Chapter 405: (1/2)
On the second day, Zhou Yi and Zhou Shan joined together after breakfast and went out together. They were still thinking about going to Daming Lake for fishing today.
But Pei Xiu did not allow the three brothers to go out, and said that they would be allowed to study at home in the morning, so they could only go out after noon.
What's more, the boss didn't finish his homework.
A few boys have been playing for so many days, and their hearts are about to play wild, so they still need to be properly restrained.
After Zhou Yi entered the door, he formally met Pei Xiu and gave her a slap.
Uncle Zhou had tried his best to teach him martial arts for a year, and he often had breakfast at Zhou's house. In his heart, he had long regarded them as his masters and teachers.
Pei Xiu hurriedly helped him up, and said angrily, "I'm here, why are you still doing such a big gift? Get up quickly."
"I haven't seen each other in three years. It's my first visit today. I should kowtow to my aunt."
"There is no need to do this in the future. The three brothers are studying in the house. I will not allow them to go out to play until after noon. You can find them and read a book together for a while."
Zhou Shan nodded in agreement, "Okay, auntie, I haven't read the book for a few days, and I'm going to school tomorrow, it's time to read the book for a while and take care of it, or else the Master will make a random check and we'll ask three questions. It's troublesome."
"Well, let's go."
Zhou Shan took Zhou Yi to retire, and walked to the three brothers' yard with his familiarity.
"How long did you live here before you moved to the palace? You are so familiar with it that you don't need servants to lead the way. This mansion is not too small, why are there so few servants? No one was seen all the way, it was quiet." Zhou Yi walked all the way and looked around.
"The population of Zhou Mansion is simple, and they are used to doing it themselves if they can, and they don't need too many servants. There are more people but more things. Moreover, only my aunt and my sister are at home every day. "
He paused, "As for me, um... I was recognized back to the palace on the second day after I came to the capital. It's just that I stay at Zhou's house every day, and I come and go frequently, and it's normal to be familiar with it."
"Okay, it's still your life!"
He laughed at himself, "Is my life okay?"
"No, I made a slip of the tongue. It should be said that you were born well, but you are just good luck. Now you are finally back on the right track. If Jitai is here, you will be named an earl."
He smiled, "It should be said that I am lucky. If I hadn't had Uncle Zhou and Auntie, I would have starved to death on the street long ago, and I would not be able to find my biological parents, and I would not have had the enviable days I have now."
"Indeed. Fortunately, you are lucky."
"It's here, there's still one room of mine left in this courtyard."
"Why don't you go back to the house? It's better if we all get together and study together." Zhou Yi stopped him from entering the house and knocked on the door one by one.
The boss happened to be irritable about writing, and when he heard a knock on the door, he happily put down his pen and ran over to open the door.
"You came so late, I've been waiting for the flowers to thank you."
"It doesn't take time on the way here, why are you so virtuous, why are your hair so tangled? Didn't my aunt tell you to study in the house and allow you to go out at noon, we are still early." Zhou Yi unexpectedly looked at his hair in the east and the west.
"My hair is going to be bald when I write it. I just came out to get some air while you guys are here."
"Brother, you should hurry up and write your homework. After writing, we can go out to play, and you can save yourself cramming at night." The second child also came out of the room and said.
"Hey, my head's thinking about it, let me take a break, let's play football for a while and relax?"
"We can, but you can't, brother, you'd better finish your homework first."
The others did not agree with him playing first, and pushed him back into the room together. He wanted to protest, but the protest was ineffective.
I had to sigh and sit down at the desk again, and as soon as I picked up the pen, I heard the joy they were talking about outside the house.
Pricked up his ears and listened to them asking Zhou Yi to talk about the examination of Xiucai.
Intermittent voices came, which made him continue to write. He put the pen in his mouth, and he freed his hand and scratched his hair. I simply tore off a small piece of paper and plugged it in my ear.
Now it's clean, and he hasn't written two of his policies yet.
He had already written half of it last night. Who knew that the cook had cooked the grilled fish, and the aroma was overflowing. He couldn't help but drop his pen and eat the grilled fish. Ask him to continue writing again today, and he has no clue again.
Forget it, grit your teeth and write whatever you want. Anyway, write everything he knows about farming. It doesn't matter if it's written well or not. Anyway, he doesn't take the imperial examinations.
After writing all the pages, he didn't check it, and he didn't need to put it away, just let the ink dry.
He took out the paper in his ears and quickly got up and ran out to see what they were doing.
As for another policy theory?
Isn't it night...
Seeing them sitting around the stone table in the yard, he asked, "What are you talking about?"
The second child picked up the green apples on the table and answered him, "Speaking of planting green apples, we were so excited to come back yesterday, we only talked about fish, and forgot to tell my mother about planting green apples."
"Yes, we forgot to tell my mother, let's talk about it now, let people dig out the seeds from the apple core, and keep the seeds for the spring as seedlings."
"The third brother just thought of the green apple when he saw the servant bring it up, and has already run over to tell my mother."
"That's good. We can personally go to Zhuangzi to sow seeds and transplant them." He said to Zhou Shan again, "We also left grape seeds, and we will try to plant them in the spring next year!"
"Really? Can we grow grapes here? This is a tribute from the Tibetans." Zhou Shan was a little surprised, but also a little doubtful.
"You'll know after you try it. Anyway, it takes a little effort and time. It doesn't matter if you can't grow it. When the real seed comes out, can't we eat as much as we want?"
Zhou Yi listened to them talking about grapes in confusion?
"What are grapes?"
The others looked at him with a smile, "You don't know if I said it, and you'll know when I take you to plant with you tomorrow."
"I've missed a lot of things."
"There are still more things you missed. Let your father work hard and hold on. It is rare for us to gather in the capital, and we have to take root in the capital in the future."
"Of course, my dad is amazing, not to mention I can get up right away!"
"Can you get up? Then get up." Zhou Yong pulled Zhou Yi and asked him to stand up.
"What are you doing, don't pull and pull at every turn, what a formality!" Zhou Yi clapped his hands indiscriminately.
"It's not that you said you'll get up right away, then stand up quickly and sit for me for a while, I'm tired from standing."
"I didn't mean that..."
"Then what do you mean? Get up..."
"I do not!"
The second child and Zhou Shan laughed.
The third child trotted back, saw them laughing together, and asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing, Xiao Zhou Yi is bragging!"
Zhou Yi rolled his eyes and didn't take it seriously, he just said, "Why are you only making three stone benches in this yard, don't most people make four?"
"I don't know, the house given by Zhou Shan's father may be because the stone table is a bit small. It seems too much to match with four stone benches. It just so happens that we are three brothers, enough to sit."
