Chapter 45: What I Ask for (For Song Junshan's Immortal Relationship)
Shao Mingqing rode a horse and turned around the bend of the mountain, and there was a river in front of him, and his vision suddenly opened up.
This Yushan is really big, I don't know there is such a place.
The sound of horses' hooves came, Shao Mingqing looked over, and saw Xie Roujia riding on the little red horse to meet him, followed closely by An Geyu.
"Yes, yes." He laughed and raised his whip.
Xie Roujia pulled the reins, and the little red horse turned around and went back, avoiding the whip thrown by Shao Mingqing.
Shao Mingqing laughed and followed with a clip on the horse's belly.
Jiangling Shuiying by the river was grilling fish, and when she saw Shao Mingqing coming, Shuiying hurriedly stepped forward with a grilled fish.
Xie Roujia got off the horse, followed Shao Mingqing's example and threw the reins, and the horse went to the river to drink water by himself.
"Brother An, you taught well." Shao Mingqing smiled and threw the fish in his hand over.
Brother An subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it, looking at the fish a little restrained.
"Eat." Xie Roujia said with a smile, she also took two fish, and sat down by the river.
Brother An lowered his head and took a few steps back to eat the fish slowly.
"The fifth uncle of the horse taming master has already arranged it, do you still want it?" Shao Mingqing asked.
"Don't do it, more is better than less, I've learned almost, just practice more." Xie Roujia handed him a fish in her hand, and said vaguely while eating, "But you can find Brother An another horse, so that I can practice running faster." ”
"A horse is more expensive than a master trainer." Shao Mingqing said with a smile.
Xie Roujia's heart moved when she heard this, and she turned her head to look at him.
"The mine is short of money right now?" "Is it because the mine has stopped, and they won't pay for it?" she asked. ”
"It's fine for the time being." Shao Mingqing said, "After all, the old lady is still here, as usual, and it's better than before." ”
Xie Roujia took a bite of the fish and didn't speak.
"But later." Shao Mingqing continued.
"It's going to be good in the future." Xie Roujia said.
"Relying on one person will not always be fine." Shao Mingqing said, looking at the river in front of him, "The most important thing is that the mine is good, otherwise, living this good life will be more difficult in the future." ”
"The mine is also very good." Xie Roujia said as she chewed on the fish.
Shao Mingqing smiled and raised his hand to knock her on the head.
"You know what a mine is good and what is bad!" He said.
"The mountains are good, and the mines are good." Xie Roujia dodged and said
Shao Mingqing finished eating the fish and threw out the branch in his hand.
"The mountains are very good, but there is no good sand." "It's useless to say anything." ”
Xie Roujia smiled.
"You're really here to mine in Yushan." She laughed.
"Of course, I will rely on this mine in the future, and even if I am driven out in the future, I will have to keep an old book..."Shao Mingqing said with a smile, and coughed when he said this, "... The cost is very important, and if you dig a good mine, you will be glorious in the future when you go out to meet people, and you will have the opportunity to find another job. ”
Xie Roujia sighed, slowly ate the fish, and did not speak.
Shao Mingqing stood up and whistled, and the green horse treading water by the river immediately came over, and the little red horse also followed.
"I'm leaving, Brother An, you send them back and leave, not every time you startle the horse, you have good luck." He said.
Watching Shao Mingqing leave, Xie Roujia and Shui Ying picked up the good fish basket from the water and walked home.
Brother An followed all the time.
"Do horses really need to be bolted?" Shui Ying asked, watching Brother An let go of the horse, "What should I do if I run away?" ”
"No, the horse is very smart, it doesn't run around in the mountains." An Ge Yu said.
Shui Ying picked up some forage, and sure enough, the little red horse came over and ate it by himself, and did not run away.
Brother An said goodbye and turned around.
"Brother An." Xie Roujia called out to him and beckoned at him.
Brother An hesitated and walked over.
"You are in the mine, you see a lot of people, and it is convenient to speak, you can help me inquire about how Shao Mingqing stayed in the mine, and whether he has anything to do with his family." Xie Roujia said in a low voice.
Brother An nodded in response and didn't say much, just as he was about to leave, Xie Roujia called him again and handed him the two fish.
"Although your father's illness has been cured, it is always right to eat more good food." She said with a smile.
