Liu Sanniang said that she wanted to rest, but she woke up early the next morning, Gan Da took San Lang Shilang to go out, Liu Sanniang chased after her, the two shoulders were still tender, and she called less.

Gan Da should be good, but he turned around and said to Saburo Shiro, "Since you have left the school, you have to be an adult, you can't be an adult, and you can't treat yourself as a child anymore, and you can't be coquettish." ”

"Got it, uncle." "We are ready, and we will never complain." "As for the performance of the two people who were in high spirits and played with their lives when they arrived in the mountains, their shoulders were broken, their hands were also broken, and they described their miserable homecoming, and Gan Da was beaten by Liu Sanniang, then that's another story.

Zou Xiaoxi also has to get up early, she packed up the things she wanted to take to the city yesterday, she got up early to fetch water to clean the wild fruits she brought back yesterday, first classify the wild fruits, mountain apples don't need to be dried fruits, don't need to wash, they can't be washed and will be broken, hawthorn is to be washed, and mountain pears, August melons, and jujube can't be washed to see how to get them.

Zou Xiaoxi went to ask Liu Sanniang, and Liu Sanniang said, "Some of the mountain apples and jujubes are not washed, just eat fresh ones in the past few days, and the rest are washed, and the jujubes are dried and soaked in wine, by the way, you can send some jujubes to Dr. Zhou by the way today, he has this over there, and today's chestnuts will also be sent to his in-laws' house, so he said that Xiaowen picked them up in the mountains and sent them back to be filial to Grandma Weng." ”

"Slice the mountain apples, dry them, wash the pears and cut them into pieces, put them together with rock sugar wine to make fruit wine, and put them in the New Year just to drink, and the August melon will dig out the inner capsule, and I will make a jam for Eleven Sweet Mouth." Liu Sanniang said, "You only soak these things in water, I will deal with them myself, and by the way, I will teach Xiaowen and Yanwan." ”

"If you come back today and go to the winery to buy an urn of wine, I'm worried that it won't be enough." Liu Sanniang said.

"Okay." Zou Xiaoxi said, "The pickles on the last time sold very well, should we take advantage of this time to make some more vegetables." ”

"Now the vegetables are already the last crops, and when it is winter and there are no vegetables to sell, what do you sell?" Liu Sanniang is worried about another stubble.

"There are few vegetables in winter, so it's good to come out of the meat stall every once in a while." Zou Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

"Clean up the cellar, and if you can save a little longer, you can sell it for more money." Liu Sanniang said.

Zhou Qu's account came out, and in the end it was a number that made Zhou Lang thunderous, and he thought that this matter was attributed to him, so as not to alarm the nurse, but in the end, Zhou Lang's forehead was bruised, and he went to copy Zhou Qu's home, and all the family property was confiscated, the nurse was originally an old lady at home, and this person was stunned as soon as he came to the door, and then I heard that it was sent by the master, and I didn't believe it, so I ran to Zhou's house to ask why, Zhou Lang said that Zhou Qu was greedy for him more than 100,000 taels, that is, the court official, greedy This number is enough to raid the house and destroy the door, if he doesn't do anything at all, Everyone below thinks he's a fool.

"More than 100,000 taels?" The nurse was also stunned. "No, Da Lang, Zhou Qu doesn't have the guts, he can't be so greedy."

"It's calculated in black and white, and I still slander him?" Zhou Lang said, "Because he is my brother, I trust him very much, and I have never doubted him, and he reciprocated my trust in this way." ”

"Da Lang, what will you do with him?" The nurse asked.

"If you make up for the deficit in his family property, I won't send him to the Yamen, but don't want to stay in the Zhou Mansion in the future." Zhou Lang said.

"Da Lang, you took all his money away and didn't give him a way out, what should he do? He still has a small family to support, how can he live in the future. The nurse cried and said, "Da Lang has a good heart, he is not angry, I didn't teach him well, and the family doesn't worry about food and clothing, I just think it's all you give me, where do you know that he is greedy." ”

Zhou Lang looked at her angrily, "What I give you every year is enough for you to eat and wear, eat and drink." These are all Zhou Qu's extra greed, he dug my corner, I don't send the official is already a great mercy, you still want me to find a way to live for him? I gave him a way to live, he went to a dead end, I care about him for a while, can I care about him for a lifetime? ”

"Da Lang, Da Lang, you are a capable person, more than 100,000 taels for you, it can only be earned in three or two years, Zhou Qu is a person who has no ability, he has not succeeded, Da Lang often says that he treats him as a brother, he really regards himself as a brother of Da Lang, and his behavior is out of proportion, in the future, in the future, he will only do things for Da Lang, not for Da Lang, when it comes to loyalty, no one can match him." The nurse cried and begged.

