reborn as a brother

I am obviously very tired, but I can't fall asleep anyway. It's not that I don't want to sleep, but I want to sleep but I can't fall asleep. It's very uncomfortable.

My heart was so noisy that I couldn't calm down.

Ji Anyi couldn't help turning over again, trying to keep the movement as small as possible.

"Daughter-in-law." After waiting for a while, seeing that his daughter-in-law didn't talk to him, Wang Xiaoer had no choice but to speak up.

Ji Anyi was stunned. "You, you are not asleep?"

After tossing all night last night, when he woke up during the day, the idiot had already woken up. Thinking about the medicinal juice on his body, the idiot didn't sleep much during the day.

He slept a lot during the day, so he couldn't fall asleep, and he didn't want to disturb him, so he kept silent.

"I didn't sleep. My daughter-in-law didn't sleep, so I can't sleep." Wang Xiaoer heard the meaning of Ji Anyi's words, felt warm in his heart, and stretched out his hand to wrap him in his arms.

It has become a habit.If his wife is not asleep, he will not be able to fall asleep no matter how tired he is.

"I'm thinking of the village chief, what he said, what Boss Su said, what Liu Ama and Zhang San are thinking of, and the whole village of Hexi Village..." After a while, Ji Anyi whispered talking.

In the twilight, the old farmer who led the cattle home, the elder brother who drove the ducks home, the children jumping around in the field, carefully picking up the leftover ears of rice, busy all day, carrying a pot to hold Scythe, fanning the wind with a folded straw hat, talking and laughing with the people he knew beside him, and that person with a loud voice, seeing the time is quiet, singing unknown songs heartily.

The chimneys are curling up, wisps of them are floating, and they are blown away by the wind in the blink of an eye, and the fragrance of rice and coriander permeates the whole village in an instant.

As the sun sets, the birds return to their nests, and busy people should also return home, enjoying a hot meal and a moment of leisure.

The days are peaceful and beautiful, but natural disasters strike suddenly, destroying the peace and tranquility of the village.

Today, the drought has finally passed, and soon there will be waves one after another. I don't know when the disaster will subside, and I don't know how far the disaster will affect.

All the unknown dangers are the most tormenting people.

How long will it take to go through all the hardships and return to a peaceful and peaceful life?

Ji Anyi couldn't express all the complicated emotions in his heart.

There are many things I want to say, but I clearly know that in such an era, everything is normal.

"Daughter-in-law. We just got the news. We don't know what the situation will be like when that day comes. It may not be as serious as we imagined. Besides, we have all stored food well, and the place is also hidden. Don't think too much, if you think too much, you can't change anything." Last night, Wang Xiaoer was so tired that he felt sorry for his wife, and he couldn't sleep tonight. He wanted to do something, but he didn't know what to do. , so that the daughter-in-law can feel at ease and sleep peacefully.

"Boss Su said that a certain prince has united with the enemy country and wanted to find a breakthrough from our side. This is to focus on this side. I don't know what they will do." After a pause, Ji Anyi sighed again . "You're right. You can't change anything if you think too much about it."

After saying this, the room was silent.

The atmosphere is very solemn.

After a while, Ji Anyi moved gently.

Wang Xiaoer hugged him tighter again, with a deep and deep voice, with a slight thick feeling. "Daughter-in-law. No matter what happens, I can protect you."

"Idiot. I just thought a lot. I thought, while it's still calm, go to the town to buy a small house with a cellar in the house, buy more food, and put it in the house to hide it well." Speaking of Here, Ji Anyi stopped for a while, hesitated for a while, and then continued. "It looks like this on the surface, but in fact I want to hide food and items in the space. In case there is a shortage of food or something, there is a house to cover it, and I can take it out for emergency."

In fact, this method is somewhat risky. In the second half of the year, there was a drought, and countless villages in Fangyuan had no crops.

Wheat was planted in October, and it can be harvested in April, as well as corn and sweet potatoes, which can barely feed the stomach, but there is a drought, and the rice harvest is too little, and even taxes are not enough to pay. money.

If there are no accidents above, it is just a drought, which can be overcome and eased in the coming year.

Now it's drought and unknown woe...

The food hidden in the cave is not too much.

Tell the rest of the people about the space. To be honest, Ji Anyi didn't dare. It's not a matter of believing or not, but because too many people know the secret, so he can't feel at ease.

