Lao Liu's words seemed to be referring to something, and Liu Yiyi asked, "What does Dad mean?" Is Nijo being bullied outside? ”

"No, no, Dad is just afraid that Nijo will learn your fists and feet and will deceive others, which will not be good." Lao Liu hurriedly waved his hand to cover up, and said: "Erjo is a person who reads, and he will be an official in the future, and he will do the way of pen and ink, how can he be like those who go to the rivers and lakes, he will use knives and guns at every turn, and his fists and feet will be combined, and the impact will not be good." ”

"Well, Daddy said yes." Liu Yiyi saw that Lao Liu didn't want to say it, and he didn't force it, but glanced at Liu Erjo and said: "But Erjo is pure and kind by nature, and he will never do anything to do anything and do that kind of military deception." So there is no harm in letting him learn some martial arts, on the contrary, if he has a skill, when he is bullied, he also has a reliance that can fight back, right? ”

As he spoke, Liu Yiyi patted Liu Ertiao's shoulder again and said, "Ertiao, in the future, whether you are studying outside or serving as an official on one side, if someone bullies us, you just have to fight back." When you are a man, you sit as a big husband, and when you are angry, you can't just think about how to endure it, but you also have to think about how to fight him back. As long as there is reason and evidence, even the prince and the prince will bite off a piece of meat for him! ”

It's a bit radical to say this, but it's very suitable for Liu Erjo, a child who grew up under the influence of Liu Laoshi's cowardly character.

To be a man, you must know how to protect yourself, you must know how to fight back, and swallow your anger, which will only increase the spurning of others for you. and even more brutal bullying.

"Hmmm! I see, big brother, thank you, big brother! Liu Nijo didn't feel that his fists were clenched, and his expression was very excited. He had heard people say this kind of words before, and he returned the fist with a fist, remembering the heroic deeds of the eldest brother who punched Wang Shuai and designed to kill Wang Kui, Liu Erjo's eyes became more and more eager when he looked at Liu Yiyi.

Be a man. Be like a big brother!

"Uh" Lao Liu saw Liu Erjo's excited appearance, raised his hand, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything. Perhaps, the big boy is right to do this, alas!

"Okay," Ryuichi patted Ryu Nijo on the shoulder and said, "Having said that, your main task now is to study." Test for fame. The matter of practicing martial arts is set in the early morning every day, and the eldest brother will call you when the time comes. Well, for now, let's go to the study to warm up the book. ”

"Yes, big brother, Dad." Liu Erjo nodded at Lao Liu and Liu Yiyi, and then turned around and went to the study.

"One. Are you sure. Wouldn't it be harmful for you to do this to Nijo? After Liu Erjo entered the house, Lao Liu opened his mouth to ask Liu Yiyi, the words that Liu Yiyi said just now made him still a little frightened until now, tooth for tooth, eye for eye, is this really good?

"Daddy. You can rest assured. Liu Yiyi smiled and comforted Lao Liu: "Nijo will definitely be an official in the future." Being an official is no better than being a common man in the countryside. If you endure everything, you can let it pass, in the officialdom. The more timid and cowardly a person is, the more easily he is bullied, and the more he will not make a difference. Therefore, in order for the two future official roads to be smoother, he must have these things. ”

Lao Liu nodded as if he didn't understand, although he knew that the eldest son would never harm the second boy, but he still couldn't help but worry in his heart, for fear that the second boy would provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked.

Alas, ancestors bless. Lao Liu sighed lightly, and got up to take care of his precious ploughing cattle.

Liu Yiyi washed his face, went into the house to change his clothes, and also came to Lao Liu's side to help.

"Daddy," Liu Yiyi picked up a handful of hay and put it under the guillotine, and the old Liu lifted the knife to open it.

"Now that there are only twenty-one ploughing cattle at home, it seems a little crowded, if the fifty ploughing cattle in the county are given again, where should we put them?"

Liu Yiyi glanced at Lao Liu, repeated the old words again, and said to Lao Liu: "Why don't we build a new mansion?" Well, on the 300 hectares of land newly given by the court, a vacant land was selected and a big manor was built. It can not only protect our fields, but also save some money to buy homesteads. Dad, what do you think? ”

"Well, you are in charge of this, our house is indeed smaller now, and it is time to change it." Lao Liu gathered the broken grass into the wooden basin, stood up, and said to Liu Yi casually.

"Huh?" Liu Yiyi froze for a moment, although he had just come to the Tang Dynasty not long ago, but he also knew that moving to a house and changing homes was a major event here second only to worshiping the ancestors, and it had always been the head of the family.

