The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

On this day, a banquet was held in the Li family compound, and the villagers from the entire Li family village came. The tables were laid out along the road in front of the door, and the end could not be seen at a glance.The Li family specially invited a chef from a restaurant in the town to come over to cook the dishes. Big bowls of meat were served and placed on the table. Everyone's mouths were full of oil, and both adults and children had smiles on their faces.

Several tables were set up in the courtyard, and Li Wen invited the gentlemen to sit at the main table with Lu Zhishu, Shen Zijing and Su Yuan.After everyone had eaten, Li Wen and his father were busy sending the guests away again.

"Let's make an appointment another day." Li Wen sent Lu Zhishu and Shen Zijing Su Yuan out together, and said to them, "I'm too busy today, I don't have much time to greet you, let's have a good get together some other day."

"Okay, let's go back." Shen Zijing was still thinking about what Li Wen said, but he had already made a decision in his heart.Su Yuan stood beside Shen Zijing. The two grew up together and were inseparable. Where there is Shen Zijing, there must be Su Yuan.So if Shen Zijing came to Lijiacun as a teacher, Su Yuan would definitely come with him.

Li Wen was aware of this, that's why he set his mind on Shen Zijing, and could invite two of them with one invitation.According to Li Wen's understanding of them, according to the personalities of Shen Zijing and Su Yuan, Su Yuan must be more suitable to be a husband. With Shen Zijing's personality, it's okay to pick a few good seedlings for him, but it's okay for him to have too many students. Patience to teach.

In fact, Li Wen was on Su Yuan's idea from the very beginning, but if Shen Zijing didn't come, Su Yuan would definitely not want to come.But Shen Zijing nodded, Su Yuan will definitely follow.

The father and son saw off the last guest at home, and Li Wen slumped on the chair and didn't want to move.Sun Yi had been busy in the kitchen for a whole day today, when she entered the door, she saw a father and son sitting there. The woman asked with a smile on her face, "Do you want to eat something?"

"Mum." Li Wen turned to look at his aunt, and said, "I won't eat. If you haven't eaten, aunt, go and eat. Dad, you and aunt should go eat something. I ate a little bit just now. I'm not hungry right now."

Li Wen knew that his father had been busy all day and didn't even have time to sit down and drink water, so he asked his father and his mother to have dinner together.

"Yeah." Li Shanshan was hungry, he stood up from his chair, and planned to have something to eat with his wife.Sun Yi looked at her son and said, "Then your father and I are going to have dinner. If you are hungry, tell Auntie that there is still food in the kitchen."

"Oh, yes, Master Zhao and the others haven't come back yet?" She didn't see Master Zhao and the others coming back for dinner today.

"They went hunting in the mountains, and they should be back soon. Auntie, let the kitchen prepare two tables of meals. I will eat with them when Big Brother Zhao and the others come back." He really didn't want to move at this moment, Li Wenzuo Said to his mother there"

This group of people went hunting in the mountains for a long time, why haven't they come back yet?Li Wen was worried that these people would harm the animals on the mountain.

"Okay, I'm going right now, Ma'am." After Sun Yi finished speaking, she went out with Fu Lang.

The tables at the door, after eating, whoever belongs to them will take them home, as well as the dishes and chopsticks for eating, whoever belongs to them will take them home.The women of the clan stayed behind to help clean up and clean the road outside before going back.

In the evening of summer, there are layers of clouds in the west, yellow, red, orange, and white. The colors are gorgeous and colorful, intertwined and dyed half of the sky red.At the time when the sun was setting, the group that went up the mountain to hunt came back.

The prey they brought back were piled up in the yard, and they were the spoils they got from going up the mountain today.

Seeing so many prey, Li Wen couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and then he said that this group of people went up the mountain for so long and didn't come down, did they have to kill all the living things on the mountain before coming down.Seeing so many things, it seems that it is almost enough to not destroy all the living things in several mountains.

"We have a lot of people and eat a lot." Seeing Li Liuyuan's face, as if he knew what Li Liuyuan was thinking, Zhao Xiangyi said.

