Chapter 297, mud legs know the county
Ziqing fed the child in the car, and then followed Lin Kangping out of the east gate of Anzhou, after going out is Linjiang, there is an island in the river, of course, much more than the one of Ziqing's house, a pontoon bridge spans the root of the city wall and between the island, Lin Kangping went over by himself, found Zixi to come out, Zixi saw Lin Kangping, naturally overjoyed, ran all the way across the pontoon bridge to see Ziqing. [~]
Ziqing looked at the pontoon and trembled, and her heart trembled, and she hurriedly poked her head out of the car and shouted, "Slow down, fall into the water carefully." How old a person is, I don't know how stable I am. β
Ziqing told him about the Fu family, he thought for a while, and said: "I listened to my sister, my sister said that it was good, I don't care, I haven't seen the eldest lady of the Fu family, but I have seen everyone else in the Fu family, and my temperament is not bad." β
"You're really messing around, it's not my sister living with her, if you want me to say, it's better to find a chance to meet, she has already seen you, and she should be satisfied." One day my mother comes, you follow my mother to take a look at each other, and if you are satisfied, our mother will go to propose marriage. β
Zixi thought for a while and agreed, "Sister, don't worry, I know how to do it, and I know what I want to do." Zixi said solemnly to Ziqing before leaving.
Ziqing came back from Anzhou, and was about to rest and go back to her parents' house, Shen came over, Ziqing told the matter, Shen looked at Ziqing and smiled: "You kid, you are really bold, but people are bigger than your brother's official, you dare to break in." β
"Mother, he is generally the same person as us, but he is a few years richer than us, and the conditions of our family are not bad? If you go in, you will know that the furnishings in their house are not much different from mine, and I look at the garden of his house, which is not as big as mine, but there are more people in the house. Ziqing said, the house in the Fu family's hall is really not much different from Ziqing's house.
"That's right, I went to Xia's house to see it. It's just that your father said that the furnishings in other people's homes are valuable antiques. I don't see any good. β
Shen is also telling the truth. After so many years of inheritance, those families are naturally not the same as the new small landlords like the Zeng family.
Zeng Ruixiang and Shen still took Zixi to the Fu family in the end, it is said that Zixi was quite satisfied, and after coming back, Shen invited the official media of Anzhou Mansion to the Fu family to propose marriage, and the rest of the matter went very smoothly. The Shen family prepared one for Miss Fu according to the Xia family's gift to Ziyu, which was not rude.
The Fu family was quite surprised that the Zeng family took out six hundred taels of silver as a gift, and they were even more satisfied.
Zixi wants to get married. Yang gave birth to a son, to invite her mother's family to a few tables, Kangzhuang also has two pairs to get married, happy events are rushed together, in order to celebrate, Kangzhuang killed two pigs, to the Zeng family sent half of it. The rest of the village was set up for a day. After a lively day, Lin Kangping and Ziqing attended their wedding, acting as a high hall for the four, Ziqing gave each of the two brides a big red ruler and a set of silver heads, and expressed a few words.
Ziqing saw that Huang Pozi was drying bacon, and suddenly remembered the sausage she wanted to make many years ago, which was small and never had the opportunity to make it. The specific procedure is still remembered. In my previous life, I always helped my mother to help, and I listened to her chatter, almost every must-have thing for the New Year in my hometown is still good for drinking. The formula is simple, if you want to say that it is troublesome, it can only be a little trouble to clean the small intestine and scrape it into a casing, but the people here will deal with these things, and Ziqing will not be eye-catching.
Because it's the first time. Ziqing only had one front leg. I asked for a pair of small intestines, and went home and let Xiaozi clean it up. I personally prepared white sugar and shochu to marinate the meat, and while pouring meat into it, I also had to use a needle to pierce the intestines to make an eye, and release the gas, six or seven inches, after tying it, put it in the sun to dry.
After the sausage was done, the day also entered the wax moon, Ziqing took it out for Lin Kangping to taste, it was quite successful, originally wanted to make some New Year's gifts, but unfortunately, once in the wax moon, the drizzle continued, Ziqing had to dispel this idea and leave it for next year.
Lin Kangping received a letter from Wang Cai and Wang Xi, both of them got married in November, and they were going to take their new daughter-in-law to kowtow to Ziqing and Lin Kangping, and also take Ah Tu and Ah Shui to experience another year, and after that, they ran away. (LeavesΒ·~..)
At the end of the year, Ziqing helped Lin Kang settle the accounts, and suddenly remembered that the two families in this Kangzhuang had become relatives. This Kangzhuang is like a family, the members of it are brothers and sisters, how can the brothers and sisters who are not married be easy to say, less selfishness, this has a small family, must take care of their own small family, so they have careful thinking, rather than waiting for one day to cause a conflict, it is better to be like Ziqing's family, as soon as they become married, they will be separated.
