Chapter 144: It's Winter, It's a Little Cold

In the lingering rain of late autumn, the winter of 655 AD ushered in the slightest mist. I am Yonghui at the end of the fourth year of the magic to come to this dynasty, now it is the sixth year of Yonghui, very interesting, a year and a half did not arrive, I experienced the three calendars of Yonghui. opened the cheat, and used the knowledge that should not appear in this dynasty to gradually change the fate of himself and the people around him, from a down-and-out nobleman to a rich nobleman, from a baron to an earl, from a small landlord to a middle landlord, and also has two well-known enterprises in the light and dark, maybe three, the egg workshop is still in preparation, only in the aristocratic circle has a reputation, and the people are still unfamiliar with the egg.

Variation. Except for me, who was still free and loose, the people around me had changed to a greater or lesser extent, including the tenant farmers on my farm, who at least did not worry about the winter. The papermaking workshop and the flower water workshop have absorbed a large number of labor in the agricultural slack, and the farmer's bleak and idle winter has also been rejuvenated, coupled with a series of migration and expansion projects, even the idle labor of the outer village can also use force to exchange some living money in this season of no harvest, and the cauldron of boiling bones is steaming from morning to night.

Exploitation, exploitation of Chiguoguo. I stood on the small slope and looked at the energetic people on the construction site, the scene in full swing, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, two meals a day and eight salaries, can have such a great temptation, like me, an unscrupulous contractor has long been paralyzed by people in the 21st century.

"Little Hou Ye, this is looking for helpers, it's just a good deed!" The money steward rubbed his hands pitifully, he always had objections to my salary, thinking that four cents a day was enough, and eight cents was a waste, and he also instilled a bad sense in the laborers. In the future, who will find helpers. If one person doesn't pay enough money a day, he won't be able to start work. "Our family should be sympathetic to the villagers, but most of the people here are not from our village, they are here to eat and drink change, what a loss."

"If you lose something, you will lose it, and it will be completed in half a month, and if it gets cold, there is no way to relocate." I want to be magnanimous, and the values of the 21st century cannot be reflected in this dynasty. Do as the Romans do. "Starting tomorrow, the amount of work will be increased, and the wage will rise to ten yuan, so that they will all take out the strength of milk, and if it is completed before the sixteenth of this month, each person will be given a bonus of twenty yuan."

"Ahh Steward Qian's old face trembled a few times, and he was reluctant, "This ......." You see, the sixteenth was completed before, and if you reward it, you won't spend a lot of money in vain. Otherwise, the processing money will be exempted, and the reward for completion before the thirteenth will be ten to the past. ”

"Okay." I smiled and looked at the money housekeeper, the old man is a fine person, he knows how to save money if he has a good face, and he is much higher than the level of a fat person like me. "Uncle Qian will do it as you say. Also, what did you do when you came back with so many millet (millet) yesterday? The granaries are full, and it means to eat a few bites of that thing, and it tastes bad if you eat it often. "Yesterday, the family changed the millet from the Gou family's Zhuangzi in the south for a half-warehouse, and Ying deliberately boiled a large pot of red dates and millet porridge in the evening. I'm a little puzzled when I see it.

"Cheap guys, this year can have a good year. Speaking of millet seeds, how can you always be told to eat that thing and keep it for the New Year. The steward pointed to the open space behind the bridge, "When this side is completed, let the laborers hurry up to build the livestock shed, which is much easier than building a house for the farmer, and it will be completed in a month at most." Since our family feeds by ourselves, the dry hay is added to boiled millet in winter to allow the livestock to survive the winter. The cattle are tired for a year, and they can't be disadvantaged. As soon as spring begins, it's good to work hard. ”

"Oh, but the millet stuff makes up for it. People also often eat some, and in winter, the two wives promise to have a porridge of millet and red dates every day. "I understand the reason, but I don't like to drink porridge very much, especially things like eight-treasure porridge, I feel sick to my stomach when I see it, and I'd rather make a bowl of mutton soup to be refreshing." I forget it, I'm not used to eating. In the future, when buying things from the bankers, try to give them cash as much as possible, and the same is true on the construction site. ”

