Chapter 286
Chapter 286
Returning to Shanggu Village non-stop, Liu Yaoqing didn't rest, and went directly to Lai Zizi's house with brother Zhezi.
"Uncle, drink hot water." The little brother has a sharp face, big eyes, and is very alert. When he saw Liu Yaoqing coming, he hurried to the kitchen to bring out hot water.
The little man was crooked in the corner, dancing, with a distorted expression on his face and empty eyes.
The little brother leaned over to talk to his brother in a low voice, and wiped the saliva from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.It can be seen that he often does this, even though he is young, he is no less than an adult.
Lai Zizi is old, and it is convenient for people in the village to go to the town, not just come to his house to buy wine, business is getting worse day by day, there is no shortage of food, but he can't earn much money.
Went outside to talk about Sister Cui, just as Liu Yaoqing finished speaking, Lai Zizi frowned.
"I told the children that their mother died outside. I don't want them to know about Sister Cui, and I don't want them to see each other for the last time." Lai Zizi said, "Brother Qing, I know you are capable, but this thing……"
Even if other people's accidents happen, they will basically hide it from their children.
Liu Yaoqing also knew this, he thought for a while and said: "You think that other people will hide the truth from the child, it is because the child may not know the truth for the rest of his life, so naturally nothing will happen. But I think the little brother is smarter than ordinary children If there are too many, he can let Sister Cui go on his own initiative, wouldn't he secretly inquire about it? Instead of letting him inquire about it himself, and possibly being distorted by others, it is better to tell him in person."
"My little brother is smart, has his own opinions, and is sensible, otherwise I wouldn't let him know."
Children are far more capable than adults think, and children's growth does not change just because of a certain event.Just like Xiaobao, he was heartless until he died. He knew that he should be filial and work, but he has been like this since he was a child. Even when he was on the mountain and burned himself by fire, he would not change himself. way of doing.
Like Liu Quanfu, who was held in the palm of old man Liu all his life and lived the life of a young master, even if old man Liu himself was burned in the end and still wanted to protect him, he would not be moved.
Seeing that Lai Laizi was still hesitating, Liu Yaoqing simply opened up and said, "You can decide on your own, I won't help you make a decision. Now I think that the little brother is good and has no evil intentions. If he grows up If it’s still like this in the future, I will try to help him.”
Lai Laizi was a little moved. He really had no relationship with Sister Cui. All these years, if he had quarreled or fought, his younger brother would have noticed it. When he grew up, if he knew that he deliberately kept Sister Cui's death from him, he would be afraid. Yes there will be other ideas.
After thinking about it for a few days, Lai Zizi finally made a decision, went to Liu Yaoqing and said, "I will take the two children with me, let's go see each other for the last time."
"Success." Liu Yaoqing nodded and turned to make arrangements.
By the time he saw Sister Cui, the younger brother already knew what Sister Cui had done, and also knew that she was pregnant.
Kneeling in front of Sister Cui, the little brother said with tears in his eyes, "No matter what, you are my mother. Later... I will visit your grave. My brother will also burn incense for you, mother..."
Sister Cui's expression was numb, her eyes rolled to look at Liu Yaoqing.
"Why did you refuse to help me from the beginning to the end? If you could help me, why would I be like this." Sister Cui finally spoke.
Ever since she attacked the old bachelor in the city and fled to the village, even though she had spent money to create a fake identity for herself and successfully married, Sister Cui knew that she didn't want to live a serious life.
She didn't know what was wrong with her.
"Because you are not kind enough." Liu Yaoqing said, "The most fundamental thing for a person to be a human being is kindness. If there is no kindness, anyone will be afraid. But I think you may not understand it all your life. On the contrary, my little brother not only understands, but also Well done. I will help take care of the little brother, so you can rest assured."
Sister Cui still can't figure out why Liu Yaoqing is willing to take care of her little brother now?He obviously didn't care about her at all.
I'm afraid I won't be able to figure it out again in this life, Liu Yaoqing and others left, farther and farther away, they gradually disappeared from Sister Cui's sight, and seemed to appear vaguely again.
When Liu Yaoqing returned to Shanggu Village, she felt uncomfortable for several days.
He told Sister Cui so firmly that he was actually conflicted in his heart.
"If a person is in a place where there is only evil, then he must find a little bit of goodness in it, and maintain that bit of goodness in order to survive." Liu Yaoqing said, feeling a little confused, "Brother Zhezi, I'm not sure either. Yes. Why do people live, and what do they rely on to live?"
"Brother Qing is talking about conscience. If you lose anything, you can't lose your conscience. Even if you are a heinous person, if you lose your conscience, you will really be heinous." Brother Zhezi rarely said so many words, "The first recruit After a murder, some will panic for many days, some will cry bitterly, some will be afraid in their dreams, and will call their parents. Although these recruits are troublesome, they are normal."
"There is another kind. They don't feel scared at all when they kill people for the first time, but take it for granted. Such recruits will be singled out. If they can't control themselves, they can only... make them unable to kill people forever."
Having said that, Liu Yaoqing seemed to understand a little bit.
Brother Hui and Brother Feng, as well as Brother Xing and Brother Guo, finally came back from outside.
There are other stewards together. It is said that the stewards discussed it themselves and asked the senior steward. They regarded coming to the stadium to watch the game as a benefit, just like going to Xiandao to soak in the hot spring.
Not all the stewards came back this time, some who didn’t want to come could get a sum of money, and some who didn’t catch the lottery could exchange places with the stewards who didn’t want to come.
