I have a backstage in Datang

After saying this, he sighed again, and said, "But, you really can't steal food anymore."

The woman looked at him timidly, looking a little at a loss.

Gu Tianya suddenly pointed to his chest, tears finally couldn't stop flowing, and asked her: "Sister-in-law, don't you feel pain here? How can a human stomach be used as a tool? You have already started to vomit blood."

The woman lowered her head cowardly, and argued softly, "I can hold on."

"fart!"

Gu Tianya yelled loudly, and even uttered a dirty word.

He seemed very angry, and asked the woman sharply: "You promised me just now that you will never steal food again. If my apprentice has a mother who steals food, how can she be valued by others in the future?"

He was pretending to be angry on purpose, and he was also deliberately scaring this woman.

It's not enough to just scare, you have to use some coaxing, otherwise this woman is afraid that she won't obey, and she will definitely steal food again for the sake of the child.

If that's the case, her stomach can't be healed.

So Gu Tianya followed up and said: "You should have heard that I am a senior official of the court now, and my apprentices follow me. They will also be officials in the future. Even if your child is a girl, I have the ability to let you She is out of the way, but if you dare to steal food again, I will immediately kick your child out of the night school."

The woman really became terrified, and almost subconsciously grabbed Gu Tianya's arm and said, "Sir, Mr. Gu, I promise, I promise, I will never steal food again, please don't drive Niuniu out of the night school."

Gu Tianya took a deep breath, and suddenly he took out a small cardboard box from his arms. The box was very exquisite, and the simplified Chinese characters of later generations were impressively printed on it.

He put the box gently into the woman's hand, with an extremely serious expression on his face, and said, "One grain at a time, once in the morning and evening, remember it for me, don't steal food again, or you will waste this kind of food." Medicine, God will never forgive you."

In order to scare the woman into being obedient, he immediately added: "You may not know that this medicine is extremely expensive, and this box alone is worth thousands of dollars."

……

Qianguan!

This is a number that can scare people to death.

It is also a number that poor people dare not think about in their entire lives.

The woman stood there obviously dumbfounded, and said as if she was stupid: "Thousands, thousand. This thing is worth a thousand. This can buy a hundred of me in Hebei Road..."

Gu Tianya snorted softly, pretended to be angry and said: "You are right, this thing can indeed buy a hundred of you, if not for the sake of my apprentice, I would never be willing to give you the medicine, so you can't Waste, start taking medicine on time from today, I will ask Niuniu to supervise you, and report to me every day how you are taking medicine, as long as you dare to stop the medicine once, I will immediately kick Niuniu out of the night school."

……

... Two more consecutive releases, and there is another chapter behind.

Chapter 84 [Mr. Gu, I wish you a long life]

The woman looked like she was stupid, she still stood there blankly.

After a long time, she suddenly fell to her knees with a thud, she looked up at Gu Tianya, her face was full of tears.Gu Tianya was taken aback, and reached out to pull her up, but the woman stubbornly resisted, burst into tears and said, "Don't pull me, don't pull me, let me kowtow to you, otherwise the medicine I don't feel at ease!"

She put her head on the ground, cried loudly, and said: "Mr. Gu, I know, you are not angry at all, your anger is just faking, this is a thousand-dollar medicine, you are worried that I am reluctant to take it, Mr. Gu, thank you!"

She kowtowed continuously, no matter how Gu Tianya pulled it, she couldn't pull it off, she cried so loudly, holding the box of medicine tightly with both hands.

Li Shimin watched from the side with sore eyes, and suddenly reached out to help Gu Tianya pull her together, the two big men worked hard together, and finally forcibly pulled the woman up.

But the woman didn't know where the strength came from, and she broke free and knelt down again, crying: "Please, let me kneel, you don't want me to kowtow to you, then let me kneel to you Can you do it in a while? Otherwise, I will feel uneasy. Mr. Gu, I beg you."

Gu Tianya sighed dejectedly, and said with difficulty: "Sister-in-law, why are you doing this?"

But I saw the woman kneeling on the ground, wiping tears behind her, and suddenly she looked demented, as if muttering to herself: "A widow like me lives like a puddle of mud, since my man is gone From now on, I thought that no one would pull me any more in this life, so I stopped treating myself as a woman, and forced myself to live like an animal..."

She wiped her tears again, and said stupidly: "Whenever I can't hold on, I tell myself not to be discouraged, because I am just an animal, and animals are the most able to endure hardships and stand hard work, but I am a woman after all." Ah, I also long for someone to hurt me, but since my man is gone, who in this world will care about me?"

