Cub Nursery

Si Ping used to be a low-level official, he could only read a few words, and he didn't study much. According to the usual situation, he would only be a small official for the rest of his life, and he might even be expelled. In the end, he would have nothing. .

Even if he climbed up little by little now, and got extra favor from the emperor, he was able to go to court every day, in the eyes of others, he was still a little bit better than the little official, and he had no power at home. It's just a low-level official with no ability at all.

Now that he is being embarrassed, he can only stand in front by himself, without even a helper.

He didn't want to cause trouble for Yan Xun, and he didn't want to tell Yan Xun about this matter, because he knew clearly that if Yan Xun knew about this matter, he would definitely not let it go.

And until now Yan Xun didn't show up, and the other cubs didn't say anything about Yan Xun, Si Ping felt a little worried, so he couldn't bother Yan Xun.

And when Xie Ranshu appeared, Si Ping was surprised, "General Xie?"

For a family like Si Ping, the Xie family is his unattainable family. Not only have they never met each other, but even if they met, they don't know each other. Now he can recognize Xie Ranshu because of Yan Xun .

"Master Si." Xie Ranshu strode forward and waved at the Taoist soldiers behind him, "Go and help."

"General Xie?" Si Ping was a little puzzled.

"Master Si, don't worry. I'll bring troops into Beijing to help the people repair their houses. If you need any help, Lord Si just let me know." Like an official, he asked, "Are you here to help too? Are you moving stones or bricks? Is this official robe inappropriate?"

The little official was dressed in clean clothes and his face was clean, while Si Ping looked like a clay figurine, wearing coarse cloth bunts and patches from whoever gave them.

"Thank you, General." The little official's face turned red, his body stiffened and he cupped his hands towards Xie Ranshu.

He dared to be casual with Si Ping because he knew that Si Ping had no ability, and he didn't know anyone except Yan Xun, and he knew that Si Ping couldn't do anything to him, so he dared to be casual with Si Ping, but he didn't dare to Xie Ranshu.

Although the Xie family is not a top-notch wealthy family in the capital, and cannot be compared with the Wang family and the Pei family, but for a small official, it is still a family that he cannot climb up to, and even more so, he cannot afford to offend.

"Let's go back." Xie Ranshu said bluntly.

The little official was full of humiliation, watching the Taoist soldiers brought by Xie Ranshu start to work, knowing that it would be useless to stay any longer, he could only hold his breath, turned his head and walked away.

"General Xie, thank you very much!" Si Ping looked at Xie Ranshu gratefully.

"It's okay." Xie Ranshu waved his hand, "The little cub asked me to come here, just to help you out. Do you know if this is also the case in other places? The adults in the palace should all come out, right?"

Si Ping hurriedly said, "There is also Shi Yuanshou's place, and I am afraid that some people will go to Lord Wu's side. Now all the adults in the palace have come out, saying that they want to help the people build houses and roads, and there are a few adults who will collect money." Young and strong, they are going to build their own houses first. Some people came out with money and food, and expropriated young and strong to build their own houses."

Originally, everyone was the same, they all built the common people's houses, and they also waited for someone from the household department to settle the accounts and distribute the money.

But now that the dust has finally settled, many big families have finally come to their senses, taking out money and food, and expropriating the young and strong to build houses.

Many people will be tempted, and even quietly leave the team they used to work together to earn money and food.

Si Ping saw it, but he was powerless to stop it, and he knew he couldn't stop it.

"There is no need to stop it." Xie Ranshu said, "General Wei will also lead troops to help. In the future, the houses that are too damaged will be repaired by Taoist soldiers. There is not much work left. These people are enough."

"Hey." Si Ping sighed, "Wealth has touched people's hearts since ancient times."

Xie Ranshu didn't speak again.

He came from a wealthy family, he has seen and experienced much more than Si Ping, and he knows very well what those people can do for their own benefit.And the fact that the cubs guard the gold and silver mountains and don't care about them is because the cubs have a good adult, and they don't need to fight and snatch them to get those gold and silver mountains by any means.

"It's just a verbal agreement with them, let's go." Si Ping said again, "Let's work harder and finish repairing this street."

Guarding the city let the lieutenants around him lead the troops to disperse, while he galloped his horse and watched the streets intently.

Finally, he slowed down a little and saw the cub busy on the roof.

"Brother, Master Jing brought us food, let's eat together while we are resting." Brother Dan carried a lunch box that was too big for him, raised his face, and shouted at the cub shaking the mountain on the roof.

"Then what should they do?" the Mountain Shaker cub asked loudly.

The common people who were busy working with the cubs hadn't eaten yet, and some strong men were already hungry, but they still endured and continued to work.

If the common people didn't eat and the cub was alone eating, the cub Shaking Mountain would always feel weird.

