Chapter 172

"I can't read, and I've never seen this pattern before!" Old man Shen said, taking a deep breath.

Memory Mother wanted to keep this jade pendant for the child in her womb, but now that she doesn't have a pendant in her hand, she can't live on.

It's better to exchange some money for some money and live the life first.

Not to mention where did this jade pendant come from?Does Mrs. Shen Li know.

Jiu Yiniang wisely kept silent.

Old man Shen stroked the jade pendant and thought of that night...

After a long time, I took a deep breath, "Go to sleep, and go to the county seat at dawn!"

The people on the roof left quietly.

"Click, chop, chop!" There were a few slight voices.

Shen Duowang sat up, looked at Shu Xin who was sleeping peacefully on the inside of the bed, got out of bed lightly, and when he went out of the room, he saw the man in black standing in the courtyard.

"General, there is movement at the Shen family!"

Hearing this, Shen Duowang took a deep breath, "What's wrong?"

"Old man Shen took out a jade pendant from under a stone pier, and it looks like he is going to sell it in the county tomorrow!"

Shen Duowang was silent.

It took a long time before he said, "Follow him, lead him to Mingzhao's pawn shop, let him die!"

"Yes!"

The man in black responded with a cry and stepped back.

Shen Duowang took a deep breath before returning to the room, just lying down, maybe Shu Xin was startled.

Shu Xin asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, I'm up at night, you go to sleep!" Shen Duowang said softly.

Shu Xin hummed and fell asleep again.

As soon as the fourth watch arrived, the village became lively. The men in the family brought their daughter-in-law over and waited to see if they could eat two steamed buns.

My aunt and I had already opened the courtyard door and waited.

When I saw everyone, I just said, "My wife is not up yet, so come with me!"

Uncle He and Uncle Zhong greeted the men in the village.

Shu Xin's family now has two kitchens, several pots, and a lot of people, and kneading steamed buns is also very fast.

Aunt Zhong asked everyone to cook a pot of porridge, two steamed buns for each person, and a bowl of porridge for the gentlemen to eat and go into the mountains, while the women made it again.

Shen Duowang got up when his ears were strong.

Shu Xin tugged on Shen Duowang's sleeve, "Are they here?"

"It's good for you to sleep, with Aunt He and Aunt Zhong!"

"Is it okay if I don't get up?" Shu Xin asked in a low voice.

"What's the matter, go to sleep!"

Shen Duowang said, put on his clothes and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

Then when he went back to the room, he saw Shu Xin lying on the bed, as if he was asleep, he stepped forward and kissed Shu Xin on the forehead, and left the room.

Shu Xin rolled over on the bed, sat up slowly, put on his clothes, washed his face, rinsed his mouth, combed his hair, and then went out.

The kitchen is already busy.

"Oh, Ah Xin, you are here!"

"You've worked hard!" Shu Xin said with a smile.

"It's all for our own sake, I just came to your house to take advantage of it again!"

"They're all from the village, they're just helping each other!" Shu Xin said, he wanted to do something, but seeing that the kitchen was already full of people, it wasn't her turn to knead the steamed buns.

After rubbing his nose, Shu Xin asked Aunt He, "Go and tell the master, let everyone go to the mountain after breakfast, and you must not be hungry!"

"Yes!"

"Also, cook the porridge to make it thicker, and prepare some pickles!" Shu Xin ordered again.

"Yes!" He aunt replied, and went to find Shen Duowang and said what Shu Xin said.

"Ok!"

Shen Duowang nodded.

The villagers naturally heard it too.

Everyone was very happy in their hearts, and felt that Shen Duowang was such a good wife, gentle, kind and generous.

In fact, at this time, it is really not easy to keep someone at home for a meal.

If it was my own wife, she would definitely not agree to it.

Shu Xin went to prepare a water bag for Shen Duowang, which contained boiled water with some sugar and salt, to quench his thirst and replenish his energy.

When Shen Duowang went back to the house to get the big knife, Shu Xin tidied his clothes, "Just do everything according to your ability, I will be sixteen in a few days, you must come back early!"

"Yeah!" Shen Duowang nodded and kissed Shu Xin, "I've made a note!"

Shen Duowang and the men from the village went into the mountain.

The women steamed some more steamed buns, and each divided two, but they were not willing to eat them, so they took them home.

