Chapter 2 Song Mei
"If you don't have an opinion, it's decided. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info old decay said in front, if someone is not willing to bring it up now, if this baby can help us to carry slaves in the future, it will be nothing for you to lose this lowly slave status, you continue to be your slaves. If the yang and yin are expelled from Mengjiazhuang in the future. Meng Taigong raised his voice and continued.
"We must obey the words of the Taigong. ”
Everyone shouted out in unison, and their faces invariably had an infinite yearning for the future.
Meng Taigong's words were even more effective for the people of Mengjiazhuang than the Holy Spirit Empress of the Central Unification Empire.
"Eagle, you go and make it clear to Song Mei now, tell her about Guangsheng's death and the decision of tonight's meeting, so that she doesn't have to think so much, raise this baby well, and the village will not treat her badly. ”
After the emergency elders' meeting, Meng Xiongying walked towards Meng Guangsheng's house with the baby in his arms. I will face Song Mei in a while, this aunt is the most beautiful and intelligent woman in the village, she is only twenty years old this year, but unfortunately she has become a widow. Although the Council of Elders decided to raise her baby with the strength of the whole village, Meng Xiongying's mood was very heavy.
Meng Guangsheng's home, to the southeast of Meng Zhuang's house, is a two-row five-room house with a small courtyard in front of the house. Although they are all slaves, Meng Guangsheng is very capable, and with a good daughter-in-law like Song Mei, their family is relatively wealthy in the village, and there are two maids in the family. Song Mei had just finished giving birth, and the midwives in the village had not left, the house was brightly lit, and everyone was eating in the front hall.
"I finally breathe a sigh of relief, the adults and children are safe, I have never seen such a difficult birth. Zhao Zhen ate and shook her head. Zhao Zhen is the granddaughter-in-law of Mrs. Meng, she is sixty-two years old this year, but she looks like she is less than forty, she is very capable, and she is the most famous midwife in Mengjiazhuang.
"Thank you Sister Zhao and all the ladies for your help, it's really hard for you, you eat more. Come on, eat more vegetables. Yahuan Xiaoshuang said smartly, diligently adding food to the midwives present.
It didn't take long for Meng Xiongying to arrive at Meng Guangsheng's house, and the altar was about three miles away.
"The owner is here, please sit in the house, everyone is eating, you can eat a little." Yahuan Xiaoyun, who was washing clothes in the front yard, stood up and greeted Meng Xiongying when he saw him enter the yard. took the baby in his hand and carried it into the back room. The child was taken away as soon as he was born, and her mother must have wanted to take a good look at him. Song Mei was lying on the bed in the back room, and the clever Xiaoyun went to find her with the child in her arms.
"Is it convenient for Song Mei to come out?" Meng Xiongying entered the front hall and sat down under the greeting of Xiaoshuang. He was asking Zhao Zhen. He knew that the woman's body was very weak after giving birth, so he wanted to confirm it through Zhao Zhen.
"Brother-in-law, are you done with the meeting? Before Zhao Zhen could reply, she heard Song Mei's voice coming from the back room. Song Mei is a smart person, she is a martial artist in the primary realm of Qin's state of mind, and she is also very clear about the situation of the baby, and she is also very confused. From the moment she carried the baby to the altar, her heart had been hanging, and when she learned that Meng Xiongying was coming, she couldn't wait to know the outcome of the elders' meeting.
In about a few minutes, Song Mei wore a goose yellow dress and hurriedly walked out of the back room. After giving birth, Song Mei's face was slightly pale, and her beautiful body was exquisitely curved, with a suffocating beauty. She saw Xiaoyun walking into the back room with the baby in her arms, so she took the child and hugged her in her arms, and then walked out of the front hall. Song Mei stood in front of Meng Xiongying, looking down at the child in her arms, her eyes full of pride as a mother.
"Song Mei, I brought you good news and bad news today. When Meng Xiongying saw Song Mei coming out, he said to Song Mei a little worriedly.
"Brother-in-law, say it, the little sister can bear it when the sky falls. In fact, Song Mei is more uneasy than anyone else now, she is very worried about her husband, but she is a very resolute person, so she does not show it.
"Guangsheng is gone, and he died in this tribal hunt. Meng Xiongying said with difficulty.
"Ah......", "Oh......" Song Ju was stunned, and the bowl in his hand fell to the ground. "My hard-working sister...... Song Ju loves this seventh sister the most, and she couldn't help crying.
