※ Let Qian Tang ask for the New Year's Chen Cao! I didn't know about the people in the middle of the court, in addition to making trouble with Siqigang to socialize, he climbed Jiuyao Mountain with Zongzhi, Run'er and others every day, practiced Wufowl opera, read and practiced calligraphy, and instructed his nephews and nieces to paint, and the days were warm and leisurely

On the sixth day of the first month, Xu Miao came to Chenjiawu, and Chen Caozhi and Liu Shangzhi went to Shanyin to participate in Kong Wang's wedding, and when he arrived at Shanyin Kong's manor on the evening of the seventh day of the first month, Xie Xuan was also not long in coming, and he was very happy to see him, but he did not see Xie Daoyun, Xie Xuan between Chen Cao, Xie Xuan said: "My sister doesn't like to be lively, and I am worried about seeing an old person like Master Zhiyoudu or Mr. Dai Andao, so I only sent a congratulatory gift in the name of Zhu Yingtai, but my sister will come out of Dongshan early tomorrow morning and come to Shanyin to meet us."

Sister Xie Xuan also received a document from Xifu, asking to arrive at Guyu in early February, so both of them had packed their bags, brought more than 20 servants and subordinates, and set off for Xifu after attending Kong Wang's wedding.

Chen Caozhi learned the news from Dai Shu of the Huiji Nei Shi Dai Shu that He Sui had sent the Jingzhong Court Lieutenant for questioning, although He Sui had already sent a letter to the official. Still enjoy the official government, according to the five-grade official calculation, the moon rice solution, silk blade horse, Mianli Jin, this time to be recorded, and He Sui's direct line of this branch can not participate in the order within ten years, He Zhu because of the Chen Zhantian case in the responsibility of arson slave framed, his seven products Zhangcheng Wang Sheren was dismissed, Shanyin He was hit hard

The Yu family, the Wei family, the Kong family, and the children of the Huiji Xie family respectively have the edict of the edict, or for the Wang You, or for the Sheren, or for the military staff, all of which are noble and idle, among which Kong Wang changed from the East China Sea Wang Sheren to the Langya Wang Sheren, although the rank has not changed, but the status of the Langya King Sima Yu is completely different from that of the East China Sea Wang Sheren, which is obviously the measure agreed by Huan Wen and Sima Yu to appease the Huiji clan

On the morning of the ninth day of the first lunar month, Chen Caozhi, Xu Miao, Liu Shangzhi, and Xie Xuan resigned to Kong Huai and Kong Wang's uncle and nephew, and Kong Wang was sent to the west of the city. See you in the capital, the eighth day of March is the wedding date of Xie Xuan and the daughter of the Yang family, and everyone can gather to drink again.

Chen Caozhi and the others left Shanyin and went to Qian Tang, and arrived in the small town of Qingdian at noon, but saw that Xie Daoyun had been waiting for a long time, and everyone had another meal in the town's wine shop.

Xie Daoyun didn't explain much. just said: "I don't like wedding banquets, don't say Kong Deze, even if Xie Youdu is married, I won't participate, but there are gifts." ”

Xie Xuan looked at Chen Caozhi and smiled bitterly.

Liu Shangzhi said with a smile: "I wish my brother is so widowed, won't he be lonely when he marries a wife in the future?" I'm just not courteous. Or maybe only Zizhong went to congratulate him

Xie Daoyun didn't like Liu Shangwei, who was kind and reprimanded, so he diverted the topic and asked Chen Caozhi: "Zizhong." I was enjoying the flowers in Merlin before, and I heard from the villagers that when you returned to Qiantang a year ago, there was a maidservant girl who was injured by a vicious dog in Merlin, who is it?

Chen Caozhi said: "It was Xiaochan who was bitten by a dog to protect Run'er, the sick dog was poisonous, which made me very worried, and the antidote left by Xige Shi was very effective, but it was also safe to pass a hundred days before it was spared."

