Chapter 371 Ouyang Xue's Heart Demon (1)(1/2)
Lu Qingfeng was stunned for a while, glanced at the piles of firewood piled up in the corner of the yard, and walked out to get a hatchet to go up the mountain to chop firewood.
Mrs. Lu saw him going out with a hatchet, and his eyebrows became looser.
"I finally know something!"
When my father-in-law was seriously ill and owed a large amount of debt. Just when the old couple of the Lu family were worried about death, the brother-in-law went out and sold himself, took back a sum of money and paid off the debt. The rest could be left for his father-in-law to treat his illness.
His departure lasted for twelve years.
Back then, he was a doll under eight years old, and the one who came back was an eighteen-year-old man.
If this brother-in-law hadn't remembered what happened back then and could do whatever he said, he would probably not even dare to recognize Lu's mother just by looking at her appearance.
Lu Dalang and his younger brother are not similar at all.
Lu Dalang is a typical country man. He is pretty good-looking, has thick eyebrows and big eyes, is strong in body, and has strength.
His younger brother is tender and tender, very white, and he is so handsome that he doesn't dare to speak when he sees him.
Of course, people are very good-looking, but they are a little stupid. They don’t understand anything and can’t do anything well. Well, now they know how to chop wood.
Mrs. Lu had just been married to the Lu family for three and a half months and was still a new wife, but she had been so arrogant since she was a child that she was not as shy as a new wife. Besides, if an ordinary relative came to live in the house for one day or two, she would not be so unhappy and would definitely be well treated. But the younger brother-in-law had not yet got married, so he suddenly came back, would he have to marry and have children?
In order to marry herself, the Lu family spent her money on the family's fortune and had foreign debts. She washed bedding and clothes for people every day. Dalang also went down the ground before dawn and came back only when it was dark. These two days, it was the slack season, so he didn't dare to rest. He worked hard every day to find work.
That's it, it may take three to five years to pay off the foreign debt.
Where can I still have money to marry my brother-in-law?
What's more, this brother-in-law Wenwen is weak and doesn't seem to be able to work at first glance. He doesn't think his mind is good. How could she not worry?
Lu Qingfeng is a newbie in chopping wood, but fortunately, his sword skills are good, and he can use the chopping hatchet as a sword, so he can use it even if he uses it.
Just tired.
"I'm so tired!"
Lu Qingfeng chopped firewood slowly, occasionally taking a break, and lazily raised his hand to block the mottled sunshine.
The sun shone on his face, making him look pale and his lips are transparent. No wonder his sister-in-law thinks he is a weak person.
Shortly after Xiao Chao won the Central Plains, the dynasty was about to settle down, and gods and ghosts were rampant. Many sects in the world would send disciples to travel around, kill demons and eliminate demons, and uphold the right path.
The same is true for Lu Qingfeng. Since he left Canglan four years ago, he was accepted as his adopted son by the great national master Chen Ling. He has been with the great national master to ask about yin and yang everywhere and to determine right and wrong.
At the beginning of this year, the great national teacher Chen Ling retired and left the court to travel around, so he dismissed all his subordinates.
Even the adopted sons had their own futures, either becoming officials in the court, returning to the sect, or still following the national teacher.
On the day when Yang Yuying possessed, the national teacher was resigned and wanted to dismiss everyone. According to Lu Qingfeng's original decision, he must have been tormenting and stayed with Chen Ling to serve him. However, when Yang Yuying arrived, he encountered the national teacher and his group of people who were surrounded and killed. Lu Qingfeng was seriously injured, his internal organs were damaged, and his meridians were even broken.
If Canglan hadn't had his special true energy, he might have been dead.
Yang Yuying quickly influenced Lu Qingfeng and asked him to bid farewell to the national master and return to his hometown.
It would be too dangerous to follow Chen Ling. Besides, so many seniors in front of her failed and didn’t even know the reason, so she shouldn’t be more careful?
I also walked slowly along the way. After walking for half a year, I finally returned to my hometown.
It is clearly Taoyuan Township with beautiful mountains and rivers in my memory. When I look at it again, the mountains are not green, the water is not green, and the folk customs are not simple either.
"Why!"
Lu Qingfeng also realized that his injury could not heal.
At the beginning, he said he was seriously injured, but in fact, after taking the first-class spiritual medicine, Chen Ling went to the palace to ask for it himself.
His true qi is also good at healing injuries. The injury is not particularly serious. If it is really serious, it cannot be lifted. The national teacher cannot let him leave before he recovers!
But I have been raising this for half a year, and I have taken the best magic pill on time on the road without slacking off at all.
Yang Yuying himself is more proficient in spiritual cultivation skills and is also very effective in healing wounds.
Unfortunately, many methods are useless in the end.
"I was hit in a certain operation?"
Lu Qingfeng was not in a hurry. He was a man who was just living by himself and was a little lazy. Although he had won many names in the court and the country, such as "Smiling Yan Luo", "The No. 1 Dog-Legging of the National Master's Mansion", "The No. 1 Sword Technique in the Capital", etc.
