Crossing the Tang Dynasty to farm

Tang Pin's eyes lit up, and various ways to eat fish flashed through his mind. He was lying on the riverside drooling, and A Niu took Tang Pin, who was about to fall into the water, to the side. He also stared at the fish in the river.

As for A Niu, who was still relatively calm and not lost by the fish, he asked, "What should I do next?"

"Everyone stand alone in every corner, don't stay too far away, and stare all around. Many beasts are afraid of being stared at by humans. If a tiger is stared at by humans, he will not dare to attack us. Also, how many more animals will be born? The fire, the officers and soldiers on guard are holding torches, if there are beasts approaching, use the torches to chase them away, don't be afraid, the more you are afraid, the more beasts will attack us." Tang Pin took out a bag from the luggage, and the bag contained all It's herbs.

"The river below is blocked by mud and rocks. Don't let the fish run away. Be careful when you go down the river. Don't take off your shoes and clothes. Go to a shallow place." Tang Pin began to find a rock upstream and squatted on it. , Put the herbs in the water and wash them. This is the method used by the old people in the countryside, and it can only be used where conditions are feasible.

This kind of herbal medicine is specially used to poison fish, and it has a drug effect. On the way here, Tang Pin specially asked the officers and soldiers to find it. This pack of herbal medicine can stun the fish in this section of the river. Downstream, The officers and soldiers held hands and blocked a channel in the river. When the water surface rose through this channel, the water would flow away from the channel, but the fish could not swim through it. If a few fish jumped up, they would be caught by the officers and soldiers. live.

The herbs flowed continuously downstream, and the fish affected by the herbs began to rush in the water. After a while, the fish all turned their white bellies and surfaced. A group of officers and soldiers were responsible for picking up the fish on the water surface, On the shore, Ah Nian kept an eye on what was going on in the woods, and the official took on the responsibility of protecting Tang Pin and stood by.

For half a day, the fish that kept swimming down from the upstream were stunned. If the dose was too much, the fish would die, but the fish were not poisonous after eating it. Knowing the name of the herb and only remembering the appearance of the herb, if it is placed in a larger river or a lake with a lot of water, it will not be useful, and the effect of the medicine will not achieve this effect.

There are a lot of fish here, and no one has ever caught them before. Just like the amazing beasts in the woods, you can see footprints in three steps, and small animals in five steps. It can be said that throwing a stone can suck a wild animal. Animals, thousands of catties of fish were piled there, Tang Pin was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back, A Niu picked Tang Pin up, this thin and thin boy has magical abilities.

The next step is to process these fish. Tang Pin asked the officers and soldiers to hang up the fish and dry them into dried fish. Of course, they would drink fish soup for dinner, a large bowl of delicious fish broth. What they ate was heart-warming, stomach-heating, and body-heating. I am satisfied with such a harvest, looking at the fish meat hanging on the branches, I am laughing in my dreams.

Tang Pin also wants to teach Ah Niu how to catch wild animals. If the animals here are not eaten up, they are almost full. Sooner or later, they will run out to eat the villagers. Ah Niu has a certain understanding of the method Tang Pin said. In the village, Tang Pin did not do this less often. Now the main thing is to teach the officers and soldiers how to catch animals. Before going to sleep, the rope was made into a trap and placed around the big guy. More than a dozen people took turns to watch the night. As long as there is any movement, they will Be vigilant, the torches and fires of the officers and soldiers of the night watch cannot be extinguished, and a little more medicated oil should be applied to the body, and those who sleep should not sleep too hard, and have the intention of running for their lives at any time.

It was only early in the morning, and Tang Pin was woken up by officers and soldiers. Everyone was watching around a lot of animals, and they were discussing which kind of animal meat was delicious. It seems that we had gained a lot last night, and the traps were all trampled by animals. After that, the unlucky animals still don't understand the power and cruelty of humans, they are simply very curious about the humans who suddenly entered their territory.

This is not the time for Tang Pin to sympathize with these animals. When humans didn’t eat them, they heard that they even ate human flesh, and I saw it in history books. I don’t know if there is Tang Pin here, and I don’t want to know. food, these things will not happen.

The author has something to say:

☆、Add more than 1000 mouths to eat

A lot of animals can be caught by simply digging pits and tying ropes. No trap is empty. They plan to stay here for a few days and move forward slowly. The officers and soldiers are stimulated by the meat in front of them. Crazy, no matter whether it is animals on the ground or fish in the river, they will not let go, and they catch food from the rivers and mountains without knowing the exhaustion every day.

