Chapter Seventy-Four: Imperity

Yuan Zheng's back was straight, sitting on the stool upright, his whole body felt stiff, and it was obviously more suitable for him to visit the patient.

"Tea, sir." Qingbo said.

"I'm not an adult," Yuan Zheng subconsciously retorted, only to find that this answer was too blunt, so he said, "Just call me Yuan Guard." ”

"Yuan Guard." Qing Bo was as kind as a stream, looked at the gifts on the table, and said, "Thank you Young Master Xu for remembering my young lady's injury, it was an accident, and I don't blame you." I also hope that the Yuan guards will bring our thanks to Young Master Xu, and say that we thank Young Master Xu for saving his life. ”

Yuan Zheng listened to this very ironing, when catching the thief, everyone had scruples, the refugees would make mistakes, if the people of the Jiang family did not forgive this matter and even relied on his master because of this, then he would definitely report the matter. But now that he hasn't said anything cruel, the Jiang family has revealed the matter knowingly, and even characterized it as his master's righteous escort to the eldest lady of the Jiang family to the city to see a doctor, saving her life, then things are completely different.

Sending Yuan Zheng out of the door with a thousand thanks, watching them and their group ride away, Qing Bo wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, talking to these nobles is exhausting, especially this Yuan Zheng guard is obviously not good at dealing with people.

Sister Lotus accepted the teacup, saw Qingbo come in and asked, "People sent away?" The young lady also asked what the man was here for? ”

Qing Bo looked at the several gift boxes on the table, smiled bitterly, and said, "Miss, I'll go and talk back, you go and give your Aunt Rong a hand, and I guess I will entertain guests at night." ”

That night, there were thieves in the village, and Jiang Tiezhu also called the young men in the village to come and help. Everyone knows a little bit about it. The next morning, because of Jiang Quino's injury, it was completely spread in the village, and everyone was very concerned about Jiang Quinoa's injury, and the village chief and patriarch even went to the city to visit Jiang Quinoa. Knowing that she was fine, but she still needed to recuperate, no one came to visit her to disturb her.

It was also after Jiang Quinoa returned from the city that the uncles and aunts in the village came to visit the patients. The family is poor now, and they can't get anything good, but with this heart, it's not a shame that Jiang Quinoa saved them by taking out the food in the first place.

In the past few days, the young and strong people in the village have been busy planting seeds in their fields. They are looking for work everywhere to earn some money to support their families. Qingbo decided to hold two tables tonight and invite people from the village and clan to come over for a meal. It's kind of a thank you to them for coming to visit Jiang Quinoa. The dishes have been prepared, and Aunt Rong and they have been busy since the morning.

Lotus went to the kitchen and said that the Xu family had just arrived, and Aunt Rong was also surprised.

"This Young Master Xu. Young. It is safe and polite to do things. Aunt Rong was very emotional: "When we were in the city, Young Master Xu asked me to come to visit him once, saying that he would return to Beijing the next day. Who knows what delayed today, and this time he was going to leave, and he even came to inform him, this person, I really didn't say anything. ”

Lotus was not impressed by Xu Yaoxuan, but listening to Aunt Rong and Uncle Qing praising this person, it should be good.

Here, the quinoa is basking in the sun under the porch. Hearing that Xu Yaoxuan was leaving, he thought for a while and asked, "Uncle Qing." You said they were leaving, should we send them off? ”

Qing Bo also felt that it should be sent: "Although we don't want to get together, but people know the gift like this, it is a visit to the sick and a gift, that night is also the city where Young Master Xu sent Miss, if they don't ride horses, there is no identity like Young Master Xu, we can't get in even if we rush to the city gate, if we delay Miss to see a doctor, then ......" Qing Bo said a little choked, he has nightmares every night these days, and when he thinks that he has no ability to delay Miss to see a doctor, he will be to blame for his death.

Every time I mentioned the events of that night in the past few days, Aunt Rong, Qingbo, and Jiang Chun all looked guilty and worried, no matter how relieved they were, Jiang Quinoa was also a little helpless.

At that time, Aunt Rong had her back to the man, Jiang Chun was already frightened and didn't know how to dodge, if she didn't push Aunt Rong in front of Jiang Chun, they would both be injured. Now she hurt one of her, and saved Aunt Rong and Jiang Chun, speaking of which, she still earned it.

"By the way, Miss, this is the jade cream sent by Young Master Xu, it is said that there will be no scars after wiping it, Miss remembers to wipe it every day." Qing Bo left the things, told Jiang Quinoa, and then told Jiang Chun, and got Jiang Chun's nod and promised that he would use it for Jiang Quinoa every day, so he went to the front yard.

