- Chapter 136 - Countdown to the end (2)
In mid-October, Niu Dabao took his wife and little girl to Kyoto.
Along the way, the little girl Dan Tong kept buying and buying.
Compared to when Dan Zhu and Dan Qing were young, she had the best life.
“When your elder sister and elder brother were young, how could they have such a good life? At that time, we were poor and had no money at all. Your elder sister’s clothes were one piece all year round, and your elder brother even had no clothes to wear. already.”
When he is older, Niu Dabao likes to talk to his little girl about the past.
“You can’t even think about what you can eat every day, even in our dreams. You don’t like to eat sweet potatoes… This sweet potato is a life-saving thing, if we had it back then Sweet potatoes, so many people in the village will not starve to death.”
Whenever this time, Dan Tong would listen quietly, those human sufferings were things she had never experienced before.
Niu Dabao likes the little girl the most and is willing to listen to him talk about ancient times.
On the contrary, his wife rolled his eyes at him, a little impatient and her husband babbled again, and lifted the curtain of the car to look outside.
Niu Dabao has been to the former Kyoto before, but she has never been out of Yunzhou. Although she said that her family’s business has grown, she is only expanding in Yunzhou, and other places are not involved. She is very busy every day. There is no time to go out and see the world.
This time all the way to Kyoto, she saw a lot of new things.
At this time, their carriage was walking on the road in the suburbs of Beijing, but although it was the suburbs of Beijing, it was already very prosperous.
She saw a glutinous rice cake seller. The front of the stall was full of young children, and they all held a penny in their hands. It should be the adults who bought them glutinous rice cakes to eat.
There is also a place like an amusement park not far away, with simple slides, as well as some small wooden bowls, shovels, pots, buckets, and small furniture of various shapes.
If put together, it should be a small home.
However, compared with the amusement park, it is too simple here, and the places for children to play are full of sand, and the things the children play at home are all sand.
Just thinking about it, I saw a person handing some dry grass to the children inside, and the children cheered: “The vegetables are here, the vegetables they bought are delivered.”
She knew that the person who delivered the food should be taking care of them.
After another place, when I saw the big winter, there were actually a few old people chatting outside with their hands on their hands, and some were playing chess.
It turned out that a chessboard was made of big tree stumps under the tree, and four stone stumps were also made of cement. The old people were sitting there playing chess. Occasionally they heard a sentence: “General”, and a group of people began to express their opinions. As early as he saw from the side that there was a piece that could be captured, but the player who played chess couldn’t see it.
One said that your move was not good, and he had seen it long ago. According to his opinion, he should take a step and then a two-gun general.
The voices of the two became louder and louder, and after the carriage walked a few steps, their quarrels could still be heard.
Niu Dabao’s wife lowered the curtain of the car with a smile, and then when she returned to her senses, she heard that her husband was still talking to Dan Tong about the events before Xu Jiang.
“At that time, the poor were very poor. There were not many people in our place who could marry a daughter-in-law. It was your father and I who were quick to marry your mother.”
“Later, when I got a wife, I wasn’t alone, so I thought about how to make money, but you are a farmer who doesn’t know a lot of characters, what can you do besides farming? No one wants to do anything you do. you.”
Speaking of this, Niu Dabao was very glad that he entered the steel factory, “You think, your elder sister was several years old at that time, your father and me, according to the customs at that time, it is not young. , What do people want to go to the hall, the little servant, they are all looking for small, so it is difficult.
Niu Dabao’s wife remembered the difficult days at that time. She said: “Fortunately, that year, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess divided Xujiang County, saying that it was to be used as a special place for pilot projects.”
This Dantong knew that the people of Xujiang Mansion were all grateful for the kindness of Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. They were the first group of people to get rich, and now they rented the land and could support their family.
Now, because Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has spread the word, saying that she will be conferred on ministers in March next year, and in March next year, it happens that Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has been in government for ten years, so everyone starts to talk about the past ten years. history.