"Dad, you are the head of our Liu family, you are still in charge of this kind of thing, right? I'm a junior, I don't know anything, I just want to do it, and I don't know how to start

Yi put down the hay in his hand, also stood up, and looked at Liu Lao in a daze

"Hehe, one," Lao Liu sprinkled the broken grass in the pot into the dregs of the ploughing cow, and then looked at Liu Yi and said, "Your thoughts, Dad understands, but Dad really doesn't want to do it." ”

Liu said honestly: "In the past, our family had a small business, and I came to be the master of the family and make up for it, but now I see that the family business has been earned by you little by little, and it is getting stronger day by day, and my father is already a little powerless." Therefore, in the future, the position of the head of our Liu family will be borne by you. ”

"Daddy"

"You don't need to say it," Lao Liu interrupted Liu Yiyi's words and said, "In the future, you will be in charge of the affairs of the family, and my father believes that you will do better." After a while, Dad will give you all the savings and account books of the family, and you will arrange and use them in a unified manner. ”

The idea of handing over the power of the family to Liu Yiyi, when Liu Yiyi got the thirty hectares of arable land, Lao Liu had it in his heart, and the eldest son was more capable than him, which was something that Lao Liu had to admit. He believes that if he hands over this home to the eldest son to take care of it, it will be a hundred times better than his father.

"Then, Dad, then I'm welcome." Seeing that Lao Liu was so insistent and sincere, Liu Yiyi no longer spoke politely to him, and he took over the burden of the head of the Liu family.

"Well, that's good." Lao Liu nodded, which can be regarded as a piece of peace of mind, and he said to Liu Yiyi: "Actually, my father originally planned to hand over this power to you after you and Chu Chu's girl became married and established a family." ”

"It's just that you have made such a big move now, fifty cows, three hundred acres of Yongye fields, and those money and silk things sent by Li Xiancheng yesterday, which made my father a little overwhelmed, so I had to give up my power in advance, and I will work hard for you in the future, big boy."

"Dad, don't worry, I won't let you down." Liu Yiyi took the wooden basin in Lao Liu's hand and assured Lao Liu in a strong voice.

He will definitely make their Lao Liu family truly prosperous and up. I will no longer worry about three meals, I will no longer worry about food and clothing, and I will no longer be bullied but dare not fight back.

"Well, Daddy believes in you." Lao Liu nodded and smiled, and said to Liu Yiyi: "Okay, your mother has cooked a meal, let's wash it, let's go over quickly." ”

"Hmm," Liu Yiyi put the wooden basin into the cow tent, patted the grass clippings off his body, and followed Liu Laoshi into the hall.

After breakfast, soon Li Dechen took more than 100 tenant farmers to report to Liuyi, and crowded the old Liu's house. And on the shoulders of these tenants, each of them carried a handful of wooden ones.

Sure enough, they were ready to use that for excavation. Yanagichi began to congratulate himself on his foresight.

"The owner," Li Dechen stepped forward and said to Liu Yiyi, "All the people are here, do you want to start digging now?" Please also ask the proprietor to show me. ”

"Well," Liu Yiyi nodded, and said to Li Dechen: "Uncle Li will take everyone first, and Liu will arrive later." Well, remember that in each group, at least two deep wells had to be dug, and the standard of the wellheads should be similar to the stone wells in the village. In the afternoon, I will send you some more tools to dig the wells, and I hope to dig all these deep wells within a month. ”

"A month?" Li Dechen was stunned, and then said to Liu Yiyi in a speechless manner: "Dongjia, how is it possible to dig a deep well in a month?!" Even if we work day and night, without eating, drinking, or sleeping, we won't be able to dig it out! ”

Li Dechen's performance was a little excited, digging a stone well in a month, how is this possible? Isn't the proprietor entertaining them?

"Hehe, please rest assured that Uncle Li is this, since Liu said that it will be dug up in a month, it will definitely be possible." Liu Yiyi smiled very confidently, looked at Li Dechen and said: "You just have to dig hard, and you don't have to work day and night, as long as you are not lazy, if you really can't dig it out, Liu will not blame you." ”

"Yes, host." The tenant farmers nodded yes one after another, and Li Dechen was relieved.

There is no need to rush to work day and night, there is no need to worry about the punishment of not completing the task on a regular basis, and there is a generous reward to be taken after digging, and it is a blessing for them to follow such a considerate and generous owner.

"The owner, if that's the case, then I'll retire first." Li Dechen bent over and saluted Liu Yiyi, and after seeing Liu Yiyi nodding in agreement, he led the people and walked towards the fields west of the village
