Favorite Planter King

Chapter 50

Having received the lesson, Ning Ge'er was honest, and when he went to collect the ducks in the afternoon, he didn't bother to chase them away. He stood and watched, but he didn't want to just watch from the field, so he followed on the field ridge.

Now the little duck has not learned the time to go back to the duck shed, and it will take a while to train.

They are driven to the Tiantou duck shed at this time of the afternoon every day, and then fed, so that they can develop the habit of swimming back to eat by themselves at this time, and it is also convenient for them to catch ducks.

Several of them are adults, each in charge of a field. When the ducks swim back to peck, they will stop the woven mobile fence, let them eat, and then go to the next field.

After the ducks are full, they are brought back to the cage and brought back.

It is very troublesome to put it in the morning and close it in the middle of the afternoon, but there is no way. It is not safe for ducks to be placed in the fields. Leaving aside the question of whether someone is stealing, mice and weasels are also an important threat to these ducks.

The next day, the county magistrate sent someone to ask them to go to the yamen, saying that the reward from the imperial court had arrived.

In the first month of the first month, the county magistrate got the Aquilegia car, and after the iron wreath was installed, it was urgently sent to the court. Now that four months have passed, the imperial court finally has news.

Yin Peinan and Zuo An went happily.

The county magistrate was obviously very happy, with a smile on his face, and it was rare to see them smile.

"The Caomin has seen the adults." The two saluted, looking at the expressions of the adults, they knew that the results should be good.

"Are you here?" The county magistrate walked out from behind the table and said to them, "The court's approval has come down, and I will send someone to call you right away, so you don't have to wait."

Yin Peinan and Zuo An I'm really not in a hurry, obviously the magistrate is in a hurry.

Yin Peinan asked: "Thank you for your understanding. Then, what did the imperial court say? Has it been verified?" The

county magistrate nodded with a smile, and said, "After the joint verification by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household, I also found someone to use it in the field. , proves that it is indeed a good tool for sowing."

Yin Peinan nodded: "It would be good if it proves useful."

"The imperial court attaches great importance to it, and the emperor personally ordered to reward you, and also ordered that it be widely spread in various places. Now the areas around the capital are all The drawings have been distributed to farmers." The county magistrate replied.

To popularize the Aquilegia car nationwide and reduce the workload of farmers, this was originally one of Yin Peinan's goals.

He said: "That's very good. Sir, here, have you started to distribute the drawings?"

"Yes, I have already ordered people to start drawing the drawings, and after the drawings are finished, they will be distributed to the villages below." County magistrate The lord nodded, and then said: "Oh, yes, here, this is the reward given to you by the imperial court."

After speaking, the magistrate turned around and picked up a tray covered with red cloth from the table and handed it to Yin Peinan.

Yin Peinan took it over and opened it to see that it was a plate of silver, five in a row, a total of four rows, two hundred taels of silver.

"Thank you, sir." The two thanked them, and Yin Peinan asked again, "Then, sir, can I help you a little bit?" The

county magistrate nodded with a smile, and said, "Thanks to you, we are also in Xinping County. The sage showed a face in front of him, and the county government also got some rewards, everyone is very happy, hahaha..."

It seems that there are still a lot of rewards. Yin Peinan and the two knew this clearly, and laughed with the magistrate for a while. "It's so good, hahaha..."

Then, the magistrate remembered what they said before and asked, "By the way, you said that it can increase production, how is it?"

Yin Peinan replied: "I can't see it now, and it will take a while to see the results. But don't worry, adults, we have been acting according to the plan, and if there are no accidents, there will be no problems."

"That's good, that's good. , then I can wait for your good news?"

"Okay." The

two of them left the county office with money. On the way, Yin Peinan asked Zuo An, "Dear, tell me, how much was the original reward?

"

Yin Peinan sighed and said, "Oh, the layers are peeled off, and we only have so much left."

Zuo An sneered: "Two hundred taels is not bad."

"How much did you think before?"

"One at most. Hundred taels." The

two walked out of the county office, talking and walking back, just as they passed the county school, they saw Zheng Xiaobao sitting on the carriage at the door dozing off, probably waiting for Zheng Wenhao to get out of school.

The two walked over, and Yin Peinan patted Zheng Xiaobao on the shoulder.

Zheng Xiaobao shuddered and woke up. He immediately raised his head and asked, "Young master, have you left the hall?"

