Looking for relatives Second, the Dragon Boat Festival is quiet and cold

Ye Fei is the kind of person who is more traditional, and Li Xuanqing's behavior does not conform to the temperament of everyone in his mind. But to be honest, Ye Fei also likes this little girl a little.

Mencius said: I am good at raising my heroic and righteous spirit. And Li Xuanqing's body just has this kind of righteousness.

This kind of righteous qi Ye Fei also had before, but that was when he was young. As he grew older day by day, as well as the polishing of officialdom, his righteousness was not much left.

Ye Fei admired Li Xuanqing's personality very much, but as a girl in the boudoir, Ye Fei was not very satisfied.

This kind of ambivalence made Ye Fei not know how to choose.

Therefore, he had an idea, an idea that he himself felt should not be. But at this moment, Li Tianshou actually took the initiative to put forward his undesirable thoughts. "Brother Ye, if you have time, let Ling Gongzi often come to my house to sit. ”

A woman who has not left the pavilion should stay in the boudoir all day long, reading, embroidering, how can she see people casually. Because of this, although Ye Fei had the intention to let the two children meet, it was not easy to speak. Even if Li Xuanqing was in the field all day long, he couldn't put forward this idea of being rude.

Fortunately, Li Tianshou made this suggestion first, and Ye Fei didn't have to speak.

In this case, let the two children meet. Even if it doesn't work out in the end, it's good to walk around and feel emotional.

A few days later, a frequent visitor to the Li family came - Ye Tianhua.

As soon as he saw Ye Tianhua, Li Tianshou liked it very much.

I have long heard that Ye Tianhua is a talent, but when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation.

In a few days, Ye Fei also accompanied his son to visit Li Tianshou, mainly to see Li Xuanqing.

Because since he came back that day, Ye Tianhua has been thinking about this Li Xuanqing in his heart. Ye Tianhua's literary style can be regarded as recognized by most of his colleagues, but since he came back from Li Tianshou's house that day, he has often wandered when he is studying. When I take the school exam, there are often times when I can't answer the answer.

For this reason, Ye Fei also wants to see what kind of person Li Xuanqing is who makes his son unrelenting.

I saw that the person is very beautiful and pure, and he also reveals a beautiful temperament in his bones. Although it is not idle for a moment, it is an expression of youthful vitality. Sure enough, it's my son, and his vision is not bad at all.

It was very uncomfortable to be stared at all the time, but his father and eldest brother repeatedly told him, and Li Xuanqing had to endure it.

Maybe he felt that it was rude to stare at others all the time, Ye Fei coughed dryly, then chatted with Li Tianshou and asked the juniors to leave first.

Now what the two are talking about is naturally the marriage of the two families.

However, this is all wishful thinking, and the matter of marriage has been the order of parents and the words of matchmakers since ancient times. Consult with your children just to let them know about it, not to ask for their consent. What's more, these two people are "you love me", and they are waiting to choose an auspicious day.

As soon as he left the living room, Li Xuanqing was like a wild bird out of the cage, immediately recovering his true nature, and told his cousin about his plan to break into the rivers and lakes.

As soon as she said the beginning, Li Xuanyi understood what she meant.

But Li Xuanyi will never let this girl go out to find out the truth behind the murderous heart. What's more, he also vaguely understood what it meant to see people today.

Sure enough, within a few days, the Ye family sent someone to give a dowry and set a wedding date.

Hearing this news, Li Xuanqing was naturally unwilling. In her mind, of course, it is to brave the rivers and lakes and act chivalrous. She can't stand her husband and children at home.

Although she quarreled with her father many times, her father agreed to this family affair this time, no matter how much trouble she had, it was useless. "What's wrong with Ye Gongzi, a talent, and a child of an official family, what are you not satisfied with. ”

Originally, this was already an ironclad thing, but the sky did not follow people's expectations, and there was a fork in it, and it was not a small fork.

To be precise, it should be a thing that shakes the government and the opposition.

Wang Shouren, the upright leader in the DPRK and the head of the military department, was demoted for his crimes.

As soon as Wang Shouren had an accident, the situation between the DPRK and China immediately became unclear.

An upright person has no backbone for a while, and he doesn't dare to act rashly, and a neutral person like Ye Fei can't see the future development, so he has to close his door and say goodbye, and even postpone the marriage date, so as not to be tongued and fall into the trap.

Hearing the news, Li Xuanyi's heart was heavy, but Li Xuanqing was like an ice thawing and a long drought (of course, it refers to the postponement of the marriage).

But the postponement is not the end, so we have to think of other ways.

But the family is very supportive of this marriage, and it is impossible to rely on them to help.

After thinking about it, the only thing that can work is to run away from home, and it is far away, so that no one in the family can find it.

But it's a pity that the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, and there is still a Li Xuanyi at home who is above her. No matter how carefully arranged she was, no matter how elaborate her disguise, she was always caught when she was about to go out.

Fortunately, my cousin had humanity and didn't tell my father about it, giving her the opportunity to abscond again and again. Li Xuanyi hopes that his cousin can recognize the facts in failure.

