Chapter 1491 Not an ordinary person
Zhu Qi showed a bright smile and said: "My mother taught me, and she asked me to take charge of this matter. I was a little worried at first, afraid that I wouldn't be able to handle it well. Since the third brother said it's OK, it must be OK. Third
Brother, could you please help me find Rizheng, the clan leader, and try to use this method to water the rice?"
"Okay!" Zhu San responded.
Looking at the younger brother in front of him, he suddenly remembered the days when he accompanied Zhu Qi to study.
At that time, everyone's hope for him was that he must learn something famous and make a living by his own efforts, so as not to drag everyone down in the future.
But I never thought that one day, this person who everyone "looked down on" would become everyone's glory.
Suddenly he started to look forward to it. Maybe one day, Lao Qi would be better than everyone imagined!
Zhu San is best at dealing with people.
"Is there an easier way to water water?" Li Zheng, the clan leader was a little confused. Since ancient times, they have watered by hand, and it has never changed.
Now, someone came over with a piece of paper and told them - I have a simpler method, do you want to try it?
Zhu San nodded and placed the plan in front of them: "This is what my seventh child drew. Look..."
Explain them one by one.
Compared with Zhu Qi's clumsy rhetoric, he is much more reasonable, clear and persuasive.
"As expected of a scholar, his brain is just different from ours!" Li Zheng sighed.
I think at the beginning, Zhu Qi was still a "fool", but after two or three years of studying, he actually became so smart.
No wonder those wealthy families always like to send their children to study. It turns out that reading can really make the brain smarter!
Zhu San also gave them an idea. Since there is a simpler irrigation method, then each household can no longer do its own thing as before. Instead, they should form an "irrigation brigade" and unify it according to the plan.
water.
In this way, not only can manpower be saved, but every household can water well in the shortest time.
In this way, after further discussions, the clan leader, Li Zheng, felt more and more that it was feasible and nodded on the spot.
After Zhu San left, the two of them were filled with emotion.
"You think, is it too late for us to send the boy at home to study?"
"His seventh child didn't read until he was more than ten years old. I think it's too late."
As soon as the patriarch finished speaking, Li Zheng shook his head: "It's different. His seventh child has been different from others since he was a child. It's just that we don't have eyes to see gold and jade, so we don't know what his 'difference' is for.
But look at the boys in our family, which one is not the same as others?"
Well, when the patriarch thought about it, it was really like that.
only……
He said: "Then...if you know how to read, you have to be like Lao Qi to be able to do it, right? I'm afraid it's hard to find."
"Even if he is not a Wenquxing like his Lao Qi, he still has to be like his eldest and second treasures." Li Zheng said, "Do you still remember the last time you saw his eldest and second treasures?"
Wearing a long gown that only scholars wear, he is polite and has a look that is different from that of a child in the countryside.
"Don't talk about Dabao and Erbao. They are their Three Treasures and Four Treasures. You saw them last time. They can already recite poems..." The patriarch sighed, "How old are you? They can walk and run."
I moved and started to recite poems. How can this person compare to others?"
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
That's right, not to mention whether those in their family who can run and jump can recite poems, even the big ones who can herd cows and run all over the mountains, none of them can recite poems.
They are both children, so why is the difference so big?
"Do you think it's because the wives they married are different?" the patriarch guessed, "Everyone married to a different wife, but old man Zhu liked to make mischief. He chose from thousands of choices and went out to choose one. When he was young, Zhu
Auntie is different from others, she is beautiful and elegant..."
"Aren't you particular about it? If you eat a little worse or dress a little worse, you will make a fuss, and even make a fuss with Mr. Zhu. At that time, everyone was laughing." Recalling what happened that year, Li
It was also a moment of emotion.
At that time, who was more optimistic about Old Man Zhu and his family?
The young daughter-in-law she married back was beautiful, but she was too "pretentious" and most people couldn't stand her.
Just because she was pregnant, she refused to work in the fields and tormented all the men in the family, including her father-in-law and mother-in-law.
In the end, there was no other way, and the two elders were separated from their home.
This mother-in-law is capable of giving birth to children. It is sad to give birth to so many sons, but Old Man Zhu also works very hard to support so many sons.
Before my eyes, this man is getting older...
Who would have thought that when someone gets old and their son grows up, they will start to make a fortune?
"Tell me, who is this Aunt Zhu?" The patriarch recalled, "Why can't I remember clearly?"
"Who remembers clearly? When Old Man Zhu got married, he only said that he was from the town. He didn't say where he came from specifically..." Li Zheng said, "But he let it slip later. It seems that he was in a certain big family.
I used to be a maid."
"A maid can be so capable?" The patriarch wondered, "Tell me, could she be the daughter of a wealthy family who committed some crime?"
Li Zheng thought for a while and shook his head: "It's not like that. Aunt Zhu was really particular about it when she was young, but she doesn't look like a rich lady. Her temperament is wrong at first glance."
As for what was wrong, Li Zheng didn't say anything, but the clan leader knew it.
Because when she was young, this woman loved to dress up, she had a charm that no one else had, and her behavior was also a bit frivolous.
However, this woman was also discerning and aggressive. There were no fools who wanted to take advantage of her, but she drove them away with a stick.
Zhu San didn't know that he made such a trip and made Li Zheng and the clan leader gossip for a long time.
As soon as he returned home, Zhu Ba hurriedly greeted him: "Third brother, how are you? What do they think?"
Ever since Zhu San went out, he had been uneasy, fearing that his ideas would be rejected by others.
It doesn't matter if I call you back, I'm afraid it will still be "ridiculous", which will be really embarrassing!
Not far away, Ye Yuran looked over with a smile on his lips.
Zhu Qi was walking around in the yard just now, like an ant on a hot pot, which made people want to laugh and feel sad at the same time.
However, she didn't say anything to comfort her, she just observed silently while doing things.
She told herself to give him more confidence!
Zhu San smiled and said, "They agreed, what do you think?"
"Really?!" Zhu Qi was surprised and confirmed again.
Zhu San nodded.
At this time, Zhu Qi was as happy as anything, and jumped up: "Mom, did you hear it? Did you hear it? Third brother said they agreed. Hahaha... they agreed to my irrigation plan!"
He ran to Ye Yuran, as happy as a child.
Ye Yuran smiled and stretched out her hand to touch his head.
At this time, he seemed to have grown a little longer, and she had to put her feet up if she wanted to touch his head.
"I heard you, you did a great job!"
A compliment made Zhu Qi unable to stop smiling: "Hehehehe..."
He felt that he had never been happier and happier before, and a different kind of sense of accomplishment filled his entire chest.
