"Selling it...it's a pity, let's keep it, Brother Yan." Hu Er suggested.
The rest of the people agreed.
After all, which man doesn't cherish horses and dreams of riding one one day and galloping across the fields.
"It's quite hard to raise them, not as much as mules and donkeys. There are a lot of things to say about how to feed the horses and when they have to go out for a run." Yan Laoer said.
"Didn't Mr. Xue Qi say that he would have someone teach us? Brother Yan, we must listen carefully."
"Yes, Brother Yan, we must study hard."
…
Since everyone has the same opinion, Yan Laoer has nothing to say.
"Then keep it.
One more thing, when I went back to Guiyuan to buy bamboo, I ordered a batch of grain from someone. It's almost time and I have to go back to Huju. Let's find a few people in the village and bring my daughter with me. She knows her.
He said, go and bring the food back."
Village Chief Luo spoke directly: "Don't worry, leave this matter to us and we'll make sure nothing goes wrong."
With a straight face, he said to everyone: "I just happened to catch up today, so let's talk seriously. The Scholars have helped us enough, and they think of everything in our heads, but we can't take it for granted."
, take on what needs to be shouldered, and live your life on your own!
Scholars and public servants all have to take the imperial examination, so we don’t have to let them worry about these things every day. We will learn to stand up in the future.
You are not sure of your decision. To kill Beirong, we have to let the waiter lead us forward. We are not as good as the next generation of boys. Look at your future!
That Mr. Xue Qi just said a few good words to scare you off, and he didn’t even think about whether he was the right one. Why did Yan Er ask you to choose which one of the group was more powerful before you became the leader? Then choose from here, then
I went to the frontier army to fight Beirong face to face. If I met someone in the face, one of them would die. What were you thinking? Didn't you understand it at first...
I don’t want you to go higher. Aren’t the officials in our village all promising? But take a look at yourselves. Are you more courageous? Where are your brains?
We old guys don't object to going to practice or something, but you have to be cautious about the border army. I'm either going to restrain you and not let you go, or you don't want to listen to what others say, use your brains to think it over.
No? I pondered it over and over again, pondering it thoroughly...
Let’s talk about what Yan Er just said about buying grain. I think the boys in each of your families are quite good, so I’ll ask the waiter to take a few of them, and you can follow some more..."
A group of men whose faces were red with shame raised their heads, their eyes full of astonishment.
"That's it!" Village Chief Luo said solemnly.
…
"The old men in the village are really discerning!" Yan Yu clapped her hands and whispered to her parents: "General Xue Qi also asked me if I had caught up with the excitement of the Princess's wedding route. I was so nervous at that time."
"What did you say?" Yan Laoer also became slightly nervous.
"Of course he was vague and didn't say anything precise." Yan Yu frowned: "I am careful when talking to him now. This General Xue Qi is not only able to deceive with his words, but also has a quick mind and quick reactions.
They all wonder if he knows something. When I think about that day, there are hidden dangers everywhere."
Li Xuemei comforted: "Don't scare yourself, maybe you just asked casually, the prince's wedding is a big event in Guanzhou, and there are many people talking about it... General Xue Qi is a frontier army, and he can't control the other side of the city.
.”
Yan Yu nodded slightly and was comforted.
indeed so.
Mr. Xue Qi himself was very worried. As soon as he heard that the village wanted to keep all the horses, he left without saying a word.
"Dad, are you leaving tomorrow morning?"
Yan Laoer said: "Yes, your uncle told me to come when he left. After finishing here, he will go back... to study."
I hope the teacher remembers their agreement and must protect him!
Li Xuemei found a baggage and said, "Here are the shoes made for Mr. Tian. The eldest brother originally asked Daya to make them, so I asked Grandma Rong to take them over."
Grandma Rong can do it faster, but if Da Ya does it, she will have to wait a little longer.
She knew this was for apprenticeship, so she wanted to hurry up and not delay.
Yan Laoer opened it and looked at it, "Is it made of cotton?"
Li Xuemei said matter-of-factly: "It's getting colder, so I must make cotton gloves." She turned up the cotton gloves underneath and said, "And this, didn't you say it's cold in the government office? It's thin cotton, with your fingers exposed, so you won't delay writing."
…
When Yan Huaiwen saw this pair of cotton shoes and gloves, his pupils trembled slightly.
Yan Laoer smiled and showed off the same style he had prepared for his brother.
"Brother, you have some too. Just put them on your feet and try them on for size. Leave them alone for a while and let them cool down before wearing them."
Yan Huaiwen tried on the gloves first, moved his fingers, and then tried on the shoes. They fit perfectly.
He nodded and put them away together.
There is no need to wear shoes during the apprenticeship ceremony.
This was added by him. I believe Mr. Tian will understand it when he sees it.
The clothes, shoes and socks sewn by the female relatives in the family are given to the elders as a sign of filial piety.
Walking with one step, also intending to follow.
Observe his actions, listen to his words, learn his nature, and inherit his aspirations...
"When the Gufeng City Guards bring the Beirong corpses tomorrow, I will return to Gufeng with them." Yan Huaiwen thought for a moment and patted his younger brother on the shoulder, "Everything in the city has been straightened out. Mr. Tian has been sorting out these days.
I will go on inspection tours in various villages and towns, and you will be by my side to comfort the great master and take care of your health."
…
Yan Laoer quickly understood the meaning of his brother's words that day.
On the second day when Yan Huaiwen went to Gufeng.
Mr. Tian Da, his teacher, took him and set off to travel to various villages in the territory.
All the way, shocking!
He has been to every one of these villages. In just a short period of time, he has experienced great changes.
The smiling faces filled with happiness due to the bumper harvest turned miserable, as if invisible weights were pressing heavily on them, making them breathless and almost falling to the ground.
In contrast, Xiaoan Village is like a pure land, not shrouded in this haze, and still living under the sunshine.
Mr. Tian felt uncomfortable several times, but he still gritted his teeth and endured it.
Facing the cries of tears from the people, Mr. Tian behaved very calmly and calmly in front of others. Only when no one was around would he frown tightly. He would get up in the middle of the night, unable to sleep anymore, and sit there until dawn.
Hair falls out, mouth and tongue get sores...
Yan Laoer consciously took good care of him, but he still couldn't keep up with the speed at which the teacher was destroying his body.
Finally, we visited all the villages and towns.
Her daughter led people to transport grain back from Guiyuan and rode a donkey to see him.
Yan Yu thought that although she had met the eldest master before, this meeting was different. It was the first time she met the master.
So she brought a deer leg over.
To talk about this deer leg, we have to talk about the people of Xiaoan Village who went into the mountains more frequently after they got bamboo crossbows again.
With weapons in hand, it was indeed different. He dared to go deeper into the mountains. Although General Xue Qi did not come to Xiao'an Village again, he sent his men over.
Even though he was injured, he walked into the forest without hesitation. Not only did he lead the villagers to hunt deer, but he also carried several wolves back...
