Datang Fenghua Road

After explaining this carefully, she mustered up her courage and raised her head to look at Han Yue, her eyes were still cautious, but the desire in her eyes was even stronger, and she prayed again, "Master Hou, can you do it?"

"Can you do it?" Han Yue murmured, only to feel a sudden twitch in his heart, and couldn't help but say loudly, "Why not? It's definitely possible! As long as you are willing to come, I, Han Yue, will never refuse..." This woman He had some impressions, it seemed that the family's man and his son came to die together, and she cried the most when she first came to Tianjiazhuang to claim the corpse.It is said that losing two close relatives at the same time is a huge blow, but now she is grief-stricken and wants to ask for an errand to do it.

This is not cold-blooded or ruthless, but a strong maternal love.Her husband and eldest son died, and the family lost the pillar of support, leaving behind a child who was waiting to be fed, so she suppressed her grief and prayed to Han Yue.

Women are strong when they are mothers. The tenacity of this motherhood is extremely strong, and nothing can crush them.

Han Yue only felt that his eyes were astringent for a while, and it seemed that crystal tears flowed out inadvertently. He wiped it hard and looked at the woman softly. The woman's face was pale and her hair was a little yellow. Obviously, it was because of poor family background and long-term malnutrition. Caused.

She was holding a little doll in her arms, she put her mouth on the woman's nipple and sucked it continuously, the food was very sweet.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, you can stay and do things!" Han Yue promised her softly. He tried his best to keep his voice low, for fear of disturbing the child in the other's arms.

The woman heard his agreement, and the color in her eyes suddenly became alive. As long as there was work to do, she could earn a bite to eat and drink with her own strength, and her children could be raised smoothly.

One's hope is to rekindle confidence in life.

Han Yue suddenly had a good idea.

His eyes stayed on the women for a while, then he looked at more women, and saw that many of them looked terrified, but with a trace of tenacity in the terrified.He waved his arms violently, focused the attention of the people, and then said loudly: "Everyone next door, the request of this sister-in-law just now gave me a lot of inspiration. It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Previously, I only wanted to help everyone with my own financial resources, but now I think it is wrong to do so. If people keep improving themselves, the heaven and the earth can conquer, and I have come up with a very good way..."

He cleared his throat, his eyes kept scanning the crowd, and he continued: "Everyone knows that I am a marquis conferred by the imperial court, and I am a person with imperial orders." This is actually a white lie, Li Shimin Although he was awarded the title, he made it clear that he would not be an official in this life, but now Han Yue can't care about it. The ancient people had an inexplicable blind obedience to the people of the court, and Han Yue had to take advantage of this situation.

He continued: "I want to tell you the good news. Not long ago, I developed a special food, which has been determined by our Majesty the Tang Dynasty as the supply of military rations. This kind of military ration is very good. A large order. Not only has the order been given, but the supply is all year round. I am about to recruit a large number of employees, and I don’t know if everyone is willing to come to work…”

The people were a little dazed and seemed to be happy.They don't understand things like orders, but they understand what it means to hire.

Han Yue took the opportunity and said again: "Don't worry, everyone, I, Han Yue, have always been generous in hiring people to do things, and this time I want to hire people who produce military rations. Not only is this work not tiring, but I can also learn skills. I'm going to pay thirty cents. The price of a day, both men and women can come, I wonder if everyone agrees?"

Thirty Wen?one day?And regardless of gender.

The eyes of the people gradually brightened, especially those women who were helpless and helpless, their expressions became more excited.

In the ten years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, I have never heard of anyone who can hire someone for such a high price.It's hardly hiring people anymore, it's doing good.

Just lost a loved one, and the dawn suddenly appeared.In life, I really see hope again.

Chapter 110 Who Will Really Treat Civilians?

Han Yue used his promise to give hope to the people, but his old acquaintance Wang Lingyun had already stepped into the north.

The Tang Dynasty is different from the Turks. Human nature breeds brilliance. Although it has suffered tragic disasters, it has hidden vitality.The people of the Central Plains helped each other under the leadership of Han Yue, but the Turkic grasslands were a completely different scene.

