From being an official admonishing officials in the court, he now has to worry about seeds and forage. Not that there is anything wrong with it, but the sudden change makes Mr. Xie a little uncomfortable with it.
Alas, without pasture, cattle and sheep would have nothing to eat. Without food, they would naturally not be able to produce meat or milk...
Okay, that's it. He stayed in Taozhou to atone for his sins, but now at most he feels like someone is holding a whip behind his back like a supervisor, urging him to complete what he promised to the princess with all his heart.
Xie Chen always felt that the girl from the Zhao family seemed to know something. Logically speaking, the princess would not reveal her identity casually, so no one else should have heard what he said to the princess and Bai in the carriage.
Xie Chen looked at Zhao Jingyun: "I will find a way to seed the seeds, but diverting canals and springs also requires a lot of manpower."
Zhao Jingyun smiled and said: "Our jail is overcrowded. When the weather gets warm, we can just let them work as civilian laborers."
Zhao Luoyang looked at her father. Zhao Lizheng, who had just taken office, was still a little unaccustomed. He pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry, sir. Before and after spring plowing, everyone will help build the canal."
Zhao Jingyun's smile deepened.
When the words were almost finished, the champion who had been "eavesdropping" hiding outside finally walked in.
"Thank you, Master Zhao." Song Guangyan saluted several people.
Zhao Jingyun stood up hurriedly: "We were just discussing the spring plowing. If we had known that Mr. Song had arrived at the government office, we should have waited and asked Mr. Song to help make decisions."
Song Guangyan had a humble look on his face, and he looked at the girl from the Zhao family aside: "I heard it all, Zhao...junior sister has already said it all."
Zhao Luoyang showed his dimples: "Master taught me well, but there are still many things I don't understand. I still need to ask my senior brother for advice."
Song Guangyan looked at Mr. Song in slight surprise. Did his father teach him what the Zhao girl said?
But why has he, the son, never heard of it?
Zhao Jingyun bowed to Mr. Song: "Mr. Song is a great talent. The office has been busy the past few days. Thanks to your help, Taozhou is really lucky that you have him here."
Since he is the husband of the girl from the Zhao family, it is always right for him to praise her more. Besides... every time the girl from the Zhao family brings food over, he can eat and drink...
Of course, he is not here for food and drink, he is here for the prince and the girl.
Zhao Jingyun and Xie Chen had other things to do. They got up and went out to get busy. Zhao Jingyun did not arrange any work for the Number One Scholar. Firstly, both the Number One Scholar and him were demoted, but the Number One Scholar had a higher official rank than him. Secondly, the prince had already given orders.
, whether it is Xie Chen or the number one scholar, just leave it to the Zhao family girl.
Zhao Xueli and Zhao Xuejing also got up and went out. They had to go to the village to inform everyone that the New Year was coming soon. It was too cold to prepare for spring plowing, so they had to make some fur coats to earn money.
Everyone left, leaving the house to Mr. Song, Song Guangyan and Zhao Luoyang.
Song Guangyan's mind was filled with what Zhao Luoyang had just said. Seeing that no one else was around, he couldn't wait to ask: "Junior sister, the basin you are talking about is..."
Zhao Luoyang glanced at Mr. Song and said, "Sir, didn't you tell your senior brother?"
Song Guangyan shook his head: "No."
Zhao Luoyang said: "The teacher drew a map of Taozhou, have you never seen it before? The teacher said that this terrain is like a valley, but it is also shaped like a basin, so we call it a basin."
Zhao Luoyang said as he unfolded the rolled-up map on the table and showed it to Song Guangyan.
Mr. Song sat there calmly, watching his son's every move out of the corner of his eye. When he heard his son take a breath of cold air, Mr. Song felt extremely relieved.
It’s better to have disciples, especially a smart close disciple.
Song Guangyan was really shocked. He had never seen such a detailed map before. Even forests and pastoral areas were drawn, as well as cultivated fields and reclaimed wasteland...
No wonder junior sister could talk like that just now and easily persuaded Xie Chen.
Song Guangyan's eyes changed from surprise to obsession. If Qiongzhou had such a map at that time, would he have been able to better persuade the tribal leaders?
