An old lady's life

Chapter 126 Weather Changes

Jia She summoned Lao Zhou to arrange things, and wandered around the room, thinking for a long time but couldn't think of a reason. Jia Lian came back from the garden, climbed over the threshold with small hands and feet, and squeezed into his father's arms.

"Daddy, hug. Pee." He grabbed his father's trouser leg with one hand, and pulled his own trouser waist with the other.

Jia She's expression changed immediately, and he hurriedly carried him to Gong's room, complaining as he walked, "My little ancestor, to torment your father, I owe you in my previous life."

Jia Lian giggled, still trying to take off her pants.

Jia Amnesty smiled helplessly, every time this kid peed, if he saw him, he must let him take him, of course, if he didn't see it, forget it.

Many times, Jia Amnesty took off his son's trousers, took out the little bug between his legs, helped him hold the little bug, and flicked: "Hurry up, don't pee on the pants, or your mother will urinate." will be angry."

As soon as Jia Lian rolled his eyes, he immediately became obedient, but just after peeing, he touched his little butt again, "Smelly."

Jia She's face turned dark, so he had to pick him up again, pulled down his whole trousers, and left his bare buttocks facing the Gong barrel, and after a while, a bad smell came over him.

Jia Amnesty's whole face was wrinkled into a ball, as expected this son is a debt collector sent by heaven.

When the father and son came out of Gong's room, Jia Amnesty sniffed his clothes and felt a stench all over his body. He put Jia Lian on the ground and said, "Go and find the naughty brothers."

He told the nanny and the maids to take good care of Jia Lian. He felt depressed and took off his coat as he walked. He was not afraid of the cold, so he went to the inner room to find clothes and change by himself.

Simply put, Zhang's clothes are well organized, and the underwear and jacket are clearly separated. He changed his whole body.When she came out, Mrs. Zhang happened to come in with Jia Lian in her arms. She had already heard what the maid said, and she just thought it was funny. Doesn't it bother the master to do this every time?

Seeing his father, Jia Lian stretched out his hand again: "Daddy hug!"

Mrs. Zhang put her youngest son into Jia She's arms, and said amusedly: "Master, you are too particular about this, but it's just Lian'er who stinks, how can it be so stinky?"

Jia Amnesty hugged Jia Lian and strode outside, "I'm going to Ningfu to visit my uncle."

Mrs. Zhang didn't think much about it. Since he spent more time at home, he would go to Ningfu to visit his uncle basically every day, but Mrs. Zhang forgot that Jia She had already visited once in the morning.

It's almost four o'clock at Shen Shi, the yamen is about to get off work, and Jia Jing is coming back soon.

Jia Amnesty carried Jia Lian to Ningfu, and on the way to Conglutang, he saw Jia Zhen teasing with his concubine, he couldn't help but stop, before he could respond, Jia Lian had already opened his mouth.

"Brother Jane."

Jia Zhen was startled, and hurriedly waved away the two concubines, turned around the Moon Gate and came out, smiling, "Uncle Pardon, Lian'er."

After finishing speaking, he picked up Jia Lian and threw it high, Jia Amnesty hurriedly held it down: "Your little arm is not strong, so be careful not to drop Lian'er."

Jia Lian hugged her father's neck, stretched out her hand and slapped Jia Zhen's face, Jia Zhen said with a sullen face, "Lian'er, Brother Zhen didn't mess with you, did he? Every time I see your brother, I hug you, that's good for you." , don’t bully me every time.”

Jia Lian clapped her hands and giggled non-stop, her little head arching back and forth on her father's neck.

When they arrived at Conglvtang, his uncle was still sleeping, so Jia Amnesty carried his son and Jia Zhen out of Conglvtang and wandered around the courtyard of Ningfu.

"Why are you at home today? Didn't you go to Guiyuan Bookstore with your second uncle?" Jia Amnesty was just looking for something to say, he wanted to wait for Jia Jing to come back.

Jia Zhen was a little discouraged immediately, "The library is full of students reading books, so what's the matter if I go, it's boring."

