Chapter 103: The hateful also have pitifulness
Bypass the county seat of Wenshui and head north. They were all young children, and the reluctance to leave home was quickly replaced by the excitement of the future. Su Ren's motorcade walked very slowly, enjoying the scenery while walking along the official road.
Huang Shisan, as the vanguard, walked at the forefront of the entire team. Tall, strong, with a face full of horizontal flesh, plus a big axe that seeps people, let those passers-by stay away. Huang Shisan's father, Huang Ba, was taken to Lao Junguan by Su Ren, and Huang Shisan no longer cared about it, and was ready to follow Su Ren to make a name for himself.
Leng Yue leaked her head out of the carriage, pointed to the mulberry forest in the distance, and chattered something to Huo Zhilan. Shuzhong has been a breeding place for silkworms since ancient times. Before the summer, there was a domestic silkworm breeding, and the silkworm breeding technology was created by selecting and breeding silkworms from mulberry pests. The Shang Dynasty had a "female silkworm", which was the earliest official in charge of silkworms. The Zhou Dynasty had a pro-silkworm system, and the Son of Heaven and the princes had a silkworm room. In the Qin and Han dynasties, this traditional craft was carried forward, and now there are Jinguan, just to encourage silkworm breeding.
The summer calendar baths in February, and the silkworms begin to be raised in early March, and until around the autumn harvest, the silkworms form cocoons. Next is the annual cocoon cooking, shredding. At this time, all the silkworm farmers in all parts of Shuzhong are busy in full swing, and the stoves of every household are full of green smoke, and from a distance, the clouds and mist are swirling, and it is magnificent.
Now the leaves of the mulberry tree have been collected, leaving only the dead branches standing upright. The people of Wenshui are not good at raising silkworms, and they have seen such large areas of neatly planted mulberry trees there.
"The spring silkworm is dead to the end, and the wax torch is gray and tears are beginning to dry!" Su Ren suddenly sighed.
glanced at Su Ren coldly and disdainfully: "What you said is good, but you don't do things very authentically." ”
Su Ren ignored the cold cynicism, and went forward with a clamp on the horse's belly. This kid has been wrong these days, so it's better to mix less with him.
Huo Zhilan called out to Su Ren: "Big brother, can Sister Leng Yue and I also raise some silkworms next year?" I heard that those beautiful silks are made of this, and the women in Shu will do it, and if the two of us don't, we will be laughed at. ”
"Hehe, okay! But you can't be afraid of hardship, this silkworm baby is very delicate, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will die completely, I suggest that you still ask some people to help, not too much, learn first, learn and then talk. ”
"Thank you, big brother!" Huo Zhilan gave a sweet smile and retracted her head to discuss their sericulture with Leng Yue.
Ever since Huang Thirteen came, Hawking has liked to stay with him. Compared with Leng Jun, Huang Shisan is tall, full of muscles, and has a big axe in his hand, which is a good man at first glance. Hawking, who is determined to be a great hero, soon became close to Huang Shisan, until he forgot his master.
The two laughed heartily in front, Su Ren suddenly appeared, and Huang Shisan unconsciously hurriedly moved to the side.
Hawking looked excited: "Big brother, Lao Huang said, what I learned from my second brother is the kung fu of fighting, he is the martial art of killing the enemy on the battlefield, I think it makes sense after listening to it, there are so many people on the battlefield, the small way is not suitable, only the big open and close can be invincible." ”
Su Ren nodded: "Lao Huang is right, one force will drop ten times, you look at Lao Huang's body, an axe to chop down, no matter if you wear armor or not, it doesn't matter if you block it or not, it will definitely be split in half, on the battlefield, it is not to see who is high in martial arts, but to see who has great strength and ruthlessness!" ”
"Good! Lao Huang, when you arrive in Chengdu, how about teaching me those skills of yours? ”
Huang Shisan smiled and looked at Su Ren cautiously: "As long as Brother Huo is willing to learn, he will definitely teach!" ”
The scenery on the road is always endless, and I just took a look at this side. As soon as the mountain road turns, it is another scenery.
In front of it is a town, not very big, but there are a lot of pedestrians coming and going. Huang 13 said that this place is called Sangyuan Town, and 30% of the silk used in Shu brocade is bought from here. As soon as you enter the town, on both sides of the street, there are snow-white silks hanging in front of every house, and the whole street looks the same as the seller of noodles. The merchants who came and went, gossiping and the silkworm farmers. It's a lively scene.
It was getting late, and the group found a random place to stay. After dinner, Huo Zhilan came to pester Su Ren again.
"Big brother, we want to go out and see, how good the silk is here, you said that you want to study first, my eldest sister and I are ready to go out to study, okay, big brother, you just promise us, right?"
Su Ren had a headache when he was entangled, so he could only agree: "Okay, okay, go!" Let your second brother follow, it's not safe for the two girls to go out at night! ”
"Thank you, big brother!" Huo Zhilan threw down Su Ren and went to pester.
Soon, Leng Jun came out of the house with a black face, and Huo Zhilan jumped up and down and took Leng Yue's hand and followed behind. Su Renchong waved goodbye coldly, snorted coldly and ignored him.
Hawking is also an anxious child, and he was playing ping pong with Huang 13 in the backyard, and the noisy crowd covered their ears and ran to the front yard. Huo Qian sewed his clothes, bowed his head and smiled contentedly. Huo Lao brought tea and put it in front of Su Ren.
