Chapter 134: The Fire Tree Flows
The fireworks at night illuminated the sky of Yongjiang, and since the scholars and Zeng Cong's soldiers were stationed in Yongjiang, they did not oppress and kill the people in Yongjiang City, but treated them well, just like when they were merging states.
At the beginning, the common people in Yongjiang City were still a little trembling, those who did business did not dare to open their doors, and those who cultivated did not dare to go to the field to farm, but after a few days, people found that nothing bad happened, so there would be a group of bold people who came out to explore the wind, and then one after another people came out to work and continue their previous lives.
Of course, there are some righteous indignation, perhaps the ancestors have received the grace of the virtuous king Yanli, so in their hearts, they still think about Xichuan, and the rest, most of the common people, whether they have received the grace or not, just want to live a good life, even if they received the grace of the virtuous king Yanli, it is also to live a good life, not that they don't know how to learn about the entu, but the current war continues, the life of the whole family is still overwhelmed, there is still energy and time, for the favor received before, Give up your life too. Therefore, those who are not angry in their hearts, as long as they go too far, Zeng Cong and the scholars are also magnanimous, and use their actions to prove to the people of Yongjiang that they are not inferior to the virtuous king Yanli of the year.
Looking at the clusters of fireworks blooming overhead, Su Yu pulled the last bite of rice in the bowl into her mouth, turned her face sideways to look at Zeng Cong, and felt that although Zeng Cong looked similar to her age, compared with Zeng Cong, her ideals, ambitions, and deeds were less than one-tenth or two-tenth of Zeng Cong.
The story of Zeng Cong's childhood, Su Yu also heard him mention a few words, although he did not elaborate, Su Yu knew that Zeng Cong, like Yan Mi, were both people who had suffered hardships, and they both wanted people who had suffered like them to live a better life.
Compared with Zeng Cong and Yan Mi, Su Yu felt that compared to Yan Mi who was born in a princely family, and later had a brother like Xiao Yi to protect him, Zeng Cong had suffered more and more, not to mention how he was displaced when he was a child, he grew up with his own ability, but perhaps for some unavoidable reason, he became Wei Tong's puppet, and now that he has come out, he still needs to be at the mercy of Wei Niancheng, Zeng Cong is gentle and obedient in the eyes of others, and even said that he is low-key and sleek, but Su Yu doesn't know what kind of experience it is. grinded a high-spirited young man into such a look.
But even though this world has given him too much injustice and darkness, Su Yu feels that Zeng Cong will one day step to the highest peak of officialdom, and what he will return to the entire people of Daliang must not be selfishness and greed, but that he wants to use his own strength to change the darkness he has experienced.
This is something that Su Yu thinks is beyond his reach.
may also respond to that sentence, people are more angry than people, Su Yu feels that his previous dream of being a hero, compared with others, is just like a child playing at home, obviously a little person who has no ambitions, is comfortable and selfish.
In fact, in Su Yu's heart, the previous scholars may have the same idea as Zeng Cong, and the scholars also want to guide the country and make suggestions, so that countless villages like Qingyunling can be comfortable and happy, and no longer suffer from poverty and war. But with her self-killing by the Weishui River, the experience and death of Yiyi completely made the scholar have a pure heart and be infected with indelible hatred, which is like being stained with the most ruthless poison in the world, but as long as he lives, he can't quit it.
Back then, a few of them agreed to be white-headed together, but now, the scholar may never have thought about getting old, and now he is desperate and fighting for his life.
Maybe it's also because, the day before Yiyitou left, he looked at the infant child very quietly and pityingly for a while, and then looked up at Su Yu, his eyes were red, which made Su Yu's heart ache, thinking that Yiyi was going to cry, but Yiyi smiled again, and said to Su Yu: "Sister Yu, even if you are a man in the next life, I can't marry you." ”
At that time, Su Yu saw Yiyi smiling, his heart eased for a moment, and he deliberately pouted and asked, "Why?" ”
Yiyi looked at Su Yu's stomach for a moment, teased the children next to her, and said, "Because you have someone you love, and I will marry Brother Wenliang in my next life." ”
When Yiyi said this, the scholar was braving the snow to enter the house, Su Yu obviously looked at the scholar when he turned around and closed the door, quietly wiped his tears, his expression was full of indescribable emotion and contentment, just like a person who has worked hard to finally get what he wants.
Su Yu felt that the scholar might be the same as her on the night when she was besieged in the mountains and forests, when she thought that her life was coming to an end, she always felt that the faster she walked on the Huangquan Road, she would be able to catch up with the footsteps of Yiyi.
But there has never been a time like now, Su Yu is so reluctant for a scholar to catch up with Yiyi's footsteps for the first time, even if they are now falling apart, even if they have grievances in their hearts, even if they don't see each other again, even if they just hear each other's news from the words of others, they hope that they will grow old together.