Then I found that Xujiang County, which was first divided into special test areas by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, is really enviable.
All good things start to be tried there. If nothing else, the iron and steel factory makes Xujiang County the leader of Yunzhou.
As a direct beneficiary, Niu Dabao has a great say.
Thinking of what happened before, he was excited and said: “You don’t know, at the beginning, we all felt like we were dreaming – how could there be such a good place, although work is tiring, but for meat to eat, that big steamed bun , it’s not adulterated at all, I’ll eat one, and I’ll have the rest when I go back in the evening, and bring it to your mother and brother.”
“And then, there’s school, which is more exciting than being able to eat enough.”
However, his first thought at that time was to let his son go to school. At that time, it was not like today, when slightly wealthy families are willing to send their daughters to school. At that time, they did not have the concept of letting their daughters go to school.
So when his wife proposed to send Danzhu to study, Niu Dabao was shocked for a while.
“At the time, I wondered if your auntie was wrong, but she was so serious, I thought about it, and now that I have money, it’s not impossible, so I sent your auntie to school as well.”
This gift completely changed the fate of their family.
“Your elder brother is average in reading, but your elder sister is a rare talent. The husband loves her very much and will see what she looks like. We thought at the time that your elder sister will have a way to survive in the future, even if she grows up. , it would be good to go back to primary school to be a gentleman.”
But what they never expected was that the great fortune of their family was still to come.
“Later, Xu Jiang had a new educational experiment. He said that he wanted to send everyone as talented as your sister to Kyoto. I thought at the time, this is amazing.”
Niu Dabao’s wife also said: “Yes, this is really the great creation of our family. Later, your brother was sent to Kyoto by Tang county magistrate because…because he killed someone when he was kidnapped, and gave him to Kyoto. A friend of mine teaches martial arts, so that we can have a good future.”
“Hahaha, it’s also your brother’s arrogance.” Niu Dabao hurriedly took over the chatter and said, “Your brother was favored by His Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and finally became a direct disciple of Lord Zong – ouch, this is , This is more common than your elder sister, Her Royal Highness.”
He finally came to this point, and then repeated what he had said a hundred and eighty thousand times: “It’s your father, and I also met Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. At that time, I was the representative of the people of Xujiang Iron and Steel Plant—”
Hearing this, Dan Tong didn’t want to listen anymore. Because of what happened later, she can retell it.
She said, “Father, we’re entering the city gate.”
Is this entering the city gate? Niu Dabao hurriedly lifted the curtain of the car to look outside, and said, “Your sister and brother said you were here to pick us up.”
Dan Tong and her mother also looked outside, the two older ones didn’t see it, and the younger one saw the three people standing on the left looking around.
One man and one woman are one year older, the man doesn’t know each other, and the woman doesn’t know each other, but Dan Tong can tell at a glance that her eyes are very similar to her own.
There is also a young boy, wearing a dress that looks like an official government, very good-looking, his outline is similar to his own.
That freshman should be the elder sister’s fiancé, An Xiaoge.
She started shouting, “Sister, Brother—”
Dan Zhu and Dan Qing looked over immediately and found a little girl in a carriage in the distance with her face stretched out and shouting at them.
The three of them ran over immediately, got on the carriage, and shouted in unison.
An Xiao shyly called uncle and aunt.
Niu Dabao sighed, “Good boy, you have come to pick me up after hard work.”
An Xiao didn’t have a hard time on the road, so he picked up the person and went to the alley where he and Dan Zhu lived.
Niu Dabao and his wife were unwilling to live with their daughter.
“Didn’t I ask you to buy me a house? Why don’t you just live there. I know your house is very small. I’m not used to staying with your mother.”
Dan Zhu: “…”
An Xiao: “…”
That’s right, when Mo Qi first opened up wasteland in the capital, Dan Zhu and An Xiao, relying on their relationship, asked Mo Qi to keep two houses for their parents.
