Famous and beautiful Tang Dynasty

"Understood, mother~"

Lin Ran's reply came from the alley.

When he walked out of the house, he was already in tears.

What is the purpose of your own efforts?

Now he is a military cavalry captain or a scholar, but his parents live in such a difficult life. His mother's two eggs deeply touched his heart and hurt his heart!

At the teacher's house in Wannian County, I still know stewed mutton and stir-fried vegetables to celebrate, but at my own home, I am busy farming and making money.

The most basic family affection is ignored.

Lin Ran wished he could slap himself twice, although he was only for a child under the age of nine, but with a mind in his 30s, he shouldn't ignore such an important thing.

Sun and Lin Zhengtai found half an egg at the bottom of the bowl almost at the same time. The couple looked at each other and smiled, and there was something sparkling in their eyes.

At the same time, I also understood why Lin Ran lied to them that someone had come to the house. It turned out that this brat had already thought of this trick.

The son's filial piety made the two very satisfied and moved. After all, the hard days are coming to an end, and the good days are beckoning to them.

"Liu Lei, put on the carriage and take a few brothers to the market to buy chickens. If you have chickens, you can buy chickens, and if you don't have chickens, you also want old hens that can lay eggs. Remember to buy as many as possible."

"Zhao Tian, ​​you take a few brothers to the market to buy piglets. If you don't have piglets, you can buy old sows. I have my own way to get rid of their foul smell."

"Zhang Zheng, take a few brothers to buy fry. If there is no fry, buy fish, as long as it is freshwater fish."

Lin Ran explained in one breath, and asked Liu Teng to withdraw some money for them.

The good habit of obeying orders formed by the soldiers allowed them to immediately act according to Lin Ran's orders without any objection.

After everything was explained, Lin Ran let out a long sigh of relief.

The moment Zhang Zhenglin went out, Lin Ran remembered that there was one more thing he had forgotten.

"Zhang Zheng, buy a few peeled sheep when you come back. If you can't bring your carriage back, give it to Liu Peng and the others who have sold out the bean sprouts."

"My subordinates remember it."

Zhang Zheng and several soldiers hitched up the carriage with Liu Lei, Zhao Tian, ​​and they headed for Chang'an City together.

Lin Ran immediately organized soldiers to build chicken coops and pig pens.

The fish pond is a ready-made natural large fish pond, which does not need any processing and repair at all.

The chicken coop is also simple, and they can be raised together in circles.

The more troublesome thing is the pigsty, which really took a lot of energy from the soldiers.

Fortunately, there are more people and more strength. The more than 400 soldiers at home are doing their jobs like a tiger. As long as Lin Ran gives an explanation, they will definitely do a good job.

The reason is simple, they see hope under Lin Ran's hands.

Not only is the food much better than before, but the most important thing is that even the military pay has been doubled several times. This is the only military officer in the Tang Dynasty who can treat his soldiers like this in an era when many military camps delay and deduct military pay.

Therefore, they have no reason not to work hard. In private, everyone is grateful to this young boss, and it is even more important not to delay their work on the surface.

After everyone cleaned up the chicken coop and pigsty to meet Lin Ran's requirements, the soldiers who went to Chang'an City to buy goods rushed back one after another.

"Son, Liu Lei is lucky to live up to his fate. Today, the subordinates in Chang'an City were lucky enough to buy all the chicks. There are 320 chicks in total."

"Okay, thank you brothers, put them all in the chicken coop, and I will hand them over to you to make feed right away."

Chapter 39 Let Parents Have a Good Life (Part [-])

The piglets and fry purchased by Zhao Tian and Zhang Zheng also arrived one after another.

Lin Ran asked everyone to scatter all the fry into the pond at the foot of the mountain.

How many piglets are stocked in each piggery, and the feeding task is assigned to each soldier, the purpose is to make everyone work more attentively.

"These piglets, chicks and fish fry will be distributed to you to raise. When they are ready to be slaughtered, whoever raises them well will get the highest reward."

Lin Ran smiled and said to the soldiers.

"Okay, don't worry, son, we will do our best to raise these piglets, chicks and fish in the pond."

The soldiers patted their chests and promised.

"My lord, these are the sheep my subordinate bought for you. There are only five sheep left in the whole market."

"I stewed four of them for my brothers, and they will eat meat at night. I have to take one home to honor my parents."

Lin Ran touched his head and said with a smile.

The soldiers cheered for a while. Although there were not many four sheep, the food smelled delicious if there was a smell of sheep.

Lin Ran asked two soldiers to carry the sheep back home.

"Brat, I called you home at noon and didn't come back for dinner. You are the only one busy all day long."

Seeing Lin Ran's return, Mrs. Sun came over to wipe the dust off Lin Ran's face with distress and said.

"Mother, I ate with the soldiers at noon. Isn't there still work to do? No, let mother taste my son's handicrafts at night."

Lin Ran pointed to the mutton on the table and said.

"Brat, are you sure you want to do it?"

Sun has a teasing expression, she will not believe that her son can stew mutton.

