Chapter 268: Fortune telling

Xia Li has calculated that with so many seeds, he can probably harvest more than 600 catties of yapo. Five sixths of it was stolen at once, and she was so distressed that her stomach hurt. The key is that there are a pair of invisible eyes around to peep at your house all the time, and as soon as you have good things, they will pass them on to bandits, how unsafe.

She looked at the two sacks of yams, took out two of them and used them as mashed potatoes, and let the others be put in the storeroom. She is not afraid that these potatoes will be stolen or robbed by bandits again, the bandits dare to come to Dongrong Street, next door to Ye Mansion, and near the army to rob things, Ye Feng and so many soldiers can go home to farm.

There is only such a little potato left, and Ye Feng will help her stay. However, you have to send 20 catties to Yefu, 10 catties to the prefect Hu, 5 catties to the county magistrate Li, 20 catties to be eaten by Dangdang, and less than 50 catties to be used as seeds. Master Hu and Master Li had hints, but they didn't dare not give it.

Damn, it's a bit of a good thing, not only the government is worried about it, but even the bandits. Xia Li was angry and died.

Xia Li stayed in Xiashan to eat at home, and asked people to invite Zhao Liang's father and daughter to drink, and Zhao Liang was also busy in Zhuangzi for a day.

Zhao Liang was very embarrassed, feeling that he had let the Xia family be stolen on his own land. said to Xia, "Blame me for not thinking so much, if I send some soldiers to guard it at night when the potato is about to ripen, it won't be stolen." ”

Xia sighed, "How can you blame Lord Zhao, who would have thought that bandits would even steal these things, it's really hateful." ”

Zhao Liang said again, "Next time your family wants to harvest potatoes, I will send troops to keep vigil." Also, in the future, you should pay attention to safety when traveling, and it is best to go to Zhuangzi less often. When Lord Ye comes back, I will discuss with him to see how to find the nail. ”

Xia Shi said gratefully, "Thank you, Lord Zhao." ”

Zhao Liang's black face turned red again, and he said, "I didn't help you take care of the potato, so I can't thank you." ”

In the evening, when the guests were gone, Xia He quietly asked, "Sister, is the potato really so delicious?" ”

Xia Li took him into his arms and said, "Tomorrow my sister will cook one for you to taste." ”

Xia He blushed and said, "I don't eat." I lost a lot of valuable caramot, and I had an extra mouth, and my family became poorer. In the future, I will eat less and no longer eat meat and egg stew. ”

This child must have heard his family talk about his livelihood in the past.

Xia Li picked him up and sat on his lap, smiled along the tiles above his head, "Our family is rich, even if we lose the taro, we can't be poor." In the future, how should we live our lives, what we should eat and what we eat, He'er's favorite meat stew will be eaten every day. ”

Xia He finally put his heart at ease, smiled with crooked eyebrows, crawled in Xia Li's ear and said, "Sister, you are like my mother, my mother is also drifting like this." ”

Xia Li laughed, "Hush" and said, "He'er remember, this is a secret, don't tell anyone." ”

Xia He covered his mouth and said, "I know, I only tell my mother and sister. ”

The next day, Sister-in-law Wang, Xia Erni, and Xia Meiniang's family, who heard about it, all came to Xia's house.

When they came, Xia's mood was better, and they sent someone to invite Li and Dani over for dinner. In the next morning, I asked Xia Shan and Xia Zhu, who had finished selling meat, to call for dinner, and Wang Xin, who sent two dogs and one bear, and Erhu, who had finished school, also came.

It's rare for Xia to leave home so lively.

Xia Li asked Xia Zhu to leave more than 100 catties of pork belly and more than 100 catties of Houjia meat for her family, as well as many pork ribs, pork liver, and a few pig faces, and took them directly to Wang's house and asked Wang's sister-in-law to help make bacon.

Sister-in-law Wang's cooking bacon is a must. Xia Li made so much not only to eat at home, but also to send some to the Ye Mansion and the Zhao family.

Xia Zhu and Sister-in-law Wang happily agreed. Sister-in-law Wang has never known how to repay Xia Li's love, but this time she can finally help a little, and she is very happy.

Ye Feng and the others came back at noon three days later, and they heard about the theft of the potato in Hanjiang Mansion.

Ye Feng was very angry, the bandits stole it under his nose, and they also stole Xia Li's Zhuangzi, which made him extremely faceless.

Lord Yu made a personal favor, and the Xia family's yaro was kept by themselves, but most of the yamu planted next time still had to be sold to the government.

In the morning, after Ye Feng finished washing, he led Ye Li to Xia's house in a hurry.

Today's sun is particularly bright, they came to the door of the hanging flowers, and saw the colorful clothes with long ribbons tied on their legs hovering over the courtyard, several children chasing and playing in the courtyard, Xia Li sat under the eaves with a smile and watched them.

The Xia family went to the market with Tian Qing's family to buy things, and there were only a few children left in the family.

Xia Ju was the first to see them, and ran over and shouted, "Brother Ye, Brother Li." ”

When Zhao Niuniu saw it, she also shouted shyly, "Uncle Ye, Uncle Li." ”

The other, even younger, looked stunned, turned around and threw himself into Xia Li's arms.

Ye Feng walked in with Xia Ju and said with a smile, "This is Xia He?" ”

Xia Li got up and smiled, "Yes." He said to Xia He, "It's called Brother Ye, Brother Li." ”

Xia He was scared, lowered his eyelids and whispered, "Brother Ye, Brother Li." ”

Ye Feng smiled and took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and gave it to him as a greeting gift.

Ye Li agreed and bowed, more humble than when he saw Xia Li and the others before. He handed the package in his hand to Jin Ling and said with a smile, "This is a gift from my uncle and my cousin to your family and two brothers." ”

Xia Li invited Ye Feng to the East Chamber, let a few children continue to play in the yard, and Tian Qinglai invited Ye Li to drink tea in the outer courtyard.

Jin Ling took the tea and retreated, not closing the door.

There was no one in the house, and Ye Feng said hatefully, "I have written down this account, and I will ask Cao Min to get it back together at that time." ”

Xia Li said, "Okay, I'll wait, it's too annoying." He added, "Brother Ye, there must be the eyeliner of Evil Wolf Peak around my Zhuangzi or among acquaintances." ”

Ye Feng said, "Well, before you find that eyeliner, don't leave Dongrong Street if you have nothing to do, and it's best not to go outside the city without me to accompany you......"

Ye Feng was also worried, and gave Xia Li a safety education.

Xia Li nodded, and asked the question he had been concerned about, "Did you go to the Gulan Temple to see Master Yuhui, did he have any hints, did you see that you were fascinated by demonic energy?" ”

As soon as he said this, Ye Feng's face was full of smiles again. said, "Master Yuhui carelessly did not give people a fortune calculation, nor did he give my family a fortune calculation at my grandfather's request. But he looked at my face alone and calculated a hexagram for me. If I can find a girl who is a rat and get married in the Year of the Dragon, I will be able to prosper my family and husband, and I will be lucky in death. He raised his eyebrows again and smiled, "Lili, you are a rat, and the year after tomorrow happens to be the year of the dragon." My grandfather believed in the words of Master Yuhui very much, and he was very happy, and the master also counted the hexagram for my family, and my daughter-in-law was married, not only for me, but also for the family...... He was supposed to return to Beijing in a few days for the Chinese New Year, but in order for our affairs to go smoothly, he would not return to Beijing. Said to send a secret letter to my father immediately, and we will set our family affairs early next year, and marry you the year after tomorrow. ”
