Datang Live Room

Early the next morning, Yan Kai opened his eyes.

I slept more comfortably last night than I did at the Zheng Family Courtyard the night before.

Maybe it’s because my family is around.

"Kaier, come have breakfast!"

Mrs. Yan opened the pot. Inside were the leftover dumplings made yesterday. After they were steamed, they were served with a bowl of white porridge.

Naturally, the Yan family did not have such breakfast in the past, only two meals a day.

But Yan Kai said yesterday that he wanted to have breakfast, so Sister Yan naturally made it for him.

"What about the two of them?"

"I was so excited last night, I don't know how late I fell asleep."

Sister-in-law Yan looked at Yan Kai and said, "Kaier, your father and I discussed it last night, and we are relieved to see that you are living so well here. As for us, we still plan to go back to the original village..."

"It's so good here, why do you want to go back?" Yan Kai was stunned with a dumpling in his hands.

"Of course it's good here, but your father can't worry about his land. Our land can still produce a lot of food a year. We can't just let it go unused, right?"

Yan Kai didn't expect that it would be so difficult for his parents to pick him up, but they planned to go back within two days of staying there.

"Mom, Dad, you are going back. What will happen to them?"

"Of course we took him back. You are living a good life here now and can still help the family. Even if they return to the village, they will not live the same hard life as they did in the past."

"But I still plan to teach them how to read here!" Yan Kai said looking at the couple.

"This……"

Sister-in-law Yan and Mr. Yan were stunned. If the two little ones could learn literacy and learn skills from Yan Kai, they would have a bright future in the future.

But Yan Kai is here to teach the young master how to read, so how can he have time to take care of their two little ones?

As parents, what they care about most is their children. If they could become scholars, who would want them to return to the village and farm with them?

Sister-in-law Yan began to waver, looked at Yan Laoer and said, "How about... you go back?"

"I……"

Before Yan Lao Er could finish his words, Yan Kai said: "Mom, you also know where our family is. I'm not here to help dad now. If he works alone, who will cook for him?"

Then he said to his father: "I remember that Aunt Six at the head of the village was doing some sewing work at home alone. How about I give Aunt Six some money and let her cook for you?"

"That won't work!" Yan Laoer said nothing, and Sister Yan didn't dare anymore.

The sixth aunt Yan Kai was talking about was a widow in the village, and she was quite charming in the eyes of the villagers.

After speaking, she looked at Yan Laoer with some evil intentions: "Yan Laoer, during the discussion last night, you wanted to go back. Is it because of this?"

Yan Laoer's eyes widened like bells: "Yesterday...yesterday...yesterday wasn't I the one who said it would be nice to enjoy the blessings in Yangping Town? Wasn't it you who said you couldn't burden Kai'er with dogs... ?”

"Humph!"

Yan Kai quickly coaxed: "Oh, mother, that's what I said, maybe dad doesn't want to go back!"

"Of course I don't want to go back. The food here is good, the accommodation is good, and the two kids can study with his brother, so why should I go back!"

Yan Laoer finally showed some of the momentum of the head of the family: "Our family lives here. This is because my son has the ability and can teach others in exchange for the eldest son of the Zheng family. What should I be embarrassed about?" ?”

After speaking, he asked in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, do you think what I said is right?"

"Yes, that's all right!" Mrs. Yan stood up and took away the plate of steamed dumplings in front of him that had only eaten two.

"Hey, I haven't finished eating yet!"

"You don't have to work in the fields, so why do you eat so much?"

Yan Kai suppressed his laughter, finished the food in front of him in two mouthfuls, and said, "Then I will go teach Zheng Zhixun and come back for lunch at noon."

He was afraid that if he didn't come back, the couple would just do something casual and deal with it.

Anyway, they are all in Yangping Town, and it only takes more than 20 minutes to walk.

This was business. Mrs. Yan gave him a few words of advice and then went to wake up the two little ones.

Yan Kai walked out of the small courtyard and stretched.

The time for this meeting is estimated to be early eight in the morning. People in ancient times got up early, and there were already many pedestrians on the street.

This place is indeed larger than the town where I wrote the story. I heard that the county government of Xiangcheng County is also in this town.

Yan Kai walked and walked until he came to the back door of the Zheng Family Courtyard. In fact, the front door of such a large house is usually not open. It can only be opened when important guests come.

Butler Zheng and the others usually go in and out through the back door. They must have arrived a little early today because the back door hasn't opened yet.

Yan Kai was about to go up and call the door when he felt something pressing against his back.

"Shut up, follow me!"

Yan Kai's breath was stagnant. Did he encounter a calamity?

It shouldn't be, it's still in the town in broad daylight, and besides, I don't have any money!

But no matter what, he really didn't dare to speak out, so he could only be escorted away by the people behind him.

After twisting and turning, they came to a small courtyard, and Yan Kai was pushed in.

His first reaction when he entered was: Yes, this is called a small courtyard!

This is a small courtyard exactly like the small courtyard he imagined. There are many idle people in the courtyard inside.

"Brother, I caught a coward!" The voice behind him was a bit joking, and then he pushed Yan Kai hard.

Yan Kai fell to the ground and saw that the man only had a piece of bamboo in his hand.

"Guys, I just arrived in this town yesterday. I don't know what you want to..." Yan Kai was not sure what they wanted to do if they caught him, so he could only ask carefully.

This is not a legal society, of course there is some legality.

But these people in front of me didn't look like they would comply.

Several people were playing dice in the middle of the yard. The leader looked at Yan Kai on the ground and threw the dice in his hand on the table.

(Dice appeared in the Warring States Period and were already very popular in the Tang Dynasty. There is a sentence in a Tang poem "Xintiansheng Willow Branch Poems": "The exquisite dice is decorated with red beans, and I miss you deeply.")

"Are they from the Zheng Family Courtyard?"

"You can't go wrong, boss!" The person who captured him said, "I saw the butler of the Zheng family delivering it to him yesterday."

"Oh?" The leader raised his eyebrows, looked at Yan Kai and asked, "What do you do in the Zheng family?"

"Brother, I... I am just a storyteller. Really, I used to be in Yunyang Town. Yesterday, Young Master Zheng came to Yunyang Town and heard that my stories were interesting. He asked me to come over and talk for two days. I... …”

"Are you really a storyteller?" The man stared at Yan Kai.

"That's true!" Yan Kaiqiang said calmly. At this time, if he answered just a little wrong, his life might be in danger.

"Brother, if you don't believe me, can I tell you a few paragraphs?"
