Knowing that she could follow her cousin Mo Xiaohe's new home, Li Xiu cheered, although it was to deliver a letter, but it was not good to come to the door empty-handed, she bought a basket of apples and sweet plums along the way, put them in a bamboo basket, and got into the carriage.

Li He told the guys in the shop, if the sun has set, he hasn't come back, he doesn't have to wait for him, close, lock the door panel, he brought the key with him, and after the instructions, he and Feng Dachun drove the carriage to Mojia Village.

"Big brother, you don't know, what the woman said is better than singing, and I don't know what the hell I thought, I was almost deceived, she said that she looked very distressed."

Li Xiu poured a cup of tea for his eldest brother Li He and Feng Dachun, and was angry in his heart, Mo Daya let those two ill-intentioned people take care of her, she can't be killed again, right?

"Not really, on the contrary, they have to do their best to mend the relationship."

Li He shook his head, it seems that Li Er and the old lady have figured it out, coaxed people, and may have benefits in the future, even if she doesn't, she can do work alone, she doesn't need much rations, and there is a large dowry, they will not suffer no matter what.

From the town to the village, Li He found a familiar family to park the carriage, and according to the route drawn on the map, he took Li Xiu and Feng Dachun into the mountain.

After Feng Dachun was released from prison, he once relied on the mountains behind his home to live, went into the mountains to hunt, cut wood, and after entering the mountains, he quickly identified the direction, and he saw that Li He had difficulty finding map markers, so he took the initiative to help.

Li Xiu made a stick with a tree branch, wiped her sweat, just passed by a cemetery, startled her, especially this kind of lonely grave in the mountains, buried are minors or people who have no clan to rely on, the grave is not filled in the soil, after a long time, it has been washed by the rain, and slowly becomes a small dirt bag, overgrown with weeds next to it, some are low, and even expose the top of the black coffin.

Who dares to go into the mountains at night? I heard that lonely ghosts and wild ghosts wander, most like to scare people, now it is the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the folk ghost month, no wonder the sun is so vigorous, but there is no temperature in the mountains.

"How far is it?"

After walking for about half an hour, Li Xiu was out of breath, only the water in the bamboo tube was with her, and she had already drunk the bottom, she had not done chores for more than half a year, she was busy embroidering all day long, her physical strength was not as good as before, and she was so tired that her waist and legs were sore.

"There's still a quarter of an hour, and it's not far ahead."

Having already completed three-quarters of the way, Feng Dachun admired Gu Zheng even more, living in the mountains, there was a wooden house, a clear stream, eating and drinking, it was completely a state of escape.

Seeing that it was close to noon, Mo Xiaohe yawned, when she came back last night, the couple only ate something hastily, she was in a bad mood, Gu Zheng coaxed her for a whole night, and the couple discussed countermeasures, they must take revenge, and never give up if they don't send the Li family's mother and son to prison.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

There was a knock on the door in the courtyard, Mo Xiaohe's spirit was shocked, it must be her cousin who came to deliver the letter, otherwise except for the eldest brother Mo Huaiyuan, who was far away in Kyoto, others would definitely not be able to find here, she sat up from the small side and ran to open the door excitedly.

"Xiaohe, I'm here, hurry up, pour me a glass of water!"

Li Xiu squeezed into the door first, sat on the bench under the shade of the trees in the courtyard, and looked at the small courtyard with a curious face, the clusters of wild flowers at the door, the courtyard was clean and tidy, the wooden house exuded the fragrance of wood, and the pointed top was like a paradise, quiet and comfortable.

"I've boiled canned fruit, so you can eat a bowl of it."

I didn't expect to send a letter, there were three people at first, Mo Xiaohe hurriedly greeted people and took them to visit the layout of the wooden house.

"I've been to big families before, and it's not so good."

The wooden house is simply furnished, a thin porcelain vase with a few colors of dried wildflowers, which can also decorate the room, they sit on tatami mats, cross-legged tea and look at the grass and trees outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and their hearts are open.

"It's noon, don't leave at night, stay, let's go to the front yard to roast chicken to eat."