Jia Amnesty controlled his restless son, and glared at Jia Zhen, "Did you understand the Dafeng Law? Don't get twenty or thirty points in the next exam. It's been more than a year. If you return this score, I will feel ashamed."

Okay, Jia Zhen's face was full of embarrassment.

Jia Amnesty is very confident, because after he perseveres and meticulously reads the Dafeng regulations, he can already pass the exam now.

Jia Zhen wanted to refute, but she lacked confidence.

Two quarters of an hour before Youshi, Jia Jing came back, and he was the one Jia Amnesty was waiting for, and he put Jia Lian into Jia Zhen's arms, "Zhen'er takes good care of Lian'er."

Jia Lian glared at Jia Zhen angrily, and patted Jia Zhen's shoulder with both hands. Although he was small and weak, it didn't mean he didn't feel pain!

Jia Jing thought that Jia She was looking for him for something, but it turned out that Jia She came to him to complain about his grievances. Seeing his filial piety, he still doesn't know what he can do in the future. Could it be that he just got a title on his head?

"Cousin, tell me about the officialdom. No matter how you become a filial piety, you have to find an official position. I will understand it first and make preparations." Jia She pretended to know nothing about the officialdom and came to Jia. I would like to ask, "Especially in the relationship between colleagues, will people like me who are not born in the imperial examination be discriminated against and treated coldly by others?"

Jia Jing has a lot of experience. Since he was promoted the year before last, the relationship between him and his colleagues has improved quite a lot. Over the past year, he has made some like-minded confidants.

"It is certain to be treated coldly, but don't be discouraged. When I first became an official, I was young and vigorous, and I always did things according to my preferences. I was not close to my colleagues, and they were afraid that I was from the Ning Mansion, so they dared not offend me. , I had no choice but to ignore me." Jia Jing let out a deep breath, he was in a bad mood at that time, and almost resigned from office, but he was afraid of his father's prestige, so he persevered.

Jia She thought to himself, the cousin and the second child are very similar at some point, just a nerd, not good at communication, it is not surprising that he is ignored, but it is absolutely impossible for him to be as miserable as his cousin.

It may be that someone used a tree hole, and Jia Jing suddenly found the desire/desire to talk, and explained all aspects of his career as an official for more than ten years.

Finally, until now, Jia Jing’s expression was very moved. When Jia Amnesty heard the names of many officials from him, he suppressed his anxiety and asked a random person first, and then asked Ming Zhi .

"Cousin, who is Zhizhi? This name is really good, and the word Ming Hongzhi is also good, with lofty ambitions."

Jia Jing couldn't help laughing: "Hongzhi is very good at poetry, which is beyond my reach. Staying with him always feels like a spring breeze."

"It seems that I will go to places like teahouses and restaurants to stay longer in the future, and maybe I can make a few bosom friends." Jia Amnesty said with a very envious face.

Jia Jing said some more words, and the latter was no longer related to wisdom. Jia Amnesty listened patiently until he heard Jia Lian's cry.

Jia She said helplessly: "Cousin, I'm sorry, I'm afraid Lian'er is looking for his mother, so I'll go back first, and we'll have a good reunion on your holiday."

In fact, he really wanted to remind his cousin to be careful of that wise man, but firstly, Lao Zhou and the others have not found out where wise man is from, and secondly, he is afraid that if he tells it, the cousin will not be happy, after all, he has to find someone to follow him. He investigates him, empathizes with him and gets annoyed.

The spring breeze in February is like scissors. This year, the spring breeze in February really hurts people like scissors, because since the tenth day of the first lunar month, there has been no rain in the sky for a month.

It's time for busy farming. If it doesn't rain, how do you plant seedlings in the fields?If it doesn't rain until April, this year's crops will be useless.

Later, Jia Amnesty was assigned by Hongye to inspect the Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing to see how the Zhuangzi was doing during this period of time. Can the fields be sown normally?

Jia Zheng is studying with all his heart and spends every day in the library. Of course, combining work and rest, Hongye doesn't want him to push himself too hard, so Jia Zheng is given a day off every ten days. You can do whatever you want, but you can't turn the pages of the book.

