This meal was the most uncomfortable meal for star fruit.

Even if she was in Shuzhou Prison, even if she was specially taken care of by the Governor of An, she couldn't stop vomiting from being nauseous, she didn't feel so uncomfortable in her heart.

By the time the meal was finally finished, the star fruit's face was already stiff with a smile.

She thought she could take a lunch break at noon, but as soon as she returned to the house and sat down, the eldest aunt followed.

"Tao'er, the eldest aunt wants to talk to you, do you think it's convenient at this time?" She looked a little restrained, perhaps because she was nervous, she kept rubbing her hands, for fear of the star fruit's refusal.

Just looking at her appearance, star fruit also guessed that the topic she was about to talk about would definitely not be pleasant. She instinctively wanted to refuse, but seeing the expectation in her eyes, she couldn't say anything when she refused.

Flesh and blood relatives, even if they have escaped today, can they escape the Ming Dynasty?

"Auntie, sit down, if you have anything to say, just say it." Carambola got up and sat down opposite the eldest aunt, picked up the teapot and poured a bowl of water for her.

The eldest aunt sat down unceremoniously, she was a sleek person, and it didn't take long to ease her tension. Found the topic.

Her starting point was today's lunch, which explained that the family spent a lot of money and labor on the table. One of the key comments is the plate of mushrooms that star fruit eats the most.

"Your lobby brother knew that you liked to eat that, so he went up the mountain before dawn, and almost didn't fall off the hillside in order to pick up two fresh chicken fir mushrooms. If you want to say it, you have to be a close relative, and he doesn't have this heart for others. ”

When the star fruit got up in the morning, he obviously heard the eldest uncle say that he would go to pick up the fungus after killing the chicken, but this son became the credit of the lobby brother Yang Chen?

Carambola felt like a mirror, but she just smiled and said something special thanks to the lobby brother.

"There's an old saying, ' Fight tiger brothers, go into battle, father and son soldiers' do things, and you can't do it without someone you can trust. ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the star fruit's expression froze instantly. She guessed what the eldest aunt was going to say.

Sure enough, she said: "In this deep mountain and old forest, it's not like that for one of your daughters to stare at the reclamation." Your lobby brother is also idle, why don't you let him watch it for you? ”

It is a good fellow to reclaim wasteland, the wages of the hired people can be calculated, the food expenses of the farmers can be deducted, and the firewood and grass in the mountains can be sold again......

It's not that you have to be like that with your own people for the sake of money, which will affect your reputation and the subsequent process.

It's not that Carambola can't trust his cousin, but that he was fired a few days ago because he stole the wood from which the guests beat the furniture.

"Brother Lobby is a craftsman, this kind of rough work ......"

"Men, it's not a grievance to do some rough work. Chunxiao followed Master Qin to study, and recently she has to help with the affairs of the county government. Zhang Cun is a capable person, but your pickle shop is inseparable.

With such a big mountain and so many complicated things, you can't be a little girl with fine skin and tender meat, right? The left and right are to ask someone to take care of them, how can their own people be more reliable than outsiders, don't you say? ”

If an outsider is not suitable, it can be said that he can be dismissed; What about your own people? When you want to work, you can agree on anything, if something really goes wrong, will you be embarrassed by your sister and blackface with your brother? Even if you have a black face, can you deter it?

"When the land is opened, there are still a lot of things to do. Planting medicine is like planting crops, watering, fertilizing, and pulling weeds...... There are a lot of things in the middle, there is no reliable person to watch for you, and those who want to save trouble are not allowed to come nonsense?

You can be regarded as a helper, and several cousins in the family are willing to help you. Not to mention, my sons are all called by you. ”

The corners of Carambola's mouth twitched slightly: According to this meaning, Brother Guang is not good alone, and both sons are coming?

"Second Cousin ......"

"Your second cousin is an honest man, and he is also diligent in his hands and feet, if you let him help you manage a piece of land, it will definitely be relieved."

There's no oil and water on this land, so why are you worried about it?

Star fruit was wondering, and the eldest aunt said: "I heard that what you want to plant are all valuable medicinal materials, that ginseng, Linzhi, it is a lot of money to lose one, with your second brother to help plant and watch, to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

At this time, the heart and liver of star fruit began to pump.

What medicinal materials are suitable for planting in Liumian Mountain, how to plant those medicinal materials, these questions have not been figured out by the star fruit themselves, and people have even thought about the way to make a fortune.

"And your cousin, she can't, she can still do a good job of settling accounts and managing things. With her to help you watch the work at home, you can definitely rest assured whether you open a pharmacy in the county with Zhao Langzhong or go out to help the world. ”

Just give this mountain and two thousand taels of silver to your family!

Carambola was a little annoyed in her heart, but sitting opposite was an elder who lived in the same hospital, and she could only smile politely: "Let the eldest aunt bother." However, I am not in a hurry to open the mountain and plant medicine, I have not planted it, so I have to read some books first, and find a few masters who know how to grow medicinal materials. ”

The eldest aunt's excited eyes dimmed suddenly, like a defeated rooster.

