Back Off, Let Me Come

Taking the name "Zi" is a good word, but the meaning of Yu Zi's name is not very good - "evil purple seizes the vermilion" is taken from an article in "The Analects" of the Ling Dynasty - "evil purple seizes the vermilion; evil Zheng" The sound that disturbs the elegant music is also caused; the bad words bring down the country and the family.

"Purple" means defect.

It is not a normal color, but a five-color defect.

"Zhu" is the positive color, and "purple" is the mixed color.

Therefore, this "purple" is also given the meaning of "heresy" and "evil" in the eyes of the world. Yu Zi knew this but still took the name "Zi", but the village and the "grandma" were also named "Zhu", which shows her stubbornness and determination.

If Heyin belongs to the poor mountains and poor waters, then Zhujia Village is the "best" in the poor mountains and poor waters. Most of the terraced fields cultivated near the village are poor fields with medium to low fertility, and there are few good fields.

Dozens of households in one village live in the mountains.

The village is extremely remote.

Because it is inconvenient to get in and out, except for those who go out to "do business", ordinary villagers have to wait until the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month to go to the market before leaving the village. They use the crops they grow at home in exchange for rice, grain, money or other needs. At first glance, it seems similar to It’s no different from an ordinary village.

When Kang Shi brought people over, he saw the smoke rising from the scattered huts in the village. Looking around, there were three or two women in thin clothes bent over, picking up weeds in the fields. A dozen men were sitting at the end of the village, laughing and talking about something.

They saw Kang Shi and his party from a distance.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Kang Shi.

There was more curiosity and scrutiny on his face.

No fear or fear.

Zhujia Village rarely sees a few strangers throughout the year, unless the son of a family wants to marry a bride when he reaches his age.

When did you see so many new faces at once?

In the past, the people I dealt with were common people dressed in coarse linen and linen clothes. But this was the first time I saw elegant scholars like this young man wearing brocade clothes and wearing jade rings. There were dozens of people behind them, and it was the biggest scene they had ever seen in their lives.

Soon someone turned around to invite Muramasa. Muramasa was old, prestigious, and the most knowledgeable person in the village.

Muramasa lives near Cuntou and will arrive soon.

Kang Shi secretly looked at the layout of the village.

When he saw the village chief, he didn't talk nonsense and directly showed the document with the seal of the governor of Heyin County to the village chief: "The governor wants to build Fugu City, and the city is in urgent need of manpower. He ordered me to go to various villages to recruit people. I'd like to trouble the village chief. Everyone in the village, old and young, shouted out."

Muramasa was a little surprised when he heard this.

In my heart, I frowned and beat my drum with worry.

Will corvee be levied again?

Muramasa respectfully took the document, but did not go down immediately to follow it. Instead, he asked about his doubts: "It's not that the common people doubted the messenger, it's just that Zhujia Village has no information and does not communicate with the outside world. I don't know when He Yin came again." A new Sheriff?”

Kang Shi replied: "My Lord has not been in office for a long time and is very busy with secular affairs. He has not yet had time to issue documents to notify various places within his jurisdiction."

Muramasa heard this and said no more.

It sounds like this new county governor is really new.

However, he has been the village mayor of Zhujia Village for more than 20 years, and has seen much more than the mud-legged people in the village. The word "county governor" sounds very powerful, but the county governor in Heyin is actually a A useless flower stand.

Not only is it useless, it's also very short-lived.

"The envoy will wait for a moment, let's go and do it now." Muramasa felt quite scornful in his heart, and asked, "But, how long will the corvee be served this time?"

Kangshi was still an old fox at a young age. He could see at a glance the perfunctory thoughts underneath Muramasa's seemingly worried face, so he smiled again and said: "This time it is not a corvee. My Lord spent a lot of money to recruit hungry people, but the manpower is still insufficient, so he ordered me to Come here."

"If Muramasa can help me recruit one more person, I can get ten more silver for hire." Kang Shi took out a large piece of broken silver from his sleeve.

Muramasa's heart skipped a beat.

He lowered his voice and said, "Is the envoy serious?"

Kang Shi said: "Of course it is true."

When Muramasa heard this, he suppressed his racing heart, suppressed the greed that was about to burst out, and pretended to be worried.

Kang Shi also talked about how much food a person could earn by working for five hours a day. The people who were watching the excitement and eavesdropping not far away became jealous. Muramasa was completely convinced. The weather is now cold and the first snow has fallen. People in Zhujia Village, old and young, are sitting at home doing nothing. They only come out to bask in the sun when the weather is nice.

It is completely a state of sitting back and having nothing to gain, only getting out but not getting in.

The harvest has been getting worse and worse in recent years.

The amount of rice paid in is increasing.

Every household is too poor to open the pot.

He read the document carefully. He didn't know much about reading, so it was a bit difficult to read it, but he could understand it, and it was exactly what the messenger said. Muramasa spread the news and asked every household to bring people out to gather.

