Chapter 146: The Chicken Talks to the Duck
readx;
A wooden house was tossed down, and Begonia felt exhausted. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoIn the past, there were tools, and it was relatively easy to do. Don't talk about any knives now, not even the swords you used to use.
Doe looked at the wooden house with a look of satisfaction in his eyes. Begonia's ability is very strong, and the size and length of the wood used are about the same, and she can't do this alone. The four trees that play the most supporting role are also well chosen.
The gap between the woods, which made Doy a little dissatisfied. However, this is unavoidable under the existing conditions, and can only be supplemented separately.
Looking at the palm leaves, he called the begonia lying on the wooden board and said, "Let's take advantage of the fact that it hasn't rained yet, and pick up some palm leaves." But before we do that, we have to find a place to get acquainted with it. ā
It's the fourth day, and I'm probably eating better these days, and Du Yi's body is much better. The meat of the jumping rabbit is Du Yi's favorite food. It's just that Du Yi, who is already sticky on his body, can't stand it anymore, and can't go to the beach to swim, so it will only become more and more uncomfortable the more he washes.
Begonia thought of the leaves on the roof, and knew that Doe said that it was for waterproofing, so she nodded happily. Now there is nothing, there is a wooden house to live in, and it is necessary to make sure that the house can still live before the rain. Since palm leaves can be waterproof, it is also good to have more.
"Well, I'm very uncomfortable too. Are you sure you want to come with me, Yiyi, why don't I go and see first, you stay here. If I find it, I'll come back and take you with me?"
Begonia was reluctant to follow Du Yi and walk around on the desert island. Because even she wasn't sure what would happen to her.
"It's okay, I'll go with you, I'm much better. By the way, begonias, let's pick two coconuts, in case of thirst or something, you can quench your thirst, and you can't find water to drink. ā
If Doe thinks there is anything on this desert island that has the most to offer, it is the coconut. These coconuts have no regularity at all, as if they are being blown by the wind, and they feel like they are born wherever they are.
This was the first time that Doe had walked with Begonia into the barren mountains, and coconut trees could be seen everywhere. Of course, there are occasional fluttering pheasants, all of which are beaten down by begonias. Look at Begonia's hands, aren't they just carrying two or three pheasants?
Doe felt like he had walked for a long, long time, as if he hadn't gotten out of the woods. After a while, he said, "Begonia, you take me up the tree, and I'll see the direction of this terrain." The higher the better, and I want to be able to see the whole picture. We can't go without a purpose, it's a waste of time. ā
Haitang felt that she must be stupid, and she didn't even figure out such a simple truth. But since Doe is going up to the tree to see it, let's go over there. Then she found what she thought was the tallest and largest tree, and jumped up with Doe.
Doe stood on the trunk of the tree, holding the begonia tightly in his hands. Looking at the whole island that seems to be covered with forests, I am a little speechless. There are trees everywhere, I can't see clearly, where and where, how can she find it?
He looked up at the branches above and said, "Begonia, can you go up some more?" ā
The picture that Du Yi saw, Begonia naturally saw it. He glanced at what he was stepping on, then at the branches above, and nodded when he thought about the bearing. As long as she leaned her weight against the trunk and hugged Doy tightly, it shouldn't be a big problem.
The two of them walked up another branch, and when their vision widened, Doe looked carefully at a few places where there were few trees, and then frowned. With so many trees, it is impossible to have no rivers, and it seems that these rivers are not exposed.
"Begonia, let's go towards that mountain, there are many trees here, and it is an island, surrounded by the sea, and there must be a lot of rain all year round. At the foot of the mountain, there will be a river. ā
"Good!" Begonia also wanted to take a bath quickly, and looked at the many bushes below, glanced back in the direction of his wooden house, and led Doe to the direction of the foot of the mountain.
It's been a hot day, and I've been busy for a few days, and my clothes have long been glued to my body, and it's uncomfortable. Take a bath, she desperately needs a bath.
Du Yi looked at the scene in front of him, skimmed them one by one, and seemed to hear the sound of a tinkling sound of water flowing in his ears, and hurriedly said: "Begonia, you wait, listen to the sound of water flowing?"
When the begonia heard the current, he stopped and listened. When he heard the sound of water flowing by, his eyes widened instantly: "There really is, it should be in the southeast direction!"
There is water, which is stronger than anything else. In such a hot weather, the clothes on the body were soaked in seawater before, and after the water evaporated and dried, salt particles formed. Because of the busyness, the sweat wets the clothes again, the salt particles melt, and then seeps into the skin, and it feels hot and uncomfortable.
The two of them walked for a long time, and after picking up one shrub after another, they saw the crescent lake appear in front of them. I looked at the source carefully, and in the direction of the northeast, I don't know if it was left over from the mountain range. However, the water of the lake is clear, and there are a few stones downstream of the lake, and when the water passes by, it makes a rattling and tinkling sound.
"Yiyi, you stand with this stick first, and I'll see if there's anything else in the water. Because Dui had no kung fu and was pregnant, she was afraid that there would be some water snakes in the lake that would scare Doyi, so she decided to go down and have a look.
"Okay, be careful, if not, let's just wash down there. Doe looked at the lake, and there were palms and plantains. When the time has come to wash the clothes, you can cover them with these leaves before they are roasted over the fire. Anyway, she and Begonia are both women, and they are in such a place, so they don't have to worry too much.
The lake is quite deep, and the begonia did not enter the center of the lake, but looked at the edge. After finding that there was nothing dangerous, he beckoned to Du Yi: "Yiyi, you come over to wash it first, and I'll help you watch it." ā
Doe pulled two large banana leaves and placed them on the shore before stepping into the water. This is the first time she has bathed in the past few days. The moment I soaked in the water, I felt that all my pores were open.
looked at Begonia, took off the coat on his body, put it in his hand and rubbed it again. Seeing this, Begonia reached out and took it. Doe buried his hair in the water, there was no shampoo, just wash it, and the hair stinked.
Then he played for a while, and saw that the begonias were also being cleaned, so he got up and walked towards the shore. After she tore off the banana leaves and hid in the jungle on the side, she stepped into the water again after making a circle around her breasts and buttocks.
She has to wash these personal things by herself, no, she should wait for the begonias to wash them, and then wash them. After the banana leaves touch the water, they stick to the body, and they are cold and cold, so it is not pleasant.
Begonia blushed when she saw Du Yi's appearance. But when I think of clothes that have not been changed, I can't always wear such a piece, and I understand. When he got ashore, he also learned from Doe and circled himself.
If Doe had asked her to surround this before, she wouldn't have dared to kill her. But now that her clothes were all wet, and no one was found here, she reluctantly agreed.
"Yiyi, wait for me to dry this coat, you put it on the outside, there are trees everywhere, and there are many mosquitoes. After Haitang finished speaking, he dried the coats of the two of them with the inside, put them on the shore, and took the personal belongings and washed them.
The two of them washed in the lake for a long time, and after they had a good time, they went ashore and put on their coats and went in the direction of the cabin.
Unbeknownst to the two, when they were far away, a man emerged from the center of the lake. After spitting out the reeds in his mouth, the man looked at the two women who walked away, his eyes flashing with doubt. There have never been such fair-skinned women in this tribe, where did they come from?
Both of them are beautiful, one looks cold and noble, and the other looks crisp and neat. Where did they come from and what they were doing here?
After the man thought so, he followed the two from a distance and came all the way to the beach. When I saw the cabin, my eyes widened with surprise. They have never had this wooden house before, and can there be people living on this beach?
Begonia is sensitive, and after noticing that someone is observing his every move, he approaches Du Yi and says, "Yiyi, you will hold that wooden stick in a moment." We're followed by something, presumably people, I'll go see what's going on, be careful yourself. ā
"Okay, you should be careful, too. If it's a person, it's the best. Let's ask where this is, can we borrow a boat and let us go back?"
Begonia nodded, and turned back to walk towards the bushes. The man knew that he was being seen, so he simply walked out generously and said, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
Begonia saw that it was a man, and before she had time to be happy, she suddenly heard what the man said, and when she didn't understand it at all, she was completely dumbfounded.
