Zhou Weiji came back alone, obviously Dao Wufeng stayed on Su Yongshen's side.

"Second brother, you're back, are things okay in the yamen?"

Zhou Weiji can be regarded as the head of the Yamen of Huang County, he has been away for nearly two months, and after he comes back, he naturally has to report to the county magistrate first.

"There is a peak, and there is no big deal." Zhou Wei didn't want to say more about the things in the yamen to annoy Lan Yi, "Second Uncle explained it clearly?" ”

Lan Yi nodded happily.

Zhou Weiji also smiled, "Then, what happened to us?" ”

Lan Yi nodded lightly, "Second brother, tonight I will invite the second uncle's family, Uncle Weiyang and Brother Wentian to come over for dinner, you can come over later." ”

Zhou Weiji understood what she meant, and his eyes flashed with happiness.

Before the men arrived, Zhao Lizheng's eldest daughter-in-law Wu and Niu Dan's mother-in-law Niu Sister-in-law, and Zhou Weipeng's daughter-in-law Yang arrived first to help Lan Yi cook.

Lan Yi introduced Jia Shi to everyone, although Jia Shi didn't like to talk, but such a scene was still very thoughtful, making people feel polite but not too close, just right. Lan Yi felt that she was much better than when she was in the Wang family's inner house.

"We're late, Aunt Jia has brought out these big tables of dishes by herself." Sister-in-law Niu said with a smile, Niu Wentian went back to tell her that Lan Yi invited him to come over for a drink, and Sister-in-law Niu also asked the eighth wife and second sister-in-law to look at the stall that collected mountain goods, and came to Lan Yi to help pick it up, but she didn't expect it to be cleaned up.

The eighth wife and the second sister-in-law originally thought that they would come by themselves, but the stall couldn't be empty, and she didn't run as fast as the sister-in-law, so she could only stare there.

Jia Shi was steaming steamed buns on the fire, and said with a smile: "I cleaned it up alone, and Tao'er helped me clean it up before I went to the field." ”

"Aunt Jia, don't be modest. We don't know anything else, such a good-looking radish brother and sister can't be cut. Wu said affectionately, the long strips of radishes cut on the board, each one is exactly the same size, this kind of kung fu is not something Lan Yi can have.

"That's it, Aunt Yao, these sisters-in-law are all frequent, and they know that I don't have this skill." Lan Yi blew herself up, "Let's sit down, I'll go get a pot of tea, let's sit and talk for a while." ”

Yang said with a smile: "Brother and sister, the rice in the field has been harvested, my father-in-law said that he would send it to you after drying it in a few days, and Uncle Minshan confessed, and the rice stalks were sent directly to the side of the hillside to bundle peonies." I also planted some mung beans at home, and the beans were pulled together with the grain in a few days, and you can feed the livestock. ”

Yang's father-in-law is Zhou Weiji's second uncle Erfa, and they rent three acres of paddy fields in Wang Linshan, and now it's time to pay the land rent to Lan Yi.

"Fourth sister-in-law, this matter is not in a hurry. By the way, how are your peonies this year? "Tueshua has three sons and a daughter, and the younger son has not yet married, so he has not yet separated the sons. However, Zhou Chuan is a flexible brain, although he did not divide the family, but the money earned by his two sons was collected by themselves, and he did not interfere with what he wanted, so after discussing with her husband Zhou Weipeng, Yang bought five acres of hillside at the edge of the village and planted peonies with Lan Yi.

"After planting the fertilizer and pressing it, Brother Lin Xi used to teach it little by little." Yang's face was happy, "The five taels of peony seedlings will be repaid at the end of this month." ”

The two of them have no savings, and now they still owe Lan Yi and them five taels of silver for peony seedlings.

Lan Yi hurriedly said: "Fourth sister-in-law, you are really not in a hurry about the silver, you can talk about it when you have more money." ”

It's a matter of closing accounts at the end of the year, and it's still a few months before the end of the year. When Yang heard this, he smiled very happily: "My brother and sister are no longer at home these days, so I don't know." Some time ago, their brothers went into the mountains to pick fruits for more than ten days, and they were lucky enough to find a red fruit tree and earn a few taels of silver. ”

Sister-in-law Niu nodded, "Yes, at that time, no one in this brother came out with two big bags of fruits, more than two hundred catties, and his clothes were hung by tree branches." The next day, Uncle Erfa's family went into the mountain, and the red fruits, chestnuts and hazelnuts that came out of their backs were all worth thousands of catties. Fourth brother and sister, I remember that you carried 150 catties of fruit at that time, and your sister-in-law was far worse than you. ”

The husband went into the mountain for three days, and when he came home, he was covered with mud, and his body was hung with more than 20 cuts on the branches, but he happily pulled her into the house, and carefully took out two hangs of money for her to save. Their family has a lot of land and little land, and they can't wait to break a penny into a three-petal flower, and two hanging money is enough for the family to count around for half the night. She felt sorry for her husband, and the next day she followed him into the mountains, found the forest, gritted her teeth and carried more than 100 catties out.

