Chapter Eighty-Six: There are so many people who like me
"Young Master Shen taught you how to make rice cakes?" Sun Xiujin's eyes lit up when she heard this, her daughter is fifteen years old this year, and she is worried about finding a good home for her daughter, but she can't find a suitable one.
Sun Xiujin nodded with red ears, "Mother!" Let's buy some glutinous rice and try it too! If you can't fight...... Let's go ask Young Master Shen again! Tingyu and I ate theirs, and we have to ask for it again. ”
Miao looked at her and nodded with a smile, "It doesn't cost much to buy glutinous rice, I'll ask to buy some glutinous rice, you come and see, see what to do!" ”
When Sun Li was returning from a walk in the field, the family was discussing the matter of making rice cakes. As soon as he heard what Shen Songming handed over to Sun Xiujin, his eyes flashed. That Shen Songming is the son of the prefect of Jinan, and he is famous. Just looking at his ten-** appearance, it is estimated that he has already become a parent. Looking at the old girl, Sun Li was frowning.
Shen Songming was also howling with Pei Qin, "I haven't tasted it, and it's gone in a blink of an eye!" Tomorrow will play more! ”
"Zhu Bajie eats ginseng fruit!?" Pei Qin looked at him like that, "Anyway, there is rice at home, you want to eat it yourself!" ”
Shen Songming was highly motivated, and the next day he pulled his guards to continue beating rice cakes.
Sun Xiujin and Sun Tingyu came to invite Shen Songming to go over to see their family beating rice cakes, and when they saw that they were setting up a stall to make rice cakes, they were stunned, "Young Master Shen still wants to eat, my family fights a lot, but I don't know what it looks like, Young Master Shen might as well go to my house and help us take a look!" ”
Shen Songming has been in love in his last life and in his twenties and thirties in this life, but he has also been in love, looking at Sun Xiu's earnest gaze, he turned his head and asked Pei Qian, "Will you watch it?" ”
Pei Qian nodded inexplicably.
"That's good! You can go with them and help me point them out! Shen Songming directly waved his finger at her.
Pei Qian was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "Okay! ”
Sun Xiujin's expression was a little unbearable, "Pei Qian, she only passed her eyes once yesterday, and she is still a little baby...... Can Young Master Shen help me over and give me some advice? If it breaks, all the rice you bought will be wasted! ”
"I will! I'm going to help you! Pei Qian came out and said.
"You just started yesterday, what if you break it?" Sun Tingyu secretly confessed to her.
Pei Qian sneered, "If you break it, we will compensate you for the glutinous rice!" But if you call Brother Songming over, he can't help, it's my eldest sister who can make rice cakes! ”
"It's... Young Master Shen taught us yesterday! Sun Xiujin said, looking at Shen Songming with a pair of beautiful eyes.
"If you could, go check it out!" Pei Qin said Shen Songming.
Pei Qian's face turned black with anger, and the eldest sister always scolded others for not having a brain, can't she see that these two people are not well-intentioned!?
Shen Songming said directly, "I won't!" "He came here to reunite with her relatives, not to flirt with her sister.
Seeing that he could still say one, two, three, four, five yesterday, and today he will say no if he invites him over, Sun Xiujin was a little embarrassed in his heart, and his face was ugly.
Pei Qian said with a smile, "Brother Songming said that it was okay, but if you want to say and do, you are not as strong as me!" I'll go with you and have a look! ”
Sun Xiujin had no choice but to nod and go down the steps, but his heart was extremely uncomfortable.
It seems that the person is Pei Qian, not Shen Songming, and the Miao family is also relaxed all of a sudden, and there is no such high interest.
The rice cakes at home were beaten, Pei Qian also came over, and saw that it was Sun Xiujin's sister-in-law and Miao's who were busy working, and it was Sun Lizheng and her eldest brother who were beating rice cakes, saying that the family had been playing cakes for many years this time, and they could eat it for a few days, so they came back.
Pei Qin didn't want to beat rice cakes anymore, so Shen Songming had a full meal, "If you want to eat again, you can fight it yourself!" The old lady is gone! It's just a heavy body job, and it's not delicious! It's better than a bowl of hot and sour noodles! ”
"Anyway, I've learned it, I'll go back and let people fight! I've sent you some! This thing can be left dry for a long time! Shen Songming said.
Pei Qin didn't care about him and asked him when he would leave. If he stays any longer, I don't know what he's going to toss!
