Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 239 Dissatisfied
"You prepared it, you prepared it! I have to do my part too!" Said Xiang Xi, striding forward without even looking back.

In the past six months, he has not spent the salary he received every month indiscriminately. Except for the necessary expenses, he has accumulated the rest.Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to go to the northwest to find and visit Da Ya, mother and son.However, now that Izumo Chaoyang is going to the northwest, and the weather is about to get cold, he has to buy a warm fur coat for each of the big girls!
The weather in the northwest is said to be cold!Alas, I don’t know how the elder sister who is afraid of the cold will live this winter!The scorching sun, the strong sandstorm like a knife, did not harm the delicate face of the elder sister?

At this time, there is still an hour and a half before dark.

Xiangxi ran away in a hurry, and Shui Qingqian couldn't sit still, so he simply took 5000 taels of banknotes, rode a horse to Lianfu, and asked Shui Liuli for help.It's better for women to buy clothes, shoes and socks, so it's better to leave this task to my sister!
"What, little uncle is here, why didn't you notify me?" Shui Liuli felt very regretful, many years ago, she really wanted to see grandma, grandpa and little uncle.Now, after finally having an opportunity, she just slipped away like this.

Shui Qingqian quickly explained: "Little uncle suddenly appeared in Anyuan, and he stayed with him for about half an hour, but after ten days, he will go to the northwest to find your sister-in-law and three children, and he will come to the capital before leaving. By the way, the Nishang Garden next to Anyuan was bought by my grandfather. In the future, if you encounter any difficulties, you can go to the Nishang Garden for help! The little uncle specially left two tokens of Yanyu Villa, and I have one With you, when the time comes, take the token and go to Nishangyuan to ask for help, and the people who stay there will naturally lend a helping hand!"

"Oh, my uncle is going to the northwest to find my sister-in-law, nephews and nieces? That's kind, I want to write a letter to my sister-in-law, and prepare some clothes, shoes and socks for my sister-in-law and three children! Oh, there are only ten days, too. Hurry up! No, I'll go to the street to buy leather and cloth, otherwise, I won't have time to sew!"

Shui Liuli's personality is also a little hot-tempered now, and she will do it when she says it.Without waiting for Shui Qingqian to express her position, she said to him: "Brother, my younger sister has no time to entertain you today, so go home first! I'm going to ask my mother-in-law for instructions before I can go out!"

After speaking, the man walked quickly to the door.

Lian Tinghan was a little embarrassed, and apologized to Shui Qingqian in embarrassment: "Brother, don't be angry, Liuli has changed a lot in the past few months. Before, her personality was not like this, she was very gentle and calm. Now, she has become She is very impatient and impatient with people who do things slowly. There are a few maids in the mansion who work very slowly, and she fired them without mercy, and replaced them with cheerful and quick people!"

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Shui Qing smiled slightly, and said cheerfully: "It's so good! With her current temperament, she and her sister-in-law will definitely get along very well, and they can become very good friends!"

"Hey, brother, it's great if you can understand, thank you! Brother, it's going to be dark in another hour, why don't you stay and have dinner!" Lian Tinghan hurriedly warmly invited him, his wife didn't count, but he could It can't be like that.

"No, I'll go to the street to have a look, maybe I can buy the desired leather and fabric! By the way, I came here today just to ask Liuli to help me prepare clothes, shoes, socks and other things for my little uncle to take. Northwest gave it to her sister-in-law and three children! Here is 5000 taels of silver, please help give this purse to Liuli!"

Shui Qingqian stuffed the purse into Lian Tinghan's hands, laughed loudly, and said goodbye to Lian Tinghan.

Even the father and the mother heard about it, and hurriedly told their son Lian Tinghan: "You should also be careful about preparing gifts for Sister Liuli and her nephews and nieces. If you don't have enough money, just tell us!"

For Rao Da Ya, a strange woman, even the whole family has a good impression of her.

"Yes, father, mother, the child knows!" Lian Tinghan agreed happily.The wife went to prepare gifts with great fanfare, and judging by her appearance, she must be planning to buy a lot.Originally, he was worried that his parents would be unhappy when they found out, but now it's all over, the dark clouds all over the sky have dispersed.

He hurriedly chased him out on horseback, hoping to catch up with his wife.

Shangguan Heng heard that Izumo Chaoyang was going to the northwest, so he hurriedly went to the study to write a letter to his elder brother. This time, someone he trusted would help him take it. Letter to elder brother.

Shanqian Village, Jingyuan.

Nanny Peng, the mother-in-law of the crown princess, lived in Jingyuan together with her two subordinates, two maids, a cook, and a dozen guards.All the food and daily life are in charge of the people she leads, and the people from Ning Yuan will not interfere.The ingredients or other daily necessities used are purchased by her people in the county town or from people in the village.

Liu Xiangchun and Shancha's mother report to Jingyuan after breakfast every day.After the two studied for a few days, Gu Yu, Erya, Shancha and Chunlai, as well as First Aunt and Fifth Aunt also joined in.Follow along to learn some rules and etiquette, and listen to Madam Peng talking about some house fighting methods in the back houses of wealthy families.

These people are also planning for a rainy day, the so-called "a lot of art is not overwhelming", it is always good to have more things.In this way, if one day you have the opportunity to appear in the social circle of the upper class, you will not be treated as a joke, ridiculed and humiliated wantonly
After half a year, everyone has gained a lot.Especially Liu Xiangchun, she is the key training object of Madam Peng, and she is extremely strict and picky about Liu Xiangchun.Half a year has passed, and under the interesting "torture" by Nanny Peng, she has changed completely, giving her a feeling of being reborn.

