The county government of Cheng'an County has not been repaired for many years, according to Zhu Wenqing's original plan, after the transfer letter came down, before leaving, allocated silver to repair it, which is considered to give the successor a big face, but after the wheat disaster in Cheng'an County was damaged, the silver was allocated to buy relief food for the people who could not make a living, and Zhu Wenqing's transfer was also no news, and now the Cheng'an County Government is still broken by the wall, and the ashes are fluttering on the façade, and there are four tall catalpa trees at the entrance of the county government, because in the beginning of autumn, There are naughty children crawling on it and frolicking and pulling the leaves.

"Uhhh Lord Bo Wang, the lord of Cheng'an County, carried the newly bought potted sycamore to the door, stomped his feet and drank, scaring away the children on the tree.

"Where's your lord?" The Lord shook his clothes, lifted his hat and asked, "But you went outside the city?" ”

The officials nodded and said with a smile: "The eldest lady will come back in time for the beginning of autumn, and we will definitely have a bumper harvest next year." ”

The lord Bo showed a smile on his face and instructed the officials not to shake off the sycamore leaves carefully, and hurriedly went out of the yamen, and just went out to see a man in a white pious cloth shirt holding a bag of headscarf The woman slowly came over, and at a glance it was the Hun family and son-in-law of Cao Dashan in Shifang Village, and saw him hurriedly walking a few steps forward.

"His cousin!" When the woman saw him, she did not say a word, and began to mourn and weep, and patted her legs with her thick fingers. The master bookkeeper sighed, looked around, and saw the occasional children running by on the street, so he pulled them to stand in a corner, and whispered: "You come to the county to cry every other day, which can only make the adults more annoyed." ”

Cao Dashan's family covered their mouths and didn't dare to cry loudly, and said: "Although he is useless, the family is also counting on it, and if we don't release it now, we won't be able to live." As he spoke, he sat down next to the wall, and the son-in-law hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, and said in his mouth: "Uncle Cousin, we admit our mistakes and the money is fined, why hasn't my father released it?" ”

The main bookkeeper looked at the sky and was anxious, and was impatient with the woman's crying, so he got busy and whispered: "And listen to me, now you still need to tie the bell to the bell, let me tell you, don't come here, go home, go to the eldest lady's house to cry." ”

Hearing this, Cao Dashan's family cried even more, touched his tears and snot, and said: "Go, it's just a mess in vain, his cousin ......"

The chief bookkeeper raised his voice and said, "Listen to me, if you go again today, go to the big lady and cry, she will not be jealous of you, but it is better to say a word than for you to come here every day." ”

Hearing this, the woman of Cao Dashan's family looked up in amazement and said, "What's the matter?" Is the eldest sister coming back? Then he suddenly said: "It's strange that Cao Sanlang's family will come to so many people after a while." He said with a bitter face: "That eldest sister is not a good talker!" The chief bookkeeper was anxious to go to the city gate, but the woman was impatient, and waved his hand, saying, "You only go as I say." After saying that, he hurriedly left, and the woman of Cao Dashan's family wiped her tears and helped her son-in-law to go half happy and half sad.

At this time, Lindsay Yu, who was wrapped in dust, was riding a small donkey cart, walking on the rugged path, and the noon sun hung fiercely in the sky, making the wild trees on both sides tighten their leaves.

"July and autumn are all harvested, and June and autumn are all lost," Lin Saiyu said with a smile holding some pu fans to shade the sun, "The coming year will be a good year." ”

When the old man who was driving the car heard it, he turned around and smiled: "If the eldest lady says this, I will be relieved." ”

Lin Saiyu smiled, looked at the new car driver hired by the county magistrate of Huangxian County and said: "That's not necessarily, people often say that thunder strikes autumn, and winter is half ......harvested."

Without saying anything, the old man spat and said, "Big lady, there is no way for us to live, we have only harvested less than half of the wheat this year, and now we are pointing to the rice and beans in the field." He said with a face full of sorrow.

Lin Saiyu hurriedly stopped laughing, looked up at the sky, saw that the sun was like fire, sighed, and muttered: "The difficulty of farming is to look at the sky." Listening to the old man continue: "Poor ...... with little rain this summer" couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Xuzhou is very watery......"