Shu Xin watched and regretted that he hadn't thought of drawing water from the mountains earlier.

She was a bit useless by Shen Duowang.

She wasn't like this before, at least she was prepared for danger in times of peace.

But now, she seems to be getting more and more lazy. If there is anything, Shen Duowang will help her to do it all as soon as she tells Shen Duowang, and she is used to eating and drinking all day long.

Then I gradually lost myself, and also lost my own personality charm.

Shu Xin sat by the window and thought for a long time.

It wasn't until the sun rose that Shu Xin took a deep breath and rubbed his sleepy eyes.

I went to the bathroom to wash my face, rinse my mouth, tidy up and make the bed.

He lowered his waist in the courtyard, twisted his neck again, and took several deep breaths before exiting the courtyard.

Xinyu and Hemei were at the arched door on one side. When they saw Shu Xin, they hurriedly called out, "Ma'am!"

"En!" Shu Xin nodded.

"Does Madam want breakfast?" Xinyu asked.

Shu Xin was actually not very hungry, but the day's plan was in the morning, so he still had to eat what should be eaten.

After breakfast, all the girls in the village came. Although it is hot now, the girls come every day, holding oil umbrellas and going home for lunch.

The families of these girls rely on them to earn money to buy food.

Not to mention supporting the family, but in ancient times when girls had nowhere to make money, this was already a very good income.

"Sister Ah Xin!"

"Well, you are here!"

Shu Xin was a little lazy before, but today he is more attentive in teaching them.

It's not just about making money.

I also hope that she can teach them well, with real embroidery skills in hand.

"Starting today, let's not only embroider purses, but let's embroider handkerchiefs!"

Shu Xin brought some pure white square scarves over.

"To make a handkerchief, you need to sew the hem first. This side must be done meticulously, so that people can see it comfortably, and there are flowers inside..." Shu Xin said after a pause, "You can play as you like, and take it out after you embroider it." Let's go back!"

"Thank you, Sister Ah Xin!"

The girls were so happy that they took white square scarves over and sewed the edges for Shu Xin to check.

"Your stitches are very meticulous, so the hemming work is naturally not difficult for you, it's all very good!"

Someone embroidered small wild chrysanthemums.

Some people embroidered sweet-scented osmanthus.

It's just that they embroidered a few flowers in the corners, and they are very cute when they look small.

This time, they all embroidered according to their own preferences. They embroidered whatever they liked, and when they were embroidered for Shu Xin to see, they were all very distinctive.

"Sister Ah Xin!"

"Ok?"

"When can we be like you, embroidering a large piece like a screen?"

Shu Xin thought for a while before saying, "Let's do it this way, I'll draw a picture some other day, let's try it out first!"

"En!"

Seeing the girls happy, Shu Xin pursed his lips and smiled.

Thinking that girls should not embroider too complicatedly for the first time, so they planned to embroider a set of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum.

To learn embroidery, one must be able to draw and trace pictures.

It's just that it's too late for the girls to learn how to draw, so they skipped directly to drawing.

Shu Xin quickly prepared the embroidery cloth and taught them to tie it to the embroidery frame.

"First of all, we need to determine how to embroider the painting. Then draw the picture. After a long time, you can embroider it without drawing the picture. But these are all things that need to be accumulated over time. You don't have to worry, you will be able to do it sooner or later!"

"Sister Ah Xin, will you accompany us during this period?"

"I don't know, if I want to leave, I will invite you a master to come back!"

The girls immediately showed embarrassment.

Shu Xin smiled and didn't say much.

She was also a little confused about the way ahead.

Marry a chicken as a chicken, marry a dog as a dog, but she doesn't really want to be like this.

After the embroidery room was settled, Shu Xin got up and left, and called Uncle Zhong to set the carriage.

"Ma'am going to town?"

"En!" Shu Xin nodded.

Uncle Zhong hesitated for a moment, "Okay, the little one will go to the carriage!"

"it is good!"

Uncle Zhong couldn't ask Shu Xin what he was going to do in town, but Shu Xin didn't say anything.

Sitting in the carriage, Shu Xin lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the withered rice fields outside the window.

With a heart of guilt.

When they arrived at Shu's house in the town, Mrs. Liu was overjoyed to see Shu Xin coming back. Seeing Shu Xin alone, she quickly suppressed her smile, "Why did you come back alone?"

