I, Seimei, can't be an audiophile

Aomae, like any woman in the Heian era, does not have a surname, only a first name.

On the day she was born, her mother was still farming in muddy water. A woman who suddenly gave birth was born in the field.

After leaving her, her name is derived from it.

The tenacious vitality of the working people can be glimpsed here. I am afraid that they are malnourished, illiterate, and vaguely become two kinds of creatures that are far from the upper class in all aspects. If they want to live, want to live better, This biological instinct is still there.

She looks far from the beauties in the mainstream society. The beauties popular in this era have a round face, which looks rich and graceful. Slenderness and emaciation can only prove that you are born in a humble background, malnourished, and unable to give birth to healthy offspring.

However, the upper-class nobles have the ways of the upper-class people, and the lower-class people also have the ways of the lower-class people.

Women with strength and physical strength who can provide labor are also sought after by the lower class. Marrying such a woman is equivalent to adding a labor force to the family, which is a more pragmatic view.

Qing Miao had already gone to the field when she was seven years old, and she has a lot of farming experience, similar to her age.

The men and women who count down the fields are always exposed to the wind, sun and rain, and their skin is dark and wrinkled, making them look extremely old.

But I don't know if it's because of her genes, or Qingmiao herself always loves to laugh, and has an optimistic and cheerful personality. Her wheat-colored skin only makes her look healthier and younger. People who know her can't help showing their faces when they see her.

"What a healthy kid."

They always say so.There is a kind of beauty, full of vitality and vitality, which transcends species and gender, and is a common beauty.

If the only trouble for the little girl is the mountain god that the local people believe in.Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to eat water, just like fishermen believe in sea gods, people who farm at the foot of the mountains also believe in mountain gods.

As far as Qingmiao is concerned, she feels that the villagers are a little unbelievable. Even if they really want to believe in gods, it is the rain and the warm sun that give life to the fields. Why don't they believe in the god of thunder and rain god Inari?

Because it is next to the mountain, should we believe in the mountain god?The mountain god should only care about the beasts in the mountains, not the fields, right?

So every time the villagers worshiped the mountain god, Qing Miao secretly thanked Inari God in his heart.she.

I privately believe that it is not the mountain god who bestows a good harvest on the fields.

Of course, these are just minor issues that are not worth mentioning.Qing Miao is 17 years old. In this age when people are engaged at the age of thirteen or fourteen and will have children at the age of fifteen or six, she is considered too late

marriage.

If her parents were both healthy, then it is estimated that she would have already had a suitable marriage.

It is a pity that her mother, like any woman in this era, died early due to childbirth and hard work.

Her father was also unable to go to the field due to rheumatism a few years ago, let alone worry about marrying her.

It's not that other families have never envied her as a strong laborer, but when they think of taking care of an old man who can't move, who is willing to shoulder such a burden?

The only good thing is that my father had a very good relationship with the village head when he was young, even in this situation.

However, under the favor of the village chief, no one in the village dared to go extinct.It is because of this that all kinds of rumors have been caused, and the villagers all suspect that she has sex with the village chief, so her marriage is even more distant.

Qing Miao is very optimistic. She feels that she is not as bad as her father, and she is in good health.

The greatest luck is to be able to keep the land of my own family. Through farming, I can not only fill my stomach, but also support my father with the money from selling grain. This is a good life that many people can only dream of!

Some rumors are nothing to her, and the only thing she feels sorry for is that the village chief's family was misunderstood because of her.

The reason is that she is a woman in charge of the family, and she will always be stared at for mistakes. If she were a man, no one would gossip about the current living conditions of their family.

Women in this era live too hard, but Qing Miao doesn't hate being a daughter.

When she was young, her father always sang out of tune songs, made up some lyrics randomly, and combed her hair while singing. She liked those songs, especially the line in the lyrics "My lovely and capable daughter, others are jealous I have to see my eyes are red', she also likes her hair, even if it hinders the farm work, she still keeps it long and takes care of it carefully.

Sometimes when I was working, I also imitated my father and made up some songs that only I could understand.

"Qingmiao! Are you still working?"

The neighbor's uncle greeted her, and Qing Miao raised her head and waved.

The uncle came over and looked at the land of her house, unable to hide the admiration in his eyes.

"It's really good, you, it's only been a few days, and more than half of it has been completed. If you need it, tell uncle at any time, and uncle will ask Xiao Liu to come and help you."

Qing Miao replied with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle! It's all right, it's almost over, there's no need to bother others."

Qing Miao is very grateful to the uncle for taking care of their family, but the uncle likes her so much that he wants to match his son to be with her.

The problem is, that kid grew up being held by her ears, and she still remembered the way he rubbed his nose, so she really didn't feel it.

The uncle nodded: "You are too polite. Oh, it's better for you to go home early recently. I heard that some time ago, there were monsters in the fishing village!"

Qing Miao was surprised: "Monster?"

Gossip is the best way to increase the distance between people, and the uncle shared the gossip he heard with her.

It turned out that the daughter of a fisherman's family was bewitched by a monster.The fishermen had no choice but to ask the onmyoji they knew to get rid of the demon. After the onmyoji came, he told the fishermen that it was the result of karma.

