Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Arrival of Su Xiu'er
Taking advantage of the heavy rain, Ji Laosan also secretly went to the mountains.
He has always been relieved that he will not be in the business of Noku, although there are fewer and fewer people in the city to buy, but if someone buys, it is also an entry.
And it's still a lot of money.
It's a pity that he went to the mountains and found that due to the heavy rain in the past two days, a lot of wild trees have been beaten down.
A lot of them rotted due to the heavy rain and heat, and even if they came to pick them later, they couldn't pick a few good ones.
After he went back, he told Mrs. Ji about it, and Mrs. Ji sneered:
"Good thing! At least no one can take advantage of it. ”
Knowing that the wild canopy was rotten, the people of the Ji family felt comfortable, and they no longer thought about picking dates, but began to cultivate them intently.
During this period, Ji Laosan went to Lin'an County, bought a lot of seeds, and came back, ready to plant on the reclaimed land.
The people of the Ma family are always paying attention to the situation here.
The people in their family are not diligent in planting crops and doing work, but they can be very diligent when they want to pay attention to which people have things.
I watched around Ji's house for several days, but found that there was no movement at all in their house except for reclamation.
No matter how big the ambition is, they are also dissuaded, and they are lazy.
After noticing that the people of the Ma family were gone, the people of the Ji family were even more relaxed, and they were also willing to take the cattle out, and the speed of reclamation became faster and faster, and people could be much easier.
In just five or six days, all the seeds were planted.
Because of the rain, everyone estimated that God would warm up, and it would be much easier to grow crops at that time.
So everyone was busy planting their own land at this time, and they didn't have time to come to the village to hang out.
Because there was a cow at home, Ye Qiuyun did not go to the ground, but took his daughter and children to hunt cow grass.
Their house was next to the river, where grass grew the most.
On this day, Ye Qiuyun was taking his children to hunt cow grass, but suddenly found that a family seemed to come on the other side of the river.
They came here almost every day to gather grass, but they didn't notice when there were people, but today, they suddenly saw a man washing clothes on the opposite side, and it seemed to be a girl.
This small river was not wide, and Ji Miaomiao was surprised to find that the woman who washed her clothes seemed to be the woman they saw outside the city gate begging for permission from the officers and soldiers outside the city gate that day.
At that time, she said that her father was dying, and she didn't know what was going on.
Ji Miaomiao looked at her wearing plain white clothes, and she also had some guesses in her heart.
Ye Qiuyun didn't pay attention to the city gate at that time, and she didn't see it very clearly, so she didn't know that they had a relationship, she was just surprised that someone actually came to the end of the village.
At this time, the woman on the other side of the river did not grasp her clothes steadily, and was carried by the water to the other side.
She was in a hurry to catch it, but she almost fell into the water.
Ye Qiuyun was startled, and hurriedly stopped her behavior, and then walked to the river by herself, squatted down carefully, and helped her pull her clothes.
The woman was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes and said gratefully:
"Thank you for your help."
Ye Qiuyun realized that the woman opposite was extremely delicate.
She smiled, "You're welcome, it's just a matter of raising your hands, you really scared me a little just now, if you fall into the water, what if you do?" ”
The woman pursed her lips, seemingly apologetic.
Ye Qiuyun grabbed the clothes in her hand, but she couldn't hand them over, she looked around, and found that there was an arch bridge not far in front of her that could pass, so she couldn't help but propose:
"It's not easy to hand over these clothes here, why don't I go up to the arch bridge and hand my sister the clothes?"
The woman's eyes showed gratitude, "It's really troublesome sister." ”
Ye Qiuyun naturally said no.
The two walked towards the arched bridge at the same time, and after a while, they walked to the arch bridge, and Ye Qiuyun handed the clothes to the woman.
The woman bowed with a blessed body, Ye Qiuyun couldn't stand such a big gift, and immediately wanted to help her up.
But she seemed to have some discomfort in her body, and with the power of Ye Qiuyun to support her, she actually fainted.
Ye Qiuyun was startled, but she couldn't support her, so she could only try not to hit the ground, and she had to worry about whether she bumped into the girl in her arms.
She could only shout at the children mowing the grass on the shore, Ji Shiliang heard his mother's voice, and hurriedly rushed to the arch bridge.
"Mother, who is this?"
Ji Shiliang tilted his head, very curious about the person his mother was supporting.
This aunt is pretty good-looking, but I don't know it, and I haven't seen it at all.
"Shiliang, go and call your father."
Now is not the time to explain, Ji Shiliang nodded heavily when he heard this, and quickly ran home, and it didn't take long for Ji Laosan to come over.
"Qiuyun, what is this?"
Ji Liangqing was also stunned when he came.
Ye Qiuyun couldn't explain to him here, so he had to say,
"It's a long story, I'll tell you later, now that the person has fainted, let's take her to our house first."
Ji Liangqing could only nod and carried the woman back home.
Seeing that the third child came back with a woman on his back, the family was a little surprised, but fortunately, Ye Qiuyun explained it, and the family understood the ins and outs.
Mrs. Ji still disagreed,
"This unknown person should still pay attention in the future, if he carries back a bad person, how can it be good?"
Ye Qiuyun lowered his head and said yes in shame, but now that everyone has carried it back, it is useless to say this.
Listening to the woman muttering about water, Ye Qiuyun served her and drank water again.
There was no Lang Zhong here, and they didn't know what the reason for the woman fainted, but fortunately, she woke up a little later.
Seeing this strange place, the woman was a little flustered, but fortunately, Ye Qiuyun, who was guarding next to her, told her that she had brought her to their house, and the woman was even more grateful at the moment.
It was the first time she had received such kind treatment since she fled the famine, and she was in tears.
Maybe there were too many things in her heart, but seeing Ye Qiuyun's eyes full of kindness, she said a lot about her situation uncontrollably.
It turned out that this woman's name was Su Xiu'er, the daughter of Xiucai, and her father was a well-known private school teacher in the town.
But after the famine years came, he had to sell his family property to flee the famine, but he contracted a disease on the way, and was injured in the heart because of the competition with others for food.
Her father was the only one of his daughters, and she had no brothers to help her, and she had only learned how to read, not how to make a living.
Stumbled over here, but her father was seriously ill, and after serving her father away, she found an abandoned house at the end of the village physically and mentally exhausted, and then fainted from laundry, and met Ye Qiuyun.
Hearing this, Ye Qiuyun was full of emotion, but Ji Miaomiao's eyes lit up.
Xiucai's daughter, can read? Isn't that just literacy?
