Farming and teaching across different worlds

"Xiu Ran, did you encounter any difficulties?"

Hearing his question, Ji Xiuran struggled for a moment, then looked at the small yellow flowers in full bloom on a nearby cucumber seedling, and asked in a daze, "Father, if the son stops being an official, Are you...would you be disappointed?"

Ji's father turned his head to look at him in surprise, saw that the expression on his face was not right, his expression became serious, and after careful consideration, he turned his head to look at his vegetable field, picked up the cigarette stick and took a puff, leisurely He exhaled a puff of green smoke and said, "When you were just born, everyone said that you couldn't support yourself. Your mother and I didn't believe it. We tried various methods and sought doctors from all over the world, but there was no result. Very hopeless."

As he spoke, he took another puff of cigarette, and continued: "At that time, we made a wish in our hearts, as long as you can grow up safely and healthily, let us do anything, and finally found a way to know that you can grow up safely. When we grow up, your mother and I made a vow at that time, as long as you can be healthy and safe in this life, we will ask for nothing else."

Speaking of this, I couldn't help turning my eyes to look at Ji Xiuran, and then said helplessly: "Who knows that you are fighting for your own strength, reading better than others, and you are also very strong. You are determined to be outstanding and honor your ancestors, so you really passed the exam. Xiucai, at that time, your mother and I felt that the ancestral grave was smoking, and we didn't think about anything else. Who knew that you went to high school all the way, and even entered the imperial court and became an official."

Speaking of this, Father Ji paused, sighed, and then said: "Although you have become an official and our family has lived a prosperous life, this has never been what we wanted. In fact, your mother and I have always been in love with you." I don’t ask for anything else, just asking for a safe and smooth life for you is enough.”

After finishing speaking, he raised his head and looked at Ji Xiuran seriously, and said, "So Xiuran, if you encounter any difficulties and are not happy doing it, then let's not do it, and if it's a big deal, go home and farm."

Ji Xiuran began to listen to Father Ji's words with a calm expression, but after he said these words, he couldn't help but get red-rimmed eyes, looked at Father Ji, and shouted with a sob in his voice, "Father!"

Seeing him like this, Ji's father looked at him amusedly, and joked, "How old is he, still crying."

Ji Xiuran smiled embarrassingly when Father Ji said it, and then he felt really relaxed after this experience, just as Father Ji said, there is nothing hard to overcome, at worst, he will go home to farm and teach.

At this time, Mother Ji, who was picking vegetables at the other end, just finished picking vegetables, and came over. Ji Xiuran took the initiative to meet her, and wanted to take the basket in her hand, but she turned away and said disapprovingly: "A little thing , Mother can move, I don’t need you.”

After finishing speaking, he looked at the father and son, and asked suspiciously: "What did you father and son say just now? Did you bully my son? My son's eyes are red when I see it."

Ji's father looked at Ji's mother who scolded him, immediately turned black at the indiscriminate old woman, snorted coldly, didn't want to pay attention to this person, turned around angrily, and left with his hands behind his back.

Seeing Father Ji behaving like this, Mother Ji immediately stepped forward angrily and dragged him to argue, but was stopped by Ji Xiuran who saw something was wrong: "Mother, don't be angry, Father didn't say anything, son's eyes My son just kneaded it with his hands."

Mother Ji heard this, looked at him suspiciously, and asked half-believingly: "Your son, don't lie to your mother, Yaoer is not afraid, who dares to bully you, tell mother, mother must teach him a good lesson."

Hearing Mother Ji's words, Ji Xiuran felt her sincere care and love. While being moved, he was also a little helpless, so he smiled calmly and said calmly: "My son remembers, mother, don't worry, everything my son said true."

Only then did Mother Ji feel relieved, and walked outside, showing Ji Xiuran the vegetables she picked today with great interest.

After Ji's mother's interruption, Ji Xiuran's emotion just disappeared, leaving only a touch of helplessness in his heart.

But after Ji's father enlightened him, he knew what he was going to do.

When I went back, I sorted out the relevant information in the book of memory and handed it to Taoist Qingyue.

Ever since Qingyue saw Ji Xiuran's strange expression and came out of the study, he felt uneasy and worried, and thought that something was wrong, but now that he got the information given by Ji Xiuran, his heart immediately settled down.

Excitedly flipping through these materials, seeing the contents inside, he immediately felt like a treasure, without Ji Xiuran's confession, he automatically went back to the laboratory in his yard and started researching.

Ji Xiuran saw that he was so active, so he didn't say anything more, and let him study while he was busy with other things.

At the same time, Shi Jingchen on the island has also prepared a general offensive tactic.

