I engaged in modernization in ancient times

The heated kang is installed in my grandmother's bedroom, so that every night I can sleep warmly and quietly for a whole night.

The fire stools are placed in the hall, the hall is spacious, and the girls from the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion are all here, and they can sit down.

The fire bench is actually similar to the fire wall. In colder regions, some people leave a gap in the middle of the entire wall. When the heat from the firewood is burned, the entire wall is warm.

Leaning on the top, every day is better than a living god.

Of course, the buildings of the Zhenbei Palace are not suitable for firewalls. It is equivalent to remodeling a wall, which is too time-consuming and laborious.

So Mo Shaoheng changed it to a fire stool.

That is to say, on the inner edge of the hall, a circle of connected "small Kang" is built, which is only about knee height.

It can be directly used as a stool, and it is called a fire stool, because it surrounds the hall, and naturally many people can sit down.

The style of the hall must have changed, but the area occupied by the fire bench is not large, and the change is acceptable.

Of course, the fire stool is made of bricks, which looks cold and not very attractive.

Mo Shaoheng simply asked the embroiderer in the mansion to embroider some sofa covers with brocade cloth, spread some of the cloth on the fire bench, and then covered it with a generous and decent cover, which made the hall feel like a sofa .

For Mo Shaoheng to engage in such a big fight, the aunts and aunts in the house, as well as the little girls in the house, basically came to see the situation every day.

"Huh? Is this a stool for sitting on?"

"It feels quite comfortable, and it's soft to sit on."

It's probably like a sofa.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, this is where to go.

Coincidentally, the embroiderer in the mansion also sent over the pillows that had been sewn.

The fabric of this pillow is a bit special, it was Tianfei who wove silk into silk and sent some, not many.

Mo Shaoheng thought that it would be unfair to give the silk to any girl, so he simply asked the embroiderer to sew it into a pillow and put it in the hall, so that everyone can hug it and play with it.

Sure enough, as soon as the boxy pillow was placed on the fire bench, a girl hugged her in her arms unconsciously.

"What is this? It's like a pillow, but it doesn't seem to be."

There are some patterns embroidered on the silk, and it looks really beautiful.

"Huh? The fabric seems to be a little different." Someone noticed the difference.

It attracted many people to watch, "Could this be the piece of silk sent by Tianfei two days ago?"

It became lively in an instant.

Sitting on the fire bench with a pillow in their arms, a group of girls started chatting as if they had found a new topic.

At this time, Mo Haitang came in from outside the hall, "Why do I see a huge chimney erected outside our hall?"

She was a little uncertain, this is not the back kitchen, what is there to do with a big chimney.

Mo Haitang was followed by a nanny in charge, and the nanny in charge walked towards Mo Shaoheng: "My lord, now that the weather is getting colder, we need to add some braziers to our house. Are we going to buy white birch from Yuzhou this year, or Lansi from Jingzhou?" Wood?"

Whether it is the birch wood from Yuzhou or the Lansi wood from Jingzhou, they are all common smokeless wood, but the price is not cheap.

No matter how good the smoke-free wood is, the Zhenbei Palace does not use it, saving money.

"The old slave made some inquiries and heard that the price of Lansi wood in Jingzhou is a bit more expensive this year."

Mo Shaoheng said, "Wait a minute."

The old nanny was taken aback, if she waited any longer, she would only be able to buy some poor quality ones.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, now that the fire bench has been built, it's time to try it.

Just now, people are going to burn the kang, and the effect should come soon.

After thinking about it, I asked someone to call grandma too.

When grandma came, Mrs. Yong'an and several aunts and uncles followed behind.

"Heng'er, why are you looking for grandma?" Grandma asked.

Mo Shaoheng replied, "It's nothing important, but the fire bench in the hall has been built, let grandma hold the eye."

Grandma's eyes flicked to the circle of "sofas" around the hall.

"Huh? It looks pretty good, but it feels weird."

