    If Hongdou were another time-traveling woman, she might have started making tofu, digging ginseng and opening a restaurant. Now, not to mention meeting a prince and general, at least she would have a fortune of ten thousand acres of fertile land.

    But Hongdou is not, Yongning County seems to have everything, even if she often wanders in the county, she doesn't know what she can do.  So she could only accompany Song Qingyun to check the situation of the moat while thinking about her future.

    "Doudou, what do you think that woman is doing?" Just as Hongdou was staring at the willow trees by the moat in a daze, Song Qingyun tugged at her sleeve and asked in a low voice.

    Hong Dou looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a woman in plain brocade clothes standing motionless by the river.

    "Is she going to throw herself into the river?" Hong Dou asked uncertainly.  People who can wear brocade have good financial conditions, so they shouldn't appear alone in the remote corners of the moat.  Seeing that some strands of hair were messily scattered beside her bun, how could an elegant lady allow herself to be so disheveled?  If she was waiting for someone, she should have been paying attention to her surroundings at all times, but she just stood by the river staring at the river without moving.  No matter how you look at it, it looks like a person who wants to commit suicide.

    "You stay here, I'll go over and have a look." Hongdou stared at the woman intently and said, a guy like Song Qingyun used to have too much impact, which easily aroused the vigilance of the other party, and it was easier for a girl of his age to get along with her.  The other party can talk.

    Song Qingyun obviously thought of this too: "Okay, you go over here, I'll watch over here, if you have any questions, just shout, I'll rush over immediately."

    "Okay, you find a hidden place." Hongdou raised her right hand and swung it back, signaling Song Qingyun to back up, while she walked towards the woman.

    "Madam, did you drop something into the river?" Hong Dou stopped walking about one meter away from the woman and asked softly.

    "If you drop something, I can help you get it out. I have a fishing net over there." Seeing that the other party just glanced at her without any reaction, Hong Dou pretended to approach her naturally while pointing at her.  Explain where she and Song Qingyun were staying.

    The woman glanced at the place pointed by the red bean. There were indeed fishing nets and other tools there. Those were the necessary tools Song Qingyun prepared for patrolling the river. She lowered her head and said, "No, I'm just here to take a look."  It's just a view."

    At this time, Hongdou had walked to a distance of about 20 centimeters from her, and she could clearly see the red and swollen eyes of the other party's crying, but she pretended not to see it, and instead sat on the stone beside her and lightly beat her  He raised his head and looked at the woman sincerely with his own calf: "I have walked too much just now, and my legs are a little sore. The scenery here is really beautiful, Madam, don't you mind if I watch it together?"

    "No, I don't mind." How could she mind such a little girl's innocent behavior? This is the past she wants to go back to.

    "I like willow trees the most." Hong Dou looked at the emerald green shrouded in smog, "My father taught me a poem 'I'm gone in the past, Yangliu Yiyi', which probably refers to such a scene."

    "I used to go, Yangliu Yiyi, now I come to think, rain and snow are falling. My father also taught me this sentence. Your father should be a very good father." The woman looked at the official road in the distance.  Said softly.

    "My father is the best father, and my mother is also the best mother, but my mother is sometimes fierce. Madam is so gentle, she must be a very good mother." Hongdou pretended to be ignorant and complained to her mother.  Dear, while talking, secretly observing the woman's expression.

    The woman couldn't help but shed tears when she heard Hong Dou's words: "I'm not a good mother."

    "How come? I think Madam looks like a very good mother." Seeing that she was relieved, Hong Dou continued the conversation along the topic.

    "I'm sorry for my son. I tried my best to care for my husband and raise my son, but ended up being abandoned." The woman seemed to be talking to herself, and seemed to be chatting with Hongdou.  Hongdou also learned a story about her from her mouth.

    It turned out that this woman was the only daughter of a merchant's family when she was young, and she married a boy in the shop.  Everything was fine when the old man was alive, but after the old man passed away, the young man began to expand his business.  Speaking of which, he is also a talent in business. The family business is getting better and better, the family property is getting richer and richer, and the little guy has become a rich man.  When the rich man was doing business abroad, he met a widow who ran a small wine shop by herself.  The people on the side of the locust are like the moon, and the wrists are covered with frost and snow. The rich man fell in love at the first sight.

    The two are inseparable from each other, the rich man is reluctant to let the widow's child become an illegitimate child, and he is also reluctant to let his beloved become a concubine, so let the original spouse give up a place.  When a woman learns that her husband has a new heart,After he wanted to divorce his wife, he thought of committing suicide by throwing himself into the moat.

    "But you didn't do anything wrong. Why did you sacrifice your life for them? It's obviously that ungrateful person who failed you." Hongdou stood up angrily, "You are not the one who is wrong."

    "How can there be a man who makes mistakes in this world? The only ones who make mistakes are wives and mothers." The woman said with a wry smile.

    "What about your children? Are they just watching their mothers being abandoned?" Based on her observations over the past few years, Hongdou knows that this society is not as restrictive as she imagined, and there is no "natural reason"  , destroy human desires", the father's authority is not so unchallengeable.

    "My son is studying abroad now, so how do I know what's going on at home?" When the woman talked about her son, her expression became even more sad. "My son is already a scholar. If there is a mother who was abandoned,  How can I have the face to face the teacher, and how can I embark on an official career. It was I who killed him."

    "But your son can't accept it if you commit suicide, right? A motherless child is like a grass, so I can't take my mother away from me." Hongdou tried to enlighten.

    "My son is already twenty-one, and he can take good care of himself. The loss of his mother is only three years of filial piety. If his biological mother is divorced, it will be difficult for him to be an official in his life." The woman murmured.

    Hongdou couldn't help sighing, these women who don't know how to fight but only know how to compromise, you don't think about yourself and expect someone to cherish you, but she can't say that, this kind of shocking remarks will not be understood by others  , I could only persuade from another angle: "Then have you ever thought that that woman has a child now, will that heartbroken man still think about your son in the future? It is said that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather.  Father will definitely give the family's money and everything to that woman and her child. Your son will get nothing in the end. You are alive, and he still has a relative. When you die, he will really have nothing.  there is none left."

    Hongdou's words made the woman wake up in an instant. If she died, how would the heartbroken man treat his son, care about his daily life, and find him a gentle and virtuous wife?  Will my son's life be ruined by that couple of dogs?

    "Only mother is good in this world." Hongdou changed the famous sentence of later generations, "Only you can protect your son."

    Hong Dou knows that for this kind of woman who has been oppressed for a long time, it is obviously impossible for her to realize herself and fight for herself.  It might as well be for his own son, after all, being a mother is strong, and there is still a possibility of fighting for it.

    "Then what should I do?" The woman had completely given up on the idea of ??death at this time.

    Seeing her bewildered look, Hong Dou instantly understood what she could do, but she had to prepare first, so she pretended to be profound and said: "At this time tomorrow, you will wait for me at Qingfeng Tea House, and I will help you."

    "Okay." The woman replied, at this moment only red beans can bring her a glimmer of hope.  A lifetime is so long, so it doesn't matter if you wait one more day, besides, it might be different.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
