Chapter 545 Wheat Harvest
When Kangxi came, the water in Fourteen Fujin's head was almost running out. She sniffed and carefully observed Fourteen Elder Brother's face, her heart clenched tightly.

He dared to beat and kick her in front of others, but when he returned to the mansion, he might abuse her.

On a hot day, Fourteen Fujin shivered.

A group of people followed the Empress Dowager Kangxi to the side of the road. With a cup of tea in his hand, Kangxi looked at the prince and Fujin who were sweating on their foreheads. He smiled and did not mention the matter between the fourteenth elder brother and the fourteenth Fujin. , but said, "I let you plant wheat and harvest wheat, not just to make you suffer. After the wheat is harvested, everyone writes an article about your feelings and gains. If you write well, I have a great reward."

The princes and Fujin "..."

What insights and gains, how did Kangxi's methods of tossing people come out one after another.

Seeing his son and daughter-in-law staring blankly at him, confused, Kangxi was in a good mood, he smiled and said, "The weather is fine these few days, so don't rush, harvest slowly, and after the harvest is over, put the wheat in an ox cart When they are taken to Changchun Garden, I will check them one by one, and if they successfully complete the task assigned by me, they will be rewarded."

After drinking the tea in his hands, Kangxi clapped his hands and said, "Okay, it's still early, hurry up and harvest the wheat. I took a look, the old Shisan and Thirteen Fujin are the fastest, and the others are looking at their husband and wife. It's a young man, be quicker."

After Kangxi finished speaking, he went to Changchun Garden with the Queen Mother with his hands behind his back.

Through this incident, Kangxi discovered a phenomenon. If anyone made him unhappy in the future, he would vent his anger on these princes, raise them up hard, and never be soft-hearted when it is time to use them.

"I don't know how the emperor will reward them?" The queen mother asked curiously.

"Commendation, they are all masters of silver, and all of them are rich. I will reward them with a plaque when the time comes." The plaque written by Kangxi himself is of immeasurable value to ordinary people, but to princes , that is tasteless.

Kangxi's move is clearly trying to play tricks.

The Empress Dowager laughed out loud and said, "This is a very good move." Seeing Kangxi vomit blood with anger from those ignorant princes, the Empress Dowager was also very upset. Now that Kangxi is torturing the prince, she likes to hear it.

Kangxi and the Empress Dowager talked and walked, smiling very happily, but Yinxiang and the others were sad, especially Brother Shi, who was busy with mental work after physical work. When will such a day be over?
The tenth elder brother felt that Kangxi was simply scratching an itch with six fingers, but for the fourteenth elder brother who was interested in the throne, he felt that Kangxi's words had a lot of meaning, and asked the princes to make a fuss about Kangxi's intentions. Expressing one's own mind is worth pondering over.

Brother Fourteen was thinking about how to write an article at that time while walking into the wheat field. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Fujin Fourteen, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. Why did he marry such a stupid woman!

Fourteen Fujin tiptoed along beside Fourteenth Elder Brother like a little daughter-in-law, lest she would annoy him again, marrying a moody man made her feel very bitter.

Holding a sickle in his hand, Elder Fourteen intends to continue cutting wheat. Fourteen Fujin is very obedient and doesn't complain that he is tired. He is also ready to cut wheat while holding a sickle.

Brother Fourteen suddenly spoke out, his voice was as cold as ice, "Stop talking nonsense like that from now on, or don't blame me for being rude!"

Fourteen Fujin had a big sun on her head, but she was still frozen when she heard the words, she nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "I know it, I know it."

Fourteenth Elder Brother took another meaningful look at Fourteenth Fujin, his gaze was gloomy like a poisonous snake, Fourteenth Fujin held his breath and kept silent, so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe, he kept saying in his heart Buddha Bless Buddha Bless.

Satisfied with Fourteen Fujin's attitude, Brother Fourteen turned his head and continued to cut the wheat.

Regarding Yi Rao, of course he has shady thoughts in his heart, Yi Rao's face is so attractive, many men who have met her have dirty thoughts, and the fourteenth brother is not strong enough, and he is one of them.

But this kind of thought can only be kept in the bottom of my heart forever, even if he becomes the emperor in the future, it will be the same. Now the Confucianism of the Han family rules the world, and he can't do it by snatching his sister-in-law as a concubine, and he will be scolded by the world die.

So in this life, on the issue of Yi Rao, he can only envy Yin Xiang, even if he becomes the emperor.

Fourteenth elder brother quickened the movements in his hands, and got rid of all the idle thoughts about Yi Rao. Beauty, when he has a country, he won't be able to find any kind of beauty.

Fourteen Fujin's head was in a mess, Fourteen Elder Brother threatened her, she didn't dare to make a sound, she could only vent all her anger on Yi Rao, she was born with a seductive foxy face, she had a man and was already three years old. It's shameless for the mother of a child to hook up with other people.

The fourteenth elder brother and the fourteenth Fujin's thoughts Yinxiang Yirao didn't know, the two were cutting wheat in full swing, working hard, anyway, they were not interested in the throne, what was on their minds, they would write about it when the time came.