After all, it is something that has never appeared before. It will definitely feel weird when you see it for the first time, but you will be fine when you get used to it.

Mo Shaoheng supported his grandmother towards the fire bench.

"It's pretty soft."

It's like a cushion on the stool, and it looks more beautiful.

Grandma said suddenly, "What kind of material are you using for this cloth? It seems to be burning when I touch it." Grandma just came in from the outside, and she could feel a slight temperature difference.

Mo Shaoheng smiled and said, "It's the ordinary Hang Jin."

"However, grandma is right. There is fire in the fire stool, and when it is transferred to the fabric, it will naturally feel warm."

Mo Shaoheng continued, "I thought, the family uses the brazier every year, but the brazier makes people feel suffocated, and even a little bit of smoke will smother the eyes and easily choke people."

"Besides, the annual expenditure on smoke-free wood is not small, so I just got such a fire stool to try, it is quiet, warm and safe."

Not only is the brazier stuffy, it also makes a creaking sound when it is burning, and it has to be guarded from time to time, which is actually quite troublesome to use.

At this time, several girls suddenly made voices, "Hey, this stool... this stool is really angry."

It is estimated that the kang has been burning for a while, and the temperature is directly transmitted through the bricks.

There was a sound of surprise.

Mrs. Yong'an and several aunts and uncles also stepped forward, touching the "sofa" for a while, and trying to sit on it, they were so surprised.

"It was a little bit cold outside the house just now, but I feel warm after sitting here."

The warmth is transmitted to the body, which makes people feel warm.

For a moment, I am afraid that I will forget that it is winter.

Surprised, so the fire stool made by their eldest son is not just a circle of strange stools, the biggest use is here.

Mo Shaoheng also touched it, and the temperature was about the same. He asked someone to close the door of the burning fire chamber, and only needed to leave a small gap, so that the inflow of oxygen could be controlled, and the size of the fire inside the fire chamber could be directly controlled. .

If you put a stove of wood and control the burning, it can burn for a whole day.

A group of people were still amazed, extremely strange.

No matter how you look at it, it is better than a brazier. Not only is it smoke-free and noise-free, but it is also more comfortable than a brazier.

If you are far away from the brazier, it is as if it is not burning, but if you are close, you will be burned by the fire again.

This fire bench is different. Sitting on it, the warmth goes directly into the body.

Because the fire bench is separated by bricks and covered with a layer of brocade, the temperature is indeed much milder.

After a while, the whole hall became warm.

Because of the brazier, the doors and windows cannot be completely closed, so even if the brazier is burning, the cold wind will continue to penetrate into the room, but the fire stool can close the doors and windows tightly, and the heat preservation effect has increased a lot.

After experiencing it strangely, I couldn't help being curious about the fire stool itself.

Mo Shaoheng inevitably took people to look at the chimney, fire chamber and so on.

Then he said, "Now I'm making a kang for my grandma, which is similar to a fire bench, but it's bigger and can sleep people."

Everyone: "..."

It's so comfortable to sleep on it, I'm afraid I don't even want to get up.

Mo Shaoheng said, "When the kang in grandma's house is ready, each room will also be arranged."

It is true that each room has to be put on the kang plate. Of course, there is no need for a fire bench. It is enough to have a main room in the hall. If you have nothing to do during the day, you can go to the main room by yourself.

"In the future, there is no need to buy smoke-free wood."

If each room is equipped with heated kangs, it will cost a lot at one time, but in the long run, the savings will not be a little bit, and of course it is not all because of saving, but because it is really useful.

A few days later, the kang in grandma's room was also set up.

Grandma laughed from ear to ear, "My arm used to hurt badly every winter, but this year there is no sign at all."

"This kang, the quilt is full of heat, and the whole body will be warm after sleeping all night."

Even the aristocrats of aristocratic families have never spent the winter so comfortably before.

There are heated kangs at night and fire benches during the day.

Mo Shaoheng also hurriedly asked the craftsmen to set up the kangs in each room for himself and Nan Yi, seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder.

