Li Lun's brother has died in the war, leaving only one daughter, who is only six years old today.
When Hong Chengchou registered the household registration, Li Lun gave them the names of Han Chinese, his daughter was Li Wen, and his mother was Wang Xiuying.
Li Lun had always disliked these widows and orphans. They had no family at home and would definitely drag him down in the future. However, now that Wang Meili is with two Han Chinese in the city and can earn money, he suddenly moved in his heart.
Li Lun let go of her daughter's little hand: "Juan'er, Yong'er, you are waiting outside, I will come in and say something, and I will be back soon."
Li Juan blinked her blindfolded eyes and looked at Li Lun innocently: "Father, hurry up, it's too cold outside."
"Yes, yes, dad hurry up, dad will come out soon, Juan'er is good."
Li Lun patted the tent, and a woman's voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
"It's me!" Li Lun said softly, "I'm here to talk to you."
There was a trembling sound from the tent, obviously the woman was removing the obstacles in the tent.
Li Lun was very trustworthy to his daughter. After he entered, he only said a word. Before the woman could reply, he got out of the tent and took his son and daughter's little hand: "Go, let's go home."
Returning to his yurt, Li Lun lit the sheep oil lamp and found a pair of spare timbers, lit the lamp, blew off the flame, and put it in the firewood brazier that had been prepared a long time ago.
The inside of the tent warmed up quickly. Li Lun put the wood brazier under the fire kang. After a while, he touched the kang with his hand and felt that the kang was already warm. Then he said to Li Juan and Li Yong, "Juan'er, Yong'er, you go to bed first!"
"Isn't Daddy going to Kang?" Li Juan was quite concerned about Li Lun.
Li Lun pointed to the outside: "Father is going to the cattle and sheep pen, if the cattle and sheep ran away, and the latter was taken away by the wolf, Juan'er would not have the mutton to eat." He was in Li Juan's little face again. He stroked him, "Juan'er is obedient, you and Yong'er go to bed first!"
"When will Daddy come back?" Li Juan still refused to undress and go to the kang.
"Maybe back in a while, it may take a long time, Juan'er and Yong'er go to bed first, don't have to wait for father, be good!"
"Well then!" Li Juan lit her head vigorously. After the cold wind for so long, she was really sleepy, and she didn't bother to care about Li Lun anymore.
Li Lun took off Li Juan and Li Yong's coats, leaving only the gauze jackets, watching them get into the already warm kang.
When he got out of the yurt, Li Lun tied a strip of coarse cloth from the outside before walking towards Wang Xiuying's tent.
The tent did not close, obviously waiting for someone, Li Lun opened the cloth door and rushed in.
"His uncle, it's so late, do you have anything to say?" The oil lamp was still in the tent, and the woman was lying on the kang with her face to the outside, covering her whole body with a leather quilt. She did not move, but looked up at Li Lun. .
"Oh, nothing special, just come over and see you," Li Lun rubbed his hands and blew on his mouth again: "Wen'er? Are you asleep?"
"After you left, she just fell asleep." The woman twisted her head and glanced behind her. Seeing that Li Wen was not moving at all, she was convinced that she was not awakened. "You shouldn't be living in the city today. ?"
"It's a long story. Two guests came to the city today. I gave them the Huo Kang." Li Lun smiled sly.
"Oh," the woman answered casually, "His uncle, you can sit on the edge of the kang for a while! Standing and talking, it's very cold."
Li Lun walked up to the kang and sat on the edge of the kang without talking, but stared at the woman with his head down.
"His uncle..." The woman shrank inward to make room for Li Lun, but she was afraid that the sleeping child would be shocked, and the room would not be much. "Where is my sister-in-law? Didn't you come back with you?"
"One hundred wen!" Li Lun stretched out his right index finger, "Your sister-in-law stays in the city and can earn one hundred wen a night."
"What a hundred words?" The woman's big eyes flickered.
"To accompany two guests at night, one night is a hundred writings." Li Lun didn't care about the woman's surprised eyes, "Xiuying, you are a woman. It is too hard for you to take the children and to graze the animals."
"Thanks, what's the way? The kids always have to eat. Daming gave me land and pasture. I'm thankful. Who made you brother..." the woman said faintly, her eyes reddening.
"Xiuying, if there are customers in Kanminger, your sister-in-law can't be busy alone, are you willing to help? It's too easy to earn this kind of money, it's a hundred times easier than raising cattle and sheep!" Li Lun Staring at the woman's gaze, in his eyes, his expectation has long been seen in front of the woman.
"His uncle... this kind of thing..." The woman trembled, but she didn't know what to say.
"Xiuying, your sister-in-law has done it, what are you afraid of? You are a woman with a child, do you want to live like this for a lifetime?" Li Lun pressed on every step of the way, as if this matter was of great benefit to him.
"His uncle..." the woman muttered, and Li Lun couldn't hear what she said after sitting on the edge of the kang.
Li Lun decided to persuade him in a roundabout way: "Xiuying, or you try first, if you are tired in the future, you can come back to graze."
