Jia Qiang's Ordinary Life

-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

Later, Xue Pan was put in a sack and beaten into a pig's head. Aunt Xue was so distressed that she cursed the bastard who dared to hurt her son!Don't think it's better not to give birth to a bad child by yourself, but in my heart I love my only son very much. Even Xue Baochai may love her, but more or less she will marry her off. It's good to help my mother's family.

Xue Pan's absurdity has never been a secret in the eyes of the servants of Jia's family and some members of the clan, but some of the masters who were born didn't know anything, and thought that he went out all day to take care of his own business, so he couldn't help but feel sorry for " Pearls are like earth and gold is like iron." The Xue family had some thoughts.

As the days passed, Jia Qiang was able to behave again because of his outstanding work. In autumn, his official rank was promoted by half a level, and he would have some chances to meet the saints in the future. Several old seniors of the Imperial Academy watched with relief. He looked kindly like a grandson looking at his own future, as if he had already planned to train Jia Qiang as a future bachelor.

Autumn is the time when all kinds of animals are fattened up to survive the harsh winter. Therefore, autumn hunting is also a favorite activity of the children of all families, and Jia Qiang is no exception.These days, there are too few recreational activities. In future generations, if you have time, you can travel as much as you can. If you don’t want to go out, there is also a TV and computer at home, so you won’t feel like you have nothing to do.However, in this era, there are too few recreational activities, and autumn hunting is a rare activity that can be indulged.The emperor was in a good mood, and resumed the tradition of hunting, and went to the royal hunting garden to hunt. Of course, he was accompanied by clan ministers. Jia Qiang's level was not qualified to participate in the royal hunting, so he could only stay in the capital. I still keep company with the official documents of the Imperial Academy and piles of old papers every day.When it was time for Xiumu, Li Cheng rushed over excitedly and suggested going out of the city to hunt.Li Chengci's luck was not very good. Before the Holy Majesty's Luan drove, he fell ill!So, of course, he couldn't go out of Beijing with him. Fortunately, he was in good health, and after a short time, he was alive and kicking again, full of energy!

Jia Qiang was a little hesitant. Although he had learned archery, after all, archery was one of the six arts of a gentleman, but his grades were only mediocre.His arm strength is not very good, and his accuracy is not so good. If he really wants to hunt, he will probably make a fool of himself!However, in the end, he couldn't resist the fun of hunting described by Li Cheng, and thought that if he could catch two rabbits and foxes, he would just make a waistcoat out of fur and give it to Yuan Zixuan.So he still ordered his servants to prepare Zhang Shi's lacquer bow, plus two pots of arrowheads, followed Li Cheng, brought hounds, followed by a long line of servants, Li Cheng also took two falcons, and ran out of the city.

Li Cheng must have spent a lot of effort on archery. Not long after leaving the city, he shot down two wild geese that were unfortunately flying south with the main force, and the arrows were fatal.Jia Qiang couldn't do it, she finally saw a yellow rabbit, and before he could take aim, the rabbit scurried away, didn't know which hole it got into, and never came out again.

Li Cheng was quite kind, and he didn't taunt him like those bad friends in Jia Qiang's previous life. Jia Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, held the bow and arrow, and continued to look for prey.

Fortunately, among the servants brought by Jia Qiang, there were a few good ones. It didn't take long before they shot down some deer and rabbits. With their help, Jia Qiang also managed to kill a hare with a few arrows. , but the hare was almost turned into a hedgehog, and the fur was obviously damaged, so it could only be cut into small pieces, and could not be used as a whole to make clothes.

Pedestrians have been tossing for most of the time, and at noon they just eat some dry food and water.Jia Qiang finally harvested a few hares, a roe deer and a pheasant, and found four small hares in a hare's nest, and put them in cages and planned to take them back to raise them.And Li Cheng also hit two fiery red foxes, which made Jia Qiang jealous.However, the pedestrians were tired after staying on the horse for such a long time, so they planned to find someone nearby to rest for a while, and let them gather some prey for a good meal before returning to the city.

Pedestrians ran along the main road for a while and saw a small village. They went to find the people at the entrance of the village, gave them a few taels of silver, and asked them to help them pick up some prey, cook some dishes, and fetch a few catties of wine.Since there was money, the head of the family happily agreed, and immediately asked his wife to come out and help clean up.A five or six-year-old child ran out of the house, looked at the crowd curiously and with some fear, and looked eagerly at the majestic horses, as if wanting to step forward and pet them.

"Ban'er, come back, don't bump into the distinguished guest!" An old woman came out of the house and shouted.

The child held his finger in his mouth, hesitating for a while, but he was still reluctant to walk over to the old woman, holding the old woman by the corner of her clothes, standing aside, looking timidly at the people sitting in the yard.

Jia Qiang looked at the child, smiled softly, took out a few harps from the purse, walked over and stuffed them into the child's hand, and said with a smile: "Take it, and study hard later, there will be a big horse to ride in the future!"

"Ban'er, thank you sir!" The old woman was obviously quite knowledgeable, and she was not afraid, and spoke very fluently.

Ban'er was timid and didn't dare to speak, the old woman quickly apologized and said: "The child is ignorant, so don't worry about it! Please also leave a name for us, so that we can always talk about it!"

Jia Qiang laughed and said, "My surname is Jia!"

The old woman's eyes flashed with joy, she smiled like a chrysanthemum, and said: "It turns out that you are the young master of Jia's mansion, no wonder he is so pitiful to the poor and the weak, it really is everyone's demeanor! Get up, the two men in the mansion This aunt is still a relative of our family!"

"? So they are still relatives!" Jia Qiang thought about it, and the person was probably that Grandma Liu, and she still asked, "Then, old lady, what is your surname?"

"Farmer, what a noble surname!" Sure enough, the old woman waved her hand and said, "My surname is Liu, and everyone is called Grandma Liu! My son is from the son-in-law's family. His surname is Wang, and his nickname is Gouer. His ancestors were also officials. It’s also considered home! In the past two years, the family was so poor that they couldn’t open the pot, so they had to take the board and go to Rongguo Mansion to find my aunt, Sister Feng. The more the days pass, the better! The people in the country don’t have any good things, they only have vegetables and fruits grown in their own fields, and it’s good to send them over, so that the family can taste something new!”

Grandma Liu became even more enthusiastic while rambling on.He ordered his son-in-law to pack up his things, went to the field to pick melons and vegetables, took a few jars of rice wine from his wine cellar, and quickly put out several dishes, which were full of portions, satisfying the hungry group and praising them again and again.

Grandma Liu was indeed kind, and both Jia Qiang and Li Cheng were deeply moved. Before leaving, Jia Qiang simply kept all the scattered gold and silver in her purse, which made Grandma Liu thank you again and again.
