48 October
In October of the seventh year of Cheng'an, a few months had passed since the bloody storm set off by the Lu Jiajun on Qiongya Island.
Yang Xiu's family, who had sent a small conch to Lu Ying, who spoke cross talk at the port of Wanzhou, was also assigned to the field, but their field only had time to grow some vegetables, and in October, everyone had to be busy with the autumn harvest, and even the army had to collect grain.
After all, the Lu family set aside a considerable amount of land to grow grain for the army to eat, and naturally the Lu family army had to collect it himself.
Yang Xiu's father Yang Wen joined the Lu family army, so naturally he also had to come to work, Yang Xiu and his mother Tu Niang were busy with the family, so they came to bring him water.
Yang Wen simply took his son to cut rice together, wiped his sweat and said: "The main family attaches great importance to farming, and there should be no sugar eating people in the future." β
Yang Xiu was puzzled: "Dad, what is sugar eating people?" People eat candy, right? β
Yang Wenxiao: "Dad didn't know how sugar can eat people, but a while ago a new Chinese textbook was sent to the school, which said, the master wants to sell sugar to make money, we are not allowed to grow grain in the field, only sugar cane, so that everyone has no food to eat in the end, so it is called sugar eating people." β
The potato lady was picking up millet on the side, and wondered: "What is the master doing to teach the military and the Han?" β
Yang Wen thought for a while and replied: "Knowing this, I won't want my master to come back." β
Potato Niang suddenly realized, too, their family had no land before, and they didn't have a deep understanding of sugar eating people, but other people who have been farming for many years must have been bullied by the sugar master, and there are many people who starve to death.
However, Potato Niang, who has not experienced the popular trend of "Aunt of the Republic of China" and "Wei and Jin Noble Girls", still thinks that it is redundant for the main family to do this, because how can normal people miss the master? Could it be that life is not good now?
The Lu family drove away those people, so naturally they didn't want people to miss them, which is something that ordinary people can understand.
Naturally, the Lu family is as high as the old man, but they are also different from the old man, the Lu family took over Qiongya Island in order to let everyone live a good life, have land to plant, have food to eat, and not be bullied by the Japanese bandits.
Potato Niang is a daughter of the Han family, and she whispered: "Is the main family going to be an official?" β
Yang Wen: "It doesn't matter if the Japanese come to the government, they have always been in charge of the master's house." β
The two chatted, and they didn't have any opinion on being ruled by the master's family, the little people didn't care about what legal orthodoxy they had, they just wanted to live a good life, and the lord's family gave them land, and they went with the master's family.
What's more, it's useless to have opinions, the main family has an army, and even Yang Wen is a member of the army.
After cutting the rice for a day, someone came to deliver food in the evening.
Like Yang Wen, the three jumpers in the army pushed a cart of multigrain steamed buns over, raised his voice and shouted long: "Come and eat steamed buns, come onββ"
The setting sun reflected on the three jumpers, covering his lean and swarthy arms, bright and smiling eyes, and he wore a waistcoat made of linen, which was enough for the people of Qiongya in October.
Yang Wen ran over, and the three jumpers said: "Two steamed buns per person, there are side dishes, come and get them, and add a lot of flour from fine grains when mixing noodles, and eat them while they are hot." β
Yang Wen took two steamed buns, Potato Niang took side dishes, there was a stack of pottery plates on the car, and a handful of Lijia's sauerkraut was sandwiched with a tong, which was very appetizing to eat with steamed buns.
The three jumpers looked at them and said, "Only the sergeant can take it, and the family members can't take it." β
Yang Wen: "Two is enough." β
Yang Xiu took half a steamed bun from his father's hand and took a bite, just like the three jumpers said, the hot steamed bun is fragrant, and it exudes a sweet taste after contact with saliva after the entrance, and the taste is even more popular with the children who are changing their teeth.
The potato lady also divided half of it, and when she ate it, her face was full of sweetness, Yang Wen looked at his wife and children with gentle eyes, and when he saw that they were eating well, he wiped his wife's sweat again.
Of course, taking his wife and children to rub steamed buns can only be done during the autumn harvest, if you train in the army, you have to eat all the food you send down, and you will be scolded for the rest.
After eating, it's time to go to night school, the new rules of Qiongya Island, Lu Jiajun must be literate, and those who can't read and write won't even have a chance to be promoted in the future, Yang Wen is a little ambitious, and he thinks that if he learns to read and write, he can go home to teach his wife and children, and he is very active in this matter.
Naturally, there are many people who have the same idea as Yang Wen, so the brick house with a lot of candles is crowded with people, and there are many embroidery girls in the next room
Watering the patio.