"I'll just stay a few more days, why rush me!?" Shen Songming complained dissatisfiedly, "You haven't told me about the mechanical watch again, what if there is something you don't understand when you find someone to do it!?" ”
Pei Qin came up, raised his leg and kicked him in the ass, "Your sister! If you talk about it like that, you won't understand it!? ”
Shen Songming snorted, "Understood!" Got it! If you say I understand, I understand! ”
Pei Qin kicked him again before stopping, "Get out of here as soon as possible!" Don't ink here! ”
Shen Songming only dared to express his strong dissatisfaction with his eyes, saying that he would leave in two more days to see if he could wait for soy sauce.
Pei Qin wanted to kick him again, and on the last day, he made a big table full of what he wanted to eat.
Sun Xiujin came over to deliver rice cakes again, and was shocked to see a table full of all kinds of food.
"I said that I would leave tomorrow, and I wouldn't let me eat in two days!" Shen Songming looked aggrieved and insulted, holding chopsticks, and he couldn't eat enough to eat every bite.
"Young Master Shen will leave tomorrow!?" Sun Xiujin was shocked.
Shen Songming hummed.
"Back... Jinanfu? Sun Xiujin only felt cold in his heart.
"Back to Beijing!" Shen Songming ate a few more chopsticks angrily, and decided not to write to Pei Qin in the next two months, hum!
Sun Xiujin's face turned pale faintly, "Young Master Shen, is your home from the capital?" ”
Shen Songming hummed again.
Pei Qian watched Sun Xiujin leave quickly with a cold eye and pursed her lips.
Shen Songming packed two sacks of sweet potatoes with him, and threw a box to Pei Qin before leaving, "Your birthday in December, I may not be able to come, this is a birthday gift, give it to you in advance!" ”
Pei Qin caught the box.
"I'm March 3rd next year, and you should remember to prepare a birthday present for me! Ask for a courtesy! "I'm going to get in the car and leave, and I don't forget to lean out and remind me.
"Got it!" Pei Qin didn't have a good airway.
Seeing that she was not reluctant at all, Shen Songming put down the curtain of the car angrily. Ignore her for two months!
Sun Xiujin watched the carriage go away, blushed with shame, looked at Pei Qin, bit his lip and turned to leave.
When she got home, Pei Qian reached out and took the box he sent, "I'll see what it is!" ”
When the box was opened, there was a jade hairpin covered in jasper.
Pei Qian's eyes lit up, she picked it up and looked at it, and tried it on Pei Qin's head, "Eldest sister!" If you like to wear a bun, use this hairpin in the future! Jasper color, not a bright golden hairpin, can also be worn during filial piety! "Let that Sun Xiu, who is not well-intentioned, take a look!
Pei Qin doesn't care, she doesn't know how to tie her hair, and she is impatient with cumbersome hairstyles, so she just ties a bun, which is simple and light. Glancing at the jade hairpin, "The jade thing is easy to break, and it's not as good as my silver hairpin!" ”
The silver hairpin on her head was bought for her by Pei Qian during the Lantern Festival, and the fish head vegetarian silver hairpin is used to it.
"Then put it up and wear it when it's time to put it on!" Pei Qian was very satisfied with the jade hairpin sent by Shen Songming.
Feng Bo is also very satisfied with the silver step shake he bought, the girls like these, he sees that Pei Qin wears a fish-headed silver hairpin on his head all the year round, which is worn out and blackened, and it is not good-looking. This silver step shake was given to her, and she specified that she liked it.
Finally caught up with a rest day, Feng Bo came back from the county seat, carrying snacks and snacks bought in the county seat, a few strings of sugar gourds, and did not go home, he got off the car directly in Taiping Town, and went to Pei Qin's house with his things.
Pei Qin was not at home and went to the workshop.
Feng Bo had to put his things at home and go to the workshop to find them.
Pei Qin pinched a handful of sweet potato leaves and leaf stalks, walked around and came back, and happened to meet Feng Bo outside the town, "Something?" ”
Feng Bo glanced at the fish-headed hairpin on her head, and took out a new silver step, "This, I want to give it to my cousin!" ”
Seeing that he had red ears and looked embarrassed, Pei Qin was stunned, the ancients sent hairpins differently from them! looked at Feng Bo, "This is a confession?" ”
Feng Bo was said bluntly by her, his face was flushed, but he still nodded, "Cousin! I really like you and want to marry you! If you marry me, I will definitely be good to you, and our whole family will be good to you! ”
"Thank you!" Pei Qin nodded politely, took the sweet potato leaves and continued walking.
Feng Bo was stunned, "Cousin!?" Cousin! I really like you! ”
"Didn't I thank you already!?" Pei Qin looked back in surprise.
"That's... That cousin...... Will you marry me? I will wait for you to come out of the filial piety period for three years! Feng Bo said sincerely, looking at her calm expression, his heart was extremely uneasy.
Pei Qin rolled her eyes at the sky, "Just because you like me doesn't mean I have to like you, so I have to marry you!" ”
Feng Bo's face froze, "But ......"
