Reborn under the White Mountain

Chapter 90
Yuxian and Dalang were originally in the house, but when they heard their uncle talking about state affairs, the children all ran out.Da Lang led his younger siblings to the river. The ice on the river was like a mirror, flat and smooth, and the children loved to play ice skating on it.Running and stopping for a while, and then the whole person will slip forward for a long time, this is simply the boy's favorite.

Dalang also took out a few spinning tops that he had made in his spare time, and led his younger siblings to play spinning tops on the ice.It made Yuxian laugh constantly, and there were many children around, and they all came to watch when they saw this.Children also have their own tricks in playing spinning tops. Sometimes if they play well, people will applaud and cheer, and there will be laughter on the river.

I don't know which family's child came out with skates and skating on the ice.Seeing his small body, dancing and jumping lightly on the ice, the children around him were stunned.When Xiaosi saw it, she was envious.

"Little Si, don't worry, I'll go back and make it for you." Da Lang comforted Xiao Si when he saw Xiao Si's appearance. In fact, the kid's skates were really not very good.It's just a piece of wood made into the size of a shoe, with two thick iron wires inlaid underneath, and then a few noses that can pass through the rope are inlaid on the wood.This allows the skates to be worn on the feet without the ropes falling off.

Dalang led his younger siblings back to his grandmother's house, and asked his uncle and father for help.Several people worked hard all afternoon, and finally made three pairs of skates, which made Xiao Si very happy.Just when I was about to eat at night, I heard movement outside. Yun Song went out to see, and it turned out that Bilian's family had returned.

This time his family also came back with Xue Ping and Xue An following the two sledges.Xue Jinyu was on the sledge ahead, and his three sons were with him.Xue Jinyu was also creative enough to spread several layers of quilts and leather on the sledge.Others were sitting on the quilt, and Bilianniang was lying in the quilt, tightly covered, and Zixuan and Ziling came to serve this time.

Mrs. Wu also came out, and when she saw her little daughter, she was taken aback, "It's so cold, why did you bring the child back? The child is only seven months old, so he can stand up to all your troubles. You just won't come back, mother." I can still pick on you. I was born with these crimes, and it’s okay to come back when the weather is warm? Besides, when did you leave when you were in the third day of junior high school? You came out of your home in the second year of junior high school? It’s not yet the new year, you Mother-in-law doesn't care about you?" Mrs. Wu hurriedly took over her granddaughter, and Zixuan helped Bilian get off the sledge.

"Mother, I couldn't come back last year during the Chinese New Year. This year, my mother-in-law also told us to come back. Besides, there is soup in the quilt, so it's not cold. At this time, the sledge is much faster than the carriage. It will be a little more than a day and a half. It will be here soon. Son It's more worry-free, and I won't cry or make trouble." Bilian said indifferently.

"Your day, I really don't know what to say about you. You have such a big heart that you are not afraid of the child choking on the wind. It's a long journey. How can you clean up the child if he urinates along the way?" Wu said. while shaking his head.

"Mother, the child is very good. He just sleeps and eats little on the way, so it's fine." Jinyu came over and helped Bilian with a few words.

"You two, I really don't know what to say, come in quickly."

Everyone entered the room, and everyone in the room greeted each other.Mrs. Wu didn't expect Bilian to come back, so she quickly went to heat up a lot of steamed buns. There were plenty of dishes at home, all of which had been prepared long ago.After a while, the food was ready, Wu asked everyone to eat first, there were nearly twenty people, and two tables were set up, Xue Ping, Xue An, Zixuan and Ziling all ate together.Seeing the people in the room, Mrs. Wu was very happy.Take out the wine and let Fang Xin, Yun Song, and Jin Yu drink some.

"Hey, I've been looking forward to this day all year round. It's very lively and comfortable." Wu smiled from ear to ear.

"Mother, Jinyu and I have agreed that this time we will stay until the end of the first lunar month before going back. This year, we will stay at home and spend time with our bridesmaid." Bi Lian cuddled up to her mother and acted like a spoiled child. "Sister, you should stay at home for a few more days this year. Anyway, the family is separated, and no one cares about you."

"Okay, I'll stay at home for a while this year and stay with you well." Fang promised with a smile.

Yu Xian's table is full of children, and they have something to say.Dalang and the others haven't seen their cousins ​​for a year. When they met, they were very affectionate and talked to each other about what they had done this year.When Bowen heard that the Tong brothers were practicing literature and martial arts at home, he was extremely envious.I kept clamoring to go to my aunt's house, so as not to go to private school every day in Fucheng and listen to the old master's nagging.