Brick kept moving into the mansion, and the people of Liangjing were still surprised. Is the Zhenbei Palace a big construction project?I didn't see what to fix.

At this time, Mo Shaoheng was heating his winter peppers.

He planted peppers throughout the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. Because the sowing time was late, the peppers were not harvested until now.

Now it just happens to be roasted on the fire, and roasted into dried chili for restraint.

The harvest was indeed a bit more, and some girls were still wondering what it was, and took a bite out of curiosity, and then their faces were hot red, and tears flowed down.

Mo Shaoheng hurriedly asked someone to bring some tea, these girls were a little too courageous, even if they planted all the yards, it was definitely not poison, but they couldn't just put it in their mouths.

Fortunately, I just took a bite, and I recovered after drinking more tea.

"What the hell is this? Why is it so scary."

Mo Shaoheng smiled, "This is a good thing."

After thinking about it, it is naturally possible to roast all of them into dried chili peppers, but fresh chili peppers are more useful, they can be fried and eaten, and can be used to make chili sauce.

Just in time for people to buy some mutton and beef, while the peppers are fresh, try stir-frying.

It's just that there is no frying pan in the mansion, so a cooking stove has to be replaced.

A few days later, Bird Clothes Lane.

Nan Yi was holding a jar of honey and eating vigorously.

This honey is made by the two boxes of bees raised in their yard. Now that the weather is slightly cold, the bees don't go out much.

When Nan Yi went to catch bees to practice acupuncture, he found a lot of honey in the barrel.

I was so happy that I covered it tightly, and took out the honey in the two wooden barrels.

It's strange to say that if it was a wild bee, after the honey was taken out, the bee colony would disperse, and I don't know where to fly to build a new nest, but their two buckets of bees were very strange, and they still didn't fly away.

Zhao Jingcheng looked at Nan Yi who was eating honey, "What's the taste? Give me a taste too?"

Honey is rare, and there are only one or two barrels of tribute in the palace every year, but look at Nan Yi, it's like eating for free.

Nan Yi: "..."

Zhao Jingcheng: "I'll treat you to pickled cabbage fish later."

Nan Yi: "No, today we eat stir-fried mutton and stir-fried beef in our house."

brush!

There were more than a dozen students around, and the radar above their heads seemed to be touched by something.

If there is an exclamation mark above their heads, it must be flashing non-stop.

Stir-fried lamb, stir-fried beef, what is it?

Nan Yi was taken aback, "What's the matter with you? Don't you..."

Zhao Jingcheng replied shyly, "It's only natural for students to go to the teacher's house to play."

Nan Yi: "..."

After a while, several students gathered around the honey Nan Yi brought and ate it vigorously.

Nan Yi: "..."

For this group of snacks, his honey is prepared to eat for several days, "It's delicious, this is real honey, not adulterated at all."

Zhao Jingcheng and others: "..."

This little Taoist is talking nonsense again, can there be fake honey?But it's really delicious, with a floral fragrance in the sweetness.

"If only we could keep bees too, so we can eat honey regularly."

Mo Shaoheng looked at a group of students and shook his head helplessly, how did he become a group of snacks?

but……

"It's not impossible to keep bees."

Just in time, a new queen bee appeared in his two bee colonies, and they would fight if they didn't separate the hives.

Now that the weather is getting colder, after separating the nests, this season is also the season when bees are the most lazy to escape.

Of course, you have to keep warm, otherwise the bees will be frozen to death.

A group of students feeding honey into their mouths: "..."

Swallowing, "Can we also raise bees?"

Damn, why do I feel so excited all of a sudden.

It's the age when I'm curious about everything. I can't imagine how excited I am when I think I can raise bees. It's probably the same as when I first got a pet. It's just that this pet is a little bit unique.

Mo Shaoheng said "En", and then said, "But it can also create two more hives."

"If there are still people who want to adopt, they have to wait."

