I am old in the Han Dynasty

Xie Lang hurriedly supported him.

"Third Master, what's the matter with him?" Xiao Qi stood up in fright.

Xie Lang put Dongfang Shuo on the ground among the people who would pinch him, and then patted his face.

"Hmm..." Dongfang Shuo woke up leisurely.

Xie Lang was about to help him up when he thought that Brother Hou, Huzi and Xiaolang were still in the courtyard, "Xiao Qi, tell the three of them to go back to the house." He glanced outside.

"Why?" The child didn't understand, and the three of them were not mischievous.

Dongfang Shuo was in his thirties, Xie Lang couldn't call him by his name directly, and called him Sir, and he was a petty official, not as good as Wei Qing, so Xie Lang called him Mr.

"Mr. Dongfang was scared."

The child exclaimed and looked at Dongfang Shuo on the ground, "Afraid of Brother Monkey?"

"Afraid of tigers." Xie Lang said, "Go quickly."

The child frowned, and looked at Dongfang Shuo again, "Why are you so timid. My grandpa Zhongqing and Grandpa Meng Da are not afraid." With a snort, he locked his good friend in the room very unhappy.

"Your Majesty also knows?" Dongfang Shuo, who was persuading himself to be dazzled, suddenly sobered up.

Xie Lang glanced outside, saw Xiao Qi close the door, and helped him to sit up, "Your Majesty always knew."

"Your Majesty is not afraid?" Dongfang Shuo asked hurriedly.

Xiao Qi walked in, "My grandfather Meng Da is not afraid."

Dongfang Shuo ignored the child because he had more important things to ask, "I seem to have seen a monkey and a monkey just now. Is that a wolf or a dog?"

"Hei Lang." Xie Lang said.

Dongfang Shuo swallowed, "You raised three?"

Xie Lang nodded.

"They, they don't bite?" Dongfang Shuo glanced at the child.

Xie Lang briefly told him about the origins of the tigers, and then went on to talk about the origins of the monkeys and wolves.At the end, he said, "People don't provoke monkeys, and monkeys don't provoke people. Tigers and wolves are fierce beasts, but Xiao Qi and I raised them. With us, they dare not mess around without our orders."

Dongfang Shuo recalled the behemoth he saw just now, and couldn't help swallowing, "No wonder you're going to the city to buy pork. Also, buy half a pig. I should have thought that you would raise five wolfhounds and eat them for a meal." Not that much."

"That's two days." Xie Lang said, "I only feed them meat once a day. It's porridge in the morning and soup in the evening."

A meal of half a pig is not a lot.

Dongfang Shuo looked out, but he couldn't see the tiger or wolf. He still felt panicked and restless, "Third Young Master, I, I think it's getting late, I should go back."

"Leave after dinner?" Xie Lang pointed to the shadow at the door, "It's almost noon."

Those three have to come out to eat at noon?

Dongfang Shuo got up abruptly, "No, no."

"You ride my donkey back?" Xie Lang said, "You are an official of the imperial court, you can ride a donkey into the city, and when you turn back, you will put it in Zhongqing's house. I will ride back tomorrow when I go to the city to buy meat."

Dongfang Shuo: "How are you going tomorrow?"

"People from our village go to the city to sell pork, and I will take their car." Xie Lang said.

Dongfang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Third Young Master."

"You're welcome." Xie Lang said, "Let's go."

The weather was hot, and everyone in the village was enjoying the shade under the trees on the side of the road. When they saw Dongfang Shuo coming out, they stood up in unison.Seeing Dongfang Shuo walking away with the donkey, he didn't say hello to them, each showing a puzzled expression.

In front of Dongfang Shuo, no one was ashamed to ask.Even the woman who talks the most in the village.Gein Dongfang Shuo's complexion was pale, and he frightened everyone by the appearance of something serious.