This house was bought by the real parents. It is very spacious and the small yard with two entrances is much better than the small house they live in.
Niu Dabao discussed with his wife on the way that it is better to live in a big house than living in Yong’an Alley with a strong academic atmosphere.
First, it is wide, so they can still grow things, and secondly, the big house is so big that Dan Zhu and Dan Qing can go back to live. Otherwise, they reluctantly live in Yong’an Alley, what if Dan Qing goes?
Anyway, I have a house, I haven’t rented it for years, and I can’t live there, so when are you going to live?
So he said: “Let’s go and pack up first, and when we pack up, everyone will come to eat.”
An Xiao nodded, and then, today, he did not get the retention of his future father-in-law and mother-in-law. After sending the person to the house, he went back first.
The house has been cleaned a long time ago, Danqing is very strong, and did not ask anyone to carry the box, he resisted going out and entering by himself.
His aunt was distressed, “We originally wanted to call a moving shop, but we didn’t have much money.”
If you have rented a house, you will move. In the past, you may have carried a package and left. If there are few things, they are soft and soft. Other things will not be bought or taken away.
But that’s not the case anymore, even the poorest people can afford cloth because it’s cheap. You can also buy one or two stewing pots with different functions because the iron pot is cheap.
When there are too many small things, it is difficult to carry them, and it is not a small burden that can be carried away.
So moving shops came into being.
Dan Zhu said: “Auntie, the moving shop is from the beginning to the end. There is a carriage and someone helps to move it. Now that we are all at the door, what kind of moving shop do you need? Don’t worry, this little thing, my brother is completely fine.”
On the other hand, Niu Dabao slapped his mouth while helping with the move, “If I knew earlier, I wouldn’t have asked An Xiao to leave so early.”
Dan Zhu: “…”
She went to help pack up the visit and salute, smiling while putting away, “Auntie, why do you still keep these little clothes.”
This is still her childhood clothes.
Dan Tong also did things together, and said to Dan Zhu, “Sister, you and brother come back to live, I want to be with you.”
They had only written letters before.
Dan Zhu said: “I’m back, I’ll bring things back tomorrow, but Danqing can’t do it, he has to live in Ping’an Alley, this can’t be changed.”
Dan Qing nodded, “I took three days off, and after three days, I will go back to the palace to be on duty.”
Dan Tong’s eyes lit up: “Brother, do you often see Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess?”
Dan Qing head.
Dan Tong dragged Dan Qing to speak.
Seeing that the person was gone, Niu Dabao’s wife hurriedly asked Dan Zhu, “Your brother… is he still doing that thing now?”
Dan Zhu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Auntie, what’s the matter, it’s a serious matter, but… it may need to see blood, so it’s special, you think it’s a secret yamen, the people in the yamen meet criminals, no Do you want to kill him too? Dan Qing is only responsible to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess.”
Niu Dabao’s wife sighed, “I’m just worried.”
But her son was willing, and she couldn’t let him not do it, so she asked the Zhu family again.
“This wish girl, with our family Danqing… Is it a deal?”
Dan Zhu turned his head, “Although the two children didn’t say it clearly, you can see that Dan Qing went to Zhu’s house to help from time to time, I guess it was a play.”
She said, “Dan Qing doesn’t seem to understand, but that little girl A Li is a sensible person. Don’t worry, your son can’t escape the palms of other girls.”
It’s just that she was a little worried.
“Dan Qing belongs to the hidden guard…”
I heard that the people in the Hidden Guard have been conveyed the idea of not being a family since they were young, and I don’t know if Dan Qing has such a meaning.
……should not? This kid also knows how to go to the future Yue family to be courteous. On weekdays, the benefits that the palace sends to Ping’an Alley are either sent to her or to the Zhu family.
She simply changed the subject and stopped talking to her mother, saying, “When the time comes, I will sign up a local tour group for you in Kyoto, and you will go to Kyoto to go around.”
Today, there are many places to play in Kyoto.