But in fact, Ding Yifeng and Qinqin thought he was lazy all day long, and always felt that he had a Japanese sexual exposure, which would embarrass the National Master's Mansion.
"Hmph."
He is not stupid, how is that possible!
After looking at the sky, the sun sets westward, Lu Qingfeng shook down the mountain. As soon as he got off the mountain, he saw more than a dozen horses coming down the mountain road. All of them were wearing strong clothes, long bows hung on their waists, and a red feathered flying eagle was mounted on their shoulders.
"People from Mojiabao?"
Mojiabao is located in the north of Mo, thousands of miles away from Tong County. What are their people here?
Lu Qingfeng lowered his head, lowered the straw hat on his head, and walked sideways, just passing Mo Yusheng.
Mo Yusheng naturally didn't recognize him.
A group of more than a dozen riders rushed along the mountain road and headed to the distance.
Lu Qingfeng naturally began to think that there is Zhulin Temple south of Tong County and Qijiazhuang southwest...
With a flash of thought, he coughed twice, a little helpless.
Now he has no official position and is light. Ordinary people still have no food and clothing. He doesn't even have the money to pay off his debts for his family. What do you think of?
I took the firewood back and went into the yard to put it in. I heard the noise in the room and the faint sound of depression crying.
Lu Qingfeng looked over and saw that the person who came was his third uncle.
In the past few days after returning home, Lu Qingfeng instinctively broke out and had already straightened out the relationship between inside and outside the home.
My father died of illness three years ago. An old mother, Liu, was 43 years old and was still strong.
The eldest brother Lu Dalang just got married three months ago, and the bride is Wang from the neighboring village.
In addition, there is an uncle, two uncles, one uncle and the other aunt.
This family is a poor family, and of course, it is not as difficult as the food. The two uncles, like their family, have several acres of thin land and rely on the weather to make a living.
My uncle is now doing odd jobs for a restaurant in the county town.
My aunt and husband's family are no longer there, and now she is widowed at home.
Among the relatives, my uncle has the best family background. Now he works as a jailer in Tongxian County. Although it doesn’t seem particularly decent, he is really worth it. If anyone from a wealthy family goes to jail, these jailers can make some money.
"...I'll ask now and see who wants to buy a house in the village. My house is newly built, and the materials are good, half stone and half mud. There should be no problem selling for twenty or thirty taels of silver."
Lu Dalang's voice was a little dry, and as soon as he spoke, the room suddenly became quiet.
Mrs. Lu trembled all over, pulled out a veil to cover her face, and sobbed quietly.
Lu's mother also looked sad.
The third uncle and his wife of the Lu family breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, Uncle Lu said embarrassedly: "Big nephew, hey, it's Uncle San, I'm sorry for you! But I'm Dashun, one son. Now Dashun is so sick that he can't get up. The doctor said that he should first take ginseng and then think of other ways. This..."
Lu Dalang had a bitter face, but repeatedly promised to sell the house to raise money and would definitely pay off the third uncle's debt first.
The third uncle of the Lu family left.
As soon as the couple left, Mrs. Lu was furious: "Sell the house to pay off your debts? Are you stupid? Where can we live if the house is sold?"
"...I'll give my uncle three to eight or eight, and there's still a lot left. Let's build it again..."
"Bah, do you think the house will be sold and there will be enough money left?"
Mrs. Lu was so angry that her stomach hurt. She looked up and looked around. Her man couldn't beat a half of the fart with three sticks, and she squatted in the corner without saying a word.
My mother-in-law only knows how to shed tears.
None of the family can take things off.
No matter how unhappy Mrs. Lu was not happy, but Lu Dalang could not ignore his nephew's life or death. It was natural to pay back the debt.
The newly built half-stone house that had not yet lived in a warm place was sold to others, and the money was returned to thirty-one taels of silver.
The Lu family only brought their broken tables and chairs, worn wooden beds, and a bunch of broken furniture and pots and pans to return to the former thatched hut of the Lu family in shame.
Lu Qingfeng:!!
A gust of wind blew, and the hut rustled.
Several mice were squeaking in the whole house, and insects and ants were crawling around.
A layer of goose bumps suddenly crawled out of his body, his heartbeats faster, and cold sweats arise on his back.
Suddenly a dark cloud floated in the sky, dripping rain fell, the rain outside became heavier and drizzled in the house.
The rain has not stopped, and those who are asking for debt come to the door one after another.
Everyone knows that Lu Dalang has cash now, so he doesn’t have to pay debts at this time, so when will he stay?
Friends and relatives come to their homes every day, noisy and noisy, and no moment of cessation.
When the debtor leaves, the couple at home still has to quarrel.
Lu Qingfeng couldn't sleep day and night, so tired that he wanted to vomit blood, but he still couldn't sleep.
To be continued...