On the evening of the tenth day of the first lunar month, everyone came to Chenjiawu, but saw the young man Shen Chiqian coming out. Shen Shiqian led twenty tribal slaves from Wuxing on the third day of the first month to Qian Tang to congratulate Chen Caozhi on the New Year, the gift was full of three cars, Wuxing Shen family wealth, although it has declined in recent years, mainly because the Shen family children can not advance, if you talk about the field. Although the Wuxing Shen clan is not as good as the Wujun Gu clan, the 6 clan and the Huiji Yu clan, it should be much better than the Zhang, Zhu, He, and Kong clans, and in last year's land break, the Wuxing Shen clan handed over 1,300 hermits, and was rewarded by the imperial court and gave 60 shade households, and the Wuxing Shen clan is expected to restore the scholarly status

On the 11th, Chen Caozhi and Xie Daoyun, Xie Xuan, Xu Miao, and Liu Shangzhi visited Chen's Manor. See Chen's nearly 200 hectares of fertile fields ditch vertical and horizontal, lead to Mingsheng Lake water irrigation, when the terrain is high and low, then use the waterwheel to divert water, this waterwheel is divided into two kinds, single or double trampling, the use of wheel axle and groove plate, can raise the water level to a zhang highland, very convenient, this kind of waterwheel began to see in the Eastern Han Dynasty, according to legend, Zhuge Liang improved the waterwheel, because of the mountains in Shu, this waterwheel can be implemented, but the three Wu are rare to see, this is Chen Caozhi to draw the figure, explain the principle, let the craftsman to come to the rate of the craftsman to manufacture, Qiantang County ordered Feng Mengxiong to make 200 water trucks in preparation for the early need, and like Huiji, Qian Tang has only had two light rains and one heavy snow since August last year, and the drought is gradually spreading

Xie Daoyun was careful, and saw that there were still greenhouses on some fields, and some farmers were busy with greenery, so he asked Chen Caozhi why? Chen Caozhi: "That is the experimental field, in the cultivation of excellent rice seeds, it is estimated that this year's rice in Chen's manor can be planted twice a year, and after the second season of rice is harvested, there is still time to plant wheat." ”

Xie Daoyun's slender eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "If Chen Jiawu continues like this, he will be rich enough to rival the country."

Chen Caozhi said: "If the experiment is successful, the mu harvest will not be low, and when the Xie manor wants rice seeds, my Chen family will give it up." And send the old farmers on the village to guide the sowing

Xie Daoyun smiled, looked at the fields by the Mingsheng Lake, and said: "Zizhong is really surprising to see Xu Miao, Liu Shangzhi and others far away, and suddenly asked in a voice: "Zizhong, let my sister-in-law know that I am a woman?" ”

Chen Caozhi didn't answer, "Rhetorical question!" , When did Brother Yingtai accidentally reveal the truth Xie Daoyun remembered the first time he returned to Shangyu with Chen Caozhi from Wu County four years ago. went to Ding's villa to meet Ding Youwei, and Ding Youwei's expression was different that time, as if she had already noticed that she was a woman, and then saw Ding Youwei several times. Ding Youwei's attitude towards her was obviously not as taboo as he was with other young men

Seeing Xie Daoyun frowning, Chen Caozhi was relieved: "It's okay for my sister-in-law to know, she won't tell anyone about it."

Xie Daoyun hesitated for a moment and asked, "What did Sister-in-law Ling say to you?" ”

Of course, Chen Caozhi couldn't tell Xie Daoyun about the conversation with his sister-in-law that day, so he shook his head and said, "My sister-in-law is just a little strange and didn't ask much." ”

Xie Daoyun glanced at Chen Cao, Chen Caozhi turned his head to look at the sunset of Mingsheng Lake in the distance, Xie Daoyun knew that Chen Cao's words were endless. After thinking about it for a while, the cheeks of the powder were a little hot, and he turned to Xu Miao and the others

On the twelfth day of the first month, Chen Caozhi said goodbye to the elders and sister-in-law Ding Youwei of the clan and embarked on the journey to Xifu, Zong Zhi and Run'er were in tears, although Ding Youwei had a smile on her face, she couldn't give up, Xiaolang was also her inner support. It's a matter of affection, well, that's it.

When Lai De resigned from the engineer Cao of the West Mansion, the engineer Cao reported to the military Sima and ordered Lai De to serve in the West Mansion for three years. After three years, you can be dismissed and return to your hometown, and then the military government will be rewarded, so this time you will come to Germany with Chen Caozhi to go to your aunt, and her son has not yet been full moon, and the green branch hugs the child to send it off, which is really reluctant.

