After the matter of worship, Lin Daimo seemed to have changed as a person, and even his usual attitude towards Lu Mengjian's high-spirited attitude gradually changed, but it was a pity that since the distillation furnace arrived, Lu Mengjian was full of devotion to refining the 'fine' oil, and he didn't pay attention to these at all, which caused Lin Daimo to be dissatisfied, but he was afraid of leaving the handle of fear and had to swallow it in his stomach.

Two days later, the home that had always been clean suddenly became lively again.

Fang Yuan happened to be free, so he bought some fresh 'meat', vegetables, 'chicken' eggs from the city, and hired a carriage to send them to Lin Daimo's residence. Halfway through the trip, he suddenly remembered what Lu Mengjian had entrusted, so he forked the road and walked to Shita Village, but he didn't expect that just after the intention was revealed, Li Qi's face was 'excited' and he responded, and Liu Lao Er picked 'flowers' and sent 'flowers' every day, even if the rain was almost never interrupted on a 'cloudy' day, he naturally readily agreed.

After all the inquiries were completed, Fang Yuan left half a tael of silver, and the right to make a deposit for the two of them, Li Qi couldn't shirk it, so he accepted it in his arms with sincere fear.

Hearing that Fang Yuan was going to visit Lin Daimofu's 'woman', Li Qi remembered Lu Meng's note in his heart, and it was inevitable that Fang Yuan would take it. But Zhong'er happened to be out on vacation for a day, and as soon as he heard the news that there was a beautiful sister, he clamored to see Lu Mengjian, and cried for a long time, Fang Yuan took it upon himself to bring Li Qi and Zhong'er over.

When the carriage stopped, Lu Mengjian was busy working in the courtyard, and Liu's mother was happy to have someone chatting and helping to do the work, and suddenly heard a young child's voice shouting outside the 'door': "Beautiful sister, open the 'door' quickly!" ”

Lu Mengjian heard it familiarly, wiped his hands on his apron and quickly opened the 'door' latch, and was unexpectedly thrown into his arms by a child, knocked into it, and when he looked down, it was Zhong'er, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Zhong'er, why are you here, where is your mother?" Lu Mengjian stretched out his hand to hold Zhong'er in his arms, but he didn't expect this little guy to be much heavier, which made Lu Mengjian's face red.

"Hey, Mengjian, why did you pick him up, your back injury has only been healed for a long time, what if you are flashed by this stinky boy," Without waiting for Zhong'er to answer, Li Qi's family had already stepped forward, Lu Mengjian laughed happily when he heard this, gently put Zhong'er on the ground, and affectionately grabbed Aunt Li's arm.

"What kind of wind is blowing today, so many distinguished guests are blowing here, Aunt Li is about to sit in the house, I haven't seen you for so long, I miss me!" As Lu Mengjian spoke, he led Aunt Li and Zhong'er to the room to sit down, making tea and taking pastries, until Zhong'er ate his mouth full of foam, and did not forget to shout "beautiful sister" sweetly, which made Lu Mengjian full of joy.

After lunch at noon, Zhong'er couldn't bear to be tired, so he went to the east wing room to take a nap.

Li Qishi couldn't help but feel strange when he saw the big iron furnace in the courtyard, which was different from the furnace he had seen on the other day, and heard that this was the distillation furnace used by Lu Mengjian to extract the 'fine' oil, which aggravated his curiosity, after all, she and Lu Mengjian had also tried to refine the 'fine' oil in Shita Village before, but the conditions were extremely simple at that time, and the utensils used were only made up of a few broken pots, so when she saw this big object, she became more and more eager to try.

It happened that two days ago, when Lu Mengjian tested the furnace, the effect was not very obvious, and he always wanted to find another opportunity to try, but he suffered from not having enough fresh 'flowers'.

This distillation furnace was originally a drawing drawn by Lu Mengjian after being improved by modern technology, coupled with the skills of Liu Blacksmith's 'refined' Zhan, it is even several times more convenient to ignite the fire and heat than the stove used on weekdays, so there is no need for air blowing, Aunt Li will easily ignite the furnace and heat it up.

Because the belly of this iron distillation furnace is several times larger than the "pot" furnace spliced before, it takes a long time to boil the water alone. Although Lu Mengjian has lived in Shita Village for only a month, the people in the village also know a little, and they will be far away, so they will have nothing to do and ask casually.

Although there are no major events in the village, the trivial things are constant, and the parents occasionally find it funny, Aunt Li just casually said some jokes that she heard, but Lu Mengjian also listened to them with relish.

"Do you remember that after you disappeared the next day after you arrived in our village, Zhong'er and his father found you at Zhao Tieshu's house?" Aunt Li was talking, and suddenly asked mysteriously, Lu Mengjian was stunned for a moment, thinking of the trouble that ignorance brought to them at that time, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, so he nodded shamefully.

"Didn't there be a crazy girl who looked at the second stunned man in their family at that time, hey, I didn't think about it, these two people really dealt with each other. A few days ago, the crazy girl's family came to the 'door', saying that they were looking for their own daughter', but when they saw that she married herself out quietly, her face changed at that time, but looking back, it was a blessing in misfortune that the girl could find a second stunned child, and as a result, Zhao Tieshu gave the matchmaker, and the two have since married. Aunt Li laughed, and Lu Mengjian's face turned red all of a sudden.

