Struggle small peasant girl happy in the mountains and forests

Chapter 26 Fire

Uncle Dashan took a sip of tea and continued: "Since you are here now, let me tell you the truth. Da Ya is now the adopted daughter of Lord Shi, the county lord. This Mrs. Shi gave birth to Mr. Shi three times. This son, the eldest son Shi Yu married his wife last year and gave birth to a grandson. Mrs. Shi wanted a daughter wholeheartedly. My lord's second son and the youngest are not yet old enough to marry, no, last time the nobleman from Qianfuyuan took me and Daya to the county to do the paperwork for buying mountains, because the nobleman has not been with us for a long time, I'm afraid When my family was building walls and buildings, someone tripped me, so I introduced Mrs. Shi to us, so that we could ask Mrs. Shi for help when we have something to do. Unexpectedly, Da Ya was caught by Mrs. Shi's eyes in the backyard of the county government office. In the eyes of Mrs. Shi and Mr. Shi, Da Ya should take care of her three points more than her own son. If something happens to the three sisters of Da Ya, think about it..." Uncle Da Shan half-spoken and half-reserved The more Lin Dafu thought about it, the more afraid he became.

"That's right, the adoptive father and adoptive mother heard about what happened to our three sisters that day, and planned to bring people to the village to teach Lin and Liu Erniang's family! I also kindly stopped them. Now these two families are uneasy and well-intentioned, even for the sake of the family. If this little thing wants to kill our siblings, naturally I can no longer be polite to them..." Lin Chun continued to irritate Lin Dafu from the side.

Lin Dafu was already shaken when he heard that Uncle Dashan said that the nobleman should pursue him, and he also heard that Daya is now the adopted daughter of the county lord, plus the incident of Lin Chun's intercession. I, Lin Dafu, have little knowledge, don't say anything now, just speak up, big girl, if there is anything you need me to do, just tell me what you need to say."

Just waiting for your words!
"Well, since Uncle Dafu said it, then I won't be impolite. Let's do this on New Year's Eve..." Lin Chun talked with Uncle Dashan and Uncle Dafu for about an hour, and then Uncle Dashan took Lin Dafu away. When he left, Lin Dafu swept away the worry and eagerness on his face, but instead had some anticipation and eagerness to try.

In the afternoon, Uncle Dashan took Lin Chun to the county government office in a bullock cart. Seeing Lin Chun, Mrs. Shi wished to bring out all the good things in the house for Lin Chun to choose, which made Master Shi dumbfounded. Fortunately, Lin Chun was sensible. , Mr. Shi appreciated it quite a lot. Mr. Shi knew that Lin Chun and Dashan must have something to do to come to the county government at the end of this year, so he asked Mrs. Shi to go to the kitchen to prepare Lin Chun's food, and took them to the study.

Master Shi heard the intention of Lin Chun and Da Shan, and the cute and funny mustaches on his angry lips were raised up and down. He was very happy to see it. After Lin Chun said his thoughts, Master Shi agreed, Busy said that he would cooperate when the time came, Lin Chun got the nod of Master Shi, heaved a sigh of relief, they had dinner together, and finally Mrs Shi reluctantly promised Lin Chun that he would come to the county government to stay with Mrs Shi for a few years in the next year One day, I went back to Linjiacun with Uncle Dashan.

Tianyang Country, Yuxiang County, is divided into Qingxi County, Qinglin County and Qingshui County, and Qingxi County is divided into Linjia Village, Chenjia Village, Zhaojia Village, and Zhangjia Village.Shi Wennai, the county magistrate of Yuxiang County, is a Jinshi in the third year of Zhaoyang, the current sage of Tianyang Kingdom. His hometown is in Yuxiang County, so he returned to his hometown to be an official. Shi Wen himself insisted on not leaving his hometown, so the emperor let him go. Fortunately, he managed Yuxiang County well.

