Chapter 229: Spring Ploughing
Medicine knot concentric 229_Chapter 229 Spring ploughing from Bayi Chinese Network (.) Officialdom entertainment, official prostitutes are prevalent, civil officialdom is still subtle, but in the military attache arena is debauchery, although Liu Meibao has not seen it with his own eyes, but he has been more or less cautious to inquire.
"Then I didn't pay attention, you know I don't eat and drink either, just sit down and leave." Lu Yan said with a serious face.
"It's good to know, dare to taste it, you can try it." Liu Meibao said to him with a pretended threat on his nose.
Lu Yan hugged her and kissed her on the face a few times, Liu Meibao was kissed by him and laughed, laughing and dodging couldn't help but be emotional, Lu Yan's eyes changed, and he looked at her like this, Liu Meibao only felt that her body was weak.
"It's going to be two months...", she couldn't help but reach out and put her arms around his neck, and whispered with a little shyness and a little fiery.
The soft body, a little bigger, towering and clinging to his chest, Lu Yan only felt that his throat was dry, and his lower body suddenly swelled and ached, he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and forcibly suppressed **.
"I've asked, we'll be fine after three months, let's wait, it's a few days," he said in a dumb voice.
Liu Meibao was excited by these words and got off him.
"Who did you ask?" She stared at Lu Yan, her face flushed.
"Brother Jiu, I'll ask whoever has given birth...."Lu Yan said with a grin, and before the words fell, Liu Meibao twisted it in his waist, and when he saw his little wife's blushing face, he could drip water.
"How can you ask someone about this kind of thing?" Liu Meibao stomped her foot and said.
"We don't know about this kind of thing, what's wrong?" Lu Yan laughed and hugged her, "It's okay, it's okay, everyone comes here like this." What's so shameful about that. While saying it, I loved her shyness, and couldn't help but whisper in her ear, "I still know what posture is best....."
During the Qingming season, the drizzle was raining, and the entire Hezhong Mansion was put into spring ploughing. Standing outside the state city, it was in full swing, especially in the place where the military tiger tuntian belonging to Hedong Fort was in full swing.
A horse-drawn carriage, escorted by a dozen elite soldiers, passed by the main road. Attracted by the shouts from here, he stopped.
"What are they doing?" Liu Meibao lifted the curtain and asked.
"Mrs. Hui, it's an adult who is inspecting the fields." The soldier rode on his horse and said loudly, as a reserve cavalry seedling. They ate and drank much better than the average sergeant. He is strong and strong with enough meat, and his eyesight is also excellent, and he can clearly see the scene in the field not far away.
The word "adult" came out of his mouth, full of fanaticism and reverence.
Lu Yan was also there, Liu Meibao couldn't help squinting and looking over there, and sure enough, he saw the familiar figure among the scribes and generals.
At this time, he didn't know what to listen to the people around him, and was laughing, driven by him. There was laughter all around.
"I've been away from home for a few days, and it seems that he's doing well." Liu Meibao pursed her lips and smiled, and suddenly saw Lu Yan take off her robe. Walking towards the field with his hardcover upper body exposed, he couldn't help but be startled.
Although it didn't rain much. But this kind of season with a chill is not to be affected by the wind.
"Quietly ask, what to do, let those people prepare towels, put away the clothes they have taken off, don't get wet." She frowned, whispered to the little guy who was driving the car, and repeatedly told her not to make a public statement or shout.
Lu Yan has his own reasons for acting, and she, as a wife, must not disagree with him in front of others.
The little guy went and came back in a short time.
"Your Excellency will plough the fields yourself." He laughed.
He has never farmed, and plowing the field is not something that can be done with just one strength, Liu Meibao couldn't help but smile, looked over there, and saw that under the drive of Lu Yan, the generals undressed and went to the field, and even those scribes did not show weakness, and the scene was very hot for a while.
"Let's go back." Liu Meibao smiled, retracted his gaze, and lowered the car curtain.
The carriage passed silently along the road.
After a burst of sweat, everyone couldn't tell whether it was rain or sweat, and the handymen immediately handed everyone a hand towel, Lu Yan wiped it indiscriminately, took the clothes and put them on.
"My lord, please come and sit in the tent over here." An old man about fifty years old also had water on his head and a hoe in his hand, and said panting.
Lu Yan looked at the ditch he had dug out, and then looked at the one next to him.
"Strange people say that old people should be stronger, I can't compare to you." He laughed.
was praised in public by the integrity adult, and the old man's face was full of red light.
"The old man has been digging in the soil all his life, and he is not ashamed to say a word, and he is more familiar with this land than his mother-in-law." He said loudly.
This caused a burst of laughter, and the young men whistled strangely, and the women and daughters-in-law blushed.
"Let the adults rest, the villagers work harder, and let's open another piece." The old man greeted loudly.
The people in the fields should fly in unison with their hoes.
Lu Yan sat under the wooden shed, looking at the large wasteland in front of him that was about to be reclaimed into fertile land, and talking to the two scribes beside him.
"....According to the verification of the subordinate documents, there are 30,000 acres of military land in Hedong." A man about forty years old, with a thin build, bookish air, but his squinted eyes revealed a bit of leanness.
"30,000 mu, how much can I pay taxes?" Lu Yan asked.
"How much to accept, my subordinates don't dare to speak rashly." The man smiled slightly.
