Chapter 30, Accepting the Invitation
"It's getting late, it's hard to walk at night, Lord Song go back first!"
"Slow down and don't send it."
After Ji Caiyan finished speaking, he flew away with light skills.
Flew away, gone, gone......
Song Wenqing: ???
"I'll come back another day."
Song Wenqing's clear voice floated to Ji Caiyan's ears.
Ji Caiyan shook his messy hair blown by the wind, rolled his eyes when he turned around, and continued to fly.
Song Wenqing: ......
Fortunately, the people in the village were picking wildflowers and selling them for money, otherwise they would have to scream out when they saw this strange scene.
Arrived at home.
Ji Shuchen was busy in the open-air kitchen, and Bai Zhixuan was embroidering handkerchiefs.
Bai Zhixuan embroidered double-sided embroidery, and only she could embroider in the capital.
"Daddy, I'm back."
Ji Caiyan sorted out the expression on his face, and said casually.
"Let's go burn the pot when we come back!"
Ji Shuchen wiped the sweat from his face, rolled noodles in his hand, and his eyes were still staring at the fire on the stove.
"Ah, I remember something else, call me when it's time to eat."
Ji Caiyan decisively turned his head and left.
Just opened the door of his own trembling house.
The two figures outside the door made Ji Caiyan pause.
It is Wang Cuihua's husband and mother-in-law.
"Is your dad at home?"
Wang Gang glanced up and down at Ji Caiyan, revealing a malicious smile.
Sticking his head out and looking into the room.
I heard that the exiled family, the mother and daughter had a very good birth, and they saw their daughters in the morning, but unfortunately they were beating their daughters-in-law, and they had no time to look.
When I looked at it today, it was really a beautiful embryo.
I have to say that the nobles in the capital are better than the crops.
"What's the matter?"
Ji Caiyan blocked the man's sight, and the expression on his face was a little cold.
"Did you say kiss, or would the old woman introduce you?"
The old woman's eyes flashed.
The daughter-in-law of her brother's son has been dead for three years, and it is long overdue to talk about the family.
"If you have something to say, just say it, I'm listening."
After speaking, Ji Caiyan didn't know where to take an arm-thick wooden stick in his hand.
Click.
Effortlessly broke and threw it at the old woman's feet.
The old woman's eyelids jumped, and the words came to her mouth and swallowed back.
Forget it, her maiden nephew is pampered, but she can't marry such an arrogant daughter-in-law.
"Three days later, I want to invite your father to my house to touch your father's blessings."
The old woman finally stated her purpose.
If you want to find a man with many sons and many blessings, there are many in the village, and it is easy to find dozens of them.
But the old woman doesn't want her grandson to be muddy in the future, and wants to find a few people who can study and get into the fragrance of books.
Ji Shuchen is a noble man from the capital.
Even if you're down now, it's much better than ordinary mud legs.
The most important point is that Ji Shuchen can read and read.
In the past, there were only two scholars in the village, one was Jiang Zhaodi's uncle Jiang Dacheng, and the other was Jiang Zhaodi's ex-fiancé Zhang Shao.
Before this, their mother and son went to these two families, and Jiang Dacheng boasted that he was a talent and was unwilling to do this kind of thing.
Zhang Shao also refused.
I can only come to find this down-and-out nobleman.
"What are you going to do in your house? What's in it or not? ”
Ji Caiyan asked knowingly.
Can the men of the village line up and beat the woman in the abdomen with a twig to give birth to a son?
Absurd.
"I told you, you don't understand, as long as your father comes to my house, he can get five cents."
The old woman's face was painful, and the wrinkles on her face were all squeezed together.
In fact, even if they don't give copper money, some people will help, and no one knows whether their daughter-in-law or granddaughter-in-law can pass on the lineage.
If you don't go today, you won't have anyone else from home tomorrow.
The meaning of giving copper coins is to buy the blessing of the other party's child.
"I'll be there in three days."
Behind Ji Caiyan, Ji Shuchen's voice came.
No sorrow, no joy.
"Hey, hey, just go, just go."
The old woman didn't expect Ji Shuchen to really agree, and thought that the scholars were as tall as Zhang Shao and Jiang Dacheng!
Ji Shuchen did not have the blessing of giving birth to a son, but he could borrow a bit of luxury from him.
Maybe his grandson will become an official in the future!
The old woman raised her eyebrows and kept thanking Ji Caiyan behind her.
Her wrinkled face was not as bitter as she had been when she had seen her on the mountain, but it looked like there was a hint of kindness.
Like a good old man who loves his grandson.
Even Wang Gang, who was still beating his daughter-in-law this morning, had a smile on his face.
Even looking at Ji Caiyan's gaze, it is not so obscene.
A little gratitude.
It seems that they don't know that Wang Cuihua is now at Lizheng's house, helping to exchange copper coins for people in the village.
thought that Wang Cuihua was still on the mountain, and worked hard to pick flowers for copper coins.
Ji Caiyan closed the door, ignoring the mother and son who were still thanking them outside.
"Dad, do you know what they told you to do?"
Ji Caiyan sat by the stove and filled it with firewood.
The firewood burned very vigorously, and a warm light crossed Ji Caiyan's face.
The water in the pot was bubbling and steaming.
Ji Shuchen combed the rolled noodles with his hands and threw them into the pot.
The brown noodles mixed with white noodles and mixed noodles are tossed back and forth in the water, revealing the unique aroma of grain.
"I know, when I was walking in the village with your mother today, I heard from others that they went to almost every house."
Ji Shuchen's face was a little bad.
I didn't expect the villagers of this place to be so ignorant.
But come to think of it, almost every dynasty is dominated by men, and succession has become the most important thing in every family.
Not to mention the people in this border area, even in the capital, in the royal family, those ideas still exist.
The reason why his stupid imperial brothers are so eager to want the location of the East Palace is that they see that he has no imperial grandson.
"His daughter-in-law's name is Wang Cuihua, and she is now working under me, helping to exchange copper coins for the villagers, and also helping to find someone to build a workshop."
Ji Caiyan put the clean bowl next to the stove, stirred it in the pot with a big spoon a few times, and put some greens in the pot.
Some of the vegetables were bought from nearby villagers, and some were taken out of the space, and they were mixed together, so that others could not see them.
As soon as the greens pass through the water, they are ripe.
"Hmm."
Ji Shuchen responded, and didn't seem to be interested in the workshop that Ji Caiyan would build in the future.
The family of three sat on a stone bench in the courtyard and had a simple dinner.
One bowl of noodles for one person, that's all.
After dinner, it was not completely dark.
Ji Shuchen rolled up his sleeves and flipped up in the ground with a hoe.
The hard soil is turned loose and soft.
Bai Zhixuan, who has always been known as the first beauty in the capital, is also holding a hoe at this moment to tidy up the soft soil into small ravines.
Ji Caiyan took the seeds that Ji Shuchen and the people in the village exchanged for and sprinkled them.
There was still a lot of water in the tank, and Ji Caiyan used a wooden bucket to water the seeds that had just been sown.
The coarse cloth clothes on the three of them were also stained with a lot of mud.
This scene was drawn on paper by the spies of the various families, and the flying pigeons were sent to the capital.
