Chapter 004 Lingjia Village, Yuehuagou
·
Yan Ruo You Ya
Lingjia Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, backed by Yuehua Mountains, and there is a tributary of Lingjiang River and Inner Sea on the left and right sides respectively. Logically speaking, Lingjia Village should be very rich, but Lingjia Village and the nearby villages are very poor. The reason is very simple The Yuehua Mountains are surrounded by clouds and fog all the year round. People who go hunting basically never return. The most villagers are digging wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain and setting traps to catch some small animals.
The villages close to the river and the sea have always been very wealthy, but the bad thing about Lingjia Village is that it is not only close to the tributaries of the Lingjiang River, but also close to the tributaries of the Inner Sea. However, the watershed is terrible. Every year, tidal sea water pours into the land, and large areas of land become semi-salt land. It is not that no one used to open up wasteland to grow food. Unfortunately, no seeds can survive if they are planted. Therefore, even if the land in the north of the village is no longer Fertility cannot bring the villagers a rich life.
In addition, in recent years, the imperial court has fought successively, and the taxes have been increasing year by year, making the life of the common people even more difficult, but in comparison, the life of Grandpa Ling Jingxuan's family is still decent.
Ling Qiyun, the old man of the Ling family, is the only old scholar in the village. He is the eldest in his family. He also has a brother, Ling Qicai, who is the head of the Ling family village. He is equivalent to a modern village head. They are all tax-free, so the lives of the two families of the Ling family are getting along.
The big house, Ling Qiyun, was Ling Jingxuan's grandfather. Mr. Ling was admitted as a scholar in his twenties. At that time, he was the only one in the village. Further, it was not until he was almost 40 years old that Ling Qiyun gave up the scientific examination and opened a small school in the village, collecting some repairs to subsidize his family.
Ling Qiyun has three sons and one daughter, the eldest is Ling Chengwen, the second is Ling Chenglong, the third is Ling Chenghu, and the youngest is Ling Chenghua. When he was young, Ling Qiyun also placed his dream of imperial examinations on his sons, but none of the three brothers were expected to study. , Not even a child student passed the exam. Speaking of which, the Ling family can be regarded as a farming and studying family, and everyone in the family can read and write, although none of them look like the old man.
Led by the two little buns, Ling Jingxuan, who was twisting a heavy wooden barrel to the riverside, sorted out the information in his mind a little. It turned out that Ling Jingxuan was the eldest son of the second room of the Ling family, Ling Chenglong. He was smart and well-behaved since he was a child. Zhongtongsheng, the old man was so happy that he worshiped his ancestors, but one day five years ago, as a man, he was unexpectedly pregnant, which indirectly exposed the secret that his parents had hidden for more than ten years. It turned out that he was born with a handicap There are both female genitals and male genitals. In modern times, this kind of person is called intersex, but in ancient times, it was a monster. People found that they were going to be burned alive. Ling Chenglong and his wife couldn't bear it. Things are hidden, who knows...
You can imagine what happened later. The old man was furious and threatened to drag Ling Jingxuan to Shentang. This incident shocked the Ling's ancestral hall at the time. Under the unanimous opinion of the patriarch and several elders, he decided to soak the pregnant Ling Jingxuan. The pig cage sank into a tributary of the Inner Sea, and it was unclear whether it was Ling Jingxuan's luck or the fate of the two little buns. When the villagers angrily tied up Ling Jingxuan, Lizheng Ling Qicai, who had gone to work in the county, came back and brought A piece of news came back that everyone could not calm down and accept. The newly appointed magistrate of Hu County expressly prohibited all villages and towns from abusing lynchings and ignoring human lives. In the end, Lizheng discussed with the clan leader of the Ling clan and decided to expel Ling Jingxuan from Ling Qiyun's lineage. Hurry to the foot of Yuehua Mountain, which is far away from the village. As for whether he can survive, it depends on his own luck.
After experiencing that incident, Ling Jingxuan was dumbfounded. If his mother Ling Wang couldn't bear it, she took out her dowry and private house for many years, and asked her natal brothers to help buy three acres of wasteland at the foot of Yuehua Mountain. Mu built three mud thatched huts, and the remaining two mu were reclaimed to grow some food to feed them. It is estimated that Ling Jingxuan, father and son, would have died long ago.
"call……"
Thinking of this, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief. The original owner's life was really bloody, but he didn't have any sympathy for him. With a small childbirth and years of help from his parents, he can barely get by, but since he was kicked out of the house, he has been in a daze. He often says that I am not a monster or something, and he is immersed in his own self-pity. In the world, he doesn't care about the life and death of himself and his two sons at all. Even if he accepts his Yiyi, he still doesn't know what he was thinking in the past five years, and the man who made his stomach big, he only vaguely Feeling a strong and strong physique, hot body temperature, heavy breathing, and he didn't even know what the other person looked like. He couldn't really sympathize with such a person.
