I am old in the Han Dynasty

Chapter 41 is about to change

Xie Lang paused, and walked out of the kitchen, the expression on his face switched to one of surprise, joy and emotion, "Really?"

Xiaoqi likes to eat big chicken legs very much, it can be seen that his third master showed a smile, reluctantly parted with the love, and said, "The chicken wings are also for the third master."

"What do you eat?" Xie Lang asked intentionally.

Xiao Qi pursed her lips, and it took a lot of effort to say, "I eat chicken necks." Worrying that Xie Lang wouldn't believe it, she added, "I like chicken necks the most."

"Tomorrow the third master will go buy a little rooster, the kind that can't lay eggs." Xie Lang knelt down, looked at Xiao Qi with a smile and said, "I will kill it for Xiao Qi to eat when I grow up, thank you Xiao Qi for loving the third master so much."

The child grinned and wanted to laugh, but he didn't expect that he would give up the big chicken leg to his third master, and his third master would treat him so well.Should I feel reserved again, I pursed my lips vigorously, slowly revealing a row of small teeth, "I also buy pullets."

"I also buy hens, and I also raise roosters." Xie Lang snorted his little head, "Wait, the third master will kill the chickens."

"Saburo, Saburo..."

Xie Lang's brows were furrowed tightly, and he felt irritable, endlessly.

Walking over, he opened the door and said coldly, "What's the matter?"

"We - Sanlang, you, what are you doing? Sanlang, put down the knife quickly, Sanlang..."

Xie Lang followed everyone's line of sight to see the broadsword held in his right hand, and then looked at the panicked faces of the crowd, as if he was about to turn into a murderous maniac in the next moment, raised his brows, and swung the broadsword.

Everyone stretched out their hands and wanted to grab it, but when they saw the shiny blade, they froze and said tremblingly, "Sanlang, it's not, it's not..."

"Yes, Uncle Sanlang, Yao Lanhua has been taken away by her natal family." Xie Guang stretched out his hand to grab his big knife, but he thought that Xie Lang climbed trees like monkeys, killed pigs like chopping chickens, and was more skillful than his father Still agile, but dare not move forward, "Uncle Sanlang, you are still angry, shall we beat Yao Lanhua again?"

"That's right, beat her up again. Tell her to detour when she sees you in the future."

The head of the village came over and saw that everyone was gathered around the door, he couldn't help frowning, "What's the matter?"

"Lizheng came just in time, hurry up, persuade Saburo." Everyone hurriedly gave way.

Lizheng looked down the road, his hair stood on end, and he was tongue-tied, "San, Sanlang, don't be impulsive. Your house has just been built, and you still have Xiaoqi to raise. You are only seventeen, and there is still a long way to go. You——Da Lang's mother, quickly persuade San Lang." Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Yao Guizhi coming over, grabbed her by the arm, and pushed her to the front.

Yao Guizhi staggered, stabilized his body, saw the tall sword, swayed his body, and fell straight backwards.

"mother!"

"Big Lang!"

Everyone hurriedly hugged her.

Xie Lang ran over, "Auntie!"

"Show it to your aunt." Qin Hong asked Kai Kong to hand Yao Guizhi to him.

Xie Lang subconsciously stretched out his hand, Qin Hong snatched the broadsword from his hand and handed it to Xie Guang.Xie Guang took it and threw it where no one was there without looking at it.

Yao Guizhi opened his eyes and saw Xie Lang, grabbed Xie Lang's lapel and cried loudly, "Sanlang, Sanlang, why are you so stupid, you are killing me. You have something to do, how can I tell your uncle, you If you want to kill Yao Lanhua, kill me first..."

"I didn't intend to kill Yao Lanhua." Xie Lang sighed.

Yao Guizhi: "What are you doing with a knife?"

"Kill the chicken." Eat something good to comfort yourself. Only if you live in the village can you kill as much as you want, instead of going to the market to buy it.

