Chapter 82: Reaping the Joy
(These words don't count money.) Although these two chapters are a little depressing, I still have the cheekiness to ask for votes, new books are on the shelves, and you have a lot of support! Relatives who have pink monthly tickets, hold the watch, smash it to a heart, smack...... )
Longzhou, four hundred miles away from Jingzhao Chang'an! Originally, the carriage could arrive in two and a half days, but Xiaoxiao and his stepmother were on this trip, because there were guards on foot. Therefore, it took nearly four days to arrive at the Longzhou Mansion!
When Li Rusong received the news that his wife "> and his righteous daughter had returned, he just wrote down the memorabilia of the border people and sent it to the imperial court. Hearing that Mrs. "> came back with her righteous daughter, she hurriedly put down her official duties and went to visit. Although his love for the little one is not as deep as Mrs. Li's ">." But I really like this goddaughter who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, not to mention, the husband of this goddaughter, has already entered the palace to accompany him before he enters the Shi and the first. That's the glory that many people dream of...... Including him Li Rusong himself!
In the living room, Li Rusong was dressed in civilian clothes, and his face was full of warm and small conversations. Mrs. Li> was on the side. Picking up some gifts brought by Xiaoxiao, while listening to the conversation between the father and daughter:
"Xiaoxiao, how is everything doing on your farm now?"
"Back to Daddy, everything is fine, and the harvest has already begun!"
"Oh? Very good, very good! Didn't expect it to be so fast! Rejoice for you for the Father! Li Rusong was also quite surprised to hear the news, but this was not the focus of his concern, so he quickly skipped this paragraph:
"By the way, my father heard that Huayin County suffered a natural disaster a few days ago, and you dragged the sick body to the disaster relief, and also taught the victims a very practical method and saved many people. The people there now call you a 'female bodhisattva', but is that the case? ”
Xiao smiled casually: "That's the neighbors exalting their daughter, and the daughter is just doing her best!" ”
Unexpectedly, Li Rusong suddenly changed his words: "My father asked you, when you did your best, where was Wu Siyuan?" ”
Xiaoxiao didn't know why her father-in-law suddenly asked this, so she replied honestly: "My daughter doesn't know, I just saw him once that afternoon......"
"Humph!" Li Rusong suddenly snorted coldly, and Mrs. Li "> reprimanded. Only then did he realize that the opposite was his righteous daughter, not the usual subordinate colleagues. quickly adjusted his emotions at the moment, and then calmly revealed a piece of news:
"Girl, do you know? You teach the victims. In that way, hundreds of lives were saved. But this credit was taken by Wu Siyuan in a big way! The imperial court greatly appreciated it for its disaster relief. If it weren't for the need to return to his hometown according to the system, I am afraid that he would soon be promoted and rewarded by the imperial court. ”
"Huh?" Xiaoxiao also felt a trace of anger and worry, not because she was robbed of her credit, she didn't have that heart in the first place, she just wanted to do her part. What she was worried about was that if this Wu Siyuan was really promoted and reused, wouldn't it harm more people? With his greed, with a belly full of intrigues and tricks, he served in one county, and the people of one county suffered; In one state, the people of one state are victimized......
Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao said firmly: "Daddy, if Wu Siyuan is promoted because of this matter, he will be transferred out of Huayin County. For the daughter, it was a good and harmless thing. But with the greed, cunning, and viciousness of that thief, if he were to be promoted, wouldn't he be a curse to more people? At that time, the meager credit made by the daughter to save people. Doesn't it create a corrupt official who harms the people? Has not the daughter become a sinner? Please try to tell the truth to the court and prevent such a regrettable thing from happening! ”
Li Rusong pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said word by word: "Girl, it is not difficult for my father to let the court know the truth about this matter, and he can even go directly to heaven." It's just that...... I'm afraid it will bring you some trouble, if the court asks you to testify at that time, are you willing? ”
Xiaoxiao stood up: "Daddy, my daughter is willing, my daughter believes that hundreds of villagers in Zhaojia Village will also testify for their daughter!" ”
Li Rusong also stood up: "Okay, it deserves to be my Li Rusong's righteous daughter!" The matter will be left to the Father, and you will only have to testify! Girl, you don't have to worry too much, your uncle and uncle are all in important positions in the court, and Zhixuan's child is even more important to His Majesty. Measuring that Wu Siyuan and his skinny uncle, they can't afford to stir up much wind and waves! ”
Mrs. Li," > listened to the conversation between the father and daughter getting heavier and heavier, and interrupted: "Master, it is rare for a daughter to come once, and you will say something unpleasant when you come." Come and try this robe, this is what my daughter sewed for you with her own hands! ”
Li Rusong had already finished expressing the meaning he wanted to express, and he stopped hearing the words. Instead, he happily looked at Mrs. Li "> a gown in her hand......
