Chapter 616 Pleading

"He is the eldest son and grandson, and he is destined to walk the path I have walked." Everyone has to bear responsibility in life. If he is just a fisherman, then Yubao will walk the same path as him. Someone must inherit the ancestral business yes, isn't it?
Opening her mouth, Yun Shu wanted to say something, but thinking about how much the people here value the eldest son and grandson, she knew that even if she disagreed, it was impossible. Perhaps in the eyes of others, she stopped Yubao and ruined him The future of - everything, let's wait until the matter here is resolved.

"Actually speaking, it's not that I hate the capital. It's good to have you and the child here, but when I think of those intrigues, I just go berserk." Although she is the prime minister's daughter, the queen's sister, and even the princess of the county, She also has no powerful rights, and she is not as tough as the eldest princess, so it is a common thing to be squeezed by others, and it is also mixed with bloodless calculations, which makes it difficult for her to parry.

Faced with those times, she would rather endure drought and poverty here.

"I know," Rao Mingxu smiled and said softly.

Looking at his smiling eyes, Yun Shu was depressed, "You know everything I say, can you tell me what you don't know?"

"I don't know about farming!"

With this serious answer, Yun Shu didn't know whether to laugh or get angry. Isn't this all day long?
"Go and worry about your intrigue, and don't worry about farming." If she really obeyed his orders, she would be afraid of accidents.

"Hehe, it's said that if a husband and wife are of the same heart, their benefits can cut through gold. You are so good, you don't want me to help you at all,"

A big question mark appeared on Yun Shu's forehead, and he replied foolishly, "Aren't brothers united?" Did she learn it wrong?

He hugged her with a smirk, "I don't want to treat you as a brother,"

"What's the matter?" Yun Shu, who was a little dizzy, felt that the reason why she was so stupid today was because she was hurt by Rao Mingxu's tenderness. "Axu, when you get here, it's no better than the capital. You have to be more careful, you know? I also hope that you will take me back to see the children." There is no one left in their family.

"I know," for the sake of you and the child, I am also reluctant to have an accident.

The sunset glow in Yangjia Village is actually not pretty at all, not to mention the yellow sand in the distance, even if it is nearby, those mountainous lands that have been reclaimed for a long time have been abandoned for various reasons, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.The color of the weeds struggling to survive the drought is not pure green, and the almost desperate color makes people even more disheartened.

This situation made Yun Shu know that it was much more difficult than he imagined, and it was quite difficult to implement everything.

Her original plan was to plant drought-tolerant crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and peppers here first, and then slowly develop them to fill everyone's stomachs first.

However, even drought-tolerant crops need water. If there is no drop of water, all my plans will be in vain.

It seems that she still needs to think about it carefully to see if she can find a source of water.

"Tomorrow I'll go to the city to buy some food and come back." He didn't care about the people of the Yang family, but about Yun Shu's health, especially in such a harsh environment, if he got sick, it would be really bad.

As for his indifference, he has seen too many lives and deaths on the battlefield, and he knows that some things are irresistible. He can save a few people, but he cannot save everyone here, so sympathy is sometimes not necessarily a good thing .

"Okay," Yun Shu is not hypocritical when it comes to this kind of thing, "but you have to be careful when you come back. Even Sister-in-law Yang is hiding it so that no one will find out. If the villagers know that we can buy food, say Maybe you will have some evil intentions, even if you are here, the Yang family is full of old and young women and children, if something happens, we can't be incapable of protecting you." She didn't want to cause big trouble without doing anything .

"I know. By the way, I'll go to Zeyang County to have a look," the emperor specially named him, and there was always his deep meaning.

"Well, be careful on the road,"

After the two discussed it, they rested for one night on the kang of the Yang family. Fortunately, neither of them was hypocritical, otherwise, they really couldn't sleep well that night.

The next day, Yun Shu sent Rao Mingxu away.

"What did Brother Rao do? It's so early in the morning, it's only dawn, are you not used to sleeping!?" When Sister-in-law Yang got up, she saw Yun Shu watching the man on horseback leave, she was puzzled asked.

Yun Shu looked back at her and said, "No, he had something to go to the city and wanted to go back early, that's why he got up so early."

"Oh, that's it." Sister-in-law Yang didn't doubt anything, and after answering, she was going to wake up the two children so that they could get some food for the family.

Yun Shu hadn't finished eating the food they gave, they ate a big bowl of water mixed with half a white flour steamed bun, saving and saving.

"Sister-in-law, is there no water near the village? How did you farm the land before?" Yun Shu asked suspiciously when he stopped Sister-in-law Yang who was about to enter the door.

