Chapter 121 Unlucky people have a reason
On the seventh day of the first month of November in the third year of Chongzhen, it snowed heavily in Guanzhong!
Overnight, the weather became extremely cold, and the cold wind swept up the snow and blocked the roads, so that even the most hardy jackdaws cowered in their nests and did not dare to show their heads.
Qian Duoduo was wearing a green cotton robe and carrying a small bamboo basket, collecting snow on frozen chrysanthemum flowers.
"Qian Duoduo, what are you doing sweeping the snow from the flowers?"
Xiao Chu, who was already fat into a ball, showed a round face out of the window and asked in surprise.
Qian Duoduo replied with a smile: "The cold fragrance of chrysanthemums has soaked these white snow, and it is just right to store it for tea." ”
"Huh? Is there any difference between the snow on the chrysanthemum and the snow on the ground? ”
Qian Duoduo glanced at Feng Yingdao, who was concentrating on writing, through the window: "This is naturally different, the snow on the plum blossom petals is the best, but there are no plum blossoms here, so I have to use chrysanthemums to make a while, which is better than no flowers at all." ”
"Oh, Money, what are we going to eat today?"
Qian Duoduo approached the window, raised his hand and pinched Xiao Chu's chubby face and said, "I've eaten so many days of sliver meat, haven't you eaten enough?" ”
Xiao Chu shook his head and said, "I can't eat enough in my life." ”
Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "Yes, last year, it was difficult for the family to eat a bite of white rice, but I didn't expect that after only a year, there was meat to eat at home." ”
Xiao Chu said regretfully: "There is a lot of money, when the snow melts, we will go back to the stone pillar when the road opens, and we will never be able to eat the strips of meat you made again." ”
Qian Duoduo pinched Xiao Chu's fat face again and said, "It's okay, I'll fry some meatballs for you when you leave, and keep them for eating on the road." ”
"Qian Duoduo, you are so good, I will never forget you for the rest of my life."
Qian Duoduo chuckled, "I'll remember you too." ”
With that, he carried the bamboo basket back to his room to tinker with her cold perfume.
Xiao Chu returned to Feng Ying's side disappointed, looked at the salute that had been packed, and sighed heavily.
Feng Ying looked up at the maid who was almost formless, and said with a smile: "Save more fat now, and after you return to the stone pillar, you will lose weight." ”
"Miss, you just watched me being fed fat, didn't you?" Xiao Chu fell into Feng Ying's arms and was coquettish.
Feng Ying hugged Xiao Chu and whispered: "You are a glutton, you have followed me since you were a child, but you have never eaten a few good meals."
Now that you have the opportunity, it is your wish to have a few delicious meals.
It's nothing to eat fat, and when you return to Shizhu, you have to be urged by Mrs. Qin to practice martial arts, and you will lose weight in a few days.
Now, this Yun Zhao owes us half of the arsenal, and we naturally want to get some benefits back.
Until we get proper compensation, we have to eat and drink here to be counted as him.
Uncle Peng, Uncle Harrier, they are not easy to come forward, we can only be sisters to deal with this Yun Zhao, everyone is a child, no matter how much trouble they make, they will not tear their faces.
Well, now, we didn't get half of the arsenal, but we got a lot of new crop seeds.
I asked Mr. Xu about these new crops that are suitable for growing on mountainous land like Shizhu, and I want to feed everyone in my family more than the weapons in the arsenal. ”
Xiao Chu lay in Feng Ying's arms, put his index finger in his mouth and said aggrievedly: "The food we planted was originally enough to eat......
Feng Ying sighed and said: "The army wants food when it starts fighting, the army needs food for fighting, and the army needs food to defend the capital, don't blame Mrs. Qin." ”
Xiao Chu nodded, looked at Feng Ying again, and said, "Are we really going to leave the stone pillar?" ”
Feng Ying nodded and said: "It's to leave, there are already people who are very dissatisfied with us, if we still want to continue to live in the stone pillar, those boys who have grown up will go to the battlefield and die for Emperor Zhu Ming."
Before she died, my mother told me that we were not allowed to work for Emperor Zhu Ming, and that anyone who gave his life to Emperor Zhu Ming would not end well.
I just want to take my brothers and sisters to farm the land and live well, I don't want to sell my life to anyone, this time I got a lot of money from Yunzhao, we can build our own village in the mountains, plus these new grains, we can always live. ”
"However, the land of the stone pillars belongs to the Ma family, and they refuse to give it to us."
"Then leave the stone pillar and live on our own!"
While the two were talking, two Tsing Yi family members walked in carrying a brazier, put it in the room, checked the vents again, and found no problems, so they exited Feng Ying's room.
"These people, like Uncle Peng and Uncle Harrier, all came down from the battlefield, Miss, you see, they all have disabilities."
