Life is just so comfortable, Xichun also feels that living a woman like Sister Tong should be a woman without any worries. She has no mother-in-law to serve, no tricky sister-in-law and difficult sister-in-law to deal with it. When she got married, she became a top scorer in the exam. After entering the house for only a few years, she has added two kids in a row, and there is no pressure to have children. What's more, the couple is harmonious, let alone the concubine, there is not even an annoying girl. To be honest, if you are not afraid of making taboos, you are really the queen in the palace, and I'm afraid she doesn't have the comfort and freedom of her.

But this woman who seems to be free from worries has become more and more anxious recently. Every day when she gets up, she goes to the garden first, squats down and stretches out her hand to touch the soil under the roots of the flower. The servants at home said before that they need to water the ground, but she only leaves this small piece without being touched: they all leak here first

I don’t know, there are some treasures buried under the roots of this flower.

As a result, it has been more than half a month. When she came over that morning, she suddenly heard Sister Tong say: It’s dry!

Had a drought?

Is it not dry without watering?

Lin Yutong shook her head: It’s not that it’s a drought! You can count on how many days it has been, and there has been no rain. This year, I’m afraid that summer grain will be inadequate in the capital.

It was as Lin Yutong said. When Brother Yun came back, he also told Lin Yutong what he saw outside: When I talked to my uncle and grandfather, he blinked at Lin Yutong. Lin Yutong understood that the child was talking about the old saint, and she didn't point it out. He just asked Xichun to misunderstand that it was Jia Shu. So the boy continued: We were wandering around the capital, and many of the seedlings were dead. They just replanted the seedlings. They rely on water to water. It doesn't seem like a long-term solution. But the Huangzhuang is not bad. There is a pressure well that my father made, which can still be used now. Although the water output is not as large as before, it can be used at least. I heard that some places have the ability and conditions to do it and do not guard against it.

This pressure well is actually a little different from the pressure well in a complete sense. But even so, its cost is not something that small households can afford.

So, when a drought comes, how to deal with it? It is still a big question.

Xichun used to think that this was a very far away from her, and she couldn't even think of it. What did it have to do with her? Is it drought? In the past, I would have been annoyed by the sudden arrival of a rain. It was because of this rain that caused the paint on the painting she had just made to get damp. But she didn't know at that time that the rain that she was angry with was a rain that many people were looking forward to.

Seeing that she was always thinking in contemplative these days, Brother Yun asked her: What is the difficulty for my aunt?

Looking at Brother Yun, who was like a little adult, Xichun didn't care whether he could understand or not, so he said his previous thoughts: I'm afraid that when I see snow in the future, I will never think about watching the snow around the fire. I recited the poem right now. Now, I feel ashamed of the heavy snow that seems very poetic to them. I don't know how many people can't resist the severe cold.

Brother Yun could understand this. After hearing this, he sighed, looking very mature: my aunt's words were like a wake-up call, and my nephew must remember that he would not be a good boy, and he bowed to Xichun with a long bow, and his small face was serious. After the ceremony, he walked in a small step again. Look, he looked like he was heading towards the book pavilion in the garden.

Xichun was a little stunned, and then secretly praised in her heart. She turned around and said to the girl: It seems that I am really safe in the rest of my life. If my nephews in my family have made progress, there is no need to have more. Only one and a half will be lost.

Then after the Fourth Master came back, he saw a serious eldest son standing at the door to greet his father, and was meticulous in court: he had met his father. His father was exhausted all the way, but his mother was very worried.

The Fourth Master was stunned, and looked at it like a Western scenery along the way, and then replied: I am not tired of my father, so I should not worry about it.

The servants at home couldn't help laughing, but they looked at each other seriously. It was not until the inner courtyard that when they saw Tongtong, the Fourth Master turned his eyes and asked: Have you cleaned up your children? Why are you doing this?

Lin Yutong shrugged and said: I don’t know! Who knows what was stimulating?!

Then while eating, the child took out Gongjian's set and made a very decent one. But he saw that the fourth master had a toothache.

It is easy to deal with such naughty children. After dinner, the Fourth Master also looked serious: Can my son serve his father to wash?

The naughty child's mouth twitched, but he still held his chest straight and responded with ease: He should serve him!

Then he entered the bathroom, and the Fourth Master picked up and took off his pants and pressed them to the bathtub. When he came out, he was gone.

However, there are still good places. For example, when this child asks people to inquire about the prices outside, he knows very keenly what changes the most when encountering natural disasters. First, the prices of grain, then the prices of fruits and vegetables. Even the water from the sweet water well sold in the city has increased accordingly.

The Fourth Master asked him: What are you doing to collect these?

The child said: Save has saved people.

When the Fourth Master asked about the details, he said: When the food in the southern village is harvested in summer, it will be transported secretly in batches and placed on the village outside the city for emergencies. If there is a wasteland, the family will not be hungry.

The Fourth Master nodded, this is what he called saving.

Neither Lin Yutong would teach his children the so-called "being ahead of others and then oneself". He also understood the meaning of the child. He had to save himself first, and he could save himself. If he had spare energy, he would then save others. This is called doing what he could.

Is this wrong?

That's right!

Especially in this world, if you can't save yourself and your family, but you open your mouth and shut up, in the Fourth Master's opinion, it is the most undesirable.

