Stabilizing his mind, Zhong Zishuo spoke again: "Although it is said that it is a pre-battle robe, but in the hearts of everyone, how can this friendship be broken again, in order not to hurt the second brother Shan, your father and other three people worked together to capture the second brother Shan, after the second brother was captured, Wang Shichong's subordinates had no generals, besieged the city for three months, Wang Shichong finally opened the city and surrendered, Wang Shichong surrendered, the second brother was discouraged, and would rather die than descend to the Tang Dynasty, and was finally given death by His Majesty. There carried the most alive time of their brothers, the founding of the Tang Dynasty, after the Quartet was settled, your father went back to Erxianzhuang, but later His Majesty was in Chang'an, everywhere by the Xi Prince built the exclusion, your Uncle Cheng wrote a letter to your father, asking him to come to Chang'an to help, but who thought, this go, never came back, your father before leaving specially instructed, no matter what happens, you must take care of Erxianzhuang, and then your mother heard the bad news that your father died in battle, for you, this is not far away, moved to Chang'an, Some of the old people have not brought, all stayed in Shanxi, Zhenguan two years, that is, when you were two years old, first a great drought, then a locust plague, all the displaced people from all over the country gathered in Chang'an, even if your mother is kind, it is not enough, your fief is not far from Chang'an, so you took in a group of displaced people from the county near Erxianzhuang to settle down in Dong County, so, little marquis, your home is not only Chang'an's Xuanwei Hou Mansion, but also Erxianzhuang. ”

Along the way, I listened to Zhong Zishuo talk about Xuan Mingde, and I couldn't help but admire my "father" who had never met before, and I was even more respectful of my mother Wang, who was also born in the rivers and lakes, but for Xuan Mingde, for himself, over the years, he had already polished the arrogance on the rivers and lakes before, and took care of the huge Hou Mansion wholeheartedly, although the Xuanwei Hou Mansion was also a big family with a head and a face on the face of Chang'an, but in the Hou Mansion, the Wang family treated his subordinates more kindly than Xuan Shijing, without him, Xuan Shijing is the head of the family, since he was a child, Wang's requirements for him are very strict, in the rivers and lakes, if there is no real ability, it is difficult to survive, not to mention in Chang'an, the imperial capital, although Chang'an is large, it is not easy to live, Wang is very clear, in the disaster years, Wang spared no effort to help the old people of Erxianzhuang, sheltering the victims, this is also one of the few people in the rivers and lakes who have retained the breath of Wang's body, guarding the huge family business, Chang'an, Shanxi worries, guarding Xuan Mingde's desire to take care of Erxianzhuang before his death, Xuan Shijing only discovered, It turned out that the Wang family was unconsciously carrying so much. Before I knew it, I had reached the boundary of Dongxian County, and I vaguely saw a patch of houses not far away, which was probably the residence of the farmers.

The carriage drove for a while, Zhong Zishuo parked the carriage in front of a relatively large courtyard, and hugged Xuan Shijing from the carriage: "Little Hou Ye, this is the courtyard of our house in Dong County, it is a little simpler, and it has not been rested, if the little Hou Ye grows up in the future, if he wants to come to Zhuangzi, the ward will call me, and I will find someone to repair this courtyard in advance." ”

"When I was born, this fief was under the name of the Hou Mansion, why is it close to four years, and it is still so desolate?" Xuan Shijing was puzzled, Qin Ying told himself that most of the noble fiefs in Chang'an were around Chang'an, and the fiefs were built with Zhuangzi, and in the summer, the whole family would go to Zhuangzi to escape the summer, because Chang'an, as the imperial capital, the population is growing faster and faster, and in summer, the temperature in Chang'an City will be much higher than the surroundings, and the suburbs as a fiefdom have become summer resorts. Even His Majesty the Emperor will take the queen concubines and many princes and princesses to Jiucheng Palace for summer vacation.

"This little marquis, the entry of the house" Zhong Zishuo looked embarrassed.

Only then did Xuan Shijing react, a huge Xuanwei Hou Mansion, there was no income at all! It's really hard for my mother and Uncle Zhong, a large family has to support and support them for so long.

I never expected that when I came to Datang, I became a natural marquis, and I had to worry about money, I looked down at my small body, I was only four years old after the New Year, so I couldn't help it, it seems that after I go back, I have to find a way to make money first.