There are a few snacks bought yesterday at home, put them in the tray, Mo Xiaohe made another pot of tea, it is rare to come here, go down the mountain before dark, too rushed, there are several empty rooms at home, it is also convenient, she warmly stayed, "Cousin, you and Da Chun will stay and accompany my husband to drink." ”

"My brother-in-law is not at home, is he hunting?"

Li He nodded, thinking that this would be fine, the shops in the town were all arranged, and he would stay overnight at night and go down the mountain tomorrow morning.

"Well, he is afraid that I will get on fire, and he will roast me chicken to eat at night, so you have a good mouth, and you came at the right time."

Mo Xiaohe hooked the corners of her lips proudly, there were still a few sets of thin quilts at home, taking advantage of the sun, she quickly took them out to dry, Li Xiu rested for a while, and also went to help.

I thought that it must be deserted and desolate enough in the mountains, but Li Xiu only knew how luxurious and enjoyable his cousin's days were when he entered the door, such as cooking the fruit, adding rock sugar, adding black plum to the tea, and eating roast chicken if he was in a bad mood, oh my God, I couldn't think about it.

There is a swing in the corner of the courtyard, and the handrails on both sides are planted with vines, blooming small purple flowers, if you sit on the swing at night, blowing the cool breeze, and watching the moon and stars, you must feel quite comfortable.

"Anyway, why is there news so soon, the uncle and the aunt are back?"

Plum green tea is refreshing, and there is some sweet and sour taste in it, the three of them drank two pots, Mo Xiaohe saw that the taste of green tea was getting weaker and weaker, so she changed a pot, she made an appointment with Gu Zheng, and waited for him to come back at sunset.

"You're wrong this time."

Li Xiu and Li He's brothers and sisters told what happened as it was, and Li Er's mother and son were courteous and changed their attitudes, and they were taking care of Mo Daya, saying that everything was a misunderstanding, and they would immediately go to the yamen to explain the reason.

"Really good at playing."

Mo Xiaohe knew that Li Er's mother and son didn't have much success at all, so they could only play some clever tricks, and the cousin was going to make a plan, and she wanted to toss them visually, and then find evidence and send people to prison quietly.

In this way, it is better than putting things on the bright side, and they will not talk nonsense, they should be able to keep the reputation of the Mo family for the time being, and not embarrass the clan.

"Cousin, you guys can rest first, and my cousin and I will go cook."

Mo Xiaohe looked at the sky, estimated that there was more than an hour of sunset, she pulled Li Xiu to the backyard, ready to fish from the pool, there were two fish in it, the big one weighed about four or five catties, and it could make a big pot of boiled fish.

"Xiaohe, when did you learn to cook?"

Li Xiu was puzzled, seeing that her cousin suddenly looked very virtuous, could it be that after getting married, she suddenly changed her temperament? I remember eating the fried leeks she made before, and the heat was too big, and the leeks were fried until they were yellow and wilted.

"From home to Northland Licheng, and then to Kyoto, plus the way back, there are many times to eat and sleep, so I have to learn a few hands."

The original owner of the body is not as good as herself, it is not a job at all, born in a farmer's family, she was raised like a daughter, thanks to Aunt Feng on the way back to cover, what she will do, pushed on others, did not arouse suspicion at all.

"Cousin, you can help pick the vegetables, this is the skin jelly I boiled last night, just under the wine, you can eat a piece and taste it."

There is not only meat skin, but also minced meat, Mo Xiaohe cut a strip for Li Xiu, to be tasted, Li Xiu was full of praise, now is the busy time of farming, the village is exquisite, and there is no leisure and elegance to eat, every household is fooled every day.

In the past, I heard that Mo Xiaohe was going to live in the mountains, and the whole family was against it, so I was afraid that she would not be able to live like that, Li Xiu thought, when she went home, she must tell her father and mother, if she has the opportunity, she will come and see it, but it is more moisturizing than the gods.

"Xiaohe, what's the origin of that Feng Dachun, my brother mentioned a few words, I think it's not easy for him to leave his hometown alone."

The two sisters worked together, and soon cut the vegetables and put them on the plate, and then they were off the pot, Mo Xiaohe washed some fruit, and the two sat in the stove room and ate and chatted.

"You don't have a crush on him, do you?"

