Chapter 34: Domineering Leakage
Everyone hurriedly turned their heads, and saw a man sitting on a white horse, with a handsome face with a murderous aura, holding a horsewhip in his hand and pointing at the old woman.
The scene was silent for a moment, and Uncle Wang hurriedly knelt down with Xiao Tao: "Greetings to the young general!" The rest of the people also knelt down, and the old woman was frightened, and trembled her lips and did not dare to speak.
Zhou Muhan turned over and dismounted, glanced at Gu Xinyu who was holding a wooden stick in his hand, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and then his face sank again, and when he walked into the crowd, the Ugin horsewhip pointed at the man on the ground, and said word by word: "If you don't die, get up, if you die, I don't mind whipping the corpse!" ”
The man on the ground was already listening to the movement, but he didn't dare to pretend anymore at this time, so he jumped up from the ground, saw the murderous Zhou Muhan in front of him, and knelt on the ground with a plop: "The general spares his life, the general spares his life!" ”
Zhou Muhan put away the horsewhip, stood with his hands in his hands, and smiled coldly: "Get out!" ”
The man pulled up his mother and stumbled away, walked a few steps, stopped again, looked at the woman hiding behind the sister-in-law of the Du family, wanted to scold but didn't dare to scold, just said to Zhou Muhan flatteringly: "Young General, the little one wants to take his daughter-in-law home"
"No way!" Gu Xinyu stepped forward and joked, let the woman go back at this time, I don't know what it will be like to be beaten. ”
"Your daughter-in-law is now hired by me, and she wants to leave before she finishes her work, how can there be such a cheap thing, if you want to take it away, you can take it away, and take a hundred taels of silver to compensate for the loss!"
The man blurted out, "One hundred taels? The small one cost her a tael or two. ”
Bought? Gu Xinyu became even more angry, and pointed at the man with a wooden stick: "Get out if you don't have any money." ”
The man looked at the angry general and Gu Xinyu, didn't dare to say any more, and pulled his mother to stumble away
instructed the sister-in-law of the Du family to take the injured woman back to the temporary shack, and asked Xiao Tao to go to the town to pick up the doctor, then thought about it and asked the beaten woman: "Do you want to go back with your man?" ”
The woman fell to her knees, lifted her red and swollen face, and cried, "Please, little boy, I can't go back with him, please save me"
Gu Xinyu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhou Muhan, and saw that he didn't speak, so he ordered the sister-in-law of the Du family to help her in and take good care of her.
Zhou Muhan walked leisurely towards the farmhouse, with a fart and prosperous wealth at his feet, Gu Xinyu stomped his foot and followed.
When he arrived at the door, Zhou Muhan saw Gu Xinyu still carrying a wooden stick in his hand, and looked at her with a smile: "I really don't know, the eldest lady of the Gu family still has this ability." ”
Gu Xinyu's face flushed, he hurriedly threw the stick aside, and looked at the sky, oh, the sky is so blue!
Zhou Muhan walked under the toon tree, followed by Wang Yi hurriedly stepped forward, brushed down the chair with his sleeve, and whisked another one, Zhou Muhan did it steadily, and jumped on his lap with great wealth, Zhou Muhan looked at the four mud claws with disgust, and didn't say anything, Wang Yi next to him was very surprised, except for the fact that his master was not particular about the rapid march, he was very clean at other times.
Gu Xinyu looked at Zhou Muhan, who was teasing Wangcai, and walked up to him: "Thank you for what happened just now."
"No thanks, you're pretty majestic!"
"Uh" Gu Xinyu's eyes widened, turned around and sat on another chair, no longer polite, and asked directly, "What are you doing here?" ”
Zhou Muhan looked down at the little snow wolf with blinking eyes: "Can you understand us?" ”
Wangcai nodded vigorously, Zhou Muhan raised his eyebrows lightly, and smiled lightly at Gu Xinyu: "You picked up a baby!" ”
Gu Xinyu's heart skipped a beat, this man had nothing to laugh about, and he smiled so beautifully
"Of course, this little guy is very ruthless, and now the rabbits and pheasants in the back mountains are so frightened that they run deep into the mountains." Gu Xinyu said.
"Now it's still young, and when it grows up, the tigers in the mountains and forests are not its opponents!"
"Really?"
"Really!"
"How do you know? By the way, have you ever seen a snow wolf? ”
Wangcai stared at Zhou Muhan a little nervously.
