Ding Tian's Ancient Life

However, the two of them chatted until midnight, and after a few trips to the hut, they became hungry, lifted the lid of the pot again, and ate meat and bones from it.

At that time, the lamb scorpions were more delicious, and the stewed radishes were crystal clear. The most important thing was that there were elm lumps burning in the stove, and the pot was always warm, not cold.

After a hearty meal, people became more energetic. The two of them saw that it was dawn, and washed their faces with cold water. Ding Tian had a ten-day rest today, so he didn't have to go to the Yamen. He planned to take Ding Mo to the street to buy some things. He took it back.

"I have to buy some that are not available in the county." Ding Tian stayed up all night, but he was not sleepy at all.

Probably too happy?

After coming here, the Ding family is his concern, and the Ding family village is his root.

"Yes, yes, this time, when I go back this time, I have to brag to my family that I have come to Fucheng!" Ding Mo looked like he had never seen the world.

That's right, it's the first time for a young man to be so far away from home. If the caravan was not the well-known Lin family caravan, he wouldn't have followed him.

Come.

Ding Tian wandered outside with Ding Mo for a day, bought three carts of gifts, and sent Ding Mo to the shop where the caravan was stationed, entrusting them to take Ding Mo back.

One car is for Uncle Hu's family, and it contains mostly children's supplies and some supplements.

The two cars are for the two uncles, one car for each person, no more, no less.

"Don't worry about that. We all know that the master has also ordered that he will take good care of Brother Mo." The shopkeeper of the caravan had a very cheerful attitude.

As soon as Ding Tian returned home, he saw a carriage parked in front of his house, and Wang Fugui got out of the carriage.

"Brother Fugui?" There were no guards following, only eight accompanying health servants.

"This is a mooncake for your family members. I asked them to follow the caravan to your house to have a look, and I happened to escort that clan brother of yours back." Wang Fugui said with his nostrils turned upside down, "My lord ate two big bowls of rice last night!"

Ding Tian looked at him expectantly: "Does that mean I don't have to be a chef anymore?"

"You!" Wang Fugui said. "Come to your house for dinner tonight."

Then he left, two healthy servants followed him, and six healthy servants stayed to watch Ding Tian.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the caravan." Ding Tian sent the contents of the carriage and six healthy servants to the caravan station. After meeting Ding Mo, he hurried back.

Knowing that he offended someone yesterday, Ding Tian hurriedly made a big pot of harvest. The white radish, sheep and scorpion were all eaten by Ma Liu and Mrs. Jin's family.

When Wang Zuo came, he found that everything was ready, he just had to wash his hands and eat.

Ding Tian graciously served him rice and took chopsticks: "Try it, I made a big harvest, this dish is only eaten in autumn, it is most suitable for the occasion

"

"Big Harvest?" Wang Zuo looked at the dishes and said, "I thought it was called chaos stewing."

Ding Tian was embarrassed: "Then it's called chaos stewing?"

"It's better to call it a big harvest, it's good." Wang Zuo took two bites with chopsticks: "This year is indeed a bumper harvest year."

Ding Tian saw that he was eating, and started to eat himself, and chatted with him about family affairs: "It has been almost a year since I left, and the family's land is entrusted to two uncles to take care of it. I will go back after the New Year Let's see."

It is impossible not to go back for a year, Ding Tian did not go back during the busy farming holiday is already very good.

Who loves to spend Chinese New Year here?

Alone, alone.

"Hmm..." Wang Zuo nodded thoughtfully.

Before going on business the next day, Ding Tian sent Ding Mo away, and Ding Tian was relieved that someone followed him.

When we arrived at the Yamen and entered the office, Jin Buhuan came over: "Today is the day to change the dressing, do you want to go?"

This has been dragged on for almost half a month, too long, and was delayed by the autumn harvest.

"Go!" Ding Tian hurriedly said, "Why don't you go?"

"Then let's go!" Jin Buhuan turned and walked out.

"Is his wound healed?" Ding Tian followed him, "It's been so long, no matter how bad it is, I doubt your medical skills.

"

"His injury is almost healed, but the luteal bone of the shoulder seems to be injured too badly and has not healed yet.

There is a scar, as long as the scab falls off, it's over. " Jin Buhuan said: "The body is not very good, but you have replenished it with soup and water for half a month. . Ding Tian reminded him: "What's going on for a long time?"Isn't he about to be beheaded by Qiu Houwen?Now Mr. Fu Zun is pressing the case and has not reported it yet, but it will be soon. "

"Oh?" Jin Buhuan really didn't expect this, but he said: "If this year is late, can we cut it next year?" In short, a year to live is a year.

"There is still such an operation?" Ding Tian was really surprised: "Pose up."

"What kind of posture are you raising?" Jin Buchang gave him a blank look: "I heard from my deceased father that some people in Beijing committed the crime of beheading and didn't want to die. What should I do? Just press down like this, After a year has passed, and when the amnesty is met, you will be able to leave the prison cell."

Ding Tian was immediately unhappy: "Is this okay?"

"The money given a year is quite a lot. In the end, people will come out alive after all, isn't that enough?" Jin Buhuan said: "You have never seen a real big prison, where hundreds of prisoners are held, and the money is too much every year. , when you encounter amnesty, you can make a lot of money."

"Didn't they all be released? If they were all released, they must all be gone. The prison cells are the ones who lost, right?" Ding Tian didn't understand.

"Amnesty to the world, report the roster of pardoned prisoners, are you so stupid as a prisoner? If you don't give enough money, and don't report your name, when the time comes...they get out of the prison, and you are still squatting in it." Jin Buhuan explained to him: "Especially the criminals, they are all officials, their brains are easy to use, and their families are rich. After ten or eight years, they go out. Although they are not officials anymore, they go back. It is still possible to become a rich man in the future..."

