One hundred and thirty-eight chapters
Deng Shi and Li Zhu glanced at each other, and Li Zhu said: "Uncle, Min'er and I have just been in charge for a short time, maybe the two of us are not as good as you and Brother Mu Quan, or you are working hard, go to the town to help choose one or two." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Li Hongshen shook his head and said, "I will definitely go to the town to help you pass through tomorrow, and I will also see who you Brother Mu and Brother Quan choose." However, after all, your uncle and I have never been served by others in the past, and my vision is still a little lacking. I still have to know how to do it and give you a look. Your father-in-law is the head of the first hospital, and his eyesight is good, and you Ming'er also asked him to help him pass the eye. If your uncle chooses a small house, then your eldest sister may choose the shopkeeper, and your father-in-law must choose better than the shopkeeper, and it may not be anything. Ming'er's family affairs can be entrusted to your father, let's go to the town and choose one. ”
After Li Zhu heard this, he pondered for a while, looked at Brother Li Hai and Deng Chi, and nodded in agreement. After hearing this, Binbin was busy playing with him, Li Tao and Li Bo were just joining in the fun, and they also followed the noise, and in the end, Li Zhu's family and Deng Chi both went to the town together. Li Zhu's idea in his heart was that when it came to making people for a long time, Deng Chi was the most known person in his neighborhood, and if he judged according to the uncle's judgment, it must be Deng Chi's eyesight.
With Aunt Sun's help, dinner was served at once, and Li Hongshen told Mr. Li about going to the town with Li Zhu during the dinner, and Mr. Li took care of the family's affairs.
After dinner, Li Zhu and Li Cuihua talked about going to the town, Li Cuihua thought about it, and said helplessly: "Listening to what you say, I also want to buy a small house, not only to help the family, but also to be Gui'er's scholar, and Gui'er can also help when she takes the exam." After hearing this, Li Zhu said happily: "Eldest sister, since this is the case, let's go to the town together." You buy one too. ”
Li Cuihua frowned and said, "It's not proper, now that Zhang Ran has just divided the family, I will buy a small house here, and I still have to take care of Zhang Ran's face." I don't know how to choose people, and the maids in the family in the past were assigned to me by my mother-in-law. You can ask your mother to show you this. ”
Li Zhu sighed after hearing this, and asked the eldest sister Li Cuihua to help talk, and asked Mrs. Zhang to help choose one or two, Li Cuihua smiled and agreed, knocked lightly on the door in front of the small building, and asked internally: "Mother, have you slept?" ”
Mrs. Zhang had just finished taking a shower and responded, "No, you wait." After a while, Mrs. Zhang came over and opened the door. As soon as Mrs. Zhang saw Li Zhu, she greeted warmly: "It's his third uncle, come in and sit." ”
After hearing this, Li Zhu shook his head and said, "Mrs. Zhang, no need, I want to ask you something, just talk about it." Mrs. Zhang was happy when she heard it, "If there is anything you can help with when you show off, you can say that as long as I can help, I will definitely help." Li Zhu smiled sincerely: "That's the case, I heard my father say that it's cheap to buy people now, and I want to buy one or two people back, so that I can help farm and feed livestock." ”
Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "This one is really going to be obtained, when are you going to go to the town to buy it?" ”
As soon as Li Zhu heard that there was a door, he hurriedly said: "Tomorrow, I want to go to the town tomorrow, but I'm afraid that the price will change." Mrs. Zhang smiled and agreed. Li Zhu hurriedly made an appointment with Mrs. Zhang for tomorrow, thanked Li Cuihua for her help, chatted with her eldest sister Li Cuihua for a while, and then went home.
In the evening, Li Zhu and Deng talked about going to the town tomorrow, Deng looked at Deng Chi and sighed: "Why do we have to go to the town, let's not say much, just say that Deng Chi is our distant relative." If there is anything else, I will see the move. After hearing this, Li Zhu nodded, sighed, and didn't say anything more.
Deng Chi knew that he had caused trouble to Li Zhu's family, so he shrunk under the quilt, did not squeak, and pretended to be asleep.
Deng Shi and Li Zhu discussed the gifts they needed to prepare when they returned to their parents' house tomorrow, and Li Zhu thought for a while and said, "Now my father-in-law and uncle are busy reopening the academy, and many things are being prepared, and we can't help with that." Now in addition to people, the things used to eat are more expensive, we have some surplus silver in our hands, there is food at home, and we have grown our own vegetables, and the silver savings are enough, let's give your mother's family some silver, I think this should be more real than buying things. ”
After hearing this, Deng nodded, and in front of Li Zhu, wrapped five taels of silver in a small red cloth. Li Zhu nodded.
Because they were going to town tomorrow, the family washed up and went to sleep.
On the second day, Li Zhu's family had breakfast and dressed neatly. Mrs. Zhang also appeared in the courtyard on time.
Deng thanked Mrs. Zhang again for her help. Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "I can't help other busy old people, when it comes to buying people, I can still help with the selection." ”
Li Zhu asked the children to thank Mrs. Zhang for her help, and the children thanked them obediently. Mrs. Zhang looked at the upbringing of the children of the Li Zhu family, and felt a burst of emotion in her heart. The young masters and ladies in the family do not have such a demeanor, Zhang Gui was also taken back to her parents' house by Li Cuihua to have some shapes, it seems that this Li family is worthy of being a double talent. When Mrs. Zhang thought of this, she was even more polite to Li Zhu's family.
