There are no rough waves, nor is it like a babbling stream, the river, but it flows quietly, gently and docilely, and endures.

Geng Laohan set up a small horse on the bamboo raft, put a small pergola on the top, and floated along the river leisurely. It's been almost half a year since I arrived in Nanshan, and the Jin Ge Iron Horse has gradually gone away, and the middle-aged Geng Laohan has a slight bulge in his small belly.

Looking at the large green rice fields on the shore, Geng Laohan felt as if he had eaten honey. At the beginning, the agricultural college in the inner courtyard of the orphan had to plant this kind of thing called rice in a hundred acres of high-quality fertile land, and Geng Laohan was still a little weak in his heart. Rice used to be only occasionally talked about by people from the south, but it was never seen with their own eyes, and it is said that only the nobles of Chang'an City would eat rice from time to time. Since it is a thing eaten by nobles, it is estimated that it is not easy to serve, although Geng Laohan is a crop veteran, he can't help but feel a little worried.

As the name suggests, the draught is really powerful, and the gentleman of the Agricultural College took his dolls to spend half a month digging a long diversion canal around the rice field, turning the fertile field into a paddy field. Geng Laohan, who had been planting millet for more than ten years, was blinded at that time, and there was so much water in the field that the seedlings had not to rot their roots. The gentleman of the Agricultural College was easy to talk about, so he temporarily calmed the emotional Geng Laohan. It wasn't until the summer that the rice seedlings not only did not rot their roots, but grew stronger and stronger, standing in the field like a stick guy with their heads held high, Geng Laohan put his mind at ease and sighed secretly, he is worthy of being a gentleman sent by the prince, and he even has the ability to grow crops.

Geng Laohan is like a lion patrolling his territory, and from time to time he will drift down the river to see the hundred acres of fertile land he fiddles with, and he will never get tired of it. Just when he was in a happy mood, he saw a lot of people gathered around the edge of a rice field from a distance, and there seemed to be an argument. Geng Laohan hurriedly propped up the bamboo raft to the shore and hurried over. This rice field is the "experimental field" of Laoshizi specially set aside by the Mr. of the Agricultural College, and the best field of ten acres was selected at that time, according to Mr. The Crown Prince often asks about the situation in the experimental field, in case someone spends it, can it be returned?!

Geng Laohan came to the front and saw that the two parties to the dispute were just standing on the edge of the field and moving their mouths, without pulling, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was about to speak, but he saw a pretty girl in silk clothes looking him up and down, and asked crisply: "My husband came just in time, this field belongs to your family?" These bad guys are going to put fish in your field! ”

Geng Laohan looked at the girl, and a few companions around her who were also richly dressed, thinking that it was a noble person who had gone to the royal leisure villa in the distance to escape the summer, and hurriedly bowed down and replied: "I have seen a few young ladies of the child, this is the official field of the orphanage, and the steward will be handed over to the old man to take care of." ”

"Since it's an official field, you should take good care of it, don't let these bad guys spoil it!" When the girl heard this, she pouted at the other group of teenagers next to her, with a provocative look on her face and a look of waiting to see a good show.

Geng Laohan nodded in agreement, looking towards the girl's eyes, but saw a few familiar teenagers, and hurriedly shouted: "Zhao Li, you stinky boy is not staying in the inner courtyard, what are you doing here?!" ”

Zhao Li, who was wearing a black combat uniform, scratched his head and leaned over slowly: "Dad, a few of us took the order of the instructor and brought the students of the medical school to look for some leeches, and it happened that the students of the Agricultural College were arguing with a few young ladies in front of us. ”

"Nonsense! You're all in this together! The pretty girl pointed to his nose and said disdainfully.

When Zhao Li heard this, he didn't know what to say, just now a few of them were indeed pulling the shelf, after all, they were all from the orphanage's inner courtyard, and it was not wrong to say that they were in a group.

Geng Laohan saw that Zhao Li was a little weak-hearted, and he didn't understand the reason, so he hurriedly eased the atmosphere and said: "Miss, don't worry about them in general, they are all dolls who have never seen the world, if they accidentally collide with a few nobles, the old man will make amends for them to the nobles." ”

A little boy next to the girl tugged at her sleeve: "Sister Yan'er, forget it, my husband said so, don't worry about it." ”

Yan'er's eyes widened when she heard this, and she said angrily: "Qin Li, are you teaching me a lesson?" Or am I being stingy?! ”

Qin Li hurriedly withdrew his hand, stood aside and muttered, not daring to speak. I regret it in my heart, mother, Sister Yan'er is short-tempered, why did she provoke her if she had nothing to do?

"Okay, Yan'er, don't always bully Xiaoli." A slightly older tall girl patted Yan'er's shoulder with a smile, and then whispered softly to Father Geng, "Don't worry, my husband doesn't have to worry, although Yan'er's surname is in a hurry, she is not a bad person." Today, we originally wanted to enjoy the scenery in this field, but unexpectedly we met a few little brothers who wanted to put some fish in your field, and Yan'er was afraid that they would spoil this good seedling, so there was some dispute. ”

Geng Laohan listened to the girl's explanation, hurriedly thanked him, turned his head and scolded a few dolls from the agricultural college on the side: "What's the matter? wanted to spoil this rice field, but was stopped by Miss Yan'er, and still didn't listen to persuasion, is this still reasonable? ”

Zhang Song, the leader of the Agricultural College, was a tiger boy, so he stopped doing it when he heard the words, "Dad, this is the gentleman who asked us to put fish in the rice field, and I was so busy that I didn't eat lunch, why didn't I get scolded by you for no reason......

