165 days on each side
Chapter 165: Heaven on Each Side
On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Liuniang still ate a meal of dumplings.
Although flour is not as fresh and tender as at home, flour is not. During this time, they were not accustomed to eating local food, and they rarely saw the main flour eaten. Therefore, Liuniang guessed that the flour here is still relatively rare.
The dumpling filling is made by Erqiao with winter bamboo shoots and chicken. Because I wanted other vegetables, I couldn't seem to find the right ingredients for a while.
But Liuniang still eats very sweet.
Er Qiao brought a plate of vinegar to Liuniang and put it in front of him, "This vinegar can't be compared with the vinegar made by the fifth girl, the master tried to use some to add flavor." ”
Liuniang nodded and responded. "I saw that the taro they sent was fine, so I steamed some and tasted it. ”
After all, you have to learn to follow the local customs.
Er Qiao answered, and several girls gathered around the room to eat.
Tonight, no one accompanied the New Year, no one had a New Year's dinner together, and no one gave themselves New Year's money.
Liuniang was a little lost.
But the person who is completely opposite to Liu Niang's mood is Yu Zhonghe, who is a guest in the Jinling Governor's Mansion.
Yu Zhonghe was holding two delicate purses in his hands, which were given to him by Yun Shunjin and Zhuang. It's the same as what Siniang sisters and brothers are holding in their hands.
This made his heart feel uncomfortable.
Since my father's death, no one really treats me as a child. Give yourself New Year's money, which makes your heart a little touched.
Originally, he was left by Yun Shunjin as an outsider, and he was a little awkward. If he hadn't really been relieved to Siniang, he would have really left a long time ago. I wanted to open my mouth several times, but I was avoided by Yun Shunjin. Otherwise, where would you be so blind, and spend the New Year in someone else's house.
Now that the New Year's money is given, it proves that he is not an outsider, and people do not regard him as an outsider.
When he looked up, he saw Siniang with her head down, her face was ruddy, but she didn't dare to look at herself, Yu Zhonghe's heart became uncomfortable.
He liked this girl, and told himself to give her up, as painful as a blunt knife cutting flesh.
But the conditions put forward by this Lord Yun really made him at a loss.
Today, it's even more of a dilemma.
When I came out of the house and watched the fireworks rising in the sky, my heart hurt even more. himself and Siniang, did they also follow the fireworks, after a moment of brilliance, the smoke disappeared.
He had a deep unwillingness in his heart.
"Why don't you bring a cloak when you come out?" Siniang walked over and handed him the cloak. Looking at him, he slowly lowered his head and smiled shallowly.
He wanted to say for a moment, I'll take you away. Let's go far away and ignore these troubles. But I couldn't open my mouth.
He felt despicable, how could he do such a thing? Siniang said that she had been taught by Confucianism since she was a child, so did she also have those great righteousness in her heart? Did she also feel that she was a coward?
Yu Zhonghe looked at Siniang, his words were blocked in his throat, and he couldn't say a word.
Siniang raised her head and looked up at the fireworks, "Jinling is really prosperous, better than the capital." ”
Yu Zhonghe followed Siniang's line of sight and also looked at the sky, and there were several fireworks rising, blooming like peonies. "Jinling is rich and rich, and it is generous, as it has been in previous years. It's not surprising that you've seen more in the future. However, in the capital, most of them are high-ranking families, powerful families, and everything has regulations, even if the family has thousands of family wealth, they dare not be so indulgent. I'm afraid that the emperor who is sitting in the palace will feel that the luxury is too much, but it has become a crime. ”
Siniang glanced at Yu Zhonghe, her tone still had a sense of Jianghu, and she had a lot of contempt for the powerful. She didn't plan to go around in circles anymore, and asked bluntly: "My father told you what he meant, and I heard that you don't want to." ”
"I do!"
Marry you! Of course I do!
Yu Zhonghe silently added in his heart before he said, "Although I am willing, I can't afford the dowry that Lord Yun asked for." ”
Siniang chuckled, "Brother Yu, you are worried about your brother, and you are afraid that the brothers of the Cao Gang will be involved and die." But Brother Yu, you may have drilled the tip of the horns. How do you know that others don't want to?"
Yu Zhonghe looked at Siniang with some puzzlement in his eyes.
Siniang's smile bloomed at the corner of her lips, "Brother Yu is a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune, but others may not be." If they are really indifferent to fame and fortune, how can the Cao Gang compete for the position of the leader. If the position of a gang leader is still like this, then if they can be given a chance to advance, will they not be happy? It is said that wealth and wealth are in danger, for the eldest brother, it is not worth it, and compared to people, it is a good opportunity to change the court. From then on, it is no longer called reckless, and it is no longer necessary to add blood to the knife edge to mix a bowl of food. Their sons were able to enter the academy and study for the imperial examination. The daughter can marry into a better family, and the young grandmother who makes clothes to reach out for food and open her mouth. Brother Yu, how can you be so sure that they will not be willing? You Jianghu people, roll in the river, and grab food from bandits and bullies. Who doesn't hang their head on the waistband of their trousers. The same risk, but the reward is completely different, you say, what will they choose?"
