Chapter 128 Contract (2)
How can one pacify the world if one family is unfair?
Zhu Yunwen is no longer a threat, and there is no need to catch him. He has lost everything, so he will be particularly grateful for the family affection given by Zhu Yunsheng.
Zhu Yunxiu also needs this virtuous person who attaches importance to family affection.
Afterwards, the other two younger brothers also returned from the school. Zhu Yunyu sent someone to pick up the two little girls, a group of half-siblings, talking and laughing in the courtyard of the nominal boss, Zhu Yunwen.
These younger brothers and sisters also lack family affection. Two elder brothers here became lively in a short while, and he laughed. Zhu Yunxiu also ordered the followers to have dinner with the brothers and sisters at the King of Huai and asked him to report back to the old man.
The moment the old man Zhu Yuanzhang heard the news, he nodded silently and smiled. The grandson he hoped would have to be a virtuous king, virtuous in the world, virtuous in the ministers, and virtuous in the family's blood.
Two hours later, the old man changed into clothes, took a group of followers, and slowly left the palace city in a green curtain sedan chair.
The sedan chair went out from the side door of the palace city, passed through the Imperial City Street garrisoned by Jinwu Guard, and merged into the capital city.
The end of the year is getting closer and the smell of the New Year is everywhere in the air. The old man picked up the curtains and looked at the crowds who were traveling around and the lively market, with a satisfied smile on his face.
When I saw a man carrying his daughter on his shoulders and pulling his son in his hands, bargaining with a hawker selling rattle until his face turned red. He was angry and didn't want to buy it, but was at a loss by his crying children.
The smile on his face turned into a big laugh. When the sedan chair walked away, the old man's eyes still followed the man. It was not until he saw the other party swearing and throwing out a few money, and the children at home were shaking the rattle happily, and he reluctantly withdrew his eyes.
It's old! The old man sighed in his heart in the sedan chair.
Back then, when he was just taking Nanjing in his prime, he also took his children to visit the market in private. At that time, he was the same. His daughter carried her shoulders on her shoulders and her son was pulled by him.
When I bought a bunch of worthless things, my daughter and son called her dad with a smile! Especially the caring daughter, she put her little hands on her neck and a wet smell on her face. The taste was so damn beautiful!
But in a blink of an eye, the children are all grown up and there are fewer and fewer days around them. In a blink of an eye, after worrying about their children's affairs, they have to worry about their grandchildren's affairs again.
It’s the New Year!
The old man looked at the street scene outside the sedan chair, and was happy and a little lonely. Other people's families were reunited, but only theirs, only theirs. What was the taste of this year?
There are many grandsons that we have never seen before? They say that nephews look like uncles, but I wonder if they look like their sons!
The old man sighed in his heart, wanting to meet him, but the married daughter's family is from other people's families and the children born from other people's families are also from other people's families.
Thinking of this, the old man was a little angry again. He turned his elbow out and didn't know how to go to the palace more often and see his father!
The green curtain sedan is gradually moving away, gradually passing through the lively market and entering the less lively residential area.
But the residential area here has a different taste. The air is filled with the aroma of preparing meals from every household. The big girls and wives passing by on the street are all wearing new floral clothes and laughing before they meet. They are all about family matters, which dishes are better, which meat is cheap, who has just given birth to a fat son, and who has a handsome little daughter.
People walk smiling on the streets of residential areas. Occasionally, when someone arrives home, they will wave their hands at the door.
Sister-in-law, girl, I'm going back to cook first. I have time to bring my children to play!
Girl, let’s see you again. Let’s go to the temple fair tomorrow!
This is the life! In the sedan chair, the old man smiled knowingly again.
I don’t know how long I left, Mei Lianxin whispered outside the sedan chair, "Your Majesty, I’m here!"
When the emperor was on a private trip, he seemed to have not brought many people in private visits, but in fact, he was secretly guarding him nervously. During this trip, the old man did not take Park Bucheng, but brought Guo Huifei to serve Mei Lianxin, who had been to the Zhao family.
Zhu Yuanzhang came out of the sedan chair, looked at the house in front of him, and nodded slightly.
Although it is not a wealthy place in Nancheng, you see, the Zhao family is a good person to live!
After hearing the old man's words, Mei Liangxin looked at it for a while but couldn't see it, so she could only nod and agree.
