Chapter 9: Long-lost happiness
"How did the lady make us eat meat?" Xiong Da asked.
"It is better to give a man a fish than to give him a fish, money and other things are predetermined, and one cent is less, and a fixed amount of money is kept...... Take my dowry as an example, even if I take it all out and support the people in this house to eat and drink, at most for a year, or as little as half a year, my dowry will be nothing, and then what will happen after that? What to eat and what to use? ”
"When the general returns victorious, the court will be rewarded." Song Siqi said.
Su Jian glanced at Song Siqi, and said secretly, sure enough, although Li Niang said that she would not touch her dowry, but there were so many people in the mansion, she didn't believe that no one really didn't fight her dowry: "Since ancient times, the war has been cruel, you have all experienced it, you should know that it is not easy to go to the battlefield, to be alive, and to come back intact, although we have to hold the heart of victory, but whether we can really win, what is the price after victory, I am afraid I don't need to say more." ”
Song Siqi was silent when he heard this.
Su Jian's gaze swept over everyone one by one, not wanting to waste time with them, so he only said: "Since I have read the accounts and learned about the situation in the mansion today, I naturally will not stand idly by." If you want to have a full meal, eat a good meal, and eat meat every day, you might as well hand over the General's Mansion to me, of course...... What I said was handed over to me was that the three Zhuangzi under the name of the General's Mansion were arranged by me, and the personnel in the Mansion were also sent by me! ”
Xiong Daxiong, Xiong Erxiong, and Xiong Sanmeng moved in unison, looking up at Su Jian.
"Madam, Zhuangzi is all fields, and spring plowing and autumn harvest are the most depressing......"
"Madam, we can all be at your disposal, but the land is the foundation of our survival, and we ...... We ......"
Su Jian raised his hand to stop Xiong Da and the others from continuing to speak: "I know that you have doubts about me in your hearts, and I don't want to talk nonsense, first of all, I am your master mother, it stands to reason that you should have listened to what I said." Obviously she had an opinion on the ancient etiquette, but she never thought that she would use it herself at this moment: "Besides, you may be used to living a hard life, and you think that as long as you don't starve to death, it doesn't seem to matter, but I want to eat meat at once, I want to live in a more comfortable house, although with my current ability, I can do this, but I don't want me to be too abrupt alone." After all, you generals can share your sorrows, but I prefer to share your joys! ”
"Madame......"
"Madame......"
Everyone looked at Su Jian, with suspicion, excitement, and stunned in their eyes.
"Trust me! Indeed, I will not do wrong to my people; Those who don't believe me will find a goose and receive a year's rations for this person. Su Jian looked at the blind bear: "You are the leader of the guards, and the task of counting the number of people who believe me and those who don't believe me will be handed over to you." ”
The blind bear looked at Su Jian's eyes full of scrutiny, Su Jian was very calm and calm at the moment, whether she was confident in what she said or she didn't realize how difficult it was to run Zhuangzi's fields.
"Questions?" Su Jian didn't get a response from the blind bear, and his eyes sharpened.
The blind bear saluted Su Jian: "Madame's order, subordinates must do it." I also hope that Mrs. will wait for a while, and after Xiong Da and they go back to make arrangements, Mrs. will be able to go to the village tomorrow. ”
The group left from Su Jian's courtyard, and did not notice that after they left, they hurried into the courtyard.
"Brother, what do you mean by madam?"
"That's right, brother, Mrs. is a woman, and I am somewhat convinced of the management of Zhuangzi; But involved in the operation of Zhuangzi...... The fields in the Zhuangzi are all fields, does the lady know how to farm and harvest? ”
When the blind man saw Xiong Da Xiong Er speak, he looked around, with a warning in his eyes: "Madame is the lord of a mansion, and the general is not here now, so we should obey Madame's orders." ”
"......"