Brother An lowered his head, hesitated, took the fish, and hurriedly turned around and walked away.
He kept his head down for a long time, and he could no longer hear the girls' laughter before he stopped, and when he looked back, he saw that the little cabin was long gone.
Brother An quietly exhaled, looked at the fish in his hand, grinned, and seemed to be afraid of being discovered, he hurriedly stopped laughing, continued to walk with a straight face, walked faster and faster, and finally simply ran up, and went away three times and twice on the mountain road under the sunset.
Although it was still early, the miners were already eating in the area.
In the past, the miners had not yet left work, and their food was provided uniformly in the mine, while the wives and children at home had to rely on their wages to buy food and drink from the overseers and handymen.
In this way, whether it is eaten in the mine or bought from the overseers, it is all deducted, and now the mine has not started, Mrs. Xie asked the mine to send the miners' quota of food here, and let the miners receive it and make it themselves, and all they get is sufficient and good food.
Able to eat and drink enough, the always lifeless settlement has become vibrant, and Ange Yu walked all the way, almost being hit by the laughing children.
In the past, the children who did not have enough to eat stopped laughing and laughing, and they were too lazy to walk, either sitting or lying down.
An Ge Yu's face couldn't help but smile, he walked briskly to his family's grass hut, not only was there no food on the fire, but the fire was extinguished.
Brother An was startled and shouted Dad rushed into the grass hut and saw Lao Haimu sitting with a heavy expression.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Brother An hurriedly asked.
Old Haimu seemed to have just come back to his senses.
"You're back." He said, "I'm fine, I'm fine. ”
Brother An looked worried.
"This is from Miss Roujia?" Lao Haimu looked at the fish in his hand and asked with a smile.
An Ge Yu nodded.
"It's so good, I can still give you fish, who used to treat us as human beings." Old Haimu said with a smile.
Brother An hummed.
From time to time, there was the laughter of children outside the grass hut, and Lao Haimu looked out of the door and smiled, but his eyes were full of worry.
"Dad, what's wrong?" An Ge Yu asked.
Old Haimu was silent for a moment.
"I remembered something before and after." "In the past, Mt. Yushan was particularly prosperous. ”
An Ge Yu nodded.
The Yushan Mine is the source of the Xie family's beginning, although it was a hundred years ago, but Angeyu can imagine the prosperity of the past.
"I've already hurt my vitality once, if I hurt it again." Old Haimu sighed and looked at the children laughing outside, "There will really be nothing in the future." ”
Ange was silent.
"But we're just miners." He said suddenly.
You can't do anything else except mining, and even mining is just digging if you want to dig and you can't dig if you don't dig it.
"That's what I used to think." Old Haimu said, "But now I don't think so when I see you." ”
I?
Brother An looked at Lao Haimu puzzled.
"Seeing that you've achieved your claim, I want to try it too." Old Haimu said, "It seems that Lord Da Dan is a person who can listen to others, and in her eyes, we seem to be human beings. ”
Brother An hummed and stood up.
"I'll go with you." He said.
When the father and son left the mine and came to Mrs. Xie's house, it was already dark, and they were startled when they saw their guards.
"You go back first." Lao Haimu said to Brother An.
Brother An hummed and watched Lao Haimu walk in, he didn't turn to leave, but approached a guard.
"Big brother." He said.
The escort accompanied the old lady up the mountain, and he was familiar with Brother An several times, and he was a return gift if he looked at him.
"When I came over, I saw that Young Master Shao Biao was feeding the horses by himself, why didn't he have a little servant to serve?" An Ge Yu said.
He's going to wait here for his father, so let's go?
The guard smiled inwardly.
"You don't know this, do you?" He replied, "Let me tell you, Young Master Shao Biao also fell out with his family. ”
…………………………………………………
Old lady Xie walked out of the house with a reluctant face.
"I've been told to have a bad temper all day long, I don't think she's ever been such a good-tempered Dan master, if she is another Dan master, where will she pay attention to a miner, if there is something to do, what can happen!" He muttered.
He muttered and walked away, and the old lady Xie looked at the old Haimu who knelt down and kowtowed.
"What's the matter?" She asked.
Old Haimu kowtowed.
"Lord Great Dan, if you ask me during the day, I want to answer." He said.
What did the day ask him?