"Brother Ren, drink some water, you've been on the road for a day, are you tired?"
"Ok! Let's not be in a hurry, let's go slowly, if everyone likes it, we can take a look at the silk market here tomorrow. ”
Huo Laosi nodded: "This is a good day, looking at this kid and girl, my Huo Laosi is content, if it weren't for Brother Ren, how could our family have today, living in that broken house for the rest of our lives, not enough to eat and wear, and have to be bullied by others, if it weren't for Brother Ren's ......"
"Fourth brother, you have said these words several times, everyone is a family, don't say it in the future, I'll be angry if I say it again!"
"Okay, don't talk about it!" Huo Laosi turned his head, wiped a handful of tears, and smiled contentedly.
After the white dew, the weather is getting cooler day by day, the heat has receded, and you can't sit in the yard for a long time at night. Hawking and Huang 13 had already stopped "striking iron", ran back covered in stinky sweat, pulled their mother, and asked them to prepare bath water for themselves. Huo Laosi also packed up his things and let Su Ren go into the house. was busy with noisy work, and Leng Jun came back with Leng Yue and Huo Zhilan.
"Big brother, we've got the badass!" As soon as she entered the door, Huo Zhilan's little face flushed, and she expressed her gratitude to Su Ren.
"Oh? Who? Little sister is great here, not bad! ”
Leng Jun pushed a man through the door. The guy didn't pay attention to his feet, tripped over the threshold, and a horse lay on his stomach, and Zhanzhan crawled on the ground. Hawking immediately went up and stepped on his back and pulled down the hat on his head.
"It's you!"
Brother Bad Breath is still struggling, but Hawking has a heavy hand and can't get up: "Mr. Su spares his life!" I didn't do anything bad! ”
Su Ren waved his hand and motioned for Hawking to let go of Liu Gao: "Why did you do this, I remember that you and Liu Wen left, and I didn't see you later, I thought you followed Liu Jun, why are you here?" ”
"Hey! It's hard to put into words! Ge Laozi, the Liu family is really not a thing! It's a shame that I'm thinking about their Liu family everywhere, and if I don't want it, I'll kick me away! ”
"Huh!" Su Ren smiled: "This is also for your good, if you are still in the Liu family, I am afraid that you will have been escorted to Chang'an, and the best result is to be stabbed outside the noon gate." ”
"Who rarely goes to Chang'an with them, it's good that the Liu family is dead!"
"Such a big temperament!" Su Ren looked at Liu Gao: "Look at you like this, you don't mix well!" ”
"Hey! I haven't eaten or drunk for several days, I have no place to sleep, just like me, what can I do, if I hadn't seen them in the cold road, I would have starved to death here! ”
"Little gold, go get him something to eat, no matter how you say it, it's a fellow villager, he came to Laojunguan to report the news!"
"Mr. Xie Su, Mr. Su is a good person!"
Hawking reluctantly went to find food for Liu Gao. Liu Gao knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic, tears fell down like a clatter, and his grievances were vented.
Su Ren ignored him: "Do you know why you ended up in this field today?" Because you are the first rat at both ends! For the Liu family, if you give me a tip-off, it is disloyalty; For me, you are a dog of the Liu family, no matter what your purpose was that day, you don't have a good impression in my heart, so I never felt that you were my person, but there is one thing that makes me see that your conscience has not been lost. ”
"Liu Wen was injured, everyone followed Hou Jian, only you helped Liu Wen, this one thing made me have a different opinion of you as a person, not to mention anything else, you still have a righteous and awe-inspiring posture at the time of crisis."
Liu Gao lay on the ground and said nothing.
Su Ren thought for a while: "If you can fix your problems, will you follow me in the future?" Although it can't be beautiful, it's not a problem to eat and dress warmly! ”
Liu Gao looked at Su Ren incredulously. There was a meal that had exceeded his expectations, and now that Su Ren wanted to take him in, he began to wonder if he had heard it wrong.
Leng Jun knew that Liu Gao had reported the news. Bringing this guy back, just to give him a way to live, as soon as he heard Su Ren's words, he kicked Liu Gao's buttocks: "What are you doing in a daze?" ”
Liu Gao reacted at this time, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Mr. Xie Su, the villain will be a cow and a horse in this life to repay Mr. for his kindness!" ”
"Hehe, you don't have to be a cow or a horse, eat first, and after eating, go take a shower and change clothes, I thought you would have a bad mouth, but now your whole body stinks."
After arranging things, Huo Laosi was left to accompany Liu Gao, and the others went back to their own rooms to sleep one after another. The space was limited, everyone could only squeeze in, and Su Ren and Leng Jun were arranged into a room. There was only one bed in the room, and two big men lived in it, which was a bit awkward.
Su Ren looked at the bed and was embarrassed, and coldly pulled down the bed cover from the couch: "You sleep on it, I sleep on it!" ”
"So good?"
"Don't talk nonsense, that Liu Gao is our life-saving benefactor after all, although hateful, but also pitiful, you can take him in, even if you still have some conscience, Dao Ye will let you take a step today!"
"Hahaha! What about the Taoist master? Do you have a robe on you? ”
Leng Jun realized that he was no longer a Taoist priest when he left Laojunguan, and his heart was sour. Blowing out the oil lamp, he got into his quilt with his clothes. Su Ren was left standing in the black-lit room in a daze.
