Chapter 133 Good people are not rewarded

Lan Ling stood up and picked up the sieve for drying melon seeds and sowed them a few times. "They were carefully selected. They are all so plump. How many days have they been drying? They are almost dry. If you don't touch them today, they will be in your field next year."

It has to be planted to full capacity, right?”

"Hey." He had to find an opportunity to grab the sieve back. The seeds of the three watermelons were all in it. They were going to be confiscated. The hope of eating watermelons next year would be shattered. He raised his hand and pointed at the eaves, shouting: "Aliens!"

"Don't be surprised. I have done this trick so many times and there is nothing new." Lan Ling was unmoved. He looked around and said to himself: "I have to find a bag to put the melon seeds in..."

"Hey! Can you be a little more ethical? Are you imitating a bandit by taking away other people's things without permission?" Seeing that Lan Ling didn't look like he was joking, he was worried, "Sister, how about you leave some for me? It's hard to save up."

A few of them, you take them all, it’s so unjust.”

"I can't believe you." Lan Ling picked up the sieve and stood up and walked towards the study. "Let's be clear. I didn't say in advance that you were allowed to plant it. I secretly hid so much. What I said fell on deaf ears."

"No idea, really, I don't have any plans." After entering the study, he quickly poured a glass of water and handed it over, "Quick, drink some water first. The sieve is very heavy. Come on, let me hold it for you first." He stretched out his hand towards the sieve.

go.

"I miss you so beautiful." Lan Ling took the cup with one hand and turned around to protect the melon seeds in the other hand, "Why don't you plant so many seeds to see? Stop being a fool. Do you want it? Don't think about it."

"Stir-fry, stir-fry with seasonings and dry sand. It's fragrant, crispy, and delicious." It's a lie. He just said it casually. He said with a playful smile: "Let it dry for a while, and fry it in a special pot for you to eat. First,

Give me."

"I've never heard of this way of eating, and you're just slandering me when you say it," Lan Ling flipped through the melon seeds with a mischievous smile, his big eyes blinking provocatively, "Okay, it's dry now.

I'll see if you fire me. It's still early, you can fire me for a day."

It's hateful, so hateful. I want to have the skills of a second wife. How can I allow a woman to be so arrogant? It's a pity that I am past the good age for practicing martial arts and I am at a disadvantage when using force. I can only outsmart you. "Don't be angry."

." He lowered his face and pretended to be cold and angry.

"Do it, do it again." Lan Ling put the sieve on the table and held it in his arms. "First, tell me, how did you get these? I'm very curious."

"Give me the land, someone gave it to me." He then told the story of how he went to Nanlin Garden to eat watermelon that day, only changing the story of stealing melon seeds at the end to collecting them openly, "It's not nonsense. It's a real thing."

"Yes," Lan Ling nodded and laughed strangely, "You're telling the truth. I'm a little curious, why can one melon in Nanlin Garden produce so many seeds? My family also got the seeds from there.

How many seeds can be harvested from a melon still has weight in my heart, could it be..."

Seeing that her will was loosened, he rushed over and snatched the sieve, hugging it tightly, "I'm a woman. What do you know if you just eat and don't plant seeds? I've never seen them tearing apart their new varieties."

"Haha," Lan Ling stared at me for a long time, nodded and said: "My lying ability has improved, and I can't even tell the clues from my eyes. He must have secretly pulled a car back after others left. I don't know yet."

you."

"Go, slander!" So what if I know? I ate it in my stomach. I have no evidence for you. I got up and took the melon seeds back to the wing. I put them in a big box and locked them tightly before returning. "I don't grow many kinds. I will plant a few acres secretly and plant them next year."

Once the melon is ripe, isn’t it for you to eat? This thing relieves heat and heat, and also has beautifying effects..."

"You're so good at making excuses? Don't blame me for not reminding you when you get fined. But you're not worried about money now," he said, rolling his eyes at me, "Let the matter of melon seeds go, today your family has such trouble.

Things, I’m afraid it won’t be possible to go to the villa for half a month, right?”

Yes, it was not the right time to fight this person today. After all, it was Qin Yu who took care of it. It would be unreasonable to leave Xie Bao behind and go to the villa to escape the summer heat. If I took him along, it would be a bumpy ride. I'm afraid my bones would be broken even more.

I can wait and say, "How about you go alone if you feel too hot? I won't be able to leave for half a month. If you don't like it, ask my wife to accompany you. I can take care of the house alone."

Ying had been busy for a long time, so she went over to cool off and relax. If the second daughter and Lan Ling hadn't been able to get together, she would have really wanted to make the second daughter feel comfortable for a few days.

"I just want you to go and have nothing to do with your wife. Forget it, I'll stay with you for a few more days and wait until the matter is over." Lan Ling clapped his hands helplessly, "You have to be busy today, so I won't bother you.

Let’s go to the papermaking workshop. I want the female shopkeeper to go to your toilet water workshop and learn from your sister-in-law, is that okay?”

