Chapter 49: Refusal

Shubai hugged his younger brother, took his sister, and looked at the Wang family indifferently, "My grandson went to ask the doctor to come to see my grandfather, why, don't you want to?" ”

Wang opened his mouth, speechless, can he say that the old man is not sick and does not need to see a doctor? No! She could only watch as the three of them walked towards the door step by step.

At this moment, Mo Laoxiu shouted to the old woman in the house, Wang was like a pardon, his little feet were lifted, and he promised loudly to rush into the house, Shubai thought something was wrong, and also led his younger siblings into the house, but saw the old man wearing homely clothes crooked on the kang table, although the spirit looked bad, but it did not look like he was seriously ill.

Shubai secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Grandfather, just now Mei Niang passed the word that you are not good, and my grandson will go and ask the doctor to come."

"No need." Mo Laoxiu was weak, his eyelids rolled, and his gloomy gaze crossed over the three grandchildren, the youngest was still an ignorant child, and the two eldest ones were looking at him indifferently, and they could no longer find the little family spirit that was too scared to look at him before.

"You have worked hard all your life, and at this age, it is better to pay attention."

Shubai's words were so harsh when he heard Lao Xiucai's ears, this is ironic that he is old? Lao Xiucai suddenly straightened his chest and roared angrily: "If you say you don't need to look at it, you don't need to watch it, what are you talking about!" Can't understand people, do you? Get out! ”

Shubai felt the trembling of his younger siblings, and his heart was also angry, he didn't say a word and led people away, Xiao Wang and Mei Niang stood in the courtyard, their faces full of schadenfreude, Shubai led his younger siblings around them, didn't even look at them, and went straight home out of the door of the second room.

He Liansheng was guarding outside the door of the Mo family, the light green straight jacket was coated with a layer of golden light by the sun, and he was as tall as a beautiful bamboo, but his face was a little haggard, and a pair of dim peach blossom eyes suddenly radiated when he saw the Shubai brothers and sisters.

"Senior Brother Shubai, Li Niang, Brother Qingyuan." He Liansheng called everyone again, smiling and polite, but the three brothers and sisters were not in a very happy mood and were in no mood to deal with him.

Shubai stepped forward in a loud voice, "Something?" ”

With an expression of saying something quickly and leaving quickly, He Liansheng's fiery heart and liver suddenly became half cold, his smile froze on his face, and he blinked his eyes before saying: "It's about private school, at the beginning, Liansheng was also to catch ducks on the shelves, and he had to do it as a last resort, and now the senior brother is already very good, it's better to ......"

"Mo's private school will not be reopened." Shubai didn't wait for He Liansheng to finish speaking before he expressed his meaning, "The teaching of Mengtong in the village depends on you Liansheng." ”

He Liansheng blinked his eyes again, his peach blossom eyes were confused, Mo Shubai didn't teach, what did he use to support his two younger siblings? The Jinshui River is almost dry, is he still stupidly counting on fishing for a living?

However, no matter how He Liansheng persuaded him, Shubai always had two answers, one was not to open a private school, and the other was not to teach, he was going to participate in the imperial examination two years later, he had to study at home, and he had to take care of his younger brothers and sisters.

He Liansheng left dejectedly, today was really not smooth, how could the truth be so different from what he imagined? and Li Niang, who didn't say a word to him from beginning to end, was it wrong when he came?

Oh, it's possible, Mo Lao Xiucai's old thing is not a good stubble, poor Li Niang must have suffered, he will come over tomorrow to comfort and comfort the poor girl.

Shubai gave Qingyuan today's 100 big-character tasks, then changed his old clothes, and wanted to take tools to go up the mountain to chop wood.

Li Niang said: "Brother, I'll go chop wood, and you study at home." ”

"I don't need you, you have little arms and legs, and you won't grow any longer if you are tired." Shubai said that he found a whetstone to sharpen the wood knife, and suddenly he remembered something, and ran to the study and groped for a worm leg, on which he had already installed a wooden handle, and those who did not know would think it was this sickle.

Shubai said: "With this worm sickle, it doesn't take much effort to chop wood, my brother will come back in a while, and if you are tired, you can rest assured that you are at home and watch the house." ”

Li Niang's heart was itching, she also wanted to try the power of this worm sickle, but she begged again and again, and her brother did not allow her to go with her, saying that housekeeping is also very important, don't forget that there is a sorghum field worth a thousand taels in the back.

Speaking of sorghum, Li Niang is not angry, this is a big deal, it is really sloppy, she has to take care of it before harvesting.

After the brother left, Li Niang mixed bran to feed the chickens, these twenty chicks grew very fast, and they could be compared with the two-month-old chicks of Li Daniu's family, and yesterday Jiang helped to see it, Li Niang was very lucky, this batch of chicks can produce sixteen hens, which means that in two months, there will be endless eggs at home.

Because the family of cultivation and reading can't do business, there are not many ways to make money, Li Niang has hollowed out her mind to open up sources and reduce expenditure, and she already has a big plan in her heart, in addition to buying land and farming, this breeding industry must also develop, supported by heavenly water, and the plague that others are worried about is not a matter for her.

After feeding the chickens, Li Niang wore a straw hat to the backyard, because of the watering of the heavenly court, the weeds in the vegetable garden grew very fast, and the two ends had to be hoeed again in three days, and the two cucumbers and beans began to climb the vines again, and the shelves had to be set up next night.

After hoeing the grass, Li Niang wiped her sweat and stood in front of the sorghum field, the heavy ears were white flowers in her eyes, the sorghum in the heavenly court grew very thick, more than three meters high, because the seedlings grew densely, but in addition to the margin, there were not many weeds in it, probably the fertility was taken away by the sorghum, and the grass could not grow due to the lack of sunlight.

Li Niang smelled the sweet smell, looked at the thick sorghum stalk drooling, after the owner came back, she honestly told herself that she found a sorghum tree behind the wooden house and brought the nether, the owner did not blame her, and told her that it was called sweet sorghum, which was infinitely useful, in addition to eating and brewing, the sorghum stalk can also be juiced to make sugar.

Sugar is an indispensable good thing in life, listening to the owner's sugar making method, Li Niang must give it a try, not to sell money, it is also good to make sugar from home.

Shubai really came back with a load of firewood quickly, he pulled Li Niang aside, suppressed his excitement and whispered to Li Niang, the worm sickle is really too good, a knife passed, the big branch at the mouth of the bowl fell in response, and it was not too easy to chop wood.

On this day, Shubai went back and forth to the back mountain three times, chopped three loads of firewood, and chopped all of them to build a firewood rack to dry in a corner of the yard, and then set up the cucumber rack and bean rack, so that he could read for a few days with peace of mind.

The power of the worm sickle made Li Niang more interested in the worm bead, and she went to the Heavenly Court Immortal Village in the evening, and saw Du Feng Daxian alone, watching the video on the sofa with a big grin, and suddenly had an idea in her heart.