Since leaving Kaifeng Mansion, Lin Saiyu has walked many counties along the road, because she wants to plant orchards, she will pay attention to see what fruit trees can be planted now, this look surprised her very much, the scope of fruit tree planting is much more than she expected, this way, she set 50 jujube trees in Neihuang, 40 chestnuts in Linzhang, and found a garden near Cheng'an, and took a fancy to walnuts and other seedlings, so the original four-day journey, she walked for ten days to see the gray city wall of Cheng'an County.

"Big lady, someone is going to follow again." The old man who was driving the car said, while looking at it, he summoned Lin Saiyu from the thoughts of how to arrange the orchard, and also raised his eyes, and saw Zhu Wenqing standing in an official robe, so he smiled helplessly.

It's also strange to say, since she left Kaifeng Mansion, no matter where she went, there were always local officials and squires who followed, it stands to reason that she would turn wherever she went, how could these people have the art of unpredictable prophets, so that she didn't dare to stay anywhere for a long time, but there was a feeling of running away in a hurry, while thinking, seeing that the car was approaching, he jumped out of the car in full clothes, and Zhu Wenqing greeted everyone with a smile.

"We still think that the eldest lady has been robbed again, and if we don't come, we will go to the counties to find it." Zhu Wenqing said with a smile, seeing that the woman's dress was more simple than when she left, she used to wear a hairpin, but now she only uses a green hand towel to wrap her sideburns, and it is difficult for those county officials to recognize her.

Lin Saiyu hurriedly saluted everyone and said with a smile: "It's disturbing everyone, the little woman doesn't dare to be." ”

Those squires squeezed up with a look of grievance, and said one after another: "The eldest lady is back." "The eldest lady is not allowed to go again." One of them also cried, so frightened that Lindsay Yu was at a loss, and when he asked, he realized that this person was the most seriously damaged by the wheat disaster this year, almost no grains, and his heart was suddenly full of guilt, as if he had destroyed other people's land. Zhu Wenqing knew this woman's temperament best, and he glared at the man fiercely, and said, "What are you crying about now!" I let you treat the eldest lady well, and let the eldest lady be bullied and leave home, but who is to blame! No fun! ”

Busy with eyes pulled the man away, since Lin Saiyu left, these squires have also been scolded by the county magistrate, except for Cao Dashan, the rest of the anger will be sprinkled on them, and when they see each other, they will be counted, only saying that they have neglected the eldest lady, and scolded these people to hide at home, and they each donated food to get better.

Embraced Lindsay Yu into the city, attracting many onlookers, most people now know that they have a saturnist lady here, but they have not seen much, for a time a spread of ten or ten hundred, the alley that is not wide is crowded, this scene made Lindsay Yu break out in a cold sweat, and the onlookers who listened asked: "Big lady, what to plant next year?" "Big lady, can it rain tomorrow?" is even more embarrassed, hurriedly said goodbye to Zhu Wenqing, Zhu Wenqing has not yet spoken, where dare the squires behind him slack, and hurriedly said that they have prepared a banquet for the eldest lady.

"The eldest lady is also tired, and it will not be too late to wash the dust in the future." Zhu Wenqing saw that the woman was panicked, so he hurriedly relieved the siege, and called the officials to open the way to Shifang Village.

After leaving these people, Lin Saiyu breathed a sigh of relief in the car, touched his soaked clothes, and said to himself: "This sin is really unbearable!" The old man who drove the car only laughed and said, "The eldest lady has even seen the mother, and she is still afraid to see us?" ”

Lin Saiyu wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, shook his fan and said: "I am a countryman, I just mix in the field, I can't get on the stage, and I can't stand the crime!" As they spoke, they followed the bumpy car along the almost roadless mountain road, and after crossing a few slopes, they saw the village of Shifang located in the gentle part of the hills.

"The eldest sister is back!" Before entering the village, he heard a child's shout, which caused Lin Saiyu to hurry to look, and saw a person slipping from the big catalpa tree at the entrance of the village, and at the same time, the children around the tree dispersed and ran to the village, shouting "Sister Golden Egg is back!" ”

Lin Saiyu saw the golden egg waving a big branch and running towards him, hurriedly jumped out of the car to pick it up, picked up the golden egg, and said with a smile: "Oh, I'm fat again, I can't hold it!" While squatting down and taking a closer look, the six-year-old golden egg had reached Lindsayyu's waist, running in the field all day long, his whole body was covered with black jinjin, showing a mouthful of white teeth and grinning, wearing a very mismatched panhua woven gold robe, one corner hung down, the other corner was tucked into the waist, stained with mud, and also hung with silk, and then saw that he had two gold rings around his neck, and a nondescript gold crown on his head, he couldn't help laughing, and pointed: "Why are you dressed like this?" ”

