Rebirth of First Daughter

After the Spring Festival, Ruhui tells Zhong Shantong about her family, and then leaves for Tongcheng with Ning Zhan.

Just out of the capital, Ruhui was in high spirits. She felt strange when she saw everything. Can walk a few days, the person is languid what all did not raise the vigor to come.

This day staying in the wild, Ning Zhan said with a smile: "second sister, I don't know, I thought you were going out for the first time!" That year, the capital was in turmoil, but Ruhui went to the Northwest with Xiao.

Ruhui touched her head and said, "I was young at that time." And when I went to the northwest, I was terrified, and I had to comfort the frightened Xiao. I didn't care about anything else.

Ning Zhan looked at her this appearance is not right, the next day when passing by the county, he did not rush, but stayed in the inn. After the rest, we sent someone to invite the best doctor from the county to come.

The doctor felt the pulse and said that Ruhui was cold and ill. See Ning Zhan face all changed, the doctor busy comfort way: "just cold, found in time, take two paste medicine is good."

Ruhui leaned on the bed and said feebly, "I thought it was carsickness!" Who knows it's cold? No wonder it's so hard!

Ning Zhan is also speechless: "sister, you can't even distinguish between illness and cold." Thanks to his abnormal appearance, he invited a doctor for the sake of safety. If there is delay, a minor illness will turn into a serious one.

"I didn't get sick like that before." She used to have a fever all her life. This time, she didn't have a fever. She was just dizzy. And this symptom is very similar to the legendary carsickness.

Ning Zhan doesn't argue with her about this meaningless problem: "first get well, then go on the road." Anyway, they are not in a hurry. It doesn't matter for a few days in the evening. But afraid of Ninghai and Xiao's worry, he wrote a letter to have it sent.

After Ruhui got well, she took another day off, and her sister and brother continued on their way. Passing Anshan, the two sisters turned to see Tiehu.

Because in advance did not write to inform, Iron Tiger see sister and brother two surprise unceasingly, busy called two people in. Hear sister and brother two people is specially come to see him again, iron tiger is happy not to close mouth.

Fu quickly picked up the guest rooms and spread them with brand-new quilts. All the furnishings in the house were replaced by the best in the family.

After three days at tie's house, sister and brother received the highest standard of hospitality. They are not used to it.

Fortunately, three days passed quickly, and they continued on their way.

Chunni and Fu prepared a lot of food for them. The next two days, sister and brother do not have to eat hard with the stone cake.

At noon that day, Ruhui was eating egg cake with scallion and said, "Er Gu is so good. How can she be such a bad son of Duan Honglang?"

When Duan Honglang and his wife hear Ning Zhan and Ruhui coming, they come to make up with each other. If it's just making up with each other, they don't pay attention at most, but Duan Honglang proposes to go to Tongcheng with them. But without waiting for their brother and sister to speak, the couple were driven out by Iron Tiger.

Ning Zhan heard this, said with a smile: "also can't say so, every family has a difficult to read by." Like their family, there is also an iron Fang Jia.

Ruhui said, "I can't say that. I don't think the empress has this trouble. The two princesses and the four princesses are so excellent. " And the relationship between sister and brother is very harmonious. There is no such thing as brothers fighting.

Ning Zhan didn't answer. Outsiders think that several princes are as good as the princess. The emperor and the queen are good at teaching their children. They don't have to worry about their children, but he often walks around the palace. How can he not know the beauty of the third prince. The emperor and the queen have a headache. But this kind of Royal Mishin, he will not say to Ruhui.

How to put it? Women like gossip the most. The front foot tells her, but the back foot tells others.

Skipping this topic, Ning Zhan said: "it's strange to say that cousin Duan. Before, his father said that he would find a job in Tongcheng. He thought that the environment in Tongcheng was too bad and he was afraid of hardship. This time, he is shouting that he will follow us to Tongcheng. I don't know what the trouble is

Ruhui white one eye: "you don't know, how can I know." How could she know that she was huddled in the backyard all day!

Sister and brother don't know, but the iron family do. Tie Honglin has been promoted, and now he is promoted to an official of seven grades. It's only been a few months. It's been upgraded one level. Duan Honglang knew it and was jealous again.

There are very few literate people in Tongcheng, so there is a shortage of civilian personnel in the army. A lot of documents, but also hire those guilty officials to help handle. Tie Honglin, who has a scholar's reputation and a clean family, is rare in the army. After he went to work, he devoted himself to the work, especially the overtime work last year. He didn't cry tired or bitter. So after the Spring Festival, it was promoted to a higher level.

Tiehu calmly said to Chunni, "are you going to see Duan Honglang again?"

