55. Chapter 55

"The supreme virtue is worthy of heaven and earth, and he loves the people like a son." The patriarch wanted to say something, but found that his vocabulary was really poor.

Shao Yunhua smiled, the patriarch is just old and experienced, not necessarily a well-educated person, and it is normal to have no vocabulary, so he also bowed his head and said: "The Supreme naturally loves the people like a son." ”

"In that case, Shangguan will rest first, and let's count it ourselves first?"

"It's fine." Shao Yunhua gave them time to discuss the matter.

Shao Yunhua and his group finally slept in the house, there was not much redundancy in the house, she still lived with Shui Dai, after washing, the two of them changed into regular clothes and sat down opposite each other to wait for the meal, and they could have a good meal today.

"I don't think the old man is sincere." Shui Dai has a lot more eyes than Shao Yunhua.

"Hmm. Also, I always felt that they had an inexplicable hostility towards us. Shao Yunhua is more sensitive to this.

"Hmph." Shui Dai sneered: "Looking at the experience they have shown to rent, I am afraid that the previous governors of the county have not done a good job." ”

"That's right." Shao Yunhua nodded, but still wrinkled his eyebrows: "But it's still not right, the magistrate didn't do a good thing, now that I say these benefits, the hostility should disappear, but their defense and hostility have not disappeared at all, especially the stone plate." ”

"Strange, why is that? The official is not right, you and I have changed, why do you have such an attitude towards the supreme of the imperial court? Shui Dai is also very strange, the old man praises the Supreme, and his words are good, but she can still hear whether she is sincere or not.

"We won't leave immediately, just ask someone else." Shao Yunhua is still relatively optimistic.

"Hmm." When the two of them were talking, the four maids had already prepared the meal, and after a rough look, there were two more dishes, well, a rough dish, one is a monkey leg also known as Cantonese fern, this thing and bracken are close relatives, but bracken is picked one by one, this thing is a cluster, and this thing has two colors, the taste is not as good as bracken, it is better to feed in large quantities.

There is also a plate of green vegetables, green, clumps of green, and it looks really bad.

"Shisun, these are two dishes added by the Canglan clan of the heavens." Emerald will refer to these two dishes.

"The color is not very good, and the taste is not good." Qingyu couldn't help but complain.

"Qingyu." Shui Dai said this, and Qingyu immediately shut up.

"This is the Guangdong fern, not a seasonal thing, at this time to pick most of them are old, can not cook, and this thing can only be eaten fresh, they can make this plate, obviously have a heart." Shui Dai is mixed at the bottom and knows a lot about these dishes.

Qingyu lowered her head, she couldn't judge people by her appearance, she remembered, but she didn't understand the essence, this dish was so hard-won.

Shao Yunhua's eyes were on the green of the things in a clump again, four small balls, the size of a child's fist, this is a vegetable dumpling, but he doesn't know what the dish is.

"This local name is Pigeon Arms, I don't know what the scientific name is, this thing is very small, it looks inconspicuous, but it tastes unique, and it is fragrant, and it does not disperse for a few days, because it only grows on the ground in the dense forest, it is very rare, and the price is extremely high." Shui Dai explained again.

"So, they have a heart." Shao Yunhua was confused.

"yes." Shui Dai was also confused, if she was defensive and hostile, why did she entertain them with such a precious thing?

"Do you think they are hostile to us, or are they hostile?" Shao Yunhua was stunned, and the following words were not said, but Shui Dai fully understood.

The two of them ate a meal full of doubts and began to go out for a walk, Shao Yunhua and Shui Dai deliberately, Shui Dai was wearing luxurious and beautiful clothes, and the absolute standard of everyone's ladies was high-profile, dignified and atmospheric; Shao Yunhua is dressed in a short beat, but all of his body is refined, low-key and luxurious, and his clothes are full of dark lines.

As soon as these two clothes were put out, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the village. How many girls looked at the exquisite jewelry on the two people's eyes, this is really beautiful.

A bold girl walked over, bit her plump lip, and finally spoke: "Shangguan, how much does your clothing cost?" ”

"Did you ask me or hers?" Shao Yunhua's eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and he is very kind.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Shui Dai: "Hers." "Absolutely sure tone.

Shui Dai smiled slightly: "My clothes are Luoyang brocade, embroidered with Suzhou embroidery, and the thread is gold and silver thread, this dress is worth a hundred taels of silver, excluding the jewelry on my body." ”

The little girl's eyes almost didn't fall out, a hundred taels of silver, that is enough for her life for more than 20 years, just such a dress, and then her eyes dimmed, not to mention a hundred taels, even half of the silver money herself didn't have.

Shao Yunhua smiled but did not speak.

With this one, everyone avoided them even more, worried that if they accidentally touched the clothes, it would not be enough to sell themselves.

Back in the room, Cui Shan really didn't understand what the two little ladies meant, but they couldn't ask as subordinates.

The patriarch over there quickly registered all the personnel, and only the stone plate in their entire village could write everyone's names, and the handwriting was crooked, but they could understand it in the end.

