The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 289 Problems

On the surface, Ling Xiao didn't care about them at all, but secretly stared at them, especially Nanny Fang.

She looked very honest along the way, as if she was very honest and obedient, and she didn't resist at all.

Ling Xiao would not believe that this woman would be honest, but she poisoned people after collecting money behind her master's back.

How could such a person accept his fate?It feels like she should want to fight back. Nanny Fang's surroundings are loose on the outside and tight on the inside.

After Ling Xiao plotted against Hongyu, he didn't do anything. He just watched Nanny Fang's actions and watched her work hard for her daughter to lose weight.

After that, I saw Nanny Fang falling into despair a little bit, because Nanny Fang knew in her heart that the red jade would be completely destroyed and her beauty would be lost.

The previous red jade belonged to a delicate beauty, which looked pitiful, as crystal clear as dewdrops, and like dewdrops, it was not easy to keep.

This kind of women often has the characteristics that many men pity in their frowns and smiles. They must have a slender waist like a willow in the wind, and have misty and watery eyes.

Hongyu can be regarded as Chuqiao in this type, and Nanny Fang has the idea of ​​flying on a branch and becoming a phoenix, because she feels that her daughter has the strength to become a man's pet.

In order to achieve this goal, Nanny Fang gave up a lot of things that she thought were unimportant. Her moral bottom line broke through again and again, but in the end she found that her ideas would never be realized. This possibility made her want to go crazy.

Why is the world so cruel to her?She originally thought that she had a chance to slap Ling Xiao in the face, as long as her daughter's beauty was still there, it would be feasible for a rich and powerful man to come along.

But watching Hongyu become too fat, the whole person seems to become another person. Even people with heavy tastes generally don't like this kind of fat woman.

Nanny Fang vomited blood in despair, because she had a feeling in her heart that this was revenge from the Tao family lady, and it was revenge for her poisoning others!

She hated Ling Xiao to the core. If it wasn't for her, she would have brought her money to marry her daughter into a good family, and she would be able to eat and drink well.

Ling Xiao naturally knew that Nanny Fang was scolding her, so he didn't come forward to beat her and scold her, but asked people to drive Nanny Fang to do more work.

Some people make trouble because they have too little work. If they are so tired that they just want to take a good rest after get off work, they won't make trouble.

This is her revenge on Nanny Fang, so that Nanny Fang can only live the most miserable life while she is alive, and there is no end to it.

Unless she herself died, she would have to do so much work all the time, Ling Xiao made Yu Zhen care about Nanny Fang's life and death.

Let this woman have no chance to make trouble at all. This kind of person who has no moral bottom line is terrible.

As for the future of Nanny Fang's daughter Hongyu, she has not come in time to do bad things, and she is temporarily implicated.

After looking at the situation, if the person is not bad, it is better to relieve her of the effect of fattening medicine and let her live well.

Hongyu is very resigned to her fate. She found that her body became fat and even her own mother began to dislike her.

What can she say?This is his own body, the advantage is that there is no such lewd gaze.

After she had to go to work in the field herself, she realized that the previous suffering was a trivial matter.

Today's days are much more difficult than before, how could this be?
Obviously wanting to live a good life, but find that life is even more difficult.

As time went by, she gradually adapted to life.

I feel a little regretful.

If I had known it would be like this.

She would not follow her mother back to the Tao family's family land.

After knowing what her mother did, Hongyu was completely desperate.

It was too late to say anything now, and she was gradually adapting to her new image.

Go to the fields to do some farm work like the most ordinary girl in this village.

Those days of eating and drinking without worrying about eating and drinking were gradually gone, and she gradually became silent.

Because of her large appetite, she is often in a state of hunger and wants to eat.

She can do more work and walk farther for a bite to eat, thinking about how to get more food.

The two of them, the mother and daughter, had never done any farm work before, and had never been to the village, so naturally they earned less.

As a big belly man, she wants to eat more, and the food that she used to sneer at and didn't like at all has now become gourmet food.

Nanny Fang just watched her daughter's snow-white skin turn dark and rough. Everything was a nightmare for Nanny Fang.

Helplessly, her body gradually weakened, and she became fond of complaining about outsiders, turning over and over again a passage like a wheel every day, and the people around her gradually became indifferent.

On the other hand, Hongyu worked in silence, seldom contradicting Nanny Fang's words, nor trying to stop her mother's complaints, let alone talking to other people, because she knew that the tenant farmers in this village were not on their side.

After a period of tempering, she really wanted to get married, not for any other benefits, but just to be able to eat more food, at least not to wake up from hunger every day, but she soon discovered that the people in the village would not Marry her, because she eats too much, like a rice bucket.