Seeing Begonia's actions, the man became a little impatient and continued: "Who are you guys and what are you doing here. And this wooden house, did you make it?"
Haitang, who reacted, said cautiously: "I don't understand what you say." ā
When the man heard Du Yi and the others speak before, he knew that he couldn't understand the words of the person in front of him, which made him a little powerless. But he still didn't give up, and gestured with his hand: "Who are you, that wooden house, did you make it?"
Looking at the man dancing with his hands, Begonia still shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand what he was saying.
After talking to the duck for a while, the two chickens were a little deflated. In desperation, Haitang simply returned to the wooden house and said to Du Yi: "Yiyi, there is a man outside here, but I can't understand what he says." ā
The man followed her in. He wanted to see how the hut was made. When I saw the structure of the wooden house, I was surprised again. It turned out that the wooden house was like this, and there was a wooden door that was closed, which was much better than their straw hut.
When they walked into the wooden hut, it was quite cool, and on the whole, it looked much better than the grass hut in the tribe.
"Who are you?" asked Doe, seeing the man dressed in a linen-like garment.
"Where are you from, what are you doing here, is this hut made by you?" the man asked again when he saw Dooy.
Begonia didn't understand the words, but Doe did. But when she understood, she wanted to cry, especially if she wanted to cry. This is similar to the modern Malaysian language, although it may be slightly different, but the difference is not much, and you can guess the general meaning.
Could it be that she drifted and sent her to the waters of Malaysia? That is, the legendary South Seas. But such a broken island is simply impossible, where is this place?
Seeing Du Yi's expression, Haitang asked suspiciously: "Yiyi, do you understand, what does he say?"
Du Yi nodded, sighed a little helplessly, and said, "He asked us where we came from, what we came here for, and whether we made this wooden house." ā
Haitang's eyes widened, and she looked at Du Yi's gaze with incredible intelligence: "Princess, do you really understand?"
Doe didn't answer her, but instead straightened his mind and spoke in a language that was unfamiliar to her now. This was one of the foreign languages she minored in modern times, at the age of sixteen.
"We were shipwrecked at sea and came here with the sea. What is the name of this island, but there is a boat that will allow us to go back?"
The man's face was overjoyed when he heard the words that came out of Doe's mouth. This woman can say their words, even if they are weird, but they can still say them, and they are relatively clear.
"This island is called Aoshan Island, and I am the chief of the tribe on this island, and my name is Kuangli. Can you teach us how to make this little cabin?" Kuang Li had a smile on his face, he went to bathe in Moon Lake today, but he didn't expect to meet two women, who still looked like they were all right.
"Yes, but I don't seem to have any inhabitants in it, how can there be a tribe, where do you live?" Doe had seen clearly before, there was a feeling of forest everywhere, how could anyone live. If there is a wooden house, how can they not see.
"The tribe is a little far from here, and we don't live by the sea. Living here, as soon as the wind blows, the roof is lifted. Can you come back with me and teach us how to build a house like this?"
Kuangli is a little helpless, there are many winds and rains here all year round, and this rain, their grass hut is dripping everywhere. When the wind blows, those strong winds can sweep away all their thatched houses. Living in this kind of place is not as safe as the one they live in now. It's just a problem, the house they live in usually doesn't last a few years, which is very troublesome, and if Doe is willing to teach them, it would be great.
Du Yi translated the words to Begonia to see what she meant. If Begonia is living here, then the two of them are living here. But if you want to go to that tribe, then you can go. As long as she won't leave the human race, she just needs to learn about the level of the people here, and then decide how to go back.
Now living here every day and everything seems to be good. But nothing is good. Life is extremely inconvenient, and she still has a child in her belly, and she can't go anywhere, which makes Begonia worried.
"Do you want to see it? If you want to see it, then you can do it. We can't take this hut away, and if we can't live there, we can come back to live there. Begonia also took into account Duyi's stomach, if he went to that tribe, he wouldn't have to worry about food and housing. With her taking care of Doy, nothing should happen.
"Let's go, I want to see how they are and what tools they have. Go back and ask them to help me build a ship, and then we'll be able to go back when we figure out the situation. But it would be nice if they could let Ah Cheng know where we are, and I don't know if they think something is wrong with us now. ā
When Doe said this, he sighed and touched his stomach. This child is almost four months old, and if he can't go back in time, Ah Cheng won't see this child born.
Kuang Li looked at Du Yi's face and couldn't help but say loudly: "Eh, don't you want to go?"
Du Yi came back to his senses, looked at Kuang Li with a slightly apologetic look in his eyes, and said, "My name is Du Yi, and her name is Haitang." We are willing to help you, but I also have one condition, and I hope that you will help me build a ship and send us back to China if the conditions allow. ā
Kuang Li heard Du Yi's words and nodded: "No problem, as long as you help us, you are our great benefactor of Aoshan Island, and your business is our business." ā
Du Yi's hair was dried for a long time, and it was all dry, so he said to Kuang Li, "Then you wait a little longer!"
Begonia's hair is the same as Doy's, and the two of them don't have any jewelry now, and they don't have hairpins. When you go to that tribe and have a knife, you will make a wooden hairpin.
Kuang Li led the way in front, Du Yi walked in the middle, and Begonia walked last. Du Yi walked barefoot on the road, and he didn't feel anything at first, but now he felt a burning pain in his feet.
Kuang Li turned around, and when he wanted to talk to Du Yi, he saw a wrinkled white cheek, and hurriedly said, "You, what's wrong?"
Haitang saw Kuang Li stop, and saw him looking at Du Yi with worried eyes, so she looked up and down nervously: "Yiyi, what's wrong with you, is there something uncomfortable?" When she saw Du Yi barefoot, her eyes suddenly turned red.
She had forgotten that Yiyi's shoes had been lost, and the rest had been thrown aside. She didn't have the skills, and it was uncomfortable to step on such shrubs or jagged weeds. It's all her fault, it's because she's too careless.
Kuang Li also followed his gaze, looked down, and then left a sentence: "You wait for me!" and left.
Haitang felt inexplicable, and Du Yi was even more confused, he couldn't figure out where Kuangli was going and what was waiting for him here?
After a while, I saw Kuang Li coming over with a bloody jumping rabbit skin in his hand. When Haitang saw this, he remembered the two skins he had peeled off before, and said to Du Yi: "Yiyi, you wait for me here, and I will come when I go." ā
Compared to the skin on Kuangli's hand, the one she had handled before was more suitable for Duyi. This bloody thing, don't let Du Yi mess with it, she's pregnant with a child.
Kuang Li saw Bai Mei go quickly, and his eyes widened instantly. This woman is so good, she can run so fast, and she is gone in a blink of an eye.
Du Yi looked at the jumping rabbit skin in Kuang Li's hand, and said with a little apology: "There are many wild things in this jungle, and wearing this turf dipped in blood, blood will flow everywhere you pass by." When you wait for the tribe, maybe there will be big things, and it will smell blood, which is really unsafe. ā
Kuang Li looked at the jumping rabbit skin in his hand, thought about Du Yi's words, and nodded clearly. Just now he was in a hurry, so he would have this fresh, otherwise he would have brought it back to the tribe and let people clean it up, and then it would be used to make clothes and shoes.
Begonia soon returned, and the jumping rabbit skin she was holding in her hand was pierced into four holes by her with grass, and then placed at Doyi's feet, and tied a knot in front and back, left and right.
As long as you don't let Doy's feet step directly on the jagged teeth of those weeds, you'll be fine.
"Begonia, thank you!" Du Yi was very moved in her heart, without Begonia, she was a pot-bellied woman in this kind of place, and she really didn't know how to live.
"Taking care of you is what I should do!" From the time she was given to the princess by the lord, the princess was her master, and her life was given by the master. Taking care of her is a matter of course.
Dooy's eyes were red, and then he smiled again, some of them were ingrained. Since childhood, they have been instilled with the idea that the master is everything and cannot betray the master. Even if she becomes like this now, she doesn't treat them as subordinates, but in their hearts, she will always come first.