Feng Dachun's father and mother are gone, there is only one sister, that is, Aunt Jiang, who is in Luzhou, thousands of miles away, he came to Dawu, also to see the world and beg for a living, so he came a few days later, rented a house, and made a living by selling firewood.

"I think he has a good temper."

Li Xiutan is frank, even if she likes it, it is useless, her father and mother will not marry her to a foreigner, and she has no foundation, for fear that she will be wronged. She was a little confused and didn't know what kind of person she would marry, but Mo Daya's mother-in-law caused her a big shadow in her heart.

"Cousin Xiu, you can't think like that, that old pious woman wasn't like this before."

The reason why it has intensified is because Mo Daya has no support from her mother's family, and the clansmen are not there, she herself has done something that crosses the line, and she is despised by her in-laws when she enters the door, and she is inferior.

"After getting married, you must firmly grasp the financial power of the family."

Mo Xiaohe is half a person who has come over, and she muttered a few words, and the rest she is also groping. If my cousin really likes Feng Dachun, it's not impossible, in addition to not having a house, I can ensure that I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and my cousin also has his own skills to supplement the family.

The sun begins to turn west, the heat subsides, the gate is opened, standing at the door, the fragrance of the grass and trees in the mountains is getting stronger and stronger, there is an open land not far away, the clear stream of the mountain stream, the cheerful call of the birds, makes people unconsciously happy.

Gu Zheng carried the basket on his back, the setting sun gilded a layer of fiery red on his body, he walked briskly in the direction of home, thinking that there were people waiting at home, his steps were faster.

In the distance, Li He and Feng Dachun saw a tall figure passing through the grass, and they hurriedly waved their hands.

"You're here? Come in the door, let's have a few drinks. ”

Gu Zheng patted Feng Dachun's shoulder with his big hand, and stepped into the small courtyard quickly, he shot several pheasants, picked wild vegetables and a few common medicinal herbs, and harvested a lot.

"Husband, the water is already hot, you can wash it first."

Mo Xiaohe served jelly skin, peanuts, cold wild vegetables, cucumbers as cold dishes, and opened a jar of wine storage at home, or Gu Zheng used to be a dart master, and bought it when he was out of stock, after opening, the wine was fragrant, Li He couldn't stop sniffing, and praised it as a good wine.

"The pig's trotters haven't been eaten yet, they've been put on ice in a waterhole, and they're roasted at night."

Mo Xiaohe made boiled fish neatly, and the smell of chili peppers choked people, making Li Xiu sneeze uncontrollably, and smoked so much that tears flowed out.

"Actually, it's not particularly spicy, the fish fillet is browned, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, it's very fragrant, this dish is too oil-intensive, if I don't entertain you, I won't do it."

This is the truth, because she has just eaten it, and this time it is also to show her face and change the public's impression of her, she is not a delicate little lady, but a good wife with excellent craftsmanship. His own family, especially his cousin Li He, looked at Gu Zheng's eyes full of sympathy, as if marrying her was a very disadvantaged thing, isn't this a demolition?

"There's fish, there's meat and vegetables, it's too expensive."

Li Xiu started to do it, the dishes made by Mo Xiaohe were not a common practice for the people of Dawu, she couldn't help, so she could only watch from the sidelines.

"What's the cost, the meat is also beaten in the mountains, and the food is still sent by my cousin, you go over the mountains and mountains, it's not easy to come once, you must be entertained with good wine and good food."

Mo Xiaohe stirred up twice, talked to Li Xiu from time to time, and the old pious woman went to the yamen to explain, the best thing is to act, just act, see who has good acting skills, she will go down the mountain tomorrow, go to see her uncle, grandfather and grandmother first, come back for a few days, and never show up again, she can't say it.

"My brother said that you have bought a yard in the town, you have to settle down, and take the family to the town for a few days."

Li Xiu wiped her hands, the blacksmith shop in the town was too noisy, the second elder went there once, and went home without eating, she wanted to make a lot of money in the future, build a new house for the family, and buy a small courtyard in the town, so that her father and grandparents don't have to work so hard.

You can't rely on others for a lifetime, and her cousin Mo Xiaohe also gave her valuable jewelry, which she wrapped up and was reluctant to wear, for fear of losing it, it would hurt to death.