In fact, this group of soldiers hadn't gone hunting in the mountains for a long time. Since returning to the capital, they were all detained in the big camp in the suburbs of Beijing.This time, if they hadn't followed the little general to send Li Liuyuan back to his hometown to visit his relatives, they were still locked up in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, so how could they go hunting in the mountains.

It is rare to encounter such a good opportunity, so when these people went up to the mountain, they got carried away hunting. If it wasn't for the late sky, they would still be reluctant to come down.

It's just these people who are skilled and bold, and go hunting in the mountains until they don't want to go down the mountain.If it was an ordinary person, they might not dare to enter the mountain. When these people entered the mountain, it was like returning home, and the prey they saw could not escape their palms.But they didn't go into the deep mountains either. There are wolves in the deep mountains, which they are not afraid of these days.

The soldiers never like to provoke those things. Animals like wolves hold vengeance, and if they are provoked, it is a trouble. If they don't kill them all, they are afraid that they will take revenge. They don't want to bring unnecessary trouble to this small village.

So they were only hunting on the outskirts of the mountain, but even so, they still brought back a lot of prey, and now the prey they brought back were piled up into a hill.

Both the deer and the roe brought back several of them. Fortunately, two of the deer and one roe were still alive with a little injury. They were trapped there with ropes in case they would run away.There is also a wild boar weighing several hundred catties, which is already dead.

All that remained were small game, beautifully plumed pheasants and rabbits, many of which were fortunately alive.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of people alive here, otherwise I really don't know what to do at this moment.The living ones can be raised first, and the dead ones must be disposed of first.Li Wen frowned, and said to his mother, "Mother, let's raise the living ones first, and deal with the dead ones."

"We have a lot of people here. Let's pack up a deer and a roe for roasting later, and send these rabbits and pheasants to the kitchen for someone to deal with. If they need to be boiled or stewed, they will be processed. "

"This wild boar has a lot of meat. Cut it up and send some meat to the village head and Li Zheng. Let's pick some rabbits and pheasants and send it together." No matter how you look at it, this wild boar weighs five or six hundred catties. The meat chai is not very tasty, so it is better to cut it up and give it to others, and they can keep a little for themselves.

The weather is hot, and the meat is not easy to store. If it needs to be stored for a long time, it can only be thrown away if it stinks. It is also a waste. It is better to give it to others.

Li Wen said to his father, "It's better for you to see how to deal with it, you can deal with it."

He doesn't understand these general affairs like his father, so it's better to let his father handle them, and his father can handle them more thoughtfully.

"Okay, just leave these things to daddy." Li Shanshan was thinking about how to deal with these things in his heart.Seeing that his father is here, and he can't be of much help if he stays here, Li Wen said, "Then father, I will leave this place to you, and I will take them to dinner first."

"Okay, you guys go." Li Shanshan waved his hand and said.

There was still a lot of food left in the kitchen, so Li Wen took Zhao Xiangyi and his group over to eat first, and said to Zhao Xiangyi, "Let's eat first, those prey can't be processed so quickly."

When those prey are dealt with, they can have supper at night.

This group of people went up the mountain to hunt for a long time before returning, and they must be hungry.

These soldiers scooped up rice and meat with big bowls one by one, found a place to sit, and ate big mouthfuls.After getting along with Li Liuyuan for more than half a month, they all knew that Li Liuyuan was not the same as the scholars they knew before. Although Li Liuyuan was the most educated person in the world, Li Liuyuan was not sour at all, and he was not talkative. Sitting down to eat together, there is no airs at all.

So after we get along for a while, these soldiers are no longer afraid of Li Liuyuan, and there is nothing restrained in front of Li Liuyuan.But Li Liuyuan is the most educated person in the world, so these soldiers still respect and worship Li Liuyuan in their hearts.

This is not a number one prize that comes out every three years, but a six-yuan prize that may not come out once in a hundred years.This time they escorted Liu Yuan back to his hometown to visit his relatives. Thinking about it, it is a very honorable thing, hehehe...

In the evening they barbecued and drank in the yard. There was still a lot of wine in the cellar of their house. Li Wen asked someone to take out the wine.As soon as the jar was lifted, a mellow wine scent wafted out. As soon as Xie Yunfei smelled the wine scent, he leaned over and took a deep breath, slapped his knees, and said, "Good wine!"

