still empty, so Xiaochun led Yuan Shan to the place where the water was fetched in Dashi Village.

In the evening, there were quite a few people walking outside, and almost all of them saw Xiaochun's big belly.

The people of Dashi Village couldn't believe their eyes...

It was agreed that I would never give birth again! ?

Is there a quasi-number! ?

Someone with a warm personality stepped forward and asked Yuan Shan who he was.

Yuan Shan politely replied that he was the housekeeper of Song Mansion.

"Song Mansion", yes, "Housekeeper".

It's awesome, it's amazing, it's estimated that in a few days, their house will be built with blue bricks and big tiles, right?

There are also some who are flexible in mind and strong in action, and go back to discuss with others in a hurry...

So that night, when the family was about to go to bed after washing, they heard someone calling the door outside.

Song Xu told Xiaochun and Xiaomi to lie down, put on his coat and went out.Outside the fence of the small yard, there were three or four women whom I didn't know, and I wasn't sure if their faces were familiar or not.

"Is there something wrong, everyone?"

"Yes, yes! Brother Xu, we heard that your husband is pregnant?"

There is nothing to hide, this time it is not fake, so I nodded.

The women showed joy on their faces: "Brother Xu must need a newcomer to take care of him personally? Look at Xiao Tao/Xiao Xing/Xiao x...how is it next to me? Do you want to accept it? Don't dare to use other names. Yes, one concubine is enough!"

Song Xu: "......"
