The old house in the courtyard of the Li family has been cleaned up for the eldest sister and his wife to live in, and Zhang Gui has lived in the house where Li Cuihua lived before, that is, the guest room in the old man Li's room. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Cuihua is thinking about the house of her third brother near the courtyard door, she knows the temperament of her own children best, how can Zhang Gui have the determination of Li Hai's brother, she is afraid of Zhang Gui, and she can't read the book when she hears the sound, so she simply lets Zhang Gui live in the back room.

Li Yu sold some of the family's old grain, and after getting the silver, he bought ten acres of fertile land, all of which were recorded in Li Zhu's name to save rent. At Lee's repeated requests, he bought a cow and added three pigs. Li is a hard-working man, and in the past, in addition to helping in the fields, he also tied red knots and raised chickens. Li Yu's family has more than half of the children, and the Li family wants to start saving some money for the children as soon as possible.

Li Yu and the Li family, their current thoughts have been more or less influenced by Li Zhu, they have been able to accept some of Li Zhu's practices, even if the children are selected for talent in the future, there will be no big changes in their lives.

Now there are two Xiucai molds in the family, Li Dao, who is Mr.; Li Zhu, who adheres to the same lifestyle and has been farming. Looking at the two of them now, the two of them want their children to choose Li Zhu's path. Of course, the two of them are still interested in their children's education, and the fact that they are exempt from field tax and do not need to go to labor is still very attractive.

Mr. Li's current life can be said to be comfortable and freehand.

Old Man Li's land has been taken care of by Li Yu, and he only needs to go down to the ground from time to time to help for a while. The pigs that Mr. Li raised in Li Zhu in partnership with his eldest daughter Li Cuihua earlier are now taken care of by Shang Lao. For three meals, his three children take turns eating at home, and they all choose what they like. This is also Li Yu, Li Cuihua, and Li Zhu's filial piety, every time they eat, they prepare an extra portion, and Mr. Li can use it whenever he comes over.

Li Cuihua asked Li Yu to buy another three acres of land for Zhang Ran.

She asked Li Mu to help sell some old grain, and she added some of the silver she got and bought three acres of mountain land.

Now Li Cuihua has 23 acres of fertile land, 3 acres of mountainous land, and a shop. Twenty acres of fertile land and shops are rent-collected. She has three thousand taels of surplus silver in her hand, including what she saved before, as well as what the old lady rewarded later, Li Cuihua and Zhang Gui's monthly examples, Zhang Gui's savings, etc.

Li Cuihua bought ten chickens and put them in the pig pen before Mr. Li, saying that Zhang Gui wanted to read books, and these were for him to make up. Mrs. Zhang is now looking forward to Zhang Guizhong's talent, and she is very attentive to these chickens, and she feeds them three meals a day.

Because the fields and shops were all rewarded by the Zhang family in the past, Li Cuihua thought, Zhang Ran and Mrs. Zhang will always think of it. Li Cuihua told Li Zhu about the fear in her heart, Li Zhu thought about it, and said that she would observe Zhang Ran first, and she didn't advocate talking to Zhang Ran now.

Li Cuihua took a sip.

The days passed in peace for a month.

On this day, the Li Zhu family ushered in the unpopular second sister Li Cuiqiao and his wife.

Early in the morning, when it was just time, Wu Jiajun and Li Cuiqiao hired a carriage to Li's house, and when they arrived at Li's house, Li Cuiqiao got out of the car and patted the courtyard door vigorously. Li Cuiqiao knew that going to Li Zhu's house now must be a closed-door stalk, and asked Li Zhu for help, and her father said that inviting Li Zhu was better than saying a hundred words by herself.

The courtyard of Li Zhu's house is surrounded by mountains, and the distance between the courtyard gate and the house is relatively far, and in the past, Qi Jiu went out to take care of the fields, only covering the courtyard door. After all, no one can hear the door.

Li Cuihua now sleeps in the former house of the Li Zhu family, which is closest to the courtyard gate.

Li Cuihua and his wife heard the knock on the door, thinking that something had happened to Li Zhu's family, Li Zhu came to call the door, Zhang Ran only put on a coat, and went out to open the door sleepily.

Zhang Ran opened the door and saw that it was Li Cuiqiao, with a strange expression. Li Cui happened to see the eldest brother-in-law who was not familiar with her, her face was slightly red, and she said politely: "Eldest brother-in-law, I'll come and see my father." ”

Zhang Ran thought in his heart, this selfish second sister, who has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, it seems that she can't go to the ground today, and she has to guard her, for fear that she will be a demon. Zhang Ran snorted, opened the door and went back to the room.

Li Cuiqiao saw that Zhang Ran's face was not very good, blushed, and said, "Brother-in-law, I didn't bring silver taels when I went out, can I help pay for the carriage." ”

Zhang Ran's face darkened after hearing this, and he entered the room without looking back, and said to Li Cuihua: "Your second sister is here, and she said that she didn't bring silver taels, so let me help pay for the carriage." ”

After Li Cuihua heard this, her face turned dark, and she said, "This white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, where is she going to do it when she comes?" ”

Zhang Ran sighed and said, "I'm not going out today, if there's anything I can help with, you come and call me." ”

Li Cuihua nodded, Zhang Ran took out five hundred yuan from the place where he put his clothes in the past, and said: "This is what I saved for helping people do short-term work in the past few days, I originally wanted to add you a jewelry when you celebrate your birthday, alas, you can take it to help settle the bill now, the carriage is parked at the door, it's not good-looking, isn't it?" ”

Li Cuihua narrowed her eyelids and lowered her head, unable to see her thoughts clearly.

