Chapter 253 What Happened?
Chapter 253 What Happened?
There is another thing in April, that is, many people come to buy fine seeds from Shang Ming, those in the north buy from him; those in the south make friends with Luo Lun, and many people have known about the double-cropping rice.
Luo Lun also sent a letter to Wu Youwei, saying that he had become good friends with the heirs of several big local families according to Wu Youwei's idea.
And he has already sent someone to take his parents to take care of him. The situation at home is not very good. Last autumn, the grain harvest was poor, and his parents were also anxious to get angry. .
The arrival of his parents is also beneficial. Those clan elders have a good chat with his parents, especially Luo Lun is not married yet, and his parents are also anxious about his marriage.
Similarly, his marriage also made those big families ready to move, this is a wealthy son-in-law!
Wu Youwei had no idea about Luo Lun's marriage. There are many girls in his family, but they are not suitable.
Steward Lin Su planted suitable wheat, rice, etc. on the land of the family step by step, but left half of the wasteland to grow corn, soybeans and other popular agricultural products.
Because of the overseas buildings and middle buildings in Beijing, overseas crops have become popular in an instant, especially the emperor has said that corn can also be used as food.
Shang Ming took the opportunity to publicize the yield per mu of corn, but he kept a close eye on the improved seeds. Emperor Xianzong handed over the power to Shang Ming, and the improved seeds that Shang Ming bought and sold at the beginning were specially supplied to some royal relatives and nobles.These people don't lack anything, and there is no problem if they don't harvest for a year. When they are all planted, they will be promoted next year.
It is easy to go from top to bottom, and if there is any problem, it will not hurt the fundamentals of farmers.
The time lasted until Guiwei in May, when Emperor Xianzong sent envoys to record the prisoners in the world.
As soon as May arrives, the Dragon Boat Festival will arrive.
This year, apart from filial piety, Wu Youwei started going from house to house with gifts, people had to mingle, was that just dead end?
Especially the Wu family, the newly established branch has weak strength and needs more communication
And others also know that he is the only one who can set up a family in his branch, and his nephew is still a half-grown child in his [-]th or [-]th year.
When Wu Youwei went to Chen Jian and Liu Xuan's mansion, the two masters really gave him advice, this time he must try!
And be sure to hit it!
"You are already in your 20s. How many years have you been keeping filial piety? The best years are gone." Liu Xuanren is not taboo: "Although filial piety is the right thing to do, but your aunt... Hmph, it doesn't matter if you die, you don't need to be filial in the future.
Wu Youwei smiled awkwardly: "Yes, teacher, the students understand."
And Chen Jian gave him a box of books that he had read in the past, and the annotations on them were very neat: "You come to live in the capital in autumn. Students from the north will leave for the capital as soon as the first month is over. At that time, there will be hundreds of students from the north and the south, and there are countless outstanding ones. You have kept your filial piety for such a long time. It’s not only human relations, but also academics!”
Wu Youwei stood on the ground and obediently listened to the training.
"Don't think that you are unknown, your couplet is still hanging at the gate of Yayuan! And your spring flowers and moon every year, Lian Chun is afraid of spring parting." Can surpass you in 'Wing Chun'. "Then he hated iron for being weak and said: "In addition to your five songs in that Qunfang Pavilion, you can answer two mysteries, which is not bad, but you can go to that kind of place in the future, and you must not stay overnight!
Wu Youwei nodded quickly: "Of course! Students can tell the difference between flirtatious and indecent."
"You still dare to flirt?" Chen Jian said angrily: "Don't you know your own body? The Qinlou Chu Pavilion is not a good place, there are all kinds of methods, maybe your aunt got it from that kind of place. The medicine that came to hurt the body, later
Be careful when you go to that kind of place! "
Wu Youwei bowed his head: "Mmmmm..."
He had told them before that he would not get married because he was in poor health and unable to have children.
