Chapter 230: The Big Event
In February, after sending Yang's Yunzhu to get married, Yang's Liufang family left Jinyuan County, but did not immediately leave to return to the ancestral home, but stayed in Yizhou City for a few days.
The reason for the detention was a secret conversation between Jiang Chengzi and the Yang couple.
This secret conversation stemmed from the fact that Yang Wang and his wife resolutely only brought money and did not bring food back to their ancestral home, and felt that it was not too late to purchase grain when they arrived at Hongnong.
The Yang couple felt that Jiang Chengzi was too confused, this Shu road was difficult, and they brought so much dry food to eat.
"Ah Zhi, you are so childish. Although the rice in Shuzhong is fragrant, who has the reason to bring such a large amount of grain? This is transported back, and the tofu will be sold at the price of meat. Yang Wang touched Jiang Chengzi's head and said lovingly.
"Yes. My sister is confused, bring a few catties, relieve your hunger, and when we settle down in Chang'an, buy a few acres of land and plant the Shuzhong rice you like. Yang Qingrang also interjected.
Jiang Chengzi pursed his lips and only said, "I have my own reason for bringing this grain." Niang, do you know that sometimes, gold can't be exchanged for a bucket of rice?"
Yang Wang was stunned, but Yang Shuyue waved his hand and said, "Okay, we are light and simple this time, and we can't bring so much food." ”
"Yes. Before, you stocked up on grain as soon as you arrived in Yizhou, and we only had surplus grain in your warehouse when you were afraid of some disaster. Last time, you didn't want to sell the surplus grain at home, so you said let Mama Zhou watch it, wait for the first half of the year, see the market and then deal with it, and we will also rely on you. But today, you actually said to me, you have stockpiled high-quality rice and noodles in Yizhou City for more than half a year to take away, Ah Zhi, you-" Yang Wang said this, shaking his head.
"A-Niang, what I do has always been measured, and you know it. I'm not going to do something I'm not sure about. "Jiang Chengzi really doesn't want to tell the truth.
She is not interested in history, but she is particularly concerned about the era in which Li Ke lived.
If this general direction of history is still correct, then as soon as spring begins this year, the north will be "rampant with drought and locust plagues", and the people will be displaced and starved everywhere.
If the trend of history is still normal, then it is the most correct way to go back this time and bring food.
Because of this, Jiang Chengzi began to hoard grain when he came to Shuzhong.
She is a small-scale hoarder in the Yang Mansion in Jinyuan County, and she is afraid that on the day of the famine, if the Yang family is still in Jinyuan County, she can spend it safely.
At the same time, she ordered the people of Jiangfu to hoard a lot of high-quality rice and noodles for her and put them in Yizhou, thinking that if she had to return to Hongnong before the natural disaster came, then these grains could be taken away, so that the Yang family's six houses could survive the famine day safely.
"Ah Zhi, you have always been measured, but can't you tell us the reason?" Yang Shuyue thought about it, although his daughter was young, she studied under the immortals, and she should not be treated as a child. What's more, these days, it can be seen that her words and deeds are measured.
Jiang Chengzi shook his head and said, "Grandpa, I don't actually need to talk to you, I just need to entrust the caravan of Duyun Villa to use the grain for me to store in the Zhuangzi outside the ancestral house. ”
The Yang couple were surprised, but Yang Qingrang asked puzzledly, "Then why did you tell us?"
Jiang Chengzi sighed and said, "We are a family, I can't hide it from you, and you don't have to ask the reason again." ”
The Yang couple didn't speak, only glanced at each other and motioned for Yang Qing to let go.
Yang Qingrang was very smart and immediately retired.
The Yang couple pulled Jiang Chengzi into the inner room, and Yang Shuyue said very seriously: "Since it is a family, can Ah Zhi tell the truth?"
Jiang Chengzi lowered his eyes, sighed, and said, "Father, you have the feelings of a scholar who is compassionate to the heavens and people, and you have the world in mind and sympathize with the people. Just based on that, I don't want to talk to you. Moreover, I only glanced at my master's atlas occasionally, and I didn't know if I remembered it clearly, so I didn't dare to assert it. ”
In fact, she knew from the beginning that if she wanted to bring so much food, the Yang couple would definitely have to dig into the roots.
This pair of powerful men and women, living together, looks harmless to humans and animals, but their acting skills are extraordinary, and the things they can grasp must be controlled.
So, Jiang Chengzi paved the way like this, and dragged the unwarranted Pan Daochang out to take the blame.
"Say, 'What's the matter?' Looks like a big deal. Yang Shuyue frowned.
Jiang Chengzi lowered his voice and said, "I saw it on Master's map at that time, and said that at the beginning of this year, there was a locust plague and drought in the north, and hunger was everywhere. ”
"This was the case last year, when the floods were flooded. Yang Shuyue sighed, and then asked, "Exactly?"
"Father, whether it's accurate or not, how do I know? Besides, even if it's accurate, don't you have to report to the imperial court and make preparations in advance?" Jiang Chengzi asked rhetorically.
Yang Shu was silent, but Yang Wang's eyes were a lot colder when he looked at him.
Jiang Chengzi continued: "On that day, in Luoshui Grange, in order to survive, I told about the solar eclipse, which put me on the cusp. Later, the imperial court tried to test me in every way, and Qin sent me in batches, but Grandpa experienced it personally. ”
"That's because you provoked the King of Shu, and the King of Shu is sensitive. Yang Shuyue said.
To be honest, he didn't like the King of Shu. Although, when he was a child, his relationship with Yang Shufei was okay, but the identity of the King of Shu was too sensitive after all, and it would bring many disasters.
Before, he also knocked on the side to say that he wanted to stay away from the King of Shu, and Yang Wangshi only said: "If there was no King of Shu, today, our mother and son would have been buried in Luoshui Grange." Now, it's time to dissociate yourself from people. I also asked Rokuro to do this. ”
Yang Shuyue was speechless, and could only open one eye and close one eye.
Now, when Jiang Chengzi talks about causing trouble, he thinks of the identity of the King of Shu, and he is angry.
"Master, I don't like to hear what you say. Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, you are also a person who has read books, and you always understand the truth. The front accepted the favor, jumped out of the old fox's years of imprisonment, and the back always had to bear the bad things. Are you blaming Ah Zhi now?" asked Yang Wangshi sarcastically.
"That's not what I meant. Yang Shuyue naturally knew the truth. All kinds of pursuits along the way, if it weren't for this little daughter and the people of the King of Shu, the six rooms of the Yang family would have been extinct in this world.
"Then now, when discussing the matter of food, why should the master talk about this useless. Yang Wang said.
Jiang Chengzi saw that the two of them were tense, and immediately played a round and said: "Grandpa, Auntie, the King of Shu, this matter is also inappropriate for Azhi, but today it has come to this point, and there is no other way." Now, let's talk about food. ”
"What else does this say. Since you have this prophecy, even if the freight is high, you have to transport this grain back to Hongnong. Yang Wang said directly.
Yang Shuyue also nodded in agreement, and the Wang family glanced at him and said, "Don't worry about salty radishes." Your family and country are sympathetic to all living beings, but you also have to think about the future of our six houses and the fate of our wives and children. ”
"Madam, don't worry, I can handle the big things. Yang Shuyue's tone softened and assured Yang Wang.
Yang Wang sighed heavily and said: "You and I are husband and wife, but we always look forward to being old and full of children and grandchildren. ”
"Where, where. Yang Shuyue knew that he had just said the wrong thing, and now he only had to make amends. (To be continued.) )