"This wine tastes better than the wine you brought last time."

These soldiers smelled the smell of wine one by one, and squatted around the jar and did not leave.

"Smells good." Someone said.

"I've never smelled such a fragrant wine." It was this smell, and they all felt that they were going to be drunk, and they didn't know how it would feel to take a sip.

Among this group of people, some of them followed Xie Yunfei to the Zhuangzi to drink wine last time. Zhang Mingyu still remembers the taste, and it is already the most fragrant wine he has ever drunk.Unexpectedly, this wine is better than the wine they drank last time. He didn't know what it was like to take a sip, so he licked his lips and wanted to drink.

This group of people didn't say anything, and the words "want to drink" were written on their faces.

Zhao Xiangyi also smelled the aroma of wine in the air, which was even more fragrant than the wine Li Liuyuan sent last time. His eyes looked at the young man.Seeing that the group of soldiers smelled the smell of wine like a dog smelling of bones, all of them couldn't move around here, the corners of Li Wen's mouth curled up, and he said, "That's natural, I treated you to a drink last time." The wine is newly brewed, and these wines have been stored for several years, so the taste is naturally more fragrant."

"Everyone go get a bowl and pour it. There is enough wine tonight, not enough for the cellar below. Let's not get drunk tonight." I know these people like to drink from big bowls. They don't like to use cups, because they dislike cups Too small, asked Li

Send someone to get the big bowl.

"I want I want."

"Bring me a bowl."

"Don't grab it, there's still more."

The soldier who poured the wine first took a sip, his eyes lit up, he drank a bowl of Gulu Gulu, and then took another bowl to pour it out.Seeing the pride of these soldiers drinking, Li Wen's mouth twitched. He handed a bowl of wine to Zhao Xiangyi, and said, "Try it, it should taste better than the last one."

Zhao Xiangyi took the bowl, lowered his head, smelled it, and took a sip. As soon as he drank the wine, Zhao Xiangyi knew that it was many times better than the wine they drank last time.

Seeing Zhao Xiangyi's expression, Li Wen knew that he was very satisfied with this wine, he smiled and said, "As long as you like it." If he remembered correctly, there is another place that has wine, and that wine is probably better The wine stored in his house tastes better, Li Wen said, "I will take you to a place tomorrow, there is better wine than this.

When Li Wen found out what he said, General Zhao's eyes lit up when he looked at him.

"Not today, it's getting dark, let's go tomorrow." He was so tired today, if it wasn't for this group of people, he would have gone back to the house to wash up and go to bed, so he can only stay here now Have a BBQ with them.

Hearing this, Zhao Xiangyi gave a reluctant "Yes".

If the dog in front of him was a big dog, Li Wen would suspect that General Zhao's ears would droop after hearing his words, making him want to reach out and touch General Zhao's head.But after all, he didn't really do that. The other party's official position is a little general higher than him, so how can a man's head be touched casually.

A rack was set up in the yard, and a whole deer was roasted on skewers, and a fire was lit underneath, and the meat was roasted on it.

Some of them know how to grill, and they are in charge of grilling meat.

Night fell and it was dark.

A group of them were still barbecuing and drinking in the yard, Li Wen went to talk to his parents, told them to go to bed first and leave them alone, they didn't know when they would finish drinking.

"Okay, daddy and your mommy will go to bed first." They were tired all day today, and now they are tired and sleepy, Li Shanshan told his son not to play too late, go to bed earlier, He knew that his son had been busy all day, and he was no better than them.

"Well, Dad, I understand, you and A Niang go to bed first." Li Wen said.

Li Haopeng played around all day today, before it was dark, he ran to his brother's bed and fell asleep. Sun Yi found the younger son sleeping on the bed in the elder son's room, and smiled helplessly.Seeing the youngest son at the elder son's place, Li Shanshan said, "Let him sleep here."

The relationship between the two brothers has been good since they were young. No matter how often the eldest son comes back, the younger son always remembers his brother, who likes to cling to his brother as soon as he comes back.

Sun Yi reached out to touch the younger son, wiped off his sweat, and went back to the house with her husband.

The old man in the family went back to the house to sleep as soon as it got dark, and the hut was already quiet at the moment.
