Chapter 6212 Another Thing
Yang Ruoqing nodded lightly, "For my children, I originally thought that as long as they are safe and healthy, living a life without worries about food and clothing, it's okay to be like ordinary people. It’s not good.”
“However, when I later found out that my child was so outstanding, and he had so many ideas of his own, I changed my mind and didn’t want to restrict them because of my personal opinions.”
“Some things I think are good, but they are not necessarily suitable for children. What the children think is best is what they think is best. After all, their life journey is so long, they have to walk on their own, don’t you think so?”
Ms. Sun sighed lightly, but still nodded.
"Qing'er, your words really spoke to my heart. At first, your father and I felt the same way about Da'an and Xiao'an. We were very entangled for a while... In the end, we let Da'an take the path of studying. I walked further and further to the capital. "
"Many people in the village said that I was stupid. Even your father scolded your father. They said, "If you don't educate your children, they will." I will stay with you to farm and provide for you until the end of your life. How wonderful would it be for your family to live happily?” Here we are, the surroundings are deserted..."
Talking about the doubts she had received in the past, Mrs. Sun just shook her head and chuckled, but there was no trace of regret in her eyes.
"Your father and I have no regrets. Even if we are scolded as stupid, we are still happy. Deserted is deserted. Do you see how good Da'an is now? The couple and their son have established themselves in the capital, and they are in the Hanlin Academy. I work here and meet the emperor more times than your father and I meet the county magistrate. How wonderful..."
Yang Ruoqing stepped forward and gently hugged Sun's shoulders.
"Mom, you and my dad are great parents. It is precisely because of your open-minded parents that our three siblings are living a good life today."
"You and my father are not alone. Duo'er and I are with you. Xiao An also comes back to visit you often. Dad Although An is far away in the capital, his heart is firmly with us."
"Yes, yes, every time Da An writes home, he always asks about my and your father's health. He has us in his heart."
Ms. Sun also nodded repeatedly. She has no doubt about her son's filial piety.
Because the mountains are high and the rivers are long, many times I miss them for a long time, and I inevitably like to think wildly, fearing that they will not be able to eat well or sleep well outside.
"By the way, Qing'er, did Xiao An say when he would be home? Your fifth uncle came back a few days ago and said that Xiao An didn't give him the right words." Sun asked again.
In the past, during New Year holidays or if something happened at home, the uncle and nephew would basically go back together. Even if one of them couldn't go at the same time due to something delayed, the other person who came back early would always take him. Send a verbal message to your family so that they don’t have to worry about it.
But this time, Xiao An didn't give Yang Huazhou a single accurate word, and he even had to question whether he would come back.
"According to usual habits, Xiao An should come back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Plus, it's my grandma's 70th birthday, so he has no reason not to come back."
Yang Ruoqing and Sun analyzed it seriously.
"The Mid-Autumn Festival will not be until four or five days. Don't rush, there is still time. If you don't come back in the end, it must be because the Ministry of War has something to do and you can't leave. Let's be more casual."
Sun After hearing this, he could only nod his head, "If you really answer If you don’t come, ask your father and your fifth uncle to go to Qing’an County to see Xiao An after the Mid-Autumn Festival to see how he is doing. I made a few sets of autumn clothes for him and brought them to him.”
Yang Ruoqing nodded happily, but thought of another thing.
Xiao An's life and death brother He Qingsong died, and it happened to coincide with the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Reunion Festival. The parents of the He family must be suffering. Xiao An is a person who values affection and justice. Could it be that he went to the He family to visit the He family's parents and therefore delayed his return?
I accompanied Sun to clean up the warehouse for a while, and listened to her talking to me about the layout and arrangements for the birthday banquet in a few days.
Just listening to this makes people yearn for it. There are a lot of delicious food and it is so lively... Compared with the He family, there are really several happy families and some sad ones. Ah, if Xiao An went over to spend the holidays with the He family's parents, it would be appropriate.
The topic somehow turned to Mrs. Sun.
Ms. Sun sighed: "Hey, it's a pity that your grandma is not blessed enough to live such a long life..."
The smile on Yang Ruoqing's face also dimmed. Not only was it the He family, but she herself also had relatives she was mourning in her heart.
The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows. This is a difficult thing in ancient times!
......
Donglin County, an inconspicuous small county east of Qing'an County, is far smaller than Wanghai County and Huguang County in terms of population and size.
Famous celebrities in Wanghai County, the Protector General and Zhongyonghou, the Number One Scholar, Tanhua Lang, and the youngest scholar in Daqi, Luo Xingchen... these are all the signatures of Wanghai County, because there are these celebrities and capable people Together, the entire Wanghai County’s style stands out from the surrounding counties.
Huguang County is adjacent to the Eight Great Lakes and has developed waterways. The constant flow of merchant ships traveling from south to north makes Huguang County an important hub for waterways in this area. In addition, Huguang County itself has beautiful scenery. The Ziwei Cave in Ziwei Mountain is said to be where immortals made elixirs. The place of ascension.
A thousand-year-old peony blooms on the cliffs of Yinping Mountain. Every year around the time of Grain Rain, literati from near and far come to admire it.
It is said that this thousand-year-old peony has experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, absorbing the essence of the world, the sun and the moon, and has long been spiritual. It once transformed into a graceful woman in white, fluttering butterflies by the mountain stream, and is full of splendor...
< br>There is nothing unique about Donglin County The conditions are favorable, and there are not many celebrities and capable people. In addition, the geographical location is relatively remote. Among the counties under the jurisdiction of Qing'an County, it is the county seat that slings the dragon's tail. It is said that the county magistrate of Donglin County went to Qing'an County to meet the county magistrate. , the seats are far behind other county magistrates, and have a marginalized existence.
Donglin County has also given up on itself, so this area is extremely backward. The more backward it is, the more information is blocked and the more outdated ideas become.
The saying that poor mountains and bad waters bring out unruly people is exactly this kind of place.
There is a small village called Tianba Village at the bottom of Donglin County, a small village with a population of 20 or 30 households. There is a news that has been spreading these days.
That is Wang Moazi, the youngest son of the Li Zheng family, who is going to marry He Lian'er, the daughter of the He family
Wang Moazi, the youngest of the three sons of the Li Zheng family, stole food from the neighbor's yard when he was a child. The chicken boy was chased by the neighbor's guard dog and slipped and fell on his head. After that, his brain was not functioning properly and he did stupid things that normal people would not do.
The villagers carrying water passed by his door. He spit into their buckets and threw the poop he had finished on their roofs.
On a hot day, young girls and young wives gathered under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village to enjoy the coolness and do needlework. He ran up to the house and took off his pants with a splash, sticking out his big white buttocks and patting them loudly, making the woman They were scared to death.
In the village, they stopped little girls of seven or eight years old and dragged them behind the straw. If they held them down, they would do some ugly things to them, which frightened many children.
Many parents were angered and went to Li Zheng’s family to reason with them. Li Zheng’s name was Wang Ba, and he was the local bully of Tianba Village.
