Chapter 71: Anything is Possible
Today's protagonist is a cow. Speaking of cattle, it is very coincidental that the mountain where the tribe of Geduo is stationed is called Niutou Mountain.
However, they didn't know the name of this mountain when they moved here, but they chose this place because the terrain and various conditions were very livable, and later they learned from the mouths of the people at the bottom of the mountain that they called this place Niutou Mountain.
Niutou Mountain is not a famous mountain, it is not recorded in the official map or local government records, but the people of nearby villages and towns gave it such a name, and it has been passed down and continued, and this mountain is named "Niutou Mountain"
It's at least a few hundred years old.
The sky had just dawned, the east had just turned white, and the grassland was still shrouded in a cloud of mist.
The big bull personally selected by Governor Zhang was lying lazily on the wet grass, its tail raised from time to time, and it was gently brushed on its body, extremely leisurely.
There was grass in its mouth, but it was too lazy to eat it, and it was obvious that it was already full.
Around this big bull, they are the people of the Zhang family, the Yu family, the Guoji family, and the Geduo Lao cottage, as well as several toast masters as witnesses, they are in their own camps, and they are distinct.
Some flags had been planted there, but only a few soldiers were standing, and the main man was still on the way.
The Zhang family came to Zhang Yi, the brother of Zhang Fatzi, and his precious son Zhang Yutong, and the two escorted the sturdy bull all the way, and the bull was lying on the grass in front of them, and there was a plough next to it, the ploughshare was sharp and shining, and it was specially made of fine steel.
Director Tixi is still a "guest" on Niutou Mountain
。
One of his own uncles, who lived in the countryside, survived that day and was not caught in the mountains.
I also came here today.
said that he was an uncle, but he was just a senior man, but in fact, he was less than thirty years older than Zhang Yi.
The old man looked at the ox and then at the plow, and said puzzledly: "The ox is a strong bull, and this plough uses such good steel, and the earth house." What do you mean, it is clear that they want to trap our old Zhang family. Are we still afraid that this cow will not plough fast enough? ”
Zhang Yi glanced at the big bull lying leisurely, and explained in a low voice: "Uncle, if people don't support the plow, the land will either be plowed." Either the ploughshare will jump out of the ground and make only a mark on the ground. According to the agreement, as long as the place is dragged by the ploughshare, it is not necessary to plough and turn over the soil, do you understand? ”
The old man suddenly realized, stroked his white beard and nodded: "I see, with a sharp and good ploughshare, the ploughshare is not easy to jump out of the ground?" ”
Zhang Yi said: "Yes, the ploughshare is sharp." It's easy to penetrate deep into the soil, and if there is no one to help it, it will be crooked in the soil. That makes it harder to drag. ”
The old man first looked happy and praised: "Good! The calculation is fine enough! ”
Then he complained: "It's just a good plow, why do you have to pick such a strong bull?" ”
Zhang Yutong interjected: "Uncle, it's difficult for us to do anything about the cow. If we don't choose a sturdy bull, the Gedo's side won't agree, if they bring out a cow. It is difficult to say whether they had led the ox several times beforehand to make the ox remember the familiar path. Then it's easy to get out of our control. ”
The old man thought about it, thought it was true, and stroked his beard "Hmm"
He nodded.
The people of the Yu family had not arrived at this time, and after the people from the Geduo Guy's side arrived, a group of people came over and began to check the bull to prevent the Zhang family from doing anything to the cow.
Zhang Yi sneered and walked away disgustedly, and Zhang Yutong immediately caught up.
Zhang Yi walked slowly on the grass and asked quietly: "Nephew, are you sure that cows hate red the most?" ”
Zhang Yutong looked back and said in a low voice: "When I went to Beijing to pay tribute for my father the year before last, my nephew once met several Western monks, among whom there was a Western monk who talked about their hometown and once mentioned that the samurai of their country liked to use swords to tease and kill bullfights. According to the Western monks, when those samurai fought bulls, they would hold a sword in one hand and a red cloth in the other, and if they waved the red cloth a few times, they would make the bullfighting mad and rush over with no life. ”
Zhang Yutong smiled and said, "My nephew is also afraid that what this Western monk said is not true, or that the cattle in their country have different preferences from the cattle here in ours." So after choosing a bull, I tried it once, and the big bull was so disgusted with red that my nephew only danced the red cloth a few times, and then it rushed at my nephew, and almost picked at him with its sharp horns. ”
Zhang Yi said happily: "Okay! This is the news you heard from the Westerners, no one of us here knows, now that we have mastered such a secret method, we can win today. Hehe, I'm going to see how that little slut in the Yu family will cry when the time comes! ”
Zhang Yutong smiled and said: "In front of everyone's eyes, if we use a red cloth to tease the bull, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of the Geduo guys." So the nephew thought of another way, and the nephew arranged more than a dozen people, pretending to be wedding greeters and sending relatives, wearing red wedding clothes and waiting in front, as long as the cow went to our Zhangjia plow, it would be teased to rush to the territory of the Yu family. ”
Zhang Yi nodded fiercely: "Hmm! Since you are pretending to be a kisser, then prepare some artillery battles to scare it and drive it away with the sound of explosions! ”
Zhang Yutong said proudly: "Not to mention artillery battles, gongs, cymbals, suona, everything is available." ”
The uncle and nephew looked at each other and laughed out loud.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ Ye Xiaotian and Wen Ao accompanied Geduo Lao, Seducer and several cottage leaders to inspect the bull.