Yao Guizhi: "It's not time to cook yet, what chicken are you killing? You just killed one a few days ago, you think I don't know? Sanlang, I have already retired Yao Lanhua, and the big guy still let you be the head of the village." ——”

"What?!" Xie Lang quickly let go of her.

Li Zheng continued, "I'm old, and many things are not as clear-headed as you young people, so I decided to give you the seat that is one mile long."

"Not rare!" Xie Lang blurted out.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and Yao Guizhi stopped crying.

Lizheng looked at everyone, Sanlang couldn't possibly agree to what I said.

"Uncle Sanlang, you are right, we will obey you from now on, you tell us to go east, we will never go west." Xie Guang said.

Xie Lang stood up and stared at him, "Your idea?"

Xie Guang shook his head again and again. Although he thought about it, he never dared to say it.

"My idea." It's not easy for Li Zheng to confess his uncle, "Sanlang, I know that you are afraid that people will come to you if they have something to do in the future, and they will come to you if they have anything to do. But you can't always think like this. If you want to be Lizheng, when the wheat is harvested, everyone goes to help, your family's eight mu of land can be finished in one day."

Xie Lang turned to him and said with a sneer, "Last year when your family harvested wheat, did the villagers go to help?"

Ri was suffocating for breath, regretting using this as an example.

But apart from the food in the field, Xie Lang didn't need help from the villagers.

"Lizheng didn't teach everyone how to make fried skin and tofu. If he did, we will definitely help."

"That's right, Lizheng is different from you."

Li Zheng felt tired, "I usually help you a lot."

"It's all trivial matters. If you don't help, we can solve them."

Li Zheng immediately wanted to curse, "Shanhuangli——"

"Speaking of Shanhuangli? In the end, it wasn't Sanlang who came up with a water-detecting tool, and we were able to drill the well so quickly. If you count on Lizheng, you won't be able to drill a well in three days, let alone later. I took two shots in the village, and since then I haven’t queued up to fetch water in the morning.”

Li Zheng opened his mouth, but this time he couldn't say a word again.

Xie Lang couldn't help laughing, "You didn't say that when I was going to announce the oil skin and thin tofu to the public just now. You still thought I wasn't qualified. In the future, I will be Li Zheng, and you are not allowed to encounter similar things again. I must do it, do I have to be kicked out of the silkworm farm?"

"No no."

Others are out of the silkworm farm, and they can't live well if they don't die.

If it was Xie Lang, the prince and his mother would have to come to thank them in person—send Xie Lang to Chang'an City.

"You are thinking about what I am doing now, so you must say so. I will make it in the future, and it will be a different face. I don't know you yet." Xie Lang turned and left.

Li Zheng hurriedly shouted: "Sanlang, what do you want the big guy to do?"

"I think?" Xie Lang turned his head and pointed at himself, staring and said, "I don't think you guys will come looking for me, I don't want to be Li Zheng. By the way, where is my knife?"

"Knife, knife, I don't know."

Xie Lang thought about it carefully, who took it just now?

"Sister-in-law, where is my knife?" Xie Lang turned to Qin Hong.

Qin Hong: "I can give you a knife. You can't be a fool anymore. It's not worth it for that poisonous woman."

Everyone suddenly thought that the most urgent task now is not the "inspector chief", but persuading Xie Lang.

"Yes, not worth it."

"She's gone anyway."

Xie Lang raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, "I won't go looking for her anymore. Can you give me the knife?"

"Okay, Xiao Guang, bring the knife," Qin Hong said.

Xie Guang said weakly: "I threw the knife away."

"Where did you throw it?" Xie Lang asked.

Xie Guang raised his finger and pointed to the east, "Over there."

Xie Lang subconsciously looked east, his face changed drastically, "Xie Guang! I'll kill you!"

Everyone was shocked and followed his line of sight to see that the big knife was stuck in the high dung pile of Xie Lang's house.At the same time, take a step back and stay away from Xie Guang.

