Chapter 43 The second uncle is Bi Ma Wen

The second uncle really has no choice, and Liangchen also knows that he has no choice.

If you ask Eunuch Li to say hello to the county, most of the county will have to sell face.

But if you ask the horse-washing circle to greet the county, saying don’t conquer my land. I guess the good minister can be beaten out by the yamen runners, and his old Wei family will also become a laughing stock in the county.

The second uncle was a little ashamed. The brother who had not met for twenty years sent his nephew to Beijing to find him, but he could not help the family solve any problems.

Even though he was thick-skinned, he was extremely guilty at this moment and kept sighing.

It was quite uncomfortable to see the good minister.

Judging from the current situation of the second uncle, he must have lived a hard life in the palace in the past twenty years.

"Tao Li, it's rare that your nephew is here. Did you talk to the scene?" Chen Mo reminded him when he saw the uncle and nephew standing like this.

"Oh, right!"

After being reminded like this, my second uncle remembered that his nephew came all the way, and he couldn't even know where he lives.

"Good minister, come with me!"

The second uncle snatched Liangchen's baggage, and then pulled him into the horse farm with guilt and joy.

Liangchen did not refuse, because if nothing unexpected happens, the second uncle's residence will probably be his temporary residence. He has no money on him and has nowhere to go home. Now he can only point to his second uncle.

If the second uncle was in the palace, it would be impossible for the good minister to enter. Fortunately, this Jishui Pond is just a horse farm in the Royal Horse Supervision Bureau, and it is not as strict as the palace.

If any relatives of the eunuchs in the horse farm come, they can secretly lead them in. As long as they come out at night, the managers turn a blind eye to this.

Chen Mo was very tactful and did not ask the second uncle why his nephew's surname was Wei but his surname was Li.

On the way, many eunuchs on the horse farm saw the second uncle pulling a young man back excitedly, and they were very curious. Many people asked the second uncle if he had picked up a son outside the palace.

"It's not a son, but it's even more close than a son. This is my nephew and nephew! I came to see me from my hometown!"

The second uncle said to everyone that the good minister felt warm when he heard it. No matter how chaotic the second uncle was at home, he always kissed the second uncle.

Liangchen noticed that whenever the second uncle talked to him, he would always emphasize that he came to see him from his hometown. This sentence sounded ordinary, but it revealed too much content.

Among them, there is more of the lack of family affection.

For twenty years, my second uncle had never contacted his family and had never looked for him. It is conceivable how disappointed he has been in the past twenty years.

There are more than a hundred horses in Jishuitan, all of which are Mongolian horses from the Warriors' camp. However, they are only placed here in summer and will be moved to Nanhaizi, which has a pasture when autumn comes.

Uncle Er’s residence is next to the horse circle on the southeast of the horse farm. His job is to wash the horse circle. There are more than a dozen eunuchs who wash the horse circle with Uncle Er, all of whom are firemen, and Chen Mo is one of them.

These people were either too old and illiterate, had no future, and were driven here to work hard; or they offended people in the palace and were sent to the scene.

The former is almost destined to be on the horse farm for the rest of his life, but the latter has some chance to change his destiny.

For example, Chen Mo was taught by Nei Shutang. After he finished his studies, he served as the chief of the department. His future was bright, but unfortunately he offended someone he shouldn't have offended, so he immediately came to this cold corner.

The three rooms connected together are the residence of Uncle Er and his friends. There is no bed inside, but a few layers of hay laid on the ground, and mats are placed on it. Look, it is the floor paving.

Five people lived in the second uncle's room. After Liangchen followed him in, he smelled a strange smell in the air. It was not the smell of horse manure, but the unspeakable strange smell, which seemed to be scented with urine.

The smell was really pungent. Liangchen subconsciously frowned. Uncle Er didn't see it, but just took care of the joy of letting Liangchen sit.

Chen Mo saw it next to him, but he didn't say anything, and felt a pain in his heart. Because this smell was the nightmare that those who were pure could never get rid of.

