Tiehuai's family nagged again: "The water of this hot spring flows out of Qingliang Temple, bypasses Qingliang Mountain, and flows down along the Qingliang River, and one and a half miles below is the old gentleman's house, the old gentleman is highly respected, and built a school for free, not restrained and repaired, and teaches the children of the poor to read and write. The old lady of his family is a kind-hearted person, and she often gives alms to the old nuns in this Qingliang Temple. Speaking of which, the wife's place to marry Zhuangzi, surrounded by mountains and rivers, is really a treasure......"

"Mr. Zhu? Mr. Zhu Mengcao? Lin Jinrong's eyes lit up again, isn't that a very famous Confucian in Pingzhou?

How can you think of neighbors again? Lin Jinrong stood on tiptoe and looked west, in a vain attempt to see something.

However, the not too high hill behind Qingliang Temple completely blocked the scenery there, and she could only see water waves in the distance shining in the sun.

Lin Jinrong followed Gong's mother's words, changed his boots, put on a hood and cloak, and walked out of the back corner door led by Tiehuai's family.

This country house is simply built, not like the high-walled compound in the city, and there is a large paddy field not far from a row of willow trees in the backyard. Now that winter is idle, the water in the paddy fields has long since dried up, and there are some unknown weeds growing in the ground, and there is still a little green in the yellow, shining with a pale yellow warm light in the winter sun. There were no people coming in and out, only a few gray and white wild birds kept taking off and landing, and they were very clean. The sky was blue, cloudless, and the air was cold and a little clear, which was completely different from the feeling of the Lin family's compound.

Lin Jinrong took a deep breath and showed a heartfelt smile.

Tiehuai's family was originally a second-class girl next to Tao's side, informed and interesting, knew what the girls and young masters from the city liked, and said some interesting rural anecdotes to Lin Jinrong, and from time to time randomly pulled out a grass sprout from the ground or picked a dried leaf to show Lin Jinrong, what are the leaves and buds of wild grass and wild vegetables, what can be eaten, what can not be eaten, and what season is the most beautiful.

It's not a matter of interesting stories in the countryside, Lin Jinrong likes these wild vegetables she said the most, and she wrapped the longan in a serious way, and said that she wanted to go back and study it carefully, which made everyone snicker.

The group was talking, walking along the ridge, and unconsciously walked away, Lin Jinrong was about to lead the Tiehuai family to take her farther away, when he heard someone shouting loudly behind him: "Tiehuai family, Uncle Chang and grandma come to visit the master and wife." Mrs. asked you to quickly lead the girl to the meeting. How did you lead the girl so far, that I could find it? ”

Tiehuai's family looked back, and the house behind them had already become a small piece, and it was much farther than expected, so he couldn't help but pat his head and exclaimed, "Oh, my brain!" I had long expected that his family would inevitably send people to come and visit, so why did he lead the girl so far? I just cared about talking to the girl about these weeds and wild vegetables, and it was difficult for the girl not to be annoyed by the slave and maid, and she could listen to the slave and maid nagging for a long time. ”

Lin Jinrong said softly: "Mom, don't be modest, I am also a long insight." Maybe you will be able to use it someday. ”

Tiehuai's family glanced at Lin Jinrong with a smile, and felt that this gentle, kind and good-looking little girl was really pleasing to the eye: "The fourth girl is really comfortable to speak." The girl must not know who this Uncle Chang and Grandma Chang are, right? ”

"I got up early and listened to Gong's mother mention it. It's an uncle and aunt in the clan. Lin Jinrong's tone became more and more gentle: "In the future, my mother will be here to recuperate, and I will have to trouble them often. ”

"The year before last, his family came to join his family, and the eldest man arranged the family business for him, and it happened that his wife had land to sell near this Zhuangzi, so he placed it in this vicinity." The void of the Tiehuai family pointed to the southeast: "It is about seven or eight miles away from here, and it is their house." Their land is next to their wife's. The girl only needs to remember that this Chang grandmother is a continuation of the string, and the eldest young master and the second young master of his family are not born and raised by her, and the third young master is born and raised by her. ”

Lin Jinrong looked into the distance, but saw a large field stretching out in the southeast, a few rows of bare willows standing quietly on the horizon, and a hill in the distance blocked it, and the Lin Chang family's house could not be seen. He retracted his gaze and asked Tiehuai's family: "Didn't you say that there is a hot spring near here?" Where are they? ”

"Girl, take care of the root stumbling of the thread grass." Lin Jinrong, the support of the Tiehuai family, pointed to the west: "Look there, girl, there is a Qingliang Temple there, and the spring is inside." ”

Lin Jinrong squinted his eyes and looked closely, and sure enough, he could see a small temple with pink walls and tiles hidden in a row of dense pines and cypresses, so he asked casually: "I heard my uncle say that my wife can also go to the hot springs......

As soon as the Tiehuai family heard it, they knew what she was inquiring about, so they said: "It's a nunnery, and there are only two old nuns in it." The land is not big, the incense is not prosperous, the houses are dilapidated, and the two old nuns are too honest and lazy, so they do not show it, otherwise the wives and girls in the city will often come to play. ”

Lin Jinrong secretly thought, yes, the land is not big, the incense is not prosperous, and the house in it is naturally not much better, so there are hot springs that people don't like to come, such as Tao, it is impossible not to know about this hot spring, but he has never brought his children to play once. If it weren't for Tao Shunqin mentioning it this time, I'm afraid that Tao wouldn't have thought of coming here at all.

