Chapter 3 Jumping into the Yellow River Now I Can't Clean It Up(1/2)
Autumn is cold and cold, and the leaves are spinning and falling under the double blow of strong wind and cold rain.
The rain stopped for a while, but an unstoppable chill came.
An autumn rain and a cold.
This is true!
Huang Tinghui finally understood how ancient people survived the harsh winter.
Poor people will die if they freeze to death.
Naturally, some people can make it through, and some can't.
It's just that history books always praise virtues, so who would record the winter of such-and-such a year?
How many people and animals froze to death in some villages?
After finally coaxing the little girl to sleep, Huang Tinghui covered the little girl with the only quilt in the house.
Mother hands line, wandering clothing.
This quilt must have been sewn by the original owner’s mother for Huang Tinghui during her lifetime.
The original owner had a pedantic temperament and had a high self-esteem. In the eyes of the villagers, he was a complete bastard.
However, the clothes and bedding left by my parents were not thrown away.
I think it was after experiencing the ups and downs of human relationships in the world that I finally realized how good my parents were to me.
On the simple bed, the little girl slept soundly.
Huang Tinghui was really embarrassed to be squeezed together with this well-developed little girl.
How old is she?
No more than sixteen.
This will be considered in later generations as "three years starting, maximum death penalty."
Even though there are not many constraints in this era, Huang Tinghui cannot overcome the hurdle in his heart.
After closing the door tightly, Huang Tinghui turned and walked towards the kitchen.
The embers in the stove were slightly extinguished, and Huang Tinghui added a few firewood inside.
The "cracking" sound of burning came over, and the rice straw stored in the kitchen was wrapped around himself.
Only then did I feel a little warm.
With the warmth brought by the flame, Huang Tinghui, who wrapped himself in rice straw, fell into a deep sleep.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sky became brighter.
The sleepy Huang Tinghui rubbed his eyes.
Um!
On the nth day after traveling to the Great Sheng Dynasty, I successfully survived another night.
I am really an invincible little strongman.
For the first time, Huang Tinghui looked at his own vitality with admiration.
After stretching, Huang Tinghui took a ladle of cold water and washed his face.
The whole person suddenly woke up.
"Tinghui!"
"Tinghui!!" There was a sound of slapping the wooden fence. Huang Tinghui's neck shrank, feeling a little guilty.
But the voice sounded unusually familiar, and it shouldn't be those people collecting debts.
It’s okay if it’s not.
Huang Tinghui carefully opened the kitchen door, stuck his head out and looked out.
I saw a tall, well-built man standing at the wooden fence of the thatched house.
"Second uncle?" Huang Tinghui called.
The second uncle was stunned for a moment when he heard Huang Tinghui's name. He obviously didn't expect Huang Tinghui to call him that.
As the only "scholar" in the village, he grew up in a honeypot.
Huang Tinghui's second uncle, Zhu Zhu, understood that Huang Tinghui's eyes were higher than his head and he thought highly of himself.
He is also extremely pedantic and extremely unfilial.
The family property left by his brother and sister-in-law was completely destroyed by this prodigal son in just a short time.
Sneaking around, visiting brothels, entering casinos...
It can be said that it has all five poisons.
If it weren't for my brother and sister-in-law, they would be very good to me.
Huang Tinghui is the only son left by his brother and sister-in-law.
Zhuzi didn't want to worry about this useless nephew.
"Second uncle, what's the matter?" Huang Tinghui looked at his second uncle with some anxiety.
In my impression, the person that the gangster Huang Tinghui fears the most is Uncle Erzhu.
This is probably because Huang Tinghui was severely beaten by his second uncle when he was a child.
It probably left some psychological shadow.
"This is for you!" Uncle Erzhu said to Huang Tinghui angrily.
At this time, Huang Tinghui discovered that his second uncle was holding the furs of two silver-furred foxes.
The silver-furred fox was dead, with a sharp weapon pierced through the fox's eyes.
Killed the fox just right.
Uncle Erzhu followed Huang Tinghui's grandfather to the mountains to hunt since he was a child, and he learned to be good at archery.
This arrow killed the silver-furred fox and preserved the integrity of the silver-furred fox's skin.
If these two fox skins were sold in the market, the price would definitely be more than two guan.
Huang Tinghui was stunned for a moment when he looked at the silver-haired fox handed over by Uncle Er Zhu. How could he have imagined that his cold-faced and warm-hearted Second Uncle would give such a good thing to him.
But I think Uncle Erzhu also knew that Huang Tinghui owed a bad debt behind his back.
He also helped his nephew in this way.
No matter what, Huang Tinghui is the only son of his brother and sister-in-law.
He is also his own nephew.
Uncle Erzhu really couldn't stand by and watch.
After all, he is one of Huang Tinghui's few relatives.
"Second uncle, thank you!"
Huang Tinghui's heart felt warm and he walked forward quickly.
Hearing these two words coming out of his "bastard" nephew's mouth, Uncle Erzhu was stunned for a moment, feeling that something was not right.
After looking at Huang Tinghui for a while, Uncle Erzhu finally couldn't help but said: "It doesn't matter if the house is gone, the land my brother and sister-in-law left for you."
"We don't have much in Huangjia Village, but we still have a lot of land!"
"You open up a wasteland nearby and get a vegetable garden."
"Slowly calm down your mind and stop following those gangsters. Life will gradually get better!"
"Second uncle will find a way to solve the money matter for you!"
"Don't tell your aunt about the fox fur, or she'll make trouble with me!"
"In a few days, the old lady of Landlord Chen's family in Chenjiazhuang will celebrate her birthday. Landlord Chen is looking for novelty things to give to his mother."
"Although these pair of fox skins are not much, they should be able to sell for a good price when the time comes."
"You have to listen to what the second uncle says. In a while, the second uncle will save some money for you so that you can get a little wife."
"By giving my brother and sister-in-law a queen, I can be considered worthy of my poor brother and sister-in-law."
Seemingly sensing some "changes" in his nephew Huang Tinghui, the second uncle said to Huang Tinghui earnestly.
"Sister-in-law Liu from Murakami has been a matchmaker and knows girls from all over the country. You are also handsome. As long as you are willing to change, there are still many girls who are willing..."
"You don't have to worry about this, second uncle..."
Only a "squeaking" sound was heard.
Uncle Erzhu, who was still chattering, suddenly stopped talking and stared not far away with his mouth open.
Huang Tinghui, who listened carefully to Uncle Erzhu's chatter, suddenly realized something.
To be continued...
