Huangyan County may be the capital of the whole of Taiwan...... No, it should be the worst county in Zhejiang Province and the southeast, and it is also the first county to fall in the war that has lasted for several years.

As early as the 31st year of Jiajing, thousands of Japanese invaders attacked Taizhou, and Huangyan fell, although the Japanese did not kill on a large scale...... They also know that leeks have to be cut one by one, but a large number of people have become homeless, the population has plummeted, and the fields are barren.

This situation continued unanimously until the 33rd year of Jiajing, before that, because every time the Japanese invaded Taizhou, the target was to attach Guo County to Linhai, and each time they would pass through Huangyan...... Most importantly, they need to conquer the Haimen guards located in the west of Huangyan County first.

Until the 33rd year of Jiajing, Tan Lun organized and trained the new army, twice in Huangyan and Haimen to defeat the enemy, and then Qi Jiguang led the Yiwu soldiers to serve as Ning Shaotai general, defeated the Japanese several times, and successively selected Taozhu and Xinhe in the north and south of Huangyan County to build a town Gongwei, and the Japanese finally let go of the ravaged Huangyan County, and turned to Taiping County in the south, Ninghai and Changguowei in the north, and Huangyan County gradually regained its vitality.

Taizhou is mountainous, the official road is uneven, it is difficult to ride a horse at night, and a careless break of the leg is light, Qian Yuan had to rest in the water station, and interrogated the little official for a long time, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, who instigated his mother to choose to settle in Huangyan...... This choice cannot be made unless you know the inside story.

Of the six counties in Taizhou Prefecture, in addition to Guo Linhai County, only Xianju County is relatively safe, and the remaining four counties are ...... The mother chose Huangyan, who is not in danger for the time being, and the Japanese will not come to attack.

Tossing and turning in the middle of the night, the next day was bright, Qian Yuan set off from the Lingjiang River, turned into the Yongning River and arrived at Huangyan.

At the mouth of an alley on the west side of the city, several women sat in the shade of a tree, chatting while holding the soles of their shoes.

A tall, thin young man approached with an unnatural smile, and the women were alarmed, but soon the laughter spread as the young man spoke in his native dialect.

Qian Yuan, who was in the distance, looked at this scene and said without words: "I remember that Zeng Gong is from Huangyan." ”

"Cangtou Street Zengjia Lane." Wang Yi replied softly: "Zeng Gong settled in Jiangdu at the age of twelve, so he is from Jiangdu on the Jinshi record, but Zeng Gong has always considered himself a native of Huangyan, Taizhou. ”

Qian Yuan nodded, "Then is the Su family from Jiangdu or Huangyan?" ”

Wang Yi was very clear about the inside story of that year, and immediately replied: "Huangyan people. ”

Zeng Milling was convicted that year, and one of the key figures was the fellow businessman Su Gang, the eldest daughter of this person was Xia Yan's stepwife, and later Xia Yan and Zeng Mill were killed, and the two families were exiled to Hanzhong and Guangxi respectively, and Su Gang was also exiled to Shaanxi.

Looking back at Wang Yi, Qian Yuan said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I have already sent someone." ”

When King Yu ascended the throne, Zeng Milling and Xia Yanxue were wronged, if the two families were dead, it would be meaningless, as early as March, Qian Yuan sent people to Guangxi, and later followed the garden scholar Lu Yipeng to elect the Guangxi County Order, and Qian Yuan also entrusted him to take care of it.

The two were still thinking about their own thoughts, and Yang Wen had already returned.

"Young master, that house has changed hands twice this year alone." Yang Wen reported in a low voice: "The deed on the county government is filled in with Zhao Qisan's name. ”

Zhao Qisan is a tenant of the Qian family, the first batch of people to go to Hangzhou with Qian Yuan for the first time, and later has been working as a porter in the food garden, diligent, honest and loyal, and his wife works as a housekeeper in the backyard.

"I heard that there are still two missing arms and legs, which should be the guards who were injured in Huizhou Mansion and Ningguo Mansion." Yang Wen continued: "It has been more than a month since the relocation, and the gate is closed, and there are basically no people in or out except for shopping. ”

Under the willow tree, Qian Yuan reached out and grabbed the hanging willow branch, rubbed it carefully, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go." ”

Just knocked on the door, Zhao Qisan in the porter knelt down with a look of surprise, "Young master, young master is finally here, the villain sent a letter to Beijing......"

