I Made 300000 a Year in Ancient Times
Chapter 27 Reading Letters & War
Seeing him touching his face, Qu Qing hurriedly stopped him, subconsciously said: "Don't touch it with your hands, there are a lot of bacteria on your hands."
"Bacteria?" Not only Hua Zizhou's eyes were confused, but several other people looked at him with incomprehensible eyes.
Only then did Qu Qing realize that they were ancient people, and after thinking for a while, he explained: "Your hands are very dirty. If you keep touching your face, the bad things on it will be transmitted to your face. Your face should be more carefully protected. .”
Speaking of this topic, he asked curiously: "How long has your face been like this?"
Hua Zizhou turned his face slightly and replied: "It's been about a year or two. I wasn't like this before, but I didn't know why it grew..."
Qu Qing felt that his mood was a little low, so she comforted: "It's okay, but it's just acne. I had it before, and most people will go through this period, so I have to insist on treatment, take good care of it, and it will be fine soon. Yes, it’s not a terminal illness.”
Jiang Liehu also interjected, "I've seen people grow older. Doesn't this mean that when they reach their age, they will naturally get better?"
"That's too careless, my mother... My mother told me since I was a child that the face is a person's appearance, so you must take good care of it."
Hua Zizhou didn't want to be treated, he bowed his head and said: "The doctor said it can be treated, but it needs a lot of money to drink medicine, so let's forget it..."
"How can this be left alone?" Qu Qing said to him seriously, "If you spend money, you can spend it, and save those unqualified people from attacking you with your appearance. Is there any doctor in the village who can see you?" ?”
In fact, in the few days since I came to this world, I occasionally met children playing wildly all over the mountains and plains on the road. When those children saw Huazizhou, they kept pointing at his appearance and calling him ugly. Whenever at this time, Huazizhou always He would follow behind him without saying a word, with his head down, not at all as fierce as he was beating people in the middle of the night that night, it looks quite pitiful, the kitten will cry every time he is angry, although Qu Qing will drive those children away , but in any case, I still feel a little uncomfortable.
Hua Zizhou didn't expect him to be very decisive, so he replied uncertainly: "Yes..."
"That's great. I'll go to the doctor and ask the doctor how much it will cost when I get back tonight." Qu Qing seemed to go as soon as he said he would.
Hua Zizhou was a little unsure, but seeing Qu Qing's appearance, he felt that Qu Qing was really willing to spend money for him.
Jiang Orion, who was on the side, heard their conversation, and said to Hua Zizhou jokingly: "Brother Qu Qing is really kind to you."
Hua Zizhou was a little shy, and glanced at Qu Qing quietly. When Qu Qing looked back at him, he quickly looked away again.
Jiang Oriehu looked at Huazizhou, recalled his terrifying appearance that night, and thought complicatedly in his heart: This person usually looks like an ordinary guy who is weak and has no offensive power, but he didn't expect that in private...
It has been a day, and he is still complicated, but in fact, thanks to Hua Zizhou, he knows what he should do.
This afternoon, for a while, Hua Zizhou was full of hope that his face would completely improve, and that Qu Qing would also like his appearance, but at the same time, he was afraid that there would be a lot of money for medicine, and what to do if his family couldn't afford it.
For Qu Qing, this is just a small episode, and the most important thing right now is to get the farming done.
After Jiang Liehu joined in, the efficiency of his work had doubled visibly to the naked eye. If things went well, he would be able to plant an acre of potatoes today.
A few people sweated for a while, and when they were tired and resting, they saw the village chief pulling a cow not far away, followed by the sound of a young man carrying a plow, and greeted them from a distance.
"Qu Qing, let me tell you that it's been three days since you, kid. Didn't you ask you to borrow the plow? If you don't come, I asked my son to bring it to your house."
Qu Qing was flattered and said: "Village Chief, you are too polite. I thought your house might not be used up yet, so I planned to ask tomorrow."
"It's okay. I brought it to you today. You can use it. By the way, you can plow another acre of your family's land." Guo Niu was tied to the tree first, and Qu Qing was pulled aside alone.
