Dali Langjun’s Ancient Way of Raising a Family - Chapter 49
From the moment Qi You saw Qiu Lie, he had guesses in his heart, but when the guesses in his heart were confirmed, he was still somewhat unacceptable.
He opened his mouth, but couldn’t make a sound several times, and finally squeezed a word from his throat.
He asked: “The old General Qiu?”
“The head is in a different place.” Qiu Lie closed his eyes, and unexpectedly recalled the snowy day in his mind.
Qi You opened his mouth wide and gasped violently, but his eyes were so dry that there was no tear.
He ran away as if to escape, and accidentally bumped into his father when he came out.
Father Qi saw something wrong with him at a glance, and pulled him to ask: “You’er, what’s the matter with you?”
Qi You’s eyes were red, and he felt that his throat was clogged badly. He couldn’t stop looking around to prevent Qi’s father from seeing his face.
“You’er, what’s the matter with you? Don’t scare Daddy.”
Qi You’s voice was hoarse, his head lowered, and his voice was light and fluttering, “Old Qiu is gone.”
When the words fell, a drop of tears fell heavily on the floor, making traces of faint.
Father Qi was too shocked, his hand loosened, Qi You ran out like an arrow from the string.
“Youer, Youer”
“Father, what’s wrong with Brother You?” Miao’er heard the voice and walked over.
Father Qi pulled her and said, “Miao’er, go quickly. You’er is in a very bad situation now. Go find him quickly and don’t let him do stupid things.”
Miao’er was confused. If it was the past, she might have rushed out without saying a word, but now, she chooses to ask why.
Only by prescribing the right medicine can she know how to comfort Brother You.
Father Qi said about the Qiu family.
Miao’er didn’t expect to get such a result. After thinking for a moment, she turned and went back to the house, picked up a large jar of wine, and chased it out.
Father Qi patted his head, yes, You’er is now in a low mood, she should drink some wine to relieve her sorrow when she is drunk.
Sure enough, Miao’er was smart and thoughtful.
In the end, Miao’er found Qi You at a Yingshan Pass. She didn’t say much, but silently stepped forward and handed him the wine jar.
“I think you might need this now.”
Qi You pulled out a stiff smile, reached out his hand to take the wine jar, tore the seal, and drank with his head up.
The drink was poured violently, and the mouth was too late to drink, and it spread all over his face and inside the skirt of his clothes.
“Boy Qi, can you call me Master? 』
“We have already said that it is an equivalent exchange.”
Qi You only felt bitter as he kept pouring drinks into his mouth.
If he had known that he had parted, it would be life and death, so why should he be stingy with that “Master”.
Old man Qiu, you are really confused.
I told you earlier that the green hills left are here, so I’m not afraid that there will be no firewood.
You see through the ages, there have been a few more generals who have gotten good deaths.
The cunning rabbit dies, the foolish dog cooks. When the birds are gone, good bows are hidden.
Master, do you really don’t understand, or do you know that you can’t do it.
Not worth it.
Qi You took the last sip of the drink and threw the empty altar far away, only to hear a few crushing noises dimly.
“Miao’er.” He stumbled to his feet and reached out to the girl, “Let’s go, let’s go home.”
Miao’er smiled silently, “Okay, let’s go home.”
…
Qiu Lie took the medicine, put on clean clothes, and sat in the living room eating noodles.
Qi You’s guess is correct, since he could hardly escape, he hasn’t had a good meal.
The emperor is really ruthless, and rushes to kill his Qiu family.
Uncle Fu died halfway in order to protect them.
He took his little niece and fled all the way from Chang’an. He escaped several times in the middle. If he didn’t remember that Qi You had said that he was going to Jincheng, or the little niece in his arms was too young, or he could not trust him. You are a person, he may have been unable to survive long ago.
While being hunted down, he panicked and fled to the southwest, where there was a flood. He hid among the refugees, fearing all the way, and followed the refugees into Jincheng.
It was just that his luck was not so good, and his little niece vomited badly in the middle, so he had to stop to find herbs for her. It took a day of effort, but unfortunately, the result was very little.
My little niece’s condition is getting worse and she has a high fever.
He didn’t dare to delay any more, even if he couldn’t find Qi You, but Jincheng was prosperous, it would be good to find a doctor to see his little niece.
As for whether he will be found out and the government will be pursued and killed because of this, that is not within his consideration.
Maybe it was his bad luck for too long. God couldn’t pass it. When he took his little niece to enter the city, he happened to see Miao’er and Qi’s father being chased by others.
He followed without thinking.
He saved Qi’s father and Miao’er, which is equivalent to Qi You owing him two lives.
Qiu Lie’s heart was at ease, because he had a bargaining chip to trade with Qi You.
What happened after that was a matter of course.
Qiu Lie thought a lot in his heart, but this did not affect his speed of eating noodles.
Seeing that he had finished eating, Qi’s mother quickly brought him another bowl, lovingly, “Good boy, I’m hungry, eat more, I will scoop it for you if it is not enough.”
