Chapter 240 There are always sober people
In a small village on the lower reaches of the Weishui River, a young man was separated from several men from the same village and walked towards his house at the end of the village.
This village is small, but almost every family in the village makes a living by fishing. Although they cannot make a fortune, as long as they are not busy with food in the war, there is no problem with some extra money.
Just like this year, the locust plague passed through, but the small village was not affected at all. Even the elderly in the village have helped the victims many times, which shows how rich this village is.
But the young man in front of him entered the city today and was so decadent.
"Dad, are you at home? Dad..."
"Erzhu's father, you're back. Grandpa has just fallen asleep. You can't argue with Grandpa. The food is in the pot. I'll bring it to you."
"What do you know, a woman? Our family's wealth has been broken. I still have the heart to eat. Dad... Come out quickly... Dad..."
When the young man heard his wife's words, he thought of the news he heard in Chengzhong today. He irritated and said impatiently to his wife, and then continued to call his father out.
"Boy, have you not listened to me and leaked all the secrets of our family? Didn't I tell you that if you are not careful about this secret, it will cause our family to be killed! Why don't you listen?"
The man was still calling his father, and suddenly something came from the house. Then a gray-haired old man rushed out of the house, raised the wooden stick in his hand and beat the man, beating and scolding him.
The man who was beaten did not dare to fight back, so he took it against him several times.
As for his wife, he didn't dare to care about it. Soon the man's mother was also alarmed and walked out of the house.
When the man saw his mother coming out, he dared to hide symbolically and explained to his father, "Dad, I did not reveal the secrets of our family, but His Majesty the Emperor has issued an order to make the secret public, saying that this technique was passed on to Anguo Hou. I heard that he was not prohibiting the people from fishing and selling carp.
Why did you say that Anguo Hou told His Majesty the bow fish technique? His Majesty also made it public. Isn’t this a smashing of our family’s job? By the way, the name of the bow fish technique was still given by Anguo Hou… Dad, you said……”
"Boy? What do you know? This matter is really as you said. Then An Guohou is simply the benefactor of the people of our world! Say? Is this matter true?" After saying that, the old man looked at his son and asked with a serious face.
"Dad? Are you..."
"I asked you to tell me if what you said just now is true?" Seeing that his son wanted to say something, the old man interrupted him directly and asked him sternly.
"Dad? Everything my son said is true? You………”
"Old woman, almost kneel down and thank your Majesty for your kindness, and thank your great kindness to Anguo Hou"
What else did the man want to say, but his father had already called everyone in the family? Let them kneel down in the direction of Chang'an with him.
Although the man was puzzled, he still pulled his wife and children? Kneeled down with his parents.
After three knocks, the old man stood up and looked at his son who was still confused at this moment. He sat directly on the threshold and explained to his son, "Silly boy? An Guohou's move is to make a lifelong journey for our fishermen! Although we have mastered the technique of bowing and fishing before, we are worried that others will take it away? He never dares to tell anyone, and even make a living by making a living, so it is untied very far from the city.
But now that this technique is made public, we will not hide it from now on, and can be used openly.
As for what you are worried about, is that a matter?
You don’t know how difficult it is to fish. Are you still worried that others will cut off our path after learning this archery technique?
Hum, you're so short-sighted!"
After listening to his father's explanation, the man became alive and stared at his father with wide eyes. "Dad, if it is really as you said, even if there are more people in this technique and the price of live fish has dropped, as long as we can catch more fish, or even dig a pond here to raise some fish, right?"
"That's right, yes, stinky brat, just when you still have some inspiration, yes, just do it, let's dig a fish pond to raise fish." When the old man heard his son's words, he slapped his thigh and stood up, happily announcing to the family to dig a fish pond to raise fish.
And he just did it and went to get the tools immediately, regardless of whether it was almost dark at this time.
"His father, it's almost dark this day, and my child is going to sell fish in the city, so he hasn't eaten hot food for a day. You can let him eat first. You two will go fishing tomorrow. Gui Niang and I will dig. When you come back, our whole family will dig together. Do you think this is OK?" The man's mother stopped the old man and said his thoughts.
When the old man heard this, he was not excited to get the tools when he saw the weather. Instead, he looked at his son with relief and shouted to his daughter-in-law, "Great Madam Gui, go get food for Erzhu's father, rest after breakfast, and do what your mother said tomorrow."
When Gui Niang heard this, she immediately went to get food for her man happily. When the man heard his father's words, she also touched her head honestly, sat on the small stool in the yard, and began to look forward to a good future.
Like their family, there are still many in the two counties in Chang'an, Wannian, but many of them just think about the benefits of this archery technique. They are the same as their family, and there are very few people who want to dig fish ponds to raise fish.
Of course, there are many people who understand the benefits of this, but they can't figure it out, and there are also many people who scold Wang Xuan there.
But this has nothing to do with Wang Xuan, and even if he knows, he won't care.
Even this matter fermented in Chang'an City for an afternoon, but the people from Anguo Hou's Mansion had not received any news yet.
Wang Xuan even finished exercising for breakfast and slept until the afternoon. This was because he slept too much during the day. Even if it was dark, he was holding Zheng Guanyin Nagu to play cards with him and killing time?
As for Li Xin and the others, Wang Xuan didn't dare to let them accompany him. After all, all three of them were pregnant, so they had to rest early.
But after playing this card for a long time, I feel a little tired of it.
"I won't play anymore, I won't play anymore. You said this is a mess! There's nothing to do this night, I'm so annoying. You said that Cheng Lao Yao is so diligent in our family, why is it okay today but he doesn't come? Is this a big deal?" Once again, he lost the card because of annoyance. Wang Xuan threw the card in depression and complained to Zheng Guanyin and Nagu.
Facing Wang Xuan’s complaints, Zheng Guanyin and Nagu couldn’t say anything. They couldn’t pull Wang Xuan and say that!
