Chapter 224: The Moonrise Shines in the Shadows

After hearing this, the man's expression was a little surprised: "Now that the rice is not fully ripe, can it be harvested?" ”

"It's not fully ripe, but when the green and yellow are not harvested, there is no rice to put in the pot, if you borrow rice, you want to repay the high interest, it is better to harvest some of your own fields first, you can also make up and eat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Yu Gou'er patiently explained.

The man finished eating the rice crackers in a few bites and said, "It tastes good." ”

Yu Gou'er's mouth grinned and said, "This is my wife's good craftsmanship, and other people's families can't make it so delicious." Because unripe rice has a sour and astringent taste, it is necessary to soak it in cold water for a day and a night, and it is necessary to put in licorice to soak together, so as to remove the sour and astringent taste. ”

The man nodded and said, "You will always suffer a loss if you harvest early." ”

"But no," Yu Gou'er said a little angrily: "If you harvest early, you can originally collect 100 catties of land, but now you can only collect 70 catties." However, even this is better than borrowing usury, after all, it is your own thing, and you will harvest one acre early to save the emergency, and then collect the others when you are mature. ”

The man looked at the approaching twilight in the distance and said, "Brother Tai, let's go." ”

So the two got up and walked again, because the branches and leaves in the mountains and forests were dense and the light was dim, their steps slowed down, and Yu Gou'er saw the opportunity again, and Zhang's family Li Jiaxiao said that the man was good-tempered and had been listening patiently.

Usually at home, Yu Gou'er only listens to his wife's nagging, and can't interject at all, but today he has said everything he has been holding back for several years, and his heart is indescribably comfortable.

Seeing that he was at the entrance of the village, he was a little reluctant to give up, and said: "Master Jun, if you don't dislike it, come to my house to eat a bowl of tea and then leave, under the big mulberry tree at the entrance of the village is my home." ”

The big man took off the big basket on horseback and handed it to him, hugged his fists and said, "Because I have official business, I can't delay." Brother, today's matter, I will thank you for it in the future! With that, he turned over his horse and galloped away.

Yu Gou'er was a little disappointed when he saw him leave like a gust of wind, but this was also what he expected. Fortunately, the man finally said, "Thank you!" ”。

These words are imprinted in the dog's heart like a soldering iron: "If this military master comes to thank me one day, I will definitely take him back and forth from the widest road in the village, so that the third child of the Wang family who has laughed at me, and the old man Zhang who has trampled on my land with cattle will all see, although I have no son, I can also recognize the people in the barracks, or riding horses, and see if they dare to underestimate me in the future." ”

With a mulberry leaf basket on his back, Yu Gou'er walked towards the village, still thinking in his heart as he walked: "I just led the way, I don't know what this military master can take to thank me......"

Let's say that Zhao Yuan got on the horse over there, maybe the stamina of the liquor he drank just now came up, he felt that his body was light and fluttering, and it was quite comfortable to ride on the horse and let the evening breeze blow.

Turning around a valley, I saw the chamberlains standing in line, waiting in place, but from mid-day until dark, and the emperor had not yet returned, and everyone had a look of anxiety and panic on their faces.

Seeing them, Zhao Yuan said with some embarrassment: "The scenery in the mountains is pleasant today, so I will be nostalgic for a while, so you will wait for a long time." ”

After that, he thought to himself, he has not been lost for more than ten years, and he doesn't know how it is today...... But it's okay...... It's a worthwhile trip.

At this time, there were a few muffled thunders faintly in the clear night, and the captain of the guard stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the weather in the mountains is changeable, and there may be rain in a while, so please return to the camp early." ”

Zhao Yuan nodded, led a team of internal soldiers, and rushed towards the Qi army camp that was lit up with a little fire in the distance.

Although he knew that his father was in a bad mood due to the obstacles of the war, he took the inner guards out for a walk, and did not come back until dark, Fuyue still began to worry. He was afraid that there would be any accidents, so after arranging everything in the camp, he brought his own soldiers, dressed neatly, and immediately waited at the gate of the camp with a plum blossom gun in his hand.

didn't wait long, and saw Zhao Yuan and his entourage coming back in the night, with smoke and dust billowing out, Fu Yue turned over and dismounted, and knelt down to greet him.

Zhao Yuan saw him like this, also got off the horse, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "I haven't aged to this point yet. ”

Fu Yue was a little embarrassed for a while, and he didn't know how to answer, so he could only follow behind his father stupidly.

After entering the tent, it was raining outside, and seeing that his father had been running around for a day, he would definitely rest early, and Fuyue wanted to retire after asking for peace. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yuan stopped him: "You and I will take a look at the map along the Qin River." ”

The Qin River originates in the territory of Tubo and flows through Yiguo, Korea, Lu and Weiguo, and the higher terrain of Weiguo is considered the upper reaches of the Qinjiang River.

After looking at the map, Zhao Yuan rarely, a smile appeared on his face, Fu Yue watched from the side, and wanted to ask but still held back.

In the early morning of the next day, the villagers who went out to work along the lower reaches of the Qinjiang River found that the water in the Qinjiang River had risen a lot. This is not surprising, every year, the water level of the Qinjiang River has to rise, and the intermittent rain has not stopped in the past few days.

A few hours later, when they returned from their farm work, they found that the water level of the Qinjiang River had risen by 30%. At this time, everyone panicked and rushed to tell each other, and everyone rushed to the embankment, carrying sand and stones, and working together to strengthen the embankment.

In the capital of Yiguo, Yiguo Hou has been singing every night recently, and he is living happily. He had received a secret letter from the Taifu of Qi State, knowing that the Qi army was about to run out of food and grass, and the letter also vaguely hinted that he should not panic at this time, and the court of Qi State might soon be replaced.

The rise in the water potential of the Qinjiang River was suppressed by the officials of the previous dynasty before it was reported to Yiguohou. They believe that Yiguohou has been in a good mood recently, and they can't use these things to worry about him, and besides, Yiguo is in the upper reaches of the Qinjiang River, and the rise in the water level in the lower reaches has little to do with Yiguo.

Like Yiguo's response, countries in the lower reaches of the Qinjiang River have not paid much attention to the rising water level. First, the water level of the Qinjiang River rises every year in this season, which is not surprising.

Second, although the Qi army temporarily retreated, it had no intention of withdrawing, and was entrenched on the border of the defense of the country waiting for an opportunity, and the focus of all countries was to prevent the Qi army from attacking here.

At this time, except for Fuyue in the Qi army camp, the other generals did not know that the grain and grass were about to run out, and they were all strictly guarding their posts, waiting for Zhao Yuan's order, and leading the army to the front line at any time.

Fuyue led his own soldiers to patrol the camp, and when he saw that the camp was orderly and the morale of the army was stable, he felt a little comforted.

Last night, my father ordered the Zhouyan Canal to be dug to divert water to the Qinjiang River, raising the water level in the lower reaches of the Qinjiang River. Fuyue thought that there were other auxiliary measures, but he didn't expect that after his father only gave this order, he went back to the inner tent to rest.

At present, the war is tight, and the matter of grain and grass is imminent, can it be solved by just one Qinjiang?

Fu Yue didn't know the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't express his worries in front of his father, so he had to secretly send someone to check the grain storage situation in the Weiguo grain depot, although his father promised to do nothing against them when he entered the Weiguo, but he couldn't care so much about the edge of life and death.
