Before dawn, Shi got up early to burn the stove, cured a table of side dishes, cleaned a bowl of rice scooped by Li yesterday and boiled a large pot of sticky porridge. When he arrived at his house last night, he saw that the family was sincere and kind to him, so he made up his mind to serve his wife well.

When the meal was ready, and it was still early, the stone put the food on the large pot and grate, added a fire to the bottom of the stove to warm the water, and then tiptoed into the house to take out the clothes that had been wet yesterday and washed them.

The door of the upper room creaked open, and Mrs. Chen got up early to relieve herself, and walked to the chicken pen with her little feet, and the first thing she did every morning was to touch the buttocks of the chicken women to make sure that she could pick up a few eggs a day.

Before she walked to the chicken pen, Mrs. Chen raised her eyes and saw a half-grown young man squatting next to the well, who thought it was Qi An, and thought that Qi An had gone to Xuzhou Mansion for the exam, and her eyes swept to see that the bolt of the gate was still there, and there were several rows of messy footprints on the road to the gate.

It rained in the rain last night, and each room went to bed early, and everyone didn't know that Chen Xiucai had gone home, and he also brought a small servant.

The stone wrung out his clothes, and just as he was about to stand up and go to dry, he saw an old lady standing in front of him with a pair of eyes staring at him without blinking. Along the way, Chen Xiucai told him a lot of family things, but he never mentioned Mrs. Chen, he thought that Mrs. Chen was an old lady who came to visit the door, and greeted him with a grin: "Auntie." Morning, come to our house so early, I'll go and give you a bowl of tea. ”

What the?

The entire Chen family compound is hers, and this hairy young man actually treats her as a visitor, maybe she is a thief, not only stealing things but also taking this yard as his own.

Without saying a word, Mrs. Chen picked up an arm-thick jujube stick from the side of the well and wheeled it towards the stone. The stone was still grinning. I was shocked by this stubble. I was beaten a few sticks, and I jumped straight to my feet in pain.

"Something that loses its conscience, rotten belly, rotten intestines, rotten lungs. Where did the little thief come from, but he regarded this place as his own home. Mrs. Chen held a wooden stick, took a pair of small feet to chase a stone, and slapped it on him one by one. He gasped and cursed.

This woke up the people in each room, and Old Man Chen also chased after him and scolded. Mrs. Chen scolded and howled at Chen Zifu: "The third, the third, there is a thief in the house." ”

Zhang opened the door and saw Cai's wooden pot for soaking beans in the yard. picked it up and splashed the stone all over her face, Mrs. Chen slapped her face and laughed deservedly, and the stone was so angry that she jumped and ran away.

Here, Old Man Chen and Chen Zifu want to hold down the stone. The door of the north wing squeaked open, and Chen Xiucai and Li stood at the door. I was shocked to see the hula in the yard catching pigs.

The stone seemed to have seen a savior, and opened his mouth like Chen Xiucai and Li for help: "Master, wife, help me!" ”

It was Cai Shi who understood first, slapped his hands and smiled: "Big brother is back!" ”

Old man Chen saw his eldest son standing at the door of the north wing, his body was thinner than before, but his face was more energetic than before, but he was happy in his heart, but he didn't feel it.

"I came here last night, because I was afraid of disturbing my father and mother, so I didn't go to the room to say goodbye." Chen Xiucai carried Old Man Chen into the upper room.

Old Mrs. Chen squinted her eyes and glared at Li a few times: "Where do you bring a wild boy, but you regard this place as your own home." ”

When the stone saw this, he knew seven, seven, eighty, eight, and eight, but he was afraid that this old pious woman was the stepmother of the old man.

Li Shi entered the pot house and saw that the stone had made a table of dishes, so he praised it in his heart, and still instructed him: "Our countrymen don't pay so much attention to it early in the morning, it is enough to have porridge and cakes, it is difficult to make so many dishes for you." ”

Seeing that he was drenched, he let him drink a bowl of hot tea and go to the house to change his clothes.

Li thought that her husband had been away for so long, where could the food in Yuhang and Shudi compare to home, and he wrote back and said that he missed the food she cooked.