She took the money and helped pay the wagon fare.

Wu Jiajun saw that someone had paid, lifted the curtain, nodded to Li Cuihua with a smile, and got out of the carriage and entered the house by himself.

Li Cuihua watched Wu Jiajun get out of the car, startled, and thought angrily: Who are these people, come to ask for people, and the car fare has to be paid.

Li Cui coincidentally entered Li's house and eagerly knocked on the door outside Old Man Li's house.

Li Yu was woken up by Li Cuiqiao's knock on the door, and when he saw Li Cuiqiao knocking on the door, he said with a little anger: "You can't be quiet, early in the morning, don't obey the etiquette at all." Don't teach the children in the house badly. You don't know that your father is old, you sleep lightly, you can sleep at night, you are noisy, your father has not come back yet, how can you be scared sick? You really don't know what you can do and what you can't do? Mrs. Xiucai? ”

Wu Jiajun heard Li Yu say that Li Cuiqiao was not polite, and indirectly said that he was not polite at home, glared at Li Cuiqiao fiercely, and said to Li Yu with a smile: "Big brother, Cui Qiao hasn't seen his father for a long time, and he is a little rude." ”

After Li Yu heard this, he frowned, glanced at Li Cuihua who entered the house behind him, and asked strangely, "Cuihua, where did you go early in the morning?" ”

Li Cuihua looked at the two people in front of her and said, "The second brother-in-law and the second sister came over, they didn't bring any money, I will pay for the carriage." ”

When Li Yu heard this, his face turned black. glared at Wu Jiajun, moved a wooden chair, took the bamboo and sat in the courtyard to weave a bamboo basket. It seems that Li Yu can't do anything today, and he has to guard the meaning of Li Cuiqiao and his wife.

After a cup of tea, Old Man Li dressed neatly, opened the door, and yelled at Li Cuiqiao: "What's wrong?" Early in the morning? ”

When Li Cuiqiao saw Old Man Li, she was full of words and cried like a broken heart: "Dad." ”

When Old Man Li saw this Li Cuiqiao, who often took things from home, he was not happy and said, "What's the matter?" What's wrong? ”

Li Cuiqiao cried: "Dad, Wu Jiajun said, thinking of the third brother and sister's father's academy teaching, if it doesn't work, he will carry a prostitute into the door for his wife." ”

When Old Man Li heard this, his face darkened.

Li Cuiqiao cried and said: "Dad, Wu Jiajun said that the prostitute has silver, and our family has an identity, so we want to help him." ”

Old Man Li was so angry that his eyes were bulging, and he pulled Li Cuiqiao to Li Zhu's house.

Li Yu and Li Cuihua happened to be in the courtyard, and when they heard Li Cuiqiao's crying, even if everyone didn't like this second sister, but the identity of the Li family made both of them have the same hatred for Wu Jiajun.

The two of them followed behind Old Man Li and Li Cuiqiao, and went to Li Zhu's house. Wu Jiajun seemed to have done something great, followed behind the Li family, and walked slowly to the Li family.

Li Zhu's yard occupies a large area, and he gets up early to run in his yard now.

When the people of the Li Zhu family saw that their masters all got up early to run, they also got up early to work. By this time the gate of their house had been opened.

Deng Shi saw Old Man Li pulling Li Cui to rush to the hall angrily in the kitchen, sighed in his heart, stroked his forehead, and saw that the eldest brother Li Yu and the eldest sister Li Cuihua also looked angry, which attracted her attention. Deng Shi came out of the kitchen and asked Li Cuihua, "Eldest sister, what's wrong?" ”

Li Cuihua indignantly learned what Li Cuiqiao said just now, without any additional fuel, just those few words made people very angry.

Deng Shi frowned after hearing this, Li Cuihua looked at Deng Shi's anger and his face turned black, and said apologetically: "Min, everyone knows this Wu Jiajun's personality, I know that you don't like it." Although the second sister is often muddy and lazy, how can it be our own family, broken bones and tendons, you should take care of it more. This must be taught in the academy, it is excessive, if it is recommended, we can still accept it. ”

Deng Shi suppressed his anger in his chest and flipped it a few times, his face did not show it, he just pursed his lips and said nothing. She asked Pei Qing to follow Li Zhu's daily running routes to call Li Zhu back.

Deng had no good impression of this second brother-in-law, but now listening to his threatening words, he was even more disgusted with him, and was extremely reluctant to recommend him to his father's academy to teach. She took advantage of the time to prepare water and cups to pass through the hall, and thought to herself how to refuse.

Old Man Li has two talented sons, how can he be a stupid person. This way has been rushing, and he has gone through dozens of methods in his mind. Now he actually has a heart for himself.

Old Man Li said to Deng: "Min, Zhu Run, let someone call Zhu back." ”

Deng nodded and said, "Pei Qing has been let go." ”

Old Man Li nodded, and Deng slowly handed the thin flour cake, eggs, and milk to Old Man Li and said, "The cow I bought a while ago has produced milk, Dad will taste it." ”

Cows are precious here, and milk is of course expensive.

Old Man Li saw that Deng gave him milk, knew that she was filial, and said with a smile: "Such a precious thing should be left to the children." If you want to read books and test people, give him this to drink. I'm an old man, and I don't have to spoil good things. ”

Deng smiled and said, "The children still have it." It's Daddy's. (To be continued.) )
