Chapter Twenty-Three: This Year's Spring Service Comes to My House

"Thousands of miles of warblers cry green and red, and the water village mountain Guo wine flag wind.

There are 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties, and how many buildings are in the smoke and rain. ”

Xu Qing got up early in the morning and recited a song of Du Mu's "Early Spring" in the posture of a great man.

"Young master, you read like the spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, isn't your hometown here?" Xiao Yue asked cautiously, she knew a lot of words, and she was relatively educated, so she should have a high status in the palace, and now she can be regarded as the little housekeeper of Xu Qing's family.

"Have you ever been to Gangnam?" Xu Qing did not answer.

"I'm from Jiangnan...... When Zhu Cang was the emperor, he took many women into the palace, and I was among them, and then I was sent to the Tang Palace......" Xiaoyue said: "Xiaoru also came like this."

"Want to go home?" Xu Qing turned his head and asked.

"No, my home is gone......"

"Oh, that's where you are, and I can't go back to my home......"

"Young Master......"

Xu Qing Gate:

"This is it, the ...... in Master Xu's house" Uncle Zheng led the four people to the door of Xu's mansion with a worried face, but it didn't seem that he was worried about Xu Qing.

"Well, okay, I'll see what kind of handsome ......" Hu Lizheng said indignantly, he was fooled by Hu Fu for a few words, thinking that someone in the Xu Mansion looked down on the Hu family, and brought Steward Zhao and two retinues to find trouble.

"Yes, yes, I have already reported the name of the master at that time, but this young master still doesn't give face, Master Hu, although it is small, but I have to teach a lesson, right?" The person who came was Steward Zhao, who had been to Xuzhuang, and he signaled and asked Uncle Zheng to report the news.

"Well, there's a grain job up there, and it's going to be sent to the north." Huli is saying fiercely.

At this time, Uncle Zheng had already reported the situation to Liu San, and Liu San reported it to Xu Qing. Xu Qing instructed: "When the lower official sees the upper official, he should hand over the post first, not to mention that he is not an official!" Uncle Zheng will no longer come out.

The four people outside the door waited for a long time, but they didn't see the person who reported the news coming back, and they noticed an accident: "Why hasn't this old man Zheng come out yet, it's hard to make this Xu Mansion a few miles deep......

"I think it's Old Man Zheng and the Xu family discussing how many gifts to give!"

"Lao Zhao, knock on the door again......"

Steward Zhao walked to the door, knocked and shouted

"Open the door quickly, Lord Hu is visiting~"

"Who, do you have a post?" Liu San came back through the door, Xu Qing was also behind the door, dressed in a military attache uniform, with a horizontal knife on his waist, and a group of women also followed behind to make a service, Xu Qi and Xun Xueer were also among them, today Xu Qing is going to enjoy the pleasure of a slap in the face.

"It's a good Xu Mansion, a cheap merchant who goes all over the world, and he doesn't give me face like this......" If Hu Lizheng used to come to find trouble for the sake of maintaining the family, now he is really angry, he thought to himself: I have eaten behind closed doors for many years, and this is going to be spread, where is the prestige of the imperial court? What a shame for me!

"Left and right, slam the door for me!" Hu Li said impatiently.

"Whoa!" The two entourages found a big stone somewhere, and wanted them to smash it empty-handed, don't think about it, they are retinues, but they are just entourage, the fox and the fake tiger are more powerful than the other, and the real knives and guns are more intimidating than the other. But just as the two attendants were about to slam on the door, a majestic voice came from behind the door.

"Who dares to go wild in front of this official?"

"Hmph, this year's spring service is here, and your Xu family will send fifty stones of grain to Liangcheng in Datong......" Hu Lizheng didn't hear the words behind the door, but thought that the people inside were replying.

"You mean, the spring service has been sent to the head of the official?!" Xu Qing opened the door and walked out majestically, and Xu Qi and several maids were standing

Both sides.

"You...... Are you an official? Hu Li was panicking, and his face was cloudy.

"Bold, Lord Xu, the captain of the imperial court, you dare to question it if you don't kneel?" Liu San, who has been a eunuch, is very good at scaring people, and he can't clean up a single one?