After she said this, she suddenly looked up at Gu Tianya. For some reason, she smiled with tears in her eyes and murmured softly: "Mr. Gu, do you know that I thought I might die of exhaustion one day, and I died silently." No interest, lying on the ground like an animal, no one cares, no one pays attention, I don't care about this kind of thing, because I feel that I am alive and dead... But tonight, I was hurt Mr. Gu's care, it made me suddenly feel that I am still a living person, there are still people in this world who are pitiful, and there are still people in this world who care about me, I am not an animal, I am a living person."

She held the box of medicine in both hands, rubbing her fingers lightly on it, she looked up at Gu Tianya, tears welled up in her eyes again, and suddenly burst into tears, begging: "Mr. Thank you for making me less of an animal."

Gu Tianya took a deep breath, finally nodded heavily towards her, and said solemnly: "Okay! I agree."

The woman suddenly became happy, and kowtowed to him in tears.

At this time, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, and slapped Gu Tianya's shoulder fiercely.

But seeing that Li Shimin's face was respectful, but his mouth was gnashing his teeth, he stared at Gu Tianya and said, "Gu Tianya, you are cruel, I, Li Er, have not been very convincing in my life, but you opened my eyes today."

Gu Tianya took another deep breath, and said apologetically, "Second Brother, I'm sorry, I just said I wanted to do something fun, but it turned out to make you uncomfortable again."

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin shook his head slowly, and suddenly let out a long breath, pointed to the woman kneeling on the ground and said: "This is the happiest thing in the world."

The two men looked at each other, suddenly there was something irresistible in their hearts.

……

It was already late at night, and it was inconvenient for the two of them to stay for a long time, so Li Shimin said his goodbyes first, and went straight out of the village to call Duan Zhixuan, then he personally hugged the little girl Niuniu, and returned to send the child back home.

Gu Tianya once again reminded the woman to remember to take the medicine on time. Before he left, he glanced around the thatched cottage again, and finally stopped his eyes on the hay in the corner, as if giving an order: "This winter is really difficult." It's too cold, sleeping on the ground is easy to freeze, especially with your disease, you can't sleep on the ground."

He said without waiting for the woman to speak, and said again: "I will ask someone to make a bed board for your house, and then ask someone to help sew a set of bedding. These expenses will be kept in the account for now, and remember to return them when you make money."

The woman suddenly felt a little worried, and said in a low voice: "My family is too weak, and the employer is unwilling to give money. I only give a catty of grain every day, which is my wages for working. Gu...Mr. Gu, it is very difficult for my family to save money."

"That was in the past, and I won't go back in the future!"

Gu Tianya smiled gently, looked at her and said, "From tomorrow onwards, you will go to work in Gujia Village. As for the errands in the grain depot, don't go there again after you turn it down."

The woman was visibly surprised.

Gu Tianya glanced at her, and said in a gentle voice: "You should have heard about the situation in our Gujia Village. Women can earn at least five pennies a day for working. The post station provides free meals, and hot porridge is open for eating. At night, work is over. At that time, you can still get a bowl of broth. Your Niuniu is my apprentice, so you can enjoy the broth for free, so you can keep the broth after work for yourself, which can just recover your stomach problems as soon as possible. "

The woman was even more pleasantly surprised, but she also felt apprehensive. She couldn't help but timidly asked, "I heard that Gu's Village has already hired enough people, and all those who applied in our village have been persuaded to come back."

Gu Tianya breathed out lightly, his eyes seemed to glance at Li Shimin who was not far from the door, and he seemed to mutter to himself: "It was because there were few things in the past, so we only hired dozens of people, and it will definitely not be the case in the future. Will hire more people."

Following his gaze, the woman also looked outside, and suddenly asked carefully and softly, "The gentleman outside is a big man, right?"

Gu Tianya glanced at her, smiled and said, "Yes!"

He cupped his hands and said goodbye: "It's getting late, you should go to bed early, remember to light a fire, don't freeze my apprentice, she's going to be someone else in the future, if she's frozen, she can't continue Go to my night school..."

The woman glanced at the sleeping child, nodded quickly and agreed: "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, the slave's house promises to light a fire tonight. I can go to Gu's Village to earn money in the future, and I won't be reluctant to waste firewood anymore."

Gu Tianya finally felt relieved, this time he really said goodbye and left.

It was late at night, with howling cold wind, the woman had been standing at the door to send her off, watching Gu Tianya's figure walking far, far away.

It wasn't until she could no longer see Gu Tianya's back that hot tears flowed from her eyes again. She hugged the box of medicine with both hands, and murmured a blessing in her mouth, "Mr. Gu, I wish you a long life." age."

Chapter 85 [How can more than 1000 mu of land be reclaimed? 】

I Have Backstage in Datang Text Volume Chapter 85 [More than 1000 mu of land, how can it be reclaimed? 】It was windy and cold in the middle of the night, and the ground was covered with snow. Since today is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the new moon cannot be seen in the sky. Fortunately, there are stars all over the sky, which can also be used as illumination.

