Tang Dynasty good man

Chapter [-] Growing Pains

On the dinner table, fresh and tender wild vegetables are picked and washed, and gently passed in boiling water. Garlic, peppercorns, and shredded green onions are piled on the top. Boil it for a while, pour it down along the traces of splashed oil, and pour a spoonful of sesame oil...

The unique fragrance of wild vegetables and the oily onion and garlic are refreshing!My second daughter and I went down with chopsticks, and the cold salad on the plate was reduced by half, but Ying picked up a small strip from the beginning and put it in his mouth, and it still looks like he hasn't finished chewing it yet.I never saw her move her chopsticks again.

"What kind of porcelain?" I knocked on the table, "The two trees are useless, so it's no pity to cut them down." After the housekeeper brought a group of thugs down in the afternoon, according to my idea, let's not ask the reason. The one who steals the tree will be beaten up.Regardless of whether it is a trickster or not, it doesn't matter if you hit a thief, even if you make a mistake, you will definitely have the upper hand if you use this power to judge later.Who knew that there was no fight in front of them, and the dozen or so burly men didn't dare to do anything to the six of them.

After hearing the steward's breathless report, he realized that those few people were not from the Yun family at all, but were sent by the officials to clean up the seedlings that had invaded the farmland.Well, this is unreasonable. For the officials, no matter whose tree or land you own, if you dare to occupy the farmland, you have to cut it down, and you have to implement corresponding punishment measures after cutting it.Since it was a matter of the Yun family, he still had to go to the Yun family to ask for a fine, which was always five, and there was no negotiating for a single copper.

"It's not a pity for the tree, it's very strange." Ying put down her chopsticks, frowned and pondered for a while, and said slowly: "The tree has been planted for several years, and it has been cut down long ago, but it happened at this time. Although the official The boss put the responsibility on the Yun family, and there is nothing wrong with our family, but the concubine feels that something is wrong."

"What's wrong." Seeing that the plate was empty, Ying hadn't eaten a whole mouthful, so she picked it up and put it on her plate. "If something is wrong, you have to eat dinner. Try it quickly, it's sour and crunchy." I also thought about it during the whole process. It's understandable that the government acted according to the law.But usually, the borders between the farms have never been so strictly managed, not to mention the place where the border with the Wang family is, the government tries to save face, and doesn't ask if it can avoid contamination.Unless someone reported it, they had no choice but to intervene.

"If my concubine is Yun girl, if I really can't swallow this breath, I might do it like this." Ying ignored me to give her some wild vegetables, thinking about heart and psychological excavation of exchanging roles, "Yun girl Mingli dare not say anything, but she can It is also a good way to find someone to report to the officials and report that the Yun family has invaded the farmland. The officials came forward to cut down our tree, and the Yun family accepted a five-year fine. The land was also taken back, and the anger was released. If you become dumb, you can’t attack yet. It really kills two birds with one stone.”

"Ah?" The second daughter and I looked at each other, and the second daughter nodded approvingly.Brazenly picked another chopstick of wild vegetables from the rice plate. "If it's like this, Yun girl is really interesting. Hehe." A narrow-minded shrewd person, a woman who thinks about women's affairs, can guess with absolute certainty.It's really possible for Ying to say that. ? ?It's not a lot of money, and you can get it back with a little money, which is a good deal.Girl Yun, if she really did this, she would definitely not be a good person.

"That's right!" Ying clapped her hands after she figured it out, squinted her eyes and laughed, "Smelly girl is really interesting, if our family doesn't think of this level, she will be tricked. She thinks that we will do it like this." I have to start a fight with the officials. Think about it, we really beat up the officials in the afternoon without thinking, no matter how reasonable things are, I almost let her get her way. In the future, the concubine will You have to be careful when dealing with her, hehe..."

"Eat quickly," I told the servant girl to bring over a plate of wild vegetables as before, and the second daughter saw that Ying didn't want to eat.It was eaten up in a few honest strokes.Even the soup and water were dipped in steamed buns.