He also returned home to find his son.

Tell the old lady about the good things.

The old woman looked hesitant.

"Yao'er is going too?"

Muramasa said: "Of course I have to go."

The old woman said: "But my daughter-in-law has only been here for a month and a half, and her stomach hasn't moved yet. My son is about to go out..."

The Muramasa family has three sons.

The eldest son and the second son have already married and separated, and the younger son just got a new wife a few days ago. In order to have children as soon as possible and carry on the family line, I listened to the Muramasa and his wife and stayed in the house with my new wife every day. It was a leisurely time for farming and there was nothing else to do.

Muramasa was silent for a long time after hearing this.

In order to solve the life-long problem of their younger son, the two elders, the eldest and the second child all worked together to find a youngest and daughter-in-law.

Because of the small amount of money given to her, this youngest daughter-in-law has given birth to cubs twice, and she is no longer just a young lady.

Neither they nor the youngest were satisfied with this.

But some people said that the youngest daughter-in-law's two cubs from her previous family were both healthy, white and fat boys. She had a huge butt and could give birth to a grandson with just a move of her legs. She said it was effortless and not squeamish at all. If you weren't old, would you still want to buy it with this little money?

Muramasa hesitated for a long time before gritting his teeth and buying it.

Now I hope that the youngest daughter-in-law will be able to live up to her expectations and give birth to two children. After his death, he will be able to rest in peace and see his ancestors.

Thinking of this, Muramasa felt a little regretful.

What's a pity?

It's a pity that the pretty widow died a few years ago.

If that thing hadn't happened, I could have shamelessly asked my old brother about it, and asked that old brother's pretty widowed daughter-in-law to be my youngest daughter-in-law. That way I would have saved money and still have a free and enlightened gentleman... …

Tsk tsk.

It's a pity that the youngest hadn't grown up yet at that time.

He squinted at the old woman and said fiercely: "What do you know?"

Then he said: "Call the youngest here."

The villagers in Zhujia Village also said that the good news was passed down. After a while, someone came to ask if it was true or not. When they found out that it was true, they showed a simple and silly smile on their faces and said: "I want one too, I have the strength." Mighty at work.”

A fellow villager smiled and said, "Just you?"

I don’t know how many people to recruit, but if I recruit the best from them all, if I only select the best few, then everyone around me will be competitors.

He was annoyed: "Why can't I do it?"

Another villager laughed and said, "How come you can do that? How long has your wife been here and she's still taking advantage of her?"

Zhujiacun held two marriages this year.

One is the youngest son of the Muramasa family.

One is this man.

Yao'er is much younger than this man, and his wife is already obedient. The couple stay at home every day without seeing anyone, but this man, on the other hand, is scratched by his wife every day, leaving a wound on his left side and a scar on his right side. It was so loud that everyone in the village knew about it.

The man became angry from embarrassment: "Humph, she behaved yesterday."

Another person said: "If we brothers hadn't given you some advice, would she have behaved? The daughter-in-law you bought is going to be beaten to death. If she is beaten too much, she will become obedient. You provide for her, She just rubs your nose in your face and wants to steal someone..."

The man looked educated.

I humbly asked for advice: "Brother, please teach me a few more tricks."

He only married such a man when he was older. He originally wanted to treat him well, but he didn't like him at all, and secretly hooked up with brothers of the same race who had studied in the village.

If his brothers from the same race hadn't snitched on him, he wouldn't have known that this dishonest woman was stealing someone. The more he thought about it when he went back last night, the more angry he became, so he ruthlessly used the tricks he had learned, and it really worked.

I was also a little annoyed that I had used it too late.

The five senses of literary scholars are beyond ordinary people.

These people have loud voices and talk loudly.

He heard every word clearly.

Yu Zi, who was dressed as a servant, watched his brows tighten, and the anger between his brows became stronger. She was surprised and confused at first, but she vaguely guessed it when she saw the familiar villagers gathering together to laugh and chat.

Kang Shi asked her, "Has it always been like this?"

Yu Zi said: "It was... slightly better before."

When adults talk, they rarely avoid children.

Yu Zi also knew which family was brought by a serious marriage and which one was brought by a prostitute. In general, there were two families out of ten. But now they are getting poorer and poorer. When women from other villages hear about Zhujia Village, they know how poor they are and how they cannot get married seriously.

There may not be anyone willing to exchange a woman from the family for a marriage partner.

If you can't marry, you can only count on selling someone out.

Yu Zi had been away from Zhujia Village for many years, and she didn't know how many new faces there were in the village, and her expression darkened slightly.

Kang Shi said: "What's the difference between bad and very bad?"

Of course Yu Zi knew there was no difference.

We waited for about half an hour.

Because Kang Shi said that there is a very shortage of manpower, anyone who can still work in the fields can give it a try. If he is not selected, he can still get three days of rations. Wouldn't it be a pity not to waste such a good opportunity?

