Chapter 575, Hopeless (1 more.)
Zheng Huaiyuan was so cautious, Zhu Xiao did the shopkeeper, and the sister-in-law at home didn't do anything, just walked slowly in the house, thinking about things.
Fang Zhi and Fang Mu are diligent people, cleaning and tidying up inside and out, and Lan's mother is not in good health, so she is responsible for boiling water.
Old man Meng was not in good health, so he sat on a chair with a warm stove in his arms, looking at the sky in a daze.
The house is not messy, just clean up casually, and the main thing is to go grocery shopping.
Early in the morning, Fang Zhi's mother and daughter made an appointment to go shopping for vegetables, and when they saw fish, they bought a few more, bought them back and raised them in a bucket.
"What kind of fish is this?" Zhu Xiao asked.
"Crucian carp, cook the lady and drink a bowl of fish soup, raise adults and children!"
"That's good, if you meet it next time, buy a few more and come back, boil a pot for everyone to eat, fry two poached eggs and stew them together, the fish soup will definitely be more delicious!"
Fang's mother paused, "Put poached eggs in this fish soup?" ”
"Well, Aunt Fang can try!"
Fang's mother nodded, "Then I'll put it in a clay pot and cook it in a while, simmer slowly, the old man is not in good health, it's good to drink some fish soup to make up for it!" ”
Zhu Xiao's head.
Fang's mother is a very caring person, and she is in charge of the food at home, and Zhu Xiao is very relieved.
If a pregnant woman can't eat it, Fang's mother won't buy it, and she won't let Zhu snack it.
"Madame, how many dishes are we going to prepare for the evening?"
"It doesn't take too much, you just make a few specialty dishes!"
"The first time the general came to our house, he couldn't be too cold, I made six dishes and one soup, do you think Madame should add one or two?"
"There's no need to add more, just stop like this, he hasn't eaten anything good as a general, we're just a mind!"
Since Zhu Xiao said so, Fang's mother also went to the kitchen to prepare.
Someone came to the door and wanted to buy firewood.
These people are all people who have some money and a little face in Wucheng, saying that they are buying firewood, but in fact, they also heard the rumors, and learned that Zhu Xiao entered the eyes of the general and wanted to be close, but Zhu Xiao was a woman, and she was pregnant, so she basically didn't go out, and they didn't have a chance to see it, so they thought of such a way, came to Zhu Xiao to buy firewood, and came a few more times, which made it familiar, and let the women in the family go a few times, and the relationship would be close, and there might be great benefits in the future.
Zhu Xiaoyi saw them one by one, these people bought firewood, they all bought it from two taels of silver, and five of them came at once, and they gave the silver first, and did not urge Zhu Xiao to give firewood when to do it, let Zhu Xiao take his time, not in a hurry, Zhu Xiao took ten taels of silver and asked Fang Zhi to send people out.
Only then did he laugh out loud.
Because Zheng Huaiyuan, a general, has brought her a lot of benefits.
With these ten taels of silver, Zhu Xiao thought about adding some meat to those children, and when it was time for the New Year, he would also let them have a decent Chinese New Year's Eve meal.
"Madam, how much firewood does this sell?" Fang Zhi asked.
Ten taels of silver.
It looks a lot better when you think about it.
"I must give a lot, Lan Kai told me, there is a lot of firewood cut down over there, and the larger ones are tied up, and when the time comes, they will be sent to the county seat, no matter what, but they have found a way for these children to live!"
"Madam, have you ever thought about taking more business for chopping firewood?"
Zhu Xiao shook his head, "This can't, if I go to pick it up, I can negotiate the deal, but what can those who rely on this to live?" Always give people a way to live! ”
When she came to the door, she took the deal and bought food for the children, so that they could eat better.
Fang Zhi thought for a moment, "What Madame said makes sense!" ”
It's not unreasonable.
She just wants to accumulate blessings for the child in her womb, otherwise she is also a ruthless person.
Fang Zhi felt that Zhu Xiao was a kind person, even if she was selfish, but at least she took action, giving those children a way to live, eating once a few days earlier, now she can eat at least three meals a day, her stomach can be filled, and there is a place to sleep, and even hot water bathing, and when she is sick, someone will see a doctor, and those who have lice will also use medicine to remove the lice, and even shave their hair, and someone will take care of them when they eat, drink, and Lazar.
Zhu Xiao's requirements are that the place where he lives should be clean, the food should be clean, and the mothers-in-law who cook are also hardworking and hard-working, and they have a good heart, so they were selected several times before they were sent.
Therefore, the children are very serious in their work, almost no one is lazy, and a few are afraid of being abandoned, even if they are sick, they still want to pick herbs and chop wood.
