Chapter 222
Chapter 221 Fairy
In the south of the Yangtze River, the wind blows the banks of the willows, Wu Nong’s soft words, and it is in the ancient world called the Yan Dynasty.
This time Xiao Han was reborn again, named He Wenxi.
It is located in Yongjiang Mansion, Jiangnan, and the family also runs a medical clinic.
The system didn’t detect any missions and plots, so she just settled with the situation, behaving like a normal child’s growth pattern, unintentionally revealing the reputation of being born-knowingly intelligent, and she passed eleven or two years peacefully and steadily.
Her parents are Ankang. She is the only daughter in the family. Although she is not a rich family, she does not worry about food and clothing. Xiao Han is not dissatisfied with this condition.
The only thing I didn’t like was when I was eating a snack one day, I suddenly heard my parents say that my grandfather had been engaged to a powerful family in Beijing when he was still alive. Coincidentally, there was only Xiao Han in the family, and there were no other brothers and sisters, and this marriage fell on Xiao Han’s head.
When Xiao Han learned of this, his father and mother had already exchanged birthday posts with the rich and powerful family in Beijing two years ago. The other party’s surname was Gu, and he was still the official mansion of the country.
Even Xiao Han was a little surprised. Given their small households in the south of the Yangtze River, even if they have some family background, it is not enough to see how they can climb into such a powerful person.
Xiao Han’s relative, He Zhang, is also quite proud. His father is also Xiao Han’s grandfather. He was a well-known doctor in Beijing in the past, and he accidentally saved the life of the old man. People who value love and righteousness have this wonderful marriage, and the doctor He has to agree, but the doctor He refuses, and has to verbally agree.
As for why Xiao Han’s grandfather resigned and moved his family to Jiangnan, she also knew a little bit after idioms. On the one hand, she was tired of the court and the doctor had a hard time. His old man was old and lacking energy, and she was afraid of what might happen. Mistakes in the late festival are not guaranteed and hurt the whole family. Secondly, there is no one who can inherit the mantle. The grandfather has only two children at his knees. The eldest son is Xiao Han’s father, He Zhang, and the second son, He Ai.
What is He Zhang’s medical skills, Xiao Han has also seen it since he was a child, it is really mediocre, so now he also runs a small medical clinic, which means that he inherits the family tradition and does not forget his roots. As for the second uncle He Ai, somehow he never heard his parents talk about him, and hadn’t seen him for many years. It seemed that he had left home at an early age. Even if Xiao Han asked curiously, they all kept silent.
Even if He Zhang drank some wine secretly from his wife, and uttered the truth after he was drunk, he never mentioned Second Uncle He, but Xiao Han kept it in his mind.
All in all, the eldest son is dull and ineffective, and the younger son is nowhere to be seen. Even Xiao Han couldn’t help but sympathize with his grandfather, the famous genius doctor. When I want to come to my grandfather, I know what my offspring is like. I simply resigned early and stayed away from the capital of the capital, and lived a stable life in this small place in the south of the Yangtze River.
Even if Xiao Han’s father He Zhang was inadequate in medicine, he was not very capable of anything else, but with the wealth of the He family for several generations, he could be a famous squire in Yongjiang Mansion. He’s family doesn’t rely on the medical clinic to make ends meet. The hundreds of acres of good farmland purchased under his name are enough for the family to live without worrying about food and clothing. Xiao Han’s grandfather probably made arrangements before he passed away in peace.
Who thinks that not long after he left, Xiao Han’s father had a relationship with Gu Guo Gong Mansion in Beijing.
Xiao Han, who lay out the whole process, really felt that her grandfather was afraid that even his anger could jump out of the coffin board, but her father was stupid and didn’t know it.
In the words of his father, He Zhang, the old man is a good man. He was very sad to hear that his father, the royal doctor, He, had passed away. He sent a lot of rituals and did not talk about it. He also mentioned the marriage contract of the year again. This time it was not a verbal talk. , But directly exchanged birthday posts.
In this era, it is equivalent to formal marriage. Although He Zhang’s ability is a little mediocre, he is not the kind of person who is more profitable. He knows that his father He Yuyi is the pillar of the He family. This is equivalent to the He family ever since. The defeat is not enough to match the Guogong Mansion. He didn’t take the verbal jokes at all. Who would have thought that the high-ranking old Guogong was still thinking about it, and he was more committed than the family. Affection.
He Zhang was so grateful that he changed his birthday post without saying a word.
And his future son-in-law is the grandson of the old country’s grandson, Gu Xuan, and there is a brother of the eldest grandson on it. He Zhang, the future son of the country’s grandson, has nothing to do with it. This kind of marriage is good enough.
Xiao Han’s mother Zhou’s thoughts were the same. When He Zhang married her, the He family had a good face. Zhou was also the daughter of a sixth-grade official in Beijing. There was nothing fussy about marrying a chicken and a dog and a dog. Moreover, her husband was really kind to her. For many years, there was only one. The woman didn’t say anything, even if she was mediocre, she never thought about taking a concubine and having children. Zhou believed that he had a good life. After he came to Jiangnan, his life was stable and worry-free. The husband and wife were loving, but he also hoped that his daughter would marry better and live a life of good food and clothing.
