Chapter 154 In the fields, the folk customs are simple

After the matter in Yangzhou was dealt with, Gao Yiming went to Hangzhou again, this time not by boat, but went ashore in Wuxing County and rode to Hangzhou. Although the affairs in Yangzhou are very troublesome, because Gao Yiming has been sitting in the military camp, there are not many officials who know that the emperor has arrived in Yangzhou.

Hangzhou at this time is the season of rice harvest, there are many people in the field to harvest rice, there are also because of the late maturity of rice need to be late harvest for a few days, looking at the field is very lively, which makes Gao Yiming very pleased, along the way, the villages and towns passed by are not as many as the later generations are old and weak, there is no hollow village kind of development momentum, but he has to plan in advance, began to plan the construction of a new countryside, this is a hundred years of plan.

"Fellow, I see that your rice is not fully ripe, why are you working in the fields?"

"Oh, there's an old man's fish in the field, and it's ready for consumption now, so I caught it."

"Oh, this is a good thing, rice fish, shouting, it's not small, it's a pound and a half, how about I help?"

The one who was catching fish was an old man in his fifties and sixties, Gao Yiming saw that he was not harvesting rice, so he came to talk to him, but he didn't expect him to catch fish, which is Gao Yiming's favorite job.

"Don't dare to work the guests."

"It's out of the way, I used to like to catch fish, but now I haven't done it for many years, and the technology is not as good as you, so I just asked you for advice."

Hearing that he was going to ask himself for advice, the old man laughed, watched Gao Yiming go into the water and instructed: "You have to be careful, there are water snakes in the field, but they are not poisonous."

"Don't worry, oh, there's a red carp." Saying that, Gao Yiming disappeared into the sea of rice, and soon he stood up excitedly with a red carp in both hands, and said to Yuan Guifei: "Ying'er, do you see, this rice fish is really fat."

Seeing him so happy, Yuan Guifei was also very happy, cheering for him on the shore, she also wanted to experience it, but Gao Yiming knew that she had never done this job since she was a child, and it would be distressing to cut her feet, so she let her wait on the shore and promised that the first fish she caught would be given to her.

Yuan Guifei watched Gao Yiming put the fish on straw and handed it to herself, and her face turned into a flower, both sweet and happy.

"Oh, I'll go, this yellow eel is also big."

"What's wrong, brother?" Hearing Gao Yiming's shout, Yuan Guifei immediately tightened the sword in her hand.

After a while, I saw Gao Yiming raise his hands and grab a yellow eel that was one long to eat.

Walking closer, Yuan Guifei was a little nervous and said, "This is a water snake?!"

"It's not a snake, it's a good thing, yellow eel, also called eel, haven't heard of it."

Yuan Guifei shook her head, she really hadn't seen this thing.

The old man saw that the fish basket was full, so he beckoned Gao Yiming and his family to come ashore, Gao Yiming and the old man sat on the ridge and chatted while shabu-shabu: "Boss, take back so many fish, don't break it when the weather is so hot."

"Haha, you can rest assured, it can't be bad, part of it will be used to make dried fish, part of it will be used to make pickled fish, if it's not early today, I don't know if you can hurry up, if you are not in a hurry, you don't dislike the simplicity of small households, you can go to the house to talk about it, and let you taste the craftsmanship of the little old man."

"We have a lot of people, is it convenient?"

"Rural people don't pay so much attention to it, and coarse tea and light rice can still be full."

"Hahaha! Since your old man has said so, then bother, in the next high school, ready to go to Hangzhou, passing by here, I didn't expect to meet your old man so hospitable. ”

"Haha, the little old man's surname is Qin, his name is like the sea, Gao Gongzi, please."

"Mr. Qin, please."

Walking into the village, the village heard that there were distant guests, and every family sent a person to Qin's house to help prepare the meal, regardless of their hard work.

Gao Yiming and Qin Ruhai sat in the courtyard to enjoy the shade: "I didn't expect our people here to be so simple."

"Haha--Childe wants to come and go to many places in the world, our village is all fled from the north in the early years, basically their own family, a family has guests, and the whole village is entertained. But then again, this is also because the imperial court policy has been good in recent years, the taxes have been less, every household has six or seven percent of the surplus grain to make a living, and the extra can be sold in the market to subsidize some families. ”

"This is a good year, I heard that the imperial court has been using troops a few years ago, I don't know if it will have an impact on the village?"

"This little old man has also heard about it, I heard that it was a lot of trouble outside the Guan, and it was also a lot of trouble in Guanzhong in the early years, and it has only improved over the years, all because although the war has been fought for many years, the court has never disturbed the people, and the emperor is not confused before he heard it, and he doesn't know why he innocently killed the minister back then, but he has always been able to the people, and he is a good emperor."

After listening to the previous words, Yuan Guifei and Shi Kefa both sweated for this old man Qin, and the emperor was right in front of him. But Gao Yiming doesn't care at all, you're afraid that others will say it.

He said happily: "This is also the reason why he has been staying in the palace and not walking around the people, and he was blinded by the officials.

"Who is right, after all, the world is too big, and there are many things, relying on the emperor alone, it is estimated that he will not be busy."

"Yes, the world is the world of the people of the world, so everyone must participate."

"Talking to Childe is open, but this can only be said."

"What? Is there anyone else who won't let you speak? ”

"It's not like this, the news in the key villages is blocked, and it's not easy to spread out, so we ordinary people just ask for two meals a day."

"That's the truth of what you're saying."
