Chapter 13 Domineering Father-in-law
Song Tianming has not been idle these days. Although he is so poor that he can't afford to lose his temper, his father has a lot of books and a pile of people.
In addition to reading, I occasionally chat with the old village chief and a few elderly people from the village.
Song Tianming began to crazily absorb information from this era, and finally summarized it: It's really messy.
Today, when the Central Plains are divided into three parts, Dagan and Dakun are divided into rivers and ruled, Daqin lives in Guanzhong in the west.
Da Kun was originally a vassal state of Da Gan, but Da Gan fought for years, the people's livelihood was declining and the national strength was sharply reduced. Da Kun was located in a prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River and had almost no war. It has long been independent of one and the other, and it is not known that it has even replaced the capital.
The barbarians occupied the northern border of Dagan and occasionally crossed the border to plunder and kill people. If it weren't for the great victory of Yanyun ten years ago, which shocked the barbarian tribes, they would have been afraid that the situation would be even worse.
The Qin Dynasty dominated the nine counties of Guanzhong and Bashu, and the six Tubo tribes in the west, and the barbarians in the north.
The same wars occurred frequently, but the people of the Qin Dynasty could truly and be good at fighting. If they had not relied on Taihang Pass to defend it, the Qin Dynasty would have probably gone east long ago and competed for the Central Plains.
Just talking about the current big-killing court, it is also a mess.
The most powerful force in the big sect was the Xiao family of the military family, and the He family of the civil servant group. The royal family and the Wang family of the Langya family were gradually declining.
After Duke Xiao relapsed and died five years ago, the Wang family became more reckless, forming cliques for personal gain, corruption and abuse of power, and causing chaos in the court.
He has participated in eleven prefectures and more than sixty counties.
Dongpan Township where Song Tianming is located belongs to Shouchun County, Yangzhou, and is only more than 400 miles away from Dakunjiang Prefecture, which is considered to be the rear.
But now people are in poverty and cannot fill their stomachs. This is a sign of troubled times.
Song Tianming originally wanted to inherit the mantle of a cheap father and take the path of official career.
Now, I have to make other mistakes.
Just as Song Tianming was thinking hard about life, Erniu came hurriedly.
"Mr., something big is wrong. People from Nanwan Township are here to cause trouble."
Song Tianming withdrew his thoughts and couldn't help but laugh at himself: "We are just a farmer, is it the turn to worry about the country and the people? Let's live well first."
"Don't panic when encountering problems, as your own turmoil will give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it."
Erniu scratched his head and smiled honestly: "What the little gentleman taught me is that as long as you are here, you will not be afraid of anything."
"Don't call me Mr., I'll call you Brother Ming in the future."
Erniu scratched his head again: "But that's how everyone calls."
"You are my brother, so you will call me brother from now on. Tell me what's going on?"
"I don't know which turtle grandson leaked the news that made the turtle grandson in Nanwan Township know that we can make money by fishing. Today, their inner-camp came with dozens of people, saying that the fish in the Nujiang River came from Nanwan Township and had to be divided into one. Isn't this an open robbery? The old turtle chief and his men will probably have to do it now."
"Then you didn't say it earlier."
Song Tianming ran away and said to Erniu from behind: "Brother Ming, don't panic when encountering trouble, be distracted... What's the matter behind?"
What a guy, hundreds of people were facing each other with all kinds of strange weapons by the river. They were so saliva that they were flying, and the scene was very spectacular.
When the villagers of Dongpan Village saw Song Tianming, they consciously gave up their way.
When he saw Lao Lichang, his legs were trembling with anger, and the iron rake in his hand raked.
Song Tianming hurriedly said, fearing that if anyone had an impulse, a large fight would inevitably be inevitable.
"Zhou Lichang, your body is getting stronger and stronger. Are you going to go to the river to catch fish today?"
Song Tianming flattered her tepidly, and the atmosphere eased a little.
"I guess this is the young man from Dongpan Township? I have long been honored by my name. It just so happened that we will judge today."
Zhou Li has been in his sixties for many years, has a slightly fat body, a national character face, eight characters, and a bit elegant.
When Song Tianming saw the old man bowing his hand, he hurriedly returned the gift.
"The more the truth is, the more clear it becomes. Please give me advice."
"We two villages carry water along the mountains and drink together in Nujiang. The fish in the river must be a common property. Why do we salvage and make profits privately?"
It’s no shame that the old master who retired from Xiahe County is a skilled man.
Song Tianming was still wondering whether it was not appropriate to use it on the mountain to carry water. The old lady responded angrily: "The old guy reads the books of sages in vain. We fish on our own river. It's all your business. If you have the ability, do you cut off the Nujiang River?"
"If they really want to cut off Nujiang, we don't need to go online and just go down the river to catch it."
A joke made everyone in Dongpan Township laugh continuously.
Zhou Lichang was not angry, and still said kindly: "Or don't you share half of the fish you caught to Nanwan Township, or give us a fishing net."
Song Tianming then understood. Nanwan Township was jealous and wanted to make a net to catch fish, so he responded: "The so-called distant relatives are worse than close neighbors. We are all fellow villagers, so we should help each other, but what is the difference between such behavior and bandits?"
Zhou Lichang knew that he was in the wrong, but for the sake of his fellow villagers, what is the face?
"Mr. Su Wen Gao Yi, can you help us bandits and fellow villagers?"
Song Tianming was stunned when he heard this, "What a guy, this old man is pretty good."
A strong man with black face shouted loudly: "Uncle Second, why are you talking about this stupid guy? Today, you have to give this website, and if you don't give it, just grab it."
The people of Nanwan Township also agreed, and they were stanced to not give up until they achieved their goals.
"Shut up on Monday. This young gentleman is your son-in-law. How could he lose his demeanor?"
Zhou Lichang used his trump card.
Song Tianming and Zhou Cang were both confused. When did they get married?
Zhou Yi, who was beside him, called timidly: "Dad, he is my husband Song Tianming."
Zhou Yi's mother died early, and her father Zhou Cang had a bad temper. He fought with him at any disagreement. He had a very bad reputation in Nanwan Township.
There are also two older brothers who have inherited their father's excellent genes, and even the wife they marry is extremely tough.
Zhou Yi followed her mother and became her brother and sister-in-law's punching bag. She either beat or scolded her, and she couldn't eat enough.
Seeing that the family could not live anymore, they sent Zhou Yi to marry him as soon as they planned. When they heard that the man's family was a fool from the next village, they never asked about it again, for fear of being implicated.
