Chapter 248 Distance

Uncle Cheng said with a simple and honest smile, "No wonder Master Chu and the others are so powerful. They also have rice and potatoes. They are smart!"

"Yeah! It's been a long time since I saw you. My grandfather and the others never said that it is possible to grow vegetables on a snowy day." Cheng Xianhou's brother-in-law said.

Uncle Cheng was born to Mrs. Cheng's concubine. Mrs. Cheng's concubine was also the daughter of the official family. She didn't come with her when she was exiled.

Therefore, Uncle Cheng was almost brought up by the mother of the Cheng family. He was only a few years old when he came to Youzhou, and he was also an extremely intelligent person.

However, the difficult environment and the status of an exile limited his progress.

Mrs. Cheng also had seven or eight sons. Several died on the way to exile. After arriving in Youzhou, his temper remained unchanged because of the arrogant young master.

was beaten to death by local bullies, and some were framed to death. In the end, only three sons survived.

The Cheng family are all weak scholars. They are full of poems and books that are useless, so they reason with the locals?

Whatever you say will be a futile talk of chickens and ducks. For example, a brother of the Cheng family and a local villager bun, scuffled in the court of the county magistrate.

The local dumpling said: "Three seven equals twenty four"

Cheng's brother said: "Three seven equals twenty one."

The two of them asked the county magistrate to judge them. After hearing this, the county magistrate hit the Cheng family with twenty big boards and released the local villagers without charge.

The Cheng family brother is not convinced!

The magistrate of    said, "Thirty-seven-twenty-one is true, but the fault lies in you, a talented exile who is entangled with illiterate villagers."

The brother of Cheng's family was beaten 20 times, and his body was hurt and his mind was also greatly affected by his anger.

The eldest brother of the Cheng family is Cheng Xianhou's father, and he never reasoned with the local bumpkins.

Which girl wants to be his concubine, he can only take her as his concubine, because they are family members.

You can’t lift your hands, you can’t lift your shoulders, and you can’t even dream of hitting someone out, not even a village girl!

Because of their Uncle Song, the local business gentry and local tyrants and petty officials will give them a little face to the Cheng family.

makes their lives less difficult, and they are still richer than most of the Youzhou buns.

Therefore, a lot of business gentry and local tyrants and small officials wanted to marry their daughters. His second brother and his wife had a good relationship and had a son.

It's not that the eldest of the Cheng family and the others have a bad relationship, but that he, as the eldest son, wants to support the family, and his father refuses to step down from the altar in the pretense of exile.

Buddha said: If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell!

The eldest of the Cheng family is so degenerate, one has two, and the local bully villagers with many brothers also want to stuff their sister into him as a concubine.

He took it all at once, and their family had labor...

Uncle Cheng saw his eldest brother degenerate, the other brothers were forced to death, and his mother was heartbroken. At the age of fifteen, he single-handedly established the Youzhou government office.

He was handsome and handsome, and his eloquence was so eloquent that he conquered Lord Futai and betrothed his youngest daughter to him.

Since then, the Cheng family has lived a clean life for several years in the local area under the cover of the Futai adults.

Until later, the Song family, the Yang family, and the Wang family were all exiled to Youzhou, and Lord Futai was also unlucky.

Their Cheng family went back to the pre-liberation period, and they were still the kind that were more hard-pressed than before the liberation.

Because they were not exiled together, in another town two hundred miles away from their village.

General Song learned that they were living so hard, so he moved into their village in a rage, and the villagers dared not say they disagreed.

why? Because General Song has a hard fist!

When Taifu Cheng was exiled, the new emperor had just ascended the throne, and everything was waiting to be done. His Majesty the emperor was very busy.

didn't have time to pay attention to and suppress them, so they were killed and injured countless times while they were still okay.

When General Song was exiled, the emperor's dragon chair was already firmly seated.

The emperor had a lot of time to pay attention to them, and Jin Yiwei often came to Youzhou to check the situation.

Cheng Taifu's calligraphy and paintings can no longer be sold. It's not that his paintings are bad, but that no one dares to buy them.

There was pressure from the local county government and the main boss. Their families were living like thin ice, where would there be land for them to grow!

At this time, everyone saw the tender seedlings growing out of the snow, and they were so excited that tears filled their eyes.

"Second brother, we will all have green vegetables to eat in the future." They hadn't tasted green vegetables for several months.

"Yeah, third brother, we still have rice to eat!" The second child of the Cheng family burst into tears.

The brothers of the Yang family also hugged happily. They once thought they would starve to death this winter.

The two brothers of the Wang family were even more in tears. Although they were shy sons, they used to wear fine clothes and jade food.

"Don't cry, what are the big men like, hurry up and dig the snow!" An uncle of the Song family shouted loudly.

"Yes, yes, Uncle Song is right." The young people hurriedly worked hard.

They have been planting vegetables for five days in a row, and the first one was planted as long as a finger.

Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve. Master Chu Shanxia sent a message and invited them all to have a New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow.

Everyone in the cave was so excited!

Especially the girls, who turned out their best clothes and wore them.

At this time, Jiang Xinyan at the foot of the mountain is leading everyone to set up the venue. There is no river or pond in this piece of ice.

Anyway, the thick ice will not crack, let alone tens of thousands of people, it is not a problem to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.

Jiang Xinyan asked: "Husband, do you want them to bring their own benches? How many hours will this performance take?"

"If you can't stand for a few hours on the order, bring your own bench." Chu Lixuan said to the person beside him.

Those who are training, don't bring any benches.

Subordinates surnamed Chu, Zhao Yu and Wei Dabin know their Master Chu very well, they know the meaning with just one look and one sentence.

For the New Year's Eve dinner, ten large vegetables are prepared. The first batch of seaweed moss they plant can be picked, and the cabbage can be eaten, but the radish has not grown up yet.

But they had enough potatoes, and no one knew how the mountain of potatoes got there.

Chu Yi and the others thought it was brought in by Zhao Yu's Jinyiwei.

Zhao Yu thought it was shipped by Chu Yi and the others, and no one was ashamed to ask.

why! Because they both took the time to pay attention to each other, and neither found any clues.

They both thought that their martial arts did not reach the height of the other.

Therefore, they were all in groups, and they practiced the magic tricks like Saburo desperately.

No one ever doubted that it was planted by their grandfather himself.

Chu Lixuan also knows their contest, so what's up with him?

Mr. Xinxin has a saying that is good, you don't ask, I don't tell, this is distance.

You asked, I didn’t say it, this is estrangement, you asked, I said it, this is trust.

The opportunity is right in front of you, you don't ask yourself, this is the distance between us.
