Chapter Seventy-One: Seeking an errand
Coming out of the study, Ping An happened to meet Ye Wanwan, with a pale face, she looked at the direction of the study, and asked arrogantly, "What is the master looking for you?" ”
Ping'an didn't hide it from her, and told her Ma Zhancai's plan in detail.
Ye Wanwan's face became more and more excited, she turned her head to look at Ping An and smiled: "Hmph, sacrificing a child in exchange for Ye Chuliang's death, I think it's worth it." ”
"Young grandma, there will be an opportunity to help the Ma family add children and grandchildren in the future, so you still need to recuperate, now that the weather is getting colder, it is better for the young grandmother to stay in the house." Ping An said with concern.
Ye Wanwan glanced at him impatiently, although she was unwilling in her heart, but in the end, she still held Ping'an's raised wrist and turned around and walked towards the bedroom.
"Ping'an, you should understand what I want the result most from young grandma, right?" Ye Wanwan pretended not to care and said.
Ping'an bent his waist lower, "The slave understands, the young grandmother can rest assured, this time the slave will go to Lord Jiang, and he will definitely not live up to the expectations of the master and the young grandmother." ”
"That's good......"
Ye Duwan's voice went farther and farther, and there were clouds floating in the sky, and the moon, which was still bright, was now covered by dark clouds, and because of this, the earth immediately lost its brightness.
The next day it was overcast, and a cool breeze blew in the air, which dispelled a lot of the summer heat at once.
During the day, Sikong Yu continued to go to Aunt Huang'er's house to teach her sixteen-year-old son Huang Xiaoqiu to write, and when she came back in the evening, she sorted out the recipes dictated by Ye Chuliang, and her life was stable.
When he came to Aunt Huang's house today, he felt that something was wrong.
Huang Xiaoqiu sat at the table with her head drooping, and Aunt Huang was raising her hand and tapping heavily in his ear several times.
"I said that you have studied something for so long, and yesterday you had the opportunity to find a good job, why did you ......" Aunt Huang said angrily.
Xiaoqiu shook her head and said, "It's not that you made me so stupid." ”
Huang Xiaoqiu spoke, and Sikong Yu followed into the door.
Although Aunt Huang'er's family is not a big family, but in Xiantang Village, her family still has some foundations, after all, Huang Xiaoqiu's father also accumulated some wealth for the family when he was alive, but in the past few years, natural disasters have continued, and her family has begun to decline, and there is no strong man in the family, which will still have some impact.
Aunt Huang gave Wu Bing a gift before, hoping to find a position for Huang Xiaoqiu, but he was weak and illiterate, so he delayed.
Yesterday, she had a relationship in the county again, and wanted to go to the government to get an errand, but she didn't think about it, and Huang Xiaoqiu, who was not angry, messed up again.
Aunt Huang saw Sikong Yu and looked unhappy, "I said Mr. Sikong, can you teach or not, our family invited you to come is not a mess, until now Xiaoqiu still can't write his name, are you too incompetent to be a gentleman?" ”
Sikong Yu looked at Huang Xiaoqiu with some doubts, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart: The name would have been written a long time ago...... Number One
"I don't care, you have to teach him to write his name today, or you'll get out of here." Aunt Huang'er glared after speaking, then snorted heavily and left.
Sikong Yu sat down beside Huang Xiaoqiu and asked suspiciously, "The name would have been written a long time ago, why would it suddenly not be written again?" ”
Huang Xiaoqiu kept looking at Aunt Huang from the corner of his eyes, and then he sneakily got up and closed the door, and then said in a low voice: "Mr. Sikong doesn't know, my mother wants me to go to the government to find an errand, who are the people there, all of them are shrewd people, and they are proficient in calculations everywhere behind them, I am their opponent." ”
"The government office, which government are you going to?" Sikong Yu asked curiously.
"It's Chongtian Mansion, I heard that the Mansion Yin in that Mansion is still our boss in Wuzhi County, I can't even mix in Huanxi Town, wouldn't it be even more bullied if I go there." Huang Xiaoqiu's eyes flickered, "When they asked me to write my name, I drew a random picture, hehe, they really don't want me anymore." ”
Sikong Yu shook his head helplessly and said, "You, your mother is also looking for you an errand for your own good, how can you live up to her kindness." ”
"I just want to stay at home and farm, Mr. Sikong, do you know, our Huang family also has its own field, but my mother is not in good health and can't go to the field, plus the previous land has not been harvested, so it has been deserted there, I think with my ability, I will definitely make that land come to life again." Huang Xiaoqiu said with a serious face, "Just like the Ye family's sister Chu Liang, didn't she also make a barren mountain full of life." ”
As soon as Ye Chuliang was mentioned, Huang Xiaoqiu had a look of adoration on his face.
"However, it takes a lot of energy, you see that you are so weak, how can you do farm work." Sikong Yu said and pinched his small arm.
Huang Xiaoqiu immediately pretended to be very powerful, and said arrogantly: "Don't underestimate me, even a woman like Sister Chu Liang can do farm work, can I still do it as a man?" ”
Sikong Yu couldn't help but smile, and then said helplessly: "It's a good thing to have ambitions, but if your mother has to let you enter the government, what should you do?" ”
"Then let's do it against her, anyway, she can't help me, at most it's just a quarrel, and after the quarrel, you still have to listen to me for everything, after all, I'm the only man in the family." After Huang Xiaoqiu finished speaking, he didn't forget to scold twice.
"If you're going to do that, won't I lose my job?" Sikong Yu shrugged helplessly.
Huang Xiaoqiu propped one hand on the table, and then after thinking thoughtfully, his face suddenly changed, and he said happily: "This is easy to do, anyway, my mother depends on me for everything, if she wants to drive you away, I will make trouble, until she leaves you, what's the matter?" ”
"Will it work?"
"Of course it works, I've tried this method many times, but I have a condition, if you leave it, you must teach me how to farm, and how to make good food, I heard that Sister Chu Liang's cooking is delicious, I also have to learn, not only can I support myself in the future, but also make money to live and beg my daughter-in-law, it's just beautiful." Huang Xiaoqiu smiled smartly.
Sikong Yu was a little embarrassed, "But in addition to being able to read and write, I don't know how to do these things you said, how can I teach you?" ”
"Then why don't you cover me, and I'll sneak up the mountain during the day to learn from Sister Chu Liang in person." Huang Xiaoqiu's eyes turned again.
"Isn't this a lie, no, how can a person who reads a book tell a lie."
"You can pull it down, it's me who lies, it's not you, why are you in a hurry." Huang Xiaoqiu said after giving him a disdainful look.