It wasn't a glorious thing, but it became a good thing in Aunt Li's mouth, Lu Mengjian just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, and suddenly thought of the temper of the little duck girl when he heard others say it, so he said with a slight suspicion: "I didn't expect that the second stunned and his mother would still open it, wasn't it the two who agreed to be good at the beginning." ”

When Aunt Li heard this, she shook her head at the corners of her lips, lowered her voice and said, "Tut, I think the second stunned mother is not as good as Zhao Tieshu, she was the one who responded to this 'door' family affair, but afterwards she always muttered behind her back that it was Zhong'er and his father who provoked trouble, so she couldn't get off the stage." This is not a crazy girl in their house for a short time, I heard that the second stunned mother was quite good to the crazy girl at first, but then it was not good, especially after the marriage was engaged, alas, every day to make this child do east and west, in case something goes wrong, even beat and scold, it's really pitiful. It's a pity that the girl has a bad brain, and she doesn't dare to tell anyone when she is beaten, and the second stunned person is also a bad brain, and she usually can't even take care of herself, so she can still protect her daughter-in-law, poor ......"

Lu Mengjian only knew one of them before and didn't know the other, where did he think that Aunt Duck was such a temperament', although it was caused by herself, and the marriage between the two stunned and the crazy girl was fulfilled, but when she heard that the crazy girl was suffering like this in her mother-in-law's house, she still couldn't bear it in her heart, so she sighed and hung her head silently.

Thinking about it, Aunt Li was also sad in her heart, so she changed the topic and pulled it to herself, "But speaking of being a mother-in-law, is it possible that once a 'woman' becomes a mother-in-law, she will become a bad person, alas, it's really hard to say!" ”

"Aunt Li, isn't it Zhong'er, her 'milk' and 'milk' are making things difficult for you again?" Lu Mengjian already knew that Aunt Li's mother-in-law was difficult to get along, and remembered the scene when Aunt Li was sad and weeping in front of him that day, so he asked with concern.

"It's not difficult, it's just that every time I go to that house, I always feel sad. After you left, the sister-in-law was still staying at Zhong'er's 'milk' and 'milk' house and refused to leave, thinking that it was not as comfortable as her own home. After a long time, the old lady was naturally not happy, after all, there were more guests in the house, and she always needed to spend time preparing food and drink, but Zhong'er and his "milk" and "milk" family 'spring' tenants of acres of land, because the sister-in-law came back, she had already delayed the time to turn the seeds, not to mention that there were still some 'chickens' and ducks to feed at home, and the sister-in-law refused to reach out after she came back, and these fell on me and Zhong'er and his father's head. The more Aunt Li thought about it, the more angry she became, and she burst into tears as she spoke.

"That's all it takes, we are cattle and horses to help his family, and he won't even say a word of thanks. Although our family Zhong'er has now worshiped the seventh uncle as a teacher, but he only used to study on weekdays, and he still had to go back to his house to eat and sleep, but he didn't expect his family to even be reluctant to give me Zhong'er a hot bun to eat, Zhong'er was so hungry that he could only go to the backyard neighbor's house to ask for food. When I went to ask about this, Zhong'er and his 'milk' and 'milk' were still vibrant, saying that the ancestor had accumulated eight lifetimes of virtue and let the seventh uncle take Zhong'er to study medicine, since he was an apprentice, he should let the master take care of food and housing, and said that people who went out to apprentice are like this, do you say that what she said is human words! Uncle Seven didn't mention any conditions, so he taught us Zhong'er medical skills, and we couldn't thank Dade too late, but his 'milk' and 'milk' were so faceless...... If these words reach the ears of the seventh uncle, people still don't know what to think of us......"

"How can there be such an unreasonable person in this world," Lu Mengjian said indignantly, seeing Aunt Li crying, he hurriedly handed over a handkerchief, grabbed Aunt Li's shoulder and comforted softly, "Since she is so inconsiderate of you, why do you bother to do odd jobs for her family." Auntie, I think you're just too good/'sex', so you can be bullied by her like this, in my opinion, it's not a way for you to endure like this, how she treats Zhong'er, you have seen it, no matter what, you have to think about the child, you can't let Zhong'er eat the last meal without the next meal. ”

"What can I do, Zhong'er and his father have always been filial and obedient to their parents at home, Zhong'er and his 'milk' and 'milk' are no longer good for me and Zhong'er, but after all, she is still my child's father's mother, after all, it is a family affection that blood is thicker than water, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Zhong'er and his father, so even if I have all kinds of grievances, I have to bear it." Aunt Li has always taken Li Dazhuang's ideas as the priority, and has always given Li Dazhuang enough face in front of outsiders, almost never quarreling and blushing, at most just closing the 'door' to lower her voice and quarrel a little, so everyone in Shita Village knows that Li Dazhuang and his wife love the old and love the young, but who knows the sadness in this.

Although Aunt Li is full of grievances, she can only bear it alone, Zhong'er is still young, how can she know that her mother is bitter in her heart, and Li Dazhuang has never comforted her with a few words.

"Aunt Li, forgive Mengjian for making a presumptuous opinion, it's really not good, you and Uncle Li brought Zhong'er to live with me, do you think it?" After Lu Mengjian finished speaking, she saw Aunt Li stop her tears and be stunned on the spot.