In the end, Zhao Jingcheng and Fan Shen managed to come out on top among the screaming students by some unknown method.

The other students were tearful, especially Zhao Yuning, he really wanted to raise him.

Mo Shaoheng happened to tell them the precautions for raising bees, and the other people who didn't get the bees actually listened very seriously, as if they were preparing to learn. Anyway, they can raise bees in the future, but the time will be later.

Sure enough, there are no students who do not work hard in front of the things they are interested in.

After a while, more than a dozen carriages headed towards Zhenbei Palace.

A group of snack foodies, by the way, went to get bees.

There was still some time before dinner, Mo Shaoheng said to Nan, "Take them to the hall, where it is warm."

A group of students have not yet felt that there is anything wrong.

But after a while, there were cries of surprise from the entire hall.

"What is this?"

A group of students could not wait to hug each other on the fire bench.

"It's too warm, too."

"This stool... this stool is actually warm."

Nan Yi: "..."

Their fire benches are indeed good, but these teenagers are a little too excited, right?

It is estimated that it is the difference between having heating and not heating at home.

Holding the silk pillow, sitting on the fire stool, the little butt kept feeling the temperature.

It's too funny.

"That's great too."

"Nan Yi, do you sit on it every day and don't want to lift your butt?"

"And this pillow, it's so comfortable to hold."

Nan Yi shook his head, "No need, there is a kang in my house, and sleeping on it is warmer than this."

A group of students: "..."

ha?

What kind of fairy house is that?

Their eyes are rolling around, they have to go and see later, they really can't move their butts now.

Each of them is curious about everything, even the pillow in their hands has to be hugged for a while, and it will take a long time not to be hugged.

"Is this pillow made of silk? Our family also got a piece, and my mother is reluctant to use it to make clothes."

In fact, the outer cover is silk, and the inner is stuffed with brocade cloth.

A group of young boys in small robes sitting on the "sofa" looked cute and cute.

When Mo Shaoheng asked them to eat, they were still reluctant to leave.

The surprise that the fire stool left them was too great.

Mo Shaoheng said, "Like fire stools?"

"Go to the shop in Wuyi Lane and find Master Yu, he can arrange it for you."

Mo Shaoheng originally planned to turn Pan Kang into a business.

This is a big business. I believe that those who have seen the fire bench and fire kang will not be able to resist its benefits.

The aristocrats of the aristocratic family can also set up a fire stool in the hall, and a fire kang in the room. For ordinary people, if they are a little richer, the fire stool may not be necessary, but the kang is also needed.

When these students' mansions are on the market, the noble ladies often walk around each other, and if there are fire stools, the guests must be arranged on the fire stools.

In this way, he will not worry about no business if he spreads it ten times and one hundred.

Even if there is no fire bench for receiving guests in the hall of the house, it is too embarrassing to call yourself a nobleman of the family.

There is no reason for rich people to worry about heating.

At this time, Bucai's nuns also came up.

The people in the mansion are also familiar with these students of Mo Shaoheng, and they had eaten a meal when they were sauerkraut fish last time.

The grandmother asked a few questions with a smile, thinking about letting these teenagers eat more.

When the food was served, I found two new dishes with a strong aroma.

The stir-fried mutton and beef taste really fragrant, which is quite different from the usual boiled ones.

It belongs to another cuisine entirely.

Because it was the first time to stir-fry vegetables with chili, Mo Shaoheng didn't put much in it because he was afraid that everyone would not get used to it.

Also fully sautéed the chilli to try to make it more spicy.

Pick up a piece of oily and fragrant meat and put it in your mouth, chew it, and a completely different taste will come out.

One of the characteristics of stir-frying is that the pot is gas, fragrant and delicious.

The unique chewiness of mutton and beef, the stimulated aroma of meat, the spicy aroma of chili, and a little aroma of other seasonings directly stimulate the taste buds.

Mutton and beef are considered the most common meats eaten by nobles in aristocratic families, but this is the first time for them to eat this way.

