Chapter 97 Call You Dad
Water is coming out of the well.
There is still enough water for the people in the whole city to drink.
Rong Kun was anxious to have someone repair the well wall, find the best craftsmen, and grind the smoothest stones.
The speech is incoherent and repetitive.
This is another Moon Spring.
It is the lifeline of Liangzhou.
Sang Ning knew that from today on, the Huo family had established a firm foothold in Liangzhou.
Huo Jingya had already run away.
She wants to go home and tell the good news.
Sang Ning walked into the woods, found a piece of wood to sit on, and looked through the gaps between the trees at the busy but happy smiling faces.
She truly felt their happiness.
The ecstasy of escaping from despair and thinking that the straw that broke the camel's back suddenly turned into a diamond chain.
Their request is very simple, just to stay alive.
For the first time since coming here, Sanning felt relaxed.
She just lay down, squinted her eyes, crossed her legs, and enjoyed the rare peace.
At some point, she felt someone coming beside her.
When I opened my eyes, it was Bai Yi.
He was wet, but his emotions had stabilized, with only a normal look of joy on his face.
"Madam Sang, you've worked hard for the water source. You probably haven't slept well these past two days, right? I misunderstood you before."
Sang Ning didn't sleep well, but it wasn't because of the water.
It’s because of the kang.
But it’s better if Bai Yi misunderstood.
She didn't sleep well because she was worried about finding water!
"You have found a water source for Liangzhou and performed a great service. I will report this to the court."
Alarm bells immediately rang in Sang Ning's mind.
The Huo family had been framed, and she had always thought that the person at the top was the one who was getting rid of them.
But Huo Changan once talked about this with her.
The current emperor and Huo Zhennan have had a comradeship since they were young. In the following decades, the emperor and his subject lived in harmony and trusted each other.
For some unknown reason, the emperor suddenly took action against the Marquis' Mansion.
Before the incident, the only unusual thing was that the emperor had been ill for more than a month, during which time the crown prince was acting as regent.
But it was the emperor who issued the final decree.
The Huo family is loyal and has assisted the emperor for more than 20 years. The emperor has watched the children of the Huo family grow up.
In Huo Changan's eyes, he was a kind elder, and sometimes he was even better to him than to the other princes.
Therefore, he was more inclined to believe that the treacherous officials had deceived the emperor or controlled him.
Sonning thought he was too naive.
There is no such thing as true love for an emperor.
There is always a scale in their hearts. When the scale tilts, the side that is weighed down is guilty.
Will be discarded without hesitation.
She sat up and asked, "Can we not report it?"
She didn't care whether it was the emperor's good deeds or those parasites who were harming the country. Anyway, the Huo family could not attract the attention of the people in the capital.
Her bastard father and the sinister second prince are both time bombs.
Bai Yi was not stupid, he thought about it and nodded.
Judging from Sang Ning's expression, the Huo family's affairs are very complicated.
Reporting your achievements might not only bring you trouble...
If he doesn't want to report it, then don't report it. Liangzhou is an important border area, and the people entering and leaving are strictly checked. If he doesn't report it, the capital will definitely not get any news.
"Thank you, sir."
Sang Ning was glad that the governor of Liangzhou was a good official, so they could live a more relaxed life here.
"Sir, if we finish digging the well, could you please ask the officer to bring back some of these logs for us? You know, my family is full of old, weak, and sick people..."
here we go again.
She really took advantage of the officials whenever she got the chance.
Sonning was talking about the trees that were cut down during the fire.
The trees were too heavy, and Huo Jingya and Li Yuzhi were exhausted after dragging three trees back.
If there were officials to help, there would be no need to delay any further.
Bai Yi was in a good mood and nodded again.
Sang Ning expressed his gratitude and returned home contentedly.
"Extraordinary bearing, wise and powerful?"
Bai Yi repeated what Sang Ning had just said and couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
Last time he said he was forty!
Believe her mouth!
The fourth wife of the Huo family is really a good material for being a treacherous minister.
A gust of wind blew and Bai Yi shivered.
The beginning of autumn is approaching. This year's harvest is worse than last year, and the relief grain from the court is no longer enough.
How can we ensure that people do not starve to death?
Bai Yi returned to the county magistrate's office.
Outside the mansion gate, there was a staggering figure kneeling.
"How many days has he been kneeling?"
"Your Excellency, today is the fourth day. I can't hold on any longer."
"Give him a warning and let him go!"
The Huo family has made great contributions, so let’s spare them for now.
Otherwise, a disaster would have occurred and they would have been sentenced to life imprisonment!
The gatekeeper went over to the already exhausted Huo Baohong and said, "My Lord, please be merciful and let you off this time. If you dare mess around again, I will not let you off easily! Wait here!"
"Thank you very much, sir... Thank you very much, sir... Thank you very much..."
Soon, the brothers Huo Jianglin and Huo Jiangchu came out, supporting each other.
However, the two of them were beaten with a stick and were in poor health, especially Huo Jianglin, who looked not in good spirits.
"Lin'er, what's wrong with you?"
"Dad, my eldest brother seems frightened. Let's go home first."
…
Sang Ning was surrounded before he even got home.
People all over Liangzhou were paying attention to the news about the water source, not to mention these fellow villagers.
The unfamiliar faces smiled at her enthusiastically.
He was holding food in his hands.
Sang Ning refused to accept it, and then a tall man suddenly knelt down and shouted, "Mom—"
Sanning: "!!!!!!"
What a joke on ethics! He looks almost forty!
Well, maybe only twenty-six.
"Mom! I was wrong last time. I kowtow to you and apologize. Please don't stop us from getting water!"
When he said that, Sanning remembered.
It turned out to be him.
He is tall and strong, and he is old, so he can really call out "Mom".
He could shout it out, but Sang Ning didn't dare to respond.
Who would want such an ugly son!
As a result, as soon as he shouted, several others followed suit, "I admit defeat and I'll yell, 'Mom!' I just hope you won't hold a grudge against me and forgive us!"
"Forgive us, mother!"
"mother--"
There was a lot of noise and one person was shouting that it was shameful, but the rest of the people didn't think it was shameful anymore. They were shouting louder and louder, as if they were competing with each other.
All the members of the Huo family ran out, holding sticks in their hands, protecting Sang Ning in the middle.
Huo Changan turned his wheelchair and waved his wooden spear, forcing the tall man who was blocking his way out of the way. His strong eyebrows were like knives and spears, and he shouted fiercely: "Get out!"
One end of this wooden spear is very sharp, and the villagers know its power. It can really kill people!
The man's face tightened, and he opened his mouth and shouted, "Dad——"
Huo Changan's body shuddered noticeably.
screw you!
So disgusting!
He would rather die without descendants than have a son like this!
"Dad, I call you Dad. Please ask the county magistrate to let me fetch water. I have three children..."
Sang Ning pushed the wheelchair, and everyone pushed away the crowd and finally ran back home.
But those people are still outside.
When they were stealing water, they didn't think of giving them a chance to survive. If the food hadn't been stored so tightly, it would have been stolen.
Now you're calling your parents and acting pitiful, thinking she'll soften her heart?
At least learn a lesson for a few days!
Ignoring the calls outside, they hid in the house to cook.
When it gradually darkened, there was no more noise outside.
Huo Jingya peeked out through the crack in the door and found that there was indeed no one there.
But soon, a person stumbled towards this side on the road covered with dusk.
"Help—Aunt, sister-in-law, help—"
