Chapter 66 Hsinchu County IV

Chen was angry and scared, glanced at Megumi Tanaka, pressed his finger on Ding Huimin's forehead, and said angrily, "You kid! ”

"The child has a tantrum, it's okay, it's okay." Megumi Tanaka smiled and pulled out another piece of candy from her pocket, "I still have this last piece." ”

Seeing the sugar cube, Ding Chengjie stopped crying all of a sudden, his eyes opened wide, "Sugar~Sugar~"

Chen was afraid that Ding Huimin would make another moth, so he directly grabbed her hand and took her into his arms. Ding Huimin was hugged tightly by Chen, although it was not very comfortable, she did not struggle too much.

Liu Ma took advantage of the situation to take the sugar cube from Megumi Tanaka, peel off the sugar coating, and stuffed it into Ding Chengjie's mouth.

A turmoil dissipated, Liu's mother was very happy, she looked at Tanaka Megumi, "The girl's heart is so good." ”

Megumi Tanaka bowed, "It's over!" ”

Seeing that Megumi Tanaka is so knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and she is handsome, but the red armbands and leather belts are a little dazzling, Liu's mother glanced down again, and she felt very sorry, "Tsk~tsk~tsk!" How can the girl also have a pair of heavenly feet! Where are you from? Why don't parents care?"

In the Qing Dynasty, Taiwan's women's Taoism was not so rigorous, and the constraints they endured were smaller, and it was not popular for rural women to bind their feet. But in the city, in the homes of the official eunuchs and gentry, the feudal etiquette is still quite strict.

"My name is Megumi Tanaka and I'm Japanese. Foot binding is a bad habit, we Japanese have never bound our feet, and the Chinese people did not have the custom of binding feet in the past, but this bad habit has slowly spread since the Song Dynasty. ”

"The Song Dynasty just started to wrap its feet?!" Chen didn't believe it, "Girl, is this true!" ”

"It only started in the Song Dynasty, and foot binding is really harmful!"

Ding Huimin glanced down at her feet. Because of her father's doting, her little feet were hastily wrapped and often secretly teased.

"Amitabha!" Mother Liu sighed, "My little ancestor, Big Foot can't find a good mother-in-law!" ”

"I am a pair of big feet to Emperor Taizu Gao's Ma Niangniang, and I chose to recruit Niangniang in the past to have big feet." Megumi Tanaka disagreed, telling Chen and Liu's mother that the Ming court was about to issue a decree to 'prohibit foot binding and encourage foot binding', and officials must choose a woman with a foot or a woman who puts their feet when marrying a wife.

Mother Liu smiled and didn't speak again.

"If the little foot is crippled, it is a wasted person. Staying at home all day, relying on other people to live, is a complete parasite. ”

Several women in the carriage were wrapped in three-inch golden lotus, and Megumi Tanaka felt that it was a pity, "Bigfoot can travel all over the world, 'destroy the Tartars, and restore China', and Bigfoot can contribute to the revival of Huafu and contribute to society." ”

Just now Megumi Tanaka talked about big feet, Ding Huimin listened very pleasantly, she was very envious of having a pair of big feet, she could live an unrestrained life. However, she felt very uncomfortable about the so-called Chinese revival, so she blurted out, "What kind of Chinese revival revolution is clearly a lie." ”

Although Ding Huimin is only a ten-year-old child, she is very smart, she learned to read and write with Ding Yuejian early, read a lot of miscellaneous books, and is very assertive.

Megumi Tanaka was furious and blurted out, "Yaga! ”

"Little Ancestor, if you harm the whole family, there will be no one to collect your father's body!"

Chen was so anxious that tears were about to fall, she regretted that she should let her daughter learn more about female popularity, instead of following her husband Ding Yuejian all day long, what knowledge and knowledge she grows.

"Captain Tian, what's wrong?" The warriors who were driving the cart did not know what was happening, so they hurriedly stopped the ox cart and asked Megumi Tanaka.

