Uncle Lu only felt that the eyes everyone looked at him were naked contempt, and everyone was watching his joke.
However, the facts were in front of him, and he could only bow his head no matter how unwilling he was.
He lowered his head and said, "I was confused."
Who would have thought that a little-known place like Lienzhuang would be so wealthy, with people having no worries about food and clothing, especially the sound of the loud children reading, which touched the soft spots in many people's hearts. Mr. Lu saw many
The civil servants all had expressions of relief on their faces, and one can imagine how good they would feel about Magistrate Wen.
This time, Magistrate Wen really took advantage of him.
What made Mr. Lu vomit blood the most was that he didn't realize until this moment that he was actually acting as a booster invisibly.
There is nothing more heart-wrenching than unintentionally helping someone you hate.
Magistrate Wen felt very happy at this time. He thought that if he was really promoted, he would write a special letter to thank Mr. Lu, which would definitely make him vomit blood. If the other party is unkind, then don't blame him.
Narrowed.
Rong Ji glanced at Mr. Lu and said, "Gongliang still has to take good care of his health. If he is really old and confused, he should abdicate in favor of someone more worthy."
On the southern tour, some things about Mr. Lu also reached the emperor's ears, saying that he was very intemperate in women's sex, and he didn't know how many beauties he had collected along the way. If he hadn't acted in a restrained manner, he didn't seize the opportunity.
Daughter of the people, I'm afraid that some imperial censors are going to impeach him severely.
Although he was not impeached, he still had to beat him. He chose Uncle Lu to come to the south for the tour because of the past achievements of the Lu family. But Uncle Lu is not the only one in the Lu family. If Uncle Lu is not useful, then what will happen to him?
The same goes for showing kindness to his brothers.
Under the scorching sun, Uncle Lu was sweating profusely. He was not really stupid, so he could naturally hear the emperor's dissatisfaction with him in his words.
This time, he was the only one who was appointed to tour the south of the Lu Mansion. He severely suppressed the other houses, which made Uncle Lu feel a little confused.
He quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "I have violated my etiquette in front of you. I am guilty."
"Get up, I hope this is the last time."
Uncle Lu's face turned red with shame. This time he was really embarrassed.
…
By the time they arrived at Su Yueling's village, it was already past lunch time.
The servants and palace people in Rizhuang took the time to tidy up the mattresses. Although the emperor and the queen mother said that simplicity was the priority and there was no need to mobilize troops, how could they dare to neglect these noble people.
There is no shortage of ingredients here at Rizhuang, whether it is meat, river fresh food, seafood, mountain delicacies... they are all available. This also made the imperial chefs breathe a sigh of relief, and they tried their best to make the noodles...
After all, it was already time for lunch, so the emperor and the others had some snacks to cushion their stomachs. But they couldn't really keep them waiting for a long time. Making noodles was undoubtedly the fastest.
Because the ingredients are fresh enough and the chef's skills are good enough, even if the hand-made noodles are made in a hurry, they still taste very delicious.
The villagers even enthusiastically sent food they made themselves, which they thought was good.
Braised pork, lotus leaf chicken, braised goose, fish cooked in wine...
Su Yueling didn't eat much. She didn't have a big appetite. A few snacks and a bowl of noodles were enough. But she still used a few chopsticks to cook the fish in wine... The wine-cooked fish in other places was not as good as in Rizhuang.
It was delicious. I think the reason why she built the road to the village in the first place was to cook the fish with wine. For this reason, she also built a village here. But after the village was built, before they could live in it, their family ran away.
It’s Beijing.
But Zhuangzi came in handy this time. They came very suddenly this time, but Zhuangzi's room was neatly tidied, which showed that Zhuangzi's stewards were still very dedicated. After all, there were only a few stewards who betrayed her.
She shared the untouched food that was delivered to others. She thought about it and said, "When the time comes, give them some golden nuggets."
Biyu said: "This is a way for them to express their gratitude to you, princess. If you send the golden naked child back, they will be unhappy. You have done so much for them, you must give them a chance to repay you."
A vague act of kindness will make them frightened.
Su Yueling thought about this and said, "Okay, then tell them that I really like what they did."
Biyu pursed her lips and smiled, and quickly went out to tell the villagers who were waiting eagerly outside the door.
The villagers were indeed more happy to hear the news than to give them rewards.
It was the first time that the emperor received such simple filial respect from the people. He was very happy. Not only did he taste every dish, but he also gave part of the reward to the ministers he valued.
No matter whether the ministers like it or not, they have to show that they like it.
Su Yueling and the others stayed in Rizhuang for two days.
In the past two days, the emperor also happily went to see the pig pens built by the people of Rizhuang and the vines they planted.
Especially the pig pen surprised Rong Ji even more.
Although the common people also raise pigs these days, they usually raise them in the mountains, and a family can only raise two pigs at most. But when he saw the local people raising pigs, they raised more than a dozen pigs.
In particular, they also built a specially built pig pen. These pigs looked so fat that they were much bigger than the pigs he had seen before.
He asked: "Can you raise so many animals? Are you not afraid of getting sick?"
With so many pigs, if one gets sick and infects all of them, I'm afraid there will be heavy losses.
A common pig farmer named Wang Zheng stammered: "If you can raise pigs, people from the Salesian Institute taught us specially before." It was not convenient for the White Lotus Sect to show up in their own identity, so they all used the name of the Salesian Institute.
He stuttered at first, but became more and more fluent later on.
"Thanks to them, they taught us how to treat pigs when they get sick and how to raise them to make them grow faster and fatter."
"In the past, it took us a year to raise pigs for slaughter. Now we buy feed to feed the pigs and send them to be slaughtered in less than half a year. In the past, we could only raise pigs from the beginning of the year to the end of the year before selling them."
The more he talked, the happier he became, "Before, we had no other income except going to the fields and fishing. This year, in only half a year, our family earned forty-two taels from selling pigs."
“When they first taught us how to raise pigs, we were not happy because we felt that a group of women knew nothing about raising pigs. My granddaughter went to a women’s school and was more knowledgeable than us who worked in the fields. She said
Now, can the princess trick us? If we follow the princess, when have we ever suffered a loss? The first one to eat the crab will make the most money."
"Like Lao Zhangtou next door, his family is not as knowledgeable as mine. He feels that spending money to buy feed is a waste. Feeding pig grass is enough."
"As a result, our family can raise two litters a year, while his family only raises one litter a year. The pigs are not as fat as mine. Hey, after this year, he has made a lot less than my family. His intestines are almost green."
Already."
Wang Zheng's rise has almost completely exposed his family's bottom line.
Rong Ji grasped the key point, "Did the woman from the Salesian Institute teach you how to raise pigs?"
Wang Zheng nodded, "Not only are they raising pigs, they also teach them how to grow vines."
Anyway, for common people like them, whoever can lead them to make money and live a good life is a good person. Those who are stubborn and don’t want to learn from others are not fools after seeing them build new houses and even buy gold bracelets.
Followed behind like crazy.
Rong Ji was thoughtful - he originally thought that this Salesian home was just a place to house the old, weak, sick and disabled, but now it seems that it is more capable than he imagined?