Ordinary people can't afford to support her at all. As a woman, she eats too much. It's thanks to Ling Xiao who sent someone to subsidize part of the food, otherwise, she might not be able to maintain this standard of living.

Hongyu knew that it was thanks to Ling Xiao's subsidy, so she should have rejected it sternly and firmly not wanting extra food, but she didn't have the willpower to refuse this kind of subsidy.

Without those food subsidies, Hongyu felt that she would go from being half-fed to basically starving to death, so she would have been receiving this kind of subsidy all along.

After these hours of hard work, Hongyu found that she had changed, no longer thinking about whether a man looks good, and caring more about who will feed her when she is hungry.

She was ambitious before and wanted to become a member of a rich family, but now she realizes that this is impossible, the matter of her mother is too big.

Nanny Fang's behavior was a stain on her, and it would definitely be fatal news to Hongyu when this incident broke out.

Who would want the poisoner's daughter?Mother Fang's sins will only make her own daughter take the blame. This is the mentality of ordinary people.

But what can she say?As a daughter, she could only accept that Nanny Fang did bad things for the sake of her own future.

Since she has enjoyed everything her mother has given her, she won't be able to escape when it comes time to settle the matter, so Hongyu will naturally accept her fate.

Feeling very tired from living, she wanted someone to help her, so that the two of them could walk slowly side by side.

In the process of working, she found that men with stronger bodies seemed more attractive.

Ling Xiao noticed the change in Hongyu, and didn't say much, and decided to see the situation.

She wants to relieve Hongyu from the effect of fattening medicine, but definitely not now.

Mother Fang has always been bold, stupid and poisonous.

People's hearts are sometimes changeable, and we will talk about it later.

And so three years passed.

Tao Er, who had finished his filial piety, thought about getting back up.

But I found that I couldn't find what I was missing for a while.

There is no way out after the elders are gone, leaving a message to go home and wait.

Tao Er waited at home for a long time until he felt hopeless.

He was so angry that he wanted to scold others at home but didn't dare to scold him, so he vented his anger on the family members.

At this moment, the official who replaced him was arrested, which frightened Tao Erlang.

For a while, I don't know what happened to that official?You must know that he is a bit frightened now.

Later, after inquiring, I found out that after receiving a lot of bribes, the person was reported and completely collapsed, even his family was implicated.

But Tao Erlang was terrified, because he did the same thing when he was there before, that is to say, if he didn't Ding You, their family would be unlucky.

When Tao Erlang found out, he was so frightened that he fell ill. In his official career, he had been enjoying the benefits of the Tao family without knowing it. Only now did he realize that the officialdom has always been dangerous.

After the filial piety, the Ling Xiao siblings heard the news and went to see it, and found that the people in the second room had changed a little. After Tao Baozhu came back, she was taught a good lesson by Mrs. Li. Corrected my daughter's temper.

After Tao Er fell ill, Tao Baozhu learned through his mother's explanation that the children of officials and eunuchs looked very beautiful, but they were likely to be exiled with their families, or they would be murdered, and many of them would become slaves, which made Tao Baozhu very scared. , calm down.

Ling Xiao knew the situation. This was because the reigning emperor was not young, and his sons gathered their own hands one after another to attack the opponent's strength, which affected many fish in the pond.

As a result, during this period of time, many officials were sacked one after another, and many families were even ruined directly. Tao Erlang and Ding Youhou escaped the catastrophe instead.

And this dynasty has lasted for hundreds of years. The malpractice among officials and the annexation of land made more people go bankrupt and join slavery.

It can be said that the entire imperial court is hopeless, and Ling Xiao knows that chaos is coming, so he must make corresponding preparations.

Fortunately, Ling Xiao has been paying attention to exercising in the past few years, and she has recovered to the peak of mortals.

But she didn't move for the time being, because the two children were still too young to move.

In the past few years, after Ling Xiao deliberately fell, he faked a scar.

When you go out, you always wear a half mask, and you will be much safer.

I heard that more beautiful girls were kidnapped and taken away in the street.

She wasn't afraid, but she was afraid of exposing the Tao family's whereabouts.

Then you have to take the child to escape.

It was a pity for Tao Er and his wife to hear the news.

We must know that the longer the body, the more beautiful it is.

Maybe there will be a good marriage partner.

As for the two boys because of long-term activities outside.

There are a lot of sun exposure, and the two of them are not fair skin tones, but wheat-colored.

However, Chinese people are fair and beautiful, so they are a little safer if they are a few degrees darker.

Under Ling Xiao's teaching, the two boys' schedules were very tight, and besides studying Chinese, they also practiced martial arts.

Saburo and Goro worked very hard, because many children around them practiced with them, and they all wanted to compete for the first place.

In this case, the two brothers are not the kind of spoiled and ignorant brothers, but work hard to learn all the knowledge.

