Chapter 25: There is hope
Qingquan has been added!
…………………………
It is not without people who have gone missing in the war, some have fled from the battle, and some have died somewhere. However, there are very few people who flee, and it is a great crime to cut off the head. It is impossible for such a promising person as Qian Manjiang to escape, and the greatest possibility is to die.
For the families of those who participated in the fighting, the disappearance of their families is the most devastating. If a person dies, he will receive a pension of ten taels of silver, if he is disabled, he will also have a settlement fee of eight taels of silver, and if he returns, he will receive a severance pay of five taels of silver. There are only missing people, neither money nor people, not even a statement.
This time, not only Qian Sangui fell, but even Wu fell on the bed. She gritted her teeth and persevered for so many years, and the "news of her son's death" suddenly pressed her across. Once again, the family was in a desperate situation.
I heard that my beloved grandson was missing, but in fact, he died, but the body was not found, and Mrs. Qian also fell ill.
Qian Dagui's family stood up at this time, helped to invite the doctor to see a doctor, beckoned Qian Ergui's father and son to do the farm work in the third room together, and asked Xu to cook for a few days.
Qian Xiang also brought some meat to relieve Wu, and bought a few pieces of ginseng for Qian Sangui to replenish his body.
The good people in the countryside are still in the majority, and many families come to visit their families, some take two eggs, some carry a pound of white noodles, and two poor families even bring a basket of vegetables.
Qian Yixiu in the corner was also very sad when he heard that the little father was this kind of result. How will this family live? However, she was also more moved. In the past few days, except for some discordant voices from Tang, other relatives are still more loving. It's not like some of the best relatives in the time-traveling novels, who want to bully the sick to death as soon as possible, and then take other people's property and sell other people's babies.
But other people's families have problems, especially now that the autumn harvest is imminent. Five days later, the family was at peace again.
Cheng Yue, who had been hiding in the house, also got out of her hut, she didn't know that others had begun to call her Widow Cheng behind her back, and some unkind people still called her Silly Widow. In those days, occasionally someone saw her true face, and the words of the silly widow who looked like a fairy came out again.
She is the only one in this family who doesn't believe that Qian Manjiang is dead, and she stubbornly thinks that her brother Jiang will not lie to her and will return to this home after a few flowers. She timidly went to the courtyard gate again, and looked through the closed door at the wildflowers blooming outside.
It was the end of August, and although some of the wild grass had turned yellow, the season of blooming flowers had passed. But there are still a few wildflowers that are blooming brightly, and they are even more proud. Through Cheng Yue's observation over the years, she knew that when the grass was yellow, the flowers were almost gone. When the flowers bloom again next year, it will be closer to the day when Brother Jiang will go home.
Eleven-year-old Qian Manxia is now a full-time laborer in the family, and she took the two younger ones to the kitchen to cook. After the meal was cooked, the three of them brought the meal to the bedside of Qian Sangui and Wu to serve the couple to eat.
Qian Manxia said with tears in her eyes, "Dad, mother, we still have Jinwa, and our family still has hope." ”
Qian Yijin hurriedly said, "Grandpa, grandma, I will eat one less bite at home in the future, and I will give you one bite to eat." When I grow up and become a top official, let you enjoy the blessings, please go to the restaurant. ”
Qian Yixiu rarely took the initiative to speak, and also whispered today, "There is also Xiu'er, Xiu'er can also work, just burned the fire, and fed the chickens yesterday." After speaking, he wiped his tears and made his little face even more flowery.
Cheng Yue came in at some point and said, "There is also Yue'er, Yue'er doesn't eat rice, she can do needlework and sell money to buy food to eat." ”
Wu looked at the four people in front of the bed, one stupid and three small, and turned his head sideways to look at Qian Sangui, who had less air in and more air out, and cried all of a sudden. If they die, what should they do?
