When Ziqing was entangled, Xiaolan came over and said that Ziyu had brought Wu and Yu over, and they went to visit He and Shen first, and wanted to come to Qingyuan to see Ziqing [Qing'er's Pastoral Life Chapter 254].

"I heard what you said about the face dressing that day, and when I told my cousin-in-law, who knew that she was more anxious than me, so she had to pull me over with me today." Wu Shi saw Ziqing and said with a smile.

Ziqing led the two into the West House and told Xiaolan to prepare things.

"Is my sister-in-law just here to put on a face today?" Ziqing saw that Yu seemed to have something to say and asked.

"That's the case, Ziqing, I'll discuss with your sister-in-law Xinfu, can you also find something for the two of us to do? Although the family's livelihood is not worried, the children are still young after all, and there will be more places to use silver in the future. Second, we don't do anything all day long, and it's not very good, and even the meals are eaten with the big guys. Yu asked.

When Ziqing heard this, she was a little surprised, she knew that Yu's family was also in a town in Linshan, the family was not from the countryside, she should not have farmed, and she usually watched her children do housework at home, but she didn't expect that after coming to Kangzhuang, she actually wanted to find something to do, which was rare.

"Then I wonder what my cousin will do?"

"I'll tell you the truth, don't be angry, I don't know what to do. That's the case, there are more and more people in Kangzhuang, and Mrs. Huang can't be busy alone, I think, it's better for those of us who have families, or eat separately, and now we are two families, but I heard that you will have to buy people in the future, and the children here are also getting older every year, becoming relatives, and having children. It's better to go over with your own family, and eat whatever you want, and the sister shares the daily side dishes with everyone, wouldn't it save the sister? Save more to buy a person on the stove. We are also suitable, and we can eat whatever we want. Yu said so much in one breath, and looked at Ziqing with some embarrassment.

Ziqing looked at her. Look at Wu's again, I'm afraid that this idea was come up by Wu's, Wu's has never had any hard life, and it must feel awkward to eat with a group of croppers, and I'm embarrassed to say that I don't want to do it alone. I ate it for a while, and when I saw Yu Shi coming, I came up with this idea.

"What's wrong with this, the share standard of Kangzhuang is a man with eight wen a day, and a woman with eight wen. It's just that in this way, my new brother Fu has to do a little more work. My sister-in-law reminded me that I would do this in the future, otherwise, the stove would not be busy, and I would have to buy another person, and I would tell Lin An when I turned around. Ziqing thought that this request was quite reasonable, and the children of these two families added up to a lot, and Mrs. Huang was really a little overwhelmed when she was busy. In this way, the buyer is cheap.

At this time, Xiaolan prepared the mask and waited for the two of them to lie on the Luohan bed, Wu sighed with a smile: "Today, we will also follow my sister to borrow the light and let people wait." It's good to have money. ”

"What does that sister-in-law want to do when she has money? My brother Xinfu hasn't earned less over the years, right? And there is no burden of the elderly. ”

"I'm going to be as rich as you, and I don't change into beautiful clothes a day, when I was young, in the city, I saw a rich lady come out, silk and satin, I don't know what kind of good material it is, I just think it's very good-looking. Later, after getting married, I had silver in my hand, so I took your brother and bought me the most gorgeous silk, Ziqing, don't you laugh at me? Wu said.

"What are you laughing at? I'm afraid I won't even be able to eat enough, and I don't dare to think about beautiful clothes [Qing'er's Pastoral Life Chapter 254, Sweet Potato Chips Chapter]. Ziqing remembered the invisible-colored clothes when she first came, and said that she had picked up Ziping's cheapness. It seems that in this world, there is really no definite cycle of cause and effect.

"By the way, Ziqing, my needlework is not bad, why don't I make some purses and send them to my brother-in-law, the sewing room over there is too busy, you can also call me to help if you have something." Yu said.

"It's better for you to concentrate on making purses, I can still help a little bit in the sewing room, and I can't let my sister support me in vain." Wu said.

This sentence is still listening, and it is not without a little merit, Ziqing said secretly. When the time came to speak, Xiaolan helped them wash their faces, touched their faces, looked in the mirror, and said with a smile: "It's really much more delicate." ”

The two smiled and walked hand in hand, Ziqing was in a much better mood because of this trouble, at least she was no longer entangled in Zeng Ruiqing's affairs.

The August Festival is coming soon, Lin Kangping did not come back, Shen Baofu did not go home, it is estimated that he followed Lin Kangping into Beijing together, originally, Ziqing planned to take the two of them to Qingyuan for the festival, who knew that the two families refused, saying that the two of them were together, and there were many people in the horizontal and vertical Zhuangzi, and the moon was still lively.

At the end of August, Zilu and Zishou came back, but after waiting for more than half a month, there was no news, and the two knew that they were on the list, Zishou was nothing, after all, it was the first time, and they still went back to the state to study. Zilu said that he would not go to the state to study anything, saying that he had been studying there for five years, and that Mr. had almost taught everything, so it was better to stay at home and read books for three years.

