Power to the government and the public: Qian engaged in business in ancient times

Chapter 74 Wen Cheng
"Okay, I'll send you to Aunt Jiang to learn embroidery." Wen Qian saw the longing in Wen Qiu's eyes, and nodded seriously.

This requirement is too simple.

But I have to trouble Jiang shi, as for why she didn't send her to study in the embroidery building in the town, one is that she is worried about Wen Qiu's safety, and the other is that Jiang shi's craftsmanship is better than the people in the embroidery building.

Wen Qiu asked anxiously: "Will Auntie Jiang agree?"

"With my help to intercede, your wish will definitely be granted."

After Wen Qian finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Wen Dong: "What about you? Do you have any ideas?"

Wen Dong was a little dazed at first, then stood up suddenly, looked at Wen Qian with firm and confident eyes, and said calmly, "I want to study, practice martial arts, and also practice medicine!"

As long as you give me a chance, I want to prove to my parents that my daughter is no worse than a man from the Wen family!

Wen Qiu was a little surprised, her small face wrinkled into a ball, and her words were a little contemptuous: "A-Dong, are you serious? You're asking too much, don't be too ambitious, just play like a chicken!"

Wen Dong glanced at Wen Qiu proudly. Seeing that Wen Qian hadn't said a word, he raised his head and continued, "I'm still young. I'm only 11 years old this winter. As long as I study hard, I'm sure I can do it."

In Wen Qian's previous life, she was led by the nose all her life, either on the way to complete the task of killing, or on the way to avoid being chased, killed or arrested, or she changed her identity and went in and out in front of people, enjoying a moment of noise.

That's why when I saw the two sisters Wen Qiu and Wen Dong in the old house, I subconsciously took the initiative to give them a little bit of love.

Now that Wen Dong has so much backbone and ideas, she naturally won't object.

"Okay, if you want to study, learn martial arts, or study medicine, I can teach you."

Wen Qian stared into Wen Dong's eyes with a serious and indifferent expression: "I only have one request, no matter how hard or tiring I am, I can't give up halfway, can I do it?"

Hearing Wen Qian's affirmative answer, Wen Dong stared at Wen Qian with bright eyes: "Yes."

Wen Qian smiled, touched the heads of the two of them, and said lightly: "I will tell grandma, uncle, and uncle what you think, and when the time comes, you have to speak up bravely, and you can't retreat!"

After all, Wen Qian left the old house.

When I came to the door of Duobao's house, I saw Humen and Duobao sitting under the eaves with big smiles and chatting.

From a distance, Wen Qian could feel Humen and Duobao's joyful mood. It seemed that the life of raising piglets made the two of them very busy.

Duobao patted Humen's thigh, pointed to the two big baskets in the corner of the main room, and shouted.

"Humen, the weather is getting hotter every day. It's rare that it's not very hot today. You go to the house and get two baskets. Let's go up the mountain and cut more pigweed, so that we don't have to go up the mountain in the sun every day. Wait for the summer. Once it passes, there will be wheat stalks for the pigs to eat!"

"it is good."

Humen nodded, and was about to enter the house to get the basket, when he looked up and saw Wen Qian who had entered the door, his face beamed with joy: "Wen Xiucai, are you here to see the pigs?"

Duobao, who was sitting, also saw Wen Qian, and immediately got up and walked over cheerfully: "Wen Xiucai, I'll take you to see the piglets, they can eat, and they are all plump, which is really gratifying .”

"Well, I don't worry about you raising pigs." Wen Qian nodded in approval, and quickly raised her hand to stop Duobao and Humen who were going to lead the way to see the piglets.

"Are you going to pull up mountains and cut pigweed?"

"En." Duobao, Humen nodded.

"I'll go with you." Wen Qian said.

Humen and Duobao walked in front with their baskets on their backs, while Wen Qian walked behind empty-handed.

The three of them walked through a small hill and came to the foot of Mount Ba, where they met Wen Cheng, the eldest grandson of the village chief's family.

Wen Cheng was wearing a dark blue gown, standing on the path beside the grass, with a warm smile on his face, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Wen Qian squinted her eyes, she came prepared.

Wen Cheng stepped forward, passed Duobao and Humen, and saluted Wen Qian: "Wen Xiucai is good."

Wen Qian secretly looked at Humen, and after Duobao winked, she looked at Wen Cheng calmly: "You know I'm coming to pull the mountain?"

"I don't know." Wen Cheng shook his head, but his eyes looked at Humen and Duobao who were leaving, but he said to Wen Qian: "I'm just curious where the two of them got the money to buy so many piglets, and where did they come from?" Where is the hog grass cut and fed, let me see it today."

