lady, please calm down

Chapter 52 Is it true that it has always been like this?
At noon, Chen Chu had lunch in Ningyu Pavilion, and then went to the kitchen of Caiwei Pavilion.

I asked the chef Xu Daxiang for some cauliflower and frosting sugar, and then went to Tianshui Lane to meet Yang Zhen and others to return to the mountain.

"Brother Chu, why do you want to be a black dog all of a sudden?"

On the way, Yang Zhen couldn't help asking out his doubts.

The public uniform of Zao officials is black, and only from this title can also tell what attitude these fugitives represented by Dalang have towards the officials.

"Da Lang, do you still remember the first time we entered the county?" Chen Chu answered irrelevantly.

"Ok?"

"That day I used plastic as a water-proof windbag, and I was worried that others would rob us. You said that no one dared to touch us in Tongshan."

"Well, remember."

"Then why do you think others dare not touch us?"

"We are not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, why do they bother to provoke us?"

"Yes, we were barefoot at that time. But now, we have rented Zhuangzi, even if we rented it, we still have land. With land, we have become shoes. Put on shoes You have to adapt to the rules at the foot of the mountain.”

Yang Zhen silently digested the content of Chen Chu's words, and said after a while: "Listening to what you say, it's better to be happy on the mountain."

"We are happy for a while, but what about the future? Where will we have descendants in the future?" Chen Chu said leisurely.

Speaking of this, the two of them didn't speak again, until they reached the foot of the mountain, Yang Zhen said with some concern: "Father already knew about this, he is a bit anxious, but he regards you as his own junior in his heart, if you say anything , Brother Chu, take care of it."

"I know, don't worry Dalang."

At Xu time, the sun sets and the moon rises.

Chen Chu was sitting in the yard of his home, with a pot of soaked cauliflower cooking on the stove.

The cat was sitting on the edge of the bed, crouching in front of the oil lamp, sewing men's underwear.

A few days ago, when I was doing needlework with Aunt Yang and others, Maoer learned that men wear long gowns in summer for convenience, and the obscene pants inside are open
Thinking of the pair of obscene trousers that had been patched by his officials, Maoer hurriedly made two new ones.

However, the cicadas chirping outside made the cat restless.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the yard. Mao'er hooked his head and saw Yang Youtian and his son entering the yard through the window. Against the background of the flickering fire, Uncle Yang's expression was not very good.

The cat knew about this, and quickly put down the needle and thread in his hand, went to the door and sat on the threshold.

This position will not be too close, so as not to attract the suspicion of "men talking about things, women meddling blindly".

It won't be too far away. In case the impatient Uncle Yang beats and scolds the officials, she can also step forward to stop him immediately.

Mao'er is very satisfied with her life on the mountain, and she doesn't quite understand the official's decision, but she will never allow others to touch the official's finger, even Uncle Yang!
"When is Brother Chu going to move out?" Sure enough, Uncle Yang asked bluntly.

Chen Chu laughed and said, "Why should I move out? Uncle and all the uncles built a new house for me, and I haven't enjoyed living in it yet."

"If we don't move away, then we are going to be arrested and sent to prison? We are fleeing households, how can we live with the official servant?"

Yang Youtian continued to speak angry words.

Chen Chu shook his head and smiled wryly, "Uncle, in my heart, you and aunt are no different from blood relatives. If uncle says this, he will feel more at ease, and I will just listen."

"You feel good when I say this!" Yang Youtian was a little excited, and then said urgently: "Brother Chu! Isn't it good to live happily on the mountain? Why do you want to be a falcon dog for the puppet Qi?"

"Uncle, it's fun to be on the mountain. But I think" Chen Chu looked back at Mao'er, who was sitting on the threshold, with worry and nervousness on his small face, and then slowly said: "I think, in the future, I will be with Mao'er." Now that my son has a child, he will not be confined to a small area because of his status as an escapee. I think he can go and see this wonderful world of rivers and mountains."

Chen Chu glanced at Yang Dalang again, and continued: "I think, Dalang and his brothers can marry a woman who knows the cold and the hot, and experience the joy of being a husband and a father."

"I also hope that Aunt Yang, Aunt Yao, Aunt Wu and my cat will have silk to wear every day, and they won't have to cry all night secretly to receive a good cloth.

I also want Hutou, Dung Girl, Xiao Yi, and Erlang to be able to read and write, to eat meat and drink milk every day, and to grow in good health.
I also hope that you uncles can rest, drink tea, hug your grandchildren, and stop jumping mountains and streams all day long to hunt roe and rabbits in exchange for some rations."