"Let's go!" Du Yi took the initiative to hold Begonia's hand, which made her a little flattered.
After a while, Begonia felt that there was nothing wrong with walking like this. The princess is so kind and lovely, walking beside the princess, you can see that there are places that are not easy to walk, and skip directly with her.
The three of them walked all the way for about an hour and a half before they heard the faint voice of someone talking. Du Yi was a little excited in his heart, what would the tribe be like, and what would they have?
And Begonia hears those words that he doesn't understand at all, and his brain is big. What these people say sounds like bird language to her, and she understands every word.
Just then, a phrase came from the tree: "The chief has returned, and he has brought two beautiful women with him!"
The voices from the tribe were even more jubilant. Du Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, how could he feel like he was entering a wolf's den.
When I saw the rows of low straw huts that came into view, and saw the people who came to greet me, all dressed numbly, I was dumbfounded. What era is this, is it not at the level before the Spring and Autumn Period?
"Dui, this is where we live. You have also seen this grass shed, and it is not used. For the next two days, you can rest for a while, and then teach us how to make a wooden house!"
Kuang Li's face showed embarrassment. In particular, I looked at the coats worn by Du Yi and Bai Mei, which were very different from the ones they were wearing, similar to the people on Malay Island.
"Okay, I just don't know where we live?" Du Yi could tell from the clothes and housing of these people that his level was not very good, and now he secretly prayed in his heart that at least there was some iron-smelting technology or something, and some knives.
With iron-smelting technology, what they have to do will be much simpler. Boat, when the time comes, please ask the people here to help make it, it is best to do it, and she can determine what islands are near here, how to go, and she will definitely be able to know how to go back.
"You two will stay at my house for the time being, my aunt is very good, and the house is enough to live. You are the great benefactor of my tribe, and I will never wronged you. Kuang Li said, and led the two to a larger grass hut.
Haitang looked at the grass hut in front of him, and really felt that the wooden house he and Du Yi built by the sea was not a little stronger than this, and it was too backward here.
"Mother, I'm back!" Kuang Li called out outside the hut. Only then did he take Doe and Begonia into the largest grass shed.
"Kuang Li is back?hey, who are these two?" You Li, who heard her son's voice, put down the needle and thread in her hand and hurriedly walked out.
Kuang Li pointed to Du Yi and Haitang and said, "Mother, these two were shipwrecked and came to our island. Their cottage was beautifully made, and it looked strong and durable, so I asked the two of them to come back and teach us how to do it. ā
When You Li heard her son's words, her face showed joy. It would be nice to be able to live in a hut like this.
The grass shed is good, and it is easy to build, but it is troublesome on rainy days. Usually the rain here is as simple as it falls, and people are not prepared at all. And for many days, there was dripping water everywhere in the shed.
"Are you two tired? Rest for a while, I'll go get you something to eat." "Yuri was very hospitable, especially when she saw two delicate guests who were different from them.
One seems to be married, and the other is a match for her son. I don't know if the girl is willing to stay and be their leader's wife.
Du Yi and the others were tired for a few days, and they originally wanted to fix the cracks in the wooden house, so they rested. I didn't expect to run into Kuang Li, so I came directly.
They want to be two days later, just in this free time, they can also have a good rest, by the way, take a look at the environment here.
"Begonia, you've been tired for a few days, squint for a while!" The two of them were arranged in a grass hut, and there was nothing left except a large bed.
Du Yi stood outside the house, looking into the distance, there were quite a few rooms, and he didn't know how many people there were. And what do they do for a living, is it only hunting?
After standing for a moment, Doe yawned and climbed into bed, ready to rest. The sky is big, and she doesn't sleep the most.
When I woke up again, it was pitch black outside, and a bright moon hung high in the sky. She couldn't tell what the voices around her were, but she felt extremely pleasant.
After coming out, the evening breeze was blowing slowly, and there were faint lights spilling out in the distance. It seems that this place, although backward, is not so bad that at night, there is not even an oil lamp.
"Yiyi, but are you awake? Are you hungry, I'll go see if there's anything to eat, and I'll prepare some for you." ā
Begonia was lying on this newly built grass hut, and when she heard Doe's footsteps, she jumped down. The people here eat very casually, as long as they can be cooked, they can eat undead people, and the others are not particular at all.
In Begonia's heart, such food is categorically impossible for Du Yi to eat. It's okay for her to eat by herself, but Du Yi is expensive, and the child in her belly is even more expensive.
It's okay if Begonia doesn't say it, but when she says this, Du Yi also feels hungry. She touched her stomach and said, "I don't know if there's anything to eat here?"
"I'll go out and get something and come back. "Haitang doesn't know what Kuangli's family has, and she doesn't want to touch other people's things. Before Doe could answer, he walked away.
When he came back again, he carried an animal that looked like a deer. Although there was moonlight, Doe didn't see it too clearly.
The tribe has easy access to water sources and wells. The begonia walked around, quickly found a good place, and after killing the deer, he found a pile of firewood.
The two of them set up a fire in front of Kuangli's house, ran the deer through the wood, set it on the fire and began to roast it.
As early as the two of them made this movement, You Li and Kuang Li woke up. When he saw the roasted things on the fire, Yu Li said apologetically: "Du Yi is hungry, so I'll go and prepare something for you." ā
People who know this tribe, except for relatives, other people call their names directly when they meet, and Du Yi said, "You Li, no need." That's all, sorry it's so late, and it bothers you. By the way, do we have any seasoning here?"
Yuli didn't know what she wanted the seasoning, so she asked Doe to follow her to the place where she was cooking. People here don't make a room for cooking. In general, there is a fixed place for cooking, and as for putting things, they are placed at random, and no one will take them anyway.
It was only when You Li was cooking that he lit the oil lamp, and through the faint light, Du Yi could see the surrounding situation clearly.
Some salt, some sour fruits, nothing but these. No, and a jar of honey. When Doe saw this, he nodded with satisfaction.
There's nothing else, so we'll just use it. As you can see from these, there are too many things that need to be changed here. There is a pot here, which means that there is iron. There are bowls and chopsticks here, indicating that there are also ceramics or something, so it is not a primitive society.
Either way, it was much better than she had imagined. If there's a blacksmith or anything like that, it's much easier to change life here.
When the venison was roasted until it was medium-rare, Doe gave the begonias salt and honey. The smell of meat came to the nose, and soon woke up the people who had fallen asleep around them.
Kuang Li swallowed, they hadn't done it before, but it didn't seem to be so fragrant. Why do the same things, the same food, change their taste when they reach them?
Du Yi looked at the people around, looked at the deer, and after it was cooked, he asked the begonia to slice two bowls of meat, and then said to Kuang Li: "I can't eat so much meat, I have to trouble you to deal with it." ā
After she said this, she handed one of the bowls to Begonia. She just eats herself, and the rest, there are so many of them, how much they can share, it has nothing to do with her.
When Kuang Li heard Du Yi's words, his eyes lit up at first, and then a blush flashed on his face. When the distinguished guest came to the door, he made people hungry and looked for food by himself. It's hard to get it right, they are surrounded by so many people, and they have to eat the food of the distinguished guests, which is really a shame.
Thinking about it this way, when I saw so many people staring at me attentively, I also hardened my head, and all the rest of the meat was divided.
Any one of them will eat more than Doy and Begonia. With a few thin slices of meat on top of such a large bowl, where can you eat enough? No wonder these two look so thin.
Yes, in the eyes of the people, Doe and Begonia were the kind of thin women who were powerless, and when their leader told them that these two women were their guests, and that they were going to teach them how to build a wooden house, they did not believe it.
After seeing the two of them eating so little, they were even more uncertain. If you can eat, your body will be good and healthy. Any child in their family is afraid that they will eat much more than these two women.
"Delicious, really tasty. Tomorrow, ask Thea to come and learn from it, it's so fragrant!"
"Well, we do the same, but why don't we make it as delicious as hers? Tomorrow I will also ask Yang Fei to come over to learn, and when I learn, I will eat like this every day. ā
When Kuang Li heard this, a trace of inexplicability flashed on his face. That girl, even these are so delicious, can she save tomorrow a little longer, see what they will do, and can she lead his tribe to get better and better?