There is a song that says: Chilechuan, under the Yin Mountain, the sky is like a dome, covering the four fields, the sky is blue, the fields are vast, the wind blows the grass and the cows and sheep are low.

This is the grassland in the eyes of poets, full of beautiful northern customs, but literature is only an illusion after all, and reality is different after all.

As if a gloomy wind was blowing from hell, the vast grassland changed overnight.The grass and trees were frozen by the frost, and the cold wind was like a bone-scraping steel knife.

Snow is coming!

The snow came so fast that it formed a white-haired wind that was rare in a century, covering the sky and the sun, wreaking havoc.The pervasive cold wind seemed to come from Jiuyou, it directly blew through the leather jackets of the herdsmen, and many people were frozen blue.

The same goes for Shepherdess Tour!

Her sheepskin jacket was very worn, and it was covered with patches of different sizes. Although the stitches were fine, there were too many stitches, and many places could not block the entry of the cold wind.

She was wearing a pair of straw sandals, which were woven by Youyou herself. Her handwork is very good, and the straw sandals are very beautifully woven. Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful the straw sandals are, they cannot keep warm. There are no sheepskin boots to prevent the severe cold. .

Although the clothes are so thin, Youyou still stays in the wind and snow.She stomped her little feet vigorously, clawed away the snow with both hands, and then used a scythe-like tool to cut the grass vigorously.

She has been doing this job for three whole days, getting up before dawn every day, until the night is dark and can no longer see things.Behind her were hundreds of haystacks, one every twenty steps. Each haystack had about a hundred catties of grass, neatly stacked there.

Youyou is not alone, there are many women and herdsmen working with her, but because Youyou is a young girl, and she is very beautiful, she looks a little abrupt in the wind and snow.

Her slender body is not as strong as ordinary Turkic women, but Youyoumows no less grass than them.If there is a ranking, she can even get the first place.

A middle-aged woman next to you admired Youyou's ability. She looked back at the haystacks behind her from time to time, compared Youyou and her own labor achievements, and said enviously, "Youyou is really amazing, it's only been three days of mowing the grass. , You have already harvested so many haystacks, no wonder everyone said that Youyou is the most capable."

Youyou listened to her compliments, and forced his head to smile, but his hands didn't stop at all.

In fact, she was already tired and hungry, but she persisted with perseverance.Everyone else would sweat when they were working, but she felt like she was about to freeze, and even the movements of mowing the grass were mechanical.No way, I was so hungry, I only ate half a piece of jerky all day, and I had absolutely no energy in my body.

She grabbed a pile of snow, gritted her teeth and stuffed it into her mouth. The cold snow water trickled down her throat and into her stomach. She shivered, bent over and continued to mow the grass.

"Youyou, take a break!" The middle-aged woman was a little worried, she grabbed Youyou's hand and persuaded: "You have already mowed so much grass and you have eaten so little, and you will die if you go on like this. Good Youyou is obedient, hurry back to your yurt to rest for a while, we adults are not as desperate as you, go, I will take you back..." Saying that he exerted his strength, he was about to pull Youyou home.

"No, Ayao!" Youyou shook her head desperately, her small face was frozen blue by the cold wind, but she bit her lip stubbornly, and said with tears in her eyes: "This year's snowstorm is too early, Bai Mao When the wind blows, neither cattle nor sheep can graze. We poor people live by grazing for nobles. If we don’t work for a day, we have no food for one day. In order to save food, my old grandfather sneaked into the wind and snow the night before yesterday. She freezes to death, last night I found out that Eminem also has this plan, she wants to save the food for her brother." Youyou said here, the tears in his eyes became more turbulent, the cold wind whistled, and the hot tears turned cold in an instant. , her long eyelashes seem to be hung with many crystal pearls.

A Yao, a middle-aged woman, sighed sadly. She saw Youyou crying sadly, for fear that the tears would hang on her face and be frozen by the cold wind, so she wiped it off with her sleeves, and at the same time gently advised: "Youyou don't feel sad. It is the life of our destitute people. Whenever winter comes, there are always many old people willing to walk into the wind and snow for the sake of their children, but your old grandfather just returned to the arms of the god Sirius.”

