The fertile water of farming does not flow to outsiders' fields

Little Xiucai never walked very little, and the ten miles from Chenjiacun to Fuchun County was really fatal. Seeing this, Zhajin got off his horse and let him and Changhui sit.

Pei Yuanqi actually wanted to ride a horse, but he also knew how to be humble, so he could only glance eagerly, Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "They only ride horses when they can't walk, look at how strong our legs are, walking on our legs is faster than them riding a horse .”

Zha Jin laughed and said, "Young master Pei can only be raised in the south. Our northern women are not so refined. They are all big and three rough."

The little scholar hated hearing this kind of talk the most, and said with a straight face: "I went to the city and practiced martial arts with brother Xue. After two years of practice, I'm sure I'll be strong enough to stand up to a tripod."

Xue Yinsong quickly looked at Zha Jin and shook his head slightly. Only then did Zha Jin realize that he had said something wrong, and changed the subject with a smile: "Brother Xue, how big is the backyard of your shop? Can you raise horses?"

Xue Yinsong nodded: "There is no problem raising horses, and in the future, we must rely on livestock to transport food. This year, we will have to buy a cow."

Zha Jin laughed and said: "If you want to pull things, you have to be a mule. Buy a white-fronted mule. With this little road, you can pull it back and forth eight times a day."

Xue Yinsong shook his head: "I have to take care of the field. Although 2 mu of land is not much, it is too laborious to rely on people. It is better to buy cattle, which can be used both for farming and pulling."

Zha Jin nodded: "That's true, mules are good in every way, but they just refuse to go to the ground."

After entering the city, Xue Yinsong brought a few people back to the shop. There was no one to sit in the house, so he had to stand in the yard first, and he went to the carpenter to get his belongings first.

The custom-made furniture is also simple, just a set of cabinets, stools, and tables in each room. Xue Yinsong found two people to transport the things and moved them. Only then did he think that it was already meal time, and the three big and two young were still hungry. .

Pei Yuanqi saw it, and hurriedly said: "Godfather, I can light a fire."

Xue Yinsong commanded: "Xiucai, you go to the kitchen to make two bowls of rice, and Xiaoqi goes to light the fire."

Zha Jin hurriedly said, "Brother Xue, what am I doing?"

"Go and see what vegetables are in the kitchen, and wash some out."

Xue Yinsong turned around and moved the last few stools into the room. As soon as he entered the stove, he saw three people busy making a pot of porridge. Zha Jin worried about a handful of vegetables. Light the fire neatly on the stool.

Xue Yinsong thought to Amitabha, and hurried in: "You two should go out, scholar, you go and pick a room, put the clothes we brought in, Zha Jin, you go out too, and pick a room for yourself."

Zha Jin hurriedly dropped the vegetables and ran away, but the little scholar still refused to let go, frowning and said: "The wheat you harvested last month was dried on the ground, right? Then this rice was also dried on the ground? You have to wash it well , otherwise you will have a mouthful of sand in your mouth.”

Xue Yinsong nodded and heaved a sigh of relief when he pushed him out: "Xiao Qi, you know how to choose vegetables, come on, help godfather choose this vegetable."

Xiaoqi stood up to pick up the vegetables and asked, "Godfather, what are you frying with these green vegetables?" Xue Yinsong looked around, but there were very few things in the kitchen, so he had to answer: "Let's stir fry first, I'll go there later in the afternoon." Buy some meat and vegetables, fortunately this is in the city, so it is convenient to buy everything.”

Xiao Qi nodded, and replied enthusiastically: "Godfather, from now on I will study during the day and cook for you when I come back in the afternoon, okay?"

Xue Yinsong smiled and said: "Okay, you are the sensible one out of the two children." Pei Yuanqi grinned at the praise, and happily sat in front of the stove with vegetables in his arms.

Xue Yinsong steamed a few handfuls of washed rice on the pot, searched again, but found no other dishes: "There is only one dish for today's meal, let's just eat it."

After a hasty meal at noon, several people felt a little sleepy, so they went back to their rooms to rest.Because there are so many rooms, apart from Xiucai and Xue Yinsong, Zhajin, Changhui and Xiaoqi each occupied a room.

Xue Yinsong entered the door and saw that the bed was not yet made, so he went to the cabinet to get the sheets, and saw two luggage neatly stuffed in the cabinet. Make the bed.

Little Xiucai was apologetic at the side, and came to help pull the sheets and said with a flattering smile, "Did you say to put them in the closet? I thought it would be fine to put the bundles in, but you didn't say to take them out one by one and put them away."

Xue Yinsong thought about it and didn't say a word. Although the young master was incapable of doing things, at least his attitude was correct, and he said, "Are you sleepy? After walking so much this early in the morning, do you want to wash your feet? Some water."

Xiao Xiucai nodded quickly, and Xue Yinsong went to the stove to take the remaining hot water and brought it into the room in a wooden basin.

Xiao Xiucai washed his feet, took off his clothes, rolled on the bed, yawned comfortably, and Xue Yinsong washed his feet with the remaining water and went to bed.

Before he could think about it, the door rang, and the boy came in and said, "The shopkeeper! The shopkeeper! Oh, it's you. I saw a horse tied up in the manger, and I thought it was a thief. "

The thief from your family sent horses to other people's house, Xue Yinsong threw off the quilt and was annoyed: "There is no rule, knock on the door first when entering in the future, no one should let you in."

