Hui'er has grown up, and Xu Xiaode is over forty. He doesn't know what else to teach his daughter. He just wants her to be safe.
Xu Xiaode said again: "I have Marquis Zhaofu of Lao County. I will send letters to my family after I return."
Xu Hui took a step forward and said, "Dad, let your daughter handle this matter. Daddy has to deal with the affairs of the court and it is inconvenient to be distracted by other matters."
She told her father in a very strong manner that she would handle this matter without his father's intervention.
She takes care of the family's worries and can do it all by herself.
Xu Hui added: "Brothers Qi Dan and Qizhuang have never had their own opinions in the family."
Speaking of the two sons in the family, Xu Xiaode did not refute Hui'er's view. The two brothers had lacked independent opinions since they were young and mostly followed the crowd.
Faced with Hui'er's current strength and assertiveness, Xu Xiaode didn't know whether to be happy or worried. After he was appointed censor, all his old relatives and relatives from Jiangnan East Road came to join him, but they all refused.
Xu Xiaode also understood that the family could not count on these two sons now, and only this daughter, who had been studying in Lishan, was independent and talented.
He gave Xu Hui some instructions and left again.
After a long sigh, I finally let Hui'er's mother's family, her mother's family, handle the matter first, and then slowly bring in the old relatives to join in the matter.
The next day, Xu Xiaode wrote a letter to his family. It took half a month for him to receive a reply.
But the reply came quickly. In June, Xu Hui took the letter sent from home, and her words contained the harsh criticism and questioning of her uncles.
Xu Hui just downplayed this and said: "It's okay if they don't want to, and we will separate from now on."
Xiao Wu whispered: "Well, this is indeed the case. If you should give up, you should give up. People who cannot make up their minds will only become a burden in the future."
Xu Hui only led people from her mother's family to plant tea, and her father's family was very opposed.
Xu Xiaode is not a person who is good at smoothing things over. Rather than leaving his father in a dilemma, it is better to make his own decisions again and separate the family.
Li Lizhi was surprised by Xu Hui's determination.
The three of them grew up together and have been together since childhood. Li Lizhi was surprised that Xu Hui had such determination.
Li Lizhi had just returned from practicing her bow. She relaxed her shoulders and said, "In this case, you will have no way out."
Three and a half-year-old girls were sitting in the room, chatting in low voices.
Xiao Wu advised: "If we don't give up on this matter, there will be more troubles in the future. Junior sister has done a good job."
Li Lizhi originally wanted to persuade her, but she suddenly smiled and said: "I am a little envious of you. If you can say that I want to give up, I will give up."
Being in the royal family, Li Lizhi felt that she could never get rid of it in her life. She thought of those clans again and said, "We are different. Xiao Wu's father is Ying Guogong. There are a lot of clan uncles in the royal family. Only you are suitable to be with the teacher.
You can come and run Lishan."
Disciples all have to inherit the mantle. Xu Hui has the least constraints and is the one who has the best chance to inherit the teacher's mantle, especially when it comes to running a school.
The three of them can now look at Lishan's accounts. Xu Hui is the most attentive and can help the teacher solve many business matters.
Now that the teacher is pregnant again, the master is either busy with craftsmanship or plowing the fields all day long. Most of Lishan's accounts have been handed over to Xu Hui.
Both Li Lizhi and Xiao Wu could see that it would happen sooner or later.
Xiao Wu encouraged: "Junior sister, please manage the teacher's family business well, and I will learn the teacher's math skills well, and I will carry forward Lishan Mountain Gate to the world in the future."
This is Xiao Wu's goal, and Xiao Wu is one of the most talented disciples.
Xu Hui nodded heavily, "Senior sister can definitely do it."
Li Lizhi is the chief disciple of Lishan Mountain, with a smile on her face.
"What is senior sister's ambition?"
Seeing the two junior sisters looking at her, Li Lizhi avoided her eyes and said, "What ambitions can I have? There are so many younger brothers and sisters to take care of. There are so many things in the royal family. How can I have the chance to aspire?"
Ability to make decisions easily."
It is easy for Xiaohui and Xiaowu to make a decision, it is just a matter of one sentence.
But this matter is very heavy for Li Lizhi. As a royal heir, she has a clear understanding of this identity.
Seeing Xiao Wu and Xiao Hui setting their ambitions like this, she smiled and said: "Master said today we want to have barbecue, so we will also help prepare some cakes."
Xiao Wu also nodded, "Master likes to eat cakes these days."