In the evening, Li Qin, who had gone out to play, rushed back, and the sister and brother had experienced so many ups and downs on the farm together, so it was inevitable to sigh when they met. After that, Li Qin returned to his true colors, and his sister laughed in a few words......
After staying in Longzhou for five days, Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to rush back to the farm. It was the end of July. According to the original estimates, the second batch of hens will start laying eggs, and the first batch of roosters will be slaughtered except for a part of the seeds. At this time, the work on the farm, if she did not personally manage it, would probably be very chaotic. Therefore, on the 29th day of July, Xiaoxiao submitted his resignation to his father-in-law and mother-in-law to return to Huayin.
Before leaving, Li Rusong gave a rare personal send-off, handed over the "Great Sage Collection" to Xiaoxiao, and said seriously:
"Xiaoxiao, when you go back, take care of your farm. When the father has leisure, it is better to come to you, so that I can give birth to that ...... Take it easy. Your mother gave you two maids, and your father gave you two more guards. As he spoke, he beckoned two men over, and when he saw it, it was the two who escorted his stepmother to the farm that day. I heard my father-in-law continue:
"They are two brothers, and they have been following their father for more than four years!" As he spoke, he pointed to the slightly stronger one of them and introduced: "This is the elder brother Yao Shan, and the other is the younger brother Yao Hai." For my father, I gave them to you as a guard against the plots of those treacherous villains! ”。
The brothers Yao Shan and Yao Hai took a step forward in both directions: "Please rest assured, my lord, my subordinate brothers." I will do my best to protect Miss "> safety!" ”
Li Rusong nodded with satisfaction, took two steps back, and gave the place to Mrs. Li, ">." Mrs. Li's "> is not as strong as Li Rusong, and when she saw that she was about to leave, her heart was already sour. Hearing that his master said it so seriously, he was a treacherous villain and a guard, and he was worried, but he couldn't stop it. He took his little hand and was reluctant to let go, and asked for a while......
It wasn't until three poles in the morning that Xiaoxiao and the beard boarded the hired carriage. Li Siye took the Yaoshan and Yaohai brothers and embarked on the return journey back to Huayin.
Love the little farm. The first day of August.
Jiang Yun and Qing'er were already busy, and the lady "> was not there, and all the affairs of the farm were pressed on the two of them. However, the second batch of hens were red and the first batch of credits rushed to start laying eggs. Today, more than 1,000 eggs are produced every day, and the number is increasing.
At this time, the two were in the warehouse, carefully counting the loaded eggs into the warehouse. The day before yesterday, 3,000 eggs were sent to the county seat Ruyi Restaurant. Looking at the nearly fifty trays piled up in the warehouse now, Jiang Yun was full of bitterness, and couldn't help but cry out to Qing'er:
"Okay, I'll have to send 5,000 pieces tomorrow, how can I move ......?"
Qing'er was about to comfort and encourage him when he heard this, but there was a heavy knock on the door, so he had to quickly put down what he was doing, ran to the door and asked loudly: "Who knocked on the door?" ”
Li Siye's loud voice came from outside the door: "Miss Qing'er, open the door quickly, madam" > is back!" ”
Qing'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled out the latch as fast as possible to welcome the young lady back>. Xiaoxiao instructed Xiao'er to take the two new guards Yao Shan Yao Hai to settle down and stay, and then immediately asked Qing'er: "During the time I left, what happened to the farm?" ”
"Yes!" , Qing'er replied crisply: "It's a big event, miss" >, and the second batch of chickens has also begun to lay eggs. There are now more than 1,000 eggs every day, and more are growing every day! Miss: "> After you left, the farm sent eggs to the county seat four times, a total of 9,000 eggs, and the silver was kept by Brother Jiang!" ”
"Well, that's good! It's been a hard time for you. Xiaoxiao nodded with satisfaction, and then tasted a trace of unusual flavor from Qing'er's words: "Brother Jiang??? "This title, could it be that Qing'er, this girl, is actually ...... Jiang Yun? But this is also a good thing, I think Jiang Yun is already twenty-two or three, and it is strange if I don't want a daughter-in-law! Although Qing'er is only seventeen years old, in this era, seventeen years old has already reached the age of marriage. I was not there for half a month. The things on the farm are all on the heads of the two of them, and after getting along for a long time, it is natural to have secret feelings! Well, that's pretty good, and if the two of them are interested, they can be matched.
