In the dim candlelight, his face was a little hazy.

Hua Jiao looked up at him, a little stunned for a moment.

It was difficult for her to merge the person in front of her with the man who was fighting with the four men in black in the back mountain that day, but ...... What exactly does he mean by that?

She didn't speak, and he didn't say anything.

After a moment of silence, Hua Jiao realized that it was late at night, and said: "The suspicion of the shopkeeper Sheng before was that I told Su Xian about you, so the yamen found you, I didn't say anything to Su Xian, but Su Xian reminded me, saying that you might have something to do with the windbreak murder." ”

This black pot is too big.

She didn't want to carry it, if she was killed by Pei Ze one day, wouldn't she be very unlucky.

"I trust you, it's none of your business." Pei Ze clasped his hands on his chest, leaned in front of the stove, and looked at her meaningfully, "From this matter, that Su Xian is not a good person, you don't have to deal with him again in the future." ”

She hadn't slept until now, and it must have been because of this.

He was even a little moved, after all, in addition to his father, there was someone who was worried about him.

Hua Jiao nodded, and said from the goodness: "I said it a long time ago, he is just an old acquaintance to me." ”

Maybe Huajiao had relied on Su Xian before, but she was not Huajiao.

"That's good." Pei Ze bowed slightly, and looked up at her again, "Do you still go to the mountains to dig powdered kudzu?" ”

"Yes." Sichuan pepper said frankly, "If you don't dig it again, the season will be over, and the seventh master said that the quality of the powdered kudzu root in this season is the best, and it is the best goods." ”

"Then I'll go with you." Pei Zewen said, "It just so happens that I'm going to the town to do some errands, so I'll help you bring it over by the way." ”

"Okay." Hua Jiao happily responded, turned around and walked out, "You rest early!" ”

Pei Ze took the lead in lifting the curtain for her, sent her out, and said in a low voice: "It's all this time, don't be in a hurry tomorrow." ”

As soon as Hua Jiao wanted to say something, he heard Yang's coquettish voice coming from the West Wing: "Dead ghost, you ...... lightly"

The yard was quiet.

Her voice was particularly abrupt and piercing......

Hua Jiao suddenly felt embarrassed, and hurried back to his house.

It's really inconvenient to live in a courtyard like this......

Pei Ze frowned, and quickly lowered the curtain.

Unknowingly, after a while, Yang's voice came demonically again: "Ahhhh......h

Sichuan pepper simply covered his head.

Oh my God, are they doing it live......

The next day, when it was the turn of peppercorns to cook, Pei Ze got up early and went to the back mountain to fold a handful of bamboo shoots, and came back with firewood, sitting in front of the stove while peeling bamboo shoots while passing the fire, chatting with peppercorns: "There was no bamboo here, or I bought two bamboo seedlings in the town before I left and came back to plant them there, who would have thought that it would grow so much in eight years." ”

"I've been walking back and forth for days, and I haven't noticed any bamboo shoots!" Sichuan pepper boiled vegetable porridge, made corn cakes with old noodles with sugar and noodles, made a pine mushroom soup with lard, made egg custard for Mrs. Yuan and Sister Xian's Fuwa, Pei Ze personally fried a fresh bamboo shoot with lard and pepper, and the green bamboo shoots were dotted with a few red peppers, and the color matching was very good.

The family ate with relish.

Especially the Yang family's whole body was almost half lying in Pei Man's arms, and he almost didn't tell everyone in person that their activities yesterday were very enjoyable, and others obviously heard it, especially Pei Chunshan and Wang, whose faces were as black as the bottom of the pot, Pei Run and Liu's expressions were also very unnatural, Pei Ying was fifteen years old, and he also knew the things between men and women, his face was red and he didn't make a sound, he lowered his head to eat, but Pei An opened his eyes and asked Pei Man: "Second brother, what were you doing in the house last night?" I heard my second sister-in-law say she's dying......"

"Don't talk nonsense, eat!" Wang reprimanded with a dark face, "Hurry up and eat, go out to play after eating, it's all shameless things!" ”

For the first time in most of her life, she had heard a loud scream...... Shameless things, how not to die!

"That's enough, don't say it." Pei Chunshan drank Wang with a black face, "I can't stop your mouth when I eat." ”

"Mother, I'm going to follow my third sister-in-law to the town to sell powdered kudzu, and the third sister-in-law sold the money and bought me a sugar gourd!" Pei An didn't pay attention to the strangeness of his father and his mother, and said with a big stab, "The third sister-in-law has a lot of copper plates, I have seen them all!" ”

Hua Jiao was speechless.