"But what! Like me, I thank you! But if I can't like me, I have to like him? You have to marry him, right!? I can't take care of it! "In her previous life, there were so many people who called her husband, shouting to let her get wet with rain and dew, would she marry and go home!? Her mom and dad are going to freak out!
I can't take care of it...... Feng Bo thought of the possibility of being rejected, but he never expected such a refusal, holding the silver step in his hand, as if it was ridiculous. She thanked him... She couldn't take care of it......
Seeing her come back, Pei Qian hurriedly said, "Cousin Feng Bo came over and said that he was going to the workshop to find you." ”
"See!" Pei Qin answered, took the vegetable basket over, pinched off the sweet potato leaves, and peeled the leaf ridges one by one.
Seeing that both of them were staring at her, Pei Qin directly said what Feng Bo confessed.
"You don't like him, do you?" Pei Qian asked with a little worry and affirmation.
"There are so many people who like me, if I have to like them too, can I take care of me!?" Pei Qin glanced at her.
The two of them were stunned, and the corners of their mouths twitched. How did the eldest sister know that 'so many people like' her!?
However, Pei Qin's current virtue must have choked Feng Bo who confessed! Pei Qian's heart was secretly refreshed. Let you dare to be uneasy and kind!
Feng Bo felt cold and depressed in his heart, and returned home with a little lost his soul with Yinbu.
Fang Hui rushed to the market, and also knew that Pei Qin handed over the noodle restaurant to others, and was angry in his heart, and when he heard Feng Bo say that his confession was rejected, the fire in his heart burned, "The bigger the family, the more attention is paid to the right family." She is a bereaved mother and eldest daughter, with a few oil bottles, and such a reputation, she really wants to climb the high branches, what do you expect!? Even if you are lucky enough to climb up, it is just to make people small, to be pressed by the big one, to be calculated by a circle of wives and concubines, what do you expect to end well!? ”
Feng Shouxing sighed, "Liuming will be tested for fame in the future, if she is lucky and becomes an official, she will marry Liuming, and she will be an official's wife in the future." With this reason, I'm afraid I won't be able to look down on our family! "I think that Fang Laoxiu promised Pei Qin any benefits.
"The boss still married a showman, but what happened now? Even if Pei Qin is capable and her family earns money, she is already dead, and she can't enjoy it! Besides, if you stay bright and don't top notch, who knows if you will be able to pass the test! Fang Hui said angrily.
"Last time, the Sun family didn't want to talk about matchmaking, but Sun Tiezhu's brother-in-law also wanted to marry his cousin!" Feng Bo felt that if there was no Zou Xing and the Sun family, and no grandfather's family to block him, Pei Qin would definitely agree to marry him.
Fang Hui understood, and immediately scolded a few times, "No wonder I said that I asked them to help, and I still took the gift, but it was like I was messing with them!" What kind of shopkeeper wanted to ask for a kiss, but he was also rejected, fuck it! It's just their own idea that they want to secretly push us back! ”
"Cousin...... Helping Zou Xing's family talk about business, I met them in the county seat after the Double Ninth Festival. "Feng Bozhen is very decadent and gloomy, their family is still a relative, what a good thing can't be thought of in their family, he even rejected him when he asked for a kiss!
Fang Hui felt unbearable, she had never been so insulted.
But now I rushed to the door, and I didn't have an explanation, so I thought that it was almost the Winter Clothes Festival, so I endured it first.
Seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, Pei Qian pulled out all the materials at home and put them on the kang to make cotton clothes for the people at home. You have to make a jacket first, and you can wear it right away, and then make a padded jacket.
Several horses were all plain colors, Pei Qian picked a blue cotton silk, cut a jacket for Pei Qin, and decorated it with a pale yellow edge.
Pei Qian is also learning needlework, and Zou's needlework is very good, and she often teaches them when she has nothing to do. Seeing that Pei Qin is ten fingers do not stick to needlework, I hope that Pei Qian will not be able to be busy, so I will admit that I really learn needlework.
In addition to making boots from the soles of shoes, I also have to go out to buy them, and I can make my own socks and clothes.
asked Pei Qin to say that it was better to spend that time and effort to do needlework, and it would be more convenient to spend two dollars to go out and buy it. However, she doesn't know how to sew herself, and she can't teach Pei Qian and Pei Qian how to needle, and she won't even be able to sew clothes at home in the future.
The two of them did needlework at home, Pei Qin was in charge of the workshop, or Zou came to visit the door to instruct the two of them in embroidery, and she hugged Xiao Xingwang and played.
At the time of the fair, I fried sweet potato balls and sold them at a stall.
