Li Shimin

Chapter 2 Master Li Xuan
……

Zhenguan two years.

In early October, it was sunny.

With the completion of the autumn harvest, the Tang Dynasty was up and down, so the Li people were full of joy.

At this point, after two years of famine, the grain tanks of ordinary people's homes can finally store some grain.

The world is a scene of joy.

……

The sun is rising, and the golden sunlight shines down, dispelling the chill of the autumn morning.

Lijiazhuang is located at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, beside the Ju River.

In the entire village, there are only about [-] households. In this area, it can be regarded as an ordinary small village.

Of course, this is the opinion of the people in Lijiazhuang.

In the eyes of outsiders, Lijiazhuang is considered a backward, poor and barbaric small mountain village.The villagers are a bunch of rough guys who can only move their fists, extremely barbaric.

Therefore, no one would come to Lijiazhuang unless there was a major event.

And the people in Lijiazhuang are also happy and leisurely.People outside are very cunning, if you are not careful, you will be easily deceived and suffer a lot.

In the center of Lijiazhuang, there is a square about one mu in size. The surface of the square is made of smooth porcelain rolled by stones.

However, at the center of the drying yard at this time, a new big house was rarely built.

Early in the morning, the house was neatly filled with more than a dozen children, ranging from five to teens.

At this moment, each child is holding a book in their hands.

Although it is a book, the workmanship is extremely rough, many pages are uneven, and even the binding is made of thin twine.

The handwriting on it is also twisted and crooked, and it looks like it was copied by hand.However, every child lowered their heads, solemnly, and read aloud with full concentration.

"Winning a cow and giving back a horse, if you go and don't come back, it's not a ritual."

"Knowing how to repay kindness, being romantic and elegant, and not repaying kindness is not an adult."

"Be loyal to the king, and respect to the father. Learn from etiquette, and teach without asking."

"Abandoning one's father to serve as a teacher, respecting the same as one's father. Be careful with your words and correct your appearance."

"Be kind and filial, don't be greedy for evil things, don't be deceitful, and be honest with your heart."

……

"The way to teach children is to always make yourself cautious, never speak out, and never lose money in deeds."

"He can't jump over the fence, he can't know things, he can't laugh when he is poor, and he can't bully when he is sick."

"He can't take money, he can't invade, he can't touch strong, he can't bully weak."

…………

Lang Lang's child's voice came out of the house, surrounding the entire Lijiazhuang.

Every passing person in Lijiazhuang heard these voices and couldn't help turning their heads to look at the village school in the middle of the drying yard, their faces full of relief.

Immediately, in the depths of his eyes, his face was full of pride.

The children of these rural folks, one day, will be able to sit in a school and learn to read and write like the children of rich businessmen and nobles in the city.

"Brother Dazhu, my little master must be a son of a big family, otherwise I wouldn't have such a scholarly question!"

"That's natural. You may not know that my kid has learned a thousand words in the past few months... a thousand words, even Shi Xiucai from Shijing Village with a population of hundreds of households outside may not Know so many words!"

"That's right, I've met Shi Xiucai too, he certainly doesn't know how to write so many words!"

"You say that if things go on like this, these boys in our village will all become scholars when they grow up in the future, and they can also manage ten miles and eight villages, and even become officials?"

"Shitou, what do you think, anyone can be a master official, you have to ask a university student!"

"You're a fool. I heard that the magistrate of Lantian County next door doesn't have much knowledge! Otherwise, why did the magistrate of Lantian County come to our Lijiazhuang this year to find a young master and study?" How to farm?"

"Huh? Really, the magistrate of Lantian County doesn't have the majesty of a lord at all. He brought so many people around the four-acre field of the little master, but he watched it for several days!"

"This proves that the magistrate of Lantian County is a good official. You didn't realize that since the little master came to our Lijiazhuang, according to the farming knowledge taught by the little master, the yield of all of us has at least doubled! In the past, our fields produced a maximum of two shi per acre of grain, but this year it has reached four shi per mu!"

"Hey, brother Zhuzi, although we are stupid, we are still sensible in such a big matter. The little master must be a person of great ability!"

……

half an hour.

"Brother Zhuzi, maybe these brats in our village can really walk out of Li's Village and become very capable people under the guidance of my little master!"

