Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Great Landlord
"Brother-in-law......" A soft voice called from behind him.
Kong Fang didn't look back, let me be quiet, I could calm myself. He instinctively rejected the kindness behind him, but she had her own persistence.
"Brother-in-law, why did you just get up and want to work?"
"There's Carpenter Li here, don't worry."
"You're hungry, let's have breakfast."
Fang Shiyi beckoned behind her, and a maid held a tray in her hand, on which there was a bowl of golden millet porridge, three snow-white steamed buns and a plate of side dishes.
The maid set breakfast on the table and bowed her head and retreated to the door.
The smell of rice was tangy, Kong Fang's stomach was "cooing" without fighting, he no longer cared about his image, and pounced on it to gobble it up.
Fang Shibo stroked his forehead, Li Carpenter lowered his head to work, and his mouth was broken: I didn't see it, I didn't see it......
He was afraid that his master would kill people because he was worried that his family's ugliness would be publicized.
Fang Shiyi had a calm face.
After these days of getting along and observing, she has adapted to the image of her brother-in-law after amnesia.
"Uh......"
Kong Fang burped, there was no drop of millet porridge, the three steamed buns were devoured, and the side dishes almost licked the plate.
The maid came back and took away the dishes.
Moving his body, the energy provided by the food made him feel strong, the blood flowing against the walls of the blood vessels kept him warm and comfortable, and he picked up a thunderbolt shell.
The size meets the requirements, and the feel is good. Carpenter Li did not know what it was used for, and he carefully planed both the outer shell and the inner belly to be smooth, as if polished.
The hole is convenient to tell him that the shell can be planed brightly, but the inner belly is not necessary, just keep the rough embryo.
Carpenter Li habitually looked at the young lady.
The rules of the Fang family, the master is not at home, and the eldest lady is in charge; The eldest lady is not at home, and the second lady is in charge; As for the uncle, in the eyes of the subordinates, he is not as good as a housekeeper.
Kong Fang understood his eyes in seconds, and felt that his self-esteem was hit by ten thousand points.
"Listen to my uncle!" Fang Shiyi scolded.
Carpenter Li nodded, and his mood did not fluctuate much. The second lady is just an aunt's sister-in-law, and she is not very lethal when she comes forward to protect her uncle's face.
Fang Shibo glanced at his brother-in-law sympathetically and did not say anything.
However, at a young age, the criteria for choosing a mate are quietly taking shape.
Kong Fang inspected the process of grinding saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur, and their work attitude was okay.
He learned from Carpenter Li's experience, and no longer directly gave advice to the servant, but proposed suggestions for improvement to Fang Shibo or Fang Shiyi.
He asked Fang Shibo to find a fine sieve, sifted the finely ground saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur, and re-ground the fine powder under the sieve, and re-grinded the remaining roughness.
When they came out of the room, Fang Bo hurried over, he handed a small package to Fang Shiyi and said goodbye. Fang Shiyi handed the package to Kong Fang.
Kong Fang took it, and the package fell heavily into his hand.
It is a packet of soybean-sized iron beads, about two or three catties.
Finally everything is ready, Kong Fang exhaled, I hope that the chemical genius in his previous life will live up to expectations and make a qualified earth-shattering thunder.
Soon it was noon.
After lunch, he was in a panic, so he asked Fang Shibo to take him to the streets of Qinghe County. It's a shame to say that he has traveled to the Daxing Dynasty for several days, and he rarely leaves the Fang family's compound.
In his previous life, he was an otaku, and after the crossing, he tried to change himself.
Fang Shibo belongs to the Monkey King, and his short legs are like installing a small motor all day long. Kong Fang wanted to go shopping, and he immediately arranged a carriage.
The carriage was really a carriage, just a little rudimentary.
The body is the same as the board cart that pulled corn in the north in the previous life, but the difference is that in the previous life, it was a cow that pulled the cart, and now a horse. Horses are ordinary horses.
Fang Shibo personally drove the carriage, Kong Fang sat on the cart, the cart had no seats, no armrests, he could only prop his hands on the plank, and the body was three points in the face, keeping his body balanced.
The old horse not only knows the way, but also pulls the cart very smoothly. After Kong Fang gradually got used to it, he finally let go of his hands, and his body was no longer tense. The avenue in front of me is still quite smooth.
The rice on both sides of the avenue is ripe and golden, and a group of farmers are harvesting in the distance.
The familiar scenery made him sad. In another month, the rice in the previous life should also be ripe, and without his own help, my father must be busy enough.
Alas, damn the crossing, tearing apart a father and son alive, destroying an already incomplete home!
Fang Shibo looked back at him and couldn't help but wonder.
The Fang family lives in the countryside, and every time he goes to the county seat, he will let himself go, why is his brother-in-law unhappy?
"Brother-in-law, what do you want?"
Kong Fang thought for a moment and responded, "I'm brewing a poem." ”
When Fang Shibo heard that Kong Fang was going to write a poem, he immediately stopped the carriage, and his joy was overflowing, "Brother-in-law, quick, what poem have you thought of." ”
Kong Fang tilted his head......
Well, the sun is dazzling, forget it, don't look up at the sky, but you have to pretend, so his old god is brushing his virtual goat's beard, unfathomable.
Mercy Nong
In the afternoon of the day of the harvest,
Sweat drips down the soil.
Who knows the Chinese food on the plate,
Every grain is hard.
Fang Shibo chanted repeatedly in his mouth, looking at the busy farmer in the distance, and then looking back at his brother-in-law who was compassionate and compassionate, his eyes gradually brightened, good poetry, so wet!
"Brother-in-law, do you know who owns these rice fields?"
Fang Shibo interrupted the hole and pretended to be forced.
Kong Fang withdrew his bearded hand, "Such a large field should belong to many people's families." ”
"Wrong."
Fang Shibo looked at himself and waved his hand to point afar.
"On both sides of the avenue, as far as the eye can see, are our family's fields."
"Knock"
Kong Fang's head slammed into the car board, and there are at least thousands of acres of fields on both sides of the avenue! The Fang family turned out to be a big landlord!
"Those farmers are all tenant farmers of our family."
"Landlord cub...... Oh, it's wrong, Shibo, so much rice, we can't eat it in a year. ”
He asked a brain-dead question.
Fang Shibo didn't despise him for the sake of writing a poem just now.
He shouted at the carriage and went on.
The carriage swayed, Kong Fang's body also swayed, he felt like a tumbler, the left side of the body, the right side of the waist, the chassis was firm, and the buttocks were integrated with the car board.
He found pleasure in riding in a carriage. The 360-degree sunroof allows him to take in the beautiful scenery all the way, which makes him poetic.
He stood up, his hands folded, his eyes looking into the distance.
The sun shone on his body, shining brightly, and he waved his hands and chanted aloud:
Autumn words
Since ancient times, autumn has been sad and lonely,
I say that autumn is better than spring.
On the clear sky and the cranes row the clouds,
It leads poetry to .......
"Oops!"
"Autumn Words" was still two words away from being recited, and Fang Shibo pricked up his ears to listen for fear of missing it because he heard Kong Fang chanting poetry again, and forgot to drive the carriage.
Although the horse pulling the cart is an old horse, it is not a human after all, and it does not know how to avoid danger, and there are stones blocking the road in front of it and directly crushing it.
The carriage was jolted, and Kong Fang did not hold his horse steady, and after a while, he shook and fell under the carriage.