Every time I go to Malay to exchange something, I have to exchange a lot of things. If these two distinguished guests teach them a skill, they will not have to bring so many things to change when they come to Malay.
When Doy and Begonia had eaten their fill, they sat on the roof of the straw hut and looked up at the stars. The two of them didn't feel sleepy at the moment, looking at the vast night sky, their hearts were also empty.
"Begonia, do you think Ah Cheng thinks I'm in trouble and gone?" Thinking of this, Du Yi's chest was blocked.
"No, I will definitely believe that we are still alive. Haitang's words are categorical, if it were her, she wouldn't believe it.
The princess is so smart, how could she be gone because of a shipwreck. I believe that the master must have thought so, and will find them in the fastest time.
"I don't know how long I'm going to stay here, but those two little ones are crying. "Du Yi is afraid that he will not be able to go back if he stays here, and he will not be able to watch his son grow up. As soon as she thought about it, her heart throbbed.
That little guy who seems to be very independent, but is actually a little clingy, doesn't know how this time has been.
And her cousin Ling Yuanfan, I don't know if it's safe, if there is a case, how will her cousin-in-law and her children live?
"Begonia, from tomorrow we will make some bamboo cans, and I will pass on the news of where we are and are still alive. I don't know if it will work, so when it is written and done, I throw it into the sea. Maybe one day, Ah Cheng will see it, maybe it's not true. ā
Doe remembered the current drifting bottle, she didn't have a glass bottle, and it would be nice to replace it with a bamboo can.
"Good!" no matter what the outcome, even if it makes them ask for a hope. And maybe, their grandfather really knows that someone will really see it and come to them.
The people of the tribe, after the barbecue in the evening, did not believe that Doe would make a wooden house. In order to convince them, Kuangli led a group of people early in the morning in the direction of the wooden house that Dui had made by the sea.
As long as they see the hut and make them believe it, it's much easier to replace the hut with a hut.
A group of about 20 people came to the beach. When they saw the wooden hut that was much better than their straw hut, they were all stunned.
This house is much better than their straw hut. The seaside is a hot place, but in this house, it doesn't feel very hot. The shade under the tree is good, and the roof is made of banana leaves and palm leaves, which is much more refreshing.
Unbeknownst to Du Yi and Begonia, the men of the tribe had seen their wooden houses and worshipped them as goddesses.
The roof decays more slowly than weeds and looks neat. And the people in the tribe, because it is a grass hut, the roof cannot withstand too much gravity, because when it rains, all kinds of dripping water. In addition, the weeds decay quickly, so a grass shed cannot live for a few years, and it has to be re-covered.
"Chief, this wood, are you sure those two women made it?" Ace looked at the wooden house in front of him, and didn't believe that those two thin women would make such a house.
Even a big man like them can't think of it. Those two women who even eat like feeding cats can do it. Not to mention anything else, in terms of single strength, he alone can top several of them.
"If they hadn't done it, would we have not been able to do it? If we would have known how to do it, would we still be able to live in a straw hut? You see, this wood is still new. When I met them, they didn't have any tools. If I had, I would be able to make a better house than I have now. ā
Everyone followed Kuang Li's hand, looked at the wood, and took a closer look, it was true. Kuang Li didn't really pay attention to it, the wood was not cut out, but more like it was broken by someone. The wood is not big, and it is relatively easy to fold.
They have tools, and there are many large logs on the island, so let the two women teach them, and the wooden houses they make can be used for more than ten years. Not to mention the side, just this wood, they must choose the big one.
"Chief, not like this. Build your house first, and we'll help out. If it's good, we'll all change the house. If those two distinguished guests can make a house like this, they must be able to make other things, if we let them both teach me. ā
Delai is a carpenter, and he can do some simple carpentry work, such as making tables and chairs. Looking at this house, and then thinking about the house where I live, I feel envious. This room, if there is a window, must be spacious and bright.
He could see that this room was made like this, without any tools. The craftsmanship of those two distinguished guests must be very high, if he can learn a little, the people of the tribe will live better and better in the future.
Delai's words are exactly what Kuang Li meant. He wants the people of the tribe to live better and better. But the first thing to solve is the problem of accommodation. The province often builds a house, which is too troublesome. When it rains, you have to worry about everything.
"Well, go back and draw a place first, build my house, and you all listen to their command. Wait a minute, make other rooms together. If you can teach us some other skills, we won't have to exchange so many things when we go to Malay Island in the future, and maybe we can get back a lot of things by relying on this craft. ā
Kuang Li's abacus is very good, they didn't have much ability before, and every time they went to Malay Island to buy some daily necessities, they had to exchange a lot of things. Now I am very excited to exchange something that is not available in Malay and be able to return a lot of things.
If this continues, in the future, they will live better and better on Osan Island, and maybe they can buy some roof tiled houses like those in Malay Island. When I thought of the roof tile house, my eyes lit up again.
First go back to make a wooden house, and after a while, then ask the distinguished guests if they can make roof tiles, and how to build a roof tile house for every household. People in Malay do not want to come to Oyama Island to work. And even if they come, it's too expensive, and they want to exchange for many, many things, and they don't want to, and they don't want to.
Everyone looked at the wooden house, and they all nodded when they looked at Kuang Li. If their leader's cabin can be done, it won't be too late for them to do it. But in the meantime, I have to be kind to those two distinguished guests.
Du Yi woke up in the morning, and the shoes on her feet were still the same as the ones that Begonia gave her yesterday. After she walked out of the room, she looked around, and a feeling of grievance welled up in her heart. I don't know how Ah Cheng is doing, if he thinks about himself like him. and Xiaoshuai's child, will he cry his nose.
"Yiyi, wake up, I've made some wild vegetable soup, you can drink some!"
Begonia doesn't understand what to say here, and there is no way to communicate with You Li at all. She wanted to make some porridge for Du Yi, but no matter how she compared, You Li couldn't understand it. In the end, in desperation, he went to the surrounding area, found some wild vegetables, and boiled some wild vegetable soup for Du Yi. However, she added some morning chicken to the wild vegetable soup.
"Okay, have you eaten?" Doe didn't know much about the situation here, and he didn't know how long he would be able to stay here. When I saw the annoyed expression on Begonia's face, I knew that I was probably annoyed because I couldn't understand the words.
"No, I'm waiting for you to eat with me. Yiyi, you teach me here, I can't communicate, I can't stand it. "Begonia feels that communication is a big problem, it is too backward here, and it lives in someone else's house. If you want to do anything, you have to ask others, it's really choking.
"Okay. Aren't they going to build a house? When I see Kuangli, I'll talk to them and see if we can build a house for us first. Although we have a wooden house by the sea, now we need their help, and we need to be close to them. ā
Begonia nodded, this is indeed the reason. They have nothing here, and if they want to go back or build a ship, they will definitely not be able to do it on their own. This is the premise, and you have to get along with these people.
As soon as You Li came out, he happened to see Du Yi holding a bowl, sitting there with soup, his eyes lit up, and he stepped forward and said, "Du Yi, I will take you around today, so that the people of the tribe can get to know you." ā
In two days' time, these two girls will teach them how to build a house, and now they must be acquainted with them. The girl she fancies, but unfortunately she won't say what they say, otherwise, it would be good to let her be the chief's wife in the future.
"Okay, You Li, wait a minute, wait until you're done eating. By the way, Yuli, all the people on our island live here? How many people are here, but there are blacksmiths and carpenters, and what do we produce here, and what do we eat?"
Doe has a lot to say, and he wants to ask. After thinking about it, she asked a few questions that she desperately needed to know. As for the rest, you can slowly discover it later.
