At this time, the old man came back from the mountains with Zhuzhu on his back and the boys. He also brought two little rabbits, each one was only the size of Zhuzhu’s fist, and they were very cute and furry.

Zhuzhu shouted excitedly from her carrier, "Mom, mom, look, grandpa caught a rabbit for me!"

Yang Lihua hurriedly greeted her and took the fat girl out to relieve the old man's burden.

"Dad, Zhuzhu is getting older. When the mountain roads are easy to walk, just let her walk a few steps on her own. It's too tiring for you to carry her on your back!"

The old man waved his hand carelessly and replied, "Da Hei carried her all the way. There was a section of the road that was too steep. I was afraid that she would fall, so I carried her for a while."

Yang Lihua had no choice but to tap her daughter's little nose, "You baby, you must be filial to your grandpa when you grow up, do you understand?"

"I know, mother, Zhuzhu wants some meat for grandpa!" Zhuzhu nodded her little head, her pigtails on her head becoming stubborn, and she just patted her chest and made a promise.

The old man was afraid that his granddaughter would tell him that another roe deer had taken the initiative to die near the wooden house, so he changed the subject and said to the women, "Don't worry, everyone. The young and old are all fine on the mountain. They have built two more buildings." There is a wooden house, and when you have some free time, you can go and live there."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Six."

"Sixth uncle, don't worry about it, we are not worried. These gentlemen eat, drink and have fun in the mountains all day long, but we work at home every day. It is not too late for us to be envious and jealous, who will worry about them!"

"Hahaha, that's right!"

The women were talking all over the place, and the courtyard seemed to be bustling with excitement.

After talking for a while, the women went home to cook and then dispersed.

Tai Yonglu, Tai Yongyue, and Chen Ruiyang were busy looking for a wooden box for the little rabbit to have a home. Zhuzhu followed and was not helping, and almost let the little rabbit run away. Fortunately, Sesame Ball was guarding it, and pushed the little rabbit back to Bala with one paw or not. From time to time, he raised his dog's face helplessly and looked at the sky.

This family is lucky that the dog is here, otherwise they would have dispersed long ago...

Yang Lihua didn't know that Gouzi had such a high regard for herself. After drying her cashmere clothes, she went to the kitchen to look at the food.

Liu Dongniang has always been a diligent person, and now there is no shortage of food at home. Naturally, she is focused on cooking. Today at noon, she made steamed buns with soy sauce, millet and red dates porridge, and two side dishes. It is nutritious and filling enough for the elderly and children. That's enough.

The two sisters were busy talking while they were busy. When it was busy, Tai Yonglu ran over and shouted, "Mom, someone is coming to the house!"

Yang Lihua was surprised and quickly took off her apron and went out.

Xizi was dressed as a coachman, accompanied by a half-sized boy, driving a cart pulling some boxes and baskets.

The old man stood by the car with the children and asked in a low voice, "Xizi, why are you here again? But Kang Cheng needs help with something?"

"No, no, don't worry, old man, our young master is fine!" Xizi responded with a smile, "Our young master promised to find some fun things for Miss Zhuzhu before, so he sent me to deliver them today. Of course, there is something I have entrusted to the old master to help with. .”

The old man didn't even look at the things in the car and asked, "What's the matter? Just tell me."

Xizi turned sideways to block the outsiders' eyes, quickly stuffed a letter into the old man's arms, and whispered, "This letter is from our young master to the general. It is not confidential, but it is helpful to the general. Our young master does not In order to contact the general, I can only leave it to the old man."

The old man understood, nodded, and then said loudly, "Oh, Mrs. Min is so polite, I just gave her a little corn seeds, why did I return so many thank you gifts!"

Xizi understood and responded loudly, "Master, you're so polite. It's as it should be. Unload the things quickly and I'll go back to deliver the errand."

The old man motioned to the boys to carry things into the courtyard, and then called Yang Lihua, "If you have anything to eat at home, bring some for your little brother. It'll be good for your stomach on the road."

Yang Lihua wanted to ask how her nephew was doing, but there were two old ladies sitting under a big tree not far away, collecting shoe soles, so it was hard for her to ask.

She responded, "Dong Niang steamed the buns, I'll pick up a few." Xizi quickly added, "Our master is saying that our mushroom sauce is delicious. I wonder if we still have it at home?"

"Yes!" Yang Lihua said happily, immediately agreed, and hurried to the kitchen.

Soon, she came out with a basket.There were two small jars of mushroom sauce and a package of meat buns in the basket, tightly covered with white cotton cloth.

Xizi quickly took it and carried it with her own hands, even reluctant to put it in the carriage.

After a brief salute, Xizi took the boy and drove away.

Sure enough, the two old ladies came up to talk with envy on their faces, "His sixth uncle, your family is accepting gifts again? These noble people in the city are so generous, and they give a car full of gifts."

Mr. Tai chuckled and replied, "The noble man is indeed generous, but courtesy must be reciprocated, and our family must return the favor. I would be embarrassed to enter someone's door without having 40 to [-] taels of silver for any gift!"

The two old ladies nodded and immediately felt balanced.

They don't receive generous gifts, so they don't have to pay back the gifts. After all, there isn't much benefit in walking around with rich people!

After chatting for a while, they took their sewing basket and went home.

Only then did Mr. Tai stop laughing and called Tai Yonglu to call He Shan over the row of houses.

Tai Yonglu grabbed two buns, gnawed them and ran away.

Yang Lihua sighed softly and asked, "Dad, will Kang Cheng bring trouble to our family by entrusting us with this matter?"

"No, don't worry." The old man shook his head and comforted his daughter-in-law, "Kang Cheng is a stable man, and the things he entrusts are not big things, and Xizi's dealings are considered hidden."

Yang Lihua felt relieved and went into the house to prepare lunch for the family, leaving the old man behind who didn't look so relaxed.

He didn't tell the truth to his daughter-in-law just now. Even if there was danger, he would not refuse to help.

The border guards need a clear leader, and the six princes need military power. If the two parties finally unite, it will open up a new world for the people of Wei.

What the Tai family has done today is, at a large scale, for the country and the people, and at a small scale, it is the first step in the family's rapid rise!
There is no free lunch in this world, any gain is accompanied by danger!

"Grandpa, it's time to eat!" Zhuzhu had seen enough of the little rabbit. Seeing her grandpa standing at the door, she ran over and hugged her grandpa's thigh.

The old man lowered his head and couldn't help but smile when he looked at his chubby granddaughter.

If it was before, he wouldn't dare to gamble, but now he has a baby bump to back him up!

"Okay, let's eat steamed buns!" The old man bent down and hugged his precious granddaughter, and slowly walked into the house!
When He Shan followed Tai Yonglu into Tai's house, the lunch table had just been set.

The old man warmly invited He Shan to eat with him. He Shan was a little reserved, so he let go after he pulled him to sit down.

The buns made by Liu Dongniang were of course first-class in taste. He Shan ate eight or nine of them in one go before stopping with his arms around his bulging belly.

The old man sent him out, took out the envelope and stuffed it in, "Send it to the military camp in person and give it to the general. The general will naturally know what's going on after seeing it!"

He Shan looked at the envelope without any personal writing and was a little confused... (End of Chapter)
