On the afternoon of hoeing day,

Sweat drops down the soil.

Who knows the Chinese food on the plate,

Every grain is hard.

One of the "Compassion for Nong", written by Li Shen during the time of Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty, is very classic and popular, and is almost a well-known Tang poem in later generations, but in Li Shimin's era, it has not yet appeared.

Therefore, when Liu Yiyi recited it softly and used it to teach the three children, the three little guys were a little confused, and only Li Zhi, a child who had already understood a little bit about the matter, understood a little.

"Farming is hard, food is not easy, sir, this poem, but it is teaching us to cherish the rice in the bowl, don't waste one of them?" Li Zhiqing stood up and asked Liu Yiyi in the hall for advice.

"Yes!" With a light compliment, Liu Yiyi picked up the big hoe he had prepared for himself, put it on his shoulder, glanced at the little slave with satisfaction, and said: "Not only rice, corn, wheat, but also everything else that can be eaten, all of which are hard-won and should not be wasted easily." However, what the teacher wants to teach you today is the top of this poem, so that you can experience the feeling of the afternoon of hoeing day and the feeling of sweat dropping into the soil. ”

As soon as he waved, Liu Yiyi took the three princes and princesses, one of whom carried the new hoe, out of the study to read and write, and ran to the garden behind the palace together.

In the back garden, the palace maids who are responsible for taking care of and planting flowers and plants are no longer there, and they have been beaten out by Xiao Dezi as early as a moment ago.

"I've seen Her Royal Highness Princess Huanzhu, Her Royal Highness the King of Jin, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Jinyang!" According to the difference between dignity and inferiority. After greeting the three of Xiaoya first, Xiao Dezi bowed his hand to greet Liu Yiyi, but only shouted softly: "Mr. Yifan!" ”

"Mr. De is polite!" Seeing that Xiao Dezi didn't give himself a good face, knowing that it must be because of this borrowing of the garden, which caused the dissatisfaction of this German father-in-law, Liu Yiyi chuckled, didn't care too much, and gently returned the salute.

"According to Mr. Yifan's request, this back garden. In the next month, it will be up to Mr. to do it," turning his head to look at the delicate flowers in the garden, Xiao Dezi reminded Liu Yiyi softly: "Although the flowers and plants in this garden are not very precious, they are mostly the things beloved by the queen's mother." There are even some of them, which are planted by the queen's mother, and when Mr. Yifan teaches several highnesses, you must be careful and merciful, don't waste it because you have the queen's promise! ”

"Manager De can rest assured, Liu has his own measure in these things." Putting down the hoe on his shoulder, Liu Yiyi glanced at Xiao Dezi with a smile. said softly: "Liu is also a person who loves flowers, he will not do that spicy hand to urge flowers, this garden full of flowers and plants Liu will not touch, what Liu needs is just some idle vacant land." ”

"Oh?" Hear me. Xiao Dezi's brows relaxed, the expression on his face softened slightly, and his tone of voice became docile: "In this way, that's the best, the villain is here to thank Mr. Yifan, don't hide that Mr. Yifan knows, the flowers and plants in this garden have always been taken care of by the villain, and over time, I have gradually developed feelings for them." It is most difficult to see anyone toying with it at will, let alone hoeing with a hoe. ”

"Mr. De is polite," he replied lightly, and Liu Yiyi's eyes moved to the three students in his place, only to see the little girl, the childish slave, and the son. They were lounging around the garden with their little hoes. {First Reading} waved a small hoe and took a look. After a while, I don't know how many flowers and plants died under their hoes, and a cold sweat broke out on Liu Yiyi's forehead, and when he was talking to Xiao Dezi, his tone couldn't help but be a little empty.

"Okay, Mr. Yifan is busy, the villain will not bother here, the queen is still waiting for the villain's reply in the palace," looked at the sky, the sun had risen in mid-air, Xiao Dezi bowed to Liu Yiyi, and then walked away from the garden, and Liu Yiyi also sighed.

Gao shouted, and summoned the three children who were still wielding hoes indiscriminately, Liu Yiyi first reprimanded them angrily, and explained to them some matters that need to be paid attention to in this garden, and then took out a packet of small white flat seeds from his arms, pointed to the seeds in his hand, and whispered to them: "See? Finding a suitable place to plant these seeds is the lesson that the teacher is going to teach you today. ”

"What kind of seed is this, sir?" Looking curiously at the white seeds in a small cloth bag in Liu Yiyi's hand, Xiao Li Zhi held his little hoe and asked in a childish voice.