"Sister, don't cry. The seventh sister can withstand it. Song Mei was surprisingly calm, and said lightly: "Guangsheng is a hunter, and Seventh Sister has always had this preparation in her heart, but this day came too early." ”
Meng Xiongying was a little surprised by this aunt's reaction, and couldn't help but look at this aunt again.
After Song Ju calmed down a little, Meng Xiongying continued: "The Council of Elders has decided to devote the strength of the whole village to raise your baby, Taigong thinks that this baby is a wizard who practices martial arts, and it is the hope of our village. Although the baby's martial soul mark has not been opened, Taigong believes that there is no sacrifice, so he is preparing for the Lichun Festival, which is now October, and it is not far from the time of the sacrifice. The Council of Elders also decided to send four more girls to take care of your daily life to ensure the healthy growth of your baby. As for the silver, you don't have to worry, the village will send you a thousand silver coins every month, and you will support it until the baby becomes a talent. ”
"Thank you, princess! Thank you, brother-in-law! Thank you for the care of the elders! Guangsheng Quanxia will be grateful!" Song Mei knew very well what Meng Xiongying meant, and although her heart was sad, she was also excited.
Because it is a slave class, Mengjiazhuang is very poor, the annual tax in the village is very heavy, and it is necessary to pay tribute to the tribe, the spars obtained by men, women and children are basically the lowest grade, each low-grade spar can be sold for a hundred silver coins, and other animal skins and other things are worthless because the grade is too low. After paying taxes and paying tribute to the tribe, there was not much money left. Although Mengjiazhuang is surrounded by mountains and there are thousands of brute beasts, it is only possible to harvest spars if they hunt the fierce beasts above the second-order brute beast king. A fierce beast of the second-order Brute King level, its combat power is equivalent to that of a high-level realm martial artist in the Qin Mind Realm, and it can be imagined how difficult it is for Mengjiazhuang to obtain the silver taels.
"In the future, in addition to eating your milk, the baby must drink the blood of the spirit beast every day, and the village will provide you with fresh spirit beast blood every day. Meng Xiongying looked at the calm Song Mei, his heart was a little calm, and he said slowly: "Tomorrow the village will send the four maid rings over, do you have any requirements?"
"Little sister doesn't have anything to say, so let the elders arrange it. It's just that the baby is pitiful, he didn't have a father before he was born, and he couldn't give him a name, brother-in-law, you are the owner of the village, you can help the baby choose a name. Song Mei hugged the baby and looked at Meng Xiongying eagerly.
wanted to name the baby, which suddenly made Meng Xiongying stunned for a moment. "It's called Meng Haotian, this baby is valued by the Taigong, and it pins the hopes of the whole Zhuang people, and I also hope that he will be extraordinary and become a person who is on par with the sky. ”
"Thank you, brother-in-law! This name is good! The slave family hopes that he can achieve something when he grows up and live up to the expectations of the whole village!" Song Mei's eyes were a little moist, she was still enduring it, and she couldn't let the tears fall at this time.
It was late at night, and everyone didn't stay long before leaving, and the house was quiet all at once. Song Mei's tears couldn't be suppressed anymore, and they fell with a bang.
Seeing Song Mei's tears, the two Yahuan Xiaoshuang and Xiaoyun didn't know what to do, and then shed tears.
Song Mei is a very strong person, but her man is gone, and the child died before he was born, this child is so pitiful that he can't even see his father's face. Thinking of this, she was very sad. However, she is strong after all, and she must cheer up and raise the child well. Thinking of Zhuangli's infinite sustenance for the child, she felt so stressed. Seeing the two little girls around her who were in tears and at a loss, Song Mei wiped the tears on her face, and instructed the two little girls to set up a simple mourning hall in the front hall, erected a spiritual position, and the spiritual plaque was a simple wooden board, Song Mei personally wrote the text of "Husband Meng Guangsheng's spiritual seat". The font is delicate and dignified, and it looks quite skillful.
After feeding the child, the child fell into a deep sleep. This child is very well-behaved, except for being slapped and crying by Zhao Zhen when he was born, he has never cried again.
Seeing the child's sweet and sleeping appearance, Song Mei's thoughts couldn't stop.
