Chapter 216: Chunrong Arrives
The sour cabbage was eaten by everyone after Lan Yi arrived in Beigou Village, and before the red fruit was made into a sugar gourd, the people in the village also ate very little, so naturally there was nothing to pay attention to, and I didn't know that pregnant women couldn't eat more.
Lan Yi hurriedly comforted her: "It's okay to eat less." Most of the vegetables in the greenhouse can be eaten, fresh vegetables are the most good for children, you can pull some back later, and come back to get them after eating, hazelnuts and walnuts can also eat more nuts, right, Aunt Yao? β
Jia, who was a little stunned, came back to his senses and comforted Liu, "What Tao'er said is true." You can't eat too many red fruits, although you are small this month, the pulse is stable, don't worry. Pay more attention to your diet, children who eat rabbit meat will lose their lips; Eating crab children is afraid of being born; Children who eat ginger will have more fingers and toes; Children who eat soft-shelled turtles will have short necks; β
Jia's head is the Tao, Liu's nodding again and again, Lan Yi's skin was scorched by lightning, where did these taboos come from?! If you count it like this, what else can you eat?
After Jia Shi finished speaking, he said a few more words and stood up, "You guys are talking, I'll go and see why the two children haven't come in yet." β
Yu'er and Wenxuan didn't bother to enter the house when they came back, so they ran to the greenhouse to check if the little monkey was there. Strange to say, this little monkey seems to have relied on Lan Yi's greenhouse, and it doesn't harm anything, only eats cucumbers and drinks some water. Although it is not big, but two cucumbers are not enough for it to eat, Lan Yi still wants to add vegetables, so he simply gouged out a few radishes from the soil pit in the courtyard, washed and cut them into long strips the size of cucumbers, and put them on the edge of the melon vine, and the little monkey also gnawed and ate a few.
Liu has plum candy in his mouth. Looking at Jia's back, he leaned over to Lan Yi's side, "Sister-in-law." How old is Aunt Jia this year? β
"I'm almost thirty years old."
Liu's eyes rolled, "This age is not too old, Aunt Jia looks like this, she didn't think about finding another one?" β
Thirty years old, it is indeed not too big, Jia was a wooden beauty with a heart like water when he was in the Wang family in Meixian County, and he has been in Beigou Village since he arrived. There are more smiles on his face, his eyes are smarter, and he looks a few years younger. Not like a woman who toils in the field day in and day out. But Zheng said that she had suffered a lot in marriage, and if it weren't for Mrs. Zhou's persuasion, she would have been strung into the nunnery to be a sister-in-law. If it is tempting her, I am afraid it will not be easy.
"We are juniors. Where is the turn of the elders to talk about it? β
Liu Shi spit out the black plum kernel and raised his eyes, "Sister-in-law, you don't know if you go out, there are not one or two people in our village who are worried about Aunt Jia, and people from Zhoujia Village have come to inquire." β
Jia is not only beautiful, but also a girl, and she is still a childless. It's normal for someone to be worried.
"Aunt Jia has to make her own decisions about this matter, we can't talk nonsense." Jia's deed of sale was in her hands. But Lan Yi has never regarded her as a person, if the Jia family really fancies which one plans to get married, Lan Yi will return the deed of sale to her, this topic, it's not good to say much, "Your baby is about the same month as Liangxiu's sister-in-law." β
Liu went to see Zhao Liangxiu's wife Wu a few days ago, she was raising a fetus on the kang and looked a lot ruddy, "Aunt Jia said that my sister-in-law is half a month older than my fetus, but the child is in a hurry to get out of the womb, and I don't know which one will come out first." β
"It's time for me to go see Liangxiu's sister-in-law, too." Lan Yi nodded, looking at Liu's slender waist and a little worried, the medical conditions for giving birth to a child in this era are too poor, it is really tantamount to walking around the ghost gate. She likes children, but she is pregnant in October, and once she gives birth, can she bear the severe pain? I heard that such a severe pain is level ten......
"My sister-in-law must be happy when she goes, and when I go, I can see her holding a book and reading it carefully." Wu is very hard now, I can't wait to become a knowledgeable person immediately, Liu admires her very much, Lan Yi has been busy these days, she didn't care about teaching them, she followed Wang Linyuan to recognize a few words, don't say and write the rules, look at her and have a headache, for this Lin Yuan did not punish her.
Thinking of how Lin Yuan punished her, Liu blushed, and hurriedly coughed while Lan Yi didn't notice it, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with your wedding dress?" β
Don't look at her sister-in-law and sister-in-law screaming all day long, in fact, Lan Yi is four years younger than her, she is just a little girl who has not married, and there are some things between husband and wife, Liu dare not tell her.
