Chapter 319: Getting Beaten Everyday
Chapter 319: Getting Beaten Everyday
Ever since the bagging incident, all the idle people in Kyoto have been secretly tightening their belts. As more and more people were beaten, these people realized that they had no way to solve the problem on their own, so they also showed off their magical powers.
Some went out to show off their brutality and violence, wanting to kill a chicken to scare the monkey, but they failed to kill the chicken and were beaten even worse by the 'Hou'. Some went back home to their fathers, but unfortunately their fathers made their position clear and could do nothing to help them. They were told to either come back to study or go out and get beaten, it was their own choice. Some went back to throw a tantrum at their mothers and grandmothers, but after just a few days, these people began to hesitate, and it was obvious that they were not prepared to stand up for them.
That can only be explained by being isolated and helpless, but after all, he is a young man and it is not so easy to admit defeat. I don’t believe that you can beat me up every day if I go out of the house every day, right?
The reality is that they really get beaten every day. They agreed to go out on the same day but in different places, but they still got beaten, and it was hard to guard against. They reasonably suspected that their father at home had become accomplices with them, and they didn't know how many people there were. Those who were beaten really wanted to curse, saying that they couldn't bully people like this.
Under such circumstances of being attacked from all sides, some of the timid ones have already stayed at home reading books. It is really because their bodies are not as strong as those men's fists!
Of course, there are still some people who are resisting stubbornly and vowing to fight to the end. Shu Xiaoxiao beats these people. Even if they are taken away by the master now, Shu Xiaoxiao is not worried, because these people can't hold on for long.
Originally, you had a playboy, and I had a playboy too. You have it, I have it, and everyone has it. How fair! Anyway, we can afford it, so no one cares too much. But now your playboy has reformed and started to study, while my playboy is still asking for a beating without thinking. How can we feel balanced?
Looking at their own rebellious sons, these fathers silently prepared colorful sacks. Others have started to study, and they think that the rebellious children are not doing their jobs properly, and that they must have been beaten too lightly, so they don't mind doing it themselves.
Moreover, this way I don’t have to face the protective daughter-in-law and old mother at home. Why didn’t I think of this before!
As a result, those who were still holding on were beaten even more severely, and even Uncle Ge, who had his job robbed, was happy to watch the show.
"Master, are...are we going out today?" the servant asked timidly.
These days, the young master gets beaten every time he goes out. It's new wounds added to old ones, old wounds added to new ones. The master is becoming more and more irritable. When the master is in a bad mood, their lives as servants are not easy either!
If he wants him to, then don't go out. The master and mistress in the mansion don't care anymore, so why is the young master still insisting? Haven't you been beaten enough?
"Go away, rest in the mansion today."
This scene has been played out in many mansions. As the saying goes, no matter how tough your temper is, your body cannot be tougher than someone else's fist. Since it is clear that you can't afford to offend them, then just hide away. What else can you do?
They no longer wanted to experiment in person, it was too painful! They had to admit defeat in this situation, they would get beaten up occasionally in the future, but these beatings were unbearable.
Once these young masters quieted down, the whole of Kyoto became much quieter. The usual incidents of fights were greatly reduced. The soldiers of the Five Cities even had time to slowly sip tea in the government office. This is life!
From now on, you don’t have to worry about any disputes. If you see someone is wrong, just send a letter. You don’t have to worry about who you can offend and who you can’t attack. Thank you, His Majesty, thank you, Uncle Ge, and thank you for the kind-hearted person who beat me up.
As Kyoto becomes more harmonious, it is time to harvest sweet potatoes.
Except for Sinongsi, the sweet potato harvest in other places is very good. Everyone was a little bit unbelievable when they saw how big the sweet potatoes were.
"Village Chief, can we eat all this? This is too... too big, too much!"
They had never seen such a large grain before. How many millets could this one weigh? Not to mention, there were several sweet potatoes under one sweet potato, and they couldn't hold them all with two hands.
The old village chief also smiled and said cheerfully, "It's edible. The officials said it's edible. You can cut it into pieces and cook it, or steam it. You can go back and try it yourself."
The village chief was very happy. He heard that it tasted sweet, so he had to go back and try it. It was sweet! He liked it too!
"Dad, it's sweet, sweet!" The little girl, about seven or eight years old, looked at the orange-yellow sweet potatoes just out of the pot, took a small bite, felt the sweetness in her mouth, and ran to her daddy with the bowl in her hand in disbelief.
"Dad, try it! It's sweet!" The little girl's voice was full of surprise. She had only eaten candy once when her cousin got married. She still remembers the sweetness. She didn't expect that the food grown at home was sweet. She was so happy.
The man who was sorting tools in the yard heard his daughter's voice and looked at the sweet potato pieces in the bowl. Although they had been grown for several months, no one knew what they tasted like. It was only because the imperial court said they could be eaten that they dug a few from the ground.
Under a small vine, they dug out sweet potatoes one by one. Although they only dug one, they filled a whole basket. They were happy at first, and then they couldn't believe it. Their ancestors had been farming for hundreds of years, but they had never seen such food!
I dug a basket first and prepared to come back to taste it. But food is just to fill the stomach. As long as it is not bitter, they can eat it. Even when they are really hungry, they will eat it even if it is bitter. But now the child says it is sweet, who will believe it!
Not only the men, but other people in the yard also gathered around after hearing the word 'sweet', looking at the bowl of sweet potato chunks, which actually looked quite nice, with bright colors, even fresher than the silk they had seen in the county!
Seeing everyone staring at the bowl without saying anything, the little girl said anxiously: "It's really sweet, you will know if you try it."
The man took the chopsticks and picked up a piece of sweet potato. It was just out of the pot and still a little hot, but it smelled really good. He put it in his mouth...
The texture was soft and glutinous, and the man felt that he had never eaten anything so fragrant and soft. After tasting it carefully, he found that it was indeed sweet.
"It's so sweet, come and try it!" The man handed the chopsticks to his wife with a look of relaxation on his face.
A small bowl of sweet potatoes was empty in the blink of an eye.
"Dad, it's delicious. I've never eaten anything so delicious."
“Sweet, soft and delicious!”
"Dad, we planted two acres of land!" the young man shouted happily, and went to get a hoe.
"Where are you going?" the man stopped him.
"Dad, I'm going to harvest the sweet potatoes. I'm worried about leaving so many of them in the field!" The man grinned happily. They had two acres of land with so many of these delicious things. He was happy just thinking about it. He had to harvest them as soon as possible, otherwise he would be worried.
