Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Xiaohua and He Lian'er were also a little confused when looking at the young children in front of them.

However, the emotions of several children became even more agitated.

He kept clamoring to go.

He Lian'er said, "How about we go for an outing in the suburbs?"

Xiaohua was about to say yes when Niu Niu suddenly burst into tears.

"No, no, I want to go out and play, I want to see the giant monkeys..."

"Big monkey, big monkey..."

Unable to bear the noise any longer, Luo Fengtang began to put pressure on Tuantuan and Yuanyuan with his eyes.

Tuantuan and Yuanyuan quickly hid behind Yang Ruoqing.

Yang Ruoqing shook her head at Luo Fengtang, signaling him to forget it.

Luo Fengtang withdrew his gaze.

He understood what Yang Ruoqing meant. There were several other children here. When Luo Fengtang put pressure on his own child, it would inevitably scare the other little ones.

Besides, some things require deterrence and pressure, while some things are not suitable.

It is not good to use deterrence for everything. Communication is necessary.

"Forget about going for an outing. Looking at their current state, I'm afraid they will just keep making trouble even if we force them to go!" Yang Ruoqing said.

"Let's go to Yingjiang Temple. Don't change your mind. When we get to the temple, let someone stay and take them to play on the street outside. Just don't go into the temple."

"We can go in if we can. Shaoyao and Ping'an are here anyway. Lian'er, you can bring two maids and servants with you. We can go in to burn incense and climb the tower, and leave the child to them."

He Lian'er nodded happily.

Xiaohua also thinks this is good.

"Da'an has just been transferred to the post of governor of Changhuai Prefecture, and I just want to go to the temple to make a wish and draw lots for him," Xiaohua said, "Feng'er will also take the scholar examination this autumn, and I also want to do divination for him."

He Lian'er said, "Then I will also ask for a fortune."

Sun said, "I'm also asking for a fortune."

Yang Ruoqing thought about it and decided that she didn't need to ask for a fortune, but...

She slid to Luo Fengtang's side and whispered, "How about I ask for a marriage fortune for our daughter?"

Luo Fengtang nodded: "That's exactly what I meant!"

My daughter will be seventeen in March, so it's time to ask her about that.

Although... Bingbing's relationship failed, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang are currently very satisfied with Zuo Jinling. However, after all, Zuo Jinling is four years younger than Luo Baobao, and is only thirteen.

So Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing came to Yingjiang Temple. They heard that the temple was quite popular, so they wanted to ask the Bodhisattva for his opinion. They might as well just think of it as some boredom and listen to some suggestions!
……

The weather is sunny and the spring is bright.

The gate of the He family's courtyard was wide open, and two carriages slowly drove out from inside. Luo Fengtang rode a horse, and his guards escorted on both sides of the carriages.

Luo Fengtang and his guards all wore masks on their faces.

Once this mask is put on, it not only looks majestic and cold, but also very mysterious, so that passers-by who see this team will know that they are not easy to mess with.

As the team walked out of the street, an official came from the other side and said something to Luo Fengtang's guard, who then reported to Luo Fengtang.

Luo Fengtang waved his hand, and the guard understood and rode over to explain to the official. The official took the order and left quickly.

The carriage continued to move forward. Luo Fengtang rode to the side of the carriage where Yang Ruoqing was and gently knocked on the side of the carriage.

The car curtain was opened, revealing Yang Ruoqing's smiling face.

"I'm telling some kids not to touch the big monkeys. What's going on?"

Luo Fengtang whispered a few words.

Yang Ruoqing suddenly realized and then smiled.

"We passed through Qing'an County, which made this County Magistrate Xie very nervous!"

I don't know where they got the news of their trip, but they actually sent someone to ask whether the government should send people in advance to drive away the idlers from Yingjiang Temple and close the road to make room for the Luo family's visitors?
"Tang boy, we thought the same thing. It's good that you refused." Yang Ruoqing gave Luo Fengtang a commendatory look through the car window.

When they go out, what they want is to blend into the general public atmosphere.

If everyone follows the example of the rich and powerful, they would clear out and impose martial law in an area before going out to play, under the pretext of safety.

To be honest, unless the powerful person has social phobia, or has a lot of problems of his own and is afraid that others will take this opportunity to seek revenge on him or his family, otherwise, when he goes out to play, he just wants to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city where all the people are together.

