Overworked employee Su Ying died from continuous overtime and transmigrated to the second year of Zhenguan in the Great Tang dynasty. She became Su Ying, the eldest daughter of Su Buchang, the Chan...
Chapter 443 Don’t Leave Regrets in This Life
"Sister, are we just going to dig it out like this? Won't it kill it?" Xiao Tao looked at it, holding her breath and said carefully.
No one dared to take action, so Su Ying and Yang Chunhua took action.
Su Ying took action because she didn't think the white radish was that magical, it was just an ordinary crop.
Yang Chunhua played a lot when she was young, so she was not surprised by it.
The others did not dare to do anything. These were the seedlings brought out from the palace, and they were afraid that they would kill them.
The two men gently peeled the seedlings out of the wooden lattice one by one. Some of the seedlings had strong roots that were entangled in the wooden lattice.
Each seedling grows to more than half a foot tall, with four or five green leaves and strong roots.
Pei Sanlang, Zhou Wulang, Qin Tieniu and others had already plowed the more than one acre of dry land again, making ridges and digging holes at equal intervals.
Take out the seedlings, put them in a bamboo basket, carry them to the edge of the field, plant them carefully one by one, and then water them.
The village elders and women all gathered around to watch; even the laborers who were building the school stopped their work to watch.
Bai Diezi! A forbidden item in the palace, seeing the fairy face for the first time, becoming a mortal, it feels like a dream.
"Only you, the Yang family, have seen this thing. This is the first time we have seen it in our lives!" Madam Zheng nudged Yang Chunhua and said with a smile.
"You can wear clothes woven by Baidiezi in the future!" Yang Chunhua replied.
She knew that what Su Ying said was correct. The white fibers inside the white folds were indeed very long. She was young at the time and was only interested in having fun. She never thought about its wonderful uses.
Mrs. Gao and Old Man Yang looked at each other and smiled. They had tried the uses of Baidiezi in the past.
I tore up the stuffing and put it into the pillow, but I don't know how to develop it. Although the pillow is soft, it feels clumpy and not comfortable to use.
According to Ah Ying, this white folded cloth is not suitable for filling pillows.
The white fibers should be spread out and stretched into a warp and weft network with thread, and the fluffy cotton should be spread on top and flattened and pressed evenly to make a quilt, a sacred object to keep out the cold.
After the white glutinous rice is harvested, the Su family will leave here, and their daughter will return to Chang'an with them.
I feel sad and melancholy.
The three little grandsons settled down in Chang'an and found an old friend of the Gao family. They were surprised to find that he was a prominent relative.
At that time, the Qinghe Wang family was gradually declining and had little presence in the court.
The letter I left for my grandson was not hopeful, as I didn't know if there was anyone from the Gao family still in the court.
Gao tossed and turned for many nights, wanting to return to Chang'an so badly, she just hoped to see Chang'an one more time before closing her eyes.
"Okay, tie up the fence to prevent people from accidentally breaking in and picking the fruits!" Old Man Yang ordered.
Everyone worked together to drive the prepared wooden stakes into the soil, half a person's height, to isolate the more than one acre of land.
In their spare time, Old Lady Su and Mrs. Gao would come here to look around. As the white folds of grass grew bigger, the day for them to return home was getting closer.
"Look, this white bun has grown a lot taller!" said Mrs. Su excitedly.
"Yeah!" Gao smiled.
"Oh, look, has that white floribunda plant started to bud?" Old Mrs. Su had sharp eyes and saw that a white floribunda plant had flower buds.
"Of course!" Gao took a look.
"Haha, mother-in-law, once the flowers bloom, will they produce white fruits? Will we be able to harvest them in a few days?" Old Mrs. Su said excitedly.
"It's still early. The seeds will form after the flowers bloom, and the white radish will only grow at that time. Then we have to wait for a few days before we can pick them." Gao smiled faintly.
"Ah? How long do we have to wait?" Old Mrs. Su said disappointedly.
"It will probably take another two months." Gao replied.
"Alas!" sighed Old Mrs. Su. "The closer the day gets, the harder it gets!"
I want to go back to Chang'an so much, I'm afraid I will die in a foreign land!
"Be patient, it will be over soon!" Gao comforted, with a look of loss and sadness in her eyes.
Mrs. Su will be able to return home soon, but what about me? Can I wait until Hu Zi and the others become successful? Can I live another ten years?
"Old sister, when will you return to Chang'an?" Old Mrs. Su looked at Gao.
"It's almost time! Once Hu Zi and the others have made it, we'll go back!" said Gao.
"How old is Hu Zi? We have to wait another ten years!" Old Mrs. Su felt desperate just thinking about it.
"How many people can live to be seventy? I'm afraid I'll collapse on the road. Old sister, why don't you come with us!"
Gao's eyes flashed with light, then dimmed. "No, let's wait until Huzi and the others have made it."
"Oh, sister, can you wait until that time?" Old Mrs. Su advised.
"Anyway, I can't make it to that time, so let's go together, sister, so I can have a companion on the road.
When you return to Chang'an, if you don't mind, you can live in my house. If you find it too noisy, you can rent a house nearby.
We can visit each other every day, and you can see your three grandchildren every ten days. How wonderful! "
"This..." Gao was moved.
"Old sister, don't hesitate! It's settled!" Old Mrs. Su patted Gao's hand.
"Let me think about it!" Gao was both happy and worried.
He walked home in a hurry and sat there in a daze.
When Old Man Yang returned home, he saw that his wife's eyes were staring blankly, and he knew that she was thinking about Chang'an again.
"Oh!" Old man Yang brought a stool and sat next to him.
Who wouldn't want to go back to Chang'an? But Chang'an is no longer my home, so what's the point of going back? My hometown is a foreign land!
Even if I go back to my hometown in Hongnong, I'm afraid few people will recognize me.
But that damn obsession of returning to one's roots makes me miss Chang'an again and again, thinking of the home I can never return to.
It would be fine if everyone was living here happily, but the Su family had to go back, and Old Lady Su, who was of the same age as me, was also going back.
As an old person who is also buried up to her neck in the earth, who wouldn’t envy Old Mrs. Su for returning to her roots?
Before he knew it, Old Man Yang's eyes started to turn red.
"Shoudao, why don't we go back?" Gao reached out and held her husband's hand.
After being married for decades, they are already so familiar with each other that they can't be more familiar with each other. If she misses home, wouldn't her husband miss it too?
"Why go back to Chang'an? Hu Zi and the others are fostered in the mansion of the Duke of Yixing. Where can we stay?" Old man Yang wiped his tears.
"My mother-in-law invites us to go with her. We can stay at the Su Mansion temporarily or rent a house for ourselves." Gao looked at her husband eagerly.
"Shoudao, how many years do we have left to live? Why think so much? There are many people in the Su family, so why not go together and take care of each other!
Even if I close my eyes when I reach Chang'an, I will be willing to do so!"
Old man Yang was silent, feeling mixed emotions.
I've been wanting to go back for twenty years! But when the day finally came, I suddenly felt timid for no apparent reason. I couldn't explain why, but I was just afraid of seeing old friends.
"Keep to the right path!" Gao said a thousand words.
"Forget it, forget it! Let's go back, let's go back!" Old man Yang slapped his thigh.
My wife has been with me through twenty years of hardship, and her only wish is to return home. Now that I can still move, let’s go back!
Don't let this life have any regrets. The ones I will let down are my wife and children.
"Oh! That's good! That's good!" Gao cried and laughed.
The two daughters-in-law came to call their parents-in-law for dinner, but they saw them talking about going back to Chang'an, so they did not disturb them and left quietly.