Seeing that the workshop would take a few days to complete, Pei Qin set up an oven and tinkered with sesame sauce to make biscuits.
Pei Qian began to worry when she saw it, the eldest sister liked the new and hated the old too much, and the noodle restaurant was still making money, so she wouldn't do it if she didn't do it. Fried sweet potato croquettes are also interested in frying once. Now she is going to make sesame sauce baked cakes again, and there are still oil mills and soy sauce to make over there, so how long can this sesame sauce baked cakes be sold? It's not like you can't pass for years, so you can teach it to others again!?
Pei Qin was in a panic, and tried to make the sesame sauce baked cakes, which was quite successful, and when he met again, he pushed the baked cake stall to the street to set up a stall.
There are also people who are waiting to buy sweet potato balls, but they see that she is selling pancakes again, and they also think that she is a little fickle.
However, the sesame sauce baked cake is very fragrant and delicious, I bought it before, and I came to buy it again. It was sold out.
asked Pei Qinming'er if she was setting up a stall, and waved her hand, "Put it when you are in the market!" "It means that you can put it when you want to.
Pei Qian and Pei Qian didn't care when she put it, but they didn't agree with her teaching others how to make sesame sauce pancakes, "Even if you open a workshop, you won't be very busy." I will also hire long-term workers to watch over there. As long as the soy sauce is brewed and fermented, there is no need to keep the place every day. There is only a set on the fifth day, and we have nothing to do to sell sweet potato balls and sesame sauce baked cakes, which is enough to buy vegetables and salt! ”
"Good! Good! Pei Qin nodded in agreement, she didn't expect the next stall to sell something, so let's keep the sesame sauce baked cake stall first!
Soon, September is over and it's October.
The first day of October is the Winter Clothes Festival, which is also the day of ancestor worship. and Qingming Festival, March 3rd Shangsi Festival, and Zhongyuan Festival are called the four major ghost festivals.
Today, Pei Qin also rushed to the market day, Pei Qin did not come out of the stall, made fried sweet potato balls at home, baked sesame sauce baked cakes, wrapped dumplings, cut a basket of paper money, and took it to the mountain in Houshan Village to worship Fang's family.
All families in Houshan Village are also worshipping their ancestors, especially Lao Pei's family. Pei Zongli of the second room came back alive, and brought back a rich lady as a daughter-in-law, gave birth to two sons, and now the family has built a new house, and also opened a silk shop in the county, which is a heavy thing for the old Pei family, and must be comforted to the ancestors, so the event is very grand.
The ancestral grave of the old Pei family is on the slope of the back mountain, close to the village. Pei Qin's sister and brother came down from the mountain and met the old Pei family who came back from the cemetery.
Chen's eyes suddenly stared faintly, and the light in his eyes swirled.
The old Pei family had already inquired that Pei Qin's land was not bought by her, but by the young master of a rich family, but it was given to them to plant. I also inquired about the sweet potatoes planted in the field, although I don't know the details, but it is definitely not an ordinary thing to have the county master come over to inspect.
No one thought that Pei Qin would actually catch up with the county master, and Zhu's eyes swept on Pei Qin's body like a needle, "Wen Li is going to say that she is going to marry this year, even if you move out, you will bear the name of our old Pei family." How many people in the town say that you and a man are mixed together every day, I don't care what you do, don't ruin our Wenli's reputation and affect Wenli's family affairs! ”
Pei Qian's eyes suddenly became poisonous, "We were driven out!" It has nothing to do with your old Pei family for a long time! What is your name? Don't gilt yourself! If you can't talk about good family affairs, you will ruin our reputation and blame us!? ”
"Who said I don't have a good family! You wild eggs don't want anybody! No matter how much money you make, no one will look up to you and be willing to marry you! Pei Wenli scolded angrily.
Pei Qian opened her mouth with red eyes and was about to scold her.
"Where is the study of poetry and etiquette?" Pei Qin asked her lightly.
Pei Qian pulled her and didn't let her scold Pei Wenli, "What are you scolding her, lose your share!" ”
Pei Qian gritted her teeth and stopped talking, staring at them with hatred in her eyes.
Pei Qin looked at Pei Wenli with a smile, and then looked at the Chen family and the Zhu family, "Xiucai's sister, she won't be able to find a good family!" But in the future, our sisters and brothers will take the name of the old Pei family, so don't say it. Otherwise, if my eldest sister doesn't get married, how can my younger brothers and sisters get married first? Wouldn't it be to be poked in the backbone of the family? ”
"You have nothing to do with my family for a long time!" Pei Wenli shouted angrily.
But the adults are not so hopeful, especially Pei Qin now doesn't know why he caught up with the county master. Pei Zongli's fame has not yet recovered, and after the New Year, Pei Wenli will continue to take the exam, if he catches up with the county master, these two major events will be much easier.
