Chapter 40 Treading Spring
According to ancient legend, when Cangjie created characters, the cold wind was rustling outside the house, ghosts cried and gods howled. When Lao Tzu was reciting the "Tao Te Ching" at Hangu Pass, the sky shook and the earth moved, and a big star fell on the big lake. When Confucius was teaching his first disciple under the weeping willows, colorful auspicious clouds appeared in the sky.
When Yun Zheng finished the first lesson, he paid special attention to the surroundings, as if there was no movement at all, and he couldn't help but complain: "The saint did something and it was thunder and raining. Why did he teach thirteen children in this desert of knowledge not even the wind?"
She shook her head and went straight into her bamboo house. The bacon immediately brought the water with great affection. She knew that Yun Zheng always had the habit of drinking water after he finished speaking.
Sir! Your value soared. The next day, I went up the mountain to plant barley, but found that it had been planted. Shanzi's father smiled and pointed to the ground, and said to Yun Zheng: "The kid can write his name."
Why can't he write? He taught him step by step, but the words he wrote were still like a dog climbing. The two words Cangshan looked terrible on the sand table. If he couldn't write them again, Yun Zheng would be ready to use his weapon to kill him today.
The eleven or twelve-year-old doll should have done some tricks on the teacher and lifted up girls' skirts. Now, if you can write two words, your parents will be happy to climb up the mountain in the middle of the night to plant the land for the teacher's house.
From ancient times to the present, the fact that parents hope that their children will be well has never changed.
The bacon stood proudly in front of the door and took the fresh mulberry leaves from the mulberry picker's hand. After checking whether it was clean, it poured it into her own basket and waited to add a meal to the silkworm in the middle of the night.
At home, there are always sensible children who take them out early and only bring them back when they are full. As for firewood, the Yun family never lacks that thing. Even the girls go to the river beach to play and pick up some beautiful stones to come back to honor their husbands, because the husband's family is preparing to lay a gravel path in front of the door.
Whoever has a garden in the entire village? If you dare to make the village fancy, you will be thrown into the well by the furious old patriarch. The husband's house will be different. Scholars always have some differences from farmers. When they see Yun Zheng planting flowers, the old patriarch strongly recommends the creeping walls and says that this thing is the best, and the walls are full of green and beautiful.
This is the benefit Yun Zheng has received in the past two days of teaching. On the third day, he left homework for the children early, and drove the ox cart to Dousha Pass. It would be impossible not to participate in the Xiao family's young master's outing.
Under Yun Er's instigation, the leek box was filled with three. Although the taste was very big after eating, the taste was absolutely wonderful. Yun Zheng rubbed a little dumplings, and the filling was frosting and sesame seeds. Yun Er didn't like it, saying it was sweet and greasy, but the good girl of bacon said that she could give it all to her to ensure that there was no left.
The wild vegetables were mixed with a plate. After steaming the bacon that the students respected at home, they were wrapped in rice dumplings and ate them for a lifetime. With four or five cooked eggs, Yun Zheng thought that his meal was as good as the royal banquet.
When I passed by Qingniu Stone, I happened to meet Lai Ba. A pheasant I had just shot and skinned it and gave it to Yun Zheng. No matter how I refused, I had to accept it.
"Yunda is a lucky star. Since I met you, life in the mountains has been much better. The supply of mountain goods is now in short supply. Liu Dutou said that many dried mountain goods were sold in beautiful bamboo baskets to Chengdu for a high price."
Yun Zheng looked at Lai Ba's excited face and was also happy for the mountain people. As long as he could communicate with the mountains at the bottom of the mountain, life would be much better. Lai Ba no longer hunts himself, but instead collects mountain goods from mountain people in more remote places and sells them to Liu Dutou. There are indeed no fools in this world. The honest Lai Ba can become a second-hand dealer. He hid in the grass like a wild dog, but now he dares to walk on the mountain road with great roar. This is the convenience given to them by Liu Dutou. Yun Zheng believes that in three or five years, Lai Ba will forget how frustrated he was when he was holding his daughter for medical treatment.
No matter so many, the life of the mountain people was much better in general, and there was no need to care about trivial matters. After saying goodbye to Lai Ba, Yun Zheng's Niucheng slowly drove into Dousha Pass. Under Yun Zheng's reluctance to give up, the doorman guarding Dousha Pass seemed to have seen an old friend when he saw Yun Zheng, and he shouted loudly from afar.
"Long time no see you enter the city. There is a flower party in the city today. The courtesan from Dali Country has opened specifically for the Liang family's silk and satin shop. It looks so beautiful."
Two Chenshan medicines were handed over: "Say less, you see that there is white foam on the corners of your mouth. This is Chenshan medicine dug out from the mountains. It is rare in spring. Peeling and eating them to clear the lungs."
Mending put away the yam and threw half of his bag of food onto the ox cart, saying that it was the caravan that he had just been in trouble, and he was a soldier to eat food. It was useless to ask for these things. He said he was like a good person, but the golden seal in front of his hair could not be covered.
When I arrived at the door of Xiao’s house, I saw several mule carts parked there, the most conspicuous of which was a cart. In this era when the prime ministers were riding in ox carts, it was very difficult to see a real cart.
Xiao Wugen was in front of the carriage and showed his attentiveness to the people in the carriage. When he saw Yun Zheng arrive, he glanced at him in disgust and continued to talk to the people in the carriage.
Yun Zheng didn't care and sat on the ox cart with a smile and whispered to Yun Er. Suddenly, he heard a familiar woman's voice coming: "My sister hasn't congratulated Brother Shi on entering the county school, and she will definitely become a member of the immortal list in the future."
This should be the lady of the Liang family who sells silk. Yun Zheng clasped his fists and said politely: "I didn't know the difficulty of studying. I said nonsense. Miss Liang should not laugh. If you want to enter the county school, you have to find another 199 classmates."
Miss Liang's smile was still very beautiful, and her nose wrinkled slightly, looking very playful. She was not alone today, and there was a little girl wearing a green shirt beside her. For some reason, the woman in green raised her head high and held her nostrils to Yun Zheng.
"This sister's nose hair is so long!" Yun Er lay in the basket, looked at the nostrils of the woman in green in awe, grabbed the bacon's shoulder and shook it hard, "I just said that there will always be someone's nose hair longer than the clan leader's grandfather. If you don't believe it, look, the sister in green in a green in a long way."
The woman in green whistled and got into the mule cart without saying a word. She probably had no shame to come out again. Miss Liang was shocked and immediately laughed. After a while, she straightened her waist and twisted Yun Er's fat face and said, "This is a short-skin protection. What are the nose hairs there? You little devil arranged people, do you know that it makes sense that they get angry with your brother."