Old Madam Xie was stunned.
"Do you say that you should dig up all the scriptures first, or wait for the mountain god to familiarize yourself with me first?" Old Haimu said.
Old Madam Xie suddenly smiled a little.
Is this miner serious? Not kidding? Was she asking him? To put it bluntly, it's just talking to yourself.
"Okay." She said with some nonchalance, "Since you want to answer, let's say it." ”
"I hope Lord Great Dan will wait a little longer." Old Haimu leaned over and kowtowed.
Old Madam Xie looked at him.
"You want?" She said with a smirk, "You tell me what you want me to do?" ”
There was once someone older than her to say such things to her, and she poured tea on her face, where did a little miner get the confidence to say this to her?
Could it really be that she was too indulgent of these miners, as they said in private?
"Yes." Lao Haimu raised his head, looked at Old Madam Xie with a firm expression, and raised his hand high, "Lord Dadan, you are our Lord Dadan, you are guarding us off disasters and driving disasters, you pray for peace and success for us, you are our hope." ”
He said that he would bow to the ground and bow down.
Old Madam Xie's face became solemn, and she looked at the old miners who bowed on the ground in a bit of a daze.
Lao Haimu raised his hand again and bowed reverently.
"I hope that Lord Great Dan will protect us and we will continue to mine."
If the mountain is excavated for the scriptures, the mine must be stopped.
"I hope that Lord Dan will bless us with food and clothing."
If the scriptures are excavated, there is a possibility that there will be an accident more than 100 years ago, which not only buried the life of Lord Ru Dadan, but also buried the prosperity of Yushan Mine.
"I hope that Lord Great Dan will bless us with safety and well."
After that excavation, the mines of Yushan suffered greatly, and as many as 100 miners were either expelled to dig new mines, killed or injured in the difficult digging of new mines, or were sold to salt works or became coolies, and their wives were scattered.
Old Madam Xie looked at Lao Haimu, who was kneeling on the ground.
Yes, of course he can say hope.
Because he is a miner, because she is the Lord of the Great Dan.
She is the shrine of the miners, and she is worshiped by them and listens to their requests.
"Haimu." Her voice was a little hoarse, "But Yushan has become a waste mine, even if I wait, the hope you prayed for, it will not bring you it." ”
Lao Haimu knelt a few steps forward and kowtowed again.
"Lord Dan, you are here now, you will definitely be able to make Yushan prosperous again, Lord Dadan, you will definitely be able to nourish the sand of Yushan Mine."
Me? Can I?
Old Madam Xie smiled, her smile was a little complicated, and she stretched out her hand when she looked at the old Haimu who was kneeling on the ground in front of her.
"The heavens are above, the earth is below, you ask for it, I send it, you tell it, I reach it." She said slowly.
Lao Haimu raised his head excitedly, raised his hands again, and leaned over to the ground.
"Have mercy on me, I have fulfilled my wish."
……………………………………………………………
There was a cacophony of chaos, stirring in the long-quiet overseer station.
"Want to open a mine? Why is it suddenly going to open? ”
"I thought it would only open after the New Year, why did it reopen now?"
"The winter festival is coming, so I can't explain it to my ancestors."
"What's the excavation, it's not some rice sand, don't dig it up again, and you won't have the face to see your ancestors."
At this time, there were only a dozen or so overseers left, chatting and running in a hurry.
Shao Mingqing was also among them, and just as he was about to get on the horse, he saw someone running through the chaotic people.
"Young Master!" Shui Ying shouted happily and stood in front of him.
"What's wrong?" Shao Mingqing let go of the reins, "What's wrong with her?" What's the matter? ”
Shui Ying shook her head.
"She didn't do much, young master, Miss Roujia doesn't want me anymore." She said happily.
Miss Roujia doesn't want her anymore?
Shao Mingqing was stunned for a moment, and his eyes fell on the small burden that Shui Ying was holding.
What is this stinky girl doing?
Xie Roujia, who was squatting on the rocks and watching the regrouped team and the sound of the trumpet, sneezed heavily, and the withered grass in his mouth fell, drifting towards the valley.
"Isn't it just digging good sand, such a big mine, I don't believe it can't be dug."
She said and stood up, raising her hand and the trumpet coming from down the mountain, and the shrill female voice echoed through the valley.
