Time flies, and with the end of the drought, time seems to speed up. I no longer feel sad every day. When it comes to the harvest season, I am not very happy. This year, the country's grain production has decreased, and the imperial court still issued food subsidies.
The fleet to buy grain never stopped. However, most of the grain was transported to the south, and there was another flood in the south. Fortunately, doctors from all over the country were mobilized, and there were enough herbs to prepare for the rainy day, so the plague did not break out in the south.
The Zhou family’s grain has already been harvested. The fine grains are purely watered. They don’t grow much, and most of them are coarse grains. This year, they have grown vegetables. Although they still lose money, they also control the loss to one-third. Not bad.
Boss Zhou held the account book, on which was the amount of coarse grains, "Mother, most of the country's crops this year are coarse grains, and sweet potatoes are the most. Look, do our family raise some chickens, ducks and geese in the village?"
Zhulan closed the account book, "This is the advantage of being an official at home, not afraid of selling, not afraid of being tricked."
Ordinary people don't dare to make such a fuss.
Boss Zhou was stunned for a moment, "Our family has today, all thanks to dad."
Zhulan smiled and pushed the account book to the boss, "You can be the master of Zhuangzi's affairs. You have managed the drought this year very well. Mother is very pleased."
Boss Zhou was affirmed, and his voice was much louder, "My son has been taught by his father and mother today."
In the past, let alone managing hundreds of people, he didn't dare to enter the county town, and sometimes he stumbled when talking to the shopkeeper.
Zhulan picked up the tea and took a sip, "Tomorrow is the provincial examination, and I don't know how your fourth brother is doing."
Zhou Laodao: "The fourth brother didn't write a letter a few days ago. He has already set off for Pingzhou. Mother, there are four younger brothers and sisters here. They will definitely take good care of the fourth brother. Don't worry."
Zhulan put down her teacup, "Changzhi Township Examination is the last big event of this year, it's alright, you should go get busy too!"
Boss Zhou picked up the account book, "Mom, then you rest."
"Um."
In Pingzhou, Changzhi was lying on a rocking chair, with a book covering his head, and fell asleep flickeringly.
Su Xuan looked back and gave a light push, "Hurry up, it's windy outside, and there will be a provincial exam tomorrow, so don't catch a cold."
Changzhi took down the book on his head, pressed the center of his eyebrows, "You came back from Zhao's house."
Su Xuan reached out to take the book, and then helped her husband's arm, "Well, if it's not because of my father, I really don't want to go."
Changzhi patted his wife's hand, "Thank you."
What Su Xuan could do, she had to endure it, the Zhao family didn't have bad intentions, but the family had a lot of big thoughts, and she was tired of dealing with it.
Changzhi stretched his waist, "We'll go back after the result is out."
Su Xuan misses her daughter and son, "Yes."
The capital, the racecourse, Mingyun and Mingteng, Liu Feng, and some from Ran's family, seven of them came to ride horses together.
Ming Teng likes horse riding the most. There is a competition in the distance of the racecourse. Ming Teng wants to go, but it is a pity that Ming Yun suppresses it mercilessly.
Ming Yun said with a cold face, "Be honest with me."
Ming Teng was stunned, especially when he heard the shouts in the distance, Ran Xun interrupted, "Brother Zhou, are you being too careful?"
Ming Yun said indifferently: "I brought them out, so I have to take them back properly."
He could see clearly just now that there were a lot of tricks in the competition, and some of them were jerks who couldn't read well, they really dared to do it, if they fell off the horse, the consequences would be disastrous.
Ran Xun was also a little frightened by Zhou Mingyun. This man was too serious, and he blinked at Ming Teng, implying that his brother couldn't help him.
Mingrui answered, "Brother, we may have been out for a long time."
Ming Yun calculated the time, and it was indeed two hours, "Okay, let's go home."
It was indeed getting late, and after leaving the racecourse, Mingyun and the brothers of the Ran family separated, and only took Liu Feng to go back together.
I went back in a carriage, and the racecourse was a little bit off, and it became lively after driving for a while, and the hawkers kept shouting.
Ming Teng touched his purse, "Brother, stop later and buy some shortbread for my uncle and brother.
"
With a smile in his eyes, Mingyun agreed, in the family, only Ming Teng treats his little uncle as a younger brother, and the only ones who can get money from Ming Teng are his little uncle and little brother.
The carriage stopped, Ming Teng lifted the curtain of the carriage, frowned and listened to the woman blocking the carriage begging for help, and then there were several young men who looked like thugs chasing after him.
The woman was wearing a long green dress, and she looked panic-stricken, which could really arouse people's desire for protection.
Ming Teng watched with relish, lying lazily by the window of the carriage, his eyes full of sarcasm, Qingfeng and the servant had already guarded the carriage.
Ming Yun didn't even move, Ming Yun said to the puzzled Liu Feng, "Drink tea."
Liu Feng was stunned, picked up the teacup, looked at Ming Rui who had squeezed over to watch the play together, and said in a low voice, "Don't you care?"
Ming Yun raised his eyebrows, and said to Ming Rui, "Make room for Liu Feng."
Ming Rui smiled and gave way to his future eldest brother-in-law, "Liu Feng, come and sit."
When Ming Teng heard the elder brother's voice, he actually became impatient, and shouted at the thugs, "Hey, how are you walking on catwalks? You can't catch them so close, let me count them, and the four thugs actually caught Less than a weak woman, interesting, interesting."
When Liu Feng heard this, he looked at it carefully, and was completely stunned. Indeed, he was not stupid. Seeing that the woman's clothes were not messy at all, he pursed his lips and his cheeks were a little cold.
The thugs obviously didn't expect such a result, and they went forward to arrest him, and the weeping girl's eyes widened.
Mingrui said to Qingfeng: "Arrest them all, as well as that woman, here is very close to Dali Temple, send them to Dali Temple together, force the girl, who is still in the capital, must be arrested."
Liu Feng is the emperor's man, and has been following Mingyun since then. Zhou's family has many young servants with good skills, but the thugs don't look good, and they want to run fast, but it's useless.
The girl in green was dumbfounded. She wanted to break free, but was clamped tightly by Qingfeng.
Ming Teng jumped out of the carriage. Dali Temple has his future father-in-law, and he wants to send it in person. He waved his hands, "Brother, you go back first, and I'll be back in a while."
Ming Yun hummed, and regardless of the voices outside, he said to the boy driving the carriage, "Let's go."
Mingrui had already sat back to drink tea, and looked at his future brother-in-law with a smile on his face, "It would be nice to have more knowledge, my grandma said that these are all tricks."
Liu Feng was a little silly, "Shuren still talks about this?"
Mingrui nodded, "The key is my dad. My dad has been tricked a few times, and my grandma broke it up and gave it to us. There are too many beauties and femme fatales."
Ming Yun didn't take it seriously, but Liu Feng was greatly impacted, especially Ming Rui wanted to teach Liu Feng a lot of beauty routines, so that Liu Feng would not be tricked in the future.
The next day, Zhou Shuren came back, "Guess what is the last name of the girl Ming Teng sent yesterday?"