Ding Tian once again felt the bad atmosphere of "feudal society".

When the two of them arrived at the door of the cell, they stopped talking about this matter, but looked at Yun Huaqing seriously. This man had gotten fatter, and his complexion had improved a lot. He was no longer as pale as a dead person.

Probably because he was well taken care of, there is no peculiar smell on his body, and his hair can be combed into a small pull, because it grows out after being shaved, a bit like shawl hair, if he is not wearing ancient costumes, he will be like the Beatles It's like that.

"Is the injury healed?" Ding Tian asked.

At first I didn't expect him to reply, but who knew that Yun Huaqing actually answered Ding Tian's question: "It's almost alright, there are only two places that are still itchy, and they are big wounds that are difficult to heal."

"When flesh grows, it's itchy, bear with it." Jin Buhuan changed the medicine for him: "Now the medicine is changed every two days, the flesh has grown, the blood is gone, the blood has drained clean, and it will heal soon , you can eat some fish these two days, but you still have to avoid it.”

Ding Tian saw that he was willing to speak, so he said, "Why don't you go to the talking room for a chat? It's a cool autumn outside, why don't you take a walk? You're bored here all day, and good people are bored too."

Go to the chat room, there is a good atmosphere, it's better than chatting in a cell.

Yun Huaqing didn't know where the interrogation room was. He was taken aback when he heard the words, and his face turned pale because he thought of the "torture room"

However, since Ding Tian said, if he doesn't go, he has to go!

Because Jin Buhuan couldn't wait any longer, he left with the medicine box in his hands, without anyone closing the cell door: "Hurry up."

Yun Huaqing was actually afraid in his heart, but more numb, was he being punished?

He thought that they treated him for the sake of his well-being... Was it because he was about to be tortured in the end?

After walking out, he realized that the weather outside is really nice!

When he arrived at the conversation room, Yun Huaqing looked at the room in surprise: "Is this the conversation room?"

"Yes, sit down. The environment here is better and can make people relax." Ding Tian asked people to serve tea and water. It didn't look like treating a death row prisoner at all. On the contrary, it was like a gathering of friends, tasting tea, tasting snacks, and discussing knowledge. Stance.

This made Yun Huaqing relax. Jin Buhuan had already seen it, but he didn't say it. There is no harm without comparison.

"Sit down and talk, we're just chatting." Ding Tian sat on the chair and said relaxedly: "I, with Mr. Buchang, feel that this case is somewhat suspicious, which puzzles us both, can you tell us now? If you complain about injustice, Lord Fu Zun can do it for you

host. "

Jin Buhuan also said: "Master Fu Zun hasn't reported your file yet, but it will be soon. If you don't appeal for grievances, once you report it to the Ministry of Punishment, you will have no chance, unless you appeal for injustice on the execution ground.... "

But in that case, not only the county magistrate of Baiyun County will suffer, but even Du Zhifu will be blamed by his superiors, because your governance

There have been unjust, false and wrongly decided cases.

At that time, it is not a trouble, but a trouble.

Ding Tian also said: "Yes, you are also a scholar, not to mention that the other party is your fiancée, what are you afraid of? If there is anything wrong, tell me, let's work out a solution together."

Yun Huaqing was silent, and looked down at the big tea bowl in his hand. After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth: "I call Miss Cai's"

Chuner'. "As if it was a memory, he said with some pain: "Miss Cai's family calls me 'Yun Lang'... . "

Ding Tian and Jin Buhuan's eyes widened instantly.

The word "Lang" does not mean how high-end and elegant it is, only wives and wives can call it.

Actually not, even many brothel women like to use the word "Lang" as a suffix when they call their lovers.

Of course, it does not mean that this is a derogatory term.

The famous phrase "childhood sweethearts and bamboo horses" comes from "Lang rides a bamboo horse to make green plums around the bed".

The biggest peculiarity of this word is that it means that both men and women are in an equal capacity... to fall in love.

How strict was the defense of men and women in ancient times?

But where there is oppression, there is resistance!

The more restrained by etiquette, the more he wants to break free from resistance.

In the brothel, if it is not a couple who are in love with each other, the woman will mostly describe the other party as a benefactor, and call her uncle, certain master.

Only when you meet a confidant who "two hearts know each other" can you call him "Lang".

In addition, in dramas, after the young master and the young lady make a private appointment for life, they are often called "Chen Lang", "Zhang Lang" or "Li Lang".

what is this concept?

It's like the reform and opening up in later generations, Teresa Teng's songs have just entered the mainland, or, the movies of the capitalist world have just been introduced to the mainland, and people often call the man "dear" in the movies.

Ordinary women usually only dare to yell twice in a low voice after turning off the light and getting under the covers to cheer up the fun, and absolutely no one dares to yell in front of everyone.

Because that's really... too advanced, too fashionable, and too exciting!

As for girls' boudoir names, even my own family members seldom call them, and outsiders have no way of knowing them. They usually call them "Miss Cai". "Miss", "Miss" and so on.

Cai Chun'er called Yun Huaqing "Yun Lang", and Yun Huaqing called Ms. Cai "Chun'er". Just from the address, it can be heard that these two people are in love with each other, let alone they are unmarried couples. relation.

Sooner or later is a family!

And having such a title proves that the two are willing, how could Yun Huaqing kill someone?

Ding Tian looked at him: "It is said that Miss Cai was two months pregnant when she passed away? Could it be that you accidentally killed someone out of anger? After all, you were drinking..."

Jin Buhuan handed over a handkerchief in good time, and Yun Huaqing wiped away tears: "No, I didn't do it..."