When did he see it?

How did she not know?

"This hasn't been separated yet, so I've started to hide private money." Yang didn't seem to feel ashamed, but pouted, very unconvinced, "If we continue like this, won't we suffer a lot?" ”

Liu smiled and said nothing.

Now she felt more and more that this new brother and sister was a very thick-skinned master.

"Since the second sister-in-law said so, let the second brother take out the money he earned these days and keep an account, and divide it equally in the future." Huajiao said lightly, "And the eldest brother has to hand over the money every time he goes to the town to sell pumpkins, you are the bigest, I am the smallest, you pay it." ”

"We don't care about the money your man makes, and you don't have to worry about the money our man sells." Yang said confidently, "You just take care of yourself, the affairs in the mountains and seas, just don't ask us for compensation......"

"If that's the case, then you have to talk about it." Wang interrupted Yang's words with a blank face, and said coldly, "The cost of building a house for you is also to be accounted for, and after the separation, it will be flat, and you will be brothers, this is called blessing and hardship." ”

"Third uncle, don't get me wrong, the three of us are talking and playing, since you have something to say first, we won't really ask you about the money you make from selling mountain goods." Liu Shi was the first to react, and said to Pei Ze with a smile, "You misunderstood, your eldest brother and second brother all handed over the money they earned, but you didn't see it, I don't believe you asked milk, milk, did you say we handed it over?" ”

"It's been handed over, it's all handed over." Old Lady Yuan said impatiently.

"Third uncle, we have seen the homestead and asked the chief, and the chief said that it will be built by relying on the vacant land in the east of our house." Yang Shi looked at Pei Ze with silky eyes, and said coquettishly, "We agree to split up, and you don't want to break your word!" ”

Sichuan pepper suddenly felt goosebumps.

Pei Ze's face sank, put down his chopsticks and walked out.

"The second daughter-in-law, sitting and standing, you are a daughter-in-law, what are you doing?" The Wang family really couldn't help it, and said directly, "After dividing the family, you two can toss as much as you like, we can't control it, but you live at home for a day, you can't be too presumptuous like this, and fortunately, no one in the Su family lives, if you are listened to by others, won't you lose the dead?" ”

Pei was blushing, got off the kang silently, and hurriedly went out.

Only then did Yang realize that Wang was talking about last night, and he also shut up in amusement.

"What's wrong with them?" Mrs. Yuan was confused.

She slept deep at night and heard nothing.

"Alright, don't talk about it." Pei Chunshan glared at the Wang family, turned his head to Pei Run, and said, "Let's go to the town today to find your uncle to pull some farm manure back, and plant the land first." ”

Pei Run nodded again and again: "Okay." ”

Father and son had breakfast and followed each other to the town.

It wasn't until dark and he didn't come back.

The Wang and Liu families were in a hurry.

It's just to buy a farm fertilizer, and it won't take half a day to come back, something must have happened.

"What about the third child, let him go to Wang Qi and find a few people to look for him in the town." Mrs. Yuan also panicked, if something happened to her son, then how would she live......

"The third child went to find Liujin to discuss." Wang wiped his eyes and said, "Two big men, how can you say that you won't see them......"

"When my father and eldest brother went to buy fat, I was not there, and my uncle said that they would rush back for dinner at noon." Pei Man frowned and said, "Unless they get lost......"

It's impossible to think about.

From Tonghua Village to Wutong Town, they have walked this mountain road countless times, and they can come back with their eyes closed.

"Sichuan pepper, didn't you go to the town today to sell powdered kudzu?" Wang was so anxious that he was sweating, and then he remembered Hua Jiao, grabbed her arm, and said eagerly, "Have you seen your father and your eldest brother?" ”

"Mother, if I had seen it, I would have said it a long time ago." Sichuan pepper was a little speechless.

She sold the powdered kudzu root and went to Feng's house to sit for a while, picked up a lot of conches from the dock, and then made these conches into spicy conches at Feng's house and sent them to Xiaoyao Teahouse, and listened to a book there, and when she came back, it was almost dark, and she didn't know that Pei Chunshan and Pei Run had also gone to town.

"Mother, don't worry, I'll go to the town for a walk." Pei Ze stepped in, looked at the peppercorns, and said softly, "You go with me, I'll go to my cousin for help, and you and your cousin can be companions at home." ”

"Okay, I'll go with you." Sichuan pepper is not easy to refuse.