Playing alone?
What’s fun about that?
Humans are social animals. If there is martial law and the area is cleared, how can my little ones go to watch the giant macaque show?
Who is my pretty little Fuwa girl showing her beauty to? She just needs the audience to help raise the emotional value!

However, from the perspective of County Magistrate Xie, it is understandable. After all, he and his father-in-law Hu Xuesong are both extremely nervous now!
……

As for Yang Ruoqing's praise, Luo Fengtang felt so comfortable all over that his icy face softened instantly, and a little warmth appeared in his dark and deep eyes.

However, his warmth and tenderness only enveloped Yang Ruoqing behind the car window. Other women and young ladies on the roadside, even though they were attracted by his unique temperament and stopped to watch him, had admiration in their eyes.

But in Luo Fengtang's eyes, these women and young ladies were all passers-by, regardless of gender.

According to Yang Ruoqing's observation and explanation of him, those people are all NPCs in his eyes.
If this world is a large game copy, Luo Fengtang probably only regards Yang Ruoqing as a real player and only teams up with her to pass levels.

How have I, Yang Ruoqing, deserved this? I didn’t cast any curse on this man’s lover from Southeast Asia. God has bestowed wealth and honor on me and given me my own husband!
Yang Ruoqing is also vain, and her vanity is sometimes very strong. For example, at this moment, she feels a little proud.

……

Because there was no martial law, the streets were bustling with people and vehicles.

Just then, a carriage just happened to pass by Yang Ruoqing and his group's carriage.

The carriage had a word "Thanks" hung on the outside and was escorted by several servants. Inside the carriage were the county magistrate's wife, Mrs. Hu, and her two maids. In the trailer behind the carriage were the luggage of the master and servants.

This time, Xie Junhao sent her out of Qing'an County on the pretext of asking her to return to her hometown in the countryside to accompany her mother and fulfill her filial piety on his behalf.

That night, Xie Junhao also began to openly call other women to serve him. This was intentional to punish Hu, to warn Hu, and to let Hu understand Xie Junhao's dissatisfaction with Hu's crazy indulgence of her natal family.

"Ma'am, don't be sad. The master and you are deeply in love. I think they will take you back soon." The maid Xiaohong saw Mrs. Hu wiping tears along the way and felt sorry for her, so she comforted her softly.

Another maid, Xiao Lan, also said angrily: "Our Madam and the Master have been married for more than ten years and have a son and a daughter. Madam, please don't panic!"

Xiaohong and Xiaolan were both maids who had followed Mrs. Hu for several years. They were both sent by their natal family to serve Xie Junhao before he passed the imperial examination and went to take up a post somewhere.

Before Xie Junhao became rich, his mother's family had never given a single blade of grass to Hu...

So Xiaohong and Xiaolan have been with Mrs. Hu for the past few years, and have indeed done their best to help her with housework and take care of her husband and children.

However, these two maids also played an indispensable role in instigating Mrs. Hu to give back to her natal family.

After all, the purpose of the two of them being bought by Tao and given to Hu was to win over Hu. They brainwashed Hu every day, telling her the importance of her natal family, that her natal brother was a treasure, and that he was the last resort and support for all the girls who married out. If a woman didn't visit her natal family during festivals and holidays, and didn't have any contact with her natal relatives, she would have no place to seek justice when she was wronged, and would be laughed at by others...

So last night, when Xiaohong and Xiaolan saw Xie Junhao sleeping with another woman, their anger and dissatisfaction were no less than that of Mrs. Hu.

Xiaohong, who was already seventeen years old, was even a little jealous. She thought that she had wanted to test the master several times and ask if he would be his concubine. However, the master ignored her initiatives and even warned her once.

I didn't expect that the master is such a hypocrite!
"Madam, this time you go back to the countryside and serve the old lady, you should please her. The master is a filial son." Xiaohong lowered her voice and gave advice to Mrs. Hu.

However, Mrs. Hu was dizzy all the way and could not hear the advice of the two maids.

Because her mind was full of thoughts about Xie Junhao being in the study room last night and asking the servants to bring in water three times!
This matter made Hu unbelievable.

Although she and Xie Junhao were a couple who respected each other in the eyes of the servants, they were also a young couple, a poor couple, and had been together for more than ten years, and she had given birth to a son and a daughter for Xie Junhao.

Others thought they were very loving, but Mrs. Hu knew that she was just a harmonious partner to Tse Kwan-ho.

Even when he was newly married, Xie Junhao had never cried three times in one night.