Then he turned his head and looked, oh, it was not his own young master. Zheng Xiaobao rubbed his eyes: "Master Yin, Fulang Yin, it's you. Have you come to see my young master? He hasn't been released yet, so he'll have to wait for a while."

Yin Peinan: "It's okay, we just happened to pass by the county office, look. Come and have a look when you're here, and you'll be going back."

"So that's the case." Zheng Xiaobao said with a smile, "My young master also said that he will find you, Young Master Yin, in two days."

"Oh? Let him come, and I'll cook him game." Yin Peinan replied with a smile.

While the two were talking, someone started to come out from the entrance of the county school, and the Master was released.

Zheng Xiaobao looked at it and said, "Young Master Yin, it's time to leave the hall, why don't you just wait, the young master will come out soon. He said he has something to look for you."

"Okay. We'll wait for him." We'll see you then.

After a while, Zheng Wenhao came out with two books, but he came out with people along the way.

"...It's not me, Zheng Wenhao, I advise you, you don't have to go to the government office, and you can save a fortune." A young man wearing a white Confucian shirt mocked Zheng Wenhao rudely.

Zheng Wenhao's mouth was not idle, and he said: "Hey, let's talk nonsense. You should keep worrying about yourself. Your elder brother will be in spring next year. If you don't even get a job this year, what face do you have? Oh, If you are swept out of the house, you can come to me, everyone is a classmate, I can't bear to see you living on the street, I will give you two coins to buy a bun..."

Yin Peinan watched them quarrel, Have fun.

Zheng Xiaobao reminded them in a low voice: "The one next to the young master is Lin Yingda, the second young master of the Lin family."

Yin Peinan raised his eyebrows: "The one who made a bet with your young master?"

"Yes, yes, it's him." Xiaobao looked at him with admiration. Looking at Yin Peinan, he said, "Master Yin, you still remember him." At the beginning, he only said it once on the mountain, but Young Master Yin remembered it unexpectedly.

Yin Peinan nodded, Master Lin also contributed to his orchid career. "Does your young master have a good relationship with him?"

Zheng Xiaobao was very rude: "No, I often quarrel, no one obeys anyone, and no one likes anyone."

Zheng Wenhao and Lin Yingda came out all the way over there. Zheng Wenhao saw Yin Peinan and the others, and left Lin Yingda and ran over directly.

"Anan, brother-in-law, why are you here? Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Yin Peinan said, "No, it's just been here for a while. We were just passing by and we happened to meet you in the hall, so we said we'd see you and come back again.

" Come to work?" Zheng Wenhao saw that they were empty-handed, so he was carrying a burden and didn't buy anything, which was a bit strange.

"Yes, the county magistrate asked us to come. The court of the Aquilegia gave us a reward. Let's come and collect it.

" The flower thing." Zheng Wenhao was about to get into the carriage when Lin Yingda suddenly came over.

"Hey, Zheng Wenhao, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Lin Yingda looked at Yin Peinan and Zuo An, her eyes lit up when she saw Zuo An, such a handsome brother.

He immediately turned around and asked Zheng Wenhao, "Do you know him? Give me an introduction?"

Yin Peinan suddenly turned dark when he saw Zuo An

, and stood in front of Zuo An half a step forward, blocking Lin Yingda's sight.

Zheng Wenhao didn't deal with him in the first place, but he knew his temper even more, and he frowned and warned: "Who gave you face? I tell you Lin Yingda, this is my brother and brother-in-law, you give me all your careful thoughts. Clean, otherwise it will make you look good."

Lin Yingda is famous in the county town, and his face is thicker than the city wall. Relying on his family's wealth and power, he has molested many good brothers.

Oh, by the way, he has a special hobby, he only likes brothers, not girls.

Now that Zuo An looks so beautiful, with a delicate face and a stern expression, but there is a dash of amorous feelings between his eyebrows and eyes, it really attracts him. Although he was wearing a coarse cloth, it was okay, but he still felt that there was something special about it.

"Your brother, brother-in-law? Actually married?" Lin Yingda looked at Zuo An and sighed regretfully, then looked up and down at Yin Peinan and Zuo An, and said to Zheng Wenhao, "Your family can't keep going. Are you in the countryside?"