Xuan Shijing asked Zhong Zishuo to take him into the yard, it is also his own real estate, he must see what it looks like first, and as for the problem of repairing it in the future, he will talk about it when he earns money.

Previously, Zhong Zishuo had already sent someone to inform this side that today the family would come to Zhuangzi to meet with the villager, so as soon as the carriage stopped, the villagers came to the courtyard one after another to wait.

"Little Marquis, Steward Zhong, the farmers outside are almost all here." The servant who came with Xuan Shijing ran into the courtyard and said.

"Little Marquis, then let's go out, this courtyard has been uninhabited for a long time, it is all deserted, and there is nothing to see." Zhong Zishuo bent over and said to Xuan Shijing.

"Well, Uncle Zhong, you can carry me over, I can't walk anymore." Xuan Shijing was a little embarrassed, he was tired of traveling all the way, where could this small body stand it.

Zhong Zishuo bent down to pick up Xuan Shijing, strode towards the door, and put Xuan Shijing down not far from the door, although Xuan Shijing was young, but the majesty of the head of the family still had to be there.

Out of the gate, Xuan Shijing saw that there were nearly 400 people in front of the gate, all of them were from Zhuangzi, coarse linen clothes, and some of them were carrying hoes on their shoulders, and they seemed to have just come from the field.

Facing such a scene for the first time, Xuan Shijing didn't know what to say, so he pulled Zhong Zishuo's sleeve, Zhong Zishuo bent down and looked at Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing whispered in Zhong Zishuo's ear and asked, "Uncle Zhong, what should I say?" ”

"The little marquis said hello to everyone, and then told them that we purchased New Year's goods from Chang'an for them, and instructed the next people to distribute the New Year's goods, and the farmers will definitely be grateful to the little marquis."

Listening to Zhong Zishuo's words, Xuan Shijing sighed in his heart, what a simple Tang people.

"Uncles and uncles, Shijing is here to give you a first greeting for your early years." Xuan Shijing arched his hand at the crowd.

"Don't dare, don't dare." The dealer below hurriedly returned the salute, although the child standing on the steps was only three or four years old, but the title of a marquis fell down, and everyone was sincerely afraid.

Zhong Zishuo frowned: "Little Marquis, your status is noble, it's not appropriate to do this." ”

After all, Xuan Shijing is a good young man born under the red flag, and he is not yet comfortable with the so-called humility of Datang, and said: "Uncle Zhong, I am still young, just a junior, you see the people standing under the steps, these are the most simple people of my Datang, if there is no them, wouldn't my Hou Ye be worthless." Looking at the tattered villagers wearing on the Zhuangzi, Xuan Shijing couldn't afford to put up the Hou Ye's shelf, and now, Xuan Shijing thinks that he is not qualified to put up a shelf.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Shijing knows that most of the state capitals of Datang suffered a disaster last year, and many people moved into Dongxian County this year, since they came, we are a family, Shijing is the head of the family, this is also the New Year, the house has bought some New Year's goods for everyone, there are not many things, don't dislike it, don't leave for a while, I asked Uncle Zhong to arrange to send things down, usually live a hard life and don't worry, since it is the New Year, let's have a good and lively life."

When the people standing at the bottom heard that the family was going to distribute New Year's goods, their faces all showed a look of joy and gratitude.

"Thank you, little marquis." The people below opened their mouths to thank them.

Xuan Shijing looked at the three or four hundred people standing below, and then thought about the three cars of things he brought this time, how to see how it was not enough, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, after all, in the past three years, in addition to the gifts of several well-connected princes, the rest is the rent paid by this group of people every year, although His Majesty the Emperor said that he was rewarded with some things during the New Year's holidays, but the gifts were never good to take out and exchange them for silver money, which also made Xuan Shijing despise His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and gave some pearl jade, silk and satin, It's better to give a few strings of copper coins to the truth, Xuan Shijing made up his mind, and went back to pick a few corals from the warehouse and sold them, dignified and county-like, even the money for the purchase of New Year's goods on the Zhuangzi had to be picked out from between the teeth, the fief was three years, and the courtyard on the village was cheaper than snakes, insects, rats and ants for three years.

I'm afraid that this Datang will never be able to find a second Hou Ye as poor as me, this is Xuan Shijing's first thought since he was "sensible".
