Raising the Demon

Chapter 160 In the blink of an eye, sister-in-law becomes aunt
Zi Baifeng followed Ding Sanji around Xiding Township, with koi and cloud boats on his way. In one day, he visited almost all the villages in Xiding Township. Everywhere you go, you can see poor mountains and rivers everywhere, which really corresponds to the song "Mountains and rivers are dry and lifeless" sung in Huaguli.

When it was dark, Zi Baifeng finished his inspection and returned to the pier in Xiding Township.

When he left in the morning, he asked Hong Guniang, "Would you like to find a place to settle down?"

"Yes!" Hong Guniang immediately nodded and agreed without any hesitation.

The life of wandering and wandering is really too difficult. I really don't want to live any more days of worrying and fearing day and night.

However, after agreeing, Hong Guniang hesitated again. In this world, where is there a place where they can live in peace?Even if he settles down, he may end up leaving his hometown with hunger just like the last time in Ding Yang.

"Sister..." Ding Gui, the fisherman, muttered and wanted to say something, but he didn't know whether to persuade or stop him.

Zi Baifeng glanced at him, seeming to understand his thoughts, Ding Gui's dark face immediately turned into red-hot coal balls, black and red.

"I know what you're worried about, but Hui'er is still young, and it's better to live a good life for a few years than to travel all the way, isn't it?"

Zi Baifeng knows what he promises, and others may not believe it, but the current situation is that facts speak louder than words.

Ding Gui stood at the pier, and said to the red drum girl who got on the koi cloud boat: "Sister..."

"Big brother."

"If you settle down, I'll take two fish to see you." In the end, Ding Gui also said this.

Red Guniang smiled, but said nothing.

The promise is too heavy, who can bear it?

Who dares to ask for too much?
In the early morning, there was a thumping drum sound on the bluestone.

Today, Zi Baifeng did not go to the Mengcheng mansion as scheduled, but ordered someone to pick up the mother and son of the red drum girl early in the morning, and performed his own flower drum on the bluestone.

Little Shitou pulled Hui'er to share his snacks with her, and after a while, Hui'er started to call his brother one by one, and they were very close.

Zi Baifeng looked at it with a smile, this little guy is much stronger than himself, Qiu'er left Mengcheng Mansion and went to Quzhou Mansion before, Xiao Shitou was sad for a while, now it seems that he may have caught another little wife.

Zijian went out early in the morning to get busy. He just came back with soy milk and fried dough sticks in his hand. Jiuyan Town has gradually become prosperous. The business is not booming, but it is getting better gradually. The villagers in Jiuyan Township are now almost the wealthiest in Mengcheng, and they are regular customers. Later, the early stalls were simply moved to the entrance of Xiayan Village, which made it much more convenient. .Zi Baifeng occasionally rewarded the little guys with a few copper coins, and they all spent them here in different ways.

The hot meat buns, crispy biscuits, and crispy fried dough sticks are all better than the last one.

Seeing that there was an extra flower drum singer at home, Zijian greeted with a smile, handed the breakfast to Zi Wu, and listened by himself, beating the time from time to time, and singing a few lines together.

But as he listened, his brows were wrinkled, his eyes wandered back and forth from the flower drum and the red drum girl, and gradually he couldn't move his eyes away.

Hong Guniang also gradually stopped playing the drum in her hand, and stared at Zijian.

Zi Wu pushed Zi Jian beside him, a little bit offended, looking at him like this, that would be too rude, but Zi Jian didn't seem to realize it, stood up, and said in a trembling voice: "Girl, let me see you drum?"

Hearing what he said, Hong Guniang took the drum up from the drum stand with trembling hands, who would have thought that her hands were shaking so much that she accidentally fell down.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Zi Baifeng stretched out his hand and took the drum in his hand. He looked around first, then handed it to Zijian suspiciously.

Zijian picked up the drum, hugged it tightly, and searched around, but the more anxious he became, the more he couldn't find it.

"Under the drum ring..." Red Guniang said in a trembling voice.

Zijian turned over the drum and took a look, then dropped the drum, rushed up, and hugged Hong Guniang.

"Wow!" Hui'er cried out in fright, kicked Zijian from behind, and cried loudly, "Don't bully my mother! Don't bully my mother!"

"Mom, Dad doesn't want you anymore." Xiao Shitou added insult to injury beside him.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zi Baifeng took another stride, caught the flower drum, and hit the little stone on the head with a bang, then turned the drum over and saw that there was a flower drum on the flower drum. There is a word "Zi" under the ring of the drum, and then I showed the drum to Zi Wu. The father and mother have been in love for ten years before they cultivated the fruit, so don't let the parents have conflicts.

Zi Wu grabbed the drum, looked left and right, and then looked at Zi Jian and Hong Gu Niang who were hugging and crying bitterly, her eyes were also red, she stepped forward and pulled Hui'er, saying: "Hui'er, be good, Hui'er!" Don't cry..."