"Actually, I'm here today not only to deliver the cows, but also to ask for your help."
Qu Qing thought to himself, no wonder the village head is so enthusiastic, but from this point of view, I am afraid that this job is not small, but he probably won't be able to refuse it, because he really needs a cow too much: "Village head, you are really too polite. , if there is anything I can do to help you, just ask."
"It's like this," the village head took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Qu Qing, "This is a letter from my eldest son who has served in the military for 20 years. In the past, I would have to walk all day when he sent a letter. I went to the town overnight to ask my husband to know what was written in the letter, but now there is a literate you in the village, so I come to ask you, which saves me a day and a night of effort, and also helps you by the way , isn’t it the best of both worlds.”
Qu Qing thought that the village chief was too good at talking, no wonder he was able to stand out as the village chief in this village. After saying yes, he typed the letter and read it. The village chief looked at him eagerly: "What is written in the letter?"
After reading it, Qu Qing said with a smile: "He said in the letter that the war is completely over. If all goes well, he will be back in two months. Don't worry."
The village chief took out his pipe, rolled it with dry tobacco, lit it with a fire pocket and took a puff vigorously, saying three good things in succession: "It's good that people can come back safe and sound, thank you, Qu Qing, this **** war!" It's finally over, it's over."
Qu Qing didn't know that there was a war here. In fact, he felt that war was something far away from him. However, judging from what the village chief said just now and the information he learned in the letter, it seems that the country where he lives in this world has already carried out a war. A war that lasted no less than 20 years, and Hua Zizhou's father seemed to have died in battle, but other than that, he didn't understand it at all.
The village head looked a little sad, Qu Qing wanted to know more information, so he said: "Yes, this battle has been fought for too long, and I don't know how many people died. It's a big deal that your son is still alive." Blessed."
Next to him, Jiang Orion also said with emotion, "Yeah, it's been almost 30 years, and it's good to be alive."
The village chief exhaled a puff of blue smoke, which floated up slowly, blocking a wisp of smoke thinly in front of his eyes, making him look a lot older: "Yes, it is a great blessing to be alive, poor man Of my four sons, two died, and the dead two didn't even know where their bones were buried, or whether they were properly buried, or whether their bones were eaten by wild animals..."
Having said that, he let out a long sigh, and wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve: "Oh, even if it's me, it's already considered good, at least I have two more, and there are some families in the village where all the males die. Yes, that is miserable."
Qu Qing didn't expect such a tragedy, he hesitated and asked, "Did a lot of people die in our village?"
"Of course, at least half of the males are dead, Hua Gouer... Ah, now it's time to call Hua Zizhou, Hua Zizhou's father, when they were conscripted, the eldest son of their family was only ten years old , the youngest one was still breastfeeding, Hua Zizhou didn’t even know how to walk at the time, just like that, he was gone, and three months later, the government sent a piece of clothing back,
The whole family relied on his mother alone to pull seven or eight people. She was so tired that she vomited blood and dared not stop working for a day.Not only his family, but which other family has not received the dead man's clothes from the government?In fact, in the entire village, the only family in which no one died on the battlefield is yours, Qu Qing, but your father also spent a lot of money to get through the relationship.Now the rest of the village are either old, weak, sick and disabled women like me, or children with bare buttocks back then. "
After Qu Qing finished listening, the expression on Qu Qing's face was complicated and surprised. He didn't expect the village to be so miserable, and when he saw Hua Zizhou's mother for the first time, he simply thought that she was a very heartless woman. , but I didn't expect her to be so bitter.
When Hua Zizhou heard this, he who had been silent all the time asked in surprise, "When did my mother vomit blood? Why didn't I know?"
In fact, according to the custom, when the men are talking, the family members have no right to intervene, but at this time the village chief didn't care about anything: "She is hiding, how dare I let you little ones know, I will see it with my own eyes." Once, that was a few years ago."
