Chapter 09: Cows are meant to wear their noses
Liu Laoshi woke up late the next day, and when he woke up, the sun was already on the fourth shot, and it was almost noon.
As he walked out of the bedroom rubbing his head, which was still a little drowsy due to hangover, he saw Liu Yiyi walking towards the cow tent with a bundle of hay, so he walked up and followed.
The ploughing cow is their baby's pimple, not to mention its role, the silver spent just to buy it made him feel distressed for a long time, five taels of silver, if it really died, wouldn't the silver be lost?
"Dad, you're awake. After drinking so much alcohol last night, there was nothing uncomfortable, right? When Liu Yiyi saw Liu Laoshi coming out, he slowed down and walked with Liu Laoshi.
"Well, nothing, it's just that I drank too much last night, and my head is still a little heavy. It will be fine in a while. Oh, by the way, how did your Uncle Yang leave yesterday, he seems to have drunk a lot. Didn't you leave him behind? ”
Liu Yiyi said with a smile: "Dad, Uncle Yang's alcohol consumption is much larger than yours, and he is still like no one after two pots of wine." In the end, seeing that you were drunk, he talked to me for a while and then went back by himself. ”
Liu said honestly: "This is also, your Uncle Yang used to be a runner in the rivers and lakes, and he has martial arts, so it's normal for me to drink him." It's just that it's so late to let him go back, it's rude. ”
"What?" Liu Yiyi automatically filtered out the latter sentence, and asked Liu honestly with interest: "Uncle Yang used to run the rivers and lakes?" Can't see it at all? Was he good before? ”
"I don't know if it's powerful or not, but Wang Kui didn't dare to provoke him easily when he was the most fierce. Otherwise, how could Wang Shuai spare you so easily last time, and was willing to pay a tael of silver? That's all given by looking at your Uncle Yang's face. ”
No wonder those headhunters would be so polite to him as a common man, and this Yang Bofang is also a figure with a head and a face.
"Then how could he care so much about our family's affairs? first saved me, and yesterday he came to remind me to beware of Wang Kui. It seems that he is not related to our family, right? ”
"That's some ancestral relationship, you don't know too much about a child's family." Liu honestly said perfunctorily. "How's our cow, are you getting better? I'm still counting on my efforts after the beginning of spring. ”
Liu Yiyi smiled smugly: "It's already eighty percent, and it will be okay to pour garlic juice on it again at noon." ”
"Really? It's good so soon?! ”
Lao Liu obviously didn't expect Liu's garlic juice to be so effective. In the past, the cow was either dragged and dragged for half a year, or it was dragged and dragged to death, and I have not heard of a cow that could be cured overnight.
"If you don't believe me, go and see, it's now able to eat and sleep, and I'm feeding it with all this hay."
Liu Yiyi raised the hay in his hand. How to say that he is also a high-achieving student who graduated from a famous agricultural university in China, and treating an ordinary sick cow with diarrhea is not a small dish for him.
Liu Laoshi quickened his pace and plunged his head into the calf's buttocks, his eyes fixed on the calf's buttocks, which were much drier than last night.
Yanagichi threw the hay next to the calf and let it bow its head to chew and swallow.
In the absence of modern food, this leafy hay is the best food for cattle and sheep in winter.
"Eat, eat, eat more, and in a month you will be able to go down to the field to help." Liu Laoshi was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, looking at the calf and smirking vigorously, five times the money could buy a real farming cow, and he felt that he had taken a big advantage.
"Dad, while there is some time now, we can't put the cow's nose on it first. Otherwise, after a while, it won't be easy to wear when it grows up. Liu Yiyi looked at the calf who was eating happily and proposed on the side.
"Wearing a bull's nose? How to wear it? Lao Liu was very puzzled, why couldn't he understand his son's words after only a few days of hard work?
Liu Yiyi was also stunned, why didn't the Tang Dynasty wear a cow's nose as a method? So how did they plough the land with oxen, relying on the reins around their necks?
"Dad, isn't the morning glory going to be the nose of the cow? Why haven't you seen anyone wear a bull's nose before? ”
"What morning glory? Why did you talk nonsense in broad daylight, how did you pull the bull's nose in such a small place? Aren't you kidding? Liu Laoshi began to wonder if his son was beaten stupidly by Wang Shuai, otherwise how could a good person talk such hilarious nonsense?
Liu Yiyi smiled, no, right? Then let him start with me.
He walked up to the calf's head, stroked the calf's ear, and said loudly to Lao Liu: "Daddy, cow, you have to wear your nose!" ”
Seeing that Liu Yiyi was serious, Lao Liu didn't dare to ignore it anymore, after all, Comrade Xiaoliu had just cured a sick cow for him. He may have his own reason for saying this, although he Lao Liu didn't understand this truth very well.
"Then tell me, why and how to wear it?"
"Dad, when you used to use other people's cattle to plow the land, did you think those cows were not very easy to use? For example, it refers to the east and west, and the guide goes north, and from time to time it will take two steps back, and people with less strength can't catch it at all? For example, when it sees something green, it wants to eat it, and sometimes it even takes two bites of a crop? ”
Liu Yiyi did not answer Lao Liu's question, but successively said the problems encountered by people in this era when driving cattle.
Lao Liu nodded when he heard this, and agreed with him, Liu Yiyi's questions were all to the point, and they were all headaches.
"Then you wear a bull's nose! With it, all problems will be solved! "Liu Yiyi feels like a dog skin plaster seller." Wearing a bull's nose, you can go wherever you want it to go, without slacking off at all, and without too much force, even a child like Xiaohui can easily control it. ”
Lao Liu was physically and mentally excited when he heard this, and the blood pressure in his whole body ran to his face.
"Really?!"
"Really!!"
"Then wear it!!"
"Daddy! What are you going to wear? ”
At this time, Liu Erjo walked in from outside, followed by a middle-aged Confucian in his forties. Looks like a gentleman in their private school.
Liu Ertiao brought Confucius to Lao Liu and Xiao Yanagi, and respectfully introduced him: "Mr. Huang, these two are Jia Yan and my brother. Yesterday you came out with that uplink, and the downlink was from my brother's hand. ”
