Farm with space

Chapter 5

The second wife married Bian Erye in the early years of love and love, and gave birth to Sanniang, Wulang, Qiniang, Yuxi, and after the birth of Twenty Lang, the differences between the second wife's father Yao Taifu and Bian's family became more and more serious. In the end, he became a political enemy.As a result, the second wife gradually fell out of favor.

The eldest son of the Bian family, the eldest son of the eldest son, the father of the eldest son, Bian Yiye, used to be the commander-in-chief stationed in Beixiling. Due to a conspiracy, Beidi invaded from the south, the city fell and the army was defeated, and the people of Li were killed and injured countless times.Master Bian committed suicide in fear of crime, hoping that the Bian family would be spared from being implicated.

The so-called one emperor and one courtier, the newly enthroned emperor was so angry that after choosing another general to successfully repel Beidi, all fourteen households in the two branches of the Bian family ransacked and exiled to Nanzhang outside the Guan.

If they can wait until the emperor of the next dynasty ascends the throne and issue an amnesty order, they may become the last branch of the Bian clan when they return to Beijing. The current Bian clan will become the Bian clan because of their departure.However, even so, they still call themselves the Bian clan.

Taifu Yao made a mistake in this matter.Even though the second wife pleaded hard, Yao Taifu remained indifferent, and did not show up to see the second wife and the Bian family on the way to exile.

It is conceivable that the second wife is not welcomed by the Bian family.

After several hardships and came to Nanzhang, the original owner of Yuxi's body found all kinds of excuses to ask to sleep and eat with the second wife, fearing that others would harm the second wife.

The first sister Sanniang and Qiniang had already married to avoid exile, and the first brother Wulang Yuxian was far away overseas and had not returned. The original owner and the [-]th Lang Yuhong were young at the time and did not contribute much to farming.

The concubine Liulang Yujing and ten Lang Yucheng became the main farmer in the family, and Aunt Zhang and Aunt Lin didn't pay attention to the second wife even more.The original owner felt that Second Master Bian had already given birth to the idea of ​​pampering his concubine and destroying his wife, and the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became.

The people of the clan don't want to see the second lady, if they are dismissed by the second master Bian again, there will be no way out.

Therefore, a plan sprouted in her mind.Her thoughts were not vicious enough to kill Aunt Zhang and Aunt Lin, so she set her mind on Second Master Bian.

If Second Master Bian is no longer humane, and cannot pamper Aunt Zhang and Aunt Lin, will the second wife be spared from punishment?

The more the original owner thought about it, the more feasible it became.She started to say she was sick at home, in order to prevent the surprise attack on Bian Erye, and to cover up if she was injured.

Born in Jiangmen's family, the original owner knew some traps and practical boxing skills since childhood.When the New Year was approaching, the original owner took advantage of Bian Erye to exchange New Year goods with the outsiders of Nanzhang Pass, and designed a trap on the passing mountain path.

It was dark at that time, and Erye Bian was carrying a lot of New Year's goods on his body, which made it difficult for him to move. He was also physically and mentally exhausted from farming, so he accidentally fell into a trap just as the original owner expected.The original owner flew out from the grass, raised his foot and hit the lower back of Master Bian's front body.

Second Master Bian knocked the original owner away from the trap with a painful slap, causing her to roll down the hillside.

The original owner knew that her kick injured Master Bian but he would not die.

Inspired by the idea that filial piety comes first, the more she thought about it afterwards, the more she felt that she was wrong and that she was an unfilial villain.Even if the parents make thousands of mistakes, the children cannot be unfilial.

She was wounded and sneaked back into the room without disturbing others. With countless remorse and guilt towards Second Master Bian, she lay down beside the Second Madam in tears and died.

Fortunately, the original owner smoked Anshen grass in the sleeping room before going out. The sleeping second wife did not know that her daughter had left. Actually came alive.

No one doubted that Yuxi's soul could not get out of bed for three days after the original owner complained of illness at home.

The Second Master Bian, who was found, lay on the bed for half a month before getting out of bed, one month before going to the ground, and half a year before returning to human nature.

The grandparents of the Bian family died in exile.At that time, the patriarch of the Bian clan had not been determined.After this accident, Bian Erye suspected that someone did not want him to be the patriarch and was assassinated.Since then, he has stated that he will no longer run for the patriarch and work in a low-key manner.

