A little sweet through the fragrant

Ye Cunshan just wanted to sleep, so he was perfunctory.

"Okay."

Yuncheng didn't hear it at all, immersed in his joy, and mentioned several materials that can be used to make paper.

"Straw, corn stalks, some grasses and bamboo shoot shells are also acceptable. It will be faster to use mulberry trees, and bamboo is the best."

This matter is very important to him. After the raw materials are finished, he talks about various processes like an endorsement, and what is difficult to get.

After finishing talking one by one, Ye Cunshan also fell asleep amidst his mutterings, snoring lightly.

Yun Cheng: ...

He turned over angrily, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The bed was still hard and the quilt was still rough, but Yun Cheng had a good night's sleep that night.

The next day, the two got up early.

As Ye Cunshan said, the family was too poor to let go.

The porridge in the morning was so thin that there were only a few grains of rice, and the coarse grain pancakes were reduced from four pieces to two pieces.

He cracked an egg into the pot, cut up mushrooms and wild vegetables, and put them in a large bowl.

Yun Cheng went to the chicken coop to touch the eggs in the morning, squatted down at the mouth of the chicken coop, stared at the three chickens, stretched his small hands in several times, and quickly retracted them.

He is afraid of being pecked by chickens.

Ye Cunshan called him twice, but he didn't hear a response. When he came out to see this scene, he couldn't hold back his expression and was amused by him.

He went over, lifted Yuncheng away, hooked the chicken ring with one foot, and squatted down to touch two eggs. When they came out, Yuncheng's ears were red with embarrassment.

In a low voice: "They have been staring at me..."

Ye Cunshan saw him as thin and white, and only had two words for him: squeamish.

I don't know how the past ten years came here.

After the meal, the two of them had to go to the patriarch to register the genealogy, which was equivalent to going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the certificate in modern times.

Yuncheng changed into clothes with few patches, tied his hair with a wooden hairpin, and wiped the broken hair that had been blown up by water pressure, and dressed up in a simple and solemn way.

After taking the silver, he went down the mountain with Ye Cunshan to find the patriarch.

The head of the Ye family is also the head of Jinghe Village.

Later, when Yuncheng wanted to buy the land back, it was also on his side.

"My family originally only had seven acres of land, two acres of paddy fields, and five acres of dry fields. I sold it for 13 taels of silver, plus the one you lent me before, and the total is 16 taels."

"Father's funeral was arranged by the village chief for me. I chose a better coffin and erected a new monument for my father and mother. It took four taels."

Buying them all back is not enough.

Ye Cunshan said, "Just buy the paddy fields."

The dry land of Yuncheng's family is severely divided, and it is all leftovers that other families don't want. The land is not fertile and has a lot of sand and gravel.

Yesterday, I asked Ye Liang to say hello in advance, but today the patriarch Ye Gen stayed at home.

When the two came over, he spread out the family tree on his desk, and Yun Cheng saw Ye Cunshan's name with sharp eyes.

His life is the generation of "Cun".

In the future, there will be rain and snow, gold and silver.

Ye Gen is in his 40s, tall and strong.

He was very kind. When he saw the two of them, he came over and gave each of them a red egg.

"Let Guizhi cook it this morning, eat it and live a good life."

Guizhi is his wife.

Apparently, Ye Gen also knew about the quarrel at Yuncheng's house yesterday afternoon, so he didn't ask their elders what they thought of the marriage.

Seeing Ye Cunshan nodding, Yuncheng took it. The egg was still hot, and it burned from his palm to his face, staining it with a thin layer of red.

"Thank you, Uncle Ye."

Registration is simple, and routine interviews are voluntary.

Afterwards, he specifically told Yuncheng: "Cunshan is a capable person. You two have a hard time at first, but you can survive after a while. Don't be fooled by your uncle and the others. If you believe in the nonsense that you can wear new clothes and eat enough, put yourself Lives are sold."

Yun Cheng nodded obediently, with a serious face: "I know, I won't listen to them."

Only then did Ye Gen laugh, "Where's the land? Will you buy it back?"

