Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 194 Begging
"I know, as long as they don't cause trouble and are willing to live a peaceful life, I will naturally care more about them! During these days, I have seen the smile on my father's face become brighter. If Mother and Xiangxi can change their minds and be safe If you come back, everything will be complete!"

Da Ya was very emotional. She still couldn't help thinking and worrying about Xiang Xi and Liu Xiangchun, whose whereabouts were unknown.

Yangliu County.

It has only been ten days since Tan Hai came here, and he has already recruited thousands of young and strong recruits. On this day, he made his way to the small mountain village where Xiangxi had taken refuge, and finally got some clues.

Xiangxi took his mother and son with him, and probably hid in the deep mountains.

"Fellow folks, I am under General Mighty, and I am here to recruit recruits specially! As long as people within a radius of ten miles sign up to join the army today and tomorrow, I will use my own money to subsidize two taels of silver for each recruit. Today A total of [-] people will be recruited from tomorrow and tomorrow, those who want to sign up come quickly, after tomorrow there will be no such additional subsidies!"

After Tan Hai finished speaking, he immediately took out two hundred taels of silver bills and asked the guards to go to the county town to exchange them for two taels of broken silver.

As if the news had grown wings, it flew all over ten miles and eight villages in half a day, and there was an endless stream of young men who came to sign up.The name of a mighty general, two taels of silver, no matter what it is, it is very attractive.

There were a lot of people who signed up, but many of them were eliminated, and only those strong boys between fifteen and thirty were accepted.The locals who were born and bred were given priority, and the Orions were given priority in admission. The hundred carefully selected recruits were soon full.

"A group of ten people, go to the nearby mountains to find the county magistrate Rao Xiangxi and his family. If anyone finds it, I will reward 50 taels of silver!"

Tan Hai decisively made arrangements.

With military orders like mountains and material incentives, the ten search teams worked very hard and actively, and even mobilized family members to help search together.Three days later, Tan Hai finally saw his long-lost relatives.

"Cousin, are my father, elder brother, elder sister, and Erya all okay?" Seeing his relatives, Xiang Xi couldn't help crying with joy, Tan Hai couldn't help being very surprised by the concern for his family in his words, "Everyone is okay, It’s just that Da Ya once fell into the abyss and almost died.” Tan Hai replied subconsciously.

"What? Is Eldest Sister okay? How is Eldest Sister?" Xiang Xi was shocked, his face was full of anxiety, worry and sadness.

Tan Hai smiled gratifiedly: "I was injured at the time, and I was injured at the bottom of the cliff for a long time, and now I'm fine!" He suddenly remembered that Xiang Xi had broken with Da Ya, so he said half-truth, half-truth, and wanted to test it out. west.

"Is the injury serious? Didn't it leave any sequelae?"

The sincere care in Xiangxi's words made Tan Hai feel much better.

It’s good to know you’re wrong, otherwise, there’s really no way out!
While the two were talking, Liu Xiangchun's voice sounded very abruptly: "What? Did Da Ya fall off the cliff? Was she injured?"

Xiang Xi and Tan Hai turned around and saw that she was standing under a tree a few steps away, her face was pale.Obviously, he was taken aback by their conversation.

"Auntie, don't worry." Tan Hai was taken aback, and quickly explained cautiously: "Da Ya only suffered a small injury, and the one who was seriously injured was the person who rescued her, but both of them are fine now, and the wounds are recovering very well! By the way, the two spent a month or so together at the bottom of the cliff, and they got married when they were at the bottom of the cliff!"

Liu Xiangchun was overjoyed: "Da Ya only suffered a minor injury, which is great, what a blessing!" As he spoke, he couldn't help saying sadly: "Married to the person who saved her? Or on the cliff? Did she get married at all? Isn't she being too reckless? Is that person reliable? What's his family background? Is he sincere to you?"

A series of questions, anxious and worried.

