Chapter 555: Bestowed
Maybe Grandpa Er Ya is really like what her grandmother said, she is scared, and there is no big problem on him. After the second girl visited him in a good manner, and finally quarreled with the second granddaughter, his body slowly got better again. At the head of the village in Liujiazhuang, I can see a disgusting and annoying old man, this person is poking in the pile, that person is poking and poking, and others are smiling at him flatteringly, and they turn around and "Bah!" He: "This old immortal, who can't die after lying in bed for so many days, has begun to show off everywhere again!" ”
"Cut! What's in your eyes? People have to show off, but you can't show off if you want to! You have to have his good life, but I am afraid that you will be more visible than him. ”
"Roar! If you speak so well for others, can you get gold or silver? ”
"I can't get anything, I just can't get used to your lack of virtue in front of people laughing and being scolded to death."
"Who do you say lacks virtue? Who do you say lacks virtue? ”
"Just talk about you! How? I want to fight! ”
“”
It was Erya's grandfather's distant cousin who was scolding behind this, so it's no wonder that he was unbalanced in his heart. At the beginning, the living conditions of the two families can be said to be one in the sky and the other on the earth. His family eats meat, and Liu Xishan's (Erya's grandfather) family can only eat baba made of wild vegetables and rice bran. Now it's upside down, although his family doesn't eat bran vegetables, but the gap with Liu Xishan's family is no longer the difference between bran and meat. In the past, when Liu Xijiao was poor, he tried his best to laugh at him, but now that Liu Xishan's family has turned over, he is jealous, resentful and unwilling. But he didn't dare to be a little dissatisfied with Liu Xijiao in person, otherwise Liu Xijiao would really be able to spit on his face. Therefore, he can only curse behind his back.
Others know that he is just scolding behind his back because he is unbalanced, and other people in Zhuangzi also have unbalanced hearts, so when he scolds. Everyone else laughed and listened. It's just that he never thought that this accompaniment man from other places would choke with him, and even move his sleeves to fight, which scared him a lot. He knew in his heart that if the granddaughter and son-in-law who called Liu Slender knew that he was cursing Liu Slender Leg behind his back, it would be bad. The free restraint of their own children must be gone, and the stall set up by their mother-in-law at the entrance of the school must be kicked out.
He thought of these stern consequences. I didn't dare to shoot with this outsider anymore, so I turned around and went home without saying a word. On the contrary, it made this uneven outsider dizzy, and he watched in a daze as people walked away.
The second girl who was at home didn't know these things. As long as her grandfather can move around again, she is relieved, the old people are all old, and she is indeed afraid of their sudden departure. I'm afraid that they will be like the original grandfather, who said that they would be unconscious. I didn't wake up until I lost my breath.
The family's business didn't require her to work harder. It's just that the shoe factory suddenly received an order for rubber-soled cotton shoes from the army, and the quantity was a bit large, and a factory couldn't keep it busy at all. Erya had to go into battle in person, leading a group of people to urgently recruit employees and assign class masters, and set up a temporary processing plant in Hepu Town.
According to Erya's original intention, she was unwilling to take over the business of the army and the government, but this time the Emperor Taishang took out his own silver to customize it for the soldiers on the northeast border, and she couldn't shirk it. Not only to take this business, but also to make the best quality at the lowest price! After she knew that the Emperor Taishang had secretly sheltered their Wang family too much over the years, even if she didn't need money, she had to do a good job of handing over the Emperor Taishang to her family.
Just the day after the temporary military shoe factory started. When it was still very busy, the Tongzhi in the government office came in a hurry on horseback.
"Mrs. Wang! Great good, great good! You hurry up and pack up your home with your home. The emperor sent a messenger down. Say something for you and your household! ”
In fact, the government will not notify this kind of thing in advance, and generally the envoy comes, and whoever is at home will receive the envoy and the emperor's will. It's just that the person who came to greet him in advance today is none other than the youngest son of Lord Yu who inspected the mountains with Xiaolong.
'Don't fight, don't know each other' is really a wonderful thing, if Lord Yu didn't accuse Xiaolong at the beginning, maybe now his family will be the same as other people, still a faint friendship. But his family is even more grateful to Xiaolong because of his unfriendliness to Xiaolong at the beginning, and his youngest son was promoted from the county magistrate to the state capital to be a fellow governor, and he is also very attentive to the Wang family.