"Duowang and the mountain people went to the mountains to find water sources. I'm a little bored at home. Come and play for a while!"

"Are you staying here tonight?" Liu Shi hurriedly asked.

"No, I'll be back soon!"

Mrs. Liu was silent for a moment, and then said, "Did you quarrel with Duowang?"

"No!"

The boy took Uncle Zhong to settle the horse, and invited Uncle Zhong to drink tea.

Shu Xin followed Liu Shi to the inner courtyard.

Dai Zhenzhu's stomach is very big.

"It's only a few days, Ah Xin, why don't you stay at home!" Dai Zhenzhu whispered.

After walking around the house for a while, I was covered in sweat.

"I'm afraid it won't work. I'll go home first. If my sister-in-law is going to give birth, just send me a letter!" Shu Xin said, looking around, "Where's Sister Qingqing?"

"I'm practicing calligraphy in the room, Aqin and Aqi are also there, you should go find them!" Liu Shi smiled slightly.

"Row!"

When Shu Xin arrived, the three of them were seriously writing. On such a hot day, they felt calm and naturally cool. ,

"Miss!"

Shu Qin and Shu Qi were very happy to see Shu Xin.

"Yeah!" Shu Xin nodded, looking at the two beautiful younger sisters.

I still remember when they came through time travel, they were sallow and thin, and looked malnourished, but now they are all beautiful girls!

Seeing Shu Xin's appearance, Qingqing knew that Shu Xin had something on his mind.

After thinking about it, he said, "Aqin, Aqi, go to the kitchen and see if there is anything delicious, prepare some, and let's have a good chat with Axin!"

Shu Qin and Shu Qi are not fools, so they can see that Shu Xin is not in a good mood today.

He hurriedly responded.

Qingqing stepped forward and took Shu Xin's hand, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Shu Xin sighed.

"I don't know what's wrong, it's a bit awkward!"

Qingqing nodded Shu Xin's forehead, "You are a happy writer!"

"No, actually, how should I put it, I suddenly feel a little guilty!"

"How to say?" Qingqing asked hurriedly.

"Duowang had long predicted that there would be a severe drought. We also went to the mountains to find a lot of water sources, but we didn't tell everyone. Now that the crops in the fields are all dead, I suddenly came back to my senses. My own happiness, but my conscience is missing!"

Qingqing laughed out loud, "I think it's a little funny when you think like this!"

"Look, there are a lot of people affected by the drought in Dafeng County. There are not millions, but tens of thousands of people. Can you manage them all? Let's talk about those people in Shenjia Village. Do you think they are all good people?" Qingqing continued. A few questions were asked.

He held Shu Xin's hand, "The sky is not beautiful, there is no way to do it, you, a little girl, can entertain the villagers warmly when they come to your house for dinner, not to mention whether it is good or not, at least to control their fullness, it is already It is very admirable!"

Shu Xin laughed out loud.

"I'm not completely troubled by this matter, I just feel that I seem to be more and more useless!"

"You are useless?" Qingqing laughed, "If you are useless, then who is useful? You know how good the purse you send every month, Huzi asked the escort to send it to Lingjiang Mansion for sale? Those beautiful, There are dozens of beautiful ones with white text on them, and you are still rushing to get them. It is a plain purse, and the price is about [-] yuan, which is higher than others, do you know why?"

Shu Xin shook his head.

"Because these purses are finely crafted and durable, they are not comparable to the rough ones. If the pearls were not about to give birth and the tigers couldn't get away all day long, you would have asked you to expand the scale and hire more people to make the purses!"

"Is it really that good?"

"Of course!" Qingqing patted the back of Shu Xin's hand, "Stop thinking about it, your life today is beyond the envy of many people. Your husband treats you so well, and you have no parents-in-law to take care of you, and no sister-in-law. Let me tell you right and wrong, there is a small showroom, every day I teach the girls how to embroider, eat well and have someone do it well, don’t worry about trivial matters, life is carefree, what is there to be uncomfortable about?”

"In fact, I still feel that I have not done a good job in the drought!"

"Are you Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva? Aren't those villagers brainless? It hasn't rained for so long, and they're all nestled in their homes. They're not dead, so they can't think of their own way? There's no need for you to blame yourself here. If you did something wrong, why bother yourself!"

