Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 193
"Okay! Since you said so, I'll just believe it!" Zhong Zijian sighed helplessly.Obviously, Shui Qingqian doesn't trust him very much, but this is also human nature.

In a blink of an eye, ten days passed again.During these ten days, Qiao Anguo and Daya learned how to make a five-shot crossbow and how to make tender meat powder with cassava.

Qiao Anguo and Zhong Zijian left one after another, leaving only two young and brave soldiers as Xiangdong's personal guards.On the day of bidding farewell to Qiao Anguo, it actually started drizzling, which greatly relieved the dryness in the air.

This drizzle lasted for a day and a night.

Early the next morning, Xiang Dong also bid farewell to his family and went to Luhua Town to set up a recruiting point to recruit young and strong recruits.As soon as Xiangdong left, the old patriarch and several elders also came to say goodbye: "My dear, now the drought has eased, and there is a well in Shanqian Village that has never dried up. It's time for me and the villagers to go back to the village, no good Always here to bother you!"

Da Ya looked up at the sky, although there were dark clouds passing by, the air was still hot and dry.The drizzle that fell yesterday has long been absorbed by the dry land without a trace.Rao is in this deep mountain, there are towering old trees and jubilant streams, and the grass is curly and slightly yellow.

"Grandpa patriarch, the young and strong can go back to the village, and the elderly and children can stay for a while longer!" Da Ya couldn't bear it, so she asked to keep people.

Rao Shouqin also said sincerely: "Yes, the elderly and children should stay here. As long as there is food for our family, we will never be hungry! Besides, if we stay in this mountain, at least we don't have to worry about the lack of water. "

The old patriarch thought for a while, and agreed: "Okay, I will listen to you, and I will thank you on behalf of everyone!"

"You don't have to be so polite. They are all from the village. If you can help, you should help!" Rao Shouqin smiled honestly, feeling very relieved in his heart. He has always been very happy to do something for the villagers.

There are a total of [-] young and middle-aged people who went back to the village.Da Ya decided to give everyone ten catties of bacon and barbecue, one sack of dried wild vegetables, ten catties of dried fruits, twenty catties of sweet potatoes, and ten taels of silver.

"Thank you, your family's great kindness, we will never forget it in our whole life. If we have the opportunity and ability, we will definitely repay it!" The moment the young men received the food and money, they couldn't help but With tears in his eyes, one of the young people in his twenties said emotionally.

From then on, the status of Daya's family in the hearts of the villagers has become a little heavier.After the first heavy rain, when the old patriarch led the villagers back to Shanqian Village, he solemnly extended an invitation to Daya, Shui Qingqian, and Shuisheng: "There are many wild animals in this mountain, so it's safer to live in the village. If you don't dislike it, please go to Shanqian Village to settle down!"

Da Ya has been waiting for this word for a long time.Although the days in Peach Blossom Valley were very comfortable, the children were too lonely and lacked friends of the same age.If things go on like this, it is really not a problem, and it is not conducive to the healthy growth of children.When the old patriarch mentioned this, Daya and Shuisheng agreed.

Xiangdong was very happy, and personally led the fifty elite soldiers he had just recruited to help move.Shuisheng's family went to live in the farm, Da Ya, Shui Qingqian, and Zhen Xing naturally lived in Xiangdong's house, Erya's family of four also returned to Mengjiazhuang's house after a long absence, and Pan and Rao returned to their home. old house.

Hearing that Da Ya got married and brought back a man of unknown origin, everyone reacted differently.Shui Qingqian is a talented person, personable, and very affectionate towards Da Ya.In the eyes of the villagers, some are envious, some are jealous, and some are disdainful.

Fortunately, the bandit Asan's family has been expelled, and Rao Laosan's family has also been expelled. Those families who brought thieves to harm Shanqian Village during the war were all expelled by the old patriarch without hesitation. Out of Shanqian Village.

Rao's third family is Shaoyao's natal family and Da Ya's third uncle's family.The family was kicked out of Shanqian Village, Rao Lao Si's family settled down a lot, and they no longer dared to trouble the Da Ya's family, nor did they dare to yell at Mrs. Pan and Old Man Rao.

The old house was divided into two, the upper room and the west courtyard, and a wall was built in the middle. The west courtyard was the home of Rao Laosi, and the upper room was naturally the home of Mrs. Pan and Rao.In the corner of the wall was a very small door, which was left open during the day and bolted at night from the upper room.

A war, a severe drought, every family in Shanqian Village was turned into a mess by someone, and many necessary daily necessities were missing.Such as pots and pans and bedding or something.

The eldest brother Xiangdong is very busy and has no time to take care of family affairs, so the eldest ya went to the county with Shui Qingqian to buy daily necessities for grandparents and the family.

The Taste Building and Mo Xiangzhai in the county town have finally reopened. Shopkeeper Yue also came back from the capital. Hearing that Da Ya brought her new husband and son-in-law to visit, Shopkeeper Yue quickly put down what he was doing and went from the paper mill Hurry back to Moxiang's house.

"This is Zhenxing's father? Very good, very good! Congratulations on your family reunion!" Shopkeeper Yue cupped his hands in congratulations, his face full of joy.

Shui Qingqian is Zhenxing's biological father. This saying has long been widely circulated and accepted by the world.Shui Qingqian, pseudonym Shui Wu, Tong Shui Wu, the distant cousin of Tan's daughter Gu Yu's husband-in-law.However, his name on the household registration book is still Shui Qingqian, and Zhenxing is called Shui Zhenxing.

