The sound of roosters crowing one after another resounded throughout the ramie village.

In the distance, the sky was white, and the whole village gradually woke up from the darkness.

Li Yunze opened his eyes, and there was already movement outside the house.

The Zheng family has already gotten up, the head of the Zheng family took Zheng Chai out to work, and Zheng's mother was cleaning up the housework.

To Li Yunze's surprise, Zheng Dan was practicing swords in the courtyard.

With his excellent hearing, Li Yunze could even clearly hear the sound of Zheng Dan breaking the air when he stabbed out one sword after another.

Sure enough, no one can succeed casually, unless he's a hanger.

But you have to work hard.

got up and dressed neatly, came to the corner of the wall and kicked up the sleeping public loser class, "It's dawn." ”

There is a saying in "Words": 'My day and three provinces, my body'.

Li Yunze's explanation is that as a Confucian disciple, he has to exercise his body three times a day.

It is especially important to get up early and practice first.

Naturally, waking up in the morning is not to practice guns, but to exercise.

When the master and apprentice came to the courtyard, they saw Zheng Dan, who had beads of sweat on his pretty face, gritting his silver teeth and practicing sword after sword.

Li Yunze didn't bother, and stood aside with the public loss class to watch silently.

After a long time, the sun rose, and Zheng Dan put away his sword with a slight trembling arm.

"Two swords left."

Li Yunze, who had been standing next to him, suddenly said something.

Wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, Zheng Dan turned his head suspiciously, "What?" ”

"Aren't you going to stab a thousand swords? Now it's only ninety-nine-eight. ”

Li Yunze's reply, Zheng Dan laughed, "I practice every day, how can I remember wrong." ”

Shaking his head, Li Yunze didn't speak again.

He couldn't have misheard, but there were indeed two thorns missing.

didn't say anything more, turned around and urged the public losing class to start exercising.

Zheng Dan, who returned to the room to wash up, came out again lightly.

Then he looked at the gym with curiosity, "What is this for?" ”

"Exercise." Li Yunze responded, "No matter what you do, a strong body is the best foundation. Good health, everything is fine. ”

In later generations, those waste Confucian students who could not carry it on their shoulders and could not carry it in their hands were not worthy of being called Confucian disciples.

Without waiting for Zheng Dan to speak, Li Yunze said to her, "Your way of practicing swords, when you were young, you did make rapid progress, but it brought a great load to your body. When the physical fitness declines, all kinds of problems will continue to appear. ”

Zheng Dan looked at him stunned, "Huh? ”

Zheng Dan, who has never left Ramie Village a hundred miles away in his life, understands this.

"I have a massage technique that can soothe the burden on the body." Li Yunze said with a solemn expression, "With acupuncture and medicine, it can effectively soothe the dark wounds in your body, do you want to try it?" ”

Zheng Dan'(°ー°〃)'

We don't seem to know this gentleman well.

After a moment of silence, Zheng Dan suddenly asked, "Sir, isn't it fancy Zhongdan?" Want to take me away? ”

The women of this era, especially the young and beautiful women, from the princess Wang Ji to the village aunts, are regarded as commodities to put it bluntly.

Princess Wang Ji used it for marriage, like the princess of Qin many years ago, who was supposed to marry the prince of Chu, but was cut off by King Chuping, which caused Wu Zixu to flee and fight back, causing a lot of turmoil.

Through Li Yunze's words, the world only thinks that Wu Zixu's revenge is really a big husband, but who has ever sympathized with the princess of Qin who was cut off by her father-in-law?

Even Qin Guo himself doesn't care!

They only cared about joining forces with the State of Chu to fight against the pressure brought by the State of Jin, and it didn't matter whether the princess was married to the crown prince or her father-in-law.

The princesses are like this, and the status of the women of the common people's family is naturally even more unbearable.

Here in Ramie Village, in previous years, there were also caravans passing by, and some outstanding teenagers and girls would be selected from the village to take away and sent to the homes of the powerful and rich in various places.

Last year, Zheng Dan was once taken by a caravan, but fortunately, she couldn't obey with a sword, so she had to give up.

As for why the family is willing to hand over the young girls to the caravan, it is because the people pay for it, and the price is rich, and the more beautiful the better.

And everyone knows that they will be sent to the powerful and wealthy families, and from then on, not only will they be able to eat and clothe, but they will also have the opportunity to get ahead and fly on the branches to be phoenixes, which is naturally an instant hit.

Many people want to go, but because of their poor appearance and shape, they are looked down upon by the caravan.

Zheng Dan knows very well that with his beauty and posture, he escaped last year and this year, but what about next year and what about the future?

Her parents, after all, will send her away and call for the goods of their brother's marriage.

Well, if nothing else, it should be to marry Dong Shi.

Zheng Dan didn't want to be sent into the home of a powerful and rich family, so he was kept in captivity and became a plaything.

Maybe she could eat and drink, maybe she could wear beautiful clothes, but that wasn't the life she wanted.

But she is a little woman, even if her swordsmanship is excellent, how can she get rid of this almost doomed fate.

