Chapter 2 What I Saw and Heard in the Village

A small bowl of sweet goat's milk went down to the stomach, Fang Xuanling stroked his stomach and burped and said: "The style of this meal is so good that even the old man can support it."

Yu Shinan asked, "Do the babies eat like this every day?"

"There is a better time to eat than this", Xiao Changning said vaguely as he chewed on a half-pulled bun.

Yu Shinan looked at the white and chubby faces of this group of babies, and knew that this child was not lying.

"Brother and sister, this cooking skill is far inferior to the imperial chef in the palace!" Li Shimin praised.

Jin'er heard a few people praise her like this, so she looked at Xiao Zheng and a group of babies proudly and said, "Just like that, they still say it's not delicious."

At this time, Lou Shide said: "Master, what you do is not as delicious as what Master makes", and moved his butt out of the chair after speaking.

"Stuff your buns, why can't I stop your mouth" Jin'er glared at him angrily.

Seeing Li Shimin and these people coming, Xiao Zheng originally wanted the babies to go home first, but he didn't think that Li Shimin and the others insisted on listening to what Xiao Zheng said.

After saying two sentences, Fang Yu and the two well-educated people heard that Mr. Xiao was talking about the Warring States Policy, and thought that Xiao Zheng would take the children to read and analyze it word by word, but he didn't expect Xiao Zheng to write on the blackboard with a wave of chalk "The Warring States Policy Moves Mouth", a few big words, just like telling a story, the stupid Qin Wugong, and the stammering Han Feizi are depicted vividly, not only the children who listened to it laughed constantly, but Li Shimin and several people also listened to it with relish and smiled.

When talking about the battle of Changping, draw a line in the middle of the blackboard, one side is the Qin State and the other is the Zhao State, the upper decision-making of the two sides, the troops, the grain and grass, the array, and the use of each family to draw a big table to make it clear at a glance, until then a few people found out that the original Qin State was also narrowly defeated

When he talked about arithmetic, the eyes of several people were full of stars, and what made Yu Shinan the most unbearable thing was the way these children listened to the class, Xiao Zheng arranged arithmetic problems for the babies and prepared to serve some sour plum soup to everyone. Xiao Changning only glanced at the question on the blackboard, got up and took a stack of books from the bookshelf on the side, the old master thought that the child wanted to read, but he didn't expect to put it on the railing bench next to him as a pillow and lay down.

It's okay to encounter such a teacher who is not respectful and humbly taught, why are you still lazy like this? Looking at Xiao Zheng's disapproving appearance, the old master, who was extremely serious about learning, really couldn't stand it. asked Xiao Changning, "Why don't you do the question?" ”

Xiao Changning glanced at him and said, "I'll do it all."

"You're all going to do it?! Baby, you have such a big breath! ”。

Old Master Yu had also read "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" before, thought about it and said: "There is a bucket of corn today, and if you want to be rice, how much do you ask?" ”。

As soon as he finished speaking, a few older babies laughed, and one of them said: "Grandpa, Mr. taught me "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" last year, and we have already met."

Lou Shide got up to stop the children's laughter, and saluted Old Master Yu and said: "Don't blame me, this is my junior brother Xiao Changning, who is extremely talented in arithmetic, and now his arithmetic level is far inferior to him."

The old master who was full of money was despised by the group of babies! Fang Xuanling patted the devastated Old Master Yu and smiled and said with relief: "Bo Shi, you are a pure person, don't use your own shortcomings to attack their strengths, you don't know this Mr. Xiao's ability, you see that these babies are taught by him to be slippery."

"Mr. Yu is not strange, the so-called Mr. Wendao has a specialty, if it is so, these children are not geniuses, but they are exposed to more things than others," Xiao Zheng said with a large basin of chilled sour plum soup.

At noon, a few chickens were called, a few fish were stewed, a duck was roasted, and a few seasonal side dishes were eaten. During the meal, Li Shimin said: "I should have come to visit you Brother Xiao Xian a long time ago, but I couldn't get out of the complicated affairs in the army until today."