There is no way to change the habits in the bones.

Liu Ahmo once said that my brother is very defensive. Speaking of which, he is also very defensive.

"That's fine. It's just that brother and the others will inevitably know about it, so it won't be easy." Wang Xiaoer muttered softly, frowning.

He always felt that the space his wife mentioned was like a dream.Now mentioning it, thinking about it, still feels unreal.

I was in a hurry that day, and with the shock in my heart, I was a little dazed, and I didn’t pay much attention to my surroundings, but I still remembered that in that space, there were land, ponds and houses, just like the place where they lived, there was no difference .

Such a good treasure, in this day and age, if someone finds out...

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoer was startled into a cold sweat, and his whole body was in an unprecedented spirit. "Daughter-in-law, can we not use your space? Let's take Xiao Huang and Da Huang, or if it doesn't work, we can also take small ginseng and find a hidden spot in the mountains to hide the food in. You can do it like that. It's troublesome and not convenient at all."

"I thought about it too. It's just that, in this way, it will take a whole night to carry the grain into the mountain. Besides, the grain has to be transported back to the village, and the movement is a bit louder. A few days ago we Genius just took a trip. This method is not easy to use. Buy a house in the town, let’s act calmly and pay attention, and there shouldn’t be any problems. I’ll discuss it with my brothers tomorrow, and I’ve thought about my words. It is said that there are too many people, it will easily attract the attention of others, just the two of us enter the town, we can ask Xiaomu Xiaoshan for help to ask about the house, try to keep a low profile, you see, it should be better."

Ji Anyi clenched Wang Xiaoer's hand, thought for a while, and said again. "We have to hide some more food. At that time, others will have nothing to eat, and we will feel uncomfortable if we eat."

"Okay. Let's do this." Wang Xiaoer understood the daughter-in-law's temper.

He will remember those who have helped him and those who have been kind to him, and will extend his hand to anyone who can help him.

His temperament is prudent at best, and moji at worst.I like to think about everything, and I don't feel tired.

After talking on the phone for a long time, I felt much more comfortable, and I was a little relieved. It didn't take long for the two of them to fall asleep.

The next day, during breakfast, Wang Baoer and his family were specially called over.

At the dinner table, Ji Anyi recounted everything he heard when he went to the village head's house yesterday, and then he also recounted what he thought about last night. The words were very beautiful and there were no loopholes.

The rest of the people listened and nodded in agreement.

The matter was decided, and after breakfast, Ji Anyi and Wang Xiaoer didn't delay, and hurried to the town in a bullock cart.

Xiangrui Restaurant is still open, managed by Xiaomu and Xiaoshan.

After arriving at Xiangrui Restaurant, Ji Anyi didn't say much, and directly told the story of coming here.

When Xiaomu heard this, he smiled. "The boss is really good at predicting things." He said, and he took out a key. "This is the owner's small house in Jingyang Town. There is a small ice cellar built inside. It is not needed in winter, but it can be used to store food. Don't worry, the ice cellar is very hidden. The owner spent a lot of material and financial resources at that time. The owner also said that Brother Ji is kind and kind, so he guessed that this house will be used, so let me wait. By the way, the owner also said that this house will be replaced by three prescriptions. When the world is stable in the future, If he makes a comeback, Ji Geer needs to put in a bit more effort."

"Ji Geer's keys are all here. My boss reminded me that the ice cellar is in the study, let you find it slowly." After finishing speaking, Xiaomu laughed.

Ji Anyi didn't expect that Su Jinming would think of this level at all, holding the key in his hand, it was heavy, but his heart was warm.

This Su Jinming is a true gentleman who only belongs to foxes.

Saying goodbye to Xiaomu and Xiaoshan in a hurry, Ji Anyi and Wang Xiaoer walked to Wutong Lane and found the house. After entering, they went straight into the study without looking around.

It took a lot of effort, such as bookcases, paintings, antiques, etc., as long as they were objects, they were all moved.

Unexpectedly, nothing was gained.

On the contrary, Ji Anyi was a little tired. Seeing a chair in front of the desk, he pulled it out and sat on it to rest for a while, and then took a closer look at the room.

Unexpectedly, the bookcase moved away silently, revealing a step.

Ji Anyi and Wang Xiaoer hurriedly walked down the steps. There was an iron door, which was very thick. They took out the keys and tried them one by one. The second time they opened the iron door.