"We have more than 1,000 people and more than 200 families on Okuyama Island. They all live here, and you didn't see it clearly yesterday, so I'm sorry. As for the carpenters and blacksmiths you mentioned, there are also. Kuang Li spent a lot of food to send them to Malay Island to study. ā
Yu Li said this, paused, and after looking at the soup in Du Yi's hand, he said, "Most of our people here eat this meat. Sometimes I come back from fishing at the beach and the like to eat. You don't have to worry about food, you are my honored guests on Aoshan Island, and we will naturally arrange these. ā
Doe didn't hear the answer he wanted, and was a little lost. It should be close to the equator, where grain can be grown, and three crops can be harvested a year. Even if you can't, you can still grow some potatoes and sweet potatoes and the like. It's also much better than just eating meat and seafood.
However, there are also a lot of wild vegetables here, so I don't know if these people eat them or not. Maybe they grow their own vegetables.
"You Li, I want to discuss with you, you don't think this will work. We don't think we can go back for the time being, so when we build a wooden house, can we make a place in Kuangli and let us build it first? I don't think it's convenient to live in your house all the time. ā
You Li originally wanted to say something, but when she saw Du Yi stroking her stomach, she immediately understood. This distinguished guest has a baby, and there are two women, and it is really inconvenient to live with them.
Du Yi and Haitang were wearing their own clothes, You Li looked at their clothes, and said, "That's naturally no problem, when Kuang Li comes back, I'll talk to him." Dooy, I see you're wearing this shirt well, but you don't have any clothes to change into, and I still have some linen here, why don't you make some clothes to change into?"
When Du Yi heard her sackcloth, a smile of joy bloomed on his face. She and Begonia are worried about having no clothes to change in, no, if they doze off, someone will send a pillow. Before, she and Begonia were surrounded by banana leaves, but when she heard that there were people, she changed into her original clothes, and so did Begonia.
Now there is linen, and with her and Begonia's craftsmanship, they will be able to have new clothes at night. Simple clothes, no need to embroider or anything, or very fast.
Begonia didn't know what Yuri and Doe said, so she saw a smile on her face. Listening to these bird words, she felt extremely discouraged, and it seemed that learning the words here was her first priority.
After You Li left, Du Yi smiled and said, "Begonia, You Li said that she has some linen cloth and will make clothes for us to wear." I agreed, we need to change our clothes, we can't wear these. I also told her to set aside a place in Kuangli and build a wooden house for us first. When we have our own house, it will be much more convenient and we don't have to live with her. ā
"Well, when the time comes, it will be good to build three rooms, two rooms, a kitchen and a hall. Haitang was overjoyed to hear that she could have her own house. In this way, she will not be tied down in what she has to do.
When Yuri came over, she was holding two brown sackcloth in her hands. When Du Yi wanted to reach out and take it, Begonia hugged him first. Du Yi's belly was already slightly protruding, and many things in Begonia were not allowed to be touched.
"Yuri, thank you!"
"It's our thanks to you. You are a distinguished guest of our tribe, and if the wooden house is built, you will be a great benefactor of our tribe. This bit of cloth is nothing. Go, I'll take you to recognize the people of the tribe. ā
You Li said, seeing that the begonia had already put the cloth away, and then walked in front of Du Yi and the others. Doe seems to be on top of the curve, but in fact he is the best person to get along with. On the contrary, the woman who looked neat and tidy didn't feel easy to get along with. Perhaps, this is a problem of poor communication.
"Thea, let me introduce you, this is the distinguished guest of our tribe. In two days they will teach our tribesmen to build houses, and I think you are the same age, so you should be able to get along with it. ā
Thea resembles a Eurasian half-breed, tall and extremely well-proportioned. The three-dimensional facial features and bronzed skin make her look healthy and beautiful.
When she saw Du Yi and Begonia, she exclaimed, "You are so beautiful, so white!"
Begonia didn't know what Thea was talking about, but judging by her expression, she knew that it was probably a compliment. A person's eyes can't deceive people.
"Thank you, you're beautiful and healthy, too!" Doe looked at Thea, liking the cheerful woman. When she saw a tray of looms, she blinked. Thea, is it the Weaver Girl on this island?
"Your clothes are beautiful, I've never seen cloth like this, where did you buy them?" Thea couldn't help but sigh when she saw Doy's clothes. Not to mention how beautiful the embroidery is, the cloth is different from what she made. One in the sky, one in the ground.
"This is cloth from my country, and you can see it if you have the chance. "Doe really wants to give Thea a chance, so that she can go back.
"Alright, let's settle it, I'm glad to meet you!"
"Me too, I can move around more when I have the opportunity in the future!" It's rare to meet a nice woman, no, it should be the first friend I made on this island, and she is also very happy. Ah Cheng is not around, she can't be sad. As long as she lives well and raises herself well, Ah Cheng will not be so sad when she finds out.
After Yuri and Doe came out of Thea's hut, they went on to a few more houses, either sewing or raising some poultry. Otherwise, they are taking care of the vegetable garden, and some of them are going out to sea to fish.
After walking down the lap, the only ones who can make Doe and Begonia remember are Thea, Amy, Yang Fei and Camille. The rest of the people were automatically ignored by them.
It's backward here, that's what Doe and Begonia think. People here, eating, as You Li said, meat and seafood as the staple food, as for the dish, is even simpler. Basically, the water is boiled, the vegetables are thrown down, a little salt is added or something, and when it is cooked, it is fished up and eaten directly. They don't know what oil is.
It seems that the people on their side are used to eating like this, and they can even eat it with relish. Of course, this image was accidentally seen by Doe.
"Begonia, when I have time, I think it is necessary to teach the people here how to make some food. "Dui really can't bear these people, abusing his taste buds like this.
"Forget it, maybe that's what they taste. Later, when we do it ourselves, if they like it, they will automatically come and ask us for advice. "Begonias naturally also saw their way of eating, although they were very surprised, but thinking that the conditions here are like this, there is no need to make a fuss.
Du Yi and You Li borrowed a knife, and then went to the bamboo forest with Begonia, cut some bamboo and returned to Kuangli's house. After cutting it into sections, they wrote their words on the outside of the bamboo, and signed them, along with the words of Malay Island nearby. The two of them did this and that, about a hundred of them.
"Yiyi, you go back to the house and rest first, and I'll go and throw this bamboo jar into the sea. I hope they can receive it and see it. In the future, we will make a hundred of them every day, and sooner or later, one day, one bottle will pass through the Blue Sea Country. Maybe it will float to Marina Town, as long as those townspeople know, the people of the lord will also know. ā
When Begonia said this, her eyes were fixed on Doe's stomach. She didn't want Doe to have a baby here at that time, it was too backward. Now they want to get out of here, but it's not easy.
Doe looked at the burlap bag he had borrowed from Yuri, it was full. Thinking of his sad son and Zi Yicheng, who might be angry, he nodded. A hundred a day, in fact, very quickly. In 100 days, she was able to make 10,000 out. Isn't there a single one of the 10,000 miles that drifts to the Blue Sea Country?
Time flies quickly, and in the bamboo jar drifting bottle made by Du Yi and Begonia, it passes quietly. Kuang Li agreed, and built a wooden house for them first, just so that everyone could see how it was. The address of the wooden house is next to Kuang Li's house.
Du Yi has so many helpers, and he has tools such as knives and axes. It only took half a day for everyone to cut back the wood that Du Yi and Begonia had selected in advance. When the wood arrives at home, Begonia has the wood neatly split into planks.
Of course, the most important saw is indispensable. Fortunately, there are carpenters and blacksmiths in this tribe, and there are still saws. There are many people and many strengths, and it took two days to fix the thickness of the wooden planks that Du Yi and Begonia wanted.
Because of the tools here, Doe unceremoniously chose four large trees as the main pillars. Since there are free manpower and material resources to use, why don't she use it? Even the roof, she plans to do it better.
Before the wooden house, Dui they did not drive piles. But since he was going to live here, and he didn't know how long he would stay, Du Yi pondered it and asked people to drive piles underground. It's just that this is a relatively humid place, and this stake is still relatively easy to corrode.
Doy didn't know which trees were not perishable, so he left the problem to Kuangli. He was born and raised here, and even if he didn't know, the rest of the old people would know. It's up to him to solve it, and she doesn't bother to care. She can't live here for the rest of her life, she can live for three or five years, and she will die.