"Shut your stinky mouth." After Zheng Wenhao finished cursing, he ignored him and said to Yin Peinan and Zuo An, "A Nan, brother-in-law, come up and I'll see you off."

Yin Peinan He patted Zuo An on the back and motioned him to go up first, and then jumped into the carriage.

Before getting into the carriage, he gave Lin Yingda a stern look, his little finger moved, and a vine quietly wrapped around his ankles.

The driver drove the carriage forward.

"Hey, why are you walking so fast! I don't know what that guy's name is yet, ouch!" Lin Yingda shouted and stepped forward, but something suddenly caught her foot, and she fell down and ate shit.

Down the street.

"Hey, young master, why did you fall?!" Lin Yingda's servant quickly ran over to help him when he saw his young master fell.

"Bah, bah, bah! Damn it! What?!" Lin Yingda ate a mouthful of dirt, her mouth was broken, she cursed angrily while peeing blood, and turned to look at her feet. He felt that something had just caught on his ankle.

"...Master, what did you say?" The little servant followed his line of sight and saw nothing.

"..." Lin Yingda was also stunned, "Damn it, just now, something obviously stumbled on my foot!"

Damn it! How not!

The little servant: "...What are you talking about, Master? What?"

Lin Yingda was furious: "How do I know what it is! Still don't help me up!"

"Oh." Did the young master break his brain?

Hearing the movement behind, Zheng Wenhao glanced back and saw that Lin Yingda fell, and immediately slapped his legs, hahaha, and laughed out loud.

"Deserved!"

Zuo An also looked at it, and when he heard Lin Yingda's shout, he glanced at Yin Pei Nan with a smile.

Yin Peinan grabbed his daughter-in-law's hand and shook it, as if nothing happened.

Zuo An pursed his lips and smiled, holding his hand tightly.

"By the way, Brother Wenhao, I heard you say before, are you going to Fucheng to prepare for the exam?" Yin Peinan remembered hearing Zheng Wenhao and Lin Yingda talk about Fucheng before.

Zheng Wenhao admired Lin Yingda's embarrassment enough, turned his head and said with a smile: "Yes, I will be leaving in a few days. My father found a teacher for me over there and asked me to go ahead and give me more lectures. "

Yin Peinan smiled and said: "Then we wish Brother Wen Hao a happy recovery in advance!"

Zuo An also said: "I wish you success."

"Hahaha, then I will give you auspicious words, thank you in advance. After speaking, Zheng Wenhao touched his head again and smiled: "But you don't have to have expectations for me. You know, I'm really not good at this. If it wasn't for my father, I wouldn't even want to take the test."

Yin Pei Nan laughed. He knew that Zheng Wenhao was really not interested in studying and fame, so he said: "I will have regrets in the future, so it's better to take the exam. Otherwise, after studying for so long, I didn't take the exam once. Not happy."

"Hey, it makes sense to say that, hahaha."

Zheng Wenhao found that chatting with Yin Peinan and Zuo An always found some interesting ideas, he thought it was very interesting.

The three chatted for a while, and when they were about to reach the city gate, Zuo An asked, "Brother Wenhao, you said you had something to tell us before, what was it?"

"Oh, my head, I almost forgot." Zheng Wenhao patted his head. , said angrily: "That's the case, didn't you think before that you wanted to sell Suguanhe Ding orchid in other state capitals?"

Yin Peinan nodded and said, "Yes, I wanted to ask you about it before, county magistrate. Have you sent your flowers out? If he does, we can start selling them."

"I sent them out. He was afraid of being robbed by others, and he was afraid that he would keep the flowers and buy them. I went to the government office in person the next day."

"Oh, that's fine, then we can sell it with confidence."

Zheng Wenhao said, "I just want to tell you about this. My family has a business in Qingzhou Fucheng next door. It's Buzhuang, and there is another cousin over there, who can still eat in Qingzhou Fucheng. I wrote a letter to my cousin before, asking him to help prepare the flower viewing banquet. He agreed and replied two days ago that he had contacted him. Let me bring flowers there."

Yin Peinan and Zuo An were pleasantly surprised when they heard the words.

Yin Peinan asked, "Is it possible to find it so soon?"

"Yes, just bring the flowers, but there is a problem." Zheng Wenhao said hesitantly.

Yin Peinan asked, "What's the problem? Brother Wen Hao, tell me."

