Saying that the letter was held by her mother-in-law, Lin Saiyu was in a hurry, and complained about how the shopkeeper Qiao sent a stunned person, so she shouted in a loud voice, and now she has nothing to do, and only the scene of the underground party that she watched on TV before was discovered by the enemy and swallowed the secret letter in one bite, but even if she ate the letter immediately, it would not help, it could only make Liu more suspicious.

sighed, had to let go of his hand, and said slowly: "Mother, you, don't be angry when you see it." ”

Liu Shi was already so angry that his face turned blue, and he was even more shocked and scared in his heart, why didn't Erlang write a letter to himself? Why did Jiro write a letter to hide it from him? Of course, she wouldn't think that her son had married a daughter-in-law and forgot his mother, but naturally thought, Erlang, shouldn't Erlang be bad?

Holding the letter in one hand, trembling and tearing it open, it was already panting and taking a few steps back, fortunately Ying'er was clever and took a chair over early, so she sat down, while looking down at the letter, Lindsay Yu was not in the mood to send the little guy who sent the letter, and Zhao Ying'er came over and asked her to send it out, while whispering to invite the local doctor in the village to come, Ying'er immediately ran away.

Liu Xiaohu said in the letter that it was naturally what happened in this paragraph, expressing his excitement about saving rice, and at the end of the day, he still had the concern for Lin Saiyu, and he set off to go home, and said that he would write a letter to Liu in a few days, lying that he was sick, and he would definitely go home for the New Year with their members, etc., Liu Shi, who only saw it, was trembling, even if she was a woman who had never been out, she also knew that the capital did not let the people who rushed to take the exam to treat rice, and she understood what the last words meant.

"Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, you 。。。。。" After reading the letter, Liu stood up, pointed at Lin Saiyu without saying a word, and fell into Lin Saiyu's arms.

At this time, Ying'er, who was running out of breath, took the village doctor into the door, and the three of them carried Liu into the house in a panic and laid it flat on the bed.

"That's it!" Doctor Tu wiped his sweat, took out some herbs from the medicine box he carried, and handed them to Ying'er to decoction, and Lindsay Yu thanked him and took his leave.

Only their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were left in the room, silent for a while, Liu was lying facing up, his eyes were glazed, but tears flowed for a long time, and he didn't say a word.

She is proud of her son, she prays in front of the gods every night, she secretly laughs at her daughter-in-law from time to time that she has an official who is still tired of farming, she secretly hides the family's money and does not give her daughter-in-law an emergency, just to keep it and wait for her son to return to the scenery as a reward, her Liu family is ruined, but she can't lose her son's face, no wonder her daughter-in-law always shows such a strange look when she hears this, no wonder the villagers should steal vegetables and steal vegetables, bad greenhouses, and the Lu family, who hates the poor and loves the rich, has never given her the slightest awe, It turned out that she was the only one who was confused and rejoicing, and everyone else was watching her singing, thinking about it, she remembered her biological son, her eldest husband, what an obedient child her eldest man was, and she didn't let her feel sad at all times, maybe only her own child would care so much about her mother's heart, so she was reluctant to let her mother hurt her heart.

"Dalang." Thinking about it, Liu muttered, tears raging on his face.

Lin Saiyu knelt down when Liu opened his eyes, she could imagine Liu's mood, thinking about it and crying, she was sorry Erlang, this little thing was not good, she let Liu learn the truth in such a sudden situation, there was no psychological preparation at all, there was no hope at all, so cruelly put the truth in front of her, the cruel truth is not that her son did not pass the exam, but that her son deceived her.

Especially when she heard Liu's call out the name Dalang, Lindsayyu's heart was torn apart, she knew that Liu Xiaohu was born to a concubine, after the family was broken that day, the concubine was shocked and afraid of dying, it was Liu who took him young and wandered, and he was fortunate to raise him as his own, but now he subconsciously shouted out the name of his own son, which is enough to show that she has a grudge against this son, how can she Lindsay Yu make up for it?

"Mother, it's the daughter-in-law who is wrong, regardless of Erlang's affairs, Erlang didn't pass the exam, and the daughter-in-law was afraid that her mother would be sad, so she persuaded Erlang to lie to her mother, not Erlang's idea, Erlang He didn't want to, he was really afraid that his mother would be angry." Lin Saiyu couldn't help it, knelt down and stepped forward to grab Liu's hand and cry loudly.

Since ancient times, the knot is difficult to solve, whether it is between monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, husbands and wives, Kundi, it is inevitable, how to spare Liu Xiaohu Lin Saiyu and his wife for the sake of Liu, Liu only relied on Liu Xiaohu to deceive her, cold heart, suspicion, thinking that he is not his biological mother after all, in the end it is a layer apart, this bloodline thing in the poor days do not feel how, now the family is rich and has a few acres of land, no worries about livelihood, it is idle, day by day Liu's heart is gradually growing, although it was said at the time, the heart is always unhappy, This is not to be mentioned later.

