"Who wants him to accompany me? If my love comes back or not..." Su Wan snorted and felt that she was going to be angry for a while. She couldn't let him go so easily. If he would always be so tossing in the future, how could she do anything good? Live your life.
Her voice was too low, as if she was muttering something angrily. Xiao Sang couldn't hear her clearly, so he asked, "What did Madam say?"
Su Wan came to his senses and didn't want to say this, so he said: "It's okay, what's in the kitchen? You go and take a look, bring some over, I can just eat some."
Xiao Sang said yes and then left as if running away.
He didn't bring many people with him on this trip. Su Wan only brought Xie Si'an and Xiao Sang with him.
Xie Si'an is a guard, and he only goes out with Su Wan when he goes out. When she is in the yard, she often rests in her room or does other things, and does not often come to her side, so she can use it now. There is only Xiao Sang.
She stood under the eaves for a while and looked at the scenery in the yard. Although the couple did not live much in this yard, she had done the planning herself and the houses were all newly built.
Two years have passed, and the yard is still new. The branches and leaves of the trees that were transplanted in the past have also become luxuriant. The flowers and plants planted are planted according to her preferences every year. When she comes back, if there is a flowering season, whether it is the garden or the yard where she lives, everything will be blooming. It's full of flowers.
About the only thing missing from the yard are the precious varieties she planted in flower pots. They were all moved away when she left and are now kept in Shiqiao Village.
She sat for a while, and the yard was buzzing with bees flying around collecting honey.
Xiao Sang led a boy to bring the food over. Seeing that there were bees in the yard, he said to Su Wan, "Madam, do you think it's noisy? Let someone catch it later to prevent it from flying into the house and stinging people."
Su Wan said: "No need, just let them go."
Seeing that the sun was shining just right, Su Wan wanted to bask in the sun, but the sun was a little hot at the moment, so someone moved a small table under the eaves and ate there while enjoying the scenery.
The yard was quiet, the sun was shining from the sky, there were flowers in the yard, and bees were buzzing to collect nectar. Su Wan was eating and enjoying the scenery. The cool breeze in March gradually calmed down.
After she finished eating, she moved a chair and lay down under the eaves for a while, feeling a little sleepy. At this time, Li Lin came back from outside and saw her lying there leisurely. She didn't care when he came and looked at him.
He smiled and poured himself a cup of tea from the table nearby. The tea was warm and he drank a cup to quench his thirst. Then he sat down on the embroidery stool next to her and reached out to take the white ball fan in her hand.
"Why are you sleeping here?"
Su Wan stretched out his hand to snatch his fan back and yawned: "The scenery is good and the wind is good. It's comfortable here."
He took a look at the yard. The scenery was indeed good and the wind was comfortable, so he smiled and asked her, "Are you tired of staying in Shiqiao Village? Do you want to go out and play?"
Su Wan's hand waving the fan paused for a moment, and then she looked at him in surprise: "Going out to play? Touring the mountains and rivers to enjoy the scenery?"
"Half and half, playing and doing things at the same time?" His tone was calm.
The expression on Su Wan's face calmed down: "Did something happen?"
She probably knew about his affairs, and if it wasn't a big deal, he wouldn't go there himself.
"It's not a big deal." He took the fan in her hand again, "It's almost time to stay in one place for a while. I just want to take you out for a walk and deal with things. If things are not easy to deal with, or there is something wrong, If it’s dangerous, I won’t take you out.”
Su Wan thought about it and realized that this was also the case.
It is said that life in Shiqiao Village is leisurely and comfortable, but after staying there for more than a year, it has been like this every day, and it is indeed a bit boring, mainly because there are not many people to interact with.
The ladies in Guiyan City, except Mrs.
It's really not bad if you have time to go out and play.
She felt a little moved, so she asked, "Where are you going?"
"Western Wei Dynasty."
"Western Wei?!" Su Wan was really shocked now, "Going so far?"
This trip will take about a month.
Su Wan looked around and saw that there was no one in the yard, so she asked him: "Why are you going so far away? What happened over there?"
Li Lindao: "Buy land."
"?!"
"Buy land? What land to buy?" Su Wan didn't understand even more. He even went to the Western Wei Dynasty to buy land. He just wanted to buy land. He had so many people, so he couldn't just send one of them there.
Li Lindao: "I just received a letter from Afu, asking me to send people to buy land. In a month or two, the court will start discussing the diversion of the river."
Speaking of this, Li Lin also looked a little bad.
Su Wan also paused: "Changing the river's course? That's a big deal." Especially since Li Fu also told Li Lin to buy land, it might lead to bad consequences.
"Where's his letter?"
Li Lin took the letter out of his sleeve pocket and handed it to her.
The letter was not long and the story was concise. It was about the court's intention to divert a river.
If no one is in charge, the powerful clans will be the first to get the news, and they will sell the fertile land on both sides of the river to the people at a high price, or even sell it on credit with repayment in years, and then start to sell it at a low price on both sides of the newly planned river. Purchase a large amount of land and buy the land that originally belonged to the people.
The people thought they had obtained fertile fields and were full of joy. However, once the river changed its course and the original river disappeared, the originally fertile land became increasingly barren, the paddy fields became dry land, and the harvest was greatly reduced.
At this time, the land in the hands of the common people not only depreciated in value, but was also in debt. The family tightened their belts and starved to death to repay the debt. The clan happily owned good land at a very low price, and their wealth increased. made a fortune.
A few years later, the people of the original river starved to death and lived in dire straits. The people on both sides of the new river sold their fields and eventually became tenant farmers of the clan, struggling to make a living under the clan.
If you meet a good employer, that's all. If you meet a bad one, life will be very difficult.
After reading this, Su Wan's face gradually turned ugly.
"Tell me what Afu said before. Did the Western Wei Dynasty start because of this..."
Wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. If the people don't have enough to eat and starve to death, trouble will naturally happen.
Li Lindao: "He means to buy the fields on both sides of the newly planned river first, and then sell them at the original price or lease them to the people."
"As for the original side of the river, when the time comes and the matter is publicized, no one will buy the land by then."
