"Oops! My good girl, I miss you! Let the milk see if she's fat? It's grown! What's your brother, has he grown up? Is there a girl in the capital who catches your eye? Mrs. Niu asked continuously.

Fang Yue smiled and said, "Milk, do you see that I am fat?" My brother is still like that, he has grown, and the new clothes that my mother made for my brother are short before I get on! My dad didn't come back until after the exam.

Milk, why are you late? Didn't you say you were going to accompany my dad to the exam! Milk, who's coming? Changbao talks about milk every day, why hasn't the milk arrived, has the second uncle come? Did the second aunt bring Brother Changxi here? Is it lively for the second sister to get married? It's uncomfortable to think about it, and it's a pity that I couldn't watch Sister Erniu come out of the cabinet. ”

Mrs. Niu and Fang Yue held hands and walked inside, "Why don't I want to come early?" Years ago, you wrote letter after letter, and the village was busy.

The carriages that delivered cakes to the counties were all used, and they were all pulled to Ningyuan City. Later, I pulled the goods back and forth and sent them, and the medicinal tea that had been stored for a year was sold out, and our cakes were baked and sent there.

You don't know yet! The pebbles baked from the bran and wheat bran in our household can be exchanged for a sheep for two pieces, and the honey here can be exchanged for a small piece of gold. ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Niu took it out of her arms and took out a piece of gold to show Fang Yue, "What's the matter?" Isn't Huang Chengcheng good-looking? ”

Fang Yue asked in a low voice, "Milk, are you carrying gold all the way?" ”

Mrs. Niu patted her waist, "Our waist is very strong, and there is a Leping dart game along the way, what am I afraid of?" For an old lady like me, no one takes a second look at her when she sleeps on the ground. ”

Fang Yue laughed out loud and was slapped by Mrs. Niu, "Don't laugh, you can see your throat and eyes, Mama Qi has told me many times, I'm afraid that you will be unruly if you leave her." ”

Fang Mingyuan stood up, pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground, Chang'an followed and knelt down, "Chang'an greets grandmother, grandmother is well." ”

"Mother has worked hard all the way! The son greets his mother. ”

Mrs. Niu smiled and said, "Well, good, good!" Hurry up! The fourth is lying down, the exam is very tired, what is going on this time? ”

Fang Mingyuan looked at the sky and said, "Who knows what the person who reads the paper thinks, it's all written anyway." ”

Mrs. Niu didn't ask any more, "Come with me, I'll come to the garden when I come in, your second brother and second sister-in-law will go to find your daughter-in-law, let's go back to the house and chat." ”

In the courtyard of the main house, Kang Kang and Ji Ran both came over, saw Mrs. Niu coming in, and gave Mrs. Niu a salute in turn.

"Whose girl is this, she's so handsome!" Mrs. Niu reached out to support Ji Ran's arm and asked her to get up and sit down.

Dong Xiaoying told Fang Yue about picking persimmons and later cooperating with Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Niu smiled, "I know, Leping's Baiwei Building is your house, isn't it?" ”

Ji Ran said yes with a smile. Zhao smiled and said, "It's really in response to the words of the chick, who said that women are inferior to men?" I've heard before that the owner of Xiujinfang is a female household, and it is really not easy to run such a large industry. ”

Cai Kun ran all the way into the main courtyard, and when he entered the house, he knelt on the ground, "Grandmother is far away, and my grandson-in-law can't meet him at the door, so he should be punished!" ”

"Oops! Hurry up, what's this for? You've just finished the exam, don't kneel, get up and sit down and talk. Mrs. Niu stood up and gave her a hand.

Kang Rongping retired in person, and Mrs. Niu smiled and said, "Kang Kang! You have brought you things at home, and they have all been handed over to Mr. Fu, so go and take a look. ”

Ji Ran smiled and confessed to the people in the house and withdrew.

The family sat around talking, and Mrs. Niu talked about the excitement of a mutual market in Ningyuan City, and without waiting for Fang Mingyuan to ask, she beckoned Xing Niangzi to come in.

"Your kid is really, he can't tell the difference between wheat seedlings and weeds, and he has no tricks in his school, so he has added a lesson in digging wild vegetables. Before I came, your baby was carrying half a basket of wild vegetables, so I had to bring them to you to see. ”

Xing Niangzi said with a tearful smile, "He has never planted land, and he has always been in the capital with me, but he has never seen wheat seedlings and wild vegetables!" ”

The daughters-in-law who squeezed her son to Fenggu Town outside the door, Mrs. Niu beckoned them to come in, and told with a smile.

