The official road of the farmer

After Ye Junshu went out, the courtyard was full of people and surrounded by a large circle of people, making a lot of noise.

He listened to it, and it was mostly praise and surprise. When the villagers saw Ye Junshu, they voluntarily moved out of the way, and they were still talking.

"Good guy! It's the first time I've seen so many prey!"

"Yes! It's amazing!"

"..."

Ye Junshu smelled a strong smell of blood before he saw it. When he walked to the innermost part, the ground was piled full of prey. Most of them were wild pheasants, rabbits, and roe deer.

Ye Junshu: "..." Is this the rhythm of looting the mountains and forests?

Two brothers, Li Yu and Li Changchuan, stood not far away. When they saw Ye Junshu approaching, Li Changchuan smiled and said, "The environment here is really good, wild animals are everywhere!"

Li Yu also said: "We just circled around and found traces of wild boars. Let's go up and look for them another day."

If it wasn't for the lack of time, they still wanted to catch the big guy back.

Ye Junshu nodded, thinking about it, it should be that few people have caught wild animals these years, leading to a flood.

Although they are easy to hunt, it is because they have skills and know the skills of catching wild animals. Ordinary people want to hunt, it is purely luck.

In the past, when Li Hongying was here, every year after the autumn harvest, he would bring young and strong men into the mountains to hunt. After Li Hongying left, it was Ye Junshu, a middle-aged man, who led the team.

Ye Junshu also left within two years. There were not many people in the village who knew how to hunt, and life was much better than before. Occasionally, a few young people went to the mountains in groups to catch prey to satisfy their hunger, but they were only on the outskirts.

After all, there was no large-scale hunting activity like before, and there were no people like Li Hongying and Ye Junshu who went hunting in the mountains every now and then to make money.

Therefore, it is normal for wild animals to flood the mountain in a few years.

Ye Junshu felt relieved when he saw that Li Yu was clean all over.

Ming'am was there too. He looked at the pile of prey and asked Ye Junshu, "Zi Zhou, what do you think about this?" With so many prey, it won't be long in this weather, and it might be broken tomorrow, what a pity.

Ye Junshu thought for a while, and said, "I'll trouble the folks to cook it all, Pingbomu, Ming'am, and then you will arrange for the villagers who come to help to share a bowl of meat back." , but they also have a lot of family members. It may not be enough for one person to take one back, so they can only divide it like this.

"Okay!" Ping Bomu and Ming Amu responded back and forth, eager to fight, and then arranged for people to come over and deal with the prey.

"Zizhou, don't worry, the girls will definitely fix it, you just wait to eat!" They have already quickly decided which ones to braise and which ones to braise.

Before the sky completely darkened, all the meat was processed first.

Originally, they thought that each family would produce a chicken and slaughter it to deal with the night first, but now there is no need to slaughter the chickens raised by the family.

Ye Junshu said to the Li Yu brothers, "Let's go into the house."

The yard is messy, and the folks are not comfortable with them standing there.

Li Yu and the others did not refuse, and followed Ye Junshu into the house.

Qin Yaoliang also followed. Although he and the Li family had very different identities, he was quite hearty. After a few contacts, he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

"Some elders in the village are here." Ye Junshu said to Li Yu.

Li Yu nodded.

After entering the hall, the uncles who had been sitting stood up.

Ye Junshu smiled and introduced to everyone, "Uncles, this is my husband, Li Yu."

Then Li Changchuan was introduced.

Li Yu didn't know how to address them, so he called them uniformly.

The uncles of the Ye family couldn't sit still. After all, the Li family were all officials. It was said that they were still high-ranking officials. They couldn't help but feel weak when they heard it. How could they dare to sit on an equal footing?

Zizhou was the younger generation they watched growing up, so they didn't say they were uncomfortable.

Although Li Yu sat on the side and didn't speak, Li Changchuan talked to the villagers with a gentle attitude, and Ye Junshu and Qin Yaoliang's lively atmosphere quickly dissipated the invisible stiff atmosphere.

They continued the conversation on the topic just now.

As one of the parties involved, the Li family naturally followed the customs here, and only listened without making suggestions.

When you encounter something you don't understand, just ask.

Li Yu listened carefully and silently wrote down what he should do.

When the sky was slightly dark, the Ye family was brightly lit, especially the courtyard was in full swing.

Inside the house, the host family and the famous elders in the village are sitting in the hall.

Several temporary stoves were set up in the yard in front of the outdoor kitchen. The firewood was crackling, and large pieces of meat were being fried in a large pot.

The adults were busy, and the children couldn't help being tempted, squatting in the yard and drooling at the delicious meat.

In the end, Brother Lu took the initiative and took two large bowls of cooked meat to satisfy the children's hunger.

The children are also sensible, and each of them got a piece of meat, so they ran out to play nearby.

There are many people and strength, and a table of dishes will be prepared soon.Full of six large dishes, full of weight.

Ye Junshu and the others served as the main table, and specially cooked twelve dishes, making sure that the new husband and uncle would not feel neglected.

After all the people brought back by Ye Junshu were at the table, each family left a younger brother to eat at the same table, and the others shared a bowl of the rest and took them home to eat with the family.

Except for Ping Bomu and Ming Amu, those left behind are relatively young husbands from different families. They are going to help clean up after eating.

Ye Junshu himself said that he brought people back, but if there are more people doing things, it will be faster.

After eating and drinking, the villagers dispersed and the yard was cleaned up. Some brothers were assigned to Uncle Li's house and left.

The Ye family compound was quiet.

The bathrooms are used in turn.