Only then did the boy see that there was someone else on the bed, and he flushed with embarrassment and hurried outside: "Ahh! I was wrong, the shopkeeper! I didn't see my sister-in-law here! You should be beaten!"

After hearing him close the door, Xue Yinsong said through the door: "I'm tired after walking all morning. I don't have anything urgent. Let me talk about it in the afternoon. I'll go to bed first." I drilled my head out, turned around and fell asleep.

When Xue Yinsong got up in the afternoon, the young man hurriedly came to report: "I ran in the three alleys in the north of the city early in the morning."

Xue Yinsong made himself a cup of hot tea and sat down at the table: "Let's talk about it."

The little man hurriedly said: "These three alleys are all residents. I think the gates have been painted a few years ago, so they should be from good families."

Xue Yinsong took a piece of white paper and drew the map, and wrote a few lines of small characters: "Very good, rest today, and go around tomorrow."

The little guy didn't quite understand: "Shopkeeper, why do you want this? Isn't our family selling rice? Why are you walking around the streets and alleys?"

Xue Yinsong lowered his face: "Go as soon as I tell you, it's so long-winded."

The little guy rubbed his nose, thought about it, and then asked for credit: "Shopkeeper, this female cat has started to meow, and I think it will be ready soon."

Xue Yinsong nodded: "This is a major event. If you match well, the shopkeeper will reward you at that time."

Just as he was talking, Zha Jin also got up, his handsome face was pink, he came out yawning and said, "Brother Xue."

The little guy was stunned, and suddenly realized, he turned his face and said, "Hello, sister-in-law."

Zha Jin was taken aback, and laughed loudly: "Boy, what did you call me?"

Although the voice was clear, it was a man's voice. The boy was stunned for a moment, blushing and said: "I read it wrong, I read it wrong."

Xue Yinsong gave a false kick with a smile: "Get lost! You are not allowed to enter this backyard casually from now on!"

The little guy hurriedly agreed, and ran away in a hurry.

Soon the little guy ran all over the city, and Xue Yinsong drew a rough map for himself based on his description.

The little Xiucai looked at a large piece of white paper pasted on the wall, and asked a little puzzled, "What is this for?"

Xue Yinsong smiled mysteriously and said, "This is a good thing. You can understand where you want to go after just looking at this picture."

The map is too rough, and there are some ghost symbols that no one can understand. The little scholar studied it for a long time and decided to ignore it.

Because there was no grain to sell, life was easy, and a month passed before I knew it.

That day Xue Yinsong got up from a late sleep and went to the backyard to fetch water to wash his face.

Zhajin has already finished boxing three times, and is wiping his sweat with a cloth towel. This kid, despite his elegant clothes, is full of strong muscles when he takes off his clothes, especially his six-pack abdomen, which makes Xue Yinsong feel ashamed .

"Brother Xue, do you want to come?" Zha Jin asked with a smile while holding a stone lock.

Xue Yinsong shook his head. He plowed the field for half the night last night. Although he could not be said to be tired, he was dozed off and his mind was a little confused.

Zha Jin smiled and said, "Where is Mr. Pei?"

"Still sleeping," Xue Yinsong fetched a basin of hot water, washed his face first, and asked, "You are alone? Where are the two boys?"

"I went to school early in the morning." Zhajin replied, while putting on his clothes: "It's starting to get hot, when will I go back to the village to plant rice? I really want to go back to the countryside."

Xue Yinsong nodded: "Why don't we leave in two days, and we'll be growing mangos soon. We'll collect the vegetables from the fields and send them to the city for sale. Over there, the fields can be leveled and irrigated."

Zha Jin hurriedly said: "I would like to help. I was used to working in northern Xinjiang before, but now I feel uncomfortable when I come back to idle. If you have anything to do, just say it."

Xue Yinsong looked at the sky and said, "Why don't you pack up two pieces of clothes today, and let's go back for two days."

Zha Jin said: "Young Master Pei, will they stay or go back with us?"

Xue Yinsong thought about it and said, "Let's stay here. I'll be busy for ten days when I go back. There are so many people coming and going. Besides, there are still guys here, so it should be fine."

Zhajin was a little excited: "Okay, I'll clean up right away."

Xue Yinsong went back to his room and explained a few words to the scholar carefully, and then called his assistant to make detailed arrangements, and then he returned to the village with a small burden and Zhajin.

The two were young and had strong legs, and they arrived in the village before noon.When Father Xue saw them, he smiled and said, "I'm back now, isn't there still a few days left before Mangzhong?"

Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "I see that the weather is almost too hot, so I thought I should irrigate the fields first."

Father Xue was overjoyed and said again and again: "Are you tired? I'll get some hot water to wipe your faces and see how hot you all are. Are your backs wet? Go change your clothes."

Xue Yinsong didn't bother to enter the house, so he stood in the backyard and took off his clothes: "The animals at home are all right? How is the fox?"

Father Xue said with a smile: "It's all good, all is good, I'll get you some hot food, and talk while eating."

After eating and resting for a while, the two went to the field to check, and saw that the vegetable seedlings were already one inch high, and it was the time when they were tender and juicy.

Xue Yinsong smiled very satisfied: "Why don't we collect it overnight and send it back to the city to sell it in the morning."

Father Xue was actually a bit reluctant, but when he thought that he would not be able to wait for the ridge irrigation, he could only grit his teeth: "Okay, take a rest early after dinner today, and get up at four o'clock tomorrow morning to clean up. At dawn, I can use a cart to pull into the city."
