The Nameless of the Common Clans
Chapter 404: Too Much is as Bad as Too Little
The long river gurgled from west to east. Above the Yellow River, there were sparkling waves. In the fields and ridges on both sides of the river, you can see the figures of farming people everywhere. It is the spring plowing season, and it is also the busiest time in the world. The riverside has already begun. There are insects and birds chirping, creating a lively atmosphere, just like the people's livelihood in Guanzhong.
As dusk approached, Diao Chan trotted to the edge of the field and shouted to Chen Mo and Xiao Chen Jin who were still working in the fields: "Husband, my mother has called me for dinner~"
Wearing coarse linen clothes, it is difficult to conceal her peerless appearance.
"Come back after you're done!" Chen Mo, while fiddling with the plow, shouted to Chen Jin, whose mind was no longer here.
"Here!" The smile that appeared on the seven-year-old Chen Jin's face gradually disappeared after hearing this, and he continued to follow Chen Mo to push the plow and sow seeds.
After a full moment, the father and son pushed the plow back and put it away, then joined Diao Chan and walked home.
"Are you tired?" Chen Mo wiped the sweat from Diao Chan's temples.
"Not tired." Chen Jin replied subconsciously. When he looked up, he saw that his father was not looking at him at all. Under the setting sun, the two figures overlapped and enveloped Chen Jin's figure. He could only follow with a grimace. .
"My husband and Jin'er are both not tired, how can I dare to say that I am tired?" Diao Chan shook her head.
"There was nothing waiting for you, so I had to come with you." Chen Mo shook his head and said.
"Mom also misses life in the fields, so she insists on coming. Besides, my husband and my wife are suffering here, how can we stay at home and enjoy our happiness?" Diao Chan said softly.
"It's not about suffering, teach Jin'er something." Chen Mo shook his head. Farmers can know the heavens and the sufferings of the world. As Chen Mo's eldest son, Chen Jin will inherit Chen Mo's legacy in the future. Chen Mo wants him to It is difficult to know the reason why you are in power now, why you need to develop agriculture, why you need to run schools, why you need to develop industry and business, and you have experienced the suffering of the people before you can pity the people. These things are difficult to teach in books.
The three of them soon returned home. It was larger than the farmhouse they originally set up in Chang'an. After all, there were many people. Their mothers, wives and concubines were all here. From a long distance away, they could smell the aroma of rice. Chen Mo and Chen Jin's stomachs were rumbling. The sound was so loud that Diao Chan laughed.
At home, Cai Yan came out with Yun Si and Juan'er. Two naked children were having a great time chasing dogs and chickens in the courtyard.
"You're back~" Mother Chen waved to Chen Jin: "Come and have a meal."
Chen Jin quickly ran to his grandmother's side.
Although the four wives and concubines were made of coarse cloth and jade hairpins, their appearance was peerless. Chen Mo shook his head and sighed. He hugged Sayazi's running daughter into his arms. He shook his head and said, "How can ordinary people have such a group of wives and concubines?" Is it stunning?”
Before, I only brought Cai Yan out with me and it didn't feel like anything. Now that I brought my concubines out to experience farm life, the feeling was naturally different. What ordinary farmer could have a wife and three concubines, each one more beautiful than the other?
"I have lived in the city for a long time, and I also want to live in the countryside." Mother Chen held Chen Jin's hand, which felt a little rough. She hugged her grandson distressedly and glared at her son with some annoyance.
"You, I just feel sorry for this kid." Chen Mo sat down and looked at his mother helplessly and said: "Although I don't advocate hardship, there are some things that you must experience to know. Farming can know the changes in seasons and the changing of the four seasons. There are many things that are difficult to experience when staying in a mansion in Luoyang City, and you can also seize opportunities in future battles. "
"So my mother didn't stop her, she just wanted to take care of her grandson. What's wrong?" Mother Chen said dissatisfied.
"When you come, the child cannot let you suffer. Also, when you come, how can the three of them dare to stay in the house?" Chen Mo hugged his daughter and said, "Zheng'er and Yun'er are still young!"
"Some things, too much is too much!" Mother Chen took her eldest grandson's hand, looked at her son and said, "I know that Bo Dao wanted them to know the suffering in this world, but it may not be so thorough. Chen Yuanlong is also an outstanding person, and he didn't I experienced these hardships when I was young.”
