Chapter 288

Jiang Mingzhao said that the courtyard is not far from the Academy. It's very quiet.

It's just a small house with two entrances. It's the place where he stopped occasionally when he was studying in the Academy. After he started business, he never lived again.

Because they had been informed in advance, so the yard had been cleaned up. Song Xintong and them moved things into the house to live.

The people who came to clean also prepared a lot of food before they left. They didn't even have to go out to buy it.

"It's a nice yard." Song Xintong looked at a few Begonia trees in the yard. There were birds on them to build a nest. He really knew where to choose.

Lu Yunkai said lightly, "just like it."

Song Xintong took a look at the twins who were running crazy in the yard, and then asked in a low voice, "why do you want to promise him? In fact, it's good for us to live in the inn."

"He's right. We can use the kitchen at will here," Lu said

"But I owe you again." Song Xintong sighed, "he also helped us to look at the shop, which is not clear."

"It's OK. He said you're welcome."

Song Xintong looked at Lu Yunkai, then laughed, "all listen to you."

She knew that Lu Yun had a ruler in his happy life. He said yes, that's OK, not more than that.

"Take a break. I'll go to the kitchen and see what I have. I'll see what I do in the evening." After two steps, song Xintong thought that there was still a letter from Taohua village that he had not read. "My mother sent us a letter. I'll take it for you."

Song Xintong handed it to Lu Yunkai, "look what my mother said. The letter is very thick."

"It's for Dabao and Xiaobao." Lu Yunkai picked out one of the most ugly words and frowned, "it's been a year, and the words are still so ugly."

"Only seven years old, you can count on them to write as well." Song Xintong handed the letter to the twins, "take it and have a look. Goudan Er has answered your letter."

The twins took the letter and ran into the room, intending to study what the dog's egg had written.

Lu Yunkai looked at the letter and said, "everything is fine, mother. Let's not worry about our family."

"My mother asked the poplar to change our house and study. When winter comes, we can be as warm as the Song family."

"What's wrong with that motherfucker's house?" Song Xintong asked.

"Yes." Lu Yunkai looked at the back of the content, "Niang said that there are nearly 500 rabbits in the rabbit shed, and that ducks can enter the water."

Hearing this, song Xintong felt that Lu's mother had been talking about chickens and ducks. "Does mother go to Houshan every day?"

Lu Yunkai said, "yes, my mother doesn't like to go to the village. Now she goes to the back mountain to help feed the rabbits. It's OK. She doesn't have to stay at home all day."

"What happened to the workshop?"

"Poplar said that it was almost done. It was estimated that all the powder stored would be finished before the Mid Autumn Festival in August. He went to Xinghua village again and started to dig the pond."

"What about the people over there in the village? Village head Xu, do they still rush? " Song Xintong asked immediately.

"I dare not. You've given them a cheap rent. They're too grateful." Lu Yunkai said with a smile, "Xie Yi is a smart man. He said that because of my Lord's presence in the village, you have reduced your rent and put your good reputation on your head."

"He's really good. He's honest and kind, just like mother-in-law Qiu's family." Song Xintong thought about it and said, "after that, please ask Uncle Zhu to help us look at the remaining 70 or 80 mu of land."

"Yes."

"After a while, we'll have to plant rape and wheat, and then we'll have to ask Uncle Zhu to help us do it." Song Xintong moved his limbs for a while, "do you have anything else to say?"

"No more."

"No? Then I'll go to the kitchen. " Song Xintong walked slowly to the kitchen, Daya was already boiling water, "girl."

Song Xintong turned over the food prepared by the people sent by Mingzhao, including meat, vegetables and two chickens and ducks. "Is there an ice cellar here?"

"There are girls, but there is no ice below." Big Ya said.

I think Jiang Mingzhao hasn't been here in the past two or three years, so he won't be preparing any more. "Then ask if there are ice sellers. If there are two pieces, if not, the meat will have to be cooked together this evening."

Big Ya should a, "that slave maidservant goes now."

After a while, Daya came back empty handed, "girl, the maidservant asked the people nearby. They all said that there was no ice merchant. They wanted to buy it with them, but they all said that they didn't have it at home. Only the rich people have it."

Ice is a luxury for ordinary people. If you don't have it, you can make it and eat it together.

Song Xintong commanded Daya to kill all the chickens and ducks. The chickens were used to make soup, the ducks were used to cook konjac, and a few kilos of meat were directly made into braised pork. The rest of the vegetables were not made, and they won't be bad tomorrow.

At the beginning of Xu Shi, dinner was ready.

It's late in summer, and now it's still bright. When you look up, you can see the rosy clouds in the sky. It's gorgeous.

The four sat at the table under the Begonia tree and had dinner. Daya is holding a big pot, half braised meat, half konjac duck, sitting on the threshold of the kitchen eating.

There are only two dishes and one chicken soup, but the amount is very large. Song Xintong has a good appetite today. He chews a lot of bones, and his stomach is full before he stops.

"Sister, eat well." Xiao Bao's mouth is full of oil. "It's better than the inn."

"What about the midday restaurant?" Song Xintong scooped a bowl of Chicken Soup for Lu Yunkai, and then asked him.

"Ah Jie is delicious." Dabao said immediately.

"I also think it's my sister who makes it delicious." Xiao Bao echoed.

"If it's delicious, eat more." Song Xintong looked at not much food left, and looked at Daya: "Daya can be full, there are still some."

Big Ya belched, "girl, I'm full."

Song Xintong chuckled, "if you're full, you'll have to put them in the well, so they can be put in tomorrow."

The water in the well is not so cool as that in the pool in the mountain.

After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Lu Yunkai went to study in his study. He bought several books from the bookstore these days and is still studying slowly.

Song Xintong went back to his bedroom and slowly cleaned up the things they had bought these days.

Daya came in with the brocade and gifts from Jiang Mingzhao: "girl, where do you put these things?"

Song Xintong looked at what she had in her hand, then looked inside the room and pointed to the table outside: "put it on the table first."

"I don't know what's inside." Song Xintong opened several gift boxes and found that there was an old ginseng and some expensive jewelry inside.

Song Xintong hurriedly took these to Lu Yunkai's study. "This is something that Mr. Jiang sent when he went to the inn to apologize today. I just found out now. What should I do? Do you want to return it? "

Lu Yunkai looked at the contents of the box and frowned, "put it here, I'll send it back another day."