Tonight we were having barbecue at home. Zhang Yang used wooden skewers to skewer the meat and put the meat on the iron rack to grill. Xiao Qingqing stared at the fat dripping from the meat skewers and swallowed his saliva.
Seeing her getting closer and closer to the stove, Xiong Da couldn't stand it any longer, so he walked over with his fat body twisting, picked up the little master by the back of his collar, and took her away.
This scene has happened many times since childhood.
Listening to Xiao Qingqing's scolding of the big bear, her aunt covered her mouth and chuckled. Bears like warmth. When it was a child, a piece of its fur was burned by the stove fire. It remembered that it was winter, and from then on it was unwilling to go near the stove.
Then it felt that the stove was a dangerous place and would not get too close to a place with an open flame.
Animals also have spirituality, especially the bear, which is so understanding of human nature. It is its duty to protect its little master, and it must take the little master away from dangerous places.
It's June in Guanzhong, and it's the summer of the year. Shangguanyi's grape trellis has produced great results, and grapes have grown on the grape trellis.
Grapes are very small, slightly larger than sesame seeds.
Shangguan Yi picked one and tasted it, with a smile on his face.
He tasted one and felt that it was not sweet enough. It was probably due to the soil and water. This was a seed sent from the Western Regions.
With this experience, he felt that he could change the fertility of the soil and replace it with better soil next year, so that he could grow better grapes.
Zhang Yang took Li Yue to the post house in Lishan to check on her pregnancy today.
The medical center was as quiet as ever. Sun Simiao checked the pulse and nodded for a moment: "The pulse is very good. May I ask how the fetal movement is, Your Highness?"
Li Yue held her waist and said: "Every day, three or four times on some days, and sometimes it lasts for half an hour. This child is more noisy than Xiao Qingqing."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sun Simiao smiled and nodded, "The pulse is very good, the princess looks good, and the fetal movements are normal. She is ready to give birth at any time, and she will probably give birth in July.
It can be as early as half a month, or as late as one month."
Hearing the news, Li Yue felt relieved, "It's another year to wait for this child to be born, but it's been a long wait."
There are many pregnant women lining up outside the house. Lishan has also been vigorously increasing its population in the past two years.
Originally, the population of Lishan was not large. As everyone's life improved, four or five children were born every year in the past two years.
The most common children nowadays are children, who have just grown up to four or five years old and are very playful.
This made Lishan noisy no matter where he went, and every household couldn't control it.
The couple walked out of the hospital, not daring to disturb Dr. Sun. There were several women in the village who were preparing to give birth.
Li Yue held her back and looked a little more relaxed, "In the future, there will be another child in the family. The aunts have prepared clothes, and many of them were worn by Xiao Qingqing before, just for this child.
"
In fact, the same is true for children in the village. If there are two children in a family, the older one will always be left to wear the younger one if it cannot fit.
Or if someone next door has just given birth to a baby, they will give some clothes worn by their previous children, and every household passes them around like this, helping each other.
When your child is born, the clothes that my child can’t wear are given to your family so that they can always wear them.
Because Her Royal Highness the Princess and the County Marquis are diligent and thrifty.
The owner of Lishan is diligent and thrifty, so the villagers of Lishan have also become diligent and frugal. With the passing on of old clothes, this tradition of thrift and simplicity has continued.
It also symbolizes the friendship between neighbors and shows the unity of Lishan.
As the couple walked along the path in the village, the villagers here all looked at them respectfully.
When a naughty child came forward, he would be slapped on the back of the head by his parents, and then the child would respectfully salute to Her Royal Highness the Princess and the County Marquis.
Li Yue has never disturbed the lives of the villagers. If the mistress of Lishan often walked around in front of others, it would inevitably make the villagers here feel constrained.
It is best if the life of the family does not interfere with the lives of the villagers. The villagers respect the host family on the top of Lishan Mountain. They often tell the children to remember the great kindness of the princess and the county prince and be grateful.
In this way, Lishan Mountain becomes a very sacred place, and the villagers will work together to protect Lishan Mountain.
Today's five-year-old children should have known since they were sensible that the princess lived on Lishan Mountain.
Hard-working people form a family, and this family is full of family warmth. This is the most ordinary family.
These ordinary families make up the most hardworking Central Plains people in the Central Plains.
People in this land have been hardworking since ancient times.
This kind of nature can also be seen in the villagers of Lishan.
The three-year-old child has never experienced the hard days of the past and relies solely on the words and deeds of his parents.
