Chapter 1: The Angry Father
Chapter 1: The Angry Father
In the second year of Yuan Shuo, "in the first month of spring, the edict said: 'King Liang and King Chengyang are born together, and they are willing to divide their younger brothers with Yi, and they promise it.'" The princes and kings invite their sons and daughters, and I will see them in person, so that they will be ranked. ”
- This is a grace order!
The master father stood on the high embankment, looking down on the vast wasteland beneath his feet.
To be precise, this wasteland is not a wasteland, just under the high embankment, the peasants have already begun to work.
Although the sun in early spring is not vicious, it is also very uncomfortable, especially today, the direct sunlight makes the master father who has lived in the secret room for a long time and greedy for sunlight feel not so pleasant.
The farmers in the fields wore big straw hats, and the ploughing oxen walked slowly in front, and behind them, a plough easily broke through the soft soil and exposed the dark field to the sun.
Master Father Yan was no stranger to this kind of plough, that is, he used the Dasi Nong Yamen to spread this plough called Yuanshuo plough to the entire Guanzhong.
A cow had already ploughed the field under the embankment, and the farmer lifted his straw hat to wipe his sweat, then took the water hyacinth hanging on the plough, poured some water into a bamboo cup, and drank it happily.
Only then did the master father see clearly that this short farmer was only an eleven or twelve-year-old boy.
The boy was very different from the farmer to whom his father was accustomed to it, and although the boy was doing farm work, his clothes were neat, and even if he drank water, he had a great deal of law, instead of holding up the snow water in the puddle like a barbarian and drinking wildly.
When the hairy boy saw the Lang Jun standing on the embankment walking down, he arched his hand and said, "Lang Jun is lost?"
This place is the Yun Manor, a mile to the north is the Changmen Palace, and to the west through the woods, you can see the avenue, and Weishui is also there. ”
The master father paused for a moment, and bowed his hand and said: "A certain family is not lost, but when they saw Xiao Langjun plowing the fields, they felt something, so they came to greet them." ”
Mao Xiao smiled: "If you see every farmer being so polite, I'm afraid I won't have time to go home today." ”
The master father patted the Yuanshuo plow that was still standing in the field, and then looked at the fat plough pulling the plough and sighed: "Your family is already a family, right? ”
The hairy boy laughed and said: "My head of the family said that my family is still poor, I just have a shirt to cover my buttocks, and I just have a mouthful of gruel to fill my belly."
The Yun family must adhere to the policy of unchanged for a hundred years, insist that they are poor households for fifty years, and then see if the Yun family can become a middle household after fifty years. ”
The master father glanced at the hairy boy lightly and said: "There are cows, there are fields, and the plough is already a family of households, and your master's courage is inevitably too great, if you dare to report your household registration low, are you not afraid of the strict law of the king?" ”
Mao Zi said disdainfully: "I heard that the Great Han Kingdom is now implementing the household registration policy designated by a person called the master father.
If you follow his explanation, my Yun family is naturally a household, and it is nothing more than paying a few more dollars in taxes every year, you go to the government to inquire, how can the Yun family have less than those few dollars.
My master said that when he climbed Dongshan and Xiaolu, and climbed Mount Tai and the world, the person called the master father Yan also climbed a dirt and made this ridiculous household registration strategy, and that's it. ”
The master father laughed instead of being angry, stroked his beard and smiled: "But I don't know how your master distinguishes the upper, middle and lower three households?" ”
The hairy boy laughed loudly, thinking that this man seemed to be a fool, and telling him that the master's high opinion was tantamount to playing the harp to the cow.
Come to think of it. He laboriously loaded the plough in a two-wheeled cart, shouted at the ploughing ox, and the ploughing ox dragged the two-wheeled cart to the next piece of land.
The master said that if you don't talk to a fool or a soldier, it's better to plow an extra field than to have this kind of work.
"Well, boy, you can make it clear to someone!" The Father of the Lord, who had been ignored, was furious.
"Xiaolang, I don't tell fools, I will become stupid if I talk too much!"
The hairy boy just waved the straw hat in his hand, replied casually, and went to another field.
The master father Yan felt the naked ignorance given to him by the hairy child, and the anger in his chest rose, thinking that his master father Yan had his own wisdom and scheming, first the "Salt and Iron Order", accepting the world's wealth for the country, and issuing the "Tui En Order" to solve the disasters of the kings of the world, such a great feat was considered a fool!
Even if the master father is angry, it is not easy to see like a country boy, since this is said by Yun Lang, the head of the Yun family, then only look for him!
Hurriedly returned to Nagato Palace, the master father Yan was still angry, and could only sit under an awning angrily and drink the unique tea of Nagato Palace.
Dongfang Shuo hurriedly walked by the edge of the shed, and the master father drank a pot of tea, and Dongfang Shuo walked by the side of the shed, and the master father drank another pot of tea......
When he walked through the shed for the third time, Dongfang Shuo really couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and he wanted to know who made His Majesty's Inner Dynasty (Liu Che's advisory institution established in the palace, known as the Inner Dynasty by the history books) Prime Minister Yanneng like this.
"This is a cow drink, and the charm of drinking tea is ruined, and the middle doctor is promoted four times a year, so what is not satisfied."
Master Father Yan suddenly smiled and invited Dongfang Shuo to drink with him.