A group of students stuffed their mouths, it was so delicious.

The eyes of the girls in the mansion are also brightened, this way of eating is strange and delicious, recently they always have to say a word or two about the new food in their house in front of their boudoir friends, envious of many people.

Mo Shaoheng also sighed, finally eating stir-fried vegetables.

While eating, Nan looked at Mo Shaoheng. He remembered that the young master said that boiled water is only eaten by people who lose weight, and it tastes bad. He didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence before.

But now, he understands.

Only when it is fried and eaten can it taste delicious.

After eating, a group of students still slurped the taste with their small mouths.

Then he yelled that he was going to see Nan Yi's kang.

Now it's not time to burn the kang, Nan Yi had no choice but to call people over and burn the kang for these screaming teenagers to see.

Nan Yi's room is in Mo Shaoheng's yard.

The kang burned up, and the warmth was wrapped in the quilt.

Stretch your hands into the quilt, and you can feel that warm feeling.

Nan Yi was still talking, "Our house has such a kang, isn't it warm? The downside is that it's so comfortable to fall asleep, and I don't want to get up at all in the morning."

A group of students: "..."

They also want the downside.

Zhao Jingcheng has already got his head into the quilt, he doesn't want to go out.

Nan Yi was pulling people out, so he didn't care too much.

Nan Yi was still saying, "We use ordinary firewood to burn the kang, which saves money. Master Shao said that ordinary people can't afford expensive smokeless wood, so it's good to have a kang."

A group of students have bright eyes. They not only want a kang, but also a fire stool.

This is what winter should be like.

Originally, Mo Shaoheng was going to ask Zhao Jingcheng and Fan Shen to take back the bees that had divided their nests, but after thinking about it, he decided to go to their house tomorrow to help secure the beehives.

Originally, there were not many bees, so it would be a pity if we lost them.

When this group of students left, they were still a little bit reluctant, reluctant to part with the warm fire bench and kang.

On the second day, Mo Shaoheng asked someone to carry the beehives to Zhao Jingcheng's house in Zhenxi Prince's Mansion as agreed.

Unexpectedly, a group of students were there, "We also have to learn how to keep bees."

Mostly to watch the fun.

Very lively.

As Zhao Jingcheng's teacher, Mo Shaoheng came to the mansion, so naturally Princess Yi would not neglect her.

Mo Shaoheng said a few words politely, and then began to install beehives for Zhao Jingcheng.

People from Zhenxi Palace: "..."

They heard from their little prince yesterday that they wanted to raise bees. They were surprised for a long time, and they couldn't believe it. Bees can be raised at home?

But their little son spoke convincingly, and said that he had already eaten honey produced by domestic bees, which was very delicious and had a floral fragrance.

They were stunned for a while, even Princess Yi couldn't believe it.

Unexpectedly, now Mo Shaoheng came directly to install the bee box.

Mo Shaoheng looked around in Zhao Jingcheng's yard, and then chose a corner of the eaves where the light was good and would not be exposed to the cold wind and sun. He had someone nail a wooden frame with wood, and then placed the beehives on it.

Mo Shaoheng said to Zhao Jingcheng, "The queen bee inside is trapped in the small bamboo cage, don't let it go."

"Usually don't let people disturb them too much."

"Bees don't come out of their nests in winter, and they tend to starve to death. You have to feed them some sugar juice. They eat very little, so don't put too much at a time. When the weather gets warmer, they will fly out to collect honey."

Inside the beehive are bees from Mo Shaoheng's nest, not too many, but after they settle down, the speed at which they reproduce is astonishing.

Zhao Jingcheng was overjoyed, as if he had obtained some rare treasure.

Zhao Jingcheng really likes to raise these small animals, such as... the desert eagle king from before.

Another example is a big rooster in Zhao Jingcheng's yard.

At first, Mo Shaoheng wondered why such a big rooster was raised in the yard.