A burst of cool air came to my face.

The inside is very clean, empty, and the area is not big, just the size of a room.

"This place is good for storing grain." Wang Xiaoer turned around, very satisfied.

After a while, Ji Anyi came back to his senses and said in a low voice. "Looking at it this way, it seems that there is nothing wrong with not using space, what do you think?"

"Yes. This place is very hidden. Let's take some time to tidy up the study and cover it tightly." Wang Xiaoer thinks that the mechanism is under the floor tiles under the desk, although it is quite hidden, But it's still a little inappropriate, it has to be completely covered, so that people can't step on the floor tiles.

Ji Anyi agreed with a smile. "good."

Immediately afterwards, the two began to rearrange the study.

The two of them had nothing else to do this day, so they tidied up the study properly.

After this work was done, the next day, they were ready to collect grain.

Not only rice, but also flour, etc., as long as they can fill their stomachs, they collect some and hide them in the ice cellar.

Among them, Xiaomu and Xiaoshan helped a lot. They used their connections to help them collect food in a more subtle way.

When we returned to Hexi Village, it was already November.

The preparations that should be made have been made, and the rest is to live a good life before the disaster comes.

About the food hidden in the town, after Ji Anyi and Wang Xiaoer came back, they went to the village chief's house and told him about it.

So that he can feel at ease and feel more at ease in his heart.

Brother Zhang San sighed after hearing this. "Boss Su is a man of conscience, please don't let anything happen."

"No." Ji Anyi listened and smiled. "I'm still waiting. After the world is stable, I can earn money with him."

This time, half of the family fortune was spent.

"That's right. After this business stopped, I didn't have any work to do, so I always felt a little busy." Wang Baoer answered.

"It's getting colder, you can make some more clothes for the little fat man." Ji Aqiang said beside him.

The little fat man was seriously nibbling on the snacks that Ji Anyi brought him, when he heard his father calling his name, he twisted in Ah Mo's arms, turned his head sideways, and with the snacks in his mouth, he grinned cheerfully Laughed.

Wang Baoer hurriedly wiped him with a handkerchief, muttering. "You're so busy. Want to eat and laugh at the same time, you don't know how to swallow your food before grinning."

The little fat man opened his mouth, and after a while, he mumbled a word. "What?"

Although the word was a bit vague, everyone could hear it clearly.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they laughed loudly, looking at the little fat man with bright eyes.

"Hey, little fat man called out again." Wang Baoer came back to her senses, hugged the little fat man happily, and kissed him on the cheek.

Being watched enthusiastically by so many people, the little fat man blinked his eyes, grinned cheerfully and smiled, laughed and laughed for a while, he opened his mouth, and just when everyone thought he was about to speak, the little fat man Guy, picked up the half-eaten snacks and continued to gnaw on them. His seriousness really made them dumbfounded.

In November, it is the slack season.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the chill in the wind is getting heavier.

The fire was burning, making slight noises, and the room was quiet, everyone was busy with what they were doing.

Brother Zhang San and Wang Baoer are making winter clothes, Ji Anyi is peeling corn kernels, Wang Xiaoer and the others are carving wooden hairpins, Ji Aqiang is just learning, his movements are a little clumsy and slow, he has to ask Xie Qi from time to time .The little fat man was sleeping soundly on the small bed.

It is no different from previous years, the days are peaceful and beautiful.

It doesn't look obvious on the surface, but everyone knows that everyone has one thing in their hearts, and their spirits are tense.

There was also a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned it.

What can I do if I talk too much?It's better not to talk about it than to increase worries.

"It's going to be winter soon." Wang Baoer smiled and stood up, stretching her neck after having made the little fat man's cotton trousers. "Brother Zhang San, help me see if the size is suitable."

Brother Zhang San put aside his work, picked up the cotton trousers, and looked at them. "Very good. It's soft to the touch, really warm."

"Brother, are you rushing to work at night?" The pants were made quickly.Ji Anyi took a look and asked with a smile.

Ji Aqiang said something without raising his head. "Catch work last night. He wanted to get his pants out last night. Fortunately, I stopped him. This morning has been busy for almost an hour."

"It's a bit of an obstacle." Wang Bao'er smiled, picked up the pants and walked to the small bed, straightened the little fat man's legs, and measured them. "The size should be suitable. Looking at the weather, you can wear it in a few days."

