Chapter 600 Hua Geer (2)

Yuxi asked Aunt Jia: "What request do you have? As long as I can do it, I will promise you."

Aunt Jia said with tears in her eyes: "I hope the master will not cause trouble for my family, and I also hope that the concubine can go down to Brother Hua in the same way." Guess she, the head of the family and the youngest son will all die. That's why she sent Brother Hua to the Wang's Mansion instead of Han's Mansion.

Yuxi nodded and said, "I can promise you both of these conditions." These two conditions proposed by Aunt Jia are trivial matters to her.

Aunt Jia knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, Princess." If it wasn't for her helplessness, she wouldn't be willing to leave her son behind.

They are all mothers. If someone separates her from the child, she will probably be able to fight desperately. Yuxi looked at Aunt Jia who was crying miserably, sighed and said, "If you miss Brother Hua in the future, you can come to pick him to see him."

Aunt Jia suddenly raised her head and said, "Really?" Seeing Yuxi nodding, Aunt Jia shook her head while wiping away her tears and said, "I don't want to see you anymore. I'm afraid that if I do, the child will be even more sad."

Yuxi thought for a while and said: "Hua Ge'er is too young, let him go to Yanzhou to see you when he grows up!" This is tantamount to a promise that Hua Ge'er will not break ties with her.

Aunt Jia was so moved that she kowtowed three times to Yu Xi: "Thank you, Princess, thank you, Princess."

Yuxi said: "You don't need to thank me, what I can do is very limited." The eldest brother now only has one son, brother Chang, and the heirs are too thin. Since Brother Hua is not dead, he must stay.

At this time, Brother Hua shouted outside: "Mother, mother..." He also changed his name to Mother when he was fleeing. In the past, Brother Hua could only call her Aunt Jia in Hanfu.

Yuxi paused and said, "How about I call Brother Chang over and let him see you too." Brother Chang was brought up by Mrs. Ye alone, and he was not close to Aunt Jia. But Aunt Jia was his biological mother after all, so it was right to see her.

Aunt Jia shook her head hurriedly and said, "I won't see the eldest young master." This son has never stayed with her for a day since he was born, and she has never raised him for a day, so he doesn't even kiss him at all. Although sad, she didn't want Brother Chang to make things difficult.

Seeing this, Yuxi didn't say anything more: "Then you can rest for two days before going back!"

Aunt Jia shook her head and said, "I'll go back later." Although she was reluctant to part with Brother Hua, she was even more worried about seeing Han Jianming, and it was unknown whether she would be able to return to Yanzhou by then. In Han Jianming's eyes, she is a weed that can be thrown away easily, but in the eyes of the master, she is a treasure. Therefore, even if she dies, she will return to Yanzhou.

Seeing Aunt Jia's terrified look, Yuxi sighed again: "I'll ask Han Ji to arrange a car for you, let's leave tomorrow morning! You and Brother Hua, let's spend one more night together!" Seeing Aunt Jia's hesitation How could Yuxi not know that she was worried about the members of the Han family. Yuxi said: "Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you."

Aunt Jia nodded and said: "For the kindness of the princess, I will pay it back as a cow or a horse in my next life."

Yu Xi shook her head and said, "You don't need to say such things, the Han family owes you." You include not only Aunt Jia and Brother Hua, but also the other two aunts and those children who have died.

Meilan said outside: "Princess, Mrs. Tan, please see me." Yuxi is a busy person now, and there is really no time for a break.

Yuxi said to Aunt Jia: "After returning to Yanzhou, live a good life with that person! If you have any difficulties, you can come to me when the time comes."

Aunt Jia shook her head and said, "Don't bother the princess."

Tan Tuo came here mainly to talk to Yuxi about Qiuzhong in Gansu. Tan Tuo said: "Princess, there was a heavy rain in Gansu two days ago, and it can be cultivated. Concubine, do you think it is possible to plant yams again?"

Yu Xi shook her head and said, "No.

I just planted yams in the field last year, and if I plant them again this year, there will be pests. Let those lands grow wheat! "If Shanxi and Henan are conquered, they can grow yams.

Tan Tuo hesitated and said, "How about planting some and try it." The yield of yams is so high that officials and people who have just experienced the disaster are reluctant to give up, including Tan Tuo.

Yuxi shook her head and said: "I asked them to do an experiment before. They planted two crops in succession on the same acre of land, and the second time they could only harvest more than 400 catties." The yield was reduced by three quarters.

When Tan Tuo heard this, the fire that had just ignited in his heart was extinguished: "Gansu is fine, but I don't know when Shaanxi will be able to farm." Now it is the end of October, and if there is any delay Have to wait for spring to sow.

Yuxi shook her head and said, "It depends on what God means."

