Chapter 34: Can I Take a Look?
"Here, these are the eight copper plates you paid back."
Yunxi gave Yunsong another eight copper plates.
Yun Song hurriedly spread out his small palm and took it.
After talking for a while, the sister and brother went to the firewood room together and saw a small pile of firewood piled up in the corner of the backyard.
Yunxi was just about to ask, but he didn't want to, Yun Song had already spoken:
"The aunt's brother next door specially sent it, saying that you helped his wife with moxibustion yesterday, which is very effective, and his wife sleeps until dawn at night, and her old back does not hurt.
said that you only accepted 100 wen from them, and you couldn't help it, so you sent this pile of firewood to our family.
He also said that in the future, when our firewood is burned, tell his sister and he will deliver it. ”
"That's embarrassing."
I didn't expect the aunt next door to be so enthusiastic, Yunxi told Yunsong to give money next time someone sent it.
Yun Song nodded like a pounding medicine:
"Got it, sister, that's what my father and mother said.
Alas, when Uncle Li Zheng left, he didn't even let out a fart, and people just can't compare with each other.
The more I compare, the sadder I become. ”
Yun Song had the tone of a little adult, which amused Yun Xi.
She couldn't stand up with a straight smile.
Finally stopped laughing, and the two sisters and brothers went into the firewood room and watered the soybean sprouts and garlic.
Looking at the stubble, vigorous and tender yellow garlic seedlings, Yun Song's little face was filled with a happy smile.
The voice was joyful:
"Sister, you see, this garlic grows so well, tender and yellow.
And the soybean sprouts, which are longer than the palm of my hand.
Is it possible to send it out and sell it? ”
"That's right.
Soybean sprouts can be sent out for sale, but the garlic has to grow to the chopsticks we use for eating. ”
"Sister, do you have to replant soybean sprouts and garlic sprouts?"
Yun Song thought that he had to spend money again to buy soybeans and garlic sprouts, and his heart ached.
My sister just took over the new shop, and the sale was more than 100 taels, and my mother and second aunt embroidered purses, needles and fabrics with money.
The vegetables and rice that we eat every day have to be bought with money, except for the well water, hey, it is so difficult to make money.
Seeing that Yun Song's small brows were tightly twisted, Yun Xi reached out and stroked it.
Comfort him:
"Sister, I haven't seen the consultation fee today."
"Also today?"
Yun Song's eyes lit up suddenly.
More money than her.
Yunxi looked funny.
The sisters and brothers returned to the bamboo chairs in the hall to finish, Yunxi solemnly opened the purse given by Mrs. Xia, and reached out to take out the silver ticket folded in half.
"One, two, three, four, five, wow, a total of five, the pattern on this is exactly the same as the pattern on the silver ticket of one hundred taels last time."
Seeing this, Yun Song opened his mouth wide in shock, looking stunned by lightning.
"Close your mouth, in the future, your sister will earn more.
Remember, if you mix with your sister, you often have meat to eat. ”
"That's it."
After a long time, Yun Song's face was not in a state, and he nodded mechanically in agreement.
At this moment, Yunxi and Yunsong heard the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open, followed by Zhang Xiulan's excited voice.
"Song'er, why aren't you strict?"
Yun Song in the house heard it, and quickly lowered his voice and asked Yun Xi to put away the silver ticket.
Yunxi amusedly obediently and did so.
Seeing that the silver bag was put away, Yun Song took Yun Xi's hand and went to the door of the hall to greet Zhang Xiulan and the others.
"Father, mother, second uncle, second aunt, eldest brother Chu, Mei'er, you are back."
Yunxi and Yunsong stood at the door of the hall, smiling and greeting the group of people who were walking towards the hall.
Seeing Chu Yue, who was a little dark and a little thin, Yunxi smiled like a good friend meeting.
Chu Yue received it and lifted the corners of his beautiful lips.
No, he was hit the shoulder, and immediately after, a deliberately lowed, teasing voice came into his ears.
"Big brother, it turns out that you like this."
"However, look at that little girl, she doesn't seem to be very old, I don't know if she is thirteen years old."
Chu Yue glared at the young man beside him angrily.
