The old woman smiled bitterly and said, "Where is the wife of an official who enjoys happiness, but she has some food and clothing." My son, who was devoted to the people, received some money, and gave it to the people. If it weren't for him, my two grandchildren would ......."

At this, the old woman's eyes were slightly red, and she did not want to say any more.

Yingyun also poured a bowl of water for her, and said, "Now in this world, there are really not many good officials like your son, why are you still unhappy, mother-in-law?" As soon as I entered the city, I heard that the county magistrate here is dedicated to the benefit of the people, and he is a rare clean official, so it is your mother-in-law, your son, right? ”

The old woman was a little relieved, but also a little hateful, so that Yingyun couldn't see through her mind for a while.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Yingyun said, "It's really your mother-in-law, your son!" This is how you teach your ......"

The old woman sighed and said, "What's the good, he can't even protect his home, what's the use of protecting the people?" ”

"Why do you say that?"

The old woman was suffering from having no one to talk to, and at this time she recalled her memories and said sadly: "That year, my two grandsons contracted a serious disease, and it was because he gave all the money in the family to the poor that he could not raise money for a while, so he delayed his illness. My daughter-in-law borrowed some silver from the villagers and went to the pharmacy in the city to buy medicine, but my hard-working grandchildren still couldn't be saved......

Looking at the old woman's face full of regret and sadness, Yingyun couldn't bear it, she couldn't say that it was wrong for the county order to forget her selfishness because of her duties, but after all, this family was destroyed in his hands, no wonder the old woman was always haunted.

The old woman secretly wiped her tears and said, "I know that I am a woman and I don't know what righteousness is, so I want my family to be safe." The two grandsons left, and the daughter-in-law blamed him for not caring about the family, and couldn't think about it for a while, so he threw himself into the river......"

Yingyun sighed in her heart, she didn't expect such a story behind it, and comforted: "Mother-in-law, don't be sad, your son's exploits are obvious to all, and now I heard that the emperor has come to Haining County in person, I will definitely praise him, and your life will gradually get better." ”

The old woman wiped away her tears and smiled reluctantly, "Thank you for your good words." 202 e-books

Yingyun got up and said, "Mother-in-law, we still have to hurry, so I won't bother you." ”

"Okay, you guys go slowly." The old woman staggered to her feet.

Yingyun was about to say goodbye to her, but she heard a wild cat calling in the corner, and climbed up to the wine jar, meowing and meowing.

The old woman said: "The city is blistered, and there have been a lot of wild cats in the alley recently, so be careful." ”

"Granny Xie reminds." Ying Yun glanced at the gray-black wild cat, its eyes were like glass beads, bulging, and a little scary. It jumped near the jar, presumably foraging, but the jar was empty, and it came home several times.

The jar placed above it was almost knocked down by it, and it staggered and made a crashing sound.

"Wushun, you go and drive the cat away," Ying Yun looked at the old woman worriedly, and said, "In case the cat breaks through the wine jar, the mother-in-law has bad eyes and feet, don't let the debris all over the yard cut her feet." ”

"Huh." Wushun received the order and immediately went to catch the cat.

The old woman said gratefully, "You are kind, these wine jars have been there for many years, and they are all things that no one wants, and Desheng still does not let them sell." ”

Ying Yun smiled: "That's your son's thrift." ”

While he was talking, Wushun bent down and wanted to lift the wine jar, but he almost flashed his waist and sighed: "Alas, this empty jar is heavier than a full bottle of wine!" ”
