Chapter 139 139. The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain
Liu watched helplessly as her own daughter fell into the arms of her mother-in-law. For the first time in her life, she was extremely envious of Xiao Man'er, and wished to be like Xiao Man'er, being taken away by her mother-in-law, which made her uneasy.

It's a pity that she can only think about it and envy her.

She has to stay at home to boil water and pour water for the elders and the county magistrate.

Yue Jiuyue led Xiao Man'er and did not dare to go to the lake to play, she herself is a landlubber, and the original owner was a girl in ancient times, so naturally she would not do things that violate female morality, it is strange that she knows water!

Therefore, she didn't dare to take Xiao Man'er to play by the lake, for fear that something might happen if she made a mistake.

She took Xiao Man'er to climb the mountain.

It is the back mountain behind their house.

"Grandma (grandma), where are you going?"

Xiao Man'er asked in a childish voice.

"Grandmother brought you here to climb the mountain. Have a look at this mountain. Do you like it? Grandmother wants to buy this mountain, and let Xiaoman be the king of the mountain in the future, okay?"

Saying this, Yue Jiuyue's mind automatically played a single song: The king asked me to patrol the mountains~
Yue Jiuyue chuckled.

"mom?"

Before Xiao Man'er could tell if it was good or not, she heard Yue Jiuyue's laughter, and her attention was immediately shifted.

"It's okay. Let's go, let's patrol the mountains!"

Yue Jiuyue held Xiao Man'er's little hand and patrolled the mountains together.

In the back mountain, you can see the home of Yue Jiuyue at the bottom of the mountain and the road by the lake at a glance.

This is why Yue Jiuyue brought Xiao Man'er to the back mountain.

She didn't want to stand foolishly by the lake in front of her house, and she didn't want to wander around alone. She didn't feel safe wherever she went.It is the best choice to have Xiao Man'er as a companion.

It was noon, and those people were still at her home.

Intuition told her that the sweet potatoes in her family must be at least one hundred and eighty catties less.

Mrs. Liu, who was serving tea at home, watched the sun rise higher and higher, but her mother-in-law was nowhere to be seen. She really didn't know how to prepare this lunch, mainly because since she married, the family had never entertained anyone. There is a precedent, she has no idea.

In fact, it’s not that they don’t have rules in their hearts. The main reason is that they are reluctant to part with food. After all, for such an old person, if one person makes six or seven sweet potatoes, one or two baskets of sweet potatoes will be gone.

It was not easy for the family to have surplus food, which was saved by eating wild vegetables every day, and it was suddenly given to others, she felt distressed, and felt that it would be better not to be conscious!
But she also knows that this kind of thinking is very unreasonable. When there are guests at home, of course it is necessary to prepare the best meals for them, and today's guests are either county magistrates or patriarchs. If she serves them with wild vegetables...

She dare not!
"Master County Magistrate, it's already noon, why don't you stay and have lunch together, and try this year's new food - sweet potato, this sweet potato is really sweet, fragrant, soft and waxy, my father is the best bite of."

When Liu Shi was struggling, she suddenly heard the village head's words, and she knew that it would be impossible to delay.

But her family's cooking pot is in the main room, and these people are not allowed to come out to cook. Give her a place?
"Then the official is disrespectful."

Mrs. Liu didn't understand what the county magistrate said. There was a "no" in the words. Could it be that he refused?
It's okay to refuse!Their family can save tens of catties of sweet potatoes, which can be sold for more than one tael of silver!
"Then, magistrate, why don't you go to Cao Min's house for dinner?"

The Liu family was confused again. What did the village chief mean by saying this? Could it be that the county magistrate agreed?

Why did he still say "no"?Isn't this misleading her!