Zhao Luoyang heard the system prompt in his mind, and then Shi Jiu said: "It's Mr. Song who will increase your charm again."
"A lot?" Zhao Luoyang asked.
Shi Jiu said: "It has been rising since the first scholar came in. Just after I looked at the map, it has risen even faster."
Zhao Luoyang blinked: "It seems that sir has other thoughts about the No. 1 Scholar."
"It seems that after finally seeing my son, I want to show him some concern from a loving father," Shi Jiu said tacitly, "Then do you want to help?"
Zhao Luoyang responded: "Who said I am Mr.'s closed disciple? If Mr. wants to do something, the disciple is obliged to help. Besides, Mr. will also give you a lot of charm points, right?"
Shi Jiu felt that Zhao Luoyang had a good reason.
After saying that, start doing it.
Zhao Luoyang said: "I learned to draw maps just because I made my senior brother laugh, but I'm not very good at it."
It was really bad. Shi Jiu lost too many charm points because of one of her dreams. She couldn't let Shi Jiu draw it for her with a pen. This map really tortured her throughout the New Year.
"Fortunately, senior brother came to Taozhou. I still have some unfinished paintings. Could you please help me?"
Song Guangyan's face immediately heated up. He could naturally draw a map, but where had he ever drawn anything like this? This map was different from what he usually saw. He didn't even understand many parts.
Song Zhuangyuan was also an honest man, and he said shyly: "This... I can't draw."
After saying this, he saw a look of surprise on the face of the Zhao girl. The girl did not ask him, but turned back to look at his father.
But his father always kept his eyes calm, as if whatever happened in the house had nothing to do with him.
After a moment of silence, the Zhao girl seemed to realize something and hurriedly said: "I'm going to make tea for my husband and senior brother."
Zhao Luoyang said and hurried out of the house.
"Dad," Song Guangyan left the table and walked to Mr. Song, "Did you teach me this map?"
Mr. Song did not speak, but his calm gaze gave Song Guangyan an answer.
Song Guangyan said: "How come dad never mentioned it before?"
The little bastard is finally worried, Mr. Song thought to himself, but he can't blame him, because before coming to Taozhou, he didn't know he had so many things. Not to mention it was just a map, he even drew farm tools.
inferred.
There is no telling which day he will improve weapons.
Song Guangyan's eyes were filled with resentment: "Dad, you are not prepared to teach your son."
On this point, Mr. Song was very frank: "I'm not going to teach you."
If I don't know how to teach my son, how can I teach him? It's useless to just call him father or ancestor.
Normally when he thought about this, he would inevitably be angry with the little fox and do whatever he wanted in his name, but now he didn't even need to know it in advance.
But today, he felt extremely comfortable.
Well, I don’t want to deny it.
The son in front of him was raised by him from childhood. He used to be obedient, but when he grew up, he became more capable and had stronger wings, so he didn't take him seriously as his father.
Why? I think he knows more things than he does. If he says anything, his son can silence him with articles.
He has been holding this breath in for many years.
Let Song Guangyan know today that even if you win the first prize in the exam, your father will still be your father!
Mr. Song's words came out happily, and Zhao Luoyang's charm was worth receiving.
Get 64 points of charm in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Luoyang and Shi Jiu said: "It would be great if we could come here once a day."
Shi Jiu said: "Isn't it all up to you? It's just that the effect is definitely not as good as the first time."
"You're right," Zhao Luoyang said, "Sir, you still have many abilities, but we didn't let our senior brother know about them."
Shi Jiu said gently: "Show him slowly and slowly."
While talking, Zhao Luoyang had a piece of beef jerky in her hand, and she expertly stuffed the beef jerky into her mouth.
After that night, she seemed to have something extra when facing Shi Jiu, maybe there was a slight barrier, but Shi Jiu treated her as before, even better than before, and did not ask her about the sudden decrease in her life points. She was alone.
Deliberate maintenance will make a person feel much more comfortable.
Maybe there are still a lot of things to resolve between them, but fortunately they can take their time.
While thinking about it, Mr. Song walked out.
"Sir." Zhao Luoyang stepped forward.
Mr. Song looked behind him: "Go! Arrange something for him to do. Fengxia Village does not support idlers."