There are artificially made-the Window of the Kingdom of Yu, which is made of the scenery and folk customs of the forty-four states of the Kingdom of Yu, as well as amusement parks that children and adults like to go to, and even a glass pavilion, which is full of Made of glass, one of them is the underwater glass paradise, where you can go to see fish, which is a must-see for almost everyone who comes to Kyoto.
And natural.
When the royal family of Chu State was in Kyoto, they could circle a lot of mountains as royal gardens, with palaces and everything in them.
Later, neither His Majesty nor His Highness the Crown Princess liked to go, so Lord Sun Xiang came out and planned the scenic spots for people to watch.
The kind that takes cash.
Anyway, three days are enough to play. Danqing and she have taken three days off, so they can take their parents to play.
Niu Dabao and his wife were very happy, “Okay, we are going there too.”
…
Children are different from children. There are daughters like Dan Zhu who want to accompany their parents to play, and there are also unfilial daughters like Her Royal Highness who force the old father to work overtime with him.
His Majesty Emperor Yu angrily accused his daughter, “Aren’t these books all yours? Why do you want me to read them!”
Zhe Qing didn’t lift his head, “Father, don’t be rude, that’s your Zhezi.”
Emperor Yu: “It’s already night, I’m going to bed.”
Zhe Qing: “Then you should also read the book before going to bed, otherwise it will pile up tomorrow, and I will read it again.”
After she finished speaking, she read the list she had written, and did not give His Majesty Emperor Yu a chance to speak, saying: “The Shen family in Yunzhou, the Yue family in Qingzhou, the Sheng family in Lingzhou, the Qin family in Muzhou, the shepherd’s family in Xuzhou, and the Yuzhou family. Su family.”
These families are all veterans. Since the establishment of the Yu Kingdom, they have been diligent and diligent. In this vassal meeting, they are the most important group of people besides Ping’an Lane.
Without their help in guarding, asking for food for food, asking for money for money, and obediently following in the footsteps of the court, she could not have ended this unification war so quickly.
Seeing that she was talking about business, Emperor Yu sat down aggrievedly and nodded, “Yes, except for the Qin family, all these families are fine.”
Zhe Qing laughed, “The head of the Qin family will be Qin Kuan in the future, aren’t you satisfied with him?”
Emperor Yu: “Isn’t that thinking that he will be part of our family in the future, but now he is no longer. What do I still like him for?”
Zhe Qing: “…”
Co-authoring You like others, have you been expecting them to become little white faces?
She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and said, “Father, the shepherd’s family, I haven’t seen my daughter yet, have you seen them scold?”
Emperor Yu shook his head, “No. In the past few years, the Mu family has not been to the capital at the right time.”
He seemed to have thought of something long ago, and laughed, “This shepherd…”
He wanted to say something, but felt he didn’t need to say anything, so he changed the subject with a sigh, “Have you made your list?”
Zhe Qingtou, “In June, let the Ministry of Personnel sort out the orders of the officials over the years. As long as they have made achievements, they will come.”
It’s a grand event.
It is also a grand event about the officials of the former Yu Kingdom.
As a result, the former General Yan Guo, who received the will of His Royal Highness the Crown Princess, felt uneasy in his heart.
He asked Shen Liu, “Why can I go?”
Shen Liu said: “Actually, your gong is quite large.”
Yuzhuer: “You surrendered.”
General Yan, whose surname is Jiang Mingdeng, has now surrendered to Shen Liu’s command.
But most likely it was for him.
Shen Liu said: “The court has a very complete personnel file—what is a personnel file—”
Jiang Deng said immediately: “I understand, I understand.”
Having been with Shen Liu for so long, he naturally knows what a personnel file is.
Shen Liu continued with satisfaction: “Of course you have your personnel files, so, you have been investigated clearly, and how many people survived your surrender this time, naturally you are the leader of a state. .”
At that time, it was not easy to think clearly and make the decision to go back to the Emperor Chu in such a short period of time.
