farming in ancient times

When Butcher Gao heard Xiao Er's words, his heart skipped a beat, and when he looked up, he saw Fang Zheng and Ren Yuan standing behind Xiao Er's body trying to wink at him.

"I just don't know. After listening to people say these things, I know more than you." Gao Butcher's thoughts changed sharply, "Did you forget that I stayed on the battlefield for seven years and went to such places. I still came back from Kyoto."

"That's right. Then?" Xiao Er didn't know anything about this world, let alone whether the county magistrate was a magistrate or a county magistrate, so he asked sincerely, "What should I do?"

Butcher Gao stared at Xiao Er carefully, and saw that his eyes were full of eagerness to know whether the car could be exchanged for money, so he let out a deep breath, "When I was fighting, and on the way back from Kyoto, I never heard of it. People said that you can still sow seeds when you plant in spring. If you hand over this columbine cart to the county magistrate, and the adults above ask the county magistrate how he got this columbine cart, the magistrate will definitely hand it over to you.”

"I can teach Bai Fu first, and let the county magistrate take Bai Fu there, can't it?" Xiao Er asked anxiously.

"Do you think Bai Fu knows how you made your car?" Butcher Gao shook his head while speaking, "You taught Bai Fu how to install a car, if the adults above let Bai Fu make another one on the spot , does he know what to do?

Even I didn't understand what you did, let alone Bai Fu.Turn around and the county magistrate will report this car to the adults above. If that person is greedy for meritorious service, will he take your car down again? "

"This, shouldn't it be?" As he said that, Xiao Er was already worried, and he had two official words, so he had to let others say it.

"Xiao Er, Brother Gao is right." Fangzheng actually wanted to ask, how did you, a farmer, make such a troublesome columbine? Seeing the general didn't even ask, Fangzheng didn't worry about it.

He just said, "Ordinary people say that it is in vain to touch people's hearts. Your car is something that benefits the people all over the world. Whoever presents your car will be rewarded by the court."

"Hey, Fangzheng, don't say it's amazing." Xiao Er smiled embarrassedly, "I am just a sowing cart, made of a few pieces of wood. Anyone who cares will understand it after thinking about it."

"But, apart from you, I haven't heard of anyone getting the car out." Fangzheng asked with a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiaoer no longer doubted how the general knew how many things he had, "Brother Gao, what do you want?" Is there a way?"

"Xiao Er, do you believe me?" Butcher Gao asked, staring at Xiao Er.

"I believe it, of course I believe you!" Xiao Er didn't know why he suddenly didn't dare to look into Butcher Gao's eyes, and his ears became hot when he saw his dark eyes.

Xiao Er simply lowered his head, thinking that Butcher Gao lived in his own house every day, if he dared to play tricks on him, he would get up in the middle of the night and cut off the roots of his descendants, and let him turn around because of his car. , he can't enjoy it in his life.

Butcher Gao didn't know that Xiao Er was eyeing his little brother, he just felt that Xiao Er's heart was really the same as his.Just say, "When I was fighting outside, I knew a general who was not too big or too young. I helped that general block a knife once. If you sent your car to his house under my name, he probably wouldn't give it to you. ignorant."

"Wait a minute, where is that general?" Xiao Er hurriedly asked.

"It's in the capital now." Butcher Gao was afraid that Xiao Er's sloppy mind would think of something wrong, "Don't worry, he has seen Ren Yuan and Fang Zheng, and he will ask Ren Yuan and Fang Zheng to go there later, maybe when the time comes In addition, you can also get back the reward money that the court gave you."

"So good!" Xiao Er was shocked, and his eyes lit up when he saw Butcher Gao.He knew that this butcher was not an easy one. How could an ordinary veteran be able to afford silk, and how could the county magistrate go to Wangjia Village to find him as soon as he went to find him.

It turned out that there was someone above the butcher, who was also the general's savior.

"Xiao Er, don't worry about it now." Butcher Gao saw Xiao Er's big flexible eyes gleaming, and said sweetly, "Fang Zheng, you and Ren Yuan should pack up quickly. Tomorrow, No, I will go to Kyoto later!"

"Hey, don't be in a hurry!" The butcher was so straightforward in his work.

"Why don't you use it?" Butcher Gao said, "If it rains tomorrow, the wheat can be planted in two days."

"I'll be fine two days later." Xiao Er said.

"Xiaoer, that's not what you said." Seeing the general raising his eyebrows at him, Fangzheng said, "Ren Yuan and I went to Kyoto to deliver your car to someone's house, and they will send this car to the court. , and then the emperor can distribute the columbine chariots down below. Do the math, this delay will be over."

"That's right." Xiao Er thought carefully, "Then I'll trouble you. Turn around, wait for you to come back, you all go to my house for dinner, and I'll cook something delicious for you."

"Xiaoer, I'm still here." Butcher Gao said hastily.

"No one will miss you." Xiaoer grinned, "By the way, should I take this car apart so you can take it away?"

"No need!" Fangzheng looked at Xiao Er at this moment, his previous disapproval and admiration were gone, "You dismantled this car, Ren Yuan and I can't put it back together. .”

"Hey. By the way, how are you going?" Xiaoer asked again, "Do you want me to rent a carriage?"

"No, no!" Ren Yuan waved his hand, "There are three horses in the yard of our house, we just need to ride them."