Tiehuai's family nagged again: "The water of this hot spring flows out of Qingliang Temple, bypasses Qingliang Mountain, and flows down along the Qingliang River, and one and a half miles below is the old gentleman's house, the old gentleman is highly respected, and built a school for free, not restrained and repaired, and teaches the children of the poor to read and write. The old lady of his family is a kind-hearted person, and she often gives alms to the old nuns in this Qingliang Temple. Speaking of which, Mrs. Zhuangzi's wedding is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the people are outstanding, it is really a treasure land...... "Mr. Zhu? Mr. Zhu Mengcao? Lin Jinrong's eyes lit up again, isn't that a very famous Confucian in Pingzhou? How can you think of neighbors again? Lin Jinrong stood on tiptoe and looked west, in a vain attempt to see something. However, the not too high hill behind Qingliang Temple completely blocked the scenery there, and she could only see water waves in the distance shining in the sun.

"Four girls, Mr. Zhu planted a large piece of peach trees and pear trees on Qingliang Mountain, and when the flowers bloomed in spring, the white pear petals and pink peach petals flowed down the river, and the fish in the river would come out to eat the petals. Do you and your wife stay until spring? The voice was crisp and urgent, and it described a beautiful picture for Lin Jinrong.

Lin Jinrong looked back, but saw a little girl wearing a half-worn pink jacket and skirt, tied in a bun, and about the same age as herself, poking her head out from behind Tiehuai's house to look at herself and smile, and a dimple on her dark face was particularly distinct.

"You damn girl! Who told you to talk a lot? There is no big or small in front of the girl. Tiehuai's mouth was scolding, but the smile and love in his eyes couldn't help it, "It's a joke for the girl, this is the third girl of the slave family, she is the youngest, and she is spoiled." ”

"It's okay, I think she's very pleased." Lin Jinrong smiled at the girl: "What's your name?" The girl said generously: "Back to the girl, my name is Miao Ya." ”

Gui Yuan laughed out loud, "If you want to call yourself a slave, where can you and mine with the girl?" His eyes fell on the girl's feet, and he found that the girl had a pair of big feet that were very different from ordinary people, and he couldn't help but hide his mouth and snicker.

Miao Ya blushed at this time and shrunk her feet under her skirt, but seeing that Lin Jinrong smiled gently, she didn't blame her, so she stuck out her tongue at Guiyuan, and happily spread a pair of big feet and ran forward: "I'll lead the way for the girl." ”

It's still a big grinning "me".

Lin Jinrong suddenly felt that she had fallen in love with this place, she turned around and asked Tiehuai's family happily: "Mom, when I came, I passed by a river, and there was a large piece of saline-alkali land by the river, whose family was that?" ”

It took a long time for the Tiehuai family to react to which piece of land she was asking, and said with a smile: "I don't know, that land has always been so barren, I'm afraid it's ownerless?" ”

Lin Jinrong frowned: "Ownerless? She remembered that there were laws in her dynasty, that there were no terra nullius, that there was no land to be cultivated, and that taxes were very low, and that there were even some lands that did not need to be taxed. But this is a good thing for others, but it is even more tricky for her.

On what grounds could she impress Dow and arrange for people to go with her to reclaim the wasteland? How can the barren land of saline-alkali land be cultivated!

Sure enough, the Tiehuai family smiled and said, "Who would want that kind of land." ”

Lin Jinrong smiled and asked her: "I made a bet with my uncle." Mother Ti Tie inquired for me who was in that place, and asked carefully, I have to thank you. He tilted his head and thought about it, and then said, "I don't know how many other places like this are around here?" I also asked. ”

The Tiehuai family was very curious about what Lin Jinrong and Tao Shunqin had bet on, but they didn't have the courage to ask, so they should not mention it, Lin Jinrong was afraid that she would be the same as others, treating herself as a child and perfunctory, and repeatedly told her to put it down.

The group returned to Zhuangzi, and Grandma Chang also accompanied Tao to sit there eating tea and gossiping: "Life is difficult, life is not familiar, last year's blessing in the house, settled down and married a daughter-in-law to the eldest child, hugged the eldest grandson, the second is nearly 20 years old but still nowhere to go, the dowry is too high, my three boys should say kiss again...... There is another one in this belly, and his father is so worried that he can't ......"

Dow expressed deep sympathy: "It's going to be fine." ”

Seeing a group of people surrounding Lin Jinrong coming in, Grandma Chang immediately took the conversation, was helped up by her mother-in-law, and smiled politely: "This is the fourth girl?" Looks so good. ”

Tao Shi hurriedly said: "She is a junior, you don't care about her, sit down quickly." ”

Grandma Chang smiled happily: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

"Blessed aunt." Lin Jinrong did the salute without hesitation, and when Grandma Chang sat down, Fang stood behind Tao and saw Grandma Chang's appearance clearly at a glance.

The woman was about thirty years old, and her appearance was only delicate, with a golden hairpin in silk and two beaded flowers, and a half-new light blue silk gown, a green skirt, and the most striking thing was the surprising belly.

Waiting next to her was an elderly mother-in-law, and a little girl who was only eight or nine years old, the mother-in-law's half-old skirt was still creased, and the little girl was confused, only caring about eating fruits.

Lin Jinrong couldn't help but think secretly, it seems that his family is not very wealthy, and his life is not very good.
