Poisonous Peasant 'Concubine'

Ling Chenghua, Ling Jingwei, aunt and nephew blatantly had sex in the wilderness, and even insulted many men and women after their family members separated them. The ancestral hall saw that they hadn't taken the initiative to plead guilty at noon the next day. In the afternoon, the old patriarch resolutely took people from the Ling clan to the Xiucai's house to pick them up. The whole village except Ling Jingxuan, who was working in full swing, everyone let go Farm work, follow to the scholar's house to watch the excitement.

When hearing this, Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui looked at each other and smiled, as if they had nothing to do with him. The two brothers Ling Jinghan and Ling Jingpeng had similar reactions. One was sitting under the eaves of the backyard and reading books leisurely, while the other continued to follow The workers were working together, but Ling Chenglong was taken aback for a moment, but when he thought of the warning from his sons, he just sighed deeply, not daring to let himself meddle in the other side's business.

"Shui Sheng, you don't have to help your father anymore. I heard that you can read a few words. Let Jing Han teach you more when you have nothing to do. In the future, you can be his school boy."

Just after delivering the carefully prepared big bone soup and meat buns to the workers, the people in charge of repairing roads and courtyard walls came. Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui arranged for them respectively. When they came back, they saw that Song Shuisheng wanted to go outside with Song Gengniu to help , Ling Jingxuan stopped him casually. When he heard that he was going to be a book boy for the second master, he could learn two more words. It's very short, but they've also heard about Ling Jinghan, and they know that he's talented. It must have a bright future, at least it will not be too hard, this is a great thing.

"Why are you staring blankly? Hurry up and thank Master Xuan."

Song Gengniu was the first to come back to his senses and pushed his son angrily. Now the youngest son has become the bookboy of the two young masters and stays with Mr. Chu to study with them. The eldest son is going to be the bookboy of the second master again. The days are moving forward wow!

"Yes, thank you, Master Xuan."

Song Shuisheng, who finally came to his senses, hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Ling Jingxuan. No matter where he was, being able to read and write was a great blessing to the poor.

"Jinghan, he will be your man from now on. You haven't recovered your body, let him do what you need to do, and pay attention to rest when it's time to rest. The ancients said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. , It’s useless to just bury your head in reading dead books, don’t put too much pressure on yourself, you’re only fourteen this year, it doesn’t matter even if you fail the child’s exam, at worst, we’ll take the exam again next year, don’t wear yourself out.”

Raising his hand to signal him to get up, Ling Jingxuan turned his head and said to Ling Jinghan who was holding a book in his hand and was about to go to the backyard. He knew that his younger brothers were working hard, and at the same time he was relieved that he really loved them. ?At this rate, it won't be long before he has sciatica or a herniated disc or something.

"Well, brother, I will pay attention. You go to the kitchen and get a pot of tea and send it to the backyard."

Ling Jinghan nodded, and left after giving orders to Song Shuisheng. Now that the whole family is busy, how could he really put down his books?He is weak and has no other skills except reading.

"Don't worry, he is not a child anymore, he knows what to do, but you, is it okay if you don't take a nap?"

Seeing that he kept staring at Ling Jinghan's back and frowning, Yan Shengrui said worriedly that no matter how busy he was in the past, even if he just took a short nap, he would take a rest after noon. Today, the engineering team came just after dinner, and they arranged the work separately. It was almost an hour before the person came back, and he was really afraid that he would tire him out.

"It's okay, it's okay to have an occasional day."

Looking away and giving him a comforting smile, Ling Jingxuan turned to Song Gengniu and the others and said, "Old Song, you can help my father and the others for a while, just remember not to miss the time to pick up the children, Mrs. Song, the kitchen I will leave it to you to clean the house and the house. We have to eat three meals a day on time, and my mother’s place, don’t forget her soup, water Ling, milking the cows in the morning and making medicine for Shengrui Jinghan three times a day The job is yours, you are also a 13-year-old girl, don't always think about helping your mother and others, our family rules are not so strict, just stay with my mother when you are done, I heard Your embroidery skills are good, and you can help us make some purses when you have nothing to do."

Since they have followed him, he will not treat them badly. Of course, the premise is that they will never betray him.

"Yes, thank you, Master Xuan."

The family of three bent down to him happily, Song Yang raised his head to look at him, and said hesitantly: "Master Xuan, I don't think there are many clothes for the family to change and wash. You bought a lot of cloth yesterday. When I'm done, I'll make some clothes for everyone, shall I?"

People complement each other, if he treats them well, they will naturally repay them faithfully, not to mention, he was originally their family's great benefactor.

"Well, you can handle these small things yourself. Also, don't forget to let the two puppies tied up in the backyard out in the afternoon to get some air. They are also suffocated when Xiao Baozi is away."

Ling Jingxuan nodded, and before he left, he suddenly thought of Dahei Xiaohei again. They all thought they were dogs, and he didn't bother to explain, so he just thought they were dogs, although it seemed a bit insulting to their wolves.

"Hey, don't worry, master Xuan, I will take good care of them and keep them so that the little master won't worry."

Song Yangshi is also a refreshing person, and he agreed with a smile on his face while patting his chest. Ling Jingxuan and Yan Shengrui nodded, and the two went to the backyard together. It is imminent to repair the house, and making money can't be left behind. Now that there are more people in the family, what to do They also ate a lot, and there was not enough room in the kitchen for them to make jam, so they asked Zhao Han and his wife to help, and planned to build a simple work shed in the backyard and get a few earthen stoves in the backyard when they were free in the afternoon.