Zijian and Hong Guniang cried for a while, then stopped their voices, Zijian wiped his tears and turned his head, and said to Zi Baifeng: "Baifeng, come quickly, this is your aunt, your little sister!"

Zi Baifeng blinked his eyes, what kind of trick is this?In the blink of an eye, sister-in-law becomes sister-in-law?
After a period of chaos, everyone calmed down and sat down in front of the table.

Zijian stretched out his hand, stroked Hong Guniang's somewhat disheveled hair, and pulled Hui'er into his arms again, tears flashed in his eyes again.

The little girl who ran away from famine for ten years and only followed her back then is now a mother, her face is full of weather, 23 or 40 years old, a woman in her prime, but she looks like she is in her [-]s or [-]s.

But in Zijian's eyes, the girl in front of him is still the little girl who made trouble with him back then.

Red Guniang rested her head in Zijian's arms and looked up at Zijian. Ten years had passed, but Zijian seemed to be the same as ten years ago. His generous chest was still so warm. Don't worry anymore.

However, Hong Guniang is always worried that this is a dream. How could it be possible that after ten years, brother has not changed at all?It just seems that the eyes are firmer, the voice is thicker, and there are no wrinkles on the face.

"Baifeng, do you remember? When you were young, it was your aunt who watched you." Zijian said, Zijian had said this sentence three or four times, he was so excited that he didn't know what to say.Zi Baifeng could only nod his head, no matter how talented he was, it was impossible for him to remember things before he was one year old. When he was a little over one year old, his sister-in-law married off, and when he came back occasionally, he couldn't remember clearly.

"This is Bai Feng." With red eyes, the red drum girl took Zi Baifeng's hands and rubbed Zi Baifeng's hands in her own rough hands. When he found some gift for meeting, he took off a hairpin from his head and said: "Baifeng, auntie has nothing for you as a gift for meeting, this hairpin is the dowry my brother bought for me when I got married, I will give it to you, wait for you If you have someone you like, give it to her..." Hong Guniang suddenly smiled and shook her head, "What am I talking about, we Xiaofeng, what kind of character is that, how can Xiaofeng's lover like such a hairpin... ..."

Zi Baifeng took it solemnly, and from Hong Guniang's eyes, he saw that it was a heartfelt love.

"Sister, come here." Zi Wu took Hong Guniang's hand, reported Huier again, and went to her room. Xiao Shitou wanted to follow, but was kicked out by his mother. Running to Zijian's side, he pouted aggrievedly.

When they came out of the room, Zijian's mood had calmed down. Hong Guniang changed into Wu's clothes, pulled up her hair, changed a hairpin, put on some makeup, and Hui'er washed her face. She looks cuter with rouge.

"Let's go, brother will take you out for a stroll." Zi Baifeng stretched out his hand and held Hui'er, and Xiao Shitou quickly followed.

The three went directly to Mengcheng, Zi Baifeng took Huier and bought a lot of clothes and toys for Huier. When they returned to Qingshi, Zijian and the three were still reminiscing about the past. No one remembers to eat.

"Your father is a stubborn old man. When I was young, he didn't let me learn flower drums, and beat me several times." Hong Guniang said to Zi Baifeng, "Fortunately, I didn't listen to him."

Zi Baifeng was speechless for a moment, it turned out that he was so old-fashioned in the past, and there was also a genetic element in it.

However, he understood the reason why his father did not allow his younger sister to learn flower drums. After all, his daughter's family was not good at such publicity. Who would have thought that in the end, it would be this skill that allowed their mother and son to survive?

"My father also sang flower drums." Zi Baifeng said, but he exposed his father's shortcomings. When they had no place to beg for a living, they had to beg. When begging, Zijian sang flower drums, but he just beat his broken bowl.

"Father, there is no distinction between high and low craftsmanship, don't you think so? Besides, who dares to bully my aunt!" Zi Baifeng said to Zi Jian, then turned to look at Hong Guniang again. "Sister-in-law, please sing me a few more verses, I love to hear it."

Zi Baifeng didn't hide it from his father, he simply explained some of his thoughts, and then the thumping flower drum rang again, and soon attracted many villagers to listen. In the circle, it's right to be the red drum girl singing.

No worries, no worries, I found the backbone of the red drum girl, and took out the tricks. The flower drum sang hype, one song after another, with the same libretto, and sang for more than an hour. The voice was a little hoarse before it stopped.

Zijian was also happy, and was busy distributing melon seeds and snacks to everyone. Yan Laowu moved a stool and sat in the front to listen. Come on, sing us a string."

Red Gu Niang generously agreed, but Zi Baifeng grabbed Yan Laowu who was about to leave, and asked, "A big show? Why didn't I know there was a big show in the village?"

"Hmph, you are the lord now, how do you know about our little Xiayan Village?"
