Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 694

When people pass middle age, life and death seem to have become a norm.

Bai Shi left.

With the logic of self-deception, he lied to himself for a lifetime, and finally passed away happily.

The world laughs at Bai's stupidity, but some people think that Bai's life is not bad.

Although her two biological sons were gone and her relationship with Sun Xunting was not very good, she was lucky to meet Zuo Fu.

A capable person didn't care about her past, but gave her the greatest respect.Perhaps Bai thought it was the result of her blackmailing her children, but who in this world can blackmail Zuo Fu?

The regret of losing her son was made up for by the third generation, and she lived a prosperous life. Compared with the former queen mother, she was actually much happier.

Zuo Fu felt a little sad.

Bai's departure reminded her of her own age, as well as the age of her parents.

It seems that at this stage of life, the sense of happiness will drop sharply, because the ensuing parting of life and death always catches people off guard.

Just one year after Bai's death, Father Zuo's life also came to an end.

In fact, considering his physical condition back then, it was a miracle that he could live to this age.But as a child, how many people think that their parents live too long?
Whether they leave at 70, or at [-], or even at [-]... as long as they walk in front of themselves, this kind of sadness and grief is irresistible.

However, less than three months after Father Zuo passed away, Liu Runiang also passed away.

Within three months, his parents passed away one after another, which dealt a great blow to Zuo Fu.In the previous life, I was alone, without care, and never felt the love of my parents.In this life, her soul wandered alone in this other world. It was Zuo Dayou and Liu Runiang who gave her the courage to live.

Now that the two old people are gone, her heart seems to be empty.

Although, she was already mentally prepared.At this age, the parents have been watching for a day, and the parents have lived to more than 90, which is quite a long life.

But when this day really came, Zuo Fuyi, who was kneeling in the mourning hall, felt like a knife was twisting his heart, and his grief was unbearable.

Zuo Fu sent an order to Ding You.

The emperor naturally rejected Zuo Fu's request.

Even if the emperor has no rights, this trick of three requests and three resignations is still to be done.

I thought Zuo Fu was just doing a show this time, but how could he know that Zuo Fu is very determined this time, he must go home to Ding You.

The people in the cabinet are in a hurry.

You have only been the chief assistant for four years, and this term has not yet expired, so you will go home now, so who will do the work for you?

In fact, Zuo Fu didn't want to be an official for a long time.

Since she was 17 years old, she has been fighting for this family and for the talents on this land.

She has turned from a green and immature girl to an old woman, and she is also in her fifties this year.

Years of fatigue and the departure of her parents made her physically and mentally exhausted.

Everything is on the right track, and everyone has acquiesced to everything now, so why does she still sit in that position?In fact, does it matter whether she sits in that position or not?
With her parents gone, the only thing she can do for them is Ding You.

She won't learn any ancient etiquette, but this time she really wants to do another act of gratitude for her parents who have passed away.

And who will be the chief assistant, this matter has long been determined.If there is an emergency for the first assistant, it is natural for the second assistant to go up.If you don't feel like it, you can choose again.

Now that the imperial court is full of people from the Left School, Zuo Fu doesn't think that if he retreats, everything will return to the original point.

Once the wheels are spinning, it's hard to stop, especially when everyone has a taste of the sweetness.

In 1681 AD, the 20th year of Chengyuan, the famous No. [-] female official resigned from her position as chief assistant and returned home to Ding You.

This caused trepidation among the subjects, but an article by Zuofu calmed them down.

Think about it too.

Their adults have been running around for them since they were 17 years old.For the sake of the people of the world, I cannot always accompany my parents and children.Now, she is also in her 50s, she has never been willful, but only this time, she wants to be selfish, resign and go home to her parents Ding You.

Moreover, the current second assistant is also Zuofer's student.People who followed Zuo Fu when they were in Changzhou, I think this Lin Cifu will also uphold Master Zuo's will and lead everyone to continue to live a good life.

Ding You is very hard work.Live in a hut, vegetarian and plain clothes, no entertainment of any kind.

When parents are alive, there is still a place to return; when parents are gone, there is only a way back in life.

During the days when he lived in a hut, Zuo Fu deeply understood the meaning of this sentence.

From now on, no one will give me lucky money anymore...

