In the past, the Chen family's life could actually be very good, and the premise was that Chen Quanzhong quit gambling and cheered up. Now, the Chen family's life can be better lived, and the premise is that Chen Quanzhong can't gamble, don't make trouble for Chen Qiuniang, and drag her career back.

Chen Qiuniang recognized this problem on the first day she woke up at Liu Cheng's house, and thought of many ways to deal with Chen Quanzhong. But Chen Quanzhong was addicted to gambling and never went home. She also failed to meet Chen Quanzhong head-on, so she never implemented it. And today is the first time I have met Chen Quanzhong.

The first time they met, she beat him up, saying that he was a thief, and made him lose face. Although her last words were to tell Chen Quanzhong to turn around, based on the analysis of what happened in Chen Qiuniang's memory, Chen Quanzhong was very paranoid and narrow-minded. It is not easy to get such a person to turn back. Even if you turn back, or it's all superficial work, but in fact, there is a hidden evil intention.

Therefore, she may have to use other extraordinary time periods for Chen Quanzhong. This showdown with Chen Quanzhong is a matter of time. And what she needs is to get Chen Liu's approval.

This is not only the reason for gaining the support of her family, but also because she always feels that Chen Liu's family has been an errand boy next to the most favored concubine in the Houshu Palace, and she is the nurse of that concubine, so she may have some ways to help her career.

She originally wanted to find a suitable time to talk to Chen Liushi about Chen Quanzhong, but she didn't expect today's incident to make Chen Liushi take the initiative to give her such an opportunity. She simply worked on Chen Liu's ideological work, saving time to develop her career and worry about family chores.

"But—" Chen Liushi hesitated for a long time before he spat out this unconstructive word.

"Grandma, our Chen family can't live like this anymore. I'm young, but I've died once. When I woke up that day, I felt that we had been too aggrieved for half a year. Asking for food, being dizzy with hunger, and watching my two younger brothers cry with hunger, there is nothing I can do. Every day I dream that my father is back to the shore, but my father is obsessed. From the moment I woke up, I didn't expect him to turn back. Chen Qiuniang said, she couldn't help sighing, the bitter days in her memory came one after another, making her feel aggrieved, uncomfortable, and depressed, and tears unconsciously flowed into her eyes.

As she spoke, she wiped her tears, and Chen Liushi couldn't help but burst into tears, saying: "I know that your father is sorry for you, but he is your father in the end, although he is not your own child, but in the end he still raised you and loved you." Besides, the crime of unfilial piety"

When Chen Qiuniang heard Chen Liu's words, she immediately understood in her heart that Chen Liu's was not opposed to giving Chen Quanzhong a small punishment and a big commandment, but was worried that she would not recognize Chen Quanzhong and that she would be infamous for being unfilial.

"Grandma, don't worry. He's always been my dad, I know that. I've always hoped that Daddy would come back and be with us. I must have heard what I said to him just now, and my grandmother must have heard it. I said to him, 'We're waiting for him, we want him back'. Chen Qiuniang continued, her categorical tone was to reassure Chen Liushi that she would not go too far with Chen Quanzhong.

"That's good, that's good. It would be best if he could stop gambling and turn back. Chen Liushi muttered.

Chen Qiuniang breathed a sigh of relief, so she got up and helped her back to the house, waiting for her to lie down.

As soon as she lay down, her two younger brothers woke up. She put out the vegetable leaf rice porridge simmered with grass and wood ashes, and while feeding her two younger brothers, she gossiped with Chen Liu's family, and said that she went to Liuhe Town yesterday to find a job, doing chores in the inn kitchen, taking care of food, and having hard money every month.

"I don't have a lot of money, but I always have some hope, at least I don't have to worry about my brother starving to death." Chen Qiuniang felt that she still had to talk to Chen Liushi about going to the Liuhe Town Inn to help the cook, and as for her plan, she would skip it. After all, it is a matter that has not yet been skimmed, and I don't even know whether Chen Wenzheng will agree to the technology as a shareholder.

If he didn't agree, she could only settle for the next best thing, working in his kitchen for a while, helping his inn out of the predicament, and then waiting for the opportunity to submit her plan to Chen Wenzheng. She definitely doesn't think it's the best idea to open a store or sell snacks to attract people.

"The inn kitchen? They, don't they know about you, your resurrection from the dead? Chen Liushi was very surprised.

"They should know." Chen Qiuniang replied. But there was also a "sigh" in his heart, if Chen Wenzheng knew about her "deceitful corpse", I don't know if he dared to ask her to go to the kitchen. This is really a problem, and tomorrow we must use this matter to probe Chen Wenzheng's tone.

