Chapter Ninety-Nine: Plan Early
Tang Juan heard that he was going to help, and went home to talk to Qin Si.
Qin Si heard that he wanted to join her, "It's not a trivial matter if the child is lost, one more person has one more chance, let's go." ”
Tang Juan locked the door with him and went out, "Xianggong likes children very much? ”
Fortunately, she is already in good health.
Qin Si smiled, "It's not because of this, it's good that the two girls don't have an accident." ”
As the day approached, the people of the village went into the mountains with torches to look for them.
Tang Juan pulled Qin Si, and together with Xinghua, Boss Tang and Qin Guangwei walked fast in front and looked for it quickly.
"So someone saw the two children go into the mountains? Then why don't you stop it? Qin Si asked.
Xinghua sighed and explained, "At that time, I watched the two of them mow the grass, and none of the children in this village had to help the family do some work, so the people who watched didn't care, and when it was late, the Zhao family found that the family's money was gone, and asked everywhere who stole the money, and then remembered that the two children didn't come back all afternoon." ”
Tang Wan frowned, "Then how do you know that you didn't run out?" ”
"Sister Liang was working at the entrance of the village all afternoon, and said that she didn't see the two of them, so it should be in the mountains."
Qin Si looked at the dimly lit mountain forest, and vaguely felt that he had a bad premonition.
The people in the village shouted while looking for it, but the sky was completely dark, the mountain road was difficult to walk, and no one was found.
I usually go to mow the grass to find wild vegetables, dig bamboo shoots, find herbs, and hunt for the places under the hunting traps, and some sturdy men have to come out after looking for a while in the mountains.
Everyone went down the mountain one after another, and the woman cried and cursed, but between the words, there was a lot of distress for the money from selling grain.
The men of the Zhao family scolded while scolding, scolding women and children, and at the same time they had to beat, but they were stopped by the villagers.
It was ugly, Qin Si shook his head, and pulled Tang Juan to go home.
The group went home, and after entering the house, Qin Si and Tang Juan went to cook dinner, and asked about the eldest girl and the second girl.
"The eldest girl is not very good-looking, she is an ordinary child, and her personality is also boring, plus there are no boys in the Zhao family, and the girls are not expensive, and the sisters are very sad at home anyway, and the eldest girl can't marry when she is old, so she has to pay taxes." Tang Juan explained in a muffled voice.
Qin Si immediately coaxed her, "Who said that girls are not expensive, my family is the most expensive, in the future, we will also have girls, spoil princesses, and recruit me as a good son-in-law." ”
The woman couldn't help laughing, "Thinking too far, spoiling a princess, outsiders are only afraid to say it." ”
She used to be often told in the village that what kind of girl was born to marry and raise someone so well, what to do, to raise children for other people's families and so on.
Qin Si corrected her thoughts while rolling noodles, "Only short-sighted people can say that, boys and girls are the same, and there have been female generals in this dynasty." ”
This is not nonsense, it is true, he has made great contributions to the world with Emperor Taizu.
Tang Juan was attracted to attention, "Female general? ”
"Want to hear it? Then I'll tell you about it in the evening. Qin Si neatly pulled the noodles and put them into the pot.
Tonight, I ate oily noodles, so the noodles are two fingers wide and stretched long.
Qin Si prefers rice and noodles to steamed buns, but the family often eats steamed buns, after all, they are easy to make and easy to preserve, and eating rice is even rarer.
Qin Si has observed that the rice sold in the shop here is simply shelled, and the rice grains are not fine, no wonder they don't like to eat it.
The quality of rice is very different in different places, the rice grown here is hard, slightly long, the taste is not full and there is obvious astringency, and it is not very fragrant when cooked.
What Qin Si ate in Suyun Mansion was better.
I don't know if I can move to Suyun Mansion earlier, in fact, I don't have to go when I take the exam, what if I go early next year?
The exam in April, after the New Year, etc., can be dissolved in the field, and you can go in March, and you should go a few days early to get used to the place when you take the exam.
After dinner in the evening, Qin Si mentioned it to Tang Juan.
"The exam is a big deal, these ministers will decide, I listen to the ministers, and everything at home is easy to arrange." Tang Juan said immediately.
Qin Si hugged her and leaned into his arms, "Wanwan is not worried that I can't pass the exam, and the bamboo basket is empty?" ”
Tang Juan laughed, "I'm naturally not worried, if I really can't pass the exam, then it's good to do it again, and isn't the new master of Xianggong in Suyun Mansion." ”
"After I got married at the time, I said that I would only take the exam this time, and Wanwan couldn't give me luck." Qin Si said coquettishly.
Tang Juan looked at him solemnly, "But I think Xianggong is studying very seriously, and the master also praises Xianggong, if it is only a little bit worse by then, then I will definitely want Xianggong to come again." ”
"I don't know how Xianggong studied when he was at home in the past, but it shouldn't be better than now, and I know that Xianggong doesn't want to raise his eyebrows and make his family live better, so how can I not support it."
These words made Qin Si's heart sour, and he couldn't help but hug someone and kiss him.
Tang Juan pressed the young man's shoulder, only let him kiss him for a while, and then blew the lamp to sleep, so as not to fall asleep and rub in her arms until midnight before turning off the fire.
Qin Si pulled the quilt and rolled over and told her the story of the founding female general.
There are many heroines, and he can talk about them one by one.
The next day, unfortunately, it rained heavily from early in the morning, and the team that was going to go up the mountain to find people had to return.
At this time, everyone actually knows in their hearts, and it is estimated that these two children are more than lucky.
deliberately brought money into the mountain, if you want to say that you don't have a will to die in your heart, you don't believe it.
How harsh the Zhao family usually has to treat these two children in order to make them hate so much in their hearts.
The people in the village were a little embarrassed, but the rain prevented them from entering, in case an accident happened.
And it's so big, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the mountain today.
The Tang family didn't go out, they each looked for a job to be busy, Tang Boss and Qin Guangwei worked together to figure out carpenter work, Qin Si studied, and Tang Juan sewed clothes.
Since the opening of the restaurant and lo-mei stall, there are few times when the family is so idle during the day, let alone now that the shop has opened again, it is often Qin Si who can't find Tang Juan.
Tang Juan was already direct and generous, but now he is even more timid, and he has a little vision, and he has a lot less jerky in his gestures.
Qin Si fell in love with Tang Xuan's indifferent smile, watching her take care of her business with ease, and she was fascinated when she returned.
After another day, the villagers finally found the two children.
The body was already cold, and the two sisters committed suicide by hanging their necks from a tree hand in hand.
The two also had a strip of red cloth tied around their wrists.
Everyone rescued the child in silence, and the woman who rushed to the house when she heard the sound hurriedly rummaged through the money bag, and when she found that there was none, she hurriedly asked, "Where did you find someone, take me quickly!" ”
Tang Xuan's face couldn't bear it, and he turned around and went home angrily.
"Wanwan?" Qin Si hurriedly caught up.
"That kind of death is the most decent, and you can enjoy happiness in the future." Tang Juan explained in a low voice.
