119 Qishan Bezhuang
The invitation from the Li family felt dispensable to Guan Ping and Yun Ying, but they didn't expect to go home as a gossip, Jia not only sternly asked Guan Ping to go to the banquet as soon as possible, but also forced a bunch of etiquette for the two of them to go to the banquet.
Yun Ying felt that her head was as big as a bucket when she heard this, and she hurriedly made an excuse and said: "Mother-in-law, Brother Guan Ping went to Li Mansion to have classmates to catch up, I just went to meet the sisters who worked as maids in other people's houses, it is useless to learn this, it is better for me to go to the town and ask Uncle Liu to help Brother Guan Ping find a scholar first." ”
"Are you so easy to find as a scholar? Say yes? Jia's appearance was a little strict, which always reminded Yun Ying of the head teacher who was called "Extermination Shitai" in the junior high school of his previous life, as long as Jia's eyes were glaring, Yun Ying unconsciously felt worried in her heart, silently took half a step back, and replied respectfully:
"If there is no one in the town, I plan to ask Uncle Liu to help me go to the county seat to find it, and it is estimated that it will be delayed for a while."
The two shopkeepers of Zhenweiju have invisibly become Yunying's excuse to do things, she actually plans to go to the border city on the other side of Qishan in person, but it is basically impossible to go back and forth in one day; She had used this excuse to go out twice before, and Jia's trusted the shopkeeper of Zhenweiju more, so she let it go.
This time is no exception, Jia Shi frowned when he heard this, "Yunying, you are not the yellow-haired girl you used to be now, this thing of showing up is ......" This thing of showing up should not be done by Yun Ying, but where does Guan Ping, the only man in the Guan family, have the time and energy to do these chores? Halfway through speaking, Jia Shi sighed and changed his words:
"Forget it, when you are fifteen years old and after you are young, you must not show up again and cause gossip to Ping'er." Speaking of which. Jia's eyes glanced at Man'er, who was curled outside the door and tiptoeing to dodge, and coughed in a deep voice: "Man'er, where are you going?" Your sixth sister doesn't learn the rules, come and listen to me well. ”
Man'er, who was arrested, suddenly had a bitter look on her face, and could only watch Yun Ying make a "You suffered" expression to her and then strode away, pouting and replying to Yun Ying silently, "Sixth sister, remember to come back and bring me something delicious", then turned around and rubbed towards the main gate where Jia and Guan Ping were, and her small body was very cute.
"Mother, Man'er is still a little girl, why do you remember these rules?" Guan Ping is watching Engen and Man'er grow up, for him. The two of them were like his own siblings. He was reluctant to show Man'er, who was in his teens and looked like a little fairy, to show that bitter look.
"It's not small, your mother and I started learning these rules when we were four years old, and when she was so old, she could help your grandmother preside over the feeding to deal with the guests at home. Yun Ying can't learn these things, so she can't delay Man'er. Jia's eyes were far away. thought of the scene of people coming and going in the house every day before getting married. also remembered the lively moments of the mother's family's three-day small banquet and five-day big banquet; Retract your mind and look at Man'er with an extraordinary appearance. Nodding slightly, she believed that as long as she cultivated well. In a few years, Man'er will not lose to any lady's demeanor, so with her help, she is worthy of Yunying, who has paid a lot for this family.
What Jia, who thought he had helped Yun Ying think a lot, didn't know was that Man'er didn't like to learn these Rausch rules at all, and Man'er actually preferred to make her favorite food around the stove with her apron on her head. But Man'er is no longer a child, she knows what to do and what to deal with.
Walking out of the house and going to Xishan, the nettles on the periphery of Xishan are still there, and no one in the village has tried to explore Xishan, which also makes Yunying's secret base still kept.
Because of the limited manpower, even if Qiao Quan found out that there were still a few cols that could be cultivated and farmed, he couldn't try; In addition, Yun Ying was really embarrassed to be cheeky after reading the title deed left by Lixia, and took it for granted to develop other people's private property.
"Yunying, why did you go up the mountain?" Qiao Quan was checking the corn that was about to be harvested in the field, and as soon as he came out, he saw Yun Ying striding up the mountain, subconsciously looked at the mountain, and asked.
"Uncle Quan, are you there?" Yun Ying smiled awkwardly, she didn't expect to meet Qiao Quan, but fortunately, after a few years of running-in, Qiao Quan is the most trusted general by her side, and this trust even surpasses that of Jia Shi and Guan Ping.
At least, Qiao Quan knew about Qishan Beizhuang, but Jia's mother and son didn't know. It's not that Yun Ying deliberately concealed it, but Yun Ying didn't know what the title deed of Lixia Liuqi Mountain meant to her? If she was known by others and occupied, wouldn't she have greatly failed the trust of Uncle Li and Uncle Zhen.
Thinking of this, Yun Ying still didn't understand how the owner of Qishan Villa believed that she was a stranger so arrogantly. Not only did he leave the title deed, but he also left the deed of sale of the family in Qishan Villa.