"It's not like I'm thinking about letting the baby and his father make a few fewer trips." Yang's eyes were red, "Daddy Wa was carrying two big bags at the time, and he was always behind me to help me carry them, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to carry so much." ”

Lan Yi saw that her nose was sour, and the farmer was bitter, and it was not easy to have such an opportunity to make money. It feels good to be a family working together to earn money.

Wu said enviously, "Fourth sister-in-law, if it wasn't for my mother-in-law to stop me, I really wanted to go with you at that time." ”

Yang snorted and glanced at her, "Come on, your family's life is moist, why do you need to do this hard work, we can't do it." ”

"What's the point?" Liu walked in briskly from outside, "You guys arrived early, huh?" Sister-in-law, this is chestnuts and hazelnuts, you can put them away. My mother-in-law said that Wenxuan loves persimmon cakes, and she dried a lot of them for me to bring a piece. ”

After knowing Wen Xuan's true identity, Second Uncle Wang's family also changed their words and no longer called him by his nickname.

Lan Yi nodded and took it, "Third brother and sister, I have to trouble you to run, there are many people tonight, and there are not enough bowls at home, so you can go home and get some dishes." ”

Chen came in with a basket on his back at this time, "All the dishes at home are here." ”

Sister-in-law Niu clapped her hands and stood up, "Brother and sister, count it or not, I'll go home and get it if it's not enough." ”

Lan Yi pondered, "Almost." Aunt Yao, I'll light the fire, you prepare the stir-fry, everyone should come back. ”

Wu quickly stood up and walked to the stove, for fear that someone would rob her, "I'll burn the fire, I'll burn the fire." ”

Jia Shi nodded, "Then it will be troublesome for Liangxiu's daughter-in-law, this pot should be fine for another quarter of an hour." Wait for the steamed buns to come out of the pot, and then heat the ribs and meat to serve. ”

Yang also came over, "Brother and sister, what other dishes do you have to clean up?" ”

Lan Yi looked at it, "Fourth sister-in-law, sister-in-law Niu, you can smash some hazelnuts, and add some sugar to eat as a dish later." Second brother and sister, you and the third brother and sister help me tear the duck apart. ”

Everyone moved when they heard the sound, and at this time, Wang Chunrong and others also entered the house with a group of domestic animals headed by donkeys, and Lan Yi went to the yard to greet everyone into the house.

Not only Niu Wentian, but Zhou Weipeng and Tuesday Quan, who helped today, also came over, and Zhao Lizheng and his eldest son Zhao Liangcai also arrived with their front and back feet.

Lan Yi hurriedly beckoned everyone to sit down in the house, because there were too many people coming, Wang Linxi went home and moved the Eight Immortals table and stools at home before sitting down.

Wang Linyuan took Xia Shun to the door. Xia Shun is now the big shopkeeper of Qingshang Shangji, and he is so busy that his feet don't touch the ground all day, but when Lan Yi comes back from visiting relatives, he still rushes over to greet him as soon as possible.

"Shopkeeper Xia, please come in, why did you come here in person." Lan Yi smiled.

Xia Shun returned the salute, and the busyness of the shop did not make him look tired, but more calm and energetic. In front of Lan Yi, his respect was no less than that of Xia Wan, "Madam is finally back, are you still going well on the way?" The eldest young master and the seventh young master will come back tomorrow, and I won't go back on the hillside tonight, so I must have a few more drinks at your place. ”

Xia Shunzhan is shallow and rarely drinks, which shows that he is really happy today. Lan Yi knew why, "Shopkeeper Xia, please sit in the room, my father is talking about you." ”

Xia Shun laughed, "This is fate, who would have thought that there would be such a coincidence!" ”

Wang Chengde walked out in a few steps and shook hands with Xia Shun, "Brother Xia Shun, as soon as my brother heard that you are here, come in, come in." I saw Xia Nong's child in Meixian a few days ago, and it has been a lot of fun for more than a year. Your brother has a successor, congratulations. ”

Xia Shun and Wang Chengde met when they were in Meixian, and they also ate wine together, and they admired each other's temperament, and with the relationship between Lan Yi, they became closer.

Zhou Weiji also walked in, and Wang Linyuan hurriedly stepped forward, "Second brother, why did you come here, sit in the house quickly." ”

Zhou Weiji's arrival did not surprise everyone, after all, he was Lan Yi's savior, and it was appropriate to invite him over today.

Lan Yi looked at the dark and oppressive figures in the room, and was glad that she and Jia Shi had prepared enough dishes, so she hurriedly set the table. After the wine and food were served, Lan Yi poured wine and said a few polite words to everyone, and asked Wang Linxi, Wang Linyuan and Wang Chunrong to help her greet everyone, and she returned to the kitchen to greet the female dependents.

Sister-in-law Niu and the others saw that the food was served, so they washed their hands and prepared to leave home to cook. Lan Yi said a few polite words, prepared a bowl full of meat and vegetables for each of them, and brought it back to the children and elderly people at home to eat.

