Shennong Pharmaceutical Field

Chapter 44

Fifth Grandma was originally trying to comfort Yao Tiantian who was left behind by Da Zhuang and the others, but when she saw that Yao Runzhi really took out the rope in a decent manner, Fifth Grandma was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Yao, you, you What is this for?"

"Fifth grandma, our Yangjiatun is not big or small. There are more than 50 households in total. Our barren hills are like this. We must measure the hillsides suitable for planting to see how many households should be divided. In this way, everyone will have fewer conflicts in the future." Yao Runzhi casually shook the long rope in his hand, and said with a smile.

This idea is good. Yao Tiantian wholeheartedly agrees with Uncle Yao Runzhi's idea of ​​measuring usable barren hills. To do things, it is necessary to plan ahead in such a way, to measure and divide clearly in advance, so that manpower can be arranged in an orderly manner.

Moreover, look at this afternoon, Yao Runzhi changed out of the elegant long gown, and specially put on a set of neat shorts and shorts, and the long rope he threw out casually. Yao Tiantian also knows that this person who is used to sitting in the classroom Uncle Yao Runzhi came prepared. He said the words of measuring the land did not come on a whim, but had been prepared and planned long ago.

Thinking clearly, Yao Tiantian temporarily put aside her curiosity about Fusheng and the three of them. She took the initiative to pick up the end of the rope, and said cheerfully, "Okay, I'll follow my uncle's order, and you can just tell me."

Yao Runzhi smiled in satisfaction, pointed to the barren hill not far away, and said boldly, "Let's go, let's start from that barren hill."

"Okay." Yao Tiantian nodded, and an idea came to mind when she rolled her eyes, "However, please wait for me for a while, uncle."

As she spoke, Yao Tiantian ran towards the small valley with palm trees under her uncle's puzzled gaze.After a while, Yao Tiantian ran under the lush palm tree. After searching carefully under the tall tree, she was lucky enough to find a freshly fallen palm leaf. She picked up another thin strip of hard rock, and she showed a satisfied and satisfied smile on her soft and cute little face.

Yao Tiantian couldn't remember how the Dai people made the Beiye scriptures and kept them for a long time, but it was much easier and less troublesome to carve lines on such fresh palm trees than to carve them on bamboo slips with a carving knife.

Holding the stone strip and the large palm shell leaves in hand, Yao Tiantian trotted back again, while the fifth grandma was talking to her uncle Yao Runzhi for some reason, and she was still gesturing in the direction Yao Tiantian was running towards.

The Fifth Grandma saw Yao Tiantian turning out holding the palm leaves, and immediately said, "Look, Mr. Yao, it's such a strange plant, Tianniu, she ran back in a hurry, so she went to fetch the leaves from the tree." what."

Seeing the rocks and palm leaves in Yao Tiantian's hands, Yao Runzhi showed a rare look of curiosity and confusion, "Hey, what is Tiantian doing with these?"

"This..." Yao Tiantian shook the palm leaf and the hard stone bar in her hand, proudly sold off, "This is my magic weapon, and you will understand later."

Yao Runzhi's eyes ignited with a cluster of light, and he smiled dotingly, "It's really a ghost with the size of a little ghost, okay, can we start working this time?"

"Okay, let's start." Yao Tiantian obediently picked up the other end of the rope, stretched the long rope straight, and walked towards the barren hillside overgrown with weeds.

Yao Runzhi and Yao Tiantian reached an agreement tacitly. They stretched the long rope and measured it carefully. After each measurement, Yao Runzhi carefully recorded it on the bamboo slips with a carving knife, while Yao Tiantian Carved on the palm shell leaves she picked up impromptu.

Just when Yao Tiantian was seriously engaged in measuring the wasteland, and was so busy that she almost forgot the time, sweet greetings came from behind her, "Sister Tianniu, sister Tianniu... ..."

It's Fumei!Yao Tiantian was stunned for a moment, and she had already identified the owner of the voice as Second Aunt Yang's youngest daughter, Fusheng's younger sister, Fumei.

The little girl is not very old, but her identity is a little sensitive. Was it because her mother, Aunt Yang, who was pregnant with a ghost, sent her here, or was Fu Sheng sent her to tip off the news?

Yao Tiantian was puzzled, put down the rope at hand, straightened her waist, and answered loudly, "I'm here."

Following the sound, Xiao Fumei ran over quickly, panting heavily while looking around.She searched around but didn't find the person she was looking for, and gave a strange 'huh', "Sister Tianniu, aren't my brothers here? Where did he go? It's too bad, I'll be scolded by my mother when I go back ah."

"You came to see your brother? What's wrong?" Yao Tiantian didn't answer, but followed Fumei's words.

