On the day we received the news, we wandered outside all day, riding horses at the foot of the ranch and watching the men shoot and hunt. Jiang Xie also made a pair of small bows and arrows for Sister Qiao, but when she shot at a tree about ten steps away, Sister Qiao shot quite accurately, and every arrow missed and was all stuck in the tree. Jiang Xie applauded loudly on the side, and said, "Miss Qiao is really ten steps through Yang, it seems that if you practice again, it will definitely not be difficult to catch up with me in the future." ”
Sister Qiao's happy little face turned red, but when she went to pull out the arrow, as soon as the arrow was pulled out, the place where the tree was shot slowly oozed juice. Sister Qiao was curious at first, and then asked, "Mother, why did the tree flow?"
"It's the sap of the tree, because the arrow shoots through the bark, so it will come out. Jiang Xie added on the side: "This is called three points into the wood, right? Haha, it's the same as people being injured and bleeding." ”
It's a pity that this sycophant didn't shoot in the right place, Qiao'er blinked, and asked a little scared: "Then, does it hurt?"
Jiang Xie touched his head: "Hey, how do you know if this thing hurts." ”
Sister Qiao shook her head: "Yesterday, I read the book and said that Zi Fei Fish, Anzhi Yu Fei Le." Uncle Jiang, you're not a tree, how do you know that a tree doesn't hurt? Maybe it hurts, but it doesn't cry out in pain. ”
Jiang Xie touched his head: "This ...... Hey, your little girl's family will be foolish. ”
"I'm not going to shoot trees anymore. Sister Qiao said solemnly.
"Ah, that's easy to do, go back and put a target on you, it's soft, you can shoot and play at home." ”
After lunch, according to my habit, I took a break to sleep, but everyone else said that they were going to climb the mountain, and Shen Tian also said: "It's easy to accumulate food when you are full and sleep, so it's better to move around more." There is also a small courtyard on the hillside behind, let's go for a walk, and if we are tired, we can rest there. ”
I nodded and changed into clothes that would allow me to move around. When I got married, I made more than a dozen boxes of clothes for the four seasons, but I found that I seemed to have lost a little weight, maybe it was because I was always exercising on the ranch these days, although I wore a hat and did sunscreen measures, my skin was still a little tanned. At this time, women were no different from later generations, and they were all beautiful with white skin. So my complexion has darkened, and I'm still a little annoyed.
However, it is a good feeling to ride a horse, and once you get used to it, you will feel uncomfortable not riding for a day. I began to think seriously that it would be nice to have my home here on the ranch. There is also a large yard in the royal mansion in the city, but it is not interesting to run horses in the courtyard.
It's ...... Simply forgot everything, forgot the past, forgot the troubles......
Then we had dinner in that annex, which was simple and light. I found that Shen Tian didn't pay attention to pomp and circumstance at all, and would never make a table full of pomp, but something that was flashy and undesirable. When he was in the palace, he was more particular, and when he was in the pasture, he couldn't see that he was the prince at all, and roasted a whole sheep the night before, Jiang Xie personally cut off the most essential part of the roasted golden fragrant sheep, and everyone spread a blanket and sat on the ground, drinking milk tea on the newly stalled pancakes, and eating exactly like shepherds. In the morning, there are at most two kinds of porridge and four kinds of porridge dishes. However, although the things are simple but not rough, the milk kneaded in the steamed bun tastes milky.
The dinner in the annex is all mountain delicacies, perhaps because the annex is originally on the mountain, so the game is easy to obtain. Wind chicken, mushrooms, and even poor dishes such as fried eggs and moss were served on the table, Sister Qiao was very happy to eat, I drank a little soup, I thought it was delicious, but I couldn't explain what ingredients were put in it.
Then, a guard handed over a letter outside, we didn't bring Yahuan to the other courtyard, Ping'er took the letter, and then I took it, and then handed it to Shen Tian.
When I took the letter, I didn't know who sent it and what message it conveyed.
Shen Tian's face was calm, and after reading it, he handed me the letter, and I took it and read it.
Strictly speaking, it's not like a letter, it's just a note written in a hurry. It is written the news of Jia Province.
Jia's mother died of illness, Rongning Mansion and Daguanyuan have been seized, Jia pardon, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen and Jia Lian have all been stripped of their knighthoods, the first two are mismatched, and Jia Zheng and Jia Lian have also lost the possibility of recovery. The family property and slaves were confiscated, and only a small village that had been bought not long ago as a sacrificial field was left for them to live in.
"That's all?"
I looked up.
"Detailed news, it should be a little later. This is a flying pigeon to send a book to the palace and hurriedly sent to the pasture, and it can't write too much. ”
I nodded in understanding.
But nothing on this note is what I care about. The people I care about more are not mentioned above.
Welcoming spring, exploring spring and cherishing spring, mandarin ducks and their ......
How are they now?
Under the nest, there are no eggs. Although there is still a little leeway for the current disposal, and the masters of Jiafu are not driven to the streets, my mood is not relaxed at all. Mandarin Duck's deed of sale has been cancelled, and she is considered free, how is she now?
Also, Baochai. It is said that Baochai did not marry into the Jia family, and she should not be implicated for the time being. However, the four major families were all lost, and the Jia family fell, and the Xue family, which had already fallen and fallen, was afraid that it would be difficult to survive. The Xue family still has some assets, but they have no backers, and there are not many people who want to start? What's more, the sins made by Xue Da Fool are baskets and baskets, and they can be moved out without looking for them, which comes in handy.
It was as if a heavy stone had been pressed on my heart, and the delicious food now tasted like chewing wax. Ping'er looked at my face, and with her wit, she should have guessed what the news was. Sister Qiao......
Sister Qiao was just curious when the letter came in, but now her attention was attracted by a snow-white bird hanging under the porch outside the window. I sighed in my heart, the arrival of all this proved to Ping'er and Sister Qiao that my choice was not wrong, and I left Jiafu early to have the stable life we have now. And the rest of the people in Jia Province ...... Those pampered masters, suddenly fell from heaven, lost the honor and dignity, no arrogant slaves and extravagant maids, brocade clothes and delicacies, the small Zhuangzi that was used as a sacrificial field was a few days before I left Jiafu, hurriedly purchased, dozens of miles away from the capital, there are dozens of houses on the Zhuangzi, hundreds of acres of fields...... Hopefully, they, will be able to adapt to a new life.
Because, reality is cruel and it is impossible to make it cater to you. Therefore, it is only people who change their mentality to cater to it.
