struggle in ancient times

"This is specially made for the villagers. It can save time and money, Dad. Take him back to the village chief!"

After Liao Tingyu handed the farm tool to Liao Ming, Liao Ming kept sighing that he did not forget his origin.

The village head had just wandered out from the school in the village when he saw Liao Ming, who hadn't come back for a long time, sitting at the door of his house waiting for him.

"Brother, why are you back? Why are you sitting here at the door? Don't go in! Is there anything wrong in the town? Why don't we have a sip or two now." The village chief greeted him warmly.

"No, no, I'll wait for you here." Liao Ming refused.

"Wait for me, what's the matter?" The village chief asked curiously.

"Look, my son brought it back when he went on a study tour. Do you know how to use it?" Liao Ming took out the agricultural tools.

The village chief checked it out and found that it was a rice barrel, the only difference being that there was an extra piece of wood inside.

"I can't tell. It's just a piece of wood. Is there any difference?" The village chief didn't feel any difference.

"Bring a handful of rice here, and I'll get it for you to have a look." Liao Ming thought about it and thought that he should do it himself. After all, he didn't know the specific benefits, so he couldn't explain it clearly.

Liao Ming thought about it for a while and decided that he should demonstrate it to the village chief. In fact, he also listened to what his son said, and he didn't quite understand it.

So he took the farm tools and walked to the village chief's rice field together.

The wheatgrass in the field has grown, one by one, very plump and green.

It looks pleasing, and can be harvested when the green turns yellow.

The village chief gave up his life to accompany the gentleman, and he was so cruel that he pulled out a handful of ears of wheat and handed them to Liao Ming.

Liao Ming took it and put it in the rice bucket, operated it according to Liao Tingyu's instructions, then gently took out the pole and poured out the wheat in the bucket. The village chief saw that it was really convenient.

And you can make a lot, convenient and compact, not bad!

"This thing is quite miraculous. I don't know how your kid came across it. If everyone uses it, it can save a lot of effort." The village chief praised.

"He has given these things to others, and others will know how to do it."

"Your second boy heard that he plans to take the Juren examination, how can you be sure?" The village chief took the things, looked at Liao Ming with a deep expression, and said what was in his heart.

"It should be quite sure. His wife and the dean of the college are all in favor of him taking the exam. I also thought about it and let him go. Anyway, there is nothing missing at home now." Liao Ming replied .

"Since you have made a decision, why is your face so unhappy?"

"I'm worried about him. I've been worrying about him day and night during the past few months of his study tour. Who knows if there are those tyrannical bandits along the way. I think when we were young when we went to wander, we met along the way. There are so many difficulties and obstacles." Liao Ming thought about the hardships when he was young, because he didn't want to be trapped in this village and venture out.

"He is different from us. He has a lot of money when he walks. When we two went out, what did we have? We just carried two rags on our backs, and the money we had saved so hard didn't add up to a tael. You just say you Just touch the son's body now, it's been several years, different, don't worry so much. The child will always fly when he grows up, and he will rush to his way forward." The village chief patted Liao. Ming's shoulder, and said comfortingly.

"I also know, but some things can't be solved with money. That kid is powerless. You are outside, and you can't even light a fire without listening to him. I haven't met him in the past few months." It's good luck." Liao Ming sighed.

He subconsciously ignored Xiao Qiu's role.

"I regret it now, why didn't I let him do some farm work at the beginning, at least he has the strength of a fist, and knows how to hide when others fight."

The village chief nodded. It was true. That boy Liao Tingyu didn't have the strength of a man who had endured hardships. He couldn't even match the strength of a half-grown child in the village.

"Why don't you find some young and strong people in the village to follow him when he goes out for the exam." The village chief thought about it and thought it was feasible.

"How long will it take to follow him? I heard that his father and son meant that if he passed the Juren examination, he would have to continue the Jinshi examination before he could become an official. The tone he said back did not seem to be short. There are a few families who are willing to do it within a year and a half. Now that life is better, not many people are willing to travel outside like we did back then. And I don’t know if that kid will do it or not.” Liao Ming was full of melancholy.

"Why don't you ask him what he means. He has traveled far, so he should know something about it. You can mention it again and see what he intends to do." The village chief thought for a while, and felt that this matter should be discussed with Liao Tingyu. Let's discuss it, after all, it is related to the major events of his life.

Liao Ming thought about it and felt that this was the right thing to do, so he bid farewell to the village chief.