Lu Yan glanced at him, this is one of the new scribes recruited recently, surnamed Wang, named Mo, what is the word Lu Yan has not remembered, Fuzhou people's clan, the ancestors are also big families, and they have been admitted to the examination for fame and fame as a small official, but because of their young and flamboyant offended Shangguan, they were excluded and had to resign.
People like him originally didn't plan to settle down somewhere, but because of bad luck in the past year, he first encountered bandits three times, and then met Li Changsan's rebel army, lost all his money, and his life was almost lost.
Unexpectedly, when he saw this Hedongyi at a glance, he couldn't help but feel ready to move when he saw the silence of the world, so he was uncharacteristically low-key and showed his various talents. He was selected to be appointed to the position of a close scribe of the Lord of Integrity.
After the disaster relief, the master came to take leave, saying that he had an old cold leg attack and hoped to recuperate for a while, since he followed him. The master has indeed not rested, and for a person of his age, it is indeed unbearable. Lu Yan agreed with a hint of apology.
For these scribes, Lu Yan didn't worry too much about him. The only way to retain people is to make yourself strong. If you have power, you will follow you, and if you have no power, you will go....
That's what it says, right? It's been a long time since I've read a book, which isn't good, and it looks like he's going to have to take some time.....
Lu Yan was slightly distracted, Wang Mo stopped talking, looking at the field in front of him, and seemed to be distracted.
"I'm going to read this book, what did Mr. Wang say it's good to read?" He asked.
These words are completely different from what they just said.
"You can read anything. As long as you want to read it, all books are the same, and adults don't need to be rigid. Wang Mo said with a smile.
Lu Yan sighed. nodded, and was slightly distracted.
"I used to pay summer taxes last year. In a few months, less than 1,000 stone was collected. After a moment of silence, Lu Yan suddenly spoke again.
This is the same as the original words, but the interval is too long.
"It's already good." Wang Mo still smiled, and immediately picked up the words.
Their eyes were cast into the distance again, where a river could faintly be seen flowing through, where was the richest fertile land in Hedong Prefecture, there were civil fields and tuntian, but without exception all of them were occupied, there were literati and local tyrants in the people's fields, and there were generals at all levels in the tuntian.
"You don't pay taxes, you don't pay taxes.," Lu Yan muttered.
"Your Excellency." Wang Mo also muttered, his eyes flashing, "Cutting off people's financial routes, like killing parents..."
Lu Yan turned his head and glanced at the man, sure enough, the scholars are very smart, just this sentence, this Wang Mo knew what he had in mind, he nodded and smiled.
"You're right." He laughed.
Wang Mo also smiled.
"The laws of the imperial court cannot be violated, my lord." He said, looking at Lu Yan meaningfully.
These powerful squires used their respective status and power to avoid paying taxes through various methods such as preferential pensions from the imperial court, and it was a common practice from top to bottom.
"Eat, eat." Their conversation was interrupted by a woman's loud voice in the distance.
Lu Yan looked up at the sky and saw that the rain didn't know when it would stop, and it was already noon.
More than a dozen women carried large vats in twos and twos, and the aroma of food suddenly came to their nostrils.
Men, women, and children poured in, and the intensity of the work made them all hungry, but none of them were crowded, but quietly lined up.
"Mrs. said that everyone was happy, and specially added vegetables for everyone." Liu Niangzi said loudly, pointing to the three large basins beside her, and lifted the big lid as she spoke, revealing a large piece of meat and bones.
The scene was suddenly amazed and cheered.
When he first entered the military household of Hedongbao, he said that he was in charge of three meals a day in the wasteland, considering that the spring ploughing and hard work were strong, although the funds were tight, Lu Yan still gritted his teeth and let these people eat meat dishes every five days, one showed that he was generous, and the other was to avoid overdrawing the labor force and giving birth to tuberculosis.
Trying to get the horse to run but not to feed the horse doesn't work.
Today is not yet the day to add meat dishes, and it is a stewed big bone with a large piece of meat, and the audience cheered for a while, shouting Mrs. Xie's kindness, and Lord Xie's kindness.
"Mrs. is back?" Lu Yan called the soldiers on the side and asked.
"Yes." The soldiers responded.
Liu Meibao went back to Song Sanniang's house a few days ago, saying that she would come back in three or five days, Lu Yan was thinking about picking it up the day after tomorrow, but she didn't expect to come back today, she couldn't help but be surprised and happy, she didn't feel anything when she didn't hear about it, as soon as she heard that she was back, she couldn't wait to see her immediately.
"My lord, go back and see my wife." Wang Mo said with a smile on the side, "Mrs., this is another private money to subsidize the adult." ”
His words were very natural and casual, without the slightest hint that Lu Yan was afraid of the sticky woman.
Lu Yan laughed and left with a group of people.
When he returned to the inner house and walked into the house, Liu Meibao had just finished taking a bath and was lazily wiped by two girls on the big kang to wipe his hair.
Lu Yan came out with a change of homely clothes, and naturally took the towel in the maid's hand to wipe Liu Meibao's hair.
The servants and maids in the house skillfully put down their work and withdrew.
"Why did you come back so early?" Lu Yan asked.
"I miss you." Liu Meibao replied with a smile.
These words are simple, but they make people's hearts sweet, Lu Yan's eyes were full of smiles, and he lowered his head and kissed her heavily. (To be continued)