When the stakes were laid, Doe was once again in charge. She had already drawn the structural diagram of the house, and explained it to Haitang, and she was in charge.
In this tribe, the first time to build a wooden house is a rare thing. Men and women, young and old, all come over from time to time to take a walk around and see what is going on.
The first layer of the roof has been nailed, and the begonias have been laid with layers of banana leaves and palm leaves, and then the planks are laid on the second floor and nailed together a second time. In order to prevent rain, Du Yi asked Begonia to make the eaves one meter long, so that even if it rains, even if you stand under the eaves, you will not get wet.
The hut was already finishing, and the sky was not beautiful, but it was raining. Seeing this, the begonia held a pile of banana leaves and palm leaves that had been folded off in advance, jumped on the roof, quickly laid them one by one, picked up some stones, and pressed them on it.
When he came down again, his clothes were soaked. But it didn't affect her good mood at all. Because of the affairs of the wooden house, the carpenter was in a good mood, and specially made a few simple tables and stools and barrels for the two of them.
In the wooden house, Du Yi was afraid of getting wet on rainy days, so he deliberately asked people to find some stones that were not much different, but relatively neat and spread on the ground. In addition, the wooden planks that had been built in advance were laid on the stones, so that even if it was two floors apart, no matter how heavy the rain and humidity were, it would not penetrate in.
In order to prevent the wind from blowing in, the wooden planks of the house were also nailed together in two layers of thin boards. Even the windows are propped up from the outside with wooden planks. The whole house can be described as the best and most beautiful one in this tribe.
The house is still finished, with a kitchen, a living room, a firewood room, and a house. It's just that the room was empty and there was nothing except the tables and chairs. Originally, Doe was still thinking about moving in, but it was going to rain and he didn't have everything ready, so he dispelled this idea.
Haitang didn't want to go back, she felt that her own family was good, Kuangli's family was good, but after all, it was someone else's.
"Begonia, there is no bed here, lie on that plank and sleep, in case the water vapor seeps up from the ground, it will not be good. "Du Yi didn't want to live here, she always felt a little awkward to live in Kuang Lina.
"Yiyi, during this time, I didn't list some wild things, those skins are ready, we just spread the skins on the ground, and it will be fine. Didn't Yuri and Amy send some too, we'll just take a look, it should be fine. ā
Du Yi originally wanted people to make a kang, but the conditions here did not allow it. Hearing Begonia say that it was covered with the skin of wild things, he also nodded happily. There are two floors underground, and with those skins, it shouldn't be a big deal. It's a big deal, when you're cooking, burn some firewood, get some charcoal, and bake the house.
"Nacheng, I'll go to the kitchen to see what kind of dishes Camille and the others have delivered, and we will have some in the evening. With that, Doe walked towards the kitchen. Begonia looked at the wet clothes on her body and walked next door.
Du Yi looked at the kitchen and saw that there were a few handfuls of small greens and cabbage radishes in the kitchen, and then looked at the wild boar meat they had sent to Kuangli before, and decided to eat some vegetables tonight. On these days when there are no staple foods, the stomach is really hard.
In the kitchen there was a small pot and kitchen knife, as well as a shovel, which had been sent by a blacksmith. These things were new, and Doe pondered for a moment, and carried the barrel outside the house to fetch water. In this house, there is no water tank, she is pregnant, and she can't go far on a rainy day, so she can only use this natural and unpolluted rainwater.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and after a short time she took some water, poured it into the pot, and put the bucket outside again to get the water. She carefully scalded the new pot with hot water for a long time, and then poured it out and took out wild boar and cabbage.
"Yiyi, I'm back. After these few days, Haitang and You Li have learned to communicate with their fingers. She was followed by Kuang Li and You Li, and in addition to the three of them holding daily necessities such as dishes and chopsticks in their hands, there were also two people who were putting Kuang Li's things.
The sky was still a little bright, and the oil lamp that You Li brought was lit, so he automatically and spontaneously went to the kitchen to help Du Yi.
Begonia looked at the wet clothes on her body, fortunately it was a linen cloth, but it would not stick to her body, so that her curves were exposed. He raised his voice and said to Du Yi in the kitchen: "Yiyi, you help me talk to Kuang Li, and let him help me go to the carpenter's house and make a cylinder for bathing." ā
When Du Yi heard it, he said something. After a while, I saw You Li come out, and after a few words to Kuang Li, Kuang Li glanced at the begonia and left.
The hut was finished, and before it was completely dark, the people of the tribe looked at the hut from afar, which was much higher than their hut, and envied it. The people who had questioned Dui had nothing to say anymore.
If they didn't believe that the wooden house by the sea was made by Du Yi and them before, then the current wooden house was completed under the guidance of Begonia, can they still disagree? Until this moment, the people in the tribe completely treated Du Yi and Begonia as honored guests.
Binhai Town, Ling Yuanfan woke up, looking at the person in front of him, he was a big man, his eyes were red. He survived, still in the waters of Marina Town. There were so many people on the ship, and they didn't know where they were. And Doe, is she okay?
Xiao Shuai squeezed in front of the bed with red eyes, looked at Ling Yuanfan, slightly crying, but said with a stubbornness on his face: "Cousin, have you woken up?
Ling Yuanfan saw Xiao Shuai and struggled to sit up. He didn't know how long he had been asleep, his body was sore, and he looked at Xiao Shuai with a slightly guilty expression: "Uncle cousin is useless, I didn't protect your mother!"
Hearing this, Xiao Shuai stubbornly had a small face, his eyes quickly reddened, and tears quickly dripped down. He glanced at Ling Yuanfan deeply, shook his head, and said, "Master said, it was a natural disaster, and no one can be blamed. My mother must still be alive, nothing will happen. I'm going to find my mother, she must be scared. ā
The little guy took two steps, and was hugged by Rose: "Little Shizi, you can't go." The slave has already sent a message to the master, and I believe that the master will come soon. Don't run around, if you can't find you, you'll probably go crazy. ā
Xiao Shuai struggled twice, and finally lay on Rose's arms and cried so badly. He knew that something must have happened to his mother, and it turned out to be true. My mother must be scared now, and I don't know where she is, are my younger siblings okay?
Xiaobao and Huzi stood beside Xiaoshuai with red eyes, silent.
"Ruiyu, come here!" Taishi Yang saw Xiao Shuai crying and switching, and he was also uncomfortable. No one wants to see this kind of picture, and no one wants to see anyone have an accident. But something like this happened, which caught people off guard.
Ling Yuanfan suddenly thought of something, and said angrily: "The boat that came back this time was arranged by Gu Xiyuan. He is a member of the Baili family and the great prince of the Blue Sea Country. They could have avoided this incident, but the boatmen and sailors drove the ship away from its original course. We got lost at sea and didn't know how to get back. ā
When Taishi Yang heard this, he also said in a deep voice: "What do you mean, this is a deliberate murder?" Whether it was Gu Xiyuan or not, it was also something provoked by the people from the Blue Sea Country. Perhaps, maybe it's those princes.
Originally, I thought it was a natural disaster*, but if this is really the case, it is a deliberate murder, and it is the Blue Sea Country that wants to provoke a war. No one can accept such a thing, and if they want to fight, they are not afraid of the Purple Moon Kingdom.
When Xiao Shuai and Xiao Bao heard this, they shook their heads and said, "Master won't do this, it must be someone else." If Master wants to harm us, there is no need to make such a big move. ā
If Gu Xiyuan really wanted to harm them, there were many opportunities before, and it was impossible to make a move in this blue sea country. Not to mention the side, just Gu Xiyuan's medical skills, if you want to let a person die, it is very simple, and there is really no need for that.
If he has the intention of harming others, he can completely let the other party die unconsciously.
Ling Yuanfan, who was originally carried away by anger, heard that the two little guys trusted Gu Xiyuan so much, and also remembered his medical skills, so he swallowed everything he wanted to say.
"I want to avenge my mother!" Xiao Shuai's small eyes burned with rage. It must have been done by the three princes. He had been sneering at his mother before, and when his mother left, he started on his mother's bed, it must be like this.
