Ma Yun couldn't help but admiring her son, smiling and joking: "Okay, son, when will you learn to be a hero to save the United States?"
Liu Yu was still just a child. He was worried that Ma Yun would be punished further. Now that his mother laughed, his grievances were wiped out. He said mischievously: "What saves the United States is clearly to save the ugly." They laughed at A Chou every day since the beginning of school, and today they were even more exaggerated. They even caught a mouse and put it in A Chou’s desk."
Ma Yun suddenly got goosebumps when she heard "Mouse". Thinking of this thing, she would even be scared to see it, but it was hard for the little girl A Chou to ask nervously: "A Chou will be terrified when he sees the mouse. Right,"
Liu Yu stiffened her small chest and said triumphantly: "Isn't it? If I hadn't helped her to get rid of the mouse, she would still be crying."
Ma Yun's face suddenly sank, and said: "It's fine if the mice drove away, why are you hitting them again?"
Liu Yu said aggrievedly: "Mother, you said that mice are a bad thing, eat food, and spread diseases. I chased it up and killed it with a brick. Then they scolded me and asked me to make compensation. I was angry. , I pushed them a few times, but I didn't use my full strength, because they didn't push."
Ma Yun knew that his son had been strong since he was a child. If he really beat those children, he might have something big, but he believed Liu Yu's words, so he nodded and said, "Anyway, you can help the weak and act bravely. My mother is still very happy, but when you hit your classmates, yours is wrong. If you don't go to class these days, you are taking care of your younger siblings at home, or you go outside with your mother.
Liu Yu didn’t even think about it, so he chose to go for a walk with Ma Yun. His younger brothers and sisters have aunts and others to take care of him. He might as well follow Ma Yun to go out for a long time. In fact, Ma Yun also knew that today’s matter was not Liu Yuyi. Personal fault, if you blindly scold him and keep him in the house and look after him, I am afraid it will be counterproductive. Although Liu Yu has not yet reached the stage of rebellion, he has begun to have his own ideas. Give him a chance to choose, too. Respect for children, how can a child of this age be uninterested, Liu Yu naturally chose to go out with Ma Yun, and Ma Yun was also willing to take him to see the outside world.
Early the next morning, Ma Yun took Liu Yu into the carriage and escorted out of Xiangyang City under the escort of Dian Wei and a team of personal guards. Although he interrogated Yu Ji yesterday, he vowed that it would rain within three days, but Ma Yun is still worried. She wants to go to the outskirts to see what is going on in the farmland.
Out of Xiangyang City, the fields are full of working people. Working at sunrise and resting at sunset are their unchanging rules of life. The drought in the ground is not as serious as imagined. Although it has not rained, it is still water conservancy. The facilities have played a huge role. The growth of the wheat seedlings has hardly been affected, but the labor intensity of the farmers has increased significantly, because the ditches can only lead the water from the river to the fields. The next watering of the crops requires the farmers to use manpower. Come to complete,
Liu Yu usually doesn’t have many opportunities to go out. At most when the weather is good, he can play with his younger brothers and sisters in the garden of the State Shepherd’s Mansion. On the way, everything feels fresh when he sees it, so she always asks this question. Then, suddenly, Liu Yu clapped his little hand, pointed at the field, and said excitedly: "Mother, look at that horse, it's so strange, with two curved horns on its head."
Ma Yun looked in the direction of his fingers. It turned out to be a water buffalo. He couldn't help but laughed out with a "pouch", and immediately felt a little sad. Both herself and Liu Xin were too busy. Usually the children can only stay in the house. At this time, there are no literacy pictures and other things. Liu Yu is eight years old, and he doesn’t even know the buffalo. It seems that he will spend more time with the children in the future.
After not going far, Liu Yu suddenly became anxious and said, "Mother, look, look, how did those people pull up the crops in the field?"
Ma Yun took a look and smiled: "They are not plucking crops, but weeds in the ground. These weeds will compete with the crops for water and fertilizer and affect the growth of the crops, so they must be plucked, Yu'er, uncle farmer. We don’t work hard,"
Liu Yu tilted his head for a while and said, "Thank you,"
Ma Yun reached out and touched his head, and said with satisfaction: "Yes, they are very hard. The rice and steamed buns we eat are inseparable from their hard work, so we can't waste a little bit. There is a poem you have to remember. It’s noon on the day of hoeing, sweat drips into the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard work.”
Liu Yu blinked his eyes and listened carefully as Ma Yun finished reading the poem, nodded seriously, and asked, "Mother, did you write this poem?"
Ma Yun shook her head and said, "I didn't write this. I listened to an old farmer singing, so I wrote it down."
This poem was written by Li Shen, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. When he was young, he did feel sympathy and indignation at the peasants who worked all day long without having enough food and clothing. However, after he became an official, he has gradually transformed into a person who spends time and enjoys pleasure. Later generations are well-known by women and children, telling people to be thrifty and cherish the hard-won work results, but his author's character is too bad, so Ma Yun is reluctant to mention him, let alone take this poem as his own Have,
After a half-day inspection, she found that agricultural production has not been greatly affected. Ma Yun was relieved a lot. What made her even more happy was that on the way back to the city, a few dark clouds floated in the distance, and the sky gradually darkened. It's raining,
As soon as Ma Yun stepped into the backyard, the raindrops fell down. When Ma Yun's mother and her son were back home, Qiao'er hurriedly greeted her and said, "Madam, there are guests at home."
