Fall In Love with the Technology Tree

In the spring, green bean sprouts and millet sprouts grew in the fields.

Compared with previous droughts and floods, this year seems to be a rare year to breathe a sigh of relief. Go through it, go through the green and yellow season, and you will be able to harvest a new season of grain.

For the rich and powerful, it means that there is no danger in going out for an outing.

The friends of the Xun family are gradually becoming adults. This year, Xun Yue, who is in the long house, is 20 years old, and will hold a crown ceremony. Getting married after the age of 20 follows strict Zhou etiquette. In the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it reflects a kind of calmness that can only be achieved with superior economic conditions. It's the same reason that the rich and handsome of later generations don't have to worry about marrying late.

It is also the Xun family, and there are also early engagements. Xun Yu, who was sold in his infancy, was one, and sixteen-year-old Xun Chen also faced the dilemma of political marriage. Xun Chen's father, Xun Lai, was transferred to be the prime minister of Jinan. In order to gain a firm foothold in Qingzhou, where the Liu family and Confucianism co-governed, Xun Chen's future wife would be from the Liu family in Qingzhou.

The always lively Xun Chen is wilting all day, and even braised pork can't make him happy.

"Why are you doing this?" his brother Xun Yan said, "I have been engaged since I was a child, and A-Yu has been engaged since I was a child. Why do you look like you are in a calamity?"

Xun Yan sighed: "What's wrong with this?" The younger brother who had always grown up in Lotte suddenly became rebellious, what he could do was to wait by the side.

Fortunately, Xun Chen didn't do anything like jumping into the river like crazy, he pulled the grass for a while, then stood up. "Where's Ah Sheng? I seem to hear her singing."

What's wrong? ! !

Asheng was sitting on a large smooth stone by the river. Last year, the big water washed the stone here from upstream. This year, the water level has dropped, and this large pebble has been exposed on the river beach. It's the most comfortable place to sit. She suddenly had a feeling today, remembered a song from a previous life, and sang a cappella in front of Taotao's river and vast sky.

The False Monk

The ups and downs are endless. Xun's family also taught singing, a very ancient singing method, combined with modern songs, it is even more strange.

Xiao Xunyu picked up a bag of pebbles, ran under the big stone and looked up at her: "What dialect did Ah Sheng sing? I can't understand a word."

Do not understand Mandarin is normal Eastern Han people.

"It is a dialect in the north, about the area of ​​Yan Kingdom in the Zhou Dynasty."

"Oh..." Xun Yu touched his chin, "Then what does it mean in Mandarin?"

Two legs, with thousands of mountains and rivers. One day, I will fly far away."

Xun Yu's eyes widened: "Ah Sheng is leaving?"

Xun Chen suddenly came out from behind the reed and put his hand on Xun Yu's head: "She will leave, one day. Yingchuan is too young... I can't keep her."

A Sheng frowned: "Hey, A Chen is here. Do you want to eat meat at noon today? I heard A Yu said that you are going to be engaged. This is a happy event of adulthood and it should be celebrated."

Xun Chen also smiled and hugged Xun Yu: "Okay! I'm going to be an adult."

Although Xun Chen was congratulated on the surface, Ah Sheng did not have a good impression of Xun Qian and Xun Erlong in his heart. Other families are selling their daughters, but he is selling their sons: the marriages of Xun Yan, Xun Chen, and Xun Yu have all been used for strong marriages. Although blind and dumb marriages are common these days, the higher the level, the more flexible it is. With the status of the Xun family, it is reasonable to give the children a little autonomy in choosing a mate.

Xun Hao's style, too little attention to children's human rights, feudal patriarchal atmosphere is very strong.

This is exactly what happened.

Before going to Jinan to take office, Xun Hao went home to deal with the trivial matters before departure, and attended Xun Yue's crown ceremony by the way. He was an official outside all the year round, and he didn't know how Ah Sheng was studying in Xun's family. Now that I understand a little bit, I have a lot of criticism. "The **** won't talk about it after that. A-Yu is determined to be a girl from the Tang family. But men and women are not seated at the age of seven. She's about to be married, so she should avoid suspicion."

