[Rebirth] Deep house raising dumplings

Yin Tang did what he said, and within three days, he was able to get out of bed and walk, so he asked Steward Li to lead three or two young girls who had been selected from the tenants below, and sat down with Xi Xuyao ​​under the main hall to choose.

The girls brought here were all timid, delicate and fresh, and with a little curiosity, they looked at this strange environment and the seemingly unattainable young lady and young master.

Yin Chan couldn't help coughing, and wasn't very interested in this selection. She had personally seen these girls, so they were of good character, and they didn't have much trouble if they were put in the house.Just looking at their young and plump appearance, I recalled the scene when I went to the countryside to find Wanxiang.Even though Xiao Wanxiang was wearing that simple peasant dress, she couldn't hide her cleanliness, her whole body exuded the softness of a girl.

Thinking, Yin Yang's face that had been gloomy for many days finally showed.

In the end, Xi Xuyao ​​left only one girl.The name is Zhuer, it's nothing eye-catching, it's an obedient description.Yin Tang didn't make things difficult for her, instead he called her over and told her in person what to pay attention to in Xi's family, and asked her to do more for Xi's family.

Since then, Yin Yang has returned to his original life track.It's just that there are two more people in the family, so it is necessary to do enough superficial work, treat the husband with respect as a guest, and live in peace and harmony with the concubine.As a result, Mrs. Xi's young lady gained another reputation of "treating people generously". In this era, the most important thing for a woman is not to make a difference, but to take care of her family and her duty.The young lady is not jealous, she is not in good health but never blames others, and she is even more convincing to those who work at home.

Three months later, the concubine Zhu Er was really pregnant.The whole family was very happy, but before the celebration banquet was ready, Xi Xuyao ​​was hastily recalled by an urgent letter from Jiangning.

It is said that the Qing soldiers entered the pass, and Beiping, which was impregnable in the past, fell.

The Ming Dynasty, which had survived for so many years, finally collapsed in Li Zicheng's uprising and the long drive of the Qing people. The high-ranking officials and nobles were all in danger. They withdrew from the former political center from the north of the Yellow River, crossed the Yangtze River, and fled to places farther south than the south.And the south is not peaceful. Frequent peasant uprisings have caused the entire Jianghuai land to fall into a difficult situation.

The situation in the world is cloudy and treacherous.Under the overturned nest, An Neng has more eggs.

The Xi family's business in Jiangning was originally under Xi Xuyao's re-management. Although it could not return to the original prosperous situation, it was still thriving.Originally thought that the Ming Dynasty had lasted for so long, and didn't care about such ten days and a half months, but who knew it collapsed when he came back to visit relatives.The Jurchens grew up on horseback, so they were naturally brave and good at fighting. The rumor that they would sweep across the Jianghuai area in a few days was like a raging wind, blowing everyone in this land into panic.

At this critical juncture, Xi Xuyao ​​was the leader of the Xi family, so he immediately proposed to go to Jiangning to clean up the property there, and take a clear inventory before returning with a bank note. When the situation stabilizes, he can make a comeback.Zhu Er was pregnant with a child, so she naturally hoped that her husband would be by her side, so she urgently went to find the young lady, asking her to help persuade the young master not to go out during this time of chaos.But who would have thought that the young lady didn't seem to care at all, instead she gently persuaded her to let her raise her baby at home with peace of mind. The young master is a blessed person, and he will surely return home safely.

Zhuer was very puzzled, as a woman who was also the young master, why did the young lady not care about the young master at all?The young lady seemed to see her doubts, so she smiled lightly and told her that everyone has their own aspirations, if everyone is the same, this world will be completely lifeless.And the young master's ambition is to manage his father's unfinished business well.

What the young lady said was so reasonable that Zhuer couldn't say anything more.She had no choice but to wipe away her tears and sent the young master out of the house together with the young lady.Just looking back at the side face of the young lady, Zhuer actually saw her smiling. This smile came from the heart, as if she finally breathed a sigh of relief.Although Zhu Er is sensitive, she also understands etiquette, and she knows that she is just a concubine from the countryside, and she can't speculate on the young lady's mind at will, so she shook her head.Maybe I was wrong.

Although the news in Taimen Town is fairly well-informed, and there is a post station with ten villages and eight shops, but it is in the mountains after all, so the news is naturally lagging behind.The news has only reached here now, which shows that there has been a mess outside.

After sending Xi Xuyao ​​away, Yin Chan began to worry about Wanxiang who was far away in Yongzhou.Dynasties change, and if the officials of the previous dynasty disobey, they will suffer the disaster of extermination.Although the magistrate Yu of Yongzhou is slippery, he is a tough guy inside, and he is also loyal to the Ming Dynasty. When he was an official in the temple when he was young, he was famous for his outspokenness, and he was moved far left to Yongzhou after provoking Longyan's anger. and so on.Now that even the capital of the Ming Dynasty was captured a few months ago, and after so many years of turmoil, it is natural that there is no ability to fight back in front of a strong enemy. If there is a patriotic rebel army, it is just a spark, and it is difficult to become a big weapon. .

