I am old in the Han Dynasty

Xie Lang was overjoyed.

"Uncle Sanlang, can you still laugh?" Xie Guang exclaimed.

Xie Lang: "Why not?"

"Well, that's even scarier than the sun coming out from the west." Xie Guang pointed at his kitchen.

Xie Lang put the rake and plow in the house, fished out the clothes and put them on the line before saying, "My aunt heard what I told you yesterday."

"Oh, I remembered, the oil skin was given by your aunt. So the tofu and thin tofu are your elder brother and second brother?" Xie Guang couldn't help but glanced south, "Your second brother may be. Although he is afraid of your second sister-in-law , but your second sister-in-law believes in you, and if he wants to send you tofu, your second sister-in-law should agree. Your elder brother is more afraid of his wife than your second brother, and your elder sister-in-law is like that..."

Xie Guang would rather believe that she couldn't sell it and throw it in the cesspit than that she would send it to Xie Lang's house.

"The tofu is from the second brother, and the thin tofu is from the uncle." Xie Lang explained, "My uncle didn't know when my aunt delivered the oil skin and the second brother delivered the tofu this morning. In order to thank me, the uncle went to the eldest brother's house to give it to me. Bring a bowl of thin tofu."

Xie Lang suspected that Xie Jianye asked Xie Dalang to deliver it, but his wife forbade him to come, so the person who delivered the tofu became Xie Jianye.But it was meaningless to tell Xie Guang about it, so he concealed this paragraph.

Xie Guang curled his lips and said, "I said it was impossible to be so kind and give away three bowls at once."

"I can't finish eating three pots at once." Xie Lang said with a smile.

Xie Guang glanced at the one in his hand, "What should I do with this?"

His mother and father have to scold him when he takes it back, without turning his head.Xie Lang didn't accept it, just left it and ran away.But he was also worried that Xie Lang would send him back later.

At that time, his mother will still have to scold him for being out of tune.

"Let's put it down. I'll tie another rope later, and put it on the rope to dry and eat later. The oily skin and tofu will be eaten in these two days." Xie Lang said.

How to eat after drying?

Xie Guang suspected that he said this, but he just didn't want to embarrass him.

Seeing the worry in his eyes, Xie Lang said, "I'll try it for you guys. The dried thin tofu is still edible. In the future, you will also dry some at home, and save it for the busy farming season. By the way, go back and ask your father, smelly Is the recipe for tofu sold?"

"Okay." Xie Lang put the thin tofu brought by him on top of the bowl of thin tofu brought by Xie Jianye, and went home to find his father.

The wine shop wanted to buy it, and worried that it was wrong, so they made a letter with Xie Bowen and others, and they would give him money when the stinky tofu was successful.

Thirteen days later, Xie Bowen came back and sent all the money to Xie Lang.Xie Lang didn't accept all of it.Thanks to his wife, Xie Lang forged iron to make plows and harrows every afternoon these days.Even if he doesn't want Xie Jianye to help, he has to let Xie Jianye do it for him.Otherwise, he would not have time to learn Xiaozhuan.

Not short of money, Xie Lang accepted three hangs, one for Xie Bowen, one for Xie Erlang, and finally Xie Dalang.

Xie Lang didn't talk nonsense when giving it to Xie Bowen and Xie Erlang, and said directly when handing it to Xie Dalang, "My sister-in-law is not happy, so I asked her to sell the recipe of oil skin and thin tofu. If you don't want it, just hold it back. If you have the ability, make a new one yourself." come out and sell."

Xie Dalang was so embarrassed, he said repeatedly, "She dare not."

"No wonder." Xie Erlang muttered.

Xie Dalang turned his head and stared at him, "What did you say?"

"She has no right to be angry. When Sanlang taught us to make stinky tofu, she was the only one who suspected that Sanlang lied to us." Xie Erlang said, "I was scolded by my parents, and my sister-in-law didn't know to stop her when she came to find Sanlang. .”

Xie Dalang blushed when he remembered the past, and handed the money to Xie Lang, "I don't want it."