Keep this matter in mind for now, and keep it for later observation slowly. After all, Xiaoxiao is from the afterlife, she is not willing to force anyone, only when the two of them are in love, she can pierce this layer of window paper and match the two!
"Qing'er, I've been in Longzhou for a while, is there a letter from my uncle?" At present, in addition to the farm, Xiaoxiao cares about her husband Jun Zhixuan, who is far away in Beijing.
"There are two letters, the slaves and maids are all for the young lady" > properly collected and collected, do you want to take it for the young lady "> now?" ”。 Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Forget it, give it to me after dinner, walk around with me first, and tell me about the recent situation on the farm!" ”。 At this time, there was no entertainment in the evening, so reading Zhixuan's letters at night became a small enjoyment. In other words, all of Jiang Zhixuan's letters were pressed under her pillow. And there are two letters today, and there is a feeling of excitement and anticipation in my little heart: What will my husband say in the letter?
At the moment, I suppressed this curiosity, and inspected the farm accompanied by Qing'er, but I didn't find any difference from before, and I didn't find anything wrong. Only then did he put his mind at ease and had a new understanding of Jiang Yun and Qing'er's abilities.
I thought that the afternoon would be a relatively quiet time, but I never thought that just after lunch, someone would come to visit. When Qing'er brought in the person, after the man bowed down, he took out a contract from his arms:
"Madame" >, under is the second shopkeeper of Qingyun Building, today at the request of the owner and the big shopkeeper, come to discuss this contract with Mrs. ">, please Mrs. "> take a look! ”
Qing'er took the contract and handed it to Xiaoxiao, opened it and looked at it, and suddenly felt like she couldn't cry or laugh. Strictly speaking, this is not a contract, but a notice requesting an advance supply. Because autumn is approaching, the business of the restaurant will be increasing day by day. As the best restaurant in Huayin County, Qingyunlou has a shortage of various dishes. Therefore, the owner of Qingyunlou hopes that Aixiao Farm can fulfill the contract in advance and start supplying live chickens, fresh fish and other agricultural products to Qingyunlou.
After a little thought, it is better to say that the live chickens have grown up to be 2,500 chickens on the farm, and nearly 800 of them can be slaughtered. However, the fish in the pond are only about a pound, and it seems that it is still early, and they are supplied at this time, which is a big loss for the farm.
"The second shopkeeper, according to the contract between the farm and the restaurant, should have started to supply from the first day of October. However, the little woman understands the difficulties of your restaurant, so she can consider supplying some in advance. However, now the only thing that can be supplied by the farm is probably some live chickens, and as for fresh fish, I am afraid that it will have to wait until after autumn. At this time of year, there are more fish bones and less meat, and if you force the supply, I am afraid that it will smash the signboard of your store! ”
Why don't the two shopkeepers know this? It's just that the proprietor and the big shopkeeper are urging him, and he can only do things according to orders. At this time, Tingxiao can supply some live chickens in advance, thinking, this can be regarded as an explanation to the owner and the big shopkeeper. When he got up and said, "Thank you Madame" >, and then return to the owner and the big shopkeeper! ”
Xiaoxiao also smiled: "There is Lao Er's shopkeeper!" ”
After the two shopkeepers left, Xiaoxiao called Jiang Yun and asked him when he would deliver to Ruyi Restaurant next time. Knowing that it was tomorrow, when even he commanded:
"Let Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang prepare, prepare a hundred roosters, and send them to Qingyun Tower tomorrow!". Jiang Yun was taken aback: "Brother and sister, there will be 5,000 eggs in Ruyi Lou tomorrow, if you add another 100 chickens, how many people will have to send it?" ”
Xiao Xiao slapped his forehead and ignored this. After pondering for a while, he stood up: "I'll go to the uncle and find a way......." As he spoke, he hurriedly set off to find Uncle Jiang. In the evening, Xiaoxiao sat on an ox cart and slowly shook back to Ai Xiao Farm. The driver who drove the car, after handing over the ox cart and the ox cart to Jiang Yun, who came out of the news, threw off his legs and hurried back, and the problem of delivery was finally solved......
After dinner, Qing'er handed Jiang Zhixuan's two letters to Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao immediately couldn't wait to return to the room, opened the earlier one, and looked at it carefully. Unexpectedly, Fu Jun Zhixuan revealed a shocking news in the letter-
The queen is critically ill!!