Lin Saiyu kowtowed and cried again and again, Liu was silent for a moment and let her get up, just said, since you all know, let Erlang come back quickly, you don't have to suffer outside, you get up after lying down for a day, as if this has never happened, Lin Saiyu became more and more anxious in her eyes, she naturally guessed that Liu had a mustard for Liu Xiaohu, and she was so anxious that she scratched her ears and cheeks and couldn't, while writing a letter to tell Liu Xiaohu that she knew, urging him to go home quickly, while sleeping unsteadily every night.

This night woke up in the middle of the night and was troubled, rushed to the doctor to think of a way, since the crossing, Lindsay Yu believed in the ghosts and gods very much, so he got up and came to the courtyard, set up a table and took incense and candles, prayed under the moon, and said a lot of long-winded, because Liu Xiaohu did not get famous, ashamed of the ancestors of the Liu family, shameless to face Liu's mother-in-law, nothing to say but to promise to fast for three days a month, burn incense every night, I wish Liu's health is healthy, don't worry about their husband and wife, pray for the mother-in-law to untie the knot as soon as possible, mother and son are as harmonious as ever, etc., With this psychological sustenance, my heart gradually became calmer, and I was able to fall asleep at night.

The days passed slowly under the cold heart and worry of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and in the blink of an eye, the rice in the paddy field of the Liu family was full of golden eyes to the time of maturity, Lin Saiyu beckoned the tenants to harvest, and the total amount of harvest was eighty-six stones, this news not only made the tenants dumbfounded in surprise, but even Lord Zhu had to come to see it in person.

You must know that the yield of rice is only one mu and two stones, and the good one is only four stones, and the yield per mu of the Liu family's first planting has increased so much, hearing the news, Lord Zhu absolutely can't believe it, although he knows that Liu Xiaohu is famous in Wuyue, and it is not surprising that the Liu family can grow rice well with that skill, but it will definitely not increase the yield so much?

Lord Zhu beckoned all the officials to rush to Liu's house in Shifang Village, and when he got there, he found that the officials from the neighboring eight counties had come, all staring at the high grain stacks of Liu's house, Lord Zhu was startled, and he didn't care to carefully check the yield, and found Lin Saiyu, who was busy harvesting, once again reiterated that before the promotion in Cheng'an County, it was not allowed to sell rice seedlings to other families, otherwise he would have to find a crime, and Lin Saiyu was funny and angry and assured again.

"Big lady, what are you going to plant here? Why don't you plant lotus roots? Lord Zhu's eyes were on the paper in Lin Saiyu's hand, Lin Saiyu was shocked, what he wrote was modern characters, this old gentleman wouldn't look suspicious, and sure enough, a strange smile appeared on Lord Zhu's face, which frightened her and hurriedly put it away. In fact, Lin Saiyu is completely wrong, traditional Chinese characters are actually the standard words used in the imperial examination of the Qing Dynasty, before this writing is free, which is the reason why there are many variant characters, especially the literati also love to write simple words, such as "dust" is the Song Dynasty appeared, more interesting is the word "hit", the pronunciation of this word was originally called ding, the original meaning is to throw hit, the early Song Dynasty used as a simplified word for "tart", but soon there was a new life into a universal verb, and Ouyang Xiu, who could do anything, was very dissatisfied........ The reason why Lord Zhu laughed was because Lin Saiyu's font was like a fly crawling in front of the ancients, but thinking that she was a village girl, it would be good for Liu Xiaohu to teach her to this extent. Lin Saiyu smiled a little embarrassedly, put up the list he wrote casually, and said: "The lotus root can only be planted in the spring of next year, and the land cannot be wasted. ”

Lord Zhu listened to the praise again and again, and instructed again not to give rice seeds to other counties and hurriedly left, he wanted to hurry back to write a memo to the imperial court, not to mention Liu Xiaohu's contribution to the treatment of the disease, Lin Saiyu alone to increase the yield of rice is enough to make the court pay attention, of course, Lord Zhu's greater purpose is to be able to ask for the court's reward for the Liu family, of course, this has his selfishness, so that he has more confidence in making requests to the Liu family, what Lord Zhu doesn't know is that before he sent the fold, The land of Wu Yue was so full of twists and turns that he asked for Liu Xiaohu's reward that they flew snowflakes to the capital, so that they almost drowned his twists and turns, and made the emperor miss the more interesting matter of increasing rice.
