Chapter 850 They Called Her

Wu Ershun's family lives in a village near the county seat of Tao County.

In the past, the scouts from the Northern Liao Dynasty kept attacking and harassing them, and the northern Xinjiang was immediately expelled.The two sides are like cats catching mice and you come and go, and it is the common people who suffer.

Once they heard that the Beiliao people were coming, the surrounding villages in Tao County had to run away.

"Last year was tough, but this year is much better."

In the early morning, while eating breakfast, Wu Ershun nagged his eldest son, 19-year-old Wu Da.

Wu Da said: "The days were better back then!"

Wu Ershun sighed, "Then I can't go back until the good days. I just hope that your elder sister is still alive. Hey! As long as I can see you once, I will be satisfied."

The other children hurried to eat while they were talking.

The family is going to help dig ditches these days.For physical work, you need to eat more, so the meals you cook are not bad.

The old wife said: "That side is also ruthless. If you have the ability, you will fight with the Northern Xinjiang Army and Yang Gou. What's the matter if you harass us!"

"Ahem! What are you talking about?" Wu Ershun said with a straight face.

The old wife muttered, "Okay, okay, it's Deputy Envoy Yang."

Wu Da said: "Don't worry, Madam, they dare not come now."

Wu Ershun narrowed his eyes, "That's right! Since the deputy envoy took control of northern Xinjiang, they didn't dare to come. Go up
This time, he also arrested a duke of the state, good fellow, who looked like a woman, said that when he saw the deputy envoy, he knelt down and shouted for mercy. "

Seeing his youngest son stealing away the only piece of meat from his eldest son's bowl, he gave him a glare, and gave the piece of meat from his own bowl to his eldest son, "Eat quickly, and dig a ditch after eating. Anyway It’s been a year of hard work, and there’s no end to it.”

"Aye, eat it!"

Wu Da was greedy for meat, but he still took the meat back.

"The old man has a bad stomach, and I have diarrhea after eating."

The father and son gave way, but the younger son looked at the remaining half of the meat, blushed a little, and took it back.

"You eat it."

Wu Da still gave it to him, and finally shared the piece of meat with his father.

After breakfast, Wu Ershun took Wu Da and set off with a hoe on his shoulder.

"In the past! This is the favorite place for the scouts over there. The weather is good and you can see Taoxian County."

Wu Ershun pointed to the endless crops and said comfortably: "Now this is our field."

"Aye, the crops are wilting."

Wu Da looked at Maizi, whose head was drooping due to the drought, and felt distressed.

"Hey! This is God's test for us, and it will be a good day if we get through it."

"Can't we go?"

"I can't make it through! Be a refugee. The whole family is wandering around with their only possessions. Go wherever you have money, go begging, and see if the government will show kindness and give you porridge."

"Then I won't be able to survive a day."

"Young people are naturally like this. When you get married, have a wife and children, you will know that as long as you can live, you are a blessing from heaven.

As long as there is life, there is hope.

Isn't this man just a life of hope?

Even if it's fake, you have to give yourself something to look forward to, this day!It just survived. "

"Ok!"

Across the field, ahead, dozens of farmers have arrived and are digging ditches.

"Wu Ershun!"

An old farmer scolded: "Mother, your family is lazy today!"

Wu Ershun laughed and said, "My family works quickly, unlike you who steal and play tricks."

A lot of laughing and scolding is a warm-up, and then I start working.

After working for half an hour, Xu Dazhu took a rest with his hoe, "Aye, if this continues, the crops will be finished before the water comes."

"Yes!"

Wu Ershun wiped off the sweat from his forehead, thumped his back with his backhand, looked up at the sky, "Look, it's another sunny day, it's not going to work like this!"

A few old farmers were also muttering there.

"This year, I'm afraid it will be sad."

"Yes!"

"Some people say that this is... the wrath of the sky caused by the deputy envoy."

"Fart your mother! Without a deputy envoy, where did this field come from?"

"The old man didn't say yes, someone else said it."

"fart!"

Everyone scolded, but there was more shadow in their hearts.

"The sky is angry." Wu Da muttered, "God is angry, no matter how much we toss about it, there is nothing we can do."

"Shut up!" Wu Ershun said anxiously, "Just work."

At this time, God's will is the best tool.Some people use God's will to flatter themselves, while others use God's will to beat their opponents.

The supreme God has become a tool of those people.

Da da da!
The sound of hoofs came.

Wu Da raised his head, "Aye, it's cavalry!"

More than a thousand cavalry came along the official road.

"What are they doing here?"

Wu Ershun said puzzledly.

"Maybe he was passing by, go to the sentry!"

These cavalry stopped on the official road and dismounted immediately.

Everyone was carrying things and came trotting.

