Chapter 173: In the Mountains (Five Watches)
When the affairs of the Lin family were in a uproar, Lin Xi's carriage went out of the city, and she held a book in one hand and pastries in the other, eating naturally and reading very casually. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Cherry looked at a few big words on the book cover, and there was an urge to cry in her heart, she was a good maid, but the young lady was bent on being crooked, what could she do?
"Mandarin Duck Dream Scholar is Love", the blue book cover is dotted with black words, and a few small flowers are dotted, this is clearly the kind of book that swingers like to read, how did her young lady get it!
How did Cherry know that Zhou Yixuan's friend Dong Gongzi did a good job, and felt that it was important to have a good relationship with his future strong sister-in-law. I want her to know that as a woman, she should be gentle, generous, and broad-minded, so I sent these little storybooks to Lin Xi, or in the name of Zhou Yixuan!
Lin Xi sighed while looking at it, he didn't understand, this ancient time was too good for men. Regardless of whether you steal food or not, whether you are cheating or not, as long as you are rich and good-looking, the big girl who is like a flower and jade in the water is desperate to follow you, whether it is a wife or a concubine, I don't dislike your flowers, I hope you can come and see her when you are free.
This is a man who writes the book, and I think it's too beautiful. A room of wives and concubines, not to mention whether they can afford it, is also sad to be jealous every day. Besides, this round sleeping system, big fish and big meat also have times when they are tired of eating crooked, eat every day, and worry about whether their body is good or not.
"Boring. Lin Xi threw the book behind him and picked up another one, "What Can You Meet on the Way to the Exam", which seems to be a suspenseful reasoning, maybe better.
Cherry is once again deeply glad that the sisters around her have just begun to read and write, and they don't know much, otherwise it would be terrible to use them as reference books with their current studious attitude.
"Are these books really sent by Zhou Yixuan?" Lin Xi couldn't help but ask.
"That's what the porter said. "Cherry is very curious, what does Zhou Gongzi want to do, don't you want to live in the future?
Lin Xi was speechless, the ancient little girl used this standard to find a partner, what a big pit it must be.
"You find a box and put it in, and remember to send it back to Zhou Yixuan when you go back. By the way, don't forget to thank them. Just write, a gentleman doesn't take the favor of others!"
Although Lin Xi couldn't look at these books, it was estimated that this was Zhou Yixuan's treasure, so he didn't throw them away, thinking about sending them back to him. I didn't see that, that Zhou fox, he actually liked this mouthful, cut it, people can't look good.
Zhou Yixuan still doesn't know what kind of pit the top ten good classmates dug for him, and how miserable it will be the next time they meet.
The carriage walked for two hours before it slowly stopped, and Lin Xi felt once again that it was necessary for him to learn to ride a horse, and the people in this carriage had a sore bone!
"Here it is. Miss. The coachman shouted, very respectful, and Lin Xi looked at the surrounding green mountains and green waters, and felt particularly relaxed, although he was a little poor, but fortunately, the scenery was good.
This is a small village, because the village is at the foot of the mountain, the number of fertile fields is not much, therefore, the people in the village are not too rich, those who have the ability to go to the city to work to make money, and those who have no ability to guard this acre and three points of land, earn some food. That's it, just barely able to eat a full meal.
Lin Xi's car came in, and it caused a sensation in the whole village in an instant, and the men, women, and children in the village all ran out, wanting to see what kind of guests from the rich and noble family was. Even the sixty-year-old village chief also helped people out, and looked at the forest on the horse, and his attitude became more respectful.
"This young lady, I don't know what you are doing today?" asked the village chief.
"Village chief, I'll ask you about a person named Lu Dazhu, and we have something to do with him. Lin Xi said with a smile, his attitude was excellent, and the people around him admired Lin Xi's good looks, good spirit, and good manners.
"Lu Dazhu, their family is not in the village, but in the mountains. It's an old house in the village, and it seems that there is no one in the village lately. The old village chief said this and glanced up at Lin Xi.
"Oh, then I don't know if you can ask someone to show us the way?" Lin Xi asked again.
"I'll come! I'll show the way. "It was a simple peasant woman who spoke to show the way for the young lady, and it was not suitable for a big man, so this woman volunteered to come.
"I, I'll go too!" said the other woman.
"Thank you, two aunts. Lin Xi said very affectionately.
Lin Xi asked the guards to look at the car, and the rest of the maids followed into the mountain, along the way, the two women were very good at chatting, and while walking, they introduced the situation of Lu Dazhu's family to almost the same.
Lu Dazhu has a total of two brothers, and he has been dependent on his younger brother since he was a child, because of his weak family background, he married a daughter-in-law when he was the eldest child. And that brother Lu Erzhu is still alone.
Since the two brothers did not have much land in the village, they returned to farm in the spring, and returned to the mountains in the summer to hunt some game in exchange for some money, hoping that the days would be better and better. There are two children in the family, and life is a little hard.
And with them were a few poor families in the village, who built houses on the hill and settled down, and everyone could be regarded as having a care.
Lin Xi thought about it, it should be the same people who took Lu Dazhu to seek medical treatment last time. Now it seems that the relationship between several people is really good.
When Lin Xi arrived, Nalu Dazhu's daughter-in-law Xing was washing clothes, and when she saw Lin Xi, she thought she was dazzled, and after looking closely, she was sure that it was really Lin Xi.
"Miss, why did you get here?"
Xing asked, hurriedly let Lin Xi inside, and Cherry also took out five taels of broken silver as a reward for leading the way this time. But the two women said that they didn't want anything, they just led the way, how could they still ask for money!
Seeing that the two of them said no, Cherry took the initiative and gave the two boxes of snacks to the two people, one for each person, and the two women left happily.
"Miss, this room is simple, and you will sit down. Xing Shi just wiped the bench with his clothes before letting Lin Xi sit down, and Lin Xi looked at this family, it was indeed not rich.
This house can't be considered a house, it just hasn't collapsed, and there is nothing on the surrounding walls, and the earth and stones are exposed. Looking at the tables and chairs in this room, all of them are incomplete, you can know how the life of the family is.
"Miss, Lu Dazhu, thank you for saving your life!" Lu Dazhu walked out on crutches and knelt down in front of Lin Xi. Although he is now able to move freely, he still uses crutches on weekdays, just in case.
"Hurry up, you don't have to. Lin Xi shook his head and asked Lu Dazhu to be helped up. In addition to visiting them today, she still has important things to discuss with them.
That's all for today, good night everyone. ^_^ (To be continued.) )
