Chapter 259 Population reproduction(1/2)
Huo Bao blinked, feeling quite strange, but he didn't show it on his face. He said honestly: "No, it's just that Mr. Lin always told his son to go to the palace school. His son was impatient and could go as he could. There was also the big town of Yangzhou, which was as prosperous as Jinling. It was a pity to just keep it like that. Go and see what you could do!"
Huo Wu coughed twice and said, "I don't like to go to school... well... this..."
After all, Huo Bao's age is not the same age as the one to study.
It's really hard to follow the ups and downs this past six months.
"There is no need to go to Yangzhou. Now it is winter, the weather is cold, and it is hard to travel!"
Huo Wu said with some pain.
"At most, I'll be back in half a month. Don't worry, Aunt Liu made winter clothes and thin jackets for her. Uncle Liu asked the embroidery room to make big and small sweaters for her, so she couldn't be cold..."
Speaking of this, Huo Bao was worried about his father's serious illness last year and said, "If the qi turns cold today, I remember to take the loquat paste every day... Let Dr. Bao prescribe two health prescriptions, so don't suffer from old diseases again."
Huo Wufang felt so sad that he was bubbling, and he felt sad about raising a son for others. Now his heart was soft and very soft, and he said, "I'm eating, not only me, but also let Lao Bao prescribe your sixth uncle, Master Lin and others..."
If Huo Bao hadn't been young, Dr. Bao said that there was no need to supplement the patient, Huo Wu would also want to supplement his son.
Huo Bao hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, mom has celebrated his anniversary..."
Tu's family suffered from the epidemic last year and died on October 28th.
On October 28th this year, the day when the Ma Village leader "Xiang Ge" was the anniversary of the Tu family.
The Huo family and his son did not disturb others, so they privately offered sacrifices to Tu San.
According to the rules, Huo Wu also officially gave his wife filial piety.
Huo Wu told his son about Gao Li maids, but the ninth uncle Shenlong saw his head but didn't see his tail, so he didn't know when he would be able to send the candidates.
There was not even a person who asked about his well-being around Huo Wu.
Huo Bao said: "Dad, your son is not a child anymore, and no one can bully his son."
Not to mention Huo Wu taking a concubine, even if Huo Wuzhen continues to marry, he is not the pitiful little person who can be bullied by his stepmother.
Huo Wuyi glared and said, "Okay, okay, don't worry about this!"
...
Although I have decided to go to Yangzhou, I have to wait for the Feng family to investigate and I am not in a hurry to set off.
Because of Huo Wu's questioning that day, Huo Bao's heart was also quite subtle.
Dad is too lonely.
His whole mind was on his son, and his son's attention changed and he felt a little "resentful".
Huo Bao didn't find it ridiculous, he just felt it was sour.
The father and son lived in the same house. They met each other every day before, but they just met each other, and they each had a lot to do.
From this day on, Huo Bao returned to his early habits and started to spend three meals a day with his father.
Even Dr. Bao’s prescription, Huo Bao also took a look at it himself.
Huo Wu noticed something was wrong: "Why are you not busy these two days?"
Huo Bao said: "The weaving factory has been handed over to Uncle Six. The leopards in the firearm camp have also thought about it. Hou Xiaoming can handle the same thing in the child soldier..."
The weaving factory was originally made by the owner of the Ma village. Huo Bao combined it with one hand, but it was just a coordinated design of the "assembly line".
However, the preparations for the firearm battalion are from scratch, and they also require confidentiality regulations and security, which is quite complicated and very troublesome.
When it comes to firearms, Huo Bao must be mentioned.
"The leopard comes from, and the tiger is used as a use, and it can stand up with the foal in the future... The stone finally looks a little bit like that, but I don't know what happened to your second brother." Huo Wu said with some regret.
Huo Shun set out for Liaoyang in May. Half a year has passed, and there is no news and life and death are uncertain.
In early September, people were sent to investigate, but Liaoyang was too far from Huainan and there was no news yet.
Uncle Huo was in his sixties and his children and grandchildren were withering, and only one son and one son were left. If there was a mistake, I would be unable to bear it.
When Huo Bao thought of Uncle Huo, he couldn't help but complain: "Is Uncle Huo so confused?"
Last year, the epidemic occurred in Nanshan Village, killing most villagers, including Tu and Uncle Huo's wife.
Huo Wu quietly burned his anniversary because he was afraid that people would keep an eye on the matter of remarrying.