Yin Chan hesitated for two days, then asked the boy to hurry to Yongzhou.She was really worried about Wanxiang, what would the little girl be like in Yongzhou alone, in such a crumbling official family, and how would she deal with something that happened?With her impulsive and reckless nature, will she suffer unnecessary setbacks?I heard that the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were barbarians, and it is not impossible to massacre the city.

Thinking of this, Yin Yang became more and more restless.She was exhausted by her own thoughts, but she couldn't go to Yongzhou to see it herself, so she just waited for the news silently, praying to hear the news that the Yamen of the prefect of Yongzhou was safe.She even thought that if the Qing soldiers really attacked, and Yu Zhifu would take the initiative to surrender, at least Wan Xiang could be kept safe...

Yin Chan himself was startled by such outrageous thoughts.But then she laughed bitterly again, she is just a woman with little ability in this troubled world, and she is already very satisfied to be able to stay with the person she cherishes.

The boy who went to Yongzhou did not come back for a whole month.Obviously, no matter how slow the road is, it only takes three days, and it takes six days to go back and forth, but he hasn't been seen for so many days.The worries in Yin Yang's heart are getting bigger and bigger.She stood at the door and waited every day. In July, the fire was raging, and the autumn wind gradually picked up. She stood against the sun, or the wind was blinding her eyes. Whenever she was free, she stood at the door and waited, waiting for the boy to tell her "everything is fine in Yongzhou". Good news to bring back.

At this time, she felt like a weak and helpless reed like never before. She clearly had a lot of twists and turns in her heart, but she could only wait quietly.

It was another three days, and finally Yin Yang couldn't wait any longer.She gritted her teeth and made up her mind.He took Jinlian with him, and asked the strongest servant in the family to follow him, and went to Yongzhou to inquire about the news.From making a decision to leaving, it's just a thought.Yin Tang was worried that her rare impulse would be wasted in looking forward and backward, she couldn't wait any longer, she wanted to see Wan Xiang's situation with her own eyes.

Along the way, the carriage was absolutely dusty.The young lady still felt that the coachman was driving slowly. The coachman was still holding back, but he couldn't stand the young lady's constant urging, and finally began to complain again and again.Jinlian looked at the young lady worriedly, her face was full of rare tension, was she worried about the safety of the second lady?Or is there some other emotion in it?Jinlian didn't know, so she had to take a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off her forehead from time to time.

Finally arrived in Yongzhou.

More than ten years ago, Yongzhou City, which was full of songs and dances and goods exchanged endlessly like the land of the two Huaihe Rivers, is really desolate and desolate at this time.Outside the city gate, a crowd of mourners can be seen, shocking, I thought it would be better after entering the city gate, but who knows that there are not many people in the whole street, the shops are closed and not open, and there are broken stone piles and broken wood everywhere. A lot of houses collapsed, and there were burnt remnants not far away; teams of Qing soldiers with red tasseled caps and long braids passed through the streets and alleys. Yin Chan looked out through the car window, and even the atmosphere I dare not say a word.

Yongzhou was occupied by Qing soldiers five days ago.

Yin Chan couldn't wait to go to the Yamen of the prefect of Yongzhou first.The closer you get, the more clearly the trembling in your heart becomes clearer.She was looking forward to seeing this person who made her yearn for days and nights. At this time, Yin Chan had completely forgotten that she pushed Wan Xiang away with all her strength. As long as Wan Xiang can live well, the prefect of Yongzhou and his family will be safe. She was still worried about the etiquette between sisters-in-law and nagging about the past entanglements between the two, she just wanted to give Wan Xiang a tight hug, and listen to Wan Xiang softly and coquettishly calling out "Don Sister-in-law~".

But God always fails to fulfill people's wishes.

The worries in Yin Yang's heart finally came true.The gate of the yamen had already been sealed, and she grabbed a passerby. The passerby didn't want to say anything, but said that the prefect's family were all loyal people. After sighing, he was worried that his life would be lost if the Qing soldiers saw him, so he hurriedly dumped Yin. Tang's hand, hurried away.

If struck by lightning.Yin Yang froze in place, his ears buzzing.

Jin hurriedly stepped forward, pulled her back to the carriage, and persuaded her, it was just a rumor, and seeing is believing, and you must not be discouraged if you don't see the second young lady.

I would like to make sense.Yin Yang sank his heart, got into the carriage, and then went to Yin's house to inquire.