Zhang Yimao, who was behind the convoy, also took a few steps and caught up.

"It's okay, keep going." Tanaka Hui's mind has calmed down, she glanced at Ding Huimin, because of Chen's obstruction, Ding Huimin was biting her lip stubbornly at this time.

"Do you think you're brave like this? Fortunately, I am a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, pay attention to 'benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith', and will not kill people indiscriminately, otherwise you will harm the whole family. ”

Although Ding Huimin's legs trembled a little, she still had words in her mouth, "Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving Dan to take care of the sweat." ”

"Stay in the sweat, that's also the biography of the second minister."

Tanaka Hui sneered and told Ding Huimin and Chen about the Ten Days of Yangzhou, the Three Massacres of Jiading, the Massacre of Suzhou, and the massacres in Sichuan and Liangguang committed by the Manchus.

"Is that really the case?!" Although Ding Huimin has some knowledge, she has never heard of these things, "Mother Liu, aren't you from Yangzhou?" Yangzhou has had such things happen! ”

Mother Liu had heard some bits and pieces before, and she said vaguely, "The entry of the Qing people into the customs is the destiny of heaven, how can there be immortals in the change of dynasty!" I think that Kangxi also went to Yangzhou to worship the heroic spirit of the Shi Pavilion Department. ”

Tanaka Huixing's eyes widened, "Ten days in Yangzhou, three massacres in Jiading, and ten thousand people in Dinghai are all in one domain, these are the blood and tears of the Han people!" Tens of millions of lives, how can this be covered up by a sentence of destiny! ”

"Amitabha!" When Liu Ma heard that so many people had died, she was startled, recited the Buddha, and stopped talking.

Although Ding Huimin is smart, she is still a ten-year-old girl after all. Thinking about so many white bones, she felt a little sick to her stomach, but Ding Huimin was still unconvinced, "Tens of millions of lives? Are there so many? ”

"The Manchurian Tatars entered the customs and killed countless people, and even the official household records of the Qing court showed that nearly 15 million Han Chinese were slaughtered."

Megumi Tanaka unceremoniously reprimanded Ding Huimin, "As a Japanese, I also know loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness. Although we Japanese are far away in the East, we also belong to the bloodline of China, and we are all willing to do our own meager help for the rejuvenation of China. And you? Are you still not Han? The Han family was ruled by the Tatars, and you were indifferent at all? You just want to work for the Manchurian Tartars like that? ”

Megumi Tanaka worked as a squad leader in the barracks, she learned political theory well, and her mouth was also very powerful, and she reprimanded Ding Huimin with tears in her eyes, and her expression was also a little trance.

"This team leader is so powerful! I was moved. ”

Zhang Yimao followed the ox cart forward, and while listening to Megumi Tanaka's words, he sincerely admired Megumi Tanaka's high level of political thought.

At this time, the convoy was not far from Zhuqian Port. From a distance, people saw a landing craft coming from the sea and slowly sailing into the bamboo trench harbor.

Zhang Yimao raised his voice and shouted, "Brothers, Zhuqian Harbor is ahead, let's sing a song!" ”

As he spoke, he said, "The flowers of May are blooming in the fields. ”

Melodious singing suddenly resounded in the convoy.

"The flowers of May, blooming on the edge of the fields,

Flowers cover the blood of the heroes,

To save this dying nation,

They fought tenaciously and stubbornly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”

The family members on the ox cart also hummed along with them. Since the Ming army entered the city, this song has often been sung in the loudspeaker, and the people in the city have long been too familiar to be familiar with it.

The team soon arrived at the port of Zhujiao, by which time the landing craft had already docked and the landing hatch had been opened.

After getting out of the ox cart, someone in the family immediately became surprised, "Look! This is a boat with a square head, the bow can also be opened, and opening is a springboard~~"

The landing craft is specially here to transport personnel and materials to Hsinchu County, and on the way back, I will take the families of these dead people in the green camp by the way.

