Chapter 287 The True and False Prince 4 (1/2)

The fact that the brothers of the Su family were studying was not hidden from outsiders. People in the village just felt that the whole family was in trouble. However, due to the presence of the Juren master, they could only mutter a few words at home and did not dare to gossip outside.

But in the eyes of others, this matter has other interpretations.

In Jin Shou Hou's Mansion, Zuo Yangan sneered after hearing the servant's report: "Does he know that he has no future and wants to train those losers from the Su family to work for him?"

"My aunt is quite generous to a fake son. I'm afraid she gave most of her body to him. Otherwise, how could he have the courage to raise such a big family in vain?"

He couldn't help but show resentment when he said this. When he was a child, he was raised by his aunt for two or three years, but as soon as she had biological flesh and blood, she couldn't wait to kick him out, without caring about the mother and child she had. mutual affection.

Now that she knew that she had raised her fake son as her own for so many years, she started to be a good person. She didn't drive him away on the spot, and wanted to stay by her side as her adopted son.

Although he is a bastard, he is still a descendant of his father's blood. How can he, a lowly peasant son with no connections, enjoy treatment that even he can't get?

"Master," the servant carefully guessed his thoughts and made a vicious gesture, "do you want me to find someone to destroy the brothers of the Su family and completely cut off his hope?"

"No need," Zuo Yangan shook his head and said helplessly, "My good brother! He has been praised by others since he was a child. People who have never suffered are always particularly naive."

"Does he think that everyone has a photographic memory like him and can gain fame by just studying for a few years?" When he said this, his face was twisted with jealousy, "How many children of rich and powerful families are enlightened at the age of five and ask famous teachers to teach them? Even hard work may not lead to success.”

"A few hardworking farm boys didn't start to read until they were eighteen, nineteen or twenty years old. I'm afraid their brains are dead. How do you expect them to be able to learn?"

The more Zuo Yangan talked, the more ridiculous he felt, and then he really laughed out loud, until tears came out of his eyes.

"I hope they can learn more. Only in this way will my good brother spend more energy on them and wait for three to five years, ten to eight years..."

"The more you pay, the greater your expectations. Only when they really have something to learn will they learn. When they are full of hope..."

He loosened his fingers and the cup in his hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces. He raised the corner of his mouth and said, "In the blink of an eye, all my expectations were shattered. I really can't wait to see the expression on his face when the time comes!"

"Master, this is a wonderful move!" the servant said flatteringly, "Su Yangyan has been living in a state of depression since his legs were disabled. He must have cheered up this time because he thought he could turn over."

"When he thinks he is going to succeed and we destroy his hopes, he will definitely fall into deep despair and be miserable."

"Don't mention that word in front of me," Zuo Yangan smiled and looked at him coldly, "Disgusting."

The servant was startled and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed. The blue floor tiles were soon stained with blood: "Yes, I promise never to mention it again. Master, forgive me."

"Okay," Zuo Yangan waved his long sleeves and said coldly, "Go down, you don't have to do anything for now, just send someone to watch from a distance."

"Yes, please excuse me."

***

If Yang Yan knew Zuo Yangan's plan, he would probably have to applaud and say "good intentions", but he didn't have the extra energy at this time.

In the past month, his family finally bought all the medicinal materials he wanted, and he could finally start treating his legs.

The Su family all knew that he wanted to treat the broken leg himself, but they thought he had gotten the prescription from somewhere and planned to take a bath or wrap it in the affected area. They had no idea that he was so frantic that he planned to break the bone and reattach it!

How painful it is! Ordinary people will feel their scalp numb just thinking about it.

Yang Yan didn't mean to tell them the truth. He mixed the ointment himself. When he was ready to take action, he ate enough and drank enough to tell his family not to come in and disturb him. Then he sat on the bed and groped for the broken bones, breaking the healed leg bones one by one. .

Of course the pain is painful. In order to keep your mind clear, you cannot use anesthesia. You can only stay awake and endure the huge pain. Moreover, this kind of pain is caused by yourself. Most people cannot remove that hand at all.

Fortunately, Yang Yan is not an ordinary person. He has been injured countless times during his long years of practice, and almost half of his body has been destroyed. The upper limit of the pain he can endure is naturally higher.

His forehead was already covered with cold sweat, but he could still control his hands from shaking. He calmly realigned the broken bones and reconnected them. After confirming that they were not crooked at all, he applied a layer of ointment densely, then fixed them with wooden boards, and then took them out. The strips of cloth were wrapped tightly.