If there is no water source, no matter how drought-tolerant things cannot be grown, then it will be impossible for her to complete the task entrusted by the emperor.

Sister-in-law Yang was a little surprised at what she said, and after thinking for a while, she said, "There used to be water." She pointed in one direction and said, "There was water on the mountain over there, but I don't know what happened, but suddenly it disappeared. , so everyone’s land can’t be planted anymore, “It’s useless to plant it, and without water, nothing can be done.

Looking in the direction of the finger, I saw that there was the only green mountain over there, and I was slightly moved: "Can someone take me to the mountain to see?"

"There's nothing on the mountain, so what's there to see?" Sister-in-law Yang didn't think so, "When the water stopped before, the village chief took people up there, but they couldn't find anything, and no one went up after that."

"I'll go and have a look. If you're busy, I'll ask Zhuzi to take me there." The children in the country are tough, and it's not a problem to walk a mountain road, so she said so.

"Okay, let Zhuzi take you there, that child is really looking forward to it," Aunt Yang didn't refuse, instead she went into the room and called Zhuzi to get him up.

Because Zhuzi had to walk the mountain road, he ate half an extra steamed bun. The stones he saw were so hungry that Yun Shu felt very sad.

To them, white flour steamed buns are a delicacy in the world, but to rich people, they don’t like to eat them the least. Maybe they waste more than they eat, but this kind of comparison exists in every place, which makes people helpless.

"Aunt Yun, there is nothing on this mountain, just a few trees. It's not fun at all." The children in the country are left alone, and they go wherever they see fun, so they are quite familiar with the surrounding environment.

Yun Shu, who felt that he was not exercising a little, walked up the pillar a little out of breath, and then used his energy to answer his words, "Auntie went up the mountain not to play, but to see where I can find water."

"Water? How is it possible?" Zhuzi exclaimed, "There is not a single drop of water on this mountain, how could it be found?"

Yun Shu didn't answer. She knew that there used to be a water source on the mountain, but it changed for some reason, so she had to go up and have a look to find out. For the rest, it's meaningless to talk too much.

The mountains looked quite close, and it took Yun Shu a lot of time to stop and go.

"It's the coolest here. We used to like to come here to play when it was hot." After Zhuzi arrived on the mountain, he ran happily. He didn't feel tired going up the mountain at all. Yun Shu looked envious.

There are a few lush trees on the mountain, which have been around for many years. There are also wild grasses around, some are flourishing, and some are dying. Even if it is such a scenery, compared with the long yellow sand below, it is already a paradise on earth. .

Seeing the well-growing vegetation, Yun Shu concluded that there was a source of water here, otherwise, these things would not grow so well, at least they would wither.It's just that she is not familiar with anything here, and it is not easy to find a source of water. It seems that she needs to find someone who is familiar with this place.

"Wild vegetables, there are wild vegetables!" Zhu Zi ran wildly, and when he saw something, he shouted excitedly, which caught Yun Shu's attention.She walked over and saw a few tiny but tender fern wild vegetables, she couldn't help but smiled and said: "This is a good thing, after you pick it back, let your mother mix it with white flour steamed buns to make a pot of wild vegetable soup. I can get my fill,"

For them, being able to eat is the best.

The people here are not like the people in the south of the Yangtze River. When they are hungry, they go up to the mountains to find something to eat. The mountains here are so clear that they can hardly hide any good things, so they keep these freshly grown wild vegetables.

As soon as he heard that there was something to eat, and it was delicious, Zhu Zi swallowed hard, and then diligently looked for the wild vegetables that had just grown, while Yun Shu stretched out his hand to hold the soil on the ground and looked at it, wanting to know Is there a lot of moisture in it?

There are all kinds of wild vegetables that grow, not just one kind, Yun Shu sees that all of them are not poisonous, so she doesn't care.

Originally, I didn't expect to pick anything when I went up the mountain, but I didn't bring anything with me. Zhu Zi was also a glutton, so he took off his coat for the wild vegetables. OK

There are quite a lot of wild vegetables picked, but they are not burned. Zhuzi is a smart and exciting child. Without Yun Shu's reminder, he rolled up his clothes and hid them carefully, which made him feel very sad.

A little bit of wild vegetables made a young child spend so much thought, which shows how barren this life is.

Yun Shu and the others went out early, and after walking around the mountain, the villagers in the village were busy with their own work, and there were not many people wandering in the village—according to the words of a hungry stomach, even walking requires strength, it is better to lie down. Well done.

"Aunt Yun, take the wild vegetables back to my mother, and I'll go play," Zhu Zi said while seeing a child blocking him, looking at Yun Shu with pleading eyes.
