Chapter 43 Planning the Great Yard

Am I seducing someone else? It was Situ Ran who pestered himself every day, but when he saw his father and mother looking at him with a loveless face, he was afraid that he was thinking too much, so he asked seriously

"Daddy, you two believe it?"

Without waiting for his father and mother to answer, he continued, "Father and mother, I do go up the mountain every day, and there is indeed a noble son living in the cave, although I don't know what his identity is, but it is absolutely unattainable!" I'm not his concubine, people are just looking for things in the mountains, and I just cook for people every day, and give me ten taels of silver a month to work,"

"Really, why don't you tell us?"

"I won't tell you that I promised, but people can't say it. If you don't believe me, I'll bring him in a moment, and we'll make it clear to your face!" And that mountain ginseng was also dug for me, otherwise I didn't know where to know! ”

"Really?" Little Tao's father and mother asked together.

Xiao Tao nodded vigorously, "Hmm! Really, trutruly, truer than real gold! "Thinking about it for a while, I have to quickly find Situ Ran to make a confession.

Xiao Tao Niang suddenly reacted again, looking at Xiao Tao Dad, "What mountain ginseng?" ”

Xiao Tao's father excitedly pulled her to the side to dodge, and came to her ear to say that Xiao Tao dug up the mountain ginseng and sold it for two hundred taels of silver. Naturally, the dividends of Xiaotao were also added to the mountain ginseng.

Xiao Tao Niang immediately shouted excitedly, "Really! ”

Xiao Tao Dad pulled her, and Xiao Tao Niang hurriedly stopped. Rubbing his hands happily, two hundred taels, two hundred taels, great! It's great, I've lived so long and haven't seen as much as two hundred taels of silver! My family can live a good life! It doesn't matter how excited the old lady is!

Xiao Tao took a few steps forward and walked up to the old lady, looking at her condescendingly, and the old lady felt a little depressed inexplicably.

"I said grandma, we are a family, break the bones and connect the tendons, let's not say that my brother is going to be the champion, you ruin my reputation like this, my brother can't be an official, aren't you afraid that the ancestors of the Zhou family will crawl out of the grave to find you? Aren't you afraid that my grandfather will be angry and divorce you?

Besides, even if I am the concubine of the noble son on the mountain, I guess that the prince is not a prince and nobleman, or the son of the big official, even if it is a concubine, I will be a side concubine or a concubine in the future, not to mention the fragrant and spicy food, grandma is going to kowtow when she sees it, you say you are so mean to me and my mother, can I spare you? Well? ”

The old lady had peanut skin on her mouth, and she looked at Xiao Tao in a daze and looked at herself with her eyebrows raised, and her whole body was inexplicably cold.

"You, you, what do you want to do?"

Xiao Tao turned his head and walked to the bridal gifts, opened the lid of the box, and looked at it, there was nothing valuable, two jars of wine, two cheesecloths, and a box of tea. When I opened another box, there were two geese inside.

"Cut, I want to marry your aunt and grandmother even for these things!"

Then he turned his head and glanced at the old lady who was still in a daze, and said lightly, "Old lady, I don't want to do anything, you don't want to be ashamed of our family!" You're so old, there's no harm in accumulating some oral virtue, and if you have a long tongue, you'll go to hell and your tongue will be pulled out! Do it yourself! ”

After speaking, he went to the carriage to carry things to the house, Shao Shan and Shao Cong also hurried to help, Xiao Tao Niang also happily forgot her worries because of two hundred taels of silver, glared at the deflated old lady, and deliberately carried the big meat to the house, isn't it greedy? You're hungry!

When the things are placed, Xiao Tao basically has a score in his heart, and the reason why Li Tianba found himself is probably because of Situ Ran. His family is in trouble, so he wants to find a big backer.

watched the father and mother sit in the middle room, and the two younger brothers sat on the side and ate the candy in their hands carefully.

Seeing that his parents were still worried, he squatted in front of the two of them, "Daddy, don't worry, it's late today, I'll go to that noble son tomorrow morning, he will definitely help me, don't worry!" The Li Zheng family found me, probably because they knew that they were noble, and they wanted me to connect them! Dad, how did the county order their family? ”

Xiao Tao's father stumbled on the dry tobacco, "I heard in the town that the county order family has been convicted, and the autumn queen asked to behead, but he couldn't find the 100,000 taels of silver he embezzled, and he didn't admit it, and he refused to recruit!" You said that a county order can be greedy for 100,000 taels, and he has been an official here for more than ten years, but he has killed the people! ”

Xiao Tao's eyes lit up, "Hmph!" I can't admit it, otherwise I won't be able to wait for the autumn and be cut off! That's right, it's his brother-in-law, it's definitely not clean, don't worry, don't worry, I'll figure it out myself! I went to cook, ate and rested early! ”

Xiao Tao Niang hurriedly stood up and pulled Xiao Tao, "I'll do it, my daughter is a great hero of our family, I've been running for a day, rest!" ”

Xiao Tao didn't go hard, sat on the stool and calculated, decided after a while, went to the kitchen and got a half-burned wooden stick back, "Dad, the current silver is enough for us, I designed the yard like this." ”

Xiao Tao first drew a large rectangle on the ground, close to the east and then sat north and faced south to draw two rows of houses, three courtyards in the front row and four courtyards in the back, because the land bought by himself was longer from north to south, and then each one was a single courtyard, with east and west wings, and the moon gate was left on the south wall. The yard doesn't have to be too big.

The back four courtyards are connected, there is a road in front of the door, and there is a four-meter-wide passage leading to the front yard in the middle of the first three courtyards. That's only half the land.

Xiao Tao painted here, glanced at his father, saw that he did not object, and his eyes were hot, knowing that he must have understood, and he must have been moved.

Then, in the remaining open space to the west, Xiao Tao first drew a row of straw huts against the wall for the mule carts to shelter from the wind and rain, thinking that if the silver was enough, he would build a few more warehouses.

Then the outermost south courtyard wall faced the main road, and a gate tower was built. Enter the carriage at the corner gate on the west side.

"Dad, you are a professional, I paint these are the general ideas in my heart, my father and mother live in the courtyard in the middle of the front, and the others are one of us in a courtyard, choose whatever we want, and the splendid is also left for her, so that we live together, and do not interfere with each other, even if Shaoshan Shaocong marries a daughter-in-law in the future, there will be fewer contradictions between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, how good!"

Xiao Tao Meimei looked forward to the day when the large yard she designed was built.

Shao Cong and Shao Shan looked at the paintings on the ground and also understood, and pointed to the two courtyards behind, "We live in the back, the back is quiet, suitable for reading, and the front is reserved for the eldest sister and big brother!" ”

Xiao Tao smiled, "Okay!" When the time comes, you can choose it! ”

The two of them are eating candy, and their little mouths are red, which is very cute!

"By the way, Dad, and the third and fourth uncles have also helped us a lot, when they come back to see what the two of them think, if the two of them are willing to live with us, they will have two more yards in the back."