The most important thing was not found, and Tang Pin was not in the mood to stay and catch animals with them. Tang Pin was very interested in the grain value in the south, and this time he came to harvest rice. The food is good, but you can't take too much back home. Even if it is dried, the officers and soldiers eat three meals a day until they roll their eyes, and they can't consume the speed of their capture.

A Niu saw Tang Pin's troubles, and discussed with the official: "Our purpose of coming here has not been achieved. Now that we have enough to eat, we should hurry up and find food. There are too many dried meat, just us, Can't move back."

The official has not yet recovered from eating meat. When Ah Niu said this, his face turned red, he cleared his throat and said: "That is, that is, we are lost, and our minds are confused by the little grain in front of us. Let’s go arrange and set off now, take what you can bring, and leave what you can’t take, if we come back, the food is still there, we will take it back.”

Still reluctant to part with the hard-earned food, the officers and soldiers gritted their teeth and carried all the food on their shoulders. The food they brought had long been thrown on the ground. No one cared about the food. Now they only care about holding it in their hands. The food, these are all meat, eating a meal of meat is equivalent to eating a day's grain.

The temperature slowly dropped, Tang Pin counted the time, it was almost winter, he had to hurry back and walk along the water flow, within three or four days, Tang Pin was pleasantly surprised to find rice, and all the seedlings fell on the ground After entering the field, Tang Pin opened his back bag and harvested food crazily in the field. The officers and soldiers didn't understand what it was, but seeing Tang Pin being so crazy, they also went to the field to help. That night, Tang Pin gave the big guys I made a meal of rice, and the delicious rice made everyone's stomach round.

"This kind of rice is called rice, and its yield is higher than that of wheat. Where we live, we can plant it once in spring, and after the harvest, we can plant wheat again in the field. In rainy places, we can plant it twice or three times a year. As long as we plant it Well, we won’t be afraid of running out of food in the winter, we’ll go back tomorrow and let the magistrates who are waiting outside come here to collect the food, and we’ll share the food with him equally, and let him pile it up and plant it in the local area.” Tang Pin After eating the rice, I added another bowl, a spoonful of broth and a few wild vegetables. This was the best meal Tang Pin had eaten since he came here.

The official nodded quickly, rubbed the rice in his hand, stared at it like a baby, and looked at the ground all over the ground, wishing to bring the army to collect the grain, which is life-saving, the grain gifted to them by God, No one knows how they fell to the ground. This is God punishing them, punishing their ignorance with hunger.

After sleeping until midnight, the official took the officers and soldiers to prepare to go back. Tang Pin struggled to get up, yelling, and leaned his head on A Niu's body. No one will think that Tang Pin is useless. Those who can find this grain are gods. They have never known that such a high-yield grain can be grown in the field. They still hide sweet potatoes in their homes. Harvesting, the sweet potatoes dug out from the field made their whole family hug and cry for a long time. The treasures that the official master got from Fugui Village were all given to them first. They were all real treasures, food gifted to them by God.

When they go out, they are much faster. The officers and soldiers are carrying heavy food, but they are smiling at the corners of their mouths, and their hearts are at ease, as if they have no weight. They are walking very fast, and they are anxious to go out to find someone to collect food, whether it is fish or animals. , or the rice that Tang Pin said was food they had never had before, Tang Pin did not lie to them, the food here is really enough for them to eat in the coming spring.

After walking for ten days, I went outside. The magistrate is a middle-aged man in his 40s with a fat belly. He is not a good official at first glance. When everyone is struggling with hunger, a small magistrate can still eat Such a situation shows how difficult life is for the people here.

The official first saluted the magistrate, stuffed dried fish and meat into the magistrate’s hand, everyone was smiling, now it’s easy to talk, the official said: “My lord, we risked our lives to go into the woods and found a lot of things. The few good things, if all these things are moved out, sir, do you know what will happen? Not only the people here, but even the people in this official’s place can have food this winter. When the number of starvation deaths is reported next spring, It is when your lord makes meritorious deeds, your lord must not refuse such a good deed."