Chen Caozhi told Chen Fu and Chen Tan to take Zong Zhi with him when he went to Wu County at the end of the month, Zong Zhi was thirteen years old, and he should also study and make friends, Dr. Xu Zao and Xu Miao were still waiting for Feng Lingbo to give birth in Feng Mansion, and Chen Yu, Chen Tan, and Chen Zongzhi happened to return to Wu County School with Dr. Xu Zao.

Chen Caozhi said goodbye to the prostitute Ding Youwei and said: "Sister-in-law, I'm going here, take care of my sister-in-law, and I will come back at the end of the year to pick up my sister-in-law, Zongzhi, and Run'er to Jiankang." ”

Ding Youwei nodded, took Xiaochan's hand and said to Chen Caozhi: ", treat it well."

Xiaochan said shyly: "Xiaolangjun that the lady knows is very good to Xiaochan. ”

Liu Shangwei rushed from Liujiabao to join Chen Caozhi, Xie Daoyun, and Xie Xuan. Liu Shangzhi went from Jiankang to Wuxing to review the soil break this time. left Gillian in Beijing, and this time she went to Beijing. brought his wife, Zhong, and three-year-old son

Xiaochan remembered what Gillian said to her that time, Liu Shang's wife entered Beijing, and her Gillian's good days were not long.

Cross the river at noon, first go to Ding's villa to meet Ding Yi and Ding Licheng, and say goodbye to Ding Chunqiu, Ding Chunqiu will not go to Yangzhou until the end of the month. Ding Licheng is going to Chenjiawu tomorrow to say goodbye to his sister Ding Youwei, and then wait for the birthday of Emperor Tianguan to return to distant Yizhou.

When Ding Yi sent Chen Caozhi and others out of the manor, he said to Chen Caozhi: "Caozhi, your sister-in-law only has Licheng, a brother-in-law. But he is far away as an official in Shudi, and it is rare to come back once, but he is afraid that Zongzhi will marry a wife and Run'er will marry in the future. Licheng can't rush back, if Licheng can find a job in Yangzhou and Jiangzhou, wouldn't it be good? If there is an opportunity, you can pay attention to it on behalf of Licheng.

Chen Caozhi nodded and said, "Uncle Ding is right, Caozhi will pay attention."

Chen Caozhi and others went to the county seat to bid farewell to Feng Mengxiong, Xu Zao, and Xu Miao, rested overnight in the county, and set off for the capital early the next morning.

This time there were many chariots and horses. Chen Caozhi has Ran Sheng and his 21 sergeants, 7 private soldiers of Laide and Chen, as well as Xiaochan and Huang Xiaotong, Shen Chiqian and 20 subordinates also entered the capital with Chen Caozhi, Xie sisters and their servants and retinue of about 30 people, Liu Shang is worth more than 100 people, a total of nearly 100 people, quite vast.

When resting the night in Yuhang. Liu Shangzhi asked Chen Caozhi with a smile: "Zizhong, do we take a detour to Huating this time?" ”

Chen Caozhi: "Go to Wu County through Jiaxing." ”

Xie Daoyun glanced at Chen Cao, slightly surprised, and tasted tea by himself.

The young man Shen Chiqian didn't know what his teacher was thinking, so he suggested: "You don't have to go through Wu County to go to Guyi, you can save hundreds of miles by going to Wuxing County on the south bank of Taihu Lake."

Chen Caozhi: "Changkang is waiting for me in Wu County to invite him to Beijing on the same road. After a pause, he said, "The girl of the Jie's family also wants to enter Beijing with the same way." ”

Liu Shangwei laughed a little. said: "I'm wondering why Zizhong wouldn't go to Huating, I see, haha."

Chen Caozhi said to Xie Daoyun and Xie Xuan: "Brother Yingtai and Youdu, you two are as good as you want."

Xie Xuan understood what Chen Caozhi meant by asking, if his sister and brother were unwilling to go with the girls of the 6th clan, he could take the road of Wuxing

Xie Xuanfeng's eyes narrowed slightly. Xin said: "Zizhong has scruples, why scruples." Isn't it because of my sister? Zizhong still can't treat his sister as just a friend. As she was opening her mouth, the sister Xie Daoyun beside her said lightly: "I will walk Wuxing with Youdu." ”