"We also want to avenge our aunt!" Xiaobao and Huzi also hurriedly expressed their position. Anyone who bullied Aunt Yiyi, they deserve to die.
Yang Taishi and others, why don't they think so. Those people in the Blue Sea Country didn't take their Purple Moon Country seriously at all. insulted them in the court, and then a series of behaviors were really chilling. Now they are working on that boat again, and they have harmed their princess, and now their whereabouts are unknown. If you can endure this breath, the world will still say that they are incompetent in the Purple Moon Country.
"Okay, it's okay to take revenge, but you can't act alone, now obediently wait here for news. Didn't Rose already send a message back? ā
Lin Heru was also very angry, Du Mansion is now a Du Yi, if Du Yi has something to do, what kind of face will she have to go back to the capital? If her father and mother knew about it, they would definitely be heartbroken.
Xiao Shuai looked stubborn, and after looking at everyone around, he nodded. It's been many days, and I don't know how my mother is doing, whether she's safe.
The little guy thought about it, but the more he thought about it, the more sad he became. What if his mother is killed?
The capital of the Purple Moon Country.
Not long after Zi Yicheng returned to the capital, he listened to Ling Sheng and the others talk about Zi Yifeng's behavior, and said, "It's time to deal with it, don't worry about it boldly." ā
Zi Yifeng had exhausted all his patience and provoked him again and again. took advantage of the time when he was not in the court, and blatantly formed a gang. It doesn't matter, this just allows him to see clearly who he needs to clean up, and he will clean them up one by one in the future, which is too troublesome.
"Yes!"
"If you need any help, just talk to Xunying. The king wanted him to fall in the shortest possible time. Now, he has nothing to fear. ā
Zi Yifeng's soldiers were either wiped out or secretly replaced by their own people. Even if Zi Yifeng rebelled at this moment, he had nothing to worry about.
Iyi had been out for a long time, and he wanted to see what was going on. For some reason, the uneasiness in his heart grew bigger and bigger.
"Xunying, inform Xinniang and act as soon as possible. ā
"Yes, sir!"
The capital was so lively during this time, the sixth princess Du Zilin died of illness, and within two days, she hurriedly arranged for her burial. And the tomb where he was buried was not an imperial tomb, but a pit was dug at random and things were hastily done.
After Ling Fenfang found out, she laughed openly and secretly. Without Du Zilin, Du Heng could no longer be upright in front of Zi Yifeng.
Du Zilin made a lot of trouble for the Six Princes' Mansion, lost the face of the Six Princes' Mansion, and was a hen that couldn't lay eggs, and she didn't give birth to a son and a half daughter.
For this reason, even if Du Zilin died, Zi Yifeng needed to win over some people, and they couldn't help but pay for the silver they needed.
Du Heng was dissatisfied, wanted to make trouble, and was afraid that the hard-won wealth would have nothing after the trouble, so he endured everything.
Because of this, the more Du Heng's father and son thought about it, the more aggrieved they became. I want to poke things out, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to gain a foothold in the capital. But in the face of constant demands, he was also unwilling.
Du Zhigao sat in the study, thinking about Xinniang's words, and couldn't calm down in his heart. Looking at Du Heng, who had a worried face, he said, "Dad, we can't give the sixth prince silver." He's a bottomless pit at all, and he can't fill it. You see Zilin is gone, how did he treat Zilin?"
Du Heng didn't understand that Zi Yifeng didn't take them to heart at all. Du Zilin is the princess, but she doesn't have the burial specifications that she should have, which is completely ignorant of them, and at the same time, she wants them to continue to provide silver, which makes him panic.
Those people who have business dealings, it can be seen from Du Zilin's matter that they are not valued by Zi Yifeng, either intentionally or unintentionally to clear up the relationship, or deliberately take Qiao and raise the price.
"If you don't give the silver, I'm afraid that the relationship will be stiffened. If you want to gain a foothold in this capital, I'm afraid it's difficult. ā
"But business is getting worse and worse, and the money I make is getting less and less. Every three days, I still need to give him so much silver, I don't see a month, we are not as good as before. Dad, I've thought about it, let's pack up everything in the shop now, take the silver, go back to Fengcheng or Jixian, and buy some fields and properties is better than in this capital. ā
Du Heng glanced at his son with complicated eyes, thinking that the Du family now has no queen. It's good to go back to a small place, and when the time comes, marry a local lady, are you afraid that there will be no successor?
"If the sixth prince is angry because of this, what should he do?" he thought, if they talked about selling their properties and returning to Jixian County, what would Zi Yifeng do if they were angry and investigated. Where is the silver? Could it be that the Purple Moon Money Dealer can't do it?
"Dad, our business is getting worse and worse, and if we continue like this, we will lose all our money sooner or later. It's better to save some money now and go back to the countryside to be a landowner. How about we sell these properties in the capital, keep a little on you and me, save a little in Ziyue Qianzhuang, and put the rest in Xinniang?"
In Du Zhigao's heart, anyone can betray them, but Xin Niang and they have worked hard all the way, they will definitely not. If she wanted to live so hard at the beginning, she would never give up.
"Yes, let's put some on us. If the six princes ask for silver, give him what is on us. Xin Niang left some on her, so she didn't have to worry about the future. ā
Du Heng thought about it and agreed, and now the father and son quietly began to transfer property. Don't look at the work before and after, it has only been half a year, but the father and son have made a lot of money in the name of Zi Yifeng's father-in-law and brother-in-law. Those movable and immovable properties combined, just right, and they got the princess's silver for Du Zilin before.
Zi Yifeng naturally knew about the actions of Du Heng's father and son. When he saw Du Heng standing in front of him, saying that Du Zilin was gone, and he wanted to leave this sad place and go back to Jixian County, he had a cold face and exuded a cold aura all over his body.
"Do you think that this king has cultivated one of you, and finally made some money, and you can leave if you say go? ā
When Du Heng heard Zi Yifeng's shameless words, his face turned red with anger, and his chest rose and fell.
"Sixth prince, business is not doing well now, and there is really not much silver. ā
"Do you think this king is a fool? How many people this king has under his command, do you know? Since you don't want to do it, go back. Before you go back, give me the money, or Hugh will be unkind to the king. ā
Du Heng's face was distorted, but in front of power, he couldn't help but bow his head. If you want silver, then give it a little, 20,000 taels is the limit.
That night, Zi Yifeng saw that the thickness of the silver ticket on the table was very different from what he imagined, so he looked at Du Heng coldly: "Are you sending beggars? How much property and how much silver do you have, and this king doesn't know? Du Heng, don't be smart." Annoyed this king, you can't even get out of this door!"
When Du Heng heard this, he was annoyed. It is not easy for him to make money, during this period of time, he has to provide silver to Zi Yifeng for three days, not to mention the expenses, and now he has given 20,000 taels is actually too little. Do you really have to give him all your possessions before you stop?
"Sixth Prince, this is already the most silver I can take. You also know that business is not easy now, and every three days, you have to give three hundred taels of silver. This month is three thousand taels, where is there any silver. ā
"It's only three hundred taels of silver, don't think that this king doesn't know how much you have. Hmph, if you know each other, you will take out the silver, and then you will do it. Otherwise, you won't want to leave this palace today. ā
Twenty thousand taels of silver, is it really a beggar? Ziyi City has already returned to Beijing. Now his time is almost ripe, and it is the time to use the money, and the 20,000 taels are not enough at all. This Du Heng is really bold, thinking that he doesn't know anything?
"There is really no silver, if the sixth prince doesn't believe it and wants to keep me, then I can only stay and disturb. Du Heng didn't mention how depressed he was, the person in front of him, if he counted it seriously, was still his son-in-law, so he had to call him a father-in-law. But that attitude, don't say anything respectful, even if it is to treat subordinates, it will not be like this.
Since you want to stay, then let's stay, do you think that if you stay, you will be rich? Now there is so much money left in the family, I knew that it would become like this, and I wouldn't have bankrupted Zilin's girl to do what the hell princess was.
