The next day Jiang Ting got up early to go out and found many people standing in the corridor.

Most of the grooms in the racecourse have chosen to return home, and they are queuing up to receive the severance pay promised by Du Yanshan.

Du Yanshan took out all his savings, and he had already made this plan before leaving Yuanjing.

He is clean and honest, except for the mansion of the national teacher in Yuanjing City and some items bestowed by the former emperor, he has almost no other valuable things.Whether it is the new emperor or other ministers think so, as long as the National Teacher's Mansion is searched, Du Yanshan will have nothing.

But since Du Yanshan had that strange dream, he knew that he would be dismissed from office, so he secretly transferred part of his property.

After the National Teacher's Mansion was confiscated, he came to an unknown private house of his own, took away all the silver taels, and sold all the things that could be sold, and exchanged all of them for the most practical silver.

Now that it is distributed to the grooms, it can be regarded as an explanation to them.

In a blink of an eye, there were only six people left in the huge racecourse, and all the people in Jiang Ting's room stayed, plus Wang Shuang.

Du Yanshan looked at the few of them, nodded and said: "Okay, as long as some of you are willing to stay." He looked up at the gray sky, the snow finally stopped, and the sky has not yet cleared up .

"Dou Xue's body hasn't been buried yet?" he asked suddenly.Dou Xue is the name of Narui's dead horse, and the stallion is called Dou Shuang.

"Well, it's still in the racecourse, covered with straw." Jiang Ting replied, the grooms were busy collecting money, but forgot to deal with the corpse, "The little one immediately transported Dou Xue out to bury it."

"I'll go with you later, use it early to have the strength to work." Du Yanshan said, then turned and walked back to the room where he was temporarily staying. He had previously rejected Dong Guoji's room, which was different from his own. The boys spent the night together in a four-person room.

Now the two grooms who lived together have left, and the rest of the house has been vacated, so it is not a problem for one person to share one room.

The aunt made a pot of delicious vegetable porridge with some leftover ingredients from last night, and served a big bowl for each of them.

When Du Yanshan came to the kitchen, he had already changed into lighter clothes.

Jiang Ting was stunned for a moment, he was used to seeing Du Yanshan elegantly dressed in long gowns and long gowns, but this was the first time he saw him wearing short jackets.

Du Yanshan met Jiang Ting's gaze, and explained: "We're going to dig the soil together later, so it's more appropriate to change into this suit."

"Just leave the digging to the younger ones," Jiang Ting said hastily. If Du Yanshan wants to send Dou Xue off for the last time, he can just watch from the sidelines. It doesn't look like he has done rough work. of.

Du Yanshan stopped talking, picked up the porcelain bowl and started to drink porridge.

After breakfast, Jiang Ting found a wooden cart from the warehouse. An adult horse weighs about [-] to [-] kilograms, and several people need to carry it into the cart.

Seeing this, Du Yanshan also came forward to help, remembering that Dou Xue, who was still alive and kicking before he left, was already a stiff corpse when he met again, and couldn't help feeling sad.

Back then, when the first emperor gave him two Rui horses, he was so high-spirited, but such an emperor died within a few months after he left Yuanjing, and he couldn't even see him for the last time, just like this Dou Xue.

The crowd finally loaded Dou Xue's body onto the cart, Jiang Ting pulled out Yanmo who followed him back to the racecourse, fixed the shaft of the chariot to Yanmo's body, and pulled the cart out of the racecourse with the reins.

The two walked one after the other for about half an hour. Yesterday's heavy snow covered the ground with thick snow, and it was very difficult to walk.

"How about being buried here?" Du Yanshan said as he passed a pine forest.

"Well," Jiang Ting stopped and looked around. He had been to this pine forest before, and the environment was very quiet, so it was suitable to bury Dou Xue here.

Jiang Ting untied Yanmo's car shaft, found a position and tilted the car body, and Dou Xue's body slid from the car board into the snow.He picked up the shovel he brought with him and shoveled away the snow around Dou Xue bit by bit.

Du Yanshan immediately joined in. He took a shovel and plunged into the snowdrift, but he couldn't shovel it, so he had to ask Jiang Ting for help with his eyes.

