Back Off, Let Me Come

"You're the only one left?"

Lin Feng's expression was visibly disappointed and regretful.

If you can follow the vine and root out the enemy's divisions and transplant them all into the lord's fence, you will surely be able to show off your beauty when the lord leads his troops in triumph. The people of Longwu, Sibao and Minfeng counties can also benefit from this, but it's a pity...

The female monarch didn't know what Lin Feng was thinking, but she could only see the undisguised disappointment and regret on her face, and her chest trembled slightly, as if she was touched by something soft. Because craftsmen are not respected in this world, among scholars, peasants, and merchants, they are only slightly better than merchants. To say they are masters is actually to give themselves a pat on the back. To put it bluntly, they are two craftsmen who make a living by their craftsmanship.

The teacher came from a humble background, just a farm girl, and she was an orphan girl picked up from the dead when the teacher was middle-aged.

Since then, the master and apprentice have been dependent on each other and have been at home all over the world. They rely on their craftsmanship to help people in need make utensils in exchange for a small salary. Because they have no fixed place to live and sleep in the open, they often face the threat of wild animals and never have a day's rest.

Officials are unattainable to her.

Lin Hucao in front of him would feel sorry for a craftsman who had passed away. This made the female queen's favorability towards Lin Feng immediately reach the point where she felt that this person was kind. Well, he is a good official! She was distracted for a while, and Lin Feng had already settled everything.

He ordered his servants to clean up the room in the backyard of the government office, prepare some new clothes, and open a separate "studio" for the queen - she made a lot of noise sawing and chiseling wood last night. Lin Feng's ears are so strong that it's hard not to hear.

"No, it doesn't have to be like this."

The female monarch waved her hands in fear.

Lin Feng said: "This is what Bei Nujun deserves."

The female queen looked confused, and Lin Feng explained to her: "The cotton remover you made will benefit many people. Because of its existence, in the future, there will be huge benefits for the people that you can't imagine, and there will even be no one left. It’s freezing in the winter!”

The female monarch opened her mouth from ear to ear in surprise: "Seriously?"

Lin Feng patted her shoulder: "You have countless merits!"

Just five words, the impact and shock caused to the queen made her unable to recover for a long time - does she, an ordinary craftsman, deserve such praise? She wanted to question it, but since the words came from Lin Hucao's mouth, she had to believe them.

Lin Hucao would definitely not lie to himself!

By noon, Nujun's "studio" had been tidied up. The walls, desks and even the planing table were filled with dazzling new tools of all sizes. As soon as she entered the room, her eyes were firmly caught and she could no longer look away.

"Linhu Cao, are these all for me to use?"

She was almost incoherent.

Although she also owns many of the tools, the wooden handles of many of the tools are coated with paste. A large part of them were passed down from her ancestors to her master, who in turn passed them on to her. She had always wanted to buy herself some new equipment, but due to lack of financial resources, she could only stare blankly.

She touched this thing and touched that thing.

I wish I could hold them and never let go.

Unexpectedly, Lin Feng smiled and made a gesture of invitation to her.

The female monarch was so happy that her heart was beating: "Is there anything else?"

"Bei Nujun, follow me."

She personally led her to the "studio" behind the screen. There was a small room here, with three walls filled with stacks of letters, and a bed in the middle that looked very good to sleep on. A quilt was piled neatly on the bedside.

Lin Feng pointed to the bookcases on several walls, his eyes as gentle as a clear spring: "Bei Nujun, I ordered people to sort these out from Hu Cao's library. I think you might like them."

Nu Jun didn't speak because she felt her heart beating wildly, as if it was jumping out of her throat. She was so nervous that she stepped forward with both hands and feet and took down a scroll of letters at hand. There are small pieces of bamboo strung on the rope of the slips, and the "Mo Jing·Jing Shuo" is written on it.

There are also many comments and comments in it!

Her eyes opened wider and wider with joy, and she screamed uncontrollably.

Even trotting in a small room.

When she came back to her senses and saw Lin Feng's smiling eyes, she blushed suddenly, and her out-of-control and ugly behavior just now was noticed.

"Lin, Lin Hucao...can I see these too?"

He asked in words, but in action he already held the volume tightly.

Lin Feng nodded: "This is originally prepared for female monarchs."

The female monarch turned her back and patted her hot face, then secretly pinched her wrist again, causing her to gasp in pain.

It hurts when pinched, but she wasn't dreaming!

But soon, her attention was attracted by the bamboo pieces on the bookcase on the other side, all of which were "Tiangong Kaiwu".

Nujun excitedly opened the bookcase and tried hard to hold down her breath.

"Can you see this, this, and this? Really?"

Lin Feng affirmed: "Yes."

The female monarch immediately let out a cry of excitement.