The magistrate stared at the dried meat and grain they brought out, his eyes were so narrow that he couldn't see, shaking the fat on his belly, he smiled and said: "I'm sorry, we are both magistrates with the same status, so we can discuss things. This official will definitely help, risking his life to find enough food for the people to survive the winter, the higher-level officials have sent a message to ask this official to cooperate, this official has never been in, and maybe the adults will take them in. "

"That's natural. As long as your lord helps, we'll let you lead the way. I don't know how many people your lord plans to go in, so I can make preparations." The official is very good at following the words of the magistrate.

The magistrate stretched out his fat palm and a stubby finger, and the magistrate carefully asked, "100 people?"

"No, it's 1000 people. This official wants to cooperate to the greatest extent. When you go in, I have prepared 1000 people to come out and wait to go in at any time." The magistrate smiled and pointed to the 1000 people behind him.

Tang Pin really wanted to open his mouth to curse, this is cooperation, the people he brought were all ordinary people, wearing the most ragged clothes, as thin as bones, and many of them were older, Tang Pin was not here 1000 Inside, I saw an officer and soldier.

The official was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted: "These 1000 people are enough to bring back food. I thank you sir here."

A Niu squinted his eyes, scanned around these people, and sent the magistrate away. The magistrate took half of the dried meat and grain they brought out. On the land, if there is suffering, it can only knock down teeth and swallow blood.

As soon as the magistrate left, the lord official immediately put away his smile and turned around in a rage. Tang Pin had already started arranging the 1000 people. First of all, the most important thing was to feed them. Don't starve to death within two days. They are on the way, and now they have people, and they can't carry much food alone, and there are tens of thousands of people waiting to eat this food.

Tang Pin suggested to get some wooden carts to pull them. It is best to drive a small road, so that the transportation will be much more convenient. The trees blocking the road will be sloughed off. The trees are just used to make carts. There are more than 1000 people, and they will be busy soon. Don't look at these people who are thin to the bone, it may be because they are full. They work really hard. In terms of food, Tang Pin requires a good meal. Their time is limited, so they can't make mistakes on them.

A Niu wants to lead them to work together. They have been farmers all their lives, they only know how to do things, but they don't know how to do it. A Niu has a very good memory. As long as Tang Pin said it, or watched others do it, he Tang Pin is very satisfied with the ability to memorize it and make it perfectly. It's just that there are too few of them. Until now, I have only seen this one.

The officials are busy going in and out. They have to manage local officials at the top, and people at the bottom. The food shipped out can’t just be piled up on the main road at this intersection. Someone has to come and watch to ensure that the local officials will not touch it. After that, the common people who lived here were required to watch over them, and they would all get enough food when the time came.

They need to purchase salt, and they have to exchange the dried meat in their hands for copper coins or clothes. The magistrate gave it to 1000 people, and they don’t have many cloths on them. If they go into the woods, can they come back alive?Clothes must be worn, and linen is very good. Everyone wears linen. Tang Pin felt a pain in his chest when he counted the income and expenses of the past few days. The income was not as fast as the expenditure. White is busy.

The design of ancient wooden carts is very inhumane. Not to mention the effort, it is also very troublesome and heavy. It requires two people to stack it. After the improvement of Tang Pin, it is much more convenient. Each person has one cart, as long as the road can pass. It is not a problem to transport things.

The old man came back angrily, and said angrily, "The magistrates here are too disgraceful, the common people are starved to the side of the road, and they have to collect taxes, and the food given to the magistrates has become his own. Food, officers and soldiers eat fat intestines and brains. I heard people say that there are eight wives in the magistrate's family, and the son is too shameful. He bullies the people everywhere and robs good women. The official just wants him to cooperate. Just reach out to ask for benefits from this official, such an official is really unfortunate for the people."

"There is another benefit, is this considered to be cooperating with us? What kind of manpower is given here? This is to stuff the hungry people here. If they die, it will be counted on us. If there is credit, the magistrate will be the one, and the emperor will not care. Do you care?" Tang Pin said angrily.

"The Emperor Shan Gao is far away. He can't control this side. It is inevitable that such an official will appear. Now we have bumped into him. I don't know how to embarrass us this time." A Niu narrowed his eyes dangerously, and his voice was a bit gritted. There is still work to do, and the magistrate is useless, and he still needs it now, otherwise, Ah Niu really wants to go and kill him tonight.

The official patted the big tree beside him heavily and said: "After returning, I will write a letter to the emperor. Such an official cannot be kept."

When the official was in deep grief, Tang Pin secretly whispered to A Niu: "Can we transport the grain back this time?"