With a whoosh, a blue firework rushed into the sky, Zeng Cong took a sip of wine, turned his face to look at Su Yu with a somewhat melancholy expression, and then opened his mouth to comfort: "Xu Cheng came from Beijing a few days ago, I sent a message to him to go directly to Baizhou to help Brother Wen, counting the days, it should be time now." ”
Su's eyes lit up, he looked at Zeng Cong, and when he noticed his intentions, he didn't know how to express himself, so he simply reached out and patted Zeng Cong's shoulder, opened his mouth, and said lyrically: "Thank you, brother." ”
In Su Yu's heart, Zeng Cong has always been a good-tempered and bright person, but for some reason, on this younger brother, he is always more than the scholar Da Kui combined, and he has to be careful, every time Su Yu calls for life, Zeng Cong has to frown, if it weren't for the good looks of his life, his frowning is also full of charm, Su Yu feels that if it was Tang Zhen and them, she would have led him out long ago, and the threat of force would have been forced to comply.
But good-looking people are willing to frown, so let's frown.
Knowing that Xu Cheng went to help, Su Yu's heart was just relieved, but when he saw Zeng Cong speak, he seemed to be a little embarrassed and said, "There is something, I'm sorry." ”
Su Yu was surprised, "What's the matter?" ”
"The person who was sent to the border pass to deliver the letter a while ago was startled by a foraging beast on the way, broke a leg and came back, and I only sent someone again yesterday to deliver it, and I want to deliver it, but it will be late."
The letter has not yet been delivered to Xiao Yi, and it has broken a leg, which makes Su Yu feel a little disappointed and embarrassed.
"This, the letter hasn't been delivered, it's good to send it again, if the person is broken, take care of it, anyway, anyway, I'm pregnant for ten months, and I won't be able to give birth for a while."
"Actually-----"
Zeng Cong hesitated for a moment, and then persuaded: "Actually, whether it is the border pass, or Brother Wen, it is not stable, if you want to raise a fetus with peace of mind, it is still the most suitable place." ”
Su Yu shook his head, and handed Zeng Cong a grateful look, but still insisted: "In this life, there must always be a few more people worth cherishing, the scholar is no longer the meticulous and steady scholar of the year, and what he is looking forward to now is to beat down the entire Xichuan for the burial of clothes, but Xichuan is so easy to fight, if I don't help him, I'm afraid of ••••••"
"It is said that Yan Zhe Shizi is also your old friend, if Xichuan is destroyed, then he?"
Su Yu looked at the fireworks in the sky that were gradually extinguishing, and in the flash of time, things were not people, and hope was empty, and hope was empty.
"For the sake of me many years ago, and for the sake of my clothes, I always look at him to be ashamed. If it wasn't about him, he should also come out and explain to the scholar, the scholar had a twist in his heart, if he wasn't very disappointed, he would definitely not have died. ”
Zeng Cong listened, and also looked at the sky as deep as inky blue, "Sometimes I look forward to it, but it's still dark." ”
"No, it won't." Su Yu stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, and said to Zeng Cong on the side: "Look at the faint sky in the sky, the sky is full of starlight." ”
Zeng Cong looked at the sky again in the direction of Su Yu's finger, and sure enough, faintly, there were some starlights flashing.
"Whoosh~", I don't know who is nearby and put another bush, the golden fireworks, exploded loudly in the air, and then crackled a few times, and in an instant, the sky overflowed with brilliant fire trees and silver.
The annual Chinese New Year's Eve passed like this, eating the most homely meals, watching the fireworks set off by others, such a good scene, but the atmosphere was a little sunk.
Separated by a wall, listening to the cheers of the people outside, Su Yu suddenly put his hand to his mouth and cheered, this sound, others may think it is normal, but a few people who drank too much and were drunk at the dinner table raised their heads sharply and quickly asked, "What's wrong, what's going on?" ”
Su Yu looked at the follow-up drunken eyes, trying to make his expression fresh, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, laughing for a while, and still didn't let him touch his stomach and breathe a sigh of relief.
Zeng Cong watched from the sidelines, and laughed twice with Su Yu.
This night, it wasn't until the husband who was working outside to make a fuss make every effort to breastfeed, and struck the gongs and drums in his hands three times loudly, that everyone stumbled and went to sleep in the room.
In the past, Su Yu felt that the days of the New Year always passed quickly, but now he waits and waits, and feels as if he has waited for a season of flowers to bloom and fall, and only from the new year to the first day of the new year.
Early in the morning, Su Yu just woke up, so when she asked Cui'er to cook breakfast, she boiled an egg for her, because she didn't know which way she was committed, and the eyelid of her right eye had been jumping uncontrollably, so she learned some folk methods from all over the country, and rolled on the eyelids with boiled eggs, and this folk method was sometimes not necessarily effective, such as Su Yu rolling three in a row. The egg is not good, so I want to ask God which way the gods are sent.