Her master's biggest regret in life was that she could not see "Tiangong Kaiwu" with her own eyes. The teacher also said that her teacher told her about the existence of this book. "Tiangong Kaiwu" was circulated among their teachers, but no one in their generation had actually seen her.

because--

It is said that this sacred book is in the holy land of mountains and seas.

The holy land of mountains and seas requires courage and courage to set foot on.

The embarrassing thing is that 90% of the many Mohists in their sect are women, and the remaining 10% of the men are ordinary people without talent. In the words of the teacher, wouldn’t it be good to have this talent to enter and exit the general phase? Who wants to do the hard work? This resulted in fewer and fewer inheritances and harder and harder days. She was the only one left in this branch. She didn't know whether other branches had been passed down from person to person.

I guess even if there were, life would be miserable.

When I was a child, I didn’t understand, what’s so important about a book? But as she grew older, she became obsessed with "Tiangong Kaiwu" like her teacher. To this end, she strives to make friends with talents in cultivation. If they form a good relationship, maybe one day they will enter the holy land of mountains and seas and be willing to help them find "Tiangong Kaiwu". Even if the possibility is unlikely, but - what if?

I never expected it, but here it is!

She felt like she had never been so happy in her life!

If Lin Hucao hadn't been there, she would have wanted to let go and roll back and forth on the bed with these babies in her arms.

Hey, speaking of the bed, she found that the quilt was a little strange.

She couldn't help but reach out her little hand and touch it. In an instant, an unprecedented silky touch ran along her fingertips, spreading throughout her body like an electric current. This quilt is silky and slightly cool. The key is that it is light in weight. It is soft and fluffy when you hold it. "Is it cotton?"

Lin Feng said: "It's silk."

The female monarch was instantly petrified on the spot.

She had heard that quilts made of silk were light and warm, but her poor imagination could not describe the specific feeling, and she never thought of realizing it today. The female monarch was a little embarrassed now, and she hugged the letter nervously and said, "You, you are so good to me."

It was so good that she didn't know what to do, and the words Yu Yuanmou said flew out of her mind very inappropriately, about the hero who saved the beauty and gave her body to him... Although she had also imagined it, how could the important matter of marriage be a trivial matter? I can't catch up with others either.

Nu Jun waited nervously for Lin Feng's response.

Lin Feng was very honest and told the real reason: "The female monarch has great talents, this is just to attract favors."

Female Jun pointed at herself: "Me? Great talent?"

Can you still relate to this word? Even though Lin Feng had previously said that the cotton remover she made could benefit all people, she had not seen it with her own eyes, so she only thought that he was exaggerating.

Lin Feng nodded again: "Yes."

She took steps back to make progress: "However, I know that talented pillars like Nujun may not like the constraints of officialdom, and that's okay. Recruitment depends more on fate. Nujun doesn't have to worry. Before General Bai comes back, , you can live here with peace of mind, so that we can fulfill our friendship as landlords."

When Nujun came to her senses, Lin Feng had already left.

She patted her face: "Are you dreaming?"

He took out the teacher's memorial tablet from the big wooden box, shook a volume of "Tiangong Kaiwu" in front of the memorial tablet, smiled a little silly, scratched his head and said: "It's a pity that this is someone else's treasure, otherwise the disciple would have to copy it." I’ll burn it for you..."

"However, if the disciple sees it, it is equivalent to you seeing it."

She didn't know when Bai Su would be victorious, so she worked day and night, seizing all the time to read the books in the small room. She read for three whole days, and the food was packed and delivered to the canteen by servants. When she walked out of the workshop again, she felt a bit rancid.

There are too many books.

The more I look at it, the more I feel insignificant and that I don’t have enough time.

So, she made a decision that went against her ancestors: "Linhu Cao, is it too late for me to accept the recruitment?"

She didn't bother to tidy up her appearance, and her legs ran very fast.

Following her memory, she went straight to Lin Feng's Government Affairs Office. The officials along the way had been warned long ago, and no one told her not to run quickly.

A bang!

She opened the door to the government office.

But, by chance, I met three pairs of eyes.

She stammered: "Yes, I'm sorry——"

At this moment, I wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.

Lin Feng just smiled gently and said to the young scribe on the side: "Master Secretary, this is the capable man who presented the cotton remover."

When the young scribe heard this, his face became as cold as ice and snow melting.

Another scribe dressed in women's clothing also looked over with joy, his eyes lit up, and he said: "I have heard that sir is a great talent for a long time, and I just got to see it today. Take a closer look, and you really look like a dragon and a phoenix. In the next household, there is an official named Cao, whose surname is Shen, whose name is Zhi and whose courtesy name is Yaohe."

Nujun also imitated Shen Zhi and bowed in return.

She said: "My name is Beijiu, and my courtesy name is Zhoukou."

Shen Zhi was puzzled: "Sir, this name is so strange."