He didn't even hum during the whole process. He lifted one leg and then raised the other. With both hands, there was a thin "click" sound and the bones broke. There was no expression on his face, as if the legs were not long. It's like it's on yourself.

After doing the same thing, both legs were finished. Less than an hour had passed. Only then did he feel tired all over his body. He put the things away casually, lay back, pulled up the quilt and covered him. He fell asleep within a breath.

At this time, the Su family's parents didn't know how much their fourth son had suffered. They looked at the motionless room with worry in their eyes.

"The doctors said Yan'er's leg was hopeless, but he still refused to give up." Su's mother whispered to her husband worriedly.

"He is still so young. It is normal for him not to give in. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he wants to give it a try." Su's father sighed and said, "Don't we all hope that he can get better?"

"I understand," Mother Su thought more, "It's just that Yan'er has been sad for so long and finally got back on his feet. I'm afraid that the medicine won't be effective by then. If he can't bear the blow, he will become another What should I do if it looks like before?”

"That's what you said." Su's father didn't think so much before, and became worried after hearing her words, "But what can we do? We can't stop Yan'er from trying, right?"

That is of course impossible.

Mother Su frowned and was silent for a long time, her heart full of bitterness: "Why is this child Yan'er so miserable? If only I had been more careful and the two families didn't make mistakes. Didn't the fourth child live happily in our house before? ”

"If we hadn't made a mistake, our family's life would be a bit harder, but it would still be better than being at the top for so many years and suddenly falling down, and having such an accident that would ruin our lives."

"How can I blame you?" Su's father quickly consoled him, "At that time, the war was in chaos, and you were lucky that nothing happened to you even though you were pregnant. You don't know that when I heard about it, I was so frightened that I almost flew out of my mind. "

"Let's not always think about the worst. Maybe the medicine Yan'er made will really be effective?" Seeing that she still looked depressed, he added, "The matter has not yet come to an end. Instead of worrying here, you should think more about it." If so, how can we deal with him then?"

This sentence touched Su's mother, and she immediately became energetic: "Old man, this is the most correct thing you said today. We can't help Yan'er even if we think about it. I'll go find the boss and the others right now. Discuss it, and if it really doesn’t work out, let them stay with you for more guidance.”

Yang Yan, who knew nothing about his parents' worries, slept deeply all night. When he woke up the next day, although his legs were still swollen and painful, he could feel that the bone grafting was successful and he was in a good mood.

The heavy curtains did not block the light outside. It was obviously getting late at this time, but no one came to urge him to get up. The Su family knew that he was still a little weak, so they were happy to let him sleep for a while.

He got dressed by himself and moved himself to the wheelchair with his arms. The door was modified by Carpenter Su after the wheelchair was made. It had no threshold and was wider. He turned the wheel easily. came out.

"Good morning, fourth brother." The four brothers of the Su family were boxing in the yard. When they saw him, they smiled and greeted him loudly.

"Good morning, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, and fifth brother." It was the same as usual. Yang Yan immediately replied, but he didn't know if it was an illusion. He always felt that something was wrong with the brothers today.

Well... the smile on his face was too bright, and it stayed on for too long, a little stiff, and a little fake.

What are they doing?

Yang Yan pretended not to notice and went to fetch water and wash up as usual. He could not accept the care of his old mother with peace of mind. He had been doing these things by himself ever since he got a wheelchair.

Su's mother advised him not to move, so she could only install ramps made of wooden boards everywhere in the house to make it easier for him to move around.

At first, several brothers from the Su family also wanted to help him, but he decisively refused, and seeing that he was indeed fine, they never interfered again. They were all big men, and they did not have the care to care for their brothers as if they were precious flowers.

But today Yang Yan just turned his wheelchair and came to the well. Boss Su had already rushed over and dropped the bucket with a clang, and picked up a bucket of water in twos and twos.

She quickly ran into the kitchen and scooped out a ladle of hot water, mixed it in the washbasin, rubbed a handful of hot wool and handed it to him.

Yang Yan, who had no time to stop him: "..."

There really is a problem.

He took it slowly and said: "I can do these things myself, and I don't have to bother my brother anymore. If you feel that you have too much energy and want to vent, why not add half an hour to today's run."

Brother Su, who wanted to let his younger brother feel the care of his relatives: "..."

嘤——

After the boss was defeated, none of the brothers dared to work to please him anymore. Yang Yan taught his brothers ten Chinese characters, and told the fifth brother an article to let him understand the meaning on his own, and spread out pen and paper under the eaves. .

He just broke his legs and reattached them last night. Now his legs are still in pain, but he acts like a normal person. His thoughts are clear and he writes without any sluggishness. He writes the second part of the storybook quickly. The end of the department.

