During this period, Zhang Manchu also came to visit the house a few times, but after all, there was Zhang Xiuniang who had just been hurt by rumors in the house, so even if he didn't have any other ideas, he just came to see if there was anything he could do to help. [No pop-ups. 】

On the contrary, Lin Baozhu made some rice porridge, cut a small pot of grilled cakes made before, mixed them and sent them over. Then he stayed there with Zhang Xiuniang until the evening, when Shi Dayong's fever subsided, and then he brought white rice porridge over and let them eat some.

It's not that Lin Baozhu is stingy, but that the Shi family's affairs came suddenly, and they had already had enough to eat when they came. In addition, because of Shi Dayong's serious injury during the day, it made people feel uncomfortable, and they couldn't care about any fancy food.

It wasn't until the second watch that Shi Dayong woke up in a daze, which really made Zhang Xiuniang and Zhao Di breathe a sigh of relief.

There was a fire buried in the stove room, and seeing that Shi Dayong woke up, Lin Baozhu hurriedly beckoned his man to go and get some hot water. Then he hurriedly came in with rice porridge, because the doctor explained that when Shi Dayong just woke up, he could only eat some liquid food, so the white rice porridge was just right.

was fed a small half bowl of rice by his daughter-in-law, and Shi Dayong breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the embarrassed appearance of his daughter-in-law, who has always loved cleanliness, his throat couldn't help but tighten, his eyes were sour and uncomfortable, and he couldn't cry when he screamed at his daughter-in-law.

Zhang Xiuniang's heart was already sour and bitter, and when she saw this situation, she couldn't hold back her tears anymore. At this time, the couple and their daughter Zhaodi's family hugged their heads and cried happily.

Lin Baozhu knew that they had resentment in their hearts, and it was okay to cry. Immediately, he turned a corner and went out of the house quietly. Xu was affected by the sad atmosphere in the house, and she felt very uncomfortable, and when she looked up when she got out of the house, she saw that in the moon, the rough and burly man of her own family was standing in front of the window and looking straight at herself.

She couldn't tell what mood she was in, and she couldn't even understand why her eyes suddenly changed for the better, and she could even see the worry and love on the man's face.

At this time, Zhang Manchu was never lucky, glad that he was not oppressed by filial piety, and glad that his daughter-in-law was not as obedient as the sister-in-law of the Shi family.

"Let's go back to the house, I still have to go to the town tomorrow, today I went to the house in the front mountain, saying that it will be a beam in a few days, and we will have to buy a banquet." Zhang Manchu didn't want to interfere with the Shi family's housework, so he had to take his daughter-in-law's hand and talk about his house in detail.

Listening to his man talk about Shangliang, Lin Baozhu also cheered up and responded with two sentences.

"Well, it's good that I have to pay the tea tomorrow, I have saved enough two hundred taels of silver in the money box, remember to take it and pay it back first when you leave tomorrow." Lin Baozhu whispered, but his eyes slowly narrowed, and finally the whole person fell asleep groggily on his man's arm.

There was only one oil lamp in the room, and all the sparks were faint, shrouding a faint circle of light, making the not bright and spacious room extra warm and peaceful.

Zhang Manchu bowed his head slightly, looked at his daughter-in-law beside him, and finally took the person into his arms and gently kissed his daughter-in-law's forehead. It's good to have her, even if I'm waiting outside, I'm very down-to-earth.

There was nothing to say all night, but in two hours, the sky was bright.

Thinking about things in his heart, Lin Baozhu made an exception and got up early in the morning, seeing that there was no movement in the east room, thinking that he was afraid that he didn't have a good rest all night last night.

Thinking so, she beckoned her man to pick up the firewood, washed herself, and went straight to the stove to work.

Yesterday was a little hot, and I stayed up all night, so I was afraid that the big guys would not have a good appetite, so I simply didn't do anything greasy to eat. I only fried two vegetarian dishes, mixed a yuba grilled cake, and finally baked a few meatloafs, and cooked bud rice porridge before stopping.

There are more people eating, and naturally there are more people to cook than usual. Thinking about the saltiness that her man ate, she took another piece of pickles sent by Aunt Ma and cut them into shreds, then poured some sesame oil and mixed them.

This meal was almost ready, Zhang Xiuniang was embarrassed to bring Zhao Di out, looking very haggard, just looking at the black circle under the eyes, I knew that I was afraid that I would be uncomfortable all night.

"Sister-in-law, how is Brother Shi, is he better?" Lin Baozhu saw that someone was coming, so he hurriedly wiped his hands and asked.

"It's much better, I drank a small bowl of water at that time, and then I'm lying down again." Looking at Lin Baozhu's concerned appearance, Zhang Xiuniang's heart was sour, and she almost shed tears again.

She felt very sad in her heart, how many years, she followed Shi Dayong to serve the family, but ended up with such a bleak end. Not to mention, even if it is a cow or a horse, ordinary people will treat it well, let alone a family population?

Lin Baozhu looked at Zhang Xiuniang's complicated expression, and didn't know how to persuade for a while. After all, the matter is not from oneself, even if you sympathize, you can't empathize with it in the end.

