In the years of famine, the knife in my mother's hand is not bad either

Chapter 176 The sinister Xiao 7 is online again!

In the county seat of Xiayang County.

The eunuch Zhang Zhengde sent by Shen Qian was leading twenty carts of coal and heading out of the city.

Suddenly, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Zhang Zhengde stretched out his hand and gently touched the falling snowflakes, his eyes filled with tears and his lips trembled slightly:

"Snow...it's really snowing."

"If, if this snow can be heavier and soak the land, next year may be a good harvest year."

"Daliang...can still be saved."

His words almost expressed the thoughts of all the young eunuchs.

The eunuchs' power is dependent on the imperial power and the current court.

No one wanted the dynasty to prosper more than they did.

Especially at this time when the eunuchs' power has reached its peak.

"Hurry up and transport the charcoal back."

"The Lord may have to walk a few more miles forward." Zhang Zhengde sighed and shouted loudly to the eunuchs who were pulling the horses and carriages.

Seeing this, the eunuchs responded in unison:

"promise!"

at the same time.

Shen Qian looked at the snowflakes falling from the sky and thought to herself:

"It's been two days. It really snowed at the end of the month."

"Based on the estimated time, Zhang Zhengde should have bought the coal back."

"That's the price. I don't know if there's been a temporary price increase."

Just as I was thinking about it, a childish voice came to my ears:

"Mom!"

"Mom, the snowflakes are so beautiful, look!"

"It landed in Xiao Qi's hands. It was such a huge piece!"

Shen Qian listened to the sound and lifted the curtain of the carriage again.

He noticed that Xiao Qi was presenting the snowflakes in his hand in front of him, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"Yes, the snowflakes are so beautiful." Shen Qian responded, her memory vaguely returning to her previous life.

At this point in time, Xiao Qi seemed to have secretly cut his linen clothes?

This left me with several frostbites on the journey south.

But this time, Xiao Qi no longer had any resentment towards him, and completely showed his innocent side. What happened in the previous life would never happen again.

Filled with hatred, Shen Qian closed her eyes and thought deeply. When she opened them again, she was shocked to find that there seemed to be no such thing.

"Xiaoqi, do you want to study?" Shen Qian suddenly asked.

This made Xiaoqi, who was playing, stunned.

She blinked her big eyes and stared at her mother blankly.

read?

Isn't this something only the eldest brother can do?

Why would her mother ask her if she wanted to study?

But when he thought about how his elder brother used to be studied and all the money and delicious food in the family was given to him, Xiao Qi swallowed hard.

Then he nodded firmly:

"want!"

“You need to study.”

Seeing Xiao Qi's firm response, Shen Qian smiled and asked:

"Then why is Xiaoqi studying?"

"Why..." Xiao Qi thought for a moment and decided to speak out what he was thinking:

"To be like my big brother, to have good food and nice clothes."

After Shen Qian got Xiao Qi's answer, she shook her head helplessly:

"If that's all, Xiaoqi doesn't need to study at all. Mother will prepare everything for you."

"It's just good food and nice clothes. As long as Xiaoqi is filial, A Niang will even prepare a generous dowry for Xiaoqi when she gets married."

When Xiaoqi heard his mother say that he could have good food and clothes even without studying, his little head was a little overloaded for a moment.

He looked at A Niang with a puzzled look.

Thinking carefully, it seems that I have been eating better and better since I started fleeing the famine?

The little belly became round.

But if it is not for eating better and wearing warm and nice clothes, then why study?

A doubt arose in Xiaoqi's little head.

"Go play." Shen Qian sighed when she saw Xiao Qi couldn't figure it out.

No further words were said.

Xiao Qi also responded dully.

But when playing in the snow again, I no longer have the carefree joy and liveliness I had before.

Aimless memorials among the troops.

Xiao Qi suddenly saw a crisp slapping sound outside the carriage where his fifth and sixth brothers were.

'Snapped! '

Look closely.

Suddenly, Qingluan stretched out her hand again and slapped Sixth Brother hard in the face.

'Snapped! '

A second crisp slap sounded.

Xiao Qi approached curiously and heard Qing Luan shouting at Wang You and Wang Liang:

"Even if you find the master about what happened today, I will definitely not be punished."

