The chef can no longer do the cooking work he likes, but in less than a month, Chef Lu has aged more than ten years, and his former black hair has turned gray, what is more sad than being depressed?

Master Lu has no children and no daughters, and Li Yao took out a thousand taels to compensate him for him, but he didn't ask for it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He has also seen some of the world that a person like him should have, so at this time, he got a thousand taels of silver but he was not moved, but he just let Li Yao take the silver and dispose of it at will, as long as Li Yao can give him a place to live and retire.

Li Yao had no choice but to buy a homestead for Master Lu in Tunzi, build a small courtyard, and buy a small house, so that he could live the leisurely life of an old lady. But Master Lu can't live idle......

In June, the climate in the stone forest was not as hot as other places, but the temperature was very suitable, neither hot nor cold, and at this time, Li Yao began to put away the dishes, intending to cook dried vegetables.

Speaking of these days, the money Li Yao earned has not been as much as the governor has compensated her. Despite this, Li Yao was not discouraged at all. Earning money in a down-to-earth manner is actually a very fulfilling process, although she is tired, as long as the people around her treat her well, she is not afraid of being tired. In fact, she is a typical affectionate and well-watered personality, but she has encountered too many things, because she can't get it, so she has to disguise herself with a hard shell.

In June, Li Yao used the money she paid to buy good medicine for her mother-in-law to recuperate, bought maids and servants for her family, and then bought a shop to sell medicine and collect vegetables, in fact, this shop was just opened for Fu Jingheng.

Fu Jingheng is indeed talented in the imperial examination, even if Li Yao doesn't open a shop for him, he can earn money to buy a shop for himself, but it's just not as big as the shop that Li Yao gets more money for. Besides, he earned the silver in his hand, and he didn't take it himself, so he directly handed it over to Li Yao for safekeeping.

In less than July, Fu Jingheng earned 700 taels of silver just by selling the key points of the imperial examination books such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, as well as the current texts. Although the stone forest is located in a remote area, the desire of scholars to learn is not frustrated because of this, but is very high.

In order to be able to change from a farmer to a eunuch, those rich squires took great pains and spared no expense, not to mention the reputation of Fu Ge Lao.

Although Ji Chun was in power, those rich squires did not dare to openly support the Fu family, but secretly they were very supportive of the books carefully interpreted and marked by the descendants of the Fu family.

What's more, Liang Dahai, the deputy chief soldier of Shilin, actually wanted to ask Fu Jingheng to be his grandchild's husband. In addition to Fu Jingheng, Li Jimin was also invited. And because of the relationship between Li Yao and Na Risong, everyone felt that relatively speaking, it was safer and more appropriate to invite Li Jimin than to invite the Fu family.

For a time, the Fu family's private school, the Fu family, and the Li family were like a city, and even the gentry from the counties around Yuyan came here.

At this juncture, Li Jimin's mind was still alive again after all, and he wanted to open a academy, just like when he was in Yazhou. This kind-hearted, upright and honest old man may have dedicated his whole life to these words, for the country and the people, and after death, no matter whether he is down-and-out or beautiful.

In fact, it was the right time to open the academy at this time, after all, the local rich squires also had this idea, and the local magistrates and scholars also knew that if this could be done, it would also be one of their merits. Therefore, in this atmosphere, through the fundraising of local gentry and wealthy people and local officials, the Stone Forest Academy was officially opened.

Stone Forest Academy is located on the south side of Changxingling, backed by mountains and rivers, the initial planning covers an area of 30 acres, due to sufficient funds, less than the end of July, 30 school buildings have been built. Since then, Master Fu's private school has also been incorporated into the Stone Forest Academy.

During this period, an interesting thing happened, that is, the monk Fuyu came out at the groundbreaking ceremony of the Stone Forest Academy, raised nearly 3,000 taels of donations, and then chose to build a monk temple on the Changxing Ridge near the Stone Forest Academy.

The old lady Fu donated 300 taels of these 3,000 taels, just because the monk Fuyu said: "The living conditions of the local tribal herdsmen are backward, and they believe in shamanic witch doctors, which causes the tribal herdsmen to be sick and incurable, and only dance the great gods, so how many lives are lost in vain." The poor monks didn't care what they believed, but they couldn't watch them go on like this. Therefore, the poor monks should heal and preach in this place, and healing is the first priority, and preaching is by the way. ”

In fact, donating money is not much, Mrs. Fu is also benevolent and kind-hearted, and Li Yao does not stop her from doing this. If they can donate more, they are also willing, but the two thousand taels in Li Yao's hand are too much, but in fact, there is not much left in his hand after treating the Da Gu family, buying a shop and donating to the academy.

Until entering July, although everyone was busy, they were happy in their hearts, of course, there were occasional unpleasant things, such as the Fu family's second and third rooms did not get the shop because of the lack of money, and complained that the big house did not help them, for example, Mrs. Li always wanted to trouble Li Yao because Li Yao was bent on her mother-in-law's house and did not care about her mother's life or death.

In fact, Mrs. Li just didn't have any money in her hand, so she was so aggrieved.

Because Li Yao felt that she neglected her family, she was very good to both her in-laws and her mother's family. It's just that she doesn't give Mrs. Li silver, but works food and clothing. For example, every day, the meals at home are made by the restaurant and delivered directly, such as the clothes and shoes of Li Jimin and Han's family are made by her at her expense. Her mother's family is like this, and so is her mother-in-law's family, and as for the others, she doesn't care about their life or death at all.

"What is this?" On this day, as soon as the lunch got up, Chunhua coiled Li Yao's hair and went out. Li Yao is actually used to having no one around to serve her on weekdays, but she is used to being given it by others. And Mrs. Fu went to Ji's house to sit idle, and Fu Jingjue was taken to the Da Gu family's house. So there was no one in the house. So Fu Jingheng took out the things he bought when he came back from the county seat yesterday. He came home last night. The box was not opened, and I didn't know what was inside, so Li Yao asked.

Although Fu Jingheng opened a pharmacy, the local medicinal materials could not meet the needs of the medicine, so he still needed to go to the pharmacy in the county seat for a while to buy medicinal materials.

"You open it and take a look. Grandmothers and mothers have them, and you don't have to think about them. Fu Jingheng felt that being with Li Yao was the most lively time in his life in the past ten years. The two almost talked about everything, and Li Yao didn't hide anything from him, so he naturally did the same. He likes it.

Li Yao sat there looking at the bronze mirror, and Fu Jingheng bent over and stood behind her, his posture was like he was holding her in his arms. At this time, he was also looking at the bronze mirror. The two looked at each other in the mirror, and Fu Jingheng had a smile in his eyes.

Infected by him, Li Yao also laughed, and the pear vortex on her mouth was also revealed along with her smile.

If the wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk, and if the flowers are not charming, everyone is obsessed with themselves, Fu Jingheng likes to see her laugh.

Holding her breath and gently opening the box, Li Yao saw a pair of silver earrings, and on the pendant fell a gruny Dongzhu the size of a mountain thorn rose and a pomegranate seed. She picked up the earrings and looked at them for a while, then looked at Fu Jingheng and asked, "Are there earrings like this in the jewelry store?" ”

"Do you like it?" Fu Jingheng didn't say that these earrings were specially ordered by him. He said in his heart: The thorn roses on the mountain of Changxingling are blooming, and the little wife has to talk about picking flowers and boiling mountain thorn rose sauce every day. A few days ago, I followed him up the mountain, when the mountain thorn rose was just bearing flower bones, and the little wife also lingered there, and said that the flowers must be a grand scene, and they must go there to enjoy the flowers.
