Chapter 695: She Can Cook
The eldest boy is called Xiaoliu, formerly known as Liu Xiaoliu.
He still remembered where he was, but Su Yixin asked him if he wanted to go back, and Xiaoliu shook his head and said he didn't want to go back.
When I asked, I found out that his father and mother had a total of eight children, and he was the sixth, so he named him Xiaoliu, the first five were all elder brothers, he was also a boy, the seventh was still a boy, and he gave birth to a daughter until the eighth.
In this era, male babies are expensive, but they have more children and are poor, and that's it.
The poor family can't open the pot, so they can only sell the sixth and seventh to the people's teeth, and the younger brother of the sixth, the younger brother of the sixth, the seventh, is one year younger than him, and has just sold the teeth, because the older ones are more upright than the sixth, and it didn't take long for them to be bought by a family.
In this way he was separated from his brother.
Xiao Liu was displaced, and was finally bought by the steward of this juggling troupe, he thought that as long as he worked hard, he would definitely be able to eat enough.
But as long as the steward makes money, he gambles.
After losing, let them sell miserably, they have not learned other skills, only the ability to cheat money, using their children's identities to cheat well-wishers.
This is basically the case with the other four.
There are many children in the family, and they can't open the pot.
They are the least popular at home, so they are sold.
In this case, even if Su Yixin can roughly calculate where their home is based on the appearance of the children, it is inconvenient to send people back.
After asking about the situation, Wang's mother arranged the house first and let the child rest.
"Qiu, you go to the yamen and get the deeds of these children right."
"Madame wants to keep them?"
Su Yixin nodded: "These are good children, Xiaoxiao is now one year old, but she can play with her." ”
Why did the steward hit the child?
It must be that the child refuses to cooperate.
At such a young age, it is not easy to do this part.
The county government was not embarrassed.
I came back from the county government just after dark.
On the second day, Su Yixin's five children were renamed again, Xiao Liu was called Su Hui, the other two boys were named Su You and Su Ming, and the other two girls were named Su Qiao and Su Ying.
These five children have reached the time of enlightenment.
After thinking about it, Su Yixin still decided to invite a teacher to teach at home.
After having this plan, she asked Wang's mother to take charge of it, tidy up the vacant yard in the front yard, and make it their school.
As for this teaching gentleman, it is not necessary to invite any famous Confucians, as long as he can teach them to read and learn words, and to know books and reason.
Su Yixin asked Qiu Qiu to inquire.
There is a person who is very suitable.
It's just that his temper is a little stinky, and listening to Ji Qiu's description, he should be a little self-conscious, so a powerful man like Su Yixin, this master will most likely not agree.
Su Yixin decided to come to the door in person.
Not far away, the place where they had watched juggling the other day, a quarter of an hour later.
Su Yixin deliberately wore gold and silver, and she was dressed very luxuriously.
Ji Qiu looked puzzled: "Madam, I heard that this Master Duan doesn't like the powerful in the first place, doesn't you dislike it even more when you dress up like this?" ”
"I have my own way."
Although she wears gold and silver, Su Yixin's clothes are still lightweight.
When he went out, Qiu Qiu was carrying a large bag of things, Su Yixin looked back, and said to Qiu Qiu: "Just take this thing, put the rest back, don't follow, I'll just go." ”
"Madam, slave ......"
Looking at Qiuqiu's worried eyes, Su Yixin said: "What, I'm afraid that I'm bullying people, don't worry, I have a trick to deal with people with this kind of temperament." ”
"Woman, take me."
With a sigh of relief, he jumped onto the horse.
Su Yixin didn't say anything, put the gift into the storage bag, turned over on the horse, and soon disappeared into the street corner.
If you ride a horse, you can reach the place in less than a quarter of an hour.
Su Yixin tied the horse under the big tree opposite, and found Mr. Duan's house according to the information provided by Qiuqiu.
The house can't be said to be broken, but it's really old.
You can see the situation in the courtyard through the crack in the door.
Su Yixin raised her hand and knocked on the door.
The woman who was sweeping in the courtyard hurriedly put down the broom in her hand and went to open the door.
Seeing a bejeweled young woman standing at the door, looking at the jewels, she felt that she was not cheesy, and her bearing was better than the nobles in the palace she had seen before.
Bao Yunli asked suspiciously: "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Are you Mrs. Duan? I'm looking for Master Duan. ”
"You are?"
Su Yixin said: "I am the wife of the new envoy of Cangwu County, and my surname is Su. ”
Bao Yunli looked at Su Yixin in surprise: "You are the lord of Ruian?" ”
"It's me."
Bao Yunli nodded, and said in her heart: No wonder.
It turned out to be Lord Ryan.
"The county lord, please, the old woman will call him."
The house is a two-entry house, from the courtyard to the main hall, and I didn't see anyone else, and Qiu Qiu said that Duan's character was ancient, so he lived with his wife.
When they arrived at the main hall, Mrs. Duan apologized and said, "There are only two of us in this house, and the county lord will be later." ”
After about a cup of tea, Mrs. Duan appeared.
I didn't see Master Duan get a figure.
Mrs. Duan brought the tea, poured a cup of tea for Su Yixin very apologetically, and said, "Don't blame the county lord, my family has a strange temperament, no matter what the old woman says, she won't come out to see her." ”
Mrs. Duan calls herself an old woman, but she is actually in her early forties, because if she does it herself, she looks older than her real age, and she looks like she is forty-five or sixteen.
Su Yixin raised her eyebrows almost invisibly.
It seems that what Qiu Qiu said is still subtle, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary person who doesn't want to see the powerful.
Su Yixin smiled and took the teacup in his hand and drank it.
"This tea is the unique tip of Liangguang?"
Mrs. Duan nodded with a smile: "Yes, his favorite is this hair tip, which is indispensable every day." There was no other tea at home, which made the county lord smile. ”
"No, it won't."
Bao Yunli thought that the lord of Ruian County would not see anyone, and he would leave after sitting for a while.
Unexpectedly, when it was noon, it was time for lunch, and she had no intention of leaving.
I can't fix Bao Yunli.
After a few hesitations, he still spoke: "If the county lord doesn't dislike it, why don't you stay and have a light meal?" ”
Su Yixin was waiting for Mrs. Duan's words, and immediately nodded: "Okay, then trouble Mrs. Duan!" ”
Bao Yunli got up and went to the kitchen to cook.
Su Yixin put down the teacup and said, "Mrs. Duan, why don't you go together?" ”
"When I was young, my husband and I were still in Wangjia Village, and I cooked for the house, and my skills were not bad."
Duan Zhi'an, who eavesdropped next door: "......"
She also cooks?
Bao Liyun and Su Yixin walked side by side to the kitchen, and when they heard Su Yixin say this, they asked: "We have also heard about the Lord of Ruian, but the Lord of Ruian has been doing business since he was a child, and his family is very solid, and the old woman does not look like she can cook when she looks at the hands of the county lord." Didn't expect ......"
Chapter 2 is a little later!