"After you say that, I don't seem to be guilty at all!"

"Not only that, Shen Duowang is now leading the villagers into the mountains to find the water source. Whether he finds it or not, it is a great merit, at least he has the heart!"

Shu Xin was silent.

"Ah Xin, as a matter of fact, no matter what you do, you have your own selfishness, just like when we first met, I was almost whipped until you pulled me. I thought this was the first time I met you. My dear girl, I had to hold back, and then I created an opportunity for you to escape, but you didn't appreciate it, and instead followed me and got whipped!" Qing Qing said, with her eyes downcast and a slight smile.

"Later, Shen Duowang came to rescue you. Seeing him like that, I knew that he must not be a simple person. When he got into the carriage, he deliberately wanted to follow you, because I knew that you were a good person, and you would definitely not Throw mine away, and I bet right again!"

"In the carriage, you may not have heard the magistrate of Taifeng County call him general, but I heard it. When I arrived at Qin's house, I was taken care of, but I was thinking hard, what should I do, let you keep me, At that time, Shen Duowang actually saw through my thoughts, but he didn't expose me, but warned me that if he dared to hurt you even a little bit, he would definitely tear me to pieces!"

"..."

Shu Xin was shocked.

She doesn't know any of this.

I just think, and Qingqing, it is fate.

"So, everyone has their own selfishness. Shen Duowang has a lot of selfishness for you, but Ah Xin, you have to firmly believe that no matter what he does, it is for you in the end, because without you, he might already live in the Deep in the mountains, or occasionally go for a walk, life is as lonely as a pool of stagnant water, no waves can be disturbed, but for you, he has made many plans and paid a lot. Such a man will bear the whole world for you, or everyone in the world will He, you also have to stay by his side, not to mention that he is not the kind of wolf-hearted, ruthless person at all, he is worthy of your heart and life to love!"

Shu Xin leaned on Qingqing's shoulder, "I was confused, but I couldn't solve it, so I came to you. I didn't expect you to teach me such a lesson!"

"You are too free, or maybe Shen Duowang will take care of everything for you, I'm used to it!" Qingqing pushed Shu Xin, "Go back after eating, find something to do, and get back the self-confidence you once had. It’s full of Ah Xin, instead of this heavy face, it hurts me to see it!”

Shu Xin smiled, "I've actually already thought about what to do!"

"That's good!" Qingqing smiled.

I really envy Shu Xin in my heart.

Loved by mother, respected by brothers and sisters, pampered by grandpa and grandma, and loved by her husband even more.

It's just that I don't know why, but now I'm a little sentimental.

During lunch, Huzi came back, and Shu Xin asked, "Brother Huzi, are the purses I made there really selling well?"

"Okay, it's very good, Ah Xin, let me tell you, it would be even better if you could find some more people to do it, I..." Hu Zi immediately started talking.

I even forgot to eat.

Shu Xin listened carefully and planned to recruit some more people after returning.

Make more purses out.

After lunch, Shu Xin went back.

Halfway, he said to Uncle Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, let's go to Zhaojia Village!"

"Ma'am, what are you going to Zhaojia Village for?" Uncle Zhong said.

"I'm going to build two embroidery houses, and recruit some people to make purses!"

As Shu Xin said, he let out a breath and smiled confidently.

Although Zhao Baotou has made a lot of money, he has a large family. The weather is very hot and there is no harvest this year. Basically, no one knows how to repair houses.

When he saw Shu Xin who was dressed as a woman and dressed very decently, Zhao Baotou laughed, "I haven't seen you for a long time, and the demeanor of a woman is more precious than before!"

"Zhao Baotou was joking!"

Zhao Baotou asked Shu Xin to sit down, and his wife brought tea immediately.

"Madam Shen, please!"

"Thank you Zhao Baotou!"

Shu Xin was holding the tea, and just about to drink it, he felt that the taste was not right, so he couldn't drink it at all.

"..."

Shu Xin frowned.

What's wrong with her?
She is not a picky person at all, why can't she drink this tea today?
Zhao Baotou looked at it, but he didn't care.

Mrs. Zhao was on the side, her eyes lit up, but after all, it was someone else's business, she couldn't say much...

 Aww, finally the fourth update is delivered, and the monthly pass is flying.

  The updates have been rough these days.

  It's still the same, 200 monthly tickets plus one update