The brothers didn't know how much pain he was suffering. Seeing that his expression was as normal, they quietly bit their ears and said, "Looking at the way the fourth brother looks like this, is it possible that his preparation is working?"

"Are you stupid? What kind of medicine can take effect in one night? Do you think it is an elixir?"

"I don't think it's as scary as mom said, right? Fourth brother is open-minded and won't get stuck in a dead end so easily."

"Little Five, didn't you see the look of despair on Old Four's face before? We are just taking precautions for the future. Is this how this sentence is used? I remember it clearly when Fourth Brother talked about it yesterday."

"Big Brother, it's Wei Ran, not the future."

"Oh, I remember..."

"Take, take, take." Yang Yan knocked on the desk: "It seems that the brothers have already recognized a few words, and Fifth Brother has understood the meaning of the article. Why don't I test you now?"

"No, no, it's only been less than an incense stick, how can it be so fast!" The brothers retracted their heads with a whoosh, sat straight, and said seriously that they were studying hard and not slacking off.

But Yang Yan was very sharp-eyed and had heard their conversation, which they thought was quiet enough, and almost guessed the reason why they were abnormal today.

I felt angry and amused at the same time. If they did this, a sensitive person would probably feel that he was a useless person, right?

"Brothers, write an article for each word, and the fifth brother will copy the article ten times!" Although it was out of good intentions, it was not feasible to skip class, so it was just right to practice calligraphy.

"Ah——"

There was a wailing in the makeshift tent.

After lunch, Yang Yan went to talk to Su's mother for a while, trying to reassure her. Although she agreed, she knew from her expression that she didn't listen.

Yang Yan had no choice but to use the reason that the Su brothers' actions made her feel troubled and asked her to tell them not to do weird things anymore.

Su's mother realized that her good intentions had done bad things, and she quickly agreed. The Su family once again returned to its previous peace, but the family was always shrouded in a cloud.

He had no choice about this. He said everything he could, but he couldn't stop everyone from worrying about their relatives. He thought that after a while, they would naturally get better when they saw him getting better, so he didn't care anymore.

Time passed quietly. Yang Yan completed the remaining nine volumes of the storybook in three months at the speed of one volume every ten days. As expected, his storybook became popular.

In addition to bringing him a large amount of income, half of the literati in the capital are now discussing who this Xianyun Layman is and want to invite him out to make friends with everyone.

However, Yang Yan acted cautiously. He disguised himself for Su Wudi and others when he first sent them to submit their works, and later taught them some disguise techniques.

When the reputation spread, the brothers had already acquired some martial arts skills, and their whereabouts became more difficult to find. Even Zuo Yangan, who had been watching the Su family, did not realize that the storybook was written by him, let alone others.

This day was the end of the story that Su Sange went to Beijing alone to deliver. When he came back, his face was not very good: "Fourth brother, when I came back, I saw Zhang Laizi looking at our house again. This is not the first time. I am afraid he has bad intentions."

In He'an Village, "Su" is a big surname, but there are also many people with other surnames, most of whom fled here during the disaster, and some settled here to seek refuge with relatives.

Zhang Laizi's family is the latter. Most of them are xenophobic these days. They have only moved here for a few years and have not been able to fully integrate. The good jobs in the village are generally not their turn, and their life is relatively difficult.

On weekdays, the Su family and the Zhang family have no social interaction. The two families are one at the head of the village and the other at the end of the village. It is rare to see each other a few times a year. In the past six months, he has often been seen near the Su family.

In the past, the Su family would not think much about it. Recently, the family has a lot of money, and the Su brothers are often asked to think about it by the fourth brother, so they noticed this strange thing.

After reading the story in the void space, the original owner suspected that his fall off the cliff and disability might not be an accident. After Yang Yan came, he paid attention to the surroundings and found that Zhang Laizi was monitoring his family, but he had never made it public.

Now even the slowest third brother in the family noticed it, so he did not hide it anymore and told everyone about it during the storytelling time that night.

The brothers have been more flexible recently and immediately reacted: "Is it not an accident that the carriage fell off the cliff at that time?"

Su's father and mother's face turned pale: "Yan'er, someone wants to harm you?"

"I have such a suspicion, but I have no evidence." Since Yang Yan decided to speak out, he did not hide it from them.

"Who is it? Who would do this? Who is so cruel?" Su's mother asked repeatedly, and later it turned into sobbing, and tears could not help but burst out.

Her fourth son was only sixteen years old, and his best years had just begun, but he was ruined like this. She would rather hurt herself than see him suffer like this.

