It is said that the Shen family listened to Ziqing's persuasion and no longer struggled, besides, this time, Zeng Ruixiang was also on her side, and that day, Shen also tentatively asked Zeng Ruixiang Chunyu what he was going to do if he wanted silver to build a house?

"What about love? I've been in charge of her for so many years, do I still have to care about her until she dies? I haven't relieved my hatred for a slap last time, is there such an aunt like her? Still building a house? In the future, we don't care about the broken things in her family, will she have no hands or no feet? Don't mention her, mention her and I'll get angry. Zeng Ruixiang blurted out.

Shen listened to the secret joy, went to Zeng Ruiqing's family, and then went to Chunyu's family, this day was much more comfortable, so he wholeheartedly did some things to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival, and prepared a stone of wheat early according to the routine, and asked Zeng Ruixiang to send it to the old house. I also brought dried fruit snacks and a new summer dress as a gift for Boxing, and I personally delivered it to you. Xia Yu is still recuperating, but there is a little improvement, every day the soup medicine continues, in addition to eggs, jujube longan and other food, Shen also prepared a summer coat for adults and children, which was made by Ziqing himself, and also took a bunch of money to let Xia Yu drink more light broth.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, Shen still took Zilu to the provincial capital to prepare for the hospital exam, and Zeng Ruixiang personally sent it to the provincial capital, rented a house, and settled down before going home. Ziyu has never been far away, and has heard a lot of things about Ziqing in the provincial capital last time, this time he has to go with him, Shen thought that he would cook for the child, wash and do laundry, Ziyu was going to have a companion to talk to, so he took Ziyu away.

There are only Ziqing and grandmother He left at home during the day, the peaches in the back mountain are already red, and the watermelons in the field are estimated to take more than ten days, Ziqing thought about simply waiting for the watermelons to be ripe, and the peaches are ripe, and then send a letter to the shopkeeper Zhou.

Only five or six days passed. Ziqing is busy working in the back mountain, because the area is too large, Ziqing picks up eggs every day. He took turns fertilizing the fruit trees, and worked for an hour or two a day. At this time, He took the shopkeeper Zhou up the mountain, and it turned out that the shopkeeper Zhou estimated that the peaches of the Zeng family should be ripe. But no one came to deliver the letter, so he asked Master Tian who delivered the eggs. I learned that Shen took the child to Changzhou to catch the exam, so he came uninvited.

Seeing the peaches on the tree, Shopkeeper Zhou picked one with his hands, rubbed it on his clothes, and then bit it up, saying, "Yes, it seems to be sweeter than the old year." ”

In fact, there are only twenty or thirty peach trees here. Because it is better to take care of, and it is pruning and fertilizing, each plant can have about 50 catties of peaches. There are about fifty peach trees in the school, which are managed by Zeng Ruixiang in fertilization, and this year is the third year of fruiting, and it is said that it is much stronger than the previous two years.

Waiting for Ziqing to hold the twenty taels of silver in his hand and a little loose money, and sent away the shopkeeper Zhou, before he could close the door, he saw Grandma Tian coming over with an empty basket from afar, and Ziqing quickly entered the house to put away the silver. When he returned to the door, Tian also entered the door and asked, "Why is the gate not closed today, I seem to have seen a donkey cart coming out of you just now." What did you pull away? ”

"Oh, I'm just about to come out and close the door. Sold some peaches, Grandma, are you here? Ziqing asked.

"Can't you come over and have a look if you're fine? How much silver did peaches sell for? Is it from the Academy? By the way, your sister-in-law is about to give birth, and she is always hungry for some fresh melons and fruits, you can pick a basket for me, and another basket of eggs. Your second aunt's health is much better, and the doctor said that she needs to make up for it. ”

"Grandma, the eggs are good, when you go back, the peaches will pass by the school, let my father pick a few, but there are not many, the big ones are almost picked today, or I will send you some in a few days."

"Okay, I know, if we don't come, we don't know how to send some over sooner. Is watermelon ripe? It looks pretty big. ”

"No, how can it be so fast." Ziqing said.

In the end, Ziqing took a basket from her house and picked up a basket of eggs and three pear melons, Tian wanted to carry the basket she brought to pick peaches, Ziqing had to send it to her. Zeng Ruixiang is teaching children.

Ziqing had to move a stool by herself and find an inconspicuous corner, the peaches on the tree had basically been picked, and the rest were a few green or slippery. Ziqing stepped on the high table and picked a long time before picking a dozen peaches. One accidentally fell off the stool, Ziqing sat on the ground and said: "Grandma, I really can't pick it out, if not, just wait another three or four days to see if it can be cooked, and I don't plan to sell the rest of the horizontal and vertical food, I keep it for my own food, and when the time comes, let my father send it to you." ”

Tian saw that this was indeed the case, it was difficult to say anything, and he didn't ask Ziqing how he fell, and went home.

Here Ziqing got up and patted the dirt on her buttocks, muttering to herself, "There is enough sadness, I know, every time I come, it will be no good thing, it's not that I want that, I don't even want an egg for my second aunt, I'm annoyed." My poor ass, it hurts me to death. ”

Suddenly, Ziqing heard a burst of laughter, and after looking for a long time, she found that there was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy sitting on the tree, shaking his legs, biting peaches and eating them. Ziqing didn't pay attention to him, let alone look up at him, and ran home in a panic.

