After Xiao Yu'er finished the conversation with Zhongqiu, she went to Chen Jiayu's courtyard to talk to the third aunt.

She went at the right time, Chen Jiayu woke up after resting. She is in good spirits now, and when she sees Xiao Yu'er coming, she is naturally full of joy.

Xiao Yu'er and Chen Jiayu gossiped for a while, and then talked about the matter of storing grain.

She had told Chen Jiayu about this a few days earlier, and at that time, Chen Jiayu asked her with a heavy heart if she had heard bad news. How dare Xiao Yu'er tell her the true speculation, it is a bit inappropriate to frighten the third aunt again, she will never be able to escape the blame.

The ready-made excuse was right in front of him, and Xiao Yu'er said that the New Year was approaching, and the price of grain would rise. Grain is easy to store things, waiting for three or two years will not be bad, now just buy two more months, buy the food for the New Year in advance, this is to save money!

Chen Jiayu was persuaded by her, so she asked her subordinates to go out to buy. Not only food, but also some shelf-stable dried melons, fruits, vegetables, bacon or something, and small fish also let you buy more.

Chen Jiayu responded, "I bought them all, but the time is still short, and I bought a little less." Somehow, the price of grain this year is 10% more expensive than at this time of year. If it weren't for the price of food during the Chinese New Year in previous years, it would indeed be more than 20% more expensive than usual, so I wouldn't let people buy it. ”

But Chen Jiayu still asked the housekeeper to buy it, and out of the unspeakable worry in her heart, she asked people to buy more than twice as much as she had planned. Even salt, tea and some medicinal herbs, she let her subordinates have some tun.

However, it is because there is a lot of food to be sought, and it will take another three to five days to transport all of it. As for some other bacon and eggs, because the amount required is small, they have already been bought and all of them have been transported to the warehouse.

Chen Jiayu said simply, Xiao Yu'er had a bottom in her heart, and the stone in her heart fell to the ground.

That's good, so that even if Minzhou is really messy, there will be no shortage of food and drink in Xu's mansion. In other words, as long as food and clothing are solved, people's hearts will be stable, and there will not be too much chaos.

Speaking of food and clothing, Xiao Yu'er hurriedly added, "Try to stock up on cloth and cotton...... Again, if you want to give new clothes to your subordinates during the New Year, it's better to take advantage of your free time and let the needlework room start doing it now. In this way, if the next person has something to do, there will be no turmoil, and then there is the old saying, buying now is cheaper than buying for the New Year. ”

Chen Jiayu naturally had nothing to do, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to go out and buy it.

Xiao Yu'er stayed here with Chen Jiayu for a while and was ready to go back.

Today, Shocking followed her out, and Shocking is an inner show. She doesn't have as good eloquence as Zhongqiu, and she is not particularly lively, but she is steady, delicate, and able to perceive the details.

Shocked and whispered, "Does the girl also think that there will be war in Minzhou?" ”

The two of them were followed by two little maids, two mothers-in-law who were five big and three thick. However, these people also have eyes, and when they saw that they were whispering to the girl, they wisely fell behind more than ten steps and fell far behind.

Xiao Yu'er let out a light "um", "It's not that I'm happy, it's that there will definitely be war." "Don't forget, the Admiral of Minzhou Naval Division, who was taken into custody, and the Lord Zhizhou, who was under observation, have all disappeared without a trace." ”

"Hmm" in shock, "The slave knows." ”

Xiao Yu'er stopped talking and exhaled a hot breath into his hand. It's really cold, it's cold, it's cold, and the damp and cold air flow is like an invisible snake, burrowing into people's clothes, making people uncomfortable.

This kind of damp cold is more abrasive than the dry cold in the north, and after a few days of overcast and damp, it is wet everywhere, and even the quilt in the room seems to have absorbed water and feels heavy.

I really want to make a kang in the house, I don't know if it will be better.

When Xiao Yu'er was thinking about it, Xu Erlang and Jinniang were teaching their daughters as usual.