"When my master picked me up, he said that my cry was better than the chirping of birds, so he named me." Beijiu scratched her head. More than one person thought her name was strange, but she was satisfied. The teacher's surname was "Bei" and his given name was Chiu. The Chinese character was split from the Chinese character "Chi".

Shen Zhi smiled gently: "That's right, sir, this name is not only childish but also full of love and affection from my mentor."

Bei Jiu's face turned red as she spoke.

Alas, you have to be an educated person to speak well.

Unlike Yun Yuanmou, that idiot who only makes fun of himself.

"Is what the talented lady said just now true?"

Lin Feng did not forget what Bei Jiu said when he opened the door.

"Yeah." Bei Jiu said very quietly.

Although the voice was small, which of the three people present had poor hearing?

Qishan secretly sent a message to Lin Feng.

【This person will be arranged by you. 】

The collection of books "Tiangong Kaiwu" is of great significance and should not be easily seen by outsiders, but Lin Feng urgently sent an urgent letter to himself to apply, and Qi Shan only agreed. I originally wanted to meet Bei Jiu and personally check to see what his character was like, but he had been staying in the workshop and wouldn't come out, so I had to give up. We happened to meet each other today, and Qi Shan had a good impression of Bei Jiu.

Lin Feng and Shen Zhi stood up together to see Qi Shan off.

As soon as Qishan left, Beijiu relaxed visibly.

Shen Zhi joked: "Are you afraid of the chief clerk?"

Bei Jiu nodded timidly: "This is the first time I have seen such a strong and serious person, but he must be a good person."

Shen Zhi burst out laughing.

"We will all be colleagues from now on, it's good to be familiar with them."

"I'm afraid I can't do it well..."

Shen Zhi said comfortingly: "Everything is difficult at the beginning."

Fortunately, they are what she is best at. Lin Feng assigned a few subordinates to help in the workshop to help her understand government affairs.

Lin Feng warned: "The most important thing is to help improve and organize farm tools, learn from the experience in "Tiangong Kaiwu", and create more objects that benefit the people and facilitate the people. Seeing that summer is about to begin, the nearby counties and counties will have to wait until summer comes. , there will be less rain. Even if my lord has built a large number of canals in recent years, manpower is still needed to collect water for irrigation. If we can work hard on this, the people of the county and county can benefit. "

Bei Jiu was serious and accepted the task.

She has wandered in many places over the years and has met many low-class people and even untouchables, but she rarely hears complimentary words about the superiors from their mouths. The atmosphere in Xiaocheng is completely different. She - she really, really likes it here!

Lin Feng was still busy, so Shen Zhi took Bei Jiu to get acquainted with Hucao's office, and also took her to register and create a register so that the office could distribute salary every month. After completing the circle, Bei Jiu was in a trance, with only one thought in her mind - she was out of poverty!

Regarding the gender misunderstanding between Lin Feng and Shen Zhi, she didn't know until many days later, when Shen Zhi dug her out of the sawdust pile and asked her to go to the massage parlor for a massage. When the two of them took off their loose outer shirts, leaving only a thin inner shirt, Bei Jiu's eyes widened.

"Breathe, breathe—chest—"

She was so frightened that she pointed at the undulations under their clothes.

Shen Zhi looked at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng looked at Bei Jiu.

Then, she looked down at herself: "It's okay."

I don’t know if it’s because of the weight of the big wooden box or because Beijiu’s living conditions are not good, but her curves are as good as those of her own protagonist.

Beijiu: "..."

With this sudden glance, he saw the steaming small bathtub in the perfume shop. Lin Feng and Shen Zhi were soaking in the water, leaving only their waistbands.

Bei Jiu huddled in the corner with her face flushed. For a long time, she couldn't hold it in any longer: "But, aren't you literary scholars?"

Can a literary scholar be a woman? ? ?

Lin Feng smiled slyly: "Why not?"

Shen Zhi's cheeks turned red and her eyes were misty. He actually looked at Bei Jiu with charming eyes and teased her: "Zhou Kou, you and I have been honest with each other today. Can't you tell whether I am a boy or a girl? My heart hurts. Do you want to rub it for me?" ?”

Bei Jiu was bewitched by her charming attitude.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock——

Threads of red smeared on the water in the bath.

She has a nosebleed.

The second day.

Beijiu made another decision that went against his ancestors——

"Linhu Cao, I want to practice!"

Although she started very late, and although she has missed her enlightenment due to her age, as long as she is determined, she believes that it is never too late! She wants to be a real Mohist!

She met Lin Feng's smiling eyes and looked at her gentle smile.

"good!"

One word is enough to equal the sound of nature.

I woke up feeling much better today and my mind wasn't heavy anymore. I’ll start making amends to everyone tomorrow.

PS: Shiitake mushrooms are really talented at naming them, so give yourself a thumbs up. You can also find a name that matches the character Zhoukou.