In the evening, after Yuxi finished talking about business with Yun Qing, she talked about Aunt Jia again: "I didn't expect that Aunt Jia and Brother Hua didn't die."

Although Yunqing respected Han Jianming, he felt that Han Jianming was irresponsible in this matter: "Even if the situation was forced to take them away from the capital to the northwest, we should arrange them well instead of leaving them in the capital. "

Yuxi smiled wryly and said, "It's too late to say this now." It's not that Han Jianming has no regrets in the past few years, but it's just useless to regret.

Yun Qing said: "After Mrs. Jia leaves, send that child back to the Han Mansion! Otherwise, your sister-in-law probably won't stop anymore."

Yu Xi didn't agree, and said: "When the elder brother comes back, let the elder brother take him back in person!" Yu Xi was not worried that Brother Hua would be treated badly when he returned to Han's house. After all, Brother Chang is the elder brother of his mother and compatriots. With this relationship, even if his mother is not around, people in the Han family would not dare to neglect him.

Yun Qing was silent, and said: "You are already busy with family affairs, so don't meddle in the affairs of the Han family's house." You are too busy with your own family affairs, so how can you have time to take care of other people's affairs? .

Yuxi smiled and said: "Brother will come back in two or three days, and this child will only stay in the palace for two or three days. Besides, I don't need to take care of it, there is a maid!"

Yun Qing didn't say anything more.

The next day, Aunt Jia got up before dawn. Looking at Brother Hua who was sleeping soundly, Aunt Jia wiped the tears all over her face, gritted her teeth, turned and walked out of the room.

Sitting in the carriage, Aunt Jia finally couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears. He cried until noon, when the coachman asked him to get out of the carriage for lunch. For the next few days, Aunt Jia was in the grief of being separated from her son.

After seven days, Aunt Jia returned to her home in Yanzhou. The coachman took Aunt Jia to her door, then took out a big gray cloth package from the carriage compartment and said, "This is from the princess." After speaking, he put the package in Aunt Jia's hands.

The package was very big and heavy, and Aunt Jia almost dropped it on the ground: "What's here?"

The coachman shook his head and said, "I don't know either. The steward said it was given to you by the princess, and I will give it to you when you arrive in Yanzhou. Lady Li, I'll go back if it's okay."

Aunt Jia guessed that there might be money in it, and she wanted to say no, but thinking about the current situation at home, she couldn't say anything.

The coachman's task was completed, he turned around and drove the carriage away.

Aunt Jia's husband is Li Erpao, who used to be the second head of the bandit group. I didn't save much for the wedding money, and I saved some gold and silver after marrying Aunt Jia, but it was almost spent during the famine. When he arrived in Yanzhou, Li Erpao exchanged a piece of gold for this earthen cave dwelling, and it was considered a home. But after buying this earthen cave dwelling, they have no money at hand. The money to go to Pick City this time was also borrowed by Li Erpao.

Aunt Jia opened the door with the key, and then turned the door upside down before entering the room. When I opened the package, I found that it was full of clothes, some for adults and some for children. In addition to the clothes, there are more than thirty pieces of broken silver and a square camphorwood box.

Opening the camphor wood box, Aunt Jia saw a pile of golden leaves neatly arranged.

Yuxi gave the gold leaf but not the gold ingot because she thought that the gold leaf is small and easy to exchange when using it, while the gold ingot is too eye-catching. There are fifty taels of gold leaves in this box, as long as there are no flowers, it is enough for their family to live comfortably in the Northwest. Of course, the premise is that there will be no more major disasters.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door: "Erba his mother, are you at home?"

Aunt Jia heard the voice of Mrs. Hu, her neighbor, and hurriedly hid the box of gold leaves in the middle of the kang, and then put the bricks back to restore them to their original state. After straightening her clothes, she went out and opened the door.

Mrs. Hu's husband and Li Erpao are eight worship friends, and it is also because they have a group of people that they can live until now.

Mrs. Hu saw Aunt Jia's lake blue muslin clothes, and she smiled all over her face: "Oh, Erba's mother, this dress is really pretty." Just now he saw Aunt Jia getting off a carriage, Then the coachman handed Aunt Jia a big package.

Aunt Jia smiled and said, "The eldest son gave it to her aunt." When she left with Brother Hua, she meant to send the eldest son to marry her aunt in Weizhou City. It would be enviable for people like them who came from other provinces to have relatives in the northwest. What's more, Mrs. Hu also knows that her aunt is still working in the official family.

When Aunt Jia was in the cottage, she told people that she took Brother Hua to join her sister-in-law who married in the northwest and was captured by the bandits. Life is difficult now, and no one doubts that the child will be sent to Weizhou.

