The book was not finished in the end. Li Sanzhu, Li Changshan and his son agreed to discuss it together when Li Changan Muxiu came home.

Li Qiusui was so listless, but to be honest, she was fine with a few words, but she really couldn't do anything to get her to grab a pen.

Vernacular writing is easy to understand, and it is easy for farmers who are actually farming to accept it. How many literate farmers are there?

When it is written, it must first go through the eyes of a scholar-bureaucrat in the imperial court, not to mention the gorgeous rhetoric, which is beyond reproach, but at least the writing is smooth and the concept is clear.

There is no rush for this matter, and the specification and structural format of the writing need to be carefully considered.

It is best to go to the bookstore to look for books that record farming, so as to understand the level of agriculture in the current era.

When he thought of it, he did it. Early the next morning, Li Qiusui excitedly went to the bookstore in the town, searched around, and found a few books similar to the almanac records which crops should be planted when the solar terms change.

When I got home, it was rare to give up an opportunity to practice supernatural powers. I lit a lamp and boiled oil to study carefully all night.

These writings are very general, and they don't even clearly indicate the differences in the climate of the regions where the crops are grown. For example, the difference between the southern land and the northern land is huge. Can the crops grown be the same?

Books that do not meet the expected agricultural records at all.

Li Qiusui didn't give up, and finally waited until the day when Li Changan should take a rest, and said the night before that she was going to pick him up.

Li Sanzhu and Liu Shi knew that this girl wanted to go out to have fun, and the way to the county was familiar, and Zhao Da was calm, so there was nothing to worry about letting him follow.

……

Early in the morning, Zhao Da came over to set up a mule cart, and when he met acquaintances going to the county town along the way, he took them with him.

The county town is as lively as ever, and you can hear the yelling of small merchants before entering the city.

The mule cart of Li Qiusui's family was registered with the county government, and he was entitled to enter and leave the county freely.

After buying the books, they had to wait for Li Changan to go home together. People from the village came to the county town to either buy or sell something. They couldn't wait for their brothers and sisters, so they dispersed as soon as they entered the city.

Li Qiusui was rushing to find books, so he naturally went straight to the most famous bookstore in the county.

She had been to this bookstore before, and it was Li Changan who brought her here at first, bought paper, pens and ink, and also bought a book.

"Miss Li!"

It sounded familiar.

Li Qiusui has a reputation in the past, he is Fang Qi's servant in Songyuan.

"When did Miss Li come to the county seat? Did you come to the study to read or buy books? My son is here too, what a coincidence!"

It's a coincidence!
Linshan County is not a big city, and there are only a few places you can go when you go out, so it is reasonable to encounter them.

But why are you so surprised?

At this time, Li Qiusui also saw Fang Qi who was talking with the shopkeeper of the bookstore, and the other party nodded slightly to her.

Before Li Qiusui could respond, the other party looked away first, and Song Yuan ran over to speak, "...Young Master also said to take me to Lijia Village, but a few days ago, when I was not free, I went with Jiang County Magistrate , I wonder when I will have the opportunity to go with the young master again."

Li Qiusui looked away and talked to Song Yuan, "Go if you want, you don't need to look for opportunities. The family is busy, and there is no one to leave the orchard, and the next season's crops will be planted on the field. I am afraid that the hospitality will not be neglected."

Song Yuan was overjoyed when he heard the first sentence, and just wanted to agree, but the latter sentence was obviously not welcome, shouldn't he say that he is familiar with it and then he can say it freely?

Understand the polite words that others say, and euphemistically express the meaning of not making trouble.

Song Yuan was puzzled, "Then, the day after tomorrow will be August and a half, and it will be pomegranates. Can the girl give us two more? No, it's okay to sell two..."

For a few pomegranates, Song Yuan can go alone, and his family doesn't need to recruit people to entertain them.

Li Qiusui readily responded, "Okay, if you have free time in the afternoon, go and get two! My parents may not be at home, I have to wait for the academy to finish school, and I will go back to Lijiacun in the evening. Can you find them at home?" It is also possible to find Hongying in person."

"I'll wait until Ms. Li is at home tomorrow. By the way, are you buying books? What kind of books are you buying? I know the manager of the bookstore well. Please ask him to help you find it faster."

There is really no place to go to pass the time in Linshan County. In the past two days, Song Yuan and his young master have been running to the bookstore frequently.

Talking lightly and deeply, everyone is not familiar enough, so Li Qiusui found a random talker, "I just bought some pens and inks. Thank you! I just read it casually."

Song Yuan didn't take it seriously, but he was warm-hearted and talkative, he had a good impression of Li Qiusui, and he wanted pomegranates from his family, so he had nothing to say.

His son made a gesture to leave, Song Yuan hurriedly bid farewell to Li Qiusui, "Miss Li, let's make an agreement, I will go to Li's Village to find you tomorrow."

Li Qiusui nodded in agreement.

