Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 74 Rescue
Shen Ying sighed softly and said: "If you want to keep secrets strictly, you can't rely on being tight-lipped. You may reveal the clues through your expressions and emotions. This secret word is used well. As a superior, you must be able to hide your emotions Yu Se. Otherwise, others can guess your thoughts through your expression. There is a saying that the color will not change when the Mount Tai collapses, which means that no matter what the situation is, you must be calm."

"It's too difficult, I don't understand." Xiaodie said with a bitter face.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, as long as he understands." Shen Ying smiled softly.

Xiaodie smiled and said, "Miss is right!"

But Xiaodie immediately asked: "Miss, don't you think the young master did not do well? I think it is already very good. You can see that he was easily defeated by the officers and soldiers this time."

Shen Ying smiled softly: "He is really doing very well. Even my father admires him. My father said that he is open-minded, friendly, considerate and rigorous. At his age, he can do what he is doing now." It's been pretty amazing."

"Then why are you still telling him those things?" Xiaodie asked puzzled.

"Because my father doesn't know his ambition yet. I know that he will never hide in the mountains and be a bandit leader all his life. What he is doing now is to prepare for the future. In that case, it is far from enough to be what he is now." Shen Ying said.

"Why do you tell him in a roundabout way, can't you tell him directly?" Xiaodie asked
Shen Ying shook her head lightly and said: "Some things are not as simple as you think. This is a man's world. It's better to be a bit stupid to be a woman. Moreover, Buddhism pays attention to sudden enlightenment. Only when you realize it yourself can you truly understand it. Okay. Now, go grind your ink, I'm going to write something."

"Oh!" Xiaodie nodded in response.

. .

Gently pushing open the door, a gust of cold wind blew in, and Li Jing's spirit was immediately lifted.

Stepping on the white snow, Li Jing strolled down the mountain.

Li Jing was walking, when he heard a faint crying sound in front of him, Li Jing was startled, and rushed quickly.

Not far away, I saw about 30 people in front of me, crying and walking out of the mountain.

"Wait a minute, it's freezing cold, you people are crying and going down the mountain, where are you going?" Li Jing asked after quickly catching up.

Hearing someone calling, these people hurriedly turned their heads, and when they saw Li Jing, these people hurriedly knelt down on the ground.

"The old man, I'm sorry for you! The big man gave us food, clothed us, and built us a house. I didn't expect my rebellious son to be ungrateful, and even sent officers and soldiers to deal with the big man. How could the old man have the face to stay on the mountain. "An old man said tearfully.

"There is also the one who killed a thousand swords in my family. He left our mother and three children and joined the officers and soldiers. Seeing others pointing and pointing, our family can't hold our heads up." A woman said weeping.

Hearing this, Li Jing immediately knew that these people in front of him were the family members of the bandits who had followed Guo Zhen and surrendered to the officers and soldiers, and he also understood why they left the mountain.

After Zhou Huhu and the others went back, they told the story of those people surrendering to the officers and soldiers.

It is estimated that those who died relatives vented their anger on their heads.

There were hundreds of people from dozens of families, so many people mocked in front of their faces and cursed behind their backs, no one could stand it.

Maybe someone else said something even worse in front of them, which made these people feel ashamed to stay on the mountain.

Li Jing had expected that this kind of situation would happen to these people, but Li Jing didn't deliberately do anything.

Of course, Li Jing didn't want to expel these people down the mountain. After all, it wasn't their fault. They couldn't be punished just because their family members made mistakes.

Li Jing just needs to let the people on the mountain understand that those who betray the cottage will make their family suffer.

It's just that Li Jing never expected that these people would choose to leave the cottage!If Li Jing hadn't wanted to go down the mountain on a whim just now, I'm afraid he would have missed these people.

Li Jing was actually a little annoyed that so many people had left the mountain, yet no one told him.

For Li Jing, everyone in the mountains is a fortune.

Don't look at these people as old people, women and children, it seems that they can't do much.

In fact, there is a lot that these people can do.

Even if the old man doesn't have the energy to farm, he can help weed the head office and catch bugs, right?
In this era, there are no herbicides or insecticides. If you want to get a good harvest, you must rely on human labor to kill insects and weeds.

And how important food is, Li Jing knows better than anyone else.

The natural disasters that will sweep across the world in a few years will take the lives of countless people. One extra grain harvested now may save one person in the future.

And women can weave cloth, make clothes, make shoes, and help those who have no wives to sew.

As for children, children may not be able to help much now, but what about in the future?Ten years later, these children will grow up, and then they will be Li Jing's most loyal subordinates.

Li Jing never forgot what his goal was.

In order to get these people, Li Jing spent countless money and energy, how could he let them leave the mountain so easily.

Li Jing stepped forward, helped the old man up and said: "Uncle, get up quickly, uncles, aunts and sisters-in-law, please get up quickly, the ground is cold, don't freeze your body."

Helping the old man brush off the snow flakes, Li Jing continued: "All uncles, aunts and sisters-in-law, it is Li Jing who did not do his job well and made everyone wronged."

