Chapter 159 The rich flow oil, the poor have hot eyes, and the poultry and livestock live in herds
When Lan Mingguang left, he brought a letter from Yue'er, which was forwarded to Su Tan by King Qin. She is still thinking about Hui Zhi's mother and son, and there is still no news for so long.
But after Lan Mingguang walked for half a month, it was obvious that he might not have arrived in Guanzhong, and Yue'er received a letter from Su Tan.
The letter said that she had found Huizhi's mother and son, but after asking for opinions, Huizhi didn't want to come to Yue'er's side, she wanted to go to Chiyu's hometown to live, Su Tan felt that this was inappropriate, so she took the mother and son to Ganzhou.
The mother and son are now living a stable life, Chi Yu's share is still in hand, Su Tan has bought real estate and shops, and he personally sent the next person.
Hui Zhen also wrote a letter at the same time, saying that the child will definitely come here to visit Yue'er when the child is older in the future, and now she has a family business over there, so that Yue'er can rest assured.
took Hui Qian's letter and read it over and over again, and finally Yue'er cried bitterly, finally with the news of her mother and son, and she was so well placed by Su Tan, this heart can be regarded as letting go.
Shen Fu has been gone for a few days, and he went to Shenyang Zhongwei to brew pear blossom spring wine, and by the way, he also opened a place to make wine, and the wine will be shipped everywhere at the same time as it will be shipped back in the future.
There were a few people in the pot who went with Shen Fu, and when they got there, there were two people who quit because they were homesick.
One of these resignations is because there is a daughter-in-law at home, and the other is that he doesn't want to go back to Beishan, and he dislikes that it is too cold in winter here.
The new house has a three-way layout, and there are three cross-courtyards in the east and west, and the pot is not the most southeasterly due to feng shui reasons, which is the main entrance of the house. This side pays attention to the southeast door, saying that this is the Qinglong Gate. And the West Gate is unlucky, it is called the White Tiger Gate, and the owner of the house can suppress the White Tiger to be auspicious if you live. Otherwise, not to mention the white tiger's wealth, there will be continuous disasters. The second gate is open in the middle, and if this is a big place like the capital, there may be a garden between the back house and the front yard.
Su Tong promised Yue'er to dig a lotus pond in the main courtyard, dig up the black mud in the reed pond and plant lotus roots, and after the Dragon Boat Festival, the green leaves of the lotus pond will be full, with a few pink buds in between.
The lotus pond needs to use living water, and in the case of not being able to connect the river outside the park, Su Tong thought of a way. In fact, he didn't come up with it, but borrowed from the garden design method in the big house.
First, a small rockery was piled up on the side of the lotus pond, and the top of the rockery led to the wing, and a reservoir was built on the top of the wing. This reservoir is mainly used to collect rainwater, and then connect it to the rockery with pipes, forming a waterfall landscape. A small stream was dug out of the lotus pond, covered with sand and pebbles, and meandered out of the main courtyard, passing across the courtyard, and finally disappearing into the drainage ditch outside the courtyard wall. The advantage of this is to avoid the lotus pond overflowing all over the garden in the rainy season, and at the same time, artificial landscaping is done for the main courtyard and the cross courtyard.
There is a small pavilion by the lotus pond, in order to enjoy the snow in winter, this pavilion is actually designed as an octagonal two-story building, and the second floor also has a fire kang.
From the outside of the courtyard, it looks like a large compound inside the ordinary wall, and it looks like this from the inside, but in fact, this wall has its own words.
The reinforced fence is about the same height as the roof, and the double wall can be climbed inside, and when people stand in the middle of the wall and look out, a man of ordinary height will also show a head, and only Su Zhi can even expose his shoulders outside.
There are two entrances to the upper wall, one in the inverted room, where the brewing pot is located. The other is on the back of the house, and there are usually a few pot cooks living there.
Yue'er was not in a hurry to move to a new house, all of them had built such a large yard, how could it be before the late autumn froze.
After the main courtyard was built, Su Zhi was too damp, so he hung it first, and the fire kang was burned every day, and it was good to go over before winter.
Laneige has been trying the medicine for a month, and Su Tong ordered someone to prepare the medicinal materials that Yue'er will use, and she has already started to use the medicine at this time.
Before the medicine, the two of them went into the mountain once, to find a few old ginseng trees that Su Zhi was optimistic about, and there were many wild vegetables in this season, so they carried a basket back by the way.
However, this mountain ginseng is in the deep mountains, and they can't come back for three days after entering the mountain, so the two of them have been in the mountains for five days before returning.
The green fox and the night shadowless also followed, and when they came back, they brought more than twenty rabbits and all of them alive. Rabbits are a good thing, they give birth to a litter every month, as I said before.
These rabbits are sent to the farm, and the pillar arranges special personnel to take care of them, and they must hire someone who can raise rabbits, and they must prevent them from running away.
These twenty are divided into two litters, and the whole is ten pairs, and when the month is good, you can collect eighty rabbits, and when you are the next, you will receive thirty or fifty rabbits.
This year's chickens were hatched by Uncle Wang's family, and there were 300 of them. There are now fifty chickens that lay eggs as adults, and they harvest thirty or forty eggs a day.
There are more geese, and this thing is raised by the fish pond that is enclosed by the house, and the ducks are also raised. There are fifty ducks and more than two hundred geese.
Sister-in-law Wang doesn't know how to count, but she only knows that everything in her house is a flock, and the sheep are specially herded by her own family, which is more than the sheep in the whole village combined.
There were six or seven sows in a litter, all of which were kept to raise, and a few piglets were bought to make up enough for ten pigs.
Yue'er had to visit all these places in her house every day, and Su Zhi asked Qinghu to drive the mule cart to take the couple to them.
As soon as the two arrived at the farm today, the pillar ran over and said excitedly: "Master, two roe deer have been born, and four little roe deer have been added today." ”
"Okay, this year's income at home may be more than you here."
Su Tong gave affirmation, and went with him to the roe deer garden to see for a while.
Sister-in-law Wang has to come over every day to call the people in the livestock shed to eat, and at this time Yue'er turned around and saw her, and when she saw her expression, she asked with concern: "Sister-in-law, what's the matter, is it because you are not feeling well?" ”
Sister-in-law Wang's face turned red, and then said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's not tiring to work, it's nothing." ”
As soon as Yue'er saw her blushing, she pulled the person aside and whispered, "What's wrong?" ”
Sister-in-law Wang saw that Su Zhi couldn't hear it, so she whispered back: "It's a shame to say it at such an old age, madam, why do you think I have it again?" ”
This can make Yue'er's eyes hot, and she sighs while congratulating, she desperately wants to conceive one, she has been married for so long but there is no movement, and her sister-in-law Wang's eldest son is fourteen, but she is pregnant with another one. Alas, it is true that the rich are all oily, and the poor are not able to eat.
Yes, this time it was Yue'er's turn to look sad, and she didn't speak all the way back, so she sat on the mule cart in a daze.
Su Tong's martial arts practice has good ears, and he had already heard the words of Sister-in-law Wang at that time, but he didn't dare to mention it in front of Yue'er at this time, so he told her about his childhood.
"Daughter-in-law, do you remember when you went back to the house with Shen Xiangye?"
Yue'er shook her head and didn't say anything, Su Zhi said to herself.
