Chapter Seventy-One: Landscapes

This is the time when the earth is rejuvenated. It's a good time to be nice.

Lou Yi is rare to be idle, so he took Xiaoru to the back mountain to play and go out on the pretext that Xiaoru has been busy with housework for many days, and it is very hard to take her to the back mountain.

The mountains and rivers are quiet, the breeze is blowing, and the environment is so good that people are amazing, Xiaoru is not the first time to see such a scenery, but every time she sees it, there is still an inexplicable feeling that comes to her heart.

Back then, in modern times, there was dirty air as far as the eye could see. The gray sky, white, black garbage burning, exuding a terrible smell, the rain falls, it splashes a faint yellow, with a pungent sourness, want to eat a little non-toxic and pollution-free health food, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, even if you spend a lot of money to go to the deep mountains and old forests, it is rare to see such a quiet landscape.

If you want to play romantic with your beloved boys and girls, you can watch the stars and set off fireworks, which is a luxury.

As for the cute animals, I don't know how many extinct species, the domesticated tigers, leopards and pandas in the zoo have long lost their most precious spirituality, they have become pets raised by humans, and they are no longer the pride of nature.

Therefore, just for the wonderful environment that is not polluted, in order to be obedient, Duoduo, Xiaopan...... Meet. Xiaoru felt that it was not so unbearable for her to cross this time, leaving TV, computer, light, car, ship, plane, and all convenient and comfortable life.

After swimming in the mountain for half a day, it didn't take long for the wind to blow, Lou Yi and Xiao Ru didn't want to go back so early, so they simply came to the bamboo forest not far from the back door, at this time the bamboo forest was verdant, and there was a unique fragrance of bamboo, which made people feel comfortable, Lou Yi set up the drawing board and sat on the ground in the bamboo forest, and Xiao Ru took a lot of it, obediently and Xiao Pan, who was a hundred times more energetic as soon as he entered the bamboo forest, sat behind him, half of Xiao Ru's spirit rested on his father-in-law's brush, and the other half of his spirit fell on the small kang screen embroidered in his hand.

I have to say. Lou Yi really deserves to be the beloved apprentice of the national teacher Gongsun Zhi, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, naturally very proficient, a scene of the bamboo forest in early spring, painted vividly, the upright temperament of the bamboo, depicted vividly, Xiaoru couldn't help but feel itchy, couldn't help but throw down the embroidery screen, took a pen and rice paper and drew a few strokes, but although she is a little sketchy, more or less understanding of painting, but after all, she is not good at Chinese painting, in the previous life, because of hobbies, from time to time to play comics, so that bamboo and pandas, How to look at how to have the joy of the Q version, it won Lou Yi to smile.

"Lady, you painting, let's go back and frame it ourselves, just put it in the bedroom and take a sneak peek, but don't let outsiders see it."

"Shameful?" Xiao Ru squinted, listening to Lou Yi's ridicule, grinning for a long time, finally laughing, shaking her head, crumpling the painting casually, and stuffing it into the basket she carried. changed the topic in his mouth, "I asked the steward, and our family's pump income seems to be more than eight hundred and seventy taels...... It's only been half a month. ”

Lou Yi smiled and nodded, "It's just the beginning now, naturally more will be sold, and there won't be so much after a while." After all, the Holy Lord requires the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make small profits and help agriculture, so our water pump actually doesn't make too much money. ”

"That's enough." Xiao Ru leaned comfortably on the soft fur and said with a smile, "When we make the most money, let's give up the pump part." ”

Xiaoru also knows in her heart that now the water pump is a new thing, of course, the sales volume is large at the beginning, but when the market is saturated, there will naturally be less money, and her mother-in-law always feels that she has suffered a big loss by handing over her things to the Internal Affairs Office, in fact, this is not the case at all!

With the Ministry of Internal Affairs in front of them, Xiaoru and they have no trouble at all. If you do it yourself, whether you can do it, whether you will be cheated by others, whether the technology will be leaked, whether those powerful people will suddenly become greedy, these are all unpredictable, maybe not only will you not make money, but you will also get into trouble, besides, although the status of the merchants of the Great Xia Dynasty is much higher than that of the previous dynasty, the concept of agriculture and industry is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Lou Yi is an official of the imperial court, and his family does business and spreads it, which is always detrimental to his reputation, so it is better to hand over things to the Ministry of Internal Affairs like now, which is called meritorious to the community, and he has to save face.

Lou Yi turned his head and glanced at his wife, a warm warmth flashed in his eyes, and he nodded: "Okay, in two months, we will earn thousands of silver, and we will push the molecule away." ”

He said it crisply and neatly, Xiaoru once again showed that his father-in-law still has a benefit, he does not despise money, he has an upright way to make money, and he will never pretend to be reserved and let go, but he is also not greedy, almost enough, and never wants to arouse people's jealousy.

From this point of view, Gongsun Zhi is indeed a very good teacher, but also a smart person, no wonder Conglong has merit, and is not taboo by the royal family, and even has the trust of today's saints, and has many friends in the government and the opposition, even if he has different political views, there are few criticisms of his character and style of conduct.

The days passed, summer was approaching, the Lou family had a lot of money in the warehouse, the current situation of the family's overstretched money was finally improved, and the people under the girl also got a lot of rewards, and the monthly salary was improved to a certain extent. The time was almost up, and Xiaoru no longer cared about the business of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was completely out of her mind, and began to think about planting new grain sent by her friend from Guangzhou.

In this way, it soon came time for Lou Cheng to be released from prison.

On this day, the weather was a little cold, thick clouds, and it was raining, Lou Yi was still doing what he had to do as usual, but Xiaoru was somewhat hesitant, and didn't know if he should personally help that Lou Cheng arrange it, although Lou Cheng and Lou's family had nothing to do with it in name, Xiaoru could see that her mother-in-law had changed more or less in recent days, staying in the small Buddha hall for a longer time every day, and she didn't have much appetite for eating.

Xiaoru looked at the rain outside the window, although she herself never wanted to see such a tiresome thing, but she still hesitated whether to ask her mother-in-law to meet that Lou Cheng, whether she was completely dead or had other ideas, it was better to say it in person and vent it than to be stuffy in her heart and hold back her illness.
