Anyway, they call him Brother Lai, and they treat him well.

Respect, trust.

Anyone who stutters thinks about him.

He also has no relatives.

Just thinking that he was a eunuch, he still felt a little inferior.

If they disliked him as a eunuch, how should he behave himself?

Back in the small courtyard in the mountains, Zhu Xiao didn't rest, and began to go to the creek to pick up pebbles, the small ones were smooth and shiny.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing picking this up?" Laihua asked.

He became the follower of the three sisters.

The hidden, deeply buried innocence was also brought out.

"I'll use it to make fried chestnuts with sugar!"

"Is it delicious?"

Zhu Xiao pursed his lips and smiled, "You'll know in a while!" ”

Together, they picked up a basket full of pebbles and washed them by the creek.

Zhu Xiao looked at the calamus that sprouted again, and his eyes were deep.

Is he okay?

It should be alive, right?

If you encounter hardship, you will grit your teeth and persevere!

With a few questions, she wasn't quite sure.

But tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, can he come back for a meal together? If she can't come back, should she make some moon cakes and give him the shoes made by the eldest sister and the third sister?

Let's give it to him, I hope that when he can't hold on and is desperate, think about it more, in this deep mountain, his three daughters are still waiting for him to come back, and forgive him for his blindness and blindness, and give him another chance, a chance to be a good father.

"Second sister......" Zhu Hua'er called softly.

Zhu Xiao came back to his senses, looked at Zhu Hua'er and smiled, "Let's go, let's go back!" ”

"Hmm!"

Back at the cabin, Zhu Xiao began to make sugar-fried chestnuts.

First cut the chestnuts with a kitchen knife, first hot flushes the pebbles in a large iron pot, and fry them over and over again until the pebbles are hot and hot, then pour the chestnuts down, stir-fry, stuffy, stir-fry, stuffy.

Until the burst of aroma permeated the air, the chestnut shells were fried and dried, and Zhu Xiao took one out and peeled it off.

Zhu Hua'er's eyes lit up on the side.

In the past, no matter how many chestnuts were picked, they never had their share when they were cooked, and they didn't have any money from selling them.

It's rare to be able to eat it today.

Zhu Xiao fed the chestnuts to Zhu Hua'er's mouth, "How is it, is it delicious?" ”

The chestnuts were a little hot, but Zhu Huaer was reluctant to spit them out.

Chewing lightly and nodding his head, "Mmmm, it's delicious, it's so sweet!" ”

Zhu Xiao took another one, peeled it and ate it himself.

It's powdery and sweet, and it's so well fed.

"Alright, it's ready to eat!"

Scooping the fried chestnuts into the basket, Zhu Xiao began to pick a big one, peeled a plate and put it on the plate, and brought it to Xun Muyang.

Xun Muyang had been waiting in the house for a long time, and was slightly surprised when he saw Zhu Xiaoduan coming in.

Haven't you been in his house for days?

"Uncle Yang!" Zhu Xiaotian shouted sweetly.

Xun Muyang looked at Zhu Xiao, it was still the old clothes from the past, he had grown taller in the past, and his sleeves were shorter.

The pants are also a little shorter.

I wore cloth shoes.

Faintly looked away and looked at the plate in Zhu Xiao's hand.

"What did you get?"

"Uncle Ayang, this is fried chestnuts, you can taste it!"

Zhu Xiao put the plate in front of Xun Muyang.

Xun Muyang looked at the golden color on the plate, but he didn't hesitate, he didn't wash his hands, and took one and put it in his mouth.

Soft and sweet.

It tastes so good.

"Is it delicious?" Zhu Xiao couldn't help but ask.

"Well, yes, let's get another plate!" Xun Muyang said, pinched another one and put it in his mouth.

“……”

Zhu Xiao hesitated for a moment before turning around and going to the kitchen.

Picked a few more and peeled a plate.

"Do you still want Childe?" Laiwan asked, throwing a chestnut into her mouth.

Close your eyes and enjoy the softness and sweetness.

It's the first time I've made chestnuts so delicious.

"Hmm!"

“……”

Zhu Xiao went to the study with fried chestnuts.

Laihua was a little surprised, when will his son-in-law eat these snacks?

But Xun Muyang not only ate, but also ate two plates.

When Zhu Xiao cooked a delicious chestnut stewed chicken at noon, he was bloated and couldn't eat it.

“……”

Zhu Xiao knew that he had eaten too much.

Laihua asked with concern, "Childe, does it taste bad?" ”

"No, let's go down!"

Xun Muyang was alone in the study, thought for a long time, and found Zhu Xiao who was reading.

Seeing the visitor, Zhu Xiao immediately put down the book and stood up straight in front of Xun Muyang.

"Uncle Yang!"

"Do you want to sell those chestnut vegetables to Lan Yi, how many will you sell to him, or a hundred taels of silver, what do you think?"

"Good!"

Zhu Xiao agreed without hesitation.

Isn't it just a dish made of chestnuts, this thing is actually very simple, basically teach it once.

If she gets another hundred taels of silver, then she has two hundred taels in her hand, and two hundred taels of silver can go to the town to rent a storefront, or rent a yard, and live a good life.

Anyway, she was very willing.

"Uncle Yang, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I plan to make some moon cakes, can you please send someone to send it to my father?!" Zhu Xiao asked tentatively.

"Good!"

Xun Muyang responded, turned to the side, and there was no extra stop, still with a cold handsome face.

As when you come, come quietly, go quietly.

Since he was going to send moon cakes and shoes to Zhu Erlang, Zhu Xiao simply called Zhu Zhaodi and Zhu Huaer, and hurriedly made a gown for Zhu Erlang.

Waiting for tomorrow's good mooncakes to be sent together.

Zhu family

This month, Zhu Dalang did not go to the town to work, but harvested rice at home.

There used to be Zhu Erlang, but now Zhu Erlang doesn't know where he goes, Zhu Dalang is tired enough, and the whole person is tanned.

Old man Zhu and Lu looked much older.

But fortunately, all the rice was collected, dried and sent to the town's yamen to pay taxes.

"When Zong Bao is admitted to Xiucai, our family will have a better life!" Old man Zhu said.

Smoking a cigarette.

Lu Shi was silent, without a second room, she had to do all the work at home, and her waist couldn't straighten up when she was tired early.

She wished she had gone to pick up the Zhao family earlier, so that she didn't have to do laundry, cooking, sweeping, feeding chickens, and pigs, she was still the same as before, just wandering around.

"Dad, that's the way it is, when are you going to bring your second brother and sister back?" Xiao Lu asked eagerly.

I really didn't feel it at home before, but now that Zhao is not here, I have to do all the work, which is really tiring.

Old Man Zhu thought about it carefully, "When Zongbao comes back, let's go!" ”

Xiao Lu touched his nose and turned back to the courtyard of the big house stupidly.

Looking at the closed courtyard door of the second room, Xiao Lu pursed his lips.

She was running out of money in her hand, so she looked forward to Zhao's coming back and asked her to borrow some.

The family has its own mind.

Zhu Zongbao arrived home in the afternoon, and when he got home, he learned that the Zhao family had not returned, and looked at his father and mother, and he couldn't say anything for a while.

He suddenly understood, what it was like to be dragged back?

I don't know who spread the news of his family, and now in the county college, there are always people talking about him behind his back, saying that his family style is not good, and many classmates are not paying attention to him.

If it weren't for his excellent reputation over the years, I'm afraid he would have been squeezed and couldn't stay.

And his father and mother have not yet realized the seriousness of this matter......