Time can smooth everything out, and sadness will also fade away, but as time goes by, Zuo Fu always feels that the appearance of his parents has become clearer in his mind.

The more time passed, the more she missed the days when she was with her parents.

In a blink of an eye, three years later, when Zuo Fu walked out of the thatched cottage in plain clothes, she couldn't restrain her emotions again, and wept.

She has been human for two lives, but she only got the love of her parents for one life.

This love is so deep that it is difficult for three years to wear away the pain in my heart.She always thinks of the scene when Liu Runiang hugged her and cried when she woke up for the first time; she also always thinks of the appearance of the father who she once thought was a fool with the word "kill" tied on his head...

Many, many scenes always come to mind.

The past is like wind, it turns out to be false.

People are like the wind, and the past is unforgettable.

However, there is always life.

People can't always indulge in this kind of sadness.Looking at the worried eyes of her husband and children, Zuo Fu also felt that he should cheer up.

After reading books in thatched cottage for three years, my knowledge has improved again, so now I don't need to manage the government anymore, so I can travel thousands of miles.

Sun Xunzhen has always said that he wants to take himself out for fun, and he has also complained that he has too little time for his family.Now that I am free, I can go sightseeing with him.

Although she is 56 and Sun Xunting is over 60, they are both in good health and the roads are well built, so the journey will not be too hard.

After packing their luggage, under the repeated instructions of the children, Zuo Fu and Sun Xunting took Chun Yu and Shun Yan and a few guards in plain clothes and set foot on the road to Changzhou.

It is also a very meaningful thing to re-walk the path I walked in the past.I was suddenly transferred to Qiongzhou in the past, and the scene of the people sending me off was still vivid in my memory. It was at that time that I had the idea of ​​serving all living beings for the first time from a person who only had himself.It was also in Changzhou that I found the meaning of coming to this world and my own way.

Changzhou is the starting point of becoming an official.

Many years have passed, and I don't know how the old folks are doing?

Zuo Fu kept a low profile and didn't want everyone to know about it.She just wanted to walk around, to see, and then set off from Changzhou, to Zhejiang, to Huzhou, to those places where she had fought.

Changzhou is already quite prosperous, even surpassing Nanjing.

It was the first to carry out infrastructure construction and economic adjustment, and the people of Changzhou are now living very happily.Zuo Fu looked at the people on the street, dressed in clean clothes, many ordinary people even had some clothes of good material, many people had bicycles, and her heart seemed to be filled with the loss of her parents.

After all, the things that have been done still leave traces, and half of the ideals of the year have been realized.

Everyone has food to eat, everyone has clothes to wear and books to read.

In Changzhou, if you talk to people casually, you can find that these people are educated.However, soon, the older people recognized Zuo Fu.Soon, the common people flocked to the hotel where Zuofu stayed, wanting to see his parents and officials.

Some people were too old to walk, but when they heard that Zuo Fu had come to Changzhou, they asked their children to carry them to see Zuo Fu.

Zuo Fu was once again moved by the simplicity of the people.

She sat on the side of the street, just like an ordinary person, chatting with the people and asking about their lives.The young and strong back then are now old people just like Zuo Fu.They gathered around Zuofu and talked about the battle to defend the city.

Time flies by, but some things will never be erased.

After staying in Changzhou for a few days, after visiting many places of interest, I went to pay homage to the soldiers who defended the city and sacrificed their lives. After chatting with them for a long time, I left Changzhou and went to Huzhou.

Back then, she fought here.

She still hasn't been able to forget the old man who fought desperately.

He is not from the Zuo Family Army, he is just an old man who lost his family in the war.However, he inherited the spirit of the Zuo Family Army.

If there is an intruder, even an old man will defend his home with all his might.

People tend to be sentimental when they are old.

Walking the road I have walked, there is always some melancholy lingering.

When she took the cruise ship to Qiongzhou, everyone knew that she was back.

The owners of the caves came to the pier one after another to welcome them.They will not forget this man.

This is the man who gave them a fair deal, didn't allow others to discriminate against them, and gave them a good life.

Qiongzhou has changed too much.

So much so that Zuo Fu was in a trance.

As the frontier base of maritime trade, Qiongzhou pays a lot of taxes to the treasury every year.Even so, there is still a lot of money left in the local area for infrastructure construction and upgrading of various equipment.

