Chapter 308 Escaped
The courtyard door creaked open, and Mrs. Zhang was a little surprised when she saw Mrs. Han, "Isn't this Xiao Tai's mother? I heard that Shen Yi is back, congratulations! I'm making pancakes, I’m thinking of sending some over later.”
“No, no, my Xiao Tai baked durian cakes and cooked papaya, white fungus, red dates and milk soup. She said that your Xiao Xi likes to eat sweets, so she asked me to deliver them. Come here."
"Oh! How funny! When Xiaoxi was a child, she drank goat milk from Xiaomo, and almost all the clothes she wore were from Xiaomo. Forget about just drinking, why did you bring food in person?" Mrs. Zhang blushed and was very embarrassed.
At this time, a little head poked out of the door and smiled sweetly at Mrs. Han, "Mother-in-law!"
"Hey! Our little Xi is so good! Come on, come on, my mother-in-law has brought you food. Try it while it's hot. If you don't have enough, go over and tell your mother-in-law, okay?"
Han said lovingly He touched Shen Xi's head, ignored Mrs. Zhang's obstruction, left the things behind, turned around and ran away.
Mr. Zhang chased her out, but Han was nowhere to be seen.
Shen Xi shouted in the room, "Grandma, come and eat, the milk soup is so delicious."
"You kid! You can't keep taking advantage of your Aunt Su. ”
Shen Xi said obediently: "Grandma, don't worry, I will be filial to you and Aunt Su when I grow up."
One sentence coaxed Mrs. Zhang to lose her temper.
Xiong Kai listened silently to the clear voice of the girl in the yard, recalling in his mind the scene where the girl stuck her head out and quickly disappeared around the corner.
Han didn’t know that he had escaped a disaster and was still delivering things door to door.
The Xu family also sent food to Shen Mu's house.
The relatives of their family were also gathered in the yard to look at the royal gifts, but it was noisy here, not as happy as theirs, and there were still people who were interested in the royal gifts.
Mrs. Xu entered the door and cleared her throat, put down the things, smiled and congratulated Huang Xinghua, and said: "Our family Shen Yi said that the emperor gave them things, and it is really a share for each person. How can your family You have to put these things away. Shen Yi said that they reported it to the county government. There are words engraved on the bottom of the gold. They cannot be used and can only be used as gifts. You'd better get one like Shen Yi. It’s only for storage in the yard.”
“Ah? Is there any other explanation?” Huang Xinghua’s eyes widened with confusion.
Shen Dagou scratched his head and said: "Mom, the marshal seems to have said these words, but at that time I was too happy to understand and didn't understand."
"You kid, how can you do such an important thing? Don't you understand?" Huang Xinghua was speechless and reluctant to scold the child, so she read it lightly.
Mrs. Xu hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Don't blame the big dog! He paid for these with his life. You should praise him. But the yard cannot be ambiguous. Hurry up and ask the village chief to buy the land next to your house." Make a big yard to serve.”
“Okay! I’ll ask Shen Yi later and we’ll do whatever they want.” Huang Xinghua promised solemnly.
Xu put down her things and Shi Shiran left.
As soon as she left, the quiet courtyard became noisy again.
A woman said suspiciously: "Ms. Xu is just talking nonsense! Why can't I use the reward given by the emperor? It must be a bluff!"
This time no one answered her. If Mrs. Xu is bluffing, you will know just by asking. Shen Dagou is not the only one who has the things given by the emperor. Besides, they did see something engraved under the gold, but they just don't understand what is engraved, so they don't dare to talk nonsense.
Because of what Xu said, the relatives of the Shenmu family had no intention of staying here anymore, and they all tried their best to inquire.
Huang Xinghua closed the courtyard door and said with a slumped face: "The fourth aunt is so shameless. We didn't see them helping us when our family was in trouble. Now everyone's life is better. It seems that the big dog got something good. She said we should divide it, why didn’t she just come and grab it?” Don't worry about her, she just has the kind of temperament that hates others and laughs at others, and wants to take advantage of every good thing. In the past, their room was the best in our family, and they laughed at us a lot. Now our family is overwhelmed. It would be strange if she doesn't make trouble with them.
As long as what Shen Yi says is true, she can't make any waves."
"It's just Ge Yingren!" Huang Xinghua was still indignant. She carefully put away the things given by Yu and asked Wei Erya to take them back to the yard.
Huang Xinghua said: "Aunt Xu also said just now that these things were all passed through the county government office. No one can take them away, they can only belong to your room.
You take it back and keep it for now. Later, we will expand the yard and build a good yard to hang the plaque.”
The others immediately helped Wei Erya move the things.
Shen Dagou looked at his younger brothers and sisters who had grown up a lot and asked: "How is the situation at home? Are you still working for Sister Su Tai?"
Shen Ergou and Shen Tian both nodded obediently.
Shen Ergou said: "Brother, since you are back, I won't go over there."
The room suddenly became quiet.
Shen Dagou shook his head and said with a smile: "No, you do your job well, I'm not in a hurry. I have been going through life and death on the battlefield these years. I haven't slept peacefully for a long time, so I plan to help my family with farm work in the spring and take a rest. "We'll talk about it in a year."
Huang Xinghua was heartbroken, "It's okay even if you don't do anything for a year. You can do whatever you want. Mom supports you. If you want to work, you can do it. Our village is now growing crops." All the strawberries in the village are made into strawberry jam, and the sales are better than before. This year, Su Tai packaged more than half of the strawberry jam in the village and sent it to the imperial capital. Some time ago, her relative came back from the imperial capital and said that the sales were good, and she would like more next year. goods.
I heard that Su Tai meant to let the villagers plant more crops. Our village has no land, but Liujiazhuang does! If I get too busy, I would also like to buy some more land. "
After listening to Huang Xinghua's careful talk about the situation in the village, Shen Dagou felt confident.
At the same time, Shen Yi saw off the last wave of guests, closed the courtyard door, and turned around to enter the bathroom. .
Su Tai went in to help him rub his back, and mentioned Su Chuan and Su Ming’s business.
“I originally wanted to help cousin Yunyun, but I didn’t expect them to. We got it together very well. We sent two goods to the imperial capital this year. One was strawberry jam, and the other was rice, brown sugar, and some shelf-stable fruits that I got for them. It was already November when the items were delivered to the imperial capital, and they were in a hurry. At that time, there was no need to worry about not being able to sell it.
This year, I spent 8,000 taels on strawberry jam alone. Adding in other things, our family earned tens of thousands taels. "
Shen Yi was shocked: "So many! Does anyone else know? "
Su Tai pondered and said: "My cousin and A Ming just know it, but they also made a lot of money. "
Shen Yi's tense nerves relaxed, "That's good, they trust me, don't worry. ”
