"Why do you stand stupidly, hurry over and meet, do you want me to wait for you?" Yinliu leaned on the edge of the table and knocked the melon seeds, spit out the melon seed skin on the ground, and saw that Shi Gui stood still, snorted, and spit out two melon seed skins: "This is what, either come or go, and there is also your day." ”

Shi Guitong was worth a total of five taels of silver, and the Shi family husband and wife returned half a tael of silver, so that Mrs. Chen could find a master to hire, these should be chewed, she knew this, but she couldn't stay in vain and not work, Mrs. Chen walked to the door, and first saw Shi Gui taking a small broom and sweeping the skin of melon seeds.

"Yinliu, you go buy some live fish, Dalang will come back at night. Chen Niangzi said to buy fish, Yinliu still drooped her face, to say that Da Lang was coming back, she immediately stood up, and bought fish for a while, not only bought fish, but also cut the meat, Xingxing head said: "Take this boiled meat sauce as a topping." ”

Chen Niangzi's son worked on the dock for a short time, gave birth to a shoulder of meat, came back at night and sat at the small table, like a mountain, when the noodles were parted, the silver willow gave him a full bowl, and the bamboo shoots on the toppings were going to fall, but jumped away from Shi Gui and told her to eat all the noodles, Chen Niangzi knocked on the edge of the bowl with chopsticks: "But Shi Guihe's noodles burn the stove?"

Yinliu then gave her a spoon, picked vegetables and ate in a bowl with Da Lang, Da Lang was wearing a cloth gown, the sky was still freezing, and he was full of meat, eating on the two tables, and under the table Yin Liu hooked his legs with his feet.

At night, Shi Gui hugged the quilt and went to sleep with Mrs. Chen, waiting for Mrs. Chen to burn her feet and pass her head, listening to the chirping sound in the hut opposite, Mrs. Chen snorted coldly: "And let my son be used." ”

Shi Gui was chilled when he heard this, but he didn't understand, so he laid the floor on the ground, and Mrs. Chen blew out the lamp before saying: "You are Sister Bai who entrusted me, and I will find a good place for you." ”

Those are ordered before she goes to collect people, small business, really want to buy five or five taels, Chen Niangzi does not have so much cash in hand, don't pay for it, she makes up for it herself, if you don't want people, you will not return the money.

Only Shi Gui was brought out by her looking pitiful, and she was also satisfied that Shi Gui would look at people and be diligent, otherwise where would she keep her, she would have sold it early.

The two hadn't gotten up in the morning, and yesterday in the middle of the night, Mrs. Chen had a good dream, she got up early in the morning and opened the door, the tea had been boiled on the stove, and the porridge and rice had been cooked, she nodded at Shi Gui: "It depends on your creation." ”

Shi Gui didn't know what she was talking about, and yesterday's apricots were already "good creation", so he trembled with fear, but he still smiled at him, turned around and silently did everything at home.

The alley outside became more and more lively, and Yinliu opened the door, only half of a button-down shirt was buttoned, revealing a piece of white breasts, and pointed to Shi Gui: "Go to the alley and buy two bowls of spicy soup." ”

Saying that, he threw out a few big coins, and they fell to the ground, Shi Gui couldn't help but bow his head and pick it up, Chen Niangzi has only one son, and she can't mess with Yinliu at this time.

Yinliu twisted her waist and went back, and when Shi Gui sent the soup, she hadn't freshened up, put her hair on the placket, hooked Da Lang's waist with her hand, and drew a circle on his chest with her thin white fingers: "If you leave her down, you should call the girl, okay?"

Shi Gui listened to it in his ears, staying and working in Chen Niangzi's house, it is better than selling as a girl, she is related to Aunt Bai, and there will always be a day when she will go back in the future, no matter how bad Yinliu's temper is, she can always bear her.

"It's a loss to keep you, and you still want to keep her?" Chen Dalang said this, Yin Liujiao laughed twice, and after a while, the bed board sounded again, Shi Gui took a breath, went into the house to clean the house for Mrs. Chen, looked at the good weather, took out the quilt and dried it, as soon as she stopped, she remembered the seven girls who were sold.