"This, this..." Fumei tilted her head and thought for a while in embarrassment, but she still chose to believe Yao Tiantian. She stomped her little foot fiercely and said hurriedly, "I saw, I saw that Uncle Yang Haifu quietly called Many people, he seems to have sent someone out to buy something, saying he wants it, he says he wants to get things done before Mr. Yao. I'm worried about my brother, so, so..."

"Miss Fu, don't worry. Mister has sent Fusheng and the others to handle some errands. It's the same if you tell Mr. Yao about it. You're such a good boy." Grandma Fifth praised with a smile.

"But, grandma, the members of Yang Haifu's faction have already left the village. Sir, is there still time, sir?" Fumei asked anxiously with her big beautiful eyes flashing.

"My dear Fu, sir, I can make it in time. Yang Haifu is holding the village's life-saving money in his hand, and he should go shopping." Yao Runzhi's voice was still unhurried, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth still revealed his intentions. good mood.

In fact, the reason why Yang Haifu sent people to purchase in such a hurry must be what Fusheng, Dazhuang, and Gouwa did to make him make such a decision. Yao Tiantian doesn't know how they did it, but this The method must be very effective, with immediate results. As soon as the uncle made a move, Yang Haifu was stimulated to act immediately.

The curiosity in Yao Tiantian's heart was about to move again, she bent down slightly, and pretended to ask casually, "My dear girl, when you came, did anything special happen in the village?"

"Something special?" Fumei tilted her head and thought for a while, then she said in confusion, "Uncle Yang Haifu sent someone out to buy things in a hurry, and everything else is as usual."

"It's the same as usual?" Yao Tiantian frowned, and muttered to herself, "It's strange, why is there no movement at all?"

Yao Tiantian lowered her head and pondered, but Fumei became interested in the palm shell in her hand. She carefully held the large palm shell in her hand, looked at it carefully, and said "huh" curiously "Hey, what is this thing? I have been to this barren mountain so many times, why have I never seen it before? Is it something new brought by Sister Tianniu from her hometown?"

"Uh..." Yao Tiantian, who was in deep thought, was brought back to her thoughts by Fumei's curious question. She raised her eyes in astonishment, and just saw her uncle Yao Runzhi's scrutiny. Yao Tiantian's heart skipped a beat. It has nothing to do with her, but being looked at by her uncle, Yao Tiantian is still a little hairy, as if Yao Runzhi's deep gaze can penetrate her heart, and see through the bottom of her heart. .

Yao Tiantian was terrified, Grandma Wu smiled and helped her out, she took Fumei's hand, and explained loudly with some pride, "Fumei guessed wrong this time, this thing grows here On the piece of mountain, it was my grandma who discovered it. But today, the girl Tian Niu went to Ye Zi and scratched it with a stone strip, so grandma doesn't know what she is messing with."

Following Grandma Fifth's words, Yao Runzhi and Fu Meide's eyes focused on Yao Tiantian's face again. Yao Tiantian, who originally wanted to show off, also surrendered under Yao Runzhi's scrutiny. The palm leaf in my sister's hand, she resignedly explained, "Yesterday, yesterday, I was teased by that master for not knowing how to engrave bamboo slips. Today I saw such a wide and thick leaf, so I wanted to use it to engrave. I will tell everyone after I have the results in a few days, now that Fumei is so curious, I, I will tell you in advance, so don't tell others."

While Yao Tiantian was talking, she quietly looked at the expression of her uncle Yao Runzhi. Although she was explaining her words to Fu Mei and Fifth Grandma, she was actually explaining them to her uncle. Misunderstand or something, that would be too bad.

At the same time, Yao Tiantian also had her own doubts in her heart. Since they are now engraved with bamboo slips, what happened to the thread-bound books collected in the uncle's room?Obviously, the paper has already been published, why is it not popularized and promoted?What are those thread-bound books in my uncle's eyes?What is it in the eyes of the world?What would such a contradictory and mysterious uncle think of his simplified Bayeux lettering?

Yao Tiantian didn't speak for a while, but Fumei's eyes flashed brightly, "Sister Tianniu, tell me, can you say this thing can replace the bamboo slips? It's really great. I'll ask my mother to go when I get home. Don't be bulky." The bamboo slips, can I also read and read with my husband?" As she spoke, Fu Mei turned her begging eyes to the silent Yao Runzhi.

Hearing this, Yao Runzhi smiled warmly, "If sister Fu wants to learn how to read, she can follow her brother. Sir, think about it, your mother will agree this time."

"Really? That's great." Xiaofumei jumped up happily, "Sister Tianniu, let's pick some more leaves like this, I'll take them home and show my mother."