It has been discussed on the way and handed over to Ye Cunshan.

There are few paddy fields and high prices, which account for the majority.

After buying it back, I lost six taels of silver, and there was only six taels left in my pocket. Yun Cheng felt distressed when he saw it.

However, he was born with an illness, and he is used to having fun in bitterness. Holding the warm red egg in his hand, he also smiled happily: "There is an extra meal today!"

Ye Cunshan felt that he was stupid, so he didn't respond, and a smile unconsciously hung on his lips.

After leaving Ye Gen's house, he met a lot of villagers pretending to meet by chance and jokingly asking questions.

Under the protection of Ye Cunshan, Yun Cheng was a quail with peace of mind.

Ye Cunshan talked too much and got annoyed, so he grabbed Yuncheng's hand, and if someone asked him again, he would shake the hand they were holding.

Yun Cheng blushed the whole time.

Looking down, Ye Cunshan's wheat-colored skin was set off by his snow-white wrists, which was quite dark.

His name is Ye Cunshan, "Look down."

Ye Cunshan looked at it and pinched Yuncheng's wrist.

"Skinny."

You have to take good care of it and make up for it.

During the slack season, there are many idlers, and a few new things in the village are enough for people to chat for several days after dinner.

There were people accosting along the way, and then they held hands and chatted like no one else, that kind of sloppy energy made people get goosebumps.

Later, when I bumped into them, no one continued to ask.

Instead, after the two of them walked away, they gathered together and discussed in low voices.

"When Ye Cunshan was admitted to Tongsheng the year before last, how many people came to talk about marriage, and he didn't want anyone. He said that he wanted to earn fame before we could talk about marriage." Aunt Liu couldn't hide her gloating, "Now that I haven't earned fame, marriage is just like that. Quietly, marrying a poor man with a bad reputation!"

Clan villages are extremely united when they are exclusive, but each has its own contradictions.

People from Ye Cunshan know how to do things and work quickly.In the same way, he was illiterate, but he had connections with the people in the county, and even went to Fucheng by boat to do business.

At that time, people who went to Ye's house to talk about marriage would have broken through the threshold, and many matchmakers from neighboring villages would come to ask.

It's a pity that after he went to Fucheng, his heart became wild and he insisted on studying.

Others have been admitted to the scholar at the age of 15, but he was only enlightened at the age of 15.

On the grounds that he was still young and lacked energy, he rejected one person after another who proposed to marry him.

The Ye family even had a few fights because of this.

When Ye Cunshan was separated, many people waited and watched.

It is said that no family members support him in studying for the imperial examinations. Sooner or later, he will have to calm down to farm and hunt, and be a mud-legged farmer with peace of mind.

But others seem to be concerned about it, but no one cares about it.

The Ye family is too ruthless.

A piece of land was not given, and there was no help.

No one can live on the northwest wind. In just a few months, Ye Cunshan has become a dilapidated settlement.

On the contrary, some people with rich land and money recruited him to be his son-in-law and promised to support him to study, but he refused.

Brother Ning of Aunt Liu's family is like this.

Later, he said that he would marry with money, but Ye Cunshan didn't agree.

At that time, some people said that Ye Cunshan might not want to be a bachelor for the rest of his life, and some people ridiculed that he was thinking about enrolling in the imperial examination and marrying the daughter of the old man's family.

As a result, Ye Cunshan married Yuncheng.

This time, it was inevitable that someone would compare Aunt Liu's Ning Ge'er. She heard a lot of people laughing at her family's Ning Ge'er for giving up money!

Aunt Liu gets angry when she thinks about it, and speaks meanly: "Brother Cheng used to be unable to give a fart. He stayed at home all day long and didn't go out. When he came to wash clothes, his chest shrunk and his back was shrunk. Now he laughs like a honey. I don't know. How happy my father thought he was dead!"

No one answered these words, and after a while of silence, the topic was bluntly brought to Chen Jinhua, and then they talked about how much money Chen Jinhua, the stepmother who separated the eldest son of the Ye family, would give.

