The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 127
Shen Xuan chatted with Zhou Shi and Father Shen for a while, and the content was nothing more than some gossip in the village.There is also the preparation of the Shen family's new year's goods.When Shen Xuan left the living room and returned to the courtyard, she saw the paper sent by Shen Shuoxing, checked it roughly, and put it down.

It was getting dark before he knew it, and he rubbed his sore neck.After lighting the oil lamps, the three masters and servants spent the afternoon checking accounts again.Look at the ledger that was put aside, it will take time to check it out.

After finishing dinner, Shen Xuan lay on the bed very early, listening to the "creaking" sound from the window next to her ear, she thought it would be more comfortable to stay in bed.The clouds are thick at night in winter.The sky was as black as if it had been painted with ink. Maybe it was because of the cold weather that even the moon hid behind the clouds.

Shen Xuan looked at the snowflakes still falling outside through the crack of the window, pulled the quilt on her body, and soon fell asleep, until dawn.

The next day was a new beginning, Shen Xuan was still checking the accounts in the study, and Zhou and Father Shen were still preparing for the New Year.At this time, thousands of miles away, two carriages were driving rapidly.The people sitting in the car were Brother Qiu and the others who were rushing home. Fortunately, they had prepared enough clothes. Although the roads were difficult in winter, they still couldn't stop them from going home.

"Will we be able to arrive in Lin'an in two days?" Brother Dong in the car asked aloud, even though there was a heater, he still felt cold.

"Well, we'll be able to go home soon." Brother Chun said with joy at the thought of seeing his family soon. Although he had been away from home for less than three months, it felt like he had been away for a long time.

"Don't forget that we have to visit Cao Mansion when we arrive in Lin'an. Send a letter to Mr. Cao." Brother Qiu reminded.

"That's right. You said it's Chinese New Year, why didn't Brother Cao go home?" Brother Dong muttered in a low voice, expressing his incomprehension to Cao Jiajun's behavior of staying in the capital alone instead of going home during Chinese New Year.

"Brother Cao has his own ideas." Brother Qiu said in a low voice.

Since meeting Cao Jiajun again, through chatting, the Shen brothers have learned about his current situation, and Brother Qiu understands his decision to stay in the capital.I heard that the first young master Lin, the eldest son of the Lin family, is going back to Beijing, if Cao Jiajun can make friends with him, he can avoid the son Lin Yiliang.Reduce his pestering.For more than two months, Cao Jiajun has been spending money on Lin Yiliang's food and drink, and he also thought about moving out of the Lin residence, but it was a bit difficult to talk about it. He wanted to tell Mr. Lin because he was afraid of offending him. Anyway, Cao Jiajun's life was quite difficult.

Bai Ming also got some understanding of what happened to Cao Jiajun from Brother Qiu and the others. He was very happy that Brother Qiu and the others did not rashly bring him to the Shen residence. Bai Ming was worried about it ever since he heard about Cao Jiajun. occur.Fortunately, Brother Qiu and the others understand the truth of "wealth must not leak out and people must be guarded against others". Bai Ming wrote to Shen Xuan specifically about this matter, and in the letter they praised Brother Qiu and the others, saying Most of them are Brother Qiu and the others who have considered things carefully and so on.

"Little sister, will she like the gift we bought for her?" Brother Xia asked, putting down his medical skills.

"I definitely like it." Brother Dong answered first.They bought some gifts for their families when they went home this time, using the money they earned from the wine shop they bought.After the restaurant has been renovated and repaired, it still sells wine, but there are more types, and they sometimes send servants to help the restaurant's business.

In the afternoon of the 28th year, two carriages drove into Shatu Village, and the four Qiu brothers and four servants finally returned home.

The return of these people not only kept the Shen family busy, but even the people in the village kept busy. When they heard that they came back from the capital, the people in the village rushed to inquire, wanting to hear what the capital is like and how to meet them. The county where I have been.How is Lin'an different? Some people directly ask if they have seen the emperor...

Faced with all kinds of problems from the villagers, Brother Qiu and the others were powerless to resist, and in the end Father Shen let out a sigh of relief when he saw them sleepy, using this as an excuse to let everyone break up.Of course, one can imagine the scene that the four of them will face tomorrow, and more and more people will definitely come to inquire.

Everyone in the Shen family gathered together, seeing Brother Qiu who had returned home safely, their eyes were red, and they finally came back.Everyone could see the exhaustion on the faces of the four of them, so they didn't say much.Ask more, let them go to bed early after eating.

The Shen family has been very lively this year, and people come to the Shen family every day to ask Brother Qiu and others to tell them about the things in the capital. Even people from the nearby villages came to inquire after hearing about the incident.After Shen Xuan listened to Ding Xiang and the others describe the situation of Brother Qiu and the others in the backyard, she gloated and said, "People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong!"

The year always goes by so quickly, and it goes by in the blink of an eye. Brother Qiu and the others, who haven't stayed at home for a few days, are about to start their journey again.This time when they left, the Shen family's emotions were well controlled, and they didn't even cry during the Chinese New Year.On the fifth day of the first lunar month, there were two carriages again.It was those same people who stepped out of Shatu Village under the watchful eyes of everyone in the Shen family.

After seeing off Brother Qiu and others, the Shen family has not changed much, and is still in the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.Brother Qiu and the others drove past, except for the inn.There are still relatively few people when the shops are open.Everyone is at leisure.During the rest, Bai Ming, Lei Kui and others were so busy that they haven't had a good time for years.

The vegetable seeds that Shen Xuan handed over to Bai Ming, because of the infiltration of spiritual water, caused the inside of the greenhouse to be lush green.The people under Bai Ming and Lei Kui were very excited to see the fruits of their labor. They did not expect that they really grew vegetables in winter.Stir-fry a few green vegetables, and everyone sits together and tastes.It's lively, um, it's very delicious, it always tastes better than the green vegetables eaten in summer.

After eating and tasting, everyone discussed the issue of selling it next. If you want to sell it at a good price in the capital, this is a question worth considering.Bai Ming is worthy of being a housekeeper. Everyone is still thinking about it, but he has come up with a solution.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, as soon as Du Qingcang returned to the General's Mansion and sat there drinking tea to sober up, he heard Wen Si come to report: the housekeeper of Shen's Mansion came to visit.Considering Shen Xuan's reasons, Du Qingcang, who didn't want to see anyone else, made an exception and ordered his servants to bring Bai Ming here.Although the General's Mansion has fallen, there are still some acquaintances in the capital. Just after the [-]th day, Du Qingcang and Mrs. Du began to be busy entertaining people who came to visit. Du Qingcang also had a few friends of the same age. The second time was to drink too much with them.

"Slave Bai Ming greets Young Master Du and wishes you a happy old age." Bai Ming greeted Du Qingcang immediately when he saw Du Qingcang.Thinking about being busy with green vegetables in the greenhouse these days.Even the new year is spent in another courtyard in the suburbs, it seems that the New Year's gift to the general's mansion was sent to other servants, thinking of this, he hurriedly paid Du Qingcang his old age.

"Get up, what are you doing today?" Du Qingcang rubbed his dizzy forehead and asked Bai Ming.