It was like hearing Zhao Jingcheng tell Nan Yi a legendary story, "I bought this big rooster when I was visiting Dongshi, and it was still an egg at that time."

"Really, that person was selling it on the ground, but when I passed by, a chick popped out of the egg."

"I just bought it back. Do you think it's magical?"

A group of students were stunned.

Zhao Jingcheng really kept his big rooster as a pet. Looking at its majestic and majestic appearance, you can tell that it usually eats well.

After installing the beehives for Zhao Jingcheng, Mo Shaoheng had to go to Fan Shen'an.

The people of Zhenxi Palace looked at an extra beehive in the yard: "..."

Bees have really started to be kept in their mansion, it feels... so strange.

When Mo Shaoheng went to the Shangyi Doctor's Mansion, everyone had similar expressions.

Mo Shaoheng met his teacher Fan Kou and said, "Honey is good for your health. When the honey is produced, the teacher might as well try the taste."

Fan Kou looked at the beehive under the eaves, and was taken aback for a while.

In the following days, Pan Kang's business also began to accept orders, and I heard that several orders have been arranged.

After these students went back, they didn't brag about the benefits of the fire bench and fire kang.

"It's warm and there's no smoke. It's much better than the brazier. The brazier has to have a window at night, and the cold wind is blowing."

"Besides, it's fine to burn ordinary firewood, and it can save money on buying smokeless wood."

"You don't know, the group of fire stools in the hall of Zhenbei Palace look so beautiful."

Make adults dizzy.

"If you don't believe me, go to Zhenbei Prince's Mansion to have a look, anyway, my mother visits everywhere every day."

A group of elders: "..."

It sounds like there is such a thing.

Is this heated kang fire stool really so magical and so good?

I can't help but find an excuse to go to Zhenbei Wangfu and walk around the door.

This time, I stayed in the hall and sat on the fire bench, which is decent.

After I went back, I arranged it without saying a word.

Thinking about it in the future, it would be decent and comfortable to chat with noble ladies.

Moreover, the fire stool and fire kang are really good, and life can become much more comfortable.

The fire bench and heated kang quietly became popular among the nobles.

In fact, in addition to the nobles, news began to spread among the market.

Because Mo Shaoheng also installed a fire bench for the small shopkeeper's warehouse.

Because the small shopkeepers sleep on bunk beds, the kang is definitely not suitable.

If you install a circle of fire stools, the whole room will be much warmer at night, and it will be warm if you sit on it.

The people of Liangjing are already very familiar with these little peddlers. Looking at the little peddlers, they would ask a few words with a smile from time to time, whether the prince treats them well or not.

No, Mo Shaoheng saw that the weather was getting cooler, but the business had to continue, a group of small shopkeepers ran outside every day, and made socks and gloves for them.

In winter, there is a big difference between wearing socks and gloves and not wearing them.

Everyone has seen socks, but gloves are rare.

People in Liangjing couldn't help asking a few questions.

Douzi laughed heartily, and answered other people's doubts, "This is a glove. Our prince said that we get cold when running outside, so we made it specially for us. It keeps you warm when you wear it, and it's not cold at all."

"Our son can't wait to wrap us all in clothes. He is always afraid that we will freeze. It will be good for us."

Smile very happily.

The people also sighed, "You guys are lucky too. When I saw those beggars spend the winter, it was really pitiful."

Douzi nodded, how could he not know, if the prince hadn't taken them in, he knew what they would be like now, that's why the gloves are extra warm, and the heart is warm.

Douzi continued, "Not only the gloves, Shizi also installed a fire bench in our room, which keeps us warm."

"I slept on the fire bench with the quilt in my arms last night."

He was small enough to sleep on it.

A little shy, "I just slept so well that I rolled off the fire bench in the middle of the night, scaring a lot of people."

Fire stool?

warm?

Everyone couldn't help but wonder, what is this?

Douzi quickly explained that Shizi was in the business of taking over the fire stool and kang, and their small shopkeepers also knew about it. More people had to know so that Shizi could make more money.

