After sighing for a while, Huang Qiong turned to the four women beside him and said: "I just saw this place now, and thought of this place just a few years ago, and I was somewhat emotional. You don't know, at that time, there were beggars everywhere here. And private prostitution. It was here that I met Liu Hu’s family. It was also here that the old man killed an evil government servant with his own hands. You guys are laughing. "
"At that time, Zhang Qian was still the king of Jingzhao. At that time, I was just a county king. Mr. Zhang was the eldest son of the dignified Wuchang Bo. He was also known as one of the two most talented people in the civil and military circles with Guo Chen among the children of the family. Guy. Although I am quite respectful on the surface, in reality I don’t like me at all. I am a prince who has been in the cold palace for eighteen years and was awarded the title of a county prince at the age of eighteen. "
"The place where we are standing now is the old house of Liu Hu's house. It has been deserted for I don't know how many years. You can see the sky when you walk in. I still remember their house. It was as broken as a fishing net. Quilt. Sister Yu didn’t even have a dress at the time, so she could only curl up under the quilt during the day. At that time, I rushed in rashly, causing Liu Hu’s misunderstanding, and became attached to Liu Hu and Sister Yu.”
"Later, Liu Hu was retaliated by Zhang Qian and was locked up in the prison of Jingzhao Mansion. I was here at the time and almost had a fight with Zhang Qian in order to rescue Liu Hu. Zhang Qian was so crazy at that time , let alone me, even King Yong didn’t give me face. Fortunately, although that guy didn’t think much of me, he was still a little taboo about King Yong’s mixed energy, so he finally gave in. "
Huang Qiong talked about that past incident that he almost never mentioned, although his tone was very calm. But from his words, several women could feel Huang Qiong's bitterness at that time. As a prince, but he can't even do anything to a palace official, isn't it like being publicly slapped in the face? Even if he is a son of aristocratic family, he may not be so arrogant. In the final analysis, everyone still thinks that he is not taken seriously.
Other princes entered the palace early and were granted the title of prince by the time they left the palace. But when he left the palace, he was named the county king. This means to almost everyone that this prince has actually become an abandoned son of the Tian family. Even judging from the current relationship between the old man and Concubine Jing, what he did back then was more to temper him. But how many people can endure this so-called training?
Apart from anything else, a group of brothers younger than him were all princes, but he only made a county prince. This is not only embarrassing, but also depressed in my heart. What's more, Chen Yao was also included in this, and her unborn child was assassinated. If it were someone with a weak will, his mentality would have collapsed long ago. But he just walked out step by step.
The women are all like mirrors in their hearts, and the old man was training him back then. But at that time, in the old man's mind, he was definitely not the first choice for heir. Not to mention that the deposed prince who is currently imprisoned is still in power. I am afraid that even the other brothers have a higher status in the old man's heart than him. I'm afraid no one thought that he would reach the end. Who knows the hardship and sadness involved?
Looking at Huang Qiong's back, the women felt a little distressed in their hearts. Huang Qiong, who was filled with emotion when he saw that this place had changed into a new look, did not stay here too long. I took a few girls to the outer city and spent a long time shopping. However, the snow on the streets is accumulating more and more, and many dilapidated houses are obviously in dangerous situations as the snow on the roofs becomes thicker and thicker.
However, what made Huang Qiong happy when he arrived was that the government officials from Jingzhao Mansion had already braved the wind and snow and started patrolling the streets. They also organized people to clear the snow on the roofs of those houses that were clearly unable to bear it and were getting thicker and thicker. Just because of manpower limitations, it is somewhat insufficient. After all, there are still a lot of dilapidated houses in the outer city. How can those government officials in Jingzhao Mansion be enough?
There was a shortage of manpower, and several houses along the way had already collapsed under the weight of the snow. Although there were only a few of them, the men, women, and children in that room could only stand there helplessly and cry bitterly when they saw that their only place of residence had become a pile of ruins. After pinching his nose, Huang Qiong could only sigh. I had just talked to the girls about how the poor people would be happy under the great shelter, but now this happened.
Seeing that Huang Qiong's expression was a little uncertain, Situ Huanshuang walked to a family who was crying bitterly because their only house had collapsed. He looked at the two sallow-looking children and an old woman with a stooped body. He took out a purse from his cuffs and took out two golden melon seeds. He took the hand of the ragged housewife and put the two golden melon seeds in her hand.
He said softly: "Find a more reliable banker and exchange these two golden melon seeds for making money. Let's repair the house again when the snow stops. Don't think too much. As long as the family is still alive, the family can still survive." Together, there will be hope for the future. Use the remaining money to do some small business, and let the two children study more. When the children have success in the future, they will be successful. "
When Duan Jin handed over the golden melon seeds, how could that woman, who had probably never seen much money making, dare to accept it? It’s just a time to give and a time to say no. The stooped old woman over there saw these two golden melon seeds in her originally cloudy eyes, and her eyes glowed with gold. She ignored her daughter-in-law's refusal and snatched them away by force.
