Chapter 248 It's hard to give up this love and make it a memory

One hundred gold yuan coupons, if you use the largest denomination, there are not many, but Liu Yuxi deliberately asked Zhang Lushan to change him to the usual one, which is a hundred, when he put this stack of gold yuan coupons in front of Zheng Shijiu, Zheng Shijiu was dumbfounded, and that look made Liu Yuxi feel very happy.

Zheng Shijiu reported the figure of 200 yuan, and he didn't think that Liu Yuxi could afford it, but he just wanted to force Liu Yuxi to retreat. After counting out a hundred guan, he licked his lips and stared at Liu Yuxi with blazing eyes: "Only one hundred!" ”

"There are still a hundred times to go with you, these days, you have to keep a good show for me, and when I earn another hundred times, I will marry her!" Liu Yuxi said in a rough voice.

"Is it the money given to you by those officials from Lin'an City?" Hearing him speak like this, Zheng Shijiu took a breath of cold air: "You promised them?" ”

"Naturally, I agreed, or where would I get all this money?"

Zheng Shijiu sighed twice, his eyes rolled, and his gaze staring at Liu Yuxi was a little strange. After a while, he sighed and returned the hundred guan to Liu Yuxi.

"Why is that?" Liu Yuxi was furious.

"Although I want money, I can't kill you." Zheng Shijiu shook his head: "You haven't let it out these days, I don't know if you think about it, our Wuxia, in order to help the people who came from Lin'an get rid of the bottom of the water, seven people have died." ”

"What?" Liu Yuxi was also creepy, neither Huang Lizheng nor that Zhang Lushan had ever told him about this matter.

"This is the money of your life, Yuxi, you like my family Xiu'er, if it weren't for my family's situation, I would have liked you, but ...... It's just that you can't afford to kill yourself for it. Zheng Jiu sighed, squatted on the ground, picked up a lump of dirt and drove away the neighbor's house that broke into his small courtyard, and then said: "This money is not for anyone to earn, it is the Dragon King, and he has to sigh between Qutang and Wuxia." ”

Liu Yuxi snorted coldly, and stuffed the money into Zheng Shijiu's hand: "Uncle Hugh said something unlucky, let's go close, if we don't do this, in which year will we not kill seventeen or eighteen people?" ”

His voice was a little desolate, Zheng Jiu glanced at him, and before he could speak, his daughter's voice came from the room: "Brother Yuxi, there are ways to make money, and this life-saving thing must not be done." Brother Yuxi, if the slave learned that you actually got it with your head, what kind of feeling did the slave feel in his heart, did my brother ever think about it? ”

Liu Yuxi was stunned, he didn't expect Zheng Xiu to eavesdrop on his conversation with Zheng Shijiu in the house, he was both happy and bitter in his heart, the more affectionate and righteous Xiu'er treated him, the more unwilling he was to abandon her.

The marriage of the four sons of Zheng Shijiu's family all needs money, even if Zheng Shijiu agrees to marry Xiu'er to him now, can he watch his brother-in-law beat up a bachelor because he has no money to plan a marriage? It is reasonable for him to sit idly by, and at that time he will inevitably have to take the risk of retiring the platoon, and sooner or later he will have to throw his life in the river. Instead of making Xiu'er a widow at that time, it is better to take a risk before the two get married, lest an accident harm Xiu'er.

Thinking so in his heart, he made up his mind and glanced at Zheng Shijiu, but Zheng Shijiu shook his head: "Although I have good money, I don't want to blame me for this harmful daughter for the rest of my life, Yuxi, I also grew up watching you, you still live honestly!" ”

Liu Yuxi was helpless, so he had to withdraw the gold yuan coupon and leave Zheng Shijiu's door gloomily. It's just that he hasn't given up that thought in his heart, and he only walked a few steps, and heard Xiu'er's voice behind him: "Brother Yuxi, if you go behind my back to do that dangerous thing...... I, I will never see you again in this life! ”

Liu Yuxi was really desperate at this time, he slowly returned to his home, and he didn't cook on the fire, just sat dry, full of loss.

"Are you ready to give up?" When night fell, two figures appeared at the door of his house, and Zhang Lushan's voice came.

Originally, the two made an appointment, and Liu Yuxi left with Zhang Lushan today, but he didn't come until the evening. In the area from Wuxia to Qutang, Liu Yuxi has the best water ability, and he is also the most familiar with the underwater reef, if he helps, then he will be more sure to complete the task assigned by the Son of Heaven. Therefore, although they understood that Liu Yuxi might have changed his hexagram, the two still came to convince him one last time.

"The money is on the table, take it back." Liu Yuxi sighed and said.