This is the case with Qiongya Island, which is handed over in summer and autumn, if you don't use water vapor to cool down the heat, people will be too hot to pass.
Lu Ying just entered the county government office of Wanzhou County, and he was almost splashed with water, but fortunately, the villain had secretly practiced the "Tianshan Sutra" to the third level, and he dodged flexibly, and only his calf was splashed a little.
It was a military man who splashed the water, and when he saw Lu Ying, he knelt down on one knee despite the fact that the ground was full of water: "The villain has no form, and he has offended the nobles." β
The weather is hot, Lu Ying only covered a thin layer of silk on the outside of the dirty clothes, which looks semi-transparent, but the patterns on the silk are extremely cumbersome and gorgeous, and she stepped on a pair of sandals decorated with silk rope and coral, and you can see the bloodless toes with nails.
"Get up."
Lu Ying quietly walked to the window, holding the window with both hands, tiptoeing to look inside the class, looking focused, Qing Lingling's eyes were a group of dark and emaciated soldiers, under the guidance of Mr., hungry for knowledge, and seriously writing in the sand table.
Now the county magistrate has more than a dozen literate gentlemen on hand, teaching the children in the county during the day and the adults at night, busy from day to night, and his voice is always dry and hoarse.
In addition, there is a unified literacy test for the whole island every month, which county has the largest number of literacy, it will also affect the gentlemen's income, and those who teach well can go up, and gradually, these gentlemen will teach very carefully.
The child's hair at the window was black and thick, and only the sideburns were braided into braids and coiled to the top of the head with blue silk, and the rest of the hair was also tied into small braids, but it was not coiled up, only hanging down on the back, and the ends of the hair reached the waist, which was an exotic dress different from that of the Han people.
Yang Wen is a Li family man, but also a devout disciple of the rain god, he first looked at Lu Ying's back in astonishment, then squatted next to Lu Ying, after a while, the little master of Qiongya Island also squatted down, a small group, Yuxue lovely child asked him.
"You're not going in?"
Yang Wen replied respectfully: "I was the first in the last exam, and I already recognized some of the words in it, so I came out to splash water to go to the summer." β
The distinguished little guest asked a few more questions about whether the county's teaching is good, whether it is better to teach Chinese or mathematics, and what questions to pay attention to during the exam.
&
nbsp; After asking, Lu Ying patted Yang Wen's forearm, as if encouraging, and floated away.
Yang Wen sat under the window, and in his ears was the voice of the teacher who was angry and carried the lesson of the slowest student in the class.
After a while, he couldn't help laughing, and inadvertently remembered the heads that had been hanging on the city gate for a long time.
Some of those heads belong to the old bustard with the most warblers in Wanzhou County, and some are rape||The ruffians who have fornicated with women, and the kidnappers who abduct and sell people as piglets, and the old man.
These wicked people are not masters, but the persecution of the common people is not necessarily worse than the masters, the Lu family is ruthless this time, hanging their heads to rot, and smashing them and burying them under the road at the city gate, so that tens of millions of people can trample on them.
This is a real shattering end, and it is very intimidating for everyone, but strangely, most people are not too afraid, and even feel at ease.
Since some people lost their heads, and a group of soldiers patrolled around the county arrest squads, the security of Qiongya Island has improved suddenly, and sometimes women go out alone to buy things, or go to the neighbor's house to borrow something at night, and they are not afraid of being harmed.
When the Lu family swept Qiongya Island, Lu Ying also led troops to clean up the counties in the southeast of Qiongya Island, including Wanzhou County.
The last time Yang Wen saw Lu Ying, he was still sitting on the arms of his subordinates solemnly, and indifferently let his subordinates hang a bunch of heads on the city wall.
But this time, Lu Ying was like an amiable fairy boy, with the compassion of immortals in her eyes.
Yang Wen is a rough person, he can't think too far, just looking at Lu Ying's appearance, he feels that this generation and the next generation of Qiongya Island should have a stable and good life.
Because Lu Ying spent a lot of time and manpower measuring the fields on the island this year, and proposed to stick to the amount of cultivated land for grain production, many fields have been reclaimed into grain fields, and the soldiers and men will also go to the tenants.
Tired is naturally tired, and the amount of grain that may be received is unprecedented, without the landlords who make the difference in the middle, the Lu family is simply a wave of fertilizer after the autumn harvest, and even next year's military salary does not have to worry!
now
Lu Fang is in the Lu family's mansion in Qiongshan Port, with a group of account offices picking abacus beads.
With these grains, the Lu family not only returned to their original capital by killing Qiongya Island, but also earned countless amounts!