"No problem, I'll tell the Fourth Brother tonight." Lanling prefers the art of management. Since the Fourth Brother can't dig it out, it would be a good thing for me to improve the leadership quality of the papermaking workshop. "That female shopkeeper of yours needs to be sorted out."

Several times, my eyes have grown on top of my head, and no one is looking into them."

"I have offended you twice. You are so stingy that you don't even hold grudges." Lan Ling stood up and patted me, "My people will not be merciful when it's time to clean up, but you don't have the right to say anything.

Well, I don’t want to say goodbye to your wife anymore. I’ll take good care of my health first, haha..." He said that he went out in a familiar way, and now that he is familiar with it, he didn’t even have to give it away.

If you have enough protection against your shortcomings, no wonder you have such a wicked woman in your hands. Think about the domineering look of the female shopkeeper of the papermaking workshop. Lan Ling is used to it.

After estimating the time, the second wife should have almost taken care of Xie Bao's injury, so she went over to ask for help. The Wang family had a large yard, and they cleaned it on time on weekdays. They cleaned it up quickly, and Xie Bao should have been placed there.

I was assigned to the courtyard. After I passed there, I assigned two servants to wait on me.

From a distance, I saw Er Niangzi and several servants of the hospital discussing under the big tree at the entrance of the yard about the beating of one of their own people in the morning. They were all laughing as happily as dogs. It's so annoying, running, kicking, etc.

He kicked the second lady, her feet hurt. "You're full, but you should stay far away. You're so close and so loud. You're being raised in the courtyard. Aren't you afraid that people will be angry if they hear you?"

While I was teaching a few troublemakers a lesson, a voice came from my feet, "Brother Wang, don't blame me. I'm right here. I'm not raising you in the yard, and I'm not angry either."

"Ah?" After listening to the voice, I realized that Xie Bao was lying in a shady place under the tree. It had been bandaged and tied up a bit like a mummy. "Ah, haha. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. These killers love to fight gangsters.

You're always like this," he turned around and scolded: "Just do whatever you have to do, without even blinking."

"No wonder. No wonder. I'm bored alone and can't move now. I just invited them over to chat. I was praising the second wife for my good skills." It seemed that Xie Bao wanted to move his hands but failed. He smiled helplessly.

He smiled and said, "I'm a newbie here and don't understand the rules of this big place. I offended my sister-in-law this morning. I apologize first and please convey it to Brother Wang. Don't be offended."

"No, there is a misunderstanding. Brother has already clarified it. Yunzhang should never mention this matter again." It seems that this is a broad-minded person, and he does not mean to take offense in his words. Qin Yu has a good eye for friends. It is worth spending some effort to support him.

"I don't have to worry about registering for the provincial examination. I also sent letters to Du Feng, and my brother did it for me. My brother can barely speak in this capital, handing in papers and other things is easy, so Yun Zhang just concentrates on recuperating.

I have no other worries.”

"Young Master, seeing how relaxed you are, why don't you sign up to take the imperial examination..." The second lady and I are very familiar with each other on weekdays, so I took advantage of these words to make a joke.

"Get out!" Everyone said, "I don't know how to read, so why are you signing up to be stabbed? The pig slaughterhouse in front of the village is short of manpower, can you sign up?"

Everyone burst into laughter, and the second wife patted her forehead with a silly smile, "Forget it, hehe."

Seeing that they were chatting happily, there was no need to comfort them. "You guys should take good care of Brother Xie. If something goes wrong, just jump off the top of our slope and you won't have to come back!" He handed over to Xie Baogong. "Don't worry, Yunzhang, just ask for anything.

Just treat it as if it is your own home and don’t see anyone outside."

"Oh, that's right." Xie Bao twisted his body, "My little brother stayed at the Yunjiazhuang for a while, and got along well with the host. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back like this. Can you send someone to tell me, don't let him go?"

People are worried.”

"It's a small matter," he turned to the second wife and said, "You were the first to fight, so this matter falls on you. Ask them clearly, go over and have a good talk, and get the money you should pay for the accommodation from the accounting office."

"Don't worry, little Marquis, I'm relieved. Let's go now." After asking for Xie Bao's address, he turned to leave.

"Slow down," Xie Bao called to the second lady, "Don't say he was beaten, just say he accidentally rolled down the slope and fell. The injury is not serious. Don't let others worry about it."

"I know!" Er Niangzi ordered and left.

I moved a bench and sat in front of Xie Bao, chatting with him about the daily life. Firstly, it was a new face and I needed to get familiar with it; secondly, I wanted to inquire about Qin Yu’s current situation and ask about Liao You’s style to satisfy my curiosity.