So she rolled up her sleeves and scooped up the noodles, Xue Ruxue Jiao put her hands down, picked a piece of fat and thin pork, tripped over the leek pork filling, and lit a fire to fry three pots of pork dumplings. The meat filling was filled with sesame oil, green onions, and shrimp skin, which were fresh and tender, and when the fried dumplings were served on the table, Chen Xiucai smiled and took two chopsticks and put them in his mouth.

"I'm not afraid of burning my tongue." Seeing that Chen Xiucai was happy, Li was overjoyed, picked up a bowl and sandwiched a few side dishes, and let the stone hold it and send it to the upper room.

The family sat around for breakfast, and the stone was brought by Chen Xiucai from Yuhang, but it was a first-hand meal from the Central Plains.

The stone came out of the upper room, and Li put the fried dumplings and side dishes in one place, piled up the plates, pointed to the stool opposite and said to him: "You are also hungry, you have poured cold water in the morning, drink a bowl of ginger soup first to go to the cold and wet to eat." ”

The stone was flattered, he has been called by the master since he followed Chen Xiucai, Chen Xiucai treated him but did not have the master's money, and there were not so many rules not to look at him as a person, along the way to eat and wear and wear him in one place, and teach him to read, at this time his wife treated him kindly, and his eyes were red: "The little one holds a bowl for his wife." ”

"We don't like this in our family, you have also seen it, our family is not a rich and noble family, it is originally a rural family, there are no rules for being a person, you stand and hold a bowl and my mother can't eat it." Xue Jiao smiled and said, Shi Shi scratched his head embarrassedly when he heard this, and sat down on a stool.

Chen Xiucai also said: "There are not so many rules at home. ”

After eating, Chen Xiu was going to Fucheng to pick up Qi An, and the car hired yesterday had not yet come, so he went to the upper room to talk to Old Man Chen.

The stone helped put away the empty bowl, Qi Ping ate pine nut candy and looked at him curiously and asked, "Why did you follow my father to our house, your father's mother?" ”

One sentence poured down the tears of the stone, so he quickly stopped, and took out a mud doll with a wrinkled nose and wrinkled eyes from his pocket and gave it to Qi Ping: "Little master, this is what I brought back to you from Shudi." ”

Stone now changed "small" to "me" when he spoke, and Qi Ping smiled happily as he held the clay doll. took out the pine nut candy from his pocket and handed it to the stone: "You will live in our house in the future, my cousin will live in our house without her mother." ”

Although Qi Ping is a villain, the words he said are really heartwarming, and the stone grinned when he heard it: "I will also make a kite, and I will make one for you in the spring." ”

Qi Ping's eyes lit up, and he said vaguely with pine nut candy in his mouth: "I want to be big, I like big peacocks." ”

He still remembers that one spring, Xue Yao brought a peacock kite from Xuzhou Mansion. He looked at it and touched the peacock's tail. was reprimanded a few times by Qi Lin.

Shi quickly boiled a large pot of boiling water and scalded the bowls one by one.

knew that he was Xu Guozhi's little servant who gave Chen Xiucai, so he deliberately asked the Xu family about the situation: "What is the situation of the Xu family." Thanks to his support, otherwise your master would not be able to do business. "I was in a hurry yesterday, and I didn't look closely, but now I look at the past. Seeing the stone grow is very energetic, such a capable boy doesn't know why he is a current person. I sighed in my heart.

"Back to Mrs., Xu Mansion is a family with rules, the door is strict, and Mrs. is the niece of the former Shangshu. He passed away due to illness a few years ago, and only one eldest young master studied in Shaanxi, and now there is only one aunt in the house. I heard that the background is not very good, and he said that he looked like his dead sister. Only then did he redeem her. The stone lowered his eyes.

The background is not good, presumably it is from such a secret background. She has also heard the rumors between Xu Guozhi and Wenxiu when he was young, and presumably his so-called sister is Wenxiu.

"Where does your lord go most often besides running boats?" Li couldn't help but ask after all.

I heard the idle woman twist her tongue, and she also heard a lot of gossip, and all the merchants who got rich were begging for a small amount outside; and hath the one who marries one house and hides it from two houses; What a lady with a positive head is left behind, but the heart and liver treasure are carried outside.

The back of the headband is a heart and liver treasure.

