Spring Girl's Notes

Chapter 361 Blizzard

When they arrived in the countryside, Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi still lived in the Gu family's ancestral house.

The medicines in the countryside were all brought from Gu's family last time, and they haven't been used up yet, so they are complete.

Lin Yi is also good at trauma.

Zhu Zhongjun's wound was suppressed when he arrived in the countryside, and he no longer had a fever, and he got better day by day.

By the first ten days of the winter month, they had already lived in the countryside for half a month.

A night of bitter cold wind whizzed by, almost overturning the thatched cottage where Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi lived.On the second day, the wind and cold stopped, and the snow fell.

The goose feather snow was crystal clear, and soon covered the courtyard, and it was covered with white snow everywhere.

The thatched cottages of Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi leaked snow, so they both moved to live in the Gu family's ancestral house, with Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun as companions.

It snowed heavily all morning, with no thought of stopping, roof ridges and treetops were dyed white.

Unable to go out, the eldest brother proposed to boil a pot of hot wine, and several people talked together.

Zhu Zhongjun couldn't drink, so he sat on the sidelines and listened.

Qiu Yu and Konoha served beside her.

"...When you left the pavilion, I didn't even go to see the big gift on the day you left the pavilion. It's a pity when I think about it." Gu Chenyi, the eldest brother, drank a cup of hot wine, and the chatter began, "If our family is not in the period of filial piety, you go to Fenghuang. I am also carrying the sedan chair."

Gu Jin smiled.

"Is there anything interesting in Beijing?" Gu Chenzhi asked Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi couldn't think of anything interesting.

She then talked about An Nanguo's victory and the upcoming return of the rebel army: "The emperor is very happy. Since he took the throne, he has used troops several times, and almost never won a big victory. This time, it is the first big victory. The emperor will definitely Reward Jiang Liang..."

Jiang Liang was the commander-in-chief of the Annan Guoping Rebellion Army.

"My lord also made great efforts." Gu Chenzhi said with a smile, "Didn't Luzhou send out [-] elite soldiers and food?"

Seeing that the topic came to him, Zhu Zhongjun had no choice but to interject and said with a smile: "My fief is also rewarded by the court, and the guards are also allowed by the court. After all, they all belong to the emperor's brother. I just borrow flowers to present Buddha. It's not worth mentioning."

The emperor will be very happy with this victory.

For his first victory since he ascended the throne, the credit must go to the emperor.Anyone who wants to share credit with him is just asking for trouble, and will annoy the emperor.

Afterwards, when the emperor's enthusiasm subsided, Zhu Zhongjun paid people and money again.There is a chance to be rewarded.

Gu Chenzhi didn't think about Zhu Zhongjun's level, but felt that Zhu Zhongjun didn't want to talk more, so he stopped talking with a smile.

The scene is a bit cold.

Lin Yi helped to smooth things over: "Jiang Liang, Marquis of Yuanping, is indeed capable. There are many rivers and dangerous terrain in Annan Kingdom. I heard that they have never suffered a loss in war. They were able to take down the Annan rebels so quickly. Yuanpinghou deserves a lot of credit. without….."

"That's right." Gu Jinzhi smiled, "After this time, An Nanguo should be the chief secretary and no longer a subordinate country, right?"

Lin Yi and Gu Chenzhi were taken aback by these words.

Zhu Zhongjun smiled.

Gu Jinzhi knew the history.

"It's unlikely..." Gu Chenzhi said, "The Chen family of Annan Kingdom has always been loyal. This rebellion was also due to the usurpation of the country by a traitor, so it wouldn't just take away the throne of the Chen family and turn Annan into the chief secretary, right? If the road is far away, it will be more laborious to govern. It is better to hand it over to the Chen family."

Gu Jinzhi also felt that what the elder brother said was reasonable.

But that's how it's written in history.

What is the specific reason, who knows?

Is it because the Chen family has no descendants?

