Yan Yuanwai turned around and couldn't fall asleep like a kang baked cake, and compared the advantages and disadvantages of himself and the Jia family in his heart, and found that in addition to taking advantage of himself as an old villain, in real terms, he still took a big advantage when he married the Jia family!

It's better to wait, Yan Yuanwai preached to himself that it had been less than a year since he had lost his husband, and the Jia family usually didn't want to look at him more, maybe he didn't have any thoughts about him.

On the morning of August 15th, Qiu Ji came as an uninvited guest. Rong Deyi led the two family members and each brought a wooden box in.

As soon as he entered the door, he first congratulated the Jia family on Zhongqiu, and after chattering about the deep friendship between the two families, he complimented the idea of a prosperous shop, and after looking at Sister Qiu, he couldn't stop praising Sister Qiu's beauty.

Rong Deyi's fat lips couldn't stop croaking, and Jia's goosebumps rose all over his body, he really didn't expect that there were people with such powerful mouths and thick skins.

On August 15th, there were a lot of people in the market, and Jia's several people were very busy, and they didn't have time to entertain Rong Deyi, and Rong Deyi didn't stay long, and he was about to leave after greetings, but Jia's blocked him, stuffed the things brought by Rong Deyi back to the family, and said with a smile: "All of them are from the township, just talk, and bring any things back to the family to eat." ”

Rong Deyi hurriedly blocked it and gave the two family members a look, and the family members hurriedly put the wooden box back. Rong Deyi said goodbye to the Jia family with a smile and took the two family members away.

At noon, Jia Shi and Sister Qiu looked through the things brought by Rong Deyi from time to time, there were 20 moon cakes in one box, which were delicious or not, but the workmanship was very exquisite, and the other box put four pieces of flower cloth, all of which were bright and old.

"Eh, I said no, he still had to put it down." Jia Shi looked at these things and was worried, and sincerely didn't want to want Rong Deyi's things.

Sister Qiu said with a smile: "He sent it, let's take it, today on August 15, I just want to use these things as the mid-autumn welfare of employees." We don't need his stuff, we can't see it out of sight and don't bother. ”

She can remember clearly, just a few months ago, the desperate Jia took her to the Rong family, what kind of treatment did the mother and son suffer.

If Rong Deyi remembered the friendship between the two of them, how could he not have seen him bring gifts to the door during the previous Mid-Autumn Festival! The devil believed him!

Jia's stayed with Sister Qiu for a long time, and knew what employee benefits were, so they briefly discussed with Sister Qiu, and the 20 mooncakes were distributed to the people of the Qiu Ji team, and the sister-in-law Fufa and Furong each had a piece of flower cloth, and the remaining two pieces of flower cloth were given to Aunt Chunhua.

Mr. Long took Mrs. Long to Huyang to meet old friends, Yan Yuanwai invited the merchants in the town to eat and drink, the college was on vacation, Lin Zhun went home, and only Jia Li Ailian took a few children to enjoy the moon in the evening, although it was not as lively and festive as yesterday, but a few people were also very happy.

After mid-autumn, a few days later, the students who went to the county seat to take the exam returned.

When Zhu Pingshan came to the restaurant for dinner, he told Sister Qiu that he had won the old Xiucai, and the fly in the ointment was that Minghui leaned back a little.

"This

It's a great event! Sister Qiu smiled and said that she wanted Zhu Pingshan to wait, she personally went to the back kitchen to fry a dish and brought it to Zhu Pingshan, "This dish is for you, and I will give it to you as a gift!" ”

Zhu Pingshan smiled, glanced at Lin Zhun who was standing behind Sister Qiu, thanked him attentively, sat down and continued to eat.

When the students at noon finished eating and left, the store was empty, Jia sat in the room to rest, suddenly thought about something, and asked Sister Qiu: "It's all on the list, and I haven't heard how your uncle did in the exam." Dazhun have you heard about it in the academy? ”

"I must have failed the test." Sister Qiu grabbed the front of Lin Zhun and preached, without raising her head, she slipped a small cube cloth pocket in her hand, ready to fill it with sun-dried corn kernels, and kicked it as a sandbag.

If Mei Qu passes the test, the Mei family will know about it to all the people in the world. Mao's ironclad hatred went to the door of their store to mumble, so that they could see what it would be like to go against her old showman's mother!