"After three years, if I don't get it, I won't take the exam and find a job to support my family. Dad, mother, you don't care about me, I know it in my heart. Zilu said.

"Nonsense, how old are you? Are there any people in their thirties and forties who still enter the examination room? Are you starting to get discouraged? Although Zeng Ruixiang is not optimistic about Zilu, he is also his son in the end, and he still hopes that the child can go further.

"Dad, Qing'er told me a word, this scientific expedition is like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge, since I can't squeeze others, I am destined to be squeezed by others, it is better to find another path suitable for myself. This life is only a few decades, and I don't think about it until I realize that I have only done one thing in my life, and I haven't done it well. We have an eldest brother and a younger brother, so my father doesn't have to force me, I promised to give myself another three years, if it doesn't work, I'll change my path. Zilu said.

After Zilu finished speaking, Zeng Ruixiang and Shen thought for a while, and then Zeng Ruixiang said: "Since you have decided, Dad will not force you, let's talk about it in three years." ”

Zilu doesn't go to the state to study, Chen naturally doesn't have to go to Anzhou, after getting married, the two can finally stay together, Chen's joy is self-evident, although she also has some regrets, but after all, people who can be lifted are like rare, Zilu is a talent at a young age, and Chen is already very content. In this respect, Shen picked the right person.

Because the family needs an absolutely quiet environment, Chen often brings his children to Qingyuan, and Yongsong and Shurui are only one year apart, and the two children have a companion together.

Ziqing was idle during this time, and heard that Kangzhuang's sweet potatoes were ripe, so Lin An sent some, roasted sweet potatoes, and sweet potato porridge were changed to a few times, and they were a little greasy, thinking about what could be processed, and opening a vermicelli workshop, but their own sweet potatoes were really too few.

Vermicelli can't be made, potato chips can still be made, however, the potato chips Ziqing said are not the kind sold in modern supermarkets, but when they were young, the kind of rough processing in the countryside, first wipe the sweet potatoes with a wiping board, put them in hot water and cook them for a while, and then dry them one by one, and then stir-fry them with fine sand, of course, if the conditions at home are better, you can directly fry them in oil, and the taste can be better.

Ziqing taught Xiaolan Xiaoqing to make some in Qingyuan, dried it, fried some sand, fried some of it, and sent some to the Shen family, and they didn't eat it, and they didn't eat it in Shen's family, saying that it was naturally fried more crispy, but it was too oil-intensive, so it was better to fry some for the New Year and serve it as a refreshment to entertain children.

Ziqing sent Lin An to send some to the shopkeeper Zhou, Ziqing felt that if someone bought it, he planned to make those sweet potatoes in Kangzhuang into potato chips, the cost of fried sweet potato chips is very low, that is, it took a little labor, suitable for most parents who are not too wealthy to buy to coax children, there should still be a certain market.

The news from the shopkeeper Zhou, sure enough, was not much different from Ziqing's guess, Xiaoqing Xiaolan went directly to Kangzhuang to teach Granny Huang, and made the big sweet potatoes into potato chips, and the small ones directly made dried sweet potatoes.

Ziqing left some good ones, and when the time came, they were fried in oil, and they were packed in an impermeable bamboo basket, and sent them directly to the Wen family with oranges, and some were also consigned in Zilu's restaurant.

After this busy time, Ziqing's birthday has also passed, Lin Kangping still hasn't come back, Ziqing has been in body for nine months, and her heart is always getting more and more irritable inexplicably, in order to restrain her irritability, Ziqing began to learn to practice calligraphy in the study.

Originally, Ziqing's words couldn't be handled, and there were too many strokes in traditional characters, and I almost didn't write well when I was young. This time, while Lin Kangping was not at home, Ziqing suddenly wanted to learn to write, mainly because Ziqing was worried that she might have to write something on a whim one day, and she couldn't write when the time came.

On this day, Ziqing was practicing calligraphy in the study, Xiaoqing said that Qiuyu was here, from Shen's side, Ziqing was a little puzzled, after all, Qiuyu didn't come to visit the door many times now, but she still received the purse Kangping made.

When Qiu Yu saw Ziqing, she hurriedly smiled: "I haven't seen you for so long, this belly should be born, right?" When will the belly be delivered? ”

"If you don't say that I have forgotten, you have to ask my mother. What has my sister-in-law been busy with lately? ”

"What can I do? It's not about making some purses, your sister-in-law is busy with the work in the field, and he also learns from you, buys five acres of wasteland, and wants to learn to plant some corn or something with you, but he doesn't know how to plow, and he spends money to ask his brother to help, and does the rest himself. Qiu Yu said.

"My sister-in-law can still endure hardships, maybe he just doesn't have the habit of doing it."

"I know, forget it, I'm not here to talk about this today, I have something I want to ask you."

Ziqing listened to it for a while, and inexplicably felt a little weak. (To be continued)
