Thank you for the strong support of all new and old readers, such as Overlord, Slightly Wrong, Dancing and Nerni, etc., hereby add a more chapter, just coded out, to be honest, my eyes hurt, everyone go to bed early, good night. )

Fang Jie heard the sound of the door closing, staring at the clothes with a pair of starry eyes, he unconsciously remembered the events of the day, and then turned his head to look around the room, as if he suddenly felt much more empty and cold. So he asked in a loud voice, "Who's outside?" ”

Dongzi was leaning on the pillar, his hands in his sleeves to keep warm, and when he heard the master's question, he hurriedly responded, "Childe, the little one is here." ”

"Go and add more charcoals."

"Yes." Dongzi ran to the stove and came back with a pot of fine silver filigree carbon, but as soon as he opened the door and entered the room, he was sneezed by the oncoming heat. He hurriedly put the charcoal basin away, and said with a smile, "Childe's room is too warm, and the little one can't hold back for a while..."

Is it warm? Fang Jie raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything for a long time, and at the end, he seemed to be a little irritable, beckoning Dongzi to step forward, "It's a bit abrupt to go to Nangou Village as a guest today, you go down to prepare some thank-you gifts, and send them for me tomorrow to apologize." ”

"Thank you?" Dongzi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Heaven and earth are of the fourth class, which class does the son want to send to the Zhang family?" ”

Fang Jie's brows furrowed even deeper, and he said impatiently, "Those are all used for gifts in various mansions, how can they be sent to the farmer's house?" You go out into the street and pick up some food to eat. ”

Where did Dongzi dare to ask more, and hurriedly responded to the salute and was about to withdraw. But before he could walk to the door, Fang Jie said again, "Remember to buy a few ice creams and send them with the sugar man." Also, you and Wang San also went to the account room to receive two taels of silver. ”

Dongzi heard that there was a reward to be taken, and he was so happy that he jumped three feet high, and responded with a loud voice, "Xie Gongzi rewards, the little one must do a good job." ”

Fang Jie waved him down, and then picked up a half-read travelogue on the case, but unfortunately his eyes were fixed on the page, but his mind flew away to an unknown distance with countless complicated tastes...

Sometimes, people always try to find something in their lives that they don't even know about. These things can't be caught or touched, and some traces can only be faintly seen when I dream back in the middle of the night, looking at the dim room.

And one day, that kind of thing suddenly appeared in front of them as if it had fallen from the sky, and people without exception began to wonder if they had fallen into some Gu...

Winter is getting deeper, and the wind and snow are getting heavier. Often after waking up in the night, people will find that the white cotton clothes worn by the mountain villages are three points thicker.

Pu Cao and Chunni wore thick flower turbans on their heads and a dogskin hat buttoned up, covering them like robbers with only two eyes, and thick cotton gloves on their hands, and vigorously wielding a rake made of large wooden planks to shovel the snow off the greenhouse.

This is the work they must do when they get up early these days, and they can't be lazy at all. Because the snow is too heavy, it is easy to collapse the window edges, not to mention, it will delay lifting the grass curtain to light, making the vegetable seedlings in the greenhouse yellow and ruining their appearance.

Liu Housheng's leg injury was not healed and he couldn't help, and he felt very guilty when he saw the two women suffering. So, when I went back to the greenhouse, I limped to fetch water and water the vegetables.

Peach Blossom and Shanzi were ordered by their sister-in-law not to go out, so they also followed Liu Housheng to help scoop water. Everyone big and small is busy as much as they can, and they are full of good expectations for the future.

Of course, Zhang Gui is not included in all of them, this talented man has been studying like crazy since he was ridiculed and trampled on his self-esteem by his classmates that day. Xu is counting on the day he re-enters the school to make a blockbuster and blind the eyes of those superficial people.

Pu Cao didn't have any idea about this, although he lacked a labor to help, but it was a good thing that no one was around to stare at him from time to time and say sour things, so he let this talented man stab his head day and night.

The peasant families have no work in the winter, and most of them only eat two meals. Pucao and Chunni shoveled the snow and pulled out the weeds between the vegetable seedlings, but they were so tired that their arms were sore, and they didn't want to get up at all while sitting in the house. But children digest well and are hungry quickly, and when Shanzi secretly rubs their little belly over and over again, they can't be lazy.

The two were discussing what to make to eat simple and filling, but Chen's second sister-in-law in the West Courtyard stepped on the thick snow nest and sent a large bowl of stewed tofu with snow mushrooms. When I was sleepy, someone sent a pillow, which was definitely a joyful thing, and the two smiled and beckoned Chen's second sister-in-law to come into the house to sit down, but Chen's second sister-in-law said that the family was picking up and eating, and she would come back another day to gossip.

In this way, the two of them did not stay any longer to discharge her from the hospital, but they did not want to see the carriage that had left last night coming from a distance again.

Dongzi jumped down from the wheel of the car with a smile and saluted Pu Cao, with a look of humility and a little smugness, which was very strange.

Pu Cao was puzzled, so he said, "This little brother, could it be that Boss Fang forgot to tell something yesterday?" ”

Dongzi hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile, "Little sister-in-law, don't worry, my son-in-law has nothing to order." It's just that the son said that he suddenly came to the door yesterday and let the sister-in-law bother to eat food, and today he sent the little one to the street to buy some edible food and send it as a thank you gift. ”

After speaking, he reached out and opened the car door for Pucao and the others to see.

