Chapter 75 Autumn Harvest! Arrive at Shandan!
It is now the hottest time of the year, and the crops in the fields are slowly entering their maturity stage, and many people are preparing for the autumn harvest.
In previous years, Li Erlang only had to pay attention to the corn in the fields, but he had not checked the garlic this year.
The garlic leaves that have had their moss removed are slowly getting old. You have to wait a little longer until the garlic leaves continue to turn yellow and the bottom begins to wilt before harvesting.
The two previous guys were sent over again by Manager Zhang to pull garlic with Li Erlang while waiting for the harvest.
After returning from the county, Li Yu was no different from before, helping with work between the two villages, and only had time to have a dinner at Li Silang's house for two or three days.
Ji Qingyue named the two little black dogs at home "Soy Milk" and "You Tiao". When Li Erlang asked why he chose these names, Ji Qingyue only said that in the future, he would have the opportunity to let you try the classic breakfast of his hometown: soy milk and fried dough sticks!
In the evening, Li Erlang handed the two dogs to Ji Qingyue and asked them to stay in the painting to get familiar with each other. During the day, Ji Qingyue let them out again and gave them to Li Aweng to help train them and teach them some commands, at least when shouting. return.
After arriving in the county, he definitely couldn't let the puppies roam in the alleys, so Ji Qingyue planned to let the puppies go for a walk in the painting in the evening. The sky was so big that even if they grew up, he wouldn't worry about them getting lost or getting hungry. They will always come back, and when they are almost gone, they will be released to guard the house. In this way, their energy will not be too strong to affect the things in the house.
August is just a few days away. August is busy and full of expectations because it is the beginning of the autumn harvest and the time when the county examination is held.
The autumn harvest began. Suddenly one morning, Li Yu knocked on the courtyard door of Li Silang's house at the usual time and came over to help with the work. Li Erlang opened the courtyard door and saw a palm print on the child's face. It was not a new one. The injury looked like it had been sustained for several days, and had long since turned from red to purple, with scattered faint bruises occupying half of his face.
Li Yu grinned with a smile on his face: "Brother Li, I got my household registration paper!"
"No wonder I haven't seen you here in the past few days. When did you get it?" Li Erlang opened the door and let Li Yu in. After breakfast, he went to work.
"I went there two days ago. Uncle Wei and Aunt Wei didn't say anything. They started talking to me as soon as I brought up my household registration papers. They just asked me what I wanted to do. I said I would go to the county to work as a slave, and Auntie got angry and beat me. He slapped me." Li Yu touched the marks on his face. As long as the result was good, the suffering during the period was nothing. "I originally wanted to wait for the wounds on my face to dissipate in two days before coming over to express my congratulations, but my face was The injuries healed too slowly."
Li Erlang stretched out his hand to pinch Li Yu's chin and looked at the injury carefully: "Now the injury on your face can't be dispersed even if you apply medicine."
Li Yu smiled: "It's okay. Second brother Li, I want to hand over the household registration paper to...brother for safekeeping."
Since the clerk lived in Li Erlang's house, they naturally stopped mentioning Ji Qingyue, and Ji Qingyue also stayed in the painting.
"Leave it to him when you practice calligraphy at night. He hasn't gotten up yet." After a year together, not only did Ji Qingyue figure out their routine, but Li Erlang also knew Ji Qingyue's wake-up time.
As it was dawning today, Ji Qing was even more afraid that he had not woken up for the first time.
No matter how Ji Qingyue adapts to the daily routine of going to bed early and getting up early, he still has the living habits of modern people who wake up early in the morning and only get up when the sun comes out. Similarly, it is difficult to fall asleep lying in bed at seven or eight o'clock in the evening, and he goes out for a few walks. We arrived at the edge of the field in just a few steps. Of course, there was no need to get up at dawn. It was okay to get up later.
"it is good."
The two talked quietly for a while, and then Aniang Li urged them to get the biscuits and set off, eat while walking, and go to work in the fields.
Because spring plowing takes so long, the corns planted first have reached a mature stage compared to the corns planted last and are now ready for harvest.
Spring plowing lasts for more than a month, and autumn harvest also takes more than a month.
The two men followed Li Erlang to check on Hu Suan as usual, and one of them went back to report to Manager Zhang.
Another person said: "Have Manager Zhang mentioned our lady's matter to Xianglang before? The boss asked the lady to take over Hu Lian's affairs. Counting the time, we will arrive in Shandan in a few days."
Li Erlang nodded. Manager Zhang personally came to see Hu Suan's situation after the bandit suppression. At that time, he mentioned to him that the boss's sister was coming to the northwest to take charge of Hu Suan's affairs. Hu merchants and chambers of commerce, who obstructed the expansion of garlic cultivation, came together.
I don’t know how to fight against those powerful foreign forces.
Li Erlang: "I wonder if my lady boss wants to watch the garlic harvest with her own eyes?"
After the garlic is harvested, it is not transported immediately. It needs to be dried for a few days. When the garlic coating on the surface of the garlic becomes dry and the moisture inside is reduced, it is then put into boxes and bags and transported to Chang'an. In this way, no matter how long the journey is, it will cost more. No matter how long it takes, the garlic will not germinate.