There were already people who could serve the cattle in the cottage, and Wen Ao also specially invited an old cropper from Yu's house, and the two of them repeatedly checked the ploughing cattle and ploughs several times to confirm that they had not done anything else.
At this time, Mrs. Tixi Yu's palm print came with her son.
The little toast in Yujiazhai was carried off the horse by the guards, and when he raised his eyes, he happened to see Geduo Lao, and immediately cheered, "Father-in-law!" ”
And he ran over with joy.
Ye Xiaotian was stunned, and saw Ge Duo Lao bending down, catching Yu's little toast and hugging him, with a smile on his face.
The seducer chuckled and explained to Ye Xiaotian: "When the adults return to Tongren, our cottage will meet with Yujiazhai in Yangkou Mountain. The two sides talked very well, and Mrs. Zhangyin of Yujiazhai said that Geduo Lao was very similar to her deceased husband, so she asked her son to worship Geduo Lao as his father-in-law. Hehe, this little toast is only a few years older than Mijiu, and Xiao Mijiu likes him very much when he goes up the mountain. ”
Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, he knew best what Yu Fushun looked like to Chief Tu, where was he similar to Geduo?
He glanced at Mrs. Palm Print, who was standing aside, smiling at the affectionate Mrs. Geldo and Little Toast, and suddenly realized: "Little Toast is too young, and his mother is looking for a helper for him." ”
In this way, the relationship between the two families is closer.
When Xiao Mijiu grows up, he wants to inherit his father's position and become the leader of the Geduo Lao tribe, and his brother-in-law is the owner of Yujiazhai, the two take care of each other, and Ye Xiaotian is also happy to see it.
As a result, Ye Xiaotian suddenly thought of the Mercury Mountain, which is still unresolved and has not completely solved the problem of ownership, around the Mercury Mountain, it is the Guoji family, the Yang family, the Zhan family, and the Yu family, entangled in a messy kinship.
Now the Yu family has become relatives with the Geduo Department again.
Sometimes, in a big family, brothers fight over the family property, and they will have a lot of trouble.
I don't know if a few hundred years later, there will be something in this place of Tixi, which will cause all parties to quarrel endlessly, at that time, in addition to the four families of Zhan, Yang, Yu, and Guoji, I am afraid that the descendants of Geduo will be added again...... When Ye Xiaotian was leisurely fascinated, Guo Ji Gelong was following the petite and delicate Caini girl step by step.
Along the way, Gelong picked a branch here and a flower there, and at some point actually made a wreath, and he handed the colorful bouquet to Caini: "Miss Caini, give it to you." ”
"Why are you giving me flowers?"
Caini's fingers rested lightly on the garland, staring at Gelong, her eyes fluttering.
Ge Long grinned: "The weather is good today, the sun will come out in a while, the sun must be very poisonous, your skin is so delicate, more beautiful than flowers, if you get sunburned, it won't be distressing, wear it to block the sun." ”
Cai Ni was coaxed by his sweet words, although he was not clever, but it was difficult to have a chance to hear in the mountains, she took the garland and put it on her head generously, the petals were still decorated with crystal dew, but she couldn't hide her delicate appearance, sure enough, she was more beautiful than flowers.
Guoji Lao Tusi hid among several guards, secretly watched his son's actions, and praised in his heart: "Although my son doesn't like to use his brain with brute strength, his vision is good." This girl was born beautifully, and it must be very beautiful to give birth to a baby grandson for me. She is so shrewd, and she can make up for my son's shortcomings, this daughter-in-law wants it! ”
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ red sun, spraying out, the white clouds on the horizon are instantly covered with bright colors!
The great bull, which was a head taller than an ordinary ox, half a body larger, and as strong as a steel chariot, had risen and hung a ploughshare, like a warrior in armor.
It is in the prime of life, tall, with strong bones, tight muscles, and a black body, especially two horns, which are long, curved, and sharp.
"Roar Roar ......"
According to the agreement, there was no one to support the plow, and several knights rode their horses and stood behind the oxen, with a tall posture, and the long whip in their hands waved fiercely in the air, "popping"
The ground exploded with a few crisp explosions.
The big bull was clearly an expert in the fields, and was used to farming, and was ready to try it when the yoke put on its strong body.
"You don't have to whip yourself up"
When the whip exploded in the air, it had already moved its powerful legs and rushed forward.
The Zhang family, the Yu family, the Guoji family, the Geduo Lao seducer and others, as well as the toasts who came to act as witnesses, rode their horses one after another, followed the healthy bull, and rushed forward!
The soil is rolling happily, the shining iron plough has opened up layers of mud waves, the fog on the grassland has quickly faded under the illumination of the red sun, and the vision ahead has become clearer and clearer, and the big bull dragged the iron plough to run and run into the distance......: the last ten hours at the end of the month, ask for a monthly pass!