But the sky does not follow people's wishes, although it is unsuccessful every time, but Li Xuanqing has been defeated and defeated repeatedly, she firmly believes that as long as she insists on not giving up hope, she will definitely succeed.

Sure enough, her thoughts were rewarded by heaven. Just a few days ago, cousin Li Xuanyi was asked out by a few friends. It is not clear what the specific situation is, but it is certain that this matter must be related to Wang Shouren. Li Xuanyi was very concerned about this matter, so he had to give up monitoring his cousin and leave the house.

Li Xuanqing is very grateful to this Lord Wang who serves the country and the people, if it weren't for him, I am afraid that he would be married now. Even if he was demoted, he also created a chance for himself to escape

is also surnamed Li, and also because of Lord Wang, but Li Xuanyi is not happy at all.

Wang Shouren's accident, the court lost a pillar of pillars, and the people lost a reincarnation.

For this reason, there are three approaches in the world for this matter.

One of them is the practice of the evil martial arts, that is, killing, killing a hundred, and you can also ask for credit from the forces in the court that are dissatisfied with Wang Shouren. The people of this faction have a close relationship with the Korean East Factory, Jinyiwei, and so on, and their opinions are also very unanimous.

On the other hand, there are two views on the right path, one is to protect and the other is to save.

Bao believes that although Lord Wang is convicted, as long as the sentence is up, or the emperor pardons him, he can make a comeback and lead the courtiers to resist the traitors. As long as you protect Lord Wang during this period, so that he will not be harmed by evil people.

And the people who want to save think that the court is dim and has long been controlled by the eunuchs. Instead of putting hope on the faint king, it is better to let the world's beloved Lord Wang lead it. Their idea was to rescue Lord Wang halfway, follow the example of Song Jiang in the Song Dynasty, and erect the banner of "walking for the sky" in Shuibo Liangshan. Or like the founding kings of various dynasties, they rose up and planned the world.

And Li Xuanyi's friends all belong to the latter, and they called Li Xuanyi out this time for this matter.

Their reasons are very good, Lord Wang has a status in the hearts of the world's scholars, and his Li family is rich and rivals the country, and he often releases grain for disaster relief. If these two aspects cooperate, then the world will be in the bag. When the time comes, Lord Wang will win the world, and Li Xuanyi will be the founder of the country.

But Li Xuanyi was not so radical, he refuted everyone one by one.

First of all, Li Xuanyi believes that Liu Liu and Liu Qi have been doing things for many years, how can they give up their current achievements to others.

Secondly, the Ming Dynasty has been established for a long time, and such a long reign has made people all over the world hate to take out their hearts to show their loyalty. If Lord Wang chooses to occupy the mountain and stand on his own feet at this time, he will inevitably be spurned by the world's scholars, and where will the people's hearts come from at that time.

Of the three, half of the martial arts righteous path had to protect Lord Wang until he was released from prison. During this period, whether they came to assassinate or to save people, they were all their enemies. As the so-called "snipe and clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman", the two major forces of the righteous path fighting each other will only damage their own strength and allow the evil way to take advantage of it.

This reasoning finally convinced his friends, and finally made them all agree to protect Lord Wang first, and talk about anything later.

Li Xuanyi's words are not only for these friends of his, but also for those who hope that they can pass on their words to people who have the same radical ideas as them, and persuade them to think twice before doing things.

When he thought the matter had been settled, he returned home full of joy, and found that something had happened in his home.

Li Xuanqing finally escaped from this home.

Unlike in the past, this time she left a book and ran away. In the letter, she has made her position clear, and she will never come back if she does not cancel this marriage. Even if she is caught, she will not be able to compromise.

Running away from home this time is not a trivial matter of the young lady's temper, and now it is no longer his family's business, but also the Ye family's business.

Paper, after all, can't contain the fire, and soon the Ye family will know.

The marriage between the Ye family and the Li family is well known to the government and the opposition, if it was before, Ye Fei would definitely make a big fuss about the Li family and even withdraw from the marriage. But not now, and if you make such a fool of yourself, you may be able to save your life.

Therefore, Ye Fei still went to Li's house in this special period and had a long talk with Li Tianshou.

The result of the conversation was that in the current situation, it was not wise to hold a marriage immediately, but this family should not retreat.

Since the situation between the DPRK and China does not know when it will return to the previous mutual containment, the two families can use this time to find Li Xuanqing back.

In the past, every time he saw the second uncle, he always had a serious face. But this time we met, the second uncle no longer had the majesty and strength he used to have, and now, he was just a lonely old man.

As long as Li Xuanyi is at home, he will give it every day and ask for peace. But when he came back this time, Li Xuanyi found that the second uncle had aged a lot, not only his hair had turned a lot grayer, but the wrinkles on his face were also like knife carvings, which were deeply left on his face. The fitting clothes can't cover his thin body.

Li Xuanyi has always fulfilled the second uncle's request conscientiously, not to mention that this incident was the cousin's fault first, and it was a heavy blow to the second uncle. So even if the old man doesn't say it, he will find her back, so that he can give an explanation to the elders of the two families.

