The sage cloud is silent. The vast majority of members of the Cheng family must disagree with this sentence. At least Cheng's mother and Cheng's father can't do it. They often quarrel while eating, and the reasons for arguing are mostly speechless.

    This day, the mother and son are choked up again because of the extensive development of family farming and the delicate operation. The origin of the topic is Cheng Cha, although she is purely filial when she talks about it, but how do you say it? , There is never a shortage of good people in this world who do bad things with good intentions.

    “…Tu Gaoshan has beautiful scenery, the sky is high and fresh, and it’s the first time I’ve seen my granddaughter. And it’s also close to the capital. Next time I go to Zhuangzi to check accounts, I’ll take my eldest mother there to play. Forget it." Cheng Cha smiled meekly.

    Mother Cheng, who was sitting high in the middle of the head, glanced at her son, and said quietly: "Alas, you face saints, horse racing horses, leave me alone as an old woman, lonely and pitiful!"

    Cheng Shi put down the lacquered wooden chopsticks and said loudly: "Didn't my mother say that we will plant seeds in spring, and aphids will breed, so you should stay to take care of the crops in the back garden? But mother, don't talk to me anymore. It’s like before, what to grow with a full stomach, stupid and rough, now we are no longer hungry! Look at the scallops, the courgette and white sam that was cultivated last time, delicate and delicate, crispy and refreshing! "

    He didn't want to say that the last time he distributed a few baskets of fresh courgettes and white wort made by his daughter to his colleagues, relatives and friends. The other party's surprised appearance made him feel that his family was richer. Dividing - off-season cultivation of fine fruit and vegetables, even ordinary noble families may not be able to get them out.

    "Shuzi! What are you talking about!" Mother Cheng was furious, "You say I can do it, but don't say my crops! Corn and wheat are sweeter than anyone else's!"

    "By the way, there is also the composting tank, smoke or not! You still remember the tank in the back mountain of your hometown. I told you several times not to bury it so low. Empty feet..."

    This is really a good topic when eating, Cheng Song and Cheng Shaogong snickered with their shoulders shaken and their heads lowered. on the case.

    Cheng Cha was terrified, and hurriedly said: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't bring up the words that upset the eldest mother..."

    "Oh, cousin, don't interrupt, it's none of your business. Father and mother are mother and son so... uh, so close! Didn't my mother and I quarrel before!" Shaoshang came from a commonplace background, and this kind of joyful and lively atmosphere is almost seamless.

    The Cheng family brothers secretly went to see their mother, only to see Mrs. Xiao caressing her forehead and sighing.

    The young merchant asked enthusiastically, "Father, did the eldest mother fall in later?"

     

    Cheng Shi hurried to protect the emperor: "Don't be so loud and timid, don't scare her!"

    "She's timid?" Mother Cheng pointed at Shaoshang and yelled at her son, "You've got fat in your eyes?!"

    "—Yonger!"

    Mrs. Xiao slapped the food table hard and shouted loudly, the whole family was stunned by her and forgot to fight for a while.

    "...Tell me, what have you seen or heard about Taixue today." Mrs. Xiao finished the second half with a pale face.

    Cheng Yong let out a sigh of relief, he thought what was wrong with himself, and said, "Back to mother, something really happened today, King Yong's family rebelled!"

      Conspiracy?"

    Cheng Yong cupped her hands and said, "Mother is right."

    "Fengyi County in Yongzhou, isn't that just separated from us by Hongnong County?" Cheng Song raised his head and recalled the topographic map.

    Mother Cheng was shocked: "What, are you going to hit the capital..." Her voice trembled, and she was about to get up.

    Cheng Cha hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her, and Shao Shang also came to help, smiling: "Mother, what are you afraid of, didn't you see the eldest brother sitting here in a good manner, if the matter was urgent, he would have In a panic, I came back to report!"

    Cheng Shi laughed and said, "We are so smart!" Then he turned his head and said, "I was about to say this. Feng Yi is not far from the capital, so I can't hide it. If mom hears something outside, don't be afraid or panic, it won't cause trouble!"

    "Father said yes!" Shaoshang said, "Didn't I meet my uncle and aunt again this time, and it disappeared in just a few days. I hang it up and hang it to dry, but my uncle won't let me see it!"

     

    Shao Shang shrank back sullenly, and she wanted to ask Mother Cheng if she fell into the dung tank.

    "My son, is this King Yong really impossible to fight? I heard that King Yong's family was an amazing family in the previous dynasty!" Mother Cheng was still worried, but she sat tremblingly down.

    Cheng Shi sneered, and said: "It's too great, and something happened later, and I was called emperor. No, I can't bear the honor of the past! As I said, wealth and honor are destined, Prince Yong and his son don't have that face!"