Chen Jinhua is also troubled by this matter.

When the family was separated, Ye Cunshan didn't take anything. Ye Da felt guilty for a while, and the two elders wanted to force him to marry, so they wrote a dowry gift of 20 taels on the separation deed.

Because of this, she has always been wary of Ye Cunshan's marriage.

Now Ye Cunshan got married without warning.

Chen Jinhua suspected that he did it on purpose.

Yuncheng is easy to handle, the filial piety period is different, and you can still get money for nothing if you don't hold a banquet.

After the partnership is broken up, she can't ask for the money back!

Ye Da was weaving bamboo baskets, and was dazed by Chen Jinhua. He frowned and said, "Why are you wandering around? Isn't Cunshan just marrying a wife?"

When the family was separated, Chen Jinhua was generous.

Regardless of how outsiders comment on her behavior, she is quite beautiful when she speaks by herself, and Ye Da is just coaxing her to be sure.

Chen Jinhua said: "I am also happy that he is married. The money prepared for his marriage has been kept alone, waiting for him to bring his wife to pick it up. But look at who he is married to? Then Yuncheng is still in the filial piety period, save The mountain took him home, and he slept on the mountain last night!"

Ye Da frowned even deeper, thinking about the reason why he separated his son in the first place, he lowered his eyes again, "So what? The two bachelors have also passed the Ming Road, so there is nothing wrong with it."

Chen Jinhua pinched Zhongye Daming's door with one blow: "Then he still has the imperial examination, how can he take the exam?"

Ye Da stopped weaving bamboo baskets.

Although he had no financial support for his son's imperial examination career, it is a great honor to have a scholar in the family.

Ye Cunshan had an idea, and said he could save money for the exam.

He took three newly made bamboo baskets to the patriarch's house, ready to talk to him.

Ye Cunshan and Yun Cheng went home to get things.

This time he took all the bedding, Yuncheng thought it was for heating in winter, but when he returned to the mountain, Ye Cunshan packed another bedroom for him.

Yuncheng was completely confused by him.

Why did you just register and sleep in a separate room?

He looked at the door.

Ye Cunshan had reason and evidence: "You must keep your filial piety, and you cannot have intercourse within a hundred days."

Yuncheng was puzzled: "Does this mean that you can't have sex?"

Yes, the bed was made for him.

Ye Cunshan also diverted Yuncheng's attention from washing his hair and bathing, which Yuncheng was very concerned about.

"It's sunny today, I can wash my hair and dry it in the sun."

If it's colder, it won't be easy to wash even if it's sunny.

Yuncheng really didn't care about it, he put the red egg on the bedside properly, and hurriedly went to Ye Cunshan's house to pack up his things.

The water was going to boil for a while, Yuncheng followed Ye Cunshan around like a little tail.

In the end, he was pushed on a small bench and asked him to pass firewood to light the fire.

And Ye Cunshan himself took the book he brought back yesterday and continued to read.

Yuncheng also wants to learn to recognize traditional Chinese characters, and wants Ye Cunshan's help to try papermaking.

He strikes up a conversation: "Can you teach me how to read?"

Ye Cunshan kept his eyes on the book, "Yes, but I don't have pen and paper for you to practice calligraphy. I'll make you a sand table."

As he said that, he remembered that Yuncheng had muttered about papermaking for half the night last night, and when he saw Yuncheng's bright eyes, he knew that he hadn't given up and wanted to try again.

"How did you get the papermaking skills, let's talk about it."

Yuncheng said it again immediately.

He has seen a lot of video processes, all of which are more bamboo and mulberry.

The cycle of making paper from bamboo is too long, so you can try it with mulberry for the time being.

This is easy to handle.

Ye Cunshan had seen all the materials he mentioned, and the two lived at the foot of the mountain, so it was convenient to cut trees and bamboo.

Instructing Yuncheng to boil the water well, Ye Cunshan took a hatchet and went to chop five mulberry trees, removed the excess branches and carried them back to the front yard.