The master and servant left over there, and Li Qiusui began to look for books.I don't want to pursue any writing ideas, but I can find a book with more comprehensive agricultural records for her to refer to the current development of agriculture in this dynasty.

I ran through all the large and small bookstores in the county, but I found a few books that recorded farming, but none of them met my wishes and were worth learning from.

Li Changan still needs a while after school, so he simply went to take a look at the newly bought house.

It was the first time that Zhao Da bought the house and Li Qiusui went to see it. The blind grandparents had nowhere to go, so they lived in the house with an elderly couple to help watch the gate and clean the yard.

The two-entry house is not too big and old, but the location is good.If there are people living in it, there will be a trace of smoke and fire, and it is still tidy.

When Li Qiusui came, Zhao Da led the old couple who were guarding the door to greet him.

The blind grandparents came with them, and called Miss Li Qiusui like the couple who guarded the door.

He is not his own servant, so Li Qiusui hurriedly asked people to get up, and asked politely if he was still used to living here?There is a need to directly say polite words such as you are welcome.

I heard Zhao Da say a few words about the girl's appearance before, but she has been hanging her head since they met, unable to see her facial features clearly.However, the grandma who can always keep an eye out for her bad eyesight, she just watched from a distance and is also dexterous in her work. I heard that she often took the family's products to sell to rich people. She must be timid and afraid of strangers because of the Zhao family. His character should be generous.

Li Qiusui looked over from the corner of his eye and didn't keep staring at him.

It was already evening when Li Changan finished school, Miss Xiao Chu was not at the female husband's house, Li Qiusui was waiting at the house, and Zhao Da went to pick him up.

……

Hurry up and hurry up, it's dark before I get home.

After dinner, the family sat around the stone table in the courtyard to cool off as usual.

Li Sanzhu knew that Li Qiusui was busy looking for books on farming these two days, so he told Li Chang'an the ins and outs.

After all, Li Changan opened his eyes after reading the book, and suddenly understood the impact of writing the book on his family.

Li Sanzhu glanced at Li Qiusui, thinking that he still wanted Li Changan to write it, so he said, "I heard that the writing is finished, let's go through the eyes of the court lords first, it will be good for you in Chang'an to get involved in the imperial examination in the future. Your eldest brother Kai Mengwan I really can't read many books, because he is the eldest son, and he will inherit most of the family business. Knowing two characters is enough. As for Chang Lei, his temperament and thoughts are not on reading and reading, so let him write books. It’s embarrassing. Xia He and Sui Sui are both girls’ families, and it’s enough to be safe and happy for a lifetime. A big name like writing a book is too popular, but I don’t need it. I can't bear such a reputation."

Li Changan will take the entrance examination for children next year, and first show his face in front of the officials who are educated. This is a good thing in Li Sanzhu's opinion.

What he said was reasonable, and Li Changshan, Li Changlei, Xia He and Liu Shi all nodded in agreement.

Li Chang'an was standing next to Li Qiusui. She was sitting on the stone bench, looking at her fourth brother helplessly.

She is alone, strong and lonely, but she is no better than the five people over there.

Li Changan smiled slightly, quickly pinched Li Qiusui's two little buns wrapped with pink hairbands one by one, "Sui Sui is right, this book is written by elder brother and father, and second brother can also sign on it."

Li Sanzhu wanted to speak, but he heard Li Changan say again: "Just like what dad said, if I do the publicity work of writing a book, and if I pass the county examination next year in one go, people will still think we didn't rely on it." Really good, there is no reason for people to gossip. Besides, next year will end, and there will be no time to review the book. How can I find time to write a book? Unlike my father and brother, I really have two hands in farming. I only help when the farming is busy. You can do whatever you want Do it. You have to squat on the ground every day to write a book, at least plant a crop of crops by yourself, otherwise in the future, people will ask three questions and don’t know, just waiting for others to reveal the old story.”

Li Changan blinked at Li Qiusui, Li Qiusui's eyes lit up, and he didn't care about him pulling his hair anymore.

His father and elder brother just don't care about how much benefits can be brought by reading books, how to maximize the benefits, and they want to put the credit on Li Chang'an.

It's just that the family business is getting bigger and bigger, and it's inevitable that there will be bullies like the Zhao family again, so capable people are needed to support the appearance, and Li Chang'an, who is the best at reading and looks the most promising, is undoubtedly the best candidate.

"Yes, yes, the fourth brother is right. The reputation of a scholar is the most important thing, and the world cannot be deceived! But he is a scholar, and he is too late to study. How can he have time to squat on the ground and plant crops? That is the job of father and elder brother."

Li Changan said again: "Anyway, this matter is not in a hurry. Father and elder brother are both veterans of growing crops, and they have written down some experience in raising seedlings in fertile land. Help organize and polish. We don’t want to surprise anyone with literary talent, let’s explain the main points clearly.”
