hard work

On the first day they came to Dongyu Town, Ku Tong and Wan Dong attracted a lot of local attention.

Naturally, most of the people who surrounded Kutong were girls in brightly colored clothes.They are dressed in short skirts and satin, each with outstanding posture.It was the first time for Ku Tong to see this kind of attire, and he felt a little embarrassed.But he restrained himself and kept his etiquette, and did not do anything to him.

There are towering trees everywhere in East Elm, and the small bamboo buildings are leaning neatly on the side, which opened Kutong's eyes.The girls also told him that there are many mosquitoes here, so you should take more precautions.

The residence that Sun Fang arranged for Ku Tong was also a small bamboo house. Wandong was very happy to see it, and ran up and down.After finally packing up the things, the patter of rain fell again, hitting the banana leaf bent down.

In late winter, she lay down on the window with some lack of interest, but suddenly saw a person, and her eyes lit up.

She beckoned to him, and Ku Tong was also a little curious when he saw this, so he couldn't help but look down.

"Tong! It's me!"

Ku Tong was taken aback for a moment, but turned to be a little happy, and ran down thumpingly.

"Mingfeng, why are you here?" Meeting acquaintances in a different place is indeed very cordial.

Jiang Mingfeng still looked like that, and smiled naively: "I saw you going out of the city that day, and I was surprised, so I followed you to have a look..."

Look at it, it's all the way.

In fact, Jiang Mingfeng has not given up on the bitter boy.I wanted to catch up with Ku Tong during the few days when Wen Huaizhou was away, and I came here a few times quietly, but I didn't know how to speak, so I ran aground for a while.Coincidentally, that day when he heard the news that Ku Tong was going out of the city, he followed him without even thinking about it.

Unexpectedly, such a follow-up would last half a month. If he hadn't left a letter for the elder at home, the elder might be in a hurry.

Although he didn't understand why Ku Tong came here, since he came, he didn't ask any more questions, and there was no reason why he couldn't stay.

Ku Tong knew it well, but he didn't say it out loud: "Ming Feng, did Wang Ma ever know about it?"

Jiang Mingfeng murmured twice, scratched his head and said, "Naturally."

Ku Tong sighed silently in his heart, making sure that Wang Jing didn't know about it.But it was not easy to drive away Jiang Mingfeng who had followed him all the way, so he said, "Then have you found a place to live?"

Jiang Mingfeng shook his head resentfully: "There are few inns, so where can I find a place to live..."

After all, Dongyu Town is just a small town. There are really few inns, and most of them are full of people. Jiang Mingfeng just asked about it.

Ku Tong sighed, knowing that it shouldn't be like this but he could only say this: "Then you tonight... just stay here with me for the rest of the night."

For Jiang Mingfeng, it was a windfall, so he happily moved in right away.

Although the bamboo building is small, there are still two wing rooms.Jiang Mingfeng tidied up the other room by himself without disturbing Ku Tong.

Ku Tong also heaved a sigh of relief, and hid in the house to play with Wan Dong.

As night falls, the rain stops suddenly, and there are stars outside the window, which is much more peaceful.

A few people had just had dinner together, Ku Tong was quite tired, after washing Wan Dong casually, he fell on the bed and couldn't sleep.

It is really effective to say that I can't sleep.Kutong couldn't help sleeping deeply that night, and couldn't wake up the next day.

Late winter was a little flustered.He trotted to knock on Jiang Mingfeng's door.Jiang Mingfeng was also shocked when he saw him, but when he saw his blushing cheeks, he immediately understood.

But the strange thing is that last night Kutong was neither cold nor rainy, so why did he have a fever?

But Jiang Mingfeng didn't have time to think about it, so he carried him to the only medical clinic in the town, and asked the old man with white beard to show him.

The old man was unambiguous in his treatment, and after a while, he smiled happily, said a few words in the local dialect, and patted Jiang Mingfeng on the shoulder.