The room where Jiang Quinoa lived before was completely destroyed by the fight, and there were dead people inside, and the little girl would be afraid if she lived in it, so Qingbo cleaned up the east wing room again for Jiang Quinoa to live in, as for her previous room, she was thinking about whether it was demolished and rebuilt, or directly destroyed.

Jiang Quinoa took the jade face ointment, thinking that such a medicine should be very valuable.

"It smells good, you smell it." The taste of Yurong paste is light and light, with a little fragrance but I can't ask if I don't smell it carefully, but after smelling it, I feel that the smell has been lingering on the tip of my nose, which is a very peculiar fragrance.

Jiang Chun took it and smelled it, and he also thought it smelled good, snorted and asked several times, and said: "Before, my cousin said that some men in the city still apply grease and powder, I don't believe it yet, but now I think about it, it should be true." I just can't understand what these big men are smearing more fragrant than women all day long, what are they thinking in their heads. ”

Thinking of a man with rouge on his face and incense powder on his body, twisting his buttocks and coming over, Jiang Chun shuddered, almost threw away the jade cream in his hand, shook his hand a few times and stuffed the jade cream into Jiang Qu's arms, she stumbled up and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to serve medicine to Miss." ”

Jiang Quinoa looked at her blankly, how could she smell the fragrance of Yurong paste and say that the man applied grease and powder. When Jiang Chun's retching sound came from outside, she thought about it and understood what Jiang Chun meant.

Although he is not familiar with Young Master Xu, every time he sees him, he looks like he has a straight face and does not smile, not like Jiang Chun said that he is a person who can apply grease and powder.

"But this man is quite careful." Jiang Quinoa took the jade cream and said, the careless old man can't imagine that the little girls are unwilling to leave scars on their bodies.

In the next day, Qingbo took Jiang Tiezhu to buy some things in the city and sent them to Xu Yaoxuan's temporary residence.

"There are some things at home in the past two days, and I can't come to see off Young Master Xu tomorrow. I hope that Young Master Xu is not strange. Qingbo said.

Xu Yaoxuan was also surprised by Qingbo's arrival, but his face was not obvious: "It's good that you guys are busy." We left early, so I told you. After thinking about it, he said: "Kochi County and the county have been put in prison. The prefect will personally try their cases of embezzlement. Lord Feng is still here, if you have any difficulties, you can also go to Lord Feng. ”

may have been misunderstood, Qing Bo heard the meaning of his words, although he also meant well, but he thought that he was worried that Xu Yaoxuan would have no one to take care of after they left, so he told himself that he could go to Lord Feng. Although there is nothing to help such a big man, Qingbo still thanks him for taking care of him.

Out of the gate. Qing Bo let out a long sigh, fortunately, such a character will not deal with in the future.

Last time, I almost caused a catastrophe when I sent a trip, but this time the hospitality is much easier. Two tables were purchased, and all the people in the village were respected. Of course, the seventh uncle is not among them.

After three rounds of drinking, the people at the table also let go, and they began to talk about what they had seen and heard in the past few days.

The imperial court remeasured the land. According to the records of the yamen, the records were distributed to those who returned to their hometowns. But many people died of starvation during the disaster, and their fields became ownerless. When the court came in, many wealthy squires began to buy land at low prices, and recruited people everywhere to farm. Jiangli Village has the most surviving people, and the fields are the most intact, so many people are hired to help with farming after planting their own land, and they will also meet people from other villages when they eat and sleep.

"We were plowing the ground that day. Suddenly it rained, and there wasn't even a grass hut in that area. We went under a big tree for a while. One of the helpers felt that there were too many insects on the tree, and when he looked up, he almost scared his soul away. There was a head on the branch, crawling with insects, unrecognizable, and very disgusting. ”

"We thought it was someone who did evil, and we were thinking about going to report to the official, but we were stopped. The man said that it was supposed to be left behind by someone who had eaten during a time of drought. I have only heard of those things that destroy humanity, but I did not expect to see them with my own eyes one day. ”

"We are blessed by the Bodhisattva, with the eldest lady to protect us and give us food, so that we don't have to be upset, we don't have to be separated, we don't have to have a broken family, we don't have to go through such a difficult choice." The man began to cry as he spoke.