The two couples are still low-key. This marriage has not been revealed to the public for the first few years, and even Xiao Han does not know that he has set a life-long event. It wasn’t until Xiao Han was eleven or twelve years old, and his career became more brilliant.
Both of the He family’s appearances are ordinary and ordinary, they are partial to Xiaohan, they are extraordinarily outstanding. In addition, He family’s wealthy family has only one daughter. There are also more matchmakers who want to marry, and there are not few who are willing to join the family. .
Only then did the Zhou clan let out the news, that his daughter had already agreed to someone else, and it was still the Guogong Mansion in the capital.
Although others can’t believe it, no biological mother would talk nonsense about her daughter’s marriage, which would ruin her reputation. Since then, the front of He’s house has been cleaned a lot. Xiao Han couldn’t laugh or cry, and inexplicably memorized the marriage contract.
It’s not that Xiao Han is not love-loving. He is pure-hearted and unwilling to the extreme. It’s just that there are some blind marriages that reject ancient feudalism. It is better for two people to like the marriage.
However, her parents loved her in this life, but they refused to rely on her in marriage. Even the example of Qi Dafei can’t convince them. He Zhang firmly believes that the old man who values love and righteousness and promises, his daughter will certainly not endure much hardship after marrying into the government mansion.
Mother Zhou also feels that it is better to get married than to suffer in a small family, or even to take care of the housework, husband and child. Not to mention that the children born to her daughter will be of the direct blood of the government, and the birth status is more similar to that of ordinary people. It’s a big difference.
Xiao Han: “………………”
She ignored it. In ancient times, it was difficult for women to be free, and they always had a variety of identities. It is difficult for someone’s daughter, someone’s wife or even someone’s mother to act recklessly. , For the family as parents, for the husband and children.
Xiao Han chatted with the system one after another.
Looking at it from afar, the willow breeze, the beautifully born girl sitting on the edge of the blue stone of the pond, the light-colored gauze tied two ring buns, and the cyan ribbon fell on her shoulders along with the rest of the hair. The maid Yuner thought that the lady and The old lady was sulking and unhappy, so she stayed alone.
However, the young lady was kind to others and asked her to follow her learning to read and read medical books. Yun’er was still biased towards the young lady and wanted to go up and give some comfort, but only when she walked over, she saw that a green leaf was slightly curled up on the small stone, and there was still on it. A little snail moved softly.
The delicate pink face of the young lady still has a full smile, her eyes are cut into autumn water, and she stares at the snail on the leaf to play, she looks like she is contented, not at all like having trouble with her parents or having a young girl’s spring. It was full of melancholy for his marriage.
It seemed that this best marriage contract was not as attractive as a small pet in her eyes.
This is indeed the case. A marriage contract is nothing more than a marriage contract. Does it mean that Xiao Han can’t eat for it and frown? That’s too much. She couldn’t persuade her parents in this life for a while, but when she grew up a lot, she could quit her marriage.
There is a saying that he would rather demolish ten temples than one marriage, but what Xiao Han demolished was his own marriage, so as to avoid harming others and become a grudge. It was a merit.
In a blink of an eye, Xiao Han left this trivial matter behind, picked up this green leaf, and sent it to the lush trees and grass with the little snail on it. After doing this, he smiled at the maid Yun’er, “Let’s go out and go shopping.”
Xiao Han was still young, so he didn’t have to worry about men and women, and he took the maid on the street. This place is Yongjiang Mansion, the capital of the county, and it is also prosperous. There are many restaurants and tea shops. There are not only traffickers and pawns coming and going, but also literati and scholars talking upstairs.
This is nothing, if it is Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Yangzhou, then it will be the real fireworks March, a scene of drunkenness.
The stall not far away seemed a bit lively, and there was a circle of people outside.
There was only one fish in the basin in the middle of the table, “This is not a normal carp, but an arowana at the bottom of the lake.” The fish seller brags, “I have worked so hard. I got it.”
Others urged, “According to you, the Dragon King in the lake still has to settle the account with you. You have captured his old man’s offspring. If anyone eats it, they shouldn’t be in trouble.”
Folk legends have existed since ancient times. Compared with other fairies and ghosts, the dragon is undoubtedly a lofty symbol. Even the emperor on the throne compares himself to the emperor of the true dragon. The ordinary people naturally dare not blaspheme and neglect casually, Yongjiang. There is a lake in the mansion, which was also Daze in ancient times. Therefore, there are several ghost stories written in the local area that mention the Dragon King in the lake. When Xiao Han was young, he heard his mother tell it as an enlightenment story.
The fish seller was a little bit embarrassed, knowing that he was boasting too much, but he was caught by the loopholes and scared many buyers away. What should I do if I eat dragon fish and attract the Dragon King in the ancestral lake? Nowadays, the trend is mostly to worship the gods, rather Believe it or not. The hawker hurriedly asked for supplements, “Even if you don’t eat it, it’s not bad to buy it back and keep it for viewing. Ask for a good auspicious sign.”
Xiao Han should also watch the excitement, and took a look, and it was almost the same as Yun’er said, “Maybe it has changed.”