Da Lang naturally dare not agree, these things are up to the adults.I just mentioned that the skates were finished this afternoon, and tomorrow they can go skating on the river.The boys were very happy when they heard this, and asked Da Lang to make a few more pairs, and Da Lang readily agreed.

After everyone finished eating, the boys naturally pestered Yun Songjinyu and the others to make skates.Yuxian went to see her aunt's sister when she was free. Maybe she slept too much during the day. At this time, the little guy opened his eyes wide and looked at the new place.This little girl is very beautiful, white and fat, with big black and bright eyes, a small white and pink face, and fleshy hands, no matter how cute she looks.She is seven months old now, she can turn over and sit up, so naturally she doesn't want to lie down.Yuxian helped her up and sat up, and put a pillow behind the little sister, so that she would not be afraid of her falling back suddenly.Then one big and one small stared at each other, making the adults in the family very happy.

"Yu Xian really likes children." Bi Lian said something, but unexpectedly, this sentence made Fang shed tears.Bi Lian quickly persuaded, "Eldest sister, don't be sad, let's take good care of it, maybe we can have another child."

"Bilian, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I'm sorry for the child, I'm not blessed." Fang always thinks of the lost child, but it's not easy to show it on weekdays.Today, in front of my mother and younger sister, I couldn't bear it anymore, and tears fell down in unison.

"Okay, don't cry during the Chinese New Year. There are so many happy things, don't think about the bad things in the past. Take good care of your body, maybe there will be more in the future. Let's just think of what Yuxian said, take care of yourself Let's live our lives, and wait to see what happens to those people." Mrs. Wu stepped forward, hugged her daughter, and comforted her softly. "By the way, Xin'er can stay at home until the tenth day of the lunar new year. You should at least stay until then. Since you all got married, our family has never been so lively. This year is the most crowded."

Fang cried for a while, and felt much better. Seeing her mother comforting herself again, she felt embarrassed.Wiping away tears, he sat up straight.It happened that Mrs. Wu talked about staying for a few more days. Mrs. Fang thought about it. If she lived until the tenth day, she would have to go back to cook some food for Mr. Yuan, which is not a big deal.But the children can't do it, and they have to go back to school, so I told my mother. "Mom, why don't you go to my place in a few days. My place is also big, and the children can go back to read and write. Mr. Yuan won't let them play for too long. Bilian, you haven't been to my place yet. Go and stay for a few days."

"Fine, I can go anywhere, anyway, living with my mother is no different from living with you." Bilian agreed without thinking.

In this way, the whole family lived in Wu's until the sixth day.Now the children are playing like crazy. Every day they either go skating or go to the sledge slope.The eight boys, together with Yuxian, no one would dare to provoke them, and they almost became the leader of the children in the village.Then you will see a very spectacular scene. Every day, there will be twenty or thirty children, pulling the sledge, roaring across the river.A few blog posts, I have never played so happily. In Fucheng, someone would let children play like this.

On the seventh day of the lunar new year, everyone decided to go to Tong's house, and Fang Xin also wanted to go to see Mr. Yuan.Jinyu also wanted to meet, because his son said he wanted to study at Yunsong's house, and Jinyu was also very curious about Mr. Yuan's teaching methods.So the whole family went to Tong's house in such a mighty way. Knowing that Tong's house did not have so many people's bedding, Wu brought a few sets of bedding from home, and spread them on the sledge like Bilian did.

When they arrived at Tong's house, Fang Xin, Bi Lian, and Jin Yu all praised the house for being well built.When everyone entered the house, Yun Song came back early to warm up the house, and everyone moved bedding and other things into the house.

Naturally, Fang Xin and Jin Yu visited Yuan Qingyun first. When the three of them met, they hit it off and chatted freely.Fang Xin couldn't help but admire Yuan Qingyun, "A conversation with you is better than studying for ten years. Brother Yuan, you have learned so much to stay in this village and teach, but it is a bit too inferior."

Yuan Qingyun didn't care, "I've experienced everything in my life. Now I just want to be here and teach a few apprentices well. Those who are idle and wild are even more at ease."

"Everyone has their own aspirations, Brother Yuan, you can rest assured that this is it. My sister and brother-in-law are all very good people, and they will never treat you slowly." Fang Xin naturally would not force it. "By the way, second brother-in-law, Bowen and the others said they want to study here. Why don't you talk to Brother Yuan now, if the children follow Brother Yuan, they will definitely have more prospects than if they go to a private school."