"My lord, you shoveled too deeply," Jiang Ting couldn't help laughing, "Don't look at the snow as it seems to be quite light, the snow is packed more and more densely at the bottom, you take the shovel back and shovel shallower."

"Okay," Du Yanshan has never done such labor-intensive rough work, and even used a shovel for the first time. He imitated Jiang Ting's action to shovel snow. But he couldn't shovel at all, so he had to follow Jiang Ting's method, starting with a small shovel and a small shovel.

The two of them quickly shoveled an open space, and next they had to shovel away the dirt. According to the size of the horse, they had to shovel a hole nearly two feet deep.

Shoveling the soil was more laborious than shoveling the snow. After a while, Du Yanshan's face turned blue, but the movements in his hands became more and more violent.

After Jiang Ting noticed the abnormality, he quickly grabbed Du Yanshan's arm, snatched the shovel from the opponent's hand, and opened his palm to have a look.

Sure enough, a lot of blood blisters came out. Du Yanshan's hands were used to holding the smooth pen holder, and the palms were thin and tender, which could not withstand the long-term friction of the shovel handle.

"My lord, you can sit on the cart and rest for a while, and leave the rest of the work to me." Jiang Ting firmly grasped Du Yanshan's shovel with one hand, unwilling to let him take it away again .

"It's nothing... I can shovel for a while longer." Du Yanshan shook his head, stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the shovel, the shovel remained motionless in Jiang Ting's hand, he frowned and looked at Jiang Ting, who was also looking at him . "...Will you give it or not?"

"No!" Jiang Ting refused, "This is not what adults should do."

"It's ridiculous, it's not up to you to interfere with what I should do." Du Yanshan held the shovel with both hands, but still couldn't get the shovel back. He stared at Jiang Ting with a little regret. "release……"

"The little one just doesn't want to see adults torture him like this."

"...Jiang Ting, do you know your identity?" Du Yanshan's face was cold, as if a layer of frost had formed on his face, and there was a faint anger between his brows.

"The little one knows, the little one thinks that adults should cherish their bodies, not just for themselves..." Jiang Ting looked straight at Du Yanshan's angry face, "It's also for the sake of Shuo Guo, sir, you shouldn't give up on yourself, one day you will return will return to your place."

Du Yanshan sighed, and finally let go of his hands, the handle of the shovel was stained with a lot of blood from his hands.

He didn't know why he became like this, but he was depressed and uncomfortable, and he had accumulated too much depression.He wanted to vent, as if the pain in his body could relieve this depression.

Jiang Ting put the shovel aside, took Du Yanshan's arm and walked to the cart: "My lord, please sit down and rest for a while, I'll be fine soon."

"No need, I can just stand..." Du Yanshan's voice was a little hoarse, "Thank you for your hard work, I shouldn't ask you to come out to bury Douxue in such a heavy snow day."

Jiang Ting smiled and continued to shovel the soil.

He was afraid that if he waited too long, the injury on Du Yanshan's hand would be unbearably painful, so he dug a big hole as quickly as possible.He had exercised his physical strength while training the horses, so it was no problem digging such a pit, and then he slowly moved Dou Xue's body into the pit.

Du Yanshan wanted to help, but Jiang Ting sternly refused. There may be something dirty on the horse's body. Du Yanshan's hands are bleeding and should not be touched again.

It is much easier to cover the pit with soil. Jiang Ting piled the soil on the side into a small grave, which is very conspicuous in the white snow.

"Okay, let's go to the racecourse as soon as possible. Your injured wound needs to be bandaged, and the injury will heal slowly in winter." Jiang Ting patted the dirt on his hands and put the shovel on the cart.

When I turned my head to look at Du Yanshan, I found that Du Yanshan was standing quietly beside the tomb, his back looked very bleak.

Some disturbing things happened one after another, so I should do something to cheer up the atmosphere.

Jiang Ting remembered that before it snowed, he had done experiments on several pieces of land near the horse farm. Adding different substances had changed the properties of the soil. If the land here could be improved into a field where crops could be grown, their lives would be improved. Much better.

everything will get better.