Deng Shi packed up some soft and helped Mrs. Zhang to get into the ox cart, and Li Zhu drove the ox cart to the uncle's house to pick up the uncle, and then went to the town together.
As soon as Li Zhu arrived in the town, he went straight to Li Mu and Li Quan, asked his uncle Li Hongshen to rest at Brother Mu and Brother Quan's house, and entrusted Mrs. Zhang to Li Mu to take care of him, so he moved his family to Deng Juren's house.
Deng Juren hadn't seen the Deng family and his grandsons for a long time, and he was very happy about the arrival of Li Zhu's family. Li Zhu succinctly said what he wanted to buy.
Mrs. Deng thought that she could buy someone to go home and help Min'er do things, and as soon as she heard Li Zhu talk, she agreed in her heart. Deng Juren frowned after hearing this, and asked, "Min'er, your family still lives in that small house, do you have any surplus silver in your hands?" ”
Deng said with a smile: "Dad, our family has sold some grain, chickens." This has just been the end of the civil strife, and the price has been sold a little higher. I have been making embroidery for half a year, and I have also sold some silver, and our family now has a little extra money in hand. Our family has little labor, and everyone feels sorry for me, so I won't let me go down to help. The autumn harvest and cultivation have been hired by our family since they were separated. Thinking that there are still some livestock at home that need to be taken care of, and it is also an expense to hire people for autumn harvest and farming, I want to buy one or two people to save some silver in the long run. ”
After hearing this, Deng Juren nodded with a smile and asked, "Can the saplings brought by your eldest brother be suitable?" Deng replied: "Yes and appropriate." ”
Deng Juren looked at his daughter's ruddy face and smiling eyebrows, and finally let go of the stone in his heart. The days of his daughter's house have always been the stalk of Deng Juren.
Deng Juren said to Li Zhu: "Okay, you all think it's okay, let's go to the southeast gate." I'll take a look at it for you, and it's up to you to decide in the end. Li Zhu and Deng were extremely happy when they heard this.
Deng introduced Deng Chi to his mother's family, saying that this was a distant relative, she happened to bump into it on the road, and saw that the child was small and pitiful, so she took it, and she ate and lived with her family in the future.
Deng Juren thought that this was the child that Deng picked up on the road, and asked him to be Li Hai's brother's little servant, he looked good, and saved the money to buy her body, and smiled to help round up the loopholes in her lies.
Li Zhu Deng thought that his father-in-law (father) had acquiesced, and he also smiled and talked about Deng Chi together, and together they set Deng Chi's past. Li Zhu and Deng both put down a stone in their hearts.
After chatting for a while, considering that Li Zhu's family had to rush back to the village this afternoon, there was little time, and under the reminder of Mrs. Deng, the two families were exempted from some etiquette and customs, and rushed out of Deng Juren's house to the southeast gate.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Deng Caixuan just came back in a carriage.
After Deng met his eldest brother, he told Deng Caixuan about his desire to buy helpers.
After hearing this, Deng Caixuan asked Li Zhu to drive the carriage back to Li Mu's house, and he drove the carriage to send everyone over.
Li Zhu should leave, so he left first, and waited for the Deng family and the children to narrate in Deng Juren.
Deng Juren just happened to compare Li Hai's reading situation. Deng told Deng Caixuan about the matter about Deng Chi that he had just decided with Deng Juren, Deng Caixuan nodded, and compared Deng Chi's reading.
To Deng Caixuan's surprise, Deng Chi was only four years old, but he could already memorize two books fluently. His first reaction was, another genius!
When Deng Caixuan was compared with Deng Chi, he was in the same hall as Deng Juren, and Deng Juren listened to Deng Chi's endorsement and said: "Yes, it's much better than the group of people in the academy, but the horse can't catch up with my grandson." After speaking, he raised his head proudly.
Deng Caixuan compared Deng Chi in the hall, that is, he had a heart to see Deng Juren test Li Hai's brother, just listened to Deng Juren and Li Hai's questions and answers, it was Deng Juren who asked, Li Hai answered, there was no pause in the middle, and he was already speechless in surprise.
At this moment, hearing Deng Juren's praise for his grandson, thinking that Li Hai could memorize two books at the age of three, he looked at Deng Chi, and suddenly felt that this child was nothing more than that. Therefore, no matter how good things are, they cannot be compared, and the good ones must fall to the lower level.
Deng pulled his mother-in-law, said some intimate words, and secretly stuffed five taels of silver to Mrs. Deng to buy some clothes.
Mrs. Deng hurriedly excused herself, Deng's eyes were red, and she choked up and said: "Mother, in the past, my daughter lived a difficult life, and I had a lot of help from my mother, but now my daughter's life is getting better, I want to honor my mother and father, but I don't have time to prepare gifts, you can take this silver, and treat it as your daughter's money to buy clothes for you and your father." ”
After hearing this, Mrs. Deng put away the silver with relief and asked, "Li Zhuke knows about this silver?" Is this your own private money? After hearing this, Deng Shi smiled and said: "The matter of silver money is still mentioned by Li Zhu. I am in charge of all our family's money, and there is no such thing as personal money. ”
After hearing this, Mrs. Deng sighed with emotion: "In the past, my mother still felt sorry for you for your suffering and tiredness, and she didn't please you. But as soon as the family is divided, your good life will be revealed. Zhu is a painful person, and I think of buying someone to help do things, that is, I am assertive, you are blessed now, and the stone in my mother's heart has also landed. (To be continued.) )
