After Ruiwen returned to Lijia Village, he lived in the East Courtyard, which reminded him of the pair of fathers and mothers who were far away in the capital.

The peak of this longing was a carload of gifts that Li Dashan transported back from Fucheng, which was sent back by Zhao Yunlan from the capital in those years. Zhao Yunlan only entrusted Teng Ma Dart to the mansion in Fucheng, so that the things left in Fucheng did not have to run back and forth.

Li Dashan came to Fucheng to deliver the goods this time, and just sent these New Year's gifts back to Lijia Village.

"Brother Dashan, my sister-in-law's letter said that you will take someone to the capital after the New Year and run this road." Li Mingyi said.

Li Dashan: "I just had this intention, but I didn't expect Yunlan's brother-in-law to have this idea." ”

Li Mingyi: "Well, this is the letter, you see, there is also a road map of their previous trip to the capital." ”

Li Dashan laughed: "It's still the owner's thoughtfulness." Generally, when Li Dashan called Zhao Yunlan's owner, he was expressing his admiration for Zhao Yunlan.

"Then I'll go back first." Li Dashan said goodbye and left with two car salutes.

Lijia Village, today is the day when the school and ancestral hall were suspended before the year, and the men who went to work settled the last salary of the year before and went home with a smile.

"Ruiwen, you are not allowed to run up the mountain tomorrow!" Wang was patting the dirt on Ruiwen's buttocks, and the more he patted him, the more he felt that the child was pleasing to him, so he slapped him twice harder.

"Grandmother, let go of me, I won't go to the mountains."

Wang let go of Ruiwen, and the kid ran out again. Wang had to shake his head helplessly, children at this age are really disgusted with cats and dogs.

Last night, Xiao Ruiwen was still nestled in his arms and said that he missed his father and mother, and he didn't even have time to eat breakfast this morning, so he went up the mountain with the children in the village.

The next day, Li Dashan drove two full ox carts from the entrance of the village to Li's house.

After Li Zhongyou reported it, the Wang family felt a lot more at ease, and after so much time, there was finally news of the capital.

"What about the summer? Let him go and call the young master back. ”

Li Zhongyou: "The villain had already ordered him to go when he received the gift." ”

Wang nodded, and followed Li Zhongyou to the front yard. Everyone in the Li family arrived, and even the milk doll who couldn't speak was hugged by Wu Yi.

The people were still carrying gifts, and they heard Raven rushing in crying outside.

"Wow~ah~ Woo, where's my mother?"

Wang looked at the little clay figurine-like child, and he couldn't bear to blame himself for even crying bells and whistles.

"Come, grandmother."

Li Zhongyou asked Xia Xiang next to him, "What did you tell the young master?" ”

Xia Xiang: "I just said that they were sent back from the capital. It's just that before the little words were finished, the young master hurried home after hearing the word madam. ”

After hearing this, Wang had to smile: "Your mother hasn't come back yet, she has to accompany your father in the capital to participate in the examination." This is your mother, they sent some things back, and wrote a letter to our Ruiwen. ”

has aroused the desire to find his mother, but Ruiwen just couldn't listen to the words, crying and shouting to find his mother and go to the capital.

The Wang family couldn't hold the child anymore, but Li Mingli stepped forward and picked up Ruiwen and restrained the noisy child.

"Ruiwen, you heard from the third uncle that when your father is admitted to the Jinshi, they will come back at that time, you are obediently at home, let's write a letter to the two of them and send it to the capital when the time comes." Li Mingli didn't know if he could get it or if he could come back, anyway, he just pacified Ruiwen first.

Ruiwen didn't listen to Li Mingli's words and quieted down, but because he was held by Li Mingli and couldn't move, he had to be quiet.

Xiao Ruiwen sobbed and wiped his tears in Li Mingli's arms, and said, "What did my mother send me back?" ”

Li Mingli: "Then you can't make any more trouble, I'll let you down and we'll watch it with your grandfather and grandmother." ”

"Hmm!"

Wang took Ruiwen again and said: "This little box was prepared for you by your mother, and this is for your grandfather's family, you go and open it to see what is in your box?" ”

Ruiwen let go of Wang's hand and ran over, helping Ruiwen open the box together.

"Hahaha, there's a rabbit lantern, and what's this? It's a small toy, and my mother has prepared a new set of clothes for me. Rui Wen counted them one by one, and was distracted by those new things in the capital at this moment, and smirked vigorously.

Seeing that Ruiwen was fine, Wang began to count other things, "Third brother, this box was given to your in-laws by your eldest brother and sister-in-law, and you can take it to them when it is empty." ”

Li Mingli: "Okay. ”

"Hahaha, what do you think of me?" Old man Li was wearing the fur bought by Zhao Yunlan and was white in front of everyone.

"You take it off first, look at your whole body is full of dirt, don't get this hair dirty."

"This is what our daughter-in-law bought, I won't take it off."

Wang couldn't help it, holding the fur collar in his hand, he was also overjoyed.

Zhao Yunlan chose a fur collar for the female dependents in the family, which was made of fox fur, which was very comfortable.

"The rouge in this capital is really good." Li Mingmei took the rouge and discussed it with Wu Yi, and the two of them also liked it.

"Okay, let's take these things back, and I'll go to the main courtyard in a while to listen to what your eldest brother and sister-in-law said, I see that there are some arrangements."

"Okay, mother." Everyone scattered, Ruiwen listened to Xin'er, and at this time the feelings of longing were brought up again, but this time he didn't howl again, just ordered Xia Xiang to move things to the east courtyard, and he took Wang's hand and went to the main courtyard.

A quarter of an hour later, the Li family all sat down in the hall of the main courtyard. Wang didn't procrastinate: "Your sister-in-law said that the matter of pepper may not be fruitful, there are too many disputes in the capital, and our family does not dare to participate." ”

The Li family was a little disappointed, after all, Governor Liu had promised that the imperial court would reward him, but now because of the struggle of those above, he said no.

"Okay, don't think about it, we can be regarded as making a lot of money with peppers now, and this Jinzhou City is still the manager of Liu's prefect for the time being, so we don't have to worry too much for the time being. Third, next year's pepper, your sister-in-law said that she would expand the planting, and your eldest brother's share can still buy some land. ”

Li Mingli nodded and responded to the matter.

Wang continued: "After the year, Yunlan asked Dashan to go to the capital, and I think that the third child will follow your Dashan brother when the time comes." Bring something for your eldest brother and sister-in-law. ”

Li Mingli didn't speak, lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, the third child raised his head and responded: "Okay, then I'll arrange the pepper, and then let my father help take care of the school here." ”

Wang glanced at Old Man Li and said, "Your village chief and uncle understand, and your sister-in-law has also explained the follow-up school, the family only needs to send someone to deal with the general affairs of the school, and the teaching is the responsibility of Mr. Xuetang himself." ”

Li Mingming asked, "When is that gentleman coming?" ”

Wang: "I said I would come back in the next year." This school has not been built, where do people live? There is also the fourth child, let Zheng Tian follow you when you go to Fucheng in the future. ”

Li Mingming: "Got it. ”

Wang continued: "That's all for now, your sister-in-law is far away in the capital and has to worry about family affairs, hey~ Third child, don't hang out these days, get busy when you should be busy, and the New Year will be in a few days."

Fourth, although you will only try it next year, you have to work hard, don't waste time. ”

Mingli responded wisely and obediently, and the Wang family didn't have anything to say, and the family sat for a while and then dispersed.