Pei Zongli knew that there were people in the government who were easy to do, so Wen Yan said to Pei Qin, "Qin'er! The family has built a new house, and you haven't been here yet, so come and have a cup of tea and sit down! ”
Pei Qian immediately grabbed Pei Qin, looked at Pei Zongli vigilantly, and didn't let Pei Qin go. The appearance of hypocrisy and hypocrisy must have heard something and wanted to coax the eldest sister!
Pei Qin glanced at the hand she was clutching on her arm, looked at Pei Zongli with a cold eye, and raised her eyebrows, "Then discuss the matter of the concubine's rectification?" ”
Qian Wanxiu's face suddenly turned a little blue.
"Qin'er! I'm still your biological father in general! Pei Zongli frowned.
"Hmmm! There are some things that can't be changed! Pei Qin nodded in agreement, and saw that Pei Lizheng's family had also come back, so he went over to say hello.
Before leaving, Pei Qian said hatefully, "What you have done will never change!" "She's hated them all her life!
Zhu Shitie's face was blue and he was about to scold, but Old Man Pei said in a low voice and stopped her.
glanced at Pei Qin, who was greeting Pei Li with a nonchalant smile on his face, Pei Lizheng was now completely on their side. Old man Pei let out a sigh, pursed his lips and walked home with his hands behind his back.
Pei Lizheng already knew about growing sweet potatoes, and when he sent rice noodles, Pei Qin also gave him a few sweet potatoes for him to eat. If Pei Qin can grow sweet potatoes and get a reward from the government, even if she is a girl, there is still a Fang family standing there, and the new county order this year will have a term of office of at least three years, and the re-election will be six years. In those few years, the old Pei family didn't want to fight against Pei Qin and the Fang family.
After weighing the pros and cons, Pei Lizheng decided to favor Pei Qin, and he just used the past few years to live a good life at home and send his grandson to study! Lao Pei's family can produce scholars, and their family may not be able to become officials!
So when I talked to Pei Qin again, Pei Lizheng became a lot warmer and more sincere.
After saying hello, Pei Qin came out and took the three of them back to town.
Zhang Dayun walked with them and met each other, and when he saw that Pei Qin didn't look at him, he walked over directly and clenched his fists.
Pei Qian, Pei Qian, and Pei Wendong all looked at Pei Qin's face.
I met a lot of people on the way, all of whom worshipped their ancestors, Pei Qin didn't notice Zhang Dayun at all, and he had already forgotten about him.
When I got home, not long after lunch, Fang Hui came over with Feng Chun, and also took the sacrifice, "I sacrificed to my ancestors in the morning, and in the afternoon, I thought about coming to give your mother incense and burn some paper money!" ”
Pei Qin thanked them and took them to the cemetery on the mountain again.
Fang Hui sighed all the way, saying that she usually doesn't feel it, but when she arrives at such a festival, when she thinks of her eldest sister Fang, she can't help but feel sad, and she also feels sorry for their sister and brother.
Pei Qian was moved by her.
When he arrived at the mountain, Fang Hui's face became stiff and ugly.
Yu and Fang Liuming were burning paper money in front of Fang's grave.
"The second sister is here too!" Yu got up to say hello.
Fang Liuming bowed his hand, called someone, and stood aside.
Fang Hui's face softened after a while, and she said sadly, "Hmm! Come and put incense on the eldest sister and send some paper money! The eldest sister didn't have a good life before she died, so she couldn't go down and have a bad life! ”
Yu burned the last bit of paper money and gave her the place.
Fang Hui, who was about to talk, couldn't speak after burning the paper.
Pei Qin asked Yu to go home.
"No need to go over! I'm just here to burn a handful of paper money, and I'll go back by the way! Yu was very pleased to see that Pei Qin's sisters and brothers were all wearing plain clothes, and they had also grown a lot taller.
Pei Qin nodded.
Yu didn't say hello when he came to burn the paper, he came over directly, and went back after burning, so that Fang Hui couldn't follow Pei Qin back to the town, so he had to hold back his anger and say something to let Pei Qin's sisters and brothers definitely ask them for help if they had something, if they were all from their own family, they also broke up on the way.
Pei Qian pouted and withdrew her eyes, pretending to burn paper for her mother, I don't know what to press!
Fang Hui was almost angry, "Just her Yu clan will sell it well!" She and her eldest sister are good sisters, and they have a good relationship! ”
Fang's boss, at that time, Fang's grandmother was sick all the year round, Fang's mother-in-law was pregnant, and she wanted to take Fang Hui with her, and she wanted to be filial to her mother's family, after discussing with Fang Laoxiucai, she sent her sensible and obedient eldest daughter to her mother's house to help take care of her grandmother.
