The four of Quan Dongge came to the old house and drove the pig back to the tofu factory. Ten chickens, Xu Miao is quite kind, after the five hens and five roosters are picked, Xu Ya and Shilang and Xu Miao, the three of them pinch a few in one hand and leave.

Old Man Xu stood at the door of the West Cross Courtyard, looking at the backs of the three of them, and didn't move for a long time......

……

At the turn of the day, the Ding family sent three carriages, and Xu Zhengjiang took his wife, children, father, mother and a little sister to take office happily. No one in the village came out to see them off, but it looked quite desolate.

The place where I have lived for decades is coming, and no one comes to send it, which can only mean that this person is not very popular. Lu didn't care, his face was full of joy and he wanted to enjoy it in the future, Xu Bing was also very happy, the eldest woman should be married, she can be in charge of the house when she gets married, how good!

Zhao Cui'e didn't have any excitement on her face, after all, her daughter had just died, it was the daughter she was pregnant with in October, whether it was Xu Hanyang's or not, the child was the meat that fell from her body after all, and it would be a lie to say that it didn't hurt.

This family is gone, Xu Miao and his sister and brother are undoubtedly the happiest, they don't have to go to the old house in the future, they don't have to worry about their things over there, it's good......

After a few days of recuperation, Erlang was already able to walk around the ground, and although the back injury was not good, it did not delay his work. At first, everyone didn't let him get started, but Erlang was a tough temper and had to do everything.

Later, Xu Miao saw that there was really nothing wrong, so he allowed him to go to the house to help. Shiro was beaten by Xiao Wu a few times, and he already knew that he was good at learning, and he followed Xiao Wu every day. After the shares, he learned to read and write, learned the rules, and helped with chores in the tofu workshop during the day.

Xu Miao is not seriously injured, and now he is well-organized, in addition to being busy with the tofu workshop every day, he basically cooks at home, and in his spare time, he looks at the drawings of the house painted by Quanbei. The foundation of the house has been dug up, and Quanbei now goes there every day to tell Zhang Laosan what to do and what to do.

Soon, March passed, and at the end of the month, Qin Zhong sent the glass window, and Quanbei brought two craftsmen, and three people specialized in this. Everyone is also very vigilant, after all, such an expensive thing, if it is really broken, let alone lose money, even if he is asked to buy it, he can't find a place.

Everything is going smoothly at home, and Xu Miao is also very worry-free. On this day, Xiao Nizi was feeding the pigs, and Li Langzhong came, carrying the thorn roller stick that he had just dug up (that is, Acanthopanax senticosus), and said with a smile:

"Sister Miao, are you busy?"

Xu Miao heard the sound, turned his head to look, quickly put down the work in his hand, and said with a smile:

"Uncle is here, come quickly, enter the house."

"Okay." Li Langzhong nodded, followed Xu Miao into the house, put the thorn rolling rod in his hand on the outhouse, and said when he entered the house, "The thorn rolling rod on the mountain is good this year, I dug a lot and brought you some to eat." ”

Xu Miao poured a cup of tea, and when she heard this, she said politely: "Always let you think about us, it's so easy to dig up the mountain, you don't have to give it to us all the time, it's too troublesome." ”

"You kid!" Li Langzhong took the teacup, stood up and said, "Do we need to be so polite?" We didn't eat less of your tofu, and we didn't say so much, ah! ”

Xu Miao listened, grinned and nodded. Li Langzhong reached out and tapped her forehead, took a sip of water, put the cup on the table, took out a cloth bag from his arms, put it on the table, and said:

"This is eight taels of silver, which is the silver I gave to your second uncle to see a doctor, and he entrusted me to ......"

Li Langzhong told the matter as it was, that is, at that time, Xu Zhenghu pretended to let Li Langzhong see a doctor and took the money away. Originally, he planned to wait for Feng's aisle before handing over the silver to Erlang, but he didn't expect that Feng's autumn queen would be beheaded, and the silver could be given.

Xu Miao didn't squeak when she heard it, but she admired this second uncle, and said that she would rather be a mother who asked for food than an official's father. Xu Zhenghu is a special case, before he died, he found a way back for his two sons and left silver, which is quite responsible.

Li Langzhong saw that Xu Miao was stunned, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes, and after she came to her senses, he said:

"What are you going to do, brothers? Has it always been on your side? ”

Xu Miao shrugged, played with the rim of the cup, looked at Li Langzhong and said helplessly: "Sure, no matter how careful Brother Erlang is, he is a man after all, how can he take Shiro's kid well." ”

"But Shiro is sharp." Li Langzhong told the truth. After living in a village for so many years, I basically know what the children of my family are like, "Sister Miao, you are kind, but if you raise them and raise a white-eyed wolf, it is really ......"

When Xu Miao heard this, she was not only annoyed, but also very grateful to Li Langzhong. If you were someone else, you wouldn't have said it. No matter what, they are relatives of a grandfather and grandson, and an outsider said that it is okay to say that it is good, but if it is not good to offend people, it will be scolded, and it will not be able to be drawn.