Chunni nodded and said, "I went to see you. He asked me to ask kuizi for a job. But don't worry, Dad. I've already rejected him. "

Iron Tiger looked at Chunni incredulously.

"Dad, last time I asked him to work in Tongcheng, he was afraid of hardship. Now, I have no face to speak. "

Tie Hu looked a little slower, and said: "Hongbo is the master, and Honglin is very successful in Tongcheng now. All these are thanks to kuizi. Even if she is a brother and sister, kuizi has done enough. Don't talk about Duan Honglang in the future. Even if it's about Hongbo and Honglin, don't worry about it. If they do a good job, kuizi will help them. " If it's not easy to do the errands and lose kuizi's face, they will only consume their past love.

Chunni quickly nodded and said, "don't worry, Dad. I won't ask kuizi for the children's business any more." The eldest son and the youngest son have a sense of propriety. They don't need to worry about it. As for the second son, she doesn't want to take care of him.

"I hope you can do what you say," Tiehu said

Back in the room, Chunni sat on the bed in a daze. When Duan Dongzi came into the room, she couldn't help saying, "how did this child become like this? It's light to say there's no face and no skin. "

Duan Dongzi said, "I told you not to go to see him. You won't listen."

Duan Dongzi is in the iron family. He always works silently and never takes charge. So that Duan Honglang thought that his father had no status at home, so he also went to Chunni for something, never to Duan Dongzi.

The first two times I didn't get any money, and then I didn't come to her for half a year. This time, I was looking for her for a job.

Thinking of this, Chunni was out of breath: "listen to you, I won't see him again." Every time I come to see her, I either ask for money or have something to ask for.

Duan Dongzi said in a voice, "if there's anything wrong, I'll see him."

This matter, the couple so decided.

After the spring city, the sister and brother left for a while. Today, Ruhui couldn't help muttering, "I've been walking for several days, but there isn't a village."

Ning Zhan said: "many people died in the war years ago. Those who didn't die fled. Later, the imperial court took over Liaodong and concentrated the few people together. " Sometimes there are only a few or a dozen people left in a village. This is not Jiangnan. Back to the mountain, these people are likely to lose their lives if they want the beast to run to the village.

Ruhui said in a voice: "so it is!"

After five days in a town, I found that there was no washbasin except bed and quilt in the inn. No matter how simple it is, I can only bear to go out.

When I had dinner, I looked at the big pots of cabbage and pork stewed noodles, potato stewed beef and a northeast chowder on the table. Ruhui had no appetite at all: "how did you eat this?"

Ning Zhan said with a smile: "this is for the guards. Our food is still ready." The people who escorted sister and brother to Liaodong were all from Northeast China. These dishes are their favorite.

As long as it's not for her, Ruhui has no problem.

The closer to Tongcheng, the more difficult it is to see people. Looking at the boundless mountains, Ruhui said, "no wonder many people don't want to come to Tongcheng. It's too desolate here." After walking for more than ten days, I didn't see a village. There are mountains everywhere. It's not safe for two or three people to walk this way.

"Ordinary people, no one wants to go to the border town." Since it is a border town, the conditions are very bad. If people go to higher places and water flows to lower places, they must have gone to places with good conditions.

Looking at the two big characters "Tongcheng" engraved on the towering wall, Ruhui breathed a sigh and said, "here we are at last." It's not easy to walk for two months.

After entering the city, Ruhui found that the houses here were very short and gray.

"Ah Zhan, how can the houses here be so ugly?" It's gray. It's colorless. And the streets were deserted.

Ning Zhan hasn't been to Tongcheng and can't answer this question.

The wall of the general's mansion is very high, a large section higher than the houses beside it. However, it is also grey.

The steward kept watch at the door all the time. When he saw his sister and brother, he welcomed them in: "my son, my second daughter, my wife has gone to the wedding banquet of General Chen's family."

Fang Hui is nineteen years old this year. It's time to talk about marriage. Since Fang Hui wants to have a bright future in the army, he naturally married a girl from a military general's family. So since the beginning of the year, Xiao has often participated in the activities held by various wives.

Ninghai does not believe Xiao's vision, so let her help screen out the right age with good temper girl. As for character, he inquired about it himself.

Into the general's house, found that in addition to some pine cypress, nothing else. In this way, it seems that the house is particularly open. Fortunately, Xiao's courtyard corridor was planted with flowers, but they haven't blossomed yet, just a piece of green.

Into the house, such as Hui fell on the soft collapse, said with a smile: "tonight should be able to sleep well." These days, I stayed in the wild and didn't sleep well.

Ning Zhan said with a smile, "will you come next year?" They agreed to return to Beijing in early September.

Ruhui shook her head and said, "no, No I'm so tired this time that my bones are almost broken. I don't want to suffer this crime any more.