Also muffle the voice:
"Be careful what you say."
"Know------" The teenager deliberately dragged out the long tail note.
Chu Yue swept over with a glance, and the young man who was hanging immediately looked honest.
Just raise your hands and surrender:
"Big brother, I know, don't drive me away, I finally found you."
The abnormality of the two of them fell in Yunxi's eyes, looking at the two of them's god-like faces, Yunxi's eyebrows frowned slightly.
The two of them stood together, and Chu Yue was obviously a head taller than the young man.
It seems that this fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy should be Chu Yue's younger brother or cousin.
One of them is immature, the other is mature.
"Chu Yue, quickly call your brother into the house to drink tea."
When they arrived at the door of the hall, Zhang Xiulan helped Yun Shun to walk, and did not forget to turn around and call Chu Yue and them.
The second aunt and second uncle in front of them were amused when they heard it.
"Aunt Yun, my name is Chu Yue, you can call me Xiao Yue'er in the future."
Chu Yue jumped suddenly, and arrived in front of Zhang Xiulan.
Seeing that Yunmei covered her little mouth and was amused.
Yunxi waited for Chu Yue to come to him before he entered the house with him with a smile.
"Brother Chu, when you come back this time, you won't ------"
"No, Sister Xi'er, my brother has just come back, and he has to--" Speaking of this, he received a warning look from Chu Yue, and Chu Yue immediately changed his words.
"My brother said that he was reluctant to make a good dish made by Aunt Yun."
Of course, the most important thing is to accompany your future sister-in-law.
Chu Yue quickly added in her heart.
"Xi'er, I have something for you--"
Chu Yue opened his mouth, not wanting Zhang Xiulan's surprised voice to sound from the side of the tea table.
"Xi'er, what's on this table?"
"The old lady asked me to bring it back for you to taste."
When Yunmei heard that there was something to eat, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Go to the table with your hands and feet and reach for the pastries.
Yun Shun on the side saw it, and quickly picked up one of the packets and put it in Yun Mei's small hand.
With a loving face, he said:
"Mei'er, what do you want to eat, open it and take it yourself.
These are all brought back by your sister. ”
"Daddy, I know."
Yunmei's little hands skillfully untied the paper rope that tied the pastry, and suddenly, the neatly stacked square five-colored pastry appeared in front of everyone.
"Wow, there are five colors, red, green, pink, yellow, white, all different, they look good together."
Yunmei's eyes sparkled, staring at the five-colored pastry, unable to take her eyes off.
Chu Yue, who was on the side, saw that she glanced at Yunxi without moving, and saw that her face was calm, as if nothing had happened.
His sword eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly, walked up to Yunmei's side, naturally stretched out his hand, and took a piece with elegant movements.
When Yun Mei and Yun Song saw it, they both looked at him in surprise.
Seeing this, Chu Yue asked the two little guys with a smile as warm as a spring breeze:
"Brother, can I try it?"
Yun Mei felt a little pain, thinking that Chu Yue had brought gifts to her and her younger brother just now, she had a fleshy look on her face:
"Okay."
You got it all in your hands, and you asked me if I agreed, is there a person like you?
Yun Mei complained wildly in her heart.
Looking at the neat five-color pastries, there was one piece missing, Yunmei hurriedly divided a piece for everyone, and finally hid in the small stool next to Yunxi, carefully holding the few remaining five-color pastries to eat.
After Chu Yue tasted the five-color pastry, she immediately understood that this was the five-color hibiscus cake made by the Jade Point Gallery in Beijing.
He glanced at Yunxi casually and asked casually:
"The taste of this pastry is very special, not like this poor, uh Qingxi town can be made."
Receiving his brother's warning eyes, Chu Yue forcibly changed the poor ravine into Qingxi Town.
After saying that, I rolled my eyes in my heart.
After the other people in the room tasted the five-color pastry, they echoed Chu Yue's words:
"That's right, this taste is sweet but not greasy, glutinous and doesn't stick to the mouth, and it melts in your mouth."
"I've never eaten such a delicious pastry since I've grown so big."
"Yes, eldest sister, we're all stained with the light of the stream."
The second aunt was reluctant to finish eating so quickly, so she only took small bites, and used another one under her mouth to prevent the pastry crumbs.