Aunt Hu said enviously: "The clothes are not cheap, and my aunt is really willing to do so. By the way, will the eldest stay at her aunt's house?" Seeing Aunt Jia's nod, Aunt Hu said: "This eldest I fell into the nest of fortune." The clothes that Aunt Jia was wearing cost two or three hundred Wen. Such a generous master would definitely not treat a child badly.

When Aunt Jia heard this, her eyes were red and she said, "If it wasn't for nothing, I wouldn't be willing to send the child so far." It's also because the man has a strong relationship, otherwise I wouldn't be a neighbor. But the relationship between Aunt Jia and Mrs. Hu is not close. Mrs. Hu is not a bad person, but she has a bad mouth, and everyone knows that she can publicize every little thing. In addition, she was very stingy, so she didn't dare to entrust her youngest son to her when she went to Pickaxe City.

Mrs. Hu felt that Aunt Jia would not hurt her back while standing up and talking. If she had such a good relative, she would have sent her son there long ago. It's a pity that her son didn't have that life, and she didn't have an aunt who worked in the government's family.

After saying a few words, Aunt Jia gave a broken piece of silver to Mrs. Hu: "Sister-in-law, this is the silver you owe you. Sister-in-law, you see I have been back for so long, so I have to pick up the child. What's the matter, late Let's talk about it later!" At the beginning, I borrowed two taels of silver from Mrs. Hu, and this piece of silver was more than two taels.

Aunt Hu's eyes almost popped out as she held the piece of silver.

But Aunt Jia turned around and went back to the house, picked out two of the plainest and oldest clothes and rolled them up, then took her household registration to the grain shop and bought ten catties of yams. Passing by the grocery store, I bought another pack of maltose after thinking about it, and carried it to Shang's house in large and small bags.

The law and order in the northwest is very good, even if Auntie Jia, a woman, mentioned so many things, no one dared to make a decision.

Mrs. Shang was shocked when she saw that Aunt Jia had given so many things: "Sisters, don't dare to take it, it's too expensive." Although Mrs. Shang's husband and Li Erpao were not sworn brothers, they had a close relationship. It's just that there are four children in his family. It is not easy for the children to live for a long time. During the famine, except for the eldest daughter who survived, the three younger ones did not survive.

It was also because money was tight that their family couldn't afford a cave dwelling, so they had to share a cave dwelling with others. Aunt Jia will hand over the youngest son to Mrs. Shang's family. Firstly, Mrs. Shang is a kind-hearted person so she doesn't worry about treating the child harshly; secondly, her eldest daughter, Xiaoqin, is nine years old and can help take care of the child without delaying Mrs. Shang's work.

Aunt Jia hugged her clean son and said: "Xiaoqin helped me take care of my second baby so well, I am very happy. I specially gave this thing to Xiaoqin, not for you. Sister-in-law can't postpone it."

Mrs. Shang also knew that Aunt Jia wanted to help her. Thinking about the situation at home, and looking at her daughter's expectant eyes, she finally accepted the things: "Xiaoqin, thank you, auntie."

Xiaoqin took a piece of malt candy and said with a smile on her face: "Thank you, auntie." After speaking, she took a small sip.

Mrs. Shang asked: "Siblings, what about the eldest son's aunt and uncle? How is it for you and the eldest son?"

Aunt Jia nodded and said: "The eldest son's aunt is warm-hearted, and his uncle is also a kind person. Otherwise, I wouldn't trust to hand over the eldest son to them." After a pause, Aunt Jia pointed to the clothes on her body and said: "Aunt Dawa knew that I was going through hardships, so she not only gave me a lot of clothes, but also gave me some money. When she left, she said that if there was any difficulty, just go to her. It's just that I remarried after all. I wouldn't go to her if I didn't have trouble going on."

Mrs. Shang nodded and said: "This is really rare for my aunt." When Aunt Jia left, she didn't even bother her. Now that they are sending sugar and cloth, the big baby and her aunt must not be giving small money.

Aunt Jia went to the grain store with the baby in her arms. This time, she bought 20 catties of yams, and 5 catties of rice noodles and beans, which cost a total of one tael of silver.

She eats the yams herself, and the rice noodles are for her son. Although Erwa survived, she was very thin. Now that I have money on hand, I naturally want to feed my children something good.

She bought a lot of things, and Aunt Jia was holding the baby again, so she reluctantly spent two pennies to ask someone to deliver the things to her door.

Aunt Hu looked at the pile of things, her eyes were almost green: "My brother and sister really got rich this time. These things should cost seven or eight hundred yuan, right?"

Aunt Jia smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, I have to pack up my things now. I'll talk about what's going on later!" After speaking, let the people see the things and carry them into the yard.