Tang Hua walked out of the cabin with Bai Zihou and the others, all of whom were wearing improved Ming official clothes.

The improved version of the official uniform has not changed much from the traditional Ming official uniform, the only difference is that the hem and sleeves have been shortened, and it is just more refreshing to walk and do things.

saw Tang Hua wearing a black veil on his head and a cyan official robe, walking proudly in front. Zhang Yimao immediately ran over and saluted the report.

"What kind of official is this Ming army?"

Seeing Tang Hua's style, and then looking at the green robe Tang Hua was wearing, these green camp family members were all guessing her official qualities.

Ding Huimin has read "History of the Ming Dynasty? Yufu Zhi", knowing the official system of the Ming Dynasty, the first to fourth grade scarlet robe, the fifth to seventh grade green robe, and the eighth and ninth grade green robe. She glanced at the complement on Tang Hua's chest, which was embroidered with a white pheasant of the fifth grade, the same grade as her father.

Thinking of his father, Ding Huimin felt a little sour in his heart, such a loving father, if he said no, it would be gone, and the Ming army even wanted to write him into the biography of the second minister. Erchen, that's the biography of a traitor, could it be that my father also became a traitor! Megumi Tanaka's words circled around Ding Huimin's little head, and she felt a little dizzy.

At this time, there was a family member with sharp eyes, "You see, the Ming army official has a round face, and he doesn't have a beard under his chin, it seems to be a woman." ”

Ding Huimin was taken aback, she quickly raised her head, ah! That's right, the five-grade official does look like a woman.

Some people also whispered, "Maybe it's still a eunuch." ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" This muttering was heard by Megumi Tanaka, and she immediately reprimanded, "This female official is a cadre of the Ming Dynasty, and the official worships the five products." ”

"This woman can also be an official, a big official?!" Ding Hui was particularly surprised. Ding Huimin has been smart since she was a child, and people around her always say that she is a son-in-law, and her father Ding Yuejian often touches her head and sighs, "It's a pity that you are just a son-in-law, not a real son!" No matter how capable he is, he can't glorify the lintel of Ding's house. ”

"A woman can hold up half the sky!" Megumi Tanaka said proudly, "The Ming Dynasty selects officials, meritocracy, regardless of gender. In the past, Qin Taibao was able to seal the marquis, and now there are 5,000 people in the Ming Dynasty, and the commander who commands them is a woman. ”

Megumi Tanaka talked about Lindejia's eyebrows, and she also dreamed that she could become a commander in command of thousands of troops.

Tang Hua, Bai Zihou and others brought 200,000 yuan of silver dollars and auxiliary coins from Keelung, as well as a batch of official clothing and other materials customized from Huafu Foreign Bank.

Tang Hua, Bai Zihou and others stood on the shore, directing the soldiers to load and unload the goods. The 200,000 yuan of coins weighed several tons, and boxes were all carried into the ox carts, and clothing and other supplies were loaded onto the carts behind.

Ding Huimin felt very envious when she saw their radiant and steady steps, "Sister Tian, are there many female officials like you in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

"At least a thousand like me. Daming has a women's school, which specializes in teaching astronomy, geography, humanities and history. Seeing Ding Huimin's mouth become well-behaved, Tanaka Hui was very happy, she felt that the surname Tian and the name Zhong Hui seemed to be good, which was more like a Chinese person than the surname Tanaka.

"Girls' Academy?!"

Megumi Tanaka stretched out her hand and gently helped Ding Huimin comb her hair, "Put your feet down!" A woman like you who has an assertive and pursuing mind should go to the women's academy to study, and she will definitely be successful when she learns. ”

The landing craft unloaded the cargo and carried Ding Yuejian's family and other families of the dead of the Green Battalion and turned around and returned to Monga.
