Chapter Ninety-Five: Guests

Li Lezi died, he dug a pit by himself and buried himself, right next to Erniu's grave.

The cow herd went up the mountain to play, smelled the stench, saw the new mud, knew that there was a dead person, and went home to inform the elders.

The elders went to see it and found that it was Li Lezi.

Now it's okay, my father is dead, my mother is dead, and the two children of the Li family have become fatherless and motherless.

The village chief also had a good deal with the government, and he couldn't find Li Lezi, and the village chief also cursed.

Mrs. Li couldn't come up with the money, so Li Lezi's brothers summed up and buried Li Lezi and Erniu together, saving a sum of money for the coffin.

What others do is an episode in their own lives, and people have to live their own lives.

The death of Li Lezi and his wife had no impact on the Su family, and life went on as usual.

Su Lingyu discussed with his father, "Why don't we go and take Li Er over, raise the third aunt, and raise him as a slave?" ”

"It's good for you to think like this, but you have to ask the Li clan if they are willing. Li Yongzhi became an official, and he was two ranks higher than Erlang. When Li Er comes to our house as a slave, the Li clan will feel ashamed and will not be able to raise their heads. ”

"You don't have to worry, Li Dan may be hugged and raised. Even if they don't hug it, they will give rice and food. ”

Now she was relieved.

Su Chongmu rested, went home to rest for two days, and slept lazily.

"Mother, what do you have for breakfast?"

"Glutinous rice rolls with bean skin, and soy milk." Kapok said with a smile.

Xiao Wu ate a full mouthful, "The bean skin glutinous rice rolls are delicious." ”

The tofu skin is bought from the tofu factory, and the steamed glutinous rice is filled with lotus root grains, crab butter, and crushed beans. After steaming, take it out and cut it into sections, which is very delicious.

When she made food at home, she would bring one to Shen Ming, and Su Chong would go with her.

He hadn't seen the dean for a few days, and when he got home late last night, he didn't dare to disturb the dean. Bring a couple of out-of-print books with a good strip of ink.

He took the initiative to carry the basket and let San'er walk with his hands empty-handed.

The weather is cold, the waterfowl go to the south for the winter, and the chickadees occupy the mountain forest, and the squeaking is also lively.

"Some villagers asked me, is it possible to collect taro at home?"

"Well, dry taro is ground and made into taro balls, taro cakes, and taro flour."

Su Zhong frowned, "Can you find a buyer?" ”

There is a lot of land in your own land, and if you eat it at home, you don't need to buy dried taro from outside.

"There is no need for buyers, you can open your own shop and sell your own shop. I bought a shop in the city, and the front store and the back house. After you married Li Ying, you lived in the city, and you didn't need to be tired of traveling.

You go to the yamen and go to the countryside, and Li Ying takes the servants to buy and sell taro flour and taro pills to live. ”

"No, if you don't do your filial piety in front of your parents, this is a big unfilial piety." Su Chong disagreed.

Da Lang misses home and values family affection, she knows it.

"Whether you go or not, this store still has to open. First, let you and your father have a place to stay in the city. Second, to increase the family's income. ”

"Erlang is a money hole, and no amount of money is enough to spend. The last time I sent a letter, I actually asked my family for a thousand taels. ”

"So much?"

"yes, that's too much."

So she gave six hundred and fourteen taels and five dollars, which were mixed with two old silver hairpins and a broken inkstone.

went to a thick letter, telling that the family sold the fields, cattle and horses, chickens, ducks and geese, and sold the ornaments of the grandmother and mother, so that they could get these silver money.

At the end of the letter, a sentence was attached, "If it is not enough, if you sell Xiaowu and Kapok, you may be able to get a hundred taels of silver." ”

Calculate the time, the letter should be delivered to Su Shan.

Su Shan wrote that he went to the peak with the intention of recruiting him as his son-in-law, and he also met that girl. I like this girl, I want to marry her, and I want my father and mother to go to Beijing. ”

"This is a good thing, what does Daddy want?"

"Entering Beijing for the Chinese New Year. There is still March before the Chinese New Year, and you should get married before the elderly. Yu Niang wants you to marry Li Ying first, there are two good days in the moon, it depends on your intentions. ”

The brother and sister walked as they talked, and soon came to Shen Ming's residence.

But today someone preceded them, and a carriage stopped in front of the "Burrow".

"Burrow" is the name that Shen Ming gave to his small courtyard, Su Lingyu found a good piece of wood for him, he carved it himself, painted it, and hung it outside the door.

After entering the door, a little boy stepped forward and said, "Mr. went out yesterday and accepted a new disciple, named Wang Jingxing." ”

"Brother Jing Xing!"

The little king next door?

Su Chong quickly went inside, and saw that Wang Jingxing was extremely happy, and at the same time a little lost, disappointed that the dean did not accept him as an apprentice.

Wang Jingxing bowed his head to Su Lingyu, and his attention was still on Mr. and Su Chong.

Su Lingyu took the food in Da Lang's hand, handed it to Wang Jingxing's servant, and instructed him to set up the stone table. He also asked the child to go to Lingyu Villa, and asked the third aunt for more food to explain the visitor.

Then she picked up the bucket and went up the mountain to fetch water from the mountain spring.

Brewing tea in a spiritual spring diluted with mountain spring water tastes better and is more refreshing. Its practical spiritual spring to brew tea can strengthen the body and improve immunity.

But she didn't dare, the smell of Lingquan boiled tea was strong, and the fragrance of tea was even stronger. But the spiritual spring is only available to her, and others can't find it, which is easy to arouse suspicion.

By the time she got back, they had already talked about politics and taxes. She didn't want to get involved in these topics, politics was their men's business.

She just wants to live leisurely, if something happens, Su Chong and Su Shan will stand in front.

She has taught the children how to make tea, so they don't have to serve it herself. Pick up the kettle and water the moon season and mountain chrysanthemum.

In Shen Ming's flower garden, I saw a bright red three-layer thirty-two-petal chrysanthemum, which is a new variety!

"Stop, what are you going to do? Thief, put it down. ”

Su Lingyu dug out a red chrysanthemum, smiled and said, "Master, if you have good things, you have to share them." ”

"I hid there, I just didn't want you to see it. I'm just two of them! ”

"Rest assured there will be more next year." She laughs.

She stood among the flowers, her smile was sweet, like the sunshine in winter, warm to people's hearts.

Wang Jingxing was fascinated by the painting, and his finger on the table depicted her face, depicting the scenery of this world.

Su Zhong doted on San'er and persuaded the dean: "San'er is an expert in raising flowers and birds, and the dean doesn't need to be sad." I'm afraid that by next year, you will be able to see more red chrysanthemums. ”

Shen Ming was still very distressed, "My flowers! ”

"My red plum is about to bloom, I see that there is still a vacant lot outside your courtyard, why don't I move two red plums with you?"

"It's a deal."

Su Lingyu was wrapped in a lump of mud and left with Hongju away.

When she planted the red chrysanthemum, Su Zhang's came and asked, "Uncle is a guest, what should I eat?" ”

"The city ripped off the wanted warrant, and showed his face in front of General Sun, and it was inappropriate to call him uncle again. It's better to call him a master as I do. ”

"It's all the same. Is it better to have four dishes and one soup, or five dishes and one soup? ”

"A plate of chicken and duck each, a fried shrimp, plus a stack of beans and a pot of wine. Wang Jingxing brought two servants, a samurai and a boy, and the samurai should have a larger amount of food. You let the third aunt eat more rice. ”

"That's easy to do."