The Yu family and the Fang family had known each other for a long time, and they soon played together. With the Fang family's marriage, the Yu family also got engaged to Fang Li, and the relationship between the two became better. Fang Hui has always felt that the Fang family treats the Yu family as her own sister, and she is closer than her!
Because of this, Fang Liuming proposed that he wanted to learn kung fu, and after listening to her words, he insisted on running, and Pei Qin was willing to teach him obediently.
After the Winter Clothes Festival, Fang Liuming came to the school, and Pei Qin asked him to lose weight in a sand bag, speed up, run within a time limit, and come over to learn moves from her.
After running around Taiping Town for a few months, his cousin was finally going to teach him kung fu, Fang Liuming got up before dawn with joy, accelerated the completion of the running task, and came to Pei Qin. In the past few months, he has felt that his body has become much tougher and more energetic, and his family also said that his face is better than in previous years! After practicing kung fu, I can really strengthen my body!
Pei Qin's moves are very simple, that is, they need to repeat tens of thousands of exercises, practice until they are perfect, and they can beat people freely.
Fang Liuming saw that Pei Qian and Pei Qian were practicing martial arts with Pei Qin, simple movements, constant repetition, and serious practice.
In the morning, Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin came back from buying tofu brains and steamed bun fritters from outside.
Seeing the two of them coming back from outside, Fang Liuming was puzzled, "So early, did you two go out?" ”
Pei Wendong went to find Feng Wei before dawn, and Alan Chang was also stuffed by Pei Qin's sweet potatoes for a few days.
Pei Qin wanted to teach Pei Qian and Pei Qian kung fu again, and no one at home cooked, so Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin came back from practicing martial arts and bought breakfast.
"Let's go out and learn martial arts from the Feng Guard." Pei Wendong replied to him.
Alan Chang's two guards are kung fu and live next door to a wall. Fang Liuming thought that Pei Wendong followed Chang Yonglin and his guards to learn martial arts, so he didn't ask anything more.
Mrs. Chang misses her grandson, and every time she goes back, she calls him home. At first, he also felt that his grandson might not be used to living outside, and he might not stay for long, and he would have to go home in a few days.
Although Alan Chang didn't say what he had learned at home, Chang Yuanwai knew that his grandson was reluctant to go home for so long, that is, he learned arithmetic and martial arts better than at home, so every time he said that he was sending something to Alan Chang, he had a share from Pei Qin's sister and brother.
The little master of the Chang family has been living in Taiping Town, and the Chang family has not been able to send things over every month, which is also very eye-catching.
When the Chang family launched a hand-cranked thresher, everyone suddenly understood that this hand-cranked threshing machine was most likely made by Pei Qin, who made skateboards and hand-pulled carts.
Wang Tingqi's little face was gloomy and ugly, and he felt disappointed and sad. Alan Chang lives in Pei Qin's house, she teaches Alan Chang skateboarding every day, and sells the hand-cranked thresher to the Chang family, but she doesn't come to him! He can help her sell things too!
Pei Qin saw him coming over with an ugly face, and he was happy to sell sesame sauce baked cakes, and waved his hand to greet him with a smile, "Yo! Radishes! What's wrong? ”
"I'm not a little radish!" Wang Ting said angrily with a calm face.
"Those who haven't grown up are all small turnips!" Pei Qin took a paper wrap and handed it to him.
Wang Ting subconsciously reached out and took it, it was a little hot, and handed it to the little servant to hold it, and dried it for him.
Pei Qian was frying sweet potato balls, and seeing that Wang Ting's face was not good, he asked him, "The sweet potato balls are dry, do you want to taste them?" "The eldest sister sometimes calls them, and they all pop up a sentence called little radish, I don't know where I heard it.
Wang Ting glanced at him unhappily and didn't speak.
Pei Qian took a small bowl, filled a small half bowl, took chopsticks and handed it to him.
Wang Ting ate it, and then ate the sesame sauce baked cakes, pulling his little face all the time, with a look of 'I'm not happy'.
Pei Qin expressed his understanding that the pressure of the little radish of the family is very heavy, the rules of the Wang family are big, and the royal court is not like Chang Yonglin who does not have to bury his head in studying to test his fame, and it is difficult for him to come out once.
When Pei Qin went home, Wang Ting said to her dissatisfied, "My name is Brother Ting!" It's not called a little radish! ”
In Pei Qin, the well-behaved and obedient ones are called little radish, and the naughty ones are called bear children!
