Huang Chengyan asked in surprise: "What? Are you going to the prefecture and animal husbandry?"
Cai Yue sighed and said: "Degui gave her little sister to Liu Xin in order to be able to resume her post. It has been more than two months, but there is no movement at all. I can't rest assured, I want to go and see her. , By the way, ask her to find out how things are going."
Huang Chengyan was even more surprised, and said: "Degui gave the little girl to Liu Xin! I heard that Liu Xinhuang is horny, how can Degui push the little girl into the fire pit! No, I can't let you fall into it again. You can't go!"
Cai Yue pushed him hard, and said, "What are you talking about? How old am I, Master Zhou Shepherd will give me an idea? It's just that I'm even more worried after hearing what you say, my younger sister is too old. Young, I am alone in the prefecture, and I don't know what Liu Xin has ruined. Alas, she's just a child! Besides, you can't make any ideas, you can't just watch the Cai family sink. "
Huang Chengyan was robbed of her by her, and said in a whisper: "How could Degui remember that he had sent his little sister to Liu Xin? It's really hard to figure out."
Cai Yue sighed and said: "I don't know where Liu Xin heard about the beautiful appearance of the little girl. As soon as he arrived in Xiangyang, he asked Degui about the little girl."
Huang Chengyan suddenly became proud and said, "You always say why I made A Chou like this. If the little girl had dressed up like this at the beginning, would these things still happen?"
Cai Yue pinched him severely in irritation, and said, "When is the time, you still gloat!"
Huang Chengyan grinned his teeth and endured the pain and said, "In fact, the matter was not that serious. I think Liu Xin didn't mean to give up Degui."
Cai Yue turned his head and looked at him angrily, and said, "Didn't you just say that Degui's situation is not good? How come you have changed your mouth now!"
Huang Chengyan said loudly, "I, didn't I look away for a while."
The next morning, Liu Xin rushed back to the prefecture and animal husbandry. He had good news and couldn't wait to tell Ma Yun.
With the memory of Liu Xin and Ma Yun from later generations, it should be very easy to produce a stirrup, which is not a high-tech item, but how to install the stirrup on the saddle. Craftsmen have thought of many ways, either easy to fall off, or difficult to control. After unremitting efforts, a solution was found today, which is to use a long wooden handle with a copper skin on the outside to connect the stirrup and the saddle together. In Liu Xin's words, this is how the stirrups and saddles can finally be combined organically.
Liu Xin got the news and got on the horse for a trial ride in person, feeling very satisfied. With the sharp tool of stirrups, building a powerful cavalry force in Jingzhou from now on is no longer just a dream. Such good news is naturally to be shared with Ma Yun. Liu Xin hurried to the academy, but was told that Ma Yun had left after the lecture. Liu Xin knew that she must have rushed back to feed Ma Fan, so he also hurriedly returned to the prefecture, the news made him so excited.
As soon as he entered the mansion gate, before he could speak, Ma Yun said, "Husband, you just came back, Cai Jue's family is here."
Liu Xin was even more happy, and said, "Today is a really good day, one happy event after another, just in time for them to take Cai Jue back. This saves a lot of trouble."
Ma Yun shook her head helplessly, and said, "Why is it so easy. It's her sister and aunt and niece who came here. They just came to see her."
Liu Xin couldn't wait any longer, and said repeatedly: "Walk around, as long as it's from their family, there is always an opportunity. Let's take a look first."
Cai Yue's mother and daughter came to visit Cai Yan, and Cai Yan is now Cai Yan's god-sister, and the task of receiving them is naturally handed over to Cai Yan. Liu Xin and Ma Yun also came to the small courtyard. Unexpectedly, the courtyard was already very lively. Not only were they here, Bian Yu and Zhu Qian heard that Cai Jue’s family was coming, they thought they were going to take her home, and they all ran over to see her off and sent Liu Yu and Liu Rui off. Brought over too. At this time Liu Yu had already played with the little girl from the Huang family, A Chou, and was still arguing about something.
Liu Yu is also four years old this year. Liu Xin and Ma Yun are busy, and they rarely take him out. There are no children of the same age in the house. He used to play with Liu Rui's ass, but now Liu Rui is one year older, so there is no interest in playing with him, at best, fooling him. The little girl from the Huang family is also four years old this year. Although she looks a little ugly, there is not much difference between beauty and ugliness in the eyes of children. The two children are about the same age, but they have played together.
What Cai Yue cares most about is Cai Jue's situation and Liu Xin's attitude towards Cai Hao. It's not easy to ask so many people, so I have to talk with Cai Yan, Bian Yu and others. Liu Ruiyi listened quietly to her mother, one year old and one year old, and now Liu Rui looks like a pretty lady. No one noticed why the two children would argue.