"But I know that brother knows the changes in solar terms and farming." Chen Mo grabbed a piece of bread and rolled it in the butcher's shop while eating and said: "Besides, mother only sees that brother Yuanlong is an outstanding person, has she ever seen Do you think more rich people are doing nothing? People's talents are determined by fate. Some people can master it as soon as they learn it, but some people need to study hard to master it. I'm not sure whether Jin'er and others have it. However, regardless of status in this world, those with outstanding talents are only a minority after all. If you want to become talented, in addition to reading, you also need to experience it yourself in order to turn this knowledge into your own. Have your own opinions, not A mediocre person who only knows how to read and not distinguish between grain and grain.”
"I can't help you." Mother Chen looked helplessly at her grandson in her arms, then looked at Chen Mo and said, "Mom will stay here for three more days, and she will leave in three days."
"Mom, I'm not chasing you away." Chen Mo looked helplessly at his mother's appearance and said with a wry smile.
"Mom, the food is cold. Eat it quickly." Cai Yan quickly stopped the topic, filled a bowl of soup for his mother, and said with a smile.
"Let's all sit down and eat." Chen Mo waved to everyone and sighed: "Mom, I don't mean any disrespect. It's rare for the world to have a truce this year. I have more time to spend with my mother, wife and children. I may be a little anxious, except for the I have to go back to Luoyang in a few days and will stay here most of the time. The child also wants to be filial to his mother. If the mother doesn't mind the hardship, she might as well stay here. "
Cao Cao is seizing the time to recuperate. Yuan Shao took a year's rest last year. Chen Mo estimates that Yuan Shao will completely destroy Gongsun Zan this year. Chen Mo will not take the initiative to start a war to establish a school, consolidate power, etc. The three major princes will not fight. I'm afraid other princes also He didn't have the guts to take the initiative to provoke. As for Yuan Shao, who was still alive, Sun Ce could make him tired to deal with it. Even if he wanted to make trouble, he couldn't make trouble. This year will generally be peaceful for another year, but it's hard to say next year. That's why Chen Mo has Opportunity to come out with my wife and children.
Of course, it is impossible to ignore everything. Every three or five days, Chen Mo will return to Luoyang to preside over government affairs and handle some matters. Or if something happens, Luoyang will also send people over.
Chen's mother sighed, looked at Chen Mo and said: "I know my son is doing it for their own good, but Mo'er still remembers running for a living when he was a child? You are so talented that you can find time to study during the busy farming period, but just like you As I said, Jin'er and the others may not have my talent. Having lived at the bottom, almost all the energy was spent on running for life. Mo'er has talent, but if he hadn't met Mr. Ziyuan, he might not be as knowledgeable as he is today. Ruo Jin'er and the others, like Mo'er, work hard every day , How much time do you have left to learn martial arts?”
Chen Mo was stunned when he was asked. He had the help of the system gods. Even when there was no virtual training camp, he read and practiced martial arts. As long as he kept studying, he could continue to gain more knowledge, and no matter how tired he was, he would always be able to get better the next day. Being energetic can also be regarded as a kind of talent, but his son does not have this. After working hard every day, he will be in low spirits and tired the next day.
"What mother said is true." Chen Mo looked at his son, nodded silently and said: "In that case, I will mention it to the higher level. If you are a wealthy family in the countryside, you will have two tenant farmers to help with the farming, but you still need to Go to the fields to work and read every day.”
Farming and reading at the same time, farming and reading are also a kind of cultural inheritance. Nowadays, many famous families also inherit their families in this way. Chen Mo is ready to adjust it, but it is impossible to give up farming completely. The Han Dynasty is a big farming country. This is the most important thing. Fundamental skills should not be lost. Chen Mo has always scorned Confucius' saying that seeking the Way should not seek food.
Chen Mo is not the only one who dares to question what his predecessors said. At least Chen Mo knows many Confucian scholars, such as Cai Yong, Lu Zhi, and Xun Shuang. Other great Confucians did not fully accept Confucianism.
"Have a meal!" Mother Chen glanced at Chen Mo and picked up a pair of chopsticks.
"Here~" Among everyone, Chen Jin shouted the loudest.
Chen Mo glared at him, and the little guy quickly became serious.
Next, the atmosphere became much more relaxed. Chen Mo would occasionally tell some interesting stories and make up some knowledge into stories for his children.
After dinner, the family chatted in the courtyard and watched the children play. It was rare for them to feel relaxed and at ease.
"Madam, do you think I'm too harsh on Jin'er?" In the dead of night, Chen Mo hugged his wife's delicate body and asked.
"My husband also hopes that Jin'er will become a talented person." Cai Yan lay in Chen Mo's arms and laughed softly.
"Which parent doesn't look forward to it?" Chen Mo said with a smile: "It's just that in this world, going too far is never enough. I regard Jin'er as my childhood."
He learns things quickly and has endless energy... Now that I think back carefully about my childhood friends, there is really no one like Chen Mo.