These Li didn't pay attention to it, what kind of person her husband was, she understood it in her stomach, and she carried the money back to the letter, and put these many things for her and the child, gossip was only the wind blowing in her ears, and she had to laugh at the person who couldn't see anything else. But Xu Xiucai, who grew up with her husband as a child, became the governor and begged for a concubine, she was afraid that her husband would do the same, a few days ago I heard that Jiangnan wine shop Qinglou became a trend, and most people thought about begging for a concubine after two more bags of food, not to mention that her husband is not as good as before, he is literate and hyphenated, and it is said that the Qinglou woman's favorite is a scholar who is well-versed in literature and ink.

She couldn't ask Chen Xiucai these words, so she had to ask the stone.

What kind of person is Shishi, as soon as he hears it, he knows the voiceover in Li's words: "The master's time is all spent on running boats, buying and selling goods, and all his energy is on it, and he has no time to do anything else, only at night can he have the time to read books, and the old man has been boiling off his skin in the past few months." ”

What the stone said is true, there are many teahouses and restaurants at the port and wharf, but Chen Xiucai has not been there once, that is, the prostitute's boat floated past Chen Xiucai, and he didn't look at it properly.

When Li heard this, his heart returned to his stomach.

Xue Jiao was also beside her, listening to the stone's words, and helped to comfort Li's heart: "If Dad had time to go somewhere else, he wouldn't have gone to deliver things to the house." ”

Shi pursed his lips and smiled, the second lady in the family is really not simple, such a mind can be figured out.

Li suddenly remembered something and asked the stone: "Yesterday, I heard your master say that you want to find relatives?" ”

As soon as this sentence fell, the stone fell to his knees with a thud, crying painfully: "The little one doesn't have much hope, and finally followed the master back to Xuzhou Mansion from Yuhang, and the wife only took me as a human ......."

Shi turned out to be a person from Xuzhou Mansion, and his family lived on the edge of the canal, and when he was five years old, the canal was flooded and many people were scattered, and he crowded in the crowd to watch the excitement, and was taken away by the abductor.

At that time, I didn't remember where my parents were in my hometown, and I only knew that my nickname was Stone, and I sold it to people and learned to serve people for a few years, and at the age of eight or nine, I was sold to a large family to feed the horses in the stable, and then the big family was ruined, and the next family was sold, and he was transferred to Xufu.

The housekeeper went to pick someone, saying that he was following a friend who served the governor, but no one else stood up, but he heard that Chen Xiu was a person from Xuzhou Mansion, and the sound of the pipe touched his heart, and he stood up immediately and was willing to follow Chen Xiucai.

Over the years, I don't know where my family is, I don't remember my surname, I don't remember it, I don't remember it, it's not easy to find a needle in the haystack, whether I can find it depends on whether she has this blessing in her life.

Flush up and pull up the stones.

"You've been out there for more than ten years, and you don't remember what your original family looks like, and where to start when you say you want to find it." Li Shi couldn't hear such a thing, and wiped his tears.

Shi knew that this family was a good person, and his eyes were red and tears flowed: "I remember that there is a sister at home, there is an elm tree at the door of the house, and the tree is full of green flowers in spring. ”

I can't forget it for more than ten years, but I'm looking forward to finding my father and mother one day.

Xue Jiao's tears fell, for her, it was not like a stone, she had no hometown, he was abducted by a kidnapper, and she was abducted by the torrent of time.

"If you can ask me to find my father, I am willing to make cows and horses for my wife and master in this life and the next life."

When a person is a subordinate, he is abducted like a stone, but he always remembers to go home, if he is sold by his parents, he is relieved to be a subordinate, such as Xueyao.

said that Li's, Xuejiao, and Xueru's eyes also turned red, and they burst out a few tears, and Xuejiao spoke for Li's family: "Since you are looking for your father, we asked our relatives to help you ask, more than ten years have passed, and I don't know if you can find it." ”

The stone slammed on the ground this time and refused to get up: "If I can find it, I will give my wife, the old lady, the young master, a long fast, if I can't find it, I will only treat me as a subordinate who bought it for ten taels of silver." ”

Li's eyes were red, and when he saw that his children were abducted, he didn't know if he would live, so he wiped his eyes and said to him: "How can I not help you find this blessing thing, you are at home first, and inquire while staying, if you find it, you follow your master to do business or go home."
