Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s eyes locked.
They only asked two questions, and this person had already spilled so much. It seemed that he was usually a talkative person, and it was difficult for him to stop once he started talking.
With many things shared, there was only one meaning. This was Da Chen and there was a big tyrant who made the people live in misery.
“Then what’s the name of the tyrant you’re talking about?” Jiang Yue asked.
The short farmer said, “I didn’t know at first, but from all the things he did I heard that he kills people in the palace every day. Many people curse him behind his back, especially in the streets and alleys of the town. My son and I have heard it more than once. I knew it then. His name is Shi Yuan.”
“Then what are your names? How old are you?” Jiang Yue asked immediately.
“My name is Zhang Dazhu. The village chief had read books and said that it meant being a bamboo. I’m thirty-three.” As he spoke, the short farmer pointed at the big farmer who was still lying on the grass and could not move. “He’s my son, Zhang Shoushou. He used to be skinny when he was born, so I wanted to give him a different name. But the village chief insisted on naming him Shoushou because it meant longevity. Anyways, I can’t read and write, so I just followed whatever the village chief insisted on.”
“Nineteen?” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan exchanged glances. Didn’t this mean that Zhang Dazhu had a son, Zhang Shoushou when he was fourteen?
Although people got married early in ancient times, very few people still got married and had children at such an early age.
“That’s right. Shoushou is nineteen years old. His family was poor and he could not find a wife for him. I don’t even have a wife myself. Even if I do, I should be the one marrying first, right?” Zhang Dazhu said. Then, he remembered something that wasn’t right, “Right, Shoushou isn’t my biological child. He’s my neighbor’s child. My neighbor and his wife both passed away from an illness back then. They didn’t have any relatives, so I brought Shoushou home to raise him.
My family’s conditions aren’t good, and no girl will marry me. I can’t give Shoushou a mother… Anyway, it’s fine for me to live with Shoushou. With another woman at home, we’ll probably be more restrained with our meals and life.”
Hearing this, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both fell silent.
This person did not look like he was lying. Moreover, they could tell that Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou were not very cunning people…
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other again before Jiang Yue spoke again. “Since you are like this because you’ve had harder days, and your ultimate goal is to get food, and you don’t have any evil intentions to harm others, then my husband and I will not pursue this matter of you wanting to rob us. But let’s make it clear first, we are going to let your son go, you have to take care of yourself. If you want to fight us again, we won’t let you off.”
Zhang Dazhu replied. “We’re not that stupid. It’s obvious that we’re not your match at all.”
Jiang Yue nodded and then looked at Xue Yan.
Only then did Xue Yan loosen his hand and straighten his back.
Zhang Dazhu hurried forward and helped his son, Zhang Shoushou, up. Zhang Shoushou was a little hot-tempered and impulsive. Now that he was released, he instinctively wanted to pounce on Xue Yan again. Zhang Dazhu quickly hugged his son, but his son was too tall. He could only hug his son’s waist to stop his son from getting carried away by his impulse.
