starling is not a bird

The eldest brother looked at the layers of green gauze tents on the top of his village, and his heart was inexplicably excited. The tall and straight branches bear a lot of fruits. In more than a month, the first batch of fanmai will be harvested!He wished that the scorching sun above his head would be hotter, so that this thing would grow better!

There are two rounds a year, with a yield of hundreds of catties per mu. Fine milling can yield five or six hundred catties of rations. Wheat straw can be used as fertilizer or dried as firewood for heating. It can be ground and fed to livestock. Listen, big brother. When the steward in the farm told himself the benefits of the wheat with his fingers, his heart was full of ecstasy!

If Huang Ama handed over this thing to the people in charge of farming to promote it, in less than a year, the debts in various places can be paid off, and the rations of the common people will also be solved. It is really a good thing!

Regardless of the muddy ground after the light rain, the eldest brother simply threw off the followers and went down to the field by himself, touching the plump little mallet, hey hey!

Peel off the green corn coat of the wheat, tear off the strands of golden whiskers, and the plump fruits are arranged neatly, like a team of thousands of horses and horses. The elder brother took a bite, and the green and astringent smell permeated the air. mouth, but the heart is sweeter than honey.

When the elder brother came up again, Mingzhu and the others got impatient, and the elder brother didn't think it was disobedient, so he smiled and gave them some cornmeal in his hand. Big brother is also satisfied.

Riding a horse and walking side by side with Mingzhu towards the Forbidden City, along the way, Yingying and swallows were singing, and it was a beautiful scene. Mingzhu hesitated a few times, and finally said, "Fratta is gone!"

The smile on Big Brother’s face froze, he looked back at those followers, waved the whip in his hand to tell them not to follow too closely, looked at the city gate in front of him, and said in a low voice: “Have you left anything? "Mingzhu took out the leather roll from her arms, and handed it to the elder brother with her sleeves on: "I got a roster, and he found out that he was involved, so don't act rashly now."

The elder brother accepted it without looking at him: "I want you to remind me! It's troublesome!" The two walked quietly for a while, and Mingzhu finally couldn't help it: "Master, where do you want to put the account book?" Elder brother gritted his teeth and thought for a moment: "Send the accountant over there to Beijing, and I'll arrange it, and put it in Jiudi's shop. Could it be that our crown prince dared to kill his brother's buddy?" ?”

Mingzhu smiled: "Master has a good idea, but is Ninth Master reliable?" The elder brother squinted at him: "Your Ninth Master is unreliable, so can my Eighth Brother be unreliable? They are all master's siblings. If you don't believe them, which one do you trust?"

Mingzhu knew that eldest elder brother was the most self-willed, arrogant and conceited person, but he just liked to be vain, so she had to persuade him: "My lady has news that the crown prince was killed by the noble lord in the palace. My lady guesses it's not appropriate. The concubine is the concubine and concubine Wen Xi, and if you have an elder brother, you will have wishful thinking, sir, you should be more defensive 1"

The elder brother bowed his head and remained silent for a while, before finally saying: "I understand what you mean, they are all blood of the real dragon, who doesn't care about that position? It would be strange if they don't care about it, and I am not afraid of it! Those women's insidious methods can only harm you." Those unsuspecting people, this position should belong to the Lord, these little dogs can't hurt the Lord."

After thinking for a while, he said, "It's a pity that the shop belongs to the ninth brother. If it belongs to the eighth brother, don't worry!"

Mingzhu has been with eldest elder brother for a long time, so she naturally knows who he is close to, so she giggled: "Eighth Master is sincerely close to Grandpa, and Madam is always talking about it!"

The elder brother thought of his younger brother, and his heart warmed up: "That's right, the bald-headed monk who learned the scriptures has a few burdens, and the master's subordinates will naturally have capable people who protect the sky! Uncle Tang, the master knows it well, don't worry!" As they spoke, they patted Mingzhu on the back, the two laughed together, and galloped towards the city gate with their horses on their hands.

