Chapter 288: Red Beans

Yang Yun stepped forward and took her grandmother's hand and said, "Grandma, what's wrong with you, but you're not feeling well." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Grandma shook her head and said, "I'm fine, just now Xiaobao's mother came to sit for a while, she said, ......" Grandma paused and said again: "Xiaobao's mother, said that her family wants to grow burdock cabbage, and asked our family if we can leave some seeds for her." ”

After listening to grandma's words, the family had different faces. What should come will always come, and it is a matter of time before burdock is remembered, but I didn't expect that the first person to say anything about planting burdock will be Uncle Li's family.

The room was so quiet that there was only the sound of breathing, and after a long while, I heard my grandfather say, "Plant it." What a simple two words, but they contain too much meaning in them. Grandpa made a decision, the family went their separate ways, and Yang Yun and Qianxue went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Uncle Li has bought a lot of land since last year, and he also bought ten acres of land on the side of Zuoshan, all of which is just about piercing that layer of paper. Yang Yun had already been mentally prepared, and her grandmother's words did not surprise her. Uncle Li asked Dabao and Xiaobao to take the imperial examination, but his family really needed silver. It's one thing to just know one thing, it's another thing to face it, the world is impermanent, and the two families have supported each other until now, and some things have quietly changed.

After that day, no one in the family mentioned this matter again, and after collecting burdock seeds, Yang Yun directly asked Dabao to carry a bag home. This year, the Li family is also going to plant burdock vegetables, Yang Yun has other plans, and after she found Dr. Xu, she told her grandfather her plans.

"Grandpa, let's stop planting burdock cabbage after digging this year, and keep it for next spring." Yang Yun helped her grandfather make a cup of tea, and by the way, she talked about planting burdock vegetables.

Grandpa asked Yang Yun puzzled: "Why is this, it's not planted well." ”

Yang Yun said: "In addition, this year, our family has been planting burdock for two years, burdock has relatively high requirements for soil quality, let's plant other crops this year to fertilize the land." ”

Grandpa took a big sip of tea before saying, "Then there is no need to say that you don't plant, planting some beans like last year can also fertilize the land." "Burdock made a lot of money last year, and grandpa felt that it was a pity not to grow it.

"Grandpa, I still plant beans this year, but I have discussed with Grandpa Xu, let's change to burdock cabbage for spring planting and autumn harvest. The yield of burdock grown in this season will be higher, and the demand for medicinal herbs will increase in winter. Maybe the burdock cabbage we harvest in autumn can be sold at a better price. Yang Yun explained carefully to her grandfather.

As soon as Grandpa heard that he had discussed it with Uncle Xu, he nodded and said, "That's it, since your Grandpa Xu agreed, then do what you want." After all, Grandpa didn't know much about the growth habits of medicinal herbs, and Dr. Xu had already agreed, so he naturally didn't object to Yang Yun's request.

After harvesting the burdock cabbage, midsummer came, and the family finally stopped to rest. The days are too busy, but it also dilutes Yang Yun's thoughts about Yu Haochen. In the past, Yang Yun would ask Qianxue every day, if Yu Haochen had a reply, in the face of Qianxue shaking her head countless times, Yang Yun turned from expectation to disappointment, she hadn't asked about Yu Haochen for a long time.

Yang Yun's changes made Qianxue uneasy and anxious, she sent many letters to Nanxian, but the reply from Nanxian was still that the master did not reply. Qianxue prayed in her heart that her master would reply quickly, otherwise Miss Yang would forget about him.

Qianxue tried several times to mention her master in front of Yang Yun, but Yang Yun diverted the topic. Yang Yun began to run away from everything in Yu Haochen's heart, and no one could understand the hesitation and uneasiness in her heart. In modern times, you can still rely on developed communication methods to communicate, but in this era of transportation and its inconvenience, Yu Haochen has been dead or alive in the past six months, where are others now, Yang Yun has no way of knowing, how far can the love between the two places go? This question has wandered in Yang Yun's heart countless times, but there is still no answer.

Early this morning, Yang Yun habitually ran to the backyard to water the flowers, in a corner of the backyard, there were flowers planted by Yang Yun herself, the potted plant was blooming with pink flowers, it was the only pot of flowers in the entire backyard, it was a little lonely was placed in the corner, it was a little out of place with the green fruits and vegetables in this yard.

Cool and clear water, slowly and gently sprinkled on the pink flowers, listening to the ticking sound of the water dripping on the petals of the flowers, Yang Yun became a little sad. In spring, Yang Yun planted a red bean in a flower pot, and now this red bean has bloomed pink flowers, and the flower is blooming with vigor and brilliance under the care of the sun.

And Yang Yun's heart at the moment is diametrically opposed to the brilliant flowers. "Haochen, where are you now? The red beans I planted have already bloomed, and when the red beans bear fruit, will you appear? Yang Yun muttered to herself at the flowering red bean.

Two days later, the three Yang Yun brothers and sisters discussed with their grandfather about expanding their home. Grandpa fell silent after hearing this, Yang Yun carefully observed grandpa for a long time, and found that grandpa was not silent at all, but his thoughts didn't know where to go, because grandpa kept staring at the teacup in his hand, but his eyes didn't turn for half a minute. The three Yang Yong brothers and sisters glanced at each other a few times, and none of them dared to interrupt their grandfather's musings first.

