"Hanhan, His Highness the Crown Prince is indeed here." The mayor looked at Hanhan and said, he was frightened.
Hanhan said in the morning that he would prepare meals for pregnant women, and His Highness the Crown Prince would come to pick them up for the Crown Princess, and the result really came.
"It's normal! Being so close and knowing that our cooking is delicious, people's moods fluctuate during the New Year. Pregnant people may have anorexia."
Zhu Wentian took a bite of a bun with sauerkraut and lard residue. It was fragrant and not greasy at all. He dipped it in soy sauce and vinegar.
"Why is everything okay in our village?" The village chief looked at the four pregnant women in the village.
"What's the trouble in our village?" said the village elder next to him.
The manager stopped talking and lowered his head to drink porridge.
"When the sun is higher, let's go out. First, we will walk on the ground, go around the library, and see the construction behind it. Then we will continue to the west. When we are tired, we will turn south. We will take a boat on the Qinhuai River and return to Chaoyang Gate. Come in."
Zhu Wentian has planned the route. It is very convenient to have the Qinhuai River. The boats picking up vegetables in Xiaqiu Village need to rest and stop here directly.
No other boats are allowed to park outside Chaoyang Gate. Boatmen can tie up their boats and rest here.
There are more boats now, otherwise the boatmen would be exhausted from running around all day long. The section against the current is not so easy.
A villager was eating a steamed bun and a few mouthfuls of porridge. When he stopped to rest, he asked, "Hanhan! Will this place belong to our village from now on?"
"When we make the new revolving flintlock gun and send the blueprints and physical objects to the top, this place can belong to our village."
Zhu Wentian gave an answer. If you want to get something, you have to pay. Only how valuable is the value will others be willing to give you.
"That's good! Being close to the Holy Father will be good for the children in our village. They will all be officials in the future. We are not greedy and we have money." The village elder was satisfied.
"Yes, that's right, older people like us! They like to have a lot of land, and their children will be promising and flourish. A boy will marry a good wife, and a girl will marry a good family.
Nowadays, girls in our village cannot marry outside because they know too many secrets. Bells! Don't worry, you still have a sister who hasn't found anyone yet, you're not young anymore, so take a closer look. "
Another village elder followed and suddenly changed the topic to the little girl at the table next to him.
"Look, little, look, um! Hey hey hey hey!" the little girl replied.
"Begging for a beating!" The village elder swung his arm and smiled himself.
…
"Is this the inscription mentioned by the Holy One? There are many students." After dinner, everyone walked to the library and saw the inscription as soon as they entered the main entrance.
The village elder said, go upstairs, others followed, and the babies' strollers were carried upstairs.
The first floor is full of wealthy students. They think reading on the first floor can bring them closer to the Holy Father.
Those who don’t have money dare not fight with them and continue to stay behind.
It is indeed a fight. You have to pay for a location on the first floor of the library. The closer you are to the inscription, the more money you will pay.
There are rows of bookshelves on the second floor. There are more and more books now. They are typeset with copper movable type. The books in the palace will be printed as long as Xiaqiu Village is willing to ask for them.
Simple decoration is cheap and you can earn 20% of the profit, while hardcover is five times the profit. You can buy it if you like it or not.
At the same time, the good things from Zhu Xi’s Four Treasures of the Study store are also sold here, plus other grades for people to choose from.
"It's cold here, and there's no fire. By the way, if there's a fire, these books... will be really distressing." The village elder said again.
He took out a book and read it, and he knew most of the words.
The village elder next to him also picked out a book and read it: "We also thought about studying when we were young, but it turned out that we didn't learn to read until we were old, alas~~!"
"Grandpa Six, you are not allowed to speak loudly here." The little girl reminded loudly, telling everyone in the village.
"Oh! Not loud, not loud." The village elder lowered his voice.
"Where did you come from? A group of people, including pregnant women? Old women? Can you come in and read? Here... woo, woo!" A student said from the side.
"Don't be surprised, Ling'er. He's new here. You can go around and say whatever you want. We like to hear it. He's like this old aunt, so kind-hearted."
The student who was covering the mouth of the previous one said with a smile on his face, while his companions beside him helped to hold his arms and cover his mouth.
"His Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince invited us to celebrate the New Year here. We all just came here yesterday. We just took one look and left. We went out through the second door at the back." The little girl responded with a smile.
Once everyone knows the situation, take a look and leave.
"Brother Keyi! Do you want to kill us? People from Xiaqiu Village, do you think you are powerful just because you have two dollars? Look at the clothes they are wearing."
The person helping to cover his mouth let go of his hand and raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
The person who spoke before was also taking a deep breath, so nervous, so scary.
The person whose mouth was covered was confused: "That girl just said that the Holy Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince invited them to celebrate the New Year?"
"I came here to watch the ceremony of the crown prince and his concubine! I have already reminded you that if you talk too much, if I don't cover your mouth, you will be beaten to death by the two hundred poor scholars over there."
The first person to cover his mouth was frightened for a while, but he didn't care.
"Are these buildings connected? How many doors are there?" The village elder really didn't care. He found a door and came out, which was the corridor on the second floor.
"Afraid of leakage, everyone should run away quickly. There are no orphan books in the library. Burning them is a matter of money. Money cannot buy back life when a person dies."
The chief told us that there are many doors and stairs, plus corridors connected by cement prefabricated boards.
Just burn a place with a big water tank and pump underneath.
"This design also took a lot of thought. Can it go down later?"
"able!"
The group of people walked to the back and went down the stairs. The wheelchair was ready again. The wheelchair was heavier than the stroller and had not been carried in just now.
In the stroller, some babies were asleep and didn't wake up at all, and some were looking around with a pacifier in their mouths.
When people passing by on the street glance at the baby sitting in the stroller with eyes wide open and curious about everything, they want to pick it up and take it home.
Of course, if you really take it home and raise it, the baby will not be like this. This is the result of parenting knowledge and money.
From here to the west, there is a construction site. Three hundred craftsmen did not rest even after the New Year. They worked day and night. They were paid and received "red envelopes" for the New Year, which meant they gave away many things.
Everyone walked and came to a market. Everything was expensive, including the tofu that was cut a little less.
"Ling'er, do you want to buy some meat? Take a look at today's meat." Someone saw the little girl behind a meat stall and greeted her enthusiastically.
"Didn't you buy it from the Danqing Box Dinner Restaurant? I took the people in the village around today. You...eh? Pig intestines...do you recognize that thing?"
While the little girl was talking, she noticed something bloody and hairy on the pig sewer used as a gift. She hesitated and asked the other party.
"I don't know. The pigs we just killed are in a mess and they haven't been cleaned up yet!" The pork seller shook his head.
"Brother Hanhan?" The little girl looked at Brother Hanhan.
Zhu Wentian looked at something, opened one hand, touched his left face, touched his right face, and clenched his fist: "Hey! What! Hey hey hey hey!"
"It's okay, Uncle Cheng, sell me this pig sand for five hundred and fifty cents." The little girl understood.
"Is this pig sand? I've given you this set of sewers."
The pork seller understood instantly. He looked at the little girl gratefully and wanted to give something away.
"Uncle Cheng, please find something to wrap up. I'm not going to buy anything today, so you can keep it when you go to the water." The little girl refused.
No more today, oh, forget about yesterday! Thanks to brothers and sisters for their rewards, monthly votes, and recommendation votes, the farmer bows! Thanks! Thanks!