But recalling the situation just now, Yi Rao sighed, "Women, you still have to learn some kung fu for self-defense. This age is too unfair to women."

Yinxiang disagrees with this statement. Women are locked up in the back house to do housework and give birth to children. Men work hard outside to support women with a peaceful sky and a peaceful living space. Men do more than women Many, the natural status of men is higher.

But thinking about it, Yinxiang dared not say this, otherwise it would be another quarrel.

It took three days for Yi Rao and Yinxiang to cut all the wheat, and then moved them to the ox cart bit by bit, and pulled them to the sun-drying field. The wheat had to be threshed, which was worse than harvesting It's tedious and annoying.

What Kangxi wanted was not ears of wheat, but sacks of grains.

In this era, threshing wheat is a very difficult task. There is no machine and it can only be done by hand. Yi Rao has seen how other farmers threshed. , Some people use oxen to pull a big stone to grind the ears of wheat, relying on pressure to thresh.

Threshing stones by ox carts is the most advanced method. The princes Fujin all use this method. First spread the wheat evenly on the hard ground, and then the princes lead an ox, and the ox pulls a round stone. One person and one ox turn around on the wheat until all the straw and ears are flattened, and the wheat grains fall off naturally.

It was Yinxiang's first time to do this. He was wearing thin Xia Shan, a straw hat on his head, a piece of wheat straw in his mouth, holding a cow in one hand and a whip in the other, slowly turning around on the wheat go.At the beginning, the messy wheat straw was slowly and completely pressed on the ground, and Yinxiang walked more and more smoothly, and his pace became faster and faster.

Yi Rao was sitting under the willow tree by the side of the field. She was also wearing a straw hat, holding a willow branch in her hand, and was weaving a hat for the dragon and phoenix twins.

Yes, the two of Yinxiang and Yirao have been working all day these days, and the dragon and phoenix twins can't see the figure of Emiang Ama, so they miss them very much, and they also came today.

"Er Niang Er Niang, I want to ride a bull, I want to ride a big bull." Seeing Yinxiang swinging the cow casually, Hongdan shouted.

"When you grow up, ride whatever you want."

"When will I grow up?" Hongdan asked very seriously. He wants to do a lot of things recently, but everyone is using the word "grow up" to prevaricate him. He really wants to know when he will grow up.

Hua Hua laughed at the side. She was holding a small delicate white porcelain bowl with milk in it. While feeding Le Ling, she said, "Brother, don't worry, as long as you eat on time and are not picky eaters, you will be fine." It will grow up soon."

Hongdan frowned, not picky eaters?There are so many unpalatable dishes, how can you not be picky eaters, he will not be able to eat them.

Seeing that Hongdan was in trouble, Yirao burst out laughing. She put the braided willow hat on Hongdan's head, squeezed his chubby face, and said, "Go, go find Ama." Yirao said Holding Hongdan's hand, he walked to the center of the arena.

Seeing this, Le Ling didn't make a sound, and still sat on the small embroidered pier and sipped her milk. She didn't want to bask in the sun. Xiao Longlong said that the little girl must be white and tender to look good.

"Ama, Ama, I want to lead the cow, I want to lead the cow." Hongdan broke free from Yirao's hand, and ran towards Yinxiang with his calf, but the crushed wheat straw was too slippery, and he was immediately caught Slid to the ground and fell into the mud.

Yi Rao exclaimed, quickly picked him up, and asked anxiously, "Does it hurt? Did you fall?"

Yin Xiang also let go of the rein and ran over, shouting, "Dan'er, is there something wrong? Do you want to call the imperial doctor?"

Hongdan spit out the wheat straw in his mouth, patted the dirt on his body with his hands, grinned and said, "It doesn't hurt, don't be a doctor, Dan'er wants to ride a cow!"

Hongdan's strength far exceeded Yinxiang Yirao's imagination, seeing that nothing happened after a fall, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Yinxiang picked up Hongdan, let him sit on his shoulders, and said loudly, "Good boy, Ama will change a horse later, let's ride a big horse."

Hongdan became happy, laughing and making noise on Yinxiang's shoulder, very happy, and the clear and clear child's voice spread far and far.

Yi Rao shook her head and smiled, and sat back on the edge of the field. Judging by the posture of the father and son, it didn't look like they were working, but came for fun.

Hongdan's laughter stimulated Brother Fourteen. Although he has four sons, none of them are as clever as Hongdan's strong man, and his heart is full!
He must win the throne and become the most powerful man in the world, which makes Yinxiang feel heartbroken, and he can't be the only one who envies Yinxiang!
It took a week for Yi Rao and Yinxiang to thresh all the wheat, packed it in sacks, and then pulled it to Changchun Garden by bullock cart for Kangxi to inspect.

With Yi Rao as a strong laborer, the two of them made the fastest progress, and Kangxi nodded repeatedly.Ask the guards to weigh the sacks, ten mu of wheat, a total of fifteen sacks of wheat, one hundred catties per sack, and a total of fifteen hundred catties of wheat harvested in Yinxiang's ten mu of land, which is more than the one thousand catty that Kangxi asked for. That's five hundred catties more.
