Fall In Love with the Technology Tree
Chapter 12: Run silent
Yizhou was an area where the Eastern Han rebellion continued. Large tracts of mountains and forests are occupied by ethnic minorities. With the pioneering of the central dynasty in the southwest, stories of conquest, surrender and rebellion are staged almost every year. However, compared with the famous Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Qiang people in the north, the loose "Southern Man" never formed a memorable name, nor fought a war that troubled the central dynasty.
They are just called Nanman.
Even the Liu family can't remember the name of the tribe. Since she was sensible, her family's surname was Liu, and it was a fashion for barbarians who surrendered to the country to be surnamed.
However, names are easy to change, but customs are not. Liu's father and brother were very beautiful. They conquered other tribes, killed men and plundered women. In the end, when they pointed the knife head at the Central Dynasty again, they lost. What they had done to other tribes happened to themselves.
Han people are no more merciful than barbarians.
The innocent little girl became a prisoner, and was taken out of the Sichuan Basin surrounded by mountains by the army to suppress the rebellion, and came to the prosperous and prosperous Luoyang. The long humiliation erased many of her memories: the names of her parents, the language of the tribe, and herself who used to be as proud as a little peacock. Gradually, being a maid and a concubine is no longer an unbearable thing. She has a good master, eats well, wears well, doesn't need to be beaten, and raises a little snake. The life in the Cao family is the best she expects. of life.
However, such a good life is also very illusory, and it will be broken with a poke.
When death is near, the blood burns. Not reconciled, not reconciled, she has never had time to do anything bad in her life. She suddenly dreamed of her hometown, the mountains and mountains, the night rain in Bashan, then the blood spilled in the forest, the sound of killing, the sound of mourning, the raging fire that destroyed the cottage, and then the magnificent capital mansion, as detailed as a century-old Ling late.
Finally, she saw the figure of the young child who almost melted in the morning light.
“What would your ideal life be like?”
I…I want to go home. She tried to maintain the dignity of an adult, but tears rolled down uncontrollably. The life of a barbarian is a wild grass in the mountains. As long as there is suitable soil, it can be revived.
Liu opened his eyes, it was pitch black in the farmhouse, and he couldn't see anything.
There is thunder outside, and there is the sound of spring rain. There have been many droughts in recent years, and I don't know how long such a good spring rain will last.
After raising her for three months, the wounds on her body have scarred, and it is not a problem to walk on the ground, but she has no freedom.
A sturdy young girl in a short brown rough coat sat at the door with a sword, as dumb as a rock. Liu Shi smiled bitterly, this is actually unnecessary. She is no different from an ordinary Han woman. She was too young to exercise her physical fitness, and did not remember much about the tribe. Her way of thinking was all occupied by the red tape of the aristocratic family. The most fluent language was Luoyang Mandarin. Can she make any waves like this?
"What does the little girl want me to do?" Liu's voice was very clear in the quiet night.
Sure enough, the girl guarding the door was awake. She raised her sword and said, "I'll ask."
She came back the next day. "Little Erlang-kun asked you, do you know how to write and count?"
Liu was a little surprised: "He knows the heavenly stems and the earthly branches."
It took another four or five days for the reply from there. A wooden board with nearly 100 Chinese characters engraved on it, as well as brushes, ink **** and blank bamboo slips. "Little Erlang-Jun said that you should study first so that you can do things for her."
No instructions, no teacher, let her learn Chinese characters. Liu Shi was not stupid, but he was also blinded by this headless situation. She suspected that the fairy-like little girl was playing with her. Originally, in her expectation, she should raise snakes, and perhaps someone will torture her to ask her about her origin and snake raising skills. Unexpectedly, the other party is in a posture of wanting to support her for a long time and spend food.
Being a concubine to several literati for several years, Liu Shi can recognize some characters, not only the heavenly stems and the earthly branches. But there are also a lot of new words on the board, and, moreover, I have to learn numbers, a strange number with a snake-like symbol. Liu used a brush to paint the gourd for a few days, but he felt that it would not work.
"I can't learn the rest, you have to find me a teacher." Liu said when he handed over the homework to the gatekeeper girl.
After another seven or eight days, a young boy came. There are still the marks of poverty on his face, but his manners bear the traces of upbringing. "This is Tian Dalang. From now on, he will come every five days."
Tian Dalang is still a child, no matter how stable he is, he has brought a lot of vitality to this farmyard. He has only just opened his door, and teaching Liu is almost learning and selling.
"I study with Erlang. Erlang treats people very well. He never beats or scolds us, and he tells us stories." , "Unfortunately, I don't have Adi's aura in my brain, and I can't keep up with the progress of Dalang and Erlang in my studies. Erlang said, I was delayed because of Kaimeng."
"You're only eight years old, even if you start late. Then what is it that I didn't start literacy until I was twenty?"
Tian Dalang was a little comforted, but still said: "It is calculated by one year old, Dalang Erlang is less than two years old."
"They are different, they are noble."
"Erlang said, there is no difference. Stupid is stupid, smart is smart. If you are low-born, relax your requirements on yourself, and your descendants will all be low-born."
Tian Dalang's words were inseparable from "Erlang said", and even the impression of "Erlang" in Liu's mind became clear. That little fairy.
After the Qingming Festival, Tian Dalang began to bring some yellowed grass paper to teach Liu to draw a table: the first column of dates, the second column, the third column, the fourth column loss... In addition temperature, light, weather, etc.
"What is this for?"
"Little Erlang-kun said, it's time for you to do things." The gatekeeper girl suddenly spoke like a ghost.
"Snake?"
She shook her head: "Raising chickens."
"What?"
