Chapter 40 The Day of Maturity
"Father, mother."
"Why are you back? You can't stay in that crappy place anymore?" The middle-aged man with the book gave him a sideways glance, and his words were merciless.
"What are you talking about, Jinhan finally came back." The middle-aged lady quickly got up, pulled Zhuang Jinhan up and down, "I lost weight, I really lost a lot, son, if you feel unhappy I'll come back, my mother will support you, huh?"
"Why raise him? He's the county magistrate, a parent official, and he doesn't go to eat, drink and have fun. It's you, a loving mother who loses his son!" Father Zhuang said angrily.
"What do you mean? Do you think I'm not good? Why am I a loser? If I were really a loser, would I be able to raise such a good son? Now my son is going to be a magistrate in such a far away place, and my mother's heartache is not good. Is it?" Zhuang's mother was also very angry, and went back directly.
Seeing that the two men were about to quarrel after a disagreement, Zhuang Jinhan quickly said, "Father and mother, I am not coming back this time to visit relatives, but to enter the palace to meet the emperor."
"I want to see the emperor, then go and change quickly, so that the emperor won't get angry." Mother Zhuang said hastily.
"I'm going to wash up." Zhuang Jinhan walked towards his bedroom, and after walking for a while, he heard arguing behind him, and he didn't stop. This kind of thing has long been a routine for him, and it's nothing unusual .
After washing up, Zhuang Jinhan entered the palace, and soon met the current emperor.
"I haven't seen you for so long, it seems to be a lot darker." The emperor joked.
The two are about the same age, and they were playmates who grew up together, so the relationship has always been very good. Even if the emperor has become the emperor, he has always worked hard to maintain the relationship between the two.
"It's been a long time since I saw you, and the emperor is a little more majestic." Zhuang Jinhan smiled and arched his hands.
"There's nothing I can do about it. I'm young. If I'm not serious, I won't be able to suppress those people. By the way, this time you came back and said that you have a surprise to tell me. I don't know what it is?" The emperor asked impatiently. Well, before Zhuang Jinhan said he was pleasantly surprised, he brought him a plan. Now that the river course is almost completed, it is a great joy for the whole country.
"This surprise is really too big, so I went back to Beijing on purpose, just to ask the emperor, do you want to go in person?" Zhuang Jinhan said seriously.
"Go in person?" The emperor asked back, and then laughed out loud, "You are back, it seems that I have no choice but to go, the surprise you brought back, I naturally have to go and see in person."
Zhuang Jinhan also smiled: "I can assure you that this surprise will definitely make the emperor happy."
"As long as I don't ask you to pay for it after a surprise, it must be a great joy." The emperor joked with a smile.
Zhuang Jinhan didn't say any more, but still smiled.
The emperor wanted to go on tour in a low-clothes, but it was secret news, but Zhuang Jinhan's parents knew about it in advance.
"Nonsense, it's just nonsense, Zhuang Jinhan, what on earth are you thinking, to encourage the emperor to go on tour in disguise, are you going to kill yourself?" Father Zhuang said angrily, aiming at his son Zhuang Jinhan.
Zhuang Jinhan raised his hand and faced his father with clasped fists: "Father, this matter is a major event that benefits the country and the people. It will be a great blessing for our court that the emperor can come in person."
"Fortunately, I haven't talked to you about what happened last time. The river course is also beneficial to the country and the people, but after that, half of the taxes of all participating villages will be reduced. Do you know what this means? If the enemy country invades at this time, we will What should I use to raise soldiers, and what should I use to fight against the enemy country?" Zhuang's father directly dug up the old story, and it was still Zhuang Jinhan who scolded him.
"My son knows that a big country can affect the whole body, so at first my idea was to promote it in the county, but father, once the river channel is officially put into operation, the flood disaster will be greatly reduced. Isn't this a great thing? ?Even those who are soldiers, they want their families to live a good life, I think they don't want their families to disappear in the flood when they are soldiers." Zhuang Jinhan said seriously.
It was the emperor's idea to expand the excavation of the river channel from one county to the south of the Yellow River, and Zhuang Jinhan, as a subject, could not push this matter to the emperor even though he grew up with the emperor.
And he believes that as long as he can survive this difficult time, this river course will definitely bring greater benefits to the country.
Father Zhuang looked at him with a frown. In fact, he also knew the function of the river, but although the half of the tax made the common people happy, it was not a good thing for the country that lost half of the tax.
This is also the reason why corvee has existed since ancient times.
"Father, you can go together this time too." Zhuang Jinhan said, he was also worried about taxes, but ever since he saw the large green area, he knew that his worries had been completely resolved, and all this he hoped that the emperor And Zhuang father can witness together.
Father Zhuang looked at him: "What exactly are you talking about? You actually talked about moving the emperor to go on tour in micro-clothes?"
"I'll know when my father is gone." Zhuang Jinhan pretended, "Anyway, I will never let my father down."
The next day, a group of people quietly left the capital, and the carriage drove straight to a small county town.
A few days later, a group of people came to the county seat.
"Let's go by bullock cart, today's time is just right," Zhuang Jinhan said.
"Take an ox cart? Why take an ox cart instead of a horse cart?" Someone asked.
"The carriage is too ostentatious. Since we are visiting in private this time, naturally we can't be too ostentatious. I have a friend whose brother runs back and forth between the county town and the village every few days. Let's go to Lujia Village in his ox cart." Zhuang Jinhan Of course it is Lu Youdi.
