I don't want to be wronged again

Chapter 47 Chapter 47, Qingzhou 1
The branches and leaves of several hundred-year-old trees in the courtyard overlap, blocking layers of heat.Dozens of five-colored goldfish are swimming under the lotus leaves in the two large glazed tanks under the corridor; from time to time, one or two cicadas sing faintly.

Sun Zhanyi lifted the corner of his skirt and stepped gently into the door of his mother's room. He waved his hands to Jiang Sha and Cheng Luo who were guarding the door, and whispered, "Mother, are you awake?"

Cheng Luo and Jiang Sha opened the curtains, pursed their lips and said with a smile: "Miss, Madam has already got up, you don't have to tiptoe."

The lake-colored soft silk curtain in the inner room was lifted, and a girl in a light crimson gauze shirt came out with a copper basin and smiled: "Miss, Madam has finished washing and washing, and is eating bird's nest porridge. May I ask the maid to serve you a bowl of porridge too?" come?"

In the house, Li Haizhu was wearing a homely autumn-scented cloud gauze bedding and a jade-colored dark flower solid gauze skirt.Since he had just woken up from a nap, he only tied a jade hairpin into a loose bun.Hearing her daughter coming, she put down the filigree silver bowl in her hand, wiped the corners of her mouth with a silk cloth, and raised her hand to call her over: "The sun is still poisonous, what are you doing here now? Not with a girl, Chun Xian Where are the girls from Chunyuan?" Then he turned to tell the girls beside him: "Hong Ling, go and order a bowl of the honeysuckle dew that Han Li brought back last time for Zhan Yi to clear her of the summer heat. Remember not to Add ice, this child has a weak spleen and stomach, and can't bear the cold air."

Hong Ling smiled and agreed to go.Zhanyi took his mother's hand and acted like a baby: "Mother, I let Chunxian and Chunnong stay in the house to cut clothes for Hanli. The bigger Qiufeng and Qiuling in her room were taken out this time. The remaining Qiuyi and Qiushui are still too young, so it’s good to look at the house, how do you know other things? The cold oak grows fast, and the underwear for changing seasons must be small again this time, I asked them to hurry up and drive them out Chun Jing came out with me and walked to the Quqiao. I saw the lotus was budding, so I asked her to pick it up from Mrs. Zhao, who was on the boat, and put it in a vase for my mother."

Mrs. Sun hugged Zhanyi happily, and stroked her hair: "My Zhanyi has grown up obediently, and I know how to worry about it. Since I have arranged for you to marry the Gu family, I am relieved. Your father-in-law is now doing well in his official career. Our two families are also good friends. Gu Cong and you are childhood sweethearts, and your character and talent are so outstanding. It is inevitable that you will be promoted to an official position in the future. I am relieved of you and only worry about your sister. Now I am six or seven years old , your father is still letting her go, not letting her feet be bound, and running around behind your cousin every day. The same goes for needlewomen, and she even found an old monk to learn kung fu. How do you grow up? Find her a husband's house?"

When Zhanyi heard her mother talk about the Gu family, she buried her face in her arms in shame, and when she heard about Han Li, she laughed again: "Mother, you still said to bind her feet, my sister can't speak until she is two years old, It is said that the second young lady of the Sun family is dumb. Didn't she start talking when she saw my feet bound?"

Mrs. Sun sighed and said: "When I first heard Han Li speak, I almost died of joy. I don't even care about what she wants! The stars in the sky can be plucked too! If she wants to pretend to be a boy, she can pretend to be a lady from a rich family." It’s not uncommon to raise boys. It’s okay to change it back when you grow up. Besides, your sister speaks since she speaks, and she speaks and acts. How can she be an ordinary child? Even the most mature person is better than her! Your father is happy He couldn't even close his mouth, and he said that there was a child prodigy in our family, and that the Sun family had successors. He also made people say: "Miss Sun's family is very ill, and she has to be blessed by the Buddha, so she can only be raised safely in a nunnery." I raised a son outside, and now I bring him back to raise him." She lowered her head and took a sip of her tea, complaining: "Now it seems that he just played along with your sister's temper. It was clearly decided at that time Be careful, you have to keep cheating like this! Not only your father, but even your uncle and cousin, I think they all have the same idea! They all spoil the Han oak like a king, and run around every day having fun, Which family's parents-in-law can tolerate such a wild temper in the future! And which family's son-in-law would dare to marry her! Oh no, just thinking about it makes my head hurt so badly."

At this time, Sun Zhangyang and his son, who were far away in Qingzhou, Shandong, were not so comfortable.Just because Han Li thought of it one day, he drew a rough map of the world, invited Haipan to come over, marked the route of Magellan, and pointed out to him that America and Australia are still two blank places. Haipan suddenly understood the hugeness of this. Li Yi, after exchanging knowing glances with Han Li, his mind turned quickly: "I have to take the boat with me personally - I don't worry about changing it to someone else. Don't worry, my sailors are all following Babao Eunuchs who have been to the West are the most outstanding talents in the world, if we can’t find the new continent you mentioned, it’s even more impossible for others to find it.”

Han Li really wanted to follow him to be Magellan in this life, but Haipan categorically disagreed, so he had to stay at home in frustration, and could only pester Sun Zhangyang from time to time, and go out with Sun Zhangyang to relax.

This time he followed Sun Zhangyang to the outside of the customs, and on the way back he detoured through Qingzhou, why did he detour, it turned out that Sun Zhangyang was going to visit Zhanyi's father-in-law - Gu Guangyi is currently serving as the prefect of Qingzhou.

Just after Jinan, the mood of Sun and his son began to sink.This year Jinan and Qingzhou were plagued by locusts, followed by severe drought. The fields have not had a drop of water for three or four months.The leaves were eaten by the locusts, and the bark was stripped off by the hungry people. As far as the eye could see, it was white and yellow, and there was no green shadow.The hungry people who can walk have fled to famine, and some are too old and weak to walk, so they can only lie on the ground waiting to die.

Han Li asked: "Father, shouldn't the court send people to help at this time? Why do so many people still starve to death?"

Sun Zhangyang sighed and was also deeply puzzled, thinking of going to Qingzhou Mansion immediately to ask Gu Guangyi why.

The Sun family's motorcade was so strong that some of the disaster victims who wanted to step forward to intercept it stopped their thoughts of robbery.The Sun family didn't dare to stay too long, and galloped all the way to Qingzhou.

After passing a place called Jujube Forest, it was already late afternoon, and the people and horses were tired. Sun Zhangyang greeted the butler, and the group stopped, gathered in a circle, drank some water, and beat their teeth.

As soon as Han Yue held a piece of cake in his hand and wanted to put it in his mouth, he heard a slow mechanical sound of "呯, 呯" from behind the two trunks of the two trees on the side of the road that had been stripped of their bark and only had white blossoms left.He stretched out his head curiously, and saw a young man sitting on the ground, holding a hoe, and digging a hole dully one by one.