Hua Zizhou remained silent for a long time after listening to it. He originally blamed his mother for being cruel, but now that he heard his mother's life was so bitter, the resentment in his heart dissipated by half, and the other five points were still chilling. look.
The village head continued: "Fortunately, the war ended five years ago. My eldest son and the others just followed to guard the border. Otherwise, if the fighting continues, the group of children who have just grown up in our village will probably die. , Alas, I chatted for a long time before I knew it, I will go home first and tell my wife the good news about the eldest son, I will keep the younger son here to help you, so you don’t know how to use a plow.”
Qu Qing quickly sent him away.
After coming back, we got to know each other initially, and then started to work.
The youngest son of the village chief seemed to be fifteen or sixteen years old. When Qu Qing asked his name, he smiled brightly and replied in a voice that was in the stage of changing his voice: "You can just call me the youngest, it's like this in my family. It’s called, I’m not yet an adult, I didn’t have an official name, my father said, after a while, ask a gentleman to give me a name.”
After getting in touch with him, Qu Qing found that he was a very sunny child, and he was also good at work, no worse than adults like them. After a while, he suddenly asked Hua Zizhou: "His new name sounds very nice, Brother Qu Qing, did you give it to him?"
Not far away, the little cat heard Zizhou's name was nice, but he didn't hear himself. He stood up while squatting on the ground playing in the mud, and said carefully with his hands in the air: "Of course, my father named him." The name is the best, Dad’s name is nice, and the name Dad gave me is even better! My name is Qu Xin! Honest letter!”
The youngest looked at the cat with different eyes in surprise. He had only heard that his eyes were different before, but this was the first time he saw it with his own eyes. It was really weird, and it was also the first time he heard his voice , Seeing Qu Qing and the others around him treat this child as ordinary, he didn't know whether he should talk to him for a while, but looking at Qu Qing, he felt that it would be impolite to ignore this child, so he Said: "It's really nice, and I hope to have such a nice name."
"Well, you have vision, but my father has to think carefully about asking my father to name him. After all, my father is the only literate person in the village." The little him said proudly with his head raised, and turned around. Went to play their cooking game with Jiang Zhu again.
That's right, little Qu Qing has been nurtured by the villagers, loved by Qu Qing, and educated by Hua Zizhou these days. Although he doesn't know what literacy is, he can already fully understand that his father is a very powerful and talented person. He is a respected person, and as his father's only son, he feels that he also needs to be respected by others, so he should hold his head high and behave in an upright manner.
Yes, he swelled up.
Qu Qing and Hua Zizhou were immediately taken aback by his unexpected little adult remarks. In front of outsiders, Mao'er has always been afraid to see people and dare not speak. At first, people thought it was his nature. Thinking that in just a few days, he dared to speak to outsiders with confidence, and even said the same words as adults. Now that I think about it, the second time I saw this child, I felt that this child was very good at talking. I am afraid this is his true identity. character.
After being surprised, Qu Qing laughed and picked up the cat and kissed his face, then rubbed his face vigorously: "Little cat, you are so cute, how can you be so cute!"
The others couldn't help but laugh a little too, the youngest couldn't figure out why, but he laughed too.
Although life is sometimes bitter, it always brings happiness to people inadvertently. Qu Qing feels that having such a lovely child can heal the tiredness of the body and mind, and renew the courage of the people. To meet a new day.
He wondered if his mother had the same thoughts when she took him with her back then.
"Bacteria?" Not only Hua Zizhou's eyes were confused, but several other people looked at him with incomprehensible eyes.
Only then did Qu Qing realize that they were ancient people, and after thinking for a while, he explained: "Your hands are very dirty. If you keep touching your face, the bad things on it will be transmitted to your face. Your face should be more carefully protected. .”

Qu Qing felt that his mood was a little low, so she comforted: "It's okay, but it's just acne. I had it before, and most people will go through this period, so I have to insist on treatment, take good care of it, and it will be fine soon. Yes, it’s not a terminal illness.”

"That's too careless, my mother... My mother told me since I was a child that the face is a person's appearance, so you must take good care of it."