Xiao Nizi looked at Li Langzhong gratefully, shook her head and said, "It's not that I haven't thought about what the uncle said, but there is no way, my second uncle looked for me before he died, mainly to talk about the two of them." ”

"Brother Erlang is honest, Shiro is sharp, we all know about this, but no matter what, it is his son. If he wants to find someone to entrust the orphan before he dies, he can only find me. ”

"He is old. Two why! Li Langzhong said with a little anger. How Xu Zhenghu treats his sisters and brothers on weekdays, although everyone doesn't often see them, they can guess it. Why are you so embarrassed to let people help.

"Uncle Li, don't be angry, if you look at my second uncle like before, I really shouldn't care. But when San Lang fell into the water, it was Brother Erlang who helped find someone to save him, and although Brother Erlang didn't take much care of us on weekdays, he didn't bully us, so it was nothing to help. ”

"In addition, now Shiro has also learned to be obedient, after being taught a few times by Xiao Wu, he understands politeness and rules, the child is still young, teach slowly and manage strictly, it shouldn't be wrong."

After Xu Miao finished speaking, he looked at Li Langzhong and smiled flatteringly. The latter shook his head speechlessly, was silent for a while, and said:

"You girl, you're a kind person, since you've decided, I won't say anything. It's not wrong to keep an eye on everything, you know? ”

"yes, I understand." Xu Miao nodded heavily.

Seeing her like this, Li Langzhong patted her shoulder with confidence. When the matter was over, it was useless to stay here, so I got up and went home. Xu Miao looked at the bag of silver and chuckled and put it away, when nothing happened......

……

On the other side of the house, I snatched the dry tofu workshop out first, and on this day, the academy was closed, and Xu Miao took San Lang, Xiao Wu and Xu Ya to the dry tofu workshop. The planning of this place was completely designed by Xu Miao himself.

It's similar to the factory building, but it's not as big as that side. The five stone mills are placed in a regular manner, and the beans are soaked and picked in another room. Loading and pressing ladle are not mixed with this side, so there are rules for separating them.

San Lang touched the brand-new stone mill, looked at Xu Miao, and said:

"Eldest sister, can you be busy?"

"Too busy." Xu Miao chuckled and said, pulling Xiao Wu's arm, looking at the glass window, and said, "At this time, there are four of us sisters and brothers, there is something I want to tell you." ”

When the three little ones heard this, they all stared at her intently.

"You also know that there are a lot of things at home now, Xu Ya can't leave the factory, you brothers still have to go to the town to study, I have to take care of the family again, and I have to go out to talk about business, I can't be busy, so I plan to let Brother Erlang go to the tofu factory to help, do you have any opinions?"

After Xu Miao said this, there was no squeak for three small days. In the end, Xu Ya and Xiao Wu all looked at San Lang, San Lang nodded at them, and then said:

"Sister, I know what you mean, the second uncle is dead, and the second uncle is going to be beheaded after the autumn, and the old mansion is gone, leaving the third uncle and two people. You want to help Brother Erlang and their brothers, we have no opinion, but it's ......"

"I'm afraid that they will become white-eyed wolves." Xiao Wu saw that his brother didn't speak, and directly helped to speak. Xu Ya nodded in agreement, the attitude of the three of them was obvious, as long as the two of them didn't turn against the water, they were all good to say, they were afraid......

Xu Miao nodded understandingly, sighed lightly, and said, "People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, I understand what you mean." You know what Brother Erlang is like, at that time in the old mansion, he didn't bully us, San Lang had an accident, and he also helped find someone, the only drawback is that he is a little soft-eared. ”

"It's nothing, it's good to hone and hone him in the future. As for Shiro, he is sharp and flirtatious, but Xiao Wu has taught him a lot these days, and now you can see it, you have to give us and the two of them a chance. ”

"That's the situation at home, you need people. You said that you don't need them, don't choose to believe it once, what else will our family and business do? ”

After saying this, the workshop suddenly fell silent. Xu Ya looked at his brother, then at his brother, pursed his lips, and said:

"Eldest sister, I support you. Like you said, choose to believe once, give them a chance. When I handed over the accounts to Brother Dahai for the first time, I was also worried and scared, but now there is nothing to do, maybe Brother Erlang and they will be fine. ”

Brother Dahai in Xu Ya's mouth is Chunsheng's eldest son. In winter, Xu Miao talked to Chunzhu about driving the car, and he was still an apprentice in the account room of the pharmacy at that time. Xu Miao saw that her sister was in charge of the factory every day and had to make accounts, so she told Chunsheng.

She handed over the sea for a few days, and after learning to understand, she sent him to Xu Ya, and now she is doing very well, and Xu Ya is also a lot easier. What the little girl said at this time is very convincing.

San Lang, who was still entangled, nodded busily at the moment and said:

"There is such a thing as Brother Dahai, then let's choose to believe in Brother Erlang."