Wang Ting entered the room and sat down, staring at Pei Qin, "Why has Alan Chang been living in your house?" Why don't you look for me when you sell hand-cranked threshers? ”
Pei Qin blinked, "They have a shop that sells farm tools, and the hand-cranked thresher is also a farm tool, and the hand-pulled cart is a class, so I found Chang's family!" ”
"We can sell it at home!" Wang Ting glared at her angrily.
Pei Qin looked at him and smiled, "So I'm preparing to let them finish their work and make another kind of skateboard!" ”
Wang Ting asked, "What kind of skateboard?" ”
Pei Qin described the downstream dragon board to him, "... With two wheels, you can slide forward without borrowing force! ”
He was still slippery on four wheels, and she made two more wheels. Wang Ting stared at her for a while, "Then you teach me first!" ”
"Okay!" Pei Qin smiled very well.
Wang Ting sat in the house and asked Alan Chang what he usually eats when he lives here, and he wants to eat too.
Pei Qin made him shredded sweet potatoes, sweet and sour tenderloin, salt-and-pepper lamb chops, fried sweet potato stalks, steamed sweet potato leaves and scalded bread.
The Chang family is inferior to the Wang family in all aspects, and Alan Chang and Wang Ting don't often play together, seeing him look at himself as if he was envious, Alan Chang smiled and chewed salt-and-pepper lamb chops.
In the afternoon, Pei Wendong and Alan Chang went to the school, and Wang Ting asked Alan Chang what he was doing at Pei Qin's house?
"Study, learn martial arts!" Pei Qin didn't hide it from him.
"Do you know martial arts......" Wang Ting didn't finish speaking, he thought of her two moves to knock down his little guy, and pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.
Pei Qin gave him a basket of sesame sauce baked cakes and sent him away, "My family will dig sweet potatoes in a few days, do you want to come over?" ”
Wang Ting's eyes lit up, "When will you dig?" I'll come here! ”
"Before digging sweet potatoes, when I went to the county seat to deliver peanuts, I called you!" Pei Qin said.
Wang Ting's little face sank for most of the day, and then finally turned into a smile.
It has long been frosted, and the sweet potato leaves in the field have been beaten by frost, and they taste different. Sun Quanliang's family fed pigs, so Pei Qin asked them to cut sweet potato seedlings and take them home to feed the pigs. She also picked two sacks of sweet potato leaves herself, and came back to dry them.
Sun Quanliang's family looked at it, and also wanted to pick some sweet potato leaves to dry vegetables, because the steamed sweet potato leaves are still very delicious, you can dry some dried vegetables, and you can eat many vegetables in winter. So he took the sack and took the two daughters to pick sweet potato leaves.
Because he cut a lot of sweet potato seedlings, Pei Qin had also picked them before, and Sun Quanliang's family picked them from the end of the ground, and before he went far, he saw that some sweet potato seedlings died, and when he pulled them up, he saw that the sweet potatoes in the ground had been dug up, and the seedlings were just still planted in the soil, without roots, and were beaten by frost, and died.
"Someone stole a sweet potato?" Pei Qian listened and jumped up.
Sun Quanliang's family hurriedly explained, "We watched from morning to night, and I will pay attention to it at night, and someone stole one against the ground." Seeing Pei Qian's gloomy and ugly face, she was very worried. Before, the sweet potatoes were also sent to their family, and the mother-in-law was still working in the noodle restaurant, but they didn't look at the sweet potatoes in the field.
"Just stole one? You didn't lose the cabbage, did you? Pei Qin asked.
"The cabbage was not lost! It's just that one sweet potato was stolen! Sun Quanliang's family hurriedly replied.
"It's time to dig sweet potatoes, and it's inevitable that some people will be curious. Go back and keep an eye on it! "Pei Qin also did stealing melons, digging sweet potatoes and picking fruits when he was a child, and he didn't know whose little baby was curious, so he ran to the ground at night and dug one.
Seeing that she didn't pursue it, Sun Quanliang's family hurriedly thanked her, and promised to take a good look when she went back, and hurriedly left.
"Maybe they stole it themselves! You didn't even ask, and then let them go back!? Pei Qian said angrily.
Pei Qin glanced at her, "Stealing a melon and touching a date, how can it be worth making a big fuss." Besides, if the sweet potatoes are dug up, they will also give them some, and they can't steal those pieces! ”
Pei Qian suspected that Sun Quanliang's family stole the sweet potatoes, and she also said it casually, if she really wanted to talk about it, she was even more suspicious of the people of the old Pei family, or the people of Houshan Village. Because Houshan Village to Taiping Town, there are only more than two miles of roads. Their fifty acres of land and the top of the mountain village in the back.
But there are people watching during the day, and whoever stole one at night can't be checked. It's a lot cheaper to buy a grange, but they don't have that much money in their hands now. can only let the people of Sun Quanliang's family watch it closely.