The surname of this family is Hu. Yun Ying's name is Hu Bo, the head of the family in his forties, and the other is the two sons of the two couples, the eldest son Hu Yi is in his twenties, and the second son Hu is twenty-eight or nineteen years old. Except for Hu Bo, who is lame and has a scar on his face, his mother and wife are all deaf and mute, and they only know how to exert their strength. If it weren't for this family in Mochizuki Valley, Yun Ying wouldn't dare to cultivate those crops, Rao was like this, she still brought Qiao Quan up to help when she was rushing to plant and harvest.
"Uncle Quan, don't say you've seen me when you go back." It's not a one-time or two-time cooperation, Yun Ying's orders are very casual, and Qiao Quan should also be simply.
In the valley, Aunt Hu was taking a basket and picking two tender corns, when she saw Yun Ying coming forward, she wiped her hands, and stepped forward for a while.
In the face of the real deaf and mute, Yun Ying was very glad that the first person she met was Lixia, otherwise she really couldn't do anything about Aunt Hu.
Aunt Hu saw that she had poor communication with Yun Ying, so she simply didn't care about it, and directly pulled Yun Ying to go to Beizhuang.
"Aunt Hu, I don't ......" I don't want to enter other people's private places. Yun Ying has only come down from Qishan Beizhuang once in the past four years, and that time because she has too many doubts, and she doesn't know whether the so-called people who return to the street will admit it, so she didn't look carefully at the situation in Beizhuang at all.
Later, when she saw the Chinese who had returned to the street, and thought that Hu Bo was after all a subordinate of Beizhuang Zhenggang, she took it upon herself to be the shopkeeper, but came up to see it every season when it was planting and harvesting, and by the way fertilized, watered, weeded, and so on for the poor flowers and plants in the back garden. But every time, she declined Huber's invitation to let her go to the front yard, and she always felt that she had no idea in her heart.
Who knew that Aunt Hu had such a lot of strength when she came up today, so she directly pulled her to the front yard, and Yun Ying was dragged to a palatial courtyard gate before she finished saying a word of refusal.
Directly opposite is a huge shadow wall carved with "Fu", there is a super large stone jar in front of the shadow wall, the stone jar is built with a magnificent shape of the rockery, and the rockery is also made of wood pavilions and small bridges, so that Yun Ying knows for the first time that Tengyun Dynasty has such a wonderful technology in this backward feudal place.
Turning around the shadow wall is a large open space, with a flower platform on the left and right sides, some potted flowers, and an empty bluestone road in the middle leads to the stairs in front, with a wide cloister on the steps, and each house has elaborate carved doors and windows.
"Eh, ......" Aunt Hu beside her threw away Yun Ying's hand and shouted twice at a room on the left.
Hu Bo opened the door from the inside with a towel in his hand, and saw Yun Ying behind him, "Miss Yun Ying, you are here." ”
Aunt Hu smiled and retreated, Yun Ying twisted her body uncomfortably: "Uncle Hu, didn't I tell you several times, I'm just an ordinary person on the other side of the mountain, don't call me Miss?" ”
"Yes, the little one knows, Miss Yunying." Hu Bo only knew that Xin Zhen had conveyed the young master's order when he left: they must serve Yun Ying as the master. He himself is a disabled soldier who retired from the battlefield, and his wife and son are all disabled, if it were not for the young master's intercession, their family would not have lived such a leisurely life now. Therefore, no matter what Yun Ying said, he kept the difference between respect and inferiority firmly in his heart.
Yun Ying rolled her eyes to the sky and waved her hand: "Forget it, Uncle Hu, why did you ask Aunt Hu why she hurriedly pulled me over?" ”
Looking around, Aunt Hu didn't know when she was gone. Hu Bo limped to five feet in front of Yun Ying and bowed and replied, "It's a little one, I want to ask you, Miss, can this year's corn be handed over to the tooth shop on Huihui Street to sell?" ”
In the first year of planting corn, Yunying didn't see corn kernels at all except for the seeds left by Lixia; The corn had just been harvested in the second year, and Yun Ying was still worried about how to sell the corn, but when she was away, someone from the border city general's mansion directly gave two thousand taels of silver tickets to take away the corn, and calculated the price, and sold it at a high price.
Yun Ying of the General's Mansion thinks that she can't afford to provoke her, for the sake of the high price increase, the corn of the second and third years is also wrapped up by the General's Mansion, coincidentally, Yun Ying didn't catch up with the person who came to negotiate once, but she just took the deed paper and silver ticket handed over to her by Hu Bo and couldn't cry or laugh.
Just this year? Yun Ying suddenly remembered Guan Ping's statement, could it be that the government thought the price was too expensive? Since Hu Bo asked this question, Yun Ying couldn't shirk it, and was about to go back to the street to find Ya Yu to buy a scholar for Guan Ping, so he simply took Hu Bo to find Ya Yu to implement this matter.
There is only a small section of the road from Qishan to the border city, and there is a small courtyard after walking this small section, and the Hu Bo family lives here to guard the main road up the mountain on weekdays. There was a horse in the yard, and a plain carriage, with the help of the carriage, and the two rushed to the north gate of the border city in the dark.
I mentioned earlier that the three border cities are strict in checking household registration, but Yun Ying is unimpeded in the border city with an ebony sign in Hu Bo's hand, and her identity has not been checked at all. This time was no exception, the two entered the city smoothly, and Huber drove the carriage directly to Huihui Street, known as the border city "Yayu Street". (To be continued......)