Ying figured it out and she had an appetite. Women always like these refreshing side dishes.Excitedly sweeping the whole plate down.

"I'm so full of breath, I don't want to eat." Ying threw down the empty rice plate and patted her lower abdomen, then took the silk scarf and wiped her mouth in a gentle manner, "Tomorrow, I will ask the wild vegetable delivery person to dig more. There are many places on the slope. , can eat until after the wheat harvest.”

"I think it's better to be angry if you're full. You'll eat more than when you're not angry." The second daughter took another drink from the bottom of the plate. up. "Why are you so angry that you count people all day long, and you don't want them to count them back once? You are the same. You want to plant two trees to occupy the land, haha."

Ying shook the silk scarf in embarrassment, turned around and patted the second daughter, "Eat! What else do you know? They are all riding on top of our heads!"

"You," the two wives just did this when they had nothing to do, and didn't bother to meddle. "Remember, vegetarian eggs are selling well now, no matter what you do, don't cut off the supply." The Yun family is now the largest supplier of raw materials for Biandan Workshop, sending over 100 eggs every day on average. It can't be too ugly.

"Hmph," Ying sneered, "Break it, we dare to cut it off, but she doesn't dare. Even if the concubine is now planting the tree back with the NPC in a bright light, she doesn't dare to say anything!" The woman walked into the back house, "The fourth child is not here, so I can think more about her."

"I can't do it here," I wanted to take the opportunity to take a turn when I passed the back hall to take a walk, but Ying noticed it and pulled my sleeves tightly. "You two can't discuss it. Why do you have to pull me? Who is the one who feeds the chicken? Is his wife going back to greet her when she is sick? Now there is one less labor, and I will help out."

"That's not it," Ying didn't let go, and said with a smile: "If you don't talk about chicken, it's fine, hehe..." Turning her eyes, she turned to the second daughter and said, "I'll find fourth brother, I'll call her."

The second daughter understood, nodded, turned around and grabbed my hand, motioning for me to take her to escape together.

"If you don't discuss it, don't discuss it," Ying smiled and let me go, "I can't count on the family affairs at all. It will be a long time, and it will be dark for a while. I will go to Zhuangzi to have a look." Then she turned and called The two maids left.

"Go, I'll bring you a needle-nose belt, and we'll catch voles." As soon as Ying's figure turned around the corridor, I began to yell for Wangcai to come over.It's the breeding season for voles. Every time I cross the ridge, I can see rows of small heads looking around. One of them stands upright on a high point to keep watch. As soon as people approach, they disappear without a trace.Unlike mice.Voles are much cleaner, and many people in Zhuangzi set up some tricks to catch them for wine and side dishes.Although it's ugly, it's not bad for training dogs. The needle nose is getting bigger day by day, and the movements are more agile. It's the best time for training.As for Prosperity, forget it, just cheer on it.Nothing else can be done.

On the ridge of the field, the needle-nose was witty, and the second daughter who was excitedly commanding, Wangcai knew that he had no one's ability, so he rolled in the green wheat field to express himself. Since the crime of ruining the crops is unforgivable, I gave it a kick , be honest.Today's wheat is not very resistant to lodging, and after being overwhelmed by Wangcai, it spreads in the fields.I couldn't bear it, so I jumped off the ridge of the field and helped up the trees one by one. Wangcai knew he had made a mistake, and admitted his mistake by shaking his head beside my legs.Another kick.

The dogs of rich and noble families are different from the dogs of peasant households. The dogs of peasant households know that it is not easy for their masters to farm.It cares about the crops very much. If it finds that someone has stepped on the wheat seedlings in the field, it will follow behind and keep calling until it drives out the guy with no public morals.Wangcai didn't have such a high level of awareness, he just ate, and he didn't have much other skills except to waste food.So he has been despised and oppressed all the time.

If there is a kite standing on the shoulders, it will be majestic.I looked up at the kite gliding under the setting sun, its posture was graceful, especially when it was diving not far away.I saw my heart surge.Wangcai has made great achievements!It didn't give the kite any chance, it just rushed over, the kite had no choice but to throw the prey and escape, and got rich and picked up the bargain...