But in the ears of others, it is useless, otherwise infertility is not inability to have intercourse, and Wu Youwei would rather not get married, not take concubines, and not get close to women, then he must not be able to have intercourse!
So everyone defaults that he is the kind of person who can be honest.
After all, it is the wound in people's hearts, and everyone tries to avoid it as much as possible, and never even mentions it.
But Wu Youwei thought in his heart: If I go, the town governor at home will not be able to riot?
If you dare to stay overnight, you will probably wake up in the imperial prison the next day.
The two masters tightened the strings for Wu Youwei, and it was much easier for Master Jikong. The old monk asked him how his studies were.
After hearing that he was sure to pass the exam, he didn't ask any more questions. The old monk didn't understand the imperial examination very well, so he didn't give any pointers.
On the contrary, he brought a lot of good things to Wu Youwei: mountain delicacies from outside Guan, seafood from the sea, but they were all vegetarian.
After looking at the two girls, I knew that there was also a rose, and I was even more happy, so I asked Peony to take care of the pregnant rose nearby.
Then a large pile of supplements was sent to Li Qing's house.
Li Qing was so happy that he couldn't find Bei, it was even better for Rose.
Rose said one thing at home, and Li Qing looked like "everything is good enough to have a child" outside.
Let Wantong clean it up for a while, Li Qing is not angry, and treats guests everywhere, and the whole Beizhen Fusi of the publicity knows that he has a wife.
Jin Yiwei has a successor, of course he should be happy.
Wu Youwei asked people to build the wall after the festival, including his Moling Lake, a large apricot forest by the lake, Moling Villa and the back mountain, etc. The wall should be high and thick, and he also arranged Patrolled by hand, outsiders are not allowed to climb the wall to enter.
"Why?" Butler Lin Su was puzzled.
"This is my private territory. I don't like outsiders coming in and out. In the future, I can receive good friends who come over." Wu Youwei said in a low voice, "When the apricot blossoms bloom next year, it is time to try At that time, here will be the apricot orchard!
This is the inspiration from Yayuan.
Xingyuan, Xingbang.
The apricot list is actually the list issued for the announcement of those who passed the examination when the imperial examinations were taken: scholars.
Because it was in April of Yangchun when the apricot blossoms were blooming, it was called "Xingbang".The release of the list in the examination can be called "the title of the apricot list".
The imperial examination is held in March, but the results will be released in April. This month happens to be the most beautiful time here.
How happy is it to invite some people to come here to visit the garden and exchange knowledge?
The most important thing is that he also wants to have his own forest garden, otherwise why would he let people plant so many apricot trees many years ago.
Peach trees cannot be planted here in Beidi, otherwise he would have wanted to plant peach trees.
So housekeeper Lin Su started to build the garden again...
Wantong has already tidied up the next door, and asked Wu Youwei to come over and "try to live": "I'll get someone to change it if it's not good. If you come here in winter, you won't be able to change it."
Wu Youwei also missed him, so he brought someone over to try living here, but found that everything was good here, and he praised Wantong for his thoughtfulness.
"What's the matter?" Wantong stroked his dog's head and said, "Just think about it, what do you do when you open your eyes every day, until night, go to bed on the kang, and smooth out the whole day, then you will know What do you need?"
He also deliberately opened up the corner room to turn it into a wash room, and there is also a big bathtub for soaking in it, which is made according to Wu Youwei's preference, which is convenient, and the fire wall and floor are completely laid. The wool felt that needs to be laid is all trafficked from outside the customs, and it is specially customized and thickened.
It's just that the ones in the summer are not laid out, and it is just right to take them out when it is cold.
So Wu Youwei tried to live here, and Wantong came to "try live" with him on the first day...
And Wu Youwei went to see Zhang Sheng from time to time. Although he is now the head of the mountain, Tao Wen Academy has not recruited students over the age of 12, so there are still two old scholars and two young scholars in the academy. Teach them to read and the three of them go back to the capital to study together from time to time.