    "Father, can you also look at their faces?" Cheng Shaogong was interested, "Then tell your son how they face."

    "Let's go!" Cheng Shi glared at his son, and then said, "Don't worry, mom, it's all right! His Majesty has sent several passers-by to Fengyi County this morning. Oh, Ling Budo is also among them." When he said this, he glanced at his daughter carefully, but saw that there was no difference in her daughter's expression.

    Mrs. Xiao saw that her husband could not be relieved, so she had to add: "Jun and aunt, listen to me. At first, King Yong and his son saw that the situation was not right, and they surrendered to His Majesty. There is only one thing, what to say. "The homeland is hard to leave, and the tombs of the ancestors are located", so he refused to live in the capital like the rest of the people who came here. Your Majesty agreed to avoid a disaster of swords and soldiers. But you think, how wise our Majesty is, how can we not be at all? Don’t worry about it. Don’t worry, Jun-gu, His Majesty has gradually taken over King Yong’s military power and tax power over the past few years, and has set up several hoops around Fengyi County. It's the other way around!"

    Mr Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing these reasonable words.

    "...However," Mrs. Xiao looked at Shaoshang worriedly and asked her husband, "Will this matter interfere with the curl?"

    "Ah." Shao Shang nodded again and again as he was listening, but the topic suddenly turned to himself.

    —Like many young people who grew up in the comfortable and peaceful era, Shaoshang is not a very politically sensitive girl. Especially in a purely scientific research and technology major like her, whether the leader changes Fourier or Fourier, and whether Amei fights the "evil country with weapons of mass destruction" Kirchhoff's law will not change.

    Current affairs news has only two uses for her: when she is in the ideological and political exams, she is not good at answering questions about hot issues, and when the first batch of laboratory project funds is approved (directly determines the professor's mood).

    What does the father-son rebellion in the next county have to do with him?

    Seeing her daughter with a blank face, Mrs. Xiao sighed: "King Yong's surname is Xiao, and his heir is the one who married He Zhaojun."

    Shao Shang turned around in his head before he realized, "That's it... that Xiao Shizi?"

    Mrs. Xiao nodded, Cheng Song didn't know much about this kind of marriage, and quickly asked: "But mother, isn't General He guarding Feng Yi by order? …”

     

    "...Yeah, what does this have to do with me?" Shaoshang was still puzzled, "There are two ways to do this. Either General He is loyal to the country and fights to kill the rebel Yong Yong. Father and son, come back to receive the reward..."

     

    Cheng Shi said indifferently: "My son is right, it's your grandmother who is overly concerned."

    "No, there is a third way." Cheng Song smiled, "It was General He who was bewitched and paralyzed by his in-laws and failed to take precautions in time. If so, he will also be charged when he comes back. I can't tell, my father's opportunity to make meritorious deeds has come again!"

    The Shao Shang praised loudly: "Second brother, see you! ... But grandfather, don't go, and let others take the credit."

    The four laughed together. Mrs. Xiao looked at the four father and son with relatively smirks, and smiled bitterly. She looked up and saw the same worry in her eldest son Cheng Yong's eyes.

    …

    Facts have proved that it is not something ordinary people can do, because none of the expectations of the Cheng family at the dinner party came true. Just three days later, news came from the former convenience, saying that the rebellion of King Yong had been quelled.

    The Cheng brothers and sisters were all stunned. This time, Mother Cheng's worries disappeared, and she laughed loudly: "How powerful is King Yong's blowing, it seems that it is nothing more than that, the prefect of the county surnamed Fan at Azhi's place lasted for more than ten days."

    Two days later, Cheng Yong brought detailed news again.

    It turned out that in order to kill the rebels as soon as possible, all the adult sons of General He were killed in battle, and he himself died of serious injuries. He passed away on the way back to the capital. This time, even as dull as Mother Cheng, it doesn't feel good: "Ayong, is there anyone in the He family now?"

    "Yes. There is also the only daughter He Zhaojun and a youngest son who is only four years old." Cheng Yong's worried eyes turned to the young girl, "His Majesty has named the He family as An Chengjun, enjoy the soup Mu some, young son Xijue."

    Shao Shang sat silently by the window, a small ray of sunlight without temperature fell on her face, and it took a long time to say: "It's a blessing or a disaster, it's a disaster that can't be avoided."

      last words-

    "This minister is a wild and reckless man from the countryside. It is a lifelong blessing to be at the side of Your Majesty. Although there is no regret in death, I hope Your Majesty should not worry about it."