"This..." The woman subconsciously shrank into the quilt, as if Li Lun was her first guest.
"Xiuying, I'm your uncle, will I harm you? It's really easy to make this kind of money. I'm always going to give cattle and sheep to others to raise them, if I often have customers."
"His uncle..." The woman lost her opinion, so she looked at Li Lun eagerly.
"Xiuying, it is extremely inconvenient for you to take your children alone and to graze the cultivated land, so let's go to my house in the future!" Li Lun moved forward a little bit. He had already planned it. If a woman was willing, then she would Like my own wife, she earns herself some copper every day.
"His uncle, this... will my sister-in-law agree?" The woman's pupils suddenly dilated, she had already thought of this, but Li Lun kept silent and pretended not to know.
"What does she disagree with? In the future, when you need it, you will live in the city for a few days. In your free time, you will go to feed cattle and sheep with your sister-in-law, not eating for nothing." Li Lun's hands were already stretched in. In the quilt, he lightly touched the woman's mulberries, "Xiuying, warm your hands first."
"Put it down." The woman groaned, but she didn't move.
Li Lun obediently put his hands on the kang, the woman's heels pressed against the kang, and the buttocks were slightly raised, Li Lun took the opportunity to put her hands in.
"Xiuying, you don't know how happy I am today. I found a way to make money today. The Han people are so rich." Li Lun's hands were pressed by the woman, unable to move, but his eyes were on the woman's face. Spin around.
"His uncle, will Han people really pay?" the woman asked, slanting her eyes.
"Of course, they have already paid the money, otherwise I will go out of the city overnight?" Li Lun couldn't pull his hands away, so he had to shake his body to make the copper coins hit each other, making a "ding-dong" temptation sound.
"Will the Han... torture our women?" The woman was still a little scared. If Li Lun hadn't said that she could enter his house, she wouldn't necessarily agree.
"This... Probably not. The Han people are similar to ours. It is said that they are still the same ancestors, but later separated in different places. When the Mongols ruled the Central Plains, there were a lot of intermarriage between Mongolia and Han? There was nothing wrong with it. Good legend." Li Lun was afraid of women going back.
The woman pursed her mouth and said nothing.
Li Lun felt that his hands were already warm, and his fingers began to rub under the woman's body.
"You..." The woman itch, gently twisting her waist.
"Xiuying, only the two of us are here now, what are you afraid of?" Li Lun didn't stop his finger movements, "Tomorrow, aren't you going to enter my house?"
"Child... The child is inside!" The woman had already started to gasp, and her words were not very clear.
"Wait tomorrow, you will be my woman, the child knows what's the matter?" Li Lun's movements became bigger, his hands restless.
The woman closed her eyes, and her thick eyelashes quivered slightly under the light of the yellow lanolin lamp.
Li Lun's hands have been pulled away from the woman's body. He stroked the woman's body in an orderly manner from top to bottom, starting from mulberries, and swimming all the way to the Grand Canyon, until an inexplicable warm spring showered his finger. …
The woman felt that her skin was leaking, and her belly seemed to be pouring cold water, so she whispered: "His uncle, turn off the light, come on the kang, this will freeze me to death!"
Li Lun ordered, he quickly took off all his clothes, turned off the oil lamp, and gently squeezed into the woman's warm and moist bed.
Just after dawn, Li Lun got off the kang. There was a spring breeze twice to tidy up the woman. In the morning, no matter what he said, the woman was willing.
When Li Lun returned to his tent, the children had not yet woken up. He heated the horse milk tea and put the cooked beef on the fire to roast it thoroughly. This was how Li Juan and Li Yong were woken up for breakfast.
After breakfast, Li Lun wanted to enter the city, so Li Juan and Li Yong stayed at Wang Xiuying's house.
"Daddy entered the city yesterday, didn't he bring us? Why didn't you take us today?" Li Juan pouted, looking dissatisfied.
"Today, my parents are going to go to the Yamen for business, with the children, the governor is going to scold me, Juan'er stays at my aunt's house, and sister Wen'er plays with you." Li Lun touched Li Juan's head, "Juan My child is the most obedient!"
"Well then! Daddy wants to come back earlier." Li Juan reluctantly agreed.
"Daddy come back as soon as possible!" Li Lun gave an uncertain reply, "Juan'er, take care of your brother."
"I see," Li Juan raised her little hand, "Daddy, go and come back quickly, Juan'er is waiting for Daddy!"
Li Lun came to the small hut in the city, but did not see Mu Zhiyuan and Xu Wenxiu. He felt a little nervous.
"Beautiful..." Li Lun was relieved when Wang Meili came out, "Where are they?"
"They have gone to the government office." Wang Meili took out twenty wen of copper coins from his arms and handed them to Li Lun.
"What's the matter? They gave it to you?" Li Lun stared closely at the dark red copper coin in Wang Meili's hand.
Wang Meili didn't understand the meaning of tip, "They... They rewarded me."