Jiang Mingfeng couldn't figure it out, so he hurriedly asked, "Sir, I really don't understand...can you speak in Chinese?"

The old man was taken aback for a moment, and then said in a very unfamiliar Chinese dialect: "Congratulations! Your wife...is pregnant!"

Jiang Mingfeng was like thunder, but he also forced a smile and said: "He is not my wife...but I am also very happy."

In this way, Jiang Mingfeng knew why Ku Tong suddenly had a fever.Firstly, Kutong was not acclimatized, and secondly, Kutong left in a hurry. He probably didn’t bring any precautions. He lacked the breath of General Wen...

Although Jiang Mingfeng is moderate, he still knows a thing or two about this aspect.

The old man also prescribed a medicine for him, probably some kind of poisonous medicine, which made Jiang Mingfeng feel a little mysterious.The old man also asked that it must be boiled for the bitter boy, otherwise it would not work.

After Jiang Mingfeng brought Kutong back, he prepared to use the dead horse as a living horse doctor, so he fed him the medicine.But what he didn't expect was that the medicine was really useful!

Wan Dong has been obediently guarding Ku Tong's bedside, watching him finally wake up, and finally laughing.

"I'm... what's wrong?" Ku Tong was a little confused, and I was dizzy.

Ku Tong sneered, it was really strange that his body that had healed for three years would either faint or be injured when it touched Wen Huaizhou.

Jiang Mingfeng smiled: "Don't worry, you...are pregnant."

Ku Tong was taken aback, touched his stomach in disbelief, his eyes were confused.

After all, male Kunze is not as good as female Kunze. It is not always possible to conceive a child.

But Kutong hasn't come into heat for a long time, how can she conceive Wen Huaizhou's child?

It's even more strange.

Jiang Mingfeng probably knew what was going on in his mind, so he uttered all the guesses in his heart: "Maybe it's because you and General Wen's mark has been completed? That's why..."

Kutong suddenly realized that this was true.

On second thought, I was quite happy.

It doesn't matter if Wen Huaizhou is gone, it's really a good deal to give me another well-behaved child.

Although Jiang Mingfeng was a little sad, he had already thought about it.It's good to be friends with Kutong. It's really good to see him smile every day.So he helped Kutong get up and down, and Kutong also felt comforted.

In this way, Jiang Mingfeng settled down logically, but the two of them only lived in harmony as close friends, and ushered in the midsummer amidst small disturbances.

But one wave of ups and downs rose again—the two were no longer entangled.

They came out in a hurry, and it's normal that they didn't bring enough money.But Ku Tong did it deliberately, thinking that he could come here to do more work, but he didn't want to get pregnant, so he gradually shelved it.

As for Jiang Mingfeng, he had completely forgotten about it. After all, he was used to living a life without worrying about food and clothing, and he was accompanied by servants to pay the bills, so how could he have anything to do with himself?I got used to the days without entanglements.It turned out that he came to this remote Dongyu Town, which was really unexpected.

This made the two of them helpless, and the well-behaved Wan Dong even said that he was going to make money for his father.

"Dong'er is a grown child, and can support his father and younger brother." Wan Dong said seriously.

Ku Tong couldn't laugh or cry, he gouged Wan Dong's nose with a smile: "No matter how old you are, you are still a child in Daddy's eyes... Then why does Dong'er think you are a younger brother?"

Wan Dong really thought about it for a while before answering: "Because he is very naughty, he always bumps into Daddy and won't let Daddy eat properly."

Suddenly burst into laughter.

Ku Tong secretly made up his mind in his heart that no one can suffer for his two children.

Therefore, Jiang Mingfeng decided to sell calligraphy and paintings on the street, but most people in Dongyu Town were illiterate, and the business was quite sluggish.Ku Tong made some gadgets to set up a stall with him, and got some business.