The farmers have little money on their hands. No kidding, many farmers can't even find a penny in their homes. At first, I didn't believe it, but I saw that the farmer who paid the eggs knew that it was true. The fourth child set up a shed next to the flower water workshop, and sent someone to buy the eggs of the village villagers, when the copper plate was handed to them, only a few people were willing to accept it, and most people were used to changing some food or linen cloth to leave, and they didn't care how much the copper plate was given. The laborers on the construction site are the same, when they go to work, they all take a basket over, and when they get off work, they all fold their wages into grain and take them away. Typical self-sufficient commodity consciousness, folk Yishi tradition, not much interest in money.

Whether it's good or bad, I don't know the bottom of my heart. Although Yishi can maintain the simplicity of the bankers, it is a primitive and backward practice after all. But then again, the copper coins of the Tang Dynasty were far from enough, and the copper was so scarce in this era that even the emperor wanted to change the concept on the copper coins and silver cakes, and the people could imagine it.

"Hehe," Steward Qian was also a little embarrassed, "they are all used to it, after all, they have not fought famine in recent years, and they are all hungry and afraid." Don't say that they can eat two dry meals a day, like those in our house who can even get up early to nibble on the pot helmet, and they can't find a second one in Chang'an City. ”

It's not a good habit to get up early to gnaw on the pot helmet, and the housekeeper is just boasting. I have an identity to eat three meals a day, I am kind-hearted, and I can't bear to eat by others to watch, so I also change the food of the next people to three meals. It doesn't matter if you change it, everyone in the world knows that the people of the Wang family eat well, and it changes the taste when it is passed around, and it has become a joke that everyone has a pot and helmet to gnaw on in the morning.

"The scorpion tiger that is passed on, gnawing on the pot helmet, is a shame that they can come up with it. Nibble on that early in the morning, haha. "Pulled the shirt, it had only rained outside, the water vapor was strong, and the wind blew over to seep cold, "The wasteland behind is occupied by the paper workshop, and the Zhuangzi in front is not much of a large territory, and the Zhuangzi is squeezed in the back, and even the place where the pins are plugged can not be found." "When I came to the land last year, Zhuangzi was still desolate, and now it is full of plans, with paper mills, flower water factories, a large number of newly built residential areas, and livestock sheds under construction. Egg workshop, chicken feed...... Zhuangzi has lost the feeling of spaciousness, the population has also increased a lot, plus the order and pull merchants who come and go, the prosperity is prosperous, but there is no charm of the pastoral farm, a little regrettable when you go out is not a house or a person.

"Not really. The old man also gnawed for a few days, he couldn't stand it, and he didn't have that good appetite. The housekeeper patted his belly and smiled: "Speaking of our Zhuangzi, it is changeable." The old man often stood alone on this slope and shed tears when he was happy, and in less than two years, he had finished his decades of work. The houses are piece-by-piece, and no one has such a big hand, it's all the credit of the little marquis. ”

"Credit? Do you still have credit? Lanling touched his flat belly and looked angry. It's been almost three months, and there hasn't been any movement, so I'll go to the villa when I'm done. At this, he blushed and bit his lip. Said shyly: "Don't think I can let you go." ”

"Shall you be a beast? Say there is? "I was squeezed by Ying yesterday, and Lanling came over early in the morning to mention this again, "Why three months, still learning arithmetic." Break your toes and calculate together, have you seen it for two months? "In this era, if I don't have a descendant at my age, it is useless to let you earn a house full of gold and silver, and I am embarrassed to say hello when I go out. Especially Ying, the temples and Taoist fortune-telling stalls in Chang'an asked her to go around, and there was no reaction at all, if I hadn't stopped her. The plan to demolish the temple is all there. "It's annoying enough to have someone urging people at home, what are you jumping out of? Where did you just go? How did you get involved in this? ”

Lan Ling shook his head and smiled, and suddenly said, "Speaking of the Liu family." If you have a relationship with the Liu family, you can break it off, I'm afraid that his family won't be able to pass this pass, don't be implicated. No matter how much I say, I can't say it, you're a smart person, just click on it. Know what to do next. ”

