143 Redemption by the government

Mrs. Hu: "There is no need to worry about my life for the time being. ”

Yun Zhu, who was snorting, choked up, and the sense of steadiness that suddenly fell into his heart quickly enveloped the person, thinking about Fang Cai's gaffe, Yun Zhu looked for a way to make up for it, "...... Hey, she just loves money, and if she's not safe, she'll follow you all the way back, really, I know it's worrying. ”

It was only two or three months of friendship with Zhao San who shared the same bed, but with the repeated contact in recent years, the older I became, the more I understood that it was a soft and emotional woman.

However, she was too young to be overly sensitive, and because of family reasons, she was too thoughtful, but she was still married to Liu Ping for three years, so she was a little more flexible.

Thinking about it, the two haven't seen each other for almost half a year, and now they have to know the current situation from the letter, when listening to Zhao San talking about the Jinling riots in the letter, Yun Zhu felt that his heart was about to jump to his throat.

Then watching her being taken captive by Haoqiang to open up the wasteland, and she was able to meet the Hu family and his wife in the gap between ploughing the ground, Yunzhu was covered in cold sweat but couldn't bear to be happy.

What a smart kid.

Zhao San said to himself: "We have had some twists and turns in Jinling, I don't want to hide it from you, but everything is fine, I have grown two inches taller, and I am practicing boxing with a master who is playing iron, the master is very good, not only helping us turn the ground, but also teaching us a few people to box, very patient." ”

"Although it is said that it is to be taken away, these people are not bad, we are allowed to continue farming, and they also promise to harvest grain at a price 20% higher than that of the government in the next year, so we will not return to the capital for the time being, otherwise the money for renting land will be wasted......

Yunzhu held back a bubble of tears, crying and laughing, and turned the page to see a nondescript small painting, vaguely recognizable as corn.

Looking at the corn cob that haunted my heart for more than two months, the restlessness of revealing the mystery gradually deepened, and I couldn't wait to turn over, and sure enough, I saw Zhao San writing in the letter, "The south is a barren land with mountains and rocks, rice cannot be planted, and beans are difficult to climb. ”

It is good for familiar people to be knife catchers, there is no need to spare words like gold, look at the five or six pieces of paper that are mixed with Lala, and you will know that the Hu family is credible in Zhao San's eyes.

I even talked about the selection and breeding, and at the end I didn't forget to praise Yunzhu for being a good boy who was down-to-earth, didn't forget his roots, and remembered the things that served the land, and even figured out an effective way to remember it first.

Yunzhu closed the letter and said in her heart, Zhao San went out, and her sister's money became more and more stable.

When she first wrote the letter, Mrs. Hu happened to be on the sidelines, so she naturally knew what was in the letter, and now she acts as a commentator, which just completes the situation beyond the letter.

"There is a self-proclaimed Liuzhao Palace in Jinling, it is rumored that the first was a woodcutter, when he was collecting firewood on Zhongshan Mountain, he was taught the secret method by the immortals, and found a paradise, called Liuzhaoquan, saying that there are endless gold and silver treasures under it......"

Mrs. Hu is a person with a temperament, and immediately pursed her lips and said solemnly, "There are many of them, and Lao Hu and I were not robbed because of the official road we took." But Zhao San and the others live in the mountains, maybe they have stepped on it, and the two of them go out to do their work and take care of them separately, and neither of them is willing to leave each other and run first, not to mention the cost of the mountain, no one can give up. ”

Yunzhu wrinkled his eyebrows, remembering his ambition from the wild history, but if the mountain bandits wanted to make a windfall, they either ransacked villages in remote places, or did not talk about martial arts to dig people's ancestral graves.

The way to realize it is also very simple and rude, and he directly said that he met a spirit fairy in the mountains, and he was given it for nothing.

What? You also want to get rich?

Wow, then you guys mess with me, let's go loot the next one, ah, no, let's go find the next kind old fairy, find some food to eat, and spend some money.

If you want to support so many people, you will inevitably have to loot the villages, and in the long run, there will be riots.

Now Jinling is looking at the riot, and if it is like this, the emperor will definitely put down the chaos, but it costs money to quell the chaos, but there is no money in the treasury......

If the common people have no money at home, they will sell some eggs, grain and livestock, and if they have no money, they will kill the fattened ducks. Thinking of this, Yunzhu gasped, and felt in his heart that five hundred taels should still be flowers, and he couldn't wait for the fat duck to overturn before he could find a way, in case it was late, it would be troublesome.

The woman's family is always emotionally delicate, and after determining that Zhao San will be fine for the time being, an old man and a young man got together, sighed for a while The love of the three people who depend on each other, and sighed about the layoffs in the house.

