CHAPTER XLIV
When Shi Jinyu, the rich and handsome, left, Shao Yunhua and the others immediately said goodbye, it was really a farewell, Emma, this plague god is gone, he has a good-looking face, this person is really annoying.
In fact, Shi Jinyu also breathed a sigh of relief, the atmosphere was too weird, and it was better to be in the capital. Hurry back to the capital along the way, and immediately go to face the saint.
"What's going on over there?" Her Majesty the Empress has a very good impression of Shi Jinyu, so she is very pleasant.
"Everything is orderly and very stable." Although the atmosphere there was strange, Shi Jinyu still admitted Shao Yunhua's ability, and the three thousand people, whether they were farming, breeding or what they did, were very disciplined, which impressed him.
"How's the house going?"
"When the minister came back, there were still some tails left, and now that these days have passed, he must have been able to live in people." Speaking of this, Shi Jinyu is a little pity, because the house in Yundi is damp, and there are not many large bricks and stones (the price of the empress only dropped after the gunpowder was pounded out), so this side is all bamboo buildings, very local characteristics, cool and beautiful, and Shi Jinyu, an elegant person, likes it quite a lot, but unfortunately I didn't live there, it's a pity!
"That's good, some time ago, the grandson of the Shao family came to the book, saying that he was attacked by wild boars, and now that the house has been built, there can always be more guarantees in safety."
"What His Majesty said is extremely true."
While speaking, Her Majesty the Empress looked at the household registration book made by Shi Jinyu, and when she saw the total behind her, her eyes narrowed, why are there fifty-one people missing? Therefore, he immediately asked: "Why is there less than 51 people in the household register?" But for what reason? ”
"Exactly." Shi Jinyu was waiting for this sentence, and he felt that it should be the empress's decree to standardize this matter: "The fifty-one little ladies are ready to marry the locals and multiply, so they are registered in her husband's family." ”
"I seem to remember that there were fifty-six people who got married? What about the five? ”
"Returning to His Majesty, Shao Shisun thought that special circumstances were treated specially, and asked the wishes of the little lady and her husband, and the husbands of these five people were willing to open another household with the little lady." At this time, I saw Shi Jinyu's skills, what he said was very flattering, his own views were word-for-word, and it was all Shao Yunhua who was in charge, which seemed to be explaining things, but in fact, he sued Shao Yunhua for being arbitrary. He is the official in charge of household registration. However, people did not complain openly, and the Empress was angry, which means that Her Majesty has other ideas about this matter, such as the wife following her husband, which is justified, but if the Empress Majesty does not say anything, it is a tacit acquiescence, and she has to re-examine this matter.
"So good, special circumstances must be treated specially." Her Majesty the Empress gave Shi Jinyu such a sentence.
Shi Jinyu instantly understood that Shao Shisun was a proper Jane in the emperor's heart, alas!
Shi Jinyu over there tested the empress's meaning, and Shao Yunhua here looked at the house finally completed, with a big smile on her face.
Shao Yunhua climbed up and looked at it, very happy, there is a mansion in the flat land, it is a large courtyard of Wujin, the front office, and the back is the residence of these managers, all of which are small bamboo buildings, very spacious and bright, and everyone's house size and pattern are similar. Be simple and practical, as for the things inside, they are all arranged in their own way.
As for the houses of other little ladies, I have to say that this time the welfare treatment given by Her Majesty the Empress is very high, one person and one small building, goose wings are lined up in the five houses, such a small building is in the clouds, the cost is at least thirty taels of silver, and the cost of an ordinary person is only five taels of silver a year, which shows that the small building is really good.
Immediately, Shao Yunhua began to organize people to draw lots, and no one had to pick a place to draw lots, including the residences of their managers, which were also decided by lottery.
"Yunhua, what should those little ladies do when they get married?" Mei Xin, as the big housekeeper, naturally has to ask about everything.
"The settling-in allowance set by the Supreme for me is twenty-five taels per person, and it cost twenty-four taels and three dollars to build a house, as for those who marry, since they have entered the husband's household registration, they must live together, and they also have to pay for wine, so they will fold the silver, and each person's dowry will be increased by twenty taels." Shao Yunhua naturally would not be greedy for this silver.
"It's fine." Everyone has no opinion, these hundreds of taels of silver can make ordinary people blush, and they really look down on them.
Li Sanniang and the others began to feel quite uncomfortable when they heard that there was no house, and her husband was even more displeased, but he didn't expect the peak to turn around, and he added an extra twenty taels of dowry, which was really happy from the sky, Li Sanniang's back suddenly straightened, and the dowry of forty taels was something that I couldn't even dream of.
The house was ready, the tent was removed, and the wedding over there was also held, originally Li Sanniang also invited Shao Yunhua to be a witness, Shao Yunhua was a little moved, but Shi Jinyu said: "She is not the last." "In other words, there is the next Zhao Sanniang, Sun Sanniang, and Zhou Sanniang, can you still go to each other? These little ladies are all about the same age, and they will be more concentrated when they get married, three thousand people, what are you going to do?
Shao Yunhua got a point, and suddenly suddenly, only then did he clearly refuse, except for Yan Fang, who was in charge of Li Sanniang, the other managers did not move, and everyone else also handled it like this.