There are no wonders in nature, and there are many biological genetic mutations.
“What is mutation?” Yuner, the maid who doesn’t understand science, is naturally ignorant.
Xiao Han explained casually, “It’s the one that looks the most special and unique among the thousands.”
“Then how do you sell this fish?” Sure enough, this so-called arowana still has the appeal, and soon someone asked about the price.
The hawker swallowed, and reached out to a count, “It’s not expensive, it’s only twenty taels.”
The price directly scared the buyer back, “What, a fish is twenty taels, you are afraid it is the lion who speaks loudly.”
These years are fairly peaceful, and there is no exorbitant taxation, but the cost of a family of four civilians is no more than twelve a year. The price of this fish is worth the cost of a family for two years, and it is not bought back. Eat, but raise, where ordinary people are willing.
The fish sellers are still waiting to bargain, but the people who had just surrounded the circle are now scattered.
It is said that this hawker is not shrewd enough. This is the East City. Who would take twenty taels of silver on his body casually, if he carried the fish to the noble gentry in Fucheng to talk about it, and then brag about the dragon fish. , Even if they only believe in one or two cents, those masters don’t hesitate to spend twenty liang to buy them.
Now everyone has finished watching the excitement, watching the wonder, and going back to be a joke and talk about it.
The story of the dragon fish was just made up by his letter. He didn’t even catch the fish from the lake, but happened to pick it up in the reeds. He was not afraid to offend any dragon lord.
Yun’er suddenly pulled Xiao Han’s sleeves and hurriedly whispered, “Miss, look at it, the fish is crying.”
The sparkling flashes seem to be an illusion, wait, will the fish shed tears?
Xiao Han was stunned, how could a fish cry because it was born without lacrimal glands. Is it an illusion caused by the angle of light refraction.
In fact, thinking about it, she is lucky. Every time the system arranges to pass through, her identity is at least an individual. If she wears something like a bird, beast, fish, or insect, she still happens to run into this kind of situation where the fish can be slaughtered by others. , I’m afraid it’s too bad.
Xiao Han sighed, “I want this fish.”
Even though Xiao Han was just a little man at this time, he was obviously a daughter of a wealthy family with a maid beside him. As soon as the fish seller smiled, Xiao Hanqing Lingling’s voice was heard the next moment, “One or two, I only have so much money.”
At any rate, it should be halved, and the fishmonger couldn’t help but get tangled.
An ordinary carp is only between ten texts and eight texts. Xiao Han said that one or two is already a very high price, and she didn’t mean to give more profit to the hawker.
Probably no one was arguing with Xiao Han, and the hawker was worried that the fish would end up in his own hands, and he would earn more than half a month for a couple of silvers, so he accepted with a bitter face. He grinned when he received the money.
Xiao Han simply paid the money neatly, and Yun’er returned with the basin.
Not to mention a tael of silver, Xiao Han can also get twenty taels of silver. The He family’s family is not thin, and there is only a daughter like Xiao Han, who has always loved him, and usually has a lot of money. If Xiao Han is a boy, maybe Xiao Han is a boy. I can still be a landlord, and I am still young now, so I don’t need to be ethical or ethical about men and women, and I can live at ease.
Yun’er held the water basin, followed Xiao Han closely, and asked, “Miss, where should I give this fish when I go back?”
Xiao Han glanced at the carp with its tail spinning in the basin, “Either keep it or let it go.”
In the end, Xiao Han did not let Yun’er be raised in the pond at home, but released the animals in the well. If the fishmonger does not know the truth, it would be too much trouble to go to the big lake of Yongjiang Mansion to release the animals. Anyway, Yongjiang Most of the wells in the houses are connected to underground waterways, extending in all directions into the mountains and lakes outside the city.
Hearing Yun’er said, the carp disappeared in the well the next day, it should have been swimming away.
…
Whether it was a marriage contract or a momentary softhearted spending money to buy fish to release, it was just a small episode for Xiao Han. The only pity was that his mother Zhou began to restrain her from letting her go out to play, saying that it was a big time. It looks like a daughter’s house.
Xiao Han had no fear at all. He looked at the well, and saw that the water at the mouth of the well was sparkling in the moonlight, and there seemed to be some living creatures swaying inside.
Suddenly, a silver-white carp jumped from the water surface and shattered the waves, swaying a very beautiful arc, and it seemed to spit out something in an instant, and it fell straight into Xiao Han’s arms.
Xiao Han picked it up and saw that it was a huge, plump, mellow and crystal-like pearl, with an icy air, even under such a dim moonlight, it was still blooming with a gleaming halo, which was called a gem.
Looking further into the well, the fish was especially there, and after a closer look, the fish scales on its body were distinct, and the crystal clear and transparent were as brilliant as silver, which was really unusual. Reminiscing this is like a gem for her, Xiao Han quickly remembered the carp that she had let Yun’er release in this well before. Although the appearance of the carp seemed to have changed a little, it seemed to be the same.
Is this a gift for life-saving and release?
Xiao Han was stunned, this fish is more than humanity, it’s perfect.
Wait, isn’t this an ordinary world?