As soon as I went, I was happy and ran all over the mountain. Living in the dormitory of the school, a kang can sleep six boys, the covers are made of new cotton, and the mattress weighs eight pounds. Don't worry, let's eat with the village in school, what we eat, the boys will eat, we can have a meal of meat and vegetables a day, and the belly of the meal is round.

The entrance exam is not good, and some of them can recognize a few words, and they are all divided into the first grade. After school in the morning, I know that I will go back to the village to help with the work, and when I get up in the morning, I know that I sweep the yard of the school, and I am a sensible baby! ”

The daughters-in-law asked nonsense, and Mrs. Niu left with someone as she spoke, without Dong Xiaoying's arrangement, Mrs. Niu was taken to the prepared backyard and sat on the kang to chat with people.

Mrs. Niu went out, Fang Mingyuan asked about the situation in the town, Fang Mingquan told Fang Mingyuan in detail about the mutual market, and told Fang Mingyuan not to worry, we didn't lose any money this time, and the patriarch also said that he would buy two more houses in the capital.

"Fourth brother, let's exchange a lot of gold this time, and the patriarch of the village can't sleep, so let me bring it, saying that the fourth brother has to do great things here, and he can't be short of money."

Fang Mingyuan was speechless, he had never seen such a patriarch, "Okay, let me go here first, there is indeed a shortage of money here." ”

Zhao and Dong Xiaoying whispered about the second girl's family affairs, and the second girl's dowry was carried out to make a show, and the gold bracelet was married to several pairs.

"I don't know, Erniu has saved up that old money over the years, and she doesn't want the silver I gave, I don't want her to be too little! Who knew that Stinky Nizi didn't say a word, and took out two hundred taels of silver ingots, isn't it annoying? ”

Dong Xiaoying said, "The girls in our village do needlework, and in the past few years, the caravan has bought a lot of furs, cloaks, gloves, and ear buns, so you won't count?" You didn't give the second girl a box of silver? ”

Zhao smiled and said, "The bride price sent by my uncle's family, I will exchange it for our silver ingots, plus the silver of the second girl's private house." I gave Erniu a silver ticket in private, and the money couldn't all be put on the bright side, so I told her to keep a private room in her hand. ”

Dong Xiaoying laughed at Zhao's not teaching children well, but Zhao said that she was taught by her mother.

Mrs. Niu didn't eat lunch at home, so she asked Fang Ming to set up a full car, she was going to talk to Mrs. Hu, and stay in the Guogong Mansion for a few days and come back.

Fang Mingquan and the Zhao family said that they would not live in Fang Mingyuan's house, and the two of them moved to Miliang Lane to live.

Fang Yue went out with Ji Ran in the afternoon, sent Ji Ran's sister home, and returned to the mansion by the way.

After dinner, Dong Xiaoying and Fang Mingyuan walked in the garden with lanterns, and sighed, "Old Fang, why do you think we have come to this point?" It's like a dream, I came to the capital, I lived in a mansion, and there were servants all over the yard, if someone told me this a year ago, I wouldn't believe it. ”

Fang Mingyuan looked at the starry sky and said, "Who knows?" I didn't know if I could pass the test, I was carried all the way, I had never been a leader, and I stumbled and settled down with the whole village.

You may not believe it, but I don't want to be a jinshi or an official at all. I feel that teaching children in the village, listening to the patriarch and the third uncle arguing, and watching the people in the village busy making money, I feel comfortable and have a sense of security. ”

Dong Xiaoying said, "People are social creatures, they like to get together, and they don't like to be alone. I also think that the capital is not good, it is not lively at all, and I don't know what to do for a day? Well? You say, what is the girl like in Zimu? ”

Fang Mingyuan carried the lantern to illuminate it, turned his head to stare at his daughter-in-law and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"I think it's weird for Qi Mu to be our daughter-in-law." Dong Xiaoying raised her eyebrows and smiled.

Fang Mingyuan shook his head, "Don't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum, I can see Chang'an, he would rather not marry a daughter-in-law than compromise." However, I think Chang'an and Ji Ran have a lot of chat. ”

"Ji Ran only quit a few years ago. I don't dislike people to quit their relatives, and there are many people who fall in love and break up in modern times. I just think that Ji Ran is too rich, and I have a weak heart when I marry such a God of Wealth grandmother. ”

Fang Mingyuan laughed, "Look! Chang'an said who he liked, let's talk about proposing marriage. ”