Xue Jinyu nodded, and then asked Yuan Qingyun: "Mr. Yuan, I have three sons. I heard from Junye that they are studying literature and martial arts with you, and I want to follow along. I wonder if Mr. Yuan is willing to accept more disciples?"

Yuan Qingyun didn't expect that, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "How about this, you bring the child, I'll take a look first, the old man accepts apprentices, it also depends on qualifications."

Jinyu hurriedly called the three children in. Yuan Qingyun saw that the three children had good looks and high spirits, and they were good youngsters, so she agreed. "Okay, just stay and let them try for a few days to see if they can bear the hardship."

The three children hurriedly kowtowed to Yuan Qingyun, "The disciple pays homage to the master."

Yuan Qingyun smiled and asked them to get up, "Since you are going to be here, I hope you will remember that our family is an ordinary farm family, not a high-ranking compound in your prefecture. It has changed the temper of your young masters. Yes, you have to go to the fields to work when the farming is busy, understand?" Yuan Qingyun is very willing to let students get in touch with farm work and let them experience the hardships of farmers, which is good for training children and cultivating their character and ability.

The three children said in unison: "Understood, Master, this disciple will definitely remember Master's teachings."

Fang Xin laughed out loud when he heard Yuan Qingyun's words, "Brother Yuan is really a wonderful person, as it should be, if he only knows how to read, doesn't work hard, doesn't know the grains, and doesn't know the difficulties of farming. Even if he is an official in the future, It's just for one side's misfortune." Xue Jinyu also agreed with this statement.

Yuan Qingyun left the three children to chat, and Fang Yun and Xue Jinyu came to the courtyard, "Second brother-in-law, the chaos in Beijing has begun. The Jingnan Hou's mansion is now defected to the eldest prince, brother-in-law, be careful, and try not to do it again in the mine for a while." Gold has been produced. Those people in the Hou's Mansion have been eyeing brother-in-law's family business. If they know that brother-in-law still has a gold mine, disaster will come soon. Before the overall situation is settled, the gold mine should be closed and all personnel should be properly Arrangement, don’t let the news leak.”

"Brother Xin, I understand what you said. The mine has been closed for half a year, all personnel have been moved to the coal mine, and people have been sent to strictly guard it. My brother-in-law knows the seriousness of the matter." Xue Jinyu has already made arrangements.When he first arrived in the north, he encountered a coal mine disaster.The coal mine was exhausted, and the owner of the mine saw that it was not profitable and so many people had died, so he sold it to Jinyu at a low price.At that time, Xue Jinyu just felt sorry for the families of the victims. He bought the abandoned mine and paid for the families.When I went to check the scene of the mine disaster, I accidentally discovered that there was a gold mine with very rich gold content.His kindness was rewarded, so he arranged for those family members to mine gold mines, which is the real reason why he was able to quickly accumulate so much wealth in more than ten years.As for the capital, he has been on guard ever since Wen He's incident happened.

The two were talking, and Yun Song also came out.Fang Xin looked at the two brother-in-laws, one was simple and thick, the other was elegant and handsome, and felt that her sister really did marry the wrong person. "Eldest brother-in-law, second brother-in-law, our family is not a famous family nowadays, but in this small mountain village, it is not bad. Back then, because of my father, my mother and sister did not approve of me taking the imperial examination. Take the imperial examination. Although you are now working for the emperor, the officialdom is dark, and conspiracy and strife are inevitable everywhere. I think that Erlang and Bowen have a good understanding of poetry, books, classics, etc. If it is possible If so, let them take the Tongsheng Examination, it's not too difficult. Even if they fail the exam, they can also have more experiences. If they can really get a name in the exam, in the future in the court, we, uncles and nephews, can also be with each other. Take care."

"It would be great if he could really have something to offer. My father was also famous back then, and this descendant can't disgrace the reputation of our ancestors." Yun Song also thought about it after hearing Fang Xin's words. "Brother Xin thinks Erlang can do it? I think Dalang is also good, be more stable."

"Dalang has a lot of thoughts and thinks too much, so he can't concentrate on studying like Erlang. After Dalang, he can be the head of the house. He is an excellent choice for the head of the house. Brother-in-law, let's earn a good share of the family business. These few days This child, with Mr. Yuan's teaching, will be able to accomplish a lot." Fang Xin has another kind of expectation for Da Lang.

"Okay, it's rare for us to get together, and Mr. Yuan is added, let's find him for a drink." Xue Jinyu suggested, and the other two agreed, so they took the wine and went to find Yuan Qingyun.

　The first update was sent, sorry, I wrote too much, I thought about it, I should post it.