"The Liu family?" The Liu family is the mother's uncle's family of Queen Wang. Zhongshu Ling Liu Zheng is the maternal uncle of Queen Wang and belongs to the powerful relatives. I don't have much friendship in private, and I can't get up to the relationship on the face, but I have met a few sons of his family and played officially. "Don't worry, what kind of power do people, how can we, the flat-headed people, cling to the ground? You've looked up to me, too. ”

The fall of the Liu family must have been caused by something that happened to Queen Wang. Could it be that Wu MM did it? Lan Ling rarely mentioned the affairs in the palace when she chatted with me, that is, she did not mention a sentence, but it could be faintly seen from her tone and expression that she did not have much affection for the current queen. Just from the fact that the words about the fall of the Liu family can be pulled into the pregnancy matter, you can see her position, which belongs to the schadenfreude faction.

Actually, when it comes to the Liu family and Queen Wang, I still have a little sympathy. Queen Wang was born in a famous family, and her grandmother was the younger sister of Tang Gaozu. When Li Zhi was crowned the king of Jin, Na Wang was the princess of Jin. Even if you don't look at your background, you are in the same boat with Li Zhi, so you will be ruthless. Maybe the qualifications are too mediocre and unpopular, who knows, at least even a strong princess like Lanling hasn't won over well, which is a bit unreasonable. Although the Liu family is a powerful family, it is still popular, the local reputation is good, and I have never heard of such a thing as bullying, which is much better than the Cheng family's reputation.

Under the nest, how can there be eggs, the two relatives of the Wang family and the Liu family breathe out of one nostril, and now they start to do it above, and no one can run away. I've been here for so long, and I still have this little bit of eyes, and it's best for me to hide far away. There is also the eldest grandson's family, I almost forgot, the Wang and Liu families are trivial matters, the cancer of the eldest grandson's family is not operated on, and the Li family is not even able to sleep.

Li Zhi couldn't bear his uncle anymore, although his coming to power was the result of the eldest grandson's unscrupulous support, but it was the eldest grandson's fault to rely on the old and sell the old. Not to mention Li Zhi, the eldest grandson's family fell, at least half of the big households in Chang'an applauded, the power was too great, too oppressive, and too unexpected. The last time I went out with Cheng Chu and a few of them, I was rolled by the two hairy boys of the eldest grandson's family, not for everyone, Cheng Chu may not want to provoke something wrong, this time he was indirectly angry.

"What do you want," I sat down beside Lan Ling, "You have too many things to worry about in a day, don't think that you have no fear if you have an identity, maybe you will not realize that you are in the way of others and are hated, and you will be complained about in vain." Sometimes, it's not a bad thing to learn from me. ”

"Listen to Lang Jun." Lan Ling turned his face and leaned over with a soft face, "Once this matter is over, it will be difficult to say anything, with Lang Jun here, the concubine will be able to do her own learning." Over the needle and thread. raised his face, turned crimson, and said softly and shyly: "If you are still not at ease, isn't the concubine's belly still empty?" After adding a child, there is no longer any thought of being in the limelight. Women, how can you be willing not to go through this? ”

Lanling is the best-looking, without the pampering of the past, the little woman's demeanor is fascinating. "This matter is not in a hurry, there is it, and if there is none, it cannot be forced. You can't say that you go out and play tricks without children, it's hard to mess with right and wrong, you're too smart, if you're stupid, I'll like it more. ”

"I understand, I understand this very well." Lan Ling smiled and pulled his soft chair over to join me, and lay down next to me. "There is no room for smart people in this world, don't worry about me, my ability to pretend to be confused is no worse than yours. In front of you, he is a petty character, and he wants to compete with you, except for arithmetic. Few people say that I am smart, but there are many people who say that I am indecent. ”

"That's good, hehe." I glanced at Lanling and said with a smile: "Man." I told you the fable of not being able to eat grapes and shouting sour, and that's the truth. I know you, or I would have gone with them to spread rumors outside. Hey. ”

