Mr. Liu had a strange expression, standing there squirming, muttering in a low voice: "...My master is not completely unmatched. How should I heal him if he is injured?"

A domineering voice suddenly broke in: "Go and beat and scold me. If you can't handle it, come back and call me! It's mine to kill or maim you!"

With Tan's support, Liu immediately became energetic.

She straightened her back and said, "I feel relieved because of what my parents said. From now on, if anyone dares to speak ill of our old Yang family behind their back, I will tear her mouth to pieces."

Yang Huaming: "Take it easy, take it easy..."

Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes at Yang Huaming, her eyes clearly saying that he was 'cowardly'.

"Fourth younger sister, fourth younger brother, don't listen to your parents. Try to go out and make grudges with others as little as possible. How we lived in the past will be how we live in the future. Even if Qing'er and Tangyaozi really don't come back, we still have Da'an and Xiao'an.

Keep an eye on it, as for the Luo family, Chen'er and Zhi'er can take charge of their own affairs, and our old Yang family will not collapse!"

Yang Huazhong, who had been silent until now, finally came to his senses. His haggard eyes swept over the people in front of him one by one, with both relief and guilt in his eyes.

"Everyone has been worried about our third bedroom during this period. Let's let the rest happen naturally. I will go to the Luo family first and help Qing'er mother take care of our two grandchildren."

After Yang Huazhong said these words, he stood up and went to the door.

Everyone's eyes were following his back. He had his hands behind his back. The tall and burly body he used to have today seemed to be unknowingly rickety and thin.

"Why do I feel so sad when I see Third Uncle's back?" Yang Yongqing scratched his scalp and suddenly said this.

Beside him, Yang Yongzhi glared at him forcefully, "If something like this happened, could Third Uncle be happy? It's good that he didn't completely collapse."

Zhao Liu'er said with red eyes: "Fortunes never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone. This is absolutely true."

Cao Bamei smiled bitterly: "Even if Duo'er is pregnant, this should be considered a happy event, but now it feels like adding insult to injury."

Bao Suyun shook his head and said in a hoarse voice: "... If it really doesn't work, let's send a message to Lao Wu, Yong Jin and the others. We can't help at home alone. We call Da'an and Xiao Andu..."

"Lao Wu's family, don't talk about that!" Tan shouted to stop Bao Suyun.

"What Lao San means about this is not to alarm the people outside. If you alarm, everyone will have to move. Da'an and Chen'er are the first to bear the brunt. They are still in the capital. What if something goes wrong on the way back?

Really? The luck of our old Yang family and old Luo family has hit a low point right now! Let’s carry it on our own for a while first, we really can’t hide it, they will come back on their own during the Chinese New Year, we’ll talk about it then!”

Tan's arrangement immediately left Bao Suyun speechless.

Lao Yang nodded, "What your mother said is right. This is not only our intention, but also the intention of the third child. Let's just keep it like this for now!"

Lao Yangtou stood up and knocked on the table, "Today's meeting will end here. Before we leave, I will give you a few words of advice. During this period, try to stay in front of your three brothers and three sisters-in-law as little as possible to talk about this and that.

, even if you are kind-hearted, try to speak as little as possible. It is not good to comfort, and it is even worse to sympathize."

Everyone nodded.

Old Yang looked at the yard, lowered his voice and said: "Some of you may still have other ideas in mind, worried that if the towering trees Qing'er and Tangyazi fall, our Old Yang family

The days ahead will be difficult,”

"Lao San was here before, so I couldn't mention this, so as not to chill Lao San's heart."

"Now that the third child is gone, I want to put it on the table to remind you that people can have their own little thoughts, and if they don't do it for themselves, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth."

"However, you must have a certain degree of caution in your thoughts, know how to make trade-offs and weigh things up, and you must know how to be grateful!"

"In the past, the person that our old Yang family could put in front of others was your eldest brother. He was a child student, and later he was Yongxian. He was admitted as a scholar."

"In those years, our whole family was able to survive by guarding more than 30 acres of farmland."

"In recent years, with the help of Qing'er and Tang Yazi, life in each house has been better, and we should have accumulated some wealth in our hands."

"Everyone should try to keep a low profile from now on and live a calculated life. On the one hand, we must have confidence in their return, and on the other hand, we must also make plans to rely on ourselves. Our old Yang family, no matter whether it is white flour steamed buns or wild vegetable nests

We can all eat steamed buns and live on."

"The most important thing is that we must be united! The whole family is united, do you understand?"

It has been a long, long time since the old man said such sonorous and passionate words as he did today. After saying it in one breath, his heart still felt a little dull.

But there was no sound to interrupt him during the process.

Everyone looked up at him, and they were all affected by his words. Even Tan's two eyebrows, which were so pale that they could no longer be distinguished, were frowning together at the moment, and a firm look shot out from the only eye that could see.

light.

Even Tan's family was infected, let alone others.

Yang Huaming's blood boiled when he heard that. He was the first to raise his hands and said: "Dad is right, a friend in need is a friend indeed. Now the third brother doesn't have the energy to deal with family affairs. If you need help with anything in each room, just come to me. I am your fourth brother."

Uncle, it’s my turn to carry it now!”

Yang Yongzhi also nodded vigorously, "Yongqing and I are the younger generation, and we are still holding on. Even if our industry is gone, we still have the strength to farm and feed everyone!"

Although Yang Yongqing also wanted to show his loyalty to his fourth uncle and brother, he still hesitated when he heard about farming.

"Hey, I admire you for having such a plan, but don't be too pessimistic," Yang Yongqing said.

"Think about it, our Da'an is still the number one scholar. Among the high officials in front of the emperor, there is Chen'er, a young general who is better than his predecessors. It's not like our old Yang family and old Luo family have no successors. There are already many young people in the younger generation.

If there is someone who can top the vat, the family business will definitely be preserved!"

…

Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang went to the river behind the village near noon.

"Tangyazi, we are back, we are finally back!"

When my feet stepped on the familiar ground, acres of farmland appeared in front of my sight. Although the fields were barren and overgrown with weeds in early winter, it was the warmest scenery in my sight.

Especially the undulating village farmhouses where the trail winds and extends, the smoke lingering over the village under the warm winter sun, and the familiar and strong local atmosphere. For the wanderers who have come back from the edge of life and death,

At this moment, I just want to kneel down, grab the turf under my feet and cry with gratitude.

The fox dies on the first hill, and the leaves fall back to their roots.
