Chapter 0004: Trivia
The Three Kingdoms are like fighting landlords, Zhuge Liang drew a good deck of cards for Liu Bei ("Longzhong Pair" established the founding policy of Shu), and two kings led four twos. Guan Yu dismantled the single belt of the four twos, just for the sake of coolness! Liu Bei was not convinced, and threw the two kings out again, just to blow up a single!
It's just insane!
After a battle of Yiling, the young Zhuang in Shu almost broke down. Fortunately, it was Shu Han who met Zhuge Lao Demon, a rare genius in Chinese history, and saved up Guan Yu and Liu Bei's defeated family little by little, so as to give Shu Han another few decades of life.
How much damage did those two failed wars do to Shu Han, Feng Yong only looked at the tenants in the village to know, and half of the people who went to the fields to cultivate were women. The strongest woman also secretly hid a bun on her chest, and when she found Feng Yongzheng looking at her, she immediately blushed and wanted to reach out and take it out, but it was too embarrassing to dig out her chest in front of everyone, and she stood there helplessly for a while.
"Take what you want, see what I do!" Feng Yong glared at the woman angrily, "In the past few days of wheat harvesting, the family has been open to eating, and the main family will not treat everyone badly. If you can't finish eating, you can take it back, and you won't be held accountable! ”
After saying this, he looked at everyone, only to see that the tenants had stopped eating and looked at him and listened to him carefully, and nodded with satisfaction at the moment, "But when you eat in the future, you must wash your hands before you can eat!" Whoever doesn't wash his hands will starve to death and pull down! Chamberlain! What about the housekeeper? Make a note of this and wash your hands from now on. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know what to do for a while - this master family used to have hysteria, and in recent days, although his behavior has been no different from ordinary people, maybe the old disease has recurred at this time? Otherwise, why is there so much attention to eating? Why do you inexplicably ask people to wash their hands before they can eat? In the past, who didn't come back from the ground and eat it with his hands?
"What? It doesn't work for the main family to speak, does it? Why don't you go and clean your hands, waiting to be whipped? An old man in gray clothes and coarse cloth appeared, it was the housekeeper of the Feng family, only to hear him shout in a deep voice, "A group of fools! Are you still afraid that the Lord's house will lack food for you two? ”
Everyone scattered like birds and beasts, and a half-sized boy wanted to stuff a mouthful of steamed buns into his mouth before he ran, but the stout woman grabbed him, slapped him twice, and dragged him away.
"The Lord is back?" After the old man waited for everyone to disperse, he stepped forward and saluted Feng Yong, his demeanor was smooth and natural, and he could see that he had come out of a big family before.
"Well, I'm back." Feng Yong nodded, the fishing rod and fish in his hand were forcibly taken over by the housekeeper, so he had to say as he walked, "Uncle Zhao has worked hard these days, I don't know much about this field, and I have to trouble Uncle Zhao to take care of it outside the house." ”
The housekeeper's surname is Zhao, I heard that he used to be the steward of a large family, and then the main family was exiled to the land of Nanban, as the son of the family, he was naturally implicated, if it wasn't for the fact that Feng Yong was rewarded by Liu Bei, he was singled out as a servant, but I am afraid that I don't know where to die in Nanban at this time.
"This is the duty of an old servant." The housekeeper is actually in his forties, but this year, he is already an old man in his forties, and when he heard Feng Yong's words, the wrinkles on his face stretched, "After this summer grain is harvested, our family has a warehouse of grain, which can be regarded as a real family." When the time comes, you have to find a child servant for the lord, otherwise the lord will have to do everything himself, which is really not decent, and others will say that the old servant is derelict in his duties. ”
Feng Yong smashed his mouth, and suddenly remembered the other two servants who were rewarded by the family, one was a cook, who was fatter than the strongest woman in the village, and the other was a servant who did rough work, but she was thinner, but she was only two or three catties thinner than the cook, which also reflected the fact that there was a lack of young and strong people in Shu, and even the servants who were rewarded tried to use women and old people.
Also, why do others come over at least with a little maid to accompany them, and they have to face either a strong woman or an old man, and they are really helpless. Now it's hard to improve, why a child servant? Why not a maid?