"You don't want her to drive you to sleep in the donkey shed." Xie Lang stuffed it to him again, "Take it back. However, you must not say anything about it. Otherwise, if any family is in a hurry to spend money, it will definitely sell the oil skin and thin tofu The practice sells."

The three of them became cautious, and when they got home, they put the hanging money in a jar and hid it.

In the afternoon of the next day, they all went to Wen's house to buy bricks.

A few days after the bricks were shipped back, the men from the silkworm farm went out.

At this time, there were two dogs and two big geese next to the three wells in the village. Once the men left, only the old and weak, women and children were left in the village, and the women in the village were not worried.

At this time, the wheat has grown quite a bit, and the old man goes to the ground to pull weeds from time to time, and the woman makes tofu at home.

Xie Sanlang's parents worked carefully, there was not much grass in Xie Lang's field, the men were all out, no one came to plow and rake, the master couldn't find anyone to do the work for him with money, and was recruited by the court.So much so that besides making his iron pot, Xie Lang is just experimenting with clay molds repeatedly.

Xie Lang was not a scientific research talent, so he worked behind closed doors for three days, and couldn't bear the loneliness, so he asked Xie Guang to help him look after Xiaoqi, and he went around the mountain.

Xie Guang wanted to go with him, but once his father left, the job of making tofu fell to his mother alone, who would exhaust his mother to death, so he had to honestly help out at home.But he was worried about Xie Lang, "Be careful."

"I know. Not for myself, but for my Xiao Qi, I have to live well." Xie Lang stroked Xiao Qi's head, "I'll go to the bamboo forest to catch bamboo rats for you to eat."

Xie Guang: "Can rats be eaten too?!"

"Rats are not allowed. Bamboo rats are fine," the child said loudly.

Xie Guang looked at Xie Lang with disbelief in his eyes, "Really?"

"Bamboo rats only eat vegetarian food. They are different from rats that live underground and eat all kinds of messy things." Xie Lang said, "I once fed a little bit of bamboo rat meat to the little tiger, and it was fine."

"What? You actually used the little white tiger to test poison?" Xie Guang was shocked.

Xie Lang immediately regretted talking too much, "The little white tiger belongs to the mountain forest. Although it has never eaten it, its mother must have eaten bamboo rats running around. Why are you so shocked?"

"Tigers don't like mice." Xie Guang stared at him, trying not to lie to me.

Xie Lang sighed: "It's useless to tell you any more, you'll know when I catch you." He waved at Xiao Qi and left.

Xie Lang had been to Shaanxi in his previous life, and there were no bamboo rats in the mountains of Shaanxi at that time.He also wondered when he first caught the bamboo rat, because he remembered that only the south had it.

Later, I thought that the air in Chang'an at this time was more humid than in later generations, and it might be suitable for the growth of bamboo rats, so there are only here.Thinking that there are as many tigers as dogs now, and tigers will become protected animals in future generations, Xie Lang felt relieved.

I went to the bamboo grove to find two fat and big ones through the feces of the bamboo rats, and went around to the stream where the tigress was buried to check the bamboos he threw in the water. The cotton, sunflowers, corn and sweet potatoes around the spring were all He took the bamboo rat and went back home.

Xie Lang went to Xie Guang's house first, and threw the bamboo rat in front of him, "See for yourself, if the tiger sees it, will it let him go."

"So big?" Xie Guang said in surprise, "It's almost catching up with your little tiger."

Xie Guang's mother, Qin Hong, ran out quickly and saw two bamboo rats as big as cats, and blurted out, "Is this a rabbit?"

"Ear." Xie Lang reminded him.

Qin Hong looked again and again, but there were no ears turned up.

"Can a mouse grow so big by eating bamboo?" Qin Hong looked at Xie Lang in disbelief.

Xie Lang wanted to say that compared with the panda, it is a younger brother.

"One for your family? One is enough for me and Xiaoqi."

Qin Hong shook her head, "We don't need it. Send it to your uncle."

"It's not enough to send to his house." Xie Guang said, "At least two."