General's Palace
Zheng Huaiyuan has changed several clothes, and he always feels that he is not handsome enough, and the man in his memory is not only handsome, but the most important thing is that kind of kingly spirit, which makes people have to surrender.
The last clothes he wore were still the ones he had chosen at the beginning, and Zheng Huaiyuan stood by the window and waited.
"General, why don't you sit?"
"Why sit? Sitting down crumpled your clothes, understand? ”
"......" the youngster was dumbfounded.
When Zheng Huaiyuan didn't pay attention, he ran out and told Zheng Huaiyuan about it to others, and a group of young generals who followed Zheng Huaiyuan from birth to death listened to it with relish, and secretly thought to themselves, their general was afraid that he was interested in that little woman.
Waiting until the afternoon, Zheng Huaiyuan couldn't wait any longer, rode out of the General's Mansion, and went directly to Zhu Xiao's house.
When he arrived, Zhu Xiao was still taking a nap.
"It's okay, I'll just wait!"
Fang Zhi looked at Zheng Huaiyuan, and his heart was worried.
This general is really tall, and he looks fierce, but he doesn't look like a good person.
Fang Zhi had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
But it was Old Man Meng who came over and chatted with Zheng Huaiyuan.
After a while, Zheng Huaiyuan realized that this old man was a little interesting, and everything he said was reasonable, not the kind of nonsense when he opened his mouth.
Old man Meng originally came out with Zheng Huaiyuan, so as not to embarrass him sitting in the living room alone, but he chatted with Zheng Huaiyuan for a while, but he was interested, plus Zheng Huaiyuan also fought a lot of battles, plus he intended to please Old Man Meng, thinking that he could use an excuse to come to Old Man Meng in the future, flattering Old Man Meng, the two of them chatted and chatted, but there was an illusion of meeting and hating each other.
Old Man Meng had a headache for Zhu Xiao, but Zhu Xiao was a little woman in the end, and she was afraid of scaring her when she said those things about fighting and killing, so it was rare to talk to Zheng Huaiyuan today, and her mood gradually improved.
Zhu Xiao stood outside the living room and couldn't help but purse his lips and smile.
Walked into the living room, "General, grandpa!" ”
Zheng Huaiyuan hurriedly stood up and stammered, "Madam!" ”
"General, please take a seat!"
Zhu Xiao motioned for Zheng Huaiyuan to sit before telling him about wanting to open a shop.
Zheng Huaiyuan understood, and looked at Zhu Xiaohao for a while, "But Madame is also heavy this month, and these things can be delayed for a few days!" ”
"I want to too, but with so many people in the family waiting to eat, the child in my belly ......" Zhu Xiao paused slightly before continuing, "Doctor Nangong said that I'm afraid it's not good, I always want to make more money!" ”
“……”
Zheng Huaiyuan pursed his lips when he heard this.
"Since the lady wants to do the grain business, I will give Lan Kai a token that can enter and exit at will, but there is one point, there are a few people who follow him out, and there must be a few people when he comes back, if there is one less, it will never work!"
"Thank you, General!" Zhu Xiao got up and blessed Zheng Huaiyuan.
I actually want to ask Zheng Huaiyuan, do you know who she is? Where did it come from? Who are the people in the family?
But for fear of self-defeating, I can only ask nothing in the end.
Zheng Huaiyuan can drink, but Old Man Meng is unwell and has already quit drinking, so Zhu Xiao asked Lan Kai to come and accompany him.
Zheng Huaiyuan was also a little annoyed when he thought of this Lan Kai, who guarded the yard every night, so he fought with him for wine.
Lan Kai's face was calm, and he drank with Zheng Huaiyuan one by one.
"Whew!"
Zheng Huaiyuan exhaled.
He felt as if he was drunk, and when he looked at Zhu Xiao again, she was still sitting dignified, out of reach.
“……”
Looking at Zhu Xiao, Zheng Huaiyuan raised his hand to cover his face.
He is now extremely broken in his heart, hoping that Zhu Xiaoshi will be abandoned, but he is reluctant to let her be disliked for such a good time.
"Madame!" Zheng Huaiyuan shouted.
How much love is hidden in this lady.
"General, you're drunk!" Zhu Xiao whispered.
"Yes, I'm drunk, I've been drunk for so many years, and I always thought I would be sober, but when I saw my wife, I realized that I had always been drunk and never sober!" After Zheng Huaiyuan finished speaking, he slowly stood up.
He saluted Zhu Xiao with a fist, "Madam, it's getting late, I'll go back first, and Madame will rest early!" ”
Then head outside.
Zhu Xiao got up and chased after him for a few steps, but when he saw that he couldn't catch up with him at all, he shouted, "General!" ”
“……”
Zheng Huaiyuan stood still and didn't dare to look back.