Before the two Tsing Yi families left, Xiao Chu hurriedly told the young lady about his new discovery.
"There are seventeen disabled families like the Yun family."
"Miss, did you find out?"
"I have long found out that these people all came to the Yun clan at the same time, and their disabilities are all recent, and they are not yet suitable for the life of disability.
According to Uncle Peng's estimates, after a big battle, there is not one in ten who can survive the seriously injured.
It seems that the Yun clan fought a big battle this summer, and the number of dead and wounded was more than two hundred.
Judging from the current appearance of the Yun clan, this battle was won by the Yun clan, and more than 200 people were lost in one battle, and Uncle Peng guessed that the Yun clan had at least more than 1,000 people.
Uncle Peng also said to Uncle Harrier that the strength of the Yun clan has been achieved, and the reason why we are treated politely at present is because of the relationship between everyone and the Qi family.
Therefore, the matter of the arsenal can not be mentioned again, and without offending the Yun clan, it is what we can do to ask for more benefits. ”
"His family is so rich, well, there is a lot of food."
Feng Ying smiled and pushed away Xiao Chu's heavy body and said, "As long as we are willing to work hard to farm, we will be so rich." ”
The charcoal fire in the brazier beeped and burned, and the room soon warmed up.
Xiao Chu looked at the charcoal fire and whispered, "Miss, shall we eat roasted sweet potatoes?" This morning, Qian Shaoshao and Yun Zhao were roasting sweet potatoes in the study, and I smelled the fragrance. ”
Feng Ying smiled: "Okay, anyway, we don't have anything to do on a snowy day, so we will roast sweet potatoes and eat them, remember to take the smallest one, and we will use the big ones as seeds." ”
Hearing that there was something to eat, Xiao Chu happily ran out to get sweet potatoes, the smile on Feng Ying's face gradually faded, and he looked at the jade mountain in the wind and snow and muttered to himself: "I don't believe that there is no place for us in this world!" ”
Yun Zhao's study is as warm as spring, mainly because Yun Zhao likes to use earth dragons, so he specially found someone in his study to lay the earth dragon before winter came.
It is very simple to lay the floor of the house, just dig up the ground of the room, lay the flue with green bricks, then cover the flue with triple soil, and finally lay the green bricks, set up a stove outside the house, as long as the stove is lit when winter comes, and constantly throw coal or firewood into it, the natural warmth in the house is like spring.
There are only three rooms in the house where the Yun family lays the earth dragon, which belong to Yun Niang, the sisters and Yun Zhao.
Fauber refused to lay a dragon in the house even after he was killed, which, according to his simple and stubborn philosophy, was a kind of transgression.
Yun Zhao didn't care about these things, but Fu Bo was stubborn, so there was no such thing in the house where Yun Meng and the others lived.
He Renlong was heavily reprimanded by Hong Chengchou for fifty boards, and he was demoted from a garrison to a centurion.
In this letter, Hong Chengchou had a heavy grudge against us and blamed me for not helping He Renlong, which led to him being roasted on the fire by Zhang Daodao's civil officials. ”
Yun Zhaoyang raised the letter in his hand, and said little about the money that was turning over the roasted sweet potatoes on the small stove.
Major Qian Shao turned over the roasted squeaky sweet potatoes and said, "It's not about our family, I don't think I should do anything." ”
"I think so too, you bake more sweet potatoes, and after a while, Yunyang, Yunjuan, Yunshu, Yunfei, and Yunshu are all back, and this sweet potato must not be enough."
Qian Shaoshao's ears moved, and he said to Yun Zhao with a smile: "It's already here." ”
Before the words fell, Yun Zhao heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the courtyard, and soon, Yun Yang's high-pitched and loud voice appeared outside the courtyard.
"Yuan San, hurry up and take my horse to the stable, add more good materials, don't forget to put on a horse coat, I ran a sweat just now, don't freeze."
Yun Zhao moved his body to the corner of the bed, he knew what kind of virtue his brothers were, as long as they came, they would definitely squeeze into the bed.
The door was pushed open with a bang, and the cold wind swept snowflakes in from outside the door, Yun Yang, who was wearing a sheepskin jacket, took off his leather jacket as soon as he entered the door, hugged Qian Shaoshao under his ribs, and threw it away after a fierce intimacy, and said to Yun Zhao who was sitting on the bed: "How about we make a big deal?" ”
Yun Zhao smiled: "Why did you forget the rules of stealing rain and not snow?" ”
Yun Yang laughed and said, "The family heirloom craft, if you don't perform it for a long time, I'm worried that you will forget it."
Qian Shaoshao, didn't you follow Xiao Zhao to Xi'an Mansion six days ago? Can that Mingyue Tower be robbed again? ”
