Chapter 149: The First Experience of Farm Work
The one who came to greet Jun Niannu was Su Xiaoxiao's personal maid Yue'er, and now in the palace, Yue'er is also an aunt-level maid.
Yue'er came to the front of the house, grabbed Jun Niannu and invited her into the house, and did not forget to say sweetly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Sister Jun wants to kill me, and my young lady often talks about you." ”
"Sister Yue'er is really unreasonable, how far is it from Jinling to Yangzhou, why don't I see you come to play. I heard that you have been running in Luoyang and Chang'an in the past few years, and I envy people. "The one who answered was Jun Niannu's maid Silver Bell.
Yue'er said angrily: "No, I'm also working blindly with the prince and the young lady." ”
"I really can't think about it, when I first met Gao Gongzi, he was still a doll, and he had to follow Miss Su to mess around, I haven't seen him for a few years, and he is already the second person in Datang, which is unattainable." Yinling said enviously.
"Who said it wasn't, at that time, the two of us were always arguing, and the young one was a mouthful, and I was worried that he was plotting against Miss." Yue'er smiled.
"Sister! - Su Xiaoxiao came briskly and saw Jun Niannu calling from afar.
When Jun Niannu saw Su Xiaoxiao, she also took two steps, and the two sisters hugged each other and told each other about their lovesickness.
Gu Ci came out of the academy and took his entourage to find Gao Buer on the outskirts of the city, Gao Buer was squatting on the ground with Gongyi Shiyue and the two of them dressed in coarse cloth to watch the farmer work.
The farmer saw the two young men staring at his ploughing for a while, and asked while he was resting: "Whose children are the two little men, now is the time for farming, why don't you go home to help, what is there to waste here, what is there for the old man to see?" ”
Gao Buer saluted the old man and said with a smile: "Excuse me, uncle, we are worried about a new farm tool, because we don't know the trick, so we want to take a walk in the field." ”
"It turned out that they were still two scholars, and the old man didn't see it, he couldn't see this, if he got started, he would be clear about what he would be after working for half a day."
"The kid thinks so too, but I just don't know if this benevolent brother next to him can do it." Gao Fuji smiled evilly at the female companion and the male loss Shiyue.
Gong Shi Yue snorted lightly, walked to the ground and grabbed the reins of the more bull, and let the queen stare at Gao Buer.
"Why are you staring at me?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to get started, come and help the plow."
After asking the old man's consent, Gao Fuji came up to help the plow. Who knew that watching the old man plough the land easily on the side, but it was awkward to get started by himself.
The docile old scalper just now, walking for a while and stopping for a while, how to pull it for Ren Gong Shiyue is not good to do, gnawing two mouthfuls of geographical grass for a while, and standing and peeing for a while, his tired face is slightly red, and he is panting.
Gao Buer is not much better, he thinks that as long as the old cow goes, the plow will go, who knows that the plow will be crooked for a while, or it will be deep and shallow, if it is shallow, the old cow will run fast, and if it is deep, the old cow will not go.
I was busy for a while, and even a third of the land had not been completed, and the place where I had ploughed was also a deep pit and a shallow kiln. The old man resting on the ground stroked his beard and smiled. This scene happened to be seen by Gu Ci, who rushed over, and he was also happy.
Gao Buer handed over the plough to the old man's son, and the reins in the hands of Gong Shiyue were also handed over to the old man, and the old man smiled: "Don't look at the old man's ease, Xiao Langjun must learn to support the plow, it will not be possible without two spring and autumn, this plow can not be too deep or too shallow, the old cow can't pull it when it is deep, and it is not conducive to the crops taking root if it is shallow." ”
Gao Buer nodded again and again to indicate that he was taught, although it came from later generations, but he had never seen the ox pulling the plow, it was the scene of the tractor pulling the plow running all over the ground, he had also seen it in the car on the side of the road, and he had never used it, so when Gong Shi Yue asked him how big the plow of the steam engine was, he was speechless.
Seeing that Gong Yi Shiyue was still hunched over and panting, Gao Buer walked up to her and gently rubbed her back.
"Uncle, according to your experience, how deep does this land have to be ploughed to be conducive to the growth of crops?"
The plough and the ox became very docile again in the hands of the old man and his son, and turned the ground up in harmony. The old man was busy and said: "According to the old man's experience, twenty centimeters is the best, but now this old cow is old, and his physical strength can't keep up, so he can't only plow shallowly, otherwise I'm afraid that this old cow won't be able to last a busy season."
Gao Fuji thanked him: "The kid has been taught." ”
"I wonder what new farming tools the two little brothers are working on?"
"A kind of work that can be done without being pulled by oxen."
"Really, that's great, the old man really wants to see it." The old man said this, but in his heart he thought, "It would be great to have this kind of farm tool." ”
Gao Buer saw that the old man didn't believe it, and he didn't explain too much, so he asked Gongyi Shiyue: "You still can't try?" ”
Gong Yi Shiyue shook her head and asked Gao Buer to help her sit down, Gao Buer asked Gu Ci curiously: "How can Gu Da be busy, come to this field, it won't be a coincidence." ”
"How can the lower official have your leisure and elegance, the lower official has made a special trip to ask you about the driving matter."
"Didn't the holy decree say that everything should be simple, and you can arrange a few tables of good meals."
"If you do this, you will definitely be fine, the head of the lower official is estimated to be cut off in the evening."
Gao Buer is right to think about it, this is the ancient world of all evils, the emperor is the sky, dare to do this, Gao Buer definitely does not doubt the possibility of Gu Ci said.
