The stones in the first-line gorge obviously don't seem to be much, but Wu Zheng and everyone have been clearing it for seven days, which makes Wu Zheng, who was sitting by the fire and chatting with Xia Lao at this time, have to sigh at the insignificance of manpower, if there is an excavator, such a job may not be enough for people to do for a day.

But now He Lao Wu and they can only carry it on their shoulders, and when they encounter a larger stone, they have to burn the fire under the stone, and when the stone is hot, they will use cold water to pour it into several small stones that can be carried by manpower, and then carry it to the board cart and push it to the hill together.

The morning fog has dispersed, but the sun has not yet come out, which makes Wu Zheng feel that the autumn sun is going to come out later than the summer, sitting by the fire, Xia Lao's chicken called Hua has finished eating, and at this time he is pecking at the bone like a child with a chicken bone in his mouth, it seems that the habit of this old man's good mouth is really not made up by Liu Dongqing.

Liu Dongqing also sat by the fire to roast the fire, but Wu Zheng really didn't have any eyesight, is it interesting to sit and bake the fire like this? Don't you see that your mentor is bored pecking bones all morning? I don't know how to bring some tea, simmering a pot of hot tea by this fire in such a weather is a pleasure to think about!

I don't believe that your teacher's carriage doesn't have these things, what a fool, but it's lucky, he actually worships under a great Confucian like Xia Lao, and I don't know if this guy put gold on his face, anyway, so many Wu Zheng didn't hear Xia Lao say that he was his own disciple.

If that's true, then isn't this idiot a brother with Emperor Lao Tzu?

"Do you have hemorrhoids under your buttocks? Why do you always sit restlessly? Xia Lao glanced at Wu Zheng with a bone in his mouth and said.

Wu Zheng said with a smile: "Master Xia, I think it's a bit of a waste to sit here and roast such a good fire." ”

Xia Lao smiled, and didn't care about the change in Wu Zheng's name for him, for Wu Zheng's shameless deadlift relationship, his old man was happy to pretend to be confused, because he now thinks that Wu Zheng's little offspring is really a very interesting little offspring.

"Then why don't you use your method of roasting chickens to burn a sheep for the old man?" Xia Lao glared and said, looking like a naughty child.

Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "Master Xia, you are old and old, and you just ate chicken and sheep again, and your old stomach can't be restrained!" It would be nice to have a cup of hot tea, which is just right to give you a quick break. ”

After speaking, Wu Zheng looked at Liu Dongqing, who was poking into the fire with a stick, and he didn't know if he was bored or angry at this time, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt a little like a little resentful woman who was snubbed by a man.

Liu Dongqing seemed to feel Wu Zheng's gaze, and looked up at Wu Zheng, he was at a loss, he didn't know why this big mallet was staring at him so much. subconsciously looked at Xia Lao next to him.

Xia Lao shook his head gently, and then laughed, as if his old man suddenly thought of something happy, and said: "There is no tea, but there are a few courgettes, Dongqing went to the car to bring those courgettes." ”

Wu Zheng later learned that the courgette in the population of this era does not only refer to a kind of melon called courgette, but all melons from the Hu people can be called courgette, such as watermelon, cantaloupe and cucumber, when they first entered the Central Plains, they were all called courgette, and only after planting a few years after being familiar with the Chinese people will they be given a new name, distinguishing it from other courgettes.

Liu Dongqing felt bitter hatred for Wu Zheng's style of knocking out his twenty taels of silver and deceiving his teacher to eat courgette, but in front of Xia Lao, he still behaved like a good student, so that people couldn't see anything wrong, and after giving a junior salute respectfully to his old man, he went to the car to get the courgette.

That's right, Liu Dongqing just did the junior ceremony, not the disciple ceremony, which is still clear to Wu Zheng, who has been living in this world for a few months and has other people's memory fragments in his mind, so he couldn't help but laugh in his heart, this guy was really sticking gold on his face before!

I'll just say it! How could the dignified emperor accept apprentices indiscriminately, even if he was willing to do so, I was afraid that the emperor in the temple would not agree!

"What the hell are you kid up again?" Xia Lao followed Wu Zheng's gaze and glanced at Liu Dongqing, retracted his gaze and couldn't help but ask funny.

Wu Zheng said with a smile: "The junior of Xia Shi is thinking, 'Shibei three days, not Wu Xia Ameng.'" That's a good point. ”

"You kid has also watched "Three Kingdoms"?"

"Hehe, the younger generation is just flipping through it when I'm bored, and see if I can write a book like the Three Kingdoms from this, which would have been sold for a little money and spending."

The old man said unhappily: "You see that the kid is also a scholar, why do you open and close your mouth and never leave the copper smell?" ”

Wu Zheng sighed: "Master Xia is not afraid of your jokes, boy, I also want to pretend to be tall!" But if you don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, people live in the world, food, clothing, housing and transportation, which of these four things can be done without money? Xia Shi can laugh if he wants to laugh! ”

"If you hadn't seen Dongqing's kid twenty taels of silver before, the old man would really be a frank and unrestrained group. Now it seems that you are a real boy, and you can talk about money so reasonably. ”

"Whether it's a villain or a gentleman, there's no way for a kid! We have to recognize that this person is poor, and only those who know that they are poor know how to get rich. The terrible thing is that I don't dare to face the reality even though I am poor, that is the most fatal. ”

"Hehe, you kid is really crooked."

"Hehe, the kid is just boring, you should always listen to a joke."

Liu Dongqing came back after a while, only to see that he was holding a few red bumps with mud in his hands, Wu Zheng didn't care about it at first, but when he got closer, he couldn't help but stand up all of a sudden.

Pointing to the courgette in Liu Dongqing's hand, he said, "Master Xia, this is what you always say?" We have this thing in Da Zhou now? ”

"Why do you know this?" Looking at Wu Zheng's surprised look, Xia Lao couldn't help but be interested.

Of course Wu Zheng recognized it, because the lump of mud in Liu Dongqing's hand was clearly a sweet potato, Wu Zheng looked up at the sky and was sure that he was in the Great Zhou Dynasty! Even if you count it according to time, this time is the Northern Song Dynasty, but isn't sweet potatoes supposed to be available in the Wanli year of the Ming Dynasty? Why did it appear in the Great Zhou Dynasty now? Could it be that Wu Sansi's little stone seed not only affected the land of Shenzhou, but even Meizhou was implicated by him?

"Master Xia, where did you come from?" Wu Zheng said.

Xia Lao touched his beard and said with a smile: "Since this thing is called a courgette, it is naturally obtained from the hands of the Hu people, kid, didn't you ask knowingly?" ”

"Hehe, what Xia Shi said is, is it just that we have more courgettes in the Great Zhou Dynasty?" Wu Zheng asked.

Xia Lao pointed to Liu Dongqing's hand and said, "It's all here." ”

Wu Zheng counted only six, and they were not big, but the unimproved land melons didn't seem to be big, and they were better than grass roots, but the smaller they were, the more starchy they were, and the more delicious they were.

Xia Lao smiled: "Boy, didn't you just say that it's a pity for this fire?" Let's roast courgette now, wouldn't it be a pity? This thing tastes good, would you like to try it? ”

Looking at Xia Lao's pair of old fox-like eyes, Wu Zheng said: "Master Xia, should the kid have to spend money to buy this courgette if he wants to eat it?" ”
