Chapter 1560: Dandelion


This is a small village in the past, there is a small lake at the head of the village, and in the early winter, there are no people by the lake, only two women are washing clothes.

Gao Jingyan looked at the compass and said to Zeng Guang: "This is it, let's go and have a look." ” The two dismounted and led their horses to the village.

"We need to raise some dry food and horse feed, otherwise we won't be able to move an inch."

The sound of horses' hooves alarmed the two women, who squatted on the edge of the lake, turned their heads to look, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

” Gao Jingyan arched his hand and said: "Sister-in-law, the two of us have traveled so far, there are road guides, and I also have some money, and I want to go into the village to buy some dry food and horse feed." ” When the two women saw that they were wearing green shirts, they smiled and said, "It's a scholar!"

That's fine, let's go into the village, and then find the old man to arrange it for you. ” Gao Jingyan thanked the two women, and then entered the village.

It is a village of more than 100 households, with mud houses, wooden houses, and even brick houses.

As soon as they entered the village, the children ran over and followed curiously.

Most of the clothes worn by these children had patches, and Gao Jingyan noticed that most of their fingernails were black, indicating that they did not pay attention to hygiene.

There are not many outsiders here, so after hearing the children's voices, many people came out of each family.

"Young man, what are you doing in our Xiaoge Village?"

An old man frowned and asked, Gao Jingyan saw that he was wearing clothes without patches, and there was some majesty between his eyebrows, so he said: "Old man, the two boys are here to study, passing by your village, and want to buy some dry food and forage. ” The old man looked at them suspiciously, and ordered, "Go and call Li Lao Er." ” "Third uncle, people call him Li Chi, and now calling him Li Lao Er will be scolded by him."

A big man said with a smile, and when the old man's eyes swept over, he went to the village in a sneering manner.

The old man turned around and asked, "Where are you from?"

” Gao Jingyan arched his hand and said: "Old man, the two boys are from Jinling, Zeng Guang, lead the way to the old man." ” Zeng Guang took out the road and showed it to the old man, who probably knew some words, checked it himself, and nodded: "It's true, but if it's a scholar, wait for Li Lao Er to ask." ” Gao Jingyan smiled: "That's exactly how it should be." ” The children all looked at the two horses curiously, and the bold ones wanted to get closer to touch them, and then they were scolded by the adults and went back stupidly.

Those women all gathered together, pointing at Gao Jingyan and the two, and laughter came from time to time.

The old man frowned and shouted at the women: "The woman's family hurry up and go home to clean up, what are you looking at outside?"

” "I know the third uncle!"

The women went home with a smile, which showed the prestige of the old man.

This is the village elder, Gao Jingyan knows it, there are just two people over there, one of them is the big man who went to call people, and the young man behind him was wearing a green shirt, even if there were some patches, but his expression was different from that of the villagers, as if he was a little depressed.

"Second Li is here!"

As soon as the old man beckoned, the young man immediately trotted over, and then asked, "Third uncle, is there something wrong?"

” The old man pointed at Gao Jingyan and said, "These two said that they came to study abroad, and you have also studied for a few years, so you went to entertain them." ” The young man glanced at Gao Jingyan and the others, and then arched his hand and said, "Under Li Chi, dare to ask the two of you about your intentions." ” Gao Jingyan arched his hand and said: "In the lower Gao Jingyan, this is the younger brother Zeng Guang in the next, the two of us are from Jinling, and we came out to study and want to see some human sophistication." ” Li Chi nodded and said, "Where are you two studying?"

” Zeng Guang's complexion changed slightly, and Gao Jingyan had already said calmly: "Zhixing Academy." ” Li Chi's eyes shrank and asked, "But the one from Xinghebo?"

” Gao Jingyan nodded and said, "If your village is inconvenient, then the two of us can leave and will not bother." ” Zeng Guang looked around vigilantly, and then made preparations.

Science is the enemy of those who read.