She is the daughter of the owner of Songjiazhuang, she has been smart and clever since she was a child, she is very beautiful, and she opened the martial soul mark of the six products of Qiantian at the age of three, and her father loves her very much. Her father taught her to learn literature and martial arts, and she has a high level of understanding, whether it is literature or martial arts, she learns quite quickly. She is the youngest child in the family, Song Ju is the eldest sister, and the second brother Song Jian was admitted to the army of the Central Unified Empire to join the army, but there has been no news since she left, and the family thinks that the second brother is more than lucky. Several of the other sisters married into nearby villages.
Her father died unexpectedly when she was twelve years old, because there was no man in the family, and the family declined within a few years. Under the introduction of her eldest sister Song Ju, at the age of eighteen, she married Meng Guangsheng.
Songjiazhuang, like Mengjiazhuang, also belonged to the slave class. Meng Guangsheng is an orphan, but she is a notoriously good hunter, and she is very satisfied with marrying a young talent like Meng Guangsheng. Unexpectedly, before the child was born, her husband left her. She knew very well how important men were to a family, and now that her man was dead, she began to feel a little hesitant. If it weren't for her brother-in-law Meng Xiongying who brought her the decision of the Council of Elders, maybe she would have collapsed.
Song Mei changed into a plain dress and stood in front of her husband's mourning hall, constantly adding offerings to the brazier. The two maids also changed into filial piety clothes, and the head of the family passed away, and they were also quite sad. Without the head of the house, they would have starved to death.
This night seemed quite long, except for the manic period before Meng Haotian was born, the surroundings of Mengjiazhuang were simply terrifyingly quiet, as if they were mourning for Meng Guangsheng. Song Mei and the two maids didn't speak, and stayed quietly all night.
Song Mei was actually not calm this night, the man died, and she had to support this family. Meng Haotian is her hope. Although there was a decision of the Council of Elders, there were so many uncertainties that she couldn't help but think a little further. She had prepared for the worst for the difficulties ahead, no matter what, she would train Meng Haotian to be the best person she could be.
She is a martial artist in the primary realm of Qin's state of mind, and she usually reads a lot of books, she knows very well that her son is a thousand-bone divine body, and he has a martial soul imprint as soon as he is born, and her son must be a martial arts wizard who is rare to see in a thousand years. As for why her son's martial soul mark was not opened, she did have some worries, but she finally firmly believed that her son's martial soul mark would definitely be opened, and her son would definitely become her pride.
At dawn, Song Mei looked at her son who was still sleeping, and her resolute face had a bright color. For a martial artist of her level, not sleeping all night would not make her feel tired, even though she had just given birth to a child. She stood up, called the two maids according to the life pattern she had thought of, and began to plan her family life.
Under Meng Xiongying's arrangement, the decisions of the Council of Elders soon began to be implemented. Soon after dawn, the eldest sister Song Ju brought four clever and delicate maid rings over. These four Yahuan, like Xiaoyun and Xiaoshuang, are all smart people, they are fortunate enough to open the martial soul imprint, have practiced martial arts, and are intermediate realm martial artists in the Fengchu Realm.
Meng Kun, the martial arts captain of Mengjiazhuang, also sent fresh spirit beast blood and brute beast meat. In addition to giving the child to drink, the extra spirit beast blood can also give the child a spiritual blood bath. The Spirit Blood Bath is too valuable for cultivators, and by absorbing the essence of the spirit beast, it greatly enhances the physique of the body. Meng Kun also sent a thousand silver coins.
Seeing this, Song Mei's heart was very excited, she knew very well that no one could enjoy the spiritual blood bath whether it was Mengjiazhuang or Songjiazhuang, and for a slave village like Mengjiazhuang, it was rare to be able to drink some spirit beast blood at ordinary times. You must know that the blood of these spirit beasts is at least obtained from spirit beasts above the level of the first-order barbarian beast king. The combat power of a first-order beast king level beast is equivalent to that of a Feng Chu Realm Great Perfection Realm martial artist, and the beast king is often accompanied by a large number of beasts, and it is not easy to hunt such a beast king.
Meng Kun is a high-level realm martial artist in the Qin Mood Realm, and his combat power is second only to Meng Taigong and Meng Xiongying, the owner of the village, in Mengjiazhuang. He explained to Song Mei in detail the relevant matters to be paid attention to in the spiritual blood bath, and after speaking, he went to the village martial arts arena to take the children to practice. The eldest sister Song Ju stayed, and she introduced Song Mei to the four rings she had just brought, they were called Chunhua, Xia He, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei. Seeing their four sisters, Xiaoyun and Xiaoshuang were the happiest, and they soon became acquainted. Song Mei likes the new four girls very much, and her mood is naturally getting better.