"No, although Madame wants me to count the people in the Mansion who listen to her and those who don't, but we are people from the General's Mansion, so we should listen to Madame, although Madame gives us the right to choose, don't you really want to choose?" The blind man looked at Xiong Er's eyes with a warning: "I'll put my words here, if anyone doesn't listen to Madame, he will not listen to the general's words, and he will be expelled directly from the general's mansion!" ”
"But ......" Xiong Er wanted to say something, but Xiong Da pulled his sleeves.
Xiong Da looked at the blind bear, and then looked back: "Obedient." ”
Xiong Er was depressed, a meal with the smell of meat, he knew he was ...... He doesn't ...... But it does smell good. It's just that...... Can Madame really be trusted?
A day later.
In the fields, the long-lost aroma of earth came to me.
Su Jian, who was dressed in men's clothes, was shocked, and all kinds of discomfort in her body that had come from crossing disappeared at this moment, looking at the endless fields in front of her, she felt excited and excited. Sure enough, studying agriculture and working with the fields is her favorite, both in modern times and in ancient times!
Goose Huang doesn't know much about field chores, but she is fortunate to have been to the farm with her master, not to mention the layout of the farm, just about the growth of the crops in the field, the home is verdant, and it is comfortable to look at. As for the fields here, the seedlings are planted scattered, but the weeds in the fields are better than the seedlings.
"That...... Even if you don't know how to farm, you haven't seen someone else farming, right? ”
Xiong Da and the others had been following behind Su Jian, he was waiting for Su Jian's admonition, but he didn't wait for Su Jian's words but waited for Goose Huang's words: "Not everyone knows that we are soldiers who have retired from the battlefield, and rashly going to see the fields of ordinary people will cause them to panic." ”
Goose Huang was suspicious in her heart, and it seemed reasonable to say this, but how did she think that they just didn't learn?
As if she hadn't noticed the conversation between Goose Huang and Xiong Da, Su Jian went straight to the ground and reached out to knead the soil. In fact, according to her years of experience, she knew at a glance what kind of land this land was, but the rigor of years of research and experiments made her habitually hands-on: "The wheat you are planting now? ”
"Yes." When Xiong Da answered, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes when he looked at Su Jian, she actually knew the wheat seedlings of wheat, he originally thought that Su Jian was Miss Jiao, and he must not know these crops.
"It's true that you plant wheat in the spring and harvest it in the fall, but do you know why the wheat seedlings you grow don't grow well?"
"Listen to Madame's teachings."
Su Jian threw away the soil in his hand and looked forward: "The soil required for spring wheat must be fertile, and the soil should preferably have a certain amount of moisture. The land under my feet is obviously sandy, with poor water storage and many nutrients, so it is not suitable for growing spring wheat. And since you are going to plant crops, there should be no weeds in the fields. ”
As Su Jian spoke, he shifted his gaze, and his gaze at Xiong Da added sharpness: "I don't care how you planted it before, but now you must follow my method." ”
"Madame...... There is no problem with your method, but what you just meant is that the spring wheat we planted is not suitable, isn't it that Madame wants us to throw away all the spring wheat seedlings? Xiong Er didn't understand Su Jian's words too much, but he figured out what she meant, and immediately became anxious: "Madame, do you know how much we spent on these seedlings?" ”
Su Jian turned to look at Xiong Er: "The money has already been spent, and not counting the manpower and material resources we invested during the period, the result has not yet met expectations, and such planting is meaningless." ”
"Madame......"
"Miss, they shouldn't have invested any manpower, there are so many people in a farm, they don't even know how to remove the weeds in the crop field, I'm afraid that even if they plant crops, they will let the crops grow freely." Goose Yellow interrupted Xiong Er's words.
Su Jian frowned, she waited for Xiong Er and the others to refute, but seeing that they didn't speak, she laughed angrily. It seems that unintentionally, what Goose Huang said was right.
"I've already seen the Zhuangzi managed by Xiong Da, now I'll go to the Zhuangzi managed by Xiong Er." Su Jian's words fell, not giving them time to react, and left in steps.