    "There is only a pair of weak daughters and young sons left under my knees. The daughter Zhaojun was originally engaged to Lou's son. Now Xiao Ni is either executed or captured. The previous marriage has been broken, and I hope to reconnect with Lou."

    When he heard the last words, the emperor burst into tears and mourned: "Heaven has lost one of my loyal ministers and good generals!" When he heard the second last words, the emperor stopped grief for a while, and everyone turned their attention to Lou Taipu.

    Ji Zun did not return to his own ranks, and continued to report: "The old minister sees General He's expression, and thinks that he does not know that the nephew of Mrs. Lou has engaged with the Cheng family, so this is the reason. Say it."

    Wan Songbai, who was also wiping tears, was shocked for a while, but now he finally recovered: "Exactly! General He is a reasonable person. If he knew about this, he would not..."

    "Ran—" Ji Zun's face was expressionless, and he did not look at the people with different expressions, "He is tragic and solemn, although the etiquette is inconsistent, but it can be sympathetic. Old minister, please Your Majesty to make a decision!"

    The emperor sat quietly on his head, the twelve jade beads under the Xuan crown shook gently, and the ministers could not see the monarch's expression.

    Lou Taipu was stunned and realized that what he said at this time was wrong.

    "What is the decision?!" Seeing that the situation was wrong, Wan Songbai hurriedly said loudly, "First, General He did not know that Lou's son was engaged before he died, and second, be a courtier and be loyal. The country is the duty, and it is unpleasant to say, can it be that as long as you have made merit, you can rely on it for retribution?!"

    Ji Zun said: "Master Wan is right. Your Majesty's reward is one thing, but robbing another family's marriage is another."

    General Wu stood up abruptly and said in a loud voice: "You can't say that! The He family is tragic, everyone is almost dead, can't there be mercy!"

    Ji Zun turned his head towards General Wu and said, "According to the general's intention, Your Majesty should order this matter to be fulfilled? The general can understand it, if this case is open, which one will it be in the future? If the casualties are more tragic, is it just relying on credit to seek things from other families, such as..."

    The old man with a half-haired beard suddenly pointed behind the person, pointing directly at the Queen's brother Xuanhou: "Like Xuanhou, when His Majesty gifted a mountain of origin as the ancestor of the Xuan family, who would have known this mountain? It was originally owned by the Zhen Clan in Xuzhou. At first, the Zhen Clan was the enemy, so that's all, but later the Zhen Clan led the crowd to vote. If the Zhen Clan's children make great contributions in the future, the mountain of Xuanhou's family will still not be returned. ?"

    General Wu was dumbfounded, and then retorted: "This, this father's tomb is a big one, and it can't be sent around. But this marriage, isn't the Lou Cheng family not married yet?"

    Ji Zun nodded: "That's what the general said. Now General He still has a young son. If someone fights for the country in the future until the sons are cut off and only one daughter is left, then can this daughter be allowed to The husband-in-law that he likes breaks off with his wife, and then remarrys. How should we grasp the proportions of this?"

    General Wu was completely misfired this time, and sat back in the ranks angrily.

    Just when Wan Songbai smiled and thought that the old man Ji was a friend, Ji Zun said again: "However, the He family is loyal and brave, and General He's last words should be followed."

    Wan Songbai opened his mouth wide and looked at the stubborn old man for a long time, and finally understood.

    —This kind of thing cannot be directly ordered by the emperor, otherwise it will become a routine, but the Lou Cheng family can break off their marriage on their own, and fulfill the "poor and loyal" He family.

    …

    After the court disbanded, Wan Songbai hurried to Cheng's house and told Cheng Shi, his righteous brother who didn't attend the small court meeting, and Mrs. Xiao one by one.

    Cheng Shi said displeased: "Isn't there any other way to reward heroes? You have to come and entertain us."

    Mrs. Xiao was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Lou Tai servant didn't say a word?"

    Wan Songbai wiped his sweat and nodded vigorously: "That old boy looks like he has cut his tongue!"

    Mrs. Xiao sneered at the corner of her mouth: "What are we in a hurry, the root of this matter lies in the Lou family. Just wait and see what the people in the two rooms of the Lou family have to say."

    Cheng Shi said solemnly: "Exactly. It's not that we have to be a son-in-law like Ayao, but if we retreat too easily, people in Mandu will think that we are Cheng. Home is bullying!"

    The young businessman sitting in the cubicle quietly listened to the elders’ discussions, and suddenly came up with an interesting metaphor: Suppose you worked hard to be admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University, it may not be like this in the future Good luck in the exam, but there is a martyr who died in the line of duty, and his daughter needs to occupy your university place. Do you want to let it or not?