A Niu hugged his chest and said: "It's hard to say, the magistrate only wants half of it now. When we ship out all the grain and wild meat, it's hard to guarantee that the magistrate won't be jealous. Maybe he won't dare to go it alone. If we don't ask for [-]% or [-]%, we may go away." If you don’t come out of this place, if you can collect money so blatantly, there must be a backer, and we will be in trouble this time.”

"It's hard to find food, and the local officials will squeeze it out. Seventy to eighty percent of it will be taken away. How can there be enough food left? There are tens of thousands of people who are waiting for the food to survive the winter. Do you want to watch them starve?" Die?" Tang Pin was very annoyed, he never thought that in this simple and simple era of ancient times, a small official would dare to do such a thing, didn't he say that the current Emperor Li Shiming is good at governing the country?How well written in the history books, how could such a thing happen.

The young official was still very motivated, and quickly waved his sleeves and said: "The most important thing now is to transport the grain, no matter how big the grievance is, I have to endure it. If I have the ability, I really want to send these thousand people away." Take it back, stay here, don’t know how many years you can live, one official has no morals, but countless people suffer, it’s sad.”

Tang Pin was dumbfounded looking at the righteous background of the official. A thousand people, plus a big family behind the thousand people, oh my god, Tang Pin squatted on the ground, calculating whether carrying all the big trees back would be enough for the big guy satiated

The author has something to say:

☆, I am afraid of being struck by lightning when I eat dry rice

Ah Niu patted Tang Pin, it was a consolation, not only the official had this idea, but also Ah Niu, the food produced had to be transported by manpower, and it would cost thousands of people here, fearing that Tang Pin would not be able to figure it out, Ah Niu said: "Your Excellency also makes sense. If a thousand people stay here, they won't be able to survive the winter. If we leave them food, there is no guarantee that the local officials will find an excuse to take it away in a blink of an eye. The food will have to be transported back by manpower. People are also needed. Why don't you take these people with you?" Go back and let them come back after the winter."

Tang Pin raised his eyelids and said in a small voice: "Actually, it doesn't take much manpower to transport, just exchange the grain and dried wild meat for silver and bring it back. 1000 people plus wives, children, and old parents will eat a lot of grain on the way and transport it back. It's not enough for big guys to eat."

A Niu's face was a bit embarrassed, he really didn't expect to exchange it for silver, and said uncomfortably: "There are also dried wild vegetables, sauerkraut, and some corn, everyone can save some food, it will always be enough to survive the winter."

Touching his chin, Tang Pin said seriously: "It's okay to take them back, unless we can bring some more food back, and the magistrate, how are we going to pass?"

A Niu narrowed his eyes, looked at the sky and thought for a long time: "First tell the people to take them away, and they will give them enough food for the winter, but there are some things we have to listen to."

"Listen to us? What should we do?" Tang Pin asked.

"Hide it, hide the food, 1000 people, one person hides a little, that's a huge amount, and the local officials would never think that the people dare to hide the food, so that the family members of the people don't bring other belongings, but bring all the food , just give them food for their family, in this way, we don’t need to spend any food for a thousand people, and we can take them away.”

"How do we convince the magistrate? It's a big deal to suddenly take thousands of people away. I don't believe the magistrate dares to agree." Tang Pin said.

"Ask them to deliver food. It's going to snow. It's very difficult to come back on a snowy day. Many people who go out will wait for the snow to melt before going back to their hometown. This excuse is enough to convince the local officials, and it can reduce the number of local residents. He will not refuse to agree to the death toll." A Niu said confidently.

Tang Pin had nothing to say about this, he had already thought about it, what's the use of talking more?Just admit it, and they snatched the food back from the tiger's mouth. Logically speaking, everyone has a share. The food was originally obtained for the people to spend the winter, and the people who had no reason to work hard starved to death. Tang Pin began to worry , more than a few thousand people, where do you want to live?What about food, clothing and housing?

Ah Niu found the official, and after discussing with him, he began to run around to take the people away. First, he persuaded the people. This is easy to say. These days, the people regard them as gods, and the officers and soldiers lobby from them, so that the people can't wait to leave now. , The official went to the magistrate, gave some benefits, and said a lot of good things, and then the matter was settled, and A Niu was teaching the officers and soldiers how to hide the food so that it would not spoil. Simple officers, soldiers and common people , I don't know the truth about it at all, and I obey it obediently, and my mouth is also very firm, and I don't know what to say, and I don't know a word.