"Ahh......h

"He, he's a kid, where is the official, this must be fake......" Steward Zhao's IQ dropped for a while, whether it was pretending to be the fart kid in front of him or not, after all, he had an official uniform, and there must be someone in his family who was an official!

"Bastard, you're impatient!" Hu Lizheng scolded Steward Zhao and said, whether it is false or not, it is someone else's business, and it is none of your business to talk about crime, but it is not yours to insult and slander the court officials.

"Lord Xu, you have a lot of tens of millions of adults, and the lower officials really don't know......" Hu Lizheng said bitterly. However, Xu Qing's settlement is a document directly under the county, and the amount of land, the flow of information in ancient times is small, and Hu Lizheng is indeed unaware.

"Okay, okay, those who don't know are not guilty...... The official was just about to buy something, you see...... "The geese have plucked their feathers, and Xu Qing doesn't plan to let go of these people easily."

"Oh~~ What is Lord Xu going to buy, Xiaguan has a few entourages, and his leg strength is okay." Hu Li smiled on his face, but scolded Xu Qing in his heart, if you go shopping, just buy it, let me see what to see?

"Oh, the oil, salt, rice and wheat I prepared before winter are gone, so I have to prepare some." Xu Qing didn't plan to make too many knives.

"Tsk, Lord Xu, the lower officials are here, how can I trouble you, come ......" Hu Lizheng called an entourage and instructed: "Go, buy a stone of rice and wheat, ten catties of sesame oil, a bag of refined salt, and the rest of the money to buy some cured meat, be quick, don't let Lord Xu wait for a long time."

It's so good, Xu Qingxin said, not bad.

"Hu Lizheng, how embarrassing is this......"

"I don't know if the lord didn't come to pay his respects, this time I will make up for it, plus make amends, hehe......"

"Okay, okay, don't take it as an example, Lord Hu is Lizheng, you don't need me as a military attaché, and the villagers have a lot of miscellaneous matters, so you won't leave Lord Hu to talk?" Xu Qingdao, thinking that he would stay any longer, and it would be time to eat if he stayed any longer, and when the time came, please don't invite you, saying that there are really not many things at home.

"Okay, well, the official will say goodbye, and come back to visit when I have free time in the future." Hu Li is taking Steward Zhao and his entourage away with Rumeng's amnesty.

"Okay, goodbye......" Xu Qing looked at Hu Lizheng with affection, knowing that Hu Lizheng had disappeared, and outsiders thought he was such a good friend. After earning face and earning lining, Xu Qing and the others were happy, but Xun Xue'er seemed to be sad on her brows.

"Master Xu, that Steward Zhao may have seen me, he recognizes me, if ......"

"It's okay, I have a way to ......" Xu Qing was slightly shocked in his heart, he had a fart method, he regretted pretending to bring these women out, but in front of the beauties, he still said hard. It is said that after Xun Xue'er is well, her skin is like snow, her face is like the moon, and she is a beautiful billet.

In fact, they were too worried, Steward Zhao was still a poor person when he met Xun Xue'er, his clothes were tattered and unkempt, which was completely different from his current appearance, plus Steward Zhao's IQ was not online at that time, so he didn't notice Xun Xue'er. It's just that Xun Xue'er's matter was leaked out after all, but it wasn't because of Steward Zhao.

The seedlings of winter wheat in the fields have grown, and Xuzhuang is lush and green all around, and Ruixue Zhaofeng is beginning to see the beginning. There is already a lot of snow water in the pond, and in a few days, the plants in the pond will grow, and you can try to release some fish. Leave this matter to Liu San, hasn't he fished?

Now the people in Zhuangzi have nothing to do except fertilize and weed, Xu Qing is idle and organizes them to build some ditches, and the drought and flood prevention system in Zhuangzi version 1.0 has been built, as long as it is not a year of drought and flooding.

Further, we should expand the foundation of survival, do not blindly rely on agriculture to live, industry and commerce must be established in Xuzhuang, after all, eggs cannot be put in one basket.

Xu Qing personally inspected the pigs in Zhuangzi, and they all grew well, but due to winter reasons, their advantages were not obvious, but they were a little lazy. In another month, these pigs will grow rapidly, and in autumn, the fat will grow thick and ready to "come out of the cabinet".
