In this era, identity and family are a gap that is difficult to cross in the eyes of ordinary people.

Therefore, even if Xia Linxuan and his wife were gone, the neighbors who were thinking about the three children still hoped to gather everyone's meager strength for Shujie to participate in the autumn exam. As long as Shujie is admitted to the examination, he hopes to get an errand from the government, and the life of the three brothers and sisters will be guaranteed.

In the eyes of these market neighbors, it is already a great thing to be promoted and get an official position, and they dare not hope for it. That is, everyone on Xitang Street knows that Lu Dao Shujie has a talent for reading since he was a child, and he was admitted to Xiucai when he was less than 15 years old, otherwise he would not dare to think about it, after all, for the poor, reading and studying is a very money-consuming thing.

But what they didn't expect was that the shy young man back then was now a champion of both civil and military affairs, and he heard those people say that he is still a close minister of the Son of Heaven.

The neighbors don't know very well what the official position of the "Son of Heaven and Close Minister" is, but the chief Zhang Shiwen said that he is the person who can speak by the emperor's side, the emperor? It's so far away from them! They only knew that they were nervous and scared when they saw the county commander, because the county magistrate could make them very unlucky with a word, but look, even the prefect was respectful to Young Master Jie.

Seeing the three Shujie brothers and sisters walking towards them, except for Shu Yao wearing a hat and not being able to see their faces clearly, the Shujie brothers were all smiling, as if they had lived on Xitang Street before, but the more and more obvious noble aura exuded by them still made people look up to them.

Some of the neighbors thought that they should salute, but they wouldn't, and some wanted to call "Young Master Jie" and "Brother Jie" like before. But he rubbed his hands together and couldn't shout. More people are stunned......

Shujie took his younger siblings and saluted everyone: "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Li, Aunt Li, uncles and aunts in the neighborhood. Shujie came back with his younger siblings to thank everyone! Xie Lu Xie neighbors have been helping and taking care of them! ”

The neighbors hurriedly returned the salute in all sorts of ways, or shook their heads and waved their hands embarrassedly: "Where is it? Where? We didn't do anything, but we stained the light of your children. "Back then, they said that if a little bit of a family saved a little, they could feed the three siblings and let Shujie continue the scientific research. But later, instead of needing their help, Shujie often gave them some fresh prey, and later opened a tofu factory, and almost every family had people get jobs in the shop or tofu factory one after another. With a stable income. If you want to say thanks, they should thank the three Shujie brothers and sisters.

Zhang Shiwen said with a smile: "Okay, don't push around, everyone is a neighbor, and they all grew up watching Brother Jie'er's three brothers and sisters." These children are like Brother Xia and their younger siblings, they are all benevolent and righteous children, and everyone is too much to see the outside world but hurts the child's heart. It turns out that it is still the same, the child is out, and he is still the child of our Xia brothers. ”

Uncle Li smiled innocently: "Eh, that's the case." That's right. Young Master Jie, Aunt Mei said that you will arrive today. Your aunt steamed peanut and red bean cake early in the morning, saying that your three brothers and sisters like to eat it, and ...... It is also an auspicious omen. ”

Shujie said happily: "Xie Lu Xie Aunt Li, we have been for more than half a year, and we miss the peanut and red bean cake made by Aunt Li very much." Shuwen also exclaimed: "Okay, you can eat the peanut and red bean cake made by Aunt Li again." ”

Peanut and red bean cake means wonderful pen and flowers, good luck, step by step, and is generally only made during the New Year. For ordinary people, glutinous rice, peanuts, red dates, red beans, and sugar are all precious ingredients, even if they are made once a year, they are reluctant to put more materials, and most of them take much cheaper indica rice flour and mix it into glutinous rice flour to make cakes, and the taste is naturally much worse.

Aunt Li's skill in making peanut red bean cake is even praised by Donnie Yen, who is good at making pastries, to make delicious peanut red bean cake, not only requires materials, but also requires ingenuity.