The fisherman killed several of the otter's children and his wife, so the otter confused his daughter for revenge.

It was finally heard that the woman was rescued, but the Onmyoji did not punish the otter monster because the fishermen were at fault first.

After hearing this story, Qing Miao felt a little indignant: "Then why don't you just take revenge on that fisherman, what does it have to do with his daughter? If we talk about karma, what the otter monster did to the fisherman's daughter should also get retribution!" "

Unable to connect, the uncle finally sighed: "Father pays the debt, there is no other way."

Qing Miao frowned, and didn't argue any more about it.She has been in society for a long time, you know.

When you have a disagreement with others, you don’t have to insist on arguing. Only those who want to hear what you say are interested in what you say. Most people only want to hear the approval of others, but they are not very interested in what you have to say.

The uncle left after chatting, but Qing Miao felt that for some reason, she felt cold all over.

Monsters, scary.Lord Onmyoji, even more terrifying.

How should I put it, the impartial image of the Onmyoji in the story, which does not favor human beings, endows

A certain eerie awe of the Onmyoji.

Go home early today.She couldn't help thinking this way.

After removing the remaining weeds, she saw the muddy water on the trouser legs, so she had to roll up the trousers to prevent the water from spreading along the trouser legs to the entire trousers.With the small half of her legs exposed, she finished the rest of the work.

Wiping off her sweat, Qing Miao was about to pack up her tools and leave. When she looked up, she happened to see a car parked on the road above. A gentleman in casual clothes stood there and looked towards her for an unknown amount of time. .

He said he was a nobleman because the other party's temperament was too obvious, whether it was the overly handsome appearance with fair skin that was as transparent as it was, or the extremely beautiful and elegant posture in every gesture.

It means that the other party is definitely not an ordinary nouveau riche, and must be a noble son from a big family. Qing Miao looked back at the other party without fear, and she asked suspiciously: "Excuse me, what's the matter with you, why are you staring at me?" legs?"

That's right, the elegant young master is staring at her legs!This behavior was extremely offensive and not elegant at all, and Qing Miao began to suspect that the other party was a swinger, or even a fake in the guise of a nobleman.

She couldn't help thinking of the stories about monsters that the uncle told before, and became more cautious.

These days, it's not easy for women to live. They have to guard against villains, bad guys, and monsters!

"Actually..." The gentleman patted the side of the axle of the car beside him, "I encountered a little problem, the car broke down, and the ox pulling the cart ran away in a fright. Although I asked my servant to go back to find someone, but Considering the long distance, it may take a long time. It's getting late now, and I'm wondering if it would be a bit abrupt to ask the girl to take me in for a night?"

Qing Miao was vigilant in her heart, but once she came here, it was not far from her home, and it was a place she was familiar with;

Secondly, she is indeed a kind girl. She heard that someone was in trouble, so she couldn't really stand by.

So she put away her things, walked up the low hillside, checked the car carefully, and found that there was nothing pulling the car, and the wooden bearing of the car was indeed broken.

Qing Miao was a little confused. She hadn't heard such a big movement before because she was too specialized.

Do you want to do farm work?

"My home is near here, and my father is at home. But the environment of my home is not very good. I will take you to the village to meet the village chief. He should have a more suitable place for you to stay."

The man hurriedly said: "Don't be so troublesome, maybe the servant will come back after finding someone halfway? If I run too far, the servant will not find me. It's better to wait nearby. It doesn't matter if you don't have a place to live, I just need One eaves and one wall, as long as they can shelter from the wind."

When the other party mentioned this, Qing Miao really couldn't refuse.There is a big gap between most of the nobles and the common people, and they even dislike the common people, but Qing Miao knows that there are also some nobles who walk among the common people, and it is not uncommon for them to occasionally stay at the common people's house during their travels.For these civilians, as.

It's too silly to send money to the door for extra money that falls from the sky.

As for the difference between men and women, as I said before, civilians and nobles are already very similar to two species.

It's a sad thing to say, but reality is harsh.There are many civilian women who want to escape their fate of suffering, and they will try their best to get close to the nobles when they have the opportunity. On the contrary, the nobles have to worry about whether their chastity will be in danger.

Especially for a noble young man like Chang, if something happens to him, it's hard to say who will suffer more.

Qing Miao nodded and agreed to the other party's accommodation, and said in a joking tone: "Then come with me, as long as you are not a monster or a master Onmyoji, I can take you in for a night, I hope you don't dislike the shabby residence."

The man's expression was a little subtle: "The monster can understand, what did the Onmyoji do wrong?"

Qing Miao roughly recounted the stories she had heard before, and finally concluded that Master Onmyoji treated him.

It is too far away and too scary for us mortals, and it is probably more deterrent than the nobles.

The man said sincerely: "You're right, it's scary, I'm just an ordinary person, not scary at all."

Qing Miao took it for granted: "Don't go out so late in the future, you may encounter some monsters and robbers, boys should be careful to protect themselves when they go out."

The man nodded: "Well, that's right."