"Five hundred taels of silver, it's really a lot, and ordinary people like us will spend a total of thirty or fifty taels all year round." Mrs. Hu couldn't help but stumble after hearing the price, "But if you want to make it up, it's okay, wait for Lao Hu to come back, let's write a letter to Zhao San to discuss." ”

As soon as Mrs. Hu heard the redemption, she suddenly became energetic, and she finally didn't have to hold back many words in her heart, she was afraid that Yunzhu would regret it, so she said very quickly,

"You must not be blinded by those fancy riches, it is the right idea to redeem yourself. I don't treat you as an outsider, although some things are said to be early, but you also have to know that everyone in the world takes slave status as a lowly status, which is the most common village family to say that they are relatives, and when they hear about lowly status, they have to think about it. ”

What's more, the future of the heirs of the children and grandchildren is excluded everywhere.

What is a lowly status? Mrs. Hu has been in Rongguo Mansion for four months, and naturally knows that the powerful maid and servant woman is simply a mustard-like existence, who catches and bullies!

Yunzhu sat on the edge of the couch and listened carefully with a smile, and suddenly there was a meowing kitten meow outside the door, and when she opened the curtain to take a look, she saw Hu Junrong catching a palm-sized milk cat ball, and she was playing the snowflakes on her body.

"Yo, it's snowing, and we've both lost track of time." Mrs. Hu took the kitten over and handed it to Yun Zhu to hug, "The child is older, he has no playmate, and he is talking about looking for a little thing to come back to accompany him." ”

"Liu'er is also here, and your aunt is thinking about you." Hu Junrong greeted him warmly, as if his own child had come home, and he didn't see it at all, and turned around to call his son out to see the cat as if offering treasure.

The brocade-haired kitten was smoky, and its round shape drilled back and forth on its sleeves, like a burnt chestnut crawling out of the fire. Yun Zhu stroked back and forth a few times, Xu is gesture was wrong, seeing that there was a tendency to blow up, he hurriedly threw the kitten into the arms of the child of the Hu family.

"It's the flower slave I want!" The little fool danced with his hands, shouted thank his father and mother, kicked off his shoes and held the cat to the kang.

Mrs. Hu's disgust was overflowing, but she suppressed her voice and said softly, "I have to keep it in the firewood room for two days, tell it to go back and in the ashes under the stove, and I have to buy veterinary medicine to repel insects, but I can't come to the house first." ”

"Okay, I'm going to sleep in the woodroom with it!"

Hu Junrong roasted a cold air under the stove, and when he entered the house, he listened to his son's innocent words and said with a smile, "Okay, you sleep in the firewood room with it." ”

The kitten was taken away, and Hu Junrong was busy asking if it was okay to eat the pot on such a cold day. Yun Zhu raised his eyebrows, and jokingly said that he brought a knife of lamb meat, and the shabu pot was just right, and the two of them finished patting, and when they saw the snowflakes falling outside the window, Mrs. Hu happily agreed.

"In that case, let's eat now, how many days can Xiaoliu stay outside? Today's meal is a pot, and I can only eat sauce duck soup tomorrow. ”

Where is the mutton shabu in the sauce duck soup sounds tempting, although he is going back to Jiafu tonight, Yunzhu still firmly voted for shabu-shabu.

"It's snowing, it's expensive to buy anything, you two grind these peanuts and sesame seeds out of sauce, be sure to grind some paste, I'll paste some jade cakes, and serve them in a pot for a good meal." When it came to grinding sesame sauce, Mrs. Hu told me not very easily, and described the appearance of the finished product again.

Erba sauce, Yunzhu nodded, and the white water shabu was dipped in sesame sauce, and the taste was also extremely beautiful.

It's just the first time I grind sesame sauce with my own hands, and I'm still a little rusty, Yunzhu didn't throw off his arms and do it, for fear that he would make a barb on his hand, and he would be disgusted by Qingwen when he turned back to do embroidery work. When Hu Junrong saw it, he didn't want her to grind, "You thin skin and tender meat, you can touch the taste, give it to me!" ”

Yunzhu: "Fortunately, there is a donkey to call, if you go back to the shabu shabu to grind it yourself, I am afraid that the shabu shabu will not be fragrant." ”

"Grind it directly into powder to dip it into fragrant miles, I also thought about putting it in the pot and cooking it together, but your aunt won't let me."

Dipping sauce is boiled in one pot, isn't that spicy hot pot?

It's a pity that spicy hot pot can't be popular for a while. The people can't afford to eat, the nobles can't look down on it, after eating it once in Jiafu, the masters said that it was too fishy, although the taste was good, but it was not conducive to health, and then it was never served again.

There are people who like it, especially the little women who work hard in the garden, one by one, they simply worship Yunzhu as a fairy, and the craftsmanship on this stove does not know which one will be blessed in the future.

Boasting back and forth, I just want to ask Yunzhu to make a few more hot pots.

But fresh meat and vegetables are easy to obtain, but the pepper and pepper are expensive, and the wealth is as thick as Jiafu, and the treasury refuses to give it after two times. The steward said bluntly that there is not much stock, and the price is expensive, so if you want to use it, you can go to your wife to approve the strips.

Go to Mrs. Wang for hot pot base? Yunzhu shook his head into a rattle, there is no need, there is no need, the boiled meat dipped in sesame sauce is also delicious.