Xie Guang saw clearly and ran away.

Xie Lang reached out and grabbed him.

"Sanlang, Sanlang, speak up if you have something to say." Qin Hong hurriedly grabbed his arm, "I'll give you my family's big knife. I can use bamboo slices to make tofu at home, and I don't need a knife."

Xie Lang saw that Qin Hong was about to cry, and let go of Xie Guang, "I'll deal with you some other day." Walking to the side of the cesspit, he picked up the big knife and went to the house.

walk.

Everyone didn't dare to stop this time, they suddenly became sober when they saw the door closed, and turned to Lizheng.

"He doesn't want to." Li Zheng said.

They didn't want to talk about this, but about tofu.

When Li Zheng heard his wife mention oily skin, he couldn't help patting his forehead, "My head is really bad." He raised his hand and pushed the door open, guessing that Xie Lang was inside to latch it, so he patted hard twice, "Sanlang, today Are you still doing oily skin?"

"You are Li Zheng, don't ask me."

Xie Lang's voice came from the courtyard.The eyes of the old and the weak, women and children in the sericulture turned to Lizheng again.

Li Zheng looked at Qin Hong, "Do you have to go again this afternoon?"

"Xiao Guang and I will go later." Selling the one made by the villagers.

Lizheng scratched his head, pondered for a moment, "Do it for two days first? Let the wine shop help us take a look. The Yao family really does it, so just follow what Sanlang said."

"You ask me?" Qin Hong looked at Lizheng, "If it can't be sold tomorrow, or the wine shop can buy me and Erlang's family, what should I do if I don't want the villagers to make it and pile it up at home?"

Li Zheng's head hurt even more.He has never done business, how would he know.Turning to look for Xie Lang, the door was closed tightly, so he yelled at the door, "Sanlang, come out!"

"Third Master, I'm calling Third Master." Xiao Qi ran to the ironware room to report the letter with his calf.

There was no pork, no mutton, no beef at home, Xie Lang finally seized the opportunity——Xiao Qi let him kill the chicken.If you miss this time, you don't know what year and month it will be next time, the knife can't be used, Xie Lang doesn't want to miss it either.

"Don't pay attention to him." Xie Lang found an iron piece, and after grinding it on the whetstone, he walked towards the chicken coop.

Xiaoqi lay on the crack of the door and said, "Ignore you."

Li Zheng choked for a moment, pointed at the door, "Come out for me."

"Ignore you!" Xiaoqi finished speaking, snorted, ran to the chicken coop, and whispered, "Third Master, kill someone who doesn't like to lay eggs."

Xie Lang shook his hand, almost freeing the old hen he just caught, "I kill the ones that don't like to lay eggs."

The child was relieved, "Master, I'll light the fire."

"Okay." Xie Lang carried the chicken, led the baby, let You Li growl outside, walked slowly to the stove, found a hemp rope to tie the chicken up, poured water and lit the fire, let Xiao Qi watch the fire, he went Kill the chicken.

Lizheng didn't yell at the person, but saw the smoke rising from the kitchen, and hurried to find Yao Guizhi before he was stunned, "Sanlang listens to you, you call him."

"Sanlang is in a bad mood, so don't look for him." Yao Guizhi was scared to death by Xie Lang just now, and dared not make him angry again, "If you can't sell it, go to the streets to sell it."

"Choose to sell?"

I don't know who to ask.

Yao Guizhi: "Then what else can I do. Why don't I keep it for myself?"

"It will take three or two days. My family soaks another pot of beans. I don't make thin tofu, but bean sprouts. So many bean sprouts are enough for my family to eat for five or six days."

"Yes, yes. Lizheng's beans are also soaked."

Li Zheng frowned, his wife wanted to persuade the big guys to take it easy when she saw it, and suddenly thought, "Our family also soaked a pot of beans."

