Chapter 119 Catch
Jiang Mixia, "..."
She could understand those who wanted safety and wealth, but what was this about praying for a child?
Seeing Jiang Mixia pick up the talisman for praying for a child and looking at it for a long time, Song Jingyun chuckled, "This is what my mother asked us to pray for. She told us to hang it above the bed."
"By the way, my lady, I saw quite a few people there who were begging for children, some of them even cried like crazy. Does everyone here have to give birth to a child?"
"Yes." Jiang Mixia nodded. "There is a saying here that there are three kinds of unfilial behavior, and the worst is to have no offspring. This world emphasizes blood inheritance and having many offspring, so having children is very important."
Take today's incident for example, the Jiangjia Village has a large population and strong forces, and they drove out those people like Chai Fa who had ulterior motives. This is the power of a big family.
If there are not many descendants in a family, when something happens, there will not be many helpers and it is easy to be bullied by bad people.
In ancient times, people valued having many children and were blessed. In such a living environment, there is indeed a reason for this.
"So..." Song Jingyun thought for a while, "Do we have to have children in the future?"
"Ahem..." Jiang Mixia tried hard not to spit out the tea she had just drunk and put the cup back on the coffee table. "Theoretically, yes."
"Then let's have children." Song Jingyun said, "Well, it would be best if we could have several, so that when they play together, it will be festive and lively."
Just like when I used to see Jiang Maihua, Zhu Guangtai and Jiang Chunyu playing together, I felt so comfortable and happy.
The more Song Jingyun thought about it, the happier he became. He even paced around the room several times, "By the way, my wife, how do we give birth to a child?"
"I've seen those who have given birth in the village have to wait for their bellies to grow bigger before giving birth. When will your belly grow bigger, ma'am?"
As Song Jingyun spoke, he touched his bloated belly and said, "Do I need to eat a lot? Then, my lady, do you want to eat more every day?"
Jiang Mixia, "..."
The consequences of lack of education! The next day, Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun took Xun Yuanbo to the porcelain kiln.
Because Xun Yuanbo wanted to make a few small porcelain bottles in the porcelain kiln to store his pills.
In theory, these small porcelain bottles can be found everywhere, and there are a lot of them ready-made outside. Just the various porcelain bottles produced by the official kilns rewarded by the emperor are enough for him to use up.
But Xun Yuanbai only wanted to burn a few from the porcelain kiln in Jiangjia Village.
One reason is that the things fired in this kind of folk kiln should be ordinary in appearance and not easy to attract attention.
The second is this porcelain kiln, which is the porcelain kiln in Jiangjia Village. It is the porcelain kiln that Xiao Langjun often visits. It is the porcelain kiln built by Xiao Langjun’s family in partnership with others.
This is a blessed porcelain kiln, so the things fired in this kiln are the most suitable!
Seeing that this great Taoist priest did not mind the crude products fired in his own porcelain kiln, Zhu Yongwu became very interested. He asked Xun Yuanbo what he wanted. He then made a prototype according to his description and showed it to Xun Yuanbo.
"I'm afraid it's going to rain today." Song Jingyun was helping to mix the clay and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
It is autumn now and the weather is supposed to be getting cooler, but today it is so stuffy that people are sweating profusely.
"It was cloudy for half a day yesterday, and it's cloudy early this morning. I think it's going to rain." Jiang Mixia looked at the thick clouds in the sky and put down the bucket in her hand. "I'll go home and get two umbrellas first."
If it snows heavily later, I won’t be able to go home.
Jiang Mixia had barely finished speaking when, before she had taken two steps, she saw a group of people dressed as yamen runners entering the outer courtyard of the porcelain kiln.
"What do you want, sir?" Jiang Mixia asked.
The leader looked Jiang Mixia up and down, raised his hand, and said, "Catch her!"
The yamen runner beside him took the shackles and walked towards Jiang Mixia.
"Why are you arresting my wife?" Song Jingyun rushed over to stop them.
The villagers from Jiangjia Village who came to inquire also stopped him, "That's right, why do the yamen runners arrest people at will?"
Jiang Mixia also narrowed her eyes. "The country has its own laws. This government office must act in accordance with the law when arresting people. I don't know what I have done wrong. Why do you want to arrest me?"
"What crime have you committed? Don't you know it?" Chai Fa squeezed from behind the yamen runner to the front and shouted at Jiang Mixia, "Bitch, you shameless little whore!"
"If you had signed the document yesterday, everything would have been fine. But you were so greedy and called on the villagers to beat us up. Do you think you are so great? Today I will let you know what it means to seek your own death!"
“And you!” Chai Fa glanced at the increasing number of Jiangjia Village villagers rushing over, especially when he saw Jiang Zhengxin, he immediately put his hands on his hips and said, “You are blind!”
"I am from the Chai family, and my master is the county magistrate's brother-in-law! You peasants, blind people, dare to hit me, I will teach you a lesson today!"
"Seal up this porcelain kiln for me, and arrest this little whore! Also, the tall man here, the head of Jiangjia Village, and all the able-bodied men in Jiangjia Village..."
"Catch them all, take them to the government office, lock them up, and give them a good beating!"
As soon as Chai Fa finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
The people in Jiangjia Village looked at each other in bewilderment.
Is this person from the county magistrate’s brother-in-law’s family?
If they beat these people yesterday, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the county magistrate? Now Chai Fa brought people from the government office to seal the porcelain kiln and arrest people. Is he going to take revenge on Jiangjia Village? Jiang Zhengxin's expression became solemn.
Seeing the fear on the faces of the people in Jiangjia Village, even Jiang Zhengxin's face looked a little ugly, Chai Fa became more and more proud, "You bastard, you don't recognize the great man!"
Then he spat on the ground and shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and arrest them!"
"Okay!" The leading yamen runner received the order and was about to tie up Jiang Mixia with chains.
"Let's see who dares!" Xun Yuanbai stood in front, looked at the yamen runners, and shouted with a glare, "I am a great heavenly master. Let's see which yamen dares to arrest people in front of me!"
Heavenly Master?
Chai Fa and the yamen runners were stunned.
But when he looked up and down at Xun Yuanbo's clothes, he saw that they were not noble at all, and were no different from those of ordinary farmers, and he burst into laughter.
"Where did this sorcerer come from? You are an old man, pretending to be a god. Who do you want to scare?" Chai laughed so hard that he fell backwards. "If you are the Heavenly Master, I am the State Master!"
"You..." Xun Yuanbo was immediately very angry.
"Brother Fa, stop wasting time talking to these peasants. Let's arrest the man and report back!" suggested a slightly shorter yamen runner.
"Catch him!"