"In addition to the many snakes in your south, you are also one of the earliest places to raise chickens."
"But I..."
"No, learn slowly."
“…”
"Chicken breeds in various regions are already on the way. Breeding, can you? No, there are also peasant women who raise chickens nearby."
Liu was powerless to refute, and could only lie down and accept: "A cockfight? A crowing cock? A little girl wants a beautiful coat?
The gatekeeper fell silent. Liu Shi was used to her rigidity. Sure enough, the girl raised her sword again and stood up: "I'll ask."
Liu pressed her forehead, and she suddenly felt superior in terms of IQ.
The girl came back that night and spoke a long paragraph like a repeater: "Little Erlang Jun said that the appearance and sound are not important. She should grow fast, lay more eggs, and have good meat. Eating, obedient and docile, it is not easy to get lost, likes to eat locust grass, consumes less grain, and is strong and not easy to get sick.”
"What?"
"Growth fast, lay a lot of eggs, have delicious meat, be obedient and docile and not easy to get lost, like to eat locust grass, consume less grain, be strong and not easy to get sick."
Go ahead.
"When the chicks arrive, try artificial hatching first. Let's talk about ecological agriculture."
Can people hatch eggs? What is the term for ecological agriculture? Sitting on the humble straw mat, Liu pondered about life for two seconds. "Fine."
There is something to do.
A Sheng, who asked Liu to open the door to the new world, was walking in the plum garden humming a little song. Luo Chi and Mrs. Zhuang walked behind with the maid who brought the food box.
"Master is in a good mood today?" Luo Chi took the initiative to talk to her, and only Luo Chi would take the initiative to talk to Ah Sheng, "I'm singing a tune that I don't know where it came from."
The melody of "Blue and White Porcelain" in Ah Sheng's mouth came to an abrupt end: "Like tofu brain, it came from the sky."
Clan and the maids were amused. Both of Zing's sons can study with Ah Sheng, and she is grateful and smiles a lot more.
Opening the silk door, taking off his shoes and entering the house, he saw Cao Jili kneeling and his eyes glowing after a few cases. "Ruyi, do you have tofu brain today?"
Ruyi raised her small chin proudly: "Not only tofu brain, but also white bread stuffed with wasabi and mutton. Please praise me."
Geely pinched her face: "Ruyi Ruyi, never tire of eating fines and fines."
Ruyi slapped off his brother's messy hand: "Then don't eat me."
Geely quit, and rubbed Ah Sheng's face desperately.
A Sheng couldn't speak clearly: "Cook... cook father... save me... woo woo woo..."
Cao Teng and Wu's cases have been put on bean curd and buns, both of which are the products of improved stone grinding, because Ah Sheng has not added hydraulic drive, so the output Not high, only the host family can enjoy it every day.
"Don't make trouble with your second brother, Geely, it's time for dinner."
The twins were separated, and they sat down in their own seats and had breakfast in peace. Today, Ah Sheng is in a good mood. He gave himself and his brother a small bowl of bean curd and a small bun to try it out. In her science-based recipes, little kids shouldn't eat too much soy and salt. Mainly should eat eggs, milk, starch and vegetables.
"The meat patties and bean curd in Ruyi's house are getting better and better." Cao Teng was full and said to Ah Sheng, "Today is a rest day, no class. You eat these Send a copy to your parents too."
Geely shouted: "I want to see my mother too."
"Brother, you are still ill." Ruyi smiled, "Do you have anything for mother?"
"Oh...then take my newly practiced characters with you."
When it comes to seeing her mother, Ah Sheng is not in a good mood. Since Zhang gave birth to Cao Jia Saburo a month ago, Ding has been anxious again. She is the kind of "although I'm anxious, but I don't say I don't say it" look. Ah Sheng is not stupid, how can he not worry about her?
Ding's logic is this.
Geely offended the Liang family, and most of his future career will be cut off. Although Ah Sheng is called Erlang, she is actually a girl who manages the family business well, and it is impossible to enter the officialdom. Even a talented woman from an aristocratic family like Ban Zhao could at most be able to enter the palace to give lectures. After that, it was the turn of Zhang's third child, Cao De. Cao Song liked Mrs. Zhang, and he liked Cao De even with him. As soon as the full moon was over, he took a big name, and he might let Cao De join the official in the future.
If she can't give birth to a son and squeeze in front of Cao De...
If all her daughters were born later...
Then you have to count on Yin's belly. The Yin family's status is much lower than that of the Zhang family, so she has to raise the son born by the Yin family as her own son...
Yin's...Yin's...the wet nurse has said in her ear several times about going back to mother and keeping children, but Yin's has followed her since she was a child, and she can't let go...
Furthermore, in case she and Yin have a daughter...
The consequence of Ding thinking too much is that it becomes cloudy and sunny.
One second she took Yin Shi's hand and cried, "You and I must have a baby boy", the next second she looked at Yin Shi with a negative eye , called her "lowly" and asked her to do rough work, and in the next second, she would feel sorry for the Yin family again. capricious.
When Ah Sheng entered her mother's yard, she saw Yin Shi with a big belly picking up dead branches and leaves in the yard. She quickly asked the maid next to her to help Yin Shi up.
"Little Erlang-kun."
"Mother's heart is gloomy, she takes anger at you, and makes you wronged."
Yin lowered his head, looking like weeping. "The maid can't wait to give birth to this child today."
A Sheng sighed: "How about I tell my grandmother to move you out?"
"No way! Where do I put the mistress' face like this?" Yin Shi's face turned pale, and hurriedly wiped away her tears, "My servant girl's life is cheap, and it is my use to be able to relieve the mistress, it's not worth it. Little Erlang-kun takes care of you."
Come on, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.
