Chapter 285: The Tyrant Didn't Say I Was a Scumbag (49)
With just a glance, a personal maid understood, and immediately called a guard to give a few orders.
The guards pulled out their horses and ran to the farmland, and cursed viciously at the caretaker, who was sweating profusely and licking his face and smiling, and hurriedly ordered someone to drag the old farmer down by the legs.
dragged to a remote corner of the official road where the cry could not be heard, and then whipped and beaten.
The maid came back and chuckled: "Niang Niang, don't worry, I won't quarrel with you anymore." β
Ruan Qingmeng bowed his head in satisfaction.
King Heng watched everything happen in silence, and suddenly hesitated a little, and said in a low voice: "Qingmeng, do you think that Linwuhou is indeed a little too extravagant?" β
Ruan Qingmeng glanced at him differently, and then smiled: "Are you jealous?" β
"How could I be jealous of him! I just think he's really crazy! Before he fought with others for wealth, he used brocade to make a walking obstacle that grew for fifty miles; The light in Jinguyuan is too dark at night, and the candles in his whole car are used as firewood; The color of the wall is dull, with pepper as mud and red stone grease mud wall; And the piglets who were breastfed this timeβ"
Ruan Qingmeng said contemptuously: "You're not jealous? If you are reluctant to spend this money, don't stop me from going to his feast. β
"I just wonder if it's really necessary, and only this behavior can show the magnanimity of the wealthy......"
Ruan Qingmeng was furious: "Of course it's the only way!" The luxury of the wealthy family, isn't it because Zhong Ming eats and squanders his money? You're really getting stingy! β
The sneer on the corner of her lips became more and more sarcastic: "If we can't get by, we will leave directly, and his position as Mrs. Hou will always be reserved for me!" β
With that, she threw King Heng out of the car and ordered someone to speed up and leave first.
The general guards stood in place with King Heng.
King Heng sighed irritably, and when he looked up, he saw the tenants in the official fields fighting locusts, and some of them were staggering and dragging wooden buckets full of water to water the ground, and because the speed was too slow, they were angrily scolded and driven away by the guards.
King Heng kicked the ground in annoyance.
"Get on the horse and go home!"
There was no snow this winter, and the weather was quite warm.
The celebrities in the Southern Jin Dynasty family were very dissatisfied, because it didn't snow, they had no snow to enjoy, and they couldn't chant poems and drink for fun, which was really unpleasant.
But the poor were happy.
If it's too cold in winter, they have to spend a lot of money to make thick jackets, which are really too expensive, and I'm afraid that one piece will hurt the family, but if they don't do it, someone in the family will definitely freeze to death.
If it doesn't snow this year, you don't need to make thick jackets, and you won't freeze to death, and you can save the rest of your money to buy more food and not go hungry.
But when they bought grain, they mentioned it to the farmers, but the farmers shook their heads and looked melancholy: "It's not snowing, it's warm, the people are warm, and the insects are warm...... If the eggs don't freeze to death, they will definitely grow a lot next year. β
"Let's talk about next year, now we don't freeze to death, it's enough!"
No one cares whether the bugs are bugs or not, and when spring arrives, the long-awaited rain finally falls.
As far as the eye can see, the mountains in the distance seem to be blocked behind the rain curtain, the fields are hazy, the crystal raindrops splash on the surface of the lake, and the crystal clear and translucent flowers bloom, which is beautiful.
Flowers, plants, and grains have been drunk with water and have begun to grow vigorously, as if in a few days, the green seedlings have also grown a lot.
The happy peasant went to the field, excitedly admiring the malt that poked his head out, and could not help but reach out and touch it, when he was at his happiest when something suddenly struck him on the forehead.
Surprised, he reached out and took the thing that was still crawling on his face, and looked inβ
It's a small locust.
