Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11263

After dinner, Luo Fengtang and Da'an went to Da'an's study alone and talked behind closed doors.

Xiaohua took the three children back to the house, washed their feet and prepared to put them to sleep.

Yang Huazhong sat in the main room smoking alone. Although everyone at the dinner table had advised them not to worry and not to think too much, as parents, how could they not worry?

  It is sung in operas: Serving the king is like serving a tiger!

The mind of a king is the most difficult to fathom. Who knows when he will find a reason to punish someone if he gets unhappy?

  In this world, from the heavens and the earth to humans and animals, in the final analysis, which one does not belong to the emperor?

Relax?

I can’t relax at all, alas!

Yang Ruoqing knew that no matter how much she said to her father, it would be of no use. Language was the most pale thing in this world.

Once the results come out in a couple of days, this worry will naturally disappear.

So, Yang Ruoqing chose to go to the kitchen in the backyard to help Sun clean up the dishes.

What Sun was muttering about was also about this matter. Yang Ruoqing did not interrupt and let Sun talk to himself. Talking to oneself can sometimes be a way to release emotions.

At night, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang returned home. The two children had been taken back to their own rooms by Rong Gu and the others to sleep.

Although the children slept with Yang Ruoqing most of the time, they had their own rooms ready, so in similar situations, the two children would sleep in their own rooms.

Rong Gu came over to help Yang Ruoqing wash her feet, but Yang Ruoqing sent her away.

"No need to wait on me, just put the hot water bottle there and go to bed early."

"Yes."

"Who will be accompanying the two brothers Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan tonight?"

“It’s peony.”

"Okay, go and take a rest!"

Yang Ruoqing adjusted the hot water and went to call Luo Fengtang to come and take a bath.

Luo Fengtang was writing furiously at his desk. He was writing a letter and asking Da'an to take it to Changhuai Prefecture and give it to the official in charge of the military department in Changhuai Prefecture.

That gentleman once knew Yu Weimo together with Luo Fengtang, and they had gone through hardships together in the southern military camp.

Luo Fengtang wrote a letter and asked Da'an to take it to an old friend, hoping that the old friend could help take care of his brother-in-law in Changhuai Prefecture.

"Qing'er, you wash first, I'll come after I finish writing."

"I'm not in a hurry. I'll pack some things first, and we'll soak our feet together later."

What Yang Ruoqing packed were two old ginsengs.

Both ginsengs are a hundred years old and are placed in a box. Both ginsengs have red silk threads tied around them. This is the saying in this area.

It is said that the ginseng, which is hundreds of years old, has absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon and gradually developed spirituality.

Some can even change shape. Some mountain people will see children wearing red bellybands running in the wild at night. It is very likely that they are ginseng babies.

So in order to prevent these ginsengs from running away, professional ginseng pickers usually tie them up with red silk threads.

The two boxes of ginseng in Yang Ruoqing's hand were purchased at a high price from the mountain dwellers in the deep mountains of Mianniu Mountain. This kind of Qi-replenishing and Qi-strengthening herb is usually not used easily and is reserved for prolonging life.

At this moment, Yang Ruoqing took it out and gave it to Luo Fengtang, asking him to give it to Da'an on the way to the county town tomorrow morning.

This time I went to Changhuai Prefecture to receive an imperial edict, and brought two boxes of my most valuable ginseng with me to help various parties with their needs, so that they can be put to good use.

Although Da'an himself had been in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years, it was a low-income government office. Apart from the income from the few shops that Yang Ruoqing gave to Da'an to maintain the stable expenses of his family in the capital, he probably couldn't save much money. He certainly couldn't give any gifts that would impress the officials of Changhuai Prefecture or the people in the capital who specially delivered the imperial edict.

At this time, Yang Ruoqing, the sister who supports her brother, comes online again.

Fortunately, my brother-in-law is open-minded and supports my sister's behavior. Fortunately, my sister's family is rich and wealthy.

Yang Ruoqing admitted that she was a brother-supporting woman.

But she didn't just help her younger brothers mindlessly. She helped them mainly because they had a good relationship with her.

Moreover, the younger brothers were not the kind of people who would do nothing but live off the family wealth. One of them was a scholar, and the other a warrior. Both of them were very ambitious, open-minded and upright. That was why Yang Ruoqing, their elder sister, spared no effort to help them.

In another sense, Yang Ruoqing helped her two younger brothers, especially Da'an, for her own selfish reasons.

Daan is the top scholar in the imperial examination and he is the incarnation of Wenquxing.

Da'an is very talented, but he has never been given an important position in these years. Now he has been working in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years, a low-paying job. He has seen all kinds of people and things, and he must have gained more insights and experiences through silent observation.

Da'an is not very old either, four years younger than Yang Ruoqing. He is twenty-eight this year and will be twenty-nine soon.

A man is established at the age of 30. Whether in terms of knowledge, knowledge, experience, energy, physical strength and so on, Yang Ruoqing feels that Da'an has reached a golden age to be sent out as an official.

The elder sister used money to pave the way for her younger brother's official career, and the brother-in-law also protected his younger brother-in-law. When Da'an is tempered in the officialdom in the future, it will invisibly consolidate the family foundation and will be able to give back to the Luo family's descendants in the future.

"Tomorrow you will send Da'an to the county town and hand him over to the guards he brought back, and then you will return, right?"

When the two of them put their feet in the hot water to soak their feet in the mugwort water, Yang Ruoqing asked softly.

Luo Fengtang nodded, "Yes, I will send him to the county town and then return. When we reach Qing'an County, I will let Xiao'an bring people with me to continue to protect Da'an's safety!"

Yang Ruoqing thought about it and felt that this arrangement was reasonable.

"I think my parents will suffer from insomnia these two days. They can't eat or sleep well." Yang Ruoqing talked to Luo Fengtang about the current conditions of Yang Huazhong and Sun, and smiled bitterly. "I don't have any powerful words to comfort them. I can only wait for good news."

Luo Fengtang gently rubbed Yang Ruoqing's feet with his big feet in the basin, and said in a gentle voice: "No need to say anything more, it will be fine in two days. Besides, don't worry yourself, I have a feeling that it is definitely good news, not what my father-in-law and mother-in-law are worried about!"

Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded, "I think so too. If nothing else, it's just for you and Chen'er and his son. Da Qi can't live without you."

Not to mention the future, just in the past ten years, whether in the north, south, west, or east of the sea, the unrest has never stopped.

As for war, how can I put it? From the perspective of the common people and the emperor, they definitely hope that the war will end completely, the country will be peaceful and the people will live and work in peace.

The amount of money that the national treasury spends on military pay every year can be cut by more than half, right?

However, from the perspective of a general leading the troops, he must win the battle and drive out the enemy, but he cannot drive them out too thoroughly!

The reasons behind this are very difficult to explain, and even some people who stand on the moral high ground will condemn it.
