Brother Wen sorted out the matter, but didn't figure it out clearly. He looked at the signature of the book mentioned by Wang Hua--

The five virtues of Taoist.

What's the thing? Brother Wen thought for a moment and thought of the five virtues in "The Analects of Confucius", which is... "Gentle, kind, respectful, frugal and kind"?

Brother Wen looked at the four words "Five Virtues and Taoist Man" and compared the five Confucian virtues. Good guy, the names of his second brother and his sister are hidden in it.

...It turns out that he has become a thief!

The ones who were far away in the capital were not just the piglets who tried to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors!

His father couldn't see such an obvious clue, and he even wrote a letter to scold him!!!

Wang Shi'an, Wang Shi'an, you are really a father!!!

But when it comes to her own sister, even though Brother Wen felt that she was scolded for being wronged, he did not refute his father in the reply letter.

Forget it, one blame is also the one blame, and two blame is also the other. If you carry too much, you will get used to it. Your waist will no longer be sore, your legs will no longer be numb, and you will not have to walk. After holding your energy, you can even beat the sandstorm!

The letter Wen Ge'er wrote to Zhu Houzhao on the way was about eating, drinking and having fun. After settling down in the northwest, he began to write something else.

For example, in the northwest, it is said that children's faces change whenever they say they change in June. The weather in Ganzhou is not only changing in June. It is windy and rainy in winter and spring, and the weather is dry, so it is not new.

Commander Li divided the military camps and households to them, so they were not greatly affected by the sand and dust. Walking further north, even houses may be scraped away in many places, so they even chose to dig up caves like ancient humans, and the whole family settled in the caves.

Those bamboo houses and wooden houses in the south cannot be built here, and they cannot withstand any unstoppable wind and sand when they are built.

Sometimes even relatively safe summer and autumn will bring sandy winds.

This is the Hexi Corridor that is most suitable for the development of agriculture in the northwest.

Therefore, there is no planting in this area in winter and spring, not because the people here are lazy, but because the climate is really unsuitable.

This is something that human power cannot change.

Wen Ge'er also took Xie Dou and the others to the cave for a few days. To be honest, it was not too comfortable, because the cave could not be dug too big, and he was afraid of landslides. There were no glass doors and windows at this moment, and the lighting was very poor. Living in it was more difficult than living in the imperial prison in the capital.

There is a reason why Zhang Hai and the others wanted to run away after just two years.

Even the noodles here are only willing to eat during festivals and holidays. Usually, they stew whatever they have in the pot. It doesn’t matter whether they taste good or not. If you have enough food, you will be able to work.

Men go to the fields and serve labor, women weave cloth to feed poultry and livestock, elderly and children go out to grazle sheep and cattle, or mow grass and prepare for wasteland, all the family have to work, and whoever picks on the mouth will fall.

Who should be the ones who can eat white noodles every meal?

Even if you, a nobleman, can eat good dishes and drink good wine every meal after you come, it is far less comfortable than coming to the capital.

It's normal to look down on me.

Brother Wen also introduced Zhu Houzhao a special food, ant eggs.

After getting in touch with the students of the society, Brother Wen realized that after the weather warmed up, they would go out to find an ant hole together, dig up and take away the white ant eggs inside to make teeth sacrifices.

In order to follow the sustainable egg stealing route, they also passed on a very strict egg stealing principle: don’t hurt the ant queen, and after taking it, you must put it back and let it continue to grow ant eggs!

People who can't even bear to eat white flour will naturally not be able to eat meat. The surrounding wilderness becomes them.

A treasure land for "foraging".

Have some delicious food and can play with everyone together, why not do it!

Brother Wen used to think that only the south would have the habit of eating insects, but now he found that as long as the materials are scarce to a certain extent, even ants that can't even see meat can be smashed to make some meat smell.

At first, the students were embarrassed to let Brother Wen know. Seeing Brother Wen excitedly following them to dig the ant hole, they shared with Brother Wen with various ways to eat ant eggs.

Actually, there is no need to make it. Pick some wild spices and beef and mutton oil into the pan and stir-fry it will be fragrant!

The only thing that every household raises cattle and sheep is that it is not short of is this oil. Every time they slaughter cattle and sheep and sell it, they can leave a lot of cattle and sheep oil for themselves!

With such a pot of oil, everything you eat is delicious all year round!

Moreover, the weather is warm in summer, and all the wild vegetables and spices that can be eaten in the wild can come out!

The little carrot heads were all full of energy and told Wen Ge'er about their unique way of eating, and enthusiastically invited Wen Ge'er to eat fresh fried ant eggs that were released from the pot!

Brother Wen tasted it and it was quite fragrant, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

How can we say that everyone likes to eat strange foods randomly? It’s just that there is nothing to eat, so we make the ingredients we can find into food that can be eaten in different ways.

It is said that "the granaries are full and etiquette knows." Without a full granary, how can we pay so much attention to the conditions?

Brother Wen told everyone about the eating history of ant eggs.

