Chapter 26 Forbearance (1)
In order to solve the food shortage problem, the emperor issued a new decree this year.In order to encourage farming and encourage people to open up wasteland, the tax on existing land will be reduced by [-]% nationwide for a period of two years.In areas not affected by the disaster, land reclaimed land will be paid one stone of grain per five mu of land each year, and other taxes and miscellaneous labors will be exempted for a period of three years; in areas affected by the disaster last year, land reclamation and planting will be exempted from taxes and miscellaneous labors for a period of five years.

Nowadays, the main source of income for the ancient mansion is the [-]-acre farm. Of course, Qingshu must pay attention to the dynamics of farming and taxation, and find ways to increase the output of the farmland. If conditions permit, she also wants to take the opportunity to open some wasteland for farming.As for Tao Nong Shu, the first is to understand the planting structure and species of the Da’an Dynasty, the second is to make a cover for his upcoming big moves in planting, and the third is to explore ways to increase food production while experimenting with various factors such as climate.

She wants to improve her life in a reasonable and step-by-step manner, instead of directly transforming from a boudoir lady into a farmer who is good at farming, and is regarded as a monster and burned to death.Everything needs rationality. You can be smart, and you can reach heights that others cannot achieve in practice, but you can't become a monster in the eyes of the world.Besides, due to the influence of many factors such as soil, climate, sunlight, and rain, farming is not as simple as copying modern things. Everything needs to be accumulated through practice during the learning process.

It's just that she didn't expect that her first experimental field was not in the farm on the outskirts of the capital, but in the hometown of her late father thousands of miles away.Therefore, the world is impermanent, plans are not as fast as changes, and man's calculations are often not as good as heaven's calculations.

Bu Yuyan left at a quarter of noon, and only left reluctantly when Xiao Xing urged her repeatedly.

Qing Shu didn't know that the first thing Bu Yuyan did after returning home was to pester her father and brothers in the capital to collect agricultural books for her, which helped her a lot.

In the afternoon, Li Dalang drove the carriage to pick up Qingyang, who had finished school, back to his residence.

Qingshu hurriedly came to the front yard to pick up Qingyang, but saw Yuan Bao, covered in dust, with a bruised nose and swollen face, picking up the curtain of the car to wait for Qingyang to get off the car.Her doubts turned into anger when she saw Qingyang who got out of the car with a broken mouth, half of his face swollen, and covered in dust. She shot sharp eyes at Yuan Bao, and unconsciously raised her voice, "Why? What's going on?"

Qingyang's small body trembled subconsciously, bit his lip and lowered his head listlessly, without answering.

But Yuan Bao was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground with a thump, prostrated himself on the ground, and said in a sobbing voice, "Miss, please forgive me. I'm a little incompetent. I can't protect the young master. Please forgive me, Miss."

At this time, Qingyang plucked up his courage, moved to stand in front of Yuanbao with difficulty, and said cautiously: "Sister, don't send Xiaoyang to study, okay? Xiaoyang, Xiaoyang doesn't like it." After a pause, "I don't blame Yuanbao, Yuan Bao is right, sister don't punish Yuan Bao, okay?"

Seeing the situation in front of her, Su's mother, who came trotting all the way, didn't care about Qingshu, and hugged Qingyang in her arms with a distressed face, "Master, does it hurt? It's that damn Ding Tianci who did it again." Right?" Without waiting for Qingyang to answer, he scolded his own son who was kneeling on the ground, "Yuan Bao, how did you protect the young master? You made the young master hurt like this?"

Qing Shu took a deep breath and told herself to calm down, "Mama Su, the matter is not clear yet, so don't scold Yuan Bao. Who is Ding Tianci?" Ding Tianci in his mother's mouth must not be the first time he hit Qingyang.

Su's mother let go of Qingyang sadly, faced Qingshu and replied: "It's the young master from Master Ding Zeding's house next door." Then she said: "Miss, this old servant will take the young master to apply the medicine."

Qing Shu was ruthless, waved her hand to express her refusal, and then asked softly, "Yuan Bao, Li Dalang, please tell me about today's events in detail." The younger brother's temperament is too soft, too timid, as a boy, it's not good, he must to change.

It turned out that the left neighbor of the ancient mansion was Ding Ze's mansion.Ding Ze is 47 years old and has a mean face.Although he was a businessman, he had his cousin-in-law, General Hu Da, as his backer behind him, but he was also very popular in the capital, walking like a breeze.He is a romantic businessman. He has countless wives and concubines in his mansion, but he has never had anything to do.He only had a son when he was 40 years old, and he cried and laughed with joy, went crazy for a few days, and named his son Tianci.As a matter of course, Ding Tianci, the only heir in the mansion, became the only treasure in the Ding family.

Ding Tianci is seven years old this year. He is an arrogant and willful fat man who bullies the weak.Because of his too much flesh on his face and his young age, he barely weakened the harsh look he inherited from his own father.Gu Mansion and Ding Mansion lived next to each other, and Gu Yunhu walked around occasionally when he was alive, but they were not close.After Gu Yunhu's death, only women and children remained in the mansion, and the movement between the Gu mansion and Ding mansion was completely cut off to avoid suspicion.

As time went by, Gufu became more and more desolate, and Ding Ze was very annoyed that there was such a poor neighbor in Gufu.However, he only dared to scold at home, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense outside.

Gu Qingyang was five and a half years old, and the housekeeper Gu Qiang decided to send him to Weiran Academy to study.Coincidentally, Ding Ze also sent his son to Weiran Academy.Gu Qingyang is the same age as Ding Tianci, and they are assigned to the same class.

It was okay at first, but after half a year, Ding Tianci started to bully Qingyang, at first he just hid Qingyang's books, or drew Qingyang into a cat face and laughed at him.

On the day Gu Qingshu fell into the water, Ding Tianci was not satisfied with just teasing Gu Qingyang, so he and the other two children grabbed Gu Qingyang and beat him.Seeing his young master being beaten, Yuan Bao stepped forward to stop him, but was caught and beaten by Ding Tianci's servants.In this way, both the master and the servant were painted.

Here Gu Qingshu fell into a coma with a high fever, while Gu Qingyang, who had been beaten during the day, also had a fever at night, causing the whole mansion to be thrown off their feet.

The original Gu Qingshu didn't care about his younger brother, so of course he didn't know about this.Of course, Qing Shu, who inherited the memory of her predecessor, did not know this either.When the siblings got close, Qingshu asked Qingyang why he didn't go to the school, and Qingyang just vaguely said that he didn't go because of illness.Qing Shu sees that he is thin and pale, she does not suspect him.Unexpectedly, the truth is like this.

After nearly 20 days, Qingyang returned to the school. Ding Tianci saw him and kept smiling maliciously.When they were about to leave school, the three of Ding Tianci and their respective servants, a total of six or seven people, robbed Qingyang and Yuanbao to a place where no one was around, and beat them for a while.

Two days ago, Qingshu jokingly said to Qingyang that a man should be brave, if someone calls him, he will call him back.Qingyang remembered it, and remembered it firmly, so he resisted with all his strength uncharacteristically, and fought with six or seven people together with Yuanbao.

They made a lot of noise, and soon the master came. Without asking the reason or listening to Qingyang's explanation, the master directly expelled Qingyang from Weiran Academy, that is, Qingyang was forced to drop out of school.

Because of being dismissed for fighting, Qingyang was very afraid, afraid that his sister would be angry and ignore him, so he acted tremblingly and cowardly.
