The latest chapter of "The Peasant Landlord's Wife"...

When Feng San and Fan Lei came back from the city, it was already evening, and Orchid and Aunt Chun were already in the hall of Hui Niang's house at this time, waiting for her to settle her salary.

Hui Niang roughly calculated, if nothing else, this time Baoyuezhai checkout of the silver is definitely not less than six hundred taels, plus the one hundred taels of silver sold by the shops in the town, this Mid-Autumn Festival can be said to be a rich harvest. Hui Niang prepared everything that should be prepared, and Aunt Qi followed behind with a few baskets of mooncakes.

As soon as I came out, I saw a few people looking at Hui Niang and Aunt Qi with a smile, and Aunt Fang Yinhua moved her buttocks, gave up her seat, and asked Hui Niang to sit over, Hui Niang shook her head, "Aunt Yinhua, you sit down, I sit the same." ”

"Okay." Aunt Yinhua was also polite and sat back down.

Hui Niang motioned for Aunt Qi to put the things she was carrying on the table, moved a stool and sat down, and began to pay Orchid a few people, Aunt Yinhua looked at the bag on Hui Niang's lap brightly, and didn't even blink her eyes.

Aunt Chun saw her like this, laughed and scolded her a few words, Aunt Yinhua laughed even happier, Hui Niang was funny when she saw it, but she didn't say anything, knowing that Aunt Yinhua was the most urgent, she first paid her salary, and started to make moon cakes from the fifth day of the first month, today is exactly fifteen, a total of ten days of work, a hundred dollars a day, ten days on one or two silver, plus Hui Niang's previous reward, then decided to double the salary.

took out two taels of broken silver from the bag and handed it to Aunt Yinhua, and said with a smile: "Aunt Yinhua, this is your salary." ”

Aunt Yinhua swallowed her saliva, I don't know whether to take it or not, look at this, look at that, after a while, Orchid poked Aunt Yinhua, "Auntie." You're taking it? ”

Aunt Yinhua rubbed her hands in embarrassment, took the salary in Hui Niang's hand, and her old face smiled. I didn't expect that the reward that Hui Niang said was to double the salary, and the smile on Yinhua's face couldn't hide it.

also went to bite the two taels of silver, which made everyone laugh, and Orchid also quipped: "Auntie." Why don't you let Hui Niang help you change it to a copper plate, so that you can just enjoy the feeling of counting the cramps in your hands. What do you think? ”

"You're poor." Aunt Yinhua laughed embarrassedly.

Orchid and Aunt Chun both have the same salary as Yinhua, and each person has a basket of moon cakes, and Salted Egg Hui Niang also gave more than a dozen.

The orchids were not polite, and happily took it, naturally very satisfied with these people. It's just that a few of them don't want these eggs, they have as many eggs as they have in each family, what to do with these eggs, Hui Niang saw that a few people didn't understand, and said with a smile: "This is not a home-born egg, it's a salted egg that I pickled." It's very delicious, Sister Orchid, you will definitely like to eat it after eating. ”

Hui Niang briefly explained how to eat salted eggs. She is not boasting, if this salted egg is not popular, this Pei Muqing will not tell her to pickle more salted eggs several times, you must know that in the north now, the weather is gradually getting colder. As soon as the weather is cold, there is no food in winter.

Speaking of which. Hui Niang also plans to sell moldy tofu this year.

Several people were surprised, "Really? It turns out that this egg can still be eaten like this, it's really a rare thing, Hui Niang, thank you. ”

"It's fine." After a few people talked for a while, they said goodbye to Hui Niang and went home, "Well, Sister Orchid, auntie, you go slowly." ”

"Hui Niang, don't send it, we're not far away, we'll just go back by ourselves, you're busy with yours." Aunt Chun persuaded.

"Okay, I won't send it."

As soon as a few orchids were sent away, Luo Shuang came to the door alone, greeted Hui Niang, and found a place to sit down, Hui Niang looked up and said, "Xiaoshuang, where is your brother?" Why didn't you come? ”

Luo Shuang played with the corner of her clothes and responded, "My brother is at home." "I look a little embarrassed.

Hui Niang sighed, gave Luo Shuang and Luo Jiu's wages, gave the same thing, and asked her to go back first, and when Fan Lei and Feng San came back, the sun was about to set, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Old Man Fan did not inform several sons and daughters-in-law to go to the Mid-Autumn Festival together, thinking that it was the reason why Li was not at home.

When Feng San came back, he took the moon cake money given by Bao Yuezhai to Hui Niang, and said to Hui Niang: "Mrs., there are things sent by the shopkeeper Zhang on the carriage, and the shopkeeper Zhang is too enthusiastic for me to refuse, so I accepted it on my own initiative." ”

"Oh, then you can take it down, fourth brother, you and your fourth brother and sister have worked hard in the past few days, these ten taels of silver are your wages, you are welcome, accept it." sent Feng San away, and Hui Niang took ten taels of silver to Fan Lei.

Fan Lei frowned, and looked at Hui Niang with an embarrassed expression, "Third sister-in-law, this is too much, you still have to count according to how many days of work I have done, if this spreads, the eldest brother will not be happy in their hearts." ”

Last year, he was ignorant and took advantage of his third brother, this year is different from last year, it is not good to always take advantage, Fan Lei insisted, "Okay, I will calculate the salary of your work, less silver, fourth brother, don't you feel distressed?" Hui Niang joked.