It wasn't until Dongfang Shuo rode out of the silkworm farm on a donkey that Yao Guizhi asked, "What happened to that Manqian?"

"I was scared by the tiger." Xie Lang said, "I wanted to come to my house to avoid the limelight, but I didn't expect it." Shaking his head, he sighed.

Yao Guizhi: "If you want me to say, he deserves to be scared to death. He looks like a human being, and what he did..." looked at Xie Lang, "You should avoid seeing him in the future."

"I know." Everyone has their own way of life, but Dongfang Shuo's practice of constantly changing wives is really inconsistent with Xie Lang's education and three views.Xie Lang also didn't want to get too close to him, "I let him come because I saw that he was caught disheveled."

Yao Guizhi felt relieved, "I saw smoke coming out of your yard, are you cooking for the tiger?"

"That's right. Huzi ran out of the house when he saw me lighting the fire, scaring him so much that he wanted to leave." Xie Lang said.

Yao Guizhi smiled, "Huzi is still smart."

"It's quite smart." The courtyard was still cooking meat, and Xie Lang was worried that he would never finish chatting with them, so he said, "I'll go and see if the fire is gone."

Yao Guizhi waved his hand, "Go now."

After closing the door, Xie Lang saw Brother Hou, Hu Zi and Xiao Lang coming out again.

"The door you opened? Xiaoqi." Xie Lang asked.

The child nodded, "Yes. That Mr. Dongfang is back again?" Then he looked behind Xie Lang.

"No." Xie Lang said.

Xiao Qi was relieved, "Third Master, I don't like that Mr. Dongfang."

"Why?" Xie Lang brought out the grapes, and the two sat by the simple stove to eat.

Xiao Qi thought about it carefully, "He's not good." Pointing to the south, "They said so. He doesn't like Brother Hou, Huzi and Xiaolang. I don't like him either."

Xie Lang guessed that the child would say this, "Mr. Dongfang is just timid. My uncle doesn't understand him. My uncle thinks that he shouldn't marry Li, but this is his own business, and it doesn't hinder others. So for us, he's not a bad guy."

"Then I don't like it either." The child insisted.

Xie Lang smiled, "Alright, if you don't like it, you don't like it."

"Can you not let him come to our house?" The child raised his head and asked, "You have to ask me to lock up Hu Zi when he comes. Grandpa Meng Da is here, so there is no need to lock Hu Zi up."

Xie Lang peeled a grape and put it in his mouth, "He's as busy as your grandfather Zhongqing, he doesn't have a horse yet, so he can't come if he wants to."

The child was relieved immediately, "Master, I'll light the fire, can you make pancakes?"

"Egg pancakes?"

The child nodded repeatedly.

"Okay." Xie Lang touched the child's head and went to make the batter.

After the meal, Xie Lang pulled the sweet potatoes into the field, peeled them into slices, and scattered them on the place where the sweet potatoes had been planted.

In the morning of the next day, Xie Lang went to Wei Qing's house to bring the donkey, took back the planer that Wei Qing had taken away as a sample, and then used the plow to open up three ridges of sweet potatoes, packed them into piles, and peeled them into slices in the field.

After four or five days like this, with the help of Xie Jianye's family, Xie Lang saved enough food and pigs to grow, and finished all six acres of sweet potatoes.

Before drying, they were scattered on the ground to dry, and Xie Lang was worried that the rain would not bring it back, so he spread it in the yard to dry.It can also be received in the house in time when it rains.

Sure enough, as Xie Lang expected, within two days, the sky turned from sunny to cloudy, and it rained heavily at night.

It rained for three consecutive days, and the villagers were worried about soaking the soon-ripe beans into bean sprouts, so the heavy rain stopped.

After a few days of drying the sweet potatoes in the sun, Xie Lang's family began to cut the beans.

After harvesting the beans, Xie Lang moved the beans to the yard to dry, and scattered the sweet potatoes on the ground, and dried them for another two days, until they broke when broken, Xie Lang packed the sweet potato chips, and then went door to door to check their dried sweet potatoes.