The eldest brother was thinking about his younger brothers while eating, not to mention the second and third brothers, they were all enemies, the fourth brother was cold, the fifth brother was straight, and the seventh brother was sick.The nine and ten younger brothers are still young, and they are controlled by their mothers and concubines.Only the eighth younger brother, who was raised by the same mother as him, usually takes care of himself in everything, and does things beautifully without taking credit for him, so he wins his heart. If this matter is in his hands, he will definitely not have any worries.

Thinking of this, the elder brother felt that he had treated his younger brother poorly, and the ninth brother had already made a fortune, so why is the eighth brother still living a normal life?Everywhere in the palace is red-topped and white, the eighth younger brother is not of high birth, and he has no errands and no branch office at the moment, if the money is tighter, I'm afraid some will suffer from embarrassment!

After thinking about it, I felt ashamed that I was not considerate enough, my brother was considerate of me everywhere, but I didn't take good care of my brother, I felt really guilty after thinking about it.He also called the Yi Fujin Yiergen Jueluo family to discuss, and planned to divide the shop under his name among his younger brothers.

The husband and wife discussed under the lamp for a long time, and finally drew a few silk and satin shops for him. The elder brother wanted to buy Zhuangzi for him, but was stopped by Fujin Yiergenjueluo: "It's not that we are stingy, lord, When the mansion is divided, Huang Ama will divide the population of his Zhuangzi. Why do you have to do all Huang Ama's work? Besides, sending Zhuangzi is too eye-catching. It's not as good as when Zhuangzi takes the rent at the end of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lord, you secretly help make up for it It's the same with my younger brother, why do people say that you have a bad reputation for wooing your younger brother, Prince Shi En!"

The elder brother looked at his wife, who looked like a flower under the lamp, smiled and touched her shoulder and said: "It's the master who has stepped in, madam, you are worried, just listen to madam!"

Ergen felt that Luoshi's face became hot, and he slapped the elder brother's hand away and said, "Master, I didn't blame you. What the eighth brother lacks most now is not the Yinzi Zhuangzi shop!"

Eldest elder brother saw his wife looking at him shyly and smilingly, and couldn't turn the corner for a moment: "What can he miss? Could it be that someone deducted his share?"

Ergenjue Luo said coquettishly, "Master, you didn't see it? The eighth brother is lying there, not even the one who brings tea and water is considerate?"

The elder brother was taken aback for a moment, and said with a smile: "He is still young, how could he think of this?"

Ergenjue Luoshi bit his pale red lips and said, "Master, you are really careless. The eighth younger brother is thirteen years old at the beginning of the new year. It is time to add someone to the house. Is it possible to wait for him to marry a few people before he gets married?" A welcome to Fujin?"

Big Brother thought about it.As if I also added a few princesses to the room at this age, I didn't expect my younger brother to be at this age, so I couldn't help but feel a little emotional, looking at his wife Ergenjue Luoshi: "You are right, it happens to be the year of the election. In a few days, the show girls will come to Beijing, you follow the ladies to have a look, and if you have good ones, keep an eye out!"

After thinking about it, he said: "You have a good temper, don't be wronged brother, you have to look at each other, and let me know if you spot it!"

Ergen Jue Luo gave the elder brother a sideways look: "Why are you telling me? Didn't I add someone to you? Naturally, I told the eighth brother to let him see for himself. If he is interested, he can go to the empress to ask for grace." !"

The elder brother smiled and hugged Ergenjue Luoshi in his arms: "You know that the master doesn't want to add people? I'm tired of looking at the one in front of me, so I want to change it!"

Ergenjue Luoshi pushed him away, gritted his teeth and said, "I really feel sorry for your brother, so you just try to anger me! You want to add someone? Go ahead and enter the door, and I will take my daughter to be my sister-in-law!" I'm not a good wife anymore!"

