Chapter 123: Eat More Vegetables
After everyone sat down, Ji Xianna said: "Most of my clan are Rong people, although they have the heart to live in peace, but they don't know how to farm, I don't know what the ambassador plans?"
The young lady said: "This time I went to your state, I was ordered by the emperor of the Zhou family, entrusted by the vassal states, to teach the Rong people to farm and mulberry. The Zhou royal family does not accept your state now, presumably to see the results of this counseling of agriculture and mulberry cultivation before making a decision. ”
Ba Gege said: "The ambassador is responsible for teaching agriculture and mulberry matters, involving the survival of his own clan, and I will also help." ”
After Bagege finished speaking, the young lady continued: "I entered the territory of your state, and it is rare to see mulberry trees to cultivate land. ”
Bagege said: "The weather is getting warmer, it is urgent to reclaim the cultivated land and plant mulberry trees. ”
The young lady said: "Among the people I brought with me, there are three who know how to farm and mulberry, and this time, they will be responsible for specific matters, training Rongmin related skills, and establishing a business here." ”
Ji Xianna said to Sima Hu and other chiefs: "Gege and the ambassador have provided manpower and material resources, and we must also actively cooperate, you go back today, select people from your own tribe, learn together, and in the future, as the backbone, popularize agriculture and mulberry to your own tribe." ”
Sima Hu said: "Yesterday, I have sent my own clan to the Yan country to buy grain seeds, this popularization of agriculture, let's start with my tribe." ”
Ji Xianna said to Ba Gege: "You go back and rest for a day, tomorrow each tribe will elect people, and you will come back with three agricultural teachers to jointly decide on the details of popularizing agriculture." ”
Sima Hu said: "Things should be done sooner rather than later, let's go back and organize people." He stood up.
The little chiefs also got up one after another and said, "We will also go back and choose people, and we will discuss here tomorrow." After speaking, he hugged Sima Hu out of the main hall.
Ba Gege and the young lady also stood up, and watched the chiefs leave, Ba Gege said to Ji Xianna: "My son has not returned to his hometown for a long time, and I miss it very much, so I will go to see my mother today, and when my father goes back, please come tomorrow from the people who elected the headquarters." After speaking, he bowed down with the young lady and left the main hall.
The young lady said goodbye to Bagege, and Bagege didn't mention it since he went to visit his mother. The young lady went home, took off her official hat and packed up her baggage, and sat cross-legged on the bed and played with the Jackfruit Heart Sutra.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, I heard the sound of Yin Kang and the family talking, did a few tuna and received the exercises, and came to the door to wait for Yin Kang.
After a while, Yin Kang appeared at the gate of the compound with Wei Guan Weiyi, and Wei Guan Wei Yi each carried a burden, arrived at the gate of the compound, gave the burden to Yin Kang and left.
The young lady walked a few steps, came to Yin Kang's side, took a burden from Yin Kang's hand, and went back to the room together.
Helping Yin Kang put away the two burdens, the young lady said, "How about going out and having fun?"
Yin Kang said while untying a burden: "This Rongmin product is very different from ours. After speaking, he took out a copper box from his baggage.
Miss look at this copper box, the size of a palm, five fingers together high, fine workmanship, carved eagles and grass wolves, big horses, cattle and sheep, the lid is carved with the grassland sun and moon, very exquisite.
Yin Kang put the box on the bed, sat down and opened the lid, and there was a wooden comb inside, and under the wooden comb was a bronze mirror. Yin Kang took out a wooden comb and bronze mirror, and below it were small grids, which contained various cosmetic grease powders.
Yin Kang took the wooden comb and bronze mirror and said, "What does my sister think of this? I bought a few of these boxes, and I gave this one to my sister." ”
The young lady sat on the edge of the bed and picked up the box, observed it, asked for the bronze mirror and wooden comb in Yin Kang's hand, put it in turn, covered the lid and handed it to Yin Kang and said: "I understand my sister's kindness, but although this thing is exquisite, I can't use it, so my sister keeps it and takes it back to others." ”
Yin Kang took the copper box and put it away, and said, "I've never seen my sister put on makeup, but my sister takes good care of it, you can take a look at this." After speaking, he took out a scimitar from his baggage, about six inches long, with a cowhide scabbard.
Yin Kang handed the scimitar to the young lady and said, "Give this to my sister." ”
The young lady took the scimitar and pulled out the scabbard, which was shining blue and looked very sharp. The handle of the knife is engraved with two harriers on both sides, which is also very exquisite.
The young lady put the scimitar back into the scabbard, put it in front of Yin Kang and said, "It's good for my sister to keep it for self-defense, my sister has such a short blade here." After speaking, he took out his dagger from his left arm and handed it to Yin Kang.
Yin Kang took the dagger, smelled the wood fragrance on the sheath, and said, "Sister, the wood of the dagger sheath is so fragrant." As he spoke, he pulled out his dagger, but he saw that the cold light was shining, and the air was cold.
Yin Kang took the dagger and looked left and right, and asked, "What kind of metal is this, it looks so sharp." After speaking, he took out a knife coin from his bosom, put it on the ground, raised the dagger in his hand and slashed it, and the knife coin broke into two sections.
