"It's so heavy and you can't bear such a long distance, you two can't afford to suffer so much. Ay! If you wait a little longer, the eldest brother will rush to Xiaolizhuang. Two bags of coarse rice, Li Yi picked up one bag in one hand and put it on the horse's back. Li Yi pulled hard and tied the mouths of the two bags together.

"How does this work?" Wang said softly.

"Why not? Let's go, let's not say a word as a family, and chatter while walking! Li Yi held the reins of the horse, looked at Li Er's daughter-in-law with a smile, and turned his eyes to Li Er's body: "Brother is coming back this time, and he has to do a big thing." This is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and not something that three or two people can do. My brother thinks of the second brother, a good helper, and I need you to help me with all my might. ”

"How can a brother be unheard, talentless, and incompetent? I'm afraid I'll delay my brother's plan, so I hope my brother will find someone else! "Li Er is a real person, and what he says is also true.

"Second brother, you are loyal and trustworthy, which is why my brother values you." Li Yi stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Er: "Don't worry, I won't be embarrassed for you." Growing crops is your old job, and you have already tried new technologies, so if you are the first to eat crabs, my brother will not let the flowers fall to the next family. ”

"Growing crops? What's the big deal? Li Er looked puzzled.

"Filling your belly isn't a big deal? You braved the wind and rain, and worked hard day and night for half a year, isn't it just for these bags of rice? Li Yi's eyes stared at Li Er without blinking, and he lowered his head: "Your husband and wife have a full meal, which is a major event for your Li Er's family; The people of Xiaolizhuang do not starve, which is a major event for more than 20 people in the village; In Taiping Village and nearby, thousands of people are not hungry, which is the challenge that Li Yi faces. Things are complicated, and I am really too busy to rely on me alone, which requires you, a good brother, to help and share the responsibility of the eldest brother! ”

"Good! If you can do it, you will do your best! Li Er raised his head bravely, his tone was extremely firm.

"Good brother, big brother will please you!" Li Yi held Li Er's hand tightly, and he turned to Wang again: "My brother and sister are also a person who understands, and the burden of the second brother is not light, so I need you to be a good helper, help him inside and out, don't distract him too much, the eldest brother will thank the younger brother and sister on behalf of the second brother!" ”

"Big brother, what do you say! Waiting for a good husband is what a concubine should do! Wang took small steps and followed closely behind Li Er, she was already out of breath and sweating.

"My brother-in-law is happy!" Li Yi only found out at this time that Wang's body was obviously fat twice, and it was really hellish that a poor person could be fat in these years when he couldn't eat enough, so he concluded that she was pregnant and hurriedly slowed down her walking speed.

"The people of the mountains and fields are used to it, and the family is pregnant with a child, but it doesn't affect anything, let's go as usual, and take care of her!" Glancing at his wife, Li Er said casually.

"Brother, you're so old, and you're still like a child, you just don't know how to cherish people!" Li Yi shook his head and said: "Walking fast or slow, how much time can be different, it has nothing to do with the overall situation, let's leave it alone!" Let's go slowly, so that we can explain to you what we need to accomplish in the near future. ”

"The eldest brother just commands, and the younger brother must keep it in mind." Li Er stared at Li Yi intently.

Li Yi had seen the memory of the second brother, which was much stronger than himself, and he smiled slightly: "Second brother, when you arrive in Taiping Village, you must seize every opportunity to publicize your successful experience. ”

"That's all?" Seeing that Li Yi stopped talking, Li Er couldn't help but ask.

"That's all for now, are you? I'll tell you what you're going to do next year. On the way back from Luoyang, we bought a large number of seeds, including millet, sorghum, beans and millet, which grew quite well in other places, but we did not know if we moved to another place. It is only by conducting trial plantings that regional differences can be revealed. You have to classify and record each variety in detail, this task is complicated and boring, but the importance is self-evident, it is related to whether thousands or thousands of people can eat enough, brother, your burden is not light! Li Yi patted Li Er's shoulder.

Li Yi briefly talked about the journey of this trip, but hid the part of the assassination. After listening to Li Yi's magical experience, as well as meeting Zhang Ying and Yu Bing, Li Er and his wife were really surprised and happy.

Seeing that it was still far away from Taiping Village, Li Yi simply talked about the knowledge of seed cultivation. How to breed is only introduced in books, Li Yi is very interested in it, and inadvertently memorized a rough idea, but he didn't expect to use it now. has never linked theory with practice, and if he encounters a problem, he can only slowly scrutinize and study, Li Yi took a preventive shot in advance, so that the second brother was mentally prepared.

It involves many modern terms and concepts, such as germ, cotyledons, frost-free period, growth period, germination test, pistil, stamens, etc., as long as Li Er has any doubts, he immediately patiently and meticulously explains. While talking and laughing, the three of them unknowingly came to Taiping Village.

"Sure enough, it was immediate!" Li Yi looked at the empty street and couldn't help but blurt out admiration. "Xue Xin's ability is good, Song Zhi, a slippery head, can be regarded as selling his strength, and all the people on the street who are full of Dengden have been evacuated! Let's go, let's go to the Taiping Inn! ”

"Big brother, my brother still asks you for something!" Seeing that Li Yi stopped talking, Li Er hesitated for a moment and finally opened his mouth.

"What is polite about our brother, if you have something to say, if your brother can do it, you must help your brother!" Li Yi has a lot of money on the surface, but he is uneasy in his heart, afraid that Li Er will throw out a problem and make him in a dilemma.

"Listening to the people of Taiping Village, the names of Xue Xin and Song Zhi were all given by the eldest brother. The younger brother doesn't have a decent name yet, so please bother the eldest brother and give the younger brother a name. "It is almost everyone's dream to have their own name, but the difference in class, which scholar will look at the poor man who hoes the ground? But Li Yi is different, he has no concept of hierarchy and opens a door for the poor.

Yes, the second brother showed up in front of people and was called by "Li Er", which is a little indecent, he should give Li Er a name, what is his name? Li Yi frowned and walked forward slowly, he suddenly had an idea, and said with a slight smile: "There is!" How about Li Feng, Feng is the abundance of a bumper harvest, indicating that the brothers have a bumper harvest and a successful career! ”

"Good! That's great! Li Feng, who was illiterate, had no more judgment, but he regarded his eldest brother as a god, and Li Yi talked about his heart again, of course, he was ecstatic and cheered.
