Sixty-one The Qingzhou Army was defeated in the first battle (ask for follow-up!) )
Chen Mo took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it, things had already happened and could not be changed, so everything followed his heart.
He squatted down, touched Song Min's head, and said with a smile: "Min'er, go to my house and be a maid for me, okay?" ”
Song Min didn't agree immediately, but looked at Liu Shuhou and whispered, "Will Brother Mo not want me in the future?" ”
"Min'er is so obedient, how could Brother Mo not want you, and your sister Han likes you very much." Chen Mowen said.
"Hmm." Song Min nodded, and then said, "I will be very obedient, and I will serve Brother Hao Mo and Sister Han." ”
"Min'er is so good." Chen Mo pinched Song Min's face.
Seeing this, Liu Shu, who was lying on the ground, moved his eyes, immediately got up, and said, "If Min'er is not well-behaved, Brother Mo, you can teach her a lesson, and she will be obedient after a few beatings." ”
Chen Mo's gaze moved to Liu Shu, and the smile on his face disappeared: "You don't need to say much about this, you just take care of yourself." ”
"That's, that's."
Liu Shu rubbed his hands with a smile and said, "Since you asked Min'er to be a maid for you, you bought her, so this..."
"How much do you want?" Chen Mo interrupted him directly.
"Ten taels." Liu Shushi opened his mouth widely, gritted his teeth and said.
"Huh?!"
"No, five taels, five taels will do." Liu Shu felt that Chen Mo should give this price, after all, his family had a lot of fish and meat every day.
"Five taels? Liu Shu, do you want money to go crazy? Zhang He couldn't help but say.
"Half a penny, come to my house to get it."
Chen Mo made the final decision.
It's not that he can't afford to give five taels of silver, but giving five taels of silver to people like Liu Shu is a complete waste.
Besides, in this world, as long as he eats, he can find several better maids than Song Min.
He has money, but he doesn't want to be wronged.
And if it weren't for the guilt of the Song family, Liu Shu was Song Min's biological father, and Chen Mo didn't want to give this half of the money.
As for Liu Shu's dissatisfaction?
Is it bigger than someone's fist?
Liu Shu naturally did not agree in his heart, although this price was about the same as the price of the Qinglou that Qiao Yuzi said.
But Chen Mo, you are from the same village, and you only give this money, are you embarrassed?
Aren't you afraid to spread the word that the villagers say about you?
However, seeing the knife in Chen Mo's hand, Liu Shu could only agree.
...
Go home.
Chen Mo asked Liu Shu to wait outside, then called Han Anniang out of the cellar, told her briefly about Song Min, and asked her to take Song Min to take a bath.
Han Anniang is a kind-hearted person, and when she heard this, she was immediately full of sympathy for Song Min, and she also accepted Song Min in her heart.
Chen Mo took half of the money out of the house and gave it to Liu Shu, in order to break his idea of seeking benefits from Song Min through Song Min, he also brought a pen and paper and wrote a contract.
After he finished detaining, he said: "Since you sold Song Min to me, then she will be my maid from now on, and she has nothing to do with you, I allow you to see her, but don't want to get any benefits from me through her."
Do you understand what I said? ”
"Brother Mo is talking to you, he's deaf, isn't he?" Seeing that Liu Shu didn't speak, Zhang He glared at him fiercely.
"Yes, yes." Liu Shudao.
"Then why are you still here, waiting for me to leave you for lunch?" Chen Mo's eyes were cold.
Liu Shu accepted the money and left in a hurry.
……
Ten years later, the time has come to the end of February.
The weather is getting warmer.
In the morning, as Chen Mo's shovel pierced through the ground, the tunnel connecting the Chen family and Zhang He was opened.
In fact, the tunnel can be opened two days ago, just for the load-bearing of the tunnel, Chen Mo specially went up the mountain to cut some wood back to make support.
Thanks to Chen Mo's deterrent power in the village, coupled with the fact that he doesn't deal with the people in the village very much, it gives people a feeling that they are not easy to get along with, and no one knows about his digging tunnels except for Han Anniang, Song Min and the Zhang family.
After covering the entrance, return to the Chen family cellar from the tunnel.
After coming out of the cellar, Han Anniang had already made lunch.
Song Min helped Han Anniang serve the food, and after the bowls of rice were served, Song Min hurriedly went to get the chopsticks and brought warm water for Chen Mo to wash his hands and face.
Chen Mo stepped forward to help.
Song Min is indeed very well-behaved, since she came, she has done laundry, sweeping the floor, and even collecting and folding clothes at home, if it weren't for Han Anniang's young age, she couldn't bear it, things like cooking, boiling water, and even warming the bed, she would have given it all to her.
In short, after Song Min came, she shared a lot of housework for Han Anniang, which was distressing to be sensible.
The only bad thing is that when Chen Mo and Han Anniang discussed the philosophy of life in the evening, Han Anniang couldn't let go, she covered her mouth and didn't sing, and some actions didn't cooperate.
After all, a mud house like the Chen family is not soundproof at all, and Song Min lives in the room where Han Anniang lived, which is next door, and it is easy to hear.
Han Anniang's temperament is still very shy.
"Sister Han's."
"Brother Mo's."
"This is Brother Shui's."
Song Min helped the three of them serve rice.
"Thank you, Min'er." Han Anniang's eyes narrowed into a slit, and she touched Song Min's little head with a smile.
"You're welcome, let's eat."
After an afternoon of manual work, Chen Mo just wants to take a big bite of dry rice.
Chen Mo directly grabbed a piece of smoked pork with his hand and gnawed it.

The Chen family is not short of meat at present, and the silver that Chen Mo obtained from the Qinghe Gang, except for the necessary staple food, almost all of the others are used to buy meat, and then processed by pickling, smoking, etc., and stored in the cellar.
and twenty taels of silver were left for spare.
...
The next day, just as Chen Mo was about to go into the city to inquire about the latest news, Wu Shan came, still alone.
Wu Shan came specifically to find Chen Mo this time.
As soon as he entered the house, Wu Shan said, "Brother Chen, it's a big deal, it's a big deal." ”
Chen Mo hurriedly beckoned Wu Shan to sit down, and asked Han Anniang to make tea.
After pouring the tea, Wu Shan took a sip of tea and didn't say it immediately, but glanced around.
Chen Mo asked Han Anniang to take Song Min into the house, because the tunnel was dug up, Zhang He was not at his house today.
After that, Chen Mo closed the doors and windows again, sat down opposite Wu Shan, and said, "Brother Wu, what's wrong?" ”
Wu Shan put down the teacup, straightened his body, and said in Chen Mo's ear: "Last night, Yamen received an urgent letter from Nanyang, the rebels in the north have captured Fuyou City, the Qingzhou army was defeated in the first battle, the rebels in Jizhou and Gaozhou have approached Fengxian, the troops in front are not enough, the prefect ordered conscription, and Pingting County has fallen five hundred places. ”