Ri was turning to his wife, "What are you soaking beans for?"

"Make oily skin." His wife said without hesitation, "Da Lang's mother said she would help us to the city."

Seeing that her mother-in-law was still looking like she was about to faint at any time, Feng Ying said, "I'll give it to you today, and I'll give it back tomorrow if someone wants it. If no one wants it, don't try to push it to me."

Everyone's eyes moved to Lizheng again.

For the first time, Lizheng felt that the people in the village were so annoying, including his family, "You all call Sanlang together, I don't believe he won't come out."

Isn't this forcing him?

Everyone shook their heads again and again, and he came out with a knife again. The men are not at home, and these women can't stop them.

"The walls of Uncle Sanlang's house are thick, and he is in the kitchen, and he can't be disturbed by shouting at the top of his throat." Xie Guang reminded in a low voice.

Li Zheng frowned: "Shut up!"

Qin Hong tugged at her son, "Follow me to the city. If you don't go, the city gate will be closed."

Xie Guang turned around with his mouth curled up, took a look at Xie Lang's house, and stopped suddenly.

Qin Hong followed his gaze, "You are not allowed to climb over the wall. The wall of your Uncle Sanlang's house is nine feet high."

"No, I suddenly thought that Uncle Sanlang said once that he was worried that the oily skin would not be sold, so he could dry the oily skin." Xie Guang went to Feng Ying after talking, "Didn't Uncle Erlang say that?"

Everyone finally turned their eyes away from Li Zheng this time and turned to Feng Ying.

Feng Ying thought about it, "Erlang seems to have said once, I think he has nothing to do when he is idle."

"You, what Saburo said, how can you not pay attention to it." Someone couldn't help complaining to Feng Ying.

Feng Ying retorted, "It hasn't rained recently, and the oil skin I make every day is not enough for the people in Chang'an City. Why should I worry about it? God knows that woman Yao Lanhua would be so poisonous."

"Don't make noise. Xie Guang and your mother are going to the city, you go home and try it now, use half a sheet at a time, I don't believe it won't work." Li Zheng looked at his wife and daughter-in-law, "You guys also try."

Xie Lang sneered, this little thing made you yell in distress?Let's see if you still dare to take it for granted when you talk to me in the future.

Holding the map of mountains and rivers in your hand, you don't have to worry about cattle, sheep and grass.Xie Lang stewed the chicken well, and Xiao Qi and Xiao Qi ate and drank enough, added some food for the animals, and went to make iron pots.

The clay mold was not fired, so he couldn't take a shortcut. At noon the next day, Xie Lang continued to forge iron in the courtyard.

Xiao Qi wanted to go out to play, Xie Lang pretended to be wronged in front of him and said that he was very sad and wanted a child to accompany him, so the child hugged the little tiger and sat beside Xie Lang to watch him forge.

Li Zheng came over in the morning, but Xie Lang didn't open the door.At noon, when Qin Hong came back, Li was talking to her, but Xie Lang hadn't opened the door yet.

Li Zheng heard from Qin Hong that she told the restaurant about what Yao Lanhua did, and the restaurant promised not to buy Yao Lanhua's products, and the villagers could continue to make fried skin and tofu.Li Zheng felt relieved, and pointed to the neighbor next door and asked Xie Guang, "The kid hasn't come out all this time?"

"I didn't hear the door opening," Xie Guang said.

Li Zheng: "What does he eat?"

"His house has everything. There are two bowls of thin tofu. There are two water tanks in the kitchen, and the hut is also in the yard. It's fine if you don't come out for three days." Xie Guang said.

Li Zheng was angry, "He's fine, I'm fine."

"What do you want to do?" Xie Guang asked.

Li was just about to know what to do, so he didn't ask Xie Guang, and he didn't go there in the morning or at noon.

"Who does that kid have a temper like?" Li Zheng frowned.

