Chapter 163 Let them keep it safe

Zhong Shuling looked at his son and smiled: "I am looking forward to it as a father."

After writing for a quarter of an hour, the children put down their pens one after another.Zhong Shuling stood beside them and watched, praised them one by one, and made some suggestions.The children's faces flushed with excitement.

Zhong Shuling looked at Liu Huaijin and pointed to Zhang Ci: "You can find him for articles, he writes well."

Liu Huaijin nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.Although he hoped that Zhongshu Ling could give him some advice, he knew that it was an extravagant hope.Being able to ask him to ask more questions is already an affirmation and guidance to him.

"When you go to the capital to take the exam, you can come to see me at home." Zhong Shuling said again.The children opened their eyes wide and looked at Huai Jin eagerly.Huai Jin was so excited that his lips trembled, he managed to stabilize his emotions, and bowed deeply: "This junior will definitely do his best to live up to your expectations."

Zhongshu Ling nodded slightly, looked at Zhang Ci, and asked casually: "Tomorrow is Chongyang Festival, what arrangements do you have?"

Zhang Ci replied: "Chongyang is to climb high and resign, eat Chongyang cakes, and drink chrysanthemum wine. Except for Yema Mountain, there are no high mountains nearby. You have to go far to climb high, and the journey may take a long time."

"Then go to Mustang Mountain to have a look. It's not appropriate to run too far. Come out and walk around." After finishing speaking, Zhong Shuling took the lead to go out.

The children took the pens and water bowls, went to clean them up, packed up the desks, and walked out of the yard.

Zhongshu Ling smiled: "The habits of these dolls are quite good, Miss Chen taught them well. Chen Zhongyan also wants to work?"

"Of course. Everyone has to work in the fields, help cook in the kitchen, and take turns washing the dishes."

"He will?"

"Of course, I glanced at him." Zhang Ci said.Zhongshuling laughed loudly.

A team of 1000 people came, and the rice in the fields fell down in batches.Zhongshu Ling and his party crossed the bridge to see the rice in Kaiyun Village.

Several flat fields were made there, and the rice is drying on the fields.Even if there were a few chaos, the bundled rice in each field was marked with different cloth strips, and the villagers and tenants did not have to worry that the rice grown by themselves would be mixed with other homes.

All the people in the field fell to their knees.As soon as Wuli was called here, the villagers from Kaiyun Village over there ran over in groups.Li Zheng ran to the front with one foot high and one foot low, and knelt down first, and all the people in the village knelt down.

After shouting "Excuse me", Zhong Shuling didn't speak any more, but just walked in another direction.Li followed in a hurry.Zhong Shuling continued to walk until he walked halfway, nearly two miles.Li was so tired that he had his hips on his hips and gasped for breath.

"Master Lizheng needs to strengthen his training." Zhong Shuling said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I will definitely exercise more in the future." Lizheng said panting heavily, "Your Excellency is in good health, with a steady face and steady breath."

Zhong Shuling still smiled: "I just travel around a lot and walk more. How do you think the harvest of these rice is?"

Li Zheng took a few breaths and said: "The yield of this batch of rice is really amazing. I have never seen such a high yield. Planting this batch of high-yielding rice next year will benefit more people and the problem of hunger will be greatly reduced." be relieved."

Zhongshu Ling smiled and walked back: "Why are there only nine families in your village who rented land to plant?"

Li Zheng smiled awkwardly: "The land in Kaiyun Village is barren, and the land is also suffering from floods. The villagers are also worried about the yield, fearing that a season of hard work will be in vain."

"Well, there are reasons. The rice of these nine villagers must be kept well so that they can grow more food in the coming year."

"My lord is right, their rice will be handled by them."

After walking back for another two miles, Li Zheng collapsed from exhaustion.

Zhong Shuling made a turn around and said to his son, "The atmosphere over there is not as good as Qijiadu." Zhang Ci smiled and said nothing.

"Let them call it a day at four o'clock (four o'clock) and clean up some stalls. The weather is fine these days, and the rice will be processed tomorrow."

At 03:30, the rice harvesters and threshers all stopped their work and started bagging, sorting, and cleaning...

The people who came to grab the food in front have already been sent back, and those who were slightly injured or seriously injured were transported back by those people, and the carriages and horses should not be expected to return.The large group of people who came this morning are still in the hands of General Yan.

The tents for the camp had already been set up. Nearly a thousand grain grabbers had stuffed several tents. The carts were crowded and crowded with almost half an acre of land, and [-] horses were left behind.

"Fifty chariots, why only twenty horses?" Zhong Shuling asked General Yan.

"Maybe it's not far away. The carriage should be pulled more, and the other carts should be less. People can pull it over. It's no problem to make a trip of [-] catties of food."

Zhongshuling smiled: "When can I find out the result?"

Yan Shoulu shook his head: "The horse must not be registered."

"Let's have a trial first. It's quite interesting here." Zhong Shuling walked towards the children, "Do you have any fun games? Let the soldiers play."

Chen Zhongliang's eyes brightened: "Then let's tug of war."

Zhong Shuling looked at him with a smile: "How to pull it out?"

"Take a long rope and put a team on each side, with a strip of cloth tied in the middle. Whoever pulls the strip to the prescribed position first wins."

Yan Shoulu came over and said, "Since it's a tug-of-war, and there is a river here, then stand on both sides of the river and pull, and whoever falls into the water first loses."

Chen Zhongliang opened his mouth wide, can he still play like this?
Zhongshu Ling smiled: "You have the final say on your soldiers."

Yan Shoulu blew his whistle, and the children looked at him with wide eyes.A general has to carry a whistle with him?
The soldiers lined up in a hurry.Yan Shoulu shouted: "Let's play a game now - tug-of-war. A team stands on each side of the river, pulls the rope and pulls hard. Whoever falls into the water first will lose."

Soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, and they all say "oh--" by coincidence, and their smiles become more and more strange.

The rope is there if you want it, thick and long.Zhong Shuling looked at the drainage canal: "Is the water deep? Is it cold?" Yan Shoulu didn't think so: "It's okay, I have been soaking in the river in the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month. What is the water at the time of frost?"

Zhong Shuling looked at Zhang Ci, and Zhang Ci said: "The water is not submerged, and the silt of the Xinhe River is not thick, so it can stand firm." Yan Shou Lu Yi grinned: "Then it's all right, let's start."

While speaking, the soldiers had already selected eight teams with 20 people in each team.
