Chapter Seventy-Two: The Courtyard of the Market

The queen mother's muddy tears rolled down, and the hot tears dripped on the back of Wang Er's hand, Wang Er actually felt hot, this kind of hotness, made his heart tremble.

She continued: "But today, because of your gambling money, you almost had your hands cut off, and my mother thought... I want to put you back from my bowels, that I should not give birth to you, and that I might not let you suffer such pain. ”

"Mother!" Wang Erden knelt on the ground with a "flutter", and his tears couldn't stop flowing down.

The queen mother snorted, wiped a handful of tears, raised her hand to wipe away his tears, and said lovingly: "The Shen family is the lifesaver of our family. You didn't die outside, it's the kindness of others. From today on, unless the Shen family forgives you, don't call me my mother. You remember, remember. ”

After she said this, she stood up, and Wang Er went to help her again, but she slowly pushed her away. Looking at the old lady's trembling back, this made him more uncomfortable than hitting him in the mouth.

He bit his lip and kowtowed three times in a row: "Mother! Wrong! Change, change! Don't deny me, don't deny me, mother! ”

The Queen Mother sighed, but did not look back.

This sigh is full of the pain of the world and hits people's hearts.

The next morning, it was a new day.

The Shen brothers bid farewell to their parents and embarked on the path to Mozhai. At this time, Wang Er got up early in the morning and came to the door of Shen's house.

It happened that Yang Chengli came to Shen's house and wanted to take Shen Cheng to the mountains to measure the fields.

Wang Er touched his bruised, red, swollen cheeks, a little embarrassed, and said, "Uncle Shen, I'm here, what work do I have to do?" ”

Shen Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Bring a hoe, measure the ground first, and then we will turn over the land from beginning to end, and the rest will wait for my junior to learn." ”

"Huh." Wang Er picked up the hoe and followed Yang Chengli and Shen Cheng out.

Shen Ning in the room slightly opened the curtain and glanced at it, retracted his gaze, and said with a smile: "Mother, Wang Er actually took the initiative to come over to find a job to do." ”

Shen Wang put down the embroidery work in his hand, also looked at the curtain, and pouted: "This kid still has a conscience." After a pause, she turned her head and instructed: "As the saying goes, a dog can't change to eat, you can avoid him, remember to follow me closely and don't be alone." ”

Shen Ning frowned and nodded, "I know." ”

Let's say that on this day, the spring is clear, and Dashilar, Shuntianfu, just like the market of the whole Ming Dynasty, began to sell all kinds of orchids on the third day of March.

Because His Majesty believes in Taoism, on the upcoming day of Emperor Zhenwu's birthday, the incense is also stronger than in the past.

In this infinitely quiet season, beggars with Shanxi accents appear from time to time in the bustling street markets of Beijing. Because the bustling street market around them is too busy, and the clothes of the kings and grandsons who come and go are too rich, these beggars look even more dazzling.

A small vendor on the side of the road chuckled, his mouth full of Beijing dialect, and shouted in a sharp voice: "It's a group of old people again, what's the matter, the sanatorium in Shanxi Province can't accommodate them?" Let's go up to our capital to figure out what's going on. ”

Hearing his sour words, the old man selling steamed cakes on the side was timid, and hurriedly persuaded in a low voice: "Hammer!" Don't mind words. Our Daming Kingdom is different from foreign countries, Taizu strictly ordered to treat beggars well, you talk nonsense like this, you are caught, that is to be scolded with a rod! ”

"Humph!" The vendor glanced at his lips dissatisfied, as if these homeless beggars had discredited him, and he didn't know where he came from, which made him look down on the people in all regions except Suncheonfu.

At this time, several young workers from the sanatorium got into the sea of people, while attracting the displaced people to settle down temporarily, and some took out money and asked them to leave quietly.

The displaced people have all come to this stable and prosperous world of flowers, where are they willing to leave? When the persuasion was unsuccessful, they had to be brought back to the nursing home and settled.