Qin Hong said: "Let's not talk about Sanlang. Tomorrow, I will ask someone to go to the city with me and Erlang's wife. We sell oil skin and tofu, and they will look for Yao Lanhua. I think she will sell tofu tomorrow. We can't let She sold it in our name."

"Yes, it's important." Li Zheng said hastily, "I'll go door-to-door to ask who is free tomorrow." Then he walked out.

Xie Guang couldn't help curling his lips.

Qin Hong pinched his arm, "Don't talk too much."

"I just can't get used to it." Xie Guang muttered in a low voice.

Qin Hong: "It's not that your Uncle Saburo doesn't want to take care of us, he's waiting for Lizheng to give up Lizheng willingly."

"Didn't he already say it yesterday?" Xie Guang was puzzled, how could he let it go.

Although the head of the village is chosen by the villagers, he still has to get the consent of the head of the pavilion.Li Zheng has a heart, he didn't come here today, but went directly to the pavilion chief.The pavilion head went directly to Xie Lang, but Xie Lang wanted to push him away, so he could only go to "Prince Wang".

Knowing this, Xie Guang had to admit that he was still young, so he almost helped Li Zheng and forced him to be Uncle Sanlang.

"This trivial matter can make him anxious and angry. If he doesn't let Uncle Sanlang, he won't be afraid that the women in our village will make trouble with him again?" Xie Guang thought of so many people in front of Xie Lang's house yesterday. Talking all over the place, it was as noisy as thousands of ducks, one head and two big.

Qin Hong said in a low voice: "Li Zhengguan is small, and there are many benefits. Don't look at your mother, I don't know. Anyway, the court will not let him be in vain. At least a few dozen coins a year."

"No wonder he yelled at his uncle when his uncle was talking about it yesterday." Xie Guang glanced outside and said to his mother, "Save some oil skin and thin tofu tomorrow and secretly send it to Uncle Sanlang."

Qin Hong also thought so.

The next day it was dawn, Qin Hong got up and took the sheep outside, heard something going on next door, went home with a bowl of oil skin and thin tofu, knocked on the door, and called softly, "Brother Sanlang, open the door, I'll bring you something to eat. "

Xie Lang came out of the thatched hut, climbed onto the wall of his sheep pen, and climbed over to the wall of the courtyard. Qin Hong was the only person outside the door who opened the door, "Thank you, sister-in-law." Seeing that there was a knife on it, "No need. I It's okay to do it again."

Qin Hong was worried that he would not want it, so she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he had picked up the item, "Tell me when it's gone."

"These are enough for me and Xiao Qi to eat for two days." Xie Lang said.

Qin Hong nodded to show that she knew, and went home with the knife.

Xie Lang closed the door, Feng Ying came over, saw that the door was closed and went home to look for Yao Guizhi.

When Yao Guizhi went to Xie Lang's house yesterday morning to get a bowl of oil skin, he saw that his house had thin tofu and tofu, so he was not worried that Xie Lang had nothing to eat, "Sanlang doesn't care about the villagers, he will also care about us."

Feng Ying understood that there was no need to embarrass Xie Lang for the villagers.

"Will he stay in the house forever?" Feng Ying asked.

Yao Guizhi: "In two days, he's almost gone, so I'll call him. He doesn't care about the chief, he dares not ignore me."

"Xiaoqi, do you want to go out and play?" After dinner, Xie Lang cleaned up the kitchen, cow dung and sheep dung were piled in the corner, and asked the child who was holding the little tiger in a daze.

The child shook his head, "I write."

"You don't know ten characters in total. What should you write?" Xie Lang sat beside him with a straw mat, "Third Master is in a bad mood, he doesn't want to go out, and he doesn't want to work." I was tired yesterday, "I'll write something for you Is the case any good?"

The child nodded like a pounding garlic, "Okay."

"You wait for me here for a while, I'll go to the carpentry room to find wood."