Wu and the others said a few polite words and took the children to say goodbye and go home. Sister-in-law Niu looked at the two sons who were eating steamed eggs around the table, and shouted, "Don't hurry up for me!" ”

Niu Dan and Zhou Feiyu, the third child of the Yang family, were playing with Yu'er and them, and they were used to coming a lot, and they had already come to hear the fragrance of Lan Yi's family. Niu Dan's second brother Niu Xiushun also ran over in the name of calling his younger brother home after returning home from Yixue, and refused to go back.

The two children heard their mother's yelling and hurriedly sped up, Lan Yi persuaded: "Sister-in-law, let them eat here." ”

"That's not going to happen! Originally, there were a lot of people in you, and these two stinky boys would only make a mess here! Sister-in-law Niu looked at her two bear-eating sons and was a little uncontrollable.

Jia Shi smiled: "What can two children do to make a mess, it's okay, it's not that you can't sit in the house." ”

Niu Xiushun nodded vigorously, patted his chest and promised, "Mother, you go back first." Later, I will take my brother back together, mother, don't worry, I will definitely be optimistic that my father will not let him drink too much and make trouble. ”

Niu Dan simply pierced his face into the bowl, pretending that his mother did not save zài.

Sister-in-law Niu's eyes widened, and she was about to scold, Lan Yi hurriedly picked up the bowl and stuffed it into her hand, and pushed her out, "Sister-in-law, there are still three children at home who are hungry, you can go back first." Xiushun and cow eggs are in charge today, so let them eat here. ”

Jia's craftsmanship is good, and everyone has unanimously praised it, Li sat next to Jia's, and the two exchanged cooking experience from time to time, which seemed very affectionate.

"If I had half of Aunt Jia's craftsmanship, my Niuniu and his father would be very happy." Liu picked up a chopsticks of leek fungus scrambled eggs and put them in his mouth, satisfied with ten percent envy, "This taste is not something that can be made with more oil, if you change it to our peony seed oil, the taste is amazing." Sister-in-law, otherwise let's go to the city to buy a shop and open a restaurant, Aunt Jia is in charge, you are the shopkeeper, and I will run the hall! ”

Li Shi glanced at her when he heard it, "Drop the money in your eyes?" You know how to make money, and you see the mess in your house, and there is no place to put your feet! It's just that San'er has a good temper, and if you change someone, you have to be beaten out! ”

Although Liu is good at taking care of himself, he doesn't like to tidy up the house, and the house is messy, so Li, as a mother-in-law, naturally can't see it.

Lan Yi saw that Liu couldn't raise her head when she was said, so she relieved her and said, "Second aunt, isn't this busy in the field, it'll be fine in a few days." ”

Li shook his head and sighed, "Old family, if your brother and sister catch up with half of your diligence, I will be content." ”

This meal lasted for an hour and a half. Li and Liu had gone home with their three children to sleep, and Chen stayed behind to help clean up.

Lan Yi asked Jia to take the two children to freshen up, and she and Chen were busy.

After everyone dispersed, the dishes and chopsticks in the house were also removed, and Second Uncle Wang left Zhao Lizheng and his son, and only Second Uncle Wang and his son accompanied him in the house, and simply told Lan Yi the true situation. Lan Yi's identity and household registration have now been changed to real, so naturally she has to make it clear to Li Zheng, who is in charge of household registration in the village.

As for Wang Chengde's father and son? They are today's distinguished guests, and they have been persuaded by everyone to drink, and they have been drunk and lying on the kang and snoring to see Zhou Gong.

Zhao Lizheng knew about Lan Yi's amnesia, and he also heard some signs from the interaction between Wang Chengde and Xia Shun during the meal just now, and he didn't seem surprised at this time.

"Second brother, I made a note of it, Lin Shan's daughter-in-law has set up a female household, and it doesn't have any impact. Moreover, the baby is not yet three years old and has not officially entered the ancestral home of the Wang family, so there is no trouble. Zhao Lizheng analyzed.

The Wang family in Beigou Village only has two relatives, Uncle Wang and Wang Linshan, and there are no other clansmen, as long as they have no opinions, it will not be a problem at this time.

Second Uncle Wang nodded, he had already thought of this.

Zhao Lizheng continued to ponder for a moment, and asked cautiously: "It's okay to say that it's just the land and real estate in Lin Shan's name, what do you think you should do?" ”

Lan Yi is not Wang Linshan's wife, and Wen Xuan is not Wang Linshan's son, Wang Linshan's eight acres of land and this big courtyard naturally have to be explained clearly, and Zhao Lizheng's responsibilities must be asked clearly.

Before Second Uncle Wang could reply, Lan Yi walked in, "Uncle Yang, Second Uncle's family is willing to forgive me, it is a great luck that our Beigou Village is willing to accept our mother and son, how can we still occupy the fields and properties in Linshan." The fields are all under the name of the second uncle, but this big courtyard, don't hide it from the second uncle, I am used to living in it, and I want to buy it with you. ”R1152