"Men, those who have the ability to have a bad heart, and those who have a good heart have no ability." Lan Ling turned to face me and flickered his eyelids, "If I had met someone who was capable and honest earlier, it would have been cheaper than you." Spread rumors. If you say too much, it will come true, but now it will not become true? ”

"That's because I'm capable and kind, and others can't take their turn." I proudly scratched Lanling's nose, and saw that she reacted violently, softened in the chair, and laughed evilly. "From tomorrow onwards, your homework will be stopped. Be honest as a woman. Leave the matter of showing up to the husband. ”

"At first, you are a capable person, but in fact, ......" Lan Ling stroked his heaving chest. Coquettish smiled: "Actually, it's me who lost my eyes." You haven't left any of the bad things about men, you are treacherous, slanderous and lazy. As for being kind-hearted, just looking kind, is it easy to coax everyone else? As for me, I was deceived first, and then I was deceived by others, so I just accepted my fate, what kind of smugness do I have? ”

"Cut," the mouth is hard, who is still crying and clamoring to have a child? "I haven't shouted injustice yet, you're like Dou E. It's not necessarily who takes advantage of whom, my body is weak these days, and it's all the sequelae of the villa's return. ”

"Who is Dou Goose?" Lan Ling's face was a little strange, he squinted at me with a sly smile, and a wave of evil rushed over, "I was married to the surname Dou Di, and I am still the widow of the Dou family, do you think it is interesting to arrange people like this?" ”

"Ahh It's messy, Lanling doesn't love me the most now to mention the Dou family, she thought I said cool words, "No, you can't be sensitive." This Dou E, it is a small story in a place during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it is told by a person surnamed Dou ...... "This story was transferred by me to an unknown small country in the Spring and Autumn Period and re-happened, and she avenged Dou E two thousand years in advance, she may want to thank me, right?"

"The first time I heard it, it must be a story that you made up improvised by lying." Lanling listened to it with taste, sighed for a long time, and said with a smile: "Forget it, I don't care about you, but this goose, I have to change my surname, and my surname is Wang." ”

"Can you still laugh at such a bleak story?" Lanling's views on these wrongful and unjust cases are different from ordinary people, and his nerves are resolute. I once told this story to Ying, and Ying couldn't stand it a little after hearing about the killing, and she was in tears. Disdainful: "No sympathy. ”

"Well, or there is. Wrong, false and unjust cases have existed since ancient times, and there are many people who have died with grievances. This sinus ...... Wang's daughter is considered to be fateful, her father was an official, and he came back to avenge her......" Lanling pondered for a while, looked at me with an angry face, and said with a smile: "This is too fake, right?" During the Spring and Autumn Period, there were people who entered Beijing to take the exam? That Dou E's father was a poor student, and even his daughter gave money to others, and he was helpless in Beijing, so he could serve as such a big official and return to his hometown in three years? Besides, even the unjust case didn't say that the court officials said that they would kill them, right? Speaking out, be careful of being accused of slandering the court. Almost cheated by you. "Then he pounced on me and threw it all over me.

It's not good to be with Lanling, she knows it's a folk tale and still has to find a bug, and I can't argue with it, she thinks it's the same as Li Tang. Guan Hanqing, you are more wronged than Dou E. "What about storytelling, as for it? The strength of the hand is so big, and it hurts to pinch people. "When Lanling is coquettish, I have to have an embankment, in case the coquettish rises, and the muscles and bones are used and the like, I and Dalai will end up together. finally subdued Lan Ling, held her in his arms, and gasped: "Don't make trouble, listen to me." Today you will go back and clean up, and tomorrow morning we will go to the mountain villa to live for a while. Some things, it's better to avoid them, watch them from a distance, and it's safe and lively. ”

"Okay," Lan Ling nodded obediently, "The concubine will go back and prepare."

In October, with the cold wind of early winter, Chang'an City was involved in a well-known political struggle in history, and the fall of the Liu family and the Wang family made the people of the capital panic and danger everywhere.