"Cucumber!" Liu Yiyi put away the seeds again, glanced at the three of them, and said in a loud voice: "Originated from the Western Regions, it used to be called courgette, it is one of the most common vegetables among the people, it is rare in the palace, and the little girl may have eaten it when she was wandering outside the palace before, but the young slave and the son of the child, probably never even seen." ”

It is not worthless, in the past, when I was in the countryside, a penny was enough to buy dozens of catties, enough for a family of four or five, and ate for three or five days.

"Hmmm! Xiaoya has eaten a lot before, but this cucumber is not full, after eating, she will soon be hungry again, Xiaoya doesn't like it! Shaking her head slightly, Xiaoya suddenly lost interest, when begging outside, cucumbers were the easiest thing for them to get, there was a period of time, she and her mother-in-law, almost every day to this kind of fruit-like vegetables for food, eating, are tired, hurt, now when you see the kind of green cucumber, Xiaoya will have a feeling of wanting to vomit.

"Cucumber, it's just a kind of sparse vegetable, use it as a staple food to eat, it won't be delicious," glanced at the little girl with pity, raised his hand and patted her head, Liu Yiyi said: "But if you eat it once in a while, or cold salad, or small cooking, it still tastes good." If you have a chance in the future, my brother-in-law will give you a taste. ”

"Well, thank you, brother-in-law!" Feeling the warmth from her brother-in-law's hand, the little girl responded sweetly, and there was a smile on her face.

"Sir, students should eat too!" "Also, son-in-law, son-in-law also wants to eat!"

Seeing that Liu Yiyi was so fond of Sister Yuyu, Xiao Li Zhi and Xiao Zizi couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and they were also busy stepping forward to spread their coquettishness.

"Okay, well, all three of you will have a share by then, but only if you grow these cucumbers yourself!" Liu Yiyi smiled and nodded, then picked up the hoe in his hand and said to the three little guys: "Now, with the teacher, it is important to find a suitable idle land for these seeds." ”

Very barren, with the three of them in the garden around, into the eyes of the land, is barren and bad, yellow sand, knotted skin, there is no bit of moisture, and the soil is deposited, not loose, not breathable, willow a little dumbfounded, no wonder just into this garden when the ground, although also feel that the flowers and plants everywhere are very gorgeous, but it always makes people feel that something is wrong, after seeing the soil and soil conditions here, Liu Yi understands, It turns out that these flowers are also like those beauties who have lost too much weight, and they are a little malnourished.

Have these flowers and plants never been fertilized?

Thinking of Xiao Dezi's words just now, Liu Yiyi suddenly realized in his heart that if most of the flowers and plants here were really planted by the eldest grandson queen herself, according to the identity of the eldest grandson queen, the possibility of using night incense or the feces of other animals was zero.

It's indecent, it's not decent, it's seen by people, and I don't know what gossip will say. The reason why these flowers can grow like this is also because there are people carefully watering them every day, otherwise, if they are placed in the countryside, such a land, without water storage, no moisture, no nutrients, it is a little difficult to grow wild grasses, let alone delicate flowers and plants.

"Brother-in-law, what are we going to do now?" Seeing that her brother-in-law was looking at the loess on the ground, the little girl tugged on Liu Yiyi's sleeve and asked Liu Yi in a low voice.

"Let's go now," turning around and glancing at the three little ones who were already a little impatient, Liu Yiyi touched his chin and said softly, "I should go find some fertilizer." ”

"But before we can do that, we'll have to reclaim a few open spaces for planting." Picking up the hoe, Liu Yi bent down, bowed down and withdrew his legs, poked the hoe forward, put on a standard hoe posture, first tried to hoe twice, although he had not touched the hoe for a long time, but the previous experience and technology were still there, Liu Yi still quickly found the feeling, the hoe danced back and forth flexibly in the flowers, skimming the roots of the flower stems, relaxing the surface soil, the whole action was like flowing water, without a little lag.

"See?" After finding the feeling, Liu Yiyi slowly stopped his movements, turned around and said to the three children: "When hoeing, we should pay attention to the cooperation of legs, waist, eyes, and hands, and the hoe should be light, and the hoe should be stable, try to avoid the rhizomes of flowers and plants, only loosen the soil skin, and remove excess weeds along the way, and at the same time have a sense of proportion under the feet.