"No!" Youyou shook her head in pain, she shrank in Ayao's arms and cried, "He died of starvation, Youyou heard your story, the poor people who died of starvation are not qualified to see the Heavenly Wolf God. , woo woo, Ayao, my old grandfather must be suffering underground."

A Yao sighed again, she gently wiped Youyou's tears, but didn't realize that her own tears were quietly flowing out.Youyou is very pitiful, why is she not like that?Just last night, her crippled husband sneaked into the wind and snow. Before leaving, he stuffed the only piece of meat in the family into her arms, and at the same time carefully covered her body with a piece of meat. old sheepskin.

The sheepskin was the compensation for the husband who was injured in the war with the sweat. It should have been given two, but one was deducted by the nobles of the tribe.

Youyou suddenly broke free from A Yao's embrace and said to her: "A Yao, let's hold on for one more night. In order to store enough grass, the nobles of the tribe specially ordered us a hundred catties of grass and two pieces of jerky for us. Reward, this is something that has never happened before. As long as we work hard, we can get enough food in exchange, so that my Eminem and my brother will not starve to death, and your children will be able to survive this winter. "

A Yao nodded. She looked back at the haystacks behind her, and found that there were many haystacks on Youyou's side, but few on her own side. She said sadly: "It's a pity that my left hand was broken by the nobles of the tribe, otherwise I could have done it." Cutting more than 100 haystacks like you can exchange for more than 200 pieces of dried meat, alas, after I hand in the pasture, I should sneak out of the yurt..."

Youyou was taken aback and quickly said, "Ayao, don't be stupid, your child is so young, if you walk into the snow and freeze to death like my father did, your child will still die if no one takes care of you. When she said this, she seemed to feel that the persuasion was not strong enough, and solemnly added: "Even if you use grass to exchange food for him, he will die if no one takes care of him. He is too young."

"Alas!" A Yao sighed sadly. She looked back at the gathering place of the tribe in the snow, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she saw her own A'er.

Youyou bit her lip, she was kind-hearted, and she couldn't see A Yao's pity the most.With a tangled expression on her face, it took a long time to make up her mind, and she forced a smile: "Ayao, don't worry, I will help you. As long as I cut my own share, I will help you..."

She said, in order to prove her strength, she took A Yao and pointed to the haystacks behind her and said, "Look, I have cut hundreds of haystacks, and I'm about to make up enough for the winter. I will soon be able to help you!"

A Yao's eyes were stunned, she looked at You Youyou's bluish little face, and felt very moved, she couldn't help but hug You You in her arms, and murmured: "Hao Youyou, you really are The kindest person on the grassland. Thank you, we will work together to cut enough grass..."

"Yeah!" Youyou nodded heavily and gave her a sweet smile.

The two destitute women cheered each other up, and were about to start work when they suddenly felt the ground under their feet tremble, and then they heard the sound of hoofs coming from the wind and snow.

The sound of hoofs was very rapid, dense like raindrops, and rumbled in the cold wind and snow night, from far to near, as if it came to the front in the blink of an eye.

Like a torrent without any turning, countless cavalry galloped madly, galloping straight ahead.

The iron hoof went crazy, running over the ground in an instant, kicking countless hay stacks into the air.

"No..." Youyou yelled, almost subconsciously trying to stop the cavalry, and he kept crying: "My pasture, my pasture, don't kick my pasture away."

Her face was pale, but she felt a pain in her chest, and tears welled up in her eyes.

However, the cavalry completely ignored the cry of a shepherdess, and thousands of war horses kept stepping on it, and the grass that Youyou had painstakingly cut was quickly smashed into the snow.

Youyou's tears were blurred, and she vaguely saw a Turkic man wearing a cloak passing by her, suddenly took out a piece of jerky, and said with a savage smile: "Little Shepherdess, Jieli Khan wants to go south to the Central Plains, and the athletes are marching fast in order to speed up the march. , you can only step on your pasture, and you can cut it again!"