Changqi can't stand this love, and I really want to propose to my parents that it's not good to call my sister over to study together?

It's a pity that she didn't dare to say it.

Because of the sneaking out, my sister is still angry with her. She was also weak and didn't dare to speak out loud in front of her sister. If you pull my sister down again, I don't know if my sister will be angry and whip her with a feather duster.

When Xiao Changqi sighed, Mohe walked in outside.

Changqi looked at Uncle Mohe with pleading eyes, Mohe saw it, but he couldn't do anything.

What Changqi did, to be honest, he wouldn't dare to do it at his age.

Mohe was amused by Changqi's complaining expression, coughed lightly, walked to Xu Erlang's side with one hand covering his mouth, and then whispered something.

Jin Niang didn't hear clearly, but Changqi heard well. Uncle Mohe's cover-up seemed to her to be purely useless. Therefore, I don't know what Uncle Mohe is doing secretly, after all, my father will not hide these things from my mother, and my father will definitely answer if my mother asks later.

Contrary to Changqi's expectations, Jin Niang didn't ask this question this time. I saw her knocking on Changqi's little head with a tiger face, "Concentrate." ”

Changqi concentrated.

Xu Erlang said something to Mohe again, and Mohe left later, and then Xu Erlang also got up.

Jin Niang obviously knew something, and was not surprised by his outing.

Xu Erlang also said, "I'm out, you take care of Changqi." Why don't I send you to Saburo's Mansion now? ”

Jin Niang thought for a moment and nodded, "That's fine." ”

It can concentrate manpower to the greatest extent, and even if something really happens, there is a response. No matter how bad it is, there is the Qin family next door, the old lady of the Qin family is old and fine, presumably there will be real danger at that time, and the Qin Mansion will not die without help.

Jin Niang nodded, Changqi became excited, "Mother, shall we go to find my sister?" ”

"Yes, give your sister a lesson."

Changqi collapsed after being entangled, she didn't dare to resist her mother, she only begged her sister silently in her heart, but don't put this pot on her head. Although she had thought about letting her sister share the difficulties with her before, she really just thought about it, and she would never dare to say it.

Changqi was excited to go back to Qin Mansion, she had her own careful thoughts, that is, she had to pass on her situation to Wu Xun no matter what.

I haven't seen each other for so long, and Ah Xun is afraid that she is worried about her safety.

Even though she was safe and there would be no accidents, but she didn't show up at the scheduled time, Ah Xun was worried that she couldn't sleep.

He already had a cough, and he finally got better some time ago, but don't worry about her situation and not eat and sleep well, and then ruin her body.

Changqi is a shallow mind, and all his thoughts are written on his face. When Jin Niang saw it, she was a little angry. Changqi looks like this, and she is a girl who is upside down, so she asked if the mother was upset when she saw this appearance!

Jin Niang was sympathetic, "You can be honest with me, dare to run out in the middle of the night after you go back, and your mother caught and broke your legs, even if your father pleads with you, it's useless." ”

Xu Erlang answered next to him, "If you really want to be so disobedient, break your hands and feet together." It also saves you from seeing the upset. ”

Changqi: ...... No. How can broken hands and feet have something to do with upset!

The most important thing is, isn't she her father's favorite little girl? How can my father say to her coldly and ruthlessly to break her legs and feet!

Has she fallen out of favor!!

Changqi's face changed.

Xu Erlang and Jin Niang didn't have time to care about her, Xu Erlang took Jin Niang's hand and walked out, saying as he walked, "I'll let Huhe and Quhe go back with you." I'll come back outside the house and leave people behind to listen to you. ”

Jin Niang said, "I know, I can handle this little scene." Don't worry about our mother, no matter how bad it is, isn't there a secret room? When it was really critical, I took the child and hid in the secret room. ”

San Lang is a thoughtful person, and the more he has been in Minzhou, the more he knows how big the abscesses here are. He also has a strong sense of safety, and is worried that the abscess will rupture one day and endanger his family. It is also for this reason that after buying this house, he arranged for a few henchmen to dig two secret rooms in the main courtyard overnight.