After the Spring Festival, the business of oxcart pulling people is not so good, so Lu Youdi no longer pulls back and forth every day, but pulls every few days.
"Forget it, let's just use the bullock cart." Someone waved his hand, as if he didn't care.
Instead, it was a middle-aged couple on the other side, who was about to stare Zhuang Jinhan out of the hole. After all, riding a bullock cart with someone's noble body is really... not very good.
Zhuang Jinhan pretended not to notice. He went to the capital quietly to bring people this time. Apart from asking Lu Siyu not to dig until he came back, he had no other instructions. And the horse from the capital is a good horse.
Now he has no doubts about Lu Siyu's knowledge, and he can definitely recognize the quality of the horse. Instead of changing to other carriages and explaining so much, it's better to just ride an ox cart in one step.
In fact, Zhuang Jinhan thought too much about this point. Lu Siyu grew up so big, and he had never seen a horse in his daily life in his previous life. good or bad?
"Mom, if you're not used to it, just stay in the county town."
"What are you not used to? Both of you father and son can do it. Why can't I? I must go!" Zhuang's mother directly made a decision.
Zhuang Jinhan had no choice but to nod.
The driver was still Lu Youdi, and when he saw Zhuang Jinhan, he immediately shouted: "Master Zhuang, you are here, Xiao Yu has been thinking of you."
"He really misses me?" Zhuang Jinhan's eyes lit up, feeling that his hard work has finally paid off. Could it be that he misses me so much after not seeing him for a few days?
"Where, Xiaoyu said that Master Zhuang ordered us not to dig sweet potatoes until you come back. Aren't you in a hurry? My father and second uncle are always thinking about the things in that field." Although he knew that Zhuang Jinhan's status was special, Since the relationship was pretty good before, Lu Youdi spoke directly.
But his words directly exposed Zhuang Jinhan's self-aggrandizement.
Can't the child think about himself a little more, dare to feel that he is not as important as the things in the field!
Zhuang Jinhan thought angrily.
"Who is Xiaoyu?" Mother Zhuang asked curiously, she had never seen her son show such an expression.
"Xiao Yu is my younger brother, he is so smart," Lu Youdi said immediately, and then realized that he was not facing those people in the village, so he quickly restrained his previous casualness, "Who is this?"
"This is my parents, and my friends. They want to visit the sweet potato fields with me." Zhuang Jinhan said.
"It turned out to be Mrs. Zhuang, Mrs. Zhuang. She must be a knowledgeable person, but she must have never seen a sweet potato field. This sweet potato is a rare thing. Recently, many people in the village are waiting for us to dig sweet potatoes. Today is nothing. Guest, Master Zhuang, are we going back now?" Lu Youdi said.
"it is good."
The bullock cart moved slowly, and the four of them sat on the small stool behind the bullock cart. Perhaps because they often carried passengers, they were still clean and there were no dirty things.
This is also the reason why Zhuang Jinhan dared to let a few people ride with him in an ox cart. If it was dirty, Zhuang's father would probably yell at him immediately. Of course, it was not for himself, but for someone who could not reveal his identity.
Dare to let the emperor sit in a dirty place, isn't that courting death?
On the way to Lujiacun, Zhuang Jinhan kept talking to Lu Youdi.
"The growth of the sweet potato field, Xiaoyu said it will grow, but the weather will be hot in a while, and it is not easy to cultivate the second season, so we must dig out those in the field as soon as possible, while the weather is still cool, If you plant the second season, there will be another bumper harvest in a few months."
"Then do you also dig the ones in your field?" Zhuang Jinhan knew that the large area of eight acres belonged to the uncle and the second uncle's family.
"Dig," Lu You nodded, "My parents, uncles and aunts all believe in Xiaoyu, and I believe in him too. Xiaoyu can dig whenever she wants. The estimated time is only a few days, and it just so happens that you come back, Master Zhuang. Yes, we can dig when we go back later.”
"It should be a spectacular sight." Zhuang Jinhan could already imagine the situation later.
"Of course, Xiaoyu said that there are at least five thousand catties of sweet potatoes in that one mu of land, and if you're lucky, it can reach six thousand catties." Lu Youdi said proudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Father Zhuang said, "What is five thousand catties, six thousand catties?"
"Sweet potato," Lu Youdi said casually, "Oh, I almost forgot, Xiaoyu said that it seems that many places do not have this kind of thing, it is a kind of thing that is similar to peanuts, and the fruit grows in the ground, but each one is about the same size. They are all as big as a fist and can fill your stomach."
Lu Youdi followed exactly what Lu Siyu said, and suppressed it a little, so it didn't seem so exaggerated.
But even so, in the ears of the three people behind, they all felt a little unbelievable.
Zhuang Jinhan looked at the eyes of Zhuang's father and someone, and chuckled lightly: "Is it true? You will find out when you go. Now you know why I didn't tell you before? It's not because I'm afraid that you are too anxious and can't wait to fly come over."
Zhuang Jinhan was joking.
However, with the characters of Father Zhuang and the Emperor, this is not a joke. If they really know the news in the capital, they will definitely hurry up and arrive at the fastest speed even if they don't sleep or rest.
"Why are you back? You can't stay in that crappy place anymore?" The middle-aged man with the book gave him a sideways glance, and his words were merciless.
"What are you talking about, Jinhan finally came back." The middle-aged lady quickly got up, pulled Zhuang Jinhan up and down, "I lost weight, I really lost a lot, son, if you feel unhappy I'll come back, my mother will support you, huh?"