For this Xiaoyu adult, Er Ya and Xiaohu have seen it, but they are not very familiar. Today, it was quite surprising to see him come over to inform them to pack up their house and wait for the emperor's decree. However, Erya didn't show it, and she was busy taking Ding's sister-in-law to clean up, and asked Xiaohu to accompany him to talk. Xiaohu had nothing else to talk about, so he had to talk to him about the tea garden that everyone knows: "How is your tea garden?" How much money can I make in a year? ”
As soon as Lord Xiaoyu talked about his tea garden, he was so happy that he couldn't dance with his hands, he understood what his identity was, and he still knew how to converge. The tone was joyful and excited: "My family's tea garden has been planted enough for 500 acres two years ago. In the first two years, the tea garden did not make any money, but every year it brought goods back and forth to do business, and in addition, it collected wild tea picked by the locals, and it was poured upside down, but it also earned enough money invested in the tea garden. Since the third year, this tea garden has begun to make money, and it has become more and more every year. Last year's income was more than 20,000 taels, and all the money was used by my mother to buy land. Huh"
It's okay to earn 20,000 taels from 500 acres of tea plantation, Xiaohu nodded with a smile: "When the tea garden is cooked, this input may increase a little more." ”
"Uncle Wang is right, although the stewards arranged by the family in the past, although they are capable and practical, they are not very familiar with the tea garden. When he slowly cooks it, it will be better in the future. ”
While they were talking, Erya took Ding's sister-in-law to pick up and pick up, everything was sorted out, and the incense case and everything had been arranged, just waiting for the messenger to deliver the holy decree to arrive.
After receiving the holy decree, I learned that Xiaohu and his wife had a career in raising many orphans, many of whom had a chance to study, and became officials. The Emperor Taishang and the Emperor both called it great goodness, and gave Xiaohu the title of Righteous Waiting, ranking third grade, and Erya ranking third rank for Righteous Lady. In other words, although the couple does not have a real job, they can be on an equal footing with the Sanpin officials.
The envoy conveyed the holy decree in a different place, and the time was not so urgent, and the second girl invited him to have dinner at home before leaving, and the envoy did not refuse.
Erya and Sister-in-law Ding were busy eating in the kitchen, Xiaohu and Xiaoyu accompanied the envoys from the capital to chat and talk, and the other entourages played chess and cards in the courtyard, each having their own play.
Even if the envoy came from the palace, the emperor and the emperor couldn't ask about it casually, even if it was really out of concern, they could only talk about some new things outside the palace in the capital.
"I heard that there has been a very prosperous street in the capital in the past two years, which is said to be more lively than the temple fair, and the whole street is full of shops and sells everything. Anything you eat, drink, use, and anything you can't buy anywhere else, you can buy it there. All foreign goods, there is no shortage there, everything is available. There is even a special corridor in the middle of the street, where people can set up stalls to sell snacks, such as kebabs, fried stinky tofu, popsicles, fried melon seeds, fried chestnuts, rock sugar gourds, everything you can eat can be bought there. But it's even more famous than the roots of the imperial city."
Xiaohu listened to it and felt very familiar, why did it look so much like the pedestrian street made by his daughter-in-law?
"My lord! Where is this land? If we go to the capital, we will also go over to see the world? ”
"It's right next to that cat's ear alley! You may not know about Mao'er Hutong, but you should know about the famous 'Excellent Ju' community. It's right next to that!
Speaking of that 'excellent residence', it is staggering again. The last batch of houses there, a house is more expensive than a three-entry compound, but it can't stand someone to buy it. But, then again, it's beautiful! If it weren't for the fact that the miscellaneous family was not allowed to leave the palace, the miscellaneous family would also be willing to spend a lot of money to buy a house there, and there would be no better place to retire there. ”
This messenger didn't know the relationship between the boss of Excellence House and Xiaohu, so he didn't deliberately exaggerate 'Excellence House'. He also gave an old marquis a holy decree, the old marquis did not live in his own Hou Mansion, but lived in the 'Excellence Residence', he didn't have much time to wait for the old Hou Ye to go back, so he had to go to the 'Excellence Residence', just when he saw the peony in the fourth phase of the 'Excellence Residence' in full bloom, he was surprised. The shape, with other flowers and trees, is more attractive than the Imperial Garden.
Xiaohu smiled: "Adult! The street you're talking about is probably our family. We haven't had time to go to the capital, so my son is taking care of it, I really don't know how good it has been! ”
His words made the messenger puzzled: "If you want to say that it is your family, the miscellaneous family will understand." I heard that your family is still doing ocean business, what kind of street did you learn from there? ”
"Probably yes! It's all my daughter-in-law and son Zhang Luo, I don't know anything! Hehe! ”
Lord Xiaoyu has been far away from the capital in recent years, and he really doesn't know what is new in the capital, so he can't interject, just listen silently on the side. Fortunately, Erya and the others cooked quickly, and after a while, they made a few dishes for them and the entourage outside to drink first, and then wait for the dishes while drinking.
sent away the emperor's envoy, and all the people in the village rushed to Xiaohu's house to congratulate Xiaohu and his family.
Xiaohu didn't dare to hold it up, so he was busy and modestly coping with everyone: "Hey! I didn't do anything, it was the children's righteousness, and we must ask for a seal, because we got the children's plan. ”
Ben Guitang's grandfather is also old, his waist is a little unable to straighten, this time I also heard that Xiaohu and his wife have been gifted, their waists leaned forward slightly, but their legs and feet ran over very quickly. After listening to Xiaohu's words, he retorted with a smile: "You two have done so much for those children, more than those of us as parents have done for our children." You're still saying you didn't do anything, and it's all too much for us to stand. ”
"Master Ben, I'm not talking nonsense, these should be the credit of my daughter-in-law, I really didn't do anything." (To be continued.) )