"I said, Master Xiaoliu, have you read the letter that Zhao Laosan wrote to you? Do you want me to read it to you? "Not many people outside know about Yunzhu's literacy, and Mrs. Hu is a tight-mouthed person, and she is suddenly regarded as illiterate, which tastes quite strange.

"I've finished reading it, and I'm waiting to use your connections to bring her a reply." Yun Zhu snorted his teeth and said that the wool was bright and bright.

"Lao Hu, go to the cellar and get two cabbages." As he spoke, he dragged Hu Junrong out of the door, I don't know what the two of them said on the road, and when they came back, they didn't stop rubbing their beards.

What do you think?

Seeing this, Yunzhu couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that the two of them were thinking too much, so he said, "It's good to be a cabbage, I'm not a picky eater, how delicious is the frosted cabbage." ”

The sweet aroma of tortillas came into the house from the kitchen, accompanied by the sound of meowing, Hu Junrong asked her, "Five hundred taels of silver for redemption?" ”

"Ah...... You know that? Yunzhu was originally an adult in his body, and he didn't treat himself as a child after getting acquainted, and after cutting the cabbage in his hand, he snorted in his nose and complained a little, "It's also a helpless thing, people have me and I don't, and it is inevitable to be at the mercy of others." ”

As he spoke, he clapped his hands and sent the cabbage to the kitchen, his expression was no longer suitable.

Seeing this, Hu Junrong was the first to laugh, patted his thigh and said, "I always feel that I owe you a huge favor, and now I can be regarded as waiting for the opportunity." Well, we don't have any money in our family. ”

He said this with high interest, but he threw it down again with a sharp turn, and Yun Zhu thought that he was going to lend him money, and said with a smile, "Could it be that Imperial Doctor Hu's connections can give me a grace?" ”

Hu Junrong hesitated, "It's only temporary, and it can't be ...... yet."

The garlic was peeled out one by one, and then it was turned into minced garlic, and the fragrant and smelly garlic paste was mixed into the sesame sauce, Hu Junrong took the molar, and patted his son, "Go and wash your face and wash your hands, come back after washing, if you are not clean, you will not eat meat!" ”

After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and volunteered to slice the boiled mutton into slices, Yunzhu next to him didn't expect it to be such a shabu-shabu method, and then cut it out and dip it in sauce after cooking, which saved a lot of charcoal.

"You're right, I'll be rewarded for my meritorious deeds when I come back from Jinling, but here's it...... In short, it's not okay to reward more, it's not okay to reward less, and it's even worse if you don't reward it, so I'm afraid of hearing the word reward now! ”

"Everyone wants to be promoted and get rich, but if you are poor, when you enter the Tai Hospital, you said that you will give me a set of silver needles, guess what? Not yet! ”

"I think that rewarding officials and spending money is hateful, why don't I ask for a favor, in the name of the Ether Hospital, how about asking for an official redemption for you? I'll just give you half a favor. ”

"At least...... It doesn't cost five hundred taels of silver, does it? Who has so much money! ”

The three of them talked enthusiastically about the government's request for redemption, and said that what kind of favors are involved, and they are walking around at the end of the year, maybe it will be finalized in the coming year, and they are all very excited.

Only the stupid son of the Hu family is the most realistic, and he just said back and forth, "Can I eat with the kitten?" The kitten said it would eat meat too. ”

It is said that it is a pot, it is better to say that it is called cabbage stewed mutton, the corn tortillas with the burnt edge are rolled up and fragrant, and the bite is even more crispy and delicious.

You shouldn't need to cover the quilt when you sleep tonight, warm up and warm, Yunzhu eats to her heart's content, and her expression is confused, and she still doesn't forget to redeem herself.

As soon as he withdrew his hand, he pulled out a purse from his sleeve, and solemnly blessed the Hu family and his wife, "Ten taels of silver, you use it to move around, so I will wait for a good letter in Jiafu!" ”

There is a chance to save five hundred taels from in front of him, Yunzhu is very concerned, at this time, saving money is making money, and earning five hundred taels of silver back and forth, who can not care?

Who knew that Hu Junrong was with a horizontal hand, pushed the purse back, burped wine, and shouted with a gesture, "What's the matter!" I tell you, this is done, and you will thank you for your great kindness, if not...... It's not ......"

Hu Junrong's face was full of wine, his face was flushed, and he dared to talk to others with such a small amount, Mrs. Hu could hardly stand it, and continued, "Don't spread this word, if it doesn't work, just treat it as if you haven't done it, otherwise, with the character of the manager of Jiafu, I'm afraid that you are in a hurry to redeem yourself and sit on the ground." ”

It's natural.

Yunzhu staggered into the carriage and swayed all the way into Jiafu, and his mouth full of garlic and Qiqi was fake, before he got into the bed.

She looked at the top of the bed and thought in a daze, this is called the time to come and earth to work together, it's good.

Hey, that's nice.
