Chapter 164 Leisurely
Xing'er and the others finished paying the rations, and the village head and other households couldn't stop thanking Xing'er. They had been blessed by Xing'er today, otherwise they didn't know how long they would have to wait. It would be a day and a night. routine.

This was the first time they handed over the food so quickly, so they were naturally happy that they didn't have to wait so hard.

In their village, the life in the village is not bad. It is neither the best nor the worst in the surrounding villages, but they don't know anyone in the yamen, so they have to wait a long time to pay food in previous years.

Of course, otherwise everyone would be wiped out, even the households queuing next to Xinger and Liu Changsheng have a good relationship with Xinger's family, some other families lined up behind, and some wanted to squeeze past together I also followed the dipping, but the movement was slow, and I didn't get it.

Some people saw Myolie and the others pay the rations, said good things to Myolie, and asked Myolie to help them say that they also wanted to go to the front to pay, but Myolie didn’t agree. She can't just help out with someone who knows her, why not.

Those people also knew this reason, so even if they were rejected, they didn't say anything.

Back home, Shen Shi and Shen Jiayu saw that Xing'er and Liu Changsheng had come back so early, they were quite strange. When they asked about the situation, they not only lamented that it's good to know people, but also lamented that the girls usually don't give gifts in vain. Are you busy?

Xing'er's family has finished paying the rations, and she is not busy. She has nothing else to do except make snacks every day. Looking at the new wheat, Xing'er asked Liu Changsheng to pull some wheat to grind the flour.

When the new noodles arrived home, Xing'er led the people to get busy. Pancakes, egg pancakes, and cakes made from new noodles tasted different from old noodles. The aroma of wheat was stronger and more delicious.

Xing'er also fried a lot of oily things, and brought some to Wu Yueying and the others when she went to Anfu the next day.

Xing'er didn't expect that just after she finished making Wu Yueying's mask, the old lady sent someone to invite her, and Yao's mask was not done, so she led Xing'er to the old lady's place.

After Xing'er left, she found out that Yao Shi ordered a portion of the food she brought to the old lady. The old lady had eaten well, and knowing that it was from Xing'er, she sent someone to invite Xing'er. .

"Sit down quickly, you girl didn't even tell me to come and see me when you came, why, I'm afraid I'll win your money."

The old lady was joking.

"Isn't it, old madam, you are playing cards well now, I can't even beat you."

Xing'er boasted.

The old lady is willing to hear others praise her for her good fight, so when Xing'er said it, she was very happy.

"This oily fruit is fried well, what are these called? Why haven't I eaten it?"

The old lady pointed to the oily stuff brought by Xing'er on the plate. She recognized the oily fruit, but Xing'er was fried soft, which tasted just right to her, unlike the hard fried ones made by the cook in the house, she didn't want to eat it after one bite .

In addition, there are several kinds, some are crispy and delicious, some are soft, and they all taste good.

"This one is called oil grate, it's more crispy, but I made it thinner, so the old lady can eat it, this one is twisted doughnuts, this one is called Shaqima, they..."

Xing'er introduced them one by one, these things are very common in modern times, but they are not available here, maybe in other towns, but not in this town, that's why Xing'er came to Anfu, just to eat fresh.

"What do you cook, you always think about me, and it doesn't hurt you in vain. When I eat your fried food, it's not only delicious, but also full of noodles."

The old lady nodded, she felt very happy in her heart, as she got older, she would like to be remembered by others, like Xing'er, she didn't come every day, but she wanted to give her something, which made her feel very appropriate.

"This is new flour made from wheat grown at home. This new flour is full of flavor."

Myolie said something.

The old lady nodded and understood. Yao took Xing'er's words to heart. It turns out that new noodles are better than old noodles. There are many noodles in the mansion, but they are all old noodles. It's time to get a batch of new noodles. Chen Mian, there are so many servants in the mansion, they don't have to worry about food.

When Xing'er came, she had to fight with the old lady, and the old lady liked to fight with Xing'er.

Xing'er sees that the old lady and others are quite proficient in playing, it doesn't matter if they are not familiar with it, the old lady now plays twice a day, playing with different players, is she not familiar with it?
Xing'er taught some new rules, such as Xiaoqi pairs, all in one color and so on.

"It's still like this. I've played it several times. What's the name? There are many pairs in my hand, but I can't touch it. I didn't expect to be able to play like this. If I knew it earlier, then what's the matter?" Count the money."

The old lady was very excited when she heard what Xing'er said, she likes new ways to play.

The rest are also interested.

"It's not easy to be fooled like this, so it costs a lot of money. For example, those who type one penny, usually one penny, and this kind of bullshit, can get three pennies."

