Li Zhu smiled and nodded after hearing this. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a while, a group of people returned to Lijia Village, and from a distance, they saw Li Tian standing at the entrance of the village, and Li Tian saw Li Zhu running over and said, "Third uncle, I'll be waiting for you for a while." After hearing this, Li Zhu hurriedly asked, "Is there something wrong at home?" ”

Li Tian shook his head with a smile and said, "It's nothing, my brother and I dug up some bamboo shoots and came back today, I have already cooked rice, let's come over and eat together." Li Zhu nodded with a smile, and Deng said to Li Tian with a smile: "Next time, you don't need to wait for us to come back, you eat first, and leave some for us is the same." Li Tian smiled and didn't say anything.

When Hamahama heard the bamboo shoots, he remembered the sweet and sour bamboo shoots, and asked, "Brother Tian, are there a lot of bamboo shoots?" ”

Li Tian honestly touched his head and said, "Now many people are digging bamboo shoots, and we also happen to have two big roots today." ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu continued: "Indeed, there are many hungry people now, and everyone can't touch anything in other villages. Li Tian nodded with deep feelings.

Li Tian looked at the people in the car and asked, "Third uncle, I heard my father say that you went to the town to buy people to help with the work, didn't you?" Li Zhu looked at Li Tian and nodded strangely.

Li Tian thought for a while, and continued embarrassedly: "Third uncle, I heard from others in the school yesterday that Shen Ping's father wanted to sell him because there were many boys in the family. Shen Ping works very well on weekdays, he is also diligent, and he is okay at reading, you see. ”

Li Zhu shook his head after hearing this, and said, "Tian'er, no matter how good Ping'er is, it is impossible for the third uncle to buy him, everyone knows the roots." The Shen family's family background is actually not bad, but his father is not a person who likes to do things, and life is getting by. We're close, and his father will definitely come over to fix some things in the future, and we can't do it knowing that. How can you make a mistake for yourself? ”

Li Tian's eyes darkened after hearing this, he looked at Li Zhu, gritted his teeth and said: "Third uncle, you read a lot of books, I listen to you, I still want my father to persuade you to buy Shen Ping's." Li Zhu continued: "You haven't told your father about this yet. Your dad must have disagreed. ”

Li Tian looked at Li Zhu strangely, and Li Zhu said with a smile: "Big brother hates those who are lazy the most, and Shen Ping's father is one." Li Tian smiled after hearing this, and felt a little lost at the thought of separating from his little friend.

After returning home, Li Zhu smiled and introduced Old Man Shang's grandson and Qi Jiu to the people in the family, Old Man Li looked at Shang Lao, looked at Shang Zuo, sighed, quietly pulled Li Hongshen to one place, and asked, "Big brother, this old and young, how can you let Li Zhu buy like this?" ”

Li Hong sighed deeply and said helplessly: "Deng Juren didn't say anything, what can I say." Old Man Li sighed again and didn't say anything more.

Li Zhang Luo opened the meal, Li Zhu told Shang Lao and Qi Jiu about the family, arranged for them to live, and then let them eat with everyone. Shang Lao and Qi Jiuben hesitated, Li Zhu waved his hand and said: "It's nothing, we are not a big official's house, we have to waste some tables, bowls or something to eat together, everyone eats together." Old Man Shang and Qi Jiu all nodded after hearing this, everyone was originally from a peasant family, and they didn't have any sense of slavery, so they all sat down politely and ate directly.

After eating, Li Zhu took out a set of his own clothes and handed it to Qi Jiudao: "Brother Jiu, we didn't buy new clothes for you, you and I are about the same height, this is my clothes, can you see if you can wear them?" ”

Qi Jiu took the clothes and said with a smile: "Thank you, master." Li Zhu was embarrassed after hearing this, and said, "Don't call me master in the future, it sounds weird, you can call me Li Zhu." I didn't sign that deed of sale with you. ”

When Qi Jiu heard this, he said nervously: "I was going to sell myself at that time, and the master has already paid the introduction fee, so this deed of sale should be signed." After hearing this, Li Zhu smiled and said, "I'm not nervous, but you are nervous." ”

Qi Jiu looked at Li Zhu's eyes and said, "I, Qi Jiu, am a man who is a promise, and if I say that I sell it, I will sell it." Don't go back on your word. Li Zhu was stunned after hearing this, nodded, and said, "Okay, Ming'er will go to the town with you again." Qi Jiu laughed when he heard this.

Binbin saw that the Deng family helped Shang Lao Sun and Qi Jiu clean up the firewood room, and moved some quilts inside, and said to Shang Lao Sun and Qi Jiu with a smile: "You guys live together for a while, and I'll go borrow some clothes for Shang Lao and Shang Zuo." "Old man Shang couldn't stop thanking him after hearing it.

Shang Zuo and Li Tian were about the same height, and Deng borrowed Li Tian's clothes from Li Shi. In the present, some of the older children's old clothes will not be discarded, and will be left to the brothers below, Deng knows the value of these old clothes, and knows that this clothes must be returned if they are borrowed.

Li Shi listened to Deng's words and said with a smile: "It's okay, take it and wear it for Shang Zuo." I can't tell him that he has won the show, so let's borrow the wind. Deng smiled after hearing this, and said, "This yard is still a yard." "Li Shi didn't feel at ease.