In order to send the best peanut and red bean cake to the three brothers and sisters of Shujie, Aunt Li makes peanut and red bean cake every year during the Chinese New Year is full of flavor and taste, fragrant and loose, delicate and soft, glutinous but not sticky, chewing, the mouth is full of peanuts, red beans, and red dates, which makes people love it.

Because of the auspicious meaning, when Shujie went to the Daimyo Mansion City to participate in the autumn examination, the day before the exam, Aunt Li specially steamed peanut and red bean cake for Chunsheng to send to the Daimyo Mansion City. Last year, the day before the three siblings entered Beijing, Aunt Li steamed a bed of peanut and red bean cake for them to take on the road to eat. In the eyes of the three Shujie brothers and sisters, the peanut and red bean cake made by Aunt Li is no worse than the rare food rewarded by the palace, and the most precious thing is Aunt Li's heart.

Seeing that the three brothers and sisters of Shujie still want to eat the peanut and red bean cake they made, the joy and joy on their faces are not fake, and Aunt Li's face is full of relief and satisfaction. Their family has already preliminarily prepared to move south, and I don't know if there will be a chance to make cakes for these children to eat in the future?

Uncle Li and Aunt Li are from Sioux City in the south, and Uncle Li still has an old father and mother in his hometown. The yard on Xitang Street where they live now is a long-term lease to a fellow villager, and they wanted to wait for the lease to expire next year, but when the money was almost saved, they bought this yard, repaired it, built two more houses, brought the old man in, and also prepared for the family affairs of Chunsheng.

Who knew that Xitang Street in Ludao was suddenly requisitioned, and the housing prices in the entire Yulin County jumped three times, and now, for their family, buying a yard in Yulin County has become a luxury, and they can only go back to Sioux City, and they can also renovate and expand the dilapidated house in their hometown, isn't it much easier than in Yulin County? What they are reluctant to do is only the good neighborhood relationship now, the ten-year relationship network in Yulin, and Chunsheng's stable errand at Mixue Tofu Factory, two months ago, Chunsheng was just promoted to steward.

Thinking of this, a trace of melancholy flashed across Aunt Li's smiling face: "If you like to eat, my aunt will make it for you again, and when I go back to Suzhou City in the future, it will be difficult for my aunt to make it for you to eat." ”

"Aunt Li, are you leaving Yulin?" Shu Yao asked anxiously, decided so quickly? Are they coming back late?

Aunt Li was about to say something, but was stopped by Uncle Li: "What do you say about those good days?" Isn't this the last decision? The children haven't entered the house yet, so go and help steam the cake again, just to make a snack pad for the children, and rush back all the way. Hungry for sure. ”

Aunt Li hurriedly responded: "Yes." Be. You see I'm really confused, I'm going to steam the cake. ”

Aunt Mei took Aunt Li's hand and said with a smile: "I know that the young master and the girl like to eat the cakes you make, and they have been steamed." ”

Shujie thought for a while and said to Zhang Shiwen: "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Li and Aunt Li, you stay tonight, go back slowly, Shujie has something to discuss with you." "It's better to arrange this as soon as possible. It is easy for the neighbors to make arrangements.

Zhang Shiwen and the three of them naturally agreed, and with Shujie's current identity, he was still willing to talk to them, and he felt that he had face when he thought about it.

Shujie's maternal grandmother Zhao He also brought his eldest aunt Zhang and youngest grandson Zhao Tianyou over, Tianen was talking to them, and Liu's mother was also accompanied.

Zhao He looked at Tian'en, who was much more cheerful and seemed to have changed as a person, and had mixed feelings. Tianen is now studying with the shopkeeper in the Mixue tofu shop, and never thinks that he is a "young master" who is superior, down-to-earth, and diligent. is also polite and sensible, and the popularity of the top and bottom is very good. I also have more confidence in myself, and I am naturally more and more cheerful.

Seeing the three Shujie brothers and sisters coming over, Zhao He excitedly stretched out his hands: "Jie'er......"