Chunni and Chen's second sister-in-law looked at each other and immediately exclaimed. Originally, they heard Dongzi say that it was for food, and they felt that this rich boy was a little stingy. After all, neighbors who are usually friendly with each other often send some food when they walk around, but they are just some radish cabbage or dried mushrooms. Where did they think that the food of the rich people was so different from the standards of their peasant families?

There were 20 catties of japonica rice in the carriage alone, a large bag of fine noodles, two jars of vegetable oil, four pieces of cotton cloth, two boxes of embroidery thread, four boxes of dim sum, and the remaining frosting, soy sauce, vinegar, star anise and other spices and sundries were also complete.

Looking at Pu Cao and the others in a daze, Dongzi was extremely proud, this was the result of his half-night thinking last night. With not much silver, but almost all the things that are rarely seen in the farmhouse on weekdays, he seems to have heard the praise of his son-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, there are still ten catties of pork belly here, which is the pig that was just killed in the butcher shop this morning, and it is fresh." Dongzi took down a small wicker basket and put it on display, and then took off an oiled paper bag hanging on the wall of the car and said with a smile, "This is the ice and candy man that Gongzi specially ordered me to buy, and my sister-in-law took it." ”

He thought that Pucao would take it immediately and thank Dade for his thanks. I didn't want Pu Cao, but I frowned and shook my head and refused, "Little brother, let's bring these foods back, Fang Gongzi is already grateful for giving us a deposit to help us grow vegetables." He came to visit yesterday, and we should be hospitality, how can we accept a thank you gift? The little brother went back to thank me on my behalf, but these things must not be left. ”

Dongzi's mouth opened wider and wider when he heard this, and he looked back and forth between the large pile of things on the car and the calm face of the grass for a long time, but he still couldn't believe that this little peasant girl who was not good-looking actually rejected the kindness of her son! Seeing a car full of good things but pushing them out, this is really a strange thing every year, especially this year!

He swallowed a few times and reconfirmed, "Little sister-in-law, these are japonica rice and fine noodles." The cotton cloth is also good, and I spent a few taels of silver just to buy it..."

Pu Cao didn't wait for him to finish, shook his head again and said, "Little brother doesn't need to persuade much, it won't be rewarded." You can go back and thank your master on my behalf. ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to carry the wicker basket back to the car, Dongzi was so anxious that she almost jumped up, wanting to open her mouth and beg Chunni and Chen's second sister-in-law on the side to help her intercede, but she didn't want these two people, one turned her head and tried her best not to look at those objects, and the other was stunned, but she didn't mean to stop and persuade Pucao.

This is an errand given to him by his master, and he can't be praised, so he won't go back and be scolded.

This kid is also a quick one, and shouted loudly to the coachman in front of him, Lao Wang, and the two of them also moved all the rice and flour baskets on the car.

Pu Cao was also anxious when she saw this, but she stepped forward to stop but her fists were invincible with four hands, and she was a woman who could pull with a man, and in the end she could only watch the carriage become empty, and she turned around and ran away like a desperate escape. The two doors at the rear of the car, which had not yet had time to be closed, hit one place from time to time and then spread out, which seemed to be in a hurry.

The three of them were silent for a moment, Chunni quietly let out a mouthful of white mist, turned her head to look at Pu Cao and whispered, "Shall we chase?" ”

Pu Cao looked at her eyes from time to time to glance at the large pile of things on the ground, full of reluctance, and couldn't help but be angry and funny, "The carriage has run away, what are you chasing?" Let's move to the house, and when you sell vegetables in the future, you can return the money to others. ”

Chunni heard that she could leave these delicious foods, and immediately smiled happily, stepped forward and hugged the noodle bag and said straight, "Oh, why didn't you say it earlier, look at this noodle bag is stained with snow, and it will be bad if it melts after a while, and the good things will be thundered and split by the sky." ”

Chen's second sister-in-law also smiled and stepped forward to take a hand, and the three of them moved everything back to the house after two trips back and forth.

When Peach Blossom and Shanzi saw such a "bumper harvest", they were so happy that they rushed forward with a smile and asked when their sister-in-law bought these good things.

Pu Cao remembered Dongzi's words just now and opened the big oiled paper bag, and sure enough, there were five sugar men and five ice cakes in it. Not to mention how the candy man is intact and lifelike, just that the cone-shaped ice is extremely delicately carved, with some flowers and birds carved around it, and a few holes dug at the top, but I don't know what the function is.

Shanzi went crazy with joy, and ran all over the ground with his arms in his arms. Chen's second sister-in-law also praised, "This son-in-law is really careful, and even the child's playthings were sent together." ”

Pu Cao wrapped the rest of the sugar man and handed it to the peach blossom who was also full of eyes on the side, and said with a smile, "Fang Gongzi is a guest, I can't greet him in person, these two children are walking around with him, maybe they fell in his eyes." ”

Chen's second sister-in-law smiled and said nothing, and Pu Cao called Peach Blossom and Shanzi, "After eating later, you can go to Zhuangzi and Fu'er to play, divide the sugar man and Bing Yan, it's fun for everyone to play together." ”

The peach blossoms were crisp, and Shanzi seemed to be a little reluctant but nodded.

Chen's second sister-in-law hurriedly waved her hand, "Oh, this is not good, this is a good thing for children to be given." Our few leather monkeys were broken when they got their hands, but they disappointed their kindness. ”
