It's not that she is angry at her daughter for making her own decisions, but just looking at her moist eyes at him, and looking at her innocent and carefree son, no amount of anger will dissipate.

Mu Yangling was very curious, "Father, what agreement does our Mu family have with the village?"

Mu Shi glanced at his wobbly son, pointed to the small stool and said, "Move here and sit."

Mu Yangling hurried over to fetch two stools, and sat in front of Mu Shi with his younger brother.

Mu Shi said sadly: "I wanted to wait until you grow up to tell you, so that you don't get resentment in your heart and look crooked, but now it seems that you are worthy of being the seeds of my Mu family. You are kind-hearted, little At a young age, I will think of ways to help others.”

Mu Yangling was blushed by his father's thick skin, and Shu Wanniang, who was sitting at the door making clothes, burst out laughing. Only the naive little Bowen looked at his father proudly.

"Be honest, don't teach the children badly." Shu Wanniang said angrily: "Since you want to talk, explain the matter clearly, so that the children will not have any questions in the future."

Mu Shi knew that she was talking about his aunt Fang Liu, and his relationship with other relatives was not bad, but with Fang Liu, he didn't even care about his superficial affection, the kind that he didn't give gifts every year.

Mu Shi touched his son's head, and said: "It's been a long time since you said it, and you have to start from your grandfather." Mu Shi looked at his daughter carefully, and said: "Ah Ling, you look so good. Seven points like your grandfather, you can imagine how handsome your grandfather is, right?"

Mu Yangling opened his mouth wide.

"Back when your grandfather settled down in Linshan Village, it caused a sensation in all the towns and villages. Not to mention those big girls, even the married daughter-in-laws forgot to walk when they saw your grandfather." Mu Shi looked at his daughter regretfully and said: " It's a pity that although your facial features resemble your grandfather's, your skin color doesn't inherit your grandfather's talent, you get dark when you get sunburned, how could you know that your grandfather's face is as white as jade, even after years of exposure to wind and sun, his skin color still remains the same."

Mu Yangling: "..." She touched her face, is her complexion really that bad? She is only nine years old now, and although she is a bit darker, her skin is delicate, her pores are invisible, and her face is smooth. She looks so beautiful when she looks in the mirror every day.

Xiao Bowen looked at his sister, then at his father, and asked, "Father, then you must not look like your grandfather. Do you look like your grandmother?"

Mu Shi's face darkened, "...I look like my grandfather."

In a word, Mu Yangling's grandfather, Mu Yan, was very handsome. As soon as he came, the hearts of all the big girls in Linshan Village and nearby villages fell on him, including Mu Yangling's grandmother Liu Erniang and her aunt. Mother-in-law Liu Sanniang.

In the end, Mu Yan proposed marriage to Liu Erniang, which made Liu Sanniang very unhappy. Fortunately, Mu Yan is not without flaws.

Although he is handsome, he has no parents, no brothers and sisters, and he is alone. In addition, he only has a thatched hut at the foot of the mountain to live in, and he doesn't even have any land. However, the Fang family that Liu Sanniang settled down afterwards can be regarded as a village. good family.

Liu Sanniang could only keep hinting to herself that she looked down on Mu Yan and Liu Erniang in this respect.

So although Liu Sanniang was jealous, it wasn't too much, but not long after, Mu Yan, who she despised in her heart, bought a large piece of land at the foot of the mountain, and then paid to build five green brick and black tile houses. The betrothal gift given was the first in Linshan Village.

Liu Sanniang's jealousy turned into jealousy, not to mention Liu Erniang's life after marriage is so happy.

It is natural for men in the Mu family to love their wives, so Mu Yan doesn't let Liu Erniang go to work in the fields anymore, he just needs to take care of the family's vegetable field and do some housework.

When Liu Sanniang was twenty-five years old, she seemed to be thirty, while Liu Erniang, who was one year older than her, seemed to be in her early twenties. The two sisters lived in the same village day and night, seeing each other day and night, and that kind of jealousy gnawed at her all the time. heart of.

It wasn't until Mu Shi's birth that she regained the game.

When Mu Shi was first born, the characteristics of the Hu people were not strong, but he grew up too fast. At the age of five, he already had long hands and feet like a seven-year-old child. At this time, his eyes already had some clues.

Liu Sanniang was the first to find out, so she spread rumors in the village. At first, she suspected that Liu Erniang was cheating because Mu Shi didn't look like his parents.

Does his father want to say that she is a beauty, and his mother is also a delicate beauty. As a result, the Mu Shijun born is handsome, but also too strong, and his facial features are deeper than children of the same age. After the spread, the rumors suddenly started.

Liu Erniang wanted to die, but Mu Yan knew everything, because his son looked so much like his father, so he could only admit that he was of barbarian blood.

Because the Hu people and the Han people have been at war, there have been a lot of intermarriages between Hu and Han people in recent years. Although the Liu family was angry at Mu Yan's concealment, seeing that the other party had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, the matter was exposed.

But Liu Sanniang was unwilling to let it go. First, she instigated the children in the village to reject and beat Mu Shi, and then the woman rejected Liu Erniang before.

Mu Shi's force value is high, and the children in the village rarely beat him, so it is the children in the village who are beaten by him, and the parents naturally have opinions when the children are beaten. He felt that Mu Shi had the blood of Hu people after all, and he was so cruel that he always bullied the children in the village.

But Mu Yan and Liu Erniang didn't take the children's fights to heart. When they found out, the Mu family had already been excluded by the entire Linshan Village.

At that time, Mu Shi was only seven years old. Since then, he has no playmates. Most of them go hunting in the mountains with his father, or squat in front of the house to play.

Liu Ting's cousins ​​came to him to play from time to time, but every time they went back, they would be pushed aside by the children in the village.

Liu Daqian and Liu Erqian sensed that something was wrong, and secretly investigated, but they found the younger sister Liu Sanniang. There was internal strife in the Liu family, and they could only swallow the bitter fruit, except calling Mu Yan and his wife and scolding Liu Sanniang. There is no way to order her to stop slandering the Mu family.

Liu Sanniang didn't restrain herself just because she saw that her natal family was unwilling to make things big.

Therefore, the relationship between the Mu family and Linshan Village gradually became tense until the military disaster fifteen years ago.

In the winter of fifteen years ago, during the snowstorm in the north, a group of Hu people secretly crossed the border and went southward, looting and looting all the way. People fled to Linshan Village.

At that time, there were many young and strong people in the village, but very few people had the courage to pick up things and resist. The 348 people from forty-eight households in the village almost became lambs waiting to be slaughtered. The old and the young retreated into the mountains.

Mu Shi is familiar with the mountains and forests, and was assigned by Mu Yan to lead the way, while he led the village's young and strong to resist behind.

But in fact, he is the only one who can contribute, or, if you count Liu Erniang, who was desperately hacking aside with a big knife, when he was carried back, he was hit by a total of seventeen knives, and only one breath was left. He alone killed twenty-one people.

He only had time to take a look at his wife and children before closing his eyes. Liu Erniang was already injured, and at this time she was even more distressed. She died holding her husband that night.

Mu Shi lost his parents overnight, which was a blow to him, so at that time, he hated the cowardice and incompetence of the people in Linshan Village even more.