Shujie hurriedly walked a few steps forward and held Zhao He's hand: "Grandma, how are you?" ”

Zhao He nodded straightly: "Okay, good, grandma is very good." Yao'er and Wen'er came, and let grandma take a look, hehe, they have grown taller again. The silver you asked Aunt Mei to send, grandma bought two small yards, one for each of your two uncles, now the noodle shop at home is open, and the backyard also makes some sauerkraut to sell, we are living a good life now, you don't have to worry. ”

Because the imperial court vigorously developed the economy and encouraged business, there were more and more merchants coming and going in Yulin Town, which had the advantage of geographical location. Although Wang Xi helped Zhao's shop is not a prosperous shop, it is in a place where merchants are concentrated, and Zhao's noodle restaurant is honest in business, the portion is sufficient, the taste is good, and the business is quite good.

The Zhao Dabao brothers all sighed, if they knew this, it would be better to return to Yulin a few years earlier, than to leave their hometown, and be driven out of Haicheng by bullies at the worst. The location of their family's sauerkraut workshop is now also a prosperous shop.

Fortunately, with the help of the three Shujie brothers and sisters when they came back this time, they were able to go so smoothly. Zhao Dabao's two brothers felt very guilty in their hearts, and they neglected to take care of Shujie's nephew for many years, but in turn they used the money funded by their nephew to buy a house in difficult times.

However, Zhao He solemnly warned them when they gave them their respective house deeds, and they were not allowed to talk to Shujie after the two rooms, Shujie gave them funding this time because Shujie's three brothers and sisters valued their love and righteousness, but their brothers went to ask for it, not only lost the face of their sister (sister), lost the face of the old Zhao family, but also made Shujie lose face in front of a pair of younger siblings.

Shujie has been taught by the Zhen family since he was a child, and the backers of the three brothers and sisters in recent years are also friends of the Zhen family, and even the royal gifts to the three brothers and sisters are because of the Zhen family, which has nothing to do with their Zhao family. But they came to the door to ask for benefits when Shujie became famous, didn't they lose Shujie's face and Shujie's mother's face Zhao in front of those nobles?

Zhao He doesn't know any big truth, she only knows that "people want face, trees want bark", their old Zhao family can't do that faceless thing, let alone let their daughter be ashamed of Zhen under the ground, and can't raise her head in front of Zhen.

The Zhao Dabao brothers nodded approvingly, and the eldest daughter-in-law Zhang also agreed, only the Cheng family muttered, and his face was unwilling. However, although Zhao Erbao is honest, he is also very terrible to be tough, he respects his dead sister very much, and agrees with his mother's words very much, and he can't tolerate Cheng's words in this matter. Especially when Zhao He's family came back from Beijing before, after he heard Zhao He's "ugly things" in the capital, he felt ashamed of his sister, and he seriously warned Cheng at that time, Zhao Erbao rarely got so angry with Cheng, which really made her know that it was more terrible for honest people to start a fire.

Moreover, after Zhao He's returned to Yulin, he really let Zhao Dabao's two brothers separate, and Zhao He's followed Zhao Dabao.

Although the two brothers of Zhao Dabao still did the business of a noodle restaurant and a sauerkraut shop together after they separated, the brothers settled the accounts, Zhao Dabao accounted for 60% of the shares, and Zhao Erbao accounted for 40%. Because the silver of the store comes from the private money of Zhao Dabao's daughter-in-law, the title deed and deed of the store belong to the big house.

Cheng knows very well in his heart that since that incident happened in Haicheng, not to mention that Zhao He's and Zhao Dabao's husband and wife have a big problem with her, even Zhao Erbao is not satisfied with her, what she said does not work in this family at all, it really makes Zhao Erbao angry, and it is difficult to ensure that she will not be taken back to Haicheng. Besides, even if she wants to do something, Shujie won't give her face, and the three brothers and sisters are not easy to handle.

Listening to Zhao He's words, Shujie hugged his younger brothers and sisters one by one, and his heart was warm. When Zhao He's family and the others left Beijing, Shu Yao handed over a letter to trust Zhang Gui to bring to Aunt Mei, asking her to ask Wang Xi to help the Zhao family find a shop, and also asked Zhao He to send five hundred taels of silver. Shujie only learned about these things later, and he knew that his younger brothers and sisters didn't want him to worry about it, and he was also moved by their intimacy. (To be continued......)
