Chapter 127: Cattle are not ploughing cattle
The young lady said: "This is the self-grown vegetables that Ji Yu gave to Niangniang today, you should eat them quickly, so as not to catch fire." ”
Yin Kang said while eating: "It's the first time I think the vegetables are so delicious, why doesn't my sister eat some?"
The young lady said, "I can eat some, and my sister will take care of herself, and I will be at ease." ”
Yin Kang was with Miss day and night, and he also found the difference between Miss, so he didn't ask any more questions, and finished eating in a while.
At this time, the sound of horses and carriages came from the east gate of the stone courtyard, and gradually dispersed to the various courtyards of the stone courtyard, and the young lady left the house and came to the mother's room.
The eighth princess was sitting in a daze to recuperate, and when she saw the young lady coming, she asked, "I asked someone to bring you a dish, how did Qing eat?"
The young lady said, "Thank you Niangniang, the minister heard the movement, and thought that Chief Sima had returned." ”
The eighth princess said, "Just after eating, let's go out and have a look together." After saying that, he led the young lady out of the room, came to the courtyard, and walked towards the east gate.
The two men had walked through the five courtyards, and when they saw a carriage and several people on horseback, they were approaching this direction, and they stood still and waited.
After a while, the horseback came over, and it was the three family Ding farmers and Sima Qiang, and several of them got off their horses and saluted Ba Gege and Miss. The carriage also arrived, and two palace maids came down, and the Rongmin horseman led the carriage.
Ba Gege asked, "How is the situation when I go to choose a place today?"
Sima Qiang said: "Three plots of land, each with 50 acres, have been set aside, and three farmers are responsible for teaching agriculture. ”
Bagege said, "You are tired after a day's work, and you should go to rest and eat first," and then turned to the two palace maids and said, "Go to my room after you have finished eating." ”
The young lady also said to her three family members, "After you have eaten and settled, you will also come to my place." ”
After a few people answered, Sima Qiang said, "I'm going to report to the big chief, and I'll leave first." ”
Ba Gege said: "You have been tired for a day today, if you have anything to say, tell me that I will bring you a message, you go back and rest first." ”
Sima Qiang said: "The main reason is that our tribe does not have livestock that can farm, and the plough also needs to be driven to make a batch. ”
Bagege said: "I know, you go back." ”
Sima Qiang said: "Thank you Gege for your understanding and farewell." After saying that, he got on the horse and returned to his home.
Ba Gege led the young lady back to his house, sat down on the bed next to him, and said, "I thought that after dividing the cultivated land, I would be able to cultivate and sow seeds, but I didn't expect that there would be so many things." ”
The young lady said: "I haven't done it before, so I don't know the way here." ”
"I haven't seen livestock plowing the field either, so we'll go and see it together." ”
The young lady said: "The minister also has this intention. ”
The two chatted about something else, and while they were talking, there were footsteps outside, and there was a knock on the door.
Ba Gege said: "Enter". came in and followed the two palace maids to the field in the morning, carrying a kettle in their hands.
The two palace maids met Ba Gege and Miss Yu, and they had to report the situation.
The young lady said, "Don't worry, wait until my three family members come." After speaking, he said to a palace maid who was waiting at the door: "You go outside to have a look, if Qingyi and they arrive, let them come here directly." ”
The palace maid who listened answered the promise and opened the door and went out.
After a while, I heard footsteps and came to the door, and it was Qing Yiqing, Qing Er, and Qing San arrived.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Ba Gege said to the two palace maids, "You talk about it first." ”
A palace maid said: "We followed to see their choice of land, and about a mile east of the city, we stopped." The three farmers rode around with a few chiefs to check for a while, and then continued southeast. After walking for about five miles, they stopped again, and the three farmers and several chiefs continued to ride on horseback to check. Then we walked about five miles to the east, and the three farmers and several chiefs rode around on horseback, checked for a while, and began to assign the people who had been brought with us to study and work in the fields. ”
The young lady said to Bagege: "According to this, Qingyi and they know the situation better. Then he turned to Qingyi and said, "Tell me." ”
Qingyi said: "The three of them went to choose a land today, surveyed on the spot, and after consulting with several chiefs, they circled three study fields, each with 50 acres, a total of 150 acres, all of which were selected along the lower reaches of the river. Each plot of land is about 50 to 100 meters away from the river, which is convenient for irrigation. Today we have marked the enclosure, the route of the ditch and the water well to be dug, and tomorrow they will send people to dig the ditch and dig the well. We and a few chiefs planned to go tomorrow to select the cattle for farming, to customize a batch of iron ploughs, and if there were no accidents, to train the cattle and the existing iron ploughs the day after tomorrow. ”
The young lady asked, "What are the requirements for the livestock on this cultivated land?"
Qingyi said: "It is said that the stronger the livestock, the better, but it is rare for livestock here to have been cultivated, and if you directly use strong and large livestock, it is not easy to train, so you can only pick some healthy livestock about one year old to learn from scratch." ”
The young lady said: "It turns out that the use of livestock to cultivate land is still very particular. ”
Ba Gege said to the two palace maids: "The three farmers will go to study the fields in the future, you can bring food and water, and serve the three farmers well." ”
The two palace maids said, "No." ”
The young lady said, "Do you know how to pick livestock?"
Qingyi: "The little ones have served the horses, and they are okay to watch the horses, but the cattle will not look at them, so after consulting with the chiefs today, they will also take the ones who can watch the livestock tomorrow to choose." ”
The young lady said, "You will be tired tomorrow, so go back and rest early." Then he turned to Ba Gege and said, "So it seems that when they have chosen the livestock, we should go and see it when they are training." ”
Ba Gege said: "That's true, you and I are not good at farming, so we will also go and study it then," after speaking, he turned to the palace maid and Qingyi and they continued: "You all go back and rest." ”
The palace maid and Qingyi and the others said goodbye to the mother and the young lady and went back to rest.
The young lady said, "Tomorrow they will go to pick livestock, and the minister also wants to go and see, learn from scratch, what do you think?"
Bagege said: "I've seen everything I want to see today, and I won't go tomorrow, I'll wait for Ji Yu at home to prepare some meals for the farmers, you can go by yourself." ”
The young lady got up and said, "Niangniang played for a day today, rested early, and the minister retired first." ”
Ba Gege also got up and said, "I'll go and see my father and mother first." ”
The two went out of the room, the young lady went back to her room, Yin Kang was not at home, thinking that he had gone to the guard's yard to play again. The young lady sat down on the bed and played with the Jackfruit Heart Sutra.