But during this break, Jia Zheng was sent to inspect Zhuangzi with his elder brother.In the past two years, he has not only read the Four Books and Five Classics, but also dabbled in books on farmland water conservancy. When he went to Zhuangzi, he talked with farmers, linking theory with practice. for the benefit.

The water level of the river bed is gradually decreasing. Everyone can see that the river water is decreasing. I didn't think about the problem of water storage before. After all, Zhuangzi is very close to the river, and the water in the fields is very convenient.

But now Jia She and Jia Zheng have to worry. The river is gone, what will happen to the crops on both sides of the river?On the contrary, some Zhuangzi who are far away from the river, because of limited paddy fields, most of them are mountain crops, use less water, and the drought climate may suffer the least damage.

At night, Jia She and the two returned to the mansion with heavy faces. Seeing them like this, Hongye knew that the weather had the greatest impact on Zhuangzi everywhere.Instruct the servant girl to serve the food, and wait until after the meal if you have anything to say.

After dinner, the two brothers alternately talked about the similarities and minor differences in Zhuangzi everywhere. Hongye couldn't predict the weather, so she should have learned numerology if she knew it.

I don't know if it's too late now?Of course it was too late, she was not a self-taught person, no one taught her without practical experience, would she dare to make a decision easily?

"Tomorrow, the second child will rest for another day, and I will go to various villages with your elder brother. The weather is not right. Tell them to hide as much food as they can. The most important thing is to hide and not attract people's attention."

Jia She hesitated for a moment, "What if this year is a bumper harvest?"

Hong Ye raised her eyebrows: "Then let's buy their old rice when the autumn harvest is good." Anyway, it's only one more year, as long as it's not rotten rice, old rice can be sold.

The two brothers nodded, Zhang Shi and Wang Shi's heart trembled, and they planned to order their respective Zhuangzi to do the same, and be careful to sail for thousands of years.

Hongye pondered for a while, there are signs of drought this year, so I don't know if Emperor Changping is prepared, is Bieqin Tianjian really a display?In fact, as early as after the Lantern Festival, Qin Tianjian had sent a memorial to Emperor Changping to report the recent weather conditions.As early as years ago, Qin Tianjian would do divination in advance to predict the fortune of the new year.

The result of Qin Tianjian is not bad. Although there is less rain in most places this year, which affects the growth of crops in the fields, when it comes to autumn harvest, at most the production will be reduced, and the harvest will not be complete.However, some places were the hardest-hit areas, and Qin Tianjian couldn't identify a certain area, so Emperor Changping had secretly summoned a group of important officials to discuss this matter.

Because of this matter, King Su Jun originally planned to punish the crown prince, and he also slowed down, so don't cause trouble by not eating mutton.

Dealing with the land all their lives, farmers are more vigilant than Jia She and others. Many people have been hiding grain in secret. The household is handled by the steward or the head of the village.

Jia Zheng followed suit for another three days, and he returned to the library to read after he had visited all the Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing and the message was in place.

He didn't show up for five days. As soon as Jia Zheng appeared, he was surrounded by everyone.

After two years of development in Guiyuan Library, there are now an average of about 100 students who live in the library and read books every day. Sometimes there are more than 80 students, and sometimes there are [-] to [-] students.

In the beginning, from a few taels of profit per month to 800 taels per month now, there will be a total profit of 6000 taels in the past two years. According to this development momentum, within two years, the initial money spent on Guiyuanshulou Silver taels will be earned back.

The development of the bookstore is quite satisfactory, and Jia Zheng is in an extraordinary period, so Hongye did not put additional pressure on Jia Zheng, but after the scientific examination, Hongye will definitely arrange tasks for Jia Zheng. looming problem.

The students who read books in the library had contacts with Jia Zheng, but Jia Zheng already had the ability to distinguish and respond, so he would not offend people easily.

Jia Zheng didn't say what the weather outside was like in front of these students. Seeing them like this, they didn't notice the change of climate.But at noon, Jia Zheng had lunch with Zhou He and took the opportunity to talk to him about this issue.

