Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Watching Manbao walk away with the wooden basin, Little Qian thought about it, then turned and walked to the door of the main room, just as Lao Zhoutou and Qian also got up.

It should be said that they didn't sleep all night, and they were ready to get up when they heard the movement in the yard.

Little Qian knocked on the door, and old Zhou Tou put on his clothes and went out to give them space.

Xiaoqian entered the door and whispered what Man Bao said just now, and asked, "Mother, does Man Bao know?"

Mrs. Qian nodded, "If she wants to go, let her go. Don't say anything, the yamen is investigating this matter. Man Bao said that she can ask the county magistrates to avenge the second child, but this matter... In short Just don't show your breath."

Little Qian nodded quickly, feeling a little worried.

This matter is not just a matter of their family, the whole village has participated in it. If Zhou Yin cannot be redressed, and Zhou Yin is still convicted, then the whole village will suffer accordingly.

There was some light in the sky, and Man Bao went to Bai's house to look for Bai Shan with a basket filled with joss paper money.

The guard at the door froze for a moment when he heard the knock on the door, then opened the door and looked at Man Bao in a daze, "Miss Man, it's only daylight."

"I know, is Bai Shan up yet?"

The servant said distressedly: "The young one is the gatekeeper, the young master is in the second courtyard, why don't you go and see for yourself."

After finishing speaking, he stepped aside and let Man Bao in.

Man Bao walked in with a basket.

The servants of the Bai family, except for those in the kitchen, have just woken up not long ago. They go out to clean the house, and those who pour Yexiang are pouring Yexiang. They were a little stunned when they met Manbao on the road, but they still stood beside them and bowed to salute and say hello. .

Man Bao arrived at Bai Shan's courtyard unimpeded all the way, and early in the morning, he had a clever servant and ran to report first.

Bai Shan also got up, but before he could wash up, he poked his head out from the door when he heard the movement in the yard, saw Man Bao and waved: "I still need to wash up, you wait for me in the living room first. "

Man Bao responded, but handed the basket to the servants at the side to put it away, entered his room, watched him wash his face, and said, "Are you going to visit the grave with me? I have a lot to say to you, why not?" I need you to help me refer to something."

As soon as Bai Shan heard it, he knew that she must have gone to ask her parents last night, and he didn't know the result?

He nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, wait for me, I will go with you after breakfast."

While washing his face, Bai Shan said to the servants waiting at the side: "Go to the kitchen and get two breakfast meals, you can do whatever you want, you don't have to wait to prepare everything."

Man Bao sat on a chair beside him and said, "I've eaten noodles, but I don't want to."

Bai Shan nodded to his servants and said, "Go."

The servants responded and left.

After Bai Shan cleaned his face and hands, he went to comb his hair. After he tidied himself up, the servants brought the breakfast.

Man Bao glanced at the servants who came in and out, and said suspiciously: "There are many people I have never seen before."

Bai Shan nodded and said: "Not long ago, my grandmother was brought from Longzhou. Although I have never seen her before, she is a child of the family."

He gave Man Bao a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and asked her, "Are you sure you don't want to eat any more?"

Man Bao shook his head, "No appetite."

Bai Shan then speeded up her meal, it seemed that she was hit hard, otherwise she would not lose her appetite.

Bai Shan put down his chopsticks as soon as he finished eating, got up and said, "Let's go."

"Aren't you going to greet Grandma Liu?"

Bai Shan shook his head, "It's enough to ask the servants to talk to grandma, and we will go to say hello when we come back. Grandma hasn't woken up for long."

Man Bao asked someone to take back his basket, and walked out with him.

Daji appeared out of nowhere, and followed them before they left the gate.

Man Bao glanced at him, and led them to the cemetery of their family at the end of the village.

Just after going up the mountain, Man Bao said to Daji with a serious face: "Daji, we have to whisper, can you stay away and not listen?"

Daji nodded silently and stopped in his tracks.

The two of them walked to Uncle Man Bao's tomb. Daji could see them from the position where they were standing, but they couldn't hear what they said.

Man Bao took out all the joss sticks from the basket, and Bai Shan helped grab a handful of hay from nearby. The two lit the hay with a flint, then lit the joss sticks and inserted them.

Man Bao took a handful of incense in his hand, and respectfully knelt down to offer incense, while Bai Shan stood aside and waited for her.

Man Bao inserted the incense, and then he found a piece of grass and talked to Bai Shan.

Without hesitation, she told him all the things she asked yesterday, and then said, "Tell me, how can I persuade Magistrate Tang to clear up my father's grievances?"

Bai Shandao: "This is very difficult. Although County Magistrate Tang asked, but he is now in Yizhou City and the county magistrate of Huayang County, how could he be in charge of Luojiang County?"

"Magistrate Yang's ability to solve the case is not as good as Magistrate Tang's. This is an old case. If Magistrate Yang can't find out, won't everyone in our village be accused?" Man Bao said: "So we still have to Ask Tang county magistrate."

Bai Shan thought for a while and said: "Even if you ask, you have to ask County Magistrate Yang first. The incident happened in Luojiang County. If County Magistrate Tang wants to investigate, you have to get the consent of County Magistrate Yang. If you can persuade County Magistrate Yang to invite Magistrate Tang, that would be much easier."

"Then we have to wait until he gets married and comes back."

"Yes," Bai Shan counted with his fingers: "Even if he comes back after marriage, he will still be a month younger, don't worry."

Man Bao sighed, "Okay, then we still have to act like we don't care about anything."

Bai Shan nodded and comforted her: "If you are your uncle's daughter, then you are still a child of the Zhou family, just like your parents' child. Don't be sad."

Man Bao said: "I'm not sad anymore, I just feel sore and a little bit bitter. I always feel wronged for them."

She said: "It's been twelve years, and I didn't even know there were them. Not only were they murdered, but they were also charged with crimes. They couldn't even sweep the graves of their family members openly. I felt so uncomfortable."

Bai Shan thought for a while, looked left and right, and found that Daji was the only one nearby, so he stretched out his arms to hug Man Bao, patted her on the back lightly and said, "Why don't you cry?"

Man Bao was held in his arms, his little face flushed slightly, he pushed him away and said, "Don't you take advantage of me?"

"How old are you, how old am I? What can I take advantage of you?" Even so, Bai Shan's ears turned red, and he complained loudly: "I'm just comforting you as a friend, okay? A person who looks like a person sees color, it's you." I thought wrongly."

Man Bao didn't expect that he was feeling so uncomfortable, he even quarreled with him, so angry he kicked him, Bai Shan jumped back, turned around and ran away.

Man Bao picked up the basket on the ground and chased after him. He ran all the way to the foot of the mountain but failed to catch up with Bai Shan, so he could only stop panting.

Bai Shan also stopped panting, turned around and looked at her and asked with a smile, "How is it, don't you feel uncomfortable?"

Man Bao felt it carefully, and it was true that she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Good night