If Jiang Deng is greedy for life and fear of death, it is another matter, but Jiang Deng is not.
He is not, on the contrary, he is a general with big ambitions.
It is not a coward to be able to achieve the position of the main general in the hands of Emperor Yan. But he chose to go back to report, he chose to persuade Emperor Yan.
He is a key figure in this peaceful battle.
Shen Liu rode on the horse and said, “You don’t know, if you don’t agree… We may really open fire. When that happens, it won’t be as simple as killing tens of thousands of people.”
Jiang Deng was silent, and finally sighed, “Thank you.”
This kind of relief, it made his heart dissipate a lot.
Then he looked at Gu Xiqiao and said, “Why…why doesn’t he seem to be very happy along the way?”
Shen Liu was very satisfied with Jiang Deng, so he was willing to share some little secrets with him.
“You said Xiaoqiao, he is different from us. We went back to seal the hero, but he is not. He went back to choose a concubine.”
Jiang Deng immediately remembered the rumors in the army.
Rumor has it that this General Gu Xiqiao has some relationship with Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess.
He was immediately alert, “It’s been too long since I’ve been away, I miss it.”
Shen Liu immediately shook his head, “That’s not true, he meant it, but Her Majesty the Crown Princess didn’t, but His Majesty meant it… um… do you understand?”
Jiang Deng nodded and concluded, “General Gu likes it, His Majesty likes it, but Her Royal Highness does not like it.”
Yu Zhu’er clicked her tongue and walked away silently.
Sure enough, not far away, Shen Liu and Gu Xiqiao were seen scuffled together.
Yu Zhu’er remembered A-Niang’s letter and asked if she and Shen Liu were in love with each other. Thinking of this sentence, she shuddered.
Marrying Shen Liu? Forget it.
After walking for a few days, we were about to reach Kyoto.
Yu Zhu’er felt that she was a little timid in the nostalgia.
“I haven’t been back in years.”
Shen Liu: “…”
One is not going back to Qingzhou, and the other is not going back to the previous Kyoto, coming to a new capital, what kind of timidity is close to the nostalgia?
He said happily: “I’m in Kyoto this time, but I have to rest enough.”
It is now the end of October, and there are still several months until March next year.
“We went out to fight… for how many years.”
He was also a little emotional.
Almost nine years?
Since the year he arrived in Yuzhou, he has been on the way to fight since being stamped as a war genius by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess.
“Yeah, we’ve been out for nine years.”
It’s been nine years.
Yu Zhu’er couldn’t remember what it was like when she first came to the old capital of Yuzhou.
She only remembered that at that time, her father told her that the capital was going to change.
“Three princes passed away, and there is no prince in the royal family. I thought it was a hopeless situation, but it was a life.”
At that time, it had only been half a year since the princess appeared in front of people, but there was no way for people to ignore what Her Royal Highness made.
Iron and Steel Factory, Yu Knife, Yugu Meal, and all kinds of new materials, instant noodles, dried pork, and so on.
At that time, my father was greedy for these good things for a long time.
So the imperial court ordered to go to Beijing, and he couldn’t wait to pack up.
“Fortunately, I followed into the capital at that time, otherwise, I can’t say that I am today, it is not me.”
At that time, she told Her Royal Highness that she wanted to go to war.
In fact, when she said it, she herself didn’t know what the future would hold, whether she would be able to fight or not.
After hearing her words, Her Royal Highness encouraged her: “Why not? If you like it, do it.”
She was very excited when she remembered this.
Then, she tightened the reins and shouted, “His Royal Highness!”
Not far away, Zhe Qing, dressed in a red riding and shooting outfit, rode on a horse, Zong Tong followed behind with an umbrella on his back, looked at the army that was getting closer and said, “His Royal Highness, they are here.”
Zhe Qing rode his horse over, hurriedly restrained the horse, and said with a smile to the three who came over, “I’ll take you home.”