The people here are not even allowed to be poor.Because there is always a huge labor gap, you will be discriminated against even if you want to be lazy, and you will be forced to work.No idlers are allowed in Qiongzhou!
Zuo Fu was wearing slippers and walking along the seashore holding hands with Sun Xunting.The awareness of environmental protection that has been publicized early on is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so the sea here is still beautiful.

Sun Xuntang actually came back to Qiongzhou for the first time.Although he has made such a big business, in fact, he spends most of his time in Yingtian and has not been to many places.

Traveling was a hassle before Zoff came to this age.Coupled with the restless world, the journey is also a relatively dangerous thing.Therefore, it was also the first time for Sun Xuntang to come to Qiongzhou and see the sea.

Walking along the beach is not enough.Together, the two rented a boat.There are many luxury boats in Qiongzhou, for no other reason than to satisfy some people who want to ride the waves in the sea.

These boats will only stroll in the coastal waters, and they can light their own fires and cook on board.

Sea fishing is a very interesting thing.It will be very interesting to make delicious food from the caught things by yourself.

Of course, the level of the two is not very good.Sun Xunting usually goes fishing, but sea fishing is obviously more difficult.The two worked hard for a long time, but in the end they didn't gain anything.If it weren't for the accompanying captain, the few people would probably be starving.

Fry some small miscellaneous fish in a pan of oil, stir-fry the pickled vegetables, boil the small miscellaneous fish into a thick white soup, add pickles, it is really delicious to the extreme.

The weather in Qiongzhou is hot, but it doesn't feel very hot floating on the sea.

Drinking a glass of chilled wine and eating a few small dried fish will make you happy.

In fact, Zoffe hadn't been this happy in a long time.

After all, this time she really had to unload the burden, and she could start to live a life of retirement.

Qiongzhou has a lot of delicious food.Now that the roads are well repaired, the two floated around Qiongzhou, coming down to taste local delicacies when they came to a place.Some Li people and Miao people heard that Master Zuo was back, and they went to wait for them specially. When they arrived, they didn't care whether Zuo Fu wanted to or not, they just pulled a carriage and took them to their cave or stockade, and then went It is a good meal of wine and food, and then it is interesting to experience the local customs.

After playing in Qiongzhou for almost two months, the group left reluctantly and went to Guangzhou on a cruise ship.

Guangzhou can be described as a gourmet paradise.Although they are getting older, the two of them still have good appetites. After eating in Guangzhou for more than half a month, Zuo Fu suddenly had a whim and wanted to go abroad.

When Zuo Fu took his household registration to the Yamen and asked for a foreign certificate, a group of local officials were shocked.

You always play around in the country, why do you still want to go out?Although there is a big iron boat now, with your status, who can afford this accident?
Report immediately.

Fortunately, there is a telegram now.

There is no need for people to rush back and forth like in the past.

In the end, the reply I got was: the teacher can go wherever he wants, just strengthen his defense.

Zuo Fu saw that you even built a fleet for yourself, which is too wasteful of people and money.After thinking about it, he took a step back and said that he just wanted to go to Dongpu to have a look, and he didn't need to send any frigates, just take a cruise ship by himself.

When they heard that they were only going to Japan, these officials were relieved.But when I heard it, I actually wanted to take a cruise ship to Japan like ordinary people, is that okay?

They ran to the hotel where Zuo Fu stayed and took turns persuading him.At the end, Zuo Fu's temper also came up, and he scolded: "Why are you so nervous? The people in Dongying can eat people or something? This cruise ship can arrive in Dongying in two or three days. If you are worried, let the envoys go Let me tell you, when I get there, I will be protected by the shogunate, and I can also promote diplomatic relations between the two countries. Isn’t this a good thing with multiple actions? What are you worried about? You also underestimate the guards around me! Just a few of them, I still have firearms on me, so I won’t be afraid even if dozens of people come! All right, let’s get your seal stamped!”

A few magistrates dare to say anything again.

Is she the chief assistant, but the Zuo Family Army is still in her hands!Moreover, the hall is full of her students!Even Shoufu is!Since Shoufu is not worried anymore, what are they worried about?
However, it is still necessary to send someone to say hello to the envoys stationed in the local area first, and make arrangements in advance.After all, this master can't make any mistakes!