"Everyone knows the skills of the little master. As for what will happen to those boys in the future, it depends on their good fortune. How can we rural people who don't know a single word have the qualifications to predict their future." Dazhu's man said.

However, when he mentioned the little master, deep in Da Zhu's eyes, he couldn't help flashing a trace of worry.

Of course, he knows what the little master is capable of.

That's a real talent!
However, the origin of the little master is something that makes them worry.

Maybe it has something to do with what happened two years ago.

However, for the sake of these boys in his family, even if the little master is really involved in that matter, Li Jiazhuang will also try his best to protect the little master!
What's more, the little master has also been in Lijiazhuang for two years. For such a long time, he has always lived in seclusion, with a good heart, and he is by no means a bad person.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to the mountain first, what's the use of talking about this every day!"

On the side, Li Tiechui, who had long been tired of listening, was speechless.

"Hey, let's go, into the mountains!"

"At this time, the beasts in the mountains are all fat and thick. If you kill more, you can give the children more health this year!"

"If you're lucky, bring back a blind bear and give it to the little master, the best one is the little master..."

"Hey, Shitou, I didn't notice it. You have learned how to give gifts. Do you want me to take care of your son more?"

"Haha, who of you doesn't want to?"

"However, Master, do you need me to send wild animals?"

"Forehead!"

……

Saying that, a group of thick men, all laughing heartily, went up the mountain.

The family has enough food this year, and as long as there is no war in the coming year, they will definitely not go hungry.Now, my boy is still learning to read with his master, and he goes up the mountain to hunt some prey, so he doesn't have to worry about food and drink in winter. This is a beautiful thing that I dare not even dream about.

Thinking about it, all the men in Lijiazhuang are full of strength.

……

Time passed slowly, and the sun soon came directly above the sky!

In Lijiazhuang, there is a newly built small courtyard in the east, with exquisite and elegant decoration.In the east of the courtyard, there is a young pear tree planted.At this moment, Li Xuan, the little master among the people, was lying comfortably on the recliner under the pear tree with a full face.

Li Xuan, dressed in plain linen, was holding a plain white porcelain teacup, taking a sip from time to time, with an expression of enjoyment on his face.

"Whoo~"

"Comfortable……"

Next to it, there is a small round table, and on the small round table, there is a pot of teapot emitting white steam.

Further to the east, there is a small round well with a height of half a person built of bluestone blocks, covered with a log manhole cover.

The slightly hot sun shone on the body, warm and very comfortable.

Although it's just noon, Li Xuan's work in Lijiazhuang has basically been completed.

The rest of the time is free to arrange.

Or go down to farm, or go up the mountain to hunt.

Or, travel to the mountains to play in the water, go into the mountains to collect herbs, and fish in the Juhe River to catch turtles!
The only pity is that some cooking seasonings are not available because there are no raw materials.

Otherwise, pure natural wild thousand-year-old turtle soup, roast wild boar, beggar chicken, Yellow River carp...

"Fuck~"

Thinking about it, Li Xuan felt that his mouth was full of saliva, and he could hardly suppress it.

After finishing the hot tea in his hand in one gulp, he stood up and walked outside.

After two years in Datang, the most unbearable thing for Li Xuan was cooking without peppers and vegetables in winter.

Therefore, after the autumn harvest, Li Xuan directly surrounded half an acre of field in his own field and built a big shed!I want to try to see if I can grow a vegetable greenhouse in winter and be self-reliant!

Familiar with the road.

Walking into Tianzhong, Li Xuan directly pushed open a wooden door, the light in front of him dimmed,
After the line of sight got used to it, a flat piece of land appeared in front of his eyes, which had obviously just been cultivated.

In the middle, there are also neat rows of field ridges.

The soil above is still somewhat moist.

Obviously, not long ago, it was watered.

It took Li Xuan half a month of work to complete the cultivation and construction of this half-acre field.

Every day, Li Xuan checks it routinely.

In winter, all farm work in mountain villages is basically in the shutdown stage.Except for hunting in the mountains, he was completely free.And this half acre of land is the subject of Li Xuan's experiment this winter!

Greenhouse, if it can be planted, the little days will be considered complete!
