Chapter 79 Many People Scold You

"Master, the whole county has heard about it!"

The little Taoist boy said excitedly, "There is a young teacher in the village at the foot of the mountain who teaches Pinyin. This book has a Pinyin version, and everyone can read it!"

"The people are now praising you!"

Sun Simiao: “…”

He opened the booklet, and the first few chapters introduced the names of various parts of the body. The details were so great that he felt that the author could not have written it without extorting dozens of people.

Look what's written on it!

Jejunum, ileum, descending colon, frontal bone, sphenoid bone, maxilla...

Is this directly splitting the person in half front and back?

Sun Simiao began to tremble all over.

"Master, Master! What's wrong with you?"

He took a deep breath, his expression complicated: "Master...it's okay."

Then, his eyes lit up and he continued to flip through the book.

"Wow, they actually divided the heart so clearly. It turns out they call blood vessels blood vessels. This drawing is too detailed..."

After flipping through a few pages, Sun Simiao closed the book, looked up and asked the boy: "Where did you get this book from?"

"There's one in the village down the mountain. I thought it was good, so I went to the government office and bought one. It cost ten cents, which is very expensive."

The little Taoist boy often went down the mountain to chop firewood and sell it. As he was young and light, he could only carry a little firewood at a time. He had to make two or three trips back and forth to earn ten cents.

He thought it was expensive, but Sun Simiao thought it was too cheap.

Sun Simiao rubbed the book cover and paper back and forth with his palms, both of which were extremely delicate.

"There was a woman in the village who had just given birth. The baby's face turned blue and purple due to the confinement. It looked like the baby was about to die. The village head followed the instructions in the booklet to try to save the baby, and he actually saved the baby!"

The little boy was excited and proud, because this was written by his master!

"Master, you are so amazing!"

Sun Simiao: “…”

"Tianyang, pack up your things, we will go down the mountain in a few days."

There are some things in this booklet that he cannot understand. Common people can just follow the instructions and it doesn't matter if they don't understand, but as the 'compiler', he must find out the reasons!

Besides, people have given him a good reputation for nothing, he...can't just take it for nothing.

"Okay, Master!" Tian Yang shouted happily.

……

At night, on the way back to the palace.

After discussing how to deal with the prisoners, Li Shimin felt relieved.

This time he came to Nuzhuang mainly to take some pencils and erasers back.

The children in the palace now all write with pencils, which are easier to control than brushes. Pencils are more suitable for young children with small hands.

Li Shimin would sometimes use a pencil, but not when writing formally.

There was also a large wooden box in the carriage, which was filled with heavy books. My sister-in-law said it was called Economics.

He flipped through it twice and felt a headache.

When I get back, I will give it to the officials of the Ministry of Revenue for study.

"My sister said that there will be a severe drought in Jiannan and Guandong this autumn... We need to get people to dig wells. We can't let the people get killed over water."

"Wang De, what should I do if I order people to dig a well and the people become upset?"

After all, there is no severe drought yet, and asking everyone to dig wells would be a waste of manpower and resources.

Even though it is the slack season for farming now, it is not possible.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid there is no better way..." Wang De said cautiously.

Master Li just said that if people were asked to dig a well in the hot summer, they must ensure everyone's safety and must not get heat stroke from exhaustion.

The women's village will provide free rock sugar soup to replenish everyone's energy.

I haven't said anything else.

"Ask those who have not yet been conscripted this year. Now that the treasury is a little more abundant, give each person 20 coins a day, two meals a day, and mung bean soup and other sweet drinks to cool down the body!"

This condition is already pretty good. In the past, when people were doing labor service, they didn’t even get food, let alone money!

"Have a doctor come to take charge. We must not let anyone get sick from working themselves to death." Li Shimin said. This summer is indeed hotter than last year.

When they returned to the palace, Sizi and Xincheng had already fallen asleep, leaving Zhinu chatting with Empress Changsun.

"Erlang, at a time like this, you should not go out all the time."

Empress Changsun complained that she had put in a lot of effort to create the illusion that Li Shimin was still in mourning in the palace.

"Thank you for your hard work. I won't go out anymore and will stay in the palace with you and the children." Li Shimin took Empress Changsun's hand and asked her to sit down and rest.

"Guanyin, how are you feeling these days?"

He was worried that Li Yuan's death would worsen Empress Changsun's condition. After all, she was suffering because of him.

"I felt a little chest tightness the past two days. Today, I took the medicine my stepsister sent me and I feel much better."

When talking about Li Yin, Empress Changsun also laughed.

Her stepsister always worries about her and Jilang's health more than they do themselves.

"Mother." Li Zhi opened his big eyes, innocent and harmless.

"Who is my stepsister?"

When Li Shimin heard this, he was about to frown, but was pulled back by Empress Changsun.

"Erlang, please don't always scare the little slave." After saying that, Empress Changsun picked up the seven-year-old child.

"My stepmother is the most amazing young lady that I have ever seen. Zhinu's bicycle and toys like the Rubik's Cube and Luban Lock were all created by my stepmother."

As she spoke, Empress Changsun frowned and said, "Zhi Nu has to call my adopted sister aunt next time, understand?"

Li Zhi was confused for a moment: "Does Zhinu have two aunts?"

“Puchi——” Empress Changsun was amused and said, “Of course not. A step-sister is different. A step-sister is the sister your father recognized.”

"Oh~" Li Zhi suddenly realized: "My step-sister is a fake aunt!"

'Snapped! '

Li Shimin couldn't stand it anymore, and slapped Li Zhi on the head, then stared at him: "What's fake or real! My sister-in-law is the most powerful and important aunt."

"Wow--" Li Zhi burst into tears instantly, broke free from Empress Changsun's arms, and ran out of the door.

Running to the door, he turned around and shouted angrily at Li Shimin.

"My stepsister is the ugliest and worst aunt!"

Li Shimin: "..."

Empress Chang Sun: “…”

Then, the two of them burst into laughter.

Female village.

Li Yin was lying on the bed and sneezed, suspecting someone was scolding her.

"System, someone is scolding me?"

【There are many people scolding you. 】

Li Yin: “…”

"How many points do I have now?"
