The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 107 A Gift to My Family

After listening to Tang Butler's words, Lai felt that it was a big joke, so he said with a smile:

"Butler Tang, you must have made a mistake, right? Our family is so poor, how can we afford to buy honey to give to others? If there is honey in our family, we will keep it for ourselves and give it to others?"

"Butler Tang, honey is so precious, our family didn't buy honey for your young master, and as for our village, no one raises honey."

When Hongji said this, he forgot the time he saw his daughter eating honey.

"Little master, don't be fooled by the slave, I remember that the little baby in your arms brought out a crock of honey yesterday, and the slave sent the honey back to the house.

Everyone felt delicious after eating it, much better than the honey bought in the market, and it is very good for drinking honey tea and making snacks.

Our master and wife ordered that when I come here to do business, I must inquire about the place to buy honey and buy more honey to go back. I am also doing business, and I hope the little boss will let me know. "

Ye Shiqi was in her father's arms, when she heard the housekeeper asking Mitang, she looked at the housekeeper with cute eyes, but she blamed the housekeeper in her heart, if she wanted to ask Mitang, why didn't she ask secretly?
In front of her grandparents, in front of the public, even if her father knew it, he would not dare to say it, besides, how could he know?
Ye Shiqi could only pretend to be stupid, anyway, she was a child, no one would ask her.

"Honey, yesterday?" Lai was the first one to jump out after hearing this. Before her son could say anything, she had already thought of the box that the housekeeper took away yesterday, and also a pickle jar.

She remembered that the pickle jar belonged to their family, and everything in their family would be marked, and their names would be written on Wadi.

"That's right, our host family is very grateful to you for using such good honey. Let me ask here, where did you buy it? Or did your family raise honey?"

After the steward's words fell, the guards and the coachman also said one after another:
"We also heard yesterday that the host uses this honey to drink tea and make desserts, saying that it is delicious, and none of us have the good fortune to eat it."

"Of course you don't have to eat. You must not be able to eat your share. The old man can drink a cup of honey tea and eat a few pieces of snacks made of honey. Wow, that is delicious and fragrant."

The butler thought of yesterday's snacks with endless aftertaste, and said that sentence, which made everyone want to drool.

"That's our pickle jar, where did you get the honey? Hongji, did you secretly buy honey elsewhere?"

Lai has been guarding the yard and the house. If there is really something good, she would have found it and eaten it long ago.

"Mom, that's a pickle jar. Where did you get the honey? It's nothing. Maybe the housekeeper was joking with us." Hongji remembered after listening, and there was indeed such a thing.

After thinking about it, I felt something was wrong, could it be a little girl?
Hongji's back was sweating quietly. She remembered that the little girl and Siya ate honey during the busy farming season. Only he knew about it, and he couldn't ask Siya, and he couldn't ask why. It's a lot of secrets.

This is honey being discovered, the little girl will be in danger, and he can't even tell the rest of the family. If the mother and father find out, or the two younger sisters find out, it is really a big deal.

At this moment, he could only pretend, saying that the butler made a mistake, and blinked at the butler.

Steward Tang received Hongji's gaze, and he looked at this man thoughtfully. If this man refused to admit it in front of his family, it was someone who had something to hide from his family.

In this way, he can only ask Hongji quietly when there is no one else, and this matter can only end here, and find a chance to find honey.

"Oh, if you don't have it, you don't have it! I have another important event today. Is it right in your village?"

Hearing that the butler stopped talking about this topic, Hongji hurriedly said: "Yes, our village has the village head and Li Zheng, what can the housekeeper ask Li Zheng of our village?"

"Didn't you just talk to my little boss? If we want to build a wood factory in your village, we have to buy and rent land. It's a bit uneconomical to rent land. I'd better find you in Lizheng and buy the land on the side of the village road and the mountain. Some dry land, maybe cheaper."

"The land at the entrance of the village? It's all opened up by some people. There are many people at the end of the village. It's a bit troublesome to buy."

"Is there any land in your house?"

"no"

"It doesn't matter. As long as we find you in Lizheng, we will pay enough money. I believe that the villagers will still sell it. Besides, the farmers' land is still owned by the state. When we buy the land, they collect the money and don't have to pay taxes."

The butler's words made both Hongji and his father nod, only Lai said regretfully:
"In those years, those people opened up wasteland there, and there was no water source there, and it was difficult to plant there. It's a pity that our family didn't open up wasteland there, or we would have money selling the land now."

"It's too late to say anything now, how much wasteland can you open up? How many times have you worked on the two acres of land bought with the money earned by your family? In the past, it was the daughter-in-law who did the talking, but now the children do it. work."

"Old man, I'm just sorry, can you save me some face in front of the guests? Which pot is not mentioned?
Marrying a daughter-in-law is not to marry her back to enjoy the blessings. If young people don't work, do you want my old woman to work?As for those dolls, if they don't work, they will eat free food at home! "

Lai said so many words at once, her saliva spewed out, and everyone stayed away from her.

"Hmph, there are many reasons. I don't want to hear your nonsense here. If you have nothing to do, go back to your room!"

"I don't want to go back to the room, I want to watch here."

"I don't care about you..."

The couple were bickering here, and the housekeeper had signaled for Hongji to lead the way to Lizheng.

Hongji hugged his little daughter and tried to put her back in the room first, but was hugged tightly by his neck.

When she wanted to find Li Zheng, there was nothing wrong with him, so she hugged the little girl, Siya saw her father hugging the little sister, she pulled the hem of his father's clothes, and followed quickly with short legs.

The butler took out a gift box from the carriage loaded with wood, and was going to look for Li Zheng with the gift box.

Hongji stopped at the butler, and he stopped too. Seeing the butler taking something, he guessed it was a gift for Lizheng this time.

He was thinking to himself, the workers of the big family are really thoughtful, and they are not used to giving gifts like the players from the countryside.

When asking for help, give money even if you don't give gifts, otherwise there will be so many debts of favor.

"Hey, butler... Where are you taking the things? Isn't this going to be sent to my house?"

Mrs. Lai had already seen the gift in the hands of the butler, staring at it with sparkling eyes, thinking that the butler was another gift for their family, but who knew that the butler took the gift and was about to go out with the gift. people?
How can this be?Quickly called the housekeeper.