Xie Bao grew up outside the territory since he was a child. Although his family background is well-educated, he has a bold personality and is very talkative. From his words, we learned that Qin Yu was both wise and brave. Although there was no large-scale battle in the army, there were constant small frictions. Every time the friction escalated,

Qin Yu was able to command well and teach his opponents a lesson to calm down. Just before Xie Bao came to Chang'an, he had a fight with Tubo. Due to a military conflict caused by a small dispute between the Xinjiang people, the opponent's cavalry team of thousands of people just

He didn't run away, he captured them all. Xie Bao also participated in the battle, proudly showing off his success in killing three people and capturing one person. He also revealed that Qin Yu had made arrangements, and he would soon be transferred back to Chang'an with the good news.

"Tubo has become more powerful in recent years, and has occupied a good position, and has been intruding on the border." Xie Bao said worriedly: "If Brother Qin returns to Chang'an, there will be no one in Shancheng, and the Tubo thieves will start to stir up trouble again."

"Haha, don't worry." Hearing these words, Xie Bao couldn't help laughing. This Xie Bao really regarded Qin Yu as a famous general. Even if he has military talent, he is just a novice, relying on the well-equipped, tough and good soldiers of Guanzhong Prefecture to kill

There are just a few Tubo thieves. Now there are many strong generals in the imperial court, and the one who replaces them in the past will be no worse than Qin Yu. "Now the imperial court attaches great importance to the Tang-Tubo territory. Even if the generals are replaced, they will be experienced and famous generals. They will never be replaced."

It will be worse than Heiye. When you recover from your injury, brother will show you the military strength of Youwuwei. That is the first-class brave teacher in the world." To be honest, I have never come into contact with Youwuwei's brave teacher.

I have been dealing with a bunch of officers all day long. As the saying goes, if a soldier is as good as a soldier, a general will be as bad as a nest. The officers of the Youwu Guard are all fierce and capable, and the soldiers they lead will never be bad.

After hearing my introduction, Xie Bao said excitedly: "Thank you, Brother Wang. I have heard the name of the Twelve Guards a long time ago, so I must see it." When he said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "If the imperial court had been able to suppress the country with a large army, why would my Xie family be like this?

." Thinking of his separated parents, his sadness was palpable, "If Brother Qin hadn't led the team to kill that day, I'm afraid there would be no bones left. It doesn't matter, I'm alone now. I have no worries. After the disaster, my family's wealth was scattered.

I am determined to join the army, and I wish I could kill all the Tibetan traitors, and I would hate to destroy my family with one blood. If it weren't for Brother Qin's persuasion, I would not go to Beijing to take the provincial examination."

This was a ruthless character who gave up all his property just to kill Tubo people. It is estimated that not much of the robbed people were left, so he simply gave them away. He enjoyed killing people for the rest of his life. "Siye is a man who cherishes his talents, and does not care about them.

I can't bear to see Yunzhang being buried in the dark. If I can become an official this time, I will definitely be able to show my great ambitions and help our country to wipe out the Tubo troubles." Looking at this posture, Xie Bao has Qin and Du families to help, and his official career will be smooth sailing. First of all, hats off.

Give me one. As for destroying Tubo, I don't care. But this man is too strong. If he wants to be an official like this, he will offend a few people in the future, and he can't get too close to him.

"Haha." Xie Bao smiled and said nonchalantly: "Brother Wang praised me. I know what kind of material I am. Someone like me charges on the battlefield and dare not say that he is brave. At least he is not afraid of death.

As for the official career, it may not be a safe one, and a bad temper is hard to change."

There is hope, at least they have self-awareness, which is better than most people. If you work hard, you may not be able to achieve something. I digressed from the topic of being an official. I asked about the customs of Youyou and the fighting methods of the Tubo people. These are all

It's a topic that interests me.

The two chatted happily, but the second lady had already returned to her home in a hurry, saying that the people in the Yun family village were worried and wanted to take Xie Bao back to recuperate.

"What? Are you afraid that my Wang family can't take care of the wounded?" He and Xie Bao looked at each other and said dissatisfied with the second wife: "Go and give me a hard word. There is no reason why the Wang family will not carry them out after they are healed.

It's up to Yunzhang to decide whether to go back or not. It's not the banker's turn to come and ask for someone."

"But I'm sorry. An accident happened at the guest's house. It's the host's responsibility, and I can't refuse it." The second lady limped over in embarrassment, and was in a dilemma.

"What are you talking about? The road is bumpy and bumpy, what should I do if something goes wrong?" There are all kinds of weird things. It costs a lot to take care of a wounded person. If a banker wants nothing, why is he rushing to take responsibility? Pull him over and don't leave.

Human life. "Go, just do what I said. If you still don't believe it, just do it."

"Wait a minute," Xie Bao stopped him again when he saw the second wife was about to leave, "I came to take the exam because my name was called by the Ministry of Etiquette. The master is also afraid of official investigation. Besides, when the Yun family village was in trouble, I also saved him.

A few people came out, so it’s inevitable that they would worry about me. Don’t embarrass these dealers, just send me there if it doesn’t work. This medicine is easy to try, and I’ll be able to move in a few days.”