In the following days, Ziqing stayed at home, Qiuyu gave birth to a son, and Ziqing went with her father on two trips, one to give birth to the stomach and one to give a milk ceremony.

The busy time passed in a flash, the summer harvest was about to begin, Zeng Ruixiang's school was on vacation, and the next day Shou also went home from the county school, and later, Zifu also entered the house, not two days, Shen took Zilu and Ziyu into the door, Ziqing looked at a lot of things that Shen had bought, grabbed Zifu and said: "Big brother, I just said, my mother can buy it better than me, you still don't believe it, look, there are at least thirty horses of this fabric, I don't know, I thought our family was going to open a cloth shop." ”

Shen Shi listened, stretched out his hand and pretended to pat Ziqing, and said: "The fabric you bought that year is now used in seventy-seven, eighty-eight, when you are growing, don't make a few new clothes in which year, this is still not a big one to wear, and the small one will continue to wear." Besides, this cloth is really cheap, people like us, it's good to have new clothes, how can there be those exquisite. I think it's all the same, it's suitable. ”

Ziqing raised her hand to block Shen's hand, revealing the dragon and phoenix bracelet on her wrist, Zifu grabbed Ziqing's hand and asked, "Where did Qing'er get the gold bracelet?" What's going on? ”

Ziqing's skin was very tender, Zifu exerted too much force in the fright, and soon there was a circle of purple-red marks, "Big brother, let go, it hurts, big brother, I'm married." ”

"What? You're married, why don't I know? Who is decided? Zifu put down Ziqing's hand and asked in surprise, and then looked at Shen and Zeng Ruixiang.

"Say, who is it decided? What's going on? Why didn't I go home for half a year, and my sister suddenly got married? Zifu saw that no one squeaked and immediately asked.

"It's that Lin Kangping, you also know him." Ziqing said.

"How could it be him? Isn't he a subordinate? Dad, mother, what's going on? Why did Qing'er give it to him? What are you in a hurry about? I've been planning to find a good one for my sister, but I think my sister is still young and needs to be observed for another year or two. What's going on? ”

"Fu'er, you can follow me into the study." Zeng Ruixiang said.

It took almost half an hour for the two of them to come out, Ziqing found that Zifu's eyes were a little red, Zifu rubbed Ziqing's double bun, and after a long time, he said: "I have wronged you, Qing'er." ”

Ziqing's heart hurt suddenly, she lowered her head and took a deep breath, raised her head and smiled: "Look at what the eldest brother said, don't be wronged, I agreed to it myself, besides, Kangping treats me very well, I think this is the best choice, big brother, don't worry." ”

"Yes, big brother, Kang Ping, this kid promised to settle down around here, if he dares to treat Qing'er badly, so many of our brothers can't clean him up." Zilu said.

"You know what? I'm sorry for my sister, such a good girl, but it's cheaper for that kid. There are many big ladies in Anzhou City who are not as good as Qing'er, don't they just have a good background? Zifu sighed.

Ziqing was afraid that these words would hurt Zeng Ruixiang and Shen's hearts, so she hurriedly said: "Big brother, you have been reading books for so many years, Zifei is not a fish, you know the joy of fish, you should always know this." I think Kangping is quite suitable for me, I have known him since I was a child, there is no blind marriage and dumb marriage, not to mention that he is single-minded to me, and he is willing to promise me not to marry a young man in the future, this is rare, I think this is enough, no fame can not enter the officialdom, what is the matter? ”

"You're still too young, forget it, it's all settled, don't talk about it." Zifu sighed.

The family is reunited again, Ziqing is happy all day long, either pestering Zifu to teach her to paint, or pestering Zilu to catch chickens and loaches, Zishou is busy practicing carving, Zixi is playing crazy behind Ziqing, the days pass quickly, more than half a month has passed, and I haven't seen the official send to deliver the letter, Zilu's heart is gradually worried and irritable, Zeng Ruixiang and Zifu both guessed that Zilu is probably the first, comforted him and said, there are so many people who fall every year, this year is not over, next year will be the exam, not to mention that his enlightenment is later, It is important not to lose faith in yourself.

Ziqing also persuaded him when no one was around: "Second brother, there are thousands of students every year, just like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge, and there are only a few who can pass after all." In that case, why bother squeezing the single-plank bridge? There is more than one way to success, as long as you find out what you want, and then work towards this goal, whether you succeed or not, at least you will not regret it in the future. ”

Although everyone blindly persuaded him, but Zilu's mood has not been slowed down, Shen said: "This child has always been thoughtful, the more he comforts him, the more he goes to his heart, if everyone throws it away, don't mention this stubble, Zifu still takes him to fish as usual, touch the loaches, catch field chickens at night, and it will be better in a few days." ”

Zifu listened to it and agreed, but Zilu didn't want to go out, he always felt that everyone would look at him with strange eyes, Zifu and Zishou and Zixi didn't care about 3721, they dragged him away, so awkward After five or six days, Zilu's expression gradually became normal, and everyone put their minds at ease.

A few days later, a good thing came. (To be continued)