"Woooo..."

"Hehe... I think they will hate you for the rest of their lives."

As soon as the two of them turned into the backyard, the two wolf cubs tied there grinned at him and whimpered non-stop. Yan Shengrui couldn't help but gloated and smiled. Ling Jingxuan gave him an angry look. He thought it was all his fault. ?Had he not led the she-wolf to them, would he have killed the she-wolf?

"Jingxuan, you guys are here, let's see if this works?"

Han Fei, who was working, saw them, and raised his hand to greet them with sweat on his face. In just an hour, they had already set up a general framework, and the area of ​​the shed that occupied half of the backyard was still very large. On the other hand, especially separated from the middle by a bamboo frame, there is nothing on one side, and two earthen stoves lined up can already be seen on the other side.

"Well, that's exactly what I want, Big Brother Zhao, Big Brother Han, thank you for your hard work."

Ling Jingxuan walked over to have a look, nodded with satisfaction with a smile on his face, the empty side is used to wash wild fruits, and it will be enough to put a few large wooden basins on the other side, as for the other side, he planned four earthen stoves, according to Made of the largest iron pot, it will be convenient to cook jam in the future. Although it is a little crude, it can only be used before the house is repaired.

"Why don't you talk about hard work? Why don't you say you are hard when you help us? Look, there are only two earthen stoves left. When Lao Song picks up the children later, I will buy the oilcloth and put it on the shelf. , the shed is completely finished.”

His politeness undoubtedly met with complaints from Han Fei again. Ling Jingxuan shook his head helplessly. He was unwilling to be polite to others, and he was the only one who would dislike him.

"By the way, Brother Zhao, I heard that you often help the iron shop in the town. I wonder if the iron shop accepts orders from customers to make things?"

It's too much to say, Ling Jingxuan simply rolled up his sleeves with Yan Shengrui and joined them, Ling Jingxuan asked casually while he was busy, he was always thinking about his scalpel, not only for prevention, but more importantly, the scalpel was also his There is no satisfactory weapon, so I always feel a little uneasy.

"What are you trying to do? Just tell Brother Long what you want to do. It's not that I praise my man. Brother Long's blacksmithing skills are much better than those in the iron shop in the town. Isn't that because we don't have the money to open a shop?" Otherwise, the iron shop in the town would have closed long ago."

Before Zhao Dalong could speak, Han Fei took the topic half-jokingly, and the four of them laughed one after another. Ling Jingxuan suddenly asked again: "In that case, brother Zhao, can the blacksmithing technology of my Qing Dynasty produce fine steel?" ?”

Stainless steel is further refined from fine steel. For a scalpel, it must be made of stainless steel.

"Fine steel? Isn't that something unique to the West Country? I heard that some irons are added when blacksmithing, and the resulting objects are sharper and tougher than ordinary ironware. When I went to the town to deliver goods, I heard from Mr. Shu that today's war The only time the invincible Prince Cheng was defeated was when he lost to the fine steel knife of the West Kingdom. Of course, Prince Cheng is the God of War in our Qing Dynasty. It has been several years before they dared to easily start a war again."

No matter how humble or ordinary and silent a man is, when it comes to war, his blood will inevitably be surging, and Zhao Dalong is no exception. However, no one except Ling Jingxuan noticed that when Yan Shengrui heard the words of Prince Cheng, he unconsciously He stopped the movements of his hands, and sharp and innumerable doubts appeared in his bright and deep tiger eyes. Obviously, his reaction to Prince Sheng was very great.

"Really? It turns out that our Prince Sheng was also defeated. Since Prince Sheng is so strong, why are there still constant wars on our border all these years?"

Ling Jingxuan cast a meaningful glance at Yan Shengrui, who was stunned, and asked more about Prince Sheng on his behalf. If possible, he also hoped that he would remember earlier that human emotions cannot be controlled by reason, and he really doesn't want to. I hope that they will kill each other because of emotional disputes in the future. The sooner he thinks about it, the relationship between them will be concluded sooner.

"It's not because of the wolfish ambitions of the Eastern Kingdom. They have always wanted to annex the Western Kingdom and our Qing Dynasty. Every year they provoke the nomads in the north and harass the borders of our country in the beginning of spring. They do everything from burning, killing and looting, so every year Prince Sheng personally leads troops to the border. However, the nomads in the north live without a fixed place, and they run away when they are done robbing. The frozen territory and the endless grassland have undoubtedly become their natural barriers. Every time Prince Sheng leads troops to go deep, it will be useless. At most, he will capture a few small bosses. It is said that the people at the border have a hard time."

It was rare for him to talk about a topic he was interested in, so Zhao Dalong opened up his chatter box, and he continued to tell the things he heard from the storyteller. Although there must be a lot of water in it, but the general direction should not be wrong. You can tell by the look on Yan Shengrui's face more and more. Ling Jingxuan sighed helplessly in his heart. Even if he lost his memory, this man's heart is still on the battlefield. If they really get married in the future, he wants to live a stable life. I'm afraid I have to help him deal with the safety of the border first, otherwise he might go to the battlefield one day. He doesn't want to have a man and stay alone in an empty room.