Moreover, since she gave birth to her son five years ago, although he slept with her every day, most of the time she slept in the big bed with the child, and he slept on the bunk next to her because he would read until very late.

Especially after arriving in Qing'an County, in the past two years, the two of them probably had sex no more than three times, and each time it ended hastily and with little interest.

Hu went home and told her stepmother Tao about the secrets between husband and wife, hoping to learn some skills from Tao to make her husband interested in her.

It was true that Tao taught her many boudoir skills with all her heart, but Hu found that none of these worked on Xie Junhao.

Later, Mrs. Hu figured it out and felt that Xie Junhao was devoted to politics and that she, as a wife, was too superficial. With her children running around, why was she still trying to think of other things to stabilize their relationship?

There is really no need!

However, it was not until last night that she realized that her husband, who had always been calm and composed in some aspects, actually had a crazy and out-of-control side.

It's just because the objects are different...

This discovery truly hurt Mrs. Hu's heart, making her feel extremely frustrated and even having a bad premonition.

I felt that if I left, I would probably never come back, and my place would soon be replaced by another woman.

However, my husband asked me to go, and I dared not disobey him, especially since filial piety and righteousness were the most important things for me. If I dared to disobey him, he would write me a letter of divorce on the spot!
Suddenly, Xiaolan, who had lifted the car curtain to get some fresh air, cried out as if he had discovered a new world.

"Madam, look, over there, in that carriage..."

Hu raised her head in a daze and looked in the direction of the corner of the curtain that Xiao Lan had lifted.

Two carriages came over on the opposite street, and the curtain of the carriage at the back was just lifted, revealing the face of a young and beautiful woman.

The woman had a smile on her face and a look of tenderness in her eyes as she was talking to a man riding a horse outside the carriage.

"Oh, isn't that the female devil from last night?" The maid Xiaohong also came closer and muttered subconsciously when she saw this scene.

"Shut up!" Mrs. Hu suddenly turned around and scolded Xiaohong fiercely.

"That's the general's wife. If she hears you, she'll break your bones. I won't plead for you!"

Xiaohong's face turned pale and she bit her lips in fear.

After shocking Xiaohong, Hu turned around and looked outside the car again, and just in time the other party was coming towards her.

Mrs. Hu saw clearly that it was indeed the general's wife from last night.

She looked completely different today than the evil woman who cracked the whip last night.

"Could the masked man riding a big horse be the general?" Xiao Lan whispered in Hu's ear.

Mrs. Hu nodded secretly and looked at Luo Fengtang quietly. Although the mask covered the general's face, Mrs. Hu had a feeling that the general must be a rare handsome man in the world.

The general's wife sat in a carriage, and the general rode on horseback to guard beside her. From time to time, the two of them lifted the curtain and talked and laughed.

This is the true love between husband and wife, they respect each other and support each other, because they both have each other in their eyes.

Unlike herself and Xie Junhao, that kind of cold and distant politeness and respect is not love at all, it is a courtesy that is in name only.

If neither party breaks the balance, the relationship will continue.

If one side breaks the balance, then the other side will also show its true colors without mercy...

While Hu was experiencing a mixture of complex emotions such as surprise, envy, and loss, the carriages of both sides had already crossed each other.

……

"Qing'er, the street in front of Yingjiang Temple is ahead." Luo Fengtang's reminder came again from outside the car window.

Yang Ruoqing and He Lian'er looked outside from the windows on both sides of the carriage. Yang Ruoqing saw that the street she was on was almost at the end, and at the end was another horizontal street blocking the way, which extended to the left and right.

Behind the street is the vast and misty surface of the Yangtze River.

"Sister, let's get off at this intersection and walk to the temple."

"Okay, you arrange it."

Everyone got off the bus here. After getting off the bus, according to the previous assignment at home, Shaoyao, Lily of the Valley, Ping'an and Xingwang were responsible for taking Tuantuan, Yuanyuan, Niu Niu and Jun'er to play in the street in front and not enter the temple.

Yang Huazhong and Feng'er, the grandparents and grandchildren, did not want to enter the temple either, so they chose to join the team leading the little kids.

He's mother and He Lian'er accompanied Sun, Yang Ruoqing, Xiaohua, and Fuwa to play in the temple.

"Sister, isn't my brother-in-law going?" He Lian'er asked Yang Ruoqing, because she saw that Luo Fengtang had been protecting everyone all the way here, but he didn't seem to be going to the temple, and at the same time, he didn't seem to want to go to the temple street with the kids.