It is well known in Yuxiang County that the wife of the Shi family wanted a daughter. It was only after giving birth to three sons that her body was damaged and she could no longer conceive, so she had no choice but to give up. The three sons of the Shi family, Shi Yu, Shi Yuan, Shi Yuan Qi is also very speechless about her mother's desire to have a daughter so much. Mrs. Shi finally hoped that her eldest son would marry a daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law was pregnant, but she was born as a boy. Unable to get married and have children, Mrs. Shi's family was disappointed. That day, Lin Chun had gone to discuss the paperwork with Shi Wen with Uncle Dashan, Uncle Qian and the shopkeeper of Qianfuyuan Store in the county town. I went to the backyard and asked Uncle Qian and the others to do it on my behalf. I didn't expect to meet Mrs. Shi who looked depressed.

Besides, Mrs. Shi burst into tears when she saw Lin Chun's blue cotton padded clothes, two braids, and red strings on her hair. She looked like her daughter in her dream. What to do, fortunately, the grandmother at the side explained in time, which resolved Lin Chun's embarrassment. Lin Chun was also very moved when he saw Mrs. Shi like this. Coupled with Mrs. Shi's sincere love, and the matchmaking with Uncle Qian and others, Lin Chun In the end, Shi Wen became the adopted daughter of Mrs. Shi and Master Shi. Shi Wen didn't like Lin Chun very much at first, but after hearing what Uncle Dashan and Uncle Qian said about Lin Chun in the village, he also changed his normal behavior and felt very sorry for Lin Chun. Seeing Lin Chun being sensible, courteous, and generous, I gradually fell in love with this nine-year-old girl who is sometimes clever and cute, and sometimes sensible and wise.

In the blink of an eye, on the day of New Year's Eve, Lin Chun's family got busy early in the morning, because before dawn, a horse quietly entered Lin's village and arrived at Uncle Dashan's house. After the carriage was put away, several A yamen servant and a middle-aged man with a righteous face walked towards Lin Chun's house at the west end of the village. Uncle Dashan was leading the way, and the middle-aged man was naturally Master Shi Wenshi, Lin Chun's adoptive father. They walked softly, After a while, they arrived at Lin Chun's house. Lin Chun had already prepared tea and pastries, and Datou and Erya also got up.Obediently and Dudu saw a lot of strangers coming towards their house, and barking loudly, Datou and Erya hurriedly hugged them to comfort them, the two puppies saw that the people who came to the house had no ill intentions towards the three Lin Chun sisters, so they behaved obediently no longer barking.

Lin Chun took two pieces of cakes for Datou and Erya and asked them to feed them to Guaiguai and Dudu. Following Shi Wenlai's yamen servants, one of them liked dogs very much. Datou and Erya were also very happy to play with a puppy, obediently and Dudu played with a few people, also wagging their tails, running happily among the crowd.

After drinking tea and eating cakes, the rice porridge cooked by Lin Chun is also ready. It is fragrant and thick, and it is served with a few dishes. Everyone is very happy to eat. Datou and Erya also ate two bowls, and the rest is naturally given Dudu and Guaiguai, fortunately, Lin Chun boiled a lot, and both pots were used. Everyone was full and started to work. Lin Chun began to assign work. Now a cellar was dug behind the two huts in the family. It was a mountainous area with rocks underneath, so it was a bit difficult, but no matter how difficult it was, it couldn't stop the crowds. It took about a quarter of an hour to build a simple cellar. Lin Chun packed some things at home into wooden boxes, put them in, and hid them.

In the sleeping hut, the red and wood-patterned box is very conspicuous. Everyone who saw it thought it must be gold, silver, jewelry or silk, satin and jade. Lin Chun carefully took out the key to open it, and the few people who entered the room opened their eyes wide Wanting to see the contents of the box for the first time, following Lin Chun's movements, the lid of the box was gradually lifted. Shi Wen and Dashan were very curious, and hurried forward to find out, and when they took a closer look, everyone was surprised , the imaginary gold, silver and jade wares disappeared, and there were rows and piles of new books lying in the box. The top row contained three-character scriptures, thousand-character scripts, hundreds of surnames, and other enlightenment books, Shi Wenxiang I flipped through a few books, and at the bottom are some Tianyang's human geography and natural wonders, as well as interesting historical facts, etc., all kinds of things, in all fields.