There was also a porter who was missing an arm on the side and knelt down on one knee, with a look of shame, "Young master, the old lady insists on moving to Huangyan, and the villain can't stop it, knowing that after the young master goes south, let people stay in Hangzhou Food Garden......"

Qian Yuan carried the horsewhip in one hand, shook it gently, and shouted: "Get up, say it from beginning to end." ”

Zhao Qisan got up tremblingly, thought for a while and said: "I heard that the young master was going to get married, the old lady and the young lady were very happy, and they called Wang Tou to discuss the dowry to Beijing, but they were about to leave......"

The house is not big, two in front and back, and the sound in the gatehouse quickly spread to the backyard.

"What? So fast! Tan's face was panicked, "Yuan'er came so soon, and he didn't say anything in advance...... This, this, what to do? ”

Huang, who was widowed in his twenties when his mother ...... "mother", was even more panicked, "Or ...... I took it out to hide? ”

"Don't panic, don't panic!" The little sister is the calmest, "Just do what I said before, although my brother has a poisonous mouth, but he has a good heart, who in Hangzhou City does not say that his brother is a good person, and the thunderbolt means show the Bodhisattva's heart......"

To the surprise of the younger sister, the mother and sister-in-law panicked even more.

A familiar and long-lost voice sounded in the ears of the little sister, "The thunderbolt method shows the bodhisattva's heart, this is a good thing, but where did you hear that your brother and I have a poisonous mouth?" ”

The little sister turned her head to look at Qian Yuan sluggishly, and she couldn't speak in a panic, her appearance was not much stronger than the two who cheered her up.

Qian Yuan touched the little sister's bun, smiled gently, stepped forward a few steps across the threshold, lifted the hem of the robe and knelt on the ground, "The unfilial son greets his mother." ”

"Yuan'er, Yuan'er, get up, get up." Tan's eyes dodged, and he only cared about pulling Qian Yuan up, "I don't even have a futon." ”

Qian Yuan smiled and got up to help Tan sit down, "Mother has no time to enter Beijing, and my son is worried that his mother is unwell, so he hurriedly goes south, and now he is relieved." ”

It didn't seem to notice some stiff atmosphere in the house, the panicked expressions of the three women, Qian Yuan only told his mother in detail about the grand scene of more than ten new science and technology scholars marrying Xiao Qi that day, the layout and furnishings of the Suiyuan Garden in Beijing, and the earnest care of his uncle and aunt......

The Tan family is a person who has no city in his heart, but after these things, the little sister and the Huang family have grown a lot, and they can only smile bitterly when they look at each other.

Since Qian Yuan went to Hangzhou alone more than three years ago, and then became famous in several wars, he moved to Hangzhou and Huizhou one after another, and his prestige has become increasingly serious.

Qian Yuan didn't ask the Tan family from beginning to end, why he said that he would enter Beijing before the test but regretted it, why he was ready to marry after the palace test but did not go to Beijing temporarily, and he didn't even talk about the dog-skin plaster clansmen in the food garden, and he didn't ask why he moved to Taizhou, and chose to settle in Huangyan.

At this time, a cry suddenly sounded in the outer courtyard, and the Tan family was excited, and he heard that it was the voice of the porter Zhao Qisan.

"It's nothing, this guy is not well guarded, and only a few sticks are already light." Qian Yuan said with a smile: "If the mother, the younger sister and the eldest sister-in-law are lost, or if they are in wartime, they will be beheaded." ”

The room was quiet, and out of the corner of Qian Yuan's eyes, he caught a glimpse of his sister-in-law Huang's hands clasped tightly, looking very nervous.

The Huang family married into the Qian family in the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, gave birth to a daughter but unfortunately died young, and then had nothing to do, but he was very affectionate with his eldest brother and refused to remarry.

Although Qian Yuan has never had a girlfriend since he went to the sea in his previous life, he is not without a woman, and after glancing at it casually, he couldn't help but take a closer look, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, this posture, this complexion...... It's not like a widow.

At this moment, a loud "wow wow wow" baby cry sounded in the next room, Huang jumped up and ran violently, Tan and Xiaomei followed but suddenly stopped and looked back.

Qian Yuan's expression was as usual, and he didn't seem to hear anything. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
