Chapter 323: Making up for the situation before it is too late
“My good daughter, you are so considerate. Then wait for me for a while, and then I will grow new vegetables and cook them deliciously for you!”
“Okay, mom is the best!” Jiayin came to her mother’s side and happily nestled in her arms.
At this moment, there was a knock on the courtyard door. It was heard especially clearly in the dark night.
The lights in every room of the Li family were turned on again. Li Zhensheng, Li Laoer and Jiayi opened the door first and went out.
It turned out that the patrol team came with Liu Zhiheng. When Liu Zhiheng saw the Li family wearing clothes in a haphazard manner, he hurriedly said: "Oh, I came unexpectedly. I hurriedly took my time, but I still arrived in the middle of the night."
“Brother Liu, where are you from? Come in and sit down quickly. Have you eaten?” Li Zhensheng quickly opened the courtyard door and led Liu Zhiheng inside.
Li Laoer wanted to be courteous to the old men in the patrol team, but he was refused. The old men said hello and continued to work.
Although the grass on the mountains has grown, the melon seedlings are still not as good as the melon seedlings and are not as delicious as the melon seedlings.
In order to prevent the little beasts from destroying the melon fields by coming to perform tooth sacrifices, the patrol team doubled the manpower and walked back and forth in the fields all the time.
If the Liu family's motorcade hadn't come over and made a lot of noise, they wouldn't have had time to come over.
Li Laoer turned around and saw Tao Hongying standing at the door of the wing with Jiayin in her arms, and said, "Brother and sister, please make some simple meals. There are many Liu family stewards and coachmen outside, and I'm afraid they haven't eaten either. "
“Okay, second brother, I’ll cook right now.”
Tao Hongying put down the good news, so she took her second uncle's hand and went to the main room to listen to the excitement.
Tao Hongying put on her apron, and Dongmei heard the noise and came over to help, so the two lit a fire.
Originally I was going to steam steamed buns tomorrow morning, so I made two basins of noodles.
Fortunately, the noodles have risen by now. Just put it in the pot and steam it, then boil a pot of rice porridge, stir-fry a small pot of salted mustard greens and shredded pork, and it's almost done.
Liu Zhiheng felt very sorry to see that no one in the Li family, old or young, could sleep peacefully because of what he had done to him.
“After I received the news, I couldn’t bear it any longer, so I brought people over from Yunhe Town. On the way, the carriage’s axle broke, which delayed us for an hour, otherwise we would have arrived at dusk.”
Li Zhensheng waved his hand and said in a low voice: "These things are valuable, take them away quickly, it will save our family trouble."
When Liu Zhiheng heard this, he was not polite and asked briefly about what was new in Quanzhou. The more he listened, the more excited he became, "Zhensheng, when you establish yourself in Quanzhou in the future, I will follow you." Go ahead and open your eyes.”
Li Zhensheng was very happy to have multiple partners, "Okay, the north and the south are thousands of miles apart, and many things are completely different. There are also many ways to make money. If you run the business well, you won't have to worry about the business not being prosperous."
Liu Zhiheng still remembered the important event and said: "It won't be finished before the autumn harvest. I will definitely go there in early winter."
At this time, Tao Hongying brought food. Hearing that his steward and coachman had also received hot meals, Liu Zhiheng quickly thanked him and once again expressed his gratitude for the thoughtfulness of the Li family.
Who doesn’t like this kind of family and who doesn’t want to make friends with them?
When he was full and full, Liu Zhiheng led people to load the corn and potato seeds from Ye's yard into a truck and take them away.
After a busy night, the village finally returned to calm, and everyone in the Li family could finally sleep.
Jiayin was so sleepy that she tried to keep her eyes open to look at her mother who was lying on the table copying. In the end, she couldn't refuse Duke Zhou's invitation and fell asleep.
In her sleep, she was still thinking about how to start studying quickly.
She can't always rely on the little memories and small space in her previous life to be lazy.
