Chapter 108 Your mother doesn't want you anymore
The Chinese New Year is coming soon. On the 29th day of the lunar year, Lu Chenyang called everyone together.
"Thank you for your hard work this year, but even during the Lunar New Year, we can't let our guard down. Patrols have been arranged in the city, so don't be careless. If it snows, be sure to check thoroughly..."
In fact, these matters had already been ordered. Lu Chenyang paid special attention to people's livelihood. He cared about the people, no matter how big or small, and spared no effort. With such importance attached to him, how could the people under him dare to disrespect him?
But everyone still listened patiently to Lu Chenyang's instructions again.
After Lu Chenyang finished speaking, he saw the adult's smiling eyes and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, I won't say much more. I wish everyone a safe, healthy, smooth and perfect new year."
"Happy New Year, sir." Everyone said in unison. Lu Chenyang did not plan to return to Yanquan County this year and wanted to stay in the capital.
It doesn't matter to her, as long as she can be with Lu Chenyang, she thinks anywhere is fine.
So the two of them, along with Tan Feng, Lu Ning and others, celebrated the New Year together. Last year it was quite lively, but this year with fewer people it seemed deserted.
During the New Year’s Eve dinner, four people ate from the hot pot.
The soup base made with mushrooms is incredibly fresh. After taking a bite of the hot mutton, I feel completely happy.
The mutton was a New Year gift from Chen Songyuan. Lu Chenyang lived a hard life, and seeing this made his subordinates feel bad. So, they took the opportunity of giving New Year gifts to send Lu Chenyang a lot of food.
The other party had a legitimate reason, so Lu Chenyang didn't want to be too unkind, so he ate the delicious mutton.
Deng Mingbo visited him once before the New Year. As the magistrate of the only wealthy county in Lingnan, Deng Mingbo was very sad about Lu Chenyang's life.
Now Lu Chenyang is a governor of Lingnan in name only. He is the one who keeps his word, but in the end he can't even get a bite of meat. It is really sad to hear about it and makes people cry.
Lu Chenyang was eating his meal, feeling extremely satisfied, and then there was a knock on the door.
Lu Chenyang didn't move. Zhao Xi went to see Tan Feng. Tan Feng couldn't afford to offend this little ancestor, so he went to see Lu Ning because he was afraid of the strong and bullied the weak.
Lu Ning resigned himself to his fate and went to open the door.
When the door opened, Yan Xing appeared at the door with Tingshu and Changjing.
The three of them were covered in dust and felt cold.
Three people walked in. Lu Chenyang was stunned when he saw them: "Why are you here?"
Yan Xing raised the wine in his hand, it was peach blossom wine.
Lu Chenyang doesn’t have much of a favorite thing, but he has a special liking for the peach blossom wine of the Dongyi people.
This year, the county school in Yanquan County is recruiting students from outside, and some children from the Dongyi ethnic group have already started attending the school.
Lu Chenyang specially wrote a letter to Xu Zhenghui and built a school dormitory for them to go to school more conveniently.
Apart from that, Lu Chenyang didn't do anything special, nor did he say hello or give any special regards.
Xu Zhenghui was very worried. After all, the Dongyi people and the Han people were sworn enemies, and the gap could not be resolved in a short time.
But unexpectedly, they get along quite well... well, harmoniously? Or rather, peacefully.
It wasn't a harmonious society, but at least they were able to live in peace.
Although the Dongyi children had their own circle and rarely interacted with Han children, at least neither side provoked or caused trouble.
Xu Zhenghui was secretly amazed. No wonder Lu Chenyang was not too worried. His master was indeed a man of foresight!
But he didn't expect that the two sides could get along so harmoniously. Li Dajun saw it clearly.
"The opportunity to go to school is so rare. If it weren't for Lord Lu, how could I have gone to school? Of course I cherish this opportunity. What's more, we have already negotiated, and Lord Lu has done so much to achieve this. No one dares to disrupt this balance. I guess their families warned them when they came."
Xu Zhenghui suddenly realized and felt that what he said made sense.
The Dongyi people told their children, "We are not afraid of trouble, but we should not cause trouble either, because we are going there to study."
The Han people also told their children that these were the conditions for peace talks agreed upon by Lord Lu. Even if they didn't like them, they could just ignore them and not make things difficult for Lord Lu.
So the two sides lived in peace. After all, the teachers in the county school treated everyone equally and fairly, and that was enough.
This is the first reason why the Dongyi people are grateful to Lu Chenyang.
The second reason is to attract good luck.
Zhao Xi has always been by Lu Chenyang's side, but he has not missed any opportunity to do what he should do.
She developed many prescriptions for alleviating the effects of miasma on the Dongyi people, and first tried them on the elderly Dongyi people for treatment, with very good results.
This gave the Dongyi people hope, and they slowly adjusted their health so that at least the next generation of children could live longer, as this was a matter that concerned their future generations.
Therefore, the Dongyi people are very grateful to Lu Chenyang. The hatred of the past is important, but the hope for the future is more important.
Although the Dongyi people couldn't understand why Lu Chenyang didn't like the insects when they were so delicious, fortunately he liked their peach blossom wine, so he specially packed a lot of it as a New Year gift this time.
Yan Xing said, "It's almost New Year's Day. I was thinking of you and came to bring you some wine."
Lu Chenyang, whose mouth was full of grease from eating just now, said calmly: "I miss you too. When you are not around, I don't even enjoy eating meat anymore, really."
Yan Xing curled the corners of his lips: "That's why I came."
Tan Feng sighed lightly. His girl was still as good at sweet talk as ever. She could only say nice things with her mouth.
Since you are here, let’s sit down and have a meal together.
Chang Jing came close to Zhao Xi and said, "Master!" His eyes sparkled, "I've been thinking about you."
Zhao Xi asked in confusion, "What should I worry about? Without a fool like you around, I feel much less angry."
Changjing was devastated, he always thought he was smart.
"Why are you here? It's New Year's Day, and you left your mother alone at home?" Zhao Xi asked.
Chang Jing said in a muffled voice, "It was my mother who abandoned me. This year during the New Year, she said she wanted to be with the children in Youwuyuan."
Chang Jingniang's health has improved a lot under Zhao Xi's care. Then Lu Chenyang used the back door to let her work in Youwuyuan and receive silver every month.
She felt very sorry for the children in Youwuyuan. She originally wanted to take Changjing with her, but Changjing didn't like being with a group of little kids, so she came with Yan Xingyi to see Lu Chenyang.
"Oh, your mother doesn't want you anymore." Zhao Xi said knowingly.
One sentence almost made the strong little man cry.
Zhaoxi is definitely an evil ghost!
