Perhaps, my sister-in-law has not suffered as much as she did when she was young.
She is suppressed by her parents-in-law and her sister-in-law, talking about her family status. In such suffocating days, no one has loved anyone in the past. Anyway, Aunt Xu will not go back to her past even if she is beaten to death!
Ms. Xu stood up and left the table. She still had a lot of preparations to do and had no time to listen to Ms. Yan's persuasion to surrender.
The brothers Gongsun Yan and Gongsun Yu looked at each other, then looked at the stunned Yan Shi, and shook their heads. The two brothers had an unprecedented tacit understanding. They both took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
Xu is right, not everyone wants to go back to the past.
They took advantage of this opportunity to turn themselves around, but some people always fell down because of it.
However, Qingyang also said, "As long as the majority of people stand up, then the world will always belong to the majority of people."
Gongsun Yu caught up with his wife Xu and left.
The two daughters-in-law, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Xia, looked at each other, waved to the children, and prepared to take them away.
Gongsun Ying shook his head and refused to leave. Xia was a little anxious, so Gongsun Yan spoke up, "It's rare for the child to come back, so let her talk to her grandmother for a while, and you all can go down."
Gongsun Yan looked at Yan, sighed, and left.
In the dimly lit room, only Gongsun Ying and Yan were left, as well as Gongsun's younger brother, who was sitting in the corner and was completely ignored.
No one told him to leave, so he didn't get up and leave.
The wet nurse who called him over was still outside. She would not come in without being summoned by the host's wife.
No matter it was before or now, in Nuo Da's house, only this nanny would care about his life or death.
Younger brother Gongsun is already eleven years old. He had poor health and bones when he was a child. Although he is not so sick now, he is still thinner than his peers.
If it weren't for the Xu Jiajun's re-population census, Gongsun Yan's family almost forgot that they were still raising such a child in the small courtyard of their back house.
He didn't even have a serious name. Gongsun Yan had mentioned that he wanted to give it a name before, but he forgot about it in his busy schedule.
The name currently registered in the yellow book is Gongsun's youngest son.
"Little Brother" was a nickname given to him by the wet nurse. It has no meaning, just because he is the youngest in the Gongsun family.
Madam Yan seemed to have just discovered the existence of this child. She had just received a lot of anger from Madam Xu. When she saw this ignorant child who was still here, she subconsciously scolded her.
"Little brother!" Gongsun Yi suddenly appeared, interrupting Yan's voice.
Gongsun's younger brother raised his head in surprise, Gongsun Yi waved to him, "Let's go."
Young brother Gongsun seemed to have seen his savior. He hurriedly got up, bowed his hands to Mrs. Yan, and couldn't help but run towards Gongsun Yi with joy.
Yan's face became even more gloomy. Gongsun Ying knelt down beside her, silently enduring the low pressure from her grandmother, but because she didn't want to leave her grandmother alone, she still didn't leave.
Because she also hopes that Xu Jiajun will win.
So the only one left standing against the whole family was the grandmother. This made Gongsun Ying feel guilty, and he was willing to endure this suffocating low pressure and stay with his grandmother so that the sense of betrayal in his heart could be reduced.
Gongsun Yi led Gongsun's younger brother to the outside of the courtyard.
"Eldest brother." Gongsun's younger brother called out in a low voice, his big eyes filled with a bit of testing and expectation, shining like Gongsun Yun'er's little rabbit.
Gongsun Yi felt a little strange in his heart. He was not used to people other than his sister relying on him so much. He scratched his head, nodded, and agreed.
Young Gongsun smiled shyly, raised his head and asked his taller brother, "Brother, do you think Xu Jiajun will win?"
Gongsun Yi paused and turned to look at the little brother. When the boy mentioned Xu Jiajun, his eyes lit up.
Oddly enough, Gongsun Yi asked him: "Do you want the Xu Jiajun to win?"
"Yeah!" Gongsun's younger brother nodded without hesitation.
If it weren't for Xu Jiajun, he would still be huddled in that dilapidated courtyard with his wet nurse, just because he was a commoner, so no one cared about his life or death.
When Xu Jiajun came, he and the nanny had a yellow card, and the nanny could go out to work and earn a lot of wages that she could not get before, so that they could both have enough to eat and no longer have to go hungry.
It was also Xu Jiajun. For the first time, he was able to sit in the classroom on an equal footing with other direct children, listen to his master's lectures, and learn to write his own and his nanny's names.
I also learned a lot about how to be a good person. In the past, these things were beyond the reach of a commoner.
He always asked the wet nurse, why can't children born from concubines go to school to study?
The wet nurse always told him, there is nothing we can do, because your mother was not favored by the young master in the past.
He didn't quite understand this strange rule, but he knew that he hated it.
He likes what he is doing now, because he performs well in school and studies very hard, so the Son of God in the church will award him a reward, which he earned through his own efforts.
But in the past, he didn't even have the chance to work hard.
"Eldest brother, what about you? Do you also hope that Xu Jiajun will win?" Gongsun's younger brother asked Gongsun Yi.
The young man smiled energetically and said confidently: "Of course! And we will definitely win!"
we?
Gongsun's eyes were hot, he clenched his fists and echoed: "We will definitely win!"
...
Dark clouds rolled up from the sky and quickly spread over the city. The entire Yuyang County turned from light to dark in an instant.
Such a dim sky phenomenon is rarely seen on weekdays. The busy people on the street looked up to the sky and vaguely saw a silver dragon flashing through the clouds.
"The sky has changed." An old man murmured.
At this moment, a black horse rushed from outside the city. The man on the horse shouted at the pedestrians to avoid it and shouted at the government office:
"Secret report from the front!"
Upon hearing this, the pedestrians on the street hurriedly stepped back and consciously made way for the messenger to pass quickly.
As for what the secret report contained, the people of Yuyang, who had already been preparing for the upcoming battle, figured it out after just a moment's thought.
The messenger dismounted at the government office and walked quickly into the lobby.
At this time, Xu Yue's family of five were already waiting in the hall.
Xu Yue sat in the main seat, while the remaining four people, including Wang Pingping, stood behind her in a supportive posture.
The messenger reported: "Leader, General Wang, news came from the front line that Zhao Yuanji and Liu Qi each led 10,000 troops. They were divided into two groups and entered Yuyang County from the northwest and southwest respectively!"
"They are traveling smoothly all the way. The magistrates of other counties have opened post roads, and they can reach Yuyang County in the fastest two days!"