Jin Dan wiped his nose with the torn sleeve and said, "My mother made it, and said that the young masters all wear this." ”

Lin Saiyu smiled straight stomach pain, the golden egg was suddenly ashamed, dragging her to eat, was making a fuss to see the whole village people pouring out, the woman who walked in front was wearing a red gold cardigan all over the place, Cui Gai dragged mud makeup Luo skirt, the figure was fat, and the gold hairpin and silver hairpin were inserted, which made people unable to open their eyes in the sun, Lin Saiyu couldn't help laughing, and when she got closer, she saw Lu's face rubbed with thick powder and blush, and couldn't help it anymore, and shouted: "My mother, which play are you playing?" He clutched his stomach and laughed.

When she laughed, the villagers who had been holding back suddenly laughed, and for a while, the laughter at the entrance of Shifang Village shook the sky, startling the magpie and crow on the big tree.

"Anyway, I have been the wife of an official family for a few days, and I am like those uninformed villagers, what are you laughing at!" After eating a lively banquet, sending away visiting relatives and friends, thanking the visiting neighbors, the former Liu family's small courtyard, and now the Cao family's mansion Hung four yarn lamps, attracting a number of moths, Lu rolled up his sleeves, squatted in front of the well platform with Lin Saiyu to wash the dishes, and said in a row: "This is the fabric that the county chief bookkeeper personally picked for me, and it is the most up-to-date appearance in the capital." Saying that, the wet sleeve pointed to some of the flower powder on his face, "Well, it didn't cost anything, it was given by the bookkeeper's wife." said that her maternal uncle sent it from the south. ”

Lin Saiyu put the dishes and chopsticks in the basket, and said with a smile: "My mother has also intersected with the ladies in the city now?" While pointing to the sleeve of her shirt that was pulled up to her shoulder, "This dress is not for living, and it can't be worn with pleats over the water." ”

Lu Shi didn't care, picked up a basket of dishes and chopsticks, walked to the kitchen, and said, "I wear clothes, and I don't wear clothes!" Lin Saiyu smiled and didn't speak, listening to the sound of brushing and brushing in the front yard, knowing that it was Cao Sanlang cleaning, so he picked up the side and swept away to pass, Lu saw it in the stove, and hurriedly shouted: "You don't care, go to bed early." "I don't have to get up early tomorrow, I'm resting so early." Lin Saiyu said and walked out, but was chased by Lu Shi behind him, and said, "Look at your face, go to bed early to recuperate." While looking at her clothes, he frowned and said, "Fortunately, I thought carefully and made you two new clothes, so you won't see someone tomorrow!" ”

"Who do you see, worthy of wearing gold and silver?" Lin Saiyu covered her mouth and smiled, "Mother, now I really become the wife of a landlord." ”

Lu Shi slapped her head before saying: "It's good for you to come back, I was about to tell you, we won't marry far away, I don't have to be wronged and my mother's family can't help, now the people in the city are picking with us, I am optimistic about a family for you, not far away, it is the rich man of Zhou in the east of the city, a lone seedling, only seventeen years old this year, I have already told people that I will come to meet tomorrow, and I will be able to pass the door before the time is ready, and I will not delay the string of relatives." ”

Lin Saiyu lowered his face and frowned: "Mother, my family, don't interfere at all." ”

Lu Shi's eyes widened, and he said in a loud voice, "What did you say?" Why, I don't meddle? Pick it yourself? Don't look at what you're looking for? The blind eye blinds the heart, and the white attracts the burial! As soon as the words fell, I heard a burst of thunder, which frightened both the mother and daughter.

"This is the beginning of autumn, what kind of thunder is it!" Lu Shi muttered, seeing the dark clouds rolling in the sky, he put aside the quarrel for the time being, and hurriedly ran to help Cao Sanlang clean up the tables, chairs and benches in the yard.

Lin Saiyu's ears were buzzed by this thunder, and she raised her head and muttered: "It's just a common saying, it's not really ......" Before the words fell, a gust of wind rose sharply, blowing so that she couldn't open her eyes.