"If I know that there is no other story, I am afraid that they have other intentions. Qiu Niang, to be honest, which inn in Liuhe Town is it? Chen Liushi seemed to realize that this matter was not simple, as if he was afraid that his simple granddaughter would be deceived, so he immediately turned over and sat up without caring about the back pain.

"Yunlai Inn. I don't think the boss's family is a bad person. Chen Qiuniang said. I can't help but comfort Chen Liu's family.

Chen Liushi nodded again and again, as if relieved, and said, "It's not the auspicious inn that is lost." The shopkeeper Liu of the auspicious inn is narrow-minded and forgetful of profit. ”

"Grandma knows that family?" Chen Qiuniang immediately asked about future competitors.

Chen Liushi shook his head, only saying that he knew each other, but he was not familiar with it. Later, her handkerchief was handed over, that is, every time Mrs. Zhu Jia, she often went to the palace to see her, and she rarely had to gossip. I often talk about the customs of Liuhe Town, and I have mentioned the shopkeeper Liu who I know together.

"I haven't heard of that one at the Yunlai Inn. However, the salt elbow in the shop is a must, and I heard that it was invented by the shopkeeper himself. It's that Xiao Lian loved it very much at that time. Shuying brought it to Chengdu from Liuhe Town every time. That taste, tsk, don't mention it, I've never eaten anything that delicious. Chen Liushi said as he tasted it and swallowed his saliva.

"That's good. I went to do chores, and I could learn some skills. In the future, I will be able to work as a full-time worker in a large family, and I will be able to maintain our family's livelihood. After solving the livelihood, I will find a master for Qiusheng in these ten miles and eight towns and learn some skills. Then our family's days will be higher. Chen Qiuniang tried her best to depict the blueprint as simple as possible. She really didn't dare to tell Chen Liushi about those whimsical plans, she was really afraid that she would be scared.

When Chen Liushi heard this, tears came again, and he was still babbling about the Chen family's blessing to have Chen Qiuniang, and he only hoped that the Yunlai innkeeper's family was a kind person, and they knew that she had come back from the dead, and they could still use her.

Chen Qiuniang couldn't help but comfort her, the two talked for a while, and then went around to the topic of Chen Quanzhong, and Chen Qiuniang took the opportunity to inquire about the secrets of the Chen family. But Chen Liu's tone was very tight, and he only said that it was for her good.

Chen Qiuniang saw that there was no hope, so she didn't ask anymore. He fed his two younger brothers, cleaned them, and put them to a nap by the bedside.

After a while, Jiang Hang brought Xiao Wu and three other guards over, saying that he had asked for instructions. The second son said that there are always sneaky people in the village these days, and the Chen family is in the corner of the village, so it is rare for something like this afternoon to happen. Therefore, the Chen family's guards will not be withdrawn for the time being.

"Don't say I don't have anything to worry about. Even if he had, he didn't withdraw after a few days. Can he protect me for the rest of my life? Chen Qiuniang asked rhetorically. She really didn't want the Zhang family to guard here, so that Chen Quanzhong would not appear.

Jiang Hang was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I didn't ask, or I'll ask again." ”

Chen Qiuniang felt that this person was pretending, and he was obviously shrewd like a ghost, but he was still here to express himself.

"No need, I'm just kidding. I am a country girl, and the second son is the son of the general's mansion. Even if you know each other, you can count it as a few lifetimes of ancestral grave smoke. Chen Qiuniang stood up, waved her hand and shook her head, and what she said surprised herself. How was she afraid of Mendi? When the Dai family put so much pressure on her, she never flinched. If it weren't for the irreversible relationship between blood brothers and sisters, how could she retreat and take her grandmother abroad. Now, when she said these words, she made herself feel sour and jealous.

Is it any different for that kid? Chen Qiuniang thought of this stubble, and she was frightened.

Don't be delusional. You are ominous, you are poor, you are at the bottom, people are at the top. Besides, he was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child, and his mind was immature. Also, this is ancient times, men and women are not equal, and the girl will definitely have three wives and four concubines, and the rich and noble family like the General's Mansion is not good**. Don't get yourself in trouble.

Chen Qiuniang analyzed the shape in her heart, and silently muttered about giving herself a vaccination.

"The second son is a grateful person." Jiang Hang said.

"Come on, stop there. Originally, it was a gesture of thanks, or a few dozen taels of silver. In this way, there is no burden to each other. You don't have to send someone over and disturb my peaceful life. I, a country girl, want to have the life of the countryside. Chen Qiuniang said. She remembered that she had told Zhang Ci about it earlier. Now, she told Jiang Hang that she knew that Jiang Hang would report it to Zhang Ci, which was also a variant of wanting to capture the past, even if she got rid of it, with Zhang Ci's temper, she would have dozens of taels of silver.