"This is……"

Everyone was a little confused.

Wu Da had good eyes, "Aye, they are carrying hoes and shovels!"

A general ran over with someone, pointed to the ditch, "Do it!"

Thousands of soldiers rushed over and squeezed out these farmers without any explanation.

These are fierce soldiers full of energy, and they are good at work before joining the army. Once they get started, they seem to be flying fast.

Wu Ershun was pushed to the side, and looked at each other with several old farmers.

"Is this here to help us work?"

"Ask!"

Wu Ershun was literate and was elected for questioning.

He dawdled over, found the general, cupped his hands and said, "Master Jun."

The general straightened up, "Don't call me Jun Ye, you can call me Langjun."

"Lang Jun, dare to ask if this is..."

The general said: "From the beginning of the drought, the deputy envoy sent us to various places to help farmers dig canals to divert water.

According to the order of the deputy envoy, we went from far to near, no, today is our turn here.

Don't worry, the deputy envoy said, even if God sends down thunder, we will carry it together. "

Wu Ershun only felt that the big stone in his heart fell down at once, and he sniffed, "Is it really a punishment from God?"

The general chuckled, "What kind of punishment from God? The deputy envoy said that this is climate change, do you understand?
Climate change is justified, that is, there are rules, and it does not change because of people.

It is agreed that there will be little rain this year, even if there is no one in our Tao County, it will still be rainless. "

"That's right! The old man said that the deputy envoy is so wise and mighty, how could God punish him?"

Wu Ershun was content to go back, and when he thought of something, he said: "Everyone has worked hard, let's get some food..."

"No, we brought our own."

The general said: "It's not easy."

Wu Ershun went back and told everyone.

"Can you watch? Let's do it together!"

In the afternoon, when the ditch was dug close to the official road, Wu Ershun asked Wu Da to run to the river to ask someone to open the hole.

Da da da!
More than ten riders came from the north.

Everyone was wearing a bamboo hat, reining in their horses and looking at this side.

"Open!"

Wu Da ran wildly in this direction, looking back while running.

The clear river water rushed into the ditch, rolled up the mud, and immediately became turbid.

The river was flowing slowly, Wu Da ran for a while, then stopped, waited for the water to flow to his side, and continued to run.

"coming!"

The river water moistened the dry fields, and the cracked holes devoured the water hungrily.

"coming!"

The river flowed along the ditches all the way to the place close to the official road, and the water level was gradually rising.

"Alive!"

Wu Ershun jumped up.

The ten or so riders were silent for a long time, and someone said coldly:
"Yang Gou, good trick!"

After the ditch was dug, Wu Ershun was in a good mood, and said that he had brought two catties of wine home to celebrate.

Farmers are busy all year round, and this is the only joy they have.

Going home first, he put away the hoe and the wine gourd. Wu Ershun asked his wife not to make vegetables, and he bought them from the city.

"It costs a lot!" The wife was dissatisfied.

"There is so much land reclamation this year, at first I thought the income would be reduced. Once the canal is opened, it will definitely be a good harvest this year. I can earn a lot of money and give the children a good meal."

He took his son all the way into the city, looking east and west.

"Hey! Dalang, last time this place was selling cloth, how come it has become a place selling jewelry."

Wu Da said: "Aye, do you want to buy jewelry for A Niang?"

Wu Ershun leaned over, peeked inside for a few moments, wanted to go in, looked down at his coarse clothes, and smiled, "When I have saved enough money, I will marry you first, then your brother and your sister's dowry ...I will buy jewelry for your aunt after I figure out what you guys are doing."

Wu Da looked forward to it, and thought of the girl in the village.

Looking back, I will ask her, if she is interested in me, I will invite a matchmaker to make a kiss.

Get married and have children, just like Aye, become the pillar of a family.

Outside the jewelry store, two gorgeously dressed men were talking.

"That Yang dog pissed off Chang'an, that's the emperor! Look, God is going to be angry now."

"That traitor, die a terrible death!"

Wu Ershun looked sideways slowly.

This kind of nobleman, when the common people met them in the past, they would walk against the base of the wall, not daring to approach them, not even daring to take a second look.

Otherwise, being beaten would be for nothing.

This kind of fear comes from the suppression of generations. The nobles are powerful and powerful, and they belong to the same family as the government.Offending them is offending the government.

In the eyes of the common people, the upper class and the government are actually one family. As much as they fear the government, they fear these nobles as much.

But when the suppression reaches the extreme, the rebound will be extremely strong.

Wu Ershun blushed, "Nonsense!"

Wu Da was stunned, "Aye!"

The two men were taken aback, seeing that Wu Ershun's shoes and legs were covered in mud, his skin was dark, and his hands and feet were rough, so they knew he was an old farmer.