"You just eat. All of us have food at home, and we can go back to cook after the house is repaired. This moment is nothing." The man hurriedly said, "But you, work more than us, and worry more than us Too many, must have been hungry."

"Don't worry." Brother Dan shouted, "Master Jing said that our family has opened a granary, and we will send out a batch of grain first. General Wei will escort it, and it will arrive soon."

With food, you can temporarily fill your stomach before continuing to work.

"That's good." Shaking Mountain Cub showed a big smile on his face, "Then let's eat first."

He didn't see the guard city in the distance, so he jumped off the roof and joined Brother Dan and Dan Honghong.

Dan Honghong was also carrying a wooden box the same size as Brother Dan, and when she saw the Shaker cub coming over, she quickly pointed to a larger wooden box next to her and said, "Brother, this is yours."

"I can smell the fragrance." The Shaking Mountain cub went to the side to wash his paws, and then ran back to open the wooden box.

The outside is a wooden box, but the inside is an iron box. The bottom is filled with hot water, and the food on the top is still steaming when it is opened.

Dan Honghong also opened her small wooden box, looked inside, then looked at the wooden box of Shaking Mountain cubs, compared and said: "Brother, mine has one more goat's milk than yours, do you want to drink it? I will give you half."

There is a separate grid in the small iron box for goat milk, and there is a thin milk skin on the surface.

"I should have it too." Shaking the mountain cub said, "Master Jing always prepares the same things."

"It must be in the hot water at the bottom." Dan Honghong leaned over and smelled it, "I smell it, bro, you have it too!"

The Shaking Mountain cub hurriedly removed the upper layer of the iron box, and there was indeed a glass bottle in the hot water below, which contained warm goat's milk.

"Meatballs." Brother Dan took a bite of the big meatballs with his chopsticks, and said happily, "Danhonghong, try it quickly, this kind of meatballs are delicious, and several kinds of minced meat are used in them." , pork, chicken, mutton, and sea fish, try it quickly."

Dan Honghong hurriedly picked up her own, gnawed a mouthful with an 'ahhh', narrowed her eyes and tasted it slowly.

"How is it?" Brother Egg asked.

"Delicious." Dan Honghong hurriedly took another bite, "Very fragrant."

"I also like to eat." Shaking Mountain's cub's lunch box is big, and there is a lot of food in it. Of course, he eats more than the two little cubs.

The three cubs gathered together to clean up the food Jing Fengye sent, and only then did the deputy general bring the Taoist soldiers to escort the food.

"Start working." Brother Dan put the lunch box aside, wiped his hands and said, "Brother, come with me, we must have food over there..."

"En." Dan Honghong ran after Brother Dan.

The Taoist soldiers escorted the grain, but they didn't take the initiative to open the grain bag, and the common people didn't take the initiative to send it forward either.

Xie Qianshu just got angry with the cubs of the flower tree and was driven away. After walking a few steps, he suddenly saw that there were no cubs on the street in front of him, only Taoist soldiers escorted the food, so he strode over with a happy face.

"Why don't you open food? Do you want to starve to death?" Xie Qianshu asked.

With the leader, two skinny men with pockmarked faces and scabies appeared in an instant, standing behind Xie Qianshu on one left and one on the right, shouting in a shrill voice, "That's right, don't give us food yet! Don’t you Dao soldiers and generals also listen to those two monsters? Those two monsters, one with red hair and the other with green hair, don’t please me, so why should we listen to them!”

"You!" Several young and strong men couldn't stand it anymore, they all stepped forward at the same time, clenched their fists, their eyes were red.

"What's the matter? We are all the people of Daqin, why should we listen to the two monsters? They told you to wait honestly, and you just waited honestly? You don't even want the food in front of you? I'll ask everyone here, you not hungry?"

Before the words fell, the stomachs of the young and strong men were all screaming.

From the ground dragon turning over, the wind and sand all over the sky, escaping from his own house, and now that there are so many coolies, almost everyone is hungry.The food brought from home has long been distributed to the elderly and children, but now almost all the young and old are uncooked.

Looking at so many grains, you can smell the fragrance of the grains, as long as you cook them in a pot, you can eat them, even eating them raw can fill your stomach.

Everyone felt even hungrier, and even subconsciously stared at the food bag.

But before Brother Dan and Dan Honghong went to find the shake mountain cubs for dinner, they made an agreement with them early to let them take the opportunity to rest and wait for their two cubs to come back.

Not everyone listens to the two cubs. If Brother Dan and Dan Honghong make them work hard and don't let them rest, they will definitely not obey, and the arrangement of the two cubs is very difficult. Reasonable, it will naturally make people obey, and people will naturally regard their two little cubs as the backbone.

Xie Qianshu cupped his hands at the lieutenant general who was guarding the grain, "General, open the grain bag."

The lieutenant was unmoved.