Uncle Huo really had the idea of remarrying.
In fact, he had already taken a concubine in Binjiang in June this year and was not alone in serving him.
Logically speaking, if Uncle Huo continues to marry, it is not related to Huo Wu and his son.
But in the eyes of outsiders, Uncle Huo, Mr. Huo Wuyi, and his uncles and brothers, who are the same ancestors, are the closest members of the Huo clan.
Uncle Huo’s house filling is Huo Wu’s cousin’s sister-in-law and Huo Bao’s aunt.
However, if he really wanted to renew his marriage, the biggest influence was not the Huo family's father and son, but Huo Shun's uncle and nephew, who immediately had a living ancestor.
After all, this clan is just a clan relative, and his own family is different.
Huo Shun had several stepmothers who were younger than a few, while Huo Lei had several stepmothers who were about the same age as him.
In the future, even if Huo Dabo goes west, Huo's parents' house will still be in charge of his ancestors.
Huo Wu rubbed his forehead and said, "I have said everything I should say, but I can't stop you... The older you get, the more timid you are. Your uncle is afraid. What if your second brother has something wrong with Shi Tou, and the eldest room has broken blood..."
Hum? It's for the sake of a child?
"Isn't it possible to take a concubine? Why did you mention remarrying?"
Huo Bao didn't understand.
Uncle Huo is now just a wealthy and idle person, but he is Taiwei Huo's cousin, so he only has this identity to rise up.
Huo Wu's face was hard to describe.
Speaking of which, Uncle Huo had long been thinking about the weak bloodline of the Huo family, and had long been thinking about persuaded Huo Wu to take a concubine and ask for a son, just waiting for the anniversary of the Tu family.
Huo Wu was impatient when he was talking about it, so he said that he had not been able to take a concubine and ask for a child in his early years.
When I married Tu, I found someone to see him and said that Tu's mother was the one who was good for her.
The Tu family’s mother gave birth to four sons and two daughters, and it is reasonable to say that Tu family’s Yizi is good.
Even so, after more than ten years of marriage, Tu only gave birth to Huo Bao, the only seedling.
Uncle Huo was not discouraged, but became more excited.
Isn’t it just “Yizi’s appearance”?
In such a huge Jinling, it is not easy to find a woman who is suitable for giving birth to such a child?
I asked someone to inquire in private and found a similar candidate.
Zhen's.
The sister of Zhen Dajie and Zhen Shanchang, and Jia Yan's wife.
The Zhen family was twenty years old and got engaged to the children of the Zhang family of Jinling gentry and married on the 15th.
After getting married for three months, Young Master Zhang was drunk and went crazy after getting drunk, and accidentally injured his 18-year-old uncle to death.
The two families rebelled and the couple was in a vain.
Zhen was taken home by her father and brother, but she gave birth in June and gave birth to a son.
The Zhang family begged the middleman and wanted to pick up his son, but was beaten and scolded by the Zhen family.
This son was directly recorded under the dead Xue San and became Xue San's heir.
Zhen remarried after giving birth for 100 days. This time she married someone as her second wife, but she married two children in three years and gave birth to two sons in a row.
However, her husband's family happened to be the minions of the former prefect. After the Chuzhou army entered Jinling, her husband and stepson were all on the list and were questioned and beheaded.
Mrs. Zhen felt sorry for her daughter and asked her son to pick up her daughter and grandson went back.
After three sons in the fourth year, Zhen's "Yizi's appearance" was spread.
Uncle Huo asked carefully and said he had to talk to Huo Wu.
Huo Wu only found it absurd.
How idle is he? He wants to take a concubine and how many stepsons he has?
Huo Wu said something inappropriate and refused the matter. I wonder why Uncle Huo was moved.
Before, he wanted to introduce Huo Wu as a concubine; when he arrived at himself, he knew that he was old and had many shortcomings. He had no shame in forcing the daughter of a gentleman to be a concubine, so he wanted to marry him seriously.
"It's too idle, I have to find something for your uncle."
Just such a cousin, who was taken care of by Uncle Huo in his early years, did not want to break up.
Huo Bao frowned and said, "If the second brother is here, my uncle's ears will become softer and softer!"
Uncle Huo knew the details of Huo in Nanshan Village. Except for the doubtful identity of Master Huo Wu who was brought back, the other four rooms were not from Master Huo’s blood.
In this way, what else can be entangled?
I really feel that it’s thin, so I just adopt a few adopted sons and grandchildren.