"Haha..." I laughed wildly and patted Wangcai's head, looking at the needle nose in front of him who had found nothing, still sticking out his tongue and trying to chase him down, it's so unfair.The second daughter was also amused by Wangcai's wit, and tugged at its ears a few times.To show encouragement. "What's wrong with the world. Even dogs can do this, hehe..."

"Wangcai is smarter than a needle nose." The two daughters grinned and touched the little lump of maltose and threw it into Wangcai's mouth. "If it's a human being, Wang Cai must be a high-ranking official."

"What about the needle nose?" He is a diligent guy, but he is inexperienced after all. He has failed several times, but he is not discouraged.

"Needle nose, if you're lucky, you can be an errand runner in a rich family. If you're unlucky, you won't starve to death. If you're a farmer, you can have a full meal with two handfuls of strength. Ha ha, but you can't eat maltose." The second woman sympathized Needle nose, called me over and rewarded a piece of candy, "Husband, do you like Wangcai or needle nose?"

"Wangcai." I made a choice without thinking. "No one will like a serious guy. The bigger the heart, the bigger the desire, the more annoying. Unless he is serious for me, pick friends with wine and meat, and make money. There is an atmosphere together."

"Oh?" The second girl turned around and waited for my explanation.

"Humans are different from dogs. Serious people definitely want to have abilities. The greater the ability, the stronger the desire. It is a good thing to have ambition and desire, but if it is too big, it may hurt yourself and your family." Pointing his nose, "You Look, although the needle nose also ate a jelly bean, it is obviously emotional, because it thinks that Wangcai's ability should not catch the field mouse. It doesn't like Wangcai, but neither does the dog at home. The dog doesn't care, If people live like this, what's the point of being capable? Either they are used by others or they are squeezed out by their colleagues. You can hang yourself with a rope."

"What about the husband?" The second female general released the unconvinced needle nose again, Wangcai still walked around his prey to show off, and kept wagging his tail to me. "Husband is also capable."

"It doesn't count." I shook my head, "To be honest, I'm far behind you and my wife. My wife is smart, I'm not as good as her, you're smart, I'm not as good as you. And you don't like Princess Lanling the least. She is knowledgeable and eager to learn, and she is much better than me," smiled, and pointed to Wangcai who was sniffing at my feet, "It looks like me, don't you think?"

The second daughter smiled beautifully, the setting sun like blood was reflected on her face, making her even more charming.Suddenly found that the second daughter is already a big girl, not the girl movie two years ago, where the word charming was used locally. "The husband never said these things to his wife, but only to the second daughter?"

"No, it's not the same." I patted her head, "Madam is concerned about the family business, and your heart is only on me. With Madam here, our family has the backbone. Don't look at me, I don't have the ability. Human That's it, people who seem to be able to live may not necessarily be able to live, but they must be able to live. I don't know how to do it. You don't necessarily know how to do it. But then again, it is enough for the three of us to be like my wife by."

The second daughter nodded and said with a smile: "The concubine can also do housework, does the husband want to see it? It's not worse than the wife."

"You will too?" I smiled and slapped the second girl's ass, "You can pretend you don't, and I have the right to pretend you don't." When a person grows, he has more ideas.It is normal for the second daughter to have this idea, "You are just a smart person talking nonsense."

"Hee hee, I told my husband on purpose. You actually like the appearance of the second daughter." Needle nose finally figured it out. The booty was put on the lips and placed under the feet of the second daughter.Wangcai hummed a few times in dissatisfaction, but did not dare to step forward to fight.

"Look, the needle nose has improved. Haha..." In fact, there are striking similarities between the behavior of dogs and humans.When you find that you are not capable enough to achieve something, you will immediately focus on the achievements of others.It seems that stealing and looting is the nature endowed by nature to all creatures, and it is only sharper in the hands of the strong. "Return. Both dogs have gained something, it's not easy." He squeezed the second girl's chin. "Recently, the wine production of the distillery is not small. The business of you and your wife is doing well."