The little fat man turned over, the little quilt was knocked off a bit, rubbed his nose with his chubby hands, and continued to sleep soundly.

Wang Baoer put the little cotton trousers on the head of the bed, covered the little fatty with a slight movement, and moved his sleeping position.

"I see that he seems to have lost some weight recently, do you feel it?" Sitting back on the chair, Wang Baoer asked in a low voice.

Ji Anyi nodded hurriedly. "Yes. I feel thinner and taller."

"That's good. It's still like last year. After a while, I was chubby and walked steadily. I'm afraid it's not very good." Brother Zhang San replied.

"I'm really worried for nothing. I'm really afraid that he will be the same as when he was just born, chubby. At that time when I held him in my hand, no matter how cute he looked, my heart softened. As he grew older, it's better to be thinner. I I took him to learn to walk when he had nothing to do. This kid is a bit lazy, and he won’t leave after walking for a while. Even if there is no bamboo mat on the ground, he will just sit down when he is tired. I want to slap him in anger, as if When I hit him, he just smiled at me, and yelled vaguely, I don’t know who he looks like with this ghost spirit.” Speaking of the little fat man, Wang Baoer couldn’t help but want to laugh.

The conversation around the little fat man gradually started, and the three people who were carving wooden hairpins listened and added words from time to time, and the atmosphere in the room became lively.

The little fat man woke up, opened his big round eyes, and opened his mouth to babble, his voice was not low enough to cover the voices in the room.

"Wake up." Wang Baoer stood up and hugged the little fat man.

Before I had time to sit down, I heard a burst of eager drumming.

"Something went wrong." Brother Zhang stood up abruptly, his heart immediately raised in his throat.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, then hurriedly threw away the objects in their hands, and rushed to the locust tree in a hurry.

Ji Aqiang took out the small quilt casually, followed Wang Baoer, and said. "Wrap it for the child."

"Okay." Wang Baoer stopped, and the two wrapped the little fat man in a bun neatly, and then continued to trot in a hurry.

Soon, all the people in the village who could walk gathered under the locust tree.

"Yesterday there were horse bandits in Liuertun. Not only were every household ransacked, but even the house was burned to ashes by a fire. At the same time, the same situation happened in the lotus pond. Now, everyone hasten to hide all the food in the house. Hexi Village is surrounded by mountains, find a safe place to hide quickly." After the village chief finished speaking, he hurriedly said three more words. "Hurry up."

This louder roar woke everyone up, they couldn't think about anything, only what the village chief said in their minds, go home quickly, and hide the food in the mountains quickly.

The surrounding mountains, if you don’t go deep, everyone is familiar with them, after all, they have lived here all their lives.

Ji Anyi saw that the village chief's expression was not right, and told Wang Xiaoer to go home and hide the food, but he walked up to the village chief himself. "village head."

The village chief coughed for a while, holding the trunk with one hand, and waved the other hand. "fine."

"A few days ago, Xiao Er took rhubarb and Xiao Huang to play in the mountains, and accidentally found a few herbs. I brought them to Doctor Li and asked him to show you." Not a taste.

The village chief was silent. After a long time, he withdrew his hands, stood upright, looked in the direction of the village entrance, and spoke slowly. "It's going to be chaotic, it's going to be chaotic..."

The situation was much more serious than he had imagined, and he didn't know if he could protect the entire Hexi Village.

It was only when something happened that he really felt that he was old, really old.

This body is useless.

"The village head. I'll go get the herbs." Ji Anyi almost ran away, and that inexplicable sadness came to his heart again.

After returning home, Ji Anyi entered the house, closed the door, called out the little ginseng, asked him to find some herbs, and told the village chief about the situation.

Hearing this, the little ginseng quickly got back into the ground, and it came back not long after, with a few herbs wrapped around its green branches.

"Little ginseng, the world is going to be chaotic. It's very chaotic recently. Don't come out. Just stay in the mountains and protect yourself." Ji Anyi took the herbal medicine and told the little ginseng seriously.

After taking the little ginseng out of the space, he asked him to take good care of the little fat man that night. Later, he wanted the little ginseng to stay in the space, and it would be safer, but the little ginseng didn't want to, so he had to let it go back to the mountain to help take care of the cave food in.

After staying in the space for a few days, the little ginseng has become more and more spiritual. The fat ginseng can almost be seen as a small person.