The business is good, but it will be a lot more tiring for the poor boy. For example, he has to fold bamboo and grasshoppers every night, which makes his waist sore and backache. It is even more like standing in front of the scorching sun all day, which can be regarded as torture. .

Jiang Mingfeng felt distressed when he saw it, and he didn't want Kutong to be too tired, but Kutong didn't care, after all, the fetus is now stable, and his body is much better.

Jiang Mingfeng curled his lips, it seems that the medicine is really effective.

The two of them set up a stall like this for half a month. Although there are still few people, but at least they won't be hungry, so it's okay.

Early this morning, the two went downstairs to set up a stall as usual.It is not hot today, the reason is that it rained heavily last night, which made the ground wet and the heat dropped a lot.Therefore, the two wanted to work a little longer today, so they left the stall early.

But as soon as this was put on, there was some movement from the other end, and the pedestrians walked quickly, fearing that they would provoke themselves.

Feeling puzzled, the two of them wanted to find out, but they found the instigator and walked to their stalls.

The two men were shirtless, with fierce faces and tattoos all over their bodies, they looked quite cautious.One of them, who was a little fat, spoke to the two of them head-on, but because it was in the local dialect, the two of them didn't understand it.

Another taller man seemed to realize that the two were not locals, so he whispered something in his ear.

"Okay! Didn't you two foreigners ask about the rules here before you came in?" The fat man seemed to be quite unfamiliar with Chinese, but he still had a vicious look.

Jiang Mingfeng was a literati, so he naturally persuaded him in a good voice: "Brother, don't get excited, calm down, we are from..."

"I don't care where you got it from! Where's the money! Money!" The man was quite rude, and he knocked down some of Jiang Mingfeng's calligraphy and paintings as soon as he came up.

Ku Tong only thought that he was not a good stump, so he wanted Jiang Mingfeng to calm down.But Jiang Mingfeng, who has always been good-tempered, also seemed to be angry, and stepped forward to stare at him: "How can you touch other people's things!"

"I don't care about you! I want money! You want to set up a stall on my chassis without paying?"

Ku Tong and Jiang Mingfeng instantly understood that this was the local snake in Dongyu Town.

Ku Tong tugged at his sleeve and shook his head slightly.

Jiang Mingfeng also withdrew his hostility, and said quite calmly, "Okay, how much do you want?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, counting with their hands.

"Five taels? Well, then I..."

"That's a good idea! 50 taels of silver! You can't afford even a beggar for that little money!"

Kutong and the two were astonished, the amount of 50 taels of silver was exactly twice as much as what they earned this month...

"What? No money?" The fat man's expression changed instantly.

Jiang Mingfeng's face was earthy, he pulled Kutong up and was about to run away.

"You still want to run! Eat your grandfather with a stick first!" The tall one realized something was wrong, and stood in front of Jiang Mingfeng.

The two secretly thought something was wrong, so Jiang Mingfeng pushed away the table in front of him, and ran towards the street with Kutong.The two men who were fat and tall followed closely behind, holding a rather thick wooden stick and chasing after them.

Considering Kutong, Jiang Mingfeng also knew that he couldn't run too fast, so he wanted to take a shortcut.

As a result, a tall man stood impressively in the alley, looking at them gloomily.

Looking back, another person was behind him.

Enemy on the back.

Jiang Mingfeng knew that today's catastrophe was inevitable, so he gave Kutong a wink, trying to make him run away.

Ku Tong also knew that he couldn't bear the toss, so he ran forward with all his strength, but fortunately, no one came after him.

Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he was hit with a stick in the back of his head.

In an instant, the world was spinning, and Ku Tong suddenly dreamed back to that frightening night. When he fell down, blood seemed to flow from his body...

Misfortune never comes singly.

Ku Tong was desperate, why did all the bad things happen to him.

Suddenly, a pair of feet appeared in front of him.

Subconsciously, he wanted to ask the man for help, so he dragged himself and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

But he just touched the corner of the man's clothes before he passed out.