The helper said that they had done all kinds of inhuman things in order to survive. They fled to a farm, and the owner of the farm, who saw that they were pitiful, took them in for the night, and cooked them vegetable soup to eat. But because these people didn't want to live a precarious life of exile, they saw that there was a lot of food on Zhuangzi, so they moved their minds and their group to touch the room where Zhuangzi lived at night, killed him, and raped the owner's wife, even the owner's three-year-old son did not escape the doom, and was finally cooked.

There were many such things, and the helper burst into tears as he spoke, and said to him, "You don't know how lucky you are. How noble it was for Miss Jiang to take out the food at the beginning. ”

When the people at the table heard this, they all put down their chopsticks.

In the past, they all stayed in the village and had no contact with the outside, so they didn't have such a painful experience, they just felt that it was easy for Jiang Quinoa to take out the food, she was the Jiang family, so she should do this, but she didn't expect that no one should not, at that time she took it out of love, and it was her duty not to take it. She doesn't owe them anything.

This time I went out to find a job to do, and when people heard that they were from Jiangli Village, they were paid higher than others, and it was not clear why at first, but once the steward said: "The people of Jiangli Village, if nothing else, are at least better than others in terms of down-to-earth duty." What's more, Miss Jiang has a bodhisattva heart and has saved so many people, although it is not clear why the court did not give a reward, but we still remember her righteous deeds. ”

"It's all stained with the light of the eldest lady." The man said.

Qing Bo didn't know that there was such a thing, he was very proud in his heart, and said after taking the wine bowl: "Come, let's drink." ”

Qingbo was drunk like mud that night, Aunt Rong didn't say anything about him, and went crazy with him.

Xingni told Jiang Quinoa and them what she said on the wine table in the front yard, and the two of them sighed. They were really ignorant and fearless at that time, so much food was shown in front of everyone like that, and they could be safe and sound, and they were really stupid and stupid.

"It's not just fools who are stupid. Brother Liangzi heard someone talk about the idea of beating the eldest lady at that time two days ago, oh, yes, it was the bad guy caught that night, I heard that they had already absorbed a lot of refugees to participate in the uprising, and they also burned and looted some towns and towns with supplies, and there was a lot of climate. But suddenly, the eldest lady donated food, and also mobilized the rich families in the city to donate money and food, isn't our side stable? This spread to other counties, and those counties began to do the same, so that the refugees had something to eat and could live, and of course they did not participate in any uprisings. ”

"Those thieves hated the eldest lady very much, and later planned to come to trouble the eldest lady, but the eldest lady had been living at the gate of the city during that time, with refugees and people from the government. The refugees are very respectful to the eldest lady, and they can't please them when they come. The bastard in Kochi County ordered the city gate to be closed, and when the eldest lady returned to the village, the official sent by the imperial court to clean up the anti-thieves also arrived, and those people were chased like lost dogs, so naturally they didn't have the strength to trouble the eldest lady. Saying this, Xingni sighed.

Jiang Quinoa thought about this before and after, and added Xingni's words, what else didn't she understand.

Those thieves didn't have the strength to trouble her, who knew that they came in and ran into her house by mistake on the way to escape, and also kidnapped her. If it weren't for the banquet held in the village that night, the whole village would have been filled with the smell of meat, and those people were so hungry that they would have given her time to wait for the pursuers.

In the end, although she was wounded, the people were also arrested.

I don't know if she's lucky or unlucky.

"Brother Liangzi said that the eldest lady can't die this time, and she will definitely be rich and rich in the future." Xingni comforted.

Jiang Chun frowned when he heard this: "Why can't you die this time, and you can die next time?" couldn't say anything, the young lady said that he should follow Mr. Liao to read and write, and he learned like this. ”

Xingni blushed, apologized again and again, and defended Zhao Liang in her mouth: "What Brother Liangzi said is very good, but I didn't study well." The voice was a little muffled.

Jiang Quinoa listened to their words and smiled bitterly: "I think what Zhao Liang said should be that if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future." ”

"Yes, yes, that's it." Xingni smiled and nodded again and again.

"Yes, yes, I can't learn a word, you come here from tomorrow, I will teach you to read and write, and after the province is saved, go out and say that I am friends with Jiang Chun, and I will lose face." Jiang Chun said with a straight face.

Xingni grimaced.

Jiang Quinoa smiled and patted Jiang Chun: "You didn't react just now, and you even said Xingni." You'll start writing five big characters a day. This time it was Jiang Chun's turn to be dumbfounded.

Three little girls, you look at me, I see you laugh crookedly at the end.

It's good that they can't die, and they can laugh and cry like this, be so sad and troubled. (To be continued......)