Zheng Wenhao touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "Didn't my father let me go to Fucheng, so I can't go with you. But don't worry, I've arranged everything and let Xiaobao take you there. After that, I'll go to my house's house, I've already explained to the head of the house, and he will treat you well."

It turned out to be this, Yin Peinan shook his head and said, "It's fine, we can go there by ourselves. When you go to Fucheng, Xiaobao will follow you? Let him follow you, we'll be fine."

"No, no, it's just a matter of ten days. When the time comes, Xiaobao can go to Fucheng to find me. "

Then we are so embarrassed, you have already helped so much." "Why are you being polite

to me?" Zheng Wenhao thought about it and said, "My cousin, I have a very good relationship with his husband. It's better to give him something than to give his husband. I heard my mother say that his husband also likes flowers, so He was so active in helping to prepare the flower viewing banquet, probably because his husband wanted to see the Suguan Lotus Ding. So you should just bring an extra pot of flowers." Yin Peinan asked, "Then what kind of flowers does his husband like? " Oh, I really don't remember this. I'll ask my aunt and let Xiaobao tell you tomorrow." "That's fine. Thank you brother Wenhao." "You're welcome, my brother." Zheng Wenhao They sent them out two miles outside the city gate. The two did not want him to send them away any more, so he had to go back quickly. Zheng Wenhao just turned around. The sun just went down when they got home.

















Zhao Xiu'e and the others just dragged the duck back, and they were very happy to hear that they got two hundred taels of silver. Zhao Xiu'e's thinking is that no matter how much silver is rewarded, it's good to have money anyway.

But when I heard that they were going to go to Qingzhou next door to sell flowers in the next two days, I was a little worried. After all, Yin Peinan had never been out of the county since he was a child.

Yin Peinan comforted them: "It's alright, auntie, little daddy, Master Zheng sent his servant to take us there." The

two families discussed the long-term trip.

But before they could set off, something happened at home at night, and Yin Peinan was the only one on the last trip.

Before going to bed that night, Wen Yi carried the precious flowers back to the main room as usual, closed the doors and windows, checked the quilt for Zuo Baoying, and went back to the room to lie down.

In the middle of the night, two men came out of their yard and

stopped under the walls of the yard.

"Is it here? Are you sure?" the taller man asked in a low voice.

"It's here. I came in by drinking water two days ago. There are a lot of flowers growing in the yard. The house is newly built, and you can see that the wall

is so high." The stature immediately took a step forward with one leg, and then clasped his hands and fingers together, palms up, to give another person a foot.

When the short man in the back saw this, he stepped on the palm of the man's palm, and climbed up the one-person-high fence with the man's strength.

Seeing this, the tall man picked up the hoe and basket on the ground and slipped in.

After the two entered the yard, they went straight to the flowerbed by the wall, and began to dig flowers by the moonlight.

After digging two plants and putting them in the basket, the tall man asked, "Which one is the most expensive one? What is the orchid one?

" The ones here are all in flower pots, and the ones here are not that expensive. They must have moved back."

"Are you sure there are orchids that sold for more than a thousand taels?" The tall man stopped and asked.

"Yes, I'm sure. I heard from my cousin's son that he works in a wealthy family. I heard that the head of his family attended the Zheng family's flower viewing banquet, and the county magistrate spent 1,110 taels to buy it. Yes . That flower was taken by Yin Peinan. His family still has it, but it is kept in this house."

"Okay, shh, let's go and have a look." The tall man nodded his chin toward the house.

The short man is also brave. He knew that the family had a wedding a while ago, and his brother got married. Now there are only two people left, and one of them is a little girl.

The two surreptitiously tiptoed to the window. This room is Zuo An's room, and no one lives in it now.

The tall man took out a small knife from his arms. The knife's blade was very thin. He inserted the knife into the crack of the window, opened the window, and then lifted the window, and the short man turned in.

It was very dark in the room, and the short man couldn't tell which flower was which, but he didn't dare to use fire, so he could only touch the darkness.

When he got to the main room, the short man saw that there seemed to be a flower pot on the ground, so he groped for it. He secretly smuggled it out from the window with a pot in one hand and gave it to the tall man...

When Wen Yi slept until midnight, he suddenly heard a rustling noise in the main room. He thought it was a mouse and didn't care too much.

There are many rats in this country, which is a common occurrence. In order to prevent the rats from biting the flowers, he deliberately sprinkled rat poison around.