If Li Chi shouted that they were here to deceive people, Gao Jingyan was worried that he and Zeng Guang would die silently in this village, and then disappear somewhere, waiting for hundreds of years before being dug up.

But it is more likely that it will disappear from this world and no one will know about it.

Gao Jingyan stared at Li Chi, if something was wrong, he would immediately get on the horse, and then take out the military stab and kill it!

The old man saw that the atmosphere was wrong, so he asked, "Second Li, what are they doing?"

” The men who were watching coldly around slowly approached, and Gao Jingyan stretched out his hand to put it on the burden behind the horse, and there was a short army thorn in the baggage.

Zeng Guang's face was pale, and his left leg moved slightly, which was a prelude to preparing to get on the horse.

Li Chi suddenly smiled and said, "Third uncle, they are scholars. ” The old man sighed, and then said, "Then look, they say that if you have money, you will have accommodation and dry food if you give money." ” "Third uncle, my family has dry food and the bed is clean!"

"Third uncle, my family just bought meat yesterday and didn't finish it!"

"Third Uncle ......"

Suddenly, the men around them began to scramble for this resource.

The old man frowned and said, "Li Lao Er is a scholar, you know a fart!"

Go back and let Li Lao Er receive you. ” The men looked disappointed, but no one dared to dwell on them anymore, so they dispersed.

"Thank you, Brother Li."

Gao Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief, but Li Chi said: "I don't have meat at home, but the bed is clean."

He smiled self-deprecatingly, pointing to the patches on his clothes.

Zeng Guang smiled: "Thank you Brother Li, we brought dried meat, if you don't dislike it, you can boil some porridge and drink." ” Li Chi took them home, and his parents warmly greeted them when they heard that they were scholars.

After greetings, Li Chi took them to his room.

Li Chi's home is very simple, with three wooden houses and two earthen houses.

And his room was the best, but it was a bed, a table and a chair, all of which were a little old.

"That's it at home, just sit down."

The three of them sat down randomly, and Li Chi said with a little gloom between his eyebrows: "I studied for five years, I failed the exam, I didn't have that talent, and my family couldn't hold on, so I went home and followed the farming." ” Zeng Guang sighed: "If you don't pass the test, it's useless, if you are smart, you can still have some future, and if you are not smart, it will be a waste of your life." ” probably met Gao Jingyan and Zeng Guang, who were also scholars, Li Chi smiled bitterly: "I also wanted to study science in the past, but I just went home to farm, but I couldn't lift my spirits anymore, and I just wanted to forget the days of studying in my dreams." ” Gao Jingyan said with a straight face: "This is the dream of becoming a master, Brother Li, everyone has such thoughts!"

” Zeng Guang said quietly: "The two of us came all the way and taught a lot of students in Suzhou Mansion, and then set off along the way, and taught some in the two villages in front of us. ” Gao Jingyan pretended not to pay attention to Li Chi's expression, and when he saw the expression of struggle on his face, he said: "Science is closely related to people, and it is not useless learning. ” Li Chi smiled bitterly: "My family has exhausted my savings for studying, and I can't afford to read!"

” Gao Jingyan gave Zeng Guang a look, and then said: "When we came out, the mountain chief once said that science is practical learning, and you can't use money to set a threshold. ” Zeng Guang took out three books from his baggage and said: "These are the cheapest paper prints, not expensive, just to be affordable, Brother Li can take it and take a look, if you are interested, you can discuss it with the two of us." ” Li Chi took the book and looked at it casually, Gao Jingyan gave Zeng Guang a look, and the two quietly went out to wash.

After washing, the two talked outside.

"He is hopeless in the imperial examination, we are a road, as long as he learns, he can use scientific principles to help do something in the village, and the children in this village will naturally follow in the future."

"When those people in the village go to relatives, they will naturally show off, and then they will attract curiosity, and science will slowly develop here."

Gao Jingyan's eyes showed a look of longing, and said: "This is the dandelion that the mountain chief said, where the wind blows, the seeds will take root......

A gust of wind blew, and a dead leaf on the ground was rolled up and fluttered in the air...