If one day, she really falls down and brings trouble to the family, it will be too late to regret...
When I woke up the next day, everyone in the family had already gone about their business. When Jiayin found her grandma, the old lady was watering the vegetable seedlings in the back garden. Seeing that her granddaughter was awake, the old lady helped her wash her hands and serve her custard.
When Jiayin was full, he took grandma's hand and said, "Grandma, Fu Niu wants to learn to write and embroider."
The old lady was surprised when she heard this. She knew very well that her granddaughter was a lazy kid, so why did she suddenly become diligent?
But regardless of the reason, it is a good thing that my granddaughter is making progress.
She opened the warehouse at that time, took a box of embroidery thread and embroidery needles, a few pieces of materials, a set of four treasures of the study, and a box of snacks, and then led her daughter to the courtyard of the village chief's house.
Huiniang had previously taken on a large embroidery job at the embroidery shop, and now she was sitting in front of the window with her head bowed embroidering.
She was also happy when she heard that Jiayin was going to learn skills from her.
Perhaps she was worried that Jiayin was young and lacked talent. From the beginning, she only taught Jiayin how to make purses and other things, and occasionally taught her how to write when she had free time.
Originally, she thought that Jiayin would give up after persisting for a few days. Who would have expected that the little fat girl could actually sit firmly, not cry when her finger was pricked with an embroidery needle, and learn to write very quickly.
She was really pleasantly surprised, so she thought about it carefully, and then taught Jiayin to write and read for half an hour in the morning, and Xuenuhong for half an hour. Occasionally, she would trace embroidery patterns and turn flower ropes, which was a good way to spice things up...
The sun rises and the moon sets, and the weather gets hotter every day.
It rains during the Qingming Festival and goes for an outing during the Dragon Boat Festival. The season is like a rabbit being chased by a fox, running very fast.
It seems like July has arrived in the blink of an eye. The vegetation in the mountains and fields has turned from fresh green to dark green, and the crops in the fields are half waist high.
In the melon field outside Broken Gold Beach, the jade melons are already the size of pots, and the garden is about to be opened.
Mrs. Li carried a basket and picked a few tomatoes from the new vegetable garden and a handful of green lettuce as she walked home. Passing by the melon shed, she chatted with the village chief.
“The weather is too hot. I’m sweating even after taking a few steps.”
The village chief smiled and shook his cattail leaf fan and responded, "It's almost July, can it not be hot? In another half of the month, it's time to pick melons!"
Old Mrs. Li looked around and asked, "It's quite quiet today. No one comes to ask when the park will open?"
The village chief's face was full of pride, "These city people are all eyeing the melon fields in our village. They have obviously planted big locust trees and big and small Wangzhuangs, and there are even more everywhere outside, but they all want to buy ours." . I was really impatient and asked my second brother to make a reservation. Just like in Hot Spring Valley, everyone who wants to buy will queue up and the price will be determined later!
The old lady couldn't help but laugh, "That's good, otherwise the village would be bustling with people coming and going every day."
Speaking of this, the village chief asked again: "I heard that the chief steward of the Marquis Mansion is here, but is there something wrong with the Marquis?"
"It's no big deal," the old lady waved her hand, "It's Fu Niu's birthday soon. The eldest housekeeper is here to ask if everything is going well at home? I think the eldest son should be back by then, and the Marquis and the fourth son will almost return to the camp. Okay, let’s set up a few banquets to celebrate Fu Niu.
"When this child was just born, the whole family was running away from famine, and there was no excitement between the one and two-year-olds. Now that the family is doing well, and they have grown a lot of new vegetables, Hongying is allowed to show off her talents, cook more good dishes, and have a good time together. Get together!"
The village chief nodded, "It's time to celebrate. Speaking of which, our whole village has benefited a lot from Fu Niu'er!"
“That’s what I’m saying first, and I need to look at it again.”
The old lady didn't say too much. After all, it was too difficult to gather together all the people in the family, those who were studying, those who were going on expeditions, and those who were traveling south.
