Zhuang Xiaoyu broke a willow branch and played with it in his hand, and asked, "Why is there no dragon boat race this year?"
The wet nurse shook her head: "I don't know either."
The two farmers who were walking in front turned their heads, looked at Zhuang Xiaoyu, and said with a smile: "Miss is well-clothed and well-fed, and she is locked up in the boudoir all day, so I don't know why there is no dragon boat race this year?"
The nurse was a little angry: "Why are you talking, Miss Shengui is not in the courtyard of Shengui, so it's impossible to run around all day?"
The farmer smiled, but he was not angry: "Only Miss Shengui doesn't know the sufferings of the people, and doesn't know whether the lives of our common people are suffering, so she asks such a question."
The nurse heard that the man was not being sarcastic, and frowned: "What does this have to do with whether people's lives are suffering or not?"
The three farmers chirped and began to explain: "This year, there have been a few heavy rains that are rare in our Moon City in a hundred years. Fortunately, the dams have been built well. Otherwise, we don't know how many people drowned in those heavy rains." .”
"That's right, there's a lot of rain, and more water pours into the moat. Look for yourself, it's already autumn, and the water level in the moat is still so high. How dangerous is it for dragon boat racing? , and during that period of time, it was also a few days of pouring rain, and it was too late to hide, who would have the heart to hold this thing?"
"In the past, I don't know how many people would have died. That is, this year, there was so much water, the mountain collapsed, and there were several mudslides, but not many people died..."
"The deputy priest is really nice. I don't know when I can become the real high priest."
"The new priest can only take office after the previous high priest passes away, and I don't know when the previous high priest will return to the West..."
"That's right, it would have been nice if the previous high priest had passed away earlier, and the acting priest would be able to take the position of high priest justifiably..."
"If there were no substitute priests, our people would still be governed by the high priest. Maybe we would have died several times already..."
…
Seeing these people talking and laughing happily, the wet nurse wanted to tell them to shut up, but she didn't dare to curse rashly.
Zhuang Xiaoyu stood in the same place like a log, listening to these people unscrupulously looking forward to his father's passing away in front of him, he had mixed feelings in his heart, and he couldn't tell what it was like...
She stopped and stayed away from those people, quietly looking at the rolling moat with dull and empty eyes.
She even thought that if she was one of those suffering people and a relative of those who died at the hands of her father and brother, the hatred in her heart must be even greater than these people.
It was like Yu Sui being insulted, she asked Wen Zhu to cut the man a thousand times, then pulled out the bone and threw it out to feed the dogs.
Compared with these common people, her methods are more vicious than those victims, but those victims are powerless to take revenge, but she can get what they want.
The nurse cautiously persuaded: "Miss, don't be as knowledgeable as these people, let alone listen to what they say. When the high priest was in good health, it was these people who sincerely knelt down in front of the high priest and prayed for blessings... ...."
Ten years in Hedong, ten years in Hexi, Feng Shui turns, and the cycle of cause and effect is endless.
It's not that Zhuang Xiaoyu doesn't understand these truths, it's just that she has a different standpoint. She is the only precious daughter of the high priest, the daughter whom the high priest loved a lot since childhood, and a person with vested interests.
Can't pick up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl and scold your mother, to be a human being, you still have to have a little conscience, father and brother are sorry to the world, but they have never let her down...
