Rise of the Light of the Elf

"Grandnephew, look at how lonely you are alone in such a big courtyard." A young woman with a face that seemed to have a layer of white face came up and said.

"Oh? Who told you that I'm the only one left?" Xisang asked seemingly confused.

"That high official..." Before she finished speaking, she asked the old woman to pinch her. Only then did she realize that she had let the truth slip. She covered her mouth, not daring to say another word.

Smarter people will understand immediately.

"Actually, even if you don't mention it, I still plan to let you in. It's good for us to be together and have someone to take care of me. I'm really lonely on my own." Xisang said with a lonely look on his face.

When those people heard this, they immediately nodded happily.

Xisang paused and continued to say sadly: "My father has a lot of leftover family property, and I want to share some with you. But you may not know that my father has a family rule, that is, every time there is a war, whatever he brings out Anyone who dies on the battlefield will be compensated with some silver coins. I have calculated that the remaining silver coins are not enough. Now I have to sell all my property to barely have enough. Now I can't afford the slaves. Yesterday I have given the contract to the servants and asked them to leave on their own as soon as the funeral is over. From now on, my grandnephew will have to rely on the help of my uncles, aunts, and grandparents to survive. I cannot see the light, and I have to take care of my daily life. I Look at the sister with powder on her face just now. But I look like this, I am afraid that my sister will be disliked by her husband's family in the future. But my sister understands justice so well, I believe she will not dislike me. We are one family People should help each other in the same boat, eat together when they have food and drink together when they have water."

The old woman looked horrified when she saw this, and the others also looked ugly.

It happened that the servants were crying, and it was probably true that the old woman knew this.

The old woman glared at Xisang and stammered: "Then...then what's the big deal if Laoshizi's family rules...are broken...if they are broken."

Xisang said with a cold face: "Then you have to ask the tens of thousands of wives in this human race who have lost their husbands, mothers who have lost their sons, and children who have lost their fathers, if they will agree!"

As soon as Xisang finished speaking, the old woman suddenly felt that the air around her seemed to have dropped several degrees, and the cold air forced goosebumps all over her body.

She looked around, looking at those unkind eyes, smoothed the hair on her body, grabbed the corner of her old man's clothes and said: "Old man, now that my nephew is gone, we have also gone to the funeral, but we really can't feel sorry for our nephew. Don’t enter his house anymore, let’s go.”

The young girl also responded repeatedly: "Grandma, leave quickly, I don't want to be his slave."

As soon as the girl finished speaking, several people walked out of the crowd in despair.

When everyone saw them leaving, they all clapped and cheered.

Xi Sang asked someone to secretly give some reward money to the person who testified.Then he said to everyone: "Everything I said today is true. Anyone in the family who was brought out by my father and died on the battlefield can receive ten taels of silver from my house as long as they tell their names. Everyone." Tell each other.

Seeing everyone disperse happily, she felt a little better.She thought to herself: Finally she did something good for her father. I think her father must know about her.

I would also be very happy to do so.

The housekeeper came up and whispered to her: "Master, do you want me to kill them..." The housekeeper made a motion of slitting his neck.

"No need. These evil people will have their own troubles. Let them repay their grievances on their own. We don't need to interfere. They didn't get any benefits from today's incident, and I didn't lose anything. Dad, as a party involved, stayed. Their lives, let alone mine? What right do I have to take their lives? They are not evildoers, they are just normal people. They are just trying to survive, but they just use different methods. Besides, this is part of human nature. I can understand it, but that doesn't mean I can forgive it. But it doesn't mean that if I can't bear to see someone else, they will die. There is no such reason." Xisang said angrily.

When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately lowered his head and said: @The young master is saying that he is short-sighted. "

Xisang remembered the business: "By the way, I heard that after the coffin is placed in the funeral palace, the length of the funeral varies, ranging from three days to 30 days. After the death of the elder, the descendants must stay at home for 27 months. , during which communication and entertainment are stopped, and officials must also leave their jobs and go home to observe mourning to express their condolences to their respected relatives. Does this mean that I cannot go to school for the past two years? "

The butler nodded and said, "Yes, that's right."

Xisang had no choice but to say: "It seems that I can only practice at home. Bring me the roster that dad left before he left. On it are the names of the people he brought to the battlefield. If anyone wants to come to collect money, Just bring them here, and I will pay them personally. Prepare more seeds and grains in the warehouse. If some families are in extreme difficulty, I will help them give them a bag. You can buy some more skilled people. For example, for blacksmithing, weaving, making food, embroidery, etc., one person for each is enough. If I meet someone who is good and skillful, I will have someone teach them the skills so that they have the foundation to live and work. Then you can give them the door There is a notice posted: It says that those who receive it at noon every day will bring their household registration and start receiving it until unitary time in the afternoon. Only ten people are allowed to enter every day. Each person has one copy, and no more can be received. If there is a fight over the distributed items. , once discovered, the perpetrator will be thrown into prison and will not be able to come out for ten years.”

"Little master, why don't you distribute the money directly according to the list of those who have passed away? This is what the master did in the past."

"This is something she knows how to strive for in everything. If I give it to her, she will be grateful. She knows that this money is hard-earned and will cherish it even more. For those people who are too lazy to take it, if I give him tens of thousands of money, maybe he will do some evil things. Bad things come. Besides, dad just loses money every time, which can't solve any problem. As the saying goes: It's better to teach people how to fish than to teach them how to fish. This money is just the fish in the net. Only by teaching people how to make money can they give birth to more Come here. This man has something to do, and with hope in his life, the royal city will be less troubled."

"Well said!" A deep middle-aged male voice came from behind.

But I saw that the man was wearing a bright yellow robe, and the prime minister always accompanied him.

Judging by his attire, he must be King Nie.Xisang immediately knelt down and shouted: "Kowtow to the king, long live the king!"

Several people were silent for a while, and then they all snickered.

King Nie knew that he should not joke about funerals, so he suppressed a smile and said: "You are right to kowtow to the king, but what does this long live long live long live mean?"

She had forgotten that this was something that only existed in the Qing Dynasty. It was only shown in TV dramas, so she shouted out, not wanting to get into trouble.

She immediately said in a hurry: "Of course I wish the king to be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."

King Nie then pursed his lips, suppressing a smile and said: "Okay! Okay! Okay!" He said three good words in a row.
