Across the Far Mountain Tea Farmers

There is one group of people going down the mountain, and three groups going up the mountain.

At that time Huayong took people down the mountain to buy medicine, Wen Lun knew that buying medicine was just a cover.

Sure enough, when Huayong went up the mountain, he took a strong man with him, carrying some herbs symbolically on his back.

The second group of people went to Fucheng "by the way" to bring something to Yao Qing.When they came back, they also sent a letter to Wen Lun.

At first, Wen Lun thought it was something common.Children, do you miss your father when you are alone outside... Cough, do you miss your husband?As a result, the contents of the letter made Wen Lun almost fly down the mountain.

Don't mention that Wen Lun can't fly, even if he can fly, Xiong Da won't let him go down.

"Why are you going down the mountain?"

Wen Lun grabbed the letter paper and pointed to the words on it: "Ah Qing is about to take an exam!" To Wen Lun, the imperial examination was just a noun, and he didn't know much about it.Even the original body doesn't know much about this aspect.

As a result, now Yao Qing wrote a letter saying that he was going to be a child student!

Exams are definitely the most dreadful thing for students, not one of them!In the state of Qi, the children's examination is divided into several sections in February and March every year, and is held by each prefecture.How old is Yao Qing? He just passed the high school entrance examination!As a parent accompanying the exam, how could he not be by his side?

Xiong Da didn't understand Wen Lun's taking it for granted, and frowned: "Ah Qing wants to take the exam, let him take the exam. It's a child's exam, and the master of the academy should have enough experience."

There are quite a few well-known students studying in the academy, not to mention children, even scholars.Although Wen Lun is Yao Qing's husband, his experience in examinations is no better than that of the academy's husband.

Wen Lun wiped off his sweat and suddenly calmed down: "Yes, Ah Qing can do it."

He hadn't passed the Tongsheng Exam, but he had studied like Yuan himself.The so-called reading and learning, even in Qi country, went step by step like Wen Lun from kindergarten to elementary school, middle school and university.Elementary school, child student, scholar, juren, etc., are all a kind of ladder.Even if you don't get the honor in the exam, you will continue to read it little by little, instead of chasing it.

Wen Lun had the memory of a top student at least, and knew Yao Qing's level very well: "Ah Qing is still a bit reluctant to take the talent test, but there is absolutely no problem in the child test."

"So what are you worried about?" Xiong Da actually didn't object to his daughter-in-law going to accompany the exam. If he could walk away, the weather is not so bad now, so he would like to go along to see it.

Xiong Da didn't quite understand Yao Qing's level, but well, the children are his own good. Thinking about those old men with white beards who are still taking the entrance exams, how old is Yao Qing, it's amazing!Well, the most remarkable thing is his wife!

Wen Lun was still a little confused: "Why does this kid think that he will take the entrance examination for children this year?" Before they left, there was obviously no sign of it.

Xiong Da couldn't help pulling his daughter-in-law, who had turned around, into his arms and fixed it: "Don't think so much. When spring comes, we will find out when we go down the mountain and ask." But Yao Qing should have finished the exam by then.

Wen Lun thought about it, and it was the only way to go.He quickly cheered up: "Ah Qing is so young, so he works so hard, and I can't be lazy as a husband." Life was too depressing before, and he always felt that things were rushing one by one. Now that the new house is built, he It always feels like procrastination is popping up again.The plan for the tea house was planned early in the morning, but now there is not even a plan.

Xiong Da has nothing to do for the time being, and now he has time to watch his wife write a plan.

"For a tea house, the place should not be too small, and it must be close to the tea garden..." First of all, the site selection, the tea house must have a house, no matter how simple it is, the house must be built first.

"It doesn't have to be close, but you must be able to see the tea garden." Xiong Da took out his own land deed, and the two sat together to study for a long time, but found no particularly suitable place.

"Where is the top of the mountain? Isn't there a flatter mountain?" The idea of ​​being able to overlook the tea garden from a distance sounds good, so let's occupy a commanding height.

Xiong Da is very familiar with the nearby mountains and forests: "So, there are a few short ones, which are not considered hilltops. But if this is the case, do you need to buy land?"

Wen Lun didn't care about buying land at all: "A hilltop in Dacha Village is not worth half a yard in Fucheng."

Xiong Da couldn't help but leaned over and took a bite.It's so comfortable for the daughter-in-law to spend money with peace of mind.Back then, the daughter-in-law would still think about making money to support the family, but now she has consciously let him support her.

Wen Lun pushed him away: "Speak well, let's discuss things!"

Xiong grinned and rubbed his lips: "Yes."

Wen Lun couldn't understand why Xiong Da was in such a good mood, he glanced at him suspiciously, and suddenly thought: "I heard tigers roaring that day, and there are tigers in the mountains?" Normally, the vicinity of Dacha Village should not be the range of tigers. That's right, he hasn't heard a sound since he came here.The roar of the tiger that day sounded very close.