The undried ones continued to dry for a few days before Xie Lang went to the city to look for Wei Qing.

Wei Qing couldn't wait any longer.Because the sweet potatoes planted by Liu Che had already been put into storage.

There was no news from Xie Lang, Wei Qing wanted to go to him, but was worried that he would be busy, he couldn't cut beans, and he would have to trouble him to cook, which was a waste of help, so he endured it all the time.

Seeing Xie Lang for the first time, Wei Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought something happened."

"It's okay." Xie Lang said, "People in the village know that a stone of fresh sweet potatoes can be sold for ten yuan, and dried sweet potatoes will only be more expensive, and they will be packed when they are half-dried. I asked them to re-dry them, which was delayed for a few days. Are the horses ready?"

Wei Qing nodded, "You can go there now."

"Then let's go." Xie Lang followed him out, and couldn't help but sigh, "It would be great if there was a phone call."

Wei Qing didn't hear clearly, "What's the matter?"

"It would be nice to have a swan goose." Xie Lang said hastily.

Wei Qing frowned, "Isn't it these two words?"

"No. I'm talking about things that can send messages from our side. It seems that only swan geese can do it here?" Xie Lang asked.

Wei Qing really didn't understand this aspect, "Maybe."

"Swan goose?" Xie Lang looked at the sky, and his heart suddenly moved, "Is there any mountain behind the silkworm breeding?"

Wei Qing smiled, "You want to catch?"

"That's right. If there's anything to do after raising one, I'll just ask it to come." Xie Lang said, "If you want to come to my house to play when you're free, let him tell me in advance, and I'll be ready too." What you like to eat."

Wei Qing froze for a moment, "That's why you want Hongyan?"

"That's right. Otherwise, it would be troublesome for me to go out for something as small as today." Xie Lang looked at him, "Don't you think it's troublesome?"

Wei Qing has a horse, so he really didn't find it troublesome, "I'll ask you tomorrow?"

"Forget it." Xie Lang shook his head.

Wei Qing: "Why forget it?"

"If you take the sweet potatoes away, I'll be completely idle after planting the wheat. I'll go find some pigeons and see if I can get a carrier pigeon." Xie Lang said.

Wei Qing was surprised, "You still keep pigeons??"

"No. It's just that I don't know how to ask you about the geese." Xie Lang said, "But I'm free if I'm free. If I raise them, I'll give them to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty for something."

Wei Qing: "Then you can tell His Majesty directly. If you don't want a high official and rich salary, but something else, His Majesty will agree to you without even thinking about it."

"A token to freely enter and exit the palace gate." After Xie Lang finished speaking, he looked at Wei Qing.

Wei Qing choked.

This thing can't be given indiscriminately than high-ranking officials and generous salary.

"Aren't you—you asked for it for Xiao Qi?"

Xie Lang praised, "Zhongqing is really smart."

"Why do I hear this so familiar." Wei Qing frowned.

Xie Lang smiled and said, "Dongfang Shuo praised me. The day I came to lead the donkey, I told Zhongqing that there would be no next time. By the way, is Dongfang Shuo gone?"

"Leaving. All the cash in the family is given to the woman before leaving." Wei Qing said, and added, "I can't marry again."

Xie Lang: "That's because he has no money."

"The third son is really smart."

Xie Lang and Wei Qing were both shocked.

Turning his head to look, there was a man standing in front of Dongfang Shuo, who was none other than Liu Che.

Xie Lang wanted to ask him why he was here.Thinking about him and Wei Qing going to Shanglinyuan to find someone, Shanglinyuan is Liu Che's back garden, it's normal to run into each other on the way to Shanglinyuan.

Xie Lang made a salute to Liu Che, then turned to Dongfang Shuo, "Sir, are you busy today? How about going to Sanlang's house?"
