Chapter 151: A Day Trip to Summer
Soybean's little confinement has been done for two months, and by the time she gets up and can go out for a walk, the weather is already hot. The two stores in the city have also gone from being full of customers in the new store to making normal profits and turnover.
This is a normal situation, Xia He was very panicked at first, she felt that it must be because Dongyang County had the appearance of a store that imitated them, and pulled out some of their customers.
Huang Dou didn't say anything to her carefully, the opening was hot for three days, and the new store was red for three months. Just let her calculate the daily turnover and benefits of the store and make money. Money can't be earned by you alone, that's not making money, that's getting into trouble.
Xia He is still too young, and if she wants to be trained, Huang Dou is expected to be able to stand alone in at least five to ten years.
Huang Dou also intends to let Da Chun run more behind Zhao Dashan, Xiaoqiu, Yun Fei, and Yun Xiang still let them be more literate, and they can also use it in the future.
Zhao Dashan has no opinion on these decisions. He felt that Huang Dou was fully capable of doing this, and she decided to do it right.
And the reason why soybeans can come out is because Huang's precious concubine Xiaolian was born in early June, and soybeans were allowed to go out by Zhao Dashan.
Xiaolian gave birth to a son, and the happiest one is Huang Guigui, who smiles happily and walks with the wind.
Huang Guigui personally took a boat to Nanshan Town to pick up Grandma Huang, but Grandma Huang did not come. A concubine giving birth to a child, even if it is a boy, is not worth Grandma Huang's personal trip.
The soybeans who can come out to swing want to swim in the lake, Xiaolian has to do confinement, even if she doesn't do confinement, she will not come out to make money by boating in the lake again. Zhao Dashan simply rented a larger boat and took Soybeans, Huang Tao's family and Huang Delei's family to the lake.
On the surface of the lake in June, the breeze blows through the lake, which is neither hot nor dry, and the water surface ripples, and occasionally you can see swimming fish.
Ping'an and Tsai simply lay on the bow of the boat to watch the swimming fish, and when they saw it, they shouted and shouted for a while. Zhao Dashan and Zhang Xiaohu held down in the back, afraid that they would fall into the water if they were excited.
Kang Kang also wanted to learn from his two brothers to lie down and watch, but Huang Delei didn't dare to let him do this, so he could only hug him tightly, squatting aside and pointing out to him the swimming fish that flickered in the water.
Xiao Haiyang doesn't understand anything, but he has a heart that wants to join in the fun, and he keeps fluttering to go to his brothers.
In the end, seeing that the yellow peach was ground to the point that there was no way, Soybean asked the boatman to fetch a bucket of water and put it on Class A, and let him go to play with it to calm down.
The cool breeze is blowing, and in the distance is the high city wall of Dongyang County. The rivers are staggered, the blue waves are rippling, and in the distance on the water surface are large lotus leaves.
After swimming in the water for a long time, the boat saw a high embankment in the distance, so the group simply abandoned the boat and walked along the green shade of the embankment.
As soon as they came ashore, it immediately became the children's world, and Ping An and the little tiger boy ran around happily. The adults also fell clean, and let them go around and around.
The two soybean sisters and Wu Yueniang spread out blankets under a green shade and prepared a picnic. Cut fruits, cold cuts, vegetables that can be eaten raw, prepared snacks.
Soybean also borrowed a tea stove from the boatman that could boil water, and boiled a pot of lotus leaf tea. Put the rock sugar you brought, but it's not unpleasant.
Zhao Dashan and Zhang Xiaohu ran to the riverside to find a boatman to borrow a harpoon and start spearing, seeing that they had a good harvest, Huang Delei also put down Kangkang and walked over. Three big men, childishly playful.
As soon as Kang Kang hit the ground, he immediately stepped on his little short legs and followed the two elder brothers to join in the fun. Little Ocean has been seven or eight months old, and it's time for the teething to drool. When it was time to eat, whoever hugged him would grab something from someone else and stuff it into his mouth.
Soybean's hair, Zhao Dashan's collar, Wu Yueniang's fingers, when Huang Delei hugged him, he directly threw himself on his uncle's face and gnawed his nose.
Looking at the cute little ocean, soybeans are still stunned sometimes, Zhao Dashan saw it in his eyes, and his heart hurt like anything, but he didn't dare to say it.
He remembered that on the day Xiaoyu got married, he told his mother that even if they had no children in their lives, it would not be the turn of others to make irresponsible remarks. Now he regrets it, it is true that it is not the turn of others to talk about children without children, but Huang Dou likes children so much, how can they not have children.
Is it because he said in vain that Doudou would have such a difficulty? Zhao Dashan looked at Zhang Xiaohu, who was dedicated to the Buddha because of the yellow peach giving birth to a little tiger boy, should he learn from Zhang Xiaohu, sincerely seek Buddha, and bless his little girl?
This summer is destined to be an irresistible summer day.
The most important thing was not the heat, it was in early July that the news came from Beijing that the emperor was seriously ill.
As soon as this news came out, how many people began to move.
Zhao Dashan, who was originally going to take soybeans and go to Nanshan Town to build a villa in seclusion after the autumn, was also sent to Ling'an by Mr. Ankang to secretly assist Ling'an to guard Dong Zhichuan.
Accompanying Zhao Dashan was Kang Ping.
It's for them both to pick up the credit! As long as King Cheng succeeds, a great credit is proper. If he doesn't succeed, Ankang dares to put his eldest grandson on it, which is also a kind of determination, and if he doesn't succeed, he will become benevolent.