The young lady said, "This is a gift from my teacher, and I don't know what kind of metal it is." ”
Yin Kang put away the dagger, handed it to the young lady, and said, "My sister inherits invincible and peerless learning, and the things that come out of the world are shocking. ”
The young lady took the dagger, put it away, and said, "My sister can have a good time going out." ”
Yin Kang said: "Fortunately, I have seen many rare things. After speaking, he took out a tea brick from another baggage, and continued: "The food here is too meaty, I want to buy some vegetables, but they are very expensive, so I have to buy this first, my sister will use it with me these days." ”
The young lady took the tea brick and smelled it, and gave it back to Yin Kang, saying, "Qingyi, when will they come back?"
Yin Kang said: "They are still turning, asking about the house everywhere." ”
While the two were talking, a palace maid came in outside and said to the young lady: "Niangniang has a message, let the adults go to the meal together." ”
The young lady and Yin Kang said goodbye, followed the palace maid out of the courtyard, and came to a courtyard on the other side of the main hall.
The palace maid sent the young lady to the door of a tent and began to knock on the door, and Ji Xianna's voice came from inside: "Come in." The palace maid pushed open the door, entered the house with the young lady, closed the door, and stood by the door by another palace maid to listen.
Two low tables were set up in the tent, on which were placed copper kettles and lacquerware.
The young lady saw that Ji Xianna and the eighth princess were there, and there was a woman and a young man, sitting next to Ji Xianna.
Ji Xianna has four sons, and this young man is the youngest son Ji Ying, who just returned from Lingshou today.
The young lady met with a few people, and the eighth princess said, "Today, my mother has set up a family banquet to entertain you and me." ”
The young lady sat down beside Ba Gege, and the eighth princess said to the palace maid next to the door, "You go and inform the kitchen to serve the food." The two palace maids answered the door and went out.
Ji Xianna said: "The ambassador made a move this morning, which shocked Xiao Tiemur, and listening to his words, our clan can be kept peaceful for several years." ”
The young lady said: "This envoy is committed to the peace of the two countries and to help your country live in peace. ”
Ba Gege said: "The king often told me about the miracle of Qing, and today I witnessed it with my own eyes, and I realized that the rumors are true. ”
The young lady took a sip of tea from the lacquerware in front of her, and said, "The minister has a matter, and now it is time to explain it to the chief chief." ”
Ji Xianna said: "The ambassador has something to say. ”
The young lady said: "In the past wars and natural disasters, the people have been displaced and miserable, so this time the minister sent an envoy to your state, not only to preside over the work of tutoring agriculture and mulberry, but also to the three accompanying family members to issue my official seal, so that they can buy a place for me in your country, do something to help refugees, and ask the chief to understand." ”
Ba Gege said: "The ambassador wants to set up a place to help refugees, and he told me early in the morning that when I return to Yan Kingdom, my tent will be empty for a long time, and it can be used as a station." ”
The young lady said: "Tomorrow when the various ministries select people, Niangniang's tent can be used as a training camp in the future, but my camp is mainly based on almsgiving, so it is best to set it up in the residential area of the Rong people." According to the minister's instructions, the three family members of the minister have already gone outside to see the house. ”
Ji Xianna said: "The ambassador is doing good deeds in our tribe and stabilizing the hearts of the people, and the kindness is great. ”
Ba Gege said: "Since Qing has an idea, it will be my share when the refugees arrive, and when I leave here, I will leave two palace maids and the necessary amounts, and I will also go to the office to help Qing do things." ”
When the young lady heard this, she looked at Bagege and said, "The three family members of the minister will not keep accounts, if the mother leaves a palace maid who can count and keep accounts, it is a perfect match." ”
Bagege said: "That's it, I'll pick two of them when I go back, I can not only help your family do some housework, but also help the helpless people in the clan on my behalf." ”
Ji Xianna looked at the lady beside her and said, "Our daughter is with the ambassador, we can rest assured." ”
The woman said: "Looking at the ambassador's demeanor, you can know that the court of Yan Kingdom is indeed admirable." ”
The young lady said: "Niangniang's charity is also a lot of rumors, and when the minister heard that Niangniang was a girl, he personally mediated the conflict between the owner of the family and the slave. ”
Ba Gege said: "Those slaves are also pitiful, and they have their eggs under the war. Thinking that some of my people were captured as slaves in the Jin and Qi kingdoms, I regarded these slaves who were captured to live in my clan as people of the same clan. ”
As he was talking, the door was pushed open, and two palace maids walked in, carrying food boxes, and began to arrange wine and food on the table.
The young lady said, "The nobles are short of vegetables, so this time I will go back and buy some vegetable seeds and send them to them." ”
Ba Gege said: "The ambassador doesn't have to bother with such a trivial matter, I will bring some clansmen when I go back, and I can not only buy vegetable seeds, but also learn to plant with the seeds, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"
The young lady said: "What the mother said is true. ”
Ji Xianna said: "Bugu arranges for someone to return with my son, you can rest and play these days." After speaking, he picked up the wine bottle and continued: "My son and the ambassador have the same temperament, and I am very pleased to see it, and I will have a drink." ”
After everyone drank, Ji Xianna invited the ambassador to eat food, so he ate and drank.
A few people were eating and chatting, and suddenly Bagege covered her cheeks and didn't move, and the young lady sat beside her, and when she saw this, she asked, "Niangniang is unwell?"