Aunt Chunhua also came out of the small kitchen at this time, sat next to Jia's and took a breath, and said: "I didn't pass the exam, I went back yesterday afternoon to look at Mei Laoyu." Sister Qiu's grandmother still wants to provide him with continued study, her second uncle and second aunt are not happy, it is noisy and noisy, it has always been until the middle of the night, her second aunt cried loudly, saying that it was for him to study and gave up all her children, so that she could save a mouthful of food for him, if he studied again, he would drown her first! ”

"And what about in the end? My grandmother doesn't provide for my uncle to study? Sister Qiu asked, and felt that it was unlikely in her heart, Mei Laosuo and Mao's were stunned by the devil, and they would rather sell their granddaughter, and drown their granddaughter to confess a boy who is an official, how can such a determined mind not confess because of Aunt Mei's crying and crying, impossible!

Lin Zhun shook his head, a smile curled into the corner of his mouth, "The master of the academy said...... I want my uncle to study and review at home by himself, and he doesn't have to go to the academy. ”

Sister Qiu laughed out loud, this is actually a disguised expulsion!

If Mei Qu had passed the shit, the master of the academy would have been polite to him, and now he couldn't even pass the old show, and the gentlemen didn't bother to look at him anymore.

"Yes, yes!" Jia Shi saw that Sister Qiu was smiling in a bad shape, and couldn't help but speak, "We can know this thing, and no one should say it outside." Your uncle has made a mistake this time, and if he can gain knowledge, it won't be considered a bad thing. This old talent is not easy to test, and your father also took the test several times before he passed the test. ”

Jia is a kind-hearted person, even if Mei Qu did such a immoral thing, she didn't think about making him short. At the end of August, it was the autumn harvest season, and the usual lively market became cool and green, and the big guys were all busy with the autumn harvest, so Jia simply stopped the earlier idea in the store. Although no one rushed to the market to eat bean curd, but the water tofu and soybean sprouts sold more, Lin Cheng and a few people worked in the fields during the day, and carried water tofu and soybean sprouts to sell in the afternoon, worked hard for a few days, and earned a lot of money

。

Lin did go out twice a day at noon, and together he could sell nearly 100 catties of water tofu and 100 catties of soybean sprouts, and when he came back, it was often dark.

It's more money than usual, but it's hard work.

Aunt Chunhua wants to help make water tofu, Lin does want to sell water tofu, the two strong laborers of the Jiang family are busy dizzy, they go to the ground in the morning, and go to the field to break corn in the dark at night.

Lin was really crying and laughing, his father was old, Da Yin was still young, Da Zhun was still studying, he couldn't be tired and lose his body, and he summed up with Aunt Chunhua, so he simply spent money and hired two short-term workers to help them harvest autumn.

At this time, the cost of hiring short-term workers is large, compared to the money of hiring short-term workers, selling water tofu still accounts for the majority of the money, these days Lin Cheng and his wife have seen more money, and their minds are also active, and they are not as reluctant to spend money as before.

Jia's family took Da Ash back to his home in Xiaohe Town to make water tofu during the day, and said okay with Chunhua, just like when harvesting wheat, their family cooked the meals of the two families, and asked Chunhua to carry them to the boundary.

The Jiang family has 15 acres of land, 3 acres of millet are planted, 5 acres of beans are planted, and the rest of the land is planted with sweet potatoes and buds.

The autumn harvest is slightly easier than when the wheat is harvested, the weather is not so hot, the fields where the crops have been harvested are scattered with grasshoppers and grasshoppers, and the sticks and straws that are ready to be pulled home are piled on the boundary of the ground.

Li Ailian took Zhang Yuxiu and Zhang Ruoxu back to Zhangjia Village, and Sister Qiu went back to Xiaohe Town with Jia's family, and followed Dayin and Aunt Mancang's Cui Hua'er to catch grasshoppers in the fields.

Children have their own names for the insects on their own territory, the most common is a kind of gray-white grasshopper, about the length of the child's palm, there are solid fine thorns on the hind legs, and the bullet is very powerful.

After catching the grasshopper and the grasshopper, use a thin grass stalk to thread it into a string from the neck of the insect ant, take it back and throw it into the chicken pen, and the chicken eats it happily.

Da Yin was too tired to run back and forth to his home in this way, so he simply hugged the two largest chickens in the house, tied their feet with straw ropes, and asked them to catch insects and ants in the field by themselves.

Don't look at the chickens can't run fast and can't fly, it's very stupid, but they catch insects and ants almost one by one, first tilt their heads to look at it, quickly raise their feet and crush it, bow their heads and peck into their mouths and swallow them, their actions are clean and neat.

Sister Qiu's chicken is in the town, and it is obviously not suitable to stay in the field, but Sister Qiu has already prepared, found a clay bottle boy with cracks on the wall, caught the insect ant, lifted the lid on the bottle boy and opened a small opening, stuffed the insect ant into it and hurriedly closed the lid.