"Slutty dog ​​slave!" A man scolded, "Get lost!"

In the past, when Wu Ershun heard this, he would definitely run away.

But today he stiffened his neck and said: "The deputy envoy is caring and considerate to us, why should he be called a traitor?"

"This old dog, let him go on talking, and we're going to keep an eye on Yang Gou."

"Get rid of him!"

A man waved, "Get out!"

Several attendants came over and pushed Wu Ershun and his son.

Wu Ershun couldn't help cursing: "You wait for a wolf!"

There was a stern look in the eyes of a man, "Yeah, I'll kill you!"

Wu Ershun scolded: "If you kill this old man, you have to say that you are a traitor, and you deserve to die if you wait!"

There was more resentment in the man's eyes, "Hit!"

Wu Ershun and his son fought with several followers, it started quickly and ended very quickly.

The father and son are strong, but they are not the opponents of these well-trained guards.

After a severe beating, the two men called the woman out of the jewelry store and hurried away.

Later, the sergeant patrolling the city came after receiving the report.

"Why fight?"

Wu Ershun tried hard to open his swollen eyes, "Those people... scolded, scolded the deputy envoy!"

The sergeant was taken aback, "Who?"

"It's two nobles."

The sergeant said: "I don't think there is anything wrong, let's go back!"

"Oh!"

Wu Ershun and his son helped each other up.

"Cough cough!"

A man came over, "What did those two gentlemen say?"

Wu Ershun said: "They scolded the deputy envoy, saying that the deputy envoy had offended Chang'an. No, God sent down a punishment, and said that the deputy envoy was a traitor, damn it."

The sergeant squinted at the man, "Where is it?"

The man took out a sign, and the sergeant glanced at it, "Jinyiwei?"

"You dereliction of duty." The man pointed at the sergeant, "Go back and receive the punishment yourself."

The sergeant looked miserable, "The villain just thinks that one more thing is worse than one less thing."

"Don't dare to offend people, then don't do this."

The man took Wu Ershun and his son to Jin Yiwei's yamen.

Immediately reported to He Lianyan.

"Recently, ditches are being repaired everywhere, and those tyrants are not selling food. They wanted to watch the excitement, but now they are flustered. In anger, they insulted the gentleman, damn it!"

A stern look flashed in He Lianyan's eyes, "Wait for me to tell my husband."

Yang Xuan talked to Nan He about the military affairs in the duty room.

"Lang Jun."

He Lianyan came, and Nan He resigned.

"What's the matter?"

Yang Xuan took a sip of tea.

"Two peasants went to the city today, and when they heard two men insulting your lord, they reasoned spontaneously and were severely beaten." He Lianyan said: "Those two were a little too excited."

Even if ordinary people heard nobles insulting Yang Xuan, they would just yell and scold at most, but Wu Ershun and his son "will not retreat in a deadly battle", which made Helianyan suspicious.

Yang Xuan's face sank immediately, "No matter what else, take it."

Jin Yiwei mobilized, and the two men were arrested and taken to the Jiedu Ambassador's Mansion as soon as they arrived home.

"Confiscated the house and hung it at the city gate."

Yang Xuan hit hard.

Immediately, he went to visit Wu Ershun and his son.

"A deputy envoy?"

Wu Ershun was so excited that he wanted to kneel down.

"Don't kneel!"

Yang Xuan felt that the emotions of the father and son were not right, they were a little too excited, and also a little scared.

Lin Feibao walked to his side calmly.

He Lianyan winked, while Jielong pressed the handle of the knife and stared at Wu Ershun and his son.

Just wait for an order and start.

Wu Ershun didn't notice the crisis, so he stood up and said, "Without the deputy envoy, there would be no good life for the villain's family! If the deputy envoy says a word, the villain is willing to go through fire and water, and he will do whatever he wants."

this.

its not right!
Yang Xuan felt that there was some flattery in these words.

But he didn't notice the crisis, so he said: "He'er prepared a thousand coins, and brought them back."

Anyway, Wu Ershun and his son were beaten severely for his reputation, and a reward is a must.

"Yes!"

Jiang He'er agreed, and was going to go back to get the money.

The money can only come from the Yang family.

Wu Ershun looked puzzled, "I don't want money anymore. The villain just wants...a merciless favor."

"Tell me." Yang Xuan knew that the reason for the weirdness of the father and son was presumably due to this ruthless invitation.

There was sweat on Wu Ershun's forehead, and his lips squirmed, "Old man...the villain wants to see my daughter."

"Daughter?" Yang Xuan was stunned, "Who is your daughter?"

"Wu Luo."

Wu Ershun raised his head, looking expectant, "They call her...the widow Luo."