Because when Ling Xiao was teaching, even the children of tenant farmers could study with him, which made the whole village respect Ling Xiao very much.

It was because of the arrival of this person that the old farmers in the village began to know that farming is also very particular. It can be said that these farmers did not expect that there are so many ways in farming.

At first, I didn't quite believe it, but after doing a comparative experiment later, the people in the village believed that their lives were much easier. After seeing it, it became a birthday gift.

Later, Ling Xiao only produced a pair of embroidery a year, so he didn't think about mass shipments, and the payment he received was not for silk, but for the kind of relatively easy-to-handle gold cakes, which were used for consumption over the years. .

After knowing that the situation outside was not good, Ling Xiao consolidated the cellar dug by the original owner's parents, and even decorated the cellar entrance.

Most people can't find it no matter how they look at it. She is sure that the treasures left by the original owner's parents are safe and sound, so let them be left to future generations.

Of course, Ling Xiao didn't plan to tell the two children about the cellar, because they were still too young, and he would tell them when they became adults.

The original owner should come back by then, right?Ling Xiao was a little uncertain, but still hoped that the original owner would come back soon.

Later, after harvesting the grain, they clearly said to buy grain, but in fact they hoarded it specially to prepare for possible troubled times.

Anyway, food is the most important thing in the turbulent years, and of course some cloth is also needed.

Most people in the village here also leave a lot of food for future troubles.

They live next to the capital city and don't know how many generations there are.

Naturally, there is a certain degree of alertness, and it feels that something is wrong.

If the food is not sold, find a special place to store it.

Ling Xiao didn't intervene in anything.

She got up early this morning after eating.

Suddenly, they heard crying and shouting outside the courtyard.

After hearing this, Ling Xiao was a little curious, who made the trouble here?

After asking for a while, I realized that Nanny Fang was dead, and Hongyu ran here.

Ow!Mother Fang died?Ling Xiao was slightly taken aback when she heard that, she was not too old.

He should be more than 30 years old, and he died so early probably because he was tired from doing farm work in the past few years.

She was in a bad mood, but Ling Xiao's mood didn't fluctuate much, so he asked someone to bring Hongyu over.

The forced labor reform of the mother and daughter of the other party is the biggest punishment for the mother of the other party.

More than three years have passed, and Nanny Fang finally couldn't survive the physical and mental blows, and died before the cold winter.

"Big lady, bring Hongyu here." As Hongyu came in with disheveled hair, he kowtowed as soon as he came in, "Hongyu has seen big lady."

Ling Xiao looked at her, and found that Hongyu was a completely different person from her past. She remembered that Hongyu was a delicate and beautiful woman at the beginning, and her eyes were the most noticeable, but now she is a fat man.

The current Hongyu is really not the same person as she used to be, which shows that obesity is the enemy of beauty. "Get up! Hongyu, how did Nanny Fang die?" Ling Xiao said.

Hongyu's face has also become fatter, like a pancake face, with rough and dark skin, just like the most common village women in the village.

She said: "I don't know what's going on? My mother was alive and well yesterday. She slept all night and waited for me to see her. She died."

When she said this, Hongyu felt a little sad. After her mother died, she was the only one in this world.

While speaking, her eyes were sore, and she felt like crying, but in the end she held back her tears and didn't cry.

Ling Xiao heard that he looked at her and asked, "At night? So there was nothing unusual about Mother Fang before?"

Hongyu said: "I have worked hard for several days, and I have accumulated a lot."

Speaking of this, her voice lowered a little, and she felt a little indescribably sad.

"I didn't pay attention to what my mother was doing at all." She whispered.

Ling Xiao nodded, these days are the autumn harvest season.

The villagers are naturally very hard.

How did Nanny Fang die?
Could it be that he was exhausted?possible.

Following the past, I found that Nanny Fang had become very old.

White hair, dark and rough skin, and a thin body.

Ah!Even so, Ling Xiao's demeanor did not waver at all.

She found that there were many marks on Nanny Fang's hands, and calluses appeared on her once pampered hands.

Sure enough, fatigue would make her age rapidly, and of course she wanted to see if there was any injured part of her.

After finally confirming that there was no reason for being killed, Nanny Fang could finally be buried, and Hongyu wept loudly at the funeral.

She knew what her mother had done, and she also knew that everything her mother had done was for her, and she could only cry a lot in the end.

After these years of life, she has been a little confused about whether she was really alive in the past?Still an illusory dream.

What she thinks about now is no longer to be someone's favorite pet, because although life is hard, she still knows more, only to realize that what she and her mother think is too simple. It can be survived, but more is not survived.

Even if their original plan was successful, marrying a scholar or something, there is never a shortage of men who are kind to him after they are rich and honored.