Unknowingly, the list of Pan Kang's became more and more.

Because it is just when winter is coming, when everyone pays most attention to the issue of keeping warm, the news is constantly spreading.

It also caused some unexpected problems.

For example, the price of firewood in Liangjing has started to increase.

But it's a small problem. The demand for firewood is high, so woodcutters outside the city will naturally sell more firewood, and people from farther places will also carry firewood to sell.

As long as the market is not suddenly and destructively disrupted, the relationship between supply and demand can be adjusted naturally to achieve a balance.

Liangjing has a large population, and the number of woodcutters who provide firewood for Liangjing can be imagined. In ancient times, woodcutters were a profession that could support their families, especially woodcutters near towns.

It can also be regarded as promoting consumption and stimulating domestic demand.

Recently, Zhao Jingcheng and other students have lived a decent life.

In the Imperial College, no one troubles them now.

At home, there is a heated kang with fire stools. If you don’t go out, you don’t know that winter is coming. Now at home, they like the fire stools and heated kang very much.

They said goodbye to the smoky fire of the brazier and the expensive smokeless wood. Speaking of which, they saved a lot of money in addition to spending some money on the stove and kang.

Now being instigated by these students, they also want to cover their fire stools with beautiful cloth covers and put pillows embroidered with beautiful patterns.

A fire stool without beautiful pillows is not a perfect fire stool. I heard that the business of embroiderers in the city has improved.

"It would be even better if... the masters of the Imperial College didn't find us annoying." Several students of Zhao Jingcheng were shaking their heads and discussing in annoyance.

This day is comfortable, and I want to make it better.

But, their grades are poor, and the gentlemen get a headache when they see them, so there is really nothing to do about it.

"That's right, the last time my husband went to file a complaint again, he was stuck outside the Golden Palace waiting for my lord to file a complaint. My ass was blown apart under the watchful eyes of everyone."

Mo Shaoheng listened to these eleven or twelve teenagers talking about their self-conceived worries, which was also funny.

They don't have the troubles of adults, but they also have their own worries.

This is the young people. When they grow up, when they think of these things, they may smile knowingly.

Mo Shaoheng thought for a while, and now it is approaching the end of the year.

He said, "Do you want to make a good impression on your husband? Let your husband punish you less in the future?"

A group of students immediately became interested, "However, gentlemen are too old-fashioned. Our grades are so poor. They probably find it an eyesore. How can we make a good impression on them?"

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, he was quite self-aware.

I have to say that most gentlemen naturally like good students a little bit more. People are not sages, they all have likings, especially this group of students are really noisy and always make those old gentlemen angry.

Mo Shaoheng said, "It's almost the end of the new year, so I just prepared some gifts for my teacher, how about you come along too?"

Zhao Jingcheng: "Shall we go buy some gifts?"

Mo Shaoheng flicked Zhao Jingcheng's forehead. The gentlemen in ancient times were all families of character. No matter how poor they are, the character and arrogance of a scholar cannot be slandered.

Scholars follow the way of the sages, honoring their reputation and character.

If Zhao Jingcheng really buys gifts in big bags and gives them gifts.

Oh, I'm afraid I'm going to be typed out directly.

Mo Shaoheng said, "When a student gives a teacher a gift, the most important thing is to pay attention to it, don't let it be tacky."

Giving gifts is a matter of sophistication, but it is not good if it is mixed with interests.

"I'm going to make some red bean pastries myself, and you can also learn."

The bean rice among the three staple foods in Beiliang is red bean, which can be used just right.

The reason for making red bean cake is not because there is no way to sell ice cream in winter, and Mo Shaoheng happened to add a product.

Red bean cake is not difficult to make.

You need a good mould, follow the steps, and you can make a beautiful red bean cake.

A group of students learned happily.

"Look at what I made, it looks really good."

The New Year is approaching, and the atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger.

The streets are full of festive sounds.

