Reborn Plunder

At this time, Qingyuan County was like a jade pearl buried in the soil for many years, surrounded by old soil that had not been cleaned up, and was trapped in a cloud of gray.

Liang Jin and Cheng Hao stood on the street and watched people covered in black and ash guarding a black thing. When the time came, there was a "bang" sound, and a sweet smell came. Popcorn is the most common snack at this time. The adults in the family took the corn and gave a few cents, and when it was ready, they took it home for the children to eat.There are also some children who wait aside and pick the fish that slipped through the net. The adults will not care about them, just take a look and continue to talk about themselves.

Cheng Hao asked him, "Want to eat?"

Liang Jin shook his head with a smile. In a few years, these common things will gradually fade into memory, and they will even feel novel when they see them by chance.Everything that people envy now will be nothing more than that when they are easily obtained in the future.

Cheng Hao walked to the department store, saw that the place was spacious, and said with a smile: "How about I set up a stall here? Although there are not more people than there, there are still many people. Word of mouth spreads slowly. Set up a stall there to let people think that we are deliberately fighting with him."

Liang Jin felt that Cheng Hao was the right person to eat this bowl of rice. In his previous life, he set up his stall in this place, and his business was very hot, but he didn't know how he would live in the next few decades.

Liang Jin hesitated and asked, "Cheng Hao, what are your plans for the future? You have been in our village for many years, don't you miss your family?"

Cheng Hao froze slightly, except for his adoptive father who kindly took him in, no one knew about his past, even Liang Jin...he never mentioned it.He chuckled: "I don't have any plans. Let's try to set up a stall first. If the business is good, I will continue to open it. If the business is not good, I will go to the village to make banquets for others. I am not boasting. I am a little famous now." , it’s not a problem to survive, and the older you get, the more popular you will be in a few more years.”

Liang Jin has always wanted to know about Cheng Hao's past, but he didn't want to ask and couldn't force him, so he took the opportunity and said, "That's okay, it's a craft anyway, when do you plan to start? If I rest at home, I'll help you. "

"A few steps away, what's the value? I didn't plan to prepare too much at the beginning, and slowly added. What are your plans? You will graduate on the third day of next year. Do you want to learn any crafts? But don't worry, if I There is improvement, when the time comes, the two of us will work together, open a home-cooked restaurant like others, if we can make a lot of money, we will open a hotel, what do you think?"

The two walked forward shoulder to shoulder, Liang Jin said: "Do you think I am a reliable person? Be careful that I take advantage of you."

Cheng Hao put his arms on his shoulders with a smile: "The two of us have been friends since we were young. I don't believe who you believe? As an outsider, I was bullied a lot. I play, and you are the only one who waits for me at the door of my house every day, and brings me things out. Bananas, what a rare thing, how rare it is, you are willing to share it with me."

Liang Jin couldn't help laughing when he thought of the way he went to him with things like offering treasures. The hazy feeling that kept jumping in his heart at that time made him feel weird, but at this time he already understood what it was, but he always felt Before that time, it probably lacked a suitable opportunity.

The two returned to the village before the sun went down. Liang Jin took Cheng Hao to his house for dinner, but when he got home, he saw his mother's eyes were red, and he sighed slightly in his heart. It seemed that he was offended.

Liang Ma couldn't say anything in front of Cheng Hao, and said with a smile: "Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you."

Cheng Hao said hello to his aunt, and said, "You should take a rest too. I'm a cook. I can't cook big fish and meat. I'm good at this kind of home-cooked dishes. Let me do it."

Liang's mother couldn't rest, she and her son lived together, apart from being a little regretful about losing Liang Huaimin, she was more happy. She sat on the side and helped clean up the dishes, and said in an awkward-sounding local dialect: "Yang Zhong's craftsmanship is ours. This is the best place, but it’s a pity that you left early. He was strict with you when you learned your skills with him, right? I used to go out with you Uncle Liang to meet him and get angry because he put too much salt. That person is too serious.”

Cheng Hao took the dishes that Liang Ma had packed, washed and cut them. The people who cook the banquet in the village are not serious chefs in other restaurants, but his adoptive father has strict requirements on him. He must pass the knife skills. The vegetables he planted began to practice, and they should not be of different lengths or thicknesses. But compared to being hungry outside and being chased and beaten by others, he felt very happy. Someone supervised and cared for him is the happiest thing.

"My dad is very good at other times except for being serious about cooking. He always taught me that the food in the mouth should not be sloppy. If it is small enough to taste bad, it is too big to make people eat it. It is a lack of virtue. In the future, I will be cleaned up when I come to Yinsi. If he is not busy, he will make delicious food for me. He said that it is a recipe handed down by the ancestors who served in the palace in the Qing Dynasty. In fact, I taste the same, but I dare not say."

