Chapter 36: Big Brother Comes Home
It has been three days since Yang Qiaoyue left the Yang family, and things in Nanzhuang are in full swing.
Everyone seems to have forgotten about the Yang family, and no one mentioned it again.
Lu's mood was comfortable, and his body recovered quickly, and occasionally appeared in the wasteland of the back mountain, watching Yang Qiaoyue busy back and forth.
Looking curiously at the mushrooms that had grown, she was surprised, she didn't expect that this wild delicacy could also be grown.
And growing up in a barren land like Yan County, she seems to be able to understand her daughter's confident gaze and where the confidence comes from.
Lu Shi walked to the medicine field and saw her coming, Yang Qiaoyue stopped what she was doing: "Mother, why did you come out." ”
"Sitting bored in the Zhuangzi, come out for a walk, and see what you are busy with every day." Lu Shi saw that Yang Qiaoyue's face was still covered with mud, so he helped her wipe it off.
Yang Qiaoyue and Lu Shi were inseparable, and took her hand to the side to rest affectionately: "It's okay to walk more to promote blood circulation." ”
Lu's eyes softened, and she was now very glad that she did not agree to marry her daughter two years ago because of pressure from her husband and family. Otherwise, the emotional rift between mother and daughter will be difficult to repair.
"I see that you are planting wild mountain mushrooms in the field, and they are growing really well, and there are a lot of them emerging one by one." Lu asked casually.
Yang Qiaoyue nodded, and took the Lu family into the mushroom shantytown: "Mother, good eyesight, these wild mountain mushrooms and straw mushrooms will be able to produce their first crop in ten days." Shiitake mushrooms are slower, and it takes more than two months. ”
"So fast?" Lu Shi looked surprised and asked curiously, "Do they last forever?" ”
Yang Qiaoyue smiled dumbly: "How is this possible, it's not a mushroom monster, and the general harvest will be replaced after three or four stubbles." ”
Lu Shi's cheeks flushed, she didn't understand any of this, "Daughter, where did you know so much?" No one in the family understands this. ”
Yang Qiaoyue was stunned, coughed lightly, and casually said a reason: "I've seen it in the travelogue, so I thought about trying it, but I didn't expect it, it's really lucky." ”
Everyone didn't understand, but they just nodded their heads one after another.
Mu Enen secretly thought, Qiqi's luck is really good, either picking wild ginseng, or reading this book casually, you can grow successful mushrooms.
Yang Qiaoyue didn't dwell on this topic anymore, the more she talked, the more she didn't come back, she diverted the topic: "Don't talk about this, how does my mother feel in the past two days?" ”
Lu Shi's pale cheeks regained some rosiness: "It's okay, the environment here is secluded, nothing bad, don't waste those ginseng." ”
"It's up to Eun, she said she didn't need it, then she didn't need it." Yang Qiaoyue knew that her mother was distressed by the medicinal herbs and did not respond to her words.
Mu Enen took the initiative to say: "Madame's body is indeed recovering well, but the decoction cannot be broken for the time being. ”
The Lu family couldn't resist the two children, so they could only arrange with them.
……
In the afternoon of the same day, the old lady suddenly came to Nanzhuang, although Yang Qiaoyue did not like it, she still did not lose her courtesy, invited her into the house, and did not let the Lu family come over before finding out what the old grandmother's intentions were.
The old lady was followed by a middle-aged man with a beard and a tall horse, who was Yang Qixin, the eldest house of the Yang family.
"Uncle?" Yang Qiaoyue was a little surprised when she saw someone coming.
When they came to Yan County, Yang Qixin went out and never saw him, but he didn't expect him to come back at this time.
The eldest brother should have gone out with him, and Yang Qiaoyue's flat face showed a hint of expectation: "Is my eldest brother also back?" ”
"Your eldest brother didn't come back, he went directly to the academy, and he had already sent a letter to ask him to come back two days ago." Yang Qixin pulled his face, his expression full of displeasure.
Hearing that the eldest brother did not come back, Yang Qiaoyue put away the joy on her face and returned to coldness.
As soon as Yang Qixin opened his mouth, he reproached her: "Yue'er, what's the matter with you, let my mother wait outside on such a cold day, and don't go out to pick it up!" ”
Yang Qiaoyue frowned, Yang Qi's impatient temperament has not changed at all in the past few years, and it matches Zhao's meanness.
