Chapter 205: Back to the old business

There is an empress in Miyagi who wants to see it in person, so naturally the provincial examination list cannot be sent out today as originally planned, in case the empress changes it after reading it.

Therefore, Ouyang Zijin was holding the box to resume his life, but the five examiners had to continue to stay in the marking courtyard sadly, waiting for the empress to approve it, and then the list was announced, so that they could complete the emperor's order and leave Shangshu Province and go back to their respective homes.

After being confined to a small courtyard for half a month, it seems that he is about to be free, and now he can return to the pre-liberation period, and the days of confinement are estimated to be extended by one day or two or three days.

Fortunately, I stayed for a lot of time, and I didn't care about these two or three days, and more importantly, the empress suddenly wanted to see it in person, such a different move, how could the five examiners not think deeply, so when they saw the red glow welcoming the sky, it was already sunset, and they went back to their rooms and had their own complicated thoughts.

After sunset, night falls.

The sun rises and the moon sets, and it's another day.

It is now the weather in the middle of February, the cold spring has passed, the days are getting longer, and when the genius is numb and bright, there is a trace of red glow in the white of the fish belly turned out in the east.

At this time, it was just dawn, and among the vast manors of the powerful people in the southern suburbs of Chang'an City, except for two or three officials who had rested here last night, they hurriedly rode horses to catch up with the morning court, and there was silence everywhere.

Suddenly, only to hear a "squeak", a small fenced courtyard that was incompatible with the surrounding mansions opened from the inside, and a little lady in gray with her hair combed in a double bun walked out of the yard with a hoe on her shoulder.

Then, when she went straight to a field, she rolled up her narrow gray sleeves, and began to loosen the soil for the field, which had been frozen for the winter, for the next sowing.

On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops into the soil. At this time, although it was not yet noon, and in the early morning when the weather was cool, but kept waving the hoe, and after a while it was sweating, the little lady in gray should be used to doing farm work, she felt a little struggling, and did not stop to take a rest, so she gritted her teeth, took advantage of this strength, and quickly loosened the soil of this acre of field in front of her, otherwise when the sun was hot at noon, it would be the most tiring.

The little lady in gray acted skillfully, waiting for the red glow in the white belly of the oriental fish to bloom, a round of red sun rose from the eastern sky, she had loosened the soil for most of the fields, and the sweat on her head did not know how many times she had wiped it, her temples were full of sweat-soaked hair, and her cheeks were full of red tide.

People are not mechanical and tireless, but they keep waving the hoe again and again, after a long time, the soreness of the arm and waist bar has long been numb, and the mind is blank, the only thought is to loosen the soil of the field, and I don't know that as the sky gradually brightens, there are more and more tourists to the southern suburbs, and there are also people in the surrounding mansions and manors who have come out one after another, and they are not willing to live up to this good spring.

There is the golden sunshine sprinkled on the water surface of the Qujiang River, sparkling, and there are fine willows and new pus turning out of the green, touching the eye is full of beautiful scenery, suddenly there is a ploughing field and the peasant girl is not aware of the eye-catching.

In particular, the little lady in gray who cultivated was tall, and the half-old gray cloth skirt on her body was still a long length, but she looked like she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, her face was very tender, and her skeleton was slender.

"The land of Gyeonggi is rich, but in our Chang'an City, there is such a thing as calling the little lady to the land!"

"Yes, that little lady looks very slender with long hands and feet, how can she lift that hoe."

"What does this mean, it shows that the little lady is used to doing rough work on weekdays!"

……

Although the surrounding neighbors are not easy to say, they also look at them strangely, in a big family like them, that is, the maids are all raised delicately, and they have never done rough work, let alone this kind of work.

A master and a servant have been standing on the ridge of the field since the sun rises, and as long as they have been standing, they have been looking at each other strangely.

The manservant is not as determined as his master, and said with an embarrassed expression: "Master, the weather is warming up today, and there are many people who come to the green, if you keep letting Liu Niangzi work in the field, I am afraid that the small one will hinder the master's reputation." ”

As she spoke, she glanced at the little lady in gray who was loosening the soil with a hammer in the field, it was only the fifth day, and she had to loosen the soil on the four acres of land around the yard.

The manservant couldn't help but think that seven or eight days ago, he saw her a delicate little lady, and he was quite polite, and he moved a little compassion, and told the master where he went, so that she could take some less wrongful paths, but she and the master turned out to be old acquaintances, and they were as powerful as men.

Thinking of this, he looked left and right at his little arms and legs, imagining that he waved his hoe and plowed the four acres of land around the yard in just a few days.

But in order to avoid the strange eyes of the people around him, the manservant continued to persuade: "So, master, do you want to let Mrs. Liu rest?" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Mo still looked at Liu Chenxing, who was working in the fields, and ignored the discussions around, and was not affected by the surrounding eyes in the slightest, and said: "Ah Sheng, the old man has lived to this age, and it doesn't matter if his reputation is good or bad, but Ah Xing ......."

After a pause, a smile appeared on his face, and he brushed his beard and said: "She said that she would farm, but I didn't expect it to be true, and it will save trouble when the old man plows in the spring and autumn harvest in the future." ”

Later?

The manservant Ah Sheng's eyes widened violently, and he looked at Jiang Mo incredulously, but when he saw his master looking at Liu Chenxing in the field with a smile, and thought that the master was willing to let Liu Chenxing move his four acres of land, but he never let other Langjun ladies who came to apprentice to go to the ground, he nodded thoughtfully, and couldn't help but rejoice in the good thought of the day.

This is not?

It is estimated that it will not be long before she becomes her own lady.

The thought flashed, and a crisp voice said: "Teacher, this afternoon, Ah Xing will be able to loosen the soil of four acres of land, and then it depends on the teacher, what do you want to plant?" Ah Xing planted it together. ”

was about to turn over the rest of the land in one go, but he didn't expect to be a little tired, he straightened up with his waist, and saw Jiang Mo standing on the ridge at some point, Liu Chenxing hurriedly waved to Jiang Mo happily.

It's already three poles in the sun, and the girl's sweaty face doesn't know whether it's red, or tired and red, thinking of the noble girls in Chang'an who are afraid of tanning, and generally after tanning, they will turn black, and then think of Liu Chenxing, a white and good-looking little lady, Jiang Mo couldn't help but say: "Don't be in a hurry to sow these two days, turn the soil tomorrow morning, don't you want to make white hot pot for the old man?" Ah Sheng has already prepared pork bones and a few river crabs, just waiting for you to cook, come on. ”
