Chapter 183: Digging a basket of ginseng

After Bai Panmei was sent to Huaishui Academy to study, the Bai family's status in Shenshu Village rose.

Under the popularization of science by the village chief, everyone learned that entering Huaishui Academy is equivalent to stepping into officialdom with one foot.

"The minimum is also a county order." The village chief said.

At this time, in addition to envy, the people in the village also had awe.

The people of Shenshu Village saw that the biggest official was the county order, and the official followed, catching and surrounding, very majestic.

And the village chief also said that the lowest, and the highest they didn't dare to think about.

Lao Bai's family is really developed, not only has a daughter who brings good luck, but also a son who is about to become an official.

Some people are envious, and some people pour cold water.

"The fourth child of the Bai family is just a child, not even a Xiucai, it's too early to be an official, his brother is still a Xiucai."

The village chief had an expression that you know something, and the old god was saying: "The fourth elder of the Bai family is different from his brother, he was said by Zhou Daru to be a Qilin talent. Qilin Caizi understands or not, then he will go to the Jinluan Palace to draft an edict to the emperor. ”

Good fellow, the village chief really dared to think.

When the county order was made, everyone still believed it, because they had seen Liu Hong, and the county order did not come out with one more leg than others.

But they haven't seen the person who drafted the edict to the emperor, and subconsciously felt that the person didn't have three heads and six arms, and he had to be fluttering like a fairy, and he felt that the village chief was bragging.

"It's good that we can issue a county order in our village, and I want to write an edict to the emperor, what do you want." There are people in the village who have different views than the village chief.

This was said by everyone gathered at the door of Xia's house opposite Lao Bai's house, because the door of Ah Zhen's house was cool, and Steward He was kind, and he also provided mung bean soup for the people passing by to cool off.

At this time, Steward He walked by, and someone asked, "Steward He, you are from the capital." The village chief said that the fourth child of the Bai family can draft an edict for the emperor in the future, do you think it is okay? ”

Steward He said with a smile: "No one can say for sure about this." The fourth child of the Bai family, showing his talent at such a young age, is really a little possible. ”

The village chief said: "Look at what I said, Steward He said so. ”

Someone in the village laughed and said: "If he really writes an edict to the emperor, I don't care about anything else, just encourage the emperor to exempt our spring grain tax." ”

Another person said: "I'm really not sour, the fourth child of the Bai family really drafted an edict to the emperor one day, and I don't envy it." It is said that a companion is like a tiger, and if you are not careful, you will cut off your head. I heard that our current emperor Lao'er even drove his own son out of Beijing, not to mention others. ”

Steward He didn't speak, shook his head lightly and walked in.

The people in the village continued to drink the mung bean soup provided by the Xia family, gossiping.

From the emperor's family affairs back to the old Bai family.

Because who let the old Bai family do things too coolly, after Bai Panmei entered Huaishui Academy, Bai Zhaomei's uncle and nephew packed up and sent them to the private school in the town to study.

Reading is a big deal in the countryside.

There are few students in the whole village, and the Lao Bai family basically contracts the students of Shenshu Village.

"Your old Bai family is letting your own children be officials."

Bai Wooden Board came back from the field with a hoe and a basket, holding Xiao Fuyuan in his hand, and someone saw it and asked loudly.

"Where, where, just let the children know a little bit of two words, and they shouldn't be blind." Bai Muban said modestly.

Bai Muban has been happy since he came back from Huaicheng after sending the fourth child.

He took the fourth child to meet Zhou Daru, and Zhou Daru promised to personally guide Bai Panmei.

Being able to enter Huaishui Academy is already smoking from the ancestral tomb. can be personally instructed by Zhou Daru The green smoke on the ancestral grave is thicker than his waist.

Bai Muban felt that the whole person was full of energy, and he walked and worked with the wind.

"What you said was a little bit of literacy and let your family teach Erzhuang, is it worth going to a private school?"

"It's not like I'm afraid that the fifth and their uncles and nephews will be sent to a private school to learn the truth. I don't dare to think about being an official. The white plank waved his hand.

The people in the village thought to themselves, you just pretend to be you!

I am indeed more and more envious in my heart, it can be seen that the old Bai family is now very rich and can provide a string of children to study.

How much money does it cost to provide for a student, can they not want to send their children to school?

Think, the key is that you can't afford it!

"Xiao Yuanbao, you followed your father to the field, and what good things did you find?" The village chief asked Xiao Fuyuan with a smile.

"Uncle the village chief, there is nothing good, just dig a few turnips." Xiao Fuyuan said honestly.

A few radish tassels were exposed in the white wooden basket, and the village chief said with a smile: "Lao Bai, you really love your daughter, this season the radish is only the thickness of your thumb and you will pull it out." ”

Bai Muban's heart was weak for a while, and he nodded and said, "If the girl likes it, just pull it out." ”

After speaking, he pulled Xiao Fuyuan into the house.

"Quick, quick, big strong girl, come and see in this basket." Bai Wooden Board entered the upper room and shouted in a low voice.

Old lady Bai came out of the kitchen, saw the uncontrollable surprise on the white wooden board, and instructed Qiu Niang: "Qiu Niang, go and close the door, use a wooden stick on the top, don't let people in." ”

Qiu Niang went to stand up to the door.

"What?"

In the room, everyone in the Bai family looked at the Zhen family with burning eyes.

"Damn, is this really ginseng?" The sound of the white planks trembled.

"Yes." Zhen took a "radish" and said very firmly.

"Uncle, Auntie is right, this is indeed ginseng." Qiu Niang had seen ginseng, and couldn't help but interject, she then understood why the old lady Bai let her hold the door to death.

With so much ginseng, you can't expose it at will.

Old Lady Bai and the others were beating like drums, where could they get so much ginseng in this big basket.

Everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Fuyuan.

"Where did these come from?"

"Oh yes." Xiao Fuyuan's eyes were shining.

Huh?

Why can't anyone else?

"The girl is right, it's true."

Bai Muban said in a trembling voice, he went to work in the field in the evening, and Xiao Fuyuan followed him. Passing by the foot of the mountain, I found a bush of wild carrots, and the white plank wanted to dig it home to add a dish.

Xiao Fuyuan dug together, and he found that Xiao Fuyuan was digging differently from him, he was indeed digging carrots, and Xiao Fuyuan was digging different from radishes.

Surprised and delighted, he stuffed Xiao Fuyuan under the carrots he had dug up, and then carried them all the way home.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law is really ...... It's really amazing, and it's ginseng when you pull it out. Xie Chuntao faced a basket of ginseng, folded his hands, and said tremblingly.

"Dad, when you came here just now, you weren't discovered." Bai Dazhuang stabilized his mind and asked.

"Nope. I was outside, and the village chief greeted me, and I hurried in. Bai Muban said.

The old lady Bai trembled her hands and touched her beard.

It's no wonder that everyone is excited, except for Zhen, no one in the Lao Bai family has ever seen real ginseng.

"This root is a century-old ginseng." Zhen picked up the top one calmly and said.

When the Bai family heard this, they almost fainted from surprise, this is okay, just take one is a century-old ginseng?

"Mother, how do you know?" Eugene Gui asked tremblingly, she was about to be stunned by surprise, sister-in-law is amazing, how much does this shot have to sell?

"I saw it when I was a kid." Zhen said lightly.

Everyone didn't think about Zhen's words, because everyone's attention was on that basket of ginseng.