There are several cages on the boat, piled with flags, which are going to the village to sing on stage, and the two are sold there, and they are excellent in this life, her fingers are tight, and now in this world, she can really sell it as a girl, but it's good.

Mrs. Chen came back at night, Shi Gui went out to greet her, and saw her with a smile on her face, and she was carrying it with a heart, and at this time she was even more surprised, Mrs. Chen laughed: "It is also your creation, the house is used by the Song family to spend summer, and it may not come in handy for three years and five years, and there is no master on weekdays, I am familiar with Mrs. Zheng on the stove, and you are with her." ”

When Shi Gui heard this, her knees weakened, and the natural disasters* all told her to catch up, and she knew that compassion was not a joke.

Mrs. Chen was very proud of being able to do this, so that Shi Gui went to the wine shop at the entrance of the alley to play a corner of wine, and asked Yinliu to rectify two appetizers, Da Lang went out, Yinliu shook his hand and was lazy, and found out the money by himself, so that Shi Gui went outside to buy a drawer of steamed dumplings, and cut a pig's ear.

Yinliu saved the idea of marrying into the Chen family, and added wine to Mrs. Chen, she was sold by a large local family, and when she came out, she hid some money close to her, and her hands were loose and she was not in a hurry to find a buyer, so she rented the Chen family's house, but she didn't want to hook up with Chen Dalang.

She flattered Mrs. Chen every word, knowing that Shi Gui had arrived at the Song family, she praised it one after another: "It's still my mother who has the means, and that family is not easy to enter." ”

The old lady of the Song family is very famous, he told the old man twice on the prince and the prince, and the sage did not allow it, the family of the generations of scholars, to the old lady of the Song Dynasty, is the second Jinshi in the family, the son was young and won the Jinshi, and now in the old house of the Song family, there are still three pairs of Jinshi flagpoles erected in front of the door.

Sweetwater Town is the hometown of Mrs. Song, who set up a villa here to spend the summer, and built a lot of construction when the house was built, but he never came after it was built.

The main family does not live and there is also a housekeeper to watch the house, this garden has a building, a pond, a bridge and a Langfang, how can the housekeeper sweep and watch the flowers, and the kitchen is not far away, Chen Niangzi is considered to have found a good errand for Shi Gui.

A corner of wine is all Chen Niangzi eats, the side dishes are left for Yinliu Shi Gui two, Shi Gui ate two white flour steamed buns, yesterday she didn't dare to eat more, find out the number of ways to let go of the stomach, eat two years of elm bark mill mixed with cornmeal made of nest head, see this white flour, she can't help but swallow saliva.

Waiting for Mrs. Chen to go to sleep drunk, Yinliu was crooked on the table, her apricot eyes were shining, her face seemed to be covered with rouge, and she dusted off her long nails: "Then what is good about the Song family, the villa for summer is difficult to show in front of the master, you should be a good place." ”

I can't see the master's family, what else do I talk about, I am a rough girl when I go in, and I will still be rough for a lifetime, and I have to do those who have done a good job and have shown my face in front of the master, so that I can go up, and I will have a good future later.

Shi Gui knew that she was sold by a big family, but looking at her appearance, the most unbearable widow in the countryside was more serious than her, and the daughter of the Liu family in the village went to the city to be a girl, and when she was old, she returned it, and the money she saved built a house and bought land, and she also bought a dowry for herself.

The same is to be a girl, but Yinliu was sold, she just wanted to avoid the past and not answer, Yinliu reached out and pinched her face, carefully looked at her eyebrows, snorted coldly, shook off her hand, and said that she was eight years old, but in fact she was more than seven years old, she had not eaten a full meal in the past two years, her hair was thin and yellow and skinny, so she almost fell to the ground.

"The little hairy girl was born well, if the main family is here, maybe she will be able to come out, it's a pity. As he spoke, he laughed, lifted his feet, saw that the wine cup was clean, and there was not even a drop of residual wine, and he chewed twice in his mouth, and went to sleep in his house.

Shi Gui put away all the dishes and plates, and heard the snoring in Chen Niangzi's house like thunder, and Yinliu locked the room again, she couldn't get in, and she didn't want to enter that room, so she simply sat on the table and hugged her knees.