Xiao Zheng smiled and asked, "Has the strategy under it ever been used?" ”。

After listening to this, Li Shimin slapped his thigh with a smile and said: "We used this strategy to defeat Liu Heimin, and our Tang army occupied the city of Zhaozhou in just one battle, but unfortunately we failed to catch Liu Heimin himself and let this guy run to the Turks, can the virtuous brother guess who I will send this time?" "Li Shimin has the heart to take the school exam Xiao Zheng.

"Him!" Xiao Zheng pointed at Cheng Yanjin and said.

"Why?"

"It's very simple, in terms of martial arts, Liu Heimin will never lose to General Wei Chi, who has the highest martial arts, and it is precisely because of this that Liu Heimin is a little conceited. The battle of Luoyang was forced to withdraw from Luoyang City by General Cheng, who was weaker than him, and his heart had already been aggrieved, if he attacked the city of Zhaozhou, such as sending General Wei Chi as a general, Liu Heimin also had to consider whether to avoid the edge of the Tang army's victory, but if General Cheng went to attack, Liu Heimin would definitely count the new hatred and old hatred together, and he would find a way to catch General Cheng out, as long as he crossed the water, we won."

"Brother Xian is really a god, this time I sent Cheng Zhijie to fight, and when Liu Heimin came out of the water halfway out of the water, he dug the embankment and released the water, and let the collected Liu Heimin's banner go down the river and shouted to the people who drowned Liu Heimin, and at the same time General Wei Chi covered the past from the flank, and then General Cheng returned and took the city of Zhaozhou with two pinching attacks, and the hero saw the same" said and picked up the wine glass and toasted Xiao Zheng.

"My old Cheng still has a battle that can't be won," Cheng Yanjin proudly picked up the wine bowl and took a sip and said.

After Cheng Biting Jin finished speaking, Xiao Zheng heard Li Shimin say apologetically that this big victory originally thought that the saint would reward the meritorious personnel after he came back, but no one thought that Li Yuan just added the title of "Tiance General" to Li Shimin, and there was no follow-up.

Even Cheng Biting Jin and General Wei Chi Lao Hei Qin only issued an order to praise something, only Li Yuan was okay with his baby daughter Li Sanniang who went on the expedition, and rewarded a lot of things, as for the treatment method left by Xiao Zheng, it greatly reduced the casualties of the soldiers of my Tang army.

It turned out that Li Shimin wanted to fight for a half-official position for Xiao Zheng and several people with the credit of protecting food and killing the enemy, treating injuries in the army, and treating the princess, but was beaten back by the military department in charge of Pei Lian. But fortunately, Xiao Zheng and Xiao Hai were given a few rewards, presumably the rewards would arrive in a few days, and Li Shimin also brought a gift to Xiao Zheng, and they would be sent over together at that time.

Xiao Zheng smiled after listening to his words, it seemed that this Li Yuan was clearly in a posture to suppress Li Shimin, so he said with a smile: "Does Your Highness think that my Xiao Mou is a person who values an official position and rewards?" Everyone is a smart person, and they all laughed when they heard Xiao Zheng's words.

In the afternoon, when Fang Xuanling asked Lou Shide's mother's income twice a month, he was really shocked, he couldn't understand that the monthly income of an ordinary woman in this medicine workshop would far exceed the annual income of a farmer's family.

At dinner in the evening, Xiao Zheng also called Xiao Hai and his son, Lao Wang Quan and Zhang Shun and a few old people over, and after everyone got acquainted with each other, the old people were not restrained, and they ate very happily. After eating, more than a dozen people sat by the river, listening to the croaking of frogs, looking up at a bright moon, and the cool breeze was very pleasant.

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling asked a few old people about their family background, and everyone also told the truth one by one, Lao Wang Quan said with a smile: "I really don't hide it from a few nobles, if these two villages are all shaved in the soil, this Zhuangzi will not be able to be built for more than ten years, and the grain produced in a good year will only be sold for a few dollars after the government's levy, and the majority of the money is still in a few workshops."

When Li Shimin heard that there was a big and small affair in the two villages, and the money came out of the profit of the workshop, he looked at each other a little, didn't they all say that there was no business and no treachery, how could this be? Seeing that these people were silent after listening to Wang Quan's words, Xiao Zheng thought that it was time to instill some business ideas in this future emperor and prime minister.