"Father, mother, brother, and fifth brother," Yang Yan smiled and said, "I just had some doubts because someone was watching nearby. I'm not sure if someone really wanted to harm me. It's possible that it was an accident."

"It's been so long now, and it can't be verified. I'm telling you all this today so that you can be careful and not be harmed by others."

"Report to the authorities!" Fifth brother Su pounded the bed and said, "Fourth brother, let's report to the authorities. You are a scholar after all. If you were harmed like this, the authorities will definitely investigate it strictly. They are experts in this area and may be able to find out the truth."

"How can it be so easy?" Yang Yan shook his head and said, "Not to mention that it's been almost a year and the clues would have been gone. Even if I were lucky enough to find out that they were the people I suspected, it would be useless. Maybe by then Instead, he will be slapped down and falsely accused."

"Does Yan'er mean that the murderer is from the Jin Shou Hou Mansion?" Su's mother was shocked. This was the only noble person her family could relate to, so she immediately thought of this.

"It's hard to say. Of course, someone in the Hou family had a grudge against me, but it's hard to guarantee that it wasn't from outside the house." Yang Yan said, "I used to be kind to others and rarely had conflicts with others. But to be conceited, based on the way I showed myself at that time His talent will inevitably arouse the jealousy of villains.”

"I used to be the eldest son of the Hou family. Naturally, no one dared to make trouble in front of me. Later, my life experience was exposed. It's not surprising that some people want to add insult to injury."

"Isn't it as difficult as finding a needle in the sea?" Brother Su scratched his head, "How about I catch Zhang Laizi and beat him up, and ask him who sent him here."

"It's the second brother who is 'looking for a needle in a haystack'," Su Fifth Brother corrected, "I'm afraid it's useless to hit him. Those wealthy families will never come forward on their own when looking for someone to do things. Those who are too evil-minded will turn around a few times. And didn't Fourth Brother say Well, he has suspicions in his heart."

"Who is trying to harm you?" Brother Su and the three brothers immediately said, "Fourth brother, tell us and we will avenge you."

"First of all, I'm just a suspicious person. I'm not sure which one it is. We can't go after them one by one. I don't think anyone will admit to harming others without evidence."

Yang Yan reasoned with them bit by bit: "Secondly, I have already said that the person I suspect is from an extraordinary family. Don't blame my brother for saying discouraging words. With the current situation of our family, if we don't talk about it if we can't fight, we will endanger ourselves." Get in."

"Even so, we can't just watch you being bullied in vain. Even if we risk our lives, I will help you get revenge!" Brother Su said excitedly.

Second brother Su and third brother Su also nodded in agreement.

"Yang Yan is here to thank you brothers for your kindness," Yang Yan cupped his hands and said, "But as the saying goes, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. This matter can be dealt with slowly. I don't want to see everyone doing it for me. People fight so hard that their families are destroyed.”

"Fourth brother is right," Su fifth brother followed, "and with the current situation, even if we fight against others regardless of the loss of our family, we may not be able to hurt the other party."

This sentence made everyone feel sad. The reality is so cruel. It is too difficult for ordinary people to seek justice from powerful people.

"Brothers, if you want to help fourth brother, why not study hard and practice martial arts? When our family climbs up, one day we can take revenge." Su Wu's words were resounding. He was not only telling his brothers, he was also setting goals for himself. .

When Yang Yan saw the three brothers thinking deeply, he couldn't help but give his younger brother a thumbs up in his heart. In fact, he would tell this story today. Firstly, he wanted everyone to be careful when going out, and secondly, it was to inspire the three brothers. .

Brother Su and others are not lazy people, but that refers to work. Perhaps because they have no ambition in their hearts, they are very passive in reading and learning calligraphy and need supervision before they can work hard.

Now that they know that they are not safe around them, I think they will have a sense of urgency in their hearts, so that he will not waste his words in vain.

And things did not go as he expected. The three brothers began to work hard the next day, and no longer had the perfunctory look of muddling along before.

In order not to scare the three sisters-in-law, this matter was hidden from them. It was very strange for the three of them to see their husband working so hard, but it was a good thing to make progress. Although they were surprised, they were still very supportive.

Su's fifth brother had already decided to take the imperial examination. He was already very diligent and spent even more energy after this incident. The brothers all held their breath and wanted to learn something good so that they could avenge their brothers, and also I can't do anything so that I won't be bullied again in the future.

Father Su and Mother Su became a little depressed, feeling guilty that they were unable to help their son. However, after Yang Yan quietly revealed that his legs had improved and he stood up in front of them, the two of them felt much better.