Lan Yi frowned, hung her head and didn't answer, Liu Shi grinned and comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, isn't there still eight months, how can you catch up." β
In eight months, she will marry Zhou Weiji.
Lan Yi thought that the way he looked at him today, as if there was no one around, it was like there were only the two of them left in the world, and he didn't feel embarrassed! Even Zhou Weiji said that she would let her and the child wait for him to come back today, Lan Yi didn't dare to agree, she didn't dare, his gaze covered her like a net, making her feel her heart beating faster, breathing hard, and she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.
Three days after the New Year, Lan Yi was pickling sauerkraut with Jia's at home, and Wang Chunrong and a Wang family's coachman drove a carriage to give them New Year's gifts. On the whole carriage, there were mostly clothes, food, toys prepared by Mrs. Zhou for the two children, as well as fabrics and jewelry for Lan Yi and Jia's, etc., and Zheng also prepared some exquisite dowry fabrics for Lan Yi.
Lan Yi was very happy when she saw Wang Chunrong, "Brother, why are you here so early." "New Year's gifts, generally in the month of the month will not go out, arrived a year ago. This year's leap September, although it has passed the winter solstice, it is still far from this wax month.
Wang Chunrong gave Jia's salute, hugged Wenxuan and Yu'er for a long time, "The old lady is worried about Wenxuan, and my father also said that if I drag it out any longer, I am afraid that the road will not be easy, so let me come over earlier." β
Lan Yi nodded, "The old lady and her father are okay?" We haven't had any snow here this winter, and many elderly people in the village are coughing. β
Wang Chunrong responded with a smile, "It's okay over there in Meixian, it snowed when we came out, and it wasn't small, but the warmth on the ground didn't survive." The old lady's body is getting tougher and stronger, and her father and mother are also very good, and her mother thinks about you every day, so she pulls me and my father around to prepare a dowry for you when she is free. β
Lan Yi also misses her parents very much, thinking that they are very unbearable to work for themselves, "Brother go back and tell SΓΉ Niang, I don't lack anything here." You don't have to prepare much. β
Wang Chunrong shook his head affirmatively, "This can't be done, our family is just a baby girl like you." How could the dowry be less. By the way, sister, what's going on in Huang County? When we came, a lot of soldiers with knives and guns set up cards to stop them, and they searched for it carefully, and even got under our carriage and looked at it for a long time. β
It seems that the few Xiazhou thieves who escaped in the mountains have not been caught, "A few days ago, there were water bandits in the mountains, and the yamen is sending troops to arrest them. β
"There are water bandits? Little sister should be careful. Don't go out lightly, and close the door at night. Wang Chunrong asked worriedly for a long time.
Lan Yi nodded in response, and Wang Chunrong took out a few more letters. "This is Dad's, this is Mrs. Mi's, and this is Second Master Zhang's, all for you. This is the letter that Zhao Zhongxuan asked me to bring back to him. Yu'er. Do you know where you live? Send it to his house for my uncle. β
Yu'er nodded proudly, "Of course Yu'er knows!" You can walk through it with your eyes closed. β
Lan Yi smiled: "Yu'er, go to the second grandfather's house first and give the letter to the second grandfather." No one in your third uncle's house is literate, and if you bring them over, they have to go to the second grandfather's house to find someone to help read the letter. β
I can't read and write, which is very inconvenient. Second Uncle Wang has already discussed with Zhao Lizheng about Yixue's acceptance of a girl, and Zhao Lizheng naturally has no objection, and the village has been discussing it recently. Most people are in favor of it as well.
Wang Chunrong stood up, "I'll go with you." Dad prepared a lot of things for Uncle Wang's family, I sent them over, little sister, you prepare more meals, I will invite the second uncle's family to have a meal tonight, if Wei Ji comes back in the evening, call him over. β
"Good. Brother, Brother Tuesday went into the mountains to catch bandits a few days ago and injured his arm, so you are not allowed to drag him to eat too much wine when he comes. Lan Yi knew Wang Chunrong's troublesome nature, and told him in advance.
Wang Chunrong heard that Zhou Weiji was injured, so he hurriedly cared for a few words, and then nodded regretfully and went to Second Uncle Wang's house.
Lan Yi first opened her father's letter, Wang Chengde first told her about the situation at home, and then told her to take care of Wenxuan and take care of herself, and wrote a lot of words for Zheng to let her embroider the wedding dress well, and listen to Jia's opinions. In Xia Wan's letters, most of them were discussing with her about the business shop, saying how lively the shop was, how many people, how much money she made, what ideas she had and what she always felt was wrong, and complained that Mi Yichao was worried about her and the child in her belly, and every time she went out, he always had to take time to follow the verbosity and the like, and his words were full of vitality and sweetness. Lan Yi thought that her April Begonia's face was full of shyness, and she felt very beautiful, it seemed that the estrangement between her and Mi Yichao caused by the death of her concubine was over. In Zhang Pingyu's letter, he only wrote a few simple sentences, saying that he would take time to come to Huangxian County before the end of the year to discuss the expansion of cooperation with Qingshan Shangji.