After their marriage, Shao Yunhua and their family finally ushered in the first bumper harvest, and the sweet potatoes planted in the reclaimed fields were finally able to be harvested.
Shao Yunhua personally went to the field to harvest with everyone, the climate in this place is good, the rain is enough and it will not be waterlogged, but the field is not fertile enough, and the planting methods of the little ladies are not good enough, so the yield is not very high, but it can't stand the high yield of these two things, so the results are also very amazing.
For this reason, Shao Yunhua and they also specially prepared a celebration party, in fact, it is nothing, whether it is potatoes or sweet potatoes, they can be roasted and eaten, so they simply use fresh sweet potatoes and potatoes to bake and eat, burn and eat, and also held a prize competition, in addition to the way to eat now, everyone can invent their own unique way to eat, and the best one will get the lottery. It's not valuables, it's just some rouge gouache or something, just a good idea.
Aunt Zhao likes to sleep, but also likes to eat, they used to have a lot of family at home, she is the boss, there is a younger brother next to her, there is a son who is a top door, the daughter is naturally free-range, the population is large, and she can't eat, so she is hungry all the year round, and now she is here to eat enough, sleep warmly, and the nature of the big foodie in her bones is revealed.
The chili peppers promoted by Her Majesty the Empress won her love, so she wondered if she could get potatoes and chili peppers together, not to mention, in the end, she really came out and made sour and hot shredded potatoes to eat.
Shao Yunhua fell in love with the taste after taking a bite and was full of praise for it.
"This can be eaten as a dish." Shui Dai took a bite, and her eyes lit up.
"Exactly, I didn't expect this to be so delicious." Even Mei Xin loves it very much.
In addition to Aunt Zhao's cold and sour and hot shredded potatoes, there are also mashed potatoes and braised potatoes...... and so on, of course, if there is food, dark cuisine is indispensable, Shao Yunhua's own sauce potatoes were unanimously rated as a waste of food.
Li Sanniang looked at the laughter and joy of the people around her, the smile on her face was a little reluctant, her husband always looked for opportunities to talk to Yan Fang, she wouldn't be able to see it? It's infuriating.
"Go add some shredded potatoes and use this bowl." Li Sanniang was annoyed, and Sun Zhu handed his bowl to Li Sanniang.
Li Sanniang took it, and gave Sun Zhu a lot of cold and spicy potato shreds made by Aunt Zhao, seeing Wang Xiu'er next to her smiling and just eating by herself, and then looking at He Xiu's joy over there, she couldn't help but scold: "This Shuangxiu is not afraid of eating bad stomachs." Thinking so, my heart is still a little sour, I have to serve my husband, but they are at ease.
added the things that Sun Zhu wanted, and when he turned around, he saw that Sun Zhu was gone, and he was even more depressed, where did he go? Just because it was a little dark and she couldn't find anyone, Sun Zhu's hearty laughter came from there, that laughter was one of her favorite things about Sun Zhu, every time she heard this laughter, Li Sanniang would be in a good mood, very good, and think she was very sweet, but this time, her heart tightened.
For no other reason, Sun Zhu's smile was not directed at her, but at his leader Yan Fang, suppressing the sourness in his heart, Li Sanniang walked up to the front and said in a low voice: "Husband, Sheng is here." ”
Sun Zhu didn't even look at Li Sanniang, he took the bowl back directly, and wanted to hand it to Yan Fang, but he seemed to feel rude again, his white skin was full of redness, and he handed it to the maid Zhu'er beside Yan Fang, and then said: "Little lady Yan try it, this is very appetizing." ”
"Thank you." Yan Fang's face was faint, she couldn't say anything about Sun Zhu, she just didn't like him, there was no reason.
Li Sanniang almost cried when she saw Sun Zhu's appearance, she was quite pampered at home, her parents were reluctant to scold, and they were not allowed to do a little heavy work, but she didn't expect it to be like this now.
"You husband and wife use it slowly, I'll go over there to discuss some things with Shao Shisun."
"Okay." Sun Zhu wanted to stay, but he was afraid of Shao Yunhua, so he had to say gracefully: "Please." ”
Yan Fang left, Sun Zhu saw Li Sanniang's bitter gourd face, smiled, looked at no one around, and scratched Li Sanniang's nose: "Why are you unhappy?" ”
"You still ask?" Seeing that Sun Zhu was taking care of himself, Li Sanniang's voice was full of tears.
"Well, who messed with you?"
"That's you." Hearing Sun Zhu say this, Li Sanniang was even more aggrieved: "Why do you always talk to Yan Fang, men and women don't kiss." ”
"Fool." Sun Zhu sighed: "I'm not doing this for you?" ”
"For me?" Li Sanniang's face was full of disbelief.
"Yes, Little Lady Yan is your leader, if you have a good relationship with her, you will be easier in the future, how can I be willing to let you suffer?"
In just one sentence, Li Sanniang burst into tears and laughed, happy everywhere.
Seeing Li Sanniang's face, Sun Zhu took her to continue to laugh with everyone.
In the end, Mrs. Zhao's shredded potatoes won by an overwhelming margin, not only because they were delicious, but also because they were simple and easy to make and low cost, of course, low cost was the most real; As for the worst award, it was won by Shao Yunhua without suspense at all.