"My dear mother, my mother-in-law in Wannian County taught me how to stew mutton. It's delicious."

Lin Ran blinked her eyes and instantly had something to say.

"For the sake of your seriousness and the fact that this sheep was brought back by your soldiers, I will believe you once."

"Mother, just wait, and I will guarantee that my father will praise me when he comes."

"Smelly you."

Pointing at Lin Ran's forehead, Sun laughed and cursed, her heart was sweeter than drinking honey juice.

It was already late when Lin Zhengtai came back from a doctor's visit, and he could smell the strong smell of meat before he entered the house.

Lin Zhengtai swallowed his saliva hard, thinking in his heart, this stinky bitch has started to spend money extravagantly again, so he must clean her up severely at night.

"Old man, today you are lucky, our son is stewed with sheep's head."

Sun took Lin Zhengtai's medicine box and said with a smile.

"I see that half of the egg was fed to the dog in the morning. How can I let the doll cook? Don't you feel ashamed?"

"You old man, who gave you the guts? Dare to talk to my old lady like that? Didn't your dog eat half an egg this morning? But you insisted on stewing mutton for his father with good intentions. Who knew that kindness would become the liver and lungs of a donkey?"

In a fit of anger, Sun threw Lin Zhengtai's medicine box to the ground.

There was a "bang".

"Mother, is Dad back?"

"That heartless old man is back."

Sun responded with a loud voice.

"My dear mother, please keep your voice down. The child is old and sensible, and besides, he is still an official. You are so outrageous?"

Lin Zhengtai quickly covered Sun's mouth from behind, for fear that she would say something inappropriate, so Sun, whose mouth was covered, struggled to writhe in Lin Zhengtai's arms.

"cough~cough~"

A child's cough sounded at the door.

Lin Zhengtai and Mrs. Sun looked back and saw that Lin Ran was holding a large bowl of mutton and looking at them with a smile.

"Father, are you bullying mother?"

"Father, I didn't bully mother. It's not like what you saw. Did mother let your father see mother's long white hair? Is it the old man?"

With big watery eyes, Sun said to Lin Zhengtai gently.

"Yes, son. Just now your mother asked me to see if she has white hair on her head."

Lin Zhengtai responded unambiguously.

"Mother must have gray hair because of Ran'er's worries. Let's have a taste of my son's craftsmanship."

Lin Ran put the big pot of mutton on the table.

Mrs. Sun hurriedly went to the kitchen to fetch bowls and chopsticks, and put them in front of the family one after another.

A pot of steaming hot stewed mutton resolved the embarrassment just now.

"Father, mother. How about trying your son's cooking?"

"Does it need to be said? My own son is the most delicious in everything he does."

"However, your mother spoke out what is in my father's heart."

It was rare for Lin Zhengtai and Mrs. Sun to chime in together.

When Lin Ran put a piece of lamb chops in each of their bowls, and really tried the taste.

The eyes of the two instantly glowed with an unprecedented color.

"Son, did you really cook it?"

"Then do you see anyone else?"

Lin Ran shrugged noncommittally and replied.

"It's better than your mother's stew."

Lin Zhengtai pouted his mouth with a satisfied expression.

This time Mrs. Sun rarely expressed any objection, because the mutton stewed by her son was really delicious.

Two people eat sweet in their mouths.

"Stinky boy, you are not allowed to spend money lavishly in the future, and you have to save money to marry a wife."

"Yes, yes."

Lin Zhengtai took Sun's words seriously and expressed his strong agreement and support.

"My son has already saved enough money to marry a daughter-in-law. We can afford to marry a daughter-in-law no matter how precious. Dad, mother. You put away these golden pancakes, and you can spend these copper coins. My son is rich now." , I can no longer let father and mother live the hard life of the past. Isn’t the purpose of the son studying to get a good name and doing business to make money, is to let father and mother live a good life? We can buy whatever we want to eat, and we must not treat ourselves badly and let outsiders say that Lin Ran, a brat, is not filial."

After talking, Sun and Lin Zhengtai almost shed tears in front of Lin Ran.

Lin Ran took out a few gold cakes from his sleeve, and placed them in front of Mrs. Sun along with a bunch of copper plates.

Sun and Lin Zhengtai's eyes were dazzled by the glittering gold cake.

"Son, did you earn all of this?"

"Mother, this is just a drop in the bucket, otherwise how would my son rent the land from the villagers and support five hundred soldiers?"

"Old man, our good days have really come."

Sun smiled so much that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, and there were clearly sparkling things in her eyes.

"When my son will pass the exam next year, I will buy a few maids for my mother, and let them beat her legs and rub her back every day."

Lin Ran said with a smile.

"Does that mean you still have to buy some concubines for your father? Let your father not do his job all day long?"

Sun's words almost made Lin Ran and Lin Zhengtai spit out the lamb chops in their mouths.

"Don't dare to do this, don't dare to do this, son, don't have such thoughts, Father still wants Su Su to live quietly for a few more years, besides, I am already content with your mother."
