Chapter 11: The Brothers Are Back

It has been a while since the rescue of people, and the day after tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, the day before yesterday, some people went to the county to sell persimmons and some mountain goods, and some people brought a message back for their legendary brother.

A slightly bloated woman, with a little dark skin on her face, looked like she had been working in the field all the year round, twisting her hips in the direction of the village, and was coming in the direction of her house, and saw Tang Yuehua standing in the yard turning persimmons, "Yo, Ah Yue, I'm flipping persimmons, it should be dried in a day or two." This method is really thanks to your mother, otherwise the people of Meishan Village wouldn't be able to live so well! The woman's voice was loud and urgent, and she looked in a good mood, and it seemed that her persimmons should be sold for a good price.

The visitor was still carrying a string of venison in his hand, and wanted to hand it to her, but he did not reach out to take it. Then he turned and went back to the house, and brought out two stools, and gave them to the woman and motioned for her to sit.

Yuehua smiled at the visitor, pretending to be shy, and continued to move his hands, turning over the persimmons. Looking at the pair of plain white hands in the middle of a bunch of orange-red persimmons, I felt a little pity, this girl was raised by their family really well, but it was a pity that she had a face, black and yellow and full of terrifying spots, if it weren't for this, she would definitely be a handsome girl in a few years.

"Chunxiang, Chunxiang" shouted twice at the top of her throat, but didn't get a response, so she turned her head and asked, "Ah Yue, is your mother at home?" ”。 She nodded, went into the house, poured a cup of tea, and brought it to the woman.

"Good boy, I'm so polite with my aunt." As he spoke, he took the clay cup in the girl's hand with satisfaction, sat on the stool with a golden knife, and waited for Ah Yue's mother to come out.

"Sister-in-law, you're here." Ah Yue's mother greeted the people, walked to the well, bent down and took the gourd scoop into the wooden bucket to scoop water and wash her hands.

"Ah Yueniang, your family Mingwen and Mingwu said that they would come back for the Double Ninth Festival, and the gentlemen from their academy also came together." The woman took the bowl and was about to get up from the stool.

Your own brothers are coming back? Tang Yuehua still has some expectations in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, you sit." As he spoke, he sat down on a stool next to her. "Hey, in previous years, they had to climb with the gentlemen in the academy during Chongyang, and they also had to visit some scholars, but this year they actually went to Meishan to climb the heights."

"I heard that it's because this year there is a powerful monk in Meishan Temple in our back mountain, saying that the great monk Buddha what, the law or something, it means that it is very powerful, and the gentlemen of the clear text want to come and say some scriptures or something to the great monk."

"I see, then I have to hurry up and prepare, this is the first time that their husband has come to our house." Ah Yue's mother began to think about what to add to her house so as not to lose her manners.

"Now, our Meishan is also famous, I heard that there are many squires, rich and old men who want to come to listen to the great monk's lectures, but the great monk did not agree." That tanned face was full of pride.

Tang Yuehua felt a little strange in her heart, listening to the meaning of this aunt, the monk seemed to have a good background, although the people here were very pious, but those old men came to listen to the scriptures and said that they didn't need to listen to the monk's opinion.

"On the first day of the new year this month, aren't we still going to listen to the scriptures together?" Tang Yuehua's mother felt a little strange.

"That's because Meishan Temple is in our back mountain, so people in our village can go inside to burn incense and listen to the scriptures during the Buddha Festival."

"I see." His mother nodded.

"Chunxiang, this year's persimmons are selling very well, I heard that those nobles like our Meishan persimmons very much, thanks to you, now we can have some money left after paying the field rent, I also pulled the cloth back in the county, ready to make a few clothes for our little bandits." His face was full of joy.

"Everywhere, everyone figured it out together." Ah Yue's mother said modestly.

"I'm telling the truth, you didn't come up with it first, and I told you the trick, unlike some people who are very stingy, and they hide every trick, for fear that others will rob her of her wealth. When someone asks a question, it's like cutting her flesh, yin and yang weird! The eldest aunt's face was indignant.

Tang Yuehua's mother brushed the hair around her ear, pretending not to understand, and didn't answer her words.

The eldest aunt was in a hurry to talk for a while, so she said this, she knew that Ah Yue's mother's mouth was the tightest, and she didn't like to chew the root of her tongue.

"Chunxiang, I have to go back too, there are still things boiling in the pot at home, we went to the county this time and bought some white noodles back, cheaper and better than the town, if you want to use it, come to our house to get some back, this is the deer that we are in charge of, and there are still some leftovers after selling." As he spoke, he handed the pickled venison in his hand to Ah Yue's mother.

"Sister-in-law, this is unacceptable, this is too precious. Besides, you already gave us some wild boar last time. "In this era, meat is a valuable material, and the common people only cut a little meat to open the meat during the New Year's Festival, and some people don't even see a meat all year round.

"You did us all a favor, and I didn't buy my things, so you just take them, or I'll be angry." A look that can't be refused.

The two of them changed from sitting to standing, each other, you retreat, I advance, I retreat, a long toss, and finally the eldest aunt said, "The next time there is a long holiday, ask your family Mingwen or Mingwu to give our little bandits to recognize and read, don't push." "The eldest aunt has the final word.

His mother did not refuse, took the meat in the hands of the eldest aunt, at this time reading and literacy is a luxury and great thing, few children in the countryside can go to school, and there are two children in the county who go to school in their own family, even if they have no fame in the future, the villagers think that it is okay for the brother of the sixth room to write a document or read some deeds and the like, which is a very important thing for them.

"Then I'll take it."

"Well, that's right. Then I'll go back, and I'm reluctant to go back after chatting, and our family head may also come back. Looking at the sky, it was almost noon, and the eldest aunt twisted her plump buttocks and went back.

It turns out that this aunt's family still has people who can hunt, no wonder ......, well, the food is good.

"Mother, my brother is coming back?" Tang Yuehua was a little excited, she was finally going to meet the other two members of the family.

"Yes, they will definitely bring delicious food back to Ah Yue, your brother taught you last time, remember? Your brother said he was going to check it out. ”

"What, what words?" Tang Yuehua said that she didn't know anything!