"Hee hee," the second daughter leaned closer and whispered, "Madam invested money to open a wine shop, and his natal family came forward to run it. They say it's surnamed Chen, but it's actually our family's business. And it's a business that sells toilet water and vegetarian eggs. All the households in the relationship sent samples, and the business was very good.”

"Well, it's a meritorious service for reporting!" Pulling the second daughter's armband, he took out a maltose from a small wooden box and stuffed it into her mouth, "Did you rush to the north gate to steal our handicraft? I don't know? I found out and quickly reported the accomplices for meritorious service, it's a thief." Lan Ling had reported it a long time ago, saying that now the wine brewed by Chen's family is not delivered to the restaurant.All the exquisite small jars are given to the rich families in the capital, and the prices are frighteningly high.

Ying and the second daughter are powerful, so they go directly to the high-end route, which is much more profitable than opening a restaurant. The big profits earned from the high-end subsidy are used to compete with the North Gate for the low-end market, so that both the price and the brand have been established. invincible.

"Your idea? Or the fourth child?" Although Ying is shrewd, she does not have such a long-term strategic vision in business, and Ying herself knows it well.That's why I asked the second daughter to discuss.

"Madam thinks for herself." The second daughter blinked, "Madam used to be the daughter of a merchant's family."

"That's what you think." I helped her across a ridge.What the second girl said is interesting, hehe. "It's pretty good, it's nothing. Don't steal or grab it. He sold it earlier than us. It stands to reason that he should be better than us. If we collapse because he can't sell it, he deserves it."

"According to Madam's intention, the workshop for distilling wine is to be managed by my concubine. Madam wants to use the business of selling wine to let my concubine take over the management of the workshop from the fourth brother." The second daughter held my arm tightly , posted it and said: "Since the fourth son climbed into the relationship with the royal family, he has become more refined, but his heart has also changed. She has pinched several incomes of our family. Madam is worried."

"Oh," I looked at the second daughter, wondering what she meant.Deliberately delaying the conversation, he said slowly: "I'm afraid that you will be tired, and my heart aches. If it wasn't for this, I would have left it to you."

"Not tired!" The second daughter blurted out without thinking.Immediately, I felt something was wrong again, blushed and secretly glanced at me, and kept silent.

"Haha..." Young man, no matter how thoughtful he is, he is still impulsive after all.Ying is worried that the fourth child is normal. Although they are sisters, after all, they are two families now. They usually chat with me, and the meaning is more or less revealed in the words, but I pretend that I can't hear it.But Ying will never reveal this idea in front of the second daughter.The second daughter saw what Ying meant, and also figured out what I was thinking, and took the opportunity to take advantage of this gap.If I agree with the second daughter to take over the rights of the fourth child, Ying thinks that I am following her wishes and will never object.The second daughter also took the opportunity to hold the family's big gains in her arms, laying the foundation for the future and being able to grow together. "My mind is playing tricks, I'm talking about you. The fourth child has the advantages of the fourth child. You may not be able to do better than her. It doesn't matter even if she has a different heart. The contract between our family and the Chen family is kept there. , I’m very relieved to have you by my side, who is so fine-looking.” I patted her little hand, “I know what you think, but now you are the pillar of the Wang family’s residence, and you just don’t take over the authority of the fourth child. , the income of the family is also on your head. In the future, when the fourth child gets married, let alone the Wang family will not let her intervene, even the Chen family will not allow the married daughter to manage the property. You are a substitute, why are you in a hurry?"

"Then what if she doesn't marry?" The second daughter was a little confused, "She never talked about looking for her husband's family all day long. I heard that the princess asked her what she meant, but the fourth child just refused."

"There's also the question of whether to marry or not. Don't worry about it." Yan looked at the door and let go of the second daughter, "Just be honest when you get home, and pretend to be incompetent. You have a plan in mind to tell me secretly."

The second girl smiled and nodded.