Tang Pin casually mentioned the issue of food and housing for the common people with A Niu and the official, and the official said indifferently: "What's so difficult about living here? Chief Hong told me a long time ago that the population of Fugui Village is too small, and There is too much work to do, so I asked this official to let more people live in. I previously considered that if people are transferred from other villages to live in, it will cause the relocation of all the people. All the people in eight villages want to live in Fugui Village , this is not feasible, now there are thousands of people living in it, it is said that in the past, Fugui Village has a large place and a small population, and everyone knows that Fugui Village is now rich, no matter how many people live in it, they can live richly."

"Grandpa asked the young people to build a lot of new houses in the village, just to prepare for the villagers who will move in in the future." A Niu said: "The business in Fugui Village is doing well, but the manpower is too busy, and the land can be reclaimed. There is a large piece of wasteland behind the village, and starting next year, we will vigorously plant potatoes and sweet potatoes, which will require a lot of manpower, and grandpa has been sighing about it, so I don’t have to worry about it now.”

Tang Pin was dumbfounded again, he had planned all his love, and was just waiting to attract more people. When will the old man become the patriarch?For a small village with less than 300 people in Fugui Village, the title of Patriarch Hong is quite famous. Mr. Guan is a good flatterer. No wonder the old man suddenly became particular about the clothes he wore, and he didn’t even have a single hair on his face. messy.

Storing food is also a technical job, you need to use your brain, you can't fool everyone's eyes with a piece of cloth, and the official and A Niu think so, Tang Pin ignores them, knocks on the wooden cart, Tang Pin thought of a good way. After entering the woods, Tang Pin asked people to transport the finished grain out. The dried wild meat and fish were dried in the forest for a few more days. The drier the better, the rice will be transported out. How much is there? No matter how much you transport, the dried meat is hidden in the interlayer of the wooden cart. Almost all the fish in the whole river have been caught, and more than 1000 people, let alone tigers, are not afraid of elephants. They should be turned into dried meat. It won't keep it alive.

I also thought about leaving some for the woods, but when I thought of the hungry eyes of tens of thousands of people behind me, Tang Pin gritted his teeth and said nothing. After passing this level first, we will consider other things. The local officials are transporting food. At that time, he walked over with a big belly and a smile. The flesh on his face pushed his squinted eyes away. The officers and soldiers guarding outside soon became the people who were ordered by the local officials. What is the lack of food in the middle? Yes, there is nothing to say, and the magistrate will not admit it.

For this reason, the official was left outside by the big guys, and he came here to stare at these people, staring at the food, even if there is a grain of rice missing, the magistrate wanted to come and get a few cars back, but was stopped by the official. Other things are easy to say, when it comes to food, the official is not sympathetic.

After staying for another [-] days, a road was opened in the woods that could pass carts smoothly. In order to get more food, A Niu and the others took the risk to go further. When he came out, the landlord official saw that it was almost done. Before the big guy came out, the magistrate asked for a share, and he wanted to take [-]% of it. The lord official was very angry, but it was useless. The carts were returned, and the officers and soldiers snatched another ten carts of grain with robbing, and then they left satisfied.

When the big guys finished transporting the last grain and came out, they saw that there was less than [-]% of the grain left outside. The official lord sat by the grain pile with his head down. When he saw everyone, his eyes were a little red, he kept sighing, and shouted Said: "This official is incompetent, I'm sorry for the people, I'm sorry for the emperor."

A Niu has no expression on his face. Even if he has guessed it long ago, he always feels uncomfortable when he sees such a situation. The people are used to being robbed by robbers. The cloth bag was waiting on the side, and all the clothes on his body were replaced with new linen, no matter how young a child could wear a piece of linen, he was in good spirits, apparently full of food.

It's useless to stay here and scold the magistrate, and it's going to snow, the weather is getting very cold, Tang Pin keeps rubbing his hands, A Niu is strong and strong, and he is used to the winter in the north, so it's warm here Yes, if I go back to Fugui Village, I'm afraid it will be snow-white long ago. I hold Tang Pin's hands silently. It's very warm in the big hands. Tang Pin reluctantly wants to pull his hands back at first, but it's really warm. , in order to prevent the hands from freezing, it is not bad to let A Niu hold them first.