Seeing this scene, the vendor snorted bitterly and coldly, and his voice was stretched out like that of the locals, as if he had a fruit core in his mouth, and said lazily: "Look, there are not one or two old people who come to Beijing to beg for a living, who can care about them for a lifetime?" In my opinion, these people are not diligent in their limbs, and they have come to our capital to reap the benefits! ”

"Phew!" The old man took a big sip and said angrily: "Old man, I am also from Waifu, let's eat your rice and noodles?" Why do you have a white eye? Counting up to three generations, who hasn't fallen into trouble and begged for food? You can say it quickly! ”

"Yo! Hey, hit someone! Come on! Let's take a look! ”

The old man picked up the rolling pin and hit him head-on: "Kill you with a hammer, so that you know what is called Bashi!" The old woman on the tea stall on the side fell in love with this old man, and when she saw that he had suffered a loss, she hurriedly rolled up her sleeves and stood at the corner of the street and scolded.

"Hit it! Let you stretch out the sound, I'm afraid that others don't know that you are a Shuntianfu sitting household, the family is poor and leaking on all sides, eighteen people are huddled in a nest to stack Arhats, pick up ashes, steal people, you can't do it yourself, you broke your head from the eight alleys, and welcomed a little daughter-in-law from Waifu home, this is to make the girl stay widowed or to be your stepmother! ”

"I, I, I'll kill you old thing!"

"Eh, it's a fight, let's go take a look!"

A small farce has just started above the market, but above the temple, it is about to start a battle of acting skills and wisdom.

Xia Yan's body has been very strange recently, even in this warm spring alternation of cold and summer, he still often feels that his heart is on fire, and there is always a hot breath in his body ready to go.

In the New Year, he will reach the year of the sixtieth year, and it is no wonder that he feels sad. He stood under the spring sun, and thin sweat oozed from his forehead from time to time, and he kept wiping his sweat with a soft towel, which looked a little cramped.

Tao Zhongwen was dressed in a chic and elegant robe, and came with elegant and slow steps, followed by two apprentices, slightly shook off the dust, and bowed to Xia Yan.

Xia Yan glanced at him, a little unhappy in his heart, but instead seemed to think of something, and he didn't smile, and he smiled sullenly, and said, "Tao Immortal." ”

Xia Yan actually talked to him? Tao Zhongwen was secretly surprised in his heart, but his face was full of respect, and he hurriedly accosted: "Xia Shoufu's complexion is not very good, has he been feeling unwell recently?" ”

"Uh..." Xia Yan hesitated for a moment, nodded, raised his hand to wipe his sweat, and said, "Maybe the sun is too strong." ”

Tao Zhongwen frowned slightly and looked at the majestic closed palace gate, turned his head and said to the apprentice behind him: "Go and get three coins of gentian, two coins of gastrodia, five coins of rehmannia and three coins of kudzu, and send them to Xia Shoufu's mansion." He raised his eyes to look at Xia Yan, smiled kindly, and continued: "This is a recipe handed down by Ge Hong Ge Xiangong, cook the corn and put it in cold water, soak it for five days to make the water sour and float on the white flowers, and take the water to decoct the medicine. ”

Xia Yan was slightly stunned, what is this called?

Tao Zhongwen continued: "This water is called sour syrup, which regulates the middle and induces qi, appetizes and quenches thirst, relieves annoyance and sleep, regulates the viscera, and can relieve the pain of night sweats in Xia Shoufu." Those herbs are the amount of three pairs of medicines, if you feel effective after taking them, you can slowly take three or five pairs. But after all, it is a medicine that is poisonous and cannot be relied on for a long time. ”

Xia Yan was slightly stunned, and thought to himself, this villain's sycophancy is really disgusting, if it weren't for the plan to win people, he would not have mediated with this person if he died.

"Then thank you Tao Immortal."
