Chapter 407： fifteen

Just two days after returning from Zhuangzi, Cheng Bo sent someone a message, saying that the autumn harvest was over, and the rent was also collected, and asked his wife to take some time to arrange a few cars to pull, there are twelve load.

Pei Xiu figured it out, there are not many people in their house, they can eat for a few months, and more than half of this year has passed, and they can get Zhou Chengmi again by the end of the year.

This year's food is enough to eat. Before winter begins, Zhuangzi can grow some more vegetables and dry them. When winter begins, they will also have pickled and dried vegetables to eat.

Tomorrow, let the housekeeper rent a few cars to pull, and buy some vegetable seeds to send over. Now there is no way to raise chickens and ducks, and when spring starts next year, let Cheng Bo raise them.

I don't know when Zhou Cheng will be able to come back from the battle. It was estimated that it was a little off a year ago. He has been gone for four months. Except for Nanman, the rest of the fiefs have been recovered.

The thirty-six generals of the court are still very strong. After so many years of recuperation, the court needs people and food, and those vassal kings are like hitting a stone with an egg.

The person who knows the times is Junjie, and when she thinks of this, she has to admire the decisiveness of the King of Huainan.

Abandoning the fief and returning to Beijing, he can still make a profit. Anyway, the taxes he has earned over the years will not be spent in his entire life.

It is also possible to take the concubine out of the palace for glory in advance, and other vassal kings are not so lucky.

The emperor can use the day to replace the month and mourning for twenty-seven days, but the imperial family has to mourn for twenty-seven months and stop the wedding banquet.

The concubines had to wait until twenty-seven months before they could be taken out of the palace for support.

I heard that the money donated by the King of Huainan was used as military supplies, so the court was able to support hundreds of thousands of troops to fight a protracted war without any pressure.

The journey to Nanman was long, and it was inconvenient to convey the news. Starting from Jinyang City, I don’t know that it will take a few months to get there.

There are many snakes, insects, mice and ants in the southern barbarians, and the local weather is determined by the geographical location.

She was looking down at the calendar she had written and thinking about it, the housekeeper came to report at this time, saying that Mrs. Qiu asked her to go to a fragrance on the fifteenth day after tomorrow.

She took the post, glanced at it, and said to the housekeeper, "If you reply, just say I will be on time for the appointment."

In any case, she is also idle when she is idle. A few boys go to school. She is also playing with wheat alone in the house, and goes out for a walk with Mrs. Qiu.

Now it's a little cooler in the morning and evening, and it's gradually autumn. I don't know if the sweet-scented osmanthus is blooming?

It will be fifteen the day after tomorrow. I went to have a fragrant in the morning, and in the afternoon, I went home to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival. It was just right.

Tomorrow, the court will receive benefits again, and the benefits of officials in this court are still very good.

During the festivals, cloth and rice grains are distributed, and there should be moon cakes tomorrow. The imperial court also has a one-day holiday.

The academy also gave a one-day holiday, but the three brothers were not happy, because the academy had advanced the 20th holiday, and on the 15th, there would be no holiday on the 20th.

"Be content, the autumn harvest has been off for seven days, and it's only a few days since I came back. I'm going to go to the incense tomorrow, you guys are not allowed to go out, stay at home and read books and take care of yourself."

The boss said desperately, "Mother, we can follow to protect you."

"No, Ding Bo is only in the suburbs of Beijing. Be honest, I will take the wheat with me, and I won't let her disturb you."

"OK then!"

They complied obediently. Mother had spoken, but they dared not not listen. They had just been punished.

You don't have to look at your sister, it's a great fortune among misfortunes.

Wheat: stinky brother...

When he was fifteen, before Pei Xiu left, he saw Zhou Yi coming.

He was a little surprised how Aunt Zhou dressed up today, and she looked very homely a few days ago.

"Where is Auntie going today?"

"Mrs. Qiu asked me to go to the Reclining Buddha Temple on the outskirts of Beijing to offer incense. Today, I detained the three brothers and prevented them from going out. Since you are here, you can study with them, and don't make a fool of yourself. If you let me know, you will sneak out again. , this time even you will be punished."

He smiled and said: "How dare I, auntie, they encouraged me to go. I'm very good, I didn't plan to go out today, but I was bored at home, so I'll study with them in the house. "

"That's good, you go to their courtyard to find them."

He bowed and was about to exit, when he saw a chubby little man staggering toward the side hall.

Suddenly, he stopped curiously, "Auntie, is this wheat? It's so cute."

"Yeah, this is Mai, you haven't seen it, have you?" She stepped forward to hold Mai's hand and said, "Mai, brother Zhou Yi."

"Brother Zhou Yi!" She opened her **** eyes, looked curiously at the brother she had never seen before, and cried out in a milky voice.

Zhou Yi narrowed his eyes with a smile, "I'm so good, I'll take you to find your three brothers, okay?"

"No, I want my mother." She took Pei Xiu's hand tightly and hid behind her, afraid of being taken away by this strange brother.

"Okay, let's go out to the city with my mother, my brother is joking with you." After comforting Mai, she said to Zhou Yi, "Go, I'm going out too."

I made an appointment with Mrs. Qiu to meet at the gate of the city at the right time. The two houses are in two directions, so it is more convenient to meet at the gate of the city.

When she arrived, Madam Qiu's carriage was already waiting at the city gate.

"You're finally here. I've been waiting for a while. Shall we ride in the same carriage? Two children can play together?" Mrs. Qiu looked out of the car window and said~ OK Ah, then I'll get into your car, and your maid and nurse will go to my car. Hearing the babble in her car, Pei Xiu said unexpectedly, "You brought your son out too? Didn't you take it with you before? "

She also hugged the noisy boy to the window and showed Pei Xiu, "I don't want to take it either, but this little devil is sticking to me now. Knowing that I'm going out, I'm crying so badly, so I have to take him. superior."

Pei Xiu got out of the car with Mai in her arms, went to Mrs. Qiu's carriage, looked at the little guy who was a head shorter than Mai, and said gently, "Is it almost one year old? I can't hold a big banquet during the national mourning period, so I feel wronged. After the birthday, give me the next post, so I can be lively, and the first birthday can't be too hasty."

"There is no national mourning, and I don't plan to do it. His father is fighting outside the capital and is not in the capital. It's good to have a meal with family and friends. I will post a post for you after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Okay, I'm free in the manor anyway."

At this time, the little doll of the Qiu family burst into tears.

Mai also shouted: "This is mine!"