And those Bian family villagers who found Bian Erye thought that the trap was dug by a nearby Orion outside the Guan, and that Bian Erye was tired from farming and accidentally slipped to his waist after walking at night.Tired from farming, they have no energy or energy to think about it.

Therefore, no one suspected Yuxi of the whole matter.

Yuxi, who recalled her thoughts from memory, was a little depressed, her eyes fell on the sea pearl, and she was hesitating whether to sleep with the pearl in her heart tonight.

In the end, Yuxi, who was tossing and turning again, reluctantly took Haizhu into her mouth.

The next morning, after breakfast, Erfang and the others went out to do farming with dry food for lunch and rice water.

Yuxi followed the male from the second room, separated from the four when they reached the intersection, and walked towards the mountains in the other direction.

Second Master Bian originally wanted to call Yuxi to stop, looked at her back, and thought that after marrying into her husband's family, she would still have to work in farming, so she let her go.

Bian Erye plus Yuhong, Yujing, and Yucheng, the four of them are mainly responsible for spring rice plowing and developing arable land for paddy fields.

For men farming and women weaving, there are not enough people to plow the fields. Moreover, the cloth woven by women is extremely low due to the limited production of spring silkworms, which cannot be exchanged for daily necessities.Men are responsible for teaching heavy farm work, while women are responsible for lighter farm work such as planting vegetables and weeding.

Although Yuhong is only twelve years old and can't help much, Erye Bian still teaches him hand in hand, hoping that he will be able to support himself in the future instead of relying on his father and brother.

Second Master Bian usually asked Yuhong to go home early to learn calligraphy on the courtyard floor.If he doesn't understand anything, he can ask the second lady.This is also the only opportunity for the second wife to communicate with her son.

Because the second wife is not seen by the people of Bianjia Village, she is responsible for raising livestock in the backyard of the house, arranging rice seeds, rice milling, washing clothes, etc., and sometimes weaving cloth with looms, because the spring silkworms obtained are less silky and not silky. Many, not a single one was woven in a year.If you want to wear clothes, it is better to exchange grain with outsiders.

In the entire Bianjia Village, only the second wife may have the opportunity to stay at home and weave.

Aunt Zhang and Aunt Lin go out in different directions from Yuxi and the others. They are mainly responsible for planting, weeding, fertilizing and picking various vegetables.

Yuxi is mainly responsible for planting melons and fruits, picking wild vegetables, and digging spring bamboo shoots on the unclaimed earth hills. It can be said that most of the new agricultural products are developed by Yuxi.

For example, if Yuxi finds wild yam in a mountain, she will make a record so that she will not find it, and record again on the ground at the foot of the mountain what food species there are.

If the hills are far away and this species is easier to transplant, she will gradually transplant them to nearby uncultivated hills for easy planting and management.The results will be taken home, said to be wild vegetables and food for Aunt Zhang to cook.

I remember that when Yuxi brought wild buckwheat home for the first time, Aunt Zhang refused to cook it because the harvest of vegetables was not good, and she couldn't resist the temptation to use it as a side dish.Finally, bite the bullet and cook the wild buckwheat.

After it was out of the pot, the second lady was frightened and refused to let Yuxi try the dishes, so she ate the wild buckwheat before Yuxi.At that time, Yuxi was deeply moved and accepted the second wife in her heart.

Nanzhang is located in the south of the border.Although there are many mountains and little land here, fortunately, most of the mountains are earth mountains that can be used to open up wasteland, and the land is fertile and suitable for farming.

The rice here is divided into early rice and late rice. There are two rice harvests, no more than once a year in the north. The unexpected two harvests allow the Bian and Yi people who have little land to open up to survive.

Although it is not close to the sea, the inland sea flows in and turns into a river after bypassing many hills.

In Yijia Village, which is good at drying salt, more people know water. After the busy season of farming, they will go fishing in the river, while Bianjia Village will go hunting.At that time, there will be fish and meat, and the life of the people in the two villages will be a little easier.

Salt is managed by salt officials and cannot be sold privately.Because Nanzhang is already outside the border, the Yi family's homemade salt is only used for self-sufficiency and for the surrounding villages to exchange some daily necessities. The so-called mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so nothing will happen.
