- Heavy snow fell from the sky, and the entire Hongyuan was shrouded in a vast white world.
Baozhong opened the wooden window a crack and looked at the thick white snow that had accumulated overnight in the small courtyard. He was stunned for a long time until he heard a series of coughs behind him, and then he quickly lowered the wooden lattice to block the cold air outside the window.
After a few steps, he knelt down in front of the bed. Seeing his mother lying sickly on the bed, Baozhong felt sour in his heart. The seven-foot-old man's eyes turned red.
The mother raised her hand feebly and gently landed on Baozhong's wrist. Her voice was hoarse: "Don't be like this, sir. Sons of Ren's family are not allowed to cry."
"Mother my son is unfilial and has allowed you to suffer like this."
"Buddha said that people are here to suffer when they live in this world. Maybe I can finally stop suffering this time and go find your father"
"Mom, don't say that. You will get better. Bodhisattva will bless you. Don't talk for now. My son will bring you some hot water. It snowed last night. When you recover, my son will take a good look at you. This snow scene.¡±
I served my mother and drank a few sips of hot water, coaxing my mother to close her eyes and fall asleep again. Then she quietly got up and walked out of the door quietly.
He paced back and forth anxiously in the small courtyard, opening the courtyard door from time to time and looking out. After waiting for a long time, he finally saw his brother who hurried back.
Seeing that his younger brother came back alone, Baozhong asked hurriedly: "What do you say?"
Xizhong said frustratedly: "The doctor refuses to come. He said he will come when the medical fees owed to him are settled."
The doctor is a member of the Xi Feng family, but in fact, his ancestors were Han people who defected to Dangxiang. Because the battle at Baima Mountain was defeated so quickly three years ago, the doctor who accompanied the army also failed to run out, so he stayed in the city. Three years ago, the White Horse Court found out about this doctor's background and planned to convert him to Han nationality and open a clinic on the street. However, the doctor refused. The reason for the rejection was simple. He considered himself a member of the Party. And believe in Buddha.
Since the beginning of the year, Baozhong's family has been unable to afford the doctor's consultation fees. Now they owe one year's debt. Baozhong wants to curse, but he can't. After all, the doctor has been paying for his mother's medical treatment for the past year. More than ten times, it can be considered as the most benevolent and righteous. He clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and remained silent for a long time, then relaxed his grip. After thinking for a while, he said: "I'm going to find Li Yansi!"
Xi Zhong grabbed him and said, "Brother, I was surrounded by Jing Cheng and others on my way back. They wanted to borrow food from our family."
Baozhong shook his head: "Where is the food?" As a member of the Renduo family, Lu Ze, Baozhong originally had a rich family, but in order to take care of the Renduo family left in Hongyuan, more than two hundred mouths devoured him for three years. , no matter how rich the family is, they are already poor now. The Renjia family was not a wealthy family in the Tuoba tribe in Hongyuan, so they were unable to intervene in the distribution of food to the Baimayuan relief party members. They were deducted here and there, and now they are really impoverished.
I only heard Xizhong say: "That's what I told them. Where can there be food now? But they said, if it doesn't work, let you take the lead and lead everyone into the mountains to grab a handful. Those untouchables in the White Horse Department are living extremely happily now." , they robbed our cattle and sheep, we should take them back!"
Baozhong thought for a while and said: "This matter needs to be discussed in the long term. It is no better now than it was then. It is not a last resort and cannot be adopted."
"Brother, life is so difficult. I think they have a good idea. Just lead everyone to have a fight!"
"Don't panic first. Please tell everyone not to be stupid. There is a new Abbot Zhao in Baima Court. Let's take a look at his behavior first. Besides, the food will be distributed tomorrow. Let's talk about it after this juncture. As for today's food, I will Go and borrow it from Li Yansi."