There was a lot of dry wood piled inside, all used for plows and harrows.Xiao Qi knew it, so she nodded vigorously, "Master, let's go."

Xie Lang went in to find some wooden boards, then went to the stove, and came out again, holding a wooden board in his right hand and a bowl in his left, which was filled with light yellow things.

"What?" Xiao Qi asked curiously.

This season, the most delicious is naturally loquat.

Xie Lang: "It's delicious. Peel off the skin, and don't eat the hard core inside." After finishing speaking, he put the bowl beside the child and went to the house to get the saw.

The child peeled off the skin and took a bite. It was very sweet.Seeing Xie Lang come out, she raised her hand to him, "Third Master eat."

"You eat. I'll eat when I'm done." Xie Lang said, "Don't throw the skin around, put it in the stove, it will burn during cooking.

The child nodded, "I know, no one can see it."

Xie Lang smiled, "It's so good." He went to make a small desk for the children.

Across the wall, Qin Hong put on a donkey and dragged two women to Chang'an City with Feng Ying and Xiaoqi's second aunt.

In the past, Xiaoqi's second aunt didn't go with them, and Yao Lanhua, the foreign enemy, had to put aside their prejudices against each other for the time being - the women in the silkworm farm had to be unanimous.

As Qin Hong expected, they ran into Yao Lanhua as soon as they arrived at the restaurant.

Yao Lanhua saw Qin Hong and the others, gave them a blank look, pulled the cart and left.

Qin Hong took a closer look, and found that the oil skin and thin tofu on Yao Lan's float were still there.Probably because Qin Hong told the restaurant yesterday that they didn't dare to buy hers.However, Qin Hong did not relax, and asked the two women to follow Yao Lanhua. The two women went outside the city to wait for Yao Lanhua, and the remaining two went with them to sell oil skin and thin tofu.

The thin tofu and oil skins of Qin Hong and the others were sold out, and the two who had been staring at Yao Lanhua outside the city hadn't returned yet.After another half hour, Yao Lanhua and her mother came out.Immediately afterwards, the two who were staring at Yao Lanhua also came out.

When the two saw Qin Hong, they told her that the big wine shop did not buy Yao Lanhua's stuff, so she sold it to the small wine shop.Later, a little was left and sold to a merchant in Dongshi.

Feng Ying couldn't help asking: "So it's all sold out?"

The two nodded, "Yes."

"Sister Qin Hong, what should I do?" Feng Ying asked.

Qin Hong thought about it: "Go back and find Saburo."

"My mother forbids me to look for Sanlang." Feng Yingdao, "She is worried that Sanlang will use a knife to kill someone again."

As soon as these words came out, several people showed worried expressions.

Qin Hong wanted to say no, but when she thought about Yao Lanhua, she really couldn't guarantee whether it would happen or not.

Then thinking of Li Zheng, Qin Hong took people to the village to find Li Zheng, and asked Li Zheng what to do.

Lizheng thought for a long time and only came up with one solution, "You also take the carts to Chang'an City to sell oil skin and tofu." He looked at several businesses without donkeys.

"No more work at home? No more children?" asked several young daughters-in-law.

Li Zheng choked, "What do you say?"

"I want to know that I am Li Zheng."

Li Zheng choked again.

"I can't think of a way to make such a noise." Qin Hong said, "Lizheng, Yao Lanhua's current price is the same as ours. If the price is lowered, we really won't be able to sell it."

Li Zheng had a headache, "You all go back first, I'll think about it later."

"Okay." Qin Hong winked at them.After returning home, Qin Hong asked Xie Guang to lead the sheep and go to the river to graze the sheep.

Half an hour later, Xie Guang came back with the sheep and told his mother that Li was going to Tingchang village.

Qin Hong went to look for Xie Lang immediately.

"What's the matter? Sister-in-law." Xie Lang looked outside while talking.

Qin Hong whispered, "No one. I'm here to tell you that you're going to be upright."