When walking back from Xiaocun, everyone was in a good mood. Although there was no chatting and laughing, they were relieved.

Li Shimin seemed to be having a good time talking, and told the scene he saw to several subordinates. When everyone first heard that the woman vomited blood and vomited food, their faces were full of sadness and sympathy, but when they heard Li Shimin's words Turning around, when it came to Gu Tianya giving the woman the medicine to cure her illness, all of them were pleasantly surprised and relieved a heavy burden in their hearts.

General Duan Zhixuan was the first to speak, and suddenly gave Gu Tianya a thumbs up, and said sincerely, "Brother Gu's move, Duan Zhixuan admires."

Zhang Liang next to him was also full of admiration, and said, "This ending is really comfortable."

Even Qin Qiong, who was pretending to be a fleeing man, couldn't help but say something at this time, but the second brother Qin was taciturn, and even if he praised him, he was only a few words, solemnly said: "That's great."

On the contrary, Gu Tianya sighed, and said with some difficulty: "Everyone is worried about the suffering of one mother. However, looking at the whole of Hebei, how many such poor mothers are there?"

Everyone was startled, with a look of disappointment on their faces.

Li Shimin stretched out his hand and patted Gu Tianya's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Take your time, it will be fine. Although life is difficult in today's world, as long as we refuse to admit defeat, stand up straight and try to change, then the world will be fine." It will always get better, Brother Gu, don’t you think so?”

"Yes!" Gu Tianya nodded suddenly, as if suddenly bursting out with a strong fighting spirit.

He suddenly looked up at the sky, looking at the sky full of stars like water, and laughed loudly: "In the past, Xunzi had a saying, and he had already pointed out the way. If you think about it in the sky, who will control it with animals? Who will praise it from the sky? Use it to control the destiny..."

This is the language of man's determination to conquer nature, and it is about continuous struggle. This is what Xunzi, a great sage at the end of the Warring States period, said. Unfortunately, few people have recognized this for hundreds of years.

Li Shimin was slightly surprised, couldn't help but look at Gu Tianya carefully, suddenly seemed a little regretful, sighed and said: "If you were born in a powerful family, you might already be famous all over the world. Even if you were born in a noble family, you can still stand out It's God's will to trick people, and you were born in the head of Guizhou. This kind of opening... this kind of opening... Damn it, it really makes me Li Er feel uncomfortable. I want to scold him for being blind... "

The term Qianshou was used to refer to civilians in the Warring States and Qin dynasties, but as time went on, it now has a contemptuous meaning. It is generally used to describe muddy legs, but it is a disdainful name.

Li Shimin obviously did not despise Gu Tianya, but why did he use this title?

In fact, the reason is very simple, he feels wronged for his 'brother-in-law'.

On the contrary, Gu Tianya was relieved, and with a chuckle in his mouth, he said to Li Shimin: "Second brother is sorry for me, younger brother is very grateful, but I don't think it's a pity, and I don't want to complain about the bad start..."

He smiled again as he spoke, looked up at the starry sky again, and said: "I am indeed a mud-legged person, and I have indeed been delayed for 18 years. As you said just now, my second brother, my start is worse than others, but, I am in the end." It's still the beginning..."

These words were spoken slowly, without any special momentum, as if they were casual, like chatting with friends.

But after he spoke eloquently, when he said the phrase 'I'm still at the beginning', everyone couldn't help but their eyes lit up, and they only felt that there was a long artistic conception.

I'm finally getting started.

How simple and straightforward a sentence?

However, the self-improvement hidden in the tone made people feel Gu Tianya's tenacity unconsciously.

What if it is 18 years too late?After all, I've already started off.

It is good to be able to do so.

Li Shimin stared straight at Gu Tianya, feeling an indescribable sigh in his heart.

He is obviously a broad-minded person, but because of his background, he can only live in poverty. For 18 years, he lived in a small village. Not only did he live in a very poor life, but he was also often bullied by others.

For example, what is the Miyun Sun family in Li Shimin's eyes?The Sun family in Miyun is nothing, and his servants are even worse than dogs... But those dogs are even worse than dogs, and they often bully his brother-in-law.

Once Li Shimin thought of this, he suddenly felt anger rising in his heart, his eyes obviously flashed murderously, and he suddenly snorted coldly: "Bullying my brother-in-law..."

His voice was very small, as if humming from between his teeth, Gu Tianya couldn't hear it clearly for a moment, couldn't help but turned to look at him curiously, and asked, "Second brother, what are you talking about?"

It's a pity that Li Shimin didn't repeat it to him. Instead, he changed his tone slightly, looked at Gu Tianya and said, "I'm coming to Hebei this time, and I won't stay for too long. After all, family affairs are heavy, and accumulating too much will be disadvantageous." Well, before I came here, my idea was to help Zhaoning check it out. Although I only came here for half a day, I am quite satisfied with you, so there is nothing about you and Zhaoning here. Obstacles. Since you have passed the test with me, it means that you are my brother-in-law from today..."