The food and water inside are changed regularly, and Chen Jiayu also knows this.

It's just that when San Lang left the Huishui Division this time, he knew that there might be turmoil, and he was even more worried that Chen Jiayu was confused in a panic, so he informed Jin Niang of the matter, hoping that Jin Niang could sit in the house at the critical moment.

But this is also dangerous, after all, Jin Niang's status is precious, if she goes to the Xu Mansion, it is equivalent to bringing double the danger over.

But Jinniang still decided to go over, just like she considered before, one to concentrate manpower, and the other to appease Jiayu.

Then again, although she will bring double the danger when she goes to the Xu Mansion, she will also bring a killer feature - isn't Changqi a killer feature? Waiting for ten or eight big men to come to her, they are all delivering food.

Later, Xu Erlang and Jin Niang went back to the backyard together, Xu Erlang left a lot of affairs, and watched her turn around the regiment commanded by her subordinates in front of Jin Niang.

The old husband and wife, Jin Niang easily saw the reluctance in his eyes. For a while, she was a little ridiculous, and said with a smile, "Didn't you also say that if things go well, you will come back in a few days." Even if things don't go well, you can wait a month or two for things to be resolved. Besides, I don't dare to say anything, my children and I are always in Minzhou, right under your nose, if you miss us, why can't you come and visit us? ”

Xu Erlang put his arm around her waist and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "It's better than getting along day and night." ”

This sentence touched Jin Niang very much, and she couldn't help but have some tears. It's easy to get along day and night, but how difficult is it to do?

But they have been with each other for ten years, and they have been together for ten years. There was a separation, but the longer the marriage took place, the more unbearable it became.

Jin Niang was full of emotion in her heart, why not Xu Erlang? His face was cold, his heart lacked tenderness, and he really wanted time to stop at this moment when he hugged Jinniang.

But in order to stay together in the future, sometimes a short separation is also necessary.

Xu Erlang took Jinniang's hand and walked to the inner room, while comforting her mournful sorrow. Jin Niang looked at Xu Erlang with a smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyes were a little dazed, and every time she parted from him, she coaxed her like this. She loves the ecstasy soup he poured, and the whole person is confused by him, and whatever he says is what he says. It's really useless.

Jin Niang, who had no interest, took her daughter to San Lang's house in a carriage, looking at the straight figure at the door of the post station, her heart was full of tenderness and a touch of worry.

Changqi opened his mouth and said, "Mother, I'm not going back, I'll follow my father closely, okay?" ”

Jin Niang reflexively glared over, "What are you messing with?" Sensing that something was wrong, Jin Niang looked at Changqi and asked, "What gossip did you hear this girl again?" ”

Changqi didn't dare to tell her mother, she heard her father's conversation just now. She dared to swear to the old lady, she really didn't mean it. She just slacked off and sang a prodigy, and who knew that her ears began to sound as if she had a consciousness of her own. Anyway, when she woke up, she listened to a lot of things that were not there, and she knew it was wrong to shake them out, but she didn't have the book.

Changqi was even more empty-hearted, but he thought about it. Daddy's personal safety, she can't care so much about it. "Just let me follow my father to protect him, mother, with me guarding in front of me, no demons and monsters will want to get close to my father."

"Where did the demons come from? I'm still glamorous. Okay, okay, you know your father's affairs, and your mother will no longer pursue you, but you don't want to think about following your father. Originally, your father's target was not so obvious, so you pestle him forward, come on, your father's target is more obvious. Again, your father is busy with important matters related to the safety of a place, what's the matter with your little girl in front of you? This informed person said that you were filial, and the uninformed person thought that your father was derelict in his duties, and he had to take care of the child while he was on an errand. Is there a way to hear this? Your father's reputation is ruined. ”