It turned out that Huang Chengyan was very fond of her daughter and taught her to read from a young age. A Chou, the little girl, is indeed smart. She already knew a lot of words when she was two years old, and she has read a lot of books even now. Liu Yu was taller, so A Chou was called his brother, but A Chou was conceited and he didn't look down on children of the same age. Liu Yu must be called his sister.
Liu Yu tilted his head and thought for a while and said: "We are stronger than one. If you are stronger than me, I will call your sister."
A Chou stretched out a little finger, scratched his nose, and said, "Compared with girls, I am not ashamed or ashamed."
Liu Yu patted his chest and said, "Then what do you say?"
A Chou rolled his eyes and said, "I will ask you a question. If you get the answer right, I will call you brother."
Liu Yu said without hesitation: "Okay, you can ask."
A Chou stunned in his heart, put his hands behind his back, posing an old pedantic look, and said: "Listen well, I'll ask you whether the sun is near us when it just rises, or is it near us at noon ?"
Liu Xin just noticed that the two children were arguing, and was about to separate them, but when he heard A Chou ask this question, he couldn't help being surprised. Isn't this a debate between the two children? Even Confucius can't answer this kind of question. Where can Liu Yu answer it? Liu Xin immediately looked at the ugly little girl with admiration, and couldn't help looking up and down the little girl. After just one glance, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Bian Yu has also read a lot of books and knows the allusions of the two children's debate. Although this is just a joke between the children, she still sweated for Liu Yu. It was Ma Yun and Cai Yan who heard this, smiled at each other, looked at Liu Yu together, and nodded at him encouragingly.
With the support of the two of them, Liu Yu really shook his head and said: "On the same day, we are at the same distance from the sun. Only in summer will we be closer to the sun, and in winter we will remember that the sun is farther away."
A Chou pointed his hand to the sky and said, "Then I ask you, it’s almost noon now. The sun is like a disk, but the sun you see in the morning is the size of a wheel. Should the sun be bigger in the morning? Closer to us?"
Liu Yu said without hesitation: "That's because when you look at it in the morning, there are big trees and houses in front of the sun, so it looks bigger, but at noon, there is a vast sky behind the sun, so it looks smaller. It just feels different. In fact, the sun is always the same size."
A Chou thought for a while, and didn’t quite understand what he meant, so he asked, “Then you say, why is the sun shining on the body hotter than the morning sun? Is the noon sun closer to us? ."
Liu Yu said triumphantly: "That was when the sun was coming directly at noon, so it felt hotter. Forget it, anyway, you don't understand it anyway, call your brother as soon as possible."
In fact, in the same day, the distance between the earth and the sun is different in the morning, evening, and noon, but the distance between the earth and the sun is too far, and this small change is almost negligible.
Actually, Liu Yu didn't really understand this complicated knowledge. That was when Cai Yan came to ask Ma Yun some time ago. He also asked about the debate between the two children. It happened that Liu Yu heard it next to him. Liu Yu already had a strong thirst for knowledge at this time. After hearing Ma Yun's explanation to Cai Yan, he didn't quite understand it. He pestered Ma Yun and asked her to tell it again. Even so, Liu Yu still didn't understand, but his memory was so good that he actually memorized these words abruptly.
There is also a lot of other knowledge involved. First of all, it must be based on the "heliocentric theory", so Cai Yan can understand it. After all, Liu Yu's age is too young. Although Ma Yun has been told since he was a child that the earth revolves around the sun, it is still a bit difficult to understand this knowledge. As for Ah Chou, he is still at the stage of "geocentric theory", and he doesn't understand these principles anymore. He turned his head to the side for a long time and said, "I don't know if you are right or not, and I will ask my father when I go back."
When everyone saw her serious look, they all laughed.
At the moment when the two children were arguing, Liu Xin had already quietly pulled Cai Yan aside, asked Cai Yue’s mother and daughter’s intentions, and asked Cai Yan to talk to them later and see if they could let them Cai Jue took it back.
Cai Yue had been very nervous just now. Now that she saw her daughter and Liu Yu were not arguing, they were just arguing about these things, relieved, only then found that Liu Xin and Ma Yun had come, and hurriedly said a blessing, said: "The lady has seen an adult. The little girl has nothing to do, please forgive me."
Liu Xin waved her hand and motioned to her not to be polite, and said: "It's always inevitable for children to bump into each other together. Moreover, they just have different opinions on things. It's not a big deal. The girl is very clever, and I look pretty pleasing to the eye. what's your name?"
Cai Yue leaned forward and said, "The little girl Huang Shuo, whose nickname is Yueying, was ugly, so my husband and I called her A Ugly."
Liu Xin and Ma Yun looked at each other and called out in unison: "Her name is Huang Yueying?!"
