Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

The veterans all nodded, and the old man led Zhuzhu to call people one by one.

Zhuzhu's milky voice is milky, she is very delicate, but she has good rules.At this moment, her big eyes were crooked as she smiled, and the veterans heard her uncle's words, wishing they could tear their hearts out.

Just talking and laughing like this, the veterans finished their first meal when they came to Tai's house.

At this time, the courtyard door was knocked again.

Tai Jizu was startled and hurried to open the door, then led Mr. Tai and several villagers in.

It turned out that the villagers on the patrol team noticed that there was movement in the Tai family and lit oil lamps. They were afraid that someone would cause trouble, so they hurriedly asked Mr. Tai for advice.

Mr. Tai welcomed everyone into the house. He felt relieved when he saw that several villagers were close to his family and were doing things safely.

"Third brother, I specially invited these ten veterans back from the border army. From now on, the safety of our village and the children's learning skills will all depend on them."

After that, he introduced to the veterans, "This is the patriarch of our Taijia Village, and the others are the brothers and sisters who are trustworthy in the village. We will get along with each other for a long time in the future, so don't be restrained. They are our own family."

The veterans hurriedly greeted each other with the villagers. Mr. Tai was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear when he saw how tough the veterans were.

The villagers are even more excited. They said earlier that they would find someone to teach the naughty boys in the village some skills. Now that the masters have arrived, there are still so many of them.

Uncle Six is ​​simply too reliable!
The old man glanced at the sky outside, not wanting to make more noise and attract too many people's attention.

He whispered, "The mute ran away before. I guess he will come back for revenge. For the time being, Brother He Shan and the others cannot show their faces in the village. It is better to live in the ancestral hall for the time being and protect the village secretly."

"After some time, we will also build the ancestral hall. Then we will build a separate courtyard for them so that they can live comfortably."

"Sure!" Mr. Tai immediately agreed, "I cleaned it briefly before, but the ancestral hall is not dirty, but there are no beddings and other items."

"This is easy to handle. Our family is already ready."

Mr. Tai called his daughters-in-law to get the bedding. There was no shortage of cashmere in the house. Yang Lihua and Liu Dongniang made the bedding when they had free time. They could use it at any time in case the family went out or had guests.

"As for eating," the old man said again, "I can only bear the hardships of my brothers for a few days. I will ask my stepfather or stepfather to deliver the food in the morning and evening, and I will eat solid food at noon."

He Shan and others quickly waved their hands and responded one after another.

"That's good enough."

"Yeah, we don't get hot meals at the border."

"Yes, as long as you can eat enough."

Third Master Tai was attentive and added, "Then I will talk to the patrol in private and let them recognize the person, so as to avoid further conflicts in the middle of the night."

After this discussion, bedding and other supplies were prepared.

The patrol team continued to patrol, and Tai Sanye took He Shan and others to the ancestral hall quietly.

None of Mr. Tai and his son followed. At times like this, the smaller the movement, the less noticeable it is...

When they got up early in the morning, the Tai family members were all a little out of energy, after all, they had been working hard for half the night.But everyone feels much more at ease!
The people in the village are united and dare to fight when something goes wrong, but in the end they are not capable enough.

Now that He Shan and others have arrived, one person can hold up to ten people, and they are not afraid of blood. It is so reassuring.

Just after breakfast, Manager Min and Manager Wu arrived together. Naturally, they came to deliver the holiday gift for their master.

Tai Yongning accompanied his grandfather and met with the two stewards.

Mrs. Min is the head mother of the house and knows very well what she needs to live her life, so the festive gifts she sent were as affordable as ever, including rice, noodles, vegetable oil, chicken, fish, meat, eggs and spirits, as well as four pieces of comfortable and breathable summer cotton. The colors were very plain and suitable for women. Make a lining or cut a gown for Yongning.

Mrs. Wu also gave some food, but mostly pens, ink and paper. This was for Yongning’s needs so that the family would not have to spend money on them.

Manager Min also returned the gift. He brought two jars of preserved fruits, two jars of wine, and a leg of lamb, intending to have a good drink with the old man.He has been a slave of the Min family since he was a child, but his parents passed away early and the children are not here, so he can be said to be alone.

Since I met the Tai family, from the initial use to recognition, to the current closeness, it is really an unexpected fate.

Occasionally, when he has free time, he is willing to come to Tai's house to sit and feel the warmth and fireworks of home.

He was also happy to hear the old man chattering a few words. If his father was still alive, he would probably be like this.

Manager Wu chatted and joked with everyone for a long time, but in the end he went back to the city without staying for dinner.

The old man wanted his daughter-in-law to roast a leg of lamb, but he also felt that the house was so smoky that it would be embarrassing to have the children from the village drooling under the door.

Simply, he invited Manager Min to visit his mountain cabin.

Manager Min has long heard that the Tai family has a wooden house in the mountains, but he has never been to it.

Of course I was happy to accept the opportunity this time. It was a rare pleasure to have barbecue and drink in the mountains.

Zhuzhu was even more happy, running around happily with the sesame ball, showing off to Manager Min from time to time.

"Uncle Min, the rabbits roasted by my grandpa are delicious! Let grandpa bake one for you, just share the thighs between me and Sesame Ball!"

Manager Min laughed when he heard this and said, "Okay, if you want to eat it, I can give you the whole rabbit. But catching the rabbit is too troublesome. Let's roast the leg of lamb first today!"

"It's not troublesome. There are a lot of rabbits on the mountain. They will all come to give Zhuzhu meat!" The fat girl waved her little fat hands nonchalantly, making Manager Min laugh even harder.

He didn't know the fat girl's magical ability. He just thought that the old man was a good hunter, which gave the girl the illusion that rabbits were easy to catch.

Of course the Tai family would not tell the truth.

So, soon the old man carried Zhuzhu on his back and led Guanshi Min up the mountain, Sesame Ball running ahead to clear the way.

Tai Jizu made a special trip to the ancestral hall, and He Shan took two soldiers and sneaked into the forest to protect him secretly.

When we arrived at the wooden house, a bonfire was set up, and the leg of lamb was roasting with oil.

Mr. Tai and Manager Min were full of wine, chatting, eating and drinking lively.

Zhuzhu and sesame balls divided the meat, and their mouths were full of oil.

Finally, the jug of wine was drained, and only the bones of the lamb leg were left, which were bitten into pieces by the sesame balls and entered into the stomach.

Manager Min was feeling dizzy and walking a little unsteadily, so the old man helped him into the house to take a nap.

Zhuzhu yelled outside the door, "Grandpa, let's go see grandma?"

The old man went out, smiled, carried his granddaughter on his back, and continued climbing up the mountain.

The old lady's grave was well taken care of, with only scattered weeds.

The old man slowly pulled out the weeds, gave his wife a few snacks, then hugged his granddaughter and sat in front of the grave, looking at the valley in the distance again.

The valley in early summer is quiet and quiet. Occasionally, birds fly over at low altitude, and their crisp chirps echo in the valley.

In the forest behind the tomb, He Shan was sitting on a big tree, looking at the old and the young, frowning slightly.

Mr. He Qian couldn't have guessed wrong. No matter how you look at the Tai family, they are all down-to-earth and honest people, and there is nothing wrong with them.

How could it be possible to keep such a huge secret... (End of chapter)
