Chapter 10
Thanks to the hard work of farmers, most of the Yang family's nearly 10,000 acres of farmland have been planted with mung beans.
Mung beans are generally the best cash crop that people rush to plant after disasters in spring and summer.
Mung beans are originally beans and can be used for both food and medicine, and their growth period is also very short.
It takes seventy to one hundred and ten days, which means it can be harvested in as little as two months or as long as less than four months.
At least it can allow farmers to get some benefits from the land after the disaster. At least it can allow the farmers to get some benefits from the land after the disaster. It seems that the wisdom gathered since ancient times cannot be underestimated.
While sighing, he subconsciously reached out and touched his abdomen. The rigorous and self-disciplined training career of the top students in the Physical Education Institute had gradually shown its power. Yang Qian could already feel the faint abdominal muscles under the thin abdominal fat.
Just when Yang Qian was sighing with emotion, he heard the chatter coming from not far away. The words seemed to mention the eldest son of the Yang family.
Yang Qian couldn't restrain his curiosity, so he and Na Zhili tiptoed over there.
Not far away, I saw several farmers enjoying the shade under a towering ancient tree, drinking cold water to relieve the heat and chatting.
"...I never thought that I could actually hear Mr. Yang reading right next to those leek fields."
"Really or not, Mr. Yang stayed up most of the night and was actually studying?"
"I can testify to this, and I have heard it too. Otherwise, how could Mr. Yang be so knowledgeable and talented? Is it because he works so hard and studies day and night?"
"Then 'Please get rid of it. It has no support from the people.' And the 'gift of death is not as good as a corpse, hanging a life is not as mourning'"
Although I, the sixth one, can’t understand what the hell the young master is reading, it must make sense.”
"No, it's not like we haven't grown leeks before, but look at the leeks in the vegetable patches outside the house.
It looks like it's going crazy. I'm afraid it will take a few days before it can be harvested. I think it's probably because I heard the young master reading that it grew so fast."
"That's natural. Our young master is an extremely rare gentleman.
I heard from Lao Qi in the mansion that every word, deed, and action of the young master is in accordance with the behavior of a gentleman."
"Nonsense, if our young master is not a gentleman, who else in the world would dare to be called a gentleman shamelessly?"
"that is……"
#####
Listening to the gossip of these old farmers, Yang Qian, whose face turned a little purple after being praised, quietly made a gesture towards Zhili and retreated towards the original path. He couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
This misunderstanding is really big. Did the leeks grow so fast because of listening to my own reading?
If a farmer buys a lamb tomorrow, do you have to take it near your yard and supervise it to listen to your reading?
Maybe one day someone will arrange it: In ancient times, there was Gong Mingyi talking to cows, and now Yang Qian is reading to sheep...
Zhili beside him looked at the expressionless and despairing Mr. Yang with admiration.
This magnanimity alone is hundreds of times better than those people who are just as happy to get a few compliments from others just because they are trying to gain fame and reputation.
Being able to follow this humble gentleman whose words and deeds are consistent, Zhili seems to feel that his soul has been sublimated and purified.
He hadn't finished sublimating yet. Young Master Yang, who was walking in front, had just taken a step and was about to enter the palace gate when his steps suddenly slipped.
If it hadn't been for Mr. Yang's strong skills and his ability to hold on to the door frame next to him in time, he would have fallen down right now.
"Where did this chicken shit come from?" He held on to the door frame with lingering fear. After seeing clearly the culprit on the soles of his feet and on the floor, Mr. Yang's face turned dark.
Zhili, who was behind him, was also startled. When he saw the things on the ground clearly, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Sir, maybe the chickens kept in the livestock yard escaped. I will clean them up now."
Taking advantage of this time, Yang Qian came to the stone path and rubbed the chicken feces off with the soles of his feet on the grass. Suddenly, he had an idea and thought that the laying hen feed formula he had just obtained had not yet worked.
Seeing Zhili rushing back with a broom and dustpan, Yang Qian asked, "Are there many egg-laying chickens in our house?"
Zhili couldn't help but pause while his hands were moving, and carefully looked at Yang Qian's expression and replied.
"We have quite a lot of poultry in our house. There must be dozens of them anyway. Most of them are egg-laying hens, and there are only two or three roosters.
As for the puddle of chicken poop, I really can’t tell if it was caused by hens.”
"???"
When Yang Qian heard the last sentence, he almost wanted to hit someone.
"Why, do you think I am a person who can even anger a chicken?"
"Young Master, you are a gentleman, of course you are not good at it. It is a villain talking nonsense. Young Master, please don't be angry..."
Seeing the murderous look on the young master's face, Zhili quickly nodded and bowed to please him.
"I don't have much time to vent my anger on you. I'll write you a list later and you can go purchase according to the list. I'll be of great use to you, sir."
"Sir, what do you want to do?"
"Sir, I want to see if I can make the hens in the house lay eggs more diligently." Yang Qian said matter-of-factly.
Zhili was a little confused, but when he thought that the young master could even grow leeks, it was possible that there was not really a way to make chickens lay eggs.
He agreed and was about to leave, but the young master suddenly shouted again. "Slow down!"
Turning his head, he saw the young master with a complicated expression. An idea flashed in Zhili's mind, and he couldn't help but said happily. "Young Master, do you want to study again?"
Yang Qian looked at this smart book boy and let out a long sigh of melancholy.
As expected, the system, which seemed determined not to let him idle, once again issued a task.
Mission release: Please read the entire story of "Spring and Autumn Gong Sheep". Progress 0/100%. Mission completion reward: a treasure chest.
Seeing the eye-catching flashing fonts on the advertisement board of a rural ktv again, Yang Qian had a look of insensitivity. He was extremely curious in his heart, what kind of weird book this was.
"Zuo Shi Chun Qiu" is easy to understand, but what the hell is this "Spring and Autumn Gong Yang"... Isn't there also "Warring States Ewe"?
Come on, the system has its destiny, so how dare you disobey it. If you don't follow it, who knows what evil will come out of this system.
Yang Qian, who was tired and troubled, put on a calm and calm demeanor and looked at Zhilidao, who was looking at him eagerly.
"Yes, sir, I want to read "The Gongyang of Spring and Autumn" now..."
"Young master, you are indeed a rare example among scholars. Even though you work so hard, you still do not forget to study the books of saints and sages. I really admire you..."
Zhili quickly complimented. He was secretly relieved. He didn't forget to study at such a time. It seems that the young master's illness has been cured.
"Then I would like to ask you, sir, to wait for a moment while I go to fetch water for you to bathe in, and then I will wait for you to read."
"You can take a bath, but you don't need to clean yourself." After hearing the word "cleanse", Mr. Yang suddenly felt a chill in his crotch and subconsciously tightened his legs.
It seems that although the young master is well, he has not recovered yet, and even his memory has been affected... Zhili silently gave a sincere explanation to the young master's abnormality in his heart.
Otherwise, how could such an extremely intelligent young man call "Spring and Autumn Gongyang" by the wrong name?