Liu Xin led the army to Luoyang. Except for Jushou, Tian Feng and Dianwei, no one else would come to the house. Ma Yun was a little strange, so he asked, "Guest, where are the guests?"
Qiao'er smiled and said, "It's A Chou here."
Ma Yun said angrily: "A Chou isn't here for the first time. What's all the fuss about,"
Qiao'er yelled, "A Chou is a little different this time,"
While they were talking, a cute little girl walked out of it and shouted at them: "Brother Liu Yu, you are back,"
Liu Yu touched his head and asked puzzledly: "Who are you, I don't know you,"
The little girl said embarrassedly: "I'm A Chou,"
Liu Yu said in surprise: "You are A Chou, why are you not ugly anymore,"
A Chou replied shyly: "People are not ugly in the first place,"
With the rapid development of Xiangyang City, many taverns and teahouses appeared in the city. When eating, there will be diners there. After a long drought, the business of the tavern has not been affected, but has become more prosperous. Three cups and two light wines were consumed, and the diners talked more.
A fat man listened attentively to the sound of rain outside, turned his head and said to the diners who were sitting on the same table with him: "Pharaoh, you said that our lady of the state shepherd was unsatisfied, she was unsatisfied yesterday. I just said it must rain within three days, and it will happen today."
Before the diner named Lao Wang had time to answer, a thin and tall man on the next table had already caught the stubble: "No, I said, Mrs. Zhou Mu is a goddess. Yesterday, you didn’t see it, several feet tall. She leaped up to the stage of her, and we happened to be there at the time, and we all knelt down in fright. Master Zhou Mu can marry such a lady, that’s a blessing that we have cultivated in a few lifetimes."
Hearing this, someone next to him became unhappy. An old scholar stood up and said: "The Master Zhou Mu has built so many ditches, but it doesn’t rain for a few months, the crops in the ground can still be harvested. I see today. When Mrs. Zhou Mu went out of the city, she must not be sure if it will rain today. Only then did she go to the ground to see that she is not a god, or Master Zhou Mu has a vision."
The fat man couldn't help but sneered: "What do you know, Mrs. Zhou Mu is going to the field to see when it rains. Haven't you seen it? Not long after she returned to the city, the rain came down. Obviously she controlled it. Okay, when it rains, it not only ensures that the crops are watered, but also prevents yourself from being drenched in the rain. Maybe the Master Zhou Mu’s idea of building the ditches was only after listening to the wife’s words."
Only then did Lao Wang find the opportunity to intervene: "Let me tell you that Mrs. Zhou Mu is indeed a god who descended from the world, haven't you heard that the "Shen Yu" who cheated on the street yesterday can't be tied with the thick twine. Staying with him, he was overpowered by a small magic weapon by his wife."
The old scholastic blushed and wanted to make some theories with them. The proprietress of the tavern walked over and said, "You all have nothing to do if you are full. The masters of the state and herds are the ones who can make a comment, let's talk about it. Now, Master Zhou Mu is a descendant of a great ancestor, the son of a dragon, whether his wife is a god or not, it’s a matter of debate. As long as we people can live a good life, the most important thing is."
The old scholar couldn't help but pat the table, and said loudly: "The female shopkeeper is too reasonable. When you are out of the question, you guys don't want to think about it. If you don't have Lord State Shepherd, you won't have to worry about it all. , How can we sit here drinking and chatting today, who can make our people live a good life, is the most important thing,"
The fat man slapped his hands and said, "I like to hear these words. Master Zhou Mu led his troops to fight against Liu Xie and Dong Zhuo for several days. If he can become the emperor, the people will have a good life that day."
The old Xueyan hurriedly said: "Don't dare to say this, that is to decapitate,"
The thin and tall man said nonchalantly: "What's the matter, Master Zhou Mu has already said in the notice before the expedition. Once Liu Xie and Dong Zhuo are defeated, he must establish another Mingjun. The adult is also a Han family clan, so why can't he be an emperor? It’s better than having another stunner,"
The rain outside is getting heavier, but the enthusiasm of the diners to talk about current affairs has not diminished at all.
There was also a big banquet in the prefectural animal husbandry to entertain A Chou mother and daughter. In terms of meals in the prefectural animal husbandry, A Chou mother and daughter had eaten it once, but it was not as rich as today’s meal. Zhu Qian personally ordered several dishes. After the kitchen reorganization, after eating such a delicious meal again, Cai Yue finally understood why the little girl still refused to leave the prefecture, she wanted to marry Liu Xin, and the food here was also an irresistible temptation.
Looking at Ah Chou, who was burying his head and eating constantly, Ma Yun couldn't help but laughed and turned to Cai Yue and said, "Mrs. Huang, I have something to discuss with you."
