Chapter 41 Fields, New Fans

"Qi You, in half a month, the field will have to be ploughed up by Brother Chen and Second Brother, you should look at the foot of the mountain when you come, and listen to Sister Cai say that Brother Chen is putting a trap there today, if you see it, tell him. When I came back in the evening to send Zhiyuan over, I also told Daddy Li. ”

Halfway through the spring return, I thought of this stubble and said that after a few rains in the spring, the matter of the fields will be put on the agenda. Last year, Yuli Zheng made a note of the establishment of the tenant field, and now she can relax about this field, concentrate on setting up a stall with the Cai family, if she has the leisure to put those fresh food in the town stall to sell, and then carefully ponder Miss Guo's noodles.

Without waiting for Qi You to return, Chun Gui continued: "Let's share some seeds in the past, Daddy Li didn't share more seeds when he sold the field, and the Chen family is two hunters, and the character of the two families is trustworthy, so our family simply entrusts this matter to it." ”

There is a give-and-take, since she has taken the path of the imperial examination, she has two tasks at hand, so she should choose between the two.

Qi You nodded: "Sister Chun is right, so let's do it, I'll go over the seeds in the evening." When the weather improves, let Brother Chen and Father Li dry the seeds together, and Sister Chun will have one less thing to do here. ”

Chun Gui remembered something, and pointed to the back of the door: "Speaking of seeds, Daddy Li also sent some taro over yesterday, in such a freezing weather, the taro grew in the old house next door to his house and sprouted early and bore fruit." I left some of them for us to eat, and the rest of them were used as seeds, and when some of them sprouted, they were planted at the door. ”

The two of them had a discussion, and they didn't notice the gradual silence of Zhixing on the other side.

It wasn't until the two finished speaking that Qi You glanced at him and opened his mouth to Chungui.

Chungui scolded him thoroughly last year, and brought back the right way to study, and now he can send Zhiping, who is only six years old after the New Year, to a private school, you can imagine the importance she attaches to the matter of studying, if today Zhixing made a decision to postpone the township test to two years later, Chungui may be angry.

He put down the bowl and recounted what Qi Xiucai said today, Zhixing straightened his back when he heard it, and looked tentatively at Chungui's reaction.

He thought that Chungui would hesitate a little, but he didn't expect her to be happy: "Qi Xiucai really said that?" Can you pass the test with certainty? ”

Qi You was also stunned, and then nodded: "That's what the teacher said, Sister Chun, ...... that township test"

"Cheng Chengcheng, I'll go back and give Qi Xiucai a backup gift, and then we'll send it over together after the hospital test!" Before Qi You finished speaking, she interrupted: "No, you have to have two copies, the two of you." ”

"No, no, no! Three copies, Zhiping's stinky boy may make more trouble in the future, prepare one more, and Qi Xiucai is embarrassed to drive people back to me. ”

Her bad mood comes and goes quickly, but she can be happy for a long time when she encounters happy things, and she doesn't care about Zhiping being left behind.

Zhixing and Qiyou glanced at each other, and there was helplessness in their eyes.

Qi You thought about it, but put down the bowl and directly clarified the matter.

"Sister Chun, I think so, if it is the August Township Examination directly after the hospital examination, Qi You and I have to go to Beijing to catch the exam, if the money at home is not enough, or I or Zhixing will only go to one."

Chungui waved his hand and didn't care: "What are you doing with only one?" It's safer for you two to be a companion together, this Kyoto is more than half a month's drive away from us, how can I rest assured that you will go alone. ”

"Originally, I was worried that Zhixing would have to keep filial piety, and I could only stay at home and wait for two years after the college exam, but if there is a new policy, it will be better."

Zhixing immediately raised his eyes, and the apprehension in his heart faded little by little. Although he jumped out on weekdays, but after studying for so many years, the ultimate goal was to get ahead and fight for his family, but if he caused trouble to his sister-in-law in the imperial examination, it would be better to wait a few more years.

After Chun Gui's happiness passed, her brain cleared up, she looked at Zhixing, who was holding back excitement and apprehension, and then looked at Qi You, who was quiet, and she understood why the two of them reacted this way after a little thought.

"Now there is still half a year until August, and my cooperation with Miss Guo has just begun, why are you worried that your family has no money." She said and laughed a few times: "You two, don't think about it so much, life will go on as usual." ”

She looked at Qi You and patted him on the shoulder: "I have everything with me." ”

After Chungui finished speaking, he continued to eat, added a chopstick pig's feet to Zhimin, and the two of them ate with a smile.

Chun Gui didn't care, whether it was to comfort their hearts or whether they really had confidence in their hearts, Qi You and Zhixing didn't know, but there was a faint fog on their hearts.

Zhixing was happy and uneasy, and Qi You was silent for a while before picking up the chopsticks.

After eating and resting for a while, the two took Xiaobao and Zhiyuan, and went to the private school with a bowl of rice.

Zhiping had already been deflated after Qi Xiucai's staring for more than an hour, covering his hungry stomach, and staring at Qi Xiucai. Seeing the two brothers coming, he immediately wanted to cry, but was frightened away by Qi You's sentence "Sister Chun already knows", so he had to hold a bowl of rice and eat it sobbingly.

