As the landlord of Xiaohezhuang, the lord of Liao Mansion can save the drowning children from the dust, and he also has a straight mouth, saying that the children will be fine the next day, and sure enough, the news that it will be good is spread in ten miles and eight towns. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

If the dust is like this, it has become a living immortal in the mouth of the villagers, and it is the kind of star in the sky that has been handed down, can live and die, flesh and bones, communicate with the underworld, and chase souls in the underworld. And the farther it goes, the stranger the version becomes. In the end, the absurdity reached the point where even the original version of the hair was unrecognizable.

Most of the people of this era believed in ghosts and gods, especially in the countryside, and they were always particularly interested in something beyond common sense, and they were deeply in awe.

In any case, Master Liao is a capable person and has been unanimously respected by the villagers.

It is not the envy and fear of the tenant for the owner, but a kind of respect and awe from the bottom of the heart.

It has been two or three years since Lichen bought the manor, and for the first time he has received the sincere respect of the villagers.

From the day when the baby son of the villager Lai Youfu's family was fully awake and could run and jump a few days later, like no one else, Lichen could often receive gifts from the villagers.

For example, fresh fish that have just been caught from the river, such as wild rabbits and pheasants caught in the mountains. The gifts are all things that can be obtained in the mountains, and there is no shortage in Liaofu, but these are the best things that the villagers can come up with.

The old housekeeper was very happy that his master could be truly loved by the villagers. Everywhere you go, someone respectfully greets you, for the old housekeeper who takes Liao's house in charge, this is the best embodiment of his master's "doing good deeds and educating the countryside", so he instructed the porter to not only pay according to the market price, but also increase the price.

As a result, more villagers came to give gifts. The old butler was very happy to come and report to the dust.

Lichen is a little crying and laughing, what kind of education is this?

"Master, why don't you count, now you, sir, are a real good person in the surrounding townships, and your reputation is very good," the old supervisor corrected excitedly.

Lichen instantly understood, it turned out that the good name of the countryside could also be bought with money. Sure enough, the ancient and modern are together, and everything is changing!

In July, the rice is ripe, the frogs and insects are singing in the rice fields, and the golden rice blanket is boundless. Seeing that the harvest was imminent, the villagers were very happy, and so was Lichen.

No matter what the era, a good harvest is a joyful thing. Because it means that a year's hard work has finally paid off.

A few days ago, a villager sent two puppies. It's the kind of Chinese pastoral dog with a very pure bloodline, but these two are more special, one black and one white, which can be called black and white, and it seems that they are not afraid of raw, the meat is whirring, and the furry is very cute. Zhu Zaikai likes it very much. However, there are two overlords in the family who also like it very much, walking on their little short legs and relying on their young, Zhu Zaikai and the little girl can't pull the child, and soon control the ownership of the two little milk dogs, Zhu Zai and the little girl as big children, even if they complain, they have to give up with tears, and then hope that Lichen can get another big black and white dog, one is worth the two little guys.

When Lichen heard Zhu Zaikai's request, he almost thought that Zhu Zaikai was talking about the kind of Erha dog that shocked China in later generations.

Chinese pastoral dogs are rarely pure black and white, and most of them are yellow dogs. Black and white is really rare, so it was sent to Liao Mansion as a gift by the villagers.

"En" Lichen said very irresponsibly and perfunctorily: "There is no black and white here, you may have to go all the way to the north, and there may be at the end of the north." ”

Lichen doesn't know where Erha originates, but since it is a sled, it is either the South Pole or the North Pole, and there are few other creatures in the South Pole except for black and white penguins. Then the hope for the Arctic is greater.

"Ahh It's so cold in the north, can you still live in it? Zhu Zaikai asked strangely.

"It's colder in the south than in the north!" Lichen replied.

"Ahh Zhu Zaikai's mouth opened wide. I really doubt that my master is talking nonsense!

"When you grow up, you can send a few boats, all the way to the south, all the way to the north, and you'll know" How could Chen not understand what the little thing in front of him was thinking, and waved his hand jokingly: "Okay, don't talk about this." Shigong will take you for a walk, and there is still an acre of land left in the poor road, and he will take you to harvest rice tomorrow. ”

"Ahh Zhu Zaikai opened his mouth wide, and he didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy to discuss with the little girl. The two little ones in the family will definitely not be able to help, and it will only add to the chaos if they go, and the thing must be that the master will take himself and the little girl to do it, if he asks the next person to help him, how can the master inform himself so solemnly.

