So, as time passed bit by bit, starting from Prime Minister Lunta, this relaxed mentality gradually spread.

So much so that even the common people in the ravine knew that the Hua Han Dynasty would not attack it. Most of these people are Han Chinese, and they can't help but be a little disappointed when they hear the news. They were waiting for Hua Han to come and rescue them, the poor people who had been enslaved by the Tartars.

Disappointment is disappointment, but life has to pass.

Zhang Laohan sat sullenly on the kang in his thatched house. The old woman brought gruel and a plate of pickles. It was nearly dusk, and this was the second meal of the old couple. This has been an improvement. I used to eat only one meal. Sometimes I can't even eat a meal.

Now the Dayang Imperial Court has reduced at least half of the taxes, so that the two of them can have some surplus food to satisfy their hunger.

"Old man, let's eat!" The old woman whispered. This old woman is skinny and skinny. The eyes are sunken, the cheeks are shriveled, and the cheekbones are high. The complexion is dark and yellow, and it is not healthy at first glance.

And the old man's body was not much better, just looking at his hand holding the bowl, rough and thin, as if it were just a skeleton.

The sun had set, and it was getting dark.

The old couple were reluctant to light the oil lamp, and hurriedly took advantage of the dim light before the dark sky to finish a simple and no longer simple dinner.

The old woman cleaned up the table, came back and said, "Old man, go to sleep." That way you won't get hungry anytime soon. ”

The old man had worked in the fields during the day, and when he came back, he was hungry with his chest pressed against his back. This bowl of gruel didn't even have a bottom. Fuchu is already hungry.

But what's the solution? Now the family's food can only be eaten like this, otherwise the fire will be cut off. That would starve to death.

"Bear with me, old man." The old woman said as she laid out the old man's bed.

Now that it was completely dark, the old woman could only continue to work with a little bit of starlight.

The old man still lay down, just like the old woman said, if you lie down and sleep, you will be hungry slowly. Of course, the old man knows the truth about this. It is very slow to consume energy when a person is motionless.

Now, he can only lie motionless on the kang, letting the little porridge in his stomach digest as slowly as possible. I have to go to work in the fields early tomorrow morning. Wait until after the sun is slanting to have breakfast.

The old woman also lay down, and lay down beside her. The old couple depended on each other for their lives and were used to sleeping next to each other. But they lay down and didn't move. Only by not moving can you keep the gruel in your stomach.

"Old man, why have you been sullen all these days?" The old woman asked softly, she didn't even dare to speak loudly, she was afraid of consuming the gruel in her stomach.

"Don't talk." The old man reminded him that he was afraid that the old woman would soon be hungry.

But the old woman had to ask, because he saw that his old man was not the same as before. I used to be sad and worried, but this time it seems to be even more worried. She was worried that the old man would get sick. I don't have the money to buy medicine.

"No, I'm going to ask you, you can tell me honestly!" The old woman said softly.

The old man did not answer, but remained silent.

The old lady asked again.

The old man had no choice but to reply: "I'm worried, I'm worried that the Hua Han Dynasty won't attack the Tartars!" ”

"Ahem! What's so worrying about this? If we don't fight, we won't fight, don't we still have to live? The old woman was only comforting the old man, but she was actually very disappointed when she heard the news.

"Ahem! You're a woman, what do you know? The old man said impatiently.

The old woman said: "I don't understand, but I know that worry will worry about bad people." If you have three long and two short, how can I live if I have an old woman! ”

The old man said, "Ah! I also know this, but I also know that as long as Hua Han calls, we will have a good life in the future. At least I can eat dry food. We don't have to be angry with the Tarnu anymore. I've been looking forward to the Hua Han Dynasty coming over. But today in the field, I heard the news from Wang Laohan of Dongshan. Do you think I'm disappointed? ”

"But you can't change this matter if you're disappointed, it's useless for you to be scared to death? Let's live our lives with peace of mind. The old woman said.

"Old woman, have you forgotten how our son died?" The old man asked.

The old woman sighed and fell silent.

The old man also sighed and said, "They all died by the sword of the Tarslaves. I'm at odds with the Tartar. As he spoke, his emotions stirred up.

The old woman said, "I'm also that Tartar, but what can we two old things do with that Tartar?" Don't think about it, old man. ”

The old man said, "It's not that I'm thinking, but I'm just waiting for the Tatars to be defeated by Hua Han." And this is the land of our Han people, and we must not let these beast-like Tatar slaves occupy it. ”

The old woman was silent for a moment and said: "Old man, don't think about it, in my opinion, the Hua Han Dynasty will definitely come over if you touch it." I just don't know when. ”

The old man said, "Don't dream. Why not fight now? Wait until the Tatars are strong before fighting? ”

The old woman said: "My wife doesn't understand the affairs of the imperial court, but do I know that the current Tartar slaves are not strong?" ”

"But Hua Han can drive the Tar slaves from the south of the Tianjiang River back to the north of the Tianjiang River, which shows that the army of the Hua Han Dynasty is still very powerful, and they should drive the Tartar slaves back to the desert in the north in one go, so that they will never be able to get out." The old man said hatefully.

The old woman had no choice but to persuade again and said, "Okay, old man, don't think about it, go to sleep." You're going to go to the ground tomorrow morning. ”

The old man said, "It's not that I'm thinking about it, I just don't understand. Can't sleep. ”

The old woman said, "You can't sleep, then I'll sleep." ”

The old man said, "Sleep yours!" "With anger.

In fact, the old woman couldn't sleep, so the two old men were lying on the kang in the dark, staring at the dark night.

We all know that this miserable life will go on until death.

There was no hope of counting on Hua Han.

Sleep, maybe you can sleep to death directly, and it's also a relief. It is better to die than to live like this.

But there is another saying, it is better to die than to live.

Life is like this, and we have to face the torture of life and the threat of death all the time.

I hope that all people have a good life, this is Liu Yong's idea. At this moment, he was standing under the map and looking at the area, and the area he saw was the area where the two miserable old men were.

This may be the place he will attack first, located at the northern foot of Qinshan Mountain in Chengchuan Province. I want to talk about "Song Gui of the Financial Empire" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
