Traveling through life as a widow: six sons to support her in her old age

Chapter 235 Yu Zitian's Thoughts

Yu Ye was conscripted into the army. Yu Ziqing was very envious and wanted to let his two sons go.

But both sons had children and were living a good life at home, so neither of them was willing to go.

Yu Ziqing cursed loudly, saying that they were all cowards, one by one.

Yujin and Yuyin don’t want to go. Didn’t their uncle die on the battlefield?

The new emperor has been on the throne for only two years, and there are internal and external troubles and wars everywhere.

There are twice as many military officers as civil officials in the court.

They are just ordinary people, living one day at a time. No one knows how long this emperor can last. After all, the previous one only served for eleven or twelve years.

If I go there myself, it will just be one more corpse.

So on the day of his departure, Tamano left alone.

Cheng Panpan cried out of breath. "I regret why I agreed to let my son go to the battlefield. He is my only son."

Yu Zitian smiled without saying anything and took Cheng Panpan home.

Liu Dani sneered, not everyone can return home in glory, some may even die on the battlefield.

Yu Ziqing did not go out, but asked Liu Dani about Yu Zitian's reaction. Liu Dani was full of impatience, "Yuye's mother cried heartbreakingly, but the third child did not react. I was also surprised. The third child only has this one son, why did he not react at all? Isn't he afraid that the child will not come back, and he will have no descendants?"

"No, no, that's not right at all. The third child is the smartest one. He won't do anything without confidence."

"If there's anything wrong, why don't you just go and ask him?"

Yu Ziqing only knew that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.

There was no rice left at home. Liu Dani didn't care what Yu Ziqing was thinking. She opened the door and went out. "There is water next to you. Don't keep crying there. People who don't know would think I am abusing you."

"Wait a minute, help me go to the third brother's house. I want to ask him if he knows something. Otherwise, why would he let the Tamano District serve in the army? There are wars everywhere now."

"What does their war have to do with us? You should worry about your legs, or go to the fields. I can't finish all the work by myself."

"What kind of work? What do you want two sons for?" Yu Ziqing was very curious now and he had to find out.

"Okay, okay, I'll help you go, but you ask the questions yourself, I won't help you."

"understood."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Zitian walked in, "Brother, how have you been these days?"

Yu Ziqing patted the edge of the bed and said, "Third brother, please sit down. I want to ask you something."

"Why did you let Tamano join the army?"

"Do you know how dangerous it is?"

"What can we do? He has reached the age of marriage but has not yet married, and I don't have the money to let him marry. Now he is given five taels of silver to go to the battlefield, and he doesn't have to spend money to marry. If he makes contributions on the battlefield and performs great deeds, then won't we all be able to rise to heaven?"

"What if he returns wrapped in his horsehide?"

"Then his mother and I will go down to accompany him. We won't let him go alone. Baozhu is married now, and we don't have any thoughts about him. Brother, don't say I'm cruel. You don't know that a penny can make a hero lose."

"But you..."

"Brother, please stop trying to persuade me. His mother is crying and blaming me at home. I can't stand it anymore, so I ran to your place to hide. Brother, please don't lie down all day. Get up and walk around when you have nothing to do. If you really become paralyzed one day, you will be the one who suffers.

I won't say any more. I'd better go back and take a look. What if she faints from crying? Sister-in-law, you have worked hard during this period. Sister-in-law, I have a suggestion. You can help your daughter-in-law take care of the children and let them do some embroidery. This way, everyone's life will be better."

"understood."

Yu Zitian shook his head. It was because they didn't listen to advice that their lives became like this.

His son went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, so he went home to pack up and go to the town to help his son-in-law slaughter pigs. Only by staying away from his elder brother could he plan for his own family.

"That's fine, no need to ask, they came to tell you on their own initiative."

"No, I still feel it's not right."

"If it's not right, then you can figure it out yourself. I have something else to do, so I'll be out for a while."

"Which wild man are you going to find again? Why don't you go see your grandson?"

Liu Dani mocked, "I don't know whether he is a grandson or something else. You can see for yourself. I don't want to make myself angry."

"How many times have I told you that he is your grandson, it's absolutely true. They are all living well, why are you still having trouble? What's wrong with him having three wives and four concubines? Why are you so petty?"

"He is an official with a huge fortune. What do you have? Two thatched cottages."

"Come on, come on. I won't argue with you anymore. What's the difference if you take it with me now? Am I angry?"

"You're not angry because you're counting on me to support you. Yu Ziqing, if you have the ability, go earn some money and support your family. Why are you counting on me?"

Yu Ziqing was so shameless, "Pointing at you is also a skill."

Liu Dani left angrily. She would kill this bastard sooner or later.

The desert is solitary and straight, and the long river falls into the sun.

Lan Qiyan, wearing a headscarf, sat on a sand dune and wrote down his thoughts.

About a hundred meters away from the sand dunes, there are densely packed people farming.

She has only one request for the people here: to have more children, plant more trees and maintain sustainable development.

However, at the speed at which the sand dunes are moving, the crops that people have worked so hard to grow will be completely eroded within a month.

A blade of grass can block the wind, so Lan Qiyan decided to use new modern technology for sand dune management in this fictional dynasty, that is, the front-blocking and back-pulling afforestation technology, to turn the vast sea of ​​sand into an oasis.

This is a great project. The results may not be seen until twenty or thirty years, or even until the end of her life. As the saying goes, those who plant trees will enjoy the shade. She is benefiting future generations, doing good in the present and for future generations to come. She feels a great sense of honor.

But it doesn’t matter, just keep going.

As for the people who will carry out the execution, there is never a shortage of people here. Chu Huai has plenty of them.

Just send the criminals to the northern border. It will be easier than sending them to Lingnan.

Later, I will ask Lao Wu to write a letter to his father and mention this suggestion.

Oh, she is so busy. She is such a good person who cares about the country and the people.

Even in her dreams she was worried about the affairs of her country and family. With this kind of awareness, who else does she want to ask?

"Haha...who else...Pah pah pah." He had a mouthful of sand.

It has been three days since he came here, and Yu Zian has not had the chance to be alone with his wife.

On the first day, the old lady was not used to the local climate, so she stayed with him.

The next day, Yumian wanted to hear a story, so she told it.

On the third day, Yu Xiu shamelessly asked for agricultural knowledge, and she told him.

Today is the fourth day. His wife is standing on a high sand dune and pointing out the scenery. Is it appropriate for him to go now?