"There is hot water in the small pot, you hurry up and wash your face with Zhao Di, wait for us to eat some first, and when Brother Shi wakes up, then steam an egg custard for Brother Shi, so that you can nourish and nourish." Saying that, Lin Baozhu had already pulled Zhao Di to his side, "Zhao Di, good boy, as long as your father and mother are here, why can't you settle down?" You can stay in peace, and my aunt will take you to the mountains to play."

She really feels sorry for Zhao Di, even if she encounters such an unreliable grandparents, her partial-born father and mother can't be ruthless to protect her daughter. Probably this is the sorrow of this feudal world.

Although she didn't say it, Lin Baozhu couldn't see it, Zhao Di looked shy, but her mind was the most delicate and sensitive, otherwise she wouldn't be cautious from time to time, for fear that she would be angry if she didn't do well. It's just a half-grown child, but it's more tired than an adult.

Zhao Di saw her father injured before, and her mother just cried, she didn't have a backbone, she just felt that the sky was falling. But after coming to Aunt Baozhu's house, after eating a full meal, listening to Aunt Baozhu's gentle words to comfort herself, she suddenly felt that life was not so desperate.

Just like Aunt Baozhu said, her father and mother are here, as long as she is obedient and diligent, she will definitely make her father and mother happy.

The little man, his eyes were full of trust and looked at Lin Baozhu, and he nodded solemnly for a long time before he agreed.

The breakfast was very rich, and because Lin Baozhu felt sorry for Zhao Di, she specially boiled an extra egg for her, and the depression in her heart dissipated a lot after crying, so the faces of Zhang Xiuniang's mother and daughter were much better at this time.

After eating, Lin Baozhu first sent Zhang Manchu out of the house, and then picked up the stove with Zhang Xiuniang, and then asked Tian Damiang to be busy making tea.

In the next few days, due to the careful care of his family and the nourishment of Lin Baozhu's flesh and bones, Shi Dayong's face became better and better. Thinking that his family is in trouble now, he can still get the sincere treatment of Lin Baozhu and his family, so Shi Dayong's family is very grateful.

And Zhang Xiuniang was even more rushing to work, inside and outside the house, and even saw Lin Baozhu washing clothes and hurriedly grabbed them to do it. And Zhao Di was also like a little adult, helping to light the fire and wash the dishes, that is, later Lin Baozhu really pitied her, said that she would not let her do anything, and even bought a bag of sugar from the village and grew up with the field bench Several daughters came to play with Zhao Di every day.

The women who came to work in the village were happy to give Lin Baozhu face, and their children could also get good food, so they didn't have to worry about anything they did, and they brought Shi Zhaodi.

No, it's not been a few days since Shi Zhaodi, who has been silent, also began to have a smiling face. Sometimes I will follow behind my mother's mother and Aunt Baozhu's buttocks, and talk about the novelty of playing with my friends during the day.

For this change in her daughter, Zhang Xiuniang took it to heart in her eyes, and naturally became more and more grateful to Lin Baozhu and her family. Later, Lin Baozhu found out that Zhang Xiuniang also knew tea, and after careful questioning, she learned that her father had actually worked in the tea garden in Yanjing.

Now she has found a treasure, and after discussing it with her man, she asked Zhang Xiuniang if she would like to come to Zhang Ji Tea Workshop to work. For food and lodging, two taels of silver a month. Of course, if Shi Dayong is willing, he can also deliver goods like Zhang Manho, one or two silver a month.

They were already in trouble, penniless and had nowhere to go, so they had to be taken in by Zhang Manchu and Lin Baozhu so that they would not die on the streets. Now seeing that Zhang Manchu and Lin Baozhu still have to arrange work for them, how can anyone disagree, and a thousand thanks are naturally indispensable.

There are more people in the tea shop, and they are familiar with the quality of tea, so everyone is naturally more handy when they do their work. The quality of tea and the work of making tea have also improved a lot, and even broken green is rare.

Seeing that the days are getting more and more prosperous, and although Anping Tea Shop is still ordering tea, it is obviously a little difficult to buy all the tea leaves from Zhangji Tea Workshop. So Lin Baozhu pondered about finding other sales channels, she and Zhang Manchu had not been to several nearby towns, and most of the tea sent to the county seat was also a branch of Anping Tea Shop

With this thought, she discussed with Zhang Manchu about buying an ox cart or a mule cart. After all, if you really want to run around talking about business, it is unrealistic to walk every day. What's more, even if it's for delivery, it's convenient to buy a car.

It just so happened that the masonry class set the upper beam on the second day of the junior high school, so Zhang Manchu made a decision and said that when he went to the town to catch the market on the first day of the new year, he would buy meat and vegetables for the banquet, and by the way, he went to find a livestock dealer to buy a mule.

It's not that they are reluctant to spend more money on ox carts, but compared with cattle ploughing the fields, mule carts are not only cheaper, but horses and mules not only have the weight-bearing ability and resistance of donkeys, but also have the flexibility and running ability of horses.

After all, they buy cars for business, not to cultivate the land or make a living by hiring cars.

The two of them agreed, and Lin Baozhu took the tea money that his man had just settled and began to keep accounts. By the way, the two of them talked about the side