The Yin family is safe and sound, most of the servants in the family have been dismissed, leaving only a few who are doing things.There was no time to exchange pleasantries and emotions, Yin Chan couldn't wait to ask about the prefect's family.Mrs. Yin didn't say anything, but Yin Zhenghan seemed full of apology. He held Yin Chan's hand and said that he only knew that Zhifu Yu was a cunning villain in the past. A tough guy and good official.

He also said that the Qing soldiers broke through Yongzhou City effortlessly, and wanted to treat Yu Zhifu's family politely, but who knew that they repeatedly came to the door, but they were turned away.Afterwards, they ran into each other unexpectedly on the street, and Zhifu Yu even insulted those Qing soldiers' leaders in the street.It was a bad breath, but it also brought a disaster to himself.The Qing soldiers were arrogant and unreasonable, so naturally they refused to let him go, so they led several teams into the magistrate's yamen that night, escorted several members of Yu's family out, and beheaded him on the spot.I heard from the boy who finally slipped out that there was a river of blood at that time, and there was a lingering smell of blood all over the courtyard, which was shocking and terrifying.

Hearing this, Yin Yang couldn't stand still.She thought it would end like this, but she still didn't want to believe it.There was darkness in front of her eyes, and her feet were as weak as if she had stepped on cotton, and she fell backwards all at once. Fortunately, Jin was by her side and quickly supported her arm.

Yin Zhenghan saw that his younger sister was pale, and hurriedly said: "But I also heard that not everyone was at home at that time, and a young lady was missing. I don't know if it is the main room or the concubine's room. I searched the entire government office and couldn't find it. But I am not sure. After all, they were Qing soldiers at the time, and no one dared to step forward to ask a question."

Yin Chan's heart was beating violently, hitting his chest violently, as if he was about to jump out of his body.She sat down slowly holding her heart, her trembling fingers couldn't even hold the teacup, she wanted to take a sip of water, but accidentally poured it over, half of it spilled on her skirt.

Seeing this, Jinlian hurriedly comforted her in a soft voice, saying that the second lady's lucky star must have escaped the catastrophe when she descended to earth.Yin Zhenghan also accompanied and persuaded, and said that he was all to blame for dragging Miss Xi into the water.

Yin Yang couldn't hear them.She only knew that her little Wanxiang was very likely to have been "beheaded on the spot" and her head was in a different place.Such a scene made Yin Chan feel as if he was being swallowed up, and even found it difficult to breathe.

With sporadic hopes, Yin Chan stayed at Yin's house for a few days. Yin Zhenghan felt guilty, so he helped to search for Xi Wanxiang in and out of the city, and asked various connections to find out her whereabouts, even at a mass burial in the suburbs. I tried to find the pit.But what I learned was either "the whole family was wiped out" or "the disaster is more than the luck". The corpses in the mass graves were all in dilapidated condition, and it was impossible to tell who was who. He dared not tell his sister these words, for fear that Yin Yang would find out if he found out. All the breath he was holding on to was gone.

Tried every possible way, but to no avail.Yin Chan knew well that the Yin family was also sad now, so she left wisely.

In these few days, Yin Yang's mind seemed to have been separated from his body for a long time, and he was not sleepy, hungry, thirsty, or tired.

She regretted, regretted why she cared about those worldly eyes, cared about the words of the gods and ghosts, regretted that she had made her own decisions and pushed such a vivid person away so that her life and death were unknown now.At that time, she thought that she would be satisfied with Wanxiang living in peace at a distance, but who would have thought that she would end up separated forever!And all of this is Yin Yang's fault!I should have thought at the beginning that leaving would be full of uncertainties, why couldn't I keep Wan Xiang desperately?What to do with so much!

Yin Chan's heart ached unbearably, and the carriage started to go up the mountain road, which was bumpy and bumpy.For the first time, Yin Yang threw up violently by holding the car window. She didn't eat much, and she could only retch after a while.

It turned out that Wan Xiang felt so uncomfortable when she vomited.It's as if I want to vomit my heart and liver out.Tears rolled down suddenly, Yin Yan took the handkerchief that Jinlian handed over and wiped it. When she came back from Yongzhou, she was still pretending to be asleep, and when Wan Xiang was vomiting so badly, she was ruthless not to comfort her. Let her pretend to be asleep.

It's all retribution.Thinking about it, Yin Yang laughed for no reason.Laughing sadly and helplessly.Jinlian at the side was startled, the young lady really seemed to be dazed.

Returning to Xi's house in a daze, Yin Tang thought, he could only wait for Wanxiang at home.If Wanxiang is fine and has nowhere to go, she will definitely go back to Xi's house first, even if she had a lot of resentment towards Yin Dang before, after so many things, it must have calmed down.

As soon as she got off the carriage, Mother Song, who had been guarding the door for many days, came forward excitedly.

"Young madam, you are back! Second aunt has been waiting for you at home for a long time!"
