Chapter 13: Spring rain is as precious as oil

There are many people in Zhuangzi who are called pig boys, and there are no less than ten big and small pig boys in total.

The only one named Ah She is Yun Zhao!

"This name sounds very elegant and easy to pronounce. It is still the name used by His Majesty the Emperor of Han. It is noble enough. What are you dissatisfied with?"

Yun Niangzheng He was busy sifting through interviews, and was very impatient with his son's constant objections to his name.

"Cloud pig! It sounds so unpleasant."

"Pig also means wild boar in it, very majestic!"

"That's still a pig!"< /p>

"Who told you to get close to a wild boar? Now I even wonder if you drank the milk of that wild boar."

"Unjustly accused——"

"It's not unfair. You can get so fat without eating. You must have drank wild boar milk!"

"I have eaten."

"You haven't eaten, so you are in trouble." , Brother Yun Shu ate, but it’s a pity that I’m still burying the meat and eggs at the bottom of the bowl for you.”

“Okay, Yun Zhi is Yun Zhi, I am the pig boy, and you are the sow!”< /p>

Yunniang slapped him with her backhand, but Yunzhao ran away and disappeared. Yunniang sighed, put the sieve on the rolling pin again and slid it back and forth to continue sifting.

Wheat was brought by Yunfu from the market.

You don’t need money to sell wheat. You only need to carry a few bags of millet from home and go to the market to exchange for wheat.

In fact, in the countryside, people don’t have much money to spend, and food is the real hard currency.

There is no salt at home, so use two kilograms of wheat to exchange for some. If the family wants to eat meat, just get some wheat in exchange.

Even in recent years, even dowries and betrothal gifts have been paid with food.

After the wheat arrived at home, Uncle Fu asked his servants to wash and dry the wheat. After cleaning it, they put it on the stone mill and pushed it.

The white flour slowly dripped out from the edge of the stone mill. However, there was still a lot of brown bran on the wheat surface. At this time, Yun Niang and the servants were required to sift the flour and sift out the flour. There is a lot of bran in the wheat flour the first time, but the flour is very white, just a little thicker.

Yun Zhao squatted beside the stone mill and looked at it strangely. The flour did not become whiter the more it was ground, but became darker the more it was ground!

"I want to eat white noodles for the first time."

Yun Zhao suggested to Yun Niang diligently.

Uncle Fu, who was grinding with his pipe in his mouth, laughed and said: "This is the new wheat harvested last year. It is full of vitality and tastes good when mixed with bran."

Yun Zhao stared. Her eyes widened and she asked, "Isn't it true that the whiter the noodles, the more delicious they are?"

Yun Niang rolled her eyes at her son and said, "Whose family eats Toudao noodles?"

"My family Can't you eat?"

Yunniang rolled her eyes and said playfully: "I will be struck by lightning!"

During dinner in the evening, Yun Zhao got a big reward. A bowl of noodles that won’t be struck by lightning.

The color of the noodles is not good-looking, but the smell is goodThe dish should be delicious, with some oily meat sauce added on top, and the soaked mushrooms were cut into small pieces by my mother. The daylily was cut in half, stir-fried with the meat sauce and diced mushrooms, and specially added with soybean vinegar. , sour and fragrant.

The bowl is big and has a lot of noodles.

Yun Zhao glanced at his mother's rice bowl and sighed: "Just tell me if you don't want me to eat it!"

Yun Niang took a mouthful of millet and said calmly: "Just give it to me. You did it."

"I just learned the twelve words of 'Fragrant nine years old, able to warm the bed, filial to relatives, and do what you should do', and you made it for me right away. A big bowl of delicious food, are you testing me?"

Yunniang took another mouthful of millet and said, "You should be filial to me. If you are not filial, I will break your legs and test you. What did you do? What did you do to make me unhappy?"

Yun Zhao shook his head: "No!"

Yun Niang threw the bowl of noodles towards Yun Zhao. He pushed forward and said: "Then eat quickly, your mouth is watering."

Yun Zhao sighed, picked up a handful of noodles with chopsticks and put them in his mother's bowl, and then he was ready to eat them. I heard my mother say: "You didn't plan to ladle some soup for me, just let me eat dry noodles?"

Yun Zhao roared and wanted to throw away the bowl of noodles...