Xiang Xi was also full of uneasiness and sadness, looking at Tan Hai eagerly, afraid of hearing any bad news from him.

A warm current surged in Tan Hai's heart, and he said with a gratified smile, "Don't worry, aunt, that man is both civil and military, and he is very good in all aspects. The most important thing is that he is sincere to Da Ya, otherwise he wouldn't risk it." He jumped off the cliff to save Da Ya. If he hadn't rescued Da Ya, Da Ya would definitely not be able to come back alive. His character and sincerity to Da Ya are beyond doubt!"

"Very good, that's good, so I can feel relieved!" Liu Xiangchun let out a long sigh of relief, and sat down on the ground, unable to stop the tears streaming down, filled with remorse.

At the beginning, when Da Ya came back with her child, she shouldn't have been bewitched by He Ningxiang to throw stones at her daughter.Nor should she follow Xiangxi to take office and leave behind her daughter who has gone through hardships and come home. If she always keeps her daughter in her heart and loves her more, her daughter will not fall off the cliff.

The past was unbearable to look back on, every single thing, as long as she thought about it, her heart felt like it was torn apart, the pain was unbearable, and she was extremely ashamed.In this life, does she still have a chance to make up for it?
Xiangxi's mood was also extremely heavy, and the shame and remorse in his heart were no less than Liu Xiangchun's.

Tan Hai sighed: "Xiangxi, what are your plans?"

Lowering his head to the west, he said in shame: "I want to go back to the village, ask for forgiveness from my father, elder brother, elder sister, and Erya, and I will work the fields at home in the future."

"What? You don't want to be an official anymore?" Tan Hai was very surprised, and persuaded him: "Han Chuang has studied hard for so many years, and it doesn't seem good to give up when he says he wants to? Now, Yunshan has been officially appointed by the court as Qingshui The governor of the Jiang area, you can find him, and it is not difficult to help you find an official position as a county magistrate."

That's right, Yunshan made every effort to turn the tide in times of crisis. Because of his great achievements, his reputation was greatly shaken and he was well-known throughout the country.The people of Qingshuijiang voluntarily wrote a ten-thousand-character letter, and entrusted General Weiwu to submit it to the Holy Majesty, asking the Holy Majesty to reward and promote Yunshan.After the sage sent someone to verify the truth, Longxin was overjoyed, so he broke the rules and promoted Yunshan to be a dignified governor.

"What? Yunshan, now he is the governor of the second rank?" Xiangxi was very surprised, logically speaking, how could it be impossible?
Tan Hai nodded affirmatively: "Yes, that's exactly the case!" He described in detail how Yunshan defended his family and country, how he assisted the mighty general to recover the Fucheng, and after the Fucheng was relieved, he acted decisively for the people and the court. How many practical things have been done, and how many good things are well-known.

"Yunshan is a good guy, I'm ashamed of myself." Xiangxi admired sincerely, feeling bitter in his heart. If he had been a down-to-earth person and prepared well for the exam, he should have been able to win the second-class Jinshi.Only
If he had won the second-class Jinshi and established a good relationship with the Qiao family, he should have been able to enter the Hanlin Academy back then.The Imperial Academy is the safest place in the capital, and it doesn't have to suffer from wars at all.However, at the beginning, he was obsessed with ghosts, so he fell headfirst into the gentle trap set by He Ningxiang.Not being able to concentrate on studying, not to mention, even led to a drastic change in temperament, and even the family members were alienated and indifferent.

Yesterday's cause and today's result are all caused by him, and he can't blame others.Fortunately, his family is still willing to pay attention to him and accept him, so that he will not regret for life.

Tan Hai said: "Don't underestimate yourself. You were much better at studying than Yunshan back then, and you were recognized as a talented person. Now you are only in your 20s, and everything is still in time. If you feel that being a Jinshi is not pleasant, it will be a hindrance." For the official career, why don't you take the exam again. Don't worry, Da Ya and Xiang Dong have told you before I came that you are welcome to go home."