Zhou He brought his wife and children to Beijing, and the family lived in a rented house. He copied books or sold some calligraphy and paintings to earn money every day. His wife Luo Shi was a female celebrity. Life is going well.

"Thank you Cun Zhou for your kindness." Zhou He thought in his heart that he really didn't pay attention to the climate issue when he lived in the city, and he must inquire carefully when he goes back.In the past, Zhou He would stay in the library until Xu Shizheng, but this evening he went home first.

However, the weather is really changeable. On the last day of February, there was a strong wind at night, and it rained all night, but it cleared up at dawn.

Just this little rainwater has not soaked the soil yet, and the flowers, plants and trees are full at once, but what is the use?As soon as the sun came out, the water vapor evaporated, and it was still so hot.

Hongye pondered that the weather is only in March, and according to the past, it must be as hot as May.

At night, Hongye and Wormwood met at Lin’s house. The two visited Lin’s garden at night, and finally stopped in Taoyuan. In the relatively abundant spiritual energy, everything in the Taoyuan is as usual. There are large and small flower buds hanging on the branches, and it seems that they will bloom soon.

However, the Lin Family and Rong Mansion are different, and other places are not so lucky. Even the official peach gardens in Beijing and China are not short of water, but the quality of the buds is not as good as before.

The sky and the earth are pitch black, the moon is hidden in the thick clouds, and the gentle wind blows by, making people feel extremely refreshed.

Hongye didn't want to go back for the time being, she didn't sleep, she used it for cultivation at night, it was the same wherever she practiced, so they sat quietly under the peach tree, closed their eyes and immersed themselves in the wonderful feeling.

Around four o'clock, the red leaves came out of the buds, it was getting late, and it was time for her to go back.Her eyes circled in the space of the body, and finally fell on the thick fog opposite the lotus pond. The Qiongtai Pavilion in the thick fog was faintly visible, and a simple gazebo flashed past. Hongye's suspicious eyes fell on her gazebo. , How does that flashing pavilion look so similar to my own octagonal pavilion?Can a mirage still reflect its own thing?

Before Ai Cao woke up, Hongye pushed her, and she immediately opened her eyes, "It's almost dawn, I'm going back."

Ai Cao nodded, did not stand up, and watched her leave. When the figure of red leaves was no longer visible, she closed her eyes again, and her consciousness returned to the main body space. She saw a mirage for the first time tonight, it flashed by, and she was puzzled, but after observing it for a long time, she couldn't find it, so she had to give up.

The next day, the weather was rare and gloomy, as if the sky was about to rain, but it was brewing until noon, and the rain did not fall, but the sun came out again.

In the middle of the afternoon, when Hongye took a lunch break, Jia She came running over in a hurry. Lao Zhou had just told him what happened, and after he heard about it, he couldn't sit still for the whole noon.

The wise man is indeed the prince, but his official position is not high, he is just an idle job in the yamen, and most of the time he is against Qingliu reciting poems, not to mention that he is quite talented in this area.Jia Jing is almost an elm bump, and he has no talent in poetry, so he really has a purpose in getting close to Jia Jing.

Hongye was not surprised. The reason why Lao Zhou and the others took so long to confirm it was because Zhizhi would not meet the prince often, only twice a month at most. That time, everyone gathered at the prince's outer residence during the festive Chinese New Year, and they were bumped into by red leaves and wormwood.

Jia She counted with his fingers: "Mother, I'm pretty sure that Uncle didn't hand over his contacts in the army to his cousin, so what's the purpose of approaching him wisely? And thanks to Qi Jia, the Rongning and Ningfu's contacts in the army A lot of contacts have already taken refuge in them, isn't this superfluous? Could it be that the uncle has something that the prince should taboo?"

Hong Ye shook her head, she had already thought about it, could it be that Zhizhi and Jia Jing met by chance, but after meeting, Jia Jing still got on the thief ship and couldn't get off?

"Let's look at it first, Mr. Ming is so low-key, others don't know that he is the prince's person, it may not be dangerous for your cousin to contact him." Sometimes simple things can make people complicated, and Hongye doesn't know the truth associated.

Jia Amnesty nodded solemnly, he will make people continue to pay attention.