The family walked to the edge of the rice field outside the village, and the summer wind blew through the boundless rice waves, like a boundless golden ocean. There are already many families in the rice field who have begun to harvest rice, sweating like rain, racing against time to harvest every grain of grain.

It's still early in the morning, and when the sun gets a little higher, the rice fields will not be able to be harvested. The scorching summer sun kills people, so harvesting rice is generally done at night and early in the morning.

In the south of the Yangtze River, harvesting summer rice and planting autumn rice are called "double grabbing". This is really a harvest with God. It is rainy in summer, and a heavy rain can make all the grain that is about to enter the warehouse be sent to the land lord. Moreover, the time window between harvesting and planting is very short, and missing the time between harvesting and planting means a year of poor harvest for farmers.

When I came back from the rice field, I saw more people preparing for the double robbery. Almost all of them are neatly organized into battle, and no one is missing, men, women, and children. Even Zhu Zaikai and the little girl can't find a playmate at this time.

In front of the summer harvest, children also have tasks, such as helping to escort the car, bundling rice, delivering water and food, etc.

But different from the general busy, every family is basically filled with a sense of joy, this year's rice is growing well, seeing that the harvest is imminent, how not to make the villagers excited?

It was only in the evening that the sudden clouds accompanied by the cool south wind instantly broke the joy of the village. Although the rain has not yet fallen, the villagers have already rushed to the house with their families, hoping to grab a little more harvest from God's mouth.

At night, the heavy rain began to pour down, and not only the villagers in the village, but also the Liao Mansion rarely lost their smiling faces.

"God, this is grinding! "Although the old housekeeper lives in Jinling City all the year round, his family also farmed when he was a child, and he also managed the grange for a period of time when he was young. Of course, I know what kind of harm this heavy rain will do to the upcoming summer harvest if it does not stop in time.

By the next morning, the rain had lightened, but it didn't seem to stop.

Zhu Zaikai saw that his master did not mention his one-acre rice field again, and when he was bored, he ignored the light rain outside, and went out to play with his friends with a paper umbrella.

However, the little girl was wearing a pair of red and red newly embroidered shoes, hesitated for a long time, and finally was reluctant to stain the new shoes, stayed at home, took the initiative to teach to help "take the children", and taught the little ones to "recognize words" seriously.

As soon as the little girl's kindergarten "gardener" career began, Zhu Zai came back with a depressed face.

At this time, everyone was braving the light rain to harvest rice outside, where would they still have the time and mood to play with Zhu Zaikai?

"Let's all change our clothes! We also went and harvested the rice from the fields. Lichen changed into a peasant dress, and I don't know when he appeared in the hall, and called someone to call Zhu Zaikai and the little girl, and said.

"Sir, it's still raining outside! Our family doesn't have to worry about that acre of rice, if the lord is really reluctant, he can let his subordinates help take it back. "The old housekeeper is a little distressed by Zhu Zaikai and the little girl. In this era, there is a shortage of doctors and medicines, and if Zhu Zaikai and them suffer any serious illness because of this, it will really be too late to say anything.

"It doesn't matter! Just let the little ones know the hard work of the farmer and the difficulty of food." Lichen waved his hand.

"Hey! The little master and the young lady are both masters, where do you need to do this? The old butler sighed. My lord is a little willful, and he wants to do everything one by one, and the old housekeeper thinks he really can't understand his own master?

Lichen has never been in the field in his two lives, and Zhu Zaikai and the little girl are even more so, although Lichen is quite self-aware and invited a family member who has planted the field to teach, but the mud on that body alone is enough to make people choke. Not to mention, the sparse rice stalks of different lengths must have more grain falling in the mud than harvesting.

Half an acre of land was cut, and Zhu Zaikai and the little girl couldn't cut it. I don't force the dust, and someone will naturally help do the rest. But the two little guys, who had worked really hard, finally learned that farming was not so fun.

I don't know how many knife wounds there are on the hands of Zhu Zaikai and the little girl.

But when they returned home, they walked in the fields, but they saw villagers who were still busy.

Compared with the nature of their joking experience, the summer harvest is more related to their livelihood for a year.

"Master, can't you stop the rain?" Zhu Zaikai returned home, and after recovering his breath, he ran to the dust and asked.

"Yes, but Shigong stopped the rain here, the clouds in the sky haven't disappeared, he will run to other places, what about other places?" Lichen asked with a smile.