Zhao Dashan did not hesitate to agree to Mr. Ankang's arrangement, he is just a businessman, born from the grassroots, but he is also ambitious. Just returned to the small courtyard and looked at the soybeans who were sitting in the shade of the tree peeling lotus seeds, Zhao Dashan didn't know how to open his mouth to tell her the news.
Doudou had a small birth, and he immediately sold the big ship and decided to wait for Doudou to be sick and take care of her.
And now, seeing that the emperor is seriously ill, King Cheng has gone into hiding. Ling'an is the key to King Cheng's success this time, maybe it is a high-ranking official, maybe it is a death in a different place.
Could it be that he said to Huang Dou, Doudou, I want to go to Ling'an to help King Cheng make a great cause, and earn you the title of Mrs. Destiny back?
"Brother Dashan, look at the fresh lotus seeds, this is what the second sister bought today, and she just sent her sister-in-law Chang to send them."
"Fresh lotus seeds so early?" Zhao Dashan sat opposite the soybeans and watched the soybeans peel lotus seeds.
The turquoise lotus pod, the white and tender slender hands, deftly picked out the green lotus seeds inside, and stacked them in the white porcelain plate in front of them.
"I bought more than a dozen, and my sister sent my sister-in-law to send me five. Taste fresh. Saying that, she smiled and lowered her voice: "I didn't send it to the third sister-in-law, and the second sister said that she would send it later." ”
Looking at the soybeans pretending to be mysterious, Zhao Dashan felt a little funny, would Wu Yueniang care about a few lotus pods? It's just a trick of yellow peach coaxing soybeans, and soybeans may not understand, but they are happy with it.
"A few days ago, we went to the lake and didn't see a ripe lotus pod, why did we have it so quickly?"
"The second sister said that it was not from outside the city, it seemed to be picked from the countryside. By the way, why did you go today? Why didn't you come back until now, have you eaten? Soybean peeled off a lotus seed, took out the lotus heart inside and put it aside, and handed the lotus seed with the lotus heart removed to Zhao Dashan: "Taste it, it's very tender." ”
Zhao Dashan stretched out his hand to take the lotus seeds, put them in his mouth and chewed them slowly, they were really tender, a little sweet, with a little fragrance of lotus seeds.
"Mr. Ankang had something to do with me and Kangping, so we ate out by the way, I was in a hurry, and I didn't feel full."
"Then I'll ask Marven's daughter-in-law to heat up the lunch meal again, and you can eat some more." As he spoke, Huang Dou was about to turn around and call Dongmei and Yunmei, who were waiting in the shade of another tree on the side.
"No, I'm not hungry right now." Zhao Dashan stretched out his hand and pressed Doudou's hand: "Doudou, I have something to tell you." ”
"Oh, what's the matter, you can tell me."
"Mr. Ankang sent me and Kangping to Ling'an, saying that he was assisting Ling'an Taishou Dong Zhichuan to work together. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to give us a credit. ”
"Do you think the credit is for nothing? Isn't there any danger? Huang Dou looked at Zhao Dashan.
"Nothing dangerous, don't worry. Mr. Ankang was able to send Kangping out, which shows that he has a great grasp of success this time. I estimate that I will be back in a month to a half at most. Looking at the soybeans who were a little anxious, Zhao Dashan held her hand and didn't let go.
If Huang Dou is really an authentic country girl, she must believe what Zhao Dashan said 100%, there is no danger, just to pick up a credit. But she is not, throughout history, that time the battle for the throne was not paved by countless people with their lives!
Huang Dou took a deep breath and suppressed the tears that were about to well. Peel out a lotus seed, don't even go to the lotus heart, just put it in your mouth and chew it slowly.
The fragrance is tender and crispy with a slight bitterness, this is the way life is!
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
"Doudou, it's really fine, I'll be back in a month and a half at most, maybe it won't take that long. When this summer is over, we will go back to Nanshan Town, where the manor should have been built.
Listening to Sun Wu's last time, there was a wild chrysanthemum bush outside the villa, and I asked him not to destroy it as much as possible, and when autumn was full of wild chrysanthemums, it was also very beautiful. ”
Zhao Dashan remembered the wild chrysanthemums that went up the mountain in autumn and covered the mountains, and at that time he just thought about eating and dressing warmly, so as not to let his mother and younger siblings suffer. I didn't think there was anything nice about those wild flowers and weeds, except that my mother picked them back to dry them and make tea.
"Plant an orchard, a peach orchard, a pear orchard, an apricot orchard, it must be beautiful when it blooms in spring."
"Okay. We simply planted a little, there is a small pond at the bottom of the mountain, planted lotus roots, looked at the flowers in the summer, and dug the lotus roots in the autumn to sell for money. What else do you want to plant? I'll ask me to go back to the dock and ask the merchants to help me bring some different varieties back and try them. ”
"It's all right, anyway, it's good-looking and practical, but it's too troublesome to take care of, and this is a headache." Huang Dou thought about it and felt that there was nothing else.
"It's not troublesome to take care of, the villagers in Nanshan Town have a lot of farms, just let them take care of it."
"Yes, are you leaving?" Huang Dou looked at Zhao Dashan.
"Yes, I'm going to the docks right now." Zhao Dashan also looked at the soybeans.
"Zhao Dashan, no matter whether you succeed or fail, I just want you to come back alive, you know?"
"Okay, I promise you."
The summer wind blows under the osmanthus tree, the copper bells jingle, and under the tree are two people who are about to be separated in a hurry.