Qin Hong suddenly remembered that Yao Guizhi stewed bamboo rats without telling his grandson, and if his daughter-in-law found out, he would have to complain about it.But if she called her daughter-in-law and grandson over, she would have nothing to eat.

No wonder Xie Lang wanted to give it to her.

Qin Hong then said, "You haven't been to the city for a while, so send it to Prince Wang."

Xie Lang opened his mouth to say no.But he thought that he had used "Wang Gongzi" a lot recently, and he would use him often in the future, so he had to show something, so he simply said, "His mother dare not eat this."

Xie Guang continued: "Then you go up the mountain tomorrow and dig two pits to trap rabbits. We haven't been there for a while, those deer and wild boars should come out of the deep mountains."

After he reminded, Xie Lang almost stepped on dung when he thought of him going to the spring to check.He thought about catching bamboo rats and didn't look closely, but now that he thought about it, it seemed like pig feces.

"I'm going up the mountain to set a trap right now. Xiaoqi, play here for a while." Xie Lang said.

Xiao Qi knew that it was not dangerous for him to go to the mountain, so he was no longer as nervous as before, and waved his little hand to help Xie Guang pick out the stolen goods from the beans.

The next day, when it was dawn, Xie Lang got up and ran up the mountain.

The rabbit was not caught, but a silly roe deer was caught.

Xie Langxiang couldn't believe his eyes. He suspected that if he continued like this, one day he would encounter elephants in the Southwest and lions in the Western Regions, and he wouldn't even blink his eyes.

However, whether it is a roe deer or a rabbit, it can be given away.

Xie Lang carried the silly spores directly down the mountain.After taking care of the family's livestock and feeding the two young ones at home, he took Qin Hong, Xie Guang's mother's donkey cart, to Chang'an City.

Yao Guizhi originally let Xie Lang take her car, but when he saw Xie Dalang's wife in the car, he let them go first, and then took Qin Hong's car.

Yao Guizhi knew that Xie Lang was not getting along with her eldest daughter-in-law, so she didn't wait for him.

At the gate of the city, when Xie Lang was about to get off the car, he saw two acquaintances and thought he had made a mistake.

Xie Lang didn't say anything, and waited for Qin Hong to deposit the donkey before Xie Lang pointed it out to her.

Qin Hong didn't understand at first, but after looking again, she realized, "Your aunt? She made tofu? Wait, why is your sister-in-law with her?"

"I'm also puzzled." Xie Lang whispered, "Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you a few times, so I don't know how to recognize you. You should hide from sister-in-law and pull the cart to follow them. I'll take Xiaoqi to Prince Wang Home."

Qin Hong worried: "Can you hold Xiao Qi and carry that thing so you can go?"

"It's okay. I'll ask Xiao Qi to come down and walk. Let's walk for a while and rest for a while." Xie Lang looked at Xiao Qi while talking.

The child immediately struggled to get down.

Xie Lang carried him out of the car and waited outside for Qin Hong to go away with the silly roe deer before entering the city with Xiao Qi.

Xie Lang suspected what Wei Qing had said to his family, because the concierge saw him and dragged him inside without allowing him to speak.Finding that he couldn't pull it, he picked up Xiao Qi and shouted inside, "Thank you, San Gongzi, for coming."

Xie Lang cursed in a low voice, and then heard footsteps.Stepping through the door, Wei Qing strode towards him.

"You rest today?" Xie Lang blurted out.

Wei Qing laughed, "I thought I heard it wrong just now, it is unlikely that you would come over when I was at home. I didn't expect you to remember wrongly."

Xie Langxin said, you think I think it's not because there is no age in the village.

Seeing his annoyance, Wei Qing couldn't help smiling, noticed the things in his hand, and frowned, "Are you going up the mountain again?"

"The crops have been planted, and all the men from our side have gone out. No one asked me to make things. My hands were itchy. I went to dig two pits on the mountain." Xie Lang half-truthfully said.

doing things?

Isn't it tofu?

Wei Qing: "Aside from tofu, what else do you want?"