Liang's mother smiled: "At that time, everyone envied him, saying that no matter how poor life is, you can't afford a skilled cook. We all couldn't understand why he didn't find someone to live with."

Cheng Hao knew about this. Dad said that life is hard, and getting married is not just about taking a big girl. Once the money is paid, he will be full of debts. Children and daughter-in-law to pay off debts?It's better to feed the whole family alone.It's just that one day he woke up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and saw Dad looking at a photo with a kerosene lamp on.

In the photo is a fashionable and beautiful woman. When my father was very ill, he carefully took it out of his clothes with trembling hands, and explained with great effort: "I am dead, you bring it to me. I know you have I just want to ask. I got married when I was young, but then my family failed... Her family found someone for her again. We have a good relationship, but she was driven crazy, and then she jumped into the river and disappeared. She went underground. It’s time to meet up and have a good talk.”

When Yang Zhong was young, his family was in a good family, and he wandered around every day without doing a proper job. Except for a little solid basic skills, he didn't learn much from his ancestral skills. Now he improved his skills according to his vague memory.

Cheng Hao paused, then said with a smile, "Maybe he's afraid of trouble."

Liang Jin listened to the two of them talking, turned around and went out. He remembered that Dad kept a set of beautiful cups, which were given by an old friend of his. When he came back, he took them out and put them on the kang to admire. He had to wash his hands every time he touched them. Later, grandma said that the distinguished guests at home wanted to use it as a prestige, so she took it away.Dad always wanted to come back, but he was too embarrassed to ask. He was so busy a few days ago that he forgot about it.

The formerly lively main room was a bit strangely quiet. He lifted the curtain and went in, followed the low voice to the west bedroom. Just as he was about to lift the curtain, he heard...

"Your second brother is only a few days old, and it's hard to talk about you now. Your eldest sister showed you someone who looks good and is still a high school student. You will see me after this month."

Through the crack, he saw the third uncle sitting there with his head buried, and it took him a long time to say: "Is he really willing to follow me?"

"Why don't you want to? You are the youngest in the family, so I don't care about you? Your eldest sister said that your eldest brother-in-law promised to arrange a job for her, and put your second brother at my place when she officially came to the door." Bring the cup, I heard that it is only used by wealthy families in the old days. I don’t know what it is, anyway, it’s just for the sake of appearance. You should also work hard, don’t be angry for a long time, and worry me to death.”

Liang Jin curled the corner of his mouth silently, opened the door curtain forcefully, and shouted: "Grandma, what are you and my third uncle doing secretly hiding here? Are you eating well?"

Grandma Liang thought that Liang Jin was an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf. She couldn't say anything good all day long, so she rolled her eyes and said nonchalantly, "You still see me as a grandma? Your eyes are in the sky, I hope I die soon."

Liang Jin grinned: "I don't have the guts. If I get mad at you, my uncles and the others will have to throw me away? As long as it doesn't make a mess, I'm not a hedgehog stabbing people. My mother is back. , she is a member of this family, you are making a lot of noise to let the outside see the joke? I am not that unreasonable person. "

Grandma Liang just calmed down, this kid spoke human words, and just about to nod, what he said next made her blood rush up, her lungs were about to explode with anger.

"Grandma, didn't you say to use my dad's set of cups to show off last time? It's been a while, why don't you give it to me now? I'll burn an incense and offer it there, so that my dad can feel better. "

Grandma Liang shook her head and said, "Your dad took it back a long time ago, no see."

Liang Jin stroked his chin and said, "Grandma, you don't know that the cup is made of jade. When the uncle gave it to my dad earlier, he said that it recognized people. If it doesn't match the eyes, something will happen if you hold it. Think about it, Yu How much is it worth? It’s worth a lot of money to sell it to an antique collector, so why not give it to my dad? It’s a fool not to make money.”

Liang Jin saw that she was listening carefully, leaned forward, and continued: "You don't know that the original owner just wanted to sell it, and then got into bad luck. Not very good. Why do you say I told you this, and you don’t believe me, my third uncle is getting engaged, so let’s give it as a meeting gift, but we can agree, if there is something wrong with that family...you don’t Find me."

The old ladies in the village are the most superstitious, and they dare not touch this even if it is worth the money. In addition, Liang Jin didn't want to stalk him, but turned around and left, which convinced Grandma Liang even more.She suffered so much when she gave birth to her youngest son, and in this life she only wished for the best of his son, even if she was unhappy at all.

So that night, Grandma Liang tossed and turned and couldn't sleep well. Even if she fell asleep, she would have nightmares again and again. An elderly man she didn't know kept chasing her for a cup...

A cup is for a lifetime, it's her life!