The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the traditional Chinese folk festival - the Dragon Boat Festival.

The Dragon Boat Festival is also known as Duanwu and Duanyang.

In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival has many other names, such as the Midday Festival, the Chongwu Festival, the May Festival, the Poet's Day, the Dragon Day, and so on.

There are many sayings about the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, such as commemorating Qu Yuan, commemorating Wu Zixu, commemorating Cao E, saying that the summer solstice festival of the three dynasties of Qi and Henan, and driving away the evil moon and evil sun.

Due to the vast area, the large number of ethnic groups, and the many stories and legends, not only have many different festival names have been produced, but also different customs have been produced in various places.

Its main contents are: dragon boat racing, hanging clock statues, welcoming ghost boats, hanging wormwood, eating five poison cakes, salted eggs, zongzi, etc.

Although there are still a few days before the Dragon Boat Festival, the atmosphere of the festival is obviously stronger.

At the bazaar, some people have already started selling zongzi. In some children playing, they can be seen wearing sachets. In the mountains and forests, you can see people picking herbs. You can also see the lively scene of dragon boats held in several villages.

But today, the village that Li Xuanyi passed through was very different from what he saw earlier.

This reminded him of the incident in Bafang City not long ago.

But on second thought, it shouldn't be possible. This village is not big, at most there are only about ten or twenty households, and if you want to practice, there are not enough here.

But seeing that this family is closed and every household is grounded, something must have happened.

Li Xuanyi is not the kind of person who likes to cause trouble, and he is not like his cousin who talks about chivalry and righteousness all day long. But if he really encounters that kind of injustice, he will definitely take care of it.

It's just that in this situation, he just wants to make a move, and he doesn't know what to do.

Suddenly, he remembered that he had heard a story in the teahouse before, that ordinary thieves like to go to the village to rob beauties. And they like to pretend to be polite, hire first, and wait until a certain festival to bring people up the mountain.

"It can't be such a coincidence that I met you, right?" Li Xuanyi said self-deprecatingly.

Just as he was about to leave the village, Li Xuanyi finally saw a family with the door open. An old woman in her seventies was sitting in front of the door making rice dumplings.

Li Xuanyi took a few steps forward, came to the old man, and gave a salute before he spoke: "Old mother, I am a foreigner below, passing by your land, and I want to beg for saliva to drink." ”

The old man raised his head, looked at Li Xuanyi with a pair of cloudy eyes, and at the same time wrapped the zongzi in his hand and put it in the dustpan on the ground, before standing up and saying, "This young master will wait for a while, and I will pour water for you." ”

So saying, the old man got up and went back to the house.

The old man was very old, and walked with small and unsteady steps, as if a gust of wind could push her there.

Despite this, the old man poured him a bowl of water and moved a stool for Li Xuanyi to sit on.

When the water was served, the old man smiled politely and said, "In the countryside, there is nothing to entertain, only a bowl of bitter tea, young master, don't dislike it." ”

The house behind the old man, on the mottled walls, had a lot of cracks. The yellowed window paper seems to turn into powder when the wind blows. The old man went in and out, and he didn't see anyone else. It can be seen that this home is not only surrounded by walls, but also the elderly are lonely.

There was only a small handful of tea leaves in the bowl, but it was the most enthusiastic she could come up with.

A person who lives to this age should be very cold to everything, but she is so enthusiastic about a stranger from outside, and it is the simplicity of her heart.

The old man was really innocent when he smiled, like an innocent child. But the wrinkles on her face seem to tell the world: I was once a child, and a child will always be me.

These wrinkles are like flowing water, flowing in the long river of time, without stopping. When it stops, it's a stagnant pool.

When Li Xuanyi, who had finished drinking tea, just sat down, the old man spoke again: "This young master, it's not that the old body wants to drive you away, it's just that it's not peaceful now, and it's not safe for you to stay here in this good clothes." ”

Following the old man's words, Li Xuanyi hurriedly asked: "Old mother, I also learned a little martial arts in Xia, as soon as I entered the village, I saw that there was a problem here, can you tell the matter below, maybe it can be solved in Xia." ”

"It's useless. The old man sighed: "In the past, there were people who knew martial arts who boasted about themselves, but none of them could solve it. And the bodies of these people were finally hung on a big tree outside the village, and after that, the people of the village no longer dared to ask outsiders to help. ”

"Old mother, your martial arts are higher than those people, and you may be able to solve your problems. ”

"Alas, you young people, why do you keep persuading? Not long ago, that girl was like this, and now you are like this, childe. Your temper is really similar, maybe you were a family in your last life. ”

As soon as he heard the girl, Li Xuanyi was excited, and hurriedly asked, "Old mother, the girl you saw is like this......

Telling her cousin's appearance, Li Xuanyi hoped that the girl was her cousin, but also hoped that she was not.

What is the problem in the village, is the girl in the old man's mouth Li Xuanqing, and can Li Xuanyi help the village solve the problem?