Dongfang Shuo sat opposite the master father Yan and laughed: "Lishan is like a horse, there are many demons in the mountain, and it is not surprising that the middle doctor encounters mountain spirits and ghosts. ”
The master's father pointed to the Yun manor on the edge of the Changmen Palace and said, "Brother, can you know who is next door?" What is the family wealth? ”
Dongfang Shuo took a sip of tea and shouted lightly, then poured out the old tea in the teapot, re-boiled a pot of tea, and said: "A poor family is just a broken family." ”
The master father pointed to the Yun family's tall painted pavilion and the houses with their scales and said, "This is what you said about the poor family's broken settlement?" ”
Dongfang Shuo carefully threw two pine cones into the small furnace and said: "That's true, Doctor Zhong asked Dongfang Shuo, Dongfang Shuo replied like this, asked Gillian nobleman, and Gillian nobleman replied the same." ”
The master father closed his eyes to calm his restless heart, and then pointed to the carved Nagato Palace and asked, "In that case, what is Nagato Palace?" ”
Da Changqiu happened to pass by the tea shed and laughed: "The family is just well-off!" ”
Dongfang Shuo looked at Da Changqiu and said with a smile: "I remember that the original evaluation seems to be extravagant, but in fact, it leaks everywhere when it is naked and wears a fur coat. ”
Da Changqiu said with a smile: "The head of the family here is a woman, so it is better to be more elegant." ”
Dongfang Shuo shook his head and said: "What you say is pertinent, what you say is wonderful, why can't you say it?" Even Gillian thinks so. ”
Seeing that the two were talking and laughing, the master seemed to have forgotten his existence, gritted his teeth and said: "The household value is 100,000 for the top, 50,000 for the middle, and the second for the inferior. ”
Dongfang Shuo said with a smile: "Because some people say that a family of five, two Ding Zhuang, two healthy women, and one young child, when there are 30 acres of upper fields, 20 acres of middle fields, 50 acres of barren fields, two bullocks, one donkey, four houses, a set of farm tools, five quintals of grain storage every year, 10,000 yuan of available money per year, the old have support, and the few have learning, so they are people!" - that is, the lower household. ”
The master father slammed his fist on the table and said angrily: "Shanghu is just like this, this person is very hateful, in order to exploit ......"
Halfway through the words of the master's father, he saw Dongfang Shuo looking at him with a smile, and suddenly woke up, the government has always only liked to turn the lower households into middle households, and the middle households into upper households, so that they can collect more taxes, and the upper households will become lower households, which will only be beneficial to the people, so how can they exploit it?
Da Changqiu said with a smile: "When others say this, the old man will definitely spit on his face."
The master of the Yun family said that the old man could only listen to it, when the Yun family came to Shanglin Yuan, the whole family was only five people, one strong man, one weak man, and three women, and a year later, the Yun family already had five hundred servants and millions of family wealth.
It is not surprising that he looks down on the household classification formulated by Dr. Zhongda, in the old man's opinion, after three years, the output of Yun's manor will be no less than 10,000 yuan.
Young people have the ability, and it is the right thing to say wildly, if the old man is successful, the old man will be afraid. ”
The master father said disdainfully: "Is there a person in the world who makes money out of thin air? ”
After saying that, he got up and brushed his sleeves away......
Sleeping in the spring breeze has always been Yunlang's expectation.
Today's sunshine is good to make people happy, take out the deck chair, thin quilt, and then call the tiger to lie beside him, Yun Lang covered his head and face with a thin quilt, and fell asleep in the warm sunshine.
Xiao Worm originally wanted to take the tiger to the pine forest for a walk, but when she saw that the tiger was sleeping soundly with the head of the house, she had to call Meng Da, and the two Meng brothers went to the pine forest with her to pick up the dried pine cones and come back to make tea.
Red Sleeves wrapped a pot of tea in a thick ball of linen cloth and placed it beside the head of the house, who has always had the habit of waking up to drink warm tea, and when he woke up, the hot tea in the teapot happened to be imported.
Seeing that the worm was with Meng Da and Meng Er went out, he hurriedly put on his backpack and followed the worm to play in the pine forest.
Spring is a busy season, Liu Po is busy drying silkworm seeds, Liang Weng is busy directing his family to plow the fields and sprinkle rapeseed in the wasteland, everyone is very busy.
For some reason, people who enter and leave the house, no matter how busy they are, will consciously relax their steps and smile when they see the head of the house sleeping soundly in the sun.
Yun Lang no longer has to work, and half of the children in the family can easily control the plough and ploughshare, and although they are tired every day, they regard farming as a kind of fun.
Whose head of the house will work in the fields?
Liang Weng, Liu Po and others don't work in the field anymore, and the family mainly works again, so how can they deal with themselves?
I didn't lose the face of the knighthood!
When Huo Quai, Li Kang, and Cao Xiang walked in from outside tiredly, Yun Lang just woke up, stretched his waist and asked Huo Quai: "Let's play mahjong at night, right?" ”
Huo Qu shook his head indifferently, pointed to the barracks in the distance and said, "Patrol the camp!" ”
Li Dare saw Yun Lang looking at him, and hurriedly said: "Take a bath and eat some food, I have to go to see the construction process of my family's Zhuangzi, I don't have time." ”
Cao Xiang snorted coldly and said, "My mother will come over at night!" ”
