Chapter 271: Can You Blame Me
In March, the noisy and noisy spring came to an end between joy and sorrow, different from the previous recommendations, eight or nine out of ten of the children of the family were unsuccessful, but they were many famous people on the list of poor scholars, and Du Ji, who won the first list in one fell swoop, was appointed by Dong Zhuo to stay by his side as a military priest.
Different from the past, because Chunfu is not limited to scholars, in agriculture, industry, and commerce also have their own examination subjects, all of them come down, recruiting nearly 300 people, until mid-March, after Li Ru and Cai Yong were assessed again, these people were assigned to various places, or for a county guard, or for an army Sima, or for agriculture to travel around, or stay in Chang'an, and were arranged to enter many positions,
In March, it is the time when the grass grows and the warbler flies, and after the spring season, after several months of busyness, Dong Zhuo rarely has a leisure.
Several migrations, although the number of people in Chang'an City has not exceeded one million now, there is not much difference, on the outskirts of the city, the villages are numerous, fertile fields for thousands of miles, on the field paths, from time to time there are children playing and playing, the crisp laughter will be embellished in the early morning with a different vividness, on the official road, a convoy is gradually approaching, a pole of Dong Zi Daxu swings in the wind, and slowly stops on the side of the road,
"Mother, be careful." On the carriage at the front, Dong Zhuo didn't wait for the carriage to stop, he jumped down from it all of a sudden, and then walked quickly to the back, bowed down and lifted the curtain with one hand, and stretched out the other hand to make a support, only then did he make a low voice,
"My son doesn't have to be like this, although my mother is old, she still walks." Having said that, Dong's mother did not refuse Dong Zhuo's kindness, gently put her skinny and rough hand on Dong Zhuo's hand, and slowly walked out of the carriage with her waist bowed, and then looked at the fields outside in a daze.
Dong's mother seemed to be thoughtful, Dong Zhuo bowed and waited without making a sound, but after a while, the ladies in the carriage behind also got off the carriage and gathered one after another, and an eleven or twelve-year-old girl jumped to Dong Zhuo's side, looked up at Dong's mother and laughed crisply: "Grandma is not old, grandma will live a hundred years." ”
"Hehe, okay, grandma is not old, grandma still has to watch the white girl get married." After coming back to her senses, Dong's mother couldn't help but touch the girl's head lovingly, and smiled hehe, saying that they are next generation, Dong Bai and Dong's mother are separated by two generations, and on weekdays, Dong's mother looks at Dong Bai the closest.
"Grandmother ......" Dong Bai was a little shy when he heard this, and looked at Dong's mother and shouted,
"Mother, my son helped you down." Stretched out his hand and nodded on Dong Bai's forehead, looking at his granddaughter who was baring his teeth and pouting, Dong Zhuo also smiled, then raised his hands and supported it hard in front of Dong's mother, and then said again,
"It's been so many years, my mother has seen such a scene again, it's hard for me." got off the carriage, looked at the surrounding fields in a blink of an eye, and looked at the quiet and peaceful scenery everywhere, Dong's mother couldn't help sighing, she lived for decades, after the second emperor, it was better in the early years, and when Dong Zhuo began to be an official, the world was already full of smoke, and the cool land was even worse, so there was such a sigh,
"Mother, the world will get better and better." Seeing that Dong's mother was sentimental, Dong Zhuo hurriedly comforted,
"Mother's ......"
"Mother's ......"
Soon, a group of daughters-in-law stepped forward to give Dong's mother a salute, especially when she saw Feng Qian and Liu Yue, Dong's mother's smiling eyebrows and eyes were piled up.
If you want to say that Dong Zhuo was good at everything before, it was to make Dong's mother worry about this heir, although Dong Zhuo had a son before, he died after having Dong Bai, and after that, Dong Zhuo did not give birth to an heir, originally Dong's mother was afraid that Dong Zhuo would give birth to an heir, but she didn't want to see pity in the sky, Feng Qian and Liu Yue were pregnant at this time, how could Dong's mother not be surprised,
"Mother, let's go, the second brother has been waiting for a long time." After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, seeing that Dong's mother agreed, he supported Dong's mother to take the lead.
"My lord, everything is ready." Seeing Dong Zhuo coming, Xu Chu rarely suppressed his voice, stood still in front of Dong Zhuo and whispered,
"Alright, let the soldiers disperse, leave some people on guard, and let the rest be arranged." Nodding, Dong Zhuo said directly without thinking,
On this trip, Dong Zhuo brought all the dependents in the family, even his son-in-law Li Ru and Niu Fu brought them, there are many female dependents in the house, and naturally there are hundreds of maids who serve with him, there are hundreds of people, how can he do it without the support of soldiers, Dong Zhuo simply ordered two thousand guards to follow, but in this way, it also made this outing obviously cumbersome,
sent Xu Chu away, Dong Zhuo was also busy, not to mention Dong's mother and Dong Bai, he also had Liu Yue, Feng Qian, Zhen Jiang, Zou Rong and other wives and concubines on his side, as well as Cai Yan, Zhen Mi, and Wu Amaranth, more than ten people's meals had to be prepared by him, and beside him, there was only one second brother Dong Min who played soy sauce infinitely, it was good not to help, and it was really impossible to count on him to cook.
However, Dong Zhuo obviously thinks highly of himself,
This is different from later generations, everything is bought and processed directly, and even the fire is natural gas, and it starts directly as soon as the fire is hit, and finally set up a shelf to support the cooking pot, but Dong Zhuo was stunned to find that the firewood is lit, no matter how strong it burns, it is difficult for the flame to rush to the bottom of the pot, so he had no choice but to dismantle the shelf and rebuild it, only this time there was soot, but after a moment's effort, he and Dong Min both became big black faces,
"Grandma, look at you, grandpa is so stupid." Although the others were talking, their eyes would still glance at the two of them from time to time, Dong's mother was so happy that she laughed, and the others also covered their mouths and snickered when they saw it, but Dong Bai was still young, and he had no scruples about being childish, and when he saw it, he pointed at Dong Zhuojiao and snorted,
"You can kill people, killing chickens shouldn't be a problem, I'll kill chickens to ......" Dong Bai's voice was not small, Dong Zhuo's old face suddenly became darker when he heard it, Dong Min couldn't hold back, squeaked and laughed, and after glaring at Dong Min fiercely, Dong Zhuo picked up a knife and muttered to the chickens and birds brought by everyone,
“…… Can you blame me for this? Dong Min's laughter stopped abruptly, and he couldn't help but be a little speechless in his heart, so he simply turned his head and turned a blind eye to Dong Zhuo's actions.
Originally, when Dong Zhuo decided to take his family to the Qingqing, Xu Chu was ready to bring the cooks in the house, but he was vetoed by Dong Zhuo and insisted on doing it himself.
"Huh." Dong Min's aggrieved, Dong Zhuoli ignored it, walked to a cage, reached out and grabbed the neck of a chicken, and then pressed it on the wooden pier next to it, the blade flashed, and slashed on the wooden pier, the chicken head and body were separated instantly, the blood was sprayed, and after a few struggles, he didn't move again.
Dong Zhuo laughed when he saw this, shook the chicken blood on his knife and said, "Sure enough, killing chickens is the easiest." ”
