Chapter 267: Back Mountain
This is very bad for Li Hui, and he wants someone to go out to investigate, but after thinking about it again, this is no longer the old Beijing, and they don't live in the Li family, where are they going to investigate?
He was in a hurry, and there were a few big bubbles at the corners of his mouth, Xiu'er was as anxious as him, but he couldn't stand Wanchun's stable temperament, and he calmed her down in a few words. That day, the two went to the back mountain, and saw that there was a large piece of land vacant on the back mountain, and it was a pity to put it in vain, so Wanchun pondered that it would be good to plant something.
It's just that the spring sowing has passed, and the summer sowing has not yet arrived, and the grain and vegetables are not the ones that should be planted in the season.
She opened the book and looked at it, so she asked people to go out and buy some seedlings of honeysuckle, raw land, and wolfberry, which are all herbs suitable for planting in April, and if the weather is too hot after May Day, it will not be conducive to survival.
When the seedlings were bought, there was no need to use others, only she and Xiu'er, with hoes and sickles, went to the back mountain to clean up a neat field, and planted honeysuckle, raw land and wolfberry in sections.
Xiu'er questioned Wanchun's ability to farm at first, but later, seeing her familiar appearance, she became curious and asked her where she learned such skills.
Wanchun couldn't say that she learned it when she was a daughter-in-law in the Lu family, so she snorted and said that she learned it in medical school, so she sent Xiu'er over. Since the two of them have lived an idyllic life, they run to the back mountain three times a day to take care of the herbs, where do they still care if Rong Shaotang comes or not.
Early this morning, Wanchun got up early in the morning with Xiu'er to see the new seedlings. Not long after they didn't want them to go to Houshan, someone from the Rong family came.
It was not Rong Shaotang, but Yang Yurong took Young Master Sun Rong Jiayi and Fang Hongying Lin Keru to the Yulan Mountain House.
They said that they had fallen when they went up the mountain to worship incense, and they came to ask for a glass of water to drink, and Li Hui was not good at sending them away, so he hurriedly led a few of them to the house to sit, and ordered someone to serve tea and snacks.
Although this magnolia mountain house has been built for twenty or thirty years, it does not look old because it has always been taken care of, but because it has been renovated from time to time, it has become more and more elegant and magnificent. Before, this has always been a holy place for Rong Guojun to cool off, but later, as Rong Guojun got older and couldn't walk on these many mountain roads, the Magnolia Mountain House was vacant for a while. As Miss Rong Jiajiu grew older, she loved the topography and environment of this mountain house, and often came to stay for a few days during the winter and summer vacations.
As for the rest of the Rong family, except for the fact that they came to greet Rong Guojun a few times in the early years, in order to avoid the displeasure of Miss Nine in the past two years, no one has come here to be bored. Now that the mountain house was given to Wanchun, everyone moved to take a look around.
Yang Yurong is not lying when she goes to pay homage to Xiangyuan today, most of the daughters of the Rong family are southerners, and the old lady Xu is a person who believes in Buddhism, and she has always been pious, and the nunnery on the top of the mountain is what she paid for to build and invite the Buddha. Today is the fourth day of the fourth lunar month, Manjushri Bodhisattva's birthday, because Xu recently suffered from a leg disease, it is difficult to walk, so the granddaughter-in-law of the chief of the long house went to the mountain to worship the Buddha and worship incense for her.
Fang Hongying is idle at home, and she will naturally come with her, besides, if she wants to go to the mountain to worship incense, she will inevitably pass by the Yulan Mountain House, she has heard a lot of gossip about the Yulan Mountain House in the past two days, and she is also thinking about coming to inquire in person to see if Rong Shaotang is really as others say, and has already moved to the headquarters of the military region to live.
She tried her best to see Wanchun's jokes, and when Keru was also giving Chiayi a make-up lesson at Rong's house, she was dragged out, and several people took a car, first went to the nunnery to make incense, and when she returned, she heard Fang Hongying say that she wanted to go to the Yulan Mountain House to sit down, drink tea and rest, and then see how Wanchun and his wife were doing.
Yang Yurong saw that Lin Keru was still there, afraid that she would be embarrassed, so she shirked and went another day, but Fang Hongying had already made up her mind, and she shouted that she was hungry and thirsty, Yang Yurong couldn't resist it, so she had to order the car to stop at the Yulan Mountain House.
At one time, everyone entered the house, and saw that all the rooms were newly decorated, and the servants and servants of the house were also in order.
Rao is Yang Yurong has followed her mother-in-law and the old lady to run the family for many years, and I have to say that Wanchun, as the hostess, is still very qualified.
Fang Hongying was a little unconvinced, took a sip of tea, looked left and right, Li Hui was still close to accompany him, and he didn't see the male and female hosts, so he couldn't help but ask him: "What about the sixth young master and the sixth young grandmother?" ”
Li Hui bowed and said, "The sixth young master and the sixth young grandmother went to the back mountain early in the morning, and they haven't come back yet." ”
"Yo, what are you doing in the back mountains in this weather?" Seeing that summer is about to begin, many places on the back mountain are bare, and there is not even a cool place, why should they go?
Fang Hongying was very curious, Li Hui smiled, and replied after consideration: "It's a pity that there is a place in the back mountain that is barren, the sixth young master and the sixth young grandmother go and see if they can ask someone to plant something on it, it looks good and is not wasted." He was embarrassed to say where Wanchun and Xiu'er planted herbs, they were all young grandmothers in the house, you see other young grandmothers enjoying the fine clothes and food, and she is looking for guilt, doesn't it make people see jokes. And the fact that Rong Shaotang does not live here must not be told to the Rong family, not to mention that these few people in front of them are not completely Rong family, and there are many things that are not harmonious between the concubines, who know that they will not use this matter as a joke after they go home, and spread it?
Therefore, he lied and hid it.
It's just that he didn't expect that Fang Hongying was not the kind of person who was easy to bully, she came with questions, so she naturally had to finish solving her doubts before leaving, and heard that Rong Shaotang and Wanchun were both in the back mountain, so she stood up and smiled at Yang Yurong and Lin Keru and said: "Let's go, let's also go and see what their farmers and peasant women are talking about." As he spoke, he took Lin Keru's hand.
Lin Keru felt a little embarrassed when he entered the door, and when he heard that other husbands and wives were enjoying the joy of the countryside together, of course he didn't want to be unhappy, so he shirked two sentences: "I'm tired of walking, I want to rest for a while, so you should go with Sister Yurong." ”
Fang Hongying retracted her hand and smiled: "Don't worry, it's still early, you're tired?" I finally saw the sixth young master and the sixth young grandmother, and then came back to rest. ”
She expected that Rong Shaotang would not be in the mountain house, so she dared to pull Lin Keru forward. Lin Keru was helpless, and felt that he had to shirk it again, but it seemed that he had a ghost in his heart, so he got up and took Chiayi's little hand, accompanied Yang Yurong, and went to the back mountain together.
