Anyway, the four of them know each other, among several people, Gu Chongyang is the oldest, thirteen years old this year, his family lives in the capital, his father is on an errand in Shuntian Mansion, and he is in charge of thirty or forty servants, mainly responsible for the security of the city.

Li Mingxiu and Zhuo Bufan are both twelve years old, but his birthday is two months younger, his family is a tofu stall, his father makes tofu, his mother sells tofu, and he runs a small business.

Zhuo Bufan is not a native of the capital, his ancestors are from Baoding, Hebei, and he is a big family in the local area, with 100 acres of fertile land and an orchard at home, although he is not as good as those who are really rich, but he is also a rich man, because Zhuo Bufan showed his talent in Go when he was very young, and the old lady of the Zhuo family decided to send him to the capital to learn Go, hoping that Zhuo Bufan can get ahead, glorify his ancestors, and let the Zhuo family get rid of the titles of "soil rich man" and "soil bun". Zhuo Bufan also has two younger brothers, because he often has to take care of his younger brother, so he has a gentle temperament, is reasonable, careful, and easy to get along with. The three of them all passed the exam the year before last to enter the Zheng family, and in the past two years, they have become friends who talk about everything.

Maybe it's in the Zheng family's life circle of learning chess is very small, and the only people you can usually see are the disciples who learn chess together, the teacher and the housekeeper who is responsible for managing this courtyard, a fresh person arrives, and the three of them are very happy, and they are very happy to help this little brother who is four or five years old, at the moment Gu Chongyang and Li Mingxiu stayed in the house to continue cleaning, and Zhuo Bufan took Tan Xiaotian to find Lao Yang to receive basic daily necessities.

It's time for dinner. The Jiang family's restaurant was very lively, and the large round table where ten people sat was full of Jiang family members, with staggered cups and laughter, but it turned out that Jiang Dinghai, the second son of the Jiang family who had traveled in Anhui, came back today, so Jiang Yongnian set up a family banquet. During the banquet, Jiang Dinghai's six-year-old grandson Jiang Chunhua performed a piece of Anhui Huangmei tune that he had just learned, his voice was immature, but his expression was extremely serious. The others also laughed very comfortably, but behind the smile, Jiang Dingshan and his wife had a little bitterness.

The husband and wife are in their forties this year and have been married for 30 years, but they have no children, and there is only one daughter under their knees, Jiang Li'er, and since Jiang Li'er died of dystocia, the two have never had children. If there are no children, there will be no next generation. Seeing that his younger brother, who is two years younger than himself, has grandchildren, it is inevitable that he will not be sad. For this reason, the wife, who was already angry about the death of her daughter, complained a lot about her husband, angry that he should throw away the child born to his daughter ruthlessly, otherwise, his grandson would be eight or nine years old by now. When you have a child playing around, do you still need to watch the eyes of other people's next generation?

Jiang Dingshan did not regret his wife's complaints, because his daughter died in childbirth, his brain was hot, and he vented all his anger on the newborn baby. So much so that she made a big mistake and asked the midwife to abandon the baby in the wilderness, and then calmed down and waited until she sent someone to look for it, but the news was that the place where the midwife abandoned the baby was only the bloodstained baby in tatters, and it was estimated that the baby had been eaten by wild dogs. At this time, it was too late to regret it, and in the face of his wife's complaints, he could only endure it, and now he watched other people's grandsons play treasure and amuse in front of his grandparents and grandmothers, and the sentimentality in his heart can be imagined.

"Hehe, what a good grandson, sing so well, come, let grandma hug me." After singing the song, Mrs. Jiang took the lead in applauding, pulled her great-grandson into her arms and kissed him fiercely, with endless smiles in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"Grandma, what kind of dish is this?" Leaning on the old lady's arms, Jiang Chunhua pointed to a plate of emerald vegetables on the table and asked curiously.

"This, this is called bracken, also known as bracken, dragon head vegetable, is a kind of wild vegetable, growing in the shallow mountainous area to the sunny plot, can eat is the young leaf bud part that has not been expanded, before eating it is scalded with boiling water, and then immersed in cold water to remove the peculiar smell, and then soaked in aged vinegar, plus sesame oil, and then mixed with condiments, cool and delicious, the taste is fragrant and smooth, delicious, good grandchildren, grandma will give you a bite to taste." Mrs. Jiang said with a smile, picked up the chopsticks and stuffed some bracken into the child's mouth, the child opened his mouth to catch the bracken, chewed a few bites and swallowed it.

"How? Is it tasty? The old lady asked with concern.

"It's delicious, I want it more." The child nodded, shouted loudly, and opened his mouth casually, asking the grandmother to continue feeding the vegetables.

"Hehe, okay, come, take another bite. You know that you like to eat wild vegetables, so you should buy more today. Sun An. The old lady fed her great-grandson another bite of food, and muttered that when people get older, the focus of their lives will be shifted to their children and grandchildren, and when she saw that her great-grandson was delicious, she raised her voice and shouted.

"What do you command, old lady?" Steward Sun, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly took a few steps forward and bent down and asked.

"Where did you get this dish today? It tastes good, and I will buy it from that next time. The old lady said.

"Back to the old lady, this was bought from Wulizhuang in the east of the city, and when I bought it, it was just pulled out of the ground, and there was still dew on it. If you like it, you'll buy it there next time. Steward Sun replied, for the sake of merit, he didn't even care about common sense - he went out of the city to buy vegetables in the afternoon, at that time, what kind of vegetables can keep the dew for a day?

"Hehe, mother, don't be too used to children, Wulizhuang is not close to the city, isn't it just a wild vegetable, it's not worth running so far." Jiang Dinghai said with a smile - this is a big fish and big meat, children are tired of eating too many delicacies from the mountains and seas, and occasionally eat wild vegetables and feel fresh, really let him eat, and he will definitely not be able to stand it after a few times.

"Hehe, that's the same, Sun An, it's really hard for you to go out of the city to buy groceries." The old lady said with a smile.

"It's not hard, it's not hard, it's Sun An's business, but then again, when I went out of the city to buy vegetables this afternoon, I met the second housekeeper of the Zheng family." Steward Sun hurriedly expressed his loyalty, and then said. (To be continued......)