Lan Yi put down the letter with a smile, in this big week where transportation is inconvenient, the family letter is worth 10,000 gold, what can make people happier than knowing that their relatives who are far away are well.
Wang Linxi and Wang Linyuan did not come back, Second Uncle Wang took Zhao Zhongxuan's father to eat together, and Zhou Weiji also rushed back before dark. Wang Chunrong can speak well, everyone who eats a meal is happy, especially Zhao Zhongxuan's father, inquiring about what his son has done, how to eat and wear, etc., he can't close his mouth with a smile, and he doesn't need to be irrigated, so he pulls Uncle Wang to drink a lot of wine, and his legs are fluttering when he leaves.
After everyone dispersed, Wang Chunrong came to Lan Yi's side and whispered, "Little sister, our plan is done!" β
Wang Chengde didn't write much about business in his heart, Lan Yi blinked and asked in a low voice, "It's all done?" β
Wang Chunrong patted his head and smiled, "It's not all done." The shop on Silk Street was opened, and Uncle Chengtu and a group of old people worked hard to get back a lot of business. Your Qingshan fresh fruits are also selling very well and are very popular. β
Qingshan fresh fruits are selling well, Lan Yi knew about it in Xia Wan's letters, and she asked anxiously, "What about Wang Mingli?" β
Wang Chunrong smiled triumphantly, "I knew you would ask that!" There was a mess over there, Wang Tiangui and Wang Tianzhu brothers grabbed the business of the store with him, you also know that these two people are not good things, they are just some means that cannot be put on the table, tearing each other down and revealing their bottoms, making a lot of jokes. Coupled with the fact that we give him the ladder in the dark, he can be so good that he has a ghost! β
Lan Yi nodded, he probably couldn't hang up that fake face. "Brother, the more this is the case, the more you have to prevent him from jumping off the wall in a hurry, this person is not a good person."
"Don't worry, Dad arranged for someone to keep an eye on him secretly. Not only was his business chaotic, but after Tian came back, the couple had several fights against each other, and Tian caught him with a little problem and made a big fuss, not knowing what to do. β
Tian's thoughts, Lan Yi could guess some of them. This is completely dead to her husband, so I am sad to hold me, don't think about the idea of being happy, husband and wife do this part, it is also the end.
"Also, Zhao San, this kid, is really not a fool. He relied on his face in Meixian County, and after touching it a few times, he brought out the neighbor who cheated on Aunt Tian Chong last time, and Uncle Tian Chong sent him to the yamen. However, that person was Wang Mingli's brother-in-law, and he didn't suffer much when he arrived at the Yamen. β
Lan Yi nodded, Tian Daozhi, the magistrate of Meixian County, is a person, if he relies on him to handle the case impartially, it is impossible.
"This matter is not without gain, Zhang Erye secretly increased his efforts and shouted about their opening of a dark village, there are many people in Meixian who know about it, and they are all talking about it." Wang Chunrong was very excited when he said it, if it weren't for his sister being young, he really wanted to talk about the dirty things that Tian Daozhi's son of a loser had done.
Lan Yi advised: "Brother, Second Master Zhang is a cautious person, but Tian Daozhi is a scheming man, he is a parent official, and since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials, let's try not to provoke him." β
Wang Chunrong straightened his waist indifferently, quite a bit of a fox and a tiger, "What are you afraid of, just because Wei Ji is a general under the King of War, he doesn't dare to do anything to us!" Besides, next year will be the year of official transfers, and he should be transferred too. Mi Xiancheng and him fought fiercely openly and secretly, and his father said that it was not easy for him to suppress this matter, maybe he would have to lose the black yarn on his head if he was not careful. β
Lan Yi sighed, the deceit of officialdom was far more complicated than she thought, "Brother, their fight is their business, we have to be careful." β
"I know, I know, why are you becoming more and more like your father, the rambling is endless, and Wei Ji can stand you." Wang Chunrong scratched his head, "Okay, I'll go to Wei Ji's house to sleep, you can rest early." β
Lan Yi watched Wang Chunrong pull the coachman to Zhou Weiji's house with a wicked smile, and knew that he was holding back some bad ideas, but fortunately, although Wang Chunrong made some trouble, he was not a person without measure.
I don't know what he said at Zhou Weiji's house, a few days later, Wang Chunrong pulled a large cart of things prepared by Lan Yi with a red face and left satisfied, Zhou Weiji's face darkened a little.