The elder brother laughed and held her in his arms for a kiss: "How can I be willing, you don't know, you are the one who loves me the most! Those are vulgar makeup, I don't like them! You don't want to give me anything! If you add a daughter, I will never despise you!"

The two kissed each other for a while, then turned off the lights and made no sound.

The fourth elder brother likes to take a walk to the bustling street in the west of the city recently. Whenever the errands are done, he will take a detour there, walk around the shops, and see if there is anything new for the younger brother who is convalescing in bed.

From small waterwheels to rabbit fur hats, from Huizhou inkstones to Jiangnan fruits, they have changed all kinds of shopping to make my brother happy. I am afraid that his life will be difficult, but I don’t know that my brother is most afraid of receiving gifts every day, so I want to come up with a bunch of them. It is really embarrassing for words to come and go.

On this day, Si Fujin came back from the palace to greet An, and laughed happily for a long time, and finally couldn't help telling his husband at night: "Master, it's good to accompany the ladies to see beautiful women these few days. Let's also ask the empress for one, it will be cheaper for the eighth brother if it is late!"

The fourth elder brother was already drowsy with the book, but he suddenly woke up after hearing this: "What's the matter with the eighth brother?"

Si Fujin looked at him strangely and said: "Da Fujin went to ask Niangniang Tong to pick a few good ones to put in the eighth younger brother's room. Firstly, it was to take care of his injuries, and secondly, the eighth younger brother has reached the age, so we can't hang around all the time." Let's go!"

The fourth elder brother frowned and said: "Brother is also true, Xiao Ba is so impatient because of how old he is? It's not like he didn't see it last time, Xiao Ba is so thin that only his bones are left, and there are people added to the room. How can he bear the woman?" Is this to take care of him? I am afraid that the more you take care of him, the more sick you will be!"

Said, put down the book in his hand, got up and put on his coat to go out, Si Fujin hurriedly stopped him: "When is this, sir, where are you going?"

The fourth elder brother didn't make a sound, just buttoned up his buttons and was about to leave. Si Fujin knew that her husband was a bit left-handed, and she was afraid that he would offend others, so she gently persuaded him: "It's just an idea in the harem, I don't know Be sure, who are you going to persuade?"

The fourth elder brother is already dressed, and he doesn't look at Si Fujin: "Of course I want to go and see my silly brother, don't get fooled and kill yourself!"

When Sifujin saw that he was not looking for the elder brother, he let go of half of his heart, and persuaded softly: "The eighth brother may not know yet, don't scare the younger brother by shouting angrily, tell him slowly, if he wants to If you like it, don't force him, children need face! Besides, it's not so fast, women and girls understand it, and they can't miss his body!"

It is said that the eighth elder brother Yinhu was sitting on a chair in the yard watching Xueyi spread its wings to the moon, and asked a white parrot from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to accompany him, but unfortunately Xueyi was very arrogant and often bullied the newcomer Yinhu named the poor parrot "Jinu".Although Jinu doesn't get Xueyi's admiration, he has a docile temperament, he only stands on the shelf every day, and loves to be close to others.

Yinhu put Jinu on his lap and stood there, teasing it with some millet. When he was having fun, he saw his fourth brother rushing in from the outside. It's too late, why did he rush over again?

Handing the slave on his lap to the servant, Yinhu stood up to greet his fourth elder brother. Seeing his younger brother standing up, the fourth elder brother hurried over to hold him down: "You just need to rest, and I didn't come here to receive your gift." !"

Yinhu looked at him with a smile and said, "Even though elder brother comes here often, the etiquette must not be dismissed, so as not to be picked on, and I will keep it in my heart to embarrass my younger brother in the future."

The fourth elder brother raised his eyebrows: "Who dares to embarrass you with this? Tell the fourth brother, the fourth brother will stand up for you!"

Yinhu thought, isn't it because you like to embarrass me with this the most?Is there anyone else who cares so much?But with a happy expression on his face, he asked: "Fourth brother, what's the big deal here?"