Zhang Xiulan is the same, she doesn't dare to eat it so quickly, it's too delicious.
As she ate, she glanced at the other four packs on the table.
I secretly wondered, is the four bags of pastries the same as these five-color pastries?
Or is it something else?
The second uncle was eating small cakes, and he was thinking about the father and mother of the family, as well as the children and nephews of the family.
It would be nice if I could bring it back to them and give them a taste.
Yunxi sat in the corner and saw the expressions on everyone's faces in the room clearly.
After she heard Chu Yue's words, she didn't think much about it, and only said calmly:
"I went to Xia Mansion with Uncle Li today to see Mrs. Xia, and she was polite, and by the way, she asked me to wrap some pastries and bring them back for my family to taste."
"Old Madam Xia?"
Chu Yue groaned slightly, thinking of the old lady of Xia Mansion who had been away from Beijing for almost a year, and he didn't know if the old lady Xia in Yunxi's mouth was the old lady he thought, he didn't see the real person, he couldn't guess randomly.
Yunxi nodded:
"Hmm."
Then, he looked up at Chu Yue, who had been sitting without speaking.
In the usual tone, ask:
"Brother Chu, when will you come back, you won't leave for no reason, right?"
If she wants to leave, she can't come over to say hello, so her mother always asks her to go next door to see people come back and don't come back.
and Song'er and Mei'er's classes were all left behind.
As soon as Chu Yue heard that Yunxi cared about him, his eyes instantly glowed with dazzling starlight.
His voice was pleasant:
"I'm worried about you, I'll tell you before I go out in the future."
This time he was in a hurry, I thought that Yunxi would not care about his whereabouts, but I didn't expect Yunxi to still care about him, this discovery made Chu Yue feel that his efforts were not in vain.
Suddenly, the momentum was full.
Seeing Chu Yue's eyes shining and the corners of his mouth curled stupidly, Chu Yue on the side gave him a roll of his eyes angrily.
It's not promising, it's the prince of the palace, and he was actually fascinated by a little girl like this.
He regretted recognizing such a useless brother.
Zhang Xiulan and her second aunt Li Aihua and others couldn't help but smile happily on their faces when they heard Yunxi and Chu Yue talking to each other.
Xi'er is right like this.
expressed concern for Chu Yue, so that the two of them could have a future.
Zhang Xiulan has already begun to think about preparing a dowry for Yunxi in her heart.
Belch...... Yunxi heard that Chu Yue had misunderstood what she meant, but when she saw the other people in the room looking beaming and correcting Chu Yue's words, she was suddenly a little speechless.
"Alas, sister, there is still a layer of paper wrapped under this pastry paper?"
At this moment, Yunmei's surprised voice suddenly attracted everyone's attention.
"Wow, two silver tickets!"
Yun Song, who was standing next to Yun Mei, heard this, and hurriedly reached out to move the pastry aside, instantly revealing the silver ticket folded in half on the yellow paper.
"Sister, it's a silver ticket with a face value of one hundred."
Yun Song's eyes flashed with starlight, his little hand clutched the silver ticket tightly, and a gust of wind ran in front of Yun Xi and stuffed the silver ticket into Yun Xi's hand.
"It can't be that the old lady did it on purpose, right?"
Yunxi guessed.
Thinking that he hadn't divided the pastries with Dr. Li, Yunxi was suddenly annoyed.
He quickly got up, took two of the bags of pastries on the table, took the silver ticket, said hello to the people in the house, and then went out.
Chu Yue saw it and hurriedly chased after him.
"Xi'er, wait for me, I'll go with you."
When Yunxi and Chu Yue arrived at Renhe Hall, they didn't see Dr. Li, they only felt that the atmosphere in Renhe Hall was a little abnormal, so they pulled a medicine boy with a round face, lowered their voices and asked:
"What about Dr. Li and others, what happened to Renhetang, why did Uncle Li and Dr. Xu look stupid that someone had stolen money?"
"Doctor Yun, you don't know, that Miss Zhu just came to make trouble again, saying that if she didn't remove the black mole on her face within three days, then she would let Renhetang be demolished."
