Chapter 290

Children grow fast, one day at a time.

When Yuxi saw pingge'er in Changle courtyard, he pinched pingge'er's white face with a smile and said, "Niang, pingge'er looks bigger than a few days ago." Pingge'er is Lu Xiusheng's second son. He hopes that Han Jianye can come back safely.

Qiu Shi said with a smile: "children are like this. If you haven't seen her for ten days and a half months, you probably won't recognize her. "

Yuxi laughed for a while, and then said: "mother, yesterday I went to see my grandmother. She was in a better spirit."

Because of the divorce, the old lady was infuriated by Qiu Shi and was ill for a long time. But it's a good foundation. Now it's good. However, my illness is better, but my temper is more and more big. Every time I see Qiu Shi, I don't have a good face. I'm even more indifferent to Yuxi. However, Wen and Yu Rong, who had been waiting in front of the bed for several months, were much more kind.

Qiu Shi used to serve with all his heart, but he didn't get a few words. Now he put down his mind completely. The old lady hates it. Anyway, her son is the head of the family. No one can shake her position. So, in addition to Gu quangshang's love, she doesn't go to the room to visit occasionally, so she doesn't have to be tired of seeing each other. She has served me for most of her life. When the old lady loses her face for the Wen family, who has just entered the door, her feelings for the old lady are gone. Today's Qiu family has handed over all the affairs in the mansion to Ye family. They spend half of their time chanting sutras and half of their time teasing their grandchildren. They don't know how comfortable life is.

Qiu nodded with a smile and said, "yes! The doctor said that the old lady's illness has been cured, but she is too old to be angry any more and has to rest. " The old lady can't die now. If the old lady dies, her two sons will be worried. The eldest son managed to find out the shortage of the Minister of the Ministry of war. He can't be dragged down by this.

Thinking of this, Qiushi thinks of Han Jianye who will eat sand in the Northwest: "I don't know how your second brother is in the northwest? There's no one around to take care of me, and the environment there is bad. I'm very worried when I think about it. " That day, he knew that Han Jianye was going to the northwest, but Qiu didn't say he would not go. Because she knew that her son's Kung Fu learning for so many years was not just for staying in the capital, so she could not bear to stop her son from planning his future, and finally sent him away with tears in his eyes.

Yuxi said with a smile: "Niang, don't worry about the second brother. The second brother has been sent to the mountain to practice martial arts since he was eight years old, and he has learned to cook in the mountain. So you don't have to worry. Second brother is in the northwest. He will take good care of himself. What's more, the second brother worships his grandfather most. He hopes to be like his grandfather in the future. " Qiu's father is the chief soldier of Southern Fujian. He has been stationed there for more than ten years. He can be said to be the local emperor in that area.

Qiu was a little melancholy and said, "your grandfather? I haven't seen him in more than ten years. " It was 16 years ago that her father went back to Beijing last time. It's 16 years since I saw anyone. I don't know what his father is like now? She almost has white hair, and her father must be even older. Thinking of this, Qiu's tears came.

Now Qiushi is eating fast and praying to Buddha. He doesn't want Buddha to protect his father and his youngest son: "I just hope your grandfather is healthy and your second brother is safe." Her father has been in business in Southern Fujian for nearly 20 years, but he doesn't have to worry about his health. The youngest son went to the northwest, but he was not familiar with the land, so he had to start from the beginning.

Yuxi said with a smile: "mother, my grandfather will surely live a long life, and my second brother will come back safely."

Their conversation ended in Ping Ge'er's cry.

In the evening, Yuxi is called to the study by Han Jianming. Yuxi received a letter from Han Jianming. When he opened it, he suddenly showed a smile: "it's the letter from the second brother." Han Jianye's character is too personal. You can see it at a glance.

Han Jianming and other Yuxi said after reading the letter: "Yunqing is powerful. Your second brother has not been to the Northwest for long, and he has captured him." In the letter, Han Jianye's mouthful of brother Yunqing is enough to explain everything.

With that, Han Jianming takes a special look at Yuxi. He wondered why Yuxi had so much confidence in Yunqing. Where does this confidence come from?

Yuxi didn't tell Han Jianye to make friends with Yunqing before Han Jianye went to the northwest. She can tell Han Jianming about some things, but not Han Jianye. Because with Han Jianye's temperament, if he is allowed to make friends with Yunqing for the sake of interests, he certainly disdains it. Yuxi said: "this is also the ability of cloud engine." If you don't have the ability, how can you become the commander in chief of the northwest in the end.

Han Jianming looked at Yuxi and said, "Yunqing didn't come to the capital because of the recurrence of the old injury." The courage is very good, unexpectedly will take the old wound recurrence as the reason not to come to the capital. Although this reason is high sounding, Han Jianming still does not say a word. His courage is commendable.

Yuxi said with a smile: "brother, isn't that what you have guessed for a long time? But isn't the emperor angry? "

Han Jianming said with a rare smile: "the ninth prince said two good words for Yunqing in front of the emperor. He said that if Yunqing was forced to return to Beijing, it would make the soldiers in the border city feel cold." What the ninth prince said is very right, but the problem is that other people don't say it except the ninth prince.