Isn't there another Chen Yuchao?

It's been too long.Gu Jinzhi almost forgot about Chen Yuchao.At the beginning, he concealed his identity and almost brought disaster to the Gu family. Gu Jinzhi felt a little bit grudge against him and didn't consider him a friend.

I haven't seen him for several years, and his appearance is blurred.

"I said it casually." Gu Jinzhi smiled and agreed with the elder brother's words, "Elder brother is right. What do I know as a little girl?"

Lin Yi smiled and glanced at Gu Jinzhi.

A few people talked about the government for a while, and the eldest brother asked about the family members.

Although he asked many times.

Gu Jinzhi took the trouble and told his eldest brother about the family affairs again.

They were talking around the fire inside, and there was a knock on the door outside.

The guard went to open the door and told the little girl on the second door, who then told Haitang.

Haitang came in to report back to Gu Jinzhi.

Seeing that Gu Jinzhi and the others were talking, she didn't dare to step forward and stopped.

Gu Jinzhi saw her from the corner of his eye, got up, went to the door and asked her, "What's the matter?"

"The snow was getting deeper and deeper, and the roof of Li's house collapsed. Li Zhong's family had no relatives in the village, and the family was too busy to go there for a while. Li Zhong asked at the door if he could You can't go outside our house for a night, and move out when the house is repaired tomorrow..." Haitang said.

Aunt Li, the wife of Li Zhong next door, is a very kind woman.

In the first half of the year, Gu Jinzhi stayed here for a while, and Aunt Li often sent Gu Jinzhi some game and fresh vegetables.

She also saw Gu Jinzhi's kindness, so she dared to ask rashly.

Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi heard the voices of Haitang and Gu Jinzhi, and they both asked: "What's the matter, is there someone seeking a doctor?"

Gu Jinzhi walked inside, and said with a smile, "No. The house of Li Zhong's family next door was crushed by the snow, and asked if we could borrow our wing room outside for a night."

Gu Chenzhi glanced at Gu Jinzhi.

He waited for Gu Jinzhi to make the decision.

Gu Jinzhi turned to Haitang and said, "Find out my cloak and clogs, and we'll go out together. I used to live here, and Aunt Li treated me very well. I'll go and see."

Haitang said yes, and turned around to look for clothes and clogs.

The snow outside is still falling, rolling down like rubbing cotton wool.

The maid, Qiuyu, held an umbrella, and Haitang supported Gu Jinzhi, and went to the outer courtyard.

The snow was almost submerged up to the ankles.

In such a short while, there has been such a heavy snowfall.

At the gate, stood two servants and one guard.Li Zhong was at the door, wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat, a little stiff from the cold, anxiously waiting for news.

Seeing Gu Jinzhi coming out, Li Zhong hurriedly knelt down to salute her.

Gu Jinzhi said to Li Zhong: "Has your house collapsed? Is anyone injured?"

Li Zhong stood up, not caring about patting the snow on his knees.He replied: "It's all collapsed, no one smashed it..."

"It's good that people are fine. There are about ten wing rooms in this outer courtyard. I asked someone to clean up three of them. Your family will come over and bring your valuables. When the snow stops, the house will be repaired slowly. There is no rush. " Gu Jin said.

Li Zhong knelt down and kowtowed again.

Gu Jinzhi came out to speak in person, and Li Zhong was flattered.

He went back and told Aunt Li.

Aunt Li was naturally very happy.

Gu Jinzhi also called the servants to help them move.

Li's quilts and thick clothes were brought over.the rest.All stay in the broken house.

Li Zhong and Aunt Li took their eldest son, daughter-in-law and the remaining three children to the Gu family's ancestral house.

After settling down, Aunt Li brought his wife and daughters in and kowtowed to Gu Jinzhi to thank him.

"It's nothing. Neighbors should help each other." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, "You can stay at ease. We'll talk about it when the snow stops."