It is said that when Emperor Zhou was having a meal, the imperial chef below would prepare more than 100 dipping sauces for him. Among them, his favorite dipping sauce was called "钱酸". Simply put, it was the sauce made of ant eggs!

So more than two thousand years ago, Yizijiang entered the country and served the delicious food of the emperor's dining table!

Emperor Zhou said it was OK after eating!

Now, that is a good thing that can be used as a tribute!

When Brother Wen'er's mouth speaks, he can tell the dead to live; when he cooperates with his head full of messy documents, he can convince everyone.

Even the adults were stunned. The ant eggs that the children ran out to take back still have such a long history? Although it was not a big deal, after meeting with others every day, they had a few more topics of conversation: Do you know, the ants dug by our little bastard were tributes more than two thousand years ago! What was the name at that time... The squid was called, and they didn't recognize the words, and they couldn't even read them smoothly. They were particularly profound! The young man said that this was actually ant jelly!

Others often make uninformed amazement when they hear it, which greatly satisfy everyone's desire to share.

I just like to see others being shocked!

Brother Wen knew very well that children would not listen to the hardships of life in the local area.

Even if Zhu Houzhao is a child who is smarter than an ordinary child, it does not mean that he is willing to listen to the long-standing Northwest suffering. If you tell him these things, you have to mix them into interesting things and let him read them unconsciously.

Brother Wen quickly wrote a long letter to Zhu Houzhao, and then dismantled the other people's letters and wrote a reply.

Only Lao Qiu and Yang Tinghe's letters were not easy to deal with. They had too strong learning ability, so he fooled them a few letters and began to give them questions.

Lao Qiu is fine, just to explore some theoretical issues, and it is not difficult for Brother Wen to deal with it.

Yang Tinghe is too much. He didn't know where to get the local data and set questions for Wen Ge'er to do. What economics materials analysis questions are considered to be for him to understand.

It's white.

As Wen Ge'er looked at it, she remembered the fear of being tortured by Yang Tinghe with statistics after Qian Fu and others.

Adhering to the idea of ​​sharing blessings and being difficult to share, Brother Wen extracted the title and discussed it with Wang Jiusi and the others.

How could a great scholar, even if he couldn't even do some economics analysis questions?

I won’t practice more now, how should I solve the real problems you encounter in the future?!

Come on, share our wisdom together!

Wang Jiusi and others:??????

Mom, I miss you, why don’t I resign from my post and go home!

To be honest, before we passed the Jinshi exam, everyone was full of enthusiasm and felt that as long as we passed the Jinshi exam, life would be easier.

At the beginning, not all of them really wanted to follow each other, but most of them wanted to follow Wen Ge'er. It seemed that it was not good for them not to follow him, and in the end they gritted their teeth and followed him.

The days when I came to Ganzhou were even more miserable. There was no bustling and bustling like the capital, no restaurants and restaurants that could enjoy themselves, only endless work.

They are already very skilled in boiling water and chopping wood to feed chickens, and teaching and educating publicity and training.

If their family members knew what their lives they had lived in over two months, I would feel so distressed!

Unfortunately, there are no family members here, and they all live together with their peers. If they want to complain about hardship and fatigue, they have to worry about whether they will be ridiculed by others.

Isn’t this just training?

I don’t know what happened, but after such days, I have been inexplicably feeling that a pot of stewed wild vegetables and coarse grains can be eaten, and I don’t feel tired if I help do some farm work within my ability.

They are all weak scholars who have been studying hard on their desks all year round, and now they have exercised their bodies quite strong!

Now they go to the fields every day to see the well-grown potato seedlings, and then take turns to attend a few classes in the society. They always feel an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

But for scholars who have been studying hard for more than ten or twenty years, it is really a bit difficult to learn mathematical economics from scratch.

The professionalism is not right!

But Brother Wen was so enthusiastic that they were not embarrassed to refuse, so they could only discuss and study the materials analysis questions given by Brother Wen with Brother Yang.

If you want Brother Wen to have a good relationship with Yang Ting and other official seniors, you can’t always follow Brother Wen to visit him, right?

Just analysis and calculation, they just learned it!

In fact, Brother Wen didn’t just silence her head and then everyone learned it together.

After nearly a year of getting along, he has basically figured out the preferences and talents of the same year. If he really can't learn it, he will not force the other party to study hard. If he is interested, he can just listen.

Brother Wen took Yang Tinghe's letter and was very satisfied. He summarized the discussion contents of everyone and wrote them back to the capital.

Although Brother Wen, the brother who was a brother, did not expose Wang Shoujian and the others' vests, the matter was soon revealed in the capital.

Because Aunt Yang found out that her youngest son was actually rich!

Compared to Wang Shoujian and Rang Jie'er's tight-lipped mouth, Wang Xiaosi started to buy food, drinks, and play when he had money, and he couldn't hide it at all!

Where did this kid get the money?

What parents are most worried about is their children to learn bad things.

Aunt Yang asked after asking questions but couldn't find out the result. In the end, she picked up a feather duster in anger, and then learned from Wang Xiaosi what the three young people had done.