Xing'er was talking about the money, of course she was just giving a rough idea, she didn't know how much the old lady and the others usually play, but as long as she plays, it's a penny.

"That's good, come on, come on, call quickly, and watch me give you a complete look."

The old lady lifted her spirits and expressed that she wanted to be a big fool, but she lost one card and became a husband. She looked at Xing'er, then at everyone, and wanted to play tricks, but forget it, play tricks, once in a while , she knows that everyone is willing to coax her, but it's not good if you always play tricks.

When playing cards, Xing'er occasionally told a joke or a short story, which everyone was very interested in listening to, so they had a great time playing, even if they lost money, no one was impatient.

"You girl come here more often, I'd like you to come."

When Xing'er left, the old lady said again that she really wanted Xing'er to be here, the atmosphere was different, and everyone coaxed her and would also be willing to make her happy, but she was in the same family, and she knew what these juniors were all too familiar with. It's like this, only Xing'er, you don't know what Xing'er will say, for her, it's different.

"Zhong, I will come here often when I have nothing to do in the future, and you will bother me when you come."

Xing'er teased, this old lady is really nice, otherwise she wouldn't come here all the time.

"I'm not bothered. I wish you could come every day."

After the old lady finished speaking, she asked someone to bring some things to Xing'er, and then sent Xing'er and Chunhua back.

Xing'er was brought back by An's carriage now, and everyone was accustomed to her late return, and they all knew that the old lady must be pulling Xing'er to play cards. As long as it was nothing else, Shen Jiayu would not say anything, and An Zu was not in the backyard either. Wu Yueying and her daughter are also getting along well, as long as nothing happens, she will be happy.

In June, the weather became even hotter. Now when Xing'er went to the town, An's carriage would pick her up and deliver some snacks before bringing Xinger into the mansion. The Yao family and the old lady were afraid that Xing'er would feel hot, so they did Willing to come more.

Many people in the village said that the An family treated Xing'er really well, and they treated her like a young lady. The An family did not do this to the Zheng family. Xing'er talked, saying that Xing'er had helped An's family a lot, that the old lady and his wife liked Xing'er, and asked them to come over to play with her, talk, nothing else, and said that An's family was good, and Xing'er was also a good person.

The Zheng family is like this, who can say anything.

On this day, Xing'er was taken to Anfu again by carriage, and when she arrived at the old lady's place, the old lady saw Xing'er and Chunhua coming in, and hurriedly asked someone to fetch water for Xing'er to wipe her hands.

Yes, now Chunhua doesn't have to wait at the servant's place, the old lady asked Chunhua to follow Xing'er, and the treatment has been improved.

The old lady let Xing'er eat fruit, Xing'er looked at the peaches, pears, plums, and watermelons on the table, and she picked up a piece of watermelon.

In fact, there is no shortage of fruits at home. Many people in the village have fruit trees, and they often give them to Xinger. As soon as the peaches come, someone brings them to Xinger.

The peaches are not too big, but the taste is very good, juicy and peachy, Xing'er likes it very much.

There is no shortage of plums and pears. They don't have watermelons in the village, but Xing'er has them too. She didn't buy them, but Zhou's family gave them to them.

Speaking of the Zhou family, Xing'er rescued Zhou Tiecheng, Zhou Tiecheng came to the door once after he got well, but he didn't see Xing'er, he came in the morning and Xing'er was not at home.

The Zhou family and the others have watermelon growers. As soon as the watermelons came, the Zhou family sent two to Xing'er's family. Zhou's father and Chen Liu personally sent them, saying that they knew that there were no watermelon growers in this village. Try it out.

As for Zhou Tiecheng, he is working in the town now, and his body is well taken care of. The Zhou family is very grateful to Xing'er, and they also said that their daughter-in-law gave birth to a grandson for their family, and now the family is doing well.

Xing'er was very happy to hear that, and even more happy to eat watermelon. The sandy watermelon is not like the watermelon in modern times, and it doesn't have so many names. It's delicious and it's over.

"When you leave, take two back and give your grandmother and mother a taste."

Seeing that Xing'er likes to eat watermelon, the old lady said something.

"Okay, thank you old lady."

Xing'er complied, and she was not polite, now she has already figured out the old lady's temper, since the old lady said yes, she gave it sincerely, if you continue, the old lady will be happy.

Eating fruit, playing cards, and there is a maid fan behind her. There is no ice in the old lady's room. She is old, and I am afraid that she will not be able to bear it.