Baozhong walked through the streets and came to the home of his ancestor Li Yansi. He looked at the bumpy brick wall in the corner and the pile of dry firewood piled outside the small door. He couldn't help but secretly sighed. The life of Li Yansi's family was also It¡¯s not easy.
As a prominent figure in the original Qiongxi Town, Li Yansi¡¯s family was definitely not in the same situation as it is today.
When they were defeated, the Ming army occupied half of the town as a garrison. Later, thousands of Han people moved in and took over the houses occupied by the Ming army. Many Dangxiang people who had occupied the houses crowded into Dangxiang in the town. He stayed in the headman¡¯s home from then on. Li Yansi had no choice but to split the mansion. The great ancestor and his family are now crowded into two small courtyards, looking very embarrassed, just like the Baozhong family.
Li Yansi met Baozhong in the flower hall. Hearing that Baozhong said he was here to borrow food, he pressed his fingers on the pear wood table countless times: "Baozhong, I remember you came here seven days ago. That eighty kilograms Did you finish the food so quickly?"
"Zuru, our Ren family has more than two hundred people, how can we find enough"
"Baozhong, I don't have any food left in my house. If you continue to be patient, tomorrow will be the day for food distribution."
"Zuru, my mother is lying on the bedIt has been three days since I went to hospital, but the doctor has stopped treating me and insists that my family pay back the consultation fee. "
"You go back first. I'll tell him later and ask him to go to your house to see your mother. Is your mother feeling cold again?"
"yes."
"Baozhong, it's not that my uncle said something harsh. Your mother is weak and suffers from wind-cold symptoms every three days. The doctor went to diagnose and treat her, but the same thing happened. After the diagnosis and treatment, the medicine was prescribed. Do you have the money to go to a Han pharmacy to get medicine? "
"Zuru, can you think of a way?"
"What can I do?"
"I heard that the food distributed by Baima Yuan was twice as much as what we got"
Li Yansi immediately jumped to his feet, pointed at Baozhong and said: "What do you mean? You mean I deducted your food? Am I that kind of person? Don't you know that everything Ming people send is lost, they say It¡¯s so much, how much can actually be distributed? Besides, don¡¯t you care about the Dangxiang clan members outside the city and don¡¯t ask about it? Even if I don¡¯t give you the full amount, I don¡¯t keep a pound of food for myself! I use it all to give to the clan members. !¡±
Looking at the furious Li Yansi, Baozhong didn¡¯t say anything more. He just said: ¡°Zuru, let¡¯s rent those lands to the Han people. It¡¯s better than letting them go to waste like this.¡±
Hearing this, Li Yansi exploded immediately. He pointed his finger at Baozhong and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about? Baozhong, am I unwilling to rent? Han people are unwilling to rent!"
"But the land rent is too high"
"Where is it higher? It's much less than before! In the past, we could harvest seven bushels per acre of land, but now we only harvest four or five bushels, which is already very little! What's more, there are still two bushels of rent, and the Han people are not renting crops. What? How can you say that I don¡¯t want to rent?¡±
"But today is different from the past. In the past, there were three tribes of slaves working on the land. It's hard to treat the Han people as slaves."
"Baozhong, you are definitely wrong to think this way! Why am I doing this? Is it for myself? Isn't it all for our party members? I have persisted for three years now. As long as everyone keeps standing up , Baimayuan has to nod and agree! Now let¡¯s see who can persist to the end!¡±
"But¡¡"
"Baozhong, we can't go back! I've asked about it, the country is already powerless against Hongyuan. At this time, we party members must focus on one place. Only in this way can we be like the three Same thing, implement self-government! Those lowly slaves can be self-governing, why can¡¯t our noble party members?"
"Zuru, Hongyuan already belongs to the Ming Dynasty, how can we persist? As long as a decisive and decisive figure comes, we will bring disaster upon ourselves."
"But he didn't come, right? The previous Zeng Zhili was not this kind of person. What about this Zhao Zhiran? He has been here for a month and has done nothing. In my opinion, he is not this kind of person either."