It wasn't until he finished speaking that Li Shimin repeated what he said just now. Suddenly, murderous intent flashed again in his eyes, and he said with a serious face: "Although I won't stay in Hebei for too long, it doesn't mean I can't do something for you. I told people before I came here that I will give you a little gift for meeting you."

Gu Tianya is so smart, he understood what Li Shimin wanted to do almost instantly, so he almost didn't even want to speak directly, and hurriedly stopped him: "Second brother absolutely must not, this matter cannot be done for now."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, looked at him, and said slightly displeased: "You kid is good at everything, but your heart is too weak. How can you do anything if you look forward and backward when you encounter problems?"

He suddenly let out a cold snort as he spoke, obviously instructing him, and said: "Since you have been born into a good man, you should have the heart to take revenge overnight. The so-called revenge is for people like us. If we are weak, we will bear it It is indeed a good thing, but now that the second brother is backing you up, you will look decadent if you hold back any longer. Remember, when you have the ability to take revenge, you must take revenge. The steward of the Sun family in Miyun once bullied you, then You slaughtered their entire Sun family in Miyun, and if one person offends me, the whole family suffers, this is revenge for one thousand revenge, and it is the only way to raise your eyebrows."

As expected of Li Shimin, this is Li Shimin. In his youth, Li Shimin was full of vigor, like a sharp sword that was hard to draw back. If Li Shimin's murderous intentions were discussed, he might not be smaller than Bai Qi in the Warring States Period.

But Gu Tianya still shook his head hastily, and said again: "Everything that the second brother said is reasonable, but this matter really cannot be done."

He was afraid that Li Shimin would be unhappy again, so he quickly stretched out his hand and pulled Li Shimin's arm, then pulled Li Shimin away quickly without saying a word.

Li Shimin was confused by him for a moment, he didn't understand what he wanted to do, but fortunately, the time didn't delay too long, Gu Tianya quickly dragged him to a place.

This place is just outside the small village, and there are fields as far as the eye can see, with thick snow on the ground, and the white snow is connected into one piece.

Gu Tianya pointed at the snow field in front of him, turned his head to look at Li Shimin and said, "Second brother, take a look, there is a thousand acres of land here."

He didn't wait for Li Shimin to speak, and said again: "The 1000 mu of land was recovered by me from the Sun family in Miyun. Not only this village recovered more than 1000 mu, but the other seven villages also recovered more than 1000 mu. But these lands are not my private property, but the original wealth of the people in the eight villages, and I am discussing with Zhaoning for a while, and I plan to grant the land to the people and return it."

Li Shimin's heart moved slightly, and he vaguely guessed what Gu Tianya wanted to say.

Sure enough, Gu Tianya pointed at the snowfield in front of him again, and said again: "Hebei has been in chaos for a long time, and the land has lost its vitality, so even though it was once managed by the Miyun Sun family, most of these lands are Susukida. Why? Because the people who farm the land Not enough. The barren land can only be regarded as Susukida, and Susukida needs to be recultivated if it wants to produce grain..."

He spoke very fast, for fear of being interrupted by others, he followed up and said: "The more than 1000 acres in front of me will be distributed to Niu Niu and the others' entire village. Second brother, you have also visited the village just now. There are only ten acres in Niu Niu's village. There are no males, only old, weak, women and children, more than 1000 acres of land, ten or so households, each family can get at least [-] acres of land, which will have to be cultivated next spring. This is a very difficult and laborious job. Even a strong man has to shed a layer of skin, but we already know that Niu Niu’s village is full of women and children..."

When Gu Tianya said this, he finally stopped for a while, turned to look at Li Shimin and said, "Second brother, you should have realized something by now, I am worried about those old and weak women and children, I want to ask you, what do you think? How can they reclaim so much land?"

Li Shimin was obviously lost in thought, and frowned faintly.

Gu Tianya asked him a question, and he seemed to be asking himself, muttering: "Yes, how do women and children reclaim so much land?"

He knew that as long as he wanted to understand the answer to this question, he would be able to know why Gu Tianya did not touch the Sun family for the time being.

Chapter 86 [I have to blow Zhaoning's 'pillow wind']

Li Shimin is not good at farming.But he is the prince of the Tang Dynasty after all, how can he not pay attention to the livelihood of the people under his command?

So although he is not good at it, he vaguely knows how to do it

However, he didn't answer Gu Tianya. Instead, he looked at Gu Tianya with sincerity, and said, as if he was a little ashamed: "Your second brother, I come from a wealthy family, and I have never done farming in my life. I've done it, I'm definitely not good at it, I, Li Er, will never hide my flaws, instead I will humbly ask others for advice on what I don't understand..."
