Chapter Seventy-Three: The Autumn Harvest (Part II)
Two flowers, one on each table. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info and Zhang Xin, who was already crazy a few days in advance, although he escaped temporarily by relying on Lu Jinshi, he was still caught by Zhang Yi in the small attic and continued to study hard. It is said that Zhang Xi took Dorsey and Mo Si, one of them carried a sickle, and each carried a big basket on his back and walked on the dirt road in the village. Zhang Xi was secretly ashamed as he walked, he had forgotten everything on such an important day as the autumn equinox...... It's too much to say...... Thinking of this, Zhang Xi smacked his mouth again, and he couldn't blame it all, it was all to blame for Brother Xin's invention of the "Three Kingdoms Killing", which was so fun...... Now I still have the Three Kingdoms Kill in my head.
Zhang Xi hurriedly shook his head, wanting to throw out the Three Kingdoms Killing. It's fun, but it can't be eaten, and if you don't pick up your own fields now, you'll be hungry next year. Speaking of which, I really envy the recruitment and twelve guards in the state, as long as they practice martial arts seriously every day, and pay their military salaries on time in their own states or provinces every month. Although the government soldiers are also Tang Army, but the treatment is really far worse than that of the Twelve Guards, they are simply farmers who put down their hoes, and the land allocated by each person will be able to feed people, and if you want to make money, you have to save some food from between your teeth and go to the market to exchange ...... I really want to follow the master and Brother Xin to make a great contribution, so that Lord Thorn Shi will look at us differently and promote us to the recruitment of soldiers in the state......
Just as they were thinking about entering the world, the three of them had already walked to their own fields. I saw that the fields were scattered with ripe grain, and there were dozens of acres at a glance.
Zhang Xi sighed, two acres of wheat were planted on dozens of acres of land, and the rest were all big red sorghum with higher yields. Looking at these two acres of wheat, Zhang Xi felt a little greedy, but unfortunately most of this wheat was to be exchanged for money, and the rest was enough to fight for the New Year's Festival.
"Alright, let's get started!" With Zhang Xi's order, Dorsey and Mo Si respectively pulled up their trouser legs and went to the field to collect grain. At this time, it is estimated that the sun is just after the end of the day, and the sun is hanging in the sky hotly, and I don't feel the coolness of the beginning of autumn at all, I just feel that the sun is going to dry people. Zhang Xi looked up at the sun above his head, only to feel a bright dizziness, and picked up a handful of cut sorghum with his left hand and threw it into the basket behind him, "Hey, Brother Xin is at ease now, and he doesn't have to be exposed to the wind and sun, the cool breeze is blowing in the small attic, and I don't know how refreshing it is......"
The sun gradually turned directly above his head, Zhang Xi, who had worked for more than an hour, only felt a rumbling in his stomach, beckoning Dorsey and Mo Si to pile up the harvested grain, and the three of them found a large poplar tree with a lush crown and sat on the ground, and one of them took out a water bladder and poured water into his throat. While I was irrigating, I heard someone shouting from afar on the edge of the ridge: "Ah Xi...... Ah Xi ......"
"Here's it!" As soon as Zhang Xi waved his hand, he saw a figure in the distance slowly changing from small to large, and when he looked closely, it was Lu Jinshi, who was wearing a cyan scholar's robe, carrying a food box in his hand, and stepped on the ridge of the field with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
"Oh, Jinshi, why did you come to deliver food?" Zhang Xi hurriedly greeted him, took the food box from Lu Jinshi's hand, and asked casually.
"The money and grain in the warehouse this summer have been delivered, and I have nothing to do, so I just come out and slip away."
Zhang Xi let out an "oh" and opened the food box, "Yo...... So abundant today! ”
"If you want to work, you have to do something, otherwise how can you have the strength? Hurry up and give me a bowl, I haven't eaten yet! ”
Zhang Xi divided the big clay bowl in the food box, the four of them sat on the ground, Zhang Xi picked up a clay bowl, first looked at a whole bowl of dried wheat rice in the bowl, spread a thick layer of wild vegetables on it, and pulled it with chopsticks and turned out a large piece of fatty meat. Just thinking about the little wheat in the field, it was already in the bowl. Well...... It's a good sign! At the moment, I picked up the fat slices with chopsticks, slipped them into my mouth, and licked the oil and water on my lips at the end.
"Hey...... Speaking of which, it would be nice if Brother Xin was also there, just take the Three Kingdoms Kill and continue to kill! ”
Compared with Zhang Xi's gobbling up, Lu Jinshi was obviously much more gentle, chewing the granular wheat in the bowl in small sips and said, "Don't think about it...... The old man can suppress the fire in his heart, if you have to provoke him at this time, there will be no good fruit to eat! ”
"That's right......" Zhang Xi put down the empty bowl and scratched the back of his head, "I don't know how Brother Xin's book is......"
"How's it going?" The corners of Lu Jinshi's mouth showed a hint of schadenfreude, "The fifth master hasn't even finished reading a volume now, don't think that where he sits every day is reading a book, I can see the door clearly, where the fifth master starts to wander outside the object every day, and I don't know what he is thinking......"
"Huh?" Zhang Xi was taken aback, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" It's over...... Master, don't take the test at this time, if you can't suppress the fire at that time, it's easy to say anything else, our Three Kingdoms Kill may not be able to be saved. ”
"Don't worry." The old god Lu Jinshi said: "I told Brother Zicheng, let's give a few days of grace first, and then go to the test when the autumn harvest is over." When the time comes, if nothing else, a mere set of Three Kingdoms Killings can still be hidden in advance. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Xi was not worried about the killing of the Three Kingdoms, and showed the same gloating smile on his face as Lu Jinshi, "Jinshi...... I'm suddenly looking forward to a big ****, hehe...... Hey, hey, hey......"
"Alright, stop giggling." Lu Jinshi rolled his eyes, got up and put the dishes and chopsticks back in the food box, "Come, give me a sickle, it's okay to do anything in the afternoon, I'll go down to the ground with you." ”
"Huh? Jinshi, don't be kidding, how can you be a scholar? Just rest. ”
"Come on." Lu Jinshi rolled his eyes, "Before I was admitted to the imperial examination, I was just a Tian Shelang, if I didn't farm, I would have starved to death, and I was the same as the aristocratic lord in Chang'an...... Alright, get me a scythe. ”