The old man smiled and said, "Look, is it cleaner in front of his house than other people's houses? Look at the door of his house, how bright the door is! Look at the base of their walls, there is no stain at all. This is the hardworking person at home, not only does it clean inside, but it also cleans the outside!
The emperor is wise! Mei Conscience smiled and knew the details!
The old man is very fond of this flattery. Noon, let’s call the door, let’s go and let go if you have nothing to do!
Mei Lianxin waved her hand and the others dispersed from afar. Then, he walked to the door and gently slapped the knocker.
Is anyone?
Who is it? With a squeak, the small square window on the door opened, revealing Zhao Ning'er's round face with a smile. Oh, it's you!
Zhao Ning'er smiled happily and pushed open the door. Father-in-law, what wind has blown you?
Mei Lianxin smiled and said, "The family is out of the palace to do business, and pass by your house, wanting to come and take a break!"
Please come in quickly! Zhao Ning'er turned sideways and let people see the old man and smiled. This man...
Mei Lianxin almost knelt down in fear. This girl really doesn't understand anything about men and women. The old man has such a long beard that he actually thinks...
This adult is the immediate boss of the Miscellaneous Family. He came out with the Miscellaneous Family to do business. He borrowed your place to rest! Mei Lianxin quickly said, this adult has a much higher status than ours!
Old man, please come in soon, I'll make hot tea for you!
Zhao Ning'er was wearing a simple dress and had an apron on her body. The apron was clean and had no oil stains at all.
Zhu Yuanzhang entered the yard with a smile, nodding while looking.
The yard is not big, but it is well-tied and everything is well-fitting.
The two entered the house! Zhao Ning'er said with a smile.
This is very good! The old man sat down in the pavilion in the yard.
That's not good. Don't look at the weather as cold as it is, but the stone stool is cold! Zhao Ning'er said busy in the kitchen.
It's okay, we're in good health! The old man smiled.
No matter how good it is, you are at your age, so you should pay attention to your health the most! As he said, Zhao Ning'er found two soft pads.
He pulled the old man up without saying anything, then placed it on the stone bench, and let the old man sit down. Then, he gave the two of them a hot tea.
Where is the family? Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.
My father was in the yamen, and my mother went to my elder sister's house and came back during the meal! Zhao Ning'er smiled again, moved a wooden barrel, took another stool, sat in the yard and started washing clothes.
Daughter, how cool the water is! When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhao Ning'er's hand was red by the cold water, he said with some pain, "Isn't there a shop outside that specializes in washing clothes? It's cold weather, why do you wash it yourself!"
In the capital, there are small shops on every street that make a living by washing clothes for people. The price is low, and a big money can wash a large pot.
How can I wash it outside be cleaned by myself! Zhao Ning'er smiled and said, "Besides, washing a basin of clothes costs one, and you can buy two meat buns for a lot of money! I will save one today and one tomorrow, and I will save two kilograms of pork in a year!" As she said that, she tilted her head and smiled, "Live life is to be long-lasting and be able to calculate!"
Good daughter! Zhu Yuanzhang laughed with a tea bowl.
As the old saying goes, eating and drinking will never be poor, and only those who cannot calculate will suffer will not be poor. A family must be calculating about life, while a country must be calculating about life. The mother's charity in the world does not mean etiquette, but also knowing the sufferings of the people and understanding the various aspects of life.
After drinking a little hot tea, the old man said again, the water is too cold, why don’t you add some hot water!
It was obvious that you had never washed clothes in your life! Zhao Ning'er smiled while rubbing her clothes, saying, "This is Songjiang's cotton cloth. You have to soak it in cold water for half an hour before washing. Not only can you wash it clean with hot water, but it is also full of pleats after washing!
Is there such a saying? The old man was stunned. He has killed many people and eaten a lot of hardships in his life, but he has never cared about this. Before he joined the army, it would be good to wear a piece of clothes. After joining the army, it is common not to change clothes for half a year.
After having a wife, washing clothes is always the wife's business, and he doesn't even touch her.
You two sit down, I'll pour the water!
After washing his clothes, Zhao Ning'er wiped his hands on the apron, then carried a wooden bucket full of water in one hand and went straight out.
Have the strength! Zhu Yuanzhang whispered, he is in good health!
Mei Lianxin said with a slight interest, "Your Majesty, this girl is very good at making good food!"
