Chapter 152 Reason
Fu Duoduo is talking funny to Hongmei, and Bi Tao and Chunfu are back.
Chunfu's face was full of excitement, and as soon as he stepped into the house, he described the environment of the surrounding Zhuangzi with chattering and dancing, and said happily: "Auntie, you don't know, this grange can be big, but beautiful, especially the elm trees planted around the farm, all of them grow thick and tall, and the slave and maid are a little unable to hug it." While speaking, he also cooperated with the gesture of hugging, so as to verify that the tree was really strong, "Such a big one, the branches are full of elm coins, strings and strings, from a distance, it really looks like copper coins, green and green, and the eyes of the slave and maid are almost green." ”
Fu Duoduo and the others saw that Chun Fu was talking funny, and they couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.
Chunfu stomped his feet, pouted, and said, "Really, don't lie to you, it's really like a copper coin." If you don't believe me, you ask Bi Tao. ”
After all, the name Bi Tao is called habitual, and Chunfu blurted out that this is it, not the New Year's Eve that was taken later.
Hearing that, the corners of Fu Duoduo's eyebrows frowned slightly, but Bi Tao, as the party concerned, did not have a trace of reaction, and still echoed Chunfu and said: "Yes, the elm money grows very well, wait a few days, and then draw longer, you can pick the elm money and make it into elm money rice, or you can make it into dumplings, steamed buns, pancake rolls, how good how to come, the taste is fresh and refreshing, it is the best seasonal dish." After speaking, he looked at Fu Duoduo and saw a slight frown between her eyebrows, and couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Is there something uncomfortable? As he spoke, he stepped forward quickly, reaching out to cover Fu Duoduo's forehead and probe the temperature.
Fu Duoduo sighed lightly, reached out to take Bi Tao's hand, shook his head, and said faintly: "I'm fine." Although he said that he was fine, his voice sounded very sad and his mood was very low.
Bi Tao became more and more uneasy, and insisted on exploring the temperature of Fu Duoduo.
Hongmei has been watching, seeing Fu Duoduo's look like this, and looking at Bi Tao's eyes with such sadness, her heart immediately understood.
So, he stepped forward to Fu Duoduo's side, probed the temperature of her forehead, and said to Bi Tao: "I don't think my aunt has a fever, Bi ...... No, no, no, it should be the New Year, do you think? "Deliberately, almost by the wrong name.
Bi Tao is now fully focused on Fu Duoduo, and she didn't notice Hongmei's intentions, and responded: "Me didn't either." But this is the case, she still has a faint worry in her heart, and then asked Fu Duoduo: "Do you really not feel anything uncomfortable?" ”
"No, not really." Fuduoduo said.
"Then why do you look unhappy? The brows were still furrowed. Bi Tao asked unwillingly.
Fu Duoduo laughed.
This little girl, she was worried that when she heard the word "Bi Tao", she would recall the unbearable past, but now she didn't realize it, thinking about what was wrong with her body, how could she say how good she was?
Bi Tao continued to advise: "Then if you have any physical discomfort, you can't hide it and carry it by yourself." ”
"Hmm." Fu Duoduo reluctantly responded.
Seeing this, Hongmei interjected and said, "Bi Tao, you are still careful, don't blame your aunt for being so attentive to you." ”
Again, Hongmei deliberately forgot.
Bi Tao smiled, still without any special feelings, as gentle as usual.
Hongmei again and again, others did not notice, Fu Duoduo sensitively smelled the smell.
She looked at Hongmei with deep meaning, her expression was dark and uncertain.
Hongmei didn't seem to know Fu Duoduo's inquiry, and said: "Don't talk about how the surrounding Zhuangzi is doing, or talk about important things first, what are those tenants for, will make such a big fuss, aren't they afraid of offending the Yu Mansion?" ”
Chunfu flattened her mouth, she was talking about it with interest.
Bi Tao felt that Hongmei was reasonable, and then said, "Well, that's right. I inquired, it turned out that the harvest in the past few years has not been good, especially the year before last, there was a particularly big locust plague, the dealer ate nothing, and barely took out the family money accumulated in the previous years, which is enough for the rent of the whole year. Therefore, in the case of this year's harvest, the tenants can only do so, otherwise, if it is still a natural disaster like in recent years, they will not only be busy in vain, but also owe a lot of rent. As he spoke, he paused slightly, expressed his opinion, and said: "In my opinion, it is understandable that they made such a decision. After speaking, he looked at Fu Duoduo and asked, "Auntie, what do you see?" ”
"Huh?" Fu Duoduo's thoughts were still entangled in Bi Tao's name, and Hongmei's too keen and delicate observation, seeing Bi Tao ask her, she was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "What do I see?" I didn't hear it clearly. ”
Fu Duoduo rarely talks to others, especially on such an important matter, Bi Tao can't help but worry about what's wrong with her.
"You...... Is it really okay? She frowned just now, but now she looked lost again, and she had to worry.