The children took a shower one after another, and soon went back to their room to sleep.

It was Li Changchuan's turn later, and finally Li Yu and Ye Junshu.

Fortunately, it's summer, and the brothers have been busy all day, and they can swim in the river at night, and they feel refreshed.

It was inconvenient for Ye Junshu and the others to go, so they honestly lined up in their own bathroom.

It's a pity that Li Yu still doesn't want to have a mandarin duck bath with him.

Ye Junshu thought about it.

Yejia Village is surrounded by mountains. At night, there is a cool breeze, which takes away the heat of the day.

It was just right for Ye Junshu to take a warm bath.

When he returned to the room, Li Yu had already done everything and lay down on the kang to sleep.

It is very cold here in winter, so basically every household burns kangs and rarely makes beds, and Ye Junshu's house is no exception.

At this time of summer, it is very comfortable to spread the mat on the kang.

Ye Junshu took off his clothes, leaving only his trousers. He lay down on the side, casually put the thin quilt on his lower abdomen, and then pressed it on top of Li Yu.

Li Yu pushed him, "Hot." So don't get so close.

Ye Junshu took advantage of the trend to move a little further away, but he was still close. He held Li Yu with one arm, and leaned against him, and said in a low voice, "Take off your clothes and go to sleep to cool off."

Li Yu was naturally against it, he always wore clothes when sleeping, for Li Yu, it was correct to sleep in underwear, but Ye Junshu didn't wear any!

Li Yu also said a few words at the beginning, Ye Junshu listened to it, and occasionally wore it a few times in winter, but most of the time he didn't wear it. It took him a long time to get used to it.

In fact, Ye Junshu can sleep with or without clothes on, and he didn't say that he is not used to it, but since he has a husband, he likes the feeling of skin-to-skin contact, so he can do whatever he wants in his own place.

It's a pity that Li Yu didn't cooperate.

Ye Junshu complained.

Ye Junshu said, "These days will be very busy, you should be prepared. Did the uncle say when he will leave?"

Li Changchuan said before that he would stay for a while, but he didn't say how long.

Li Yu replied, "Brother will stay for ten days. Then he will leave directly to go there."

When Ye Junshu heard this, he calculated in his heart that it was just right for the elder brother to leave at that time.

Of course, he didn't want to drive people away, but it's more convenient for him and Ah Yu to go to the world of two without the eldest brother-in-law!

However, Ye Junshu's mood was not very good when he thought that his uncle would not know when he would meet again.

The two didn't chat for a few words, Li Yu said, "Go to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow."

Ye Junshu responded, bowed his head and kissed Li Yu, then lay down and closed his eyes.

The next day, Ye Junshu got up early, distributed out the invitation cards that had been prepared, and asked the guards to deliver the letters, and the villagers in other villages were notified in detail.

Apart from this matter, Ye Junshu was not idle. He asked Ming'am to help collect more food and vegetables in the village, as much as he wanted.He spent money to buy it, but he couldn't let the villagers suffer.

Although the life of the folks in recent years has been much better than before, he can't take advantage of them.

Then I went to visit the county magistrate with Li Yu, and personally delivered the post by the way.

Even if it's just a ninth-rank official, after all, he is a county magistrate, he still has to give face.

After assigning the task of recruiting people, Ye Junshu was not idle.

He went to the village school to give lectures to the children.

Their village is the only school in the nearby villages. The village next door wanted their children to come and study together. The village head Rong Bo did not refuse, and only accepted some of them as a symbol. However, he was also smart, and each village only had ten places. .

There were many children in their village, and the school they opened was not big. Besides Qin Yaoliang, there was another gentleman.But there are already seventy or eighty children who go to school for enlightenment from the age of seven to 14.

No more can be accommodated.

Ye Junshu took a look, this is not good, there are not many teachers, and the energy for cultivating children is not enough, so in addition to making the children literate, it is very difficult to take the imperial examination.

It is still a graded class, and select some smart children to focus on training. Ye Junshu mentioned the teaching model he knows to Qin Yao, and he thinks it is very reasonable.

They are divided into classes A, B, and C, and there is a big exam every semester. Those who rank in the top not only get rewards, but also can go to class A, focusing on cultivating young candidates for the imperial examination.

But now the husband is not enough, and he has to recruit outside.

Moreover, the school is too small and needs to be expanded.

Although the village is surrounded by mountains, its area is quite large. The people in the village basically live together, and there is also a lot of uncultivated land.

However, it is impossible and unnecessary to build a school with a capacity of hundreds of students. The nearby villages don't have that many children.

The expansion area of ​​the original school was not large enough, so we had to choose another site. Ye Junshu asked Uncle Rong to see where a new school was suitable, and Uncle Rong naturally had no objection.

Just choose a place in the wasteland outside the village.

Speaking of this, Uncle Rong said to Ye Junshu: "Zizhou, you also choose a homestead, it's time to build a new mansion."

Ye Junshu is a big man in their village, and he would not be eligible to live in a farmhouse. He should have a mansion bigger than a landlord to be eligible.

Ye Junshu just wanted to refuse, but when he thought that his home would not be able to live in now, after staying for a few years or more, the children would all grow up and have families, and in the future, they would all bring their families back with them, and there would be no place to live, so he agreed. Said: "Then I would like to ask Uncle Rong to help you find out where is suitable for building a house. If you don't choose a location, just make it bigger."

Uncle Rong nodded immediately, "I'll take a look right now." It happened that the address of the new school was also searched together.

Uncle Rong called his eldest son and left with his hands behind his back.