"No wonder the head of the family is the old man's rebellious son who doesn't live up to it and doesn't give our family a face. Oh, head of the family, please go back, the old man is grateful for your kindness for the rest of his life. The old man is old and can't help the head of the family, so I have to give it to the head of the family Set up a longevity tablet, and bless the head of the family with a long life." The old man said.

Li Jing waved his hands hurriedly and said, "Listen to me, everyone. I know everyone feels sorry for the brothers who died on the mountain and their families. But what does this matter have to do with you? When your son or man surrendered to the officers and soldiers I haven’t discussed it with you. You have to remember that you are you and they are them. If they did something wrong, it doesn’t mean that you did something wrong. If you are wrong, it is only because you gave birth to the wrong son, married Wrong man."

Suddenly Li Jing saw a woman holding a child. The child's face was flushed and his breathing was quite short.

Li Jing stepped forward to take the child from the woman, and touched the child's forehead with his hand, only to feel that the forehead was hot, knowing that the child must have caught a cold and had a fever.

Li Jing hurriedly said: "The child is seriously ill. You, a mother, don't care about the child's life and brave the severe cold to leave the mountain. If you delay the child's treatment, you will regret it in the future. And you old people, the snow on the mountain road If you are not careful, you will fall and hurt yourself. If something goes wrong, how can Li Jing feel at ease. Listen to me and follow me back to the mountain. If anyone tells you those gossip again, just let them come to me !"

After all, without waiting for these people to speak, Li Jing held the child and supported an old woman, turned around and walked up the mountain.

In fact, why do these people want to leave Hongshanling?But their family members did something wrong, and they were ridiculed and squeezed out every day these days.The so-called people need face, tree and bark, so they leave the mountain in desperation.

Li Jing came after them personally, and sincerely invited them back to the mountain. These people can tell the truth from the fake without deafness or blindness.

In addition, they also knew that what Li Jing said was true. If they were old or young, if they forcibly left the mountain, some people would inevitably get sick or injured.

But if they stayed, they would have to face those gossips in the future, and these people really didn't want to suffer any more.

But seeing Li Jing's resolute attitude, it's hard to refuse.

Although these people are simple, they are not ignorant of flattery, but they just made up their minds, let them talk if they want to talk, how many things the big boss has to do every day, so he can't let the big boss worry about these trivial things.

Li Jing led the people back to the mountain, but there was another embarrassment, because there were no vacant houses on the mountain, and Li Jing's living area was too small to accommodate so many people.

However, these people live in Laohuling area to the west of Hongshanling, which is more than ten miles away. These people bring their families, whether old or young, and they have traveled so far with luggage and food on their backs. If they rush back immediately, they will be afraid. It's the body that can't bear it.

After thinking about it, now that the end of the year is approaching, Shen Ying's school is temporarily suspended, and the Taoist temple is temporarily vacant, so Li Jing brought everyone to the Taoist temple to live temporarily.

The Taoist temple was adjacent to Shen Zheng's residence, so Li Jing casually called a bandit and ordered him to call Shen Zheng here.

When he saw Shen Zheng approaching, Li Jing hurriedly said: "Uncle Shen, arrange some ginger soup and hot water for these people to drink, and invite the doctor. This child has a severe fever and needs to be diagnosed and treated immediately."

Shen Zheng suddenly saw Li Jing bringing a large group of people to the Taoist temple, he didn't know why for a while, but when he saw these people carrying their luggage and bedding, he immediately understood what happened.

It's just that he didn't understand why Li Jing brought these people back.

When Shen Zheng wanted to come, the family members of these people had done something wrong to the cottage, and it was only normal for them to be expelled.

Shen Zheng even believed that it was Li Jing who wanted to get these people away, but in order not to damage Li Jing's reputation of benevolence and righteousness, he asked those family members who died in the battle to come forward to run on these people.

Therefore, when Shen Zheng learned that these people were going to leave the mountain, he did not keep them and did not notify Li Jing.

Shen Zheng didn't know why, so he responded, but he didn't move.

Seeing that Shen Zheng didn't move, Li Jing felt a little displeased, but he couldn't blame him in front of everyone, so he just said it again with a slightly heavier tone.

After hearing this, Shen Zheng came to his senses and realized that he might have misunderstood.Immediately, he hurried back and arranged for his servants to boil water and soup, and at the same time asked someone to find a doctor to treat the child.

After Shen Zheng finished making arrangements, Li Jing said: "Everyone rest here for the time being, and go home when you are healthy. As for the funeral, I will arrange for Uncle Shen to deal with it. You don't have to worry about it."

"Thank you for your kindness, the master. When I see my naughty son in the future, I will let him kowtow to apologize to the master." The old man hurriedly said.

"Yes! Yes! When I see my man in the future, I will definitely ask him to kowtow to the head of the family." A group of women said angrily.

Li Jing waved his hand, sighed in his heart, and said in his heart: "I'm afraid you will never have the chance to see them again."

After a while, Shen Zheng arranged for people to bring soup, and soon the doctor also rushed over.

After the doctor finished caring for the child and prescribed the medicine, Li Jing comforted everyone, and then left with Shen Zheng.

Seeing Li Jing's thoughtfulness, everyone felt grateful. Looking at Li Jing's leaving back, their eyes couldn't help but become moist.