Xie Lang's complexion changed suddenly, it was all because Wei Qing was too kind to him, and he subconsciously believed that Wei Qing would become a great general with great military exploits, and would not cause him any trouble in the future, and Wei Qing's character would not harm him, which made him suffer again. Careless.

Wei Qing smiled and said, "Have you figured out how to make it up?"

"Strike the iron. Ask Xiaoqi if you don't believe me."

Wei Qing: "Of course I have to ask." But he didn't ask,

Xie Lang looked helpless when he answered.If it was a lie, he couldn't have that look on his face.

"Are you here in someone else's car today?" Wei Qing asked a servant to pick up the roe deer and lead him into the house.

Xie Lang nodded, "I won't lie to you today, I can't eat at your house."

Wei Qing looked at him, what kind of excuse was he going to make up this time?

Xie Lang scratched his head, people really shouldn't lie.Especially when the lie was exposed, but still bite the bullet and lie.

Seeing the servant bringing something fried, Xie Lang squeezed one for Xiao Qi, and moved the tea brought by the servant to Xiao Qi, and explained to Wei Qing what happened to him at the gate of the city.But he didn't mention Xie Dalang's wife.

Wei Qing didn't interrupt him, and let Xie Lang continue talking with a hum to indicate that he was listening.

The family ugliness is not publicized.

Xie Lang shouldn't have told what Xie Jianfen did.But there is no guarantee that Xie Jianfen and Xie Dalang's wife will not join forces with outsiders to cheat him.At that time, we need Wei Qing's help, and we have to explain to him again.

Xie Lang then told him all about Xie Jianfen's disturbance in the silkworm farm.

But when he said that, he replaced the kidnapper with Xie Jianye.Finally, he added, "I'm worried that she won't make any money selling tofu, so she will go to our village to make trouble. My uncle, elder brother, and second brother are not at home. My aunt can't beat her. Although I am only seventeen, I am a man after all. I'm a junior, so it's not good to meddle in women's affairs." After finishing speaking, she still had a headache.

As for others, Wei Qing is also not good at fighting with women, so he didn't doubt Xie Lang's words.

"Lizheng from your village has gone out too?" Wei Qing asked.

Xie Lang rubbed his forehead, looking ashamed to say, "Lizheng's hand is bleeding from her bite, and the scar hasn't healed yet."

"A lot of blood."

Xiao Qi spoke abruptly.

Wei Qing was taken aback, "So serious?"

Xie Lang nodded, then looked at Wei Qing.

"You, want me to come forward?"

Xie Lang shook his head, "When it's really a last resort, let your friend come forward. You and I don't dare to use it."

"Because of the emperor?" Wei Qing asked again.

Xie Lang: "Your sister. If people in our village know that I know you, I will never have peace."

You can't escape it even if you move to the city.Xie Lang didn't dare to say this.Otherwise, it would be difficult for Wei Qing to answer the question and move to the city now.

It was rare for Wei Qing to see him sigh sadly, and wanted to laugh: "Okay. If I'm not at home by then, I will ask my mother to help you find them."

"Then I will thank you first." Xie Lang said.

Wei Qing said with a smile: "You can think of me, which shows that you have accepted me as a friend in your heart. I should be happy."

Xie Lang thought to himself, it's not because I only know you as a person from the city.

"In the future when you are rich and honorable, if you can say that, then you will be my best friend. Although I can't be your confidant." Xie Lang said.

Wei Qing couldn't help laughing again, "Brother Sanlang, you underestimate yourself too much."

"Time will witness everything." Seeing that Xiao Qi had stopped eating, Xie Lang fed him a couple of sips of water and stood up holding Xiao Qi, "Farewell."

Wei Qing knew that he was forced to stay, and he was not at ease, so he happened to be free, so he sent him outside the north gate.

Xie Lang didn't want people to know that he knew Wei Qing, Wei Qing took Xie Lang as a friend, and didn't want to cause him any trouble, so he waited with him for a while and left, not daring to let Qin Hong see.

After Wei Qing left, Qin Hong came out after a cup of tea.

Seeing her solemn expression, Xie Lang hurriedly hugged Xiao Qi to meet her, "Did my sister-in-law find out?"