"Third sister-in-law, don't worry, I know it in my heart." If he takes too much, he will be uneasy, and he will definitely be said when he goes back.

Fan Lei's working days are shorter, even if the salary is doubled, there are no two taels of silver, but Fan Lei did not dislike it, and happily took it, Hui Niang gave Fan Lin and Fan Old Man the money to make baskets, a total of six taels of silver, of course, because Hui Niang gave it up.

Fan Lei didn't ask, after receiving the money, he was about to leave, Hui Niang hurriedly stopped him, "Fourth brother, don't be in a hurry to leave first, wait a while, you can bring back the mooncakes I gave to my father and eldest brother." ”

After speaking, he shouted into the house: "Aunt Qi, take out the moon cakes I prepared." ”

Fan Lei couldn't, so he had to wait for Aunt Qi to take out the moon cakes, glanced at Hui Niang, thought about it and asked, "Third sister-in-law, is the third brother coming back for the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”

Hui Niang shook her head, "I don't know, he didn't say it." Speaking of this, Hui Niang complained about Fan Ming hundreds of times in her heart, even if this person went out, she didn't often write a few letters, she didn't say anything about the situation, and she almost didn't die in a hurry.

Seeing that Hui Niang was depressed, Fan Lei was in a blink of an eye, and learned that Old Man Fan was spending the Mid-Autumn Festival at Fan Lin's house this year, so he was relieved, and when Aunt Qi took out the moon cakes, Fan Lei left in a hurry, and didn't even pay attention to Feng San greeting him. This time, the gifts given by the shopkeeper are much more expensive than last year, and the gift box alone is several more than last year, not to mention the valuable things inside.

Hui Niang secretly said that this shopkeeper was kind, opened the gift and looked at it, took out the things that could be used on weekdays, and put the things that could not be used into the warehouse, put these, Aunt Qi went to cook, before going, Hui Niang gave her a packet of brown sugar and asked her to take it back to soak in water and drink.

Aunt Qi didn't want to live or die, "Madam, I can't accept such a valuable thing, so you can keep it for entertaining guests later, right?" His face turned red.

"That's not possible, Aunt Qi, I gave it to you, you can accept it, you have worked hard for a while, in the evening, let's cook a table of good dishes, and it will be lively." Aunt Qi and her husband helped her so much, and Hui Niang was not moved in her heart, it was fake.

Aunt Qi hesitated for a moment before accepting the packet of brown sugar, "By the way, there is also this jujube, I separated, you can take a packet back to Xiaoxue later." Hui Niang commanded again.

Aunt Qi had red eyes, took the things that Hui Niang gave her and left, in the evening, the two made a table of meals, and they were serving it, Feng San's joyful cry in front, Hui Niang and Aunt Qi glanced at each other, and Aunt Qi scolded in a low voice: "This old thing, what kind of nerves do you have at night, what do you call and do loudly?" ”

Hui Niang listened to Aunt Qi's words, sneered, brought the food to the table, and was about to turn around, when she caught a glimpse of the familiar figure who was entering the house.

The familiar figure was grinning and grinning at her, "Daughter-in-law......"

Not long ago, she was still talking about the person, and it didn't take long for her to stand in front of her, Hui Niang was different, for fear that this was a dream, and she was stunned to watch Fan Ming come over step by step, motionless, and the next moment fell into the familiar embrace, Hui Niang finally came back to her senses and knew that this was not a dream.

In the past few months, what he has endured, the moment he saw Fan Ming, completely collapsed, and tears flowed down non-stop, as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances suffered by Fan Ming in the past few months.

Fan Ming didn't expect that as soon as he came back, Hui Niang would cry so much, she was frightened, so she had to hug her and coax, gently patted her back, and coaxed: "Daughter-in-law, I'm back, don't cry, I know it's me who is not good, and I make you worried." ”

Hui Niang's tears quickly soaked Fan Ming's shoulders, hammered his back, and complained loudly: "You... You're embarrassed to say that you've only written me a few letters after going out for so long, and I don't even know where you are or how you've been doing lately......"

Hui Niang cried louder and louder, "Daughter-in-law, don't cry, next time I will never do this, where to go, I must write to tell you, don't you cry?" ”

Listening to Fan Ming's pleading, Hui Niang suddenly stopped crying, and the next moment she laughed out loud and hammered Fan Ming hard, "Now you know how to beg me?" Why didn't you write to us in the first place, I don't know we were worried about you? ”

As she finished speaking, Miao Miao ran down from upstairs, saw Fan Ming, and shouted, "Dad, are you back?" ”

After shouting, he rushed down the stairs violently, without even looking at the stairs, Hui Niang was frightened, Fan Ming quickly let go of Hui Niang, took a few steps forward, and caught Miao Miao who ran down.

"Oh, catch it, Daddy is awesome!" Miao Miao put her arms around Fan Ming's neck and screamed happily.

Hui Niang hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, walked over, and said dissatisfiedly: "You, you are still naughty, what if your father can't catch it?" You won't be allowed to do that next time, you know? ”

As soon as Hui Niang said, Miao Miao immediately became well-behaved, nodded frequently, and stuck out her tongue, "Got it, mother." ”