The second child Xun is not the same as the fourth child Xun. Although his thoughts are feudal, his words and actions are well-founded, otherwise he would not have given birth to so many talented sons. Xun Shuang couldn't refute the second brother, so he could only let him talk to Ah Sheng.

A Sheng was also a little stunned when she saw Xun Laiping retiring the servant, but she still gave the standard salute: "Zhong Ci Gong."

Xun Hao praised: "The etiquette is very good."

"Zhong Ci Gong has awarded."

The two sides exchanged a few words of courtesy, and Xun Qian led the way. "The Analects of Confucius has a saying that one should learn when one is good at work, and when one is good at work, one should be serving. I asked some unworthy children of my family to prepare for their careers. I heard from Ciming and Shuci that Langjun has good talents and good qualities, and he has a great influence on the future. Do you have any plans?" Do you have any plans, girls can't go into officialdom.

Asheng didn't answer, Xun Ling continued: "What do you think of the palace?"

A Sheng shook his head: "That's not my ambition. And when my uncle and grandfather were there, how could I have thought that the first emperor had no descendants, and the current His Majesty inherited the great line?" Don't guess, our family He has never had a dirty mind to send his daughter to the palace.

Xun Hao smiled and stroked his beard: "Langjun wants to imitate the talented Ban Zhao, learn to be rich, and become a generation of everyone. Prepare early."

"Thanks for the suggestion."

A literate person is a literate person.

A Sheng didn't stay too long, and went back to the water pavilion to find Xun Shuang's farewell. Xun Shuang kept her: "I still have a few cases for Ah Sheng in my class."

But Ah Sheng has made up her mind to leave. She has almost finished the Xun family's courses, and the collection of books has been sorted out. And she always goes to Hainan to grasp the overall situation, and she is also preparing to develop the barren Taiwan Strait. She kowtowed to Xun Shuang sincerely: "I know that I am different from the world, and Duke Ciming took me in, taught me many things and never kept secrets, and let the children of the family with both political integrity and ability to associate with me, I will always remember this kindness in my heart. Although I'm leaving temporarily, if Duke Ciming is in trouble, I'll definitely rush back, so please don't block me from the door."

Seeing her firmness, Xun Shuang stopped persuading her: "You are smart, and you have learned nine out of ten of my knowledge, and the rest depends on personal practice. There is no end to learning, even if When you leave here, don't waste your studies."

"No."

"A Sheng is here, what business are you planning to manage?"

"My family has a medical clinic in Sizhou, and I am going to study medicine."

"Medical..." Xun Shuang pondered.

A Sheng explained with a smile: "Medicine is a lowly profession, because it is mixed with ghosts, spirits and witchcraft, not the knowledge of a gentleman. I am going to revisit the classics of medicine and medicine, remove the dross and open up new methods, hoping to save The art of man can become a respected knowledge such as incense and tea ceremony.”

Xun Shuang this is to relax: "The epidemic is rampant, and good doctors are hard to find. You are so good, you don't need to care about worldly vision. I look forward to the day when you become a Bian Que."

Xun Shuang's open-mindedness made Ah Sheng sigh from beginning to end. She was probably lucky. When she was born, she met an enlightened grandfather. At the insistence of her grandfather, she had an enlightened father, and later found an enlightened teacher. Now that she has finished her primary education in the Eastern Han Dynasty, she is about to start her own journey.

With luggage and servants, Ah Sheng said goodbye to the Xun family, to Yang Zhai's fifth and sixth uncles, and headed west to Luoyang. Although the situation in Luoyang was changing, according to Cao Song's words, he lived in the army all day, the **** and the gentry did not help each other, so it was safe for the time being.

Zhang Huan is about to return to court, and Cao Cao will come back with him. The family has not been reunited for a long time, and it is good to be able to gather in Luoyang for a few days.