"Shangguan, take a look." The patriarch was very respectful to Shao Yunhua.

"Hmm." Shao Yunhua took it, looked at it carefully, took the pen, and asked, "How many adults are there?" How many children are there? As for the old people here, right? ”

"Why divide the young into the young?" The patriarch was instantly alert.

"Young children naturally have to arrange literacy, supreme kindness, and arrange free teaching for literati, without having to prepare paper and pencil." Shao Yunhua is very proud when he talks about this, which supreme has such virtue and politics throughout the ages?

"This ...... We are all mountain people, and our ancestors have been rooted here for generations, and we don't need to be literate. "What the patriarch said is very sure, but in the end, it is just an old farmer in the ridge, and Shui Dai is a human spirit, and at a glance, he knows that he is insincere.

They didn't really let them pay taxes this time, the supreme benevolence, now basically no taxes are collected, the peasants only have to be forced into labor, the majority of the tax is in the business tax, and the old man is given silver, if their surrender is only like this, in terms of economic benefits, it is a loss of money.

"My ancestors have been here for generations......" Shao Yunhua didn't finish speaking, and a man rushed in and interrupted her words.

is obviously an eight-foot man, but at this time he is already in tears: "Uncle, Yingzi has a difficult birth, you go and take a look." ”

"What?" At this time, the patriarch couldn't take care of Shao Yunhua and Shui Dai, so he went directly into the inner room and rushed out with the medicine box.

Shao Yunhua and Shui Dai are stupid, they are not unhappy to be hung here, but they have a difficult birth? When a woman gives birth to a child, she takes a turn around the ghost gate, how is this dystocia good, and the hands and feet of the two of them are cold in an instant.

After a long time, Shui Dai said in a trembling voice: "Why don't we go and have a look." ”

"Okay." As soon as the two of them took two steps, Shao Yunhua raised his hand to stop: "Wait, don't be busy first, wait for me to think about it." ”

"What do you think?"

"What do you use to have a baby? Especially dystocia? Speaking of the word dystocia, Shao Yunhua's face was ugly.

"I don't know." All the little ladies are dumbfounded, all of them are yellow flower girls, how do you know this? In the past, the aunts and sisters-in-law gave birth, and it was not their turn to come forward, so they were completely blind.

Tian Da looked at Shao Yunhua and them, but still hesitated to speak: "My subordinates remember that ginseng is a great tonic, and it takes a lot of effort for women to give birth, so if you can eat some ginseng, it should help." "Tian Da has seen ginseng, such a good ginseng, how much silver he doesn't dare to think, say it like this, I don't know what the two Shangguan mean, this thing is worth a lot of money after all.

"Yes, yes, ginseng is a great tonic." Shao Yunhua nodded again and again.

Over there, Cui Shan hurriedly went to find medicine.

"Bring some other medicines and see if you can use them."

"Yes."

"You should bring more hemostatic medicine." Another Hong Yi, who didn't say much, added.

"Uh-huh." Cui Shirt nodded repeatedly.

A group of people here were finally ready, and immediately Shao Yunhua led the way out, grabbed a child, and asked who had the baby, and the little doll naturally knew, and pointed with her hand: "Brother Xiong's house over there." ”

Shao Yunhua and they ran again, and before they got close, they found that this small bamboo building was already full of people, silent, full of anxiety, seeing Shao Yunhua and his party, they were quite hostile, the young people were still a little worse, and those who were older were almost already hostile.

Shui Dai was anxious and didn't notice it, but Shao Yunhua was instantly alert, what's going on?

Raising their feet to the small building, an old man finally came out and blocked their way: "You can't go up?" ”

"Why?" Shao Yunhua's hand was slightly fisted, and she had a whip in her waist. You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people.

"Ominous person, don't go in."

"This official is an official of the Great Qin Dynasty, an unknown person?" Shao Yunhua's face instantly darkened.

"You are an ominous person, if it weren't for you to come, how could Yingzi have a difficult birth?" The old man was full of words.

Shao Yunhua found himself speechless.

"So, you've never had a woman have had a difficult birth here?" Shui Dai stepped forward.

The old man choked.

"It can be seen that we didn't come and there were also dystocia, but it was you, who experienced several dystocia, could it be that this is the disaster you bringed." Shui Dai asked rhetorically.

"You, you, you ......" the old man pointed to Shui Dai, so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Get out of the way, we have medicine on us, it might be useful." Shao Yunhua didn't have a good face, and his voice was still steady.

What else did the old man say, he was swept away by Shao Yunhua's eyes, and after all, he was still shocked by his momentum, and left in disgrace.

"Patriarch? What's going on? Shao Yunhua went in and saw the patriarch who was dispensing medicine at a glance.

The patriarch barely cheered up, glanced at Shao Yunhua, and only said, "Don't bother." The attitude and tone of these words are fine, but there is a problem with what they say, and they are too polite.

Shao Yunhua and Shui Dai understood in seconds, it seemed that not only the old man just now thought they were unknown, but this patriarch also thought they were unknown, which was tricky for their next development.
