Kong Wenmin knew that Zhong Mingwei was telling the truth, but he was still a little embarrassed for a moment. He thought about the last sentence of the secret letter from the King of Pingxi, "I regard Mingwei as my son." He looked at Zhong Mingwei again, hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Sir, it is enough for you to know that the King of Pingxi is protecting you wholeheartedly."
Zhong Mingwei was stunned. He really didn't understand what Kong Wenmin meant. But Kong Wenmin could tell him so much today. Obviously, it was an exception. He naturally couldn't ask any more questions, so he watched Kong Wenmin turn around and go to the field. He didn't call Kong Wenmin in the end, but he didn't want to pick beans, so he just sat there in a daze.
He really had no impression of the King of Pingxi. When he was born, the King of Pingxi had gone to the northwest. When the King of Pingxi came back, he was in Ningguta again. During the period of more than 30 years, he really had never seen the King of Pingxi. Apart from the handwriting of the King of Pingxi on the memorial, he really didn't know more about the King of Pingxi. But now, he has fallen to such a state. He has become a place of bad luck that no one wants to get involved with, but the King of Pingxi, whom he has never met, is trying his best to protect himself, especially. He was the one who caused the major case of 20 years ago. Shouldn't the King of Pingxi hate him? But why is he protecting himself now?
Moreover, what is the relationship between the King of Pingxi and the Imperial Guards? Why did Kong Wenmin know the contents of the secret letter from the King of Pingxi? And what is the relationship between Fang Zuotang and the King of Pingxi? The King of Pingxi has been secretly supporting the criminals and their families in the 20-year case for so many years. Fang Zuotang must be completely unaware of it, but why didn't he report it to the court, but chose to turn a blind eye? Or was he always covering for the King of Pingxi?
When he was in the capital before, Zhong Mingwei had never set his sights on the land of Ningguta, nor had he ever studied the King of Pingxi. Today, he has become so destitute, but the King of Pingxi and Fang Zuotang, two people he has never met, have been silently protecting him. Zhong Mingwei couldn't figure out why they were like this and what their intentions were, so he just sat there in a daze until Mei Ya came over.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Mei Ya had been looking at Zhong Mingwei for quite a while. Seeing him sitting there blankly, she thought he was tired, so she hurried over and whispered in Zhong Mingwei's ear, "Is the stool too hard and is it hitting your butt again?"
Zhong Mingwei's legs were still recovering, so he naturally couldn't work in the fields. However, he didn't want to stay at home alone, so he brought a stool and sat on the field picking beans.
"It's okay. How can you get tired so easily?" Zhong Mingwei said with a smile. He reached out and plucked a leaf from Mei Ya's hair and threw it on the ground, and asked, "Are you tired? Do you want to take a break?"
"Not tired, how much land is this? With Pang Yi and the others helping me, I barely have a chance to start," Mei Ya laughed, wiping Zhong Mingwei's sweat with a handkerchief, and whispered, "Are you too hot? I'll cut some watermelon for you when we get back later."
When going out in the morning, Mei Ya put a watermelon in a bucket and hung it in the well water to cool it down.
"Okay, let's eat watermelon when we get back," Zhong Mingwei said with a smile. He glanced at the three men who were still sweating in the field, and then whispered to Mei Ya, "No, we have to wait until night to eat it. If those wolf cubs see us, they will rush to eat it and we won't be able to enjoy it."
Mei Ya's mouth twitched: "..."
Where are the people who spent money like water and were from a royal family?
Uncle Zhong, your image has collapsed to this extent, don’t you realize it at all?
…
Having said that, when they got home, they still gathered together to eat watermelon, and Mei Ya called Gu Changlin as well.
"Mingwei, today is your first time working in the fields. How do you feel about that?" Gu Changlin took a piece of watermelon from Mei Ya and looked at Zhong Mingwei with interest.
"This is not the first time Mingwei has worked in the fields. He has worked with me to weed the fields before," Mei Ya said before Zhong Mingwei could speak. She took a bite of the watermelon and added, "Several times. Mingwei is doing a great job in farm work now."
"It shows that our girl is quite capable," Gu Changlin said with a smile, and looked at Zhong Mingwei again, "Next year, when your leg is better, you won't have to go to Chenjiatun to borrow a cow."