"Horse? Live?" Xiao Erguai called out.

Ever since he wanted to buy a cow, Xiaoer went to the livestock market a few times. There was no horse in any market. By mistake, there was not a single horse in Guanjiang Town. There were three horses hidden in the butcher's yard. .. He, did he hear correctly?

"Of course." Butcher Gao said, "Ren Yuan, take Xiaoer to have a look."

Once Ren Yuan heard this and looked at his legs, he knew that the general had something to say to Fang Zheng.Without waiting for Xiao Er to speak, he grabbed Xiao Er's arm and dragged him into the yard with a limping motion.

As soon as Xiao Er went out, Butcher Gao said, "Fangzheng, I will ask Xiao Er to draw the shape of the columbine cart and the curved plow later. When you arrive in the capital, you can go directly to the palace. You must not show Xiao Er, just say I saw this when I was playing in the country."

"Why?" Fangzheng asked strangely.

"Don't look at how smart Xiaoer is, he still knows how to live. Once he arrives in the capital, he can't even compare with the three-year-old son of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Gao Butcher said, "I don't want Xiaoer to be fooled by them. Not a single bone remains."

"General, if the emperor hears this, you will say how sad he is as an old man." Fangzheng looked helplessly at Butcher Gao, "If people who don't know hear what you say, they will think that the people in Kyoto are all hungry wolves. Tiger."

"Almost!" Butcher Gao nodded in agreement.

Fangzheng raised his forehead, "By the way, why didn't you directly reveal your identity to Xiao Er earlier?"

"Why should I tell him, can it be said, Xiao Er, the butcher who lives in your house is actually General Pingdi, a third-rank official, don't you be afraid that the car will not be exchanged for money?" Butcher Gao said She gave him a white look, "Are you sure I said that, Xiao Er won't throw me out with a broom?"

"Just pretend I didn't say it." He just thought that the general would be kicked out, so that their family could go back to the capital.Seeing his stare, Fangzheng didn't dare to say anything more, "Then shall we go and see the Marshal?"

"Go." Butcher Gao thought for a moment, "By the way, I'll write two letters first."

Fang Zheng waited for Butcher Gao to finish writing the letter before going out. When he entered the yard, he saw Xiao Er riding on the general's big horse, and shouted loudly, "Hey, Xiao Er, get down quickly!"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Er touched the horse's head and ear, Fangzheng followed his movements, his heart twitched again and again, seeing Ren Yuan crossing his arms and watching Xiao Er playing around on the horse, "Why do you let me He goes up!"

"I can't ride Butcher Gao's horse?" Xiao Er stared.

"No, this green horse has a very violent temper, no one can touch it!" Fangzheng paused as he spoke, "That's not right, you, what are you doing up there?"

"He went up as soon as he lifted his legs." Ren Yuan saw Fangzheng's small eyes widening to catch up with the bull's eyes, "This beast is definitely not awake today. When I usually feed it, it hums to me. Chirping!"

As soon as Ren Yuan's words fell, Qing Congma snorted disdainfully at him.Xiao Er suddenly laughed.

Just as Fang Zheng was about to speak, Butcher Gao walked over.Fangzheng and Ren Yuan looked at him at the same time, only to see Butcher Gao walked up to the horse and stroked the horse's head, then lay down next to the horse's ear and whispered something, the proud big horse just bent its legs like that.

Xiao Er couldn't sit still all of a sudden, "Butcher, you, have you become a smart horse?"

"This horse has been with me for three years, and you can tell whether it's me by the sound of its footsteps." Gao Butcher proudly helped Xiao Er down, and Fang Zheng said, "Go and pack your things."

"Butcher, why don't you ask Fangzheng to go there with the cart and meet that general?" Xiao Er looked back at the horse, thinking silently, hesitating the green horse with tassels and golden saddle.look at

Butcher Gao's eyes darkened, and he asked with an ordinary face, "You've been back for a long time, and now you're entrusting someone to do something, don't you want to send something?"

"Send what?" Butcher Gao asked stupidly.

"Gifts or something?" Xiaoer said, "Although you are someone's savior, we can't use him for nothing."

After Xiao Er finished speaking, Butcher Gao's brows tightened, and after a while, Xiao Er's heart relaxed following his brows.

"That's right. If Fangzheng goes there empty-handed, he will definitely scold me." Butcher Gao felt a headache when he thought of the hot-tempered Generalissimo, "But, what should I give?"

"You haven't given anyone a gift?" Xiaoer looked at him suspiciously, and when Butcher Gao nodded, he immediately cursed secretly. No wonder he became the general's savior and was sent back to his ancestral home. It turned out that this kid was too good at doing things. Officer.

Xiaoer thought about it carefully, "Our Guanjiang town is near the sea, so let's send some seafood. By the way, there are also dried bamboo shoots. I heard people say that Kyoto is in the north, and there are no bamboo shoots there."

"It's not that there are no ones over there, but there are very few over there." Butcher Gao reminded Xiaoer, "Shall we go back to your house now?"

"Of course!" Thinking that the columbine cart could be exchanged for big silver, Zhuya suddenly became the same as the "yellow grass" that Butcher Gao said earlier in Xiaoer's mind.

But he only cares about being happy, but he doesn't know that in the yard of his house, his grandfather and elder brother have put on airs to protect him for a long time.