Yu Zhonghe was dumbfounded for a while, and he couldn't answer!
Yes, what will they choose? They will definitely agree, from the elders to the boatmen, and there is no one who is unhappy. The restrictions brought by identity, how many grievances and sufferings they have suffered, only the people of the Cao Gang know themselves.
Even if you put your life into it, you can change the identity of a good citizen or even an official to future generations, who would not want to.
Even if the Cao Gang is fighting fiercely now, as soon as the news comes out, the gang will immediately calm down. No one will have an opinion, and no one will raise objections to their young gang leader. Today's chaos can be contained in an instant.
Because he has a powerful Yue family.
Yu Zhonghe raised his hand and wiped his face, "You're right!" His tone was a little stunned, full of exhaustion, knowing that he would lose the lives of many brothers, but wouldn't he do it himself?
Since Yun Shungong has the idea of the Cao Gang, there is actually not much difference between having himself and not having himself. He could have found someone else to work with. Whoever can find such an opportunity for everyone will naturally gain the hearts of the people. There is no suspense about the position of the leader of this gang. Even if he is a young helper, he can't stop the heart of the gang to climb up.
People told themselves that they also took their daughter, which can be regarded as taking a fancy to themselves and giving them a chance.
For a while, he was a little confused by his previous extreme understanding.
There really isn't a girl in the family who understands things.
Siniang smiled slightly, stood quietly beside him, only tilted her head and watched the fireworks. And then the smile was brighter than fireworks.
Yun Shunjin behind the pillars under the gallery slowly retreated.
Of course, it is most appropriate for Siniang to say this. If you are yourself, this will become a coercion in disguise. At first, he hoped that this kid would figure it out by himself, but he didn't expect this person to drill the tip of the horns, and he really couldn't pull ten cows.
Yu Zhonghe looked at Siniang's smiling face, his heart pounded, "You come to persuade me, do you expect me to agree?"
Promise what?
Is it a family affair?
Siniang blushed instantly, "No face and no skin!" She hated him so much, stomped her foot, turned around and walked back.
Yu Zhonghe's heart was instantly full.
can change the title, and by the way, I got a lovely daughter-in-law, which should be earned by myself.

There were no fireworks in the sky outside the plug, and no stars could be seen. Only the flying snowflakes, the raging winds, and the blazing bonfires in the tents, and the hot butter tea.
But all of this is not the taste that Sanniang likes.
Since she left Shengcheng, she knew that King Ming had taken her another way. A road that no matter how much Princess Hada rushes, it is impossible to catch up.
He didn't want anyone to disturb him and himself.
Wu Niang leaned on the couch. The couch was covered with a wolf's skin mattress, and she was covered with a bearskin quilt. It's not cold!, but it's really uncomfortable.
She misses the texture of silk, the lightness of cotton and linen, and even the taste of the fire.
In such an environment now, she only thinks of vulgarity and savagery. Nothing else.
The curtain on the tent was lifted, and King Ming came in with a cold air.
I saw Sanniang crooked on the couch, her long black hair hanging down, revealing a white smiling face. Those black eyes and red lips are indescribably tempting.
The shoulders exposed outside the mattress were small and thin, and the light red veil wore on her body, making the skin under her more and more hazy and charming.
"King Ming. Sanniang pulled up the quilt and covered her shoulders and neck, "In Daqin, you have to knock on the door when you enter someone else's room." ”
King Ming raised his eyebrows and glanced back at the curtain of the tent, "I'm sorry, Wumeng doesn't have a door, this king is really used to it." Thank you for your understanding. ”
Sanniang took a deep breath, "You should ask at the door first, and get my permission before you can come in." ”
King Ming took two steps forward, "I asked, will you allow it?"
Of course not!
Three mothersy knots. That's a scoundrel. "You promised me to respect me. ”
"But you're going to have to give me the power to pursue you. King Ming stubbornly looked at Sanniang and refused to back down.
Sanniang's patience almost ran out, "I'm married, His Royal Highness King Ming!"
King Ming walked over and sat beside Sanniang, "In Wumeng, as long as you can afford the price, you can buy the other party's wife." If you accept me, I will definitely find a way for the Khan to give you to me. ”
This attitude like disposing of livestock made Sanniang angry, "I am the princess of Daqin, His Royal Highness King Ming! I hope that I don't need to remind you a second time." She saw that King Ming's face changed, so she restrained her expression and said: "If I like Your Highness, I don't want Your Highness to pay any price, I am willing to ...... ...... with you" 166 Reading Network
