Splendid glory of a girl from another world

Li Qiusui took the opportunity to change into the clothes before going to the county seat on the carriage, and arrived home just in time for dinner.

Mrs. Liu stood outside, gossiping with Mrs. Ma and the others. Seeing Li Qiusui come back, she followed them into the door.

Mrs. Liu took the cloth from Li Qiusui, and the two of them walked home together, "How come it takes a whole day to walk? Hurry up and wash it, there is beef to eat tonight."

Li Qiusui felt guilty, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you get the beef?"

Isn't it impossible to slaughter farm cattle casually?
Her village in Fucheng raised cattle, and it was said that the Guo family brought them from outside the pass.This kind of cattle has a lot of meat, short and thin limbs, can't do farm work, and is not banned by the government. The disadvantage is that it is difficult to breed.The cattle on the village were all brought up by bought cubs. The Guo family kept a few of them, and they were not willing to slaughter them in the past two years.

But the Chinese New Year is not a holiday, and I haven't heard that Zhuangzi is coming. Could it be that something happened?

Seeing her puzzled, Mrs. Liu explained: "It's the cattle from your aunt's village. They've been used a lot for a while, and they've been exhausted for a long time. Someone came down from the government office to look at them. Your aunt is close to that family, so she bought them. A few catties, I brought half of it to us."

Only this kind of accidental death of cattle, the common people have the opportunity to eat two bites of meat.That is to say, the laws and regulations of this dynasty have looser control over cattle, sheep and livestock. Otherwise, if your own cattle dies accidentally, the meat on your body will not be your turn to eat.

Aunt Li married into the next-door village. She said it was the next-door village, but in fact she just crossed a wooden bridge at the east end of the village.There is no clear boundary between the fields in the villages on both sides, so Aunt Li can go back to her mother's house as soon as she goes to the fields.

Mrs. Liu didn't know what she thought of, so she couldn't help sighing, "It's better to be close to home when a girl's family gets married."

The brothers and sisters in the family have all reached the age of marriage, and Li Qiusui is not surprised by her mother's sudden emotion.

After buying the fabrics, Liu felt that they were better than those in the town, and the colors of the patterns were also correct. "The things from the county are better. If I knew it, I would have brought your sister to go with you. I said, did you buy the herbal seeds? Your grandma's." The fruit trees are still young, and the hills of our house are not full of fruit trees. Now it seems that the weather is going well. Next spring, I discussed with your father to plant some other kinds of fruit trees, and we will not delay planting herbs for a few more years. What, You still have to go to the county to buy seeds, don’t our family have a lot of seeds?”

Li Qiusui responded humbly, she was already hungry, afraid that her mother would continue to ask about going to the county seat, and there would be beef in front of her to whet her appetite, so she said vaguely: "Well, everything in the county town is good. There will be another time , take my sister and let’s go together. The more varieties of herbs the better, this time I bought some with a longer cycle, and they are more valuable after planting. Plant all the mountainous areas where it is difficult to grow fruit trees. It is not a small benefit to become a talent after a few years."

Seeing that the little girl said the truth, Liu Shi was also happy, "Hey, Sui Sui, mother asked you something!"

What's the matter, ask!

Li Qiusui saw that her mother's ink was not finished, so she grabbed a piece of cloth to hold her.

"...It's the two girls from the Chu family who have correspondence with you. Didn't you write back to them a few days ago? What do you think of that big Chu girl?"

Mrs. Liu was talking about the two nieces of Mrs. Li Changan's family. Why did her mother remember to ask this?
Li Qiusui organized his language and said: "The one who keeps in touch with me is Miss Chu. Miss Chu is very talented. She can compose poems and embroider flowers. She has a delicate and shy personality. Miss Da Chu... the knowledge is the same. Not bad, although she has a gentle personality, maybe she lost her mother early, and she still has to protect her younger sister, so she behaves more gracefully. All in all, they are very good people."