Deng Shi and Huang Zilan are already helping Liao Tingyu prepare for the exam these days.

When Liao Ming returned home, he saw that the house was bloody: "Isn't it about half a year before leaving? Why are you so busy now?"

"Now we should get ready earlier." Deng embroidered his clothes without raising his head.

"These clothes and other things can't be bought, so I can only embroider them by ourselves. I embroider them for him and make them firmer. It's not cold at night."

"Stop what you're holding first. I discussed it with the village chief. It will take a long time for him to go to Beijing for the exam, and he has to pass through those poor and remote places. I'm afraid there will be some troublesome people, so you call him tonight. Let's have a meal at home, let's discuss who we will bring along on the road." Liao Ming instructed Deng Shi.

Sitting at the table at night, Liao Ming asked Liao Tingyu if he would take some people with him to make it safer when he went to catch the exam. Liao Tingyu said that he still planned to take Huang Zilan with him, and if Xiaoqiu came, he would take Xiaoqiu with him.

After all, when a person has you, every time he looks at the bright moon in the sky, his heart is full of loneliness. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, there is no way to share it without someone who knows and loves each other.

"Just take your husband alone, you two are not in the sun, and going to the capital is not as simple as you going on a study tour. Everyone knows that people in the past are fat sheep." Liao Ming was very excited. disagree.

"We can take good care of ourselves, and it's just the three of us during the study tour?" Liao Tingyu didn't agree with Liao Ming's opinion, he thought he could do it.

"The child hasn't come back yet! Besides, he's just a child! You can't leave everything to an outsider!"

"The ones your master gave you are official roads. We are going to the capital. I read the map. We have to take several small roads. These small roads are all on this stretch of mountains. If you want to take the official road, then you must Go in a big circle."

"Then Father means that we should find some bodyguards to escort us." Liao Tingyu said.

"As soon as you two big spenders ran to a remote place, you two were dealt with before the bandits started."

Liao Tingyu's eyes bulged when he heard this.

Seeing his expression, Liao Ming was so angry that he drank a big sip of water, it was really useless and he was on guard.

"Why don't we close the shop and go with the second brother. I've never been out since I grew up. Besides, we have a large family. Those bandits won't surround us." Liao Shi looked at the father and son staring at each other, and hurriedly offered advice.

This sentence won Deng's heart deeply, and for the first time she felt that her eldest son did not eat for nothing.

"That's right, son, didn't you say you missed me on the road? Then let's go on the road together. Anyway, we can't earn enough money. Just close the shop or let the Huang family take over." Deng was happy. Said.

"Ah?" Liao Tingyu was surprised, but Deng ignored him.

The two parents also discussed it and found it feasible, and they unanimously decided to go with their son.

This matter has also been settled and cannot be refuted.

After all, it's been two or three months since I left. I haven't seen my second son for two or three months, but I still can't let it go.

Since we are going, it is better to go with the whole family.

And they can also help Huang Zilan share some of the burden during the exam days.

Wen Xiu'er didn't have anything to do with it, and now her son is grown up.

Do a car as a tour.

Although earning money is more important, it is more important than the future of the second brother.

These can all be put aside.

Originally, it was only necessary to prepare things for Liao Tingyu alone, but now he decided to go with the whole family, so there is still a lot to prepare. Deng has been so busy this month that he has lost several strands of hair.

Wen Xiu'er was even a little neurotic and always felt that she was missing this or that.

This was the case when Xiaoqiu rushed over, and he also brazenly insisted on joining the team.

After all, he can hunt!

"Okay, don't think about it anymore, we'll buy what you need on the way." Liao Shi felt helpless seeing his wife's restless look.

How can every day count!There is still such a long time to think slowly.

The key is that he is also rich and powerful now. After all, the business in the shop is very good now, and all the money they earn belongs to them. They only need to give their parents a certain amount of money every month.

"It's easy for you to say, what are you buying on the road? If we don't go to the village or go to the store, we can't buy it even if we have money. I have to think about it carefully. If I want to bring something, what are the shortcomings?" Wen Xiuer retorted Speaking of which, he sat on the bed and took a detailed inventory.

"Our son is only so old, what if there are shortcomings?"

Liao Shi felt that he had cheated himself. He originally planned to go on the road as a family with ease.

Now, the three cows are no longer needed. Each cow is assigned to a carriage, and the house is full of things.

Sigh, I don't know what's going on with the second brother?
