Chapter Ninety-Eight: First Encounter with Liu Renliang (I)

"Father's words are reasonable, the more I look at it now, the more I feel that Nanshan College is incomparably grandiose, and the teacher said that I will invite my father and mother to watch it on the day of school."

"By the way, there's another thing that the minister almost forgot." Princess Changle suddenly said solemnly.

"Oh, what else?"

His Majesty Li Er saw Princess Changle's solemn expression, and hurriedly asked.

"The teacher said that the four big characters at the entrance of the college must be given ink by the emperor himself."

"My father thought it was such a big deal, so I could tell Chang'an Hou that I agreed to give ink."

His Majesty Li Er said to Princess Changle with a smile.

"The son is the teacher, thank the father." Princess Changle said respectfully.

"Our family's Changle is now almost with his teacher." His Majesty Li Er looked at Empress Eldest Sun and said.

"No, the concubine thinks so too." Empress Eldest Sun pursed her lips and said with a smile.

"Queen Mother, you have finished reading the teacher's Spring River Flower Moon Night, and Erchen wants to hang it in Erchen's room."

"After reading it, the queen mother knows that you want to collect it, and she has already sent Luzhu to take it for the chamberlain to frame it."

"Thank you, Queen Mother. The queen mother is so wonderful. Princess Changle said with a happy smile.

The potato seedlings on the farm have grown to a height of more than a foot.

The green potato seedlings are swaying in the autumn wind.

Just like the green waves, it's beautiful.

Cabbage and radish are also thriving.

The whole farm is full of greenery, which makes people forget to return and feel relaxed.

The big ones in the pond have grown about a foot long, and the small ones have more than a palm.

Thousands of chicks, the rooster's comb has become noticeably red and big.

A few red-eyed roosters are biting each other in the coop.

Shocked by chicken feathers!

Tao Ran sat on the pavilion halfway up the mountain, looking at this picturesque scenery.

Deeply intoxicated in the warm sun of late autumn.

Suddenly, a figure broke into Tao Ran's field of vision.

A young man in his twenties walked towards the foot of the mountain with difficulty.

He came all the way on foot from Henan Road.

It's hard to imagine how much perseverance and faith a person has to have to walk thousands of miles to get here.

When the young man saw the rippling blue pond, he suddenly quickened his pace.

He crouched by the river, holding the water in both hands.

"Knock, knock." Drink it up.

Looking at his unkempt self in the pond, the young man squatted down again and carefully washed his face.

A delicate and handsome face gradually emerged.

A few fat fish jumped out of the water, as if to welcome the arrival of the youth.

After the replenishment of water, the youth is obviously much more energetic.

He walked to the top of the pond and found himself in a paradise.

He slapped twice on the chest, proving that he was not dreaming.

"This son, may I ask if you are passing by here?"

Zhang Ming, who was leading the laborers to pull weeds for pigs and sheep and prepare feed, saw the young man asking.

"Sorry to interrupt, how far is it from Chang'an City?"

The young man asked humbly.

"It's not far, it's not far, the official road in front of you goes all the way to the east, and I don't hear the accent of the son being a local."

Zhang Ming pointed to the official road in front of him and said to the young man.

"Thank you Brother Tai for your advice, I am from Henan, and I saw that the notice said that Nanshan College in Chang'an City was recruiting teachers and students, and I came to try my luck."

The young man bowed to Zhang Ming and was about to turn around and leave.

"Childe, go slowly, it's really a coincidence, the Nanshan College that Childe is going to is the academy opened by my family's Hou Ye. Childe doesn't have to go to Chang'an City, but it's even more inconvenient. ”

Zhang Ming said with a smile.

"Nanshan Academy, is it the academy opened by your Hou Ye?" The young man asked in a shocked tone.

"Yes, it is indeed the academy opened by my lord, and Childe is the first foreigner to sign up for the academy."

"Then this piece of land, this unknown plant, and the vegetable field in the distance, and the pond are all Hou Ye's?" The young man asked curiously.

"You said that green plant, that is a mu yield of thousands of catties of food, the name is potatoes, but my Hou Ye personally experimented successfully, this 5,000 acres of land is Hou Ye's."

The young man gasped, his eyes almost popping out. "Brother Tai, don't bully me into a foreigner? How can there be thousands of catties of food per mu in this world? ”

"I know you don't believe it, I didn't believe it at the beginning, you will know the result in less than two months, this is the second planting this year, and I didn't have a chance to see it the first time!"

Zhang Ming sighed and said.

"This mu yields thousands of catties of food, and can it be planted for two seasons?" The young man said word by word, almost biting his tongue.

"Okay, I can't explain it to you very clearly, do you see the academy built halfway up the mountain? Hou Ye is on it to check the construction progress, if the son really came to sign up as a college teacher, he can go up to Hou Ye to ask in person. ”

After Zhang Ming finished speaking, he turned around and was about to go to the opposite wasteland to pull weeds.

"Thank you Brother Tai for your advice, if you can stay, you will definitely invite Brother Tai to eat and drink in the future." After speaking, the young man bowed deeply to Zhang Ming again.

Tao Ran witnessed all this with his own eyes on the pavilion on the mountainside, and his affection for this polite young man doubled.

The young man walked up the stone steps, and in a short time he was sweating profusely, and the young man had barely eaten for three days.

In a trance, the young man lost consciousness and fainted on the stone steps.

By the time the young man woke up again, it was already early morning the next day.

A little girl sat next to her and watched the young man slowly open his eyes.

"This son, you're awake. Come, drink this bowl of porridge first. My brother said you were tired and hungry and fell into a coma. ”

Erya carefully brought the meat porridge that was still steaming slightly to the hands of the young man who was already struggling to sit up.

The young man smelled the meat porridge with a rich smell of meat and exhaled a few deep breaths.

Spooned to the mouth, a taste that has never been experienced before, immediately spreads through the taste buds throughout the nervous system.

The young man didn't care to maintain his demeanor, and pulled it up vigorously with a spoon in his mouth.

The mouth makes a "tsk" click.

provoked the second girl, pursed his lips and smiled.

"Childe, wait a minute, I'm going to serve you a bowl."

Erya saw the young man gobbling up and knew that the young man must be very hungry, so he got up and left and went to the kitchen.

It wasn't until the young man finished pulling the second bowl of meat porridge brought by Erya with a spoon that he let out a heavy breath.

"Thank you for the girl's life-saving grace, Liu Renliang will remember the girl's great kindness for the rest of his life, and he will never dare to forget it."