The bookstore in the village has been expanded several times. As the number of children in the village increases, the warriors Yun and Ouyang Xun let some older children teach the younger children, so that the pressure on them can be reduced.
However, continuing like this is not a long-term solution.
Back on the mountain, Zhang Yang also planned to expand the academy, at least building a slightly larger academy first so that the children could have a place to study.
After Xu Hui sent a letter to the clan in Jiangnan Dongdao wanting to separate the family, the reply did not come for a long time.
Just a few days later, Xu Hui's mother sent a letter saying that several pieces of mountainous land for growing tea had been decided.
Xu Xiaode came to the village again that day. Zhang Yang poured him a drink and said, "I think you are in a dilemma now. Why don't you ask for leave from Zhonggao and stay in the village for a few days."
Xu Xiaode shook his head and said: "It's not necessary, I just feel that the child has grown up unconsciously, has his own ideas, and is capable."
After speaking, he smiled again and said, "The county prince is also a father, so he will understand it."
Zhang Yang quickly toasted to him, "Then I will ask you for advice more in the future."
Shangguan Yi and Li Tai both ate grapes and took a bowl, "These are grapes grown by our Taifu Temple ourselves."
Xu Xiaode took one and was surprised: "It's not bitter or astringent?"
Li Tai explained with a smile, "They say oranges are grown in the south and tangerines are grown in the north. Some people say grapes can't be grown well in Guanzhong, but that's not true. You just have to choose the right season and change the soil and water, and then you can grow them."
Shangguan Yi added: "Although it's not as good as the ones in the Western Regions, it's still rare to grow it like this."
Xu Xiaode smiled foolishly after drinking, eating grapes in his mouth and said: "I miss Brother Da'an a little, and I don't know how he is in Liaodong now. I have always been thinking about meeting him again. The three of us will be together in Lishan Mountain."
drink."
When I think about how the three of them were officials in the East Palace together, Xu Xiaode was a talkative long history, Da'an was a palace attendant, and he was the head of the palace. The three of them were studying together in the East Palace, accompanying the prince to study, and dealing with Duke Zheng together.
picture.
There were also quarrels and arguments, and the prince tried to smooth things over. I feel nostalgic now when I think of these scenes.
But it's different now. The three people at the beginning have all left the East Palace.
Da'an went to Liaodong as soon as he left and served in Liaodong for three years.
Xu Xiaode became the censor.
Zhang Yang thought about his situation again and sighed, "The news from the Ministry of Rites said that Goguryeo's Yeon Gaesomun had put the King of Goguryeo under house arrest. As a result, the king could not be released, and the conflict between Goguryeo's old nobles and military generals became more and more intense.
It's about to cause a huge commotion, so it won't be too long before Da'an returns to Chang'an."
Xu Xiaode nodded and said: "Very good."
When Xu Hui proposed to separate the family from the paternal family, Xu Xiaode did not have much resistance. Moreover, when Xu Xiaode was lonely, he could only live in the Heshuo area to protect himself.
At that time, Xu Hui's paternal lineage did not lend a helping hand, let alone ask about this matter. Now that Xu Xiaode has established a foothold in the court, his paternal lineage cousins are coming to ask him to provide some help to the younger members of the clan.
At that time, Xu Xiaode flatly refused. He had also heard this from his own mouth, and Lishan hid for some time during the New Year.
There was already a rejection mentality, and now that Xu Hui proposed to separate the family, Xu Xiaode didn't say a word against it.
Instead, they acquiesced in Xu Hui's behavior.
Xu Xiaode is not a strong person. If he were strong, he would not hide in Lishan.
Seeing that he was drunk, Li Tai had no choice but to ask his bodyguard to take him back.
Zhang Yang returned to Lishan Mountain. His wife was about to give birth in the next few days. Recently, she often stayed with her. She didn't even go to the workshop for several days.
Waiting for the child to be born in the next few days, I will prepare another flintlock gun.
The results of Taifu Temple were delivered to His Majesty, a bowl of tiny grapes, which really tasted like grapes when eaten.
Grapes can be traced back to the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. There was a coup in Dawan in the Western Regions. After the new King of Dawan came to power, he sent his son to the Han Dynasty to express his surrender.
At that time, the Han Dynasty still had the customs left over from the Pre-Qin Warring States Period. The king of the Western Regions thought that by sending his son as a proton to the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he could gain stability, and he also brought grape seeds and planting technology.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had long heard Zhang Qian talk about grapes, but at that time grapes had become a food only available in the palace. Ordinary people could not eat it at all, and they were not widely cultivated.