Mrs. Liu looked thoughtful, and Li Qiusui wanted to ask a few more questions, but Mrs. Liu didn't answer, "Sui Sui, go wash your hands and get ready for dinner. Give me all the fabric, and I'll cut it for you tomorrow." New clothes."

Dinner was on the table, and there was a big pot of beef stew among them.

It is rare for Li Changan to have Muxiu at home. Since he went to the county to study, he has been home for ten and a half months. Today, Li Qiusui returned home one step earlier. By this time, he was already at the table. "Sui, did you go to the county today? Why? Didn't you go to the academy to find me? I knew I'd wait for you to go home together."

Li Qiusui felt guilty and someone brought up the matter of going to the county seat, so he quickly changed the subject, "Fourth brother, you are really blessed to eat beef. It's rare that you can catch up with beef once. Ah! And lotus root, can you eat lotus root?" ?”

Li Sanzhu took the chopsticks first, "Yes, I saw some people eating in the village, so I bought some for us to add."

Xia He picked up a piece of lotus root and put it in his mouth. After eating, he couldn't help but praise: "Father, the lotus root is really delicious. It's time for us to start a pond this year. Then we can catch fish and loaches."

There are many ponds in Lijia Village, and there is one at the foot of the hill that Li Sanzhu bought.I bought lotus root seeds earlier and sprinkled a lot of fry.In the past two years of drought, there was no water in the pond, and no one went to the pond. The heavy rain in the past few months brought the lotus root back to life.Although it is not the season when the lotus root is the most glutinous, it is crisp and refreshing, and it has a different taste in the mouth.

Li Sanzhu said: "I don't think there are many fish, but we should be able to catch some loaches."

When talking about food, Li Qiusui also became more energetic, "Well, loach is also delicious. When the time comes, our family will make more tofu and stew it together."

……

After dinner, Li Sanzhu asked Li Qiusui about going to the county.

Li Qiusui couldn't tell the truth, so he racked his brains vaguely to say something, but Li Sanzhu said again: "Your Uncle Cheng will take me to visit an old friend in his county tomorrow. I heard that he knows the manager of the Changshun casino. If someone is willing to help you with a word, the matter of your fourth uncle will be over."

Li Qiusui was afraid that Li Sanzhu would really find some casino manager, so the good deeds she did would not be hidden.

Her father is good in everything, but he is a little afraid of his wife.

If her mother knew...

Li Qiusui was covered in white sweat from fright, and she was destined not to let Liu Shi know about it, a beating would be light, and she had to keep talking about it in her ear every day.

Li Qiusui called out "Father~" in a drawn-out voice, and reached out to shake Li Sanzhu's sleeve.

What's wrong?Why is it still sticky all of a sudden?
When Li Qiusui realized that she overreacted, she quickly sat up and said, "Father, you have already said to leave the matter to me. How could I not get it done? You don't need to go to the county seat tomorrow, Wang Mao appointed tomorrow." Lijiacun explained the matter clearly. My little fourth uncle never gambled at all, but was taken into the casino to join in the fun."

Li Sanzhu was surprised, "Really, what about the interest? What's the matter? It was your fourth uncle's fingerprint on it, and our family even posted more than 500 taels of silver!"

Li Qiusui was proud, "Of course it's true! The interest was borrowed by my fourth uncle on the help of others. I asked about it clearly."

Li Sanzhu and Liu Shi looked at each other, and Liu Shi said angrily: "You don't know how to fight with others, do you? Did you beat Wang Mao? Or did you threaten someone's family?"

I always feel that things are not that simple. This girl is so bold that she might really beat someone up.

Who are those people? How can I provoke such ordinary people as myself?
Li Qiusui didn't admit it, even if he was beaten to death, he couldn't admit it!
"No, I went to Wang Mao's house and met his wife and daughter. From the beginning to the end, I was very polite. I never did anything to Wang Mao, nor did I intend to threaten him."

She really didn't do anything to Wang Mao, she just tricked this guy a little bit, who made him smash the old house!
