"If the old man has something to say, he might as well speak up."

After the meal, Lu Weimang said directly.

She just has a good impression of sincere people, but she is not completely heartless.

From the appearance of this old man to the current hospitality, Lu Weimang can certainly see that the old man has something to ask for.

This old man listened to Lu Weimang's words, but twisted it, "Hey, I didn't expect you to come here with the little boy, our Yumen food is simple, why don't I give the little boy a sweet mouth?" ”

Lu Weimang glanced at his son, he followed himself, never picky eater, since he could eat some complementary food, he ate vegetables and fruits happily, and steamed eggs with minced meat was even more appetizing, so now he ate a fragrant gold and silver rice, and now he is holding his stomach in Xiao Xia's arms with a delicious aftertaste.

Lu Weimang waved his hand, "Don't worry about him, you just say it." ”

Lao Suo saw Lu Weimang's insistence, and saw Huo Hou blowing hot tea, and he didn't say much, as if he was usual, so he put his heart down and looked at Lu Weimang solemnly.

"Lao Suo Darang, is a native of Yongzhou, starting from a small official, survived several chief officials, has a different kind of emotion for Yumen in his heart, I don't want to be old, I will be buried here in the future, watching Yumen gradually submerge under the desert, and there is no human population. The old man does not expect that Yumen can be like Jincheng to get a great creation, but only hopes that the people of Yumen here can have food and drink in the future, and will no longer be forced to leave their hometown. ”

When Lu Weimang heard this, he was not surprised, he could make the old man so earnest, and he was not selfish, it must be for this side of the land.

Lu Weimang didn't say anything at the moment, but followed Lao Suo through this famous Yumen Pass in this day.

The whole pass feels like a dead air.

"Those who have the ability are gone, and go east to the place where they can grow food and eat enough."

Suo Darang followed Lu Weimang's side and introduced.

"In the past, Yumen was prosperous for many years, and then the desert came, the former dynasty fell, and the popularity also dispersed. At present, only the land in the east of the city is better, and there is some land in the north and south of the city, but the number of people cultivating it is gradually decreasing. The young and the able to move all went to the east, where there were old and young women and children, waiting to die. Those who have a conscience haven't stood up and come back to pick them up, and those who don't have a heart simply throw away their home here in Yumen. ”

Lu Weimang walked all the way, looking all the way, except for the hurried merchants, only the numb locals were leaning against the wall to count the time.

"Let's go back!"

Huo Jing grabbed Lu Weimang, who wanted to look at it any longer, he knew that Lu Weimang's heart was too soft and too easy to empathize, and seeing this lifeless city would also affect his state of mind, so he opened his mouth to stop it.

Lu Weimang did not object, did not insist on walking through the city, and returned to the county office where he temporarily settled.

"Hey, it's the old man who is too anxious, Lord Lu has just arrived, rest early, and come back tomorrow!"

Suo Darang's words made Huo Jing glare at him, but he stepped back, leaving the husband and wife in place.

"This old man is really interesting."

Lu Weimang said with a smile.

Huo Jing sighed, "People are old and fine, he knows that you care about the people, and you won't care about him, so you have to make inches." ”

Lu Weimang smiled lightly, "Lao Suo has no desire, he doesn't need us to help him get promoted, and he doesn't want to get any more money and land, so he naturally talks to us casually, it's okay, it's okay, it's interesting." ”

Along the way, the chief officials of each city were respectful to Lu Weimang and Huo Jing, Lu Weimang didn't dare to have a deep friendship with them, and she felt more comfortable if she didn't want anything.

"Madam, the little boy has been asleep after a bumpy day."

After Xiao Xia whispered, he also retreated.

Along the way, they have already had a tacit understanding, and there is no need to keep the false etiquette all the time.

Lu Weimang entered the room and glanced at his sweet son who was sleeping on the small bed, "It's good to be able to eat and sleep!" ”

This son seems to be picked up, she doesn't need to bother at all, he eats a lot, and sleeps soundly at a while, which is just right for a mother like her who has no heart and lungs, and is not careful and patient.

"Thanks to his temperament, I am afraid that I will suffer under my hands!"

Lu Weimang touched his son's little face and teased himself.

Huo Jing reached out and took her hand and touched her son's hand, "When he grows up, he will know how lucky it is for you to raise it." Don't talk about it, at least you won't control him too much. ”

Lu Weimang nodded, "That's right, I don't have enough mental strength to only care about myself and my own affairs, he can only grow freely." ”

Huo Jing smiled lightly when he heard this, as if he thought of the past when he was raised by his parents when he was a child.

"Here in Yumen, it's really a lot worse than I imagined, and I feel like it's like this."

Lao Suo's words made it not difficult for her to imagine the process of gradually falling lonely from a famous city here.

Huo Jing pulled Lu Weimang up and blocked her thinking, "I'm anxious to see Yumen Pass, you're tired from traveling today, hurry up and wash up and sleep for a while, and I'll talk about it later." Don't you often tell Changfeng and Cheng Yang that there is no need to rush everything, just take your time? ”

Huo Jing pushed Lu Weimang to wash, and Lu Weimang happily obeyed.

Resting peacefully at night, Lu Weimang really slept deeply.

"After washing, come and eat some melons and fruits, I don't know if the melons and fruits taste really good!"

Waking up early in the morning, sweating profusely, and eating a piece of cold water melons and fruits after cleaning, Lu Weimang only felt refreshed.

"It's sandy and sweet, it's even better than the melons and fruits that Kyoto paid tribute!"

picked up another piece and put it in his mouth, Lu Weimang also took a small piece to tease Xiao Huo, who had already gotten up.

"He's already eaten a lot and can't eat any more."

Huo Jing handed Xiao Huo in his arms to Xiao Qiu and the nurse, ignoring his son's excited opening of his hands to the melons and fruits handed over by Lu Weimang.

Lu Weimang smacked his lips and was angry at his son, "Your father won't let me, I have no choice but to eat it myself!" ”

Xiao Xia couldn't help but laugh, hugged the little boy who was about to blow up the hair, and used toys to attract his attention.

Lu Weimang ate three pieces in a row before he finally stopped, and after cleaning his hands, he looked at Huo Jing beside him.

At this time, it was the second quarter of the hour, Huo Jing's habit could not be moved, so he would get up to practice guns and boxing, and after washing up, he would have breakfast, and if he had nothing to do, he would pass the time with a book in his hand.

Lu Weimang has also developed the same routine over the years, but he was very tired yesterday, and he got up late today.

Taking the book in Huo Jing's hand, Lu Weimang lost interest after a glance and handed it to Huo Jing again. She still likes to read local chronicles, travelogues and official chronicles.

"What are your plans for today?"

Huo Jing was interrupted by Lu Weimang reading a book, and he knew that she had something to do, and asked.

"I didn't plan to, I should have seen it yesterday, but I didn't have a clue, and now I'm bored and panicked."

When Lu Weimang has no clue about doing things, this is the case.

Huo Jing smiled and got up, "Let's go, I'll accompany you out of the city for a walk." ”

"Hey, hey..."

Lu Weimang happily followed.
