It is said that what you think about every day is what you dream about at night. Wei Zijun knew that he had been thinking too much about the Wei family and the prince recently, so he had nightmares.
Looking at Sanniang who was sweating in her arms, He Zexu felt very bad.
The Wei family and the Qi family were the source of her nightmares. She had had such nightmares countless times during the days and nights when she was not with her over the years.
Even though he was already by her side, she still had nightmares like this, which meant that his arrival did not make her feel more secure.
It seems that we still need to find a way to make her feel safe.
He Zexu was thinking that the fiefdom she wanted from her father was just an extra city for her.
It was still early before dawn, and Wei Zijun fell into a drowsy sleep again, but He Zexu suffered from insomnia.
An idea flashed through his mind, to take Sanniang and the children away from here and go to a farther place. The family could live a peaceful life away from right and wrong.
However, he soon despised the idea he just had.
It's easy to leave, but after that, as long as Mrs. Wei is here and Mrs. Qi is here, Sanniang's worries will not dissipate.
Do you want her to live in fear all her life?
After dawn, Wei Zijun opened his eyes and found that the seat next to him was empty.
After lying down for a while, I got up to wash up. I heard my daughter Ruyi's happy laughter outside. When I opened the door, I saw that it was He Zexu who had made a bamboo basket, spread some rice underneath, and tied sparrows for his daughter.
"Mom, daddy said he would roast the sparrows for me later." Ruyi saw her and happily showed her a dozen sparrows in the cage.
"Well, if you're not afraid of getting freckles on your face, just eat it." Wei Zijun responded casually.
Unexpectedly, when Ruyi heard this, she immediately became anxious: "Dad, my mother said eating roasted sparrow will cause spots on your face. My daughter shouldn't have those. It's so ugly."
Hahahaha, He Zexu burst out laughing when he heard this. Why is his daughter so cute and so easy to be deceived?
"Silly boy, your mother is teasing you. If you don't believe me, look at your father's face. Are there any spots?" He Zexu leaned over as he spoke.
If Ruyi really stepped forward and looked carefully, there was no such thing.
"No, dad has eaten countless roasted birds in the past ten years." He Zexu comforted his daughter.
"Mother, how can you lie to others?" Ruyi asked Wei Zijun, is this the same mother who never made such a joke with them?
In other families, the mother is kind and the father is strict. How come it's the other way around when it comes to her family?
Faced with his daughter's grievances and questions, Wei Zijun looked at the man next to him, "Okay, very good, he is very good at making children happy!"
"Sparrows will eat the food that farmers have worked so hard to grow. If you take your children to catch them, you can eliminate them for the people." The daughter-in-law looked a little panicked and laughed to excuse herself.
Wei Zijun nodded: "Really? You only know that sparrows can steal food, but you don't know that sparrows have very strong reproductive capabilities. They can breed two to four clutches per year. If we calculate the average number of sparrows per clutch is five.
Each pair of sparrows can produce ten to twenty chicks each year.
Sparrows fly in swarms to farmland and drying fields in search of grains to eat in autumn and winter. They indeed waste a lot of grain and cause losses to the people.
However, sparrows mainly feed on insects during the breeding season, especially during the brooding period. They can eliminate a large number of harmful insects and bring huge benefits to agriculture and forestry. Compared with the two, the merits outweigh the faults. Therefore, sparrows cannot be considered a hazard.
things,
As long as we find ways to take certain measures to reduce the harm during the autumn harvest season in rural areas."
After hearing what she said, the two men were a little stupid and looked at each other. They were just catching a few birds for fun. How could they be promoted to agriculture and forestry?
The most important thing is, how does she know so much?
How many broods does such an ordinary bird breed in a year and how many birds are in a brood are known in such detail?
Moreover, what she said seemed to make sense.
"Dad, how about letting these birds go?" Ruyi suddenly didn't want to eat roasted birds.
I feel that if I really eat these birds, I will be on the same side as the pests on the crops.
"Okay, then let it go. Daddy will go back up the mountain to hunt pheasants for you. The meat is delicious and has more meat." His daughter said this, and He Zexu had no choice but to follow.
"Aren't you two hungry? Are you not going to have breakfast?" Wei Zijun looked at the father and daughter and asked softly.
"Mom, what's the food? Didn't you agree to eat braised noodles on the street last night?" Ruyi just remembered that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet.
The younger one put the birds in the cage, the older one put the bamboo basket away, and the father and daughter followed Wei Zijun outside.
"Mom, how do you know so much?" Ruyi asked curiously.
He Zexu pricked up his ears to listen. He also wanted to know this question. He couldn't figure out why Sanniang knew so much about Que.
Wei Zijun was startled by his daughter's question. How did he know?
In fact, she has done this many times since she was a child. She obviously has no memory of where she saw or learned it, but she just knows it.
"I saw it in the book." Wei Zijun responded.
She is already very skilled at it, and she uses this method to deal with things she cannot explain the source of.
If someone asked her seriously which book it was and what its title was, she would say that she couldn't remember where she saw it.
After all, no matter how good a memory is, it is impossible for someone to remember every book they read so clearly.
Ruyi nodded, but He Zexu looked at Wei Zijun thoughtfully. Her reaction made him feel a little weird, as if she didn't tell the truth.
A family of three went to a noodle shop on the street and ordered three bowls of mutton noodles.
"Dad, I can't eat so much, so I'll give you half. Mom said the leftovers are a waste and not good." When the noodles were served, Ruyi didn't move her chopsticks, but discussed it with He Zexu.
"You eat first and give it to daddy later." He Zexu responded to his daughter with a smile.
I can't understand what's going on in those families that favor sons over daughters. What a wonderful daughter, so well-behaved and clingy. Every sound of "Daddy" is sweet and sticky, and my heart feels soft when I hear it.
"Why don't you give the leftovers to daddy? You take them away first and leave half of them for me." Ruyi said while measuring with her hands.
Hearing this, He Zexu stretched out his chopsticks and took away half the bowl of noodles. He also took some of the mutton in his bowl and gave it to his daughter: "Eat more mutton in winter, it will keep you warm."
Seeing the father and daughter like this, Wei Zijun couldn't help but smile on his face and gave him some of the mutton in his bowl.
He Zexu's bowls were piled high like this.
The diners in the noodle shop couldn't help but look at this family of three. The man was handsome and mighty, the woman was beautiful and dignified, and the little one was handsome and well-behaved.
"That's the lord of our six cities and the young master. Could it be that the other one is King Ji?" Someone recognized Wei Zijun and guessed in a low voice.
"No way? That lucky king of Anyu Kingdom?" The companion next to him was very doubtful.
The city lord has always been modest and low-key, and the people in these six cities all know it, but how can King Ji of Anyu Kingdom be like this?
As a prince, how can he eat in such a messy snack shop? The point is that he and the city lord's child are too close to each other, and they seem to have a better relationship than their own children.
"Not to mention, the young master of the city lord's family looks very similar to Prince Ji. Is there a possibility that King Ji and our city lord were originally husband and wife?
The reason why it has not been disclosed to the public is because it is inconvenient to fight for power? Have you forgotten the previous rumors? There is someone else behind our city lord?" Some people observed very carefully and thought quite boldly.
Speaking of this, I happened to see the Ji Dynasty looking towards them...