Mo Heng, who hadn't come to the door for a long time, came over again, "Has the soy sauce workshop been built?" ”
"Just put on the beam and cover the tile." Pei Qin replied to him.
Mo Heng was silent, "When the workshop is built, I'll help you go to see the workshop!" ”
Pei Qin raised her eyebrows.
Without hearing her answer, Mo Heng lowered his eyes and said, "Father Kong's grandson wants to get married, and he wants to repair the house for them to marry." ”
"So you got out?" Pei Qin said.
"There must be someone to guard your workshop, I will help you watch the workshop, no money." Mo Heng raised his eyes and 'looked' at her.
When Pei Qin heard this, he pointed at him and said angrily, "Why do you still owe your mother twenty taels of silver, and you dare to ask for money!?" ”
The corners of Mo Heng's mouth slowly raised, "No money!" ”
Pei Qin pinched her waist and didn't speak, her two eyebrows wrinkled together unhappily. Feng Wei definitely didn't have any money in his hand, he was reluctant to go far, and all the money he earned was given to this blind man to grab medicine and eat. If you rent another place to live, it will be convenient for the two little radishes to learn martial arts in the past.
Seeing that Mo Heng was actually laughing, he didn't have a good breath, "What are you laughing at!" Smile nicely, huh!? ”
The smile on Mo Heng's face deepened, "Whatever you do, you can let me do it!" ”
Pei Qin glanced at him, which was a tacit acquiescence. At least Feng Wei is a practitioner, and with him watching the workshop, he doesn't have to worry about being robbed. Although she didn't want to provoke these two obviously troublesome master and servant, Xiao Radish had already learned martial arts and literature from them.
Mo Heng thanked him, and after he was blind, he felt ...... for the first time Briskly, after going back, I also took out the sugar fried peanuts and ate a handful.
The workshop house is simple and easy, except for the building of a little more house, which was also completed quickly.
In the front yard is an oil mill and a small workshop, and in the back is a soy sauce workshop and a large drying yard.
The house built for the long-term workers to live in was also put on a kang, and the kang was burned in the house, baked and dried, and Mo Heng and Feng Wei's master and servant moved to live in the workshop.
At this time, the sweet potatoes were also in full swing, Pei Qin said that he would call Wang Ting to come over, and when he went to the county seat to deliver peanuts, he went to Wang's house to inform him.
Wang Ting had agreed with his family before, Zhang Yan said that he would accompany Wang Ting to see the situation of the sweet potato, and his uncle and nephew rushed over in a carriage early in the morning the next day.
The people of the Fang family and the Feng family all came to help, as well as Sun Lizheng's family.
Pei Qin hired a few more people to cut the sweet potato seedlings first, lifted them aside, and began to dig slowly with a three-toothed iron rake.
Last time, Pei Qin asked Sun Quanliang to find someone, plus a few of his sisters and brothers dug up, just more than one acre of land. This time there is a lot of land, and since the excavation is being excavated, it will be dug in one day, and there will be more people.
Many people saw that they started digging sweet potatoes, so they came to see.
Wang Ting didn't know that sweet potatoes grew like this, and they stretched long seedlings on the ground, and then they formed sweet potatoes in the ground.
Zhang Yan checked sweet potatoes, and there are not many plants in Fanbang, but he didn't expect Pei Qin to know and plant.
When two acres of land were dug and a large pile of sweet potatoes were piled up, not only the onlookers, but even Sun Quanliang's family who had dug it up again had to be shocked.
When Wu Dongsi rushed over, he saw a mountain of sweet potatoes and his eyes widened, "How much land has you dug here?" ”
"More than three acres of land, less than four acres." Pei Qin replied to him.
Sun Lizheng hurriedly came over and was about to salute, "My lord! ”
Sun Quanliang also knelt down, "The grass people have seen adults!" ”
As soon as I heard that the person who came was the county magistrate, seeing that he was not wearing an official uniform, but with a few guards, and still sitting in a carriage, Sun Lizheng saluted, and hulala knelt down, and he couldn't hide his surprise. The county magistrate even came to see digging sweet potatoes!?
Wu Dongsi hurriedly waved his hand and asked everyone to get up, and glanced at Pei Qin, who did not kneel and salute, and did not ask what to say, and asked her, "How many catties of sweet potatoes can be harvested from more than seven acres of land?" ”
Pei Qin estimated that there are more than 1,000 to 2,000 catties per acre of land, "about 13,000 catties to 15,000 catties." More should be more, not too much! ”
So much is already gasping.
Wu Dongsi laughed and shouted loudly, "Okay! Plant again next year! "He has contributed a lot to the promotion of this sweet potato! Pei Qin is a little village girl, no matter how rewarded, he can't go!