The waiter replied: "Maybe he will come. The boss wrote a letter asking the young lady to take over the matter. The young lady likes to do it herself. I think she will come to see Xianglang. Moreover, the young lady has never seen Hu Suan in the field, so she should Will be curious."
Li Erlang nodded, indicating that he understood.
The city gates of Shandan County are not opened until dawn every day. The caravans coming and going are the most conspicuous and largest groups entering and exiting the county. The entrances and exits are often very loud, so the city gates have dedicated entrances and exits, and most of the roads there are relatively wide. , can accommodate a large number of fleets at the same time.
Before dawn, long queues had gathered early inside and outside the south gate. They were all caravans waiting for the city guards to open the city gate. They were waiting for the city guards to check the roads before they were allowed to enter and leave the city, rushing to Next location.
On both sides of the city's avenues, many restaurants and inns opened their doors early to attract business. Steamed bun shops, pancake stalls, and mutton soup restaurants... even the tea sheds on the roadside were full of people.
In the corner of the tea shed near the city gate, Manager Zhang had already led people to sit and wait. Like the caravan waiting to leave the city, they looked anxiously in the direction of the city gate.
The boy on the side said: "There are so many convoys backlogged inside and outside the city. If Miss were to enter the city today, I'm afraid there would be congestion. Miss, she never likes us to create such ostentation. If you don't mind, go back to the shop and wait. I'll just wait until I receive the lady's motorcade and take her to the inn I've booked."
Manager Zhang glanced at the young waiter and the waiters in the tea shed behind him, and shouted: "What do you know! If you are a lady, you will not care about these pomps, but..."
Under the probing eyes of everyone, Manager Zhang finally did not continue, and cursed in his heart: There was also a cousin who came with the young lady. Her status is delicate, what would happen if she was bumped into by the ignorant people around her? !
A few days ago, he received a letter from his employer from Chang'an. Not only did he explain that Hu Suan would be hosted by the young lady, but he also made a request to Mr. Zuo Pushe in the court, asking him to personally greet the young lady's motorcade.
Although the boss is behind Mr. Zuopushe, they have never borrowed his power without the permission of the adults. This time, it was strange to suddenly mention Mr. Zuopushe, and he specifically said that he "must" welcome the young lady "in person". This Manager Zhang will know the real purpose of his boss.
I'm afraid my distinguished cousin is also here.
Although I don’t know why my cousin came to the northwest, since this “cousin” is going to follow her to the northwest, the pomp cannot go wrong. When the city gate opens, the order is in chaos, and the city is staring at the caravan entering the city. The cooks and other clerks all rushed forward, sometimes bumping into the frame of the lady's car. If she accidentally alerted her cousin, it would be a disaster.
This cousin is really a noble lady. I don’t know how Mr. Zuo Pushe can trust her to come out alone.
Outside the city gate, among the many large convoys, there was a particularly conspicuous small convoy.
There were carriages pulling goods in front and behind the small convoy. There were only three or two warrior-looking people guarding the carriages. On the contrary, the small carriage in the middle was surrounded by people. Those people had sharp eyes and clearly reminded outsiders not to get close to the frame.
People who have been doing business all year round know what this kind of battle means. The person inside is either rich or noble, and she is also a woman, because the inner circle near the carriage is full of female guards dressed as men.
Although the idlers could not get close to the carriage, their eyes were not hidden at all, and they were openly exploring the carriage, wanting to know who was inside.
As early as when the convoy was stranded outside the city gate, people from all over the world were already chatting with each other, exchanging information they knew, and sharing the food they brought with them. No one dared to approach the convoy that flashed a warning without being discerning. .
There were two young girls sitting in the small carriage. They were used to sitting in the carriage, each doing their own thing to kill time.
The two girls were both hair-grown, wearing colorful and expensive silk skirts. They were sitting against the wall of the car, one reading a book and the other boredly picking flax from a plate of rice.
It was Xu Dan who was reading. She didn't dress up carefully during the trip. She just wore her hair in a simple bun and didn't even wear hairpin earrings. She put down the book in her hand and glanced at the person sitting in the corner. She saw that her cousin was picking flax with gusto, as if she was enjoying this boring game.
She said: "Lv Niang, why are you willing to pick flax instead of helping me calculate the account books?"
Lu Lu was also undressed, her delicate cheeks and corners of her eyes were tinged with pink, and there was only one golden hairpin stuck in her simple bun. Her round fingers twirled the polished rice in the dish, but she couldn't tell whether it was whiter than the polished rice or her hands. The color on her nails had faded, leaving a faint bright red color on the nails.
Just press your fingers gently on the lonely flax in the rice, and you can stick the flax and put it into another delicate porcelain plate.
When he heard his cousin's words, Lu Lu didn't even raise his eyebrows. He concentrated on picking the flax and counted softly: "Eighty-two. Cousin, I don't like to read the account books."
Xu Dan reached out and gently tapped his cousin's forehead, leaving a round pink mark. "Your arithmetic skills are very good. You are better than my uncle at a young age. You can never forget the figures you have seen. You can calculate the figures on the books in an instant. Why don't you like reading account books?"