If you don't say what you said before and eat it yourself, my mother won't even say a word. Not to mention you, since you care about filial piety, then do it thoroughly.

Look at what I do, eat it quickly!”

Yun Zhao shook his head firmly and said: “No, I will. I'd better wait until you finish eating before I eat!"

"You kid, it's true this time, hurry up and your noodles will be wet."

"After you finish eating, leave and I will eat..."

In the evening, Yun Zhao once again sat at the table and copied the "Three Character Classic". This was the thirtieth time he copied it.

The teacher said that copying the "Three Character Classic" is a hard skill and cannot be lazy. As long as you copy the "Three Character Classic" a hundred times, you will basically learn more than a thousand characters.

If you include "Hundred Family Surnames" and "Thousand Character Essay", you can write articles and poems. And the three books of "Three, Hundred, and Thousand" can be completely memorized and written silently, basically. Even if the child's enlightenment is completed, learning "Shuowen Jiezi" in the future is a process of expanding knowledge.

Sir, I don’t recommend that anyone other than Yun Zhao, a Mengtong child from the Yun family, should continue to study knowledge. After all, if you study in depth, some people will be confused, some will be bad, and some will be bad. People will learn to be stupid.

So, after these people complete their elementary education, he will continue to teach them some miscellaneous subjects such as "Tiangong Kaiwu" and "Arithmetic".

He also suggested that Yun should regain his former bravery and stop focusing more on learning.

Every time he says these words, Mr. Xu’s eyes will turn slightly red.There will also be more runny nose, so I often blow my nose and wipe my eyes with a handkerchief.

When Yun Zhao was copying the "Three Character Classic" ninety-seven times, the sound of pattering rain suddenly sounded outside the window.

Yun Zhao opened the window, and a damp wind rushed into the room, making him shiver.

"Mom, it's raining!"

Yun Niang also came to the window, held her son in her arms, looked at the shining raindrops under the light and said with a smile: "Yes. , it’s raining, God finally opened his eyes and gave the people in Guanzhong a way to survive.”

“Will we be able to plant crops tomorrow?”

“Not yet, if this happens. If it rains for three days, it will change the moisture in the ground. It is the best time to plant crops."

"Mom, what kind of work did you find for the people in the school?"

"Of course we are farming, and they can't carry the stones to build walls."

"Our family doesn't plan to do anything else?"

"What are you doing? I used to open a winery, but it stopped when the drought came. People don't have enough food to eat, so how can there be extra food to make wine?"

"Let's grow more sorghum on the wasteland this year. I know a way to brew red sorghum wine."

"The wild boar spirit told you?"

"Just take it as it is, Mr. Gongye, Mr. Nanshan. Just a sheep, you eat the meat, I eat the intestines..."

"Yun pig, Yun pig, there is a secret recipe in Yushan, you drink wine, I eat the bad food..."

It's raining , Yun Niang's mood became very good, and she was no longer interested in pursuing the matter of her son suddenly becoming smarter.

Now, this fat and gentle son is sitting in her arms, his little face is red, his flesh is soft, and he is as delicate as an apricot flower that has just bloomed in the rain, pink and pink. It was fragrant, and she was still singing children's songs. This kind of happiness made her completely intoxicated. When her husband left, her son's stupid fear finally left her.

"When the sowing is finished, mother will take you to Chang'an to see your grandpa."

"If grandpa doesn't like you, I don't like him!"

"It's not that your grandpa doesn't like mom, it's that he doesn't like mom marrying your dad."

"Dad is very good. You have said many things about him."

"Your grandpa I hate your father's premature death, and I hate your mother too! I don't want to live in a shabby village."

"Do you hate me too?"

"No. , My son has become smart now, and your grandpa likes smart children like you best."

"In other words, if I were still a fool, he would definitely hate me, right?

I want to keep pretending to be a fool when I see him, what do you think?”

“Shut up, don’t let you become a fool again, my son will never be one again in his life.” Fool, I don’t allow you to say that!”

Yun Niang shook her son hard, trying to shake Yun Zhao who was still pretending to be a fool.

"Okay, okay, I will act very smart and make Grandpa and the others like me."

Yun Niang was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "You must be smart, you must not Pretending to be a fool, you have been a fool for too long.

If your father were alive and saw that my son was so smart, he would do dozens of somersaults in a row. ”