After making water tofu in the afternoon, Sister Qiu went back to the town with a full bottle of insects and ants and put the insects and ants in the bottle boys

Poured into the chicken pen, Master Sun took the beauties of the "Hou and Gong" into battle, and no insect ant could escape the fate of being eaten by the chickens.

These Xu Tianlin are busy in the fields from morning to night, their faces are tanned to honey, they are holding their trouser legs, and their black linen shoes are covered with mud.

When passing by the door of Mei's house, Sister Qiu and Lin Zhun happened to meet Mei Yindi standing by the door and turning over the corn cobs. Mei Yindi saw from a distance that the two were talking and laughing, very intimate and harmonious, so she held back a wisp of anger in her heart, stood up and leaned against the door with her hands, squinted at the two of them, and asked sharply: "Lin Zhun, didn't you go to the town to study at the college?" How did you come back to work? ”

Sister Qiu frowned, she really hated Mei Yindi's appearance, squinting at people, and couldn't stop rolling her eyes, her face was full of bitterness and harshness, and she was a "cardamom girl version" of Mao's family.

"Why can't you work when you study? It's up to you whether others do the work wheel? What's the matter with you? Sister Qiu replied unceremoniously.

Mei Yindi was speechless, so she plunged her waist, looked at Lin Zhun's purple face, and shouted angrily: "Your book is also useless!" It's a lifetime of digging and eating in the dirt! Ahh ”

"You...... You're indebted! Sister Qiu's angry voice trembled, squatted down and grabbed a stone on the ground and threw it at Mei Yindi.

Sister Qiu didn't think about what to do with Mei Yindi, she just wanted to scare her, and the stones in her palm were not accurate, Mei Yindi shrank her neck in fright, and the stones flew from her shoulders and smashed to the ground.

Mei Yindi had a false alarm, and when she saw that Sister Qiu didn't hit it, she got up again, "Stupid!" ”

Uncle Mei came out of the courtyard, wearing a green cloth robe and a square scarf, looking at Sister Qiu's expression for a moment of unnaturalness, and then pretending to be stern and shouting: "Yindi, what are you doing?" Don't hurry up and do the work yet! Then he ran away and went back to the house, for fear of taking another look at Sister Qiu.

Lin Zhun hurriedly grabbed Sister Qiu, who was about to smash Mei Yindi, shook her head at Sister Qiu, and walked forward with Sister Qiu, unwilling to entangle Mei Yindi more. He was also very angry in his heart, he went to study just to earn a name and come back, so that he could marry Sister Qiu, and pointed to his nose and said that he couldn't pass the exam, and he was not happy at all. Just thinking about his anger subsided, and he felt that it was really not worth being angry because of people like Mei Yindi.

After arriving at Jiang's house, Lin Zhun put down the burden on his shoulders, and Sister Qiu helped him carry the basket and pour the beans into the big basket on the ground.

"Did she take the wrong medicine today?" Sister Qiu complained angrily.

Lin Zhun smiled and shook his head, "I don't know, I haven't seen her since I beat me to study at the academy." In fact, Lin Zhun could not guess the reason for Mei Yindi's search for ballast today, his mother rejected Mei's second aunt's suggestion to marry, and firmly and clearly said that they looked down on Mei Yindi, and Mei Yindi held a grudge, take a look

Next, even the "big quasi-brother" is not called at all, but it was affectionate one by one "big quasi-brother" before.

"It's a lack of scolding, a lack of flatness!" Sister Qiu muttered, Mei Yindi scolded her, she felt that it didn't matter, but when she heard Mei Yindi scolding Lin Zhun, she couldn't calm down.

Lin Zhun smiled slightly, pulled Sister Qiu's palm and persuaded, "Why bother arguing with her for a few words?" I can't pass the exam, can she have the final say? Let's talk about it again......" Lin Zhun's voice was lowered, and he leaned into Sister Qiu's ear and asked, "If I can't pass the exam, will you not marry me?" ”

At this time, all the people of the Jiang family were busy outside, and it was Lin Zhun who dared to ask Sister Qiu so boldly, and the honey-colored cheeks also revealed a redness like a burning cloud.

Sister Qiu is anxious, where is this, Lin Zhun's name in the exam is the icing on the cake, and the two of them will still live a peaceful and secure life in the future, she is afraid that Lin Zhun, who is still a young man, will drill the horns, and immediately concentrate on it and really ensure it, "You can rest assured, if you can't pass the exam, I will marry you." ”