Aunt Li thanked her again.

She explained to Gu Jinzhi: "The house should have been repaired a long time ago. The grain was sold in autumn, and I had some spare money, so I planned to repair the house. It rained in the early years, and the house collapsed several times. We were also afraid of snowstorms in winter. There is no place to live. It is planned to be overhauled.

Only in October, the old Chen's daughter-in-law in Xitou.Tell our second boy a daughter, and we plan to meet our relatives next spring.Acknowledging relatives is a big deal, you can't tell your in-laws that we don't respect you if you don't have some spare money on hand..."

Farmers don't have much money left, and it's even more important for their children to marry a daughter-in-law.

The second son of Li Zhong's family works in a silver jewelry shop in the city, and he is fifteen this year.

Li's family is well off, and Li Zhong's second son is smart and hardworking.There is no one in Zhuangzi who does not boast.As soon as they are old, someone will come to say goodbye.

Li Zhong and his wife saved.The old house has been around for decades, and he is not willing to build a new house. He just wants to make an agreement on the marriage for the children first, and then make future plans.

Who would have thought that the house would collapse like this.

"Where it's difficult, just ask." Gu Jinzhi said, "It's not too late to return it to me when the harvest is ready next year."

Aunt Li hurriedly thanked her, but she declined again and again: "Who dares to ask for your kindness? The family has enough money, and we can do as many things as we want. You are willing to lend us a place to stay, it is already a great kindness..."

Gu Jinzhi persisted, but Aunt Li refused firmly.

The peasant family has the backbone of the peasant family, so Gu Jinzhi didn't say anything more.

She just told Aunt Li's family to live in peace.

Unexpectedly, at dinner time, Aunt Li went to handle the spoon in person and cooked a sumptuous meal for Gu Jinzhi and others.

Even Zhu Zhongjun praised: "No one would dislike Aunt Li's skills and go to a rich family in the city to be a cook."

Aunt Li was slightly taken aback.

She didn't know whether Zhu Zhongjun praised her sincerely, or if he was being polite and perfunctory, so there was some uncertainty in his eyes.

Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi also praised it one after another, Gu Jinzhi also praised it once, and Aunt Li believed it.

She rolled her eyes: Farming in the countryside is undoubtedly an ancestral inheritance, and she is reluctant to discard it.It's a pity that the land tax is too heavy, and the annual harvest is barely enough to make ends meet. If I can go to the city to do things, at least it will be better than at home.

It's just that no one recommends her, and I'm afraid that the rich and powerful will not like Aunt Li, a shabby country old woman.

Her eyes dimmed slightly, no longer wishful thinking.

After eating, Aunt Li served tea and water.

Gu Jinzhi said several times that it was unnecessary, but she still insisted.

She knew that Gu Jinzhi would not ask for her money if she lived here, and she was a loyal person, so she had to do something to feel at ease, so Gu Jinzhi stopped trying to persuade her.

Gu Jinzhi and the four of them ate and continued talking.

Aunt Li was serving at the side, looking pretty.

"This is probably the last winter here." Gu Chenzhi sighed, "There was also a blizzard last year, but it wasn't so early..."

Aunt Li heard the voice, and interrupted abruptly: "Is the young master going back to the city?"

"Yes, next March." Gu Chenzhi replied with a smile.

"Is Mr. Lin leaving too?" Aunt Li asked again.

Lin Yi smiled and nodded: "I'm going too..."

Aunt Li looked regretful: "Oh, from now on, there won't be a doctor for tens of miles around. If you get sick suddenly, it will be a disaster..."

Gu Chenzhi and Lin Yi were slightly surprised.

"Isn't there a Doctor Ling in the Lingjiazhuang next door?" Gu Chenzhi asked, "It's only two or three miles away."

"You still don't know?" Aunt Li said with a sad face, "He's dead."

After a pause, Aunt Li added, "I misunderstood the disease and was beaten to death."