Ziqing told Lin Kangping about this truth, and Lin Kangping listened to it and said: "What you said has a certain amount of truth, but you, according to you, how should you be reasonable?" β
"There are 400 acres of dry land in Kangzhuang, more than 80 paddy fields, in addition to raising chickens and foreign fish, and more than 20 acres of bamboo shoots. We won't give monthly money. β
Lin Kangping listened to it and calculated it carefully, and said: "Now there is a harvest of about three or four taels of silver a year on one acre of dry land, even if it is three taels, they can have more than twenty taels of silver left over in a year on twenty acres of land, and after deducting a year's chewing, they can also have a dozen taels of silver left, and they can be more relaxed when they have children in the future." It's up to you, we don't have to worry about it, we don't have to worry about food and clothing, and we're not afraid that they won't bother to take care of it. It's a good idea, the Zhuangzi of the Wen family was like this before, but it didn't have such generous conditions as ours. β
"This season's wheat has already been planted, so it is better to give it to them now, and they can take care of it themselves when spring begins. The stove room can also save some trouble, now the children in the village are getting bigger and bigger, and they can eat it, Huang Pozi is getting more and more difficult, so I will do it in the future. When the people of Kangzhuang are married, our family's land will be divided. Ziqing said.
"I still have to find some female babies, male babies are enough, and I will go to the ruined temple outside the city one day." Lin Kangping was also a little worried, the girl was still not easy to find, and if it was a little cleaner, the tooth woman would also pick it up.
Ziqing solved a major matter, and her heart was relieved. The happiest thing is the two newlyweds, Lin An helped them calculate the account carefully, it is harder, in addition to chewing can have more than ten taels of silver left a year, who is not happy? Besides, the house, furniture, farm tools, and ploughing cattle are all equipped by the main family, where can I find such a good place? Even the peasant households in ordinary villages are not as rich as they are.
The four of them came to Qingyuan to kowtow to Ziqing to thank them, and the rest of the village knew, who wasn't full of energy? They all said that the main family really thought about them thoughtfully, and planned everything for them before and after, saying that the days were more prosperous, and Lin Kangping promised that they would have children in the future, and the children could get out of their nationality, and they were all happy.
Zifu came home during the Spring Festival, went to Kangzhuang a few times, asked them about the details of cultivating land, studied the yield and income of various crops, and also learned about sweet potato cuttings.
Because of the bad weather during this time, when Zifu came back, he always got a pair of mud legs, which made Zixi laugh at him, "mud legs know the county"
On this day, Zifu came back from the village again, and was changing his shoes in the upside-down aisle, and the shoes were full of muddy water. β
"I remember, on the day of the eldest brother's lift, the official messenger came to the door, and the eldest brother was not doing things in the field, and even the official messenger laughed and said, 'The little one is still the first time to report the good news to the man in the field.' Therefore, the eldest brother has become a veritable mud-legged magistrate from a mud-legged person. Zixi saw Zifu coming back in the hall, and vividly learned the actions and expressions of the officials back then, and the people in the room laughed.
"Do you remember so much, how old will you be?" Shen smiled.
Zifu entered the house and looked at everyone laughing, and before he understood what was going on, Zishou asked, "Our mud-legged Zhixian has gone home?" What's the takeaway today? β
"Itchy skin? Even big brother, you dare to joke. β
"Big brother, we are all praising you, really, you are so dedicated, I can't accept it, looking at you like this, I have no motivation to go to the scientific examination, this is the county and I have to go to the ground? I don't have the patience you have. "Zixi has never been in the field since he was a child, and he doesn't know anything about farm work, so he just knows the same, watering.
To put it bluntly, when the family was just separated, the Shen family relied on Zifu and Zilu to do the work in the field, especially Zilu, who really helped the Shen family a lot in the first few years. The family was all handed over to six-year-old Ziqing, who watched the children wash clothes and cook.
"Then if you have the ability, you will enter the first class, and the one who can stay as a Beijing official does not need to go to the ground." Zifu glanced at Zixi.
"Really? Big brother, what are the benefits of Yijia? β
"After the temple exam, you can also face the saint directly, and you will be exempted from the three-year internship period, and you will directly enter the Hanlin Academy, seal the seven products, and see your cultivation after three years."
"This can still be considered, I prefer the household department and deal with silver." Zixi thought about it, Zilu stretched out his hand and gave him a palm, and said with a smile: "The saliva is flowing out, when did you change from a foodie to a wealth fan?" β
Everyone laughed when they saw it, and Chen said: "Oh, the fourth brother is really funny today, I wonder if the fourth brother is still like this when he gets married?" β
"Really, when it comes to getting married, Xiaosi still waits for the township test to come back and then do it, and strive for a double happiness." Lin Kangping said.
"That's a must, or I wouldn't have a gift." Ziqing said.
"Sister, can you ask first, what is your congratulatory gift?" Zixi leaned next to Ziqing and asked.
"Get out, we'll talk about it after the exam." Lin Kangping pushed his head away.
"Little four, this brother-in-law is married, but it's not good, I remember that someone was responsive back then, and anyone could rip off the bamboo. It's only been a few years, and you've forgotten how you begged us in the first place? This is not good, this matter has to be talked about well, and we are also curious, what kind of meeting gift does the eldest sister want to prepare for the fourth brother and sister? Liu hugged Yongling and said with a smile.
was smiling, Xia Ganyong personally sent a New Year's gift. (This site: Your support is my biggest motivation. )