While snatching, he also scolded the woman: "Are you short-sighted? Just like your poor mother-in-law, you are blind to good things. Why don't you take the money that others are rushing to deliver to your door?" ? Let me tell you, this is gold. Although these two pieces of gold are small, they can be exchanged for at least hundreds of coins. With this money, my old lady can also enjoy the feeling of being a wealthy family. "
But as soon as the old woman finished speaking, the woman who had been holding her mouth shut before said: "Mother-in-law, we can't just ask for money from others. We are poor, but we are not so poor that we can't survive, so why should we? Accept alms from Farewell. No matter how poor you are, you still have to have some ambition, and the children are watching. The house has collapsed due to the weight of the snow, and my wife still has a handful of money in her hand, so she will go to a relative's house for a few days to borrow money."
"These days, I find more clothes to wash and mend, and then I try to find some other jobs to do, and I can always get over it. We are poor, but my wife has hands and feet and can still do it. We can't develop a habit of always counting on It’s the habit of others to live by giving alms. No matter how valuable it is, we can’t ask for it. What’s more, if the money is seen by the husband, he will use it to gamble. Aren’t you harming him? "
What this woman said made Huang Qiong and his wife stunned in unison. None of them expected that this woman, who was only 39 days old and was only wearing a tattered single dress and had a haggard look on her face, could be so ambitious. Life is so difficult, and I still refuse to accept help from others. I want to be self-reliant, and even more want to set a progressive example for my children.
It's just that this woman's words clearly meant the wrong thing to the old woman. But the old woman refused to pay attention at all. She held the two golden melon seeds tightly in her hands and said angrily: "You know nothing. When the money comes into my hands, it is mine. Come and teach me a lesson, you Do you have that qualification? If you wash and mend clothes, when will you be able to earn so much money? When will you be able to live a good life?"
"If I have this money, how can I harm my son? If you dare to curse him again, will I tear your mouth apart? My son is fine. What happened to my son's gambling? He has won a lot of money these years. Money. Don't forget, you little bitch is the one who won it. If you don't tell him what you said today, he will skin you. If you are pretending to be noble, be careful of me interrupting you. legs."
Regarding the old woman's half-roarious and half-unreasonable words, the woman said helplessly: "Mother-in-law, you know better than anyone whether he has lost more or won more these years? In these years, he, the boss, has How much money did my mother ask someone to send me? For an ordinary family, even if they don't buy a house or land, they would still be a moderately well-off family. But how much money is left now?"
"I'm scratching my head. The little monthly money I saved is just to hope that my son will live a better life. But he lost all that money. Don't you just rely on it, as soon as his mother enters the palace? The door is as deep as the sea, and it is impossible to get out from there, so why do you wantonly take money from others to give to your children? He dares to gamble with that money, but if he sees this money, how dare he touch it? "
No matter how thick-skinned the old woman was exposed, she couldn't bear it anymore. So he simply started to act wildly, tearing the woman's mouth apart. While tearing and scolding: "We are his elders, what happened to using his money? Besides, who told you that it is his money? I am the child's grandmother, my son is also the child's father, his money is ours money."
"She is now a concubine in the palace, enjoying this great blessing, and is only given a small amount of money. Who in the world doesn't know that those people in the palace are so fat. His damn mother, now he has met With such great fortune, there is no telling how much income a year will bring. Every year, some leakage from the hands is enough for us. But that damn bitch of his gives so much every year, and you still lick your face and say that?"
The old woman, while yelling and cursing, caught the woman and scratched her shamelessly. The woman faced her mother-in-law, but she didn't dare to resist and could only dodge desperately. But no matter how she tried to hide, there was still a time when she couldn't hide. The old woman who was tricked by this man had three cuts on her arm. Maybe this old woman has always been spoiled at home.
The two grandsons, one already twelve or thirteen years old and the other five or six years old, did not dare to step forward to stop him. I could only beg my grandmother to let my mother go. It wasn't until Duan Jin on the side couldn't stand it anymore that he stepped forward and pulled the old woman away, thus saving the young woman from the danger of being disfigured. But Duan Jin didn't expect that this old woman was so aggressive.
After being pulled away by Duan Jin, he also knew that if he stepped forward, not only would he not be able to take advantage, but he would also most likely suffer even greater insults. Of course, perhaps looking at Duan Jin and the others who were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, they might be thinking of extorting more money. Just ignore it, sit down on the snow and start acting. While slapping his thighs and wailing loudly, he kept accusing and scolding Duan Jin, beating himself as an old woman.
Although Duan Jin has a somewhat aggressive temperament, he is not that aggressive. She was born into a royal family since she was a child, and her education was extremely luxurious. The people around him are all princes and dignitaries. No matter in private, these people fight like crows and chickens, but on the surface they are still polite. Even when I traveled around the world, I never came into contact with such a shrew, let alone those dirty words.
Duan Jin was stunned when he heard the old woman scolding her in different ways? In all her life, she has never heard such slang, let alone these curse words. Although it was still full of wind and snow at this time, this place itself was a densely populated place after all. The old lady was crying and scolding, and soon there was a circle of people watching.