Wen Qian understood in a second that sitting on the fence and waiting for rabbits was not a good idea, but it was very practical.

As long as you stay where the rabbits often come and go, you can easily catch other prey.

After a moment of silence, Wen Qian asked politely, "I want to go up the mountain, do you want to go?"

As for Wen Cheng, the original owner had no friendship or contact with him.

Wen Cheng is also a scholar, but he has always been a part-time student with the best Tianyang Academy in Anle Town.

The reason why it is said that it is a part-time job as a companion is because Wen Cheng relied on his relationship with his aunt, a gentry in the town, and entered Tianyang Academy in name as his aunt's son, a scholar. The students there are either rich or expensive.

Ordinary people can also rely on their own excellent knowledge to enter, but entering is also the object of being excluded, suppressed and bullied by other students.

Once the hot spring was expensive and wanted to send the original owner there, but the original owner would rather make the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

If I remember correctly, Wen Cheng entered Tianyang College at the age of ten, and now he is in his twenties. He was still a scholar in 13 years, and he didn't even pass the entrance examination for children, which is a bit unreasonable.

Wen Cheng said, "Okay."

Um?He actually agreed!

I'm just being polite, can't you hear me?

Wen Qian frowned slightly, and looked at Wen Chang's ordinary and featureless face in surprise: "Aren't you afraid that the lynx on the mountain will come out to eat people?"

Wen Cheng smiled and said, "Didn't Wen Liang go up Mount Ba by himself? I heard that the tiger didn't see it, but he saw a ghost. I wonder if you can see a ghost?"

"I didn't see a ghost, but I saw a lynx. It's very powerful. I don't know if it can eat people."

Wen Qian understood the deep meaning of Wen Cheng's words, and walked ahead leading the way with a half-smile.

To put it bluntly, seeing is believing and hearing is believing.

The people who really saw the Tiger King were only those who went up the mountain to find the water source five years ago. After a long time, people's fear has faded away.

However, Wen Qian knew very well that there was a poisonous and old Taoist hidden in the canyon of Bashan Mountain, and he was afraid that the ordinary villagers who went up the mountain alone would not please him.

It seems that the people in Wenjia Village also noticed that the Wen clan was able to dig up pepper saplings carelessly in the daytime, so they told Village Chief Wen, and Wen Cheng was there to watch over them.

Maybe from the time she left the old house to go to Duobao's house, she was watched by the caring Wen Cheng all the way.

Wen Cheng looked at Wen Qian who was walking leisurely in front of him, his calm eyes darkened, and he asked casually, "Are you familiar with this mountain?"

"Familiar with it??...No, I've just pulled mountains a few more times than you, so I'm not familiar with it."

Wen Qian turned to look at Wen Cheng, not understanding why he asked this question.

Wen Cheng chuckled and said, "Oh, do you think this answer is credible?"

Wen Qian could clearly see the bright sneer on his face and the questioning look in his eyes, she was a little speechless: "I'm really not familiar with it, I've been here once or twice...five times, plus today's only the sixth time."

It was the first time to hunt ghosts together with Wen Liang, but ended up paying homage to a cheap master.

The second time I went up the mountain to look for seasonings and found sugar cane.

For the third time, he took Huang Weibao up the mountain to cut sugar cane.

For the fourth time, I led my uncle, second uncle, Wen Liang and others to pull up the mountain to find pepper saplings.

The fifth time, on the first day of this month, I went to the valley to study medicine.

I go!These days, my sister finally told the truth, but no one believes it?

Wen Cheng looked at the sincerity in his eyes, and nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that this mountain pulling is destined for you."

"That is, it is indeed destined to me."

Treasures can be found every time.

This point, Wen Qian took it for granted.

"This time, what are you doing up the mountain?"

Wen Cheng didn't expect that he could believe what he said casually, and he could answer it as the truth. He was surprised and at the same time a little bit reasonable.

"Find the mulberry tree."

Wen Qian casually pulled a piece of grass, put it in her mouth, and looked around.

"Mulberry tree?" Wen Cheng thought for a while, then said, "I've never heard of it."

"Of course you haven't heard of it. This is what I read on the Internet... miscellaneous books. The leaves of this tree can be used for pig food, and can also be used to raise silkworms. The fruits it bears are sour and sweet."

Wen Qian said inwardly that it was dangerous, almost calling it a computer.

"Oh."

Wen Cheng looked at Wen Qian who was looking for him seriously, if it wasn't for the fact that the sense of alienation still existed in him, he would have suspected that he had changed his temper.

Then he asked: "What is the appearance and shape of the mulberry tree? Let me help you find it."