She took a sip of water from the slow air bowl, and smiled embarrassedly and reluctantly for a long time: "You don't want to use your cousins, do you?" This fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and two Yang characters can not be written in one stroke! What's more, when they go, they also help you! ”

How can star fruit answer this question? Is it the relationship between blood and water, and you really want to turn your face for an errand?

"What did the aunt say? It's really not time to clean up the mountains and plant medicinal herbs. ”

"If you want to say that, then I can believe it. Your two cousins don't go out to look for work, just leave home and wait for you, you can't be short of helpers when you want to hire people. ”

Carambola wanted to say something more, but the eldest aunt had already gotten up to leave: "Let's settle this matter like this, I'll let your two cousins Zhang Luo go when I go back, and when I still find a good manpower, I'll take advantage of it when I want to use it." ”

This time, she didn't give star fruit a chance to speak at all, and strode away happily.

Carambola......

Before the eldest aunt went out, she heard a cry of pain, followed by scolding: "Which little beast beat me and died, didn't you?" I want the old lady to catch you, see how I ...... Ouch ......"

The star fruit chased out to take a look, and saw the eldest aunt with two bags the size of green walnuts on her head, and she was jumping and scolding in the direction of the courtyard wall with her hands on her waist.

The funny thing is that the other party is not afraid of her at all, and immediately after she scolds, a stone flies from outside the wall and shoots directly into her head.

The more she scolded the other party, the more she scolded, and the more the other party beat her, the more she scolded, and so on. It wasn't until the eldest uncle's sons chased them out to see that the stones that only smashed their heads didn't fly in again.

But a pair chased them out, but they didn't even find a single hair of the other party. As for why the other party beat her, no one knows.

The eldest uncle was so angry that she jumped in the yard, and the words she scolded became more and more ugly.

Both the Ye family and the Tian family went over to persuade her: "Forget it, sister-in-law, don't make yourself angry." ”

"Don't scold, you're angry enough, and you don't use it."

Carambola didn't go over to persuade her, she speculated according to the direction and angle from which the stones were flying, and then secretly walked out of the yard.

In the grove next to the house, star fruit and Yang Pan, who was holding a slingshot to shoot sparrows everywhere, met squarely.

Looking at each other, Yang Pan took the lead in rolling his eyes and pouting: "Bad seeds!" ”

Star fruit pretended to be fierce, and pulled his ears in the past: "Even the elders dare to fight, are you fat?" I'll arrest you back and see if the second aunt doesn't kill you. ”

Yang Pan was caught off guard, his ears were pinched, and when he heard that he was going to be twisted back and punished, he blushed with anger: "It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, I shouldn't have helped you." ”

He didn't care that his ears were still in the carambola's hands, and he broke free from the carambola's clamp with brute strength, and then stared at the carambola fiercely with big eyes: "I thought you were a bloody thing, but you are also a soft egg." It's boring......"

Yang Pan turned around to leave with straw sandals, but the star fruit grabbed the hem of his clothes: "Are you beating the eldest aunt for me?" ”

"Not for you, but for myself? It's so calculated that you can't even have the bones left, and you can't wipe your face and say no, you deserve it, you see that I will help you in the future. ”

Carambola knew that Yang Pan must have heard what the eldest aunt said to her: "Otherwise, what can I do?" I can drag it off for two days, and I have more time to think about how to deal with it. Besides, I didn't promise them anything, didn't I? ”

"If you had half of Second Brother Qiao's brains, things wouldn't have developed like this."

Yang Panfei gave Carambola a disdainful look, and sighed after a while: "Not only the eldest uncle, but even my mother is calculating you." Are you eating codonopsis that day? She's there to buy seeds for medicinal herbs and sell them later. Leave these two things to her, and I promise she'll kill you. ”

"I don't even know what I want to plant or what I can grow, they ......"

"What does it matter if you don't get it? The three princes even gave you the title deed and silver tickets, and said that it is up to people to make things happen. Doesn't this mean that it is your credit, and God will not support you if you lose?

If so, it becomes the two of them who can squeeze your profits clean; Defeated, they also made a lot of your two thousand taels of silver, and the remaining mountain can't be medicated, can't they still plant fruit trees and trees? Don't these things have to be taken care of, and if you have a harvest, you have to sell them? For them, it is still a cash cow and a basket of wealth. ”

Carambola was a little dumbfounded, her fifth cousin, who had never known that she would mess around, could also see the problem so thoroughly.

"So what? What's the use of you hitting her with a slingshot? ”

"Relieve your anger!"

A sparrow flew by, Yang Pan pulled out the slingshot and hit, only to hear the mournful sound of the birds, and after a while, Yang Pan trotted to pick up a sparrow back.

He dug a pit on the spot and burned the sparrows to eat, and when he looked at the fire, his eyes were shining: "Star fruit, when I become a big hero in the future, no one will dare to bully you anymore." If the Qiao family dared to lock up Qiao An, I demolished his ancestral hall. ”

"Joan? Locked up? ”

Yang Pan turned his head to look at her like an idiot: "You don't know? He burned the letter of recommendation given by the third prince, and he was so angry that Shopkeeper Qiao wanted to beat him to death, and he was not sure what the situation would be at this time. ”