After learning the rules for half a year, and listening to so many house fighting stories told by Nanny Peng, she has finally grown up!Looking back on the past, she couldn't help feeling deeply ashamed, and clearly realized how unbearable she was in the past.

She knew she was wrong, but her eldest daughter, Daya, was already thousands of miles away, and she had no chance to say sorry to her daughter face to face.

At this point, when she came to her senses, she realized that the position of the eldest daughter in her heart was actually more important than she imagined, even surpassing Xiang Xi's position in her heart.

She knew very well that Da Ya had been doing everything possible to support the family all these years, even sacrificing her own reputation to fight against the people in the old house with a tough attitude.Otherwise, she would still be under the tight control of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law every other day, living a miserable life that was worse than that of pigs and dogs.

And her natal family is still living a closed life similar to savages in the deep mountains and old forests of Wudaoliang.The kind and simple mother is still tossed and tortured by the lazy, greedy and small-bellied fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law every day, month, month, year, year after year, maybe she is already too old now!
There is also the second sister who was forced to change relatives for the fourth brother, and was kicked out of the house by the cruel parents-in-law a long time ago, and had to use the cave as her home.When Da Ya knew about it, she quickly asked her to send 100 taels of silver to help the second sister's family of five settle down in the next county.The second sister's cooking skills are very good, and the eldest sister introduced her to the taste building to be a mother. The second brother-in-law's hands are very skillful, and the baskets and boxes weaved are very good. Mo Xiangzhai's order.

Now, the second sister's family is doing very well, and the family is kind.Second sister's youngest son, now I heard that he is also a master!The second sister's family can have today, Da Ya is a great contributor!
Not only that, Da Ya is also a great hero and savior of the Liu family and the Rao family!If there is no Da Ya, Xiangxi and Xiangdong will never have the opportunity to study, let alone the middle scholar and Jinshi!Erya, maybe she was also encouraged by Bai's mother-in-law to marry carelessly, how can she have such a comfortable life now?

In the dead of night, Liu Xiangchun stood alone under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard, looking at the starry night sky, and his longing for his eldest daughter, Da Ya, rushed in like a tide.

Bitter tears fell quietly.My heart was full of loss and guilt.

If there is a chance to make up for what she owes her daughter, she will do her best without complaint or regret.For her daughter Da Ya, she is willing to give everything, even the price of her life!
Da Ya has no way of knowing the movements of everyone in the capital and Shanqian Village.A month of waiting seemed extremely long to her.Just when she was about to see through the autumn water, Shangguan Cheng finally arrived at Xiaoqinghe Oasis with thirty energetic young men.

Those who came even brought their own military tents.He even brought five cattle!This is a huge surprise!You must know that farm cattle are very scarce within a hundred miles.The last time I went to the county seat, Da Ya always wanted to buy some cattle, but unfortunately, I didn't even see the shadow of the cattle.There was no other way, so I had to ask Qi Lianshan and Ge Gen to help her pay attention, but the two also said that it is difficult to buy farm cattle, and there must be a good time.

Now, there are five cattle at once, and Da Ya is so happy!

Shangguancheng said: "This time, we brought a total of five tents, all of which are military tents, enough for thirty of them to live. If you go to the mountains to cut wood, you can also bring two tents. Everyone squeezes together and you can Stay here! Also, last time I came here, I saw that you didn’t have a single farm ox. This is impossible. With so much land, how can you do without a farm ox? There was a big family who planned to move the whole family to Fucheng, and wanted to sell the land and cattle, so I quickly bought it!"

"You are very thoughtful, now, you have helped me a lot! Thank you, you have worked hard! Come in the house quickly and eat a piece of watermelon to relieve the heat!" Da Ya quickly thanked and warmly invited everyone into the front yard living room to rest.

Hey, if he bought five cattle in a row, this guy must have spent all the money she gave him, right?Forget it, when you find a suitable opportunity, give him a few hundred taels of silver!

Shangguan Cheng hurriedly said to the thirty retired soldiers: "This is Mrs. Rao, please say hello to Mrs. Rao!"

"Hello, Mrs. Rao! Please take care of me!" Thirty young voices recalled in unison. They were uniform, as expected of soldiers who had just walked out of the barracks.

Da Ya was very satisfied, and the smile on her face became brighter again.

Shangguan Cheng shouted: "Stand at attention!"

Thirty soldiers swiped and formed a neat queue.

"Shangguan Jingxuan, come out!" Shangguan Cheng shouted solemnly.

"Here! General please give instructions!" A young officer in his early twenties walked out of the queue.

Shangguan Cheng didn't answer him right away, but said respectfully to Da Ya: "Sister-in-law, this is my cousin Shangguan Jingxuan who graduated from the fifth service. , he offered to retire from the army and come to work for you! Among these soldiers, he has the highest official position, and he is also very popular. Before you get to know them well, let him take care of the other 29 for the time being!"

These words revealed the following meanings to Da Ya: first, this man is a cousin who graduated from Wufu, Da Ya needn't worry about him; second, the use of Shangguan Jingxuan is temporary, After everything settles down, if this person's performance is not good enough, he can be discarded; third, he is a retired soldier with an official position, and his mind and ability are slightly better than the rest.