"Then you can take the clouds away, or rush to the place where it needs to rain!" Zhu Zaikai tilted his head and said innocently.

"Fool, don't say that your master doesn't have such a great ability, but there is, this year has passed, what about next year? And the year after? One year, two years, one hundred years. You can't run around every day to help them drive away the clouds and rain, right? Lichen replied with a serious face.

"Zai Kai!" Lichen touched Zhu Zaikai's head and said: "No matter whether you ask God to worship Buddha, whether these are useful or not, even if they are occasional, they are all expedient." If you want to save the people of the world from today's disaster, you have to find another way! ”

"What's the solution?" Zhu Zaikai hurriedly asked.

"First, let the officials below repair the water conservancy diligently, store the rainwater when there is a lot of rain, and release the stored rainwater when the rainwater is low. In this way, there will be no floods and droughts. The villagers' rice will grow well. There is also the need to find some people who know how to read the celestial calendar, and teach the villagers in the world, so that they can know in advance when it is likely to rain and when it will be sunny. If the villagers had known that it would rain in the next two days and had taken back the rice in advance, would there have been no such thing as today? Lichen explained.

"Can you see that, too?" Zhu Zaikai asked incredulously.

"Why not?" Lichen smiled: "For example, if there is no east wind or rain, and if there is no west wind, it will not be sunny." There are broken purple clouds in the morning, and thunderstorms are coming in the afternoon. The ashes of the grass are caked, and the wind and rain are coming, and so on. What you have to do is find people who know how to read the weather, and then make a book, and then teach it to the world. You don't have to be all right, as long as you can do most of it, won't it benefit all the villagers in the world? ”

Zhu Zai nodded.

"It's a science, a deep science. Not only the peasants needed it, but also the generals. The right time, the right place and the right people, this ability to predict the weather, is a kind of time of the day. If you have the opportunity, you can spread it out, and you have to find people to study it, record it, find their patterns, and then you can use it for the benefit of the people."

"Predicting the weather is also science, why didn't they say it," Zhu Zaikai asked.

"Master, the knowledge they teach is the most useless kind of learning. It's far worse than other knowledge," said Chen.

"Yes, yes." Zhu Zai Kai couldn't accept it.

"Everything in the world is learning, such as how to farm the land to produce more food, how to fight a war to defeat the enemy. How to control the river, how to make iron, how to make the horses run fast, how to make the cattle and sheep grow stronger, how to cure the disease, how to repair the house, and even how to make the clothes more beautiful are all considered to be learned.

"But, why is the knowledge in Shigong's mouth different from what others say?" asked Zhu Zaikai with dandruff.

"Do you think this knowledge is useful?" Lichen asked with a smile.

"Well, of course it is important to produce more food, it is also important to fight wars, it is also very important to govern the river, how to raise cattle and sheep is also okay, but what kind of Xu Xue is to repair houses and make clothes?" Zhu Zaikai asked puzzled.

"Food, clothing, shelter, transportation, marching and armament, heaven and earth are natural, where is there no learning?" Lichen sighed, and didn't explain so much to Zhu Zaikai. When Zhu Zaikai sees too much, he will naturally understand what he said to him today?

"The world can't just be an official!" Lichen sighed. looked at Zhu Zaikai and said, "You can find the little girl to play with them first!" Shigong still has something. ”

Zhu Zaikai left the dusty room with a confused head and a lawsuit.

Lichen breathed a sigh of relief, took out a pair of quaint tortoise shells from the Qiankun bag, and then stuffed six copper coins into it, shook it reverently, and shook it casually.

Negative, reversed, positive, reversed, positive, positive.

The dust was stunned, how could he hexagram such a hexagram casually?

Lichen casually put away the copper coin, looked at the clouds in the sky, and was still hesitating to help the people here. This hexagram came out. It's even harder to get rid of the dust.

Negative, reversed, positive, reversed, positive, positive. The hexagram name Fengshan gradually. Hexagram said: Pedestrians on the road are in the middle of winter, crossing the river without a bridge and walking on thin ice, being cautious and passing, and falling into the water with a wrong step. This hexagram means to make the person seeking divination be careful in everything. As a half-immortal person, even if he has a hexagram in his hand, it is also a heavenly appearance. How can you ignore it easily?

It's just that the dust is a little strange, where does the danger come from? (To be continued.) )