After Deng borrowed Shang Zuo's clothes, he borrowed another one from Old Man Li, Old Man Li sighed, nodded, and said while taking the clothes to Deng's: "Min'er, your family is literate, and I won't elaborate on the big reason with you." Dad must say that you are nothing, but Dad has eaten more than you for a few years, and there are some things that you should listen to other people's opinions. ”

After hearing this, Deng nodded and said with a smile: "Dad, I know you think we shouldn't have signed that long-term labor agreement with Shang Lao and invited Shang Lao back this time." But Shang Lao will raise horses. The little red horse is not an ordinary pony at first glance. If none of our family can raise horses seriously, what if something happens to the little red horse in the future? And the old man will raise horses, and other things should also be raised, and most of our family's current sources are livestock, and it is good to have one. ”

Old Man Li sighed while handing the clothes to the Deng family: "You scholars think about more things, so you can fix it as you want." Deng nodded with a smile, thanked Old Man Li, took the clothes to Shang Lao, taught Shang Zuo what to pay attention to when boiling water and bathing, and then asked the children to wash first, and then Zhang Luo Shang and Qi Jiu washed.

Qi Jiu saw that the Deng family was busy, and hurriedly snatched the work in his hand, and said, "Madam, let me come." How bothering you, I was supposed to come just now, but I didn't know how to fix it just now, but now it's time to see it. ”

Deng Shi was stunned after hearing this, was shocked for a while, and said with a smile after reacting: "You have seen it just now, you can get it yourself." Qi Jiu nodded and prepared washing water for himself and the old man Shang. After reading it once, Deng went back to the room with confidence.

Li Zhu saw Deng enter, bowed to him with a smile, and said, "The lady is hard. Deng Shi looked at Li Zhu's appearance, blushed and said, "You just laugh at me." ”

Li Zhu pulled Deng Shi and said, "Min'er, I'm real." Deng Shi looked at Li Zhu, then at the children, smiled, pursed his lips, smiled, and the two of them went to sleep.

On the second day, early in the morning, Li Zhu gave Qi Jiu eight taels of silver, and then drove the ox cart to the town again, intending to apply for a deed of sale with Qi Jiu.

Deng told Li Hai and Deng Chi to guard the door, and then took Shang Lao and Shang Zuo to see the family's livestock.

Shang Lao and Shang Zuo were surprised when they saw the red horse and the peerless red rabbit horse, but Shang Lao and Shang Zuo hurriedly showed Deng that they were willing to sell themselves for fifty years, or even longer, which startled Deng Shi.

How can those who get red rabbits be ordinary people. Others may not know, but the old Shang family has been dealing with horses all their lives and knows more about this, which also makes the two grandchildren determined to follow their way.

Because the livestock of the Li Zhu family are now fed by the uncle Li Hongshen. Deng took the old man and grandson over to help and asked the uncle to teach them some specific things that need attention. Deng helped Aunt Sun prepare chicken food.

Shang Lao had his own set of feeding methods, and when feeding other livestock, he had some discussions with his uncle, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became, and the more they talked, the more energetic they became. Deng Shi saw that there was nothing to do with him, so he went to the vegetable field to tidy up, Shang Zuo offered to help, Deng Shi stopped with a smile, and said, "Your grandfather wants you to take the Xiucai exam, you go home and read the book with Li Hai." ”

Shang Zuo thought for a while and said, "I will follow your family in the future, and if the deed of sale is signed, I will not be able to take the Xiucai exam." Deng smiled and said, "As long as we can pay the wages, you can do it in our house for as long as you want, I am very happy." I have already said before, if you don't sign the deed of sale, you won't sign it, and you won't agree to cut off your future career. ”

Shang Zuo lowered his head and thought about it after hearing this, nodded vigorously, and then turned around and went back to Li's house. After reading it, Deng thought that he had broken his mind of being a slave, and he also laughed.

Shang Zuo returned to Li's house and saw that everyone was reading, thinking that the four-year-old child should be able to understand the books he read, so he picked up a book and read it. After looking at it, I realized that many of them were incomprehensible to me.

Hama has been looking at Shang Zuo with a pair of eyes since Shang Zuo started, and when he saw his aggrieved expression, he laughed.

Deng Chi heard Binbin laugh and looked at Shang Zuo, unhappy, but his face did not show it.

Lehi heard Hamahama laughing, looked at Shang Zuo, and asked, "Brother Shang, what book have you read?" Shang Zuo saw that Li Hai was holding a book with many rare characters that he had never read, and he didn't dare to underestimate it, so he straightened his chest and reported the book he had read, which was nothing more than the Four Books and Five Classics.

Hamahama squinted his eyes as he looked at Shang Sao's cuteness. Lehi listened to the Four Books and the Five Classics and asked, "Have you memorized all the books you have read?" ”

Shang Zuo said in surprise: "In our previous school, I was the first to read these books, how could I finish memorizing them so quickly?" ”

After hearing this, Deng Chi "cut" and said disapprerovitously: "Of those books, I still have two more to memorize." Lehi had already memorized it. When Shang Zuo heard this, his face turned red, and the roots of his ears turned red. (To be continued.) )