Life was going smoothly, but it was a pity that something happened just after a few days of comfortable life.
Wantong came back very late that day. Long after he came, Wantong didn't work overtime. Jin Yiwei has reached his level, and he no longer needs to take people out to charge. Even Wanda has been promoted to Qianlong over there. household.
Here Wantong can already become a commander, rather than a do-it-yourselfer.
And after the test, he removed the word "trial" from Fang Hongzhuo's test hundred households, and became a real hundred households.
And thinking that if he does well, then the Qianhu seat he left behind can be inherited by him, but "try Qianhu" for a period of time, and then remove the word "trial".
But he didn't say anything to anyone, he just mentioned it to Wu Youwei, and Wu Youwei didn't give him any advice. Anyway, he didn't know about Jin Yiwei's work, so he just let Wantong figure it out. If Fang Hongzhuo was the one If there is no material, there is nothing wrong with promoting him, if not, don't look at his face and give him a future.
Jin Yiwei's job is not just relying on favors to rise to the top. If he is not up to the job, it will be Wantong's responsibility if he gets into trouble.
Wantong knew his worries, and was very heartwarming about Wu Youwei's thoughtfulness. The two of them talked about it yesterday, and Wantong just came back tonight. Wu Youwei didn't eat and was waiting for him.
As a result, Wantong was in a bad mood.
"What's the matter?" Wu Youwei seldom saw Wantong's black wind look fierce, is he out of breath?
"Concubine Bai has already activated, I don't know what will come out!" Wantong said with a straight face, "If it's a boy...
Wu Youwei thought for a while: "Even if it's a boy, who can guarantee that the child will grow up safely?"
Historically, Concubine Bai did give birth to a boy, Zhu Youji, who was established as the crown prince, but unfortunately, how long did it take to become the crown prince?died early.
"You can't talk nonsense." Wantong looked around vigilantly: "Now the emperor has no son, this is something that will shake the foundation of the country."
Why was Emperor Daizong successfully restored by Emperor Yingzong?
Isn't it because Emperor Daizong's prince died?Without a son, there is no future, so Emperor Yingzong was able to succeed in the restoration.
Before the restoration, Emperor Yingzong himself never thought that he would be able to restore it!
Wantong was worried. If Concubine Bai really gave birth to a son, would she be able to have the Wan family if she ascended the throne and became emperor in the future?
"Don't worry." Wu Youwei comforted him: "The Bai family will not have that great luck."
Even if Concubine Bai gave birth to a son, it would be fine, she won't live long.
Although he was working hard to change Daming, he didn't have such long hands. He was able to change Concubine Wan's first child because of Wantong; There is no way to intervene.
Wantong didn't know why, he was obviously very worried, but because of Wu Youwei's few words, he felt a lot better: "I will accept your good words!"
"It's just to have a baby." Wu Youwei said, "Let's have dinner, today someone specially made old duck soup!"
"En." Wantong drank half a bowl of soup before Wu Youwei asked him to start using his chopsticks.
"Bai Fei launched it today? How do you know?" Wu Youwei asked him.
"I was in front of the emperor at the time. The emperor heard the news, and I heard it too. Then the emperor arranged for people to guard the Zhaode Palace, and went to comfort the elder sister himself. He didn't go to see Concubine Bai, but the empress dowagers of the two palaces. They sent someone over there." Wan Tongdao: "My elder sister is about to die."
Speaking of Concubine Wan, Wu Youwei smiled: "My lady is favored by the emperor, and I am also blessed. Now that I have a child, the first one can be born smoothly, and the next step will be much easier."
"Really?" Wantong thought for a while: "Then my eldest sister is the second child, so it should be easier. Much...
At this moment, steward Wanfu hurried in: "My lord, Mr. Li Qing is here, he said, Empress Bai Concubine in the palace, gave birth!"
Wantong stood up abruptly, and Wu Youwei followed suit, and they both asked in unison, "What happened?"
