After crossing, I want to be with you every day

Chapter 23 I Am My Sister's Biggest Reliance
Lu Daxiong told Wang about his plan early the next morning.

Mrs. Wang is also very happy, she still has a lot of pennies in her hand, and it doesn't cost much to buy some chickens and ducks.

And thinking of how happy my daughter-in-law was when she ate egg custard last night, she must also like to eat eggs. It's better to raise some at home, so as not to have to change them with other people's homes.

Mrs. Wang also raised chickens and ducks before, but later the family had a hard time, so she had to sell and kill them.

Now that these poultry can be raised again, Mrs. Wang is very happy.

Later that day, someone brought a few chickens, and they were still half-grown chickens.

Seeing Chen Xingyan's puzzled expression, Mrs. Wang explained: "This is raised by a family in the next village, and there have been some accidents in his family, and he was in a hurry to exchange some money. I happened to find an old sister-in-law, and introduced Give it to me."

Chen Xingyan nodded. She doesn't know how to raise chickens. To be honest, she has never seen a chicken.

In the last life, I grew up in the city. In the last days, animals also mutated. How dare I touch these things casually?
Lu Xiaoniu was quite excited.

"Mom, I have nothing to do, and I can't help with the things in the field. From now on, I will do the feeding of the chickens and ducks."

Chen Xingyan looked at him, but said nothing.

There are elders at home, so she doesn't need to talk too much.

Wang frowned slightly, "Don't you still want to read and write?"

"Mom, I'm studying at home now, and my elder brother said that I need to exercise properly so that I can strengthen my muscles and bones."

Mrs. Wang thinks about it, the wheat is about to harvest in the field, the daughter-in-law is a delicate person, and her hands are precious, she must not be spoiled, she must go to the field, the chickens and ducks can be fed by the calf.

After Lu Laohan came back, he used the old fence that was removed earlier to surround a simple chicken coop.

Because I raised chickens earlier, I still have an old cage, which can hold more than a dozen chickens at night, and it can still be used.

Lu Laohan found two old mats from the west room and put them on top of the cage.

As soon as Lu Xiaoniu rolled his eyes, he went to the east courtyard to pick up a few broken tiles and put them directly on the straw mat, so that he didn't have to worry about the wind and rain.

Chen Xingyan has lived here for a few months, and he really likes the pastoral life here.

Leaving aside her own experience in her previous life, she only said that the original owner lived in a scholarly family before, but the inner house was not peaceful.

That mother-in-law was also not tolerant, she tried to murder Chen Xingyan several times, and in the end, she came up with such a vicious idea of ​​selling him off.

Chen Xingyan was in a hurry to contact his family because he didn't want the aunt to spread bad words about the concubine's indiscretion.

Since he inherited this body, he must do something for the original owner.

It's just that it's been more than a month since the letter was sent out, and my brother still hasn't replied to the letter, Chen Xingyan is still a little anxious in his heart.

How did she know that a little brother was recuperating in a one-bedroom farmhouse less than twenty miles away from the capital.

The family letter written by Chen Xingyan was lying safely in the little brother's bloody bundle.

At that time, in the dormitory of a certain academy in the capital, Chen Xinglou coughed.

The servant hurried over to help him up, "Master, drink the medicine."

Chen Xinglou took the medicine bowl with a pale face and drank it down.

Yesterday he received a family letter from Jiangnan, which was written to him by a younger brother. In the letter, it stated that Chen Xingyan had a serious illness and was sent to Zhuangzi by his father to recuperate two months ago, but no one knew what illness he had.

Chen Xinglou was so anxious that he coughed up blood.

Chen Xinglou and Chen Xingyan are brothers and sisters of the same mother. Their biological mother was a good concubine of the Chen family, but the biological mother was weak and died of illness a few years ago. After that, he knew that his sister's life in the inner house was difficult.

Chen Xinglou wanted to help him a lot, but he was a man, so he couldn't always go to the inner courtyard. Besides, he had a lot of schoolwork, and his grandfather and father had high hopes for him, so he didn't dare to slack off.

Unexpectedly, he had only been away from home for half a year, and such news came.

For a moment, Chen Xinglou really regretted it.

If he had known this, he should have brought his sister to Beijing with him.

"Master, yesterday you sent Ah Zhong back to inquire about the news, don't worry, the master has always loved the young lady, and you are the young lady's greatest reliance, if something happens to you, who can the young lady rely on? "

This is the key point.

Chen Xinglou naturally calmed down a lot.

"Yes, you are right. I am my sister's biggest reliance. Three years later, if I can go to high school, then my sister's life will definitely be easier."

"Master, let's take care of our bodies first, and then wait for news from Ah Zhong."

Although the water transportation is well developed now, no matter how fast Ah Zhong travels, it will take more than a month to go back and forth, and with the need to inquire about news, it is impossible to expect to come back too early.

"Okay, I see, go and get me the book on the table."

"Yes, sir."

Seeing that the young master had finally pulled himself together, the boy felt relieved.

What he said just now was actually selfish.

It's not just the young lady who is counting on the young master, they servants are also counting on the master to be successful.

He has been with this young master since he was a child, and he knows that although the young master is a concubine, he is the most talented among the young masters, and he is often praised by the grandfather and master of the family, and he is quite famous in the south of the Yangtze River.

If the young master collapses because of this, then those servants like them will not have an easy life in the future.

Once the grandfather and the master blamed it, they were the servants who would bear the brunt of the punishment.

Have to be careful!

On this day, Mrs. Wang came back with a happy smile, and there was still meat in the basket on her body.

"Mom, why are you so happy today?"

"Haha, Maverick, your eldest brother is blessed, and our family is also blessed!"

Lu Xiaoniu's eyes were wide open, "Mother, is there a happy event again?"

"That's right! Your sister-in-law let me get the double-sided embroidery from the embroidery workshop today, but the shopkeeper there was shocked! She gave me five taels of silver right away, and asked me to bring it back to make a deposit, and let me make it tomorrow. I'll take your sister-in-law to the embroidery workshop."

Lu Xiaoniu's eyes widened suddenly, "Double-sided embroidery?"

Lu Xiaoniu went to school before, and there were some rich children as students together.

He has never seen double-sided embroidery before, but he only heard it mentioned by those rich young masters. He only said that the double-sided embroidery needle method is unique, and even if it is only palm-sized, it is very valuable.

It turned out that his sister-in-law was so capable that she could embroider on both sides?
I heard that it started from the south of the Yangtze River. Apart from the famous Xiu Niang, how can others have the opportunity to get in touch with this?