"Brother Ming and none of them came back." Liu Yaoqing took a look, only Brother Hui and Brother Xing came back.
Su Qi and other brothers didn't come, neither did Zhige'er brothers, but there were quite a few other people who were in charge outside of Shanggu Village, and they all took the opportunity to go home now.
"Brother Ming and Brother Zheng are studying Gewu, so they don't have time." Brother Xing said, "Brother Zhi seems to have taken a fancy to a young man and is making contact. Brother Yan is worried, so he has to stay and watch."
"Oh." Liu Yaoqing nodded, "Brother Feng is here on the mountain, is this time an engagement?"
Brother Feng has no father and no mother. He grew up by the sea, and he and Brother Hui get along very well. The two of them got along when they met in Xiandao.But Brother Hui never came back, so Liu Yaoqing didn't ask.
This time when I heard Brother Hui was coming back, Liu Yaoqing tentatively asked Brother Feng if he could come too, and he did.
"It's about to get engaged." Brother Hui smiled, "If we don't want to get married again, our mother should be in a hurry."
"That's not true, mother is always talking about you. I am on the mountain every day, and mother is a little disgusted." Liu Yaoqing laughed.
The whole family went inside, Qin Jingyu ran out when he heard the commotion, and rushed over happily when he saw Brother Hui, and heard Brother Hui say: "My mother loves Brother Qing the most."
"Yes." Qin Jingyu nodded immediately.
The brothers in the family are all strong, even Brother Hui has been recuperating for many years, and he is also very strong. Liu Yaoqing alone, when giving birth to her first three children, used all kinds of expensive medicinal materials, but she was still skinny and didn't grow much flesh. I don't have much strength, and I am tired after walking a few steps.
Especially with Zhezi pampering her, when she was tired, someone carried her on her back and hugged her, and she couldn't bear the hardships at all, so that Liu Yaoqing was still like a child, white and tender, in contrast to her brothers.
Li Shi was worried that Liu Yaoqing was too weak, and wanted him to eat more food all day long.
"Take a rest and I'll take you to watch the match." Liu Yaoqing said with a smile.
This time, not all the teams from Daqin participated in the competition, and the lineup of judges has also changed accordingly. In addition to the original judges, there is also a second-rank senior official jointly recommended by the imperial court. Later, when his family was in decline, he had to start studying and enter an official career.
The rules and regulations are very detailed, Liu Yaoqing is much more relaxed now, when he is not a judge, he will come to the stadium with Brother Hui and the others to watch the competition with their children.
With only one month of kung fu practice, Batur practiced almost day and night, and so did the warriors under him.It is really that Daqin's Cuju team is too strong, and they are afraid of losing too badly.
The same was true for the teams sent by other small countries. After a month of training, the competition finally started.
Batur was lucky, he didn't draw Daqin, but a small country with a bad name in the south.
I heard that the Cuju team that was drawn to Daqin almost cried on the spot, and couldn't sleep all day long after returning home. They worked hard on the day of the competition, but unfortunately they still lost without any suspense.
The score was also very disparate, and they didn't get a point.
Fortunately, this is not a complete elimination. There are other opportunities. As long as you get enough points, you can continue to climb up.
The men on Batur's side are all tall and fierce, even the brothers are like this, while the team on the opposite side is said to be the confidant of the king, very capable, but generally short, some of the younger brothers It looks like a child, and it is said that the people over there are relatively short.
"We can't take it lightly, everyone has to go all out on the field." Batur said, "They look short, and they don't seem to be that strong. It is precisely because of this that if we lose, I am afraid someone will laugh at us. !"
"Our warriors on the grassland will never lose easily!"
"As long as it's not Daqin's team, we still have the strength to fight!"
"Batur, we will definitely win this time!"
"Yes! We want to win, let the scholars in Daqin see our ability!" Batur showed his determination to win, "Let them also write our poems!"
The tribe does not have its own written language, and the language is taught orally. As the tribe does business with Daqin, they consciously learn Daqin's characters.
I heard that in a few days, Daqin intends to open a school, so that children from neighboring small countries can learn to read and so on.
Daqin has changed so much and developed so well, they have long been looking forward to learning to read and write openly, and this opportunity will definitely not be missed, but if the Cuju competition is famous, it would be great!
"It's Batur's team." Sitting in the stands, Liu Yaoqing recognized their identities when they saw the exact same fur clothes.
Brother Zhezi followed with a basket on his shoulders, some of the children followed Liu Yaoqing, some followed Brother Hui or Brother Xing.Guogeer was also there, with his own children, Fenggeer was still a little shy, so he didn't come out to show his face this time, and stayed on the mountain.
Before the start of the game, the two sides lined up to enter the field and meet each other.
They all wear clothes that are convenient and look good to them, so that people can tell them apart at a glance.
The people on the stage had already started cheering, Liu Yaoqing heard the little lady sitting in front of him covered her face and said: "I think the little guy from the south is really short, but he looks really good, just like a little brother."
"Are you interested? Can your father agree?"
"It's not that easy. I have to see if he is willing or not. Besides, I don't want to leave my hometown and marry outside. If he is willing to marry, maybe it's okay." The little lady said very assertively, "By the way, you see The man in the middle is from Daqin, did you tell your father when you got home?"
"I've said it, my father said that he wanted to find out who the man was, and he would come to the door only if he was good."
"Then let my dad help me find out when I go home. I think he plays cuju well and loves to laugh. He should be a good guy. Even if his status is not good, it's not a big problem. I heard that there is movement in the yamen. If you want to organize a special Cuju team, if you can join, then your status will definitely increase."