Lu Lu smiled: "I just don't like watching it."
The eldest is the sister of the owner of Fengzu Grain Store, known as "Miss Dan". She is only seventeen this year, but she has already been able to support the business of her own grain store. Now that my brother is in Chang'an, he can safely hand over the business in Jiangnan. give her.
"You, what do you like? It doesn't look like you like the husband my uncle chose!"
Lu Lu then raised his head, smiling so hard that his eyes curved into a beautiful crescent moon shape: "I really don't like him, and my father didn't say that I must marry him. I don't know how to play music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I have never been good at riding, shooting, and throwing pots. No, I have never touched embroidery or cooking. My father and mother have never forced me, so I have only learned everything. After all the calculations, arithmetic is the only one that I am good at. It is a pity that the court does not Recruit female officers, otherwise I will give it a try, maybe I can make a career."
Xu Dan looked at his cousin with annoyance. She was loved by millions of people. Her uncle was in a high position, so her pampered daughter naturally did not need to cater to others. "But women have to marry after all... You don't like scholars, and you despise warriors. What should I do? Do you really want to marry my brother?"
"What's wrong with marrying your cousin?" Lu Lu asked as if she didn't understand anything.
When Xu Dan thought of his brother, he helplessly held his forehead: "Don't be joking. You can't even look down on people who are better than my brother. How can you look down on someone like my brother." His biological sister I will never rate my brother highly.
Lu Lu continued to pick flax with his head down: "My cousin is really not a good person. Even if I want to marry him, my father will definitely not want to."
My brother was disliked, and my sister was a little dissatisfied, but what my cousin said was true. She had nothing to refute: "My brother already has several concubines before he is married. For this reason, my uncle will definitely not let you Marry him. Apart from doing a little business, he can’t do anything else, so I’ll be worried.”
"Just talking about me, cousin, what about you? I don't like scholars, just because most of them see the power behind my father. No matter how affectionate they say, they don't show any sincerity. They are more attentive to my father than to me. We must be sincere. As for martial arts, if a war breaks out in this situation, it is likely to be short-lived. My father does not want me to be a widow. In the court, there are either young men with little military merit or old men with military merit. Father I don’t want to choose these people.”
Xu Dan nodded. If you want military merit, you have to go to the battlefield. On the battlefield, swords have no eyes. Military merit, along with pain, befalls the soldiers and generals together. Which one you prefer depends entirely on luck. The deeper the blade, the better. Can be buried in the soil with military merit.
"Me? I have my uncle's relationship behind me, so of course I don't have to worry about getting married. At home, when my mother-in-law looked at me, weren't you there." The identity of a merchant woman is embarrassing, and rich people look down on her. He is more interested in women from scholarly families, and his family, who have no money, do not like her.
Lu Lu recalled something and chuckled: "They, cousin, you must not choose."
When Xu Dan saw that her cousin was actually making fun of her, he rushed over to tickle her: "Of course I won't choose, and you can't laugh at me either."
"Haha, my aunt will actually believe the stories in the storybook, about the scholar who is too passionate and the young man who marries his wife and forgets his mother's kindness. Every time after listening to it, he will rush to marry your cousin for you." Lu Lu giggled cutely, The two of them were wrestling in the car: "I have a hairpin on my head. Don't touch it. Cousin, please spare me."
Xu Dan let go of his cousin, straightened her messy sideburns and bun, and straightened her hairpin: "You're right. Every time there is a new story book, my mother-in-law always has someone come to her house to say a paragraph. Ever since I heard it There is a story about a son marrying a noble wife and despising his mother, so she always proposed marriage to her brother. When my brother went to Chang'an this time, he must be afraid of his mother, and always arranges for him to meet some girl in the garden by chance. Now look at it for me, I have ignored the scholars and scholars and chosen some peasant men, saying that I don’t want to wrong me and let them marry me, which will make my father angry.”
The two arranged their clothes and hair. Before the fight, Lu Lu had already put the two plates in a safe place. Now he took them over and continued to pick: "Sometimes the words in the storybook are wrong. Scholars naturally have good scholars, but these are good ones." It’s not what we need, and it’s not suitable for us. Among the people who can come to my father, which one is incompetent, and which one can still maintain an innocent heart? My father doesn’t want me to get involved in conspiracies, and I don’t want to pick and choose. Pick four, if it comes to the time when I really have to get married, I hope to choose someone who truly loves me. Maybe one day I can also like him, so that I can truly love each other before I die."
"Alas..." Xu Dan sighed: "Girls from poor families are worried about getting married, and we girls from rich families are also worried about getting married."
The two of them chatted until the sun was high in the sky. Xu Dan had sorted out his account books, but Lu Lu hadn't finished picking out the flax. The guard guarding the carriage finally sent good news: "Miss, the caravan in front has moved. , we should prepare to enter the city."
Lu Lu responded gently: "I know."
This was to remind them that it was time to dress up. They had to show their faces when getting off the bus in the city. It was okay to cover their faces with a scarf, but it was not good to have nothing on their heads.
