Chapter 258: Responsibility
If the words are unfavorable to the Hu people, I don't know if they will do anything to aggravate the situation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As for protecting Xia Hanxue, it is secondary.
In the folk customs of Beihu, unmarried men and women living in the same room is as common as eating and drinking, and it does not have many of the elaborations of the Central Plains. As the saying goes, follow the customs of the locals, and Xia Hanxue has nothing to blame for showing up and staying with the men.
Besides, the door of the yurt is wide open, and everyone who walks by or stands in front of the door can see the situation inside, and the Beihu people can naturally do it. There is an endless stream of Hu people who come to see the excitement and inquire, and almost no one sets up a stall in front of the door to sell peanuts and melon seeds mineral water! Since countless pairs of eyes have witnessed that there is nothing unsightly here, who are you afraid of chewing the root of your tongue?
Didn't you Beihu people ignore us? Then we can do whatever we want! You princesses of the Hu people can dance to a group of bearded men at a banquet, why can't our county lord open the door and write a letter or help someone openly?
In the yurt, the atmosphere is still hot.
A stupid black soldier grinned in front of Xiao Jing and said, "President Xiao, I haven't read a book, so I speak a little rougher, just look at it and write it." ”
Xiao Jing, who was slightly tired, nodded and said, "Understood, you can say it." ”
"I have a good friend in my hometown, named Xiaocui......"
As soon as he said a word, several people behind him burst into laughter, and some people called his name in a woman's tone, which made him extremely embarrassed.
"And then?"
Xiao Jing made a silent gesture to the people in the back of the line, and asked patiently.
The man scratched his head and said, "The soldiers in the Beijing camp are not as good as the recruits, and they don't know when they will have a family. This dynasty has not treated us harshly, and our family members can accompany the battalion, but a soldier has a few dollars, and that little food is not enough for his own expenses...... cough, I finally saved some silver, and I want to wait for the beginning of spring next year to become a relative to take Xiaocui over, but ......"
Xiao Jing was silent.
The Beijing camp is a standing army, so the family members will be placed near the garrison in imitation of the border army. This man is about to start a family, but he was selected into the list of 100 people, and he is not a speculative drill camp on weekdays.
"My family lives in Yong'an Tun, Sanhe County, and Xiaocui is also from Tunli, so I went to inquire and knew where her home was. If I have a ...... The person who sent the letter told her that she should find someone to marry again, anyway, we are just engaged, and we haven't married yet. She is as smart as a chives, and my family doesn't pay much attention to any 'widows', and it is not difficult for her to remarry......"
This seven-foot man still had a smile on his face, but when he said the words "let her remarry", he burst into tears.
Xia Hanxue, who was red-eyed, lowered her head. Xiao Jing took a few deep breaths before nodding and saying, "I've written it all down." Is there anything else you would like to say? ”
Xia Hanxue glanced at him secretly, and the words she heard an hour ago seemed to come back to her ears:
"For a while, we're just recorders...... It is the responsibility of the recorder to faithfully record everything he sees and hears, so it is not appropriate to mix personal emotions in the process. There are many ways in which I can make a passage more poignant or beautiful on the basis of being faithful to the facts and the original meaning, but I believe that what their family wants to hear must be something that is not flowery enough but familiar enough.
As for news writing, that's something very different. If I were to write such a story one day, I would still quote their plain words word for word, and I would not add anything that they hadn't said. Other than that, I use their expressions, their actions, their choices...... All of these things can prove their strong will, to show the world how great these unknown people really are. ”
She still remembered that when she said this, Xiao Jing's eyes were glowing.
In fact, what Xiao Jing is thinking about is that after escaping, the two of them can partner up to do some reporting, just like him and Qin Ziqian.
At that time, he may have become the Xia family's fast son-in-law, and it would not be a problem to go out with his wife!
People have to have a thought, right?
"Can you still leave a message? Then I'll think again. The man in front of Xiao Jing stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, and laughed: "By the way, President Xiao can help me write another sentence, there is a bastard named Ma Monkey in the tun, he is a scoundrel, but he is very righteous and very filial." He is a partner who grew up with me in open crotch pants, if it is convenient, please give him a word, just say: I hope he will take care of my wife for me in the love of the year, I have the knowledge to accept this love, and I will repay it in the next life! ”
The man chattered a lot, and Xiao Jing almost wrote down his words as they were. When he got up satisfied, the next man sat down in his place and told his story with emotion......
This is written for two hours. It wasn't until it was dark that the last person to leave a message left, and the people who lived in a yurt with Xiao Jing were all "chatting" outside, and no one came in.
Xiao Jing, who had a sore wrist, smiled slightly: These brothers are very eye-catching, they saw that Xia Hanxue was also there, so they honestly stayed outside!
"Childe, will you drink saliva?" Xia Hanxue pushed a bowl of water in front of him and said softly, "It's been so long, you haven't even drunk saliva." ”
She had poured this water a long time ago, but unfortunately President Xiao, who had been busy writing, didn't have time to drink water at all.
Xiao Jing laughed self-deprecatingly: "Look at me, it's rare for you to serve me once, and I haven't grasped it yet." Hey, you're really amazing, I just need to kneel and sit on a stick of incense and my legs will be numb, you sit for two hours, and you still look like you're nothing! ”
Xia Hanxue smiled and was about to speak, when a person suddenly walked in outside.
The man looked at her and then at Xiao Jing, and smiled apologetically: "Are you talking about something?" Why don't I come back later? ”
No wonder he said that. The two people sitting side by side looked at each other and smiled, the woman was gentle and charming, the man was full of tenderness, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a loving little couple.
There was no time to mock Xia Hanxue, who was so ashamed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, Xiao Jing hurriedly responded: "He Baihu! You're a rarity, please take a seat! I don't know if you're here......"
He Baihu coughed lightly and sat down unceremoniously. With a serious face, he pondered for a moment before saying, "Naturally, it's to keep a message." Also, I have something I would like you to help me with. ”
Xiao Jing was a little strange. Isn't he alone, there should be no relatives...... Ah, did he have a story that he wanted me to put in the newspaper, so he came here?
Thinking of this, Xiao Jing sat up straight and said solemnly: "I understand, please speak!" ”