There is only a waning moon and a few stars in the sky, and she is wearing an old jacket, which was cut a few years ago when the year was good, and she has worn it for three winters and springs, and the cuffs and necklines have long been raw, and she is tightly pressed at this time, which will be able to block the cold wind at night.

I came to this place inexplicably, thinking that she was living in the village for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect that after a drought and locusts, she didn't even have a free body.

When I arrived in a small town, I knew how hard life was in the countryside, there were only bits and pieces left in the previous life, and she had to live well in this life, and her brain was not alive, she had learned to pick silkworms, thinking that she could save a loom, send Xizi to study, and provide for the elderly of Qiu Niang and his wife.

How do you know that the silkworms are stiff and not cocooned in the spring, followed by a big drought, and then followed by locusts, the family will collapse like this, but life is hope, and you can find a way to live your life back.

Shi Gui was born to cry less, at the moment she raised her head, wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, helpless, but she had to do it, she knew that her worth was five taels of silver, and she had to sell more after turning a hand, and a girl like Apricot who was thirty taels was born well because she could order tea, and asked someone to buy it as a concubine, reaching out and touching her cheeks, as long as she saved this money, she could redeem herself.

Like the Liu family, go to the town, open a small shop to do business, Xizi can still study, it is much safer than watching the sky to eat, Shi Gui made up his mind, rubbed his hands and took a hot breath, and went to Chen Niangzi's house to sleep on the floor.

The next morning, Shi Gui got up and removed the quilt, I don't know how many people have covered the quilt, the sides are oily, she is small and thin, it is easy to hammer clean, but she can't wring it dry, and it drip water on the bamboo pole.

Mrs. Chen was greedy for a cup yesterday, she got up early and saw that the quilt was washed and dried, and there was millet porridge and stall cakes on the table.

Shi Gui just didn't see it, cleaned himself up, even washed the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and followed Chen Niangzi out, when he came, he was scared, he didn't look at it much, and when he bought soup, he only walked to the mouth of the alley.

The countryside is so bitter, but it's different here, Shi Gui has never seen it, just think it's prosperous, but I still hear people sigh, this drought even eats less, the price of hemp oil is expensive, and there are few tea mixed noodles, and there is still noodles to eat when I say this.

Mrs. Chen taught her the rules while walking, nothing more than to make her eyes brighter and her heart brighter, and she rushed to do what she could do, Shi Gui nodded again and again when she listened, and begged Mrs. Chen to bring a letter for her when she went to Lanxi Village next time.

The villa of the summer is built in the mountains, took the boat, traveled the 29 waterway, and walked a mountain road, Shi Gui often runs the ridge of the land, Chen Niangzi is also used to walking the road, the foot steps are fast, go around the bamboo forest and then go forward is the Song family's pine and bamboo house.

It is said that it is a fine house, but it is a big house, and it was originally intended to be small and exquisite, but there are many people in the family, everyone must have a courtyard and a house, and there are people waiting for them, and the more they build, the bamboo forest behind them is half dug up, and only a thatched house is left in it, which is considered a fine house for the old lady to live in.

There is no main house, the door is lazy, Chen Niangzi patted the door, and it took a while to respond, and she did not lead the way, and asked her to go in, Shi Gui no longer expected it to be such a big house, and went in from the corner door to go around several corridors, and then arrived at the kitchen.

This house is prepared for many people to live, the yard is big, the kitchen is also big, the yard is surrounded by cages to raise chickens, only one of the three stoves is lit on fire, Mrs. Chen called Sister Zheng, and a little girl came out of it, looking at her teens, she called Chen's mother first, followed by a glance at Shi Gui, smiled on her face, and took a plate of sesame sugar oranges out.

When the two of them were talking, the girl made tea, Shi Gui hurriedly gave her a hand, looked at it for a while and knew what she wanted, handed the firewood and fan, and asked the girl softly what her name was, Shi Gui was attentive, and she also laughed: "My name is Grape." ”

Shi Gui called her Sister Grape, and Mrs. Chen revealed her words all the way, if Mrs. Zheng didn't want her, the next place to go, she would not be so leisurely, this garden has less money and more money, she naturally wants to stay.

Mrs. Zheng looked at her and frowned: "It's not any bigger?"