Compared with normal people, eunuchs who have cleaned themselves will not urinate, and over time, the person will naturally smell.

It would be fine if you have a job, if you have the conditions, you can wash your body every day and put a sachet on your body, and the smell will not be smelled.

Those who have no job, especially those who are a little fire like Uncle Er, do not have the conditions? It’s okay in summer, so I rush in the sea. In winter, who dares to wash it with cold water?

It took ten days and half a month to have the chance to take a hot bath. Therefore, Liangchen felt that the taste was strong now. If he came in winter, he would probably feel that there was no smell at all.

It is rare for a nephew to come, and the second uncle must be entertained. He happily called a little fireman, took out a silver bean, and asked him to go out of the venue to buy some food.

Uncle Er is the head of these dozen firemen. Because he is not only the oldest, but also the tallest, and has good horsemanship and strong strength, others give him the head. The people in charge of the above will look for Uncle Er if they have anything to do.

"Good minister, you don't know that the second uncle is here to raise horses for the emperor, which is a good job! ... Does Bimawen know? It's the Sun Monkey in Journey to the West, and a Sun Monkey with such great skills do this job. Do you think the second uncle's job is good?"

The second uncle told his nephew about his errand with a proud look on his face. Liangchen knew that he was bragging, but he did not dare to nod and nodded, pretending to be impressed.

After talking about his own affairs, the second uncle asked about his brother and family affairs. Liangchen picked up some important things and told the second uncle that he had an older brother and sister above him.

"My elder brother is so lucky. In the future, two sons and one daughter will die for him."

The second uncle was happy for the elder brother for a while, and suddenly his expression dimmed. Liangchen guessed that he might be thinking of his daughter, so he told him about his elder sister Wei Chunhua's recent situation.

"My elder sister lives a pretty good life in the Yang family. She gave birth to a son. You are the grandfather of the second uncle." Liang Chen did not dare to tell the second uncle the true situation of the Yang family, for fear that he would be sad.

"It's good to have a good spring flower, just good to have a good life..."

The second uncle looked painful. He cruelly sold his daughter to the Yang family. Now he thinks about it, he regrets it very much.

Over the years, he has not slapped himself. Now he heard from his nephew that his daughter has a son and lives a good life. He is somewhat comforted by his father.

The uncle and nephew talked about the family matters. Not long after, the little eunuch bought the food. The second uncle set up the bowls and chopsticks, took out a bottle of wine left over from the corner, poured a bowl for Liangchen, and poured the rest of himself.

After dinner, the second uncle took Liangchen around the horse farm and walked around the water pool. As the evening approached, the second uncle took Liangchen back to the house, and then flipped out some money under the quilt, about a dozen copper plates.

Perhaps because I felt that it was too little, the second uncle opened the box in the corner of the wall again, flipped over and over, and finally found a silver bean and a few copper plates.

The money was not too much, and the second uncle handed it to Liangchen a little embarrassedly and said to him: "You can enter the venue during the day, but you won't allow it to stay at night. There is still someone above the second uncle who is in charge, so it's not easy for you to stay. Besides, it's not clean, so you feel uncomfortable if you stay. You can use the money to find an inn to live in first. I will find a way to ask someone to ask if Eunuch Liu can help us tomorrow."

Of course, Liangchen could not make things difficult for the second uncle. Moreover, the second uncle explained that he would ask for some help from Eunuch Liu tomorrow, so he nodded and agreed and made an appointment with the second uncle to come over tomorrow afternoon.

The second uncle kept sending Liangchen outside the venue and insisted that Liangchen leave first. When he could not see his nephew, he turned around reluctantly.

He was very happy that his elder brother did not forget him, and his family did not forget him.

Taking the money given by his second uncle, Liangchen originally wanted to find a cheap inn, but when he walked outside one, he suddenly turned around and left by chance.

He no longer went to find an inn, but went to Bei'anmen.

Ke Yinyue lives there.