Fu Duoduo looked at him and said, "Huh? It's okay, I'm listening, you repeat what you just said. There was an urge in the words.
There was no way, Bi Tao had to look at Fu Duoduo closely, and then repeat Shicai's words again.
Fu Duoduo asked: "The rich and noble family of Yufu, and it is not harsh, since there is a natural disaster, has the rent of these tenants not been reduced?" ”
Seeing that Fu Duoduo asked about the idea as soon as he opened his mouth, Bi Tao's heart was slightly relieved, and replied: "There are some reductions, but after all, it has been such a disaster for several years, even if it is completely free, those tenants will be so poor that they can't open the pot, not to mention that only half of the rent reduction has not yet arrived." ”
Fu Duoduo suddenly.
Indeed, those tenants are all dependent on the sky and the fields to live, and there is no other obvious income, so it is no wonder that they will make a big fuss this year, and they can be regarded as forced to go to Liangshan. No wonder she thinks it's strange, most of those who work in the fields are honest croppers, and no one has too many twists and turns, how can they make a lot of noise and threaten not to sow in spring? At first, she guessed if it was because of Zhuangtou, after all, there was no one in this world who didn't want to make money and water.
However, having said that, these tenants are making trouble because of rent, and the suspicion of the head of the village is not unfounded.
Just guessing, a little maid came to report that Chen's mother was here and was waiting outside the house.
Fu Duoduo was confused, what was she doing here? Haven't you already been here?
Hongmei and the others also looked at each other, puzzled.
Chunfu said, "Hongmei, why don't you go and explore?" She's your godmother now, so it's easier to talk. ”
Fu Duoduo nodded in agreement, and so did Bi Tao.
Hongmei thought about it and felt that if she had something to ask her aunt and grandmother, and her aunt couldn't do it, she could do it. First, Fu Duoduo's status will not be questioned, and second, Chen's mother's face will not be damaged.
So, very happily, he retreated with his knees bent.
Seeing this result, Chun Fu was very happy, this was her first idea, and everyone agreed with it.
Thinking of asking for praise from Fu Duoduo, Fu Duoduo's eyes looked at Bi Tao, and his expression was a little wrong, Chun Fu couldn't understand it.
Bi Tao was looked at by Fu Duoduo, and she also had something to ask her, so she simply took the lead in asking, "What's wrong with you?" It's weird today. ”
Hearing this, Fu Duoduo sighed in frustration.
Bi Tao was even more anxious, but she also knew that she couldn't be forced, so she could only patiently wait for Fu Duoduo to take the initiative to talk about it.
After a few breaths, Fu Duoduo said hesitantly: "You...... Don't you mind if someone calls you by that name? ”
"Huh? What the? Bi Tao was confused.
Anyway, they have already spoken, Fu Duoduo is not secretive, and said straight to the point: "It's Bi Tao, the name Bi Tao, you don't ...... it" The following words, Fu Duoduo is not good to say, I am afraid that it will hurt Bi Tao.
Bi Tao suddenly realized, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, and she asked teasingly: "You haven't been struggling with this matter just now, right?" ”
Looking at the smile on Bi Tao's face, Fu Duoduo already understood, and there was some embarrassment on his face, but he still nodded and said, "Yes, I've been thinking about it, and I'm thinking about whether to open my mouth to remind others, don't call it wrong again." ”
As soon as the words fell, Bi Tao's face no longer smiled, but her eyes were red and full of fog.
"Auntie, as long as the slave can be by your side, she is already very satisfied. As for the rest, the slave doesn't care, doesn't care, really. I was afraid that Fu Duoduo would not believe it, and nodded very seriously and solemnly.
Bi Tao said very sincerely, and Fu Duoduo believed that she was not purely comforting herself.
In this way, she was relieved.
Chunfu is not stupid, hearing the conversation between Fu Duoduo and Bi Tao, this suddenly woke up, it turned out that it was all caused by her previous slip of the tongue, and she didn't know it, but Hongmei already knew, and frequently made a lot of small movements.
At this moment, she felt that what Hongmei said was good, and she really wanted to study hard with her and restrain her temperament.
Since this matter was started by her, Chun Fu is not a person who shirks it, and stepped forward to apologize to Bi Tao.
Bi Tao said: "It's nothing, besides, I did have such a name before, how can you be wrong?" As she spoke, she remembered something, and said to Fu Duoduo: "Auntie, how do you say this? In front of outsiders, the name of the slave and maid is called, how do you get used to it, what do you think? ”
Fuduoduo readily agreed.
To tell the truth, she called Bi Tao for the New Year, and she was really not used to it, and she always felt that she was calling another person, and there was less intimacy.
In this way, it is very good, and it also proves that Bi Tao is slowly coming out of the shadows.
Chunfu saw that Fu Duoduo had a smile on his face again, and began to pick up interesting things about shopping outside Zhuangzi.
But just at the beginning, Hongmei came in with the curtain, and her expression was a little solemn.