Until this moment.

was lying on the ground doing push-ups, and when he heard this, his hands shook and he threw himself directly on the ground.

Are the women of Yuedi so unrestrained?

Facing Zheng Dan's worried gaze, Li Yunze smiled slightly, turned around and returned to the house.

Suddenly, the loss in Zheng Dan's heart was indescribable.

'Why, I'm not bad?' I'm a raccoon yarn shuangshu alongside Shi Yiguang! ’

When Zheng Dan was still feeling sorry for himself, Li Yunze had already walked out with a money bag and handed it to her, "Go get some food." ”

Looking at the money bag in his hand, and then raising his head to look at Li Yunze, Zheng Dan's eyes were full of doubt.

"It's not time to eat yet."

In ancient times, there were two meals, and breakfast generally started at 90 o'clock.

It's not that I don't want three meals or more, but I don't have enough productivity to support it.

"My family eats three meals a day."

looked at Li Yunze in a daze, and after a while, Zheng Dan seemed to understand something, his pretty face flushed, and he turned around and ran away with the money bag in his hand.

Li Yunze smiled, turned his head to look at the public loss class lying on the ground watching the excitement, "Lazy? Add fifty more. ”

The public losing class is really not lazy, but was shocked.

You must know that since the worship of His Majesty, the senior brothers have told him many times in private, saying that the master is not close to women, and how many times the monarchs and magnates have sent beautiful women, all of them have been returned by the master, that is really dedicated to the cause of education, without distractions.

But today, the master actually answered the woman!

This is very shocking news.

Naturally, there is no early sale in this era.

Zheng Dan went to the rich family in the village, bought some wine and sauce meat, and brought it back to his mother to cook.

The rich households in the village are basically equivalent to the commissary supermarkets or something in later generations, and the rich families will have some inventory of things that the villagers cannot afford to consume.

'My family eats three meals. When Zheng Dan was boiling the gruel, this sentence was still echoing in his mind.

That is, I was included in the family, too? ’

As soon as she thought of this, the smile on her pretty face couldn't help it anyway.

Mother Zheng on the side raised her hand and hugged her, "This gentleman is capable at a glance, and he can live a good life with him." ”

Even in this Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, if a man has money to eat three meals, that is to live a good life, and having money and goods is really a constant attraction for thousands of years.

During the meal, Zheng Dan naturally sat next to Li Yunze and served him to eat and drink.

Drinking in the morning is not to say that you are an alcoholic, but the wine of this era, which is more like a drink.

Li Yunze accepted it calmly and accepted Zheng Dan's service like an uncle.

After breakfast, Li Yunze waved his hand and asked Zheng Dan to go about his own business.

After cleaning up, Zheng's mother stayed at home and continued to prepare meals, and the head of the Zheng family and Zheng Chai would come back for breakfast later.

Zheng Dan, on the other hand, went out with the clothes at home.

Li Yunze asked the public loss class to take out his full set of tools and make spinning machines by hand in the yard.

It is not a large machine, or a wooden spinning machine, but its efficiency is much stronger than that of Zheng's mother.

By the time the Zheng family master and Zheng Chai returned from work, the spinning machine was almost done.

Li Yunze instructed the public transport team to send the spinning machine over and explain how to use it.

As for himself, he went out leisurely.

There is a stream flowing outside the village of Ramie, and at the end of the stream is the Puyang River a few miles away.

When Li Yunze came to the bank of the Puyang River, a group of village girls were washing clothes in the water by the river.

The so-called raccoon yarn is actually washing clothes.

In this era when there were no washing machines, laundry was done by hand and relied on natural water sources.

Basically, it is one of the main tasks of a woman's lifelong work, just like cooking.

The conditions in Ramie Village are okay, and it is okay to rely on silkworm breeding, mulberry hunting, and fishing.

If you are in a poor place, you don't even have a lot of clothes.

Li Yunze stood on the side of the road, looking at the girls in the raccoon yarn.

Zheng Dan's side is a young girl.

That beautiful face made Li Yunze look slightly distracted.

As the saying goes, 'the beautiful color covers the present and the ancient, and the lotus flower is ashamed of the jade face. ’

The girl put down the clothes in her hand, frowned and raised her hand to cover her heart, looking uncomfortable.

Zheng Dan on the side hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Yiguang, are you sick again?" ”

Xizi Huansha crossed the river, frowning and stroking his chest in the water. ’

Li Yunze sighed lightly and walked over.

"Nothing."

Shi Yiguang, who had a beautiful face, shook his head slightly, and showed a smile to Zheng Dan, "Just wait a while." ”

Zheng Dan also sighed, and the doctors said that this is a disease brought out from the mother's womb, and the medicine stone is useless.

Congenital genetic diseases were basically said to be terminal diseases in ancient times, because they really didn't know how to treat them, and they didn't even understand what the symptoms were.

If nothing else, Shi Yiguang should have a congenital heart disease.

In order to alleviate Shi Yiguang's mood, Zheng Dan looked left and right, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to a swimming fish in the water and shouted, "Look, this fish saw Yiguang's beauty, and was fascinated, and they all sank to the bottom!" ”
