Chapter 4 The Dense Spring Rain
The mornings at the Grange are always very busy, and the tenants have to harvest the vegetables that are to be sent to the county seat before the light is light, and load them on the ox carts. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info wait for these things to be done to take a breath and eat breakfast, after breakfast to feed chickens and ducks to feed pigs, cattle and sheep, and then adults have to go to collect pigweed and firewood, older children with younger children or go to the field to help, or go to the mountains to pick wild fruits and dig wild vegetables.
Meng Yue stood on a high place and watched the whole morning, from the morning smoke to the adults and children going out one after another, and finally rushed to Master Meng's side to sell obediently: "Dad, you have worked hard." ”
Master Meng didn't know why: "Where does the hard work come from?"
"I can grow up so carefree, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and I have someone to serve, I can open my mouth as much as I want, that is, I don't have the bad things of the Gaomen compound, and I don't have to work as hard as Pengmen Hanhu, it's all because of my father." Although I am still young, I also understand that if a person's life is calm and comfortable, then there must be another person who bears all the wind and rain and bears all the hardships. "Meng Yue is really only fifteen years old, she is not the original owner, she took such a big advantage from others, she didn't say hard work, didn't say a few warm words, she couldn't feel sorry.
Her words made Master Meng stunned for a long time, and he touched the top of Meng Yue's hair with tears in a half-night smile and said, "If you can say this, my father will not be bitter." ”
A moment of emotion moved Master Meng to shed two lines of tears, Meng Yue was a little at a loss for a while, even in modern times, to be honest, she had never seen her father cry in front of her. Silently handing the handkerchief, and carefully teasing, it was easy to coax Master Meng well.
"For my father, I want to go to see the tenants in the village, and you also go to walk around the grange, and this place will always be handed over to you in the future, so it is better to familiarize yourself with it in advance. Bring the spring willow fine fang, and call the daughter-in-law of the grange steward for your father to find you a more clever girl as a guide. "Master Meng will go to "condole" the tenants whenever he comes, which is an old practice.
"I just want to go out and have a look, and I'll go when I change into something simpler. Meng Yue said to send Master Meng out, and then she had to breathe a sigh of relief, she leaned against the wall and thought, she has to be steady in the future, even if she wants to say nice things, she has to take it step by step. Family affection originates from blood, but it can't all be maintained by blood, at least for her, a cheap daughter, she can't just rely on blood to enjoy all this.
Meng Yue also doesn't know how to farm, and the girl called by the grange's steward's daughter-in-law to be a guide is called Yang Zao, Yang Zao's father is the head of the grange, and he is very familiar with the inside and outside of the grange, so he will come when he asks her what she wants. Meng Yue asked about it, ** Liu gave Yang Zao two pieces of silver to hit the plum blossom bill, so he had to take people around to take a look.
Unconsciously, I was greedy for the good spring in the mountains, and I walked almost two miles away, and the road was the face of a child in the spring, and it changed when I said it. There was still a little shadow of the sun when I went out, and then it suddenly started to rain again, but fortunately, there were grass pavilions built in the grange every few miles. After running a few steps, Meng Yue and the maid and the mother-in-law entered the grass pavilion, and not long after entering the grass pavilion, the rain became heavier and heavier, and it crackled on the grass pavilion.
The nearby peasants also rushed to hide from the rain, and when they saw Meng Yuezai, they turned around and ran, no matter how Meng Yue said it didn't matter, the peasants didn't squeeze into the grass pavilion, and they all went to the banyan tree in the distance. The huge grass pavilion, dozens of people can also sit open, Meng Yue is not a native of the daughter, looking a little restless.
Seeing that Meng Yue couldn't bear it, Xi Fang said: "Miss, the porter knows that you are out, at most a quarter of an hour or two, he will rush to pick you up, and when you leave, they will go back to the pavilion to avoid the rain." ”
"Well, go back and tell me to go down, and each family will send some brown sugar and ginger. Meng Yue said that he would not look at it anymore, and he could only abuse himself when he looked at it, so why bother. She is not the kind of person who can make a wish to change the world since she can't change herself, and she doesn't have the courage to stand on the other side of the world.
After thinking about it for a while, Meng Yue silently summed up in his heart: "Being the successor of socialism for so many years, but it turned out to be the class of a feudal landlord, which is really embarrassing everywhere. ”
When she was embarrassed, a small group of black-clothed people came from the mountain road in the rain, and when they saw a grass pavilion, they walked towards the grass pavilion. When they saw that there were people in the grass pavilion, they greeted them, and they rushed in to occupy half of the grass pavilion.
Meng Yue: Could it be that the one sitting down is the legendary Inspectorate Inspectorate Inspector Imperial History?
Curiously looking, the man was very decent, not squinting, only looking straight ahead. Meng Yue sat diagonally opposite the man, and as soon as he looked up and swept over, he could just catch the man's face. To tell the truth, if it is really a supervision of the imperial history, it will be a drama, because it really doesn't look like a civil official, and there is no Lang Ran Qingju who is a civil servant, but more like a martial artist.
The man's eyebrows are thick and his eyes are broad, thin as a knife, and when he looks at it, he thinks of the ten major tortures of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the factory guard torture manual, etc., cold and cold, lined with this dense spring rain, which can make people unconsciously reach out and tighten their clothes.
Well, it's definitely not the imperial history, it should be the accompanying officer and army commander.
"Why hasn't the carriage come yet. Meng Yue was not afraid, it was really cold, and the rain was not noticeable, at this time the rain was heavy, and there were small rain flowers seeping inside, and the hood was covered with her head and neck, and when the wind blew, it was too cold.
"Miss, bear with me, soon. ”
Meng Yue glanced at the person again, and wanted to ask if there was any rain leakage over there, but from beginning to end, they didn't even give her a corner of her eye. Nowadays, although the defense of men and women is not strict, but the other party is right to do this, Meng Yue has nothing to say, only hoping that the carriage will come soon.
She wears into a book world with a heroine, and naturally there is no heroine's disease, and she will look forward to the other party taking the initiative to say that there is no rain over there, and come to change places with her.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the carriage to come, and when Meng Yue boarded the carriage, he instructed: "Go and call them to the grass pavilion, and the trustee will send some ginger soup later." ”
Meng Yue was worried that the peasants would not dare to come forward because they were afraid of the officers and soldiers of the Inspectorate, and when he arrived home, he told the steward to send the ginger soup to those officers and soldiers of the Inspectorate by the way. The steward listened to the order, naturally complied, sent the thickly boiled ginger soup, and invited the officers and soldiers of the Inspectorate to get into the carriage on the return trip.
The steward did everything properly, and left another ginger soup for the officers and soldiers, and also prepared a box of freshly baked puff pastry, and when he got off the car, the leading man in black opened his mouth to thank him, and the steward did not dare to take credit, and said: "It was the order of the young lady, and I should not thank Yushi." ”
The man in black didn't say anything to thank the young lady on his behalf, and entered the west courtyard as soon as he gave his hand.
In the west courtyard, Wang Li (Tongliyin) changed his wet clothes, and when he was about to eat, a string of laughter came from outside the courtyard wall, penetrating the rain curtain and reaching Wang Li's ears.
In the grass pavilion, the drenched people and wet eyes seemed to be in front of them again.
In the Eastern Courtyard, Meng Yue, the loyal shovel officer of Wang Xingren, has been trapped in the encirclement of cute and soft hairy dumplings and cannot extricate himself......
Seeing a litter of puppies in the farmer's house, thinking that the little girl might like it, after bringing it back to Meng Yue, Master Meng found that he had suddenly lost his status in the rivers and lakes with his daughter.