"I'm not in a hurry for money, but I don't know why you changed your mind?"

Liu Yuxi knew that the other party was from the government, and if he really angered them, he was afraid that there would be no good fruit to eat, so he explained the reason for the matter, and then said with a wry smile: "I originally worked hard to marry my daughter-in-law, but now I ...... What's the use of making money? ”

Hearing his reply, Zhang Lushan could only give up, although he was born as a righteous boy, but he was good at blasting rather than words, after a long time of silence, he took back those gold yuan coupons, and then left.

For three days in a row, Liu Yuxi was depressed, he had no father and mother, and there were no relatives in the family, so no one paid attention to him. On the fourth day, he finally cheered up and decided to release the wood to drain it, if he could release the giant wood downstream, there would naturally be merchants to buy it, although that little money was far from the Zheng family's 200 yuan, but the mosquito was small and meat.

Before leaving, he had to go to the neighboring village to meet Xiu'er.

When he arrived in the neighboring village, he heard a commotion, many people came here to watch, Liu Yu was surprised, only three days before going out to be so lively, looking for someone to ask, couldn't help but be shocked.

"How so?"

Today is the day when Xiu'er leaves the cabinet!

Three days ago, when he arrived at Zheng's house, there was no news at all, and Zheng Xiuer repeatedly told him to take a leave of absence to take risks, but in a blink of an eye, the situation suddenly changed, and Xiu'er was going to get married!

"Xiu'er is so blessed, she married a tea merchant in Kuizhou Mansion, that person is just over forty, and his family has an industry of 100,000 yuan, not only gave the Zheng family a large dowry, but also took Xiu'er's brother out of our ravine, saying that he wanted to find a livelihood for them in the city, or buy them some property in the flat land - no matter what, it is better than smothering in this bird place. Yuxi, you've been released in the past two years, and you've heard of the changes outside, right? The man knew that he had a deep affection for Xiu'er, and comforted him: "This is a great joy, the Zheng family has always treated you well, Xiu'er and you are also a small friendship, she can live a good life now, you should be happy for her." ”

"This little cub has no heart and no lungs, how can he know what to be happy about?" Huang Lizheng was also beside him, and said in a weird manner: "Xiu'er is afraid that this wave of water has done something stupid for her, so she married someone in a hurry, and she didn't dare to tell him ......"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Yuxi's face was bruised: "No, no!" Xiu'er is mine, I won't let people marry her no matter what! ”

"Brother Yuxi, you are right, if we are close to the villagers, he will pick the best flower in our ten miles and eight towns as a foreigner, but we have no ability!" A young man is like him: "Kiss, kiss!" ”

Nearby transportation is inconvenient and the mountain people are poor, there is indeed a custom of robbing relatives, hearing the young man say this, Liu Yuxi scolded: "Then rob, big tiger, you go and call someone for me, and when the sedan chair comes out, we will do it!" ”

He was the most outstanding near the water, and he did not take care of the neighbors when he was released, so he was quite authoritative among the young people, and when he heard him speak, the young man immediately rushed over with a red face, and there was no need to look for people everywhere, but most of them gathered to watch the excitement, so in just a moment, more than 20 young people came together.

As soon as these people approached, they immediately understood what was going to happen, and they all began to make a commotion. When the four brothers of the Zheng family heard the sound, they were about to stop Liu Yuxi from speaking, but they were pushed away by him.

"I won't give the face of Emperor Lao Tzu today!" Liu Yuxi's face was hideous, and his face kept twitching: "It has nothing to do with you, when the sedan chair goes out, Xiu'er is not your Zheng family, you just have to watch the excitement!" ”

"Brother Yuxi, we have friendships on weekdays, but you ask from your heart, are there any places where our Zheng family and our sister can't stand your Brother Yuxi?" The eldest and youngest of the four brothers of the Zheng family were sharp-toothed, and followed behind the elder brothers: "If you make such a fuss, you snatched my sister back, can you make my sister wear silk and satin?" Can you let my sister have a maid-in-law? Can you let my sister have foreign goods? ”

Liu Yuxi was stunned when she heard this, and her teeth clucked.

"Our place, in addition to the row, there is only a fraction of the land in the ravine, Brother Yuxi, you don't even have that fraction of the land, that is, my family doesn't need your bride price, can you support my sister, what else can you do besides the row? In the past year, we haven't killed eighteen or nineteen people because of the platoon, and you have an accident in the platoon, so that my sister will be widowed? The third elder of the Zheng family also said: "Big brothers, Brother Yuxi is fooling around, and you are also messing around with him?" ”

The people who followed Liu Yuxi were a little embarrassed, and everyone could hear the Zheng brothers' doubts clearly, which was indeed justified. The nearby villagers make a living by releasing rows, and their families are so poor that they don't want to marry out of this broken ravine, so as not to harm their daughters for a lifetime. It was Liu Yuxi himself, who only felt stuffy in his chest at this time, and he couldn't wait to roar.