When Emperor Zhenglong entered the palace, the fourth master of Zhenglong said something that he could not help but drought in the capital. The fourth master said these to Emperor Zhenglong as a joke. This emperor sighed a lot: If everyone can save themselves, the world will be peaceful. If everyone wants to save themselves and think about saving others, then I will be invincible in the world.

The Fourth Master took the opportunity to say: Everyone can save themselves, which is a luxury. The fingers are of length and size, and the abilities of people vary. Those who can save themselves do not need to favor other favors, and they can also survive. On the contrary, those who cannot save themselves are the people who are waiting for the court to rescue them.

When Lin Yutong saw the queen, the queen couldn't help but ask about these things. The queen's meaning is whether the harem and the wife, reduce expenses and provide relief to the victims. How much effect does this method have? Lin Yutong is actually this way. Although it may not be very effective, it is a way to express his attitude. Lin Yutong of course said it well and said a lot of compliments: When my family was at home, the amount of water contained in the bucket was the measure of whether the country was prosperous or not. But the country is different from the bucket. Each wooden board of the bucket is intact and neat, but the wooden board of the bucket is like a finger, which is uneven. At this time, whether the water in the bucket is too long or too small, it is not about how long the long board is, but about how short the short board is. Only when the shortcomings are filled will the water be filled more and more.

In other words, it is to care for the disadvantaged groups.

The queen also said this to Emperor Zhenglong in a casual manner: Listen to this, maybe it is because I am ignorant and fresh, I have never heard of it. When my wife came to the palace, she always said compassionate words of pity for the elderly and poor, and said that she worshiped the Bodhisattva where she was and prayed for so much incense and prayed for blessings. This is something I have never heard of.

Emperor Zhenglong personally picked up food for the queen: It is also the queen who worries me. You don’t have to be so careful that the harem does not involve the affairs of the previous dynasty. You have always done a good job. You talked to your subordinates’ families and also took the initiative to investigate for me that the person who can say this to his wife must be a very compassionate person. Such a person is not to worry about. After all, the father is better at employed than me.

The queen smiled humbly: You are being modest.

Emperor Zhenglong waved his hand and looked at his son who was eating silently: I know your thoughts. Hong'er is very good, I don't hide it from you. I have that thought, but now it may not be a good time. A trace of gloom flashed in his eyes. Before the external troubles were eliminated, the confidant troubles started to speak again, and then put away the two feelings and his tone became more intimate: How disrespectful Concubine Zhou has been to you in recent days?

Nothing! The queen shook her head: It is inevitable that people who are pregnant will be restless and restless.

Emperor Zhenglong nodded and gently patted the queen's hand: It is not easy for you and my husband to get to the present. But now, you are wronged. If you think about it carefully, you are not very interested. But since the burden in the world is borne by me, you must take you and take it with me. The external troubles have not been eliminated, and internal troubles cannot be aroused again. You still have to bear it with Concubine Zhou.

The smile on the queen's face was a bit bitter: I am fine, but Hong'er was young. I am not suspicious of Concubine Zhou, but I am afraid that someone would lend them their hands. Therefore, I want to ask Your Majesty for a kindness.

Emperor Zhenglong sighed: I know if you don’t say it. If you relax, I will arrange it.

So, on that day, the Fourth Master brought a child back. The couple and Brother Yun were not unfamiliar with this child. That was the prince born in the legitimate state, and the one who was Ming Hong was.

The Fourth Master just said: This is the newly acquired legitimate son, just called Hong Ge'er.

It’s nothing if the top scholar’s ​​wife takes the prince as her disciple.

Brother Hong'er's eyes were red. This child was going to go to school for ten days and went back to the palace for one day. If such a older child was not able to do anything, the queen would not have given it.

Seeing that he only brought a eunuch out to serve him, Lin Yutong temporarily arranged for him to live with Brother Yun. In fact, Brother Yun is still living in the cabinet of the two bedrooms, and now he is not just an extra child.

When the child fell asleep, Lin Yutong asked the Fourth Master: Is it the Zhou family?

Since Yuanchun has vaguely turned against Concubine Zhou, Lin Yutong has used this premonition.

The Zhou family has been following since Emperor Zhenglong fought and conquered the residence, which is the most solid part of the strength. Of course, their loyalty to Emperor Zhenglong will not be faked, but now they are also unlucky to fight for power and profit. For example, there is a concubine in the palace, and the concubine is young and beautiful, and her daughter is followed by a daughter. The clan also sent the concubine into the palace to say that she was serving the concubine, but in fact, she is also a noble person now. This woman is said to be even more beautiful, although Lin Yutong has never seen her in the palace. But with such an anxious attitude, the queen naturally felt the pressure, especially when her son had not yet grown up.

However, Lin Yutong said that such an eager family will never last long.

The queen was not unaware of this, but what was the use of seeing the result? The struggle between them must be fierce, and some sacrifices were something she could not afford.

In this regard, some people regard this as a burden when encountering this, and some people regard it as an opportunity, but for two people, it doesn’t matter whether it is a burden or an opportunity. It is still possible to ensure that a child grows up safely with his ability. As long as the child is normal in all aspects, it is not said that he can raise many outstanding talents, but at least the child can still be able to distinguish right from wrong and upright in character. Therefore, he sent it and sent it.

However, after the Supreme Emperor learned about this, he directly gave the Fourth Master a hot spring on the edge of the palace, and took out the money from his private warehouse to build a separate courtyard for the Fourth Master.