When Xinger went back, she brought a lot of fruit. When she got home, the coachman helped to move it down. Shen Jiayu and others were helpless. Every time Xinger went, most of them would bring something back. The old lady was really afraid that they would not be able to eat it. what.

Xing'er didn't go to Anfu the next day. At noon, she and Chunhua moved a big watermelon to build the house. The person who built the house was sitting in a cool place to rest at noon. very happy.

Xing'er cut up the watermelon and asked everyone to share it, and she took a piece for Liu Changsheng.

"Why is it so hot?"

Liu Changsheng felt sorry for Xing'er, he knew that Xing'er was afraid of heat.

"You are not hot at work, so I just walk a few steps to get hot."

Myolie wiped the sweat off her head. To be honest, the weather in this era is not as hot as it is in modern times, but in this era there are no fans, air conditioners, and people wear a lot of clothes. Unlike modern times, short sleeves, shorts, and skirts are all available in summer here. Long sleeves, long skirts or trousers, so you will feel hot.

Xing'er looked at Liu Changsheng, Liu Changsheng was dark and thin, but he was in good spirits.

"How do you feel?"

What Liu Changsheng was asking about was the house. Most of his house has been built. The main reason is that it is too hot, and those who work at noon have to rest, otherwise the progress will be faster than this.

"not bad."

Xing'er nodded after seeing it. Although the workers in the village said that they didn't have much experience, they did a good job and they were quite solid.

"After my house is built, it will be faster when I build your house."

During this period of time, Liu Changsheng led people to work from dawn to dusk. All kinds of things required him to run, which can be regarded as running out of experience. After the three of them finished their work, he felt that he could lead people to build houses for them. .

"Xing'er, you said that when the house is finished, how about I lead them to build the house?"

Liu Changsheng asked Myolie for her opinion.

"Don't go, it's too hard, look at how much you have been hacked now, you have cultivated one, let him lead the people to do it, these people will not be idle, just follow me and Aunt Xue to plant medicinal materials , earn more than this."

Xing'er shook her head, building a house earned hard money, and Liu Changsheng had to lead people to work, it was too hard, she didn't want Liu Changsheng to earn this hard money, when the time came when they planted the medicinal materials, Liu Changsheng would do it. Earn more than that.Besides, if it doesn't work, you can sell vegetables in winter. She, Wu Yueying and the old lady said through the mouth, the old lady said, it would be great if there are vegetables in winter, let Xing'er just send them to Anfu, there will be no less Myolie's silver.

Wu Yueying also said that she can send her to her mother's house at that time, and there will be no loss of money, so they will not be short of money in the future.

"okay, I get it."

Liu Changsheng was not sad when he heard that Myolie refused, but felt warm in his heart, because he knew that Myolie was afraid of his hard work, but he didn't feel bitter at all.

Myolie returned home and began to study making cold cakes, jelly noodles, ice bowls and so on. Some ingredients she was not willing to buy, or were not easy to make, so she told Yao Shi, and Yao Shi made it for her. She will take part of it to An Mansion for the old lady, Yao Shi and others to eat.

Eating cold cakes, jelly noodles, ice bowls and so on in summer is not to mention how refreshing, the old lady has to be watched, Xing'er is afraid that she will eat too much, the elderly, with a weak stomach, can't stand it if she eats too much.

"Sister Xing'er, don't you buy anything today?"

Chunhua saw Xing'er lying on the rocking chair, sitting under the tree and eating peaches, she asked Xing'er, this time Xing'er didn't go to town, she was busy in the morning, now she took a nap, she thought Xing'er would continue to make things, I didn't expect Xing'er to look relaxed now.

"I'm lazy today, and I don't do anything while resting."

Xing'er ate a peach, she knew that her aunt might be coming, so she was a little lazy, she didn't want to move, she just wanted to lie down like this.

"Sister, what else do you want to eat, I'll get it for you."

Chunhua asked Xing'er, since Sister Xing'er doesn't want to move, then she will serve Sister Xing'er.

"I don't want to eat, these peaches are supporting me."

Xing'er took a break, and there was a sweet smell of peaches.

Xing'er asked Chunhua to go to work, she swayed leisurely, looked at the people working under the shed, then closed her eyes, and continued to sway, she felt that such a day was really enjoyable, and hoped that Anfu would not come to pick her up tomorrow , she wants to put it at home for a few days, and be a salted fish for a few days.

"That's it, Xing'er, sister-in-law, someone is coming to your family."

At this time, a sound came into Xing'er's ear, who is here?It can't be from Anfu, right?No, people in Anfu know her family and are very familiar with her. Who is that?
 After sending out 10 catties of rice, it was finally picked up. There is food at home, so I don’t panic and can rest assured.
