Qin Zhen's daughter-in-law is pregnant, this is a big deal, Aunt Wu, who has always been helpful, is about to come over every once in a while, and Qin Zhen's daughter-in-law and her two are in Qin Zhen's hut for a long time. Every time he encountered this situation, Qin Zhen would come to Wei Xuan with a depressed face, and Wei Xuan would also hold a pipe with a depressed face, and lead Qin Zhen to the river to fish with a fishing rod in each hand.

The heavens and the earth are not as big as a pregnant woman. No more than the stunned Qin Zhen, Wei Xuan knows this truth.

The dog days were vicious, but there was not a single cloud in the sky, and it was sunburned down without a little barrier, and it was baked like a steamer. In this kind of weather, either sit under the tree with a fan, or swim around the river, as for other methods, it is useless, not to mention that for ordinary farmers, sour plum soup and ice are all luxury accessories, so I simply don't think about it.

Wei Xuan of sour plum soup has no choice, but Bing can do it. The old Taoist priest had a lot of saltpeter, grabbed it and put it on a plate, took a jar of water and put it on the plate, and then poured water on the plate, and after a while, the water in the jar was a layer of ice ballast. Take a sip of it, it's cold and delicious.

This method is not strange, but it is not something that ordinary people want, at least Wei Xuan has not found out that anyone else besides him uses this method to reduce the heat, even the old Taoist priest looked like he had seen a ghost when he first saw it. Lao Sun calmed down a lot, just followed Wei Xuan's example and made a can of ice by himself, and then smiled and ignored it. Lao Sun has not paid much attention to this kind of strange and obscene technique, and for him, it is better to go to the mountains to collect herbs and study the properties of medicines when he has time to make ice.

For the first time, the people of Nanshan Village spent a summer that was not hot, very comfortable, and the food on weekdays was really good, and they inadvertently gained a lot of weight. Wei Xuan had long been fed up with the monotonous dishes and taught a lot of dishes to the villagers. It's not complicated, it's just a home-cooked dish such as stir-fried vegetables, but in this era when cooking is not only cooking is baking, the taste of stir-fried vegetables is undoubtedly sweeping everything.

After careful calculation, Wei Xuan has been in Datang for a year, and he has made some strange things this year. Of course, after going through so much with the people of Nanshan Village, none of these things have been passed on. In Uncle Wu's words: Good things have to be hidden, and if you shout blindly, you know that you are a fool!

Wei Xuan did not change this kind of thinking, as a completely lazy person, in addition to eating and sleeping every day, he was in a daze, as long as he could sit, he would never stand, and the difficult work of brainwashing was really not suitable for him. However, there are some things that can be left undone, and some things that cannot be done. Now the people in the village know each other well-being, and they want some kind of well-being.

The nights are still very cool in summer, especially in Nanshan Village, which is surrounded by water in front and surrounded by mountains in the back. Count all the men, women and children in the village to their own yards, and there are more than a dozen lamps lit in the courtyard, plus the moonlight is like daylight. Wei Xuan put the door panel in the center, on which was written "Thousand Character Text", teaching word by word, a little more serious than teaching children before.

This is also no way, after all, you can't expect a middle-aged and elderly person who is dozens of years old to learn things as quickly as enlightening children, not to mention that they only come to learn every once in a while, and they don't take it seriously.

The attitude of the people in the village towards literacy is clear. That's a good thing, your own doll has to learn hard, and if you don't learn well, you will definitely be beaten; As for changing to yourself, I can't remember a lot of age, and it is better to go to the field to keep vigil at that time, and recently there are always some beasts that do not have long eyes running out of the mountains in the middle of the night to scourge the crops, and it is not okay if no one is watching.

Wei Xuan had no way to deal with this kind of thinking of the people in the village, and after forcing it a few times, he found that there was no change, so he let them go. It's not that it's all fruitless, it's just that some ordinary characters are recognized, and there is no problem in reading a notice from the imperial court. And that's enough, Wei Xuan didn't think about teaching all the people in a village to be old scholars, and besides, he didn't have that ability.

The best way is to gradually change the village like a drop of water and a stone, moisturizing things silently.

The Tang Dynasty in the first year of Zhenguan was very calm, at least in the vicinity of Chang'an, and some disputes between the north and the south of the Yangtze River were just a little spice in the ordinary days, and did not attract the attention of the low-level people. Li Er, who first ascended the throne, is obviously full of energy to make some achievements, but only now it is more important to recuperate, after all, the big war with the Turks last year still hurt the foundation, and the treasury of the Tang Dynasty was almost emptied, and it will undoubtedly take a long time to recover.

Therefore, in the entire first year of Zhenguan, almost all the edicts issued by Li Er were related to people's livelihood. Tax cuts and light taxes are just the most basic, and Kaienke is the most important. This kind of news is the best for the children of the poor family, and countless poor scholars who have obtained the news have worked hard to get the gold list in the Beijing Central Committee examination at the end of the year, and then enter the official career and pay homage to the prime minister.

Wei Xuan didn't have the idea of taking the exam, he still knew how much he was capable of. I know the Four Books and Five Classics, but I only limit myself to those famous articles, and if I really want to be more serious, I will be blind, so even if Uncle Wu and others persuaded him repeatedly, Wei Xuan did not go to the township test, and that was already in late spring and early summer.

Do the math, it's been half a year.

In autumn, the weather is still very hot, and if you really want to cool down, you have to wait for the first autumn rain to pass. It's like a balloon that looks big, but as soon as you take the first breath, it quickly deflats. It's just that this year's autumn rain came very late, and it didn't come down until after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it was just a light rain, and it was useless.

The crops in the village were almost harvested, and the harvest was very good, and there was more than one stone per acre, which was two cents more than in previous years. This was a happy event, and the county officials who came down to collect the land tax were shocked at that time, and immediately notified the Lantian County Order. After the county order came, he was also very happy, carefully selected two plump wheat, carefully cut off the ears of wheat and wrapped them in red cloth, and let a special person watch them, and others were not even allowed to approach.

In a country based on agriculture, the feelings for full, ears and ears of wheat are beyond the cognition of others, not to mention that these two ears of wheat have two more ears than the common ones, and the meaning is different. This is auspicious! It is a sign of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty! It is to inherit the Jinluan Hall and offer it to the Taimiao! Who would dare to be careless about such a thing?

There are really exceptions, at least Wei Xuan didn't care, and even hid directly in the Taoist temple on the day when the Lantian County Order came to the village, and by the way, he also pulled Xuan Kui and Lao Sun. Wei Xuan's status in the village is different after all, and no one said anything if he ran away like this, and the Lantian County Commander just took office this year, and he didn't know about last year's incident, so he naturally wouldn't care that there was one less person in the village.

In fact, Wei Xuan's idea is very simple, he just doesn't want to deal with people in the court. Although Lao Sun was a little puzzled by Wei Xuan's behavior of pulling himself away, he didn't take it to heart, but he was still a little happy, after all, it was much more convenient to enter the mountain from the Taoist temple than from the village. As for what Wei Xuan thinks, what does it have to do with him?

However, Wei Xuan still underestimated the influence of those two ears of wheat, and also underestimated the trouble it caused, even if the source of this trouble was just a child.