Zhixing sat on the seat for a long time and then turned his head to look at Qi You: "Qi You, let's go to the town to pick up some work after a while." He lowered his eyes and said energetically: "I can copy one more book, so that my sister-in-law can be more relaxed." ”

Even if Chungui has a lot of money to earn, it is not a reason for him to sit down and enjoy it.

Qi You only glanced at him, tapped his knuckles on the table, and said calmly, "I understand." ”

He promised on his face, but his heart was full of thoughts.

It is not enough to just copy books, Sister Chun was able to reach a cooperation with Miss Guo, and she also said that she relied on ingenuity that day. Painters are easy to obtain, ingenuity is rare, and that fan is also selling well in Kyoto. So how should he and Zhixing make some moves in copying books to double the profits of copying books........

Throughout the afternoon, several people in this school had their own thoughts, and the spring return was not idle, and they made some of the food to be sold in the stall tomorrow, and it was only these two days, and the sweet potatoes were almost eaten up now, so they could only wait for the spring to plant a stubble. Cai's means to be a grocery shop for the time being, but Chun Hui has other ideas, she has a basket of food in her head, just pick a few things to make, but the money she earns at the door of Bai's house is also limited, not to mention that the two children in the family are going out in August, and she really has to move faster.

Cai's made a board before her, anyway, this small stall is related to eating, she got up early in the morning to make a few baskets of steamed buns and steamed buns to buy first, brown sugar ginger tea is also sold, and then put it on when Chungui thinks of other food. Chun Gui thought about it and decided to do it for the time being, the important thing these days is to draw the picture of Miss Guo's fan.

In addition to the daily sweet potato balls, Chungui picked out some of the taro sent by Daddy Li the day before yesterday, steamed and pressed into mud cakes and fried them, although they were delicious, they were always a little unsightly.

At this time, she was busy painting the fan noodles, and put the taro aside for the time being.

It is said that ingenuity is rare, and there are some exhaustive ideas at this time when the spring returns, and after taking care of Zhimin, she took a nap and locked herself in the room to paint. Now the study room that was temporarily opened has the appearance of a study, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are complete, and the white porcelain vase given by Miss Guo is also put on the table, and it looks like the study of the scholar's brother from the back room.

Glimpsing this white porcelain vase, Chungui can't help but think of the modern appliquΓ©d porcelain vase, she doesn't love these monotonous colors, she only thinks that the big vase with the color of the applique is good-looking. She saw that the porcelain plates sold in the town were also monotonous, and there were not many porcelain patterns here. Otherwise, when she is free and has plenty of money, she will inevitably have to burn some beautiful rice bowls, plates, and vases. Now I have to think about it first.

Chungui sighed, stretched out his hand and stroked a handful of white porcelain bottles, which was comfortable to look at. She subconsciously looked at the white rice paper on the table again, and suddenly, the ghost added a large amount of black.

Spring Return: ........

Black?

Chungui was stunned, and painted a whole piece of black with a pen, as if thinking of something, his eyebrows wrinkled, and he turned out a dark yellow, and drew a figure who was studying at the desk.

In the first half of the year, I often saw Qi You and Zhixing still studying and doing their homework in the dark of night, and Zhixing's temperament jumped out, but there was no ambiguity in reading, let alone Qi You. Thinking like this, her frown furrowed again.

The pen is also smoother.......

Outside the window is a pale yellow crescent, and in front of the table is a young man who is studying hard, and the second is still black, and the young man stands up and recites to the moon, and the moon is a little rounder at this moment; In the third painting, there was no teenager anymore, the desktop was refreshing, only a few books were left, but the sky gradually brightened, no longer pure black, and a glimmer of light entered from above.

And the last painting is white, the sun is just right, passing by the tall horse and accompanying all the way from the window, and immediately a young man in the costume of the champion.

This is the simplest of the three sets of pictures she painted, but it is full of her hopes for Zhixing and Qi You, not looking forward to high school, only hoping that the income after a year will live up to their hard work.

Chungui doesn't know if Miss Guo will accept this set of pictures, after all, the fan is really black throughout, but the painting is also drawn, and I will only look at it when I come to collect it at the end of the month.

This picture doesn't look like a fan, the teenager studied hard to win the champion, and it is more like a set of comic books, with a story and a plot. Chungui shook his head and smiled, leaving the painting aside.

She didn't know that it was this set of pictures, which gave Qi You, who was thinking about how to double his profits in copying books at the moment.

In the evening, several children arrived home on time, and after Qi You and Zhixing sent Zhiyuan Xiaobao, they explained the matter of the field to Father Li, leaving Zhiping alone to enter the house.

The little guy squirmed and squeezed on the door frame, his eyes dodging and not daring to look at the spring return. On the first day of school, Xiaobao and Zhiyuan were praised by Qi Xiucai, only he was left in the hall and criticized, and the little shame that the child just had broke out at this moment.

Chungui glanced at him, took out the sprouted sweet potatoes alone, and walked towards the Cheng family's old house.

A total of three plots of land were reclaimed, two were planted with sweet potatoes and one was left for taro. Chungui was busy working alone, and the head Zhimin looked at his younger brother and sister-in-law, and ran to his sister-in-law with hesitation, helping to plant sweet potatoes together.

Zhiping blinked, followed behind his buttocks, picked up a sweet potato sprout, and carefully handed it over to Chungui.