Blessed at will: "I'm really embarrassed, I didn't know that my grandmother and uncle came over, and I missed the distance." It's just that Nanzhuang doesn't seem to have posted an invitation! ”
The implication is that you came here by yourself, and you still think I'm slacking, isn't my face too big?
Yang Qixin was stunned, this eldest niece was really the same as the family said, her personality changed greatly, she became sharp-toothed and lawless.
The old grandmother came over today to find the Lu family, knowing that Yang Qiaoyue eats soft and not hard, so she didn't let Yang Qixin speak again, and said, "Yue'er, where is your mother?" We have something to talk to her about. ”
"I've seen my grandmother." Yang Qiaoyue bowed, "My mother is not in good health now, she is resting, just tell me if there is anything." ”
"Yang Qiaoyue, you talked to your grandmother like this? The fourth brother can't control you, and I, who is an uncle, am too arrogant and domineering. As a woman, you should be gentle and frugal, what are you like, buying a village and fighting, and surrogate your mother and father, making a fuss in the family. ”
As soon as Yang Qixin entered the house, he saw that Yang Qiaoyue was unhappy, put on the momentum of an elder, and reprimanded him sharply.
The old grandmother also understands Yang Qiaoyue's current temperament, and when she heard Yang Qixin's words, her heart sank, and it was too late to stop it.
Yang Qiaoyue sneered: "What am I like, my mother has never accused, what qualifications do you have." This is Nanzhuang, not the Yang family, please, I still have to go to the ground to do things, and I don't have time to entertain! ”
Yang Qixin was scolded, and he saw what everyone said about Yang Qiaoyue, and he was impatient and wanted to step forward to do it.
Seeing this, Guan Zeng's brother and sister Mu Enen, who had been guarding the door, immediately rushed in with a wooden stick and blocked the front.
"Miss!"
"Qiqi, it's okay."
"It's fine." Yang Qiaoyue's heart was warm.
Yang Qixin's eyes widened angrily: "What? You're going to beat your grandmother and uncle! ”
Yang Qiaoyue asked Guan Zeng and them to retreat, they couldn't afford the crime of unfilial piety.
"Uncle, do you want my sister to be punished for unfilial piety!" A crisp, gentle voice came from outside the door.
A young man who looked like a scholar walked in, with white cheeks, tall and thin, and long hair tied in locks.
Everyone looked over, Yang Qiaoyue's originally indifferent expression immediately showed a smile, and the eldest brother came back.
The person who came was Yang Chengdong, the eldest son of the fourth house.
When this eldest brother was a child, he often forced her to learn to read and practice calligraphy, and always told her that women should have both ability and political integrity, read more, and not let people underestimate them.
Almost all the ink in her stomach was stuffed into her head by this eldest brother-in-law, there are so many children in the Yang family, only the eldest brother has the most hope of entering the official career through the scientific examination, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the hope of the whole family.
Therefore, his right to speak at home is very heavy, even Yang Qixin will not pose in front of him, and his grandmother loves him very much.
"Dong'er, when did you come back?" The old grandmother asked with concern.
Yang Chengdong saluted his grandmother: "I've seen my grandmother, and my grandmother is healthy." I received a letter from home and rushed all the way back, and I just arrived this morning. ”
As he spoke, he bowed his hand to Yang Qixin, "The eldest uncle is also here, don't say that kind of thing just now, except for slandering and slandering your family, it's meaningless." ”
Yang Chengdong looked embarrassed, facing the eldest nephew of this clerk, he didn't want to offend too much, first, he was the eldest son of the fourth house, and secondly, he was the person with the best chance of entering the career of the Yang family, and he would have to rely on him to support him in the future.
I had to nod and answer: "It's the eldest uncle who owes it to consideration." ”
"How did Dong'er find Nanzhuang, have you seen your father?" When the grandmother saw her eldest grandson, her brow furrowed.
Yang Chengdong replied: "I've seen it, so I rushed over." ”
As he spoke, he walked to Yang Qiaoyue's side, glanced at the hairpin in her hand, and looked helpless, still the familiar sister, and said in a low voice: "Put it away." ”
Yang Qiaoyue put away the hairpin stupidly, if Yang Qixin dared to do it just now, she would really fight back......
"Grandmother, tell me what you want, I tell my mother that she is really unwell now." Yang Qiaoyue said lightly.
The old grandmother saw that Yang Chengdong had no objection, this child has always been polite and sensible, and if she doesn't object, she agrees with Yang Qiaoyue's words.
had to prevaricate the superficial things: "The New Year is approaching, and the family wants to discuss the New Year's gifts with her." ”