"You are the master's son, how could you do such a dirty thing as touching a woman?"

Wang You and Wang Liang faced Qingluan's rage.

I just looked around a little embarrassedly, hoping that no one would come over to watch.

After all, there are quite a few villagers from Wangjia Village nearby.

If this gets out, the two brothers will no longer be able to live in the village.

Seeing that no villagers came to join in the fun.

But the moment Wang You looked away, he saw Xiao Qi looking at them eagerly.

My heart suddenly skipped a beat.

A pair of eyes looked towards Xiao Qi nervously.

I found Xiaoqi walking towards me with a finger in his mouth.

I am anxious.

In my ears, Qingluan's voice sounded again:

"At your age, I understand that the two young masters are curious about women."

"But the master has ordered this servant to correct the two young masters' behavior. As punishment today, you two will stand in the snow for two hours."

"Can't move."

Facing the punishment given by Qingluan.

Wang Liang glanced at Wang You with dissatisfaction.

After all, I was implicated.

If it was him who was harassed just now, he would definitely be willing to be punished, but he was punished as a member of the group.

Not only did he get slapped, but he also had to stand in the snow.

I was speechless when I turned around and saw Xiaoqi.

I was stunned for a moment.

He opened his mouth and stammered:

"Fifth...Fifth Brother?"

"When did our seventh sister come?"

Facing Wang Liang's question, Wang You stuttered for a long time before he could explain clearly:

"Maybe.. maybe, it came when we were slapped?"

At this moment, Wang Liang felt as if the sky had fallen on him.

He glanced at Wang You with resentment.

You know, he thinks he has a good image in his sister's eyes.

At this moment, he was actually slapped by a maid, and his seventh sister saw it.

How can I establish a glorious image in the heart of my seventh sister from now on?

And let’s take a step back.

The seventh sister has always been by her mother's side.

If she told her mother what had just happened, her mother would definitely ask about it.

When Wang Liang thought of the knife in his mother's hand, he couldn't help but shiver.

The blade hanging high above the neck may fall at any time.

The situations of my eldest brother, second sister and fourth brother are still vivid in my mind.

He was terrified.

"Don't communicate!" Qing Luan frowned as she saw Wang You and Wang Liang focusing their attention on the young lady, and shouted at them:

"Just answer me, is it clear?"

Facing Qingluan's shout.

Wang You and Wang Liang agreed reluctantly.

"clear."

Seeing that the two agreed, Qingluan's expression looked better.

But Xiao Qi had already walked up to the two of them and asked them:

"Fifth brother, Sixth brother, did you get slapped just now?"

"why?"

Faced with Xiao Qi's question, Wang You and Wang Liang looked embarrassed.

Looking at each other.

Not to mention that there was a stern Qingluan watching them from the side, preventing them from communicating.

The language stuck in their throats made them feel uneasy.

Seeing that the two of them really didn't communicate, Qingluan's expression improved. She looked at Xiaoqi and said softly:

"Xiao Qi."

"They made a mistake."

“So I’m being punished.”

Xiao Qi nodded after hearing Qing Luan’s explanation.

She still had many questions in her mind, such as why she was slapped. But she was a dark-minded person, so she naturally realized that one of the punishments was to stop the two of them from speaking.

So, with revenge in mind, he asked the two again:

"So, what was your mistake, Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother?"

At this moment, Wang You and Wang Liang's faces became even uglier.

The mistakes they made are unacceptable.

If Xiaoqi takes this to his mother and tells her about it, he might really be kicked out of the house.

Wang You suddenly felt regretful.

If I hadn't been so bold as to put my hands on him just now.

How did it end up like this?

Qingluan was also confused by Xiaoqi's question for a moment.

This kind of indecent thing must not be told to the young lady, she is still a child.

While hesitating, Wang Liang was startled by the cold wind and immediately defended himself:

"It's just because my fifth brother and I quarreled, which was not conducive to family harmony."

"Yes, yes!" Wang You saw this and agreed.

Xiao Qi noticed how nervous and upset the two of them were.

A pair of eyes looked at the two of them, full of disbelief.

At the same time, he turned around and saw Xiao Qi asking the maid Qingluan beside him:

"Is that right?"

"I must tell Mother about this~ After all, you beat up my two brothers."
