Chapter 573: The Ballad

When the convoy entered Xiping, it was already ten years later, and the climate here was warmer than Luoyang, because the sowing was in full swing last winter, and the fields on both sides of the road were full of wheat held high.

From the moment he entered Yuzhou, Zhao Yi was shocked by the vitality here, which was too different from the scene in Luoyang.

The people walking on the road were full of smiles on their faces, the kind of smile with satisfaction and happiness, Zhao Yi hadn't seen it for many years.

In my memory, I only occasionally saw it from some people's faces when I was a child.

But now, the vast majority of people in Yuzhou are like this, and from them, he feels as vigorous as spring.

There was still much barren land on both sides, but there was also much ploughing, and there were many wheat, millet, sorghum, and beans that he recognized, and many that he could not name.

And when I entered Xiping, the shock became a shock.

As far as the eye can see, most of the fields are green, with wheat, millet, beans and sorghum growing high and low.

At this time, there were also people standing in the field, who were holding wooden barrels to pick up fertilizer and sprinkle fertilizer, and when they saw an army passing by, they were not as panicked and frightened as the people of Luoyang, but turned their heads to look at it, and when they saw the flags in their ranks, they smiled.

There were also half-grown children rushing from the fields to the side of the road, running barefoot on the grass and following their convoy, singing a ballad in their mouths, "Liangzhou horses, rampant in the world." Liangzhou is a wolf, and the thieves are eliminated. Dancing and terrifying. ”

Zhao Yizheng was curious, and listened to the children singing with a smile: "Xiping Iron Riding is rampant all over the world." Xiping Weifeng, Kou thief elimination. Mighty and glorious, terrifying murder! ”

Zhao Yi's face changed slightly, and he couldn't help but look at Geng Rong, "This is the third sister?" ”

Geng Rong nodded, "It's the girl and the Xiping Zhao family." ”

"Directly compare the third sister to a phoenix, if it spreads, won't it cause criticism?"

Geng Rong said indifferently: "This is a folk child singing and playing, who will take it seriously?" What's more, even if it spreads, who do we girls need to be afraid of now? ”

Xiping is the safest place, since Zhao Song and Zhao let this nursery rhyme circulate in Xiping, it means that the benefits of this matter outweigh the disadvantages.

Where do they need to worry about this kind of thing?

Zhao Yi was speechless.

The children gathered around the convoy and sang all the way back to Xiping City, and when they got close to the county seat, they saw that they did not go to the county seat, but were going to turn around and go to Zhao's Wu Fort, and the bold children asked loudly: "Are you the Zhao family?" ”

Zhao Yi rode on the horse and looked condescendingly at the children who followed them and did not want to disperse, and nodded, "Yes." ”

The children wowed, became excited, and asked in a chattering voice, "Is Gongzi also surnamed Zhao?" ”

After receiving an affirmative answer, he asked, "That son is following the girl?" ”

"Childe, do you need an entourage, I can be your entourage."

"I can too, I don't want money."

"I don't want it either, as long as I can see the girl later."

The girl has almost become synonymous with Zhao Hanzhang in Xiping.

Geng Rong saw that the more they talked, the more excited they became, and they were about to pull the carriage, so he hurriedly waved his hand to drive them away, "Go and go, go back to the school to study, what to do, if you want to see the girl, learn your skills hard, and when the girl returns to Xiping, she will be able to see her." ”

"We are stupid, it is difficult to read, we really can't read, but it is possible to be an entourage."

In this world, there are smart people and stupid people, and the words of this era are too difficult to read, and ordinary smart people need to learn very hard.

For those who are not smart, it is difficult for them to learn, so the school will suggest that they only learn some conventional words, and then focus on learning the craft.

For example, farming.

Yes, farming is also a craft, so the parents of the children take their children home during the lesson, whip them to study in their own fields, and they can answer all the questions.

Unlike in the past, when they followed their elders to farm, until they reached adulthood and the elders left to slowly grasp the essence of farming, now children around the age of ten in Xiping can memorize the 24 solar terms, and recite what needs to be done in farming.

There are a lot of things that even their parents don't know, but they can be regarded as having gained knowledge.

The topic was pulled back, and the children who were rejected by Geng Rong stopped, and could only jump vigorously in place and wave to Zhao Yi, "Childe, if you want to follow, you must remember to choose me, I am very cheap, and I have learned a lot of things." ”

Geng Rong and Zhao Yi said: "Yi Gongzi, don't go to your heart, you want to choose an entourage, you can go to the academy to choose, but you have to prepare more money." ”

"Why?"

"Because if you want to ask for people from the school, you have to settle all the expenses they have spent all these years," Geng Rong said: "This is the new rule issued by the girl last year, just to let the students in the school have more and better outlets, and the people who come out of the school must not sign a death deed as a slave, but can only sign a living deed of employment." ”

Although Geng Rong and Zhao Yi did not intersect after arriving in Luoyang, he vaguely heard some rumors, not to mention that he was from Xiping, his father was the chief bookkeeper of Xiping County, and he had also heard some of the battles between the two rooms of the Zhao family.

He was afraid that Zhao Yi would cause trouble and make trouble for the girl at that time, so he advised: "In Yuzhou, the girl's order is the law, and within this range, everyone must obey the girl's order, even the fifth and seventh masters in the dock fort are no exception." ”

Zhao Yi's back stiffened, he knew that Zhao Hanzhang was not what it used to be, but he didn't know that her influence in Yuzhou was so great.

Even the fifth uncle and ancestor have to obey her, no wonder the grandfather will retreat again and again, and even never mention the succession of the patriarch.

Zhao Yi was still thinking about it, and the group of them entered the dock fort.

Zhao Yi looked at the bustling dock fort and was in a trance for a while.

How long has it been since he's seen such a bustling scene?

The road in the fort is not very wide and can only accommodate three horse-drawn carriages alongside, so there are only two lanes on the road, and the rest of the road is for horses and pedestrians to pass.

Different from Luoyang, which is separated from Fang City, here, the front is a shop, and the back is a residence, Zhao Yi has returned to Wubao three times, in his memory, although the front of the house can be used as a shop, but there are not many people who really use it.

Most of the people in the dock fort still make a living from farming.

But now, the front doors on both sides of the road are open, and there is a wide variety of goods inside, and there are many customers who buy things.

Riding by, he could still hear the people inside haggling loudly, and some of them had accents that were not from Yuzhou.

Geng Rong sent them to the old mansion and left.

When Zhao Changyu was there, they didn't separate this room, and they kept calling the big house and the second room, but in fact, their old house was not separated.