When mentioning this, Xiong Da also became serious: "There have always been. The tiger didn't come down that day." Fortunately, the tiger didn't come down that day, otherwise the losses in the village would have been even worse.

This matter is not that simple, but at this moment, he has no extra way to think about it.Although there are dozens of retired military men at hand, they are all wounded. Most of them are suffering from old illnesses in the winter.He clearly knows that there is something tricky in it, but now he can only guard against it.He didn't even dare to send anyone to search.

Wen Lun pushed aside the plan for the tea house and began to draw the design of the village: "Can we surround the village? It doesn't feel safe." A fence can also provide a buffer.

Xiong Da sighed and vetoed: "Where did the village get so much money?"

No money, that's reality.Don't look at Dacha Village as if life is pretty good now, but at best it's enough to eat and clothe, and at most it's just enough to buy some daily necessities.

The Xiong family can afford the money, but the name is not justified.Building bridges and paving roads is a good deed, but what do you want to do with building a village?Occupy the top of the mountain and be the king?

Therefore, the Xiong family cannot pay the money.

Wen Lun understood after thinking about it, and sighed.

But they didn't expect that the village chief's courage was stronger than they imagined.This time, all the villagers were stimulated.The villagers didn't say anything, and seemed to be living as usual, but who didn't hide in the bed and shake twice?If Xiong Da came later, maybe they would have gone to see Hades.They had never seen so many beasts in their life.

The wall must be built!When you don’t need it, just build it yourself during the slack time!

The discussion in the old temple was in full swing, and the scholars also got involved, turning the earthen wall into a city in an instant.

The Xiong family also welcomed the third group of people who went up the mountain.

"I've seen you sir, I've seen you sir." It was almost midnight when Master Hao and Junshi Jia arrived at Xiong's house, so they didn't disturb the villagers.

Wen Lun didn't quite understand why the two looked at him so earnestly. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he got up and said, "You go to the study to talk. I'll go and see if the kitchen is all right."

When the two saw Wen Lun gone out, their expressions returned to normal, and they were taken to the study by Xiong Da.Junshi Jia sized him up and sighed, "Mr. looks much better now."

Xiong Da nodded, but he was not prepared to bring the topic to his wife.

During the exchanging of pleasantries just now, Li Er had already tidied up the study, and the heat from the two pots of charcoal quickly warmed up the room.The three of them entered the door, and Li Er brought in two large bowls of ginger syrup on his back: "The young master said to let the two adults get rid of the cold."

The bowl of ginger syrup was very hot.The two soldiers with calluses on their hands didn't care, they just felt warm in their hands, and took a sip slowly, the heat directly burned to the bottom of their hearts.

Xiong Da saw the appearance of the two of them, and was not in a hurry to talk about things.These brothers were suffering. When they entered the barracks, they were all in their teens, some of them were thirteen or fourteen.After fighting outside for several years, when I returned home, some family members were long gone, and although most of the family members were still there, they were all divided.

Xiong Da wanted to ask them to stay for a few more days, but the current situation simply did not allow it.

After a while, Li Er came over with two large bowls of noodles.

After all, Cuilian has also learned martial arts for so long, and now the hand-rolled noodles are very strong.Large pieces of fat and thin meat are piled on the surface, and there are crisp bean sprouts in the bowl.

Xiong Da also got a bowl, but the bowl was relatively small.He looked at the noodle bowl and asked Li Er: "Where is my wife?"

Li Er put the three plates of pickled vegetables away, and said, "Young Master, I'm going to rest first."

Xiong Da nodded: "Prepare some hot water in the kitchen. Go and rest when you're done."

Mr. Hao and Junshi Jia finished the noodles in a huff, and let out a sigh of satisfaction. While biting the pickled radish, they began to talk about business: "Now the mountain is closed, and things can't come up. The two of us will come up first this time. Tomorrow There will be a squad of twenty men coming."

"Twenty people?" Xiong Da frowned, "The terrain inside the mountain is complex, the personnel should not be too scattered, twenty people are not enough."

Junshi Jia sighed: "There are only so many people. There are not many good soldiers in the barracks, so we have to keep some people to guard the gate."

Master Hao nodded in agreement: "Tomorrow we have to go down the mountain to meet them, and we must pay attention to avoiding the mountain people."

"Maybe you don't have to worry too much about manpower." Xiong Dayi snatched the last piece of pickled cucumber with his chopsticks. "The message has been sent to the capital, and there should be an answer soon."

People in the village are used to the beasts entering the village, that's right.But apart from those years when there were natural disasters, which year would so many wild beasts come into the village to look for food?Many of them were visibly aroused, obviously alarmed by something.

At that time, there was nothing to do but Xiong Da led people into the mountain and found some traces: "I hope the situation is not as bad as I expected." But that is to say, the battlefield is always prepared for the worst.

The plan of the tea house was placed in a book on the desk, and Xiong Da couldn't take his eyes off after taking a look at it.The daughter-in-law is still thinking about building a tea house, how can this place be turned into a battlefield?
