Chapter Forty-Eight: A New Dynasty
The earthquake did not have the slightest impact on Qingshan County, and although the imperial court was in turmoil, many local governors did not participate in it, so that many towns and towns were spared.
However, there are exceptions, even if you don't participate, it is not easy to live, such as Quzhou and other disaster-stricken state capitals.
Originally, the flood had not been resolved, and I was anxious to wait for the imperial court to allocate funds to resettle the victims, wait for the spring plowing of improved farm tools, and wait for many arrangements to ......, but the sudden earthquake and turmoil made all the rescue and resettlement be put on hold indefinitely, making the originally rich water town a nightmare.
Qingshan County and Village have entered the height of summer.
Zhao Jiao didn't know where Cai Dacheng was, all she could do was to assist Ercheng and take care of the family.
Since March, all the affairs of the Chen family have been arranged, and there are not many things that need to be handled by Steward Chen personally, after all, most of the industries have stopped due to the disaster, and he has been idle.
But he is an idle person, and he will find something to do when he has nothing to do, so the Cai family has become the first choice.
Every day, as soon as I have time, I go to Cai's house to help, and I follow the old man Song all day long to point this and that, and rush to do it when I see it, so diligent that people think that he is the big housekeeper of the Cai family.
And when he learned that the imperial court was in turmoil and Quzhou and other places were unable to help, he was even more eager to help the Cai family with his heart and lungs.
If it weren't for the young master to stop it, Cai Dacheng's ancestral hall might have been built by him!
He is grateful to the Cai family, but his own ability is so great, he can only do what he can.
Old man Song has to blow his beard and stare at every day, no matter what method he uses, he can't get rid of that nasty ghost! can only retreat to the position of second housekeeper aggrievedly, after all, his level is indeed too far behind Steward Chen!
Zhao Jiao thinks it's funny every day to watch two people who are more than 100 years old together, and she is also happy to watch the show.
We often meet, and she can also learn a lot from Steward Chen.
"Mother, mother......" Xiao Budian came back, and his loud voice could be heard from afar.
A one-and-a-half-year-old child can walk steadily.
This guy sticks to his brother every day when he is fine. He followed his brother when he went to school, and he stood on the side while his brother sat in class.
At first, I was worried that he was naughty and troublesome, but people were very well-behaved, and he sat on the ground when he couldn't stand in a class, and when he was tired, he lay down, and he couldn't hug him, so he had to prepare a thick cushion for him at Bao'er's feet, but he didn't expect him to be able to last for more than half a month.
At the end of the hour, it should have just finished class, and the little guy must be hungry when he comes back.
I was hungry before I thought about looking for her, and if she didn't answer, he could immediately change someone!
It's really in response to the old saying, the child can't help the mother, and if you have milk, you are the mother!
She felt that this mother's job was going to be lost! Because this child sleeps at night to find his brother, dresses to find his father, and eats to find a cook, only when he is dirty does he think of her, what an embarrassment!
Ercheng happened to come in from the outside, and saw that Xiao Budian was climbing the threshold, and took it into the house.
"Mother is hungry!" The little one pounced when he saw his mother.
Zhao Jiao looked at the young son on the legs, "Mother is not hungry!" ”
"Mother is hungry... Hungry! "The little one is in a hurry!
At this time, Sister-in-law Song was coming in with a pastry, and the little guy was originally standing with his back to the door, but when he smelled the familiar fragrance, he immediately turned around, and immediately kicked Zhao Jiao after seeing the pastry brought by Sister-in-law Song.
"This kid! Don't miss home in the future! Zhao Hui laughed angrily.
The two butlers took the opportunity to leave.
Sister-in-law Song also retreated after giving the pastries.
In this courtyard, don't go to the master if you have nothing to do, especially when Cai Dacheng is at home.
"Brother Dacheng has been gone for so long, and I don't know where he is now." Zhao Jiao sighed.
Ercheng: "No news means it's safe, and now it's chaotic outside!" ”
This emperor is replaced, and it is definitely not something that can be done in a moment or two.
Zhao Jiao: "This kid can't eat slowly!" "Walk up to him and wipe his chin with a paddle.
Zhao Jiao is really speechless, this little broken child has been anxious since he was a child, and he has always eaten and swallowed dates.
"......" the little guy said he couldn't hear it!
Zhao Jiao: "I said that you are a father, the child can't afford to have a name, and he is called every day!" Can't give him a nice name? ”
Ercheng: "Yes! Isn't it Boa? ”
Zhao Jiao rolled her eyes, her two sons were all treasurers!
Bao'er's scientific name is Zhao Lesheng, and his younger brother must have a similar name, right? Is there anyone who is so unenthusiastic about children's names?
Ercheng: "How is Lebao?" It's so screaming! ”
Zhao Jiao: "......"
Ercheng: "Or the lady?" You know what I'm capable of. ”
Even if he can get up, he can't afford it, the lady worked so hard to give birth to them, of course she got up! If it's nice and ugly, do the boys dare to oppose it?
Zhao Jiao didn't know what he meant, thinking that he really wouldn't get up, so she said the "Zhen" she had thought about before.
She hopes that her son will have a happy life and a smooth career in the future.
In front of outsiders, let's call Brother Zhen, my own family is still small, little baby, little guy screams kinder!
"Second master, madam!" Old man Song shouted outside.
Ercheng estimated that there was something to do, so he was busy letting him in.
Old man Song didn't go in, but Sister-in-law Song came in, saying that there was a visit, and it was the county master and his wife.
The husband and wife looked at each other, not knowing what these two meant.
Zhao Jiao got up and told Sister-in-law Song to take Mrs. Chen to the main hall of the backyard, and after saying that, she returned first through the back door.
and Ercheng will entertain the county master.
Old man Song was notified and introduced the county order into the court.
Zhao Jiao had quickly changed her hospitality clothes and sat in the hall waiting.
In less than half an hour, Sister-in-law Song led people in.
The two sides saluted each other, and Mrs. Chen immediately congratulated and bowed.
Zhao Jiao had a lawsuit in her head, and she didn't know what she was congratulating on, so she helped people up and sat down with the guests.
Sister-in-law Song stepped back after serving tea, and the two talked politely.
Mrs. Chen is not very old, she is in her twenties and thirties, and her face is gentle and amiable.
After greeting each other, Zhao Jiao led to the topic: "I don't know what you congratulate on this hot day?" "It's almost noon, and the sun is hot.
Mrs. Chen replied respectfully: "General Chang Lao, with his son, General Cai and others, has led troops to overthrow the faint monarch Chen Jiang and establish a new dynasty, with the country name - Rong.
General Cai because of his courage and good fighting, for the overthrow of the decadent Chen Dynasty made great contributions, by the old general Chang named the prince of the country, it is estimated that soon the grandfather of the country will be able to return to the hometown to take his wife to Beijing to live a rich life, the courtiers here congratulations to you! ”