Qiu Lie lowered his head for a while before spitting out two words, “Thank you.”
“No need.” Mother Qi waved her hand again and again, “When you are full, go to the guest room to rest for a while, that little girl, don’t worry, I have already given her medicine.”
The old man once told her that General Qiu taught You’er martial arts. Although he did not have the status of a teacher and apprentice, he was actually a teacher and apprentice.
One day as a teacher and a lifelong father, this kindness, they can’t forget.
Qiu Lie is General Qiu’s grandson, according to seniority, Qiu Lie is still You’er’s nephew, of course he needs to take good care of him.
Qi’s mother’s enthusiasm came from the heart, and Qiu Lie could hardly refuse this kindness.
Besides, he was really tired.
So he nodded, “So, thank you Bo.” He suddenly remembered that the Qi family is from Linhuai County, and he changed his words instantly, “Thank you, auntie.”
Qi Mu cheerfully said, “No thanks, no thanks.”
When Qiu Lie left, she shook her head and laughed. She was You’er’s mother, and General Qiu and You’er had a mentor and apprenticeship, but Qiu Lie called her aunt.
This generation is really messy.
It’s just that You’er didn’t formally apprentice at the beginning, and General Qiu also didn’t formally accept apprentices. Therefore, they had the feeling of mentoring and apprenticeship in their hearts.
Therefore, Qiu Lie was right to call her aunt.
Mother Qi was clearing the table as she thought about it, but the little pillar didn’t know where she came from, stretched out her little hand, and pulled Qi mother’s skirt, “Aunt, aunt, who is that little sister?”
Mother Qi chuckled, “What kind of sister, you have to call someone else’s sister.” The girl looked like she should be five years old, but she was bigger than a small pillar.
“Sister?” Xiaozhuzi was not very happy. “My sister must be as tall as her sister, and she is so young, how could she be a sister.”
“She is a younger sister, a younger sister.” The child twisted and ran away.
“Hey,” Qi Mu didn’t hold the person, “This kid…”
She quickly forgot about it, but Xiao Zhuzi took it seriously.
She’s her sister, she’s so small.
And she looks so beautiful, with thin eyebrows, white skin, and a curled nose, which is very special, very beautiful.
Xiaozhuzi covered her face with her hands, her eyes red.
He stepped on his short legs, ran back to his room, and rummaged in the room.
There are rattles, woodcarvings, pony, a small bamboo ball, kites and so on.
In addition to toys, there are all kinds of snacks and nuts, all of which he loves.
Look at the small pillar left and right, a little reluctant to take it out.
But when I recalled the white and tender face of the beautiful little sister, the child smashed his mouth.
This is a good idea, so let’s do it.
Under the influence and teaching of Qi You, Xiaozhuzi had the embryonic form of the later pragmatic school, so he did it as he thought of it.
He found a small basket at home, sorted out all the things that could be given to his sister, and put them in one by one, preparing to wait for her sister to wake up and give it to her.
As a result, I waited until the next day.
In the morning he was lying on the bed and heard the noise in the yard. He was curious and didn’t sleep anymore. He slid and stepped on his shoes and ran out of the room.
He was standing in the hallway, before he had time to look, the cool breeze in the early autumn morning gave him an excitement.
The little guy shivered and ran back to the house, put on his clothes numbly, and then ran out.
In the yard, Qi You asked people to set up a pot with gruel cooked in it. Everyone lined up, came forward to receive a bowl, and gave it to the next one after drinking.
There is no alternative, the conditions are limited, so we can only do this.
When everyone had finished eating, Qi You said: “Currently, the conditions are limited. You will build thatched huts around for the time being.” Speaking of this, he glanced at the old people around him, the small ones, and the conversation turned again. Said: “This mountain has been wet for many years. If you want to live a better life in the future, just follow my family’s construction method.”
There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and an old man walked out tremblingly, “Master, the little one naturally wants to build a house like yours, but the little one has never seen it before.”
Never seen it before, so naturally it will not be built.
Qi You was right when he thought about it, “This house is not difficult to build. If you don’t understand, come and ask me.”
“Since that’s all for today, I will deal with the matter together. You have hundreds of people, young and old, and it is impossible for one person to build a house.”
There is no objection below, this is perfectly normal.
Qi You: “So, I’ll give you a little time. The five of you stand together. From now on, the five of you will live in the same house.”
! ! !
A group of old people and children were dumbfounded, and they didn’t understand how things developed like this.
Qi You: “Hurry up.”
Qi You urged.
The people underneath were afraid that they would slow down, be beaten and scolded by the master, and look around. As long as the people who have seen around, they basically stood in a pile with those people.
The crowd soon divided into small piles, a total of ninety-eight people, twenty small piles.
What’s interesting is that the man whose hand was abolished by him yesterday got together with two other mature men, but looking at the expression, the other two didn’t accept him very much, but in the same way, other people didn’t accept it very much either. Two mature men. So the three people got together.
Qi You took out a pen and paper, recalling the topography of the mountain in his mind, and quickly established where these people would settle in in the future.