For some reason, he always felt that the appearance of the little ginseng looked familiar, until one day, when the little ginseng and the little fat man were playing together, he realized that the little ginseng and the little fat man looked like twins .

I don't know why, but if the little ginseng can talk, he would like to ask.

After waiting for the little ginseng to leave, Ji Anyi hurriedly walked under the locust tree, just in time to see Mrs. Liu holding a cloak and putting it on for the village chief.

"Mr. Liu, this is a herbal medicine found in the mountains. It is old and effective. Call Dr. Li and ask him to show the village chief. With this medicine, you won't cough anymore." Walking over, Ji Anyi laughed at the herbal medicine. Pass it to Mr. Liu.

Liu Damo looked a little haggard, his spirit was not very good, and his face was a little pale, but he was still so gentle and gentle. When he smiled, he was especially warm. "Okay. I'll take him to find Dr. Li right now."

On the way, Ji Anyi ran into Zhong San who was in a hurry, seeing him, Zhong San hurriedly yelled. "Ji Geer."

"Ah Zhong San." Ji Anyi stopped.

"Brother Ji, have you stored your food well? My wife often goes into the mountains, and I found a quite hidden cave before, which is just suitable for storing food. I have already told A Yuan that your food is also hidden in that cave. It’s quite spacious.” Ah Zhong San’s tone was quick, and his voice dropped very low.

A Yuan... Ji Anyi was stunned for a moment before realizing that A Yuan was Liu Ah's name. "Okay. I'll go back and talk to Xiaoer."

"Okay. Come over with the food, let's go into the mountains together." After Zhong San finished speaking, he trotted home.

The road was full of villagers carrying loads to the mountains, and some even went straight to the carts to push them.

The whole atmosphere can be described as chaos.

Ji Anyi returned home, and told the three people in the house about the matter, they nodded in agreement, and directly got into the ox cart, packed their things and drove to Zhong San's house.

By that time, Liu Ahmo and the others had already arrived, and they were waiting for them without wasting much time. Now that the situation was urgent, everyone rushed to the mountain with their carts.

Zhong San, Liu Ah, Liu Xiuji, Anyi, Wang Baoer, Zhang Sangeer, etc., just looked along the road to see if there was anyone around, and stood alone on the road for a certain distance.

There are many mountains here, and there are many good friends, all of whom hide the food in a hidden place.

They were all busy storing grain, and no one cared about seeing where others hid the grain. They didn't know what was going on with others, but there was no collision on their side.

At the end of noon, I finally hid all the food properly, and with a sigh of relief, everyone went back to their houses to prepare lunch.

Unexpectedly, before entering the house, there was a rumbling sound of horseshoes and shouts.

Those who heard the movement had a word in their hearts at the same time: The horse bandit is here.

"Look at this time, we can still rob another village today, brothers, act quickly, whoever robs the most valuable thing will get an extra share of the money."

The deafening sound, the sound is particularly rough, no one is seen, just listening to the sound, one can feel a wave of evil spirit.

As soon as the words were finished, the horseshoes started to run in all directions, spreading towards every corner of Hexi Village.

When Liu Ahma heard the sound of horseshoes getting closer, she immediately put Liu Xiu behind her and said. "Hurry up and hide in the mountains." Immediately afterwards, he pulled Liu Xiu up and ran into the mountains.

"Follow up quickly, we will stop them here and come to find you in a while." Xie Qi said with a sullen face.After speaking, he pushed Sange Zhang. "Run."

Wang Baoer made a decisive decision, hugging the little fat man with one hand, and directly clasping Zhang Sangeer and Ji Anyi's wrists with the other. "Run, don't be dragged back by them." Pulled and ran directly into the mountains.

Da Huang and Xiao Huang stood in front of them, staring ahead with piercing eyes, ready to go, waiting for the enemy to appear.

The person coming in this direction just came up the slope and appeared in sight.

There were a lot of people, nine of them, riding on big horses and holding weapons.

At this moment, a voice roared loudly. "Paralysis, Boss and the others hid all the valuables, and there is no one in the house, only two immortals left."

"Hand over the money and food, otherwise, kill!" The rough voice was twice as loud as before, and it was almost possible to feel that the whole mountain was shaking slightly.

Xie Qi frowned tightly, and said something in a low voice. "What a profound internal strength." After a pause, he said again. "It is estimated that these people are not weak, you have to be careful."