When the moon was dark and the wind was high, all the 20 troops were dispatched and quietly drove towards the opponent's station.

In the past few days, the spies came back, and the new enemy coach wanted to attack them in the next few days, preparing to fight a good battle and consolidate their position in the army.

However, some people objected, which caused their plan to fail. The two sides argued about whether to launch an attack now, and the stalemate became stalemate for a while, and the contradiction deepened.

Shi Jingchen felt that this was a good opportunity, so he called his subordinates to discuss the strategy of the general attack.

10 people attacked from the front; 5 people went around to the rear to block their retreat and cut off their connection with their own country; the remaining 5 people raided the formation.

After the arrangements were made, Shi Jingchen led 10 people to the opposite side.

There was no fire on their warships, and they drove quietly to the opposite island in the pitch black.

When they were hundreds of miles away, they ordered to stop. There were many hidden reefs in this sea area. They didn't know the passage, so they didn't dare to approach at will. Moreover, their ships were too big to dock here.

But even so, Shi Jingchen has a way to deal with it.

He let the 100 people selected before put on the improvised diving suits sent before, sneaked over, and after landing, wiped out the sentries and patrolling soldiers on the sentry post.

This simple diving suit can only dive [-] centimeters below the seawater because there is no matching oxygen cylinder.

Even so, on this moonless night, diving into the sea was silent, and even the best-sighted sentinels would find it difficult to spot them.

These one hundred people went ashore quietly, and according to the previous instructions, after killing all the sentries and patrol soldiers, they sent signals to the sea.

Shi Jingchen stood at the bow of the boat, saw the signal from the other side, and ordered the boat to be lowered, and everyone took the boat through the hidden reefs and landed on the shore.

When their large force attacked the enemy camp, sneaked into the camp quietly, and captured some of the enemies who were sleeping, some of them woke up and realized what happened, and immediately began to shout loudly.

At this time, most of the enemies woke up from their sleep. Many of them were captured before they could react, but some of them fled in a hurry.

Shi Jingchen ordered some people to chase the escaped people, while others stayed behind to list the prisoners. Those who did not resist were imprisoned, and those who resisted were killed without mercy.

Chapter 185

Those who escaped were scattered all over the island. Some of the enemies wanted to escape back to the country through the passage behind, but they were captured by the ambush army who had just left the island.

Some of them fled to other places on the island, hid themselves, waited for the opportunity, and escaped.

The attack was well prepared, and taking advantage of its unpreparedness, the progress was rapid. When the sky was bright, the war was coming to an end.

After all the enemy soldiers in the camp had been ambushed, the war would be over, and Shi Jingchen ordered to clear the battlefield.

Excluding those who resisted so stubbornly and were finally killed, they captured a total of [-] enemy troops this time.

In addition, they also seized a large number of supplies, weapons and ships.

Moreover, in this operation, their side suffered very few casualties, which can be described as a complete victory.

Then they locked up these captives and began to organize the camp. After they settled down, they sent people to clean up the island.

In addition to clearing out those enemy soldiers who fled and hid, they also need to clean up the coastline around the island so that they can control the entire island.

Only then did they realize that the island was several times larger than their previous island, and these people should have been stationed on the island for some time.

In the center of the island, a grand courtyard was even built, and tens of acres of fertile fields were reclaimed around the courtyard. Now is the season when the plants in the fields are flourishing. Walking on the edge of the fields, you can still smell the crops clearly. Unique aroma.

Looking at the dozens of acres of fields and the grain and vegetables in the fields, Shi Jingchen was very happy.

During this period of time, in addition to eating sea fish and shrimp, they occasionally ate some wild fruits and vegetables. They saved all serious grains and vegetables and were reluctant to eat them.

The fresh vegetables were only the one hundred hydroponic vegetables sent by Ji Xiuran to the boat, and the others were only some dried vegetables.

Even so, the number is limited, and ordinary soldiers can't afford it at all.

Now that we have these fields and these grains and vegetables, although it is impossible for all soldiers to have a full meal every day, it is still possible to eat once in a while.

In the past six months, they left their homes and fought against the enemy on this strange island, and they endured more than they imagined.

The longing for their family members, the dissatisfaction with the environment, and the attachment to their homeland all weigh on their hearts all the time, making them suffer endlessly in their spare time.

Shi Jingchen looked at the vast sea, and sighed slightly, counting that he had been away from home for half a year, he didn't know if his home would be safe or not.

……

In the capital, during this period of time, new progress has been made in the investigation of the case of the Liangzhou Commercial and Taxation Department.

The truth of the matter has been basically ascertained.

Ji Xiuran knew the results of the investigation, and Cong Youxi