Coming out of Moxiangzhai, Da Ya and Shui Qingqian took Li Zheng and the old patriarch's letter of introduction and certificate, went to the county government office, and registered the family's household registration.The head of the household is naturally Shui Qingqian, his wife Rao Chuyue, and his son Shui Zhenxing.The newly appointed magistrate is a Jinshi of the new department, and he is Qiao Xingbang, Qiao Junyi's younger brother, who is twenty years old.

Da Ya and Qiao Xingbang also met once. Before Qiao Xingbang came to Hulu County to take office, his father and two elder brothers seemed to tell him to take good care of the Rao family.Therefore, the registration of household registration went very smoothly, and there was no embarrassment for Daya at all, and the registration was completely done according to her wishes.

The couple drove the ox cart and happily embarked on the return journey.

Walking near Mengjiazhuang, Shui Qingqian suddenly stopped the ox cart.

"What's the matter?" Da Ya asked suspiciously.

Shui Qingqian's expression was a bit dignified: "Yue'er, listen, is there a child crying?"

Da Ya listened attentively and nodded: "Yes, it seems to be the cry of a child, and the cry is a bit miserable. Why don't you go and have a look?"

"Well, you stay here, I'll go and have a look!" Shui Qingqian took it for granted, in this barren mountain, there was actually a child crying, this is too abnormal!

During this visit, an astonishing discovery was made: it turned out that a family of three was about to commit suicide by jumping into the river!
Shui Qingqian was shocked, and quickly dissuaded him: "What is this for? It's better to live than to die. If there is any embarrassment, I will definitely help if I can!"

"Thank you benefactor, there is really no way out!" The family of three who jumped into the river cried, looking very miserable.

"Come with me!" Shui Qingqian felt a headache from hearing this, and felt a little impatient while pitying the other party.

In this world, who has an easy life?Let's just talk about him and Da Ya, which one didn't come out of a desperate situation?If you encounter difficulties, jump into the river. I believe that after the war and severe drought, this Hulu County may be empty!

What he dislikes the most is cowardly people!Not afraid of death, but afraid of living?No matter how difficult it is to live, it is a hundred times better than looking for death. After death, everything is empty, and there is no hope!Only by living, living well, and living hard, can there be hope!

Seeing the three of them and hearing Shui Qingqian's words, Da Ya was also very shocked.She grew up in Shanqian Village, and she understands the poor people better and has a little more patience.He took out some food for the family of three, and sat down on the grass: "Sit down and eat, and tell me after eating, what's the problem? I'm from Shanqian Village, let's see if I can help you ?”

"Thank you, my benefactor. We are from Lijia Village. My name is Li Shanyao. If it weren't for the fact that we couldn't survive, we wouldn't want to jump into the river..." The child's father took the food and was so moved that he said , I couldn't help crying.

It turned out that this family lived in the Li family village next door to Mengjiazhuang. During the war, the couple's family was ruined and their two older children were killed, leaving only a six-year-old son.During the severe drought, the house and fields were sold, and the family of three managed to survive.Unexpectedly, the youngest son was seriously ill again, and when there was no way out, the family of three were about to jump into the river to commit suicide, but they were rescued by Shui Qingqian.

"Well, it's not easy for everyone nowadays. How about this, I just want to buy some servants for my grandparents, are you willing to sell yourself as slaves? I can't promise anything else, but every meal is full. I can guarantee that. Besides, as long as you keep yourselves in order, you won't be beaten or scolded!" Da Ya sighed and said.

"Where is this lady from?" Li Shanyao couldn't have wished for such a condition without being beaten or scolded honestly.However, he still asked this question out of prudence.

"Me, I'm from Shanqian Village, and my father's name is Rao Shouqin." Da Ya didn't mind, and said with a faint smile.

"Oh? Could it be that Madam is Da Ya Rao?" Li Shanyao's eyes lit up suddenly, and he asked hastily.

"Yes, I'm Rao Da Ya, I don't dare to be a good person!" Da Ya couldn't help feeling amused.Good man?Who fiddled with this statement?
"Why aren't you a good person? If my wife is not a good person, there will be no good people in this world! I am very willing and grateful to be able to take care of my wife's grandparents!" Li Shanyao was very excited, as if Selling one's body to the Rao family is like picking up gold ingots.

With Shui Qingqian's consent, Da Ya decides to buy the family of three, intending to sign a ten-year contract and send the old house to her grandparents.The men are doorkeepers and drive cars, the women wash, cook and clean, and the boys act as servants and do some errands.

Immediately, the three members of Li Shanyao's family got into the bullock cart and returned to Shanqian Village as quickly as possible.When I came to the old house, it was in the evening, and the stone slabs under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the old house were full of old people chatting.

Now, Pan's temper is getting better and better, and many old people in the village are willing to associate with her.She cleaned the doorway every day, and gradually attracted a lot of people to come here to gather and chat, chatting about family affairs, and passing the boring days.

The entrance of the old house has become a small leisure place since I don't know when.Pan's is not stingy, she is willing to take out some tea, dried fruit and so on for everyone to eat.The aunts and aunts in the village like to come here to sit and sit, and happy laughter floats over the old house.

When Daya and Shui Qingqian brought Li Shanyao's family of three to the old house, they happened to see a harmonious scene.

"Very good, grandma has finally completely let go of her obsessions and enjoyed her old age. It's really gratifying! Daddy and Second Uncle can finally feel at ease!" Da Ya sighed.

Shui Qingqian nodded; "Well, that's right. Your grandpa and grandma are actually pure-hearted people. If you think about it, you won't be fooling around. Let go of the past! In the future, treat the two elders better , after all, they are your biological grandparents!"
