Chapter 236 Changes
An Xu nodded, motioning for the people next to him to give them a stool.

Feng Nian thanked him, but turned around and let the woman next to him sit down first. The baby in his arms stretched out his arms and waved wildly. The immature ah ah sounded in the crackling flames, making people feel soft in their hearts.

But I saw that the clothes they were wearing were all puddings and patches. I don’t know whether they were worn out to suit the rags worn by the victims, or they really didn’t have any good clothes to wear.

"How have the past two years been?" An Xu asked.

Feng Nian smiled, "In the beginning, the weather was good and the weather was good, and there was no need to worry about food and drink. Since the tax increase last year, there were floods and droughts, and it became a little bit tight."

Maybe it's the truth, An Xu didn't pursue it, but said: "You also stayed at home for a long time before, whether it's keeping accounts, or some rare snacks, you know. You can look for them in the slack time in the future. As a first-year student, you can’t cope with the twists and turns in life just relying on field production.”

Hearing these words, Fengnian couldn't hold it back any longer. Tears flowed down his nose mixed with snot. He wiped them in embarrassment, and said, "Miss's kindness, I can't repay it in my life."

But he can't completely forget his sister who died in vain. No matter how great the kindness of the young lady is, he is destined to be unable to repay it in this life.I can only admonish the younger generation to abide by the rules of being loyal to the younger generation of Miss's family from generation to generation.

An Xu said: "When I bought you brothers and sisters, I didn't intend to be kind. You provided labor and took care of the business for me. After so many years, it is considered a settlement. Therefore, there is no way to repay your kindness."

Fengnian's voice was choked with sobs, "Yes, my servant has remembered it."

There was a crackling sound in the woodpile, which made the loneliness in the wilderness even more apparent. Zong Che said, "Go and rest. For the sake of the master and servant of Xu'er, I will let the army add more for the rest of the journey." take care of."

Feng Nian didn't dare to stay any longer, when he was at home before, he felt that the young master was the most moody and unfathomable, immediately stood up, the woman also stood up hurriedly, and bowed to leave with him.

An Xu sighed, and sat down on Zongche's arms.

The world is unpredictable. In the past, she placed high expectations on Fengnian. With the scale of her business, after the odd year, Fengnian must be the big shopkeeper of the famous party.

Unexpectedly, due to Daoxiang's temporary surmounting, Fengnian also fell so low.

I didn't notice it at first, but when Feng Nian got up just now, he saw that the top of his head was covered with white hair.

Zong Che rubbed her shoulders and said, "What happened to them now has nothing to do with us. It was their luck that the brothers and sisters were able to come to our house back then, and you taught so much without hiding anything. "

An Xu: It's not easy to say that.

Suddenly remembered something, she sat up straight and said, "Didn't the scout say that there are paddy fields on both sides? Let's go and have a look."

In fact, there is dry land in the south, but there are mostly paddy fields. Some places in the south are very dry, and I don’t know how the situation here is.

Walking out of the army center, both ears are filled with the chaotic voices of the people who followed the army.

Those who can persist in the south until now are basically the families of small landowners. They have family members and food reserves, so they can close the door and stay at home.

In this regard, these people are also very rare to exist. After all, when most people have nothing to eat, those who have something to eat become targets.

For the lowly tenants in the past, it is also necessary to use tactics to win them over at this time.

So An Xu saw several houses, white and fat children in silk and satin mixed with black and thin children in cotton and linen.If he put up the score of the young master, he would be dragged over by his family and reprimanded.

On the tenant side, they pulled their children aside in fear.

An Xu heard the tall, black and thin hunchbacked tenant farmer say to the black and thin boy, "Don't rob things with the young master. You are able to wear such a good cotton padded coat now because it is a gift from your wife. Without the kindness of the old lady, we would have Starved to death, you know?"

The black and skinny child nodded, his big eyes were like black grapes, "I know Dad, I will let the young master do it."

An Xu and Zong Che were not far away, this scene made her feel very uncomfortable.

Is this really the case?

She is also a capitalist herself, but she has never deprived employees of basic benefits.She had heard words of gratitude from employees similar to that of the tenant farmer, but she didn't feel much at that time.

Because in this era, what she gives to her employees is indeed very generous.

But what the tenant farmer said today made her extremely sad.

Zong Che tightened her hand, "What's wrong?"

An Xu continued to walk forward and said, "It's just a little uncomfortable. If I don't know how to cook and my family doesn't have a few acres of Susukida, will I have to live on my knees all my life?"

In fact, she has earned a lot of money. If Zong Che hadn't passed the imperial examination and made some achievements in her official career, she would also be a fat sheep that can be slaughtered at will.

Zong Che smiled and said, "No," he could feel that Xu'er's sympathy was not just for one family, but because he was afraid of the rules in this society.

If you are lowly, you will be lowly all your life.

If you want to change your life, you must have the capital to change your life.

Just like his family and An's family, they don't have a few acres of land. If they need the land of the tenant landlord's family, they will not be able to eat enough all year round. How can they have the heart to study?

He has the books left by his father, but he can also clearly feel that reading when he was often hungry and reading after she came to An's house so that he can eat and drink are completely different. state.

The two of them strolled, gradually getting away from the crowd behind, and a few soldiers trailed behind them far away.

Zong Che saw the mottled ground on the side of the road, and said softly, "The rules of this world are about to change again."

There are rules in the world.

An Xu: You still want to participate in the competition.

But that old emperor seemed to be mentally handicapped. Since Zong Che was asked to take the northern soldiers all the way to appease Jiangnan, how could anyone persuade him to go back?

Running and playing?
And when he asked Zong Che to lead his troops south, didn't he think that a large number of northern soldiers might have symptoms of acclimatization?

Zong Che heard her doubts and said with a smile: "Maybe the second prince is dead, and now I feel that I have the risk of backlash, so let me make a mistake."

Speaking of the second prince, An Xu felt that fate was impermanent again. When she and Zongche went to the northern border, she thought the second prince was the same person.

And such a character should be like the boss in the novel, and shouldn't die so easily.

It was a mile or two away from the camp, but there was still no trace of water. Except for the trees, the crops in the fields and the weeds on the roadside were all withered and yellow.

Half a month later, the army reached the bank of the Qingmo River, and the original small number of victims could now form a large army.
