Chapter 178: Princely and Powerful
At this time, after the rain, there will be a lot of herbs on the mountain that like shade and dampness, and it is a good opportunity to pick.
And because it had just rained, the road down the mountain was muddy, so it was not as safe as going up the mountain, and although there was a risk of slipping, it was slower than when going down.
After such a toss, when Lu Jin returned home, it was already the end of the day, but because she carried a large basket of medicinal materials, Lu's mother just said a few words to her, and then helped her take off the bamboo basket and dry the medicinal materials together.
At this time, Lu Jin's younger siblings, six-year-old Lu Yu led four-year-old Lu Heng to trot out.
Lu Heng stretched out his arms, raised his head and stared at Lu Jin expectantly with big eyes: "Sister, hug, hug." ”
I have to say that the Lu family is good-looking, although Lu's mother is a girl from the Li family who married in later, she can also be regarded as beautiful, although Lu's father is a hunter, but he has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and Lu's mother also fell in love with him at the beginning.
Lu Heng inherited his father's thick eyebrows and big eyes, because he was such a boy, and Lu's mother raised him white and tender, which was very cute.
"As soon as your sister comes back, you have to hug it, and it doesn't matter if your sister is tired or not. Lu Yu half-squatted down, reluctantly lifted Lu Heng, and then put it on the ground.
Lu Yu is only six years old, where can he be moved, but he is just coaxing him to play.
Lu Jin took a few wild fruits, handed them to his younger brothers and sisters one by one, and instructed, "Wash and eat again." ”
After taking the fruit, Lu Yumei smiled and said, "Thank you, sister!"
"Go eat. ”
"Hmm. ”
Lu Yu took Lu Heng to the kitchen and trotted to wash it.
"It's a lot of hard work. Lu Mu said with a smile.
Lu Jin disagreed: "This is what I should do, grandpa taught me this, it is nothing more than to let me inherit our family's medical skills, I naturally want to conform to my grandfather's wishes and not let his old man down." ”
"Alas. Mother Lu sighed: "You are a girl's family, now you are only ten years old, you talk old-fashioned every day, talk about what kind of mantle inheritance, you will marry sooner or later!"
Lu Jin's eyes darkened and he didn't continue to answer.
"And Shinong Industry and Commerce, Langzhong's subordinate workers are lowly, and my mother doesn't want her good daughter to be a girl, and when she enters the lowly status, Langzhong is not much higher than the status of maids, maids, and actors. ”
Hearing this, Lu Jin knew that his mother was right, and he also sighed: "It's a pity that I am a daughter, otherwise I would have to gain fame and glory for my family." ”
"Fame is so easy to obtain, let's not talk about how much that bundle of cultivation costs, if no one recommends it, where will it be stuck? To put it bluntly, this imperial examination is not for civilians, don't think about it, my mother just hopes that you will find a good family to live this life in peace." ”
Lu Jin nodded, lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the medicinal herbs.
In the evening, the front door is lively.
Several young men in their thirties carried bamboo poles on their shoulders, and the laughter could be heard from afar.
"Brother Lu, thanks to you today, otherwise not only will this wild boar not be able to fight, but we will also be in danger!"
"Yes, yes, Brother Lu is so strong and strong, no wonder your sister-in-law had to be you. ”
"That's it!"
"Hahahaha, don't make fun of me, come in, come in and have a glass of water, tomorrow we will go to Jinlai Town to sell this wild boar, we will be able to sell it for a good price!"
The hearty voice came from far and near, and Lu's mother had already left the house when she heard the familiar voice, and opened the wooden door left and right with Lu Jin's help.
A huge boar was carried into the yard, and the boar had a deep wound on its neck, which was now half covered by a coarse cloth garment.
The gray coarse cloth clothes were completely dyed red, and the smell of blood emanated.
Lu Jin on the side pinched her nose, but she felt that the smell of blood was somewhat familiar, as if she had smelled something stronger.
It's just that I can't remember it for a while.
In fact, this is also the first time that Father Lu has brought such a big prey home, where did the prey in the past emit such a big smell of blood.
Mother Lu glared at Father Lu with disgust, if nothing else, the coarse cloth clothes dyed red were the coat on Father Lu's body.
There is no outer shirt and only the undershirt, and even if there is a undershirt on Lu's father's sturdy upper body, most of it is visible.
Father Lu smiled a little embarrassedly, and instructed Mother Lu: "Get some water for the brothers to drink to quench their thirst." ”
Lu Jin consciously followed Lu's mother to the kitchen to get a bowl of water and help hand it to the uncles and uncles in the yard.
Someone praised: "The girl is well-behaved and sensible, Brother Lu, you not only have a good daughter-in-law but also a good daughter." ”
"This big girl of the Lu family looks like a gentleman, but she looks like a lady in the town. ”
"Have you ever seen a young lady from a big family?"
"Look, I've never seen it, and I can say it's like it. ”
Lu's father washed his hands, picked up Lu Jin, and said with a smile: "My daughter is not only well-behaved and sensible, but also smart, my father taught me those things, I didn't learn them, and let my daughter learn them." ”
"Yes, yes, I originally thought that Brother Lu's family would not be able to wear this craft, then our village is not missing Langzhong, there are only Langzhong of your family in the neighboring villages nearby, and without Brother Lu's Langzhong, we have a headache and brain fever, so we can only toss and go to the town." ”
"By the way, what about Old Man Lu?" someone asked where Lu Jin's grandfather had gone.
"I went to the next village for a visit, and the village chief was quite old, so he couldn't come, so my father had to go in person. Father Lu said: "It's also that I don't fight." ”
"Brother Lu, don't say that, we are just complaining, Old Man Lu is in good health, and it will not be a problem to live for another hundred and eighty years, we are just worrying about the sky. ”
"When did you learn the words, and the words are still crepe. ”
Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this, which alleviated the slightly embarrassing atmosphere before.
Lu Jin hugged Lu's father's neck and whispered: "Ah Jin doesn't want to be a girl anymore, so that I can replace my grandfather to see a doctor for everyone in the future, okay." ”
Father Lu rubbed Lu Jin's delicate cheeks with a somewhat rough face with stubble, and coaxed her: "Okay, my daughter, it's up to you to say anything." ”
"Daddy perfunctory to me, Ah Jin is serious. Lu Jin said unhappily.
"Alas. Father Lu said helplessly: "How does Ah Jin know that Daddy is perfunctory to you, in case Daddy is serious." ”
Lu Jin pursed his lips and said aggrievedly: "My mother said today, the girl is going to marry when she is older, and Langzhong is a lowly person, and she doesn't want me to be a lowly person." ”
"Uh-huh. Father Lu nodded: "What your mother said is right." ”
"But if everyone cares about whether this lowly person is cheap or not, then who else is Langzhong, who will cure the disease and save people? Saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, why is it cheap? ”
"Daddy told you. Father Lu was a little more serious: "People are born with high and low, such as princes and generals, born to be powerful, such as us grass people, born to face the loess with their backs to the sky, so there is a difference between saving an ordinary person and saving a prince." ”
Lu's father's meaning is very clear, and Lang Zhong is not all cheap.
There are also halls and halls set up in the country for the treatment of officials, which can also be regarded as scholars, but the reason why those scholars are not lowly is because they treat powerful princes and princes, and their worth has also risen.
And the reason why ordinary Langzhong is a lowly is because the people who are treated are ordinary grass people.
This is the difference between high and low.
