It's only August now, and the night on the mountain is not cold, Li Qiusui has specially prepared medicine, so snakes, insects, rats and ants don't have to worry.

Liu Chong led the rhubarb and a few puppies, and when he went up the mountain, he could hear the dogs barking on the other side of the mountain at home, which was really reassuring.

Giving a gift to the Zheng family, just sending a few fruits to the past, showing deliberateness, fell behind.

The dates in the yard can be picked, and this year there are a lot of fruits, and the taste is good.

Li Changlei brought a slender bamboo pole, and under the tree, Liu spread an oiled paper cloth, and then turned the umbrella at home upside down and began to beat dates.

The jujubes that were beaten down were crisp and sweet, and two baskets were prepared for the Zheng family, so they could eat them now, or they would dry them and eat them.

There are a lot of mountain treasures at home, and people in the city rarely have this thing. There is also a flower dew that Zheng Yan specially wrote to ask for...... This was concocted by Li Qiusui.

Zheng Yan sent some small things from time to time, and Li Qiusui would also send some good things back. For example, the medicine bag for mosquito repellent and the fragrant flower dew, there are fewer mosquitoes in August, Zheng Yan likes the flower dew very much, so she wrote a letter.

A few baskets of things, loaded with a large cart, can be handled. On the other side of the mountain, Zhao Daneng got out of his body and led people to the mansion city by him.

On the side of Fucheng, Zhao Da came early and arrived at Zheng's house after a while.

The little guy guarding the door of the Zheng family recognized it as Zhao Da, and hurriedly asked people to go to the chief housekeeper Zheng Fu, while inviting someone to sit in the gatehouse for a while.

personally poured a cup of tea and said, "You have worked hard all the way!" Yesterday, I heard the big housekeeper chatter, saying that it was August and a half, and Mrs. explained that she was going to Lijia Village to send a festival gift, and you will come to the door! Is Miss Li okay? ”

I still want to rush back to Lijia Village in the next morning, but the mule cart is not as good as the horse-drawn carriage, so I have to hurry up, and I don't care about drinking water. Zhao Da came to Zheng's house a few times, and he was not restrained, took the teacup, and drank it all.

"The girl is well! When you came, you also asked me to ask the masters of the Zheng family, are they all okay? ”

"Good! The masters of the family are good! ”

The two exchanged pleasantries, but after three or two sentences, Zheng Fu came in a hurry, and shouted "Brother Zhao" before he got close!

Zhao Da put the teacup on the table, got up, arched his hands and said, "Don't dare to be a big housekeeper"!

While taking out the gift list from his bosom and handing it over, "The fruit of the family has been harvested, and the girl sent the villain to send some to your house, so it should be a taste!" ”

Zheng Fu took the gift list and invited the person inside, "Miss Li has a heart, these days, although there are letters and exchanges, Mrs. still has a lot of chatter!" You better follow me to Madame and talk back! ”

"It's time to kowtow to Madame!"

Zhao Da didn't dare to delay in Zheng's house for long, so he hurried and hurried back to Lijia Village, and it was dark.

After unloading the Zheng family's return gift from the car, Li Qiusui looked at him with a tired face, "If you have something to say tomorrow, you go to wash first, eat dinner, and rest early!" ”

Zhao Da was really tired, and he went to Dongcheng to see the courtyard, left and right are not important, and it will be the same tomorrow.

The next day, Li Qiusui had breakfast, and Zhao Da was already waiting for a reply.

"Girl, Zheng Xiaogongzi went to the capital to study after half of August, and when I left, he came over to ask a lot of questions, and also sent a few books, saying that it was specially for our fourth son! I looked through it, and it was all books like the imperial examination, and I brought it back with me! ”

Li Qiusui nodded.

When she left, Zheng Ying said that she was going to study in the capital, and Zheng Yan said this in her letter. When the person has already gone to the capital, it turns out that it will be half August!

As for sending Li Changan's books, it's not the first time. The Zheng family is a veritable scholarly family, and they don't expect people to send a single book or a genuine handiwork, which is a manuscript, where should they get it?

Li Changan said that he was going to end next year, and he himself was talented and intelligent, and the books sent by the Zheng family helped a lot. Especially when Li Qiusui went home, Zheng Ying personally copied the notes of the elders who were admitted to the Jinshi at home.

Li Qiusui knew the value of this thing, Zheng Ying took it, she didn't refuse, this thing is not something that can be bought for a lot of money. The fourth brother was born in a peasant family, and if he wants to take the imperial examination, even if he has some talent, it is also difficult, and those books can add some confidence to him.

She has lived in the Zheng family for two years, not to mention Zheng Ying, even Zheng Bin, who is not in tune, and she has only opened her mouth to give enlightenment. can go to Songyun Academy, even if his family background has an advantage, I heard that he will also have to take an exam when he enters, and if he is a straw bag, people will not accept him into the door.

"When my little fourth brother comes back, you can hand over the book to him!"

Since people gave it, Li Qiusui would not pretend to be a gesture and say something like not accepting it. Friendship is made up, the things ahead are not mentioned, the Zheng family has something, and they will not ignore it if they can do it.

As for the fruit, what is the reaction of the Zheng family?

Zhao Da didn't care about sending people over, he was in a hurry to go back to Lijia Village. As Li Qiusui said, eggs can't be put in one basket, and the members and vendors surnamed Hu don't know about the long character of the fruit. Give them some ordinary fruits first, twenty dollars is not a small amount, and a pound of meat is worth twenty dollars!

It will take a few days for the house to be put on the beam, and the fruits here are ripening one after another.

Li Sanzhu called the old man, and after discussing, he didn't plan to ask the villagers to help pick the fruit. own family, as well as Zhao Da and Zhou Ping, no matter how bad they are, there are girls like Cuiping.

Li Qiusui specially thought of a way to use bamboo poles and cloth bags to make many fruit-picking artifacts.

On the day when the fruit picking began, the Zhang family brought Li Xiu'er over to help, and Li Xiu'er could die of grievance!

Li Qiusui, a dead girl, can read a few words, can memorize two books, and asks her this and that when she meets. I remember the last time, she could barely recite half of the "Three Character Classic", and when this girl met, she didn't let her recite it, and asked about the general idea! How did she know what the gist was?

God knows, to be able to recite it, she has to work hard with her old nose! What does it mean? What's the matter with her, she doesn't have to go to the scientific expedition. It's just that her mother is like Li Qiusui's mother, and she takes everything people say seriously.

Listen, I'm praising Li Qiusui with the third aunt there!

The Zhang family brought Li Xiu'er over and threw it at Li Qiusui, she didn't care, and was busy talking to the Liu family!

"Years old is smart, look at this thing that is drummed out, picking fruits, how easy it is, but it saves our old nose energy! Third brother and sister, you say, this child who has read is smart and sensible, and he can make people more and more quiet! Look at my family Xiuxiu, how noisy it used to be, no matter what my mother and I said, she couldn't listen to it! Now that I've read some books, I feel more and more like a girl's family! ”

Liu Shixin said, is your daughter Wenjing? I'm going to die of grievances!

It's all a good thing done by my little girl!

Liu Shi smiled and said: "After reading a few books, I like to toss blindly, but now I have a big idea, just toss me and her father!" It's still our family's Xiuxiu, when I was a child, I still want you to talk to my mother, but now that I have read books, I am more and more well-behaved and obedient! ”

Liu did not deny the benefits of reading, in fact, now, if Li Qiusui has any ideas, she will automatically attribute it to reading.

Li Xiuer pursed her lips aggrievedly, the third aunt is my mother!