Lo and behold, the benefits are not obtained. These just made up for the 60,000 taels spent before, and now he has to give him 20,000 taels. This is not enough, is it really necessary to kill them all, so that they will not live at all, before he stops?
Thinking about him Du Heng in this life, he worked hard to snatch a lot of property from his eldest brother, but all of them were fed into the mouth of the black-hearted man in front of him. Asking for money, no. Damn, one!
Zi Yifeng heard Du Heng's mouth hard, and his eyes turned cold. It seems that this old guy really doesn't plan to give silver, very good, really good. It's only been a few days, and the guts have become so fat.
"Come on, put Du Heng in the dungeon for me. In the past few days, he has taken care of this king's good life, but this king wants to see how long he can harden his mouth, whether silver is important or life is important. ā
Zi Yifeng expected that Du Heng would be greedy for life and afraid of death, and would obediently hand over the silver. In this world, who is not afraid of death? Keep the silver, he wants Du Heng to have silver and die to spend it.
"Yes, Lord Wang!"
Du Heng pursed his mouth, looking at the guard who was really carrying him, his heart sank more and more. The son is right, he can't cooperate with Zi Yifeng anymore, if this continues, everyone in their family will have to die. Now, a Zilin has died, he is old, it's okay to die, his son must stay. Their Du family got incense, and they had to rely on their son to inherit it.
There are 30,000 or 40,000 taels of silver left, enough for him and Xinniang to go back to Jixian County, buy some land, build a house, and live the rest of their lives. If he gave that silver to Zi Yifeng now, even if he was alive, for the rest of his life, the three of them would have to live a life that was worse than death. That's it, so be it.
Du Zhigao was in the house, waiting left and right, waiting for a long time, and he didn't wait for Du Heng to come back. After thinking about it, he called Bigui and said, "You have been with Zilin, and you have also stayed in the Six Princes' Mansion for a while, so there must be many people you know there." You go and ask me why my dad hasn't come out yet, is something wrong? ā
Bigui didn't speak, her deed of sale was still in Du Mansion, even though Du Zilin was dead, Du Yi had promised her that she would give her back her freedom. But this deed of sale still has to be taken back in the end. Now if you want her to do something, you can return the deed of sale to her first.
Seeing this, Xin Niang took the opportunity to bring it up and said, "Official, now that we are going back, we can't take this Bigui with us." She has followed her wife Du Ling, and taken care of her sister-in-law, but now that her sister-in-law is gone, she should be let go. If you don't, let her help inquire about the news, and we will return the deed of sale to her, in return, what do you think?"
The current subordinates in the house have all been sold by Du Zhigao, and now there is only one Bigui left. As Xin Niang said, it's not easy to take away. After all, if you bring one more person back, you will spend more money to support someone. Rather than this, it is better to return the deed of sale to Bigui directly.
Nowadays, it doesn't take a few taels of silver to buy a subordinate. But all the way back to Jixian County from the capital, you have to follow them to eat and live, not to mention the expenses of one more person, and you have to give monthly silver every month, which is a bit of a loss. Of course, none of this is important. The most important thing is that he now wants Bigui to go to the Six Princes' Mansion to inquire about the news, and it is not possible to give some money.
If the deed of sale is returned to Bigui and asked her to report the news, then she will have to exchange the news. As for how to get the news and how much money was spent, it has nothing to do with him.
"Okay, just do as you say. In a moment, I will take your deed of sale with you, and we will go to the side gate of the Six Kings' Mansion together. If you find out the news, you will naturally return the deed of sale. But if you can't find out, then don't blame me for selling you. But you can also rest assured, I, Du Zhigao, speak my word, I will put this deed of sale in Xinniang, you also know that she is the most kind, and she will definitely not return it to you. ā
After Du Zhigao said this, he left the two of them and went to look for the deed of sale. And Bigui took the opportunity to say to Xin Niang: "Thank you, girl, go back and bother the girl to say to the princess, thank her!"
"You're welcome, take the deed of sale and leave. If there is nowhere to go, you can go to Liujia Town, where Liu Ru is also there. But if you get there, you have to change your ways, otherwise, the consequences are not something you can afford. ā
This is what Du Yi and Xin Niang said before. After asking the two of them to cooperate, tell Bigui this. The road, they gave it, it depends on how she chooses.
"Hmm!" Bigui said this, bowing her head and saying nothing. She doesn't have anything to bring with her in this mansion, and her silver is also stored in Ziyue Qianzhuang. As long as you leave here and go to the government to eliminate the lowly status, it's fine.
An hour later, in the shadow of the side gate of the Six Kings' Mansion, a carriage came to a halt. In the carriage, there are baggage. Du Zhigao and Xinniang sat in the carriage, waiting for news from Bigui.
The side door opened, and Bigui hurriedly walked over, took a look, and made sure that it was Xin Niang and them, before getting into the carriage.
"Young master, the slave maid heard the news, and the master was locked up in the dungeon by the sixth prince. The specific reason seems to be that the sixth prince was not satisfied with the silver given by the master, and then he was locked up. As for how long it will take and how much silver it will cost, no one knows. ā
As soon as Du Zhigao heard the news, he was furious, and cursed in a low voice: "Zi Yifeng's heart and liver are black, he gave three thousand taels a month, and now he has sent another twenty thousand taels of silver, which is not enough." He's going to skin us and drink all our blood, right? Daddy went to the dungeon, presumably to protect us. That's it, that's all. Find an inn to rest for the night, and leave early tomorrow morning. ā
When Xin Niang heard this, Du Zhigao didn't care about his father, and was about to leave, bowing his head slightly, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth. Du Zhigao is really a "good" filial son.
"Young master, the slave's deed of sale......" Seeing Xinniang's expression, she couldn't help but remind her loudly.
"Sorry, I forgot about it. This is your deed of sale, you look at the words and the handprint, make sure. If that's right, let's go!" Xin Niang said, taking out a deed of sale from her bosom and handing it to Bigui.
"That's right, this is it. Thank you, goodbye!" Bigui took the deed of sale, and her steps were unusually light. After so many years, I finally got my wish.
When Zi Yifeng knew that Du Zhigao didn't care about his father and left with the little concubine, his eyes were red with anger. It seems that it is useless to keep this Du Heng, so it is better to send him directly to Yicheng.
"Come on, give Du Heng this waste, give this king a thousand cuts, I want him to live rather than die. If you dare to calculate this king, I want him to regret being born in this world. ā
Zi Yifeng, who was furious, couldn't wait to find Du Zhigao and capture him back. It's just that it's inconvenient now, and it can't be done. At this critical moment, he will definitely not lose the big because of the small.
When Du Heng was tortured and had a breath left, Zi Yicheng naturally knew every move of the Six Princes' Mansion. Seeing that Zi Yifeng indirectly helped Du Yi and disposed of the eyesore one by one, he felt a lot happier in his heart.
However, less than an hour later, when a letter reached him, all the good moods were shattered.
"Xunying, recall Xunlei, Xunhuo, this king wants to go to the Blue Sea Country in person!"
After saying this, he used all his strength, and even the hand holding the letter was trembling, and after a while, the letter paper that was originally pinched in his hand fell to the ground. Swift Shadow was about to turn around and go out, when he saw the letter paper that had fallen in front of him, he picked it up and glanced at it quickly.
"Master!" Xunying's voice tightened, the princess was gone, and even Ziding was gone. There are so many secret guards and maidservants around the princess, all of them are good at one enemy and five enemies, and now their whereabouts are unknown, what does this mean?
"Call them all back, let them follow behind the Marquis of Zhongyong and the others, Kun'er, you go there yourself. In addition, he called back to the original to go back to the capital to watch, and Yu Ziheng followed the king. You take this tiger talisman with you, transfer 50,000 troops to Chaocheng, and this king will take the first step!"
Zi Yicheng closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of determination.
He hasn't retreated from the soldiers in Chaocheng yet, plus 50,000 and the bomb, it's enough. This time, he asked the people of the Blue Ocean Country to open their eyes and see clearly who they couldn't afford to mess with.
