Brother, what should we do? several brothers asked Lin Erbao in a low voice.

Lin Erbao looked at Qin Yao deeply, I, are we really going to take this person away?!

Qin Yao nodded: Take it away, I will never stop you.

Lin Erbao and the others: .

Lin Erbao was still a little wary when he thought about the moment he was teased by Qin Yao. He didn't want to be known as a bully to women and children, so he simply changed his mind.

Okay, you two can sing the double act here, I want to see who is crying!

take away!

Lin Erbao gave the order, and several brothers immediately picked up Liu Ji who was tied into a rice dumpling on the ground and carried him away.

After walking a few steps, he looked back to see Qin Yao's expression.

It turned out that Qin Yao was not moved at all.

This was the first time Lin Erbao had encountered this kind of thing in his life. People say that a couple's kindness lasts for one night, but why is it that this couple has no affection at all?

There were four Liu family dolls, but none of them came to stop him. How much did Liu Laosan get disliked!

Watching Lin Erbao and his party carrying the struggling Liu Ji away, Liu Dalang looked at his stepmother in front of him and whispered:

You just want to scare my father, you don't really want Lin Erbao and the others to kill him, right?

Qin Yao: . No, I am serious.

Four children: .

Seeing Qin Yao disperse the villagers watching the show, she picked up a hoe and two bags of unknown stuff and walked into the house.

The four Liu brothers and sisters looked at each other, and then the three brothers shouted Dad! and chased like crazy in the direction where Lin Erbao and others disappeared.

Unfortunately, I was too weak. I didn't run even two steps before my legs became weak from exhaustion and I felt dizzy. I stopped under an old tree at the head of the village.

After a while, they all floated back in despair, looking at Qin Yao's busy back, hesitating and not daring to speak.

Then came the panting old man Liu and his son, who had just hurried back from the fields.

The world is finally settled, and the troubled times have just passed.

The current population of Shengguo is sparse, so the farmers are allocated a lot of land, which is spread out among the people. Each adult man gets fifty acres, and each adult woman gets twenty acres.

Of course, taxes also increased.

The villagers of Liujia Village plant millet in spring and wheat in autumn. They are busy in the fields all year round, but the output is not much. With such hard work, they can barely sustain food for a large family.

Seeing that the weather was getting colder, Old Man Liu did not dare to be idle, so he took his three sons to work in the fields before dawn.

The women at home didn't have time either. Old man Liu's step-wife, Mrs. Zhang, led her eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter-in-law to clean up the house and then went to the vegetable field.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law plan to harvest another crop of vegetables before winter arrives so that they can store them for the winter.

When Liu Ji was in a commotion, there was only an eight-year-old child at the Liu family's old house to look after the house.

When the villagers who came to report the news saw it, they hurriedly asked the child to call his uncles back, saying that his third uncle was about to be beaten to death by debt collectors.

This kid had heard his grandparents tell him about his third uncle's deeds and hated him. But knowing that he was going to be beaten to death, he couldn't care less about his dislike. He hurriedly locked the door of the house and went to the fields to look for the adults in the family.

The mountain road is far away. When the baby sent the news and Old Man Liu rushed over with his three sons, the people in front of Liu Ji's house had already been dispersed by Qin Yao.

He didn't see Liu Ji, but only saw the four Dalang brothers and sisters standing in the courtyard, trembling. Old man Liu felt a palpitation in his heart - he had an unknown premonition.

Da Lang, where is your father?

Liu Ji's eldest brother Liu Bai saw that his father had not spoken for a long time, so he couldn't wait any longer and asked first.

Dalang looked at his grandfather and uncles in front of him, and then at Qin Yao in the room. He didn't know how to speak for a while.

Could it be that the stepmother asked the debt collector to take my father and kill him to pay off the debt?

Seeing that the four brothers and sisters were silent and just looking into the room, Old Man Liu waved his hand, and they walked towards the door of the house.

The thatched house that Liu Ji's family lived in didn't even have an earthen wall, so it was just made of river mud and became a wall.

This kind of house has two small rooms. The kitchen is open-air. It is just a stove built with stones. There is a pot on the stove and an empty vat next to the stove. There is not even a fenced yard, so you can see it at a glance.

Old man Liu and his son arrived in front of Qin Yao within two steps.

The third child brought back this new daughter-in-law, whom Old Man Liu had met once.

Three days ago, Liu Ji, a shameless man, was lying in the yard of his old house, saying that he was going to the county town to pick up his wife. He 'borrowed' ten cents, used the money to rent an ox cart from the wealthy man Wang's house next door, and rushed to the county town. The person picked it up.

Liu Ji did not forget that his father was an elder in the family. He took his new daughter-in-law to the old house and kowtowed to Old Man Liu.

Yao Niang fled, penniless, wearing old clothes given by others, she was skinny.

At that time, Mrs. Zhang, the step-mother-in-law, shook her head. Her small body was a big loss, and she didn't know if she could be raised by someone like Liu Ji.

But that face looks very good, no wonder Liu Ji insisted on renting an oxcart to bring this pretty lady back.

Dad, eldest brother, second brother, and uncle. Qin Yao called each one.

The Liu brothers nodded to her politely.

Father Liu finally let out the breath he was holding and asked with a straight face: Where's that bastard, the third child?

Qin Yao first put the hoe in her hand behind the door. This is the most valuable item in the house now.

Then he replied calmly: The debt has been paid off.

Liu Ji's second brother Liu Zhong asked: He who has a penny in his hand and has to spend it to buy half a plate of peanuts, what can he use to pay off his debt?

Qin Yao raised her eyes, looked at the four men in front of her, and said flatly: If you don't have money, pay with your life.

The four father and son were shocked, what does this mean?

Qin Yao had no intention of explaining, and just continued: You can redeem him if you want, just use the money to redeem him. I don't have a penny anyway.

What kind of situation this family was in could be seen clearly at a glance. Old Man Liu and the other four could not refute her words and choked.

Dad, let's go home and eat first. After taking a break at noon, we have to go to the fields in the afternoon. Do we really want the big guy to use money to redeem that bastard? Our family doesn't have any money. Dad, please wake up!

Liu Fei, the fourth son of the Liu family, who was standing at the end, spoke angrily to persuade.

He has just turned fourteen this year and is the youngest in the family. He is the second child of Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhang. His older brothers are many years older than him and they all give way to him, so he is also the most angry.

He didn't believe that Qin Yao, the bride, was really willing to care whether her husband lived or died. Therefore, serious ladies are not in a hurry. Why are they anxious? My family has helped me enough!

The sons of the Liu family were named according to the ranking of their brothers and uncle Ji. Liu Ji ranked third. Logically speaking, he should be named Uncle Liu. However, after giving birth to three sons in a row, Old Man Liu no longer wanted any more sons, so he took the name Ji to express his feelings. Stop it.

Who would have thought that later Liu Ji's biological mother died of illness, Old Man Liu married Zhang, and the two actually gave birth to another son.

Old man Liu looked at the boy in this family, feeling sad, but there was nothing he could do. He had already given birth, so how could he drown to death?

Of his four sons, the eldest and second are filial and hard-working. Even the youngest, the fourth, although he usually likes to compete for small profits, has followed his father and brothers to the fields since he was eight years old.

The only one who came out was the rebellious son, Lao San, who had been disobedient since he was a child. If you asked him to go east, he would go west. If you asked him to stand still, he would insist on climbing a tree!