Throwing children and old people into the car, everyone still refused, thinking that it was a sin to sit in the grain pile. Under A Niu's cold face, everyone sat obediently without saying a word. Offending people, it is not easy to live this life, they are all timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and dare not speak out when they are suffering.

There are thousands of vehicles, each with a small amount of grain, and the official is still scolding the magistrate. When A Niu is leaving, he turns his head coldly to look in the direction of the magistrate. In the distance, a figure flashes by, He ran towards the direction of the imperial city.

For this big harvest, the magistrates took enough rice and jerky for 5 people to spend the winter, while the rice and jerky here are only enough for 2 people. Don’t doubt, Tang Pin was also scared when he heard the data. After a jump, can this little grain feed 2 people?

And a commoner smirked and said: "Master, these are enough. I have lived for nearly sixty years, and I have never seen so much grain. This is all snowflake rice. I ate a bowl. This kind of rice is much tastier than wild vegetables, and it tastes delicious when you eat it. A family of seven only needs one bucket of rice, which is enough for two days. What kind of rice do you cook? , what to eat, you won’t be afraid of being struck by lightning.”

The officers and soldiers also said: "Sir, the food is given to the people who are about to starve to death. Many people have food this year, and if there is not enough food, they will be distributed. Every family has pickled cabbage and dried sweet potatoes. If you want to eat rice, you can take it." If you exchange them at home, everyone can still get jerky this winter, and during the Chinese New Year, if the family can take out jerky, it will be the richest year. In the past, there are not many families that have food, which is an eye-opener from heaven.”

Tang Pin really wanted to say, why don’t you say it’s my appearance, it’s a big deal with the sky, and the carts of these carts have to be thicker, there’s a reason for that, dried wild meat and dried fish are both Hidden in the middle of the cart, the magistrate didn't look carefully, took the food and ran away, for fear of being snatched back, but thinking about it makes me angry, how much of the food the magistrate took can be distributed to the hands of the people, Tang According to product estimates, [-]% of the points would be good.

Along the way, the big guys didn’t eat much, and kept them all, for fear that if they ate too much, more people would starve to death. The road was full of mountains and rivers, and they suffered a lot. Fortunately, the journey went smoothly. When I returned to Fugui Village, it was indeed snow-white. The old man held A Hua and A Cai in his hands and stood at the intersection of the main road with his neck stretched out. He stood there for several hours every day, and finally went back disappointed.

Today, the snow was so heavy that it was almost impossible to see the road ahead. The old man touched A Hua and A Cai, and the lips of the two children were about to turn purple from the cold. The old man was afraid that the child would be damaged by the cold, so he tried his best to take a look. Looking at the snowflakes falling from the sky again, I was very anxious, looking forward to Tang Pin and the others coming back soon, and thinking that the snow was too heavy, and it would be safer to come back after the winter. After Tang Pin left, the old man couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep. Immediately regretted it, Tang Pin should not be asked to get some food.

The author has something to say: For the food that I brought back with great difficulty, please collect and comment

☆, there are more women in the family

The road behind him couldn't see the footprints when he came here in the morning. The old man said to the child: "Go back, it's snowing too much today, I can't walk, maybe I'll be back tomorrow."

Just when he turned around, he vaguely heard someone's voice. The old man paused, and turned around hesitantly. There was no one behind him except for the falling white snow. The old man was worried, for fear that someone was trapped in the snow Calling for help, but worried about the child, when he was in trouble, he heard someone's voice again. This time, the children heard it clearly, and cheered, they broke free from the old man's hand and ran to the snow field. The old man was chasing after him. The two children are usually obedient, so why are they naughty and disobedient now?

After chasing for a while, I saw a large group of people, pushing carts and carrying large and small bags. Ahua and Acai were picked up, and they were laughing. The old man rubbed his snow-covered eyes , when he saw it clearly, his eyes were wet on the spot, and he ran after him, Tang Pin shouted: "Grandpa, we are back."

The words that I am back in this world are the most beautiful words. The old man didn't bother to wipe away his tears, so he took Tang Pin and A Niu to look at the whole body carefully. Looking at the face that had lost a lot of weight, the old man's eyes were moist, and he kept on She nodded and said, "Okay, just come back, they are all good children of grandpa."