"." Yang Youtian was dumbfounded by the series of comparisons, and after a while he murmured: "Brother Chu, is there such a good way of life under the mountain?"

"Uncle, if the world is bad, let's change it to a better one. Where there is a break, we will mend it, and if there is a leak, we will block it. Those uncles who formed an association with the uncle to fight against the gold back then, did they just want to earn money?" Is it a good world? If we have been hiding in the mountains, wouldn’t my descendants and grandchildren of Dalang’s generation have to suffer in this bad world?”

"Hey" Yang Youtian sighed for a while, perhaps because the setbacks of the year were still fresh in his memory, he said in a waned way: "Is it possible for you guys to change this world? I think Da Zhou has long since given up on the Northern Expedition."

However, Chen Chu couldn't help laughing, "Uncle, then Da Zhou is a good man? My wife is from the Tokyo city of Da Zhou, but she has suffered a lot since she grew up all the way? Uncle, you used to live Under the rule of the Great Zhou, was Tongshan County the Land of Ultimate Bliss at that time? The Emperor of the Great Zhou was incompetent in guarding the land, abandoned his ancestral temple and harmed the people, and he still counted on them."

Da Zhou is Yang Youtian's spiritual pillar. Hearing Chen Chu's evaluation, he couldn't help arguing: "The morals of the world have always been like this. Although the Da Zhou officials can't avoid exploiting the people, they still give our farmers a way to survive! It's better than the puppet Qi. Quite a few."

Although he knew that Yang Youtian's cognition had great historical limitations, Chen Chu still couldn't help feeling angry when he heard it, "Is it right that this world has always been like this? If this world has always been like this, then this world should be smashed to pieces." !"

Yang Youtian looked at Chen Chu in astonishment, and Yang Zhen also looked over.

They were silent for a while, Yang Youtian suddenly stood up, turned his back to Chen Chuyou and sighed: "I don't care about the affairs of you young people from now on. But Brother Chu also has a family, so you need to be more careful in doing things, don't let your family Worry."

After all, the old man walked into the night, his waist slightly raised, as if he had suddenly aged a few years.

Yang Dalang, who was still in place, scanned Chen Chu up and down, smiled and gave the latter a fist on the shoulder, "Brother Chu, is what you just said true?"

Chen Chu looked at Yang Zhen calmly, and after a while, he suddenly laughed and punched him back, "I'm talking nonsense! How about convincing uncle, hey, is your eloquence okay?"

"Awesome!" Yang Zhen gave Chen Chu a thumbs up, and then said half seriously and half jokingly: "However, my blood is hot from what I heard just now! If brother Chu has great ambitions, he must be better than Dad and the others back then. You Better than them!"

"Hey, I have great ambitions, but I just want to earn more money so that we can live better."

"Yeah. I'm back." Yang Zhen smiled and walked home, but when he reached the gate of the courtyard, he turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Chu, if you can really make everyone live the good life you said , I, Yang Zhen, would like to sell my life to you."

"Haha, what's the use of my dog's life."

"Haha, let's go."

The father and son walked into the dense night one after the other, and the courtyard fell silent.

Chen Chu sat back on the long wooden bench.

The cat on the threshold stood up and walked over slowly, and sat down beside Chen Chu.

"Officer."

"I was joking with Uncle and the others just now."

"Well"

The cat slowly tilted its body and put its head on Chen Chu's shoulder.

Chen Chu naturally stretched out his hand to wrap around the cat's slender waist.

But tonight Mao'er was also very active, stretching out his arms to hug Chen Chu's waist.

"Officer, let the cat joke with you too."

"Ok?"

".Mao'er is a woman. She doesn't have the mind of a man, nor does she have the ambition of a man's family. Mao'er wants officials to live a life of peace and joy.

The cat only wants the official to be the hero of the cat, and does not want the official to be the hero of the world.”

Mao'er paused for a moment, but suddenly there was an indescribable surge of power in his soft voice, "But if an official thinks this world is not pleasing to the eye and wants to smash it, Mao'er will hand you an axe; If the official sees that sky is not pleasing to the eye and wants to pierce it, the cat will help you to help the sky ladder.
Anyway, the officials only need to remember that in this life, if the officials work as farmers, the cat will be a peasant woman; if the officials are begging, the cat will be a beggar woman;
If officials live, cats will live; if officials die, cats will die too."