"Daddy, we're here."
"Ok?"
Ling Jingxuan, who was immersed in his own thoughts, didn't notice the changes around him at all. It wasn't until Xiao Baozi's reminder sounded that he came back to his senses and put away the messy pictures in his mind. The river of the creek appeared in his line of sight, and there were dense forests behind it. There were many green wild vegetables and weeds growing beside the stream. Compared with the turbid water flow due to serious pollution in the 21st century, the water here is crystal clear, even in the water. Small swimming fish can be seen clearly.
"Is this a tributary of the Lingjiang River?"
Putting the barrel on the ground casually, Ling Jingxuan rolled up his trousers and stepped into the water. The cold stream water surrounded his feet, making people feel very comfortable.
"I don't know. They say this is Yuehuagou. This is the upper reaches. It is about to enter Yuehua Mountain. Usually no one comes here. We often go here with grandma to carry water."
While talking, Ling Wen pulled his younger brother and walked over. The two looked enviously at their father standing in the water. Three-year-old children in Lingjia Village can swim, but the two of them can't. The former Ling Jingxuan will not talk Well, most of Ling Chenglong and his wife came to help them behind their backs, and the Ling family didn't have a separate family, so they came and went in a hurry every time, so how could they have time to teach them water.
"Hehe... Do you want to come down?"
It was clear at a glance what they were thinking, and the picture of Xiao Baozi saying that he wanted to catch fish for him suddenly appeared in his mind, and a gentle smile could not help but appear on his face.
"Yeah... But we don't know how to sip water."
Hearing this, the two buns nodded excitedly, their eyes became darker and brighter, but in the next second they lowered their heads one after another, wringing their fingers aggrievedly. It was still very deep, more than enough to drown the little ones who couldn't swim like them.
"I will, come on, Daddy will teach you."
Going ashore barefoot and walking in front of them, Ling Jingxuan looked around and made sure that there was no one around, then he took off the clothes on himself and the two little buns. Skinny and skinny, almost out of shape.
"Ah... so cold, Daddy, Daddy, so comfortable..."
The little bun groaned with excitement as soon as he entered the water, his little hands hugged Ling Jingxuan's thighs tightly, and a bright and innocent smile appeared on his small face, which was estimated to be only two fingers wide.
"Father, teach me Fushui quickly, I want to learn Fushui."
Even the precocious big bun was excited, holding his other leg and shaking it vigorously, making Ling Jingxuan laugh out loud: "Okay, okay, let's go to the middle, the water here is too shallow, come on, follow daddy .”
Holding a steamed stuffed bun in one hand, Ling Jingxuan faced them and stepped back step by step. The two steamed stuffed buns took every step carefully but could not hide their excitement, and their little faces were flushed.
"Okay, it's almost there, the water here is only up to your chest, I'll let you go first, you learn to stand in the water, and then slowly bend your legs..."
When the water depth reached the right level, Ling Jingxuan tried to let go of their hands while talking, but the two brothers were so frightened that they held him tightly, unwilling to let go. Ling Jingxuan had no choice but to guide them patiently and slowly, teaching them one by one. How do they poach water.
"Haha... Dad, I know it, I know how to suckle water, daddy, look quickly, I have learned how to suckle water..."
Children's learning ability is always amazing. In less than a quarter of an hour, Big Baozi has learned to swim, although it is only the lowest level of dog crawling.
"Daddy, it's my turn, it's my turn..."
Seeing this, the little bun pouted and shouted in dissatisfaction, Ling Jingxuan pulled him and said to the big bun, "Don't swim into places where the water is too deep, remember to apply water to your face."
"Well, Dad, please teach Xiao Wu quickly, I know what to do."
At the same age, Ling Wen already has the demeanor of an older brother, never forgets to care about his younger brother's feelings anytime and anywhere, and is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed and warm. Ling Jingxuan nodded, turned around and concentrated on teaching Xiao Baozi, and when he also learned how to crawl like a dog In this way, Ling Jingxuan helped them wash their bodies separately to remove the dirt all over their bodies. The little faces hidden under the dirt were unexpectedly good-looking. Ling Jingxuan nodded with joy, touching this and that. The buns were too thin, which strengthened his determination to raise them into super meaty buns.
He has never bothered him about money. For the first time, he wants to make money, big money!