Yuxi was very surprised: "Ninth prince? The ninth prince can't be unaware of the hatred between the cloud family and the Song family. How can he help Yunqing say good things? "

Han Jianming said: "he is not saying good things for Yunqing, but the Song family has already contacted Qin Zhao privately. General Tong is song Huaijin's eldest brother-in-law. If the Song family controls the northwest again, will the name of the world be song or Zhou? "

Yuxi understood: "the ninth Prince is guarding against the Song family?" Now the ninth Prince is not the crown prince to guard against the Song family, and the Song family is not a fool. Now when the ninth Prince becomes the emperor, they can still have their happy life.

Han Jianming shook his head and said, "I can't say that. The ninth Prince is looking at the overall situation. Yunqing is really a fighter. After staying, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. " The ninth Prince is the prince, and he is likely to become the prince of Dabao. Naturally, he hopes to leave more useful talents.

Yuxi laughed: "the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?" For the ninth prince, Yunqing is a talent, but for the Song family, Yunqing is an enemy who hates them.

Yuxi murmured in his heart that the ninth prince would have an accident in his last life, and he didn't know whether the Song family was behind the scenes. For the Song family, the ninth Prince is the same as the tenth prince. They are nephews. If the nine princes are not obedient, the ten princes who are obedient will be the same. However, these are her guesses, and no one knows the truth.

Compared with the northwest, the situation in Liaodong is much better. After all, general Tong is song Huaijin's eldest brother-in-law. No matter how much the army pay, the Department of grain and grass is also the first to worry about them. The Tong general is not a straw bag either. He has to win and lose in war, but he is not as powerful as marshal Yan.

Having said all these things, Yuxi talked about the capital: "there are a lot of refugees outside the capital. It's November, and it's getting cold. Brother, do you think we can send some rice and quilts to let them through the winter Refugees are not allowed to enter Beijing. They are afraid of disturbing the public security of the capital. The most important thing is that they will riot. However, this time, the refugees gathered outside the capital were ignored by the imperial court, but some officials and rich families in the capital privately sent some rice and cotton quilts. Although there are many vicious people, there are still many kind-hearted people.

Han Jianming shook his head and said, "don't send any more for the time being. This kind of thing can't be done by private donations alone. The imperial court has to come forward to settle it. "

Yuxi looked up at Han Jianming and asked, "will the imperial court come forward to make arrangements? Is the court rich? " It is said that there are mice in the Treasury.

Han Jianming laughed and said, "you don't have to worry about this. Even if you don't have money, you have to squeeze it out." Seeing Yuxi's puzzled appearance, Han Jianming said: "there are many corrupt officials in the court, and it's false to fight for power and profit, but there are also officials with conscience." The refugees outside the city can't really let them freeze to death and starve outside. What's more, if there's no food, no drink, no way to live for these people, once there's a riot, it's a big deal.

Yuxi said, "hope!"

Han Jianming said with a smile: "however, someone should come forward to raise money at that time. If you have the heart, you can donate more at that time."

Yu Xi frowned and said, "it's OK to donate more. I'm worried that I'll be embezzled by some people." At that time, they use the money to do good deeds to feed the moths. It's not comfortable to think about it!

Han Jianming shook his head helplessly and said, "even if you are greedy, it won't be too much." There are good officials, but too few, and too many moths. At that time, we can only hope that a clean official will be sent to deal with this matter.

Yuxi was not at ease and said, "it's better for us to buy more rice and cotton quilts." To do good deeds is to make those refugees suffer less, but they are not comfortable with being exploited.

Han Jianming shook his head and said, "No. It used to be OK to send something, but not too much. " He doesn't want to be set up as a benchmark. Moreover, no amount of private gifts can solve the fundamental problem. Only the imperial court can solve the problem.

Yuxi knew that this was the reason, but he felt uncomfortable. Back to Taoran, Yuxi sat on the chair thinking. The world is hard, and the people at the bottom are the hardest.

Mother Quan looked at Yuxi's face and asked, "what's the matter, girl? What did the Duke say to the girl? His face is dignified. "

Yuxi came back and said, "talk about the refugees. By the way, mother Quan, your nephew's family is still in hongzaozhuang. Why don't you take them to the capital? " Since Yuxi accepted it, the tenants in hongzaozhuang have been living more and more smoothly. Without him, the Chen Steward will accept all the things we plant, such as peanuts and beans. I don't worry about sales, so every piece of land around hongzaozhuang is used, and I have two spare money on hand. When money is loose, people will try their best to keep more food in hand. There is an old saying that you don't panic when you have grain in your hand. Therefore, every household of jujube makers has saved a lot of grain.

Mother Quan said with a smile, "I let them go to Beijing when I knew there were refugees. But they didn't want to. They also said that there were more than 100 families in hongzaozhuang, and there were two or three hundred strong men. There are so many people here. These refugees dare not go to Chuang Tzu to do evil. "

Once people are hungry, not to mention eating bark and grass roots, they dare to eat. Once the red jujube village is watched by these people, I'm afraid that something big will happen. Yuxi said: "this matter has to let people remind Chen Guanshi, let him guard Zhuangzi well." There are many things worth helping among the refugees, but we should also be on guard against some malicious ones.

Mother Quan nodded and said, "I have this worry, too. I'm afraid that Chuang Tzu's mess will lead to accidents. If manager Chen can come forward and organize everyone, I won't worry about it. "
