Chapter 83 (2/2)
First of all, I'll have a good time this year, and then I'll ask for next year's.
Autumn wind, jujube red.
Xindu jujube is famous in the three dynasties. It is one of the tributes sent to the palace by Jizhou in the past dynasties. Xindu people are proud of it. They specially set up a date picking Festival. Every year, when the date is red, every family will lead their children to pick dates. Large families go to their own mountain to pick dates and enjoy the autumn scenery. Ordinary people either go to pick the wild jujube on the mountain or plant two jujube trees in their own yard.
Fu family did not have jujube mountain, but Fu Rong went to Qixia mountain, the best jujube producing place in Xindu. The whole mountain is owned by the government. Fruit trees are planted all over the mountain. After picking the dates, the best ones are sent to the capital. The rest is divided by the officials in the city.
The tribute is a big event. Fu Pinyan has to go and have a look. By the way, he takes Fu Chen and Fu Rong with him. He is busy with his business and asks his brother and sister to go inside.
Xu's brother and sister Xu are 11 years old, and they haven't been here for a long time.
The servant went to report to Fu Pinyan.
Fu Pinyan understood what they were coming for. When they met, he said with a smile: ”is the son of heaven coming to pick dates?”
Xu Yan looked at his sister, modest smile: ”Xi'er is fond of playing, do not know if uncle here can be convenient?”
”Convenient and convenient, the son of a family and the county Lord can play at will.” Fu Pinyan asked the two men to enter the mountain, and ordered the guards to prepare the bamboo poles and baskets for Xu Yan's followers. Seeing them leave, Fu Pinyan felt his beautiful beard for two years. He wondered in secret that this son of God used to call him lord Fu. How can he change his mouth today?
Because you need him to enter the mountain?
No, not to mention the prefectures. The Qi family need not be so polite if they want to enter the mountain.
But I don't know where Xu Yanduan Fang Youli, there has been a rude ”jujube thief” quietly slipped in.