"Uncle Zhao will look at it." Feng Yong waved his hand weakly, and walked towards home in the lead.
In the past few months, Feng Yong has often been treated as a neuropath, but since this housekeeper arrived at Feng's house, he has not stayed away because of his strange words and deeds, but has taken care of and reminded him wholeheartedly, which makes Feng Yong especially grateful.
In this era, the fate of the servant is completely tied to the master, and if something happens to the master, the servant is not much better. In particular, Steward Zhao is still a reward from the emperor to the descendants of meritorious heroes, and if there is an accident, it is naturally fine, and if something happens, the first thing the local officials look for is him. Steward Zhao's dedication naturally has factors in this, but the care of this cannot be denied, so Feng Yong usually tries to respect Steward Zhao's opinion.
"Lord, the meal has been prepared in the kitchen, does the lord want to bathe himself or eat first?" A housekeeper who fell behind Feng Yong asked.
"Let's eat first. It's been a hungry day today. ”
In ancient times, there was a shortage of food, that is, it was not as good as modern times, and the meal could only be eaten in the morning and evening, and three meals were only the treatment of the emperor.
"The heat in the guest hall has not dissipated, it is too stuffy, the lord might as well go to the backyard to eat, it is cooler."
"Okay." Feng Yong nodded, it's good to have a caring housekeeper.
"Today, Li Tingchang came to the house and reminded our family to pay attention to the grain after the summer harvest......"
"Food? Didn't our family say that we don't need to pay food? This was said by His Majesty the Emperor when he rewarded him. ”
Feng Yong was a little surprised, could it be that he had met the legendary evil official? Specializing in bullying honest people? If that's the case, I'd really have to weigh the guts of the so-called pavilion chief. Zhuge Lao Demon governs Shu, the officials do not harbor treachery, and the road is not left behind, which is famous in the history of the Qing Dynasty. At this time, it was when Zhuge Old Demon had just taken power, and he must bow down to everything, presumably he didn't mind burning a fire.
"Okay, my lord, the land that His Majesty the Emperor rewarded in our family naturally doesn't need to pay grain," the housekeeper laughed in the back, "But don't forget, our family still has a hundred acres of land left by the ancestor in Xiali Village, which is to pay grain, and the old servant only replaced the land to Zhuangzi some time ago, which was reported to the lord." ”
"Oh, I forgot."
So I was wrong to say that I was wrong before, and my family actually has 600 acres of land?
His cheap Ah Weng saved a hundred acres of land for his family before he died, and then he worked hard to climb to the position of deputy general, and before he could sit down and start enjoying the life of a military general, he met Liu Bei, the emperor of Shu, and then, there was no more.
"Actually, there is still some time left for this summer grain, the old servant seems that this Pavilion Chief Li is just using an excuse to come to our house, he has ulterior motives." The housekeeper continued to nag in the back.
The Feng family is not big, but no matter how small the family is, there are trivial things, if it is necessary to let Feng Yong know, the housekeeper will nag Feng Yong before dinner. Feng Yong did not reject this, on the contrary, he still enjoyed this slow and peaceful pace of life, walking forward leisurely, and asked casually, "Oh, what is his intention?" ”
"He first talked about the payment of food, and then said that the lord has reached the age of marriage, and he should introduce the marriage, otherwise he will be fined at that time."
Feng Yong was stunned and asked in surprise, "Is this ...... Does the government still care about this? If you don't get married, you will be fined? What kind of truth is this? ”
Therefore, if you have no culture, you can't cross it casually, just like this Feng Yong, from time to time, a common-sense question pops out of his mouth that a child knows the answer, and he is not wronged if he is regarded as a neuropath.
"Oh, my lord, of course this government is in charge of this matter, when it comes to the age of marriage, if you don't get married, the government wants to be the official media, if you don't agree, you will be fined." The steward was sometimes really helpless about this lord, and sometimes he was desperate.
In these years, even if the part-time matchmaker in the government is forgotten, the red line has to be forcibly pulled, is it so humane? After changing the government of later generations, if you really want to take this measure, you will still be scolded every day? At least the parents of those who are left with boys and girls should be grateful to Dade.