A few days ago, everyone persuaded her with these words, so that she had to hold on for the sake of her husband and grandson. But she didn't listen, she just thought that she had no hope, and she would just die.
But now that she sees these children so caring, she feels that she can't give up on them.
She stretched out her arm and hugged Qian Yijin and Qian Yixiu and cried, and after crying, she sat up to eat. The rice is gnocchi soup with an egg lying in it. Wu did not give in, not only ate all the pimple soup, but also ate the eggs into his stomach. When she got up and served her husband for dinner, she got up again.
Now Qian Sangui's body is weak, Qian Yixiu didn't dare to enter the house, but floated in the hall and looked at the family through the door. Wu may have listened to the speeches of the first three people, but he did not listen to the words of the little mother. In fact, the most constructive speech of these people is Cheng Yue's words.
Why is the Wu family reluctant to take some money out to buy some embroidery money and good materials, and let Cheng Yue try to do some embroidery work and sell it? Even Wu admitted that Cheng Yue's needlework was very good, and she must have learned it at home. It's just that sometimes because I can't control my hand or brain well, there are times when I make mistakes.
Perhaps at first she would waste some materials and money, but when she got acquainted with it, even if she did not necessarily make the most delicate embroidery, it would certainly be much better than that of a country woman, and she would be able to sell it for some money to make money for the family.
Qian Yixiu thought that after she wore it in the future, she would tap the potential of the little lady.
Wu cheered up, and the home began to function normally.
It's just that this year, the family's expenses are even greater. Qian Sangui was hit harder, and his body suffered even more, and he took a lot of good medicine to not lose his life. Qian Yixiu, a TCM doctor, didn't understand the professional terminology of the doctor, and guessed that his illness was mainly due to injuries and injuries, severe malnutrition, and heart disease. This disease is a disease of wealth, you must eat well, rest well, be in a good mood, not be hungry, not tired, and not angry. Even in a previous life, this disease was not easy to raise.
It stands to reason that this family can't do these things at all if they want to ensure this, but Qian Sangui still survived. Relying on the limited ginseng tonic alone will definitely not be able to hang on for so many years. The reason for this is either that his original physical foundation is too good, or that he should not die, or that the bull head and horse face just don't come to patronize him.
Qian Yixiu also has a guess, that is, the water that the Qian family eats in the third room is different from the water in the village, and the water quality seems to be much better.
Because of the abundant water resources here, except for the extremely rich people who dig wells in the yards, the villagers in this area all eat spring water. To the east behind the village, there is a deep pool at the foot of Xijing Mountain, known as Butterfly Spring, where the villagers carry water.
The Butterfly Spring was a little far away from the third room of the Qian family, so they went to the Songtan in the west behind their yard to fetch water.
Songtan is at the foot of Shixi Mountain, and there is a huge thousand-year-old pine next to it, which people call Songtan. The diameter of the pine pond is about five meters, the depth is unfathomable, the periphery is surrounded by a circle of small rocks, the side of the mountain recess into the foot of the mountain, the overflowing spring water flows into the ravine at the foot of the mountain, and merges with several other springs, forming a shoal that flows through the wasteland and flows into the Honghe River.
The ancient pine branches next to Songtan are luxuriant, and it is not only the only tree that grows well under Xishi Mountain, but even the big trees of Xijing Mountain are rarely comparable to it.
This surprised many people, and the reason is, of course, only Qian Yixiu knows. Although there are many springs flowing down from Xishi Mountain, only the spring water in Songtan flows down from the direction of Shixi Mountain. Although the current is small, it flows day and night, and there is no shortage of water in the pool.
This kind of speculation is not only for Qian Sangui, but also for other people in the Qian family. The countrymen come and go in the wind and rain, and the sun is sunny, and the skin will definitely not be good. But the people in the third room of the Qian family are not as white and delicate as the people in the city, but they are much better than other people in the village. Even if the malnutrition is a bit fan, it is definitely not dark, including the little daddy who has disappeared.