Regardless of age, everyone who can breathe and walk is here.

Kang Shi's eyebrows gradually relaxed.

Wen Sheng asked Muramasa: "Just a few people?"

Cun Zheng is holding a roll of household registers of everyone in the village.

He said sincerely: "Basically everything is here."

Kang Shi took it and found that the words on it were unexpectedly beautiful. The font looked like that of a boudoir's daughter. There was a bit of romantic freehand in the writing, and the charm was rare. It was not like what Muramasa, an old man, could write.

"Your word is really good."

Yu Zi's face on one side darkened.

because--

The old villager smiled and said: "The reply to the messenger was written by a widow in the village. It is a great honor to be praised by the messenger."

When Kang Shi heard this, the smile faded from his lips.

He basically guessed who the widow was.

"Where are people?"

Old Muramasa said: "The person is no longer here."

"Oh, I was offended."

Kang Shi covered the scroll and handed the scroll to Yu Zi, whose eyes were red silently. He glanced at the crowd and asked, "Is anyone here?"

This is a stupid question.

Muramasa thought he was asking himself.

Don't know how to answer.

What "people can be here"?

Yu Zi didn't understand it at first, but she inherited her mother's intelligence, and after briefly recalling Kang Shi's actions, she figured it out.

She restrained her eyes and tried not to show hatred. She glanced at the familiar and older faces in the crowd with her peripheral vision, nodded heavily, and replied, "They are all here."

The adopted baby "Xianghuo" is also there.

He was as careless as before, looking up to the sky.

Yu Zi just heard the two elders discussing that their precious grandson would be fourteen next year and it was time to help him see his granddaughter-in-law.

He even mentioned Yu Zi, saying that the boy next to the envoy was handsome and looked familiar, but unfortunately he was too thin. If he were fatter, he would still be a girl, and he would be a good match for his grandson. They plan to do some work, save some money, and find a small dealer to check out the goods in the spring.

Yu Zi's lips moved slightly after hearing this.

I didn't feel any hatred at that moment, I just felt ridiculous.

Kangshi nodded, stood up and waved, under Muramasa's eyes that turned from joy to suspicion, he said that sentence——

"As long as we are all here! Take down all these people!"

Along with dozens of people, Wen Qi surged out from under his feet, and a Wen Qi wall was built around him.

This incident scared everyone.

They all came to gather happily after hearing the good news. They didn't have anything in their hands, and they couldn't run away even if they wanted to - they didn't get kicked to the ground after taking two steps, and they screamed in pain. It just bounced back from the wall of Wenqi.

Fight with all your might?

The knife was already placed on the side of their neck.

What if you try to grab a knife?

A scream penetrated their eardrums without warning.

Looking around, a man had three fingers cut off from his left hand! Holding the blood-soaked palm, veins bulged out in pain, and he rolled around on the ground. This scene shocked everyone. Muramasa was captured and shouted: "Are you not the messenger?"

Kang Shi said: "I am."

"We're also here to recruit people."

"It's just that I don't pay."

"I won't give you the money, but I want the people."

Kang Shi didn't bother to look at him and curled his fingers.

He ordered in a cold voice: "Take them all away. Anyone who resists will have his hands chopped off first and then refuses to listen. If he still refuses to listen, his ears will be cut off. His eyes and feet will be gouged out!"

Every word is full of terrifying murderous intent.

It also released some pressure.

When had these unscrupulous people seen this battle?

Coupled with the coercion and oppression, let alone resistance, both hands and feet were frightened. They were all tied up behind their backs and strung together.

After the task was completed, Kang Shi stood up and flicked away the dust collected here, then got on his horse and said, "Mrs. Yu."

Yu Zi was still immersed in the shock of feeling Wen Qi up close. She remembered that it was this thing that subdued her to the ground last time, and she couldn't escape. This is--

The power of Wen Xin?

One person trapped dozens of families in Zhujia Village.

Yu Zi remembered that there were many of these people who could hold down the runaway woman at home with one hand and beat her to death. They were very strong, and being targeted by them was like being entangled in a spider web. They could no longer escape. What they faced was being A life-long desperate situation!

And Kang Shi, who was judged by her to be "polite and polite, and unable to fight at a glance", restrained everyone by just standing there (actually he was not)! At that moment, she heard a loud beating in her chest, and her desire for power ignited her ambition.

"Xiaomin is here."

"The petition is ready."

Yu Zilang said: "It's written."

Just lay it in her arms.

With her body temperature.

It is also stained with the blood and tears of my grandmother for half her life.

Yu Zi looked back at the people in Zhujia Village who were crying and in chaos. She had never felt that her body was so light as it was today, as if there was a warm and kind force in the dark.

It was holding her body.

Kang Shi pointed his sword at a song: "Follow up."

_(:з)∠)_

Finally finished.