"Big Brother and Big Sister, did you say you welcome me home?" Xiang Xi's eyes lit up, and immediately, tears welled up in his eyes, and he asked in disbelief.

"Yes, they have made it clear that they will not pursue the past! In their hearts, you are still their good brother. They all miss you very much. They hope that you are safe and sound, and that you have a bright future. !"

Tan Hai nodded affirmatively, and suddenly remembered something, took out a money bag from his backpack and handed it to Xiangxi: "By the way, Da Ya also asked me to bring you and Auntie a few silver notes, a total of 5000 taels What! With the 5000 taels of bank notes, whether you want to recover or take the exam again, you don’t have to worry about money!”

"Thank you, elder sister. I owe elder sister all my life, and I can't repay it in this life. How can I have the face to accept the 5000 taels of silver?" Xiang Xi pushed the money bag back, so moved that he couldn't help crying. springs.

Tan Hai sighed: "What do you say in the family? Accept it, even if it is for your aunt and children, you have to accept it. Otherwise, how will you live in the future? Whether it is to continue to seek an official and a half If you don’t have a job, you should take the Jinshi exam again. Without money, it’s just empty words.” Yunshan is a good governor, but if he goes west to take office, he must also manage from top to bottom.

Xiang Xi smiled wryly and said, "Thank you, cousin. I'm not interested in being an official now. I just want to go back to the village and reunite with my family." After so many things, if he hasn't looked away, he is still obsessed with power If he is rich, he is really hopeless!
After hiding together in the mountains for so long, how could Liu Xiangchun not understand Xiangxi's thoughts?She wiped her tears and said to Tan Hai: "Xiao Hai, since Xiangxi wants to go back to the village, then stop trying to persuade him! You can also return this money to Da Ya. Xiangxi has been fighting in the mountains for the past few months. A lot of prey has been exchanged for dozens of taels of silver. If you go back to the village, it will take a long time for a few dozen taels of silver! He is too old to rely on Da Ya anymore, it is time to rely on himself!"

"What? Aunt? Even you agree with Xiangxi going back to the village to farm?" Tan Hai was very surprised. Didn't aunt always want to earn an imperial order for Xiangxi?
Liu Xiangchun nodded: "Yes, now my aunt doesn't think about anything else, she just hopes that the family will be safe and sound. The prosperity and wealth are just passing clouds, which makes people feel very uneasy. My aunt still feels that farming is more important than farming. Everything is good, I remember Da Ya once said such a sentence, what is called ordinary happiness. Now that I think about it, it is indeed the case, only ordinary happiness is happiness!"

She really missed those happy times in Shanqian Village, she missed her child's father, she missed Daya, Erya and Xiangdong, Shancha's family, everyone in Tan's family, and even the people in the village. Every plant and tree, I miss the honeysuckle on Honeysuckle Mountain.

Pan's mother-in-law, who has always been very disliked by her, now thinks about it, and she also feels very kind.She also finds the family of the four younger siblings who are falling on both sides so annoying, and she can forgive it.

In the past, she was wrong!However, she also secretly rejoiced that she had followed, otherwise, how pitiful would Xiangxi and Pingan be?

Thinking of this, she finally couldn't help crying loudly, as if she wanted to cry out all the sorrow, remorse and suffering in this life.

"Okay, let's go home first! We'll talk about everything when we get back!"

Tan Hai hurriedly comforted him, and with a slight wave of his hand, two soldiers immediately stepped forward to help pack his belongings.Soon, Liu Xiangchun hugged Xiaopingan and got into the carriage with Aunt Meng.The rest of the people rode horses and walked, and went straight to Hulu County.

A few days later.

Da Ya was picking vegetables under the pear tree in the courtyard when there was a knock on the courtyard door.

"Big ya, I'm cousin, open the door!" This was Tan Hai's voice.