He frowned slightly, thought for a while and said: "I have also seen it on a picture scroll, one big and one small, the small one is almost exactly the same as Wangcai, and you see" Zhou Muhan pointed to Wangcai's ears: "Its ears are high up, and it looks like a little wolf!" ”
Gu Xinyu nodded, and then remembered that he hadn't answered his words yet.
"Is there anything wrong with you coming to my shabby farmstead?"
Zhou Muhan put Wangcai on the ground and turned his head to look at Gu Xinyu who was puffing up.
"It's fine!"
Wang Yi
Gu Xinyu
The little snow wolf is prosperous
Zhou Muhan, who had nothing to do, looked at the lively construction site in the distance, and then looked at the conservatory not far away, according to the secret guard's report, the young lady's conservatory is a cornucopia, and it is said that a watermelon can be sold for ten taels of silver in Rongcheng.
Yes, when I went back to visit my father yesterday, my mother kindly gave herself a few pieces of watermelon, saying that a piece of watermelon would cost one or two silver!
Zhou Muhan covered his mouth and coughed lightly.
Unexpectedly, he saw Gu Xinyu's moist eyes looking at him, so he said to Gu Xinyu: "Why don't you take me to see your Zhuangzi?" ”
Gu Xinyu stood up and walked forward happily, his graceful posture was full of heroism, with an indescribable taste.
Gu Xinyu led him to visit his greenhouse first, and when he saw Ashu, Gu Xinyu carefully observed Zhou Muhan's expression.
Zhou Muhan instinctively felt that the person in front of him was not a farmer, but the other party did not raise his head, but just kept watering the watermelons in the field, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and gave Wang Yi a look, and Wang Yi understood.
Along the way, Gu Xinyu introduced him to the house he wanted to build and the crops in the field, until Zhou Muhan asked to see the rice field.
Gu Xinyu stopped and smiled slightly: "Actually, General, you came to see the rice field!" ”
Zhou Muhan was slightly embarrassed, and then admitted it calmly.
"Yes!"
After a pause, he said: "Because Rongcheng has not grown rice since ancient times, now all the rice eaten by Rongcheng people is transported from the south of the Yangtze River, and when it comes here, the price has increased several times, not to mention ordinary people, even tens of thousands of soldiers in our military camp are difficult to eat."
Yes, Zhou Muhan is not afraid of going to the battlefield, he is afraid of the sergeants who can't eat enough on the battlefield!
Every year, the grain and grass of the army are the top priority, but for many reasons, only half of the imperial court has been allocated, and the remaining half has to be solved by the Rongcheng Supervisor himself, due to weather reasons, the grain output in the north is not high, and the grain collected is very small, and it needs to be deployed in Jiangnan, and there is Gu Jinyu in Jiangnan in the past few years, so it is relatively easy to collect and transport grain.
The current prefect is the younger brother of Queen Wang, who is greedy, and he is a sworn enemy with his second uncle Zhou Tianjun, so the food in the military camp has always been a headache!
Gu Xinyu looked at Zhou Muhan, who was frowning and thinking, and thought for a while: "Then I'll take you to see another field first." ”
Because the road was a little far, Uncle Wang drove the carriage, and Zhou Muhan followed behind on horseback, and soon came to the one acre of cornfield.
Zhou Muhan looked at the corn seedlings in front of him, and was a little surprised, very ordinary crops, is there another mystery?
Gu Xinyu pointed to the green seedlings in front of him, and said proudly: "This is corn, you may not have heard of it, because no one has planted it in the Zhou Dynasty, and I also saw it by chance from a miscellaneous book, and by chance, this corn seed was bought back by Uncle Wang."
Gu Xinyu looked at Zhou Muhan seriously: "The most important thing is that corn is a high-yield crop, and in a year with good weather and wind, the yield per mu can reach thousands of catties!" ”
Zhou Muhan, who heard this at first glance, was shocked, and the yield per mu was 1,000 catties? What is this concept? Because the grain and grass in the Rongcheng military camp has always been a heart disease, Zhou Muhan is no stranger to farming, on the contrary, he is very familiar with it, he is very familiar with the yield per mu of many crops, and he will yield more than 100 catties per mu in a good year.
Looking at the bright and proud woman in front of him, Zhou Muhan couldn't help but be curious about her, but unfortunately he didn't expect that this curiosity was a lifelong concern!