Of course, there are some exceptions, such as some poor scholarly families, they like to be clean, and don’t like those who make a fuss, so this is an environment for studying.

But this year, I'm afraid it won't be clean.

For example, the mansion of Mr. Zhishan.

Mr. Zhishan's mansion has been in decline, and few people come to the door. It is estimated that only the people nearby know that there is a teacher from the Imperial College living here.

On this day, a carriage stopped in front of the mansion, and a fat man in brocade clothes jumped out of the carriage, holding a beautiful food box in his hand.

Everyone couldn't help being a little curious, seeing that this carriage must be from a family of great meritorious service, why did it come to this remote alley?

I saw the little fat man knock on the door.

It was an old housekeeper who came out. After saying a few words, the old housekeeper seemed a little excited, and then ran into the house, yelling something while running.

What's going on here?

The spectators couldn't help getting closer.

Mr. Zhishan also came out wondering, only to hear the old butler say that it was his student who came.

He was still wondering, his student?

Didn't you see him in the Imperial College on weekdays, why did you come to his house?

As soon as he came out, he saw Zhao Jingcheng peering inside with his neck curled up.

Zhao Jingcheng hurriedly passed the food box in his hand to Mr. Zhishan.

Mr. Zhishan is too old-fashioned, and he was so angry that he would blow his beard and stare every now and then, and he almost lay down on the ground several times.

The key point is that the old man doesn't care about his identity at all, and when it's time to train, he is also afraid.

Zhao Jingcheng said loudly, "Sir, the New Year is approaching, this is a gift from the students."

Mr. Zhishan frowned.

Zhao Jingcheng hurriedly said, "I made the red bean cake myself. This is the first time I have learned how to make it. I don't know if I can eat it."

After finishing speaking, he ran away with his head buried, a little shy.

Mr. Zhishan was taken aback, and opened the food box to take a look. It was indeed a pastry made of ordinary red beans, and it looked pretty good.

Looking at Zhao Jingcheng again, the little fat man climbed into the carriage and ran very fast.

Mr. Zhishan opened his mouth, but didn't react for a while.

At this time, the spectators had gathered around.

"That was the old man's student just now? It's a New Year's gift, right?"

Mr. Zhishan replied, "It's not a thank you ceremony, it's just that the students made some snacks for me to taste."

"It's the first time I'm doing it, and I don't know if I can import it."

Everyone: "..."

The old butler next to him was grinning from ear to ear, their master.

Someone said, "This pastry looks pretty good, it looks like it has been put into thought."

"I looked at the student just now as if he was the young son of Prince Zhenxi's mansion?"

"I heard that this little prince is very naughty. In my Liangjing, everyone knows everyone, but how I look at it, I respect the teacher."

"That's right, which family's children would personally make cakes for Mr., at least they are polite."

"The old gentleman is really good at teaching. I heard that this little prince was angry with many gentlemen in the Imperial College, but, I think the little prince was very well-behaved in front of the old gentleman just now."

Mr. Zhishan: "..."

Before he could speak, one carriage after another drove in.

Those who came down were all teenagers who seemed to have extraordinary family backgrounds.

Look at each of these signs, holding a guqin in his arms, very elegant, like a little celebrity.

The neighbors were dumbfounded.

They only knew that their neighbor was an old gentleman who taught in the Imperial College, and he had a certain style of writing. They didn't expect that he was so respected by the students, and the teachers were all princes and grandchildren.

It's really amazing, this old gentleman usually keeps a low profile.

Mr. Zhishan: "..."

If it weren't for the fact that the students in this school were so angry that they left a lot of teachers, it wouldn't be his turn to teach such a down-and-out gentleman.

More and more students came one after another, the door of the mansion was closed and opened for a while, and the threshold was about to be trampled.

The people around were also amazed.

This must be a respected old gentleman, look how respected by the students.

Some people have bright eyes. They have such an old man as a neighbor. Usually they have to take their children to "touch porcelain" in front of the old man. They can't even listen to the old man's words.