Lu Ying didn't stay at home, he attached great importance to the autumn harvest, and on the first day of the autumn harvest, he personally took the sickle to the field and cut an acre of rice, and after cutting, his waist hurt so much that he almost couldn't straighten up, but he didn't care about resting, turned around and got into the carriage, and asked Hua Meijing to rub his waist all the way, and personally looked at the autumn harvest situation in each county, and investigated the progress of blindness in various places by the way.
As long as adults are well fed and raised, their brains will not be dull to anywhere, plus those who can join the army and work in the embroidery workshop are young people with good physique, and the standard of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division within 100 and recognize 300 words as long as they work hard, there are a lot of people who have reached it within three months.
After patrolling Qiongya Island and going home, Lu Ying changed out of sweaty clothes, and Hua Meijing boiled a large pot of potion with cicada, mint and other medicinal herbs, and let Young Master Sun soak in a medicinal bath.
When he came out, Lu Ying changed into a cyan gauze coat and sat in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness, with a cup of herbal tea that was boiled and cooled in his hand, and Feishuang took a comb to grate his hair.
There are a lot of people with sores on the mouth and tongue on hot days, Lu Ying's tongue is also ulcerated, and it hurts very much to eat, he drank a few sips of herbal tea, clapped his hands, and Lanxi came over to listen to the order.
"The autumn harvest in the counties is fine, there is no big mistake, the roads in several counties in the south of Qiongya Island have not been repaired, and the carriage is not smooth, which is not conducive to trade, urge a rush, and I see that some people in some counties are full of lice, which is not good, it is easy to get sick, and the problem of open defecation on the roadside should also be changed, to build a special public thatched house and bathhouse, this year is lucky, there is no epidemic on the island, but it is impossible to have this good luck every year, or pay attention to the ......"
Lu Ying said a lot of things, Lan Xi remembered well, but there is no need to do it right away, next month the Lu family will have a meeting, Bashui will send people to participate with many stewards and county officials, and they will talk about it together.
Naturally, this meeting is that the high-level of the entire Lu family army will come, so the Qiu family, which is attached to their family, will also send people.
The thin dog barked, wagged his tail and jumped in front of Lu Ying, and was stroked on the head.
"Rabbit, he'll soon bring the fat man to play with you."
Lu Ying leaned back in the rocking chair, and Hua Meijing sat on the small stool next to him to check his pulse.
Speaking of the boy who ran around with a cat bag on his back, Hua Meijing was also a little worried, Young Master Sun usually had servants and family members by his side, but he didn't have any friends around, and the old family owner was busy, so it was inevitable that he would be a little lonely.
Young Master Qiu is calm, lively and smiling in front of Young Master Sun, and he speaks very interestingly, everyone likes Young Master Qiu very much.
Hua Meijing said: "I heard that Young Master Qiu went to Fuzhou to do business, I don't know how much coconut oil he sold this time." β
Lu Ying's eyes fluttered: "He, as long as he doesn't do that posture, he should be able to sell a lot." β
Qiu Yu once said to Lu Ying that he had a posture that selling coconut water and coconut oil was easy to use, and after speaking, he held a bottle of coconut oil high behind him with both hands, his body was struggling into a strange appearance, and his chest was erected.
"Qiu's coconut oil, a nine-year-old brand, insists on using the freshest coconut, and is the best choice for maintaining your teeth after a wedding banquet!"
Remembering that impressive posture, the courtyard fell silent.
Lu Ying put her hands on her cheeks: "Qiu Yu just needs to sell coconut oil peacefully and don't cause trouble." β
Late at night, Qiu Yu, who was selling goods along the coastal cities and counties, sat on a boat and blocked a group of people on the dock, the young man's sharp eyebrows and eyes were full of coldness, and he looked at several sturdy men cautiously and politely.
"I wonder what you're doing here late at night?"
Several lean men dressed in Han clothes looked at him, and the leader smiled and spat out a string of muttering words.
They didn't expect Qiu Yu to understand, but when Qiu Yu played volleyball in his last life, he had been the main attacker in a championship club in the Japanese League for two years, and after hearing what these people said, he was stunned.
That's what these people say.
"Kill?"
"Kill, the Giant Whale Gang said, let everyone who doesn't pay the passage fare die."
Qiu Yu is not a person who sits still, and in the next second, he took out a ball from behind his back and smashed it over.
A large cloud of white smoke spread across the dock, and Qiu Yu drew his sword and rushed forward.
The cold light of the cold soldiers swept across the river, and several streams of blood splattered on the bluestone slabs.