In the end, he could only watch the sedan chair carry away the woman who had been his childhood sweetheart for many years. He could vaguely hear Xiu'er's cry in the sedan chair, but he could only watch, he couldn't let Xiu'er live more comfortably, so he could only watch.

Hearing the sound of the lock blowing and beating gradually drifted away, Liu Yuxi couldn't stand it anymore, and quickly ran to the side of the river, wearing only a calf nose pants, and rushed into the water with one heel. When he floated up from the river, his face was wet, and he didn't know whether it was tears or water.

Nine times out of ten it is dangerous on the reef, the village is poor, and many young people can't marry their daughters-in-law, and nine times out of ten it is also because of the turbulent river.

He froze in the water, staring blankly at the waves, his mind wandering, and after a long while, he slowly swam ashore from the middle of the river.

Without wiping his body, he broke into Huang Lizheng's house shirtless: "Uncle Huang Jiu, what about those people who came from Lin'an, take me to find them!" ”

In September of the second year of Yanhuang, autumn was already deep, and Zhao Heju, as usual, read the newspaper delivered today while eating breakfast.

In the front page of the latest issue of the "Great Song Times Weekly", a major news was released: The Three Gorges section, which has plagued the shipping of the Yangtze River for many years, has begun to blast and remove reefs, and it is expected that before the onset of winter, the open reefs that affect the navigation of ordinary ships will be basically removed.

Accompanying the article is a panel painting made by Wen Tong, in which a young man with a cold and resolute gaze and an impermeable tung oil wooden box on his head, fighting hard in the stormy waves of the Three Gorges. After more than a year of hard work and exploration, Wen Tong's level of plate painting has made a breakthrough, when Zhao Youju looked at this plate painting, he felt that this young man's gaze was not only cold and resolute, but also the lines on his face and the curve of his eyebrows, which made him a little crazy and desperate.

He didn't know what was going on behind the young man, but he still stared at the painting for so long that he forgot to eat. Geng Wan whispered two sentences, but he didn't realize that the little bell that was still learning to make a sound startled him with a giggle.

"Good daughter, what are you laughing at?" Zhao Youju put down the newspaper, leaned in front of the little bell, and couldn't help but kiss her daughter's pink face. He has a beard, and if he doesn't have a beard in this era, it will inevitably cause the ministers to discuss, and under this kiss, the little bell itched and giggled again, and reached out to grab his beard. Zhao Youju felt a little pain, but when Han Yu broke the little bell's hand, he was not annoyed, but smiled: "Our little princess's strength has grown again, it hurts more than last time, good daughter, next time the old man named Cui He comes, you have to pull his beard hard!" ”

"Your Majesty!" Han Yu's face turned red, and she couldn't help but glare at him with disgust: "How did Your Majesty teach your daughter!" ”

"My Zhao Yun's daughter, the proud daughter of the sky, naturally has to be spoiled." Zhao Youju said: "Besides, she has an amazing mother, and she won't be rude in the future!" ”

Han Yu looked at Yang Miaozhen, and Yang Miaozhen crooked her mouth with a smile. Among the two children, the little bell is obviously more pleasing to his father, and as the eldest son Zhao Mengjun, Zhao and Ju are not uncaring, but the number of times they hold it in their hands is less than that of his sister, Zhao and Ju prefer to tease the little bell, because the little bell is two months older, and has learned to turn over and sit up, and he likes to be held around very much.

Yang Miaozhen is not jealous of this, she understands that no matter how much Zhao and Ju love the little bell, the little bell is only a princess after all, and Meng Jun is the prince, and he is the eldest son of the emperor.

"Recently, the world has been peaceful, and Your Majesty has spent more time with us." After a while, Han Yu took the little bell from Zhao and Ju's arms.

"It's going to be busy in two days, Liu Tun is going to come back from Xuzhou to report on his work, four ladies, you haven't seen him for a while, after coming back from this trip, I'm going to let him stay in the line, and then you can also call your uncle and mother into the palace."

"Are the children from the Xuzhou Primary School here too?" Yang Miaozhen said with a smile: "Can the official family invite them into the palace, and it will also be lively, so that the two of us can meet." ”

Zhao and Ju groaned slightly, although inviting these children into the palace would inevitably lead to criticism from some officials, but generally speaking, it would only have a positive impact on the people, he nodded and agreed to this matter.