But after a while, he listened to the movement again. It didn't seem like the sound of the usual rat scurrying around, but it sounded like someone...

a thief!

He woke up instantly.

A thief has come into the house!

How to do?

Let him steal away, or go out and catch the thief?

How many people are there? Can you beat yourself?

Wen Yi's mind was blank, and his hands were clutching the sheet tightly.

He sat up quietly, got out of bed quietly, reached for a pair of scissors on the dresser, and leaned against the door to listen to the movement outside.

Listening carefully now, he heard that the other party should be stealing the flower pot, and it should have come in through the window of Xiao An's room.

Actually stealing flowers!

Wen Yi suddenly became angry.

These flowers are very expensive, and they are not his, but Yin Peinan's. He just helps to keep them.

Fortunately, the four pots of Su Guan He Ding are all in their own rooms!

But the two pots of expensive and famous peony and chrysanthemum were on the table, and they were bought for one hundred and fifty taels of silver!

If it is stolen, how should I explain it to Anan? !

Wen Yi was furious in his heart. After confirming that the other party was only one person in the room, he quietly opened the door while the other party picked up the flower pot and walked to the

room ran over.

He is very familiar at home, and now he has adapted to this dark environment and can see each other's shadow.

That little thief is walking around holding two pots of flowers and cats!

Wen Yi rushed over and raised a long pole and hit the thief hard.

"Little thief! I'll kill you! Steal my flowers! Somebody, there's a thief—catch the thief! Somebody, catch the thief!"

Wen Yi shouted while beating, and there were five or six near his house. My husband has neighbors, and they can hear him when he calls.

The thief was hit on the shoulder by the long pointed shoulder, which caused pain in an instant, and he staggered forward and almost fell. Hearing Wen Yi shouting again, he was afraid of attracting others, so he turned around and smashed the flowerpot in Wen Yi's direction, preventing Wen Yi from going down, and hurriedly ran to the window.

"Quick, come out!" The tall man pulled the window and shouted quickly.

"Catch the thief - catch the thief!" Wen Yi kept shouting, beating the thief all the time, not only beating, but also poking the thief's back with his pointed head to prevent him from escaping to the window.

Wen Yi's long pointed pole was very long, the thief could not get close to Wen Yi with his bare hands, and had no strength to fight back.

Zuo Baoying was woken up by such a big movement, opened the door and screamed in horror: "Little Daddy!"

"Yingying, don't come out, close the doors and windows to hide! Quick!" Wen Yi quickly explained .

Zuo Baoying was also clever, and quickly turned around and closed the door, then went to put down the window, plug it in, and then got into the closet, hugged her knees tightly, opened her eyes, and listened to the sounds outside.

There are thieves, so scary!

Wen Yi shouted so loudly that several households near Wen Yi's house heard it. The men put on their shoes, but they didn't even bother to put on a piece of clothes, and rushed out with hoes, axes, sticks, etc.

"Where's where? Who's calling for a thief!"

"It's Wen Yi's voice! Hurry up!"

"Catch the thief! Old lady, hurry up and inform Yin Peinan and Zuo An!"

"Call more people!"

There was moonlight outside , being able to see the road clearly, the villagers came to Zuo An's house looking for the sound, and happened to meet the tall man who ran out of the courtyard with a basket of flowers on his back.

This disloyal guy left his companions and wanted to run away on his own.

"Who?! Dare to come to Nanpo Village to steal something! Kill you!"

"Little thief! If you do something wrong, you want to steal something! I'll kill you!" The

villagers rushed up and started fighting!

The movement became louder and louder, Wen Yi kept shouting, many people got up, and many people were already running towards Zuo An's house.

Yin Peinan and Zuo An were also awakened.

"Why is it so noisy? Is there something wrong?" Zuo An arched his head into her husband's arms and muttered dissatisfiedly.

Yin Peinan opened his eyes and listened carefully, and said, "It seems that there are thieves!"

"Are there thieves?" Zuo An instantly sobered up and asked, "Who is it?!"

Before Yin Peinan could speak, a voice came out. shouted.

"Brother An! Zuo An! Your house has been robbed! Your little daddy is shouting, get up!"

"Little daddy!"

The two exclaimed and climbed out of bed in an instant. They didn't even bother to put on their shoes, and the two rushed out.