Zhao Li glared at him, so frightened that he shrunk his neck, and even lowered his voice. The cadets of the Military Academy are notorious, and Zhao Li is even more of a figure to be provoked.

"Oh? Mr. confessed? Hearing this, Geng Laohan nodded, "Since Mr. explained, it will definitely not be wrong, it is my father who is anxious to blame you, I will come to the house at night and invite you to eat a meal of braised pork." ”

Wow! The inner courtyard students present all shouted happily, and Zhao Li was also full of joy. Geng's father is a living bodhisattva in the courtyard, and the chief steward likes his Geng upright and loyal, and arranges a good house for him that only Mr. can live in, and the monthly rate is not low. He is alone, the whole family is not hungry, and he often goes to learn from the cooks, and he often opens a small stove for the students at home, and the taste is much better than eating a big pot of rice in the canteen of the courtyard.

Yan'er saw that the teenagers were not punished, but were rewarded, and immediately became unhappy, and hurriedly said: "You old man is so unreasonable, why don't you pay attention to this good field?" ”

When Geng Laohan heard this, he explained with a smile: "I'm afraid that a few nobles have misunderstood, since it was ordered by the gentleman of the Agricultural College, I think it must have been explained by His Royal Highness the Prince, and it can't be made wrong." ”

"Oh?" When several young ladies heard this, their eyes lit up, the prince's "born to know" had already spread in Chang'an City, and the endless novelty and good things made the younger generation worship him, and the second ancestors had their own set of outlook on life and values, a peer who also likes to have fun and like food, and the status of the prince is more cordial than the high-ranking prince.

Yan'er's big watery eyes rolled around, pretending not to believe it, and said, "You said that it was the prince's order, but there is evidence." ”

Geng Laohan was stunned when he heard this, and was dumbfounded, but Zhang Songhu was angry, took out a booklet from his arms, and said triumphantly: "This is the charter sent by the prince, Mr. recently said that he was unwell, and he was afraid of missing His Highness's major events, so he transcribed a copy and handed it to us a few ......."

Yan'er didn't wait for him to finish speaking, she snatched the booklet quickly, with a smile on her face that had succeeded in her plan, and she didn't look like a lady.

"You ......" Zhang Song couldn't help but be stunned, and was about to step forward to seize it, but was stopped by the guards brought by Yan'er.

Yan'er shook the booklet in her hand defiantly, and then handed it to the tall girl beside her like a treasure, "Sister Qing'er, look at it, the prince wrote it." ”

Qing'er looked apologetically at Zhang Song, who was scratching her ears and cheeks in a hurry, but in the end she couldn't resist the temptation, so she took the booklet and read it carefully. This kind of paper thread-bound book is now very common in Chang'an City, although the value is not low, but for the powerful and wealthy, the family will often buy a large number of them, even if they can't read it for a while, they must also fill the façade, and it is also a "scholarly door".

On the cover of the booklet is written "Precautions for Fish Farming in Rice Fields", open it and look closely, the content is divided into several major items, and many small items are subdivided under each major item, just like a big tree, divided into many branches. The words are concise but very clear, detailing how to do each step, what difficulties may be encountered, how to solve such difficulties, and how to do it after solving. After reading it carefully, Qing'er's eyes became brighter and brighter, it was really amazing, and she even felt that with this booklet, even if she had never done farm work, she would definitely be able to do this errand of "rice and fish farming".

Yan'er saw that after she read it, she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and hurriedly pulled Qing'er's sleeve, "Sister Qing'er, but is there something wrong?" ”

Qing'er's face was slightly red, she shook her head, returned the booklet to Zhang Song by herself, stopped Yan'er, who was full of disobedience, and said softly and tentatively: "This little brother, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince often send people to send you these regulations?" ”

When Zhang Song heard this, he hurriedly hid the booklet back in his arms, and said vigilantly: "It was indeed sent by the prince, you don't have to have some bad ideas." ”

Yan'er was furious when she heard this, pointed at his nose and scolded, "Who are you and us?!" It's just some charter, aren't they? ! Ming said, I begged my father to find the prince to come......"

Her voice became lower and lower, and she seemed to find that she had overspoken it, and when she saw the banter and suspicion in the eyes of Zhang Song and the teenagers, she couldn't help but blush, and her cheeks were puffed up with anger, like a ripe little apple.

Qing'er hurriedly stepped forward to ease her cheeks, lest Yan'er be embarrassed and angry, and chuckled: "Little brother misunderstood, we are just a little interested in the articles made by His Royal Highness the Prince, and we don't know where to read more." ”

Zhang Song breathed a sigh of relief, he was also afraid that the hot-tempered girl opposite would not be relenting, and the nobleman who could bring the guards would get into big trouble, so he hurriedly bowed down and said: "These charters are kept by the gentlemen, but the knowledge passed down by the prince can be consulted at any time in the library in the inner courtyard." ”

Qing'er's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "But the library in the orphanage in front?" I wonder if the little brother can take us in for a look? The eyes of the sons and ladies next to him were also full of expectation, this orphanage is said to have been built by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the library of Nalaoshzi is probably also a new thing, but I don't know how it compares to the heavenly world, I must go and see what it is.

"You can't go in!" Just as they were waiting for Zhang Song's answer with anticipation, a cold voice came, which seemed extremely firm and unforgiving.