Pointing to a large group of people behind him, he said, "Grandpa, these villagers will live in our Fugui Village from now on. They are the villagers of Fugui Village. We will give them some land next year. They are brought back from the south. No, the adults said that there are few people in the village, so we can add more manpower to Fugui, and we will have a big harvest next year."

The old man said: "There are too few people in Fugui Village. I have asked adults to call some villagers to come. It has been a long time and there has been no movement. What are you afraid of being poor? When you come to Fugui Village, you are a big family. As long as you are willing to work, you will have food. There is endless food, everyone, the old man is here to welcome everyone, from now on, we will all be villagers of Fugui Village."

The people all knelt down one after another. Along the way, a lot of snow fell, but they didn't see a person who died of starvation. There were villagers' houses, and they could see the smoke rising and smell the smell of food. This is a scene they have never seen. Even in a year of great harvest, they cannot see such abundance.

They believed that the official did not lie to them with big words, that the place is richer than what the official said, and the common people did nothing else, just for a bite of food. I kept rushing to the village, and I had to let the villagers know that there were villagers joining their village, and there were a lot of things to prepare.

And the food they brought back this time, the old man didn't look at it. In the eyes of the old man, nothing is more important than human life now, and nothing is more precious than staying together with a family. The people pushed the cart and followed behind. , I have a beautiful yearning for my future home.

Fugui Village became lively at this moment. Everyone in the village ran out of their warm houses to accept the thousands of new villagers with a smile. The officers and soldiers arrived soon. Patriarch, I have brought you trouble. I sent thousands of people to Fugui Village without notifying you. For patriarch Hong, if there is anything you can do with your own senses, patriarch Hong just ask."

The lord official gave the old man the highest honor. As a lord official, the common people would kneel down when they saw him, and this lord official not only didn't need to kneel down, but also spoke politely and had the same status as everyone else, old man It sounded very useful, and he waved his hand and said, "Your Excellency, you don't have to worry about the villagers in Fugui Village. We can still work and take care of our own homes. The old man also understands that the official has traveled thousands of miles to find food. One of the good officials bestowed by God to the common people may not appear in thousands of years. We are grateful even if we don’t rush, so how dare we bother your lord? During these days, the official business has been a lot of pressure, and there are still villagers in eight villages who want to Your Excellency is worried, this food has been shipped back, but how to distribute it and who to distribute it to, your Excellency still has a lot to worry about."

The official saluted again respectfully. If all the people were like the old man, he would be blessed as an official. He left behind food and dried meat, and the official left in a hurry. He is also a rare good official. On a snowy day, the one who delivered food and dried meat to the villagers, the clothes on his body looked old, but they were still warm.

The new house couldn’t fit in, so they squeezed into the villagers’ homes. The villagers in Fugui Village now have good craftsmanship. With new villagers, of course they have to show off. Serve steamed buns, sauerkraut and stewed vegetables, noodles with a little green onion Meat shreds, these villagers cried loudly while eating, regretting that they did not see the official earlier, did not come to Fugui Village earlier, this is heaven, their ancestors have never eaten such a delicacy, each ate a few mouthfuls, Xiao The child wanted to reach out for it again, but was slapped hard by the elders. The child shrank his hands and hid behind his mother, but his eyes were fixed on the food on the table. The host smiled and stuffed a piece of biscuit for the child. : "What a shrewd boy, grow up, eat more."

The children looked at their elders and then at their mothers. The mothers were moved and cried while wiping away their tears. The elders took the biscuits and were reluctant to eat them. They tore a small piece for the children, and put a large piece back on the table. In fact, the host family is very understanding. They used to be like this. If it was winter, a little food would be enough for them to eat for two days. The fire was warm and the house could not feel the cold outside. In the corner of the house, there were a few pots The long yellow and tender leeks look very energetic in winter.

The old man asked a woman to boil water for Tang Pin and A Niu to take a bath. In winter, there is no choice but to wash together. The woman will stay outside, and a little boy will follow the young woman closely. As long as someone bullies the woman People, the little boy is ready to rush up to fight with each other at any time, the eyes looking at Tang Pin are better, but when seeing A Niu, the eyes are not right, the little boy is very nervous about A Niu's every move.

Tang Pin touched A Niu's shoulder and said, "The child has a grudge against you?"

A Niu rolled his eyes: "No."

"Then why does he seem to be on guard against you? Did you bully him before?" Tang Pin continued to ask.

"I've never seen him before, why did he bully me?" A Niu said helplessly.
