The general has a cute wife

Chapter 835: You Can't Get Tiger Sons
After entering the gate, there is a small quadrangle courtyard, a two-storey attic, the front should be the hall, and the two sides should be the place where the head of the family lives. There is a small door on the right side of the gate, which should be the residence of the maids and servants. There is another small door in the corner, which should lead to the guest room in the backyard.

The yard is not big, with some flowers and plants planted, and a large tank with a few fishes. There is a well in the corner, and a few pots of welcoming pine bonsai are placed under the porch.

Qin Mu invited them in, and the inside was very simple, with a few sets of calligraphy and paintings that were not considered expensive, and ordinary folk kiln porcelain on the table, and the tables and chairs were ordinary pine wood, but painted with oil. It looks better.

The room was hung with green cloth curtains, and the small main hall was divided into three rooms, and the curtains on both sides were hanging down, making it impossible to see clearly the scenes of the other two rooms.

Ning Shu went in and looked at the curtains on both sides, whispered to Xiao Jiancong, "There are three women on the left, and a man on the right."

Xiao Jian hooked the corner of her mouth: "Smart."

Ning Shu started to shriek, Xiao Jian sat down in the front seat, and she stood upright beside her.

Qin Mu hurriedly said, "Girl, please sit down too, don't stand."

Ning Shu waved her hand: "No, I like to fight."

It's not good for Qin Mu to say what she said, so Xiao Jian looked around the room before opening his mouth.

"Master Qin's family looks like this. It seems that the poverty and hardship in Leshui Town are real."

Gray showed embarrassment: "It's the lower officials who are incompetent and cannot let the common people live and work in peace."

Xiao Jiancong waved his hand: "Master Ge, don't say that, the imperial court gives a lot of money every year, but the officials along the road have to take some oil and water, and it is true that there is not much left in your hands. It is not your fault."

Qin Mu said: "Lord Xiao knows the hardships of us, and I am really grateful to the villain. My family can only be regarded as a wealthy family, and I can't protect the people from worrying about food and clothing. I can only donate some money every year to build a porridge shed for the people to eat. One mouthful is full, and nothing else is really powerless."

Xiao Jiancong nodded: "Master Qin is benevolent and kind first, I will remember these things."

A man who looked like a butler came in: "Master, the food is ready."

Master Qin hurriedly stood up: "Please treat your lord to something to eat."

"Alright."

Xiao Jian followed them to the dining room on the other side, Ning Shu stayed at the same table with Xiao Jian, and the attendants went to another place to eat.

Ning Shu was dumbfounded when she saw the food. The two big steamed buns looked like they were not all rice noodles, but seemed to be mixed with some corn noodles. There were quite a lot of dishes, but the only meat was a chicken and a fish, plus a plate of braised pork, and everything else It is a vegetarian dish, and the oil is almost invisible.

When everyone was seated, Ning Shu was very embarrassed to hold the chopsticks. The food on the table was not enough for her to eat alone. The wealthy family was so poor, how poor must the common people be?

Qin Mu poured the wine himself, said a few words and everyone drank together and then began to eat. Xiao Jiancong, Qin Mu and Ge Rui chatted a few gossips while eating.

Ning Shu took a steamed bun and ate it in small bites. A steamed bun can eat ten mouthfuls, and the usual maximum is five mouthfuls, and the dishes are also eaten smaller.

Xiao Jiancong picked up two pieces of meat for her: "Don't hold back, eat well."

Ning Shu didn't say a word, she ate a big steamed bun with two pieces of meat, Xiao Jian just followed her, ate very slowly, and kept picking up food for her, Qin Mu and Ge Rui didn't eat much, and they didn't know what they were thinking by looking at their expressions .