"The girl is serious." Jiang Hang is still polite.

Chen Qiuniang just smiled and said, "It's nothing, just ask Jiang Gongzi to go back." I'm going to make lunch. ”

Jiang Hang waved his hand and said "don't panic", and then turned around and waved his subordinates to come over. His subordinates carried a bag of rice and a bag of noodles in front of Chen Qiuniang.

"What is this for?" Chen Qiuniang asked, thinking that your Zhang Mansion would not send the old lady like this.

"In order to thank the gods for blessing the second son, the old lady gave grace to Liucun, and every family has it. And this. Jiang Hang said as he gave the bamboo food box in his hand to Chen Qiuniang.

"Thank you, old lady, for me." Chen Qiuniang took it unceremoniously. When she heard that this was not a reward for saving her life, but something that every family had, she breathed a sigh of relief, accepted the gift happily, and asked Jiang Hang to thank the old lady for her.

Jiang Hang agreed, and then said, "The second son invites Miss Chen to come over after dinner." ”

"Okay." Chen Qiuniang did not refuse. This is a big investor, and if you can catch it, of course you must seize it.

"Why did you find Qiu Niang again? She was still a child. Chen Liushi was immediately displeased.

Jiang Hang didn't know how to answer for a while, but Chen Qiuniang smiled and said, "Grandma, the second son is not a bad person. He was also bitten by a snake, and the Jing Divine Doctor said that I was poisoned and alive, and that blood could fight against snake venom, so he used a few drops as medicine to induce it. ”

She talked nonsense, and Jiang Hang immediately echoed it when she heard that it made sense. When Chen Liushi heard this, he felt sorry for Chen Qiuniang, so he naturally chattered and didn't give Jiang Hang a good look.

Jiang Hang drooped his head, stood aside in embarrassment, and was counted down by Chen Liu's cannon, and finally caught Chen Liu's breath, and hurriedly took his subordinates to leave.

Chen Liu's chatter, Chen Qiuniang coaxed her two younger brothers to sleep, and then heard that Qiusheng was back. She quickly turned out the door and escaped Chen Liu's nagging. In the courtyard, Chen Qiusheng caught a large basket of grasshoppers, and the grasshoppers were all crossed by ears of weeds through their necks, seven in one ear, and fifty or sixty strings in one basket.

Chen Qiuniang instructed Qiusheng to take the grasshopper to the water and run around, and put it in the wood ginger water that had been boiled a long time ago to soak. After waiting for half an hour, remove the lid, remove the head, gutt, and flour of the grasshopper, and make small pieces of naan-shaped cakes and put them in an iron pot to bake.

Eat leftovers from the morning at noon. In the evenings she makes grasshopper buns. When this child grows up, he must see some meat. She can't hunt the things in the mountains, but she is very good at turning these gadgets into delicious.

Chen Qiuniang looked at it and felt that she should add something else to this cake. He instructed Chen Qiusheng to pick cotton grass and goosefoot grass to make vegetarian ingredients.

Chen Qiusheng got the order and ran out quickly. Chen Qiuxia came back with a stretch, carrying a basket of willow leaves.

"Eldest sister, can you eat this? I've heard from the people in the village that these are insects sent by the gods. Chen Qiuxia put down the willow leaf grass and saw Chen Qiuniang fiddling with the grasshopper.

"Do they read more, or do I read more?" Chen Qiuniang asked rhetorically.

"Big sister." Chen Qiuxia replied very firmly.

"That's it. They talk nonsense. Chen Qiuniang smiled, then changed the topic again, and praised Chen Qiuxia for doing a good job and picking a lot of willow leaves. While praising Chen Qiuxia, she put down the work of cleaning grasshoppers, picked a few leaves of willow leaves and put them in the palm of her hand, and rubbed and rubbed them until the aquatic plants were covered with green foam, and she washed them in clean water. She spread out her palm, saw the white skin, smelled the palm, there was no fishy smell, she was so happy that she didn't know how to describe it.

"Eldest sister, can you eat this?" Chen Qiuxia asked.

"I can't." Chen Qiuniang replied. He also instructed Qiuxia to dig up a few willow grasses and plant them in the vegetable garden.

Although Qiuxia muttered that she couldn't eat it or plant it, she still went out obediently.

Chen Qiuniang looked at this willow leaf grass, as if she saw that she had added a heavier stroke to her brilliant career.

In this time and space, since I came, I would not just spend this life doing nothing.
