Zhang Jiusheng put his hands on his waist, watching a few catchers quickly send the two out of the yamen uneasily, and when he turned around and heard Guan Chu say this, he suddenly became irritable.

"What's the matter? Can you finish it all at once? If you can fix it yourself, don't look for me, it's annoying. Zhang Jiusheng waved his hand and was about to leave, but was stopped by Guan Chu.

"My lord, that's the case, the autumn harvest is coming soon."

Before Guan Chu finished speaking, Zhang Jiusheng reacted: "The autumn harvest is coming so soon?" ”

"yes, so you see ......"

"When, exactly?"

Guan Chu thought about it, snapped his fingers again, and said: "It should be only these two days, take advantage of the good weather, hurry up and harvest the rice, otherwise when the autumn rain comes, our harvest this year will be all in vain." ”

"Okay, you can arrange to go, and let me know when the time comes."

Guan Chu nodded and was about to leave, but was pulled back by Zhang Jiusheng again, and said: "Anyone in the yamen who has hands and feet will be arranged out, and Mr. Lu doesn't have to call it, it's not easy to get a lot of age." ”

"Yes, sir."

"Go get busy." Zhang Jiusheng waved his hand, watching Guan Chu leave the yamen, but he himself stood in the empty courtyard, turned to look at the mirror hanging plaque above his head, and suddenly unloaded his shoulders.

In the past six months, Zhang Jiusheng seems to have slowly begun to get used to the days when there was no Yunsheng around him, and Hongdoutai did not go again, but occasionally he would see his eldest brother who was unclothed and sat opposite him in Baishitang.

Zhang Jiusheng asked Zhang Qiye what he meant, but Zhang Qiye pretended to be deaf and dumb, asked too much, and couldn't ask anything, Zhang Jiusheng also felt bored, so he stopped asking.

Feelings, such as people drinking water, know whether they are warm or cold.

He hasn't even landed yet.

Guan Chu's movements were very fast, and the villagers of several villages outside the city were arranged, as well as the women and children who were specially responsible for the food and rest of the rice harvesting villagers.

This year's harvest is almost twice as much as in previous years, so there are a lot more people in hand than in previous years, when the list was handed over, Zhang Jiusheng was startled, no wonder Guan Chu was so anxious to transfer people, if it was later, I am afraid that when the autumn rain comes, a lot of rice will be drowned.

Guan Chu took Zhang Jiusheng and went to the fields outside the city to have a look.

The ears of rice hung on it heavily, the grains were full, and the yellow and clear patches were a whole year of hard work and sweat, and an inexplicable sense of accomplishment could not be suppressed from the depths of the heart.

"What's the matter? I think it's almost over, why don't you arrange someone this afternoon, pack up early and enjoy the happiness early? Zhang Jiusheng clapped his hands and asked.

Guan Chu counted the number of acres, nodded and said, "The subordinates also feel that it is okay." ”

"Then let's go."

Seeing Guan Chu trotting and calling someone, Zhang Jiusheng rubbed his nose, took off his robe and threw it aside, while he quickly rolled up his sleeves, borrowed a small sickle from a nearby farmer, and jumped into the ground in one fell swoop.

By the time Guan Chu brought people back, Zhang Jiusheng had already cut a small piece of land.

"Your Excellency!"

Zhang Jiusheng straightened his waist, his face was covered with sweat, and he kept falling, his face was flushed because of the heat, and he turned around and waved his hand at Guan Chu: "Hurry up!" ”

"Hurry up, get off the ground! All to the ground! Follow what I told you before, arrange people, cut rice, thresh, and hold on! Guan Chu shouted loudly, and while shouting, he also took off his coat, took off the sidecar and threw it aside, picked up the sickle handed over by the people next to him, and jumped off the ground.

Not long after, Zhang Qiye also came.

He also took a group of medicine children in Baishitang, each of whom carried a lot of things in large bags and small bags, and heard him say that it was a summer tea distributed to the people, and he specially divided it into a small package of medicine bags, soaked in tea, there was no need to spit out tea leaves, and a lot of medicinal materials were added to relieve fatigue and relieve the heat.

Zhang Jiusheng went to the ground early, since he was a child, where did he do such heavy work, and after a while, he was so tired that he couldn't do it, his eyes were covered with sweat, and it hurt hotly.

Just when Zhang Jiusheng was rubbing his eyes and was about to plant it, Guan Chuyan quickly helped him: "My lord, are you okay?" Otherwise, you go and rest for a while, the eldest young master is here, you go and have some tea and rest, here we come. ”

Zhang Jiusheng waved his hand and held Guan Chu's shoulder, wanting to refuse, but he was so tired that he couldn't lift his hand, and the hand holding the sickle was trembling all the time.

Expecting that he was not very good, Zhang Jiusheng was not reckless, and patted Guan Chu on the shoulder: "I'll leave it to you here, I'll ...... I'll go sit down for a while. ”

Zhang Jiusheng gasped and walked up the ridge step by step.

Zhang Qiye was still handing out summer tea, and when he saw Zhang Jiusheng coming, he hurriedly walked over to help him.

"Brother, don't touch it, I'm sweaty."