Seeing that Zhou Lang's face was still ugly, and she didn't let go, she choked up, "It's all my fault that I didn't teach him well, let me die and make amends to the master for him." After saying that, I fainted.

Zhou Lang hurriedly asked the doctor to come and see, Yuan Xinqiao heard the news and saw Zhou Lang feel distressed, and couldn't help admiring the nurse's improvisation, she asked the doctor how the nurse's health was, and asked the maid to serve well, and asked the account room to get ginseng to make tea for the nurse to replenish the qi.

"Mama was just angry for a while, and her anger hurt her body." Yuan Xinqiao persuaded Zhou Lang, "It's no big deal to rest well, and you don't need to worry too much." ”

"The nurse raised me, but I can't do what she wants, it's mine." Zhou Lang said reproachfully.

"Although more than 100,000 taels is much, but there are not so many, the master should be filial to his grandmother, don't worry about it like the big housekeeper." Yuan Xinqiao persuaded.

Zhou Lang looked at her, "Mrs. is so big, more than 100,000 taels is not so much?" ”

"Then what is the master going to do? Mama's illness was caused by the big housekeeper, and the master refused to do it lightly, so Mama couldn't get better, and the old man was distressed. Yuan Xinqiao said, "The master should spend money to buy peace of mind, and he didn't get it for two years." ”

"I'm not ready to send him to the official, and I'm not prepared to do anything to him, return the money, and don't be an eyesore in front of me in the future, is it too much to deal with it? Even a saint would not be so merciful. Zhou Lang said, "In the end, it seems that I was wrong." ”

"It's not that the old man is wrong, it's that the old man is soft-hearted and cares about his grandmother." Yuan Xinqiao said.

"I'm soft-hearted and I'm just going to be pinched, right?" Zhou Lang said, "This matter is that Zhou Qu can't stand me, I don't dig into it to give the nurse face, if the nurse still holds on, it won't hurt me for half a minute." ”

"The nurse naturally feels sorry for the master." Yuan Xinqiao said, "After all, he is also a child with a big milk, but there is flesh and blood over there, and the palms and backs of the nurse's hands are meat." ”

Zhou Lang kept a calm face and didn't speak, how does the big baby compare with his own child? Yuan Xinqiao said as if unintentionally, "This matter is not easy to persuade the master, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that the master has done his best, but the nurse is worried about the livelihood of the big housekeeper in the future, and she will not give up." ”

"Doesn't the nurse still have a daughter, married in Jiangyang City, and the husband is still personally chosen by the master, so it's much better for her to persuade her." Yuan Xinqiao said, but she didn't know that when she was pregnant with Zhou Xingfeng, the nurse still wanted to send her daughter to the master's bed, but fortunately, the master could carry it clearly, and after noticing the meaning of the nurse, she promised her daughter someone to marry in a beautiful way.

If she knew, she would not have persuaded him to do so, and let his family die. also gave her an idea, let the nurse give up Zhou Qu, protect Zhou Mei, and make up for Zhou Qu in the future, if it doesn't care about the noise and annoys Zhou Lang, then the family will not be happy.

Zhou Mei heard that the eldest brother was greedy for so much money and his hands and feet were weak, but her mother was lying on the bed and pretending to be sick, and she was willing to give up only if the master arranged for Zhou Qu for the rest of her life, Zhou Mei said, "Mother, you do this, when the master is completely tired of it, our family will really have no way to live." ”

"And what about your eldest brother? He has been the big housekeeper of the Zhou family for so many years, and he won't do anything else, if he goes out, how can he live? The family's money was also taken back by the master. The nurse cried, "What will happen to your nephews and nieces in the future?" ”

"Mother, as long as you are here, the master will not ignore you, and the money you will be given every year is enough to support the eldest brother's family." Zhou Mei said, "The eldest brother is useless, isn't there a nephew below, and when she is old enough to listen to errands, the nurse will ask the master and enter the Zhou family, isn't it the same." ”

The nurse hesitated, can this be the same? Your eldest brother only had such a blessing when he grew up with the master, and the rest of the people didn't get along for so long, how could they have affection.

"The eldest brother is no longer in the Zhou family, mother, you will go back to the Zhou family to live, and when the time comes, take your nephew with you and let him play with the second young master, and you will come out while playing." Zhou Mei suggested. The nephew originally said that he would send it to the eldest young master, but somehow clumsily broke the inkstone of the eldest young master and sent it back, but the second young master is different, I heard that the second young master has an old personality, he doesn't like to call people, and he won't bully people, so let the nephew go to the second young master to brush his face, it's the same.