After a long time, Grandma broke the silence first. She looked at the three children in front of her and said to her grandfather: "Old man, I think the children's proposal is very good, after all, the children have grown up, and it is really not suitable to squeeze another room." Our Xiaoyong has also reached the age of starting a family, let's listen to the children. ”

Grandpa finally came back to his senses when he heard Grandma's words, and he raised his somewhat deep, somewhat cloudy eyes and looked at the three grandchildren in front of him who had quietly grown up. Grandpa sighed softly and said, "Then let's expand." ”

Seeing that the grandfather agreed, the family discussed the expansion of the new house and the temporary relocation. Except for the original rabbit house, the other houses had to be demolished and rebuilt, and the houses were built into blue brick and rubble houses for expansion. After the family discussed, the grandfather asked someone to watch the days, and the family temporarily moved to the Yang family farm to live, where there were still three empty houses.

The villagers knew that the Yang family was going to move, so they came to help, and it took an hour to move all the things to the farm. The green fruits and vegetables in the backyard are picked when they are ripe, and those that are not ripe can be transplanted to the farm, and those that cannot be transplanted can only be removed. The 1,000 taels of silver that had been buried in the utility room were dug up by Grandpa the day before they moved, and they were sent to the farm early the next day. Yang Yun looked at the box of silver and wanted to exchange the silver for gold, which was small and easy to hide.

After the family moved to the farm, the new house was built. It is convenient to live and work on the farm, but Yang Xuan and Yang Yun are a little far away from the village, but it will only be in the next few months, and when the new house is built, the family will move back.

After Yang Yun and Yang Yong counted the silver money at home, they drew out another 500 taels of silver, plus the box of silver earlier, a total of 1,500 taels. The silver was carried to the town's money village and exchanged for gold, looking at the 150 taels of gold, Yang Yun's eyes sparkled. It's been four years, and the Yang family has finally saved gold.

But when Yang Yun remembered the 10 taels of handling fees charged for exchanging silver, she was distressed. If these 10 taels of silver had been placed in the past, it would have been the living expenses of the family for several years. Not only Yang Yun was distressed, but Yang Yong's painful expression was more exaggerated than Yang Yun, only his grandfather's dark face did not have much expression.

150 taels of gold, Yang Yun found an iron box and put it with a lock, and then carefully hid it. In order to prevent everyone from suffering from heat stroke, the Yang family asked the craftsmen who did the work to rest for an hour and a half at noon before starting to work.

The sake brewery built by the villagers is also nearing completion, and although it has been much slower than expected, it is finally about to be completed, and this year's newly made plum wine has been stored in the cellar early. Many things are going smoothly, and every villager has a happy smile on their faces, only Yang Yun's smile is getting less and less. Because of the people she misses in her heart, there is still no news.

In the early morning, the cheerful sound of birds and the cheerful sound of cicadas compose a moving song in the sky above the farm. But such a beautiful singing voice can't flow into a person's heart.

Yang Xuan stood in front of the farm house in the morning, he observed her sister for a long time, he was very curious why his sister stood in front of a pot of flowers in a daze, and poured the pot of flowers with water. In order to save the pot of flowers that were about to water Yang Yun to death, he had to tug the corner of Yang Yun's clothes and remind her, "Sister, sister, you are about to water the flowers to death." ”

"Ah, it's over! Finished! Yang Yun came back to her senses and saw that the water had not passed the surface of the flower pot, so she quickly pushed the flower pot and tilted it up to dredge out the excess water in the flower pot.

"Sister, why did you plant red beans in a flower pot? We don't have a lot of red bean seeds in our field. Yang Xuan didn't understand why his sister planted red beans in flower pots, and when she moved, her sister held the flower pot to prevent others from touching it.

"Well, that ......, I'll observe the growth period of red beans and see if I can make it increase the yield." Yang Yun didn't expect Yang Xuan to notice this red bean, she made an excuse indiscriminately.

"Oh, I see, then I'll help my sister take care of this red bean in the future." Yang Yun was right to do everything in Yang Xuan's heart, and as soon as he heard Yang Yun's explanation, he wanted to help his sister.

Yang Yun gently touched Yang Xuan's head and said, "Hehe, no need, I can take care of this red bean by myself, Xiao Xuan will be very happy as long as he eats well and studies well." In Yang Yun's heart, she hopes that this red bean can blossom and bear fruit under her care. She also somewhat expected that her love could be like this red bean, although the person she was waiting for did not appear for a long time.

Yang Xuan nodded and said, "Then I'll listen to my sister, but my sister also needs to eat more, you have lost weight recently." After being trained by Yang Yun that time, Yang Xuan's temperament became much more introverted and sensible, and he began to learn to respect the wishes of others.

"I will." Looking at Yang Xuan, who had grown his hair in front of him and grew tall to his chest, Yang Yun was full of emotion in his heart. The shy little bean who used to hold his thighs has now become a big boy.

Yang Yun did lose weight, in addition to the bitter summer, more because the thoughts were too heavy. (To be continued.) )
