Early the next morning, Wen Shu got up early to wash up and rushed to the tea shed, when she arrived, Zhao Niangzi was still waiting on the side of the road, holding a sleeping dog in her arms.

Wen Shu hurriedly rushed forward and complained slightly: "Why did my sister-in-law come so early, didn't she say that she would come to work at the hour." ”

Zhao Niangzi smiled embarrassedly, "Wake up early, and if you can't sleep, you just come over." ”

"How long have you been waiting? It's cool in the morning, don't freeze the dog's eggs," Wen Shu said as he touched the dog's exposed hands.

It's really a little cool to the touch.

"Ouch, this hand is not hot, hurry, hurry inside, I'll cook a bowl of ginger soup." As he spoke, he turned around and went to open the door, and he didn't forget to say: "Sister-in-law won't be like this in the future, I don't have so much to do, so I don't have to be so early." ”

She was afraid that Zhao Niangzi was too late for her scruples, so she was reprimanded by her, so she hurriedly talked about it.

Mrs. Zhao was grateful for her kindness, but she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, she was afraid that it would be too late, and it was one thing for the owner to have a whisper, but the most important thing was that she didn't want to face that family.

After Da Lang went, only her and the dog were left in the huge house, and it was inevitable that she would be miserable, and then look at those old things from the past, and feel even more panicked.

"I really can't stay at home, if the little proprietor thinks it's appropriate, it's better to give me the key, so that I'll come early, and I can burn the tea soup first."

As soon as Wen Shu heard that it was reasonable, and it was cold in the morning and evening, she was waiting outside with the child in her arms, which was really not a problem, so she took a handful from the keychain on her body and handed it to her.

Zhao Niangzi took the key, carefully hid it, and carried the sleeping dog to the grass house behind to sleep, and then put on an apron and went to the front neatly and neatly busy.

There was no grand event today, the official road was deserted, Wen Shu only steamed a basket of steamed buns, and then stopped, and Erchen soup and Grandma tea only boiled about half a bucket.

Speaking of yesterday's good start, it was really borrowed from the light of the Jinmingchi event, if according to the official market in the past, it would be good to earn a hundred and eighty Wen.

After doing this, the sun was already out, but there was not a single customer in the tea shop.

Zhao Niangzi was a little anxious, afraid that there would be no guests, Wen Shu would not invite her, and hurriedly walked out of the tea shed to stand on the side of the official road, looking at both sides, thinking that if she saw someone, she would greet her, and maybe she could pick up two.

It's a pity that she stood for a quarter of an hour, but two or three people in the past were all carrying burdens into the city to sell vegetables, either having breakfast at home, or carrying bread on their bodies, blowing and walking.

In short, not a single guest was picked up.

Wen Shu was in a very good mood, seeing her anxiously looking left and right, he took off the apron around his waist, and went out to greet with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't be a god here, while there is no one at the moment, let's remove the weeds next to the land shrine and offer another pillar of incense, maybe the land guild will bless us like clouds." She winked playfully.

Seeing that she was really not in a hurry, Zhao Niangzi's anxious heart calmed down a little, and said with a smile: "The little owner has a clever plan." ”

With that, the two of them went to the land shrine.

The land shrine is only a hundred steps away from the tea shed, the temple is three feet high, two feet wide, there is a serious statue of the god sitting in it, there is a table table more than one foot high in front of the statue, it is full of dust, and there is not even an incense burner in addition, let alone incense.

Wen Shu couldn't help but sigh when he saw it: "It's also a god, how can it be so cold." ”

Zhao Niangzi listened and replied: "This ancestral hall was originally built by our village, but later the village moved to the opposite side, because it was inconvenient to worship on the official road, so a new ancestral hall was rebuilt at the head of the village, and no one took care of the old ancestral hall. Last time, the dog was seriously ill, and I was desperate to kneel and beg the gods, but unexpectedly, the father-in-law of the land really appeared and sent a small proprietor to help me. ”

She said, with a grateful look on her face, "After the dog was cured, I came here with incense and candles to make a vow, and at that time there were still cobwebs around this statue, so it was really a desert. At that time, the surrounding area was also overgrown with weeds as it is now, and I pulled it once, but I didn't expect that two or three months later, it would grow so tall again. "Twelve Literary Network

I see, the strange road passed by that time, the front of the land shrine took on a new look, and incense was still burning on the ground in front of the statue.

"Since my sister-in-law said so, then we have to clean up better." Wen Shu winked at her playfully, then folded his hands and bowed three times to the land shrine: "The tea shed is built here, and I hope that the land father-in-law will take care of it in the future." ”

Seeing this, Zhao Niangzi couldn't help but bow down.

Next, the two worked together, one pulled the grass in front of the temple, and the other pulled the back of the temple.

Hearing the sound, Zhao Niangzi was overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and looked towards the official road on the left, but saw three carriages coming slowly from the other end of the official road, and the black horse in the lead was shiny, and at a glance, she knew that she usually served very well.

Zhao Niangzi threw down the grass at hand and wanted to say hello, but Wen Shu called out to her and told her to wait.

In her opinion, the people who can use horse-drawn carts are definitely the families of the rich or the eunuchs, who are more picky about food and drink, and are generally not likely to look down on roadside tea shops unless necessary.

Although she didn't understand what she meant, since the little proprietor had spoken, Zhao Niangzi didn't insist, so she squatted back and continued to pull the grass.

After a while, the carriage drove forward, passing by them, a seven or eight-year-old girl looked out of the car window, saw Wen Shu and them squatting on the ground and pulling grass, and couldn't help but ask the nurse next to her: "Mama, what are those two ladies doing, are they farming?" ”

The nurse looked at it and said with a smile: "Oh, it's just pulling grass." ”

"Isn't pulling grass just farming? The Master said that we must weed before planting. ”

"Uh.... Farming is to pull grass, but pulling grass is not only farming, the girl saw that the land shrine did not exist, then the two ladies should clean up the dojo for the gods. ”

"Oh, that's right." The little girl nodded as if she didn't understand.

At this time, there were suddenly a few children's cries in the carriage in front of her, and the little girl suddenly became anxious and exclaimed: "Oh, why is the fourth brother crying again, is it uncomfortable again?" ”

The nurse looked down and whispered: "Maybe it's urine, the girl don't go any further, be careful and be disciplined again." ”

When she heard this, the little girl lowered her head in frustration.

Seeing this, the nurse sighed lightly, hugged her in her arms, and comforted: "I'm about to enter Beijing to see the master, and the master still likes the girl very much." ”

"yes, Daddy really likes me?" The little girl's eyes flashed with dazzling anticipation.

"Uh... Of course, our girl is so painful, sir... Would love it for sure. As she spoke, the nurse's voice gradually lowered.

"Oops, why did you throw up again, this...."

"Madam, there is a tea house next to it, why don't we get out of the car and let the store get some hot water and scrub and scrub the fourth brother."

"Come on, let the driver pull over."

"Yes."

Although Mrs. Zhao has been pulling grass in her hands, her eyes have never left the carriage from beginning to end, and when she saw the carriage stop in front of the tea shed, she said happily: "Little boss, they are down." ”