Xie Qianshu's face gradually became ugly, and his hands hidden in his sleeves were clenched into fists.He is the direct son of the Xie family, and he is the youngest member of the court. He also has good friends with many people and is very famous in the capital. It is impossible for the deputy general not to know him.

But the lieutenant refused to give him face, he endured it, with anger surging in his chest.

Behind the corner, Dan Honghong asked: "Brother, we are monster cubs, so we can't do those things?"

"Of course not." Brother Dan whispered, "Brother, did you hear that? That person is Xie Qianshu, who has always been at odds with our family. And the two people who jumped out have been slacking off at work. Didn't we both turn a blind eye?" Those who turn a blind eye, now only the two of them jumped out, and everyone else is standing by our side and wanting to help us."

"I understand." Dan Honghong said seriously, "There are only two people, I shouldn't just listen to them."

Brother Dan nodded and said, "Even if more people think we are monster cubs, don't worry about speaking harshly, because there will always be more kind people."

"En." Dan Honghong nodded vigorously.

"When my brothers left Honglu Temple back then, they faced more doubts and more malice, and there were more villains than now." Brother Dan said old-fashionedly, "But brothers have father, no matter what they face No matter how much you question them, they will not be shaken. Brother, don’t worry about them, because whether it’s the two of them, or 200 people, or 2 people, or tens of millions of people, the combined weight of all of them will definitely not compare to ours. Father, our brothers."

"If we care about what they say, we will be very sad, and my father and brothers will also be sad."

"Brother, just remember. We are destined to have different identities from them, and the things we encounter in the future will definitely be different, and sometimes our thoughts will definitely not be the same as theirs. We must always remember who is closest to us .”

"It's Father and brothers." Dan Honghong said seriously, "Brother, I understand."

Brother Dan breathed a sigh of relief quietly. Even after he said so much, he was still worried that Dan Honghong would be sad because of those two people's bad words.If Dan Honghong is really sad, she will subconsciously care about such wicked people in the future.

"Brother, are we going out?" Dan Honghong pointed to the front and asked in a low voice, "It sounds like some people want to do something."

"Well, go out now." Brother Dan puffed out his small chest. Although he was only a little bigger than Dan Honghong, he still wanted to walk ahead at such a time and act like a big brother.

"It can't be opened!" Finally, a man couldn't help shouting, "We are all waiting for Brother Dan and Dan Honghong to come back, and they will definitely arrange it."

The two lame and pockmarked eyes looked at each other, and said in unison: "The food is right in front of you, why should you listen to the two monsters? Aren't you hungry? And now that Mr. Xie is here, can't Mr. Xie arrange it? Do you want to despise the court officials? Don’t even think about the identities of those two monsters, are they officials?"

Brother Dan and Dan Honghong are of course not officials. None of them have started to study, and they only read a little with the cubs occasionally on weekdays, while Dan Honghong has just hatched not long ago, and has not yet started to read.

Xie Qian's book was written by the Xie family's heir, and he was well-educated. He was also a well-known talent back then, and now he is an official of the imperial court. He is wearing an official robe with a jade tree facing the wind on his body, which is impressive.

"No!" The man shouted, still scratching his neck.

The food delivered by the deputy general was Yan Xun's own granary, and the food in it was provided by Yan Xun. Even if these Taoist soldiers helped escort it, it was Yan Xun's food.

These simple men are very hungry, they are all hungry, and they want the food in front of them very much, but they know better in their hearts who gave them the food, and who should distribute the food.

It was the food given by Lord Yan, no one could touch it, not themselves, Xie Qianshu, even if the person who appeared at this time was the emperor!

"Bold, how dare you be powerless to Mr. Xie!" Laizi and Mazi shouted at the same time.

Xie Qianshu raised his face slightly and put his hands behind his back, which was very helpful.

In any case, he is an official ordered by the imperial court. No matter where the food comes from, it should be distributed to the people through his hands. Otherwise, is the official ordered by the imperial court just for display?

"No way, no way!" There were more and more men yelling, their veins were twitching violently, their fists were clenched, and they were almost unable to control themselves, wanting to do it.

"Father, they're going too far!" Behind the strong and strong man, a child said in a sobbing voice, "Obviously Brother Dan and Dan Honghong told us that the food was given by Lord Yan, and they Why do you need to open the bag. How can you touch other people's things at will, isn't that stealing?"

The child picked up a stone and threw it hard at Xie Qianshu.

He was young, he had never seen a court official before, and he couldn't recognize an official robe, he didn't know how to be afraid at all, he just felt that Xie Qianshu's appearance really disgusted him.

"Baby!" The man watched the little stone fly out, stretched out his hand to grab it, but failed to catch it, and suddenly turned pale with fright.