"I haven't smelled anything on you, and I'm afraid of this?" Zhang Qiye already felt sorry for his younger brother, seeing him like this, he hurriedly asked for a bowl of tea: "Drink some, you have to rest for a while." ”

Zhang Jiusheng's hand holding the tea bowl trembled uncontrollably, and the tea was shaken out several times.

As soon as Zhang Qiye grasped Zhang Jiusheng's trembling hand, Zhang Jiusheng glanced at him, pulled out a smile, and barely took a few sips of tea on Zhang Qiye's hand.

"It's really a pampered life, this rice can be tired like this, it's not easy, it's not easy for them." Zhang Jiusheng said with emotion.

"It's not easy for everyone." Zhang Qiye said, soaking a clean towel, and then wiping Zhang Jiusheng's face and neck.

Zhang Jiusheng sat there, letting Zhang Qiye hand him up and down.

He looked at the ears of rice that were constantly being thrown out of the field, and the villagers who were threshing the ears of rice not far away, under the dazzling sunlight, the golden powder fluttered in the air, and the soft light seemed to be sprinkled on everyone's face.

The smile is so dazzling, and yet so beautiful.

"When you go back today, you have to soak your feet and your hands, otherwise when you get up tomorrow, you will have blisters on your hands and feet, and you will have to bear it then." Zhang Qiye chattered.

Since he was a child, where did he let Zhang Jiusheng suffer like this.

Zhang Jiusheng turned his head and pulled away a huge smile and said, "Brother, happy." ”

Zhang Qiye shook his head helplessly.

Finally, all the rice was harvested, and before the sun went down completely, Zhang Jiusheng helped the villagers send the rice back to the village, and according to the proportion, the government took a part of it and put it into the Yamen warehouse.

However, just as Zhang Jiusheng was helping to put the grain into the granary, suddenly there were clouds and thunder.

Zhang Jiusheng's eyes widened and asked, "Didn't you say that the weather was good?" ”

Guan Chu was also stunned, the weather is changing, there is no order, he didn't have time to say anything nonsense to Zhang Jiusheng, so he immediately took someone to the back, waving his hand vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Hurry, it's going to rain, hurry up and move the grain into the granary!" Fast! ”

This was followed by another thunderclap, almost as close as it had exploded near a human ear.

Zhang Jiusheng was startled, and then picked up a bag of grain and rushed to the granary, but when he stepped into the granary with his front foot and threw down the bag of grain, the rain fell majestically, crackling and smashing on the roof and the ground, the sound was huge, and it hurt to hit people's heads and faces.

"My lord, there is still a lot of food that hasn't been moved in!" Guan Chu rushed back from behind the crowd.

"How many more?"

"More than two hundred bags!" Guan Chu shouted.

Zhang Jiusheng rubbed his nose and shouted, "Move quickly!" Otherwise, it's all drenched! ”

After many people in the city heard about it, they also came to help, the number of people was fast, Zhang Qiye sent ginger tea to all the people who helped to ward off the cold, Zhang Jiusheng held the ginger tea, and stood aside and shivered with cold.

At the end of this day, the heat was hot, the cold was cold, and the iron body couldn't bear it.

When he was finally able to take a sip of hot tea, Zhang Jiusheng only felt that the things in front of him were always spinning above his head, and then they became more and more blurry until he fell to the ground.

"Your Excellency!" Zhang Tong shouted and helped Zhang Jiusheng up, but found that his head was just on the steps, and blood instantly flowed down his fingers.

Zhang Qiye had just handed hot tea to a villager, and when he heard the shout, he saw Zhang Jiusheng's head full of blood.

His heart was beating for a moment, and then he was pressed down by himself.

Probing Zhang Jiusheng's pulse, Zhang Qiye breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, I'm too tired, and the wound on my head is not a big problem, I'll bandage him, and I won't even see the scar in a few days." ”

Guan Chu and Zhang Tong were relieved at this time.

When Zhang Jiusheng was lying in bed, because of the high fever, he kept dreaming, and the scenes in the dream were bizarre, there was everything, happy, angry, sweet, bitter, everything.

But each one of them is Yunsheng.

"Second Young Master, you are the dignified county magistrate of Fan County, can you respect your identity? Don't run to the red bean platform all day long? ”

"My lord? My lord! Adult ......"

"I'm a person, I know it in my heart, why are you so good to me?"

"My lord, this account is the tax of previous years, you have to put it carefully. This is the monthly silver to be issued to the catchers, and the red pen is crossed when it is sent, and there are temporary additions, for example, if you think anyone has done a good job and has a meritorious piece, you will receive a reward here, and you have to add it, and the accounts of this month must be checked again......"

"My lord, I think there are other things to say about this case."

"My lord? Second young master? ”

"Zhang Jiusheng!"

When the hustle and bustle is silent, the dark clouds fade away, the sun shines and peeks out from behind, and a gust of wind blows, and the blue sky is like a wash.

"Second Young Master, I want to eat the food you cooked."

Zhang Jiusheng opened his eyes suddenly, and after a while, he only felt that something very heavy seemed to be pressed on his arm, he slowly lowered his head, and saw a person with a black head and a simple wooden hairpin.

"Yunsheng?" Zhang Jiusheng used a voice that could almost only be heard by mosquitoes to summon the name that had not been spoken again for more than half a year.

The man raised his head and smiled at him, "My lord, you are finally awake!" ”
