Poor family mother and son

Chapter 714 Loyalty
"You must be obedient!" Chu Qing's voice was a little harsh, but also a little helpless.

In the nine years of getting along, even if they may not see each other every day, the relationship is not shallow. Chu Qing absolutely does not want these lovely big boys to lose anything for her.

In Chu Qing's heart, these men who are even older than her current age are big boys, in their 30s and [-]s, just in their prime.

They were guards, and they were all single. She clearly didn't want them to lose the chance to start a family and start a career because of her, and they might even sacrifice their lives.

"You are not my servants, you have not signed a contract of sale with me!" Chu Qing said: "You don't have to follow me to take risks, protect yourself and live your own life well, this is the meaning of your life!"

"Stop talking, we're not leaving!" The guards shouted in unison, and there were eight female guards among them.

"Don't make trouble!" Chu Qing scolded the girls: "I know what they want to say, they want to say that they have friendship with me, but you are not, we have only known each other for a few days? Don't get close to me, let you Go and go!"

Those boys had a large number of people, and they had been with him for a long time, Chu Qing regarded them as hard nuts to crack, and planned to deal with them later.

The girls were relatively easy to persuade, and Chu Qing was going to dismiss them first.

"This has nothing to do with the contract of selling one's life," Xiangzi said, "we won't leave even if you tell us!" His attitude was very firm.

Back then, when Hong Liang wanted to send more retired soldiers to Chu Qing, Chu Qing once said that he had more energy than he wanted, and that being able to accept the current number of people was the limit of his ability, because "I don't want these heroes to go to the battlefield to bleed, and go down There will be tears in the battlefield.”

People should live like people!

The contract of sale is different from the contract of employment. Once you sign this thing, you will give yourself as an object to others. Whether to beat or kill depends on the mood of the owner.

They are all people who have died countless times on the battlefield. Life and death have long been less important. Instead, dignity is what they value most.

There are also many people who are forced to enlist because of the tight war, and conscription is also a kind of apportionment-no matter how many people in your family, as long as there are adult males, you have to join the army.

This is different from Hong Liang's concern for the soldiers in the barracks. Soldiers are a kind of resource for the general. Without these soldiers, he is a poor general who can do nothing.

Generals who treat their soldiers well, such as Hong Liang, are considered benevolent; more generals beat or scold their subordinates, and their intention is not to abuse them, but "You belong to my Zhang family army or my Li family army, you are my people, you are not Obedient how to do" is a logical behavior.

And most of the boys under Chu Qing's subordinates were from refugees, and they were dragged into the military camp involuntarily. Don't you go?Then you don't want to live anymore, the country is in trouble, how can you feed you refugees who waste rations for nothing?
Therefore, according to his thinking inertia, Chu Qing subjectively defined them as heroes who fought for the country, and gave these refugees who were born as refugees and could only be refugees after retiring with great dignity.

When these retired soldiers came to Chu Qing's place, they thought it was the same as the barracks, because they also lived in groups, but Chu Qing gave them brick houses, returned the kang, and burned coal for heating, not like soldiers.

After knowing that the boss is a woman, the gossip became more and more, such as "Old women should go home and take care of the children. It's a shame to show their faces!"

What "a woman can be an official, it doesn't matter how many men she has on the kang, and how many men she sleeps with to become a 'sleeping officer'!"

They didn't shut up until the money they could make from selling chickens and ducks improved their financial difficulties.

The boss hasn't learned the Tao yet, these "chicken dogs" ascended to the sky first.

Needless to say, snubbing and making things difficult, those who are higher in rank than the boss, snubbing and making things difficult are simply their usual tricks. Even those magistrates with low official positions seem to be respectful, but they never take the boss seriously.

Chu Qing didn't let them sell themselves to her, which made them feel helpless for a period of time, but after getting along with them, they realized that Chu Qing really didn't treat them as objects or assets, but treated each other as equals and helped each other .

She was right, but it didn't apply to the boys of her Chu family.

Then I heard that the boss is a widow, and the mouth is even worse: "The widow's legs are crossed, she just takes the benefits and doesn't remarry", "Pointing at the hot kang to say that the heart is cold, the men outside the door line up"...

Chu Qing has an instinctive fondness for soldiers, which stems from the education she received since she was a child, but most of the soldiers in ancient times, except perhaps some generals, did not have the belief and sense of responsibility of "willing to serve the country with this stature";

For a while, it is said that the boss does not know how expensive rice and grain are, so it is only when she thinks about it;

It's that being a soldier can earn military pay, save food for the family, and if you become a military officer, you can be promoted and get rich.

That's the purpose.

In other words, this mode of thinking is: You are my cat, dog, or object, and you are at my disposal.

When they had shops, land, and even wives and children, and lived a stable life with their wives and children on the kang, their boss ran around all year round, suffered neglect, made things difficult, criticized, and wronged.

No, it's not equal. In their view, their boss is simply their slave. Don't look at the boss's wealth, it's all earned by others, and they have to feed them and distribute them. Who can do it? ?

Chu Qing thought that the loyalty of ancient people was based on brainwashing education since childhood, strict class hierarchy, and severe punishment.

It really has nothing to do with the bondage.

And once their boss has money and benefits, he always distributes it to them, one o'clock today and one o'clock tomorrow, all the time, and never complains about how much grievances he has suffered and how much bitterness he has accumulated outside.

What the boys didn't know was that they didn't shut up. Even the people in the military household area who were healthy and safe, Chu Qing took special care of them. Now because the Chu family's purchase point is blocked, although they didn't say anything too much , but also complained that "Master Cotton is unreliable".

The boss just wanted to advocate that they raise chickens and ducks to fight against the locust plague. What did they say?

That's why there are words such as eagle dog, running dog, minion and so on.

Just talking about the criticism and grievances from the common people, isn't that enough?

But on the other hand, the contract of sale is also a kind of guarantee, a guarantee for their life, old age, sickness and death, and the master is responsible for it.

Over the years, many outsiders, such as the masters and housekeepers of high-ranking officials, have run over them: "Don't act as if you are so loyal to your master. You can't eat enough coarse grains every day, and you still have to worry about big fish and meat for others!"

They thought it was better to have a contract of selling their lives so that they could rely on them.

Whose family supports a group of people not for their own enjoyment?Their boss is not.

The phrase "heroes" elevates their ideological realm, and the phrase "bleeds on the battlefield and tears on the battlefield" expresses their bitterness.

Not to mention that the boss needs to go to the court alone to fight against a group of mouths that are more vicious than shrews.

These words not only can't hurt them, but also stimulate their desire to fight. To beat them up, they have to teach a few words: "If something happens to you, will your master give up his life to save you? My master will!

How much meat do you usually eat a month?Can you eat fresh vegetables in winter?I have meat every meal, and when I get tired of eating, I still eat green vegetables in winter!I still have private properties, farms, shops, my master gave them!
Do you dare to say that your master is wrong?I dare, my master is wrong, we can tell anyone who sees it!

But let me tell you, we can bully our master, but if you say something is not good, it won't work! "

So Xiangzi said that it had nothing to do with the contract of selling one's body. What he thought in his heart was: a scholar dies for his confidant.