Up to now, everyone is holding back their anger because they can't afford to offend Mr. Xie in front of them, and they don't want to cause trouble for Brother Dan and Dan Honghong.

But adults can figure it out, but children can't care so much.

"Father..." The child came to his senses in a daze, and suddenly became scared.

With sharp corners, the small stone flew straight towards Xie Qianshu's face.

Xie Qianshu's body froze, he didn't expect that anyone would dare to attack him, let alone that the stone flew so fast and aimed straight at his face.

If the stone continued to fly, he might lose his appearance.

"You baby." The man was so frightened that his body went limp, and he sat on the ground in despair, hugging his own child. He didn't think that his child had done something wrong, so he was reluctant to beat him, but he knew that his child had done something wrong. , also reluctant to hit him.

"What do you want to do?" Brother Dan ran out of the corner, stepping on the wall and running up.

Egg Honghong came out from the other side.

The two cubs jumped up at the same time and stretched out their feet to step on the small stone at the same time.

'boom'!

When the two little cubs stepped on it vigorously at the same time, the stone that was not too big exploded and turned into a pile of powder, all of which fell on Xie Qianshu's face.

"Cough cough." Xie Qianshu coughed earth-shatteringly.

"It's just some powder, it will be fine." Dan Honghong fell to the ground, looked up at Xie Qianshu for a while and said, "Oh, I'm afraid it's something to Mr. Xie. It's dirty. Come and bring some clean water to clean Mr. Xie's face..."

When the two cubs appeared, everyone was subconsciously moved.

Soon a man brought a bucket of clean water and a clean wooden basin, and respectfully sent them to Xie Qianshu.

The petrified powder sticks to the face, it feels very strange, there is clear water in front of him, Xie Qianshu hurriedly cleans his face.

"Everyone is lined up, the elderly, women, children and children are at the front. The young and strong are all behind except those who help, and the rest are going to prepare pots, stoves and clean water." Brother Dan shouted while running, "There will be food soon Come on, everyone work harder."

The elderly, women, children and children who came to help soon were pushed to the front, some young and old stayed to help, some young and old took out the pots they moved out when they temporarily repaired the house, and temporarily built a stove, and some young and old went to carry A bucket of clean water came.

Brother Dan ran back and said to the lieutenant general, "Open the bag now."

"Yes!" The lieutenant immediately removed the grain bag and took out the wooden ladle.

Scoops of grain were quickly separated, and each man was carrying wooden basins to quickly clean the grain, and then poured it into the stove that had been set up, or even the pot that had already been lit.

The child ran quickly with the food in his hands, shouting, "We have food, we have food. Father, when the house is repaired, let's go home and return some food to Mr. Yan? We have food at home. It’s not that there is no, it’s just that I can’t go back now, and I will be able to go back sooner or later.”

Nowadays, houses all over the capital are being repaired, and the children have long heard Brother Dan say: Now they are repairing other people's houses, and many people who don't know them are also repairing their houses.

"Good boy." The burly man like a small mountain picked up his baby and shook it, and laughed loudly, "Just wait, when the house is finished and you go home, maybe your mother will go back long ago."

"Come with me, there is a house that has collapsed so badly here, I'm afraid the foundations will have to be reopened..." Brother Dan ran ahead, leading the Taoist soldiers who had finished distributing the food, pointing to the completely collapsed house. Zhaizi said, "It's here. Be careful, everyone, it's dangerous inside."

The deputy general led the Taoist soldiers in without saying a word, and took out food, intact pots and pans, tables, benches, etc.

These things were all placed on the side of the road intact, and no one took the initiative to use the white food.

"You guys come over and help watch, don't let anyone touch it." Brother Dan ordered a few children, "These things must be registered, and they will be put back when the house is repaired. Don't worry, if your family My house has also become like this, and the things inside will also be put back intact."

The house in front of him is not their house, but it is their house.

Those coarse grains packed in earthen vats, those fine grains packed in jars, and cotton cloth sold in shopping malls that only ordinary people can buy, children's clothes carefully put away, and even some It can be clearly seen that the cured meat is made of pork bought from the mall. From these details, it can be seen that this family must be very frugal on weekdays, but the children in the family must eat well. At least they can eat meat and can eat meat. Put on cotton clothes.

Such a family is not uncommon, almost everyone present is such a family.

Xie Qianshu cleaned his face and carried it away, and saw that everyone was busy, even those Daoist soldiers rolled up their sleeves to work, all of them were disgraced, and all of them lost their glamor in an instant.

On this whole street, Xie Qianshu seemed to be the only one who was clean.

The same disgraced brother Dan ran back and said to Dan Honghong, "Let's go over there and help."

"You guys!" Xie Qianshu was completely ignored, he looked left and right, and saw the pockmarks and scabs that had appeared just now retreating quietly, he was almost mad, "You ignore the emperor's orders..."
