I don't want to fight anymore

Chapter 362 Peace of Mind
How can Chinese New Year be without firecrackers?Although not as brilliant and dazzling as modern fireworks, in the atmosphere of the New Year, a sound can make people happy.

What the boy is most looking forward to is to set off firecrackers. This year he is more courageous, covering his ears with one hand, holding a fire stick in the other, withdrawing his body to light firecrackers, then throwing the fire stick and running towards Yu Zhi.He looked up at her, jumping happily, "Mother, mother."

In his eyes, his mother is his whole world, wherever his mother is, he is also there, and he can laugh and shout happily.

Children are so easily satisfied.

Yu Zhi can't, she is an adult, and she has lived three lifetimes, she has her own worries.Amidst the sound of firecrackers, she couldn't help being a little dazed.

Whenever the holiday season, think twice.

This is not false at all, this is Yu Zhi's seventh year in the Daqing Dynasty, the previous life and the previous life... Let alone the previous life in the cultivation world, there is no blood relative.In Qingyunzong, there are no friends who are particularly close, and they will not be classmates or colleagues.

But in her previous life... Yu Zhi was always reluctant to think about how sad her parents should be when she passed away suddenly and the white-haired man gave away the black-haired man.Time can heal wounds, but can the pain of losing a daughter be healed easily?

It's the Chinese New Year, and the whole family is reunited, but her family is missing her forever. At the moment when the family should be harmonious, the wounds of parents are torn open again.Yu Zhi could even imagine the scene where her parents were crying while looking at her photo.

sad!

There is also the father who stayed in the capital all his life, he treated her very well, she took up the body of his daughter, and she was willing to be kind and filial.Perhaps it was due to her blood relationship, she did have a natural admiration for her father in this life.

Dad is only her daughter, she should have taken care of him, but now she is far away, leaving dad alone in the capital, isn't it too unfilial?
Still sad!

Wen Jiuxiao, who was accompanying the boy to set off the firecrackers, turned his head and saw the expression on Yu Zhi's face, his whole heart twitched.

There was a smile on her face, but Wen Jiuxiao felt that she was full of sadness, her eyes were out of focus, and fell on the vast night sky, as if she was about to disappear in the next moment.

A great panic seized him, Wen Jiuxiao's heart hurt so much that he could hardly breathe, he tore off a firecracker and lit it and threw it towards Yu Zhi's feet.

The sudden noise startled Yu Zhi and pulled her out of her contemplation.As soon as she turned her head, she saw Wen Jiuxiao raising her eyebrows at her, holding a lit firecracker in her hand and was about to throw it over...

Yu Zhi was immediately furious, "Master Wen, you really don't want to get better!" He rushed forward aggressively.

One chased, the other hid, and even dragged the cub into the battlefield. The two adults, whose combined age is over half a hundred, are as immature as children at this moment.

It wasn't until Yu Zhi was out of breath with exhaustion, until Wen Jiuxiao hugged Yu Zhi's slender waist and saw her bright eyes, that his heart settled down.

The county government is celebrating the lively New Year, and the four families of Zhang Yan, Ma and Song have had a rough time this year, because they finally received the news from their own people who were stationed in the quarry.

The news was only received at noon on New Year's Eve... Well, Wen Jiuxiao admitted that he did it on purpose.He told the guards to take those stewards seriously and didn't relax until New Year's Eve.

How can he be worthy of the money he paid to the quarry if he stretches his hands so long and doesn't cause them some trouble?

Yes, Wen Jiuxiao is such a narrow-minded person.

The Patriarch of the Song family frowned, "What is the magistrate doing?"

His most beloved son, Song Lixian, who passed the examination as a scholar at a young age, frowned like his father, "Father, do you think the county magistrate knows that our family has a hand in it?"

"Impossible? He's a new official, how does he know what's going on in our Shanyun County?"

"That's good?" Song Lixian breathed a sigh of relief. He admired the new county magistrate very much, and was worried that the county magistrate would have a bad impression of the Song family, which in turn would have a bad impression of him.

So he couldn't help complaining, "Father, I have already said, don't get involved in such a thing, and don't get too close to those families. Our family is a scholarly family, and the poets and books are heirs. , It’s different from those of them who only have copper stink in their eyes.”

The head of the Song family felt that his son's words made sense. All the children of the Song family studied, and one of them was a scholar. Isn't that the most noble family?But he couldn't bear to admit his mistake, so he just said vaguely: "Fortunately, my son is smart."

Song Yi'an, who was sitting on the sidelines, flashed sarcasm in his lowered eyes, what a noble scholar!The second younger brother looked down on the family's livelihood, and felt that the smell of copper had tarnished his innocence as a scholar.But he didn't even think about it, where did he get what he ate and drank, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone he used for reading?And when he made friends and went on a study tour, how could he not pay 80 taels of silver?Why doesn't he dislike the smell of copper?

"Fortunately, the magistrate of the county doesn't know yet, father, this matter will stop here, and our family will stop here, as if there is no such thing." Song Lixian said.

"But the quarry is..." Patriarch Song hesitated, he was reluctant to part with the income from the quarry.

Song Lixian was not happy, "Dad, can you take a long-term view? The quarry only has three melons and two dates a year. If my son falls into the eyes of the county magistrate, I can find an official position in the county government, and I can get it near the water. With the guidance of the magistrate of the county, is it not only Zong Yaozu who is successful in his career?"

As for his son's future, Patriarch Song's heart trembled, "You are right, it's my father's intentions." The son's future is more important than anything else.

Song Yi'an couldn't help reminding, "Father, second brother, don't forget that the county magistrate has sent guards to the quarry, so how can he not know about the situation in the quarry? I don't think it's better to take chances, It's better to go to the county magistrate to plead guilty. As long as our family shows sincerity and attitude, I believe the county magistrate will give a lighter punishment."

Song Lixian stood up and accused angrily, "Brother, what do you mean? Sincerely don't want to see me well, right? I know you are jealous of my father's respect for me, but can I be blamed for my ability to read? Brother, can you stop being so selfish and a bit of a family member?" Concept? We are all the sons of the Song family, I’m fine, don’t you follow suit? You, you disappoint me so much.”

Song Yi'an blushed with anger, "I'm jealous of you? Ha, what are you kidding, where do you see that I'm jealous of you?" Isn't it because he is better at studying than himself?He really can't be jealous of him.

"If you weren't jealous of me, why did you propose to plead guilty to the magistrate? Aren't you just hoping for my bad luck?"

"I proposed to plead guilty to the county magistrate just to hope for your bad luck?" Song Yi'an didn't even know what his second brother was thinking, he didn't mean it at all, okay? "You really think you can hide this matter? You can't!"

"Why can't we hide it? The county magistrate is newly appointed, what can he know?"

"He knows everything? He's a local official. It's not easy to find out what's going on in the quarry? You just need to detain those stewards for interrogation." Song Yi'an sneered.

"But you also saw that the steward was not injured."

Song Yi'an looked at his second brother like an idiot. His second brother was stupid in reading, so he thought everyone was as stupid as him.Pian Dad still listens to him, just watch, sooner or later the Song family will be destroyed by the second brother.Suddenly, he felt disheartened, "Forget it, just pretend I didn't say it, and forget it if you don't listen." Anyway, the Song family is not his own Song family.

Patriarch Song was also very upset when the two sons quarreled, but he still chose to favor the second son and warned the eldest son, "Boss, don't hold your second brother back."

Song Yi'an was even more heartbroken.
