"What about the children in that courtyard? They always have to be taken care of by people who eat and drink. Cao Bailan is crazy. If your brother really wants to marry another one, it is also a matter of where Cao Bailan will go. Hey, in fact, your brother's is what should be done." It’s not tough when it’s hard, but now if you want to marry again, then Cao Bailan’s sister will definitely not be able to pass that test.”

Anping patted Osmanthus's hand and said in relief, "What can we do? It's fate. We can't control that much. Let my brother figure it out. In fact, I support him to marry another one. Life must continue. Yes, it’s not a home if you stay like this all day.”

Cardamom took Xiao Jiu to the kitchen so as not to cause trouble for them on Mother's side.

"Sister, what is hot pot, Xiao Jiu wants to eat hot pot,"

Just as he was talking, Bai Xinghe entered the kitchen and asked with a smile, "Let me help you too."

"Master Bai, we don't need so many people here. If you have nothing to do, go to the house and settle the accounts with my father for the last month. The Chinese New Year is almost here, and the people below are all waiting for your money to have a good year."

Cardamom took Bai Xinghe out of the kitchen. It was just winter and there were no fresh vegetables. There were only some Chinese cabbage and some potatoes. There were some dry goods at home, which were sent by Chang Yanghong. They just soaked in warm water and could be eaten at night. .

It was getting dark early, and the three brothers Chang and Yang Hong hurried back when it was getting dark, and brought back the bill given by the pharmacy, and gave the cardamom the courage to reconcile the account with a smile when they entered the door.

"Brother Chang, you go into the house for a rest, and I will settle the bill for you later." Dou Kou took the statement and looked at the running water on it, and did a rough calculation. Except for the settlement to the cooperative farmers, the remaining money is not as good as imagined There are many, but it is enough for a fat year.

Chang Yang Hong brought his two younger brothers into the house, greeted Anping Osmanthus, and thanked Bai Xinghe respectfully.

Bai Xinghe and Anping were reconciling accounts on the table, the three brothers of the Chang family were quietly warming up beside the charcoal fire, and Guihua went to the kitchen to help clean up the meals when she saw that she had nothing to do.

"Is there a lot of food? If there is too much, let the three children of the Chang family eat together," Gui Hua smiled and poured firewood into the stove. She likes the three children of the Chang family with all her heart. It's always safe to explain something. With the three of them, Anping is like having extra superpowers, and everything can be done smoothly.

"The food is enough, but Brother Chang and the three of them probably won't eat at our house. After paying the money, they must want to go home and guard their sister and parents. You, if I feel distressed, I will pretend to be a little bit for them." Rice and meals for them to take home."

When the hot pot was served, Anping and Bai Xinghe were still settling accounts, and Osmanthus urged, "Okay, let's settle after dinner."

Bai Xinghe said he was here to settle the accounts, but he didn't bring the accountant with him. For such accounts, the two of them would have to calculate for a few days.

Cardamom called the three brothers of the Chang family to her room.

"This is a half-year dividend, a total of 30 taels, please keep the bank notes," Dou Kou handed the bank notes to Chang Yang Hong, and said with a smile, "Although Chinese New Year is coming soon, the herbs in the field don't need to be taken care of, but Also go around often, don’t run out of water.” Snow is like covering the herbs with a quilt, which can actually keep them warm. If water is poured in, the herbs will freeze to death.

Chang Yang Hong looked at the number on the bank note and was taken aback for a moment, "There are so many?"

He rubbed his chapped hands a little afraid to take it.

Their third brother didn't know how much the herbs in the field were worth. Anyway, cardamom was a big deal for them every time they paid the bill.

"Take it, I didn't give you any more, it scares you, it's just so much, the extra five taels of silver, you are helping my father with other jobs, you can't treat your own people badly, brothers just accept it , " Cardamom inadvertently glanced at the chapped hands of Chang and Yang Hong's three brothers, they were young and exposed to the wind and rain all day long, but their young body had a pair of old hands.

Chang Yanghong licked his chapped lips, carefully put the banknotes into his arms, and smiled at his two younger brothers, "After the new year, our family will also build a new house, and we will send our younger sisters to school."

"You take this ointment, soak your hands and feet in hot water at night, and then apply a layer. There are so many dry cracks on your hands, and you will delay your work after the year. I will not rely on it," Cardamom took out a wooden box from the drawer. The paste, and a pack of rubbed pills are for the elders of the Chang family.

Chang Yanghong smiled embarrassedly, and when he took it, he saw that the cardamom drawer was full of papers, one by one neatly arranged, the creases were carefully flattened, and neatly wrapped with a red stick. rope tied.

Seeing their eyes on her little secrets, Cardamom smiled shyly and stroked her hair.

After closing the drawer, the three brothers of the Chang family said goodbye. Osmanthus stopped the three children in the courtyard and brought them the packed meals.

The three children were not restrained, they took the food and went home happily. Osmanthus saw that the cardamom house was lit, and a silhouette on the window was looking at something, so she went to the door and opened it.

Cardamom's concentration on reading the letter was interrupted by Mother's sudden movement, "Mother, I'll go right away."

"Why are you nervous? Mom will see when you are willing to put down those letters. Did Qi Tengmiao send them to you?" Osmanthus sat down next to her girl, stroked her hair and said, "My girl, You are still young, the days to come are still long, the people who stay by your side are practical, the people far away are just like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, there is no future, you are still young, when you grow up during the Chinese New Year, you will understand your mother Interesting."

She couldn't see through her little girl's hidden thoughts, but she was just worried that the girl, Dougao, was out of her depth.

Cardamom received the letter, and said coquettishly, "Mother, where are you going, Qi Tengmiao and I are just good friends to play with, don't worry, I will not marry in the future, and I will bring my father and mother with me when I marry. Together."

From that day on, in the blink of an eye, when every household prepared things for the New Year, Qi Tengmiao's letter never appeared again.

Cardamom would watch the birds flying by in the sky eagerly every evening, but none of them landed on her window sill.

In the blink of an eye, the twelfth lunar month has entered, and every household is busy. The Cardamom family has settled the money for all the cooperative farmers. In the past few days, people have come to the door from time to time with things to thank, and some inquires are willing to rent the land to the Cardamom family in the coming year. , but was rejected, Bai Xinghe also asked someone to send a letter, asking her to go to the pharmacy tomorrow, and he wanted to honor the gift of cardamom.

Getting up early the next morning, my father drove the carriage and took the family into the city to buy new year's goods, and dropped the cardamom at the medicine shop along the way.

The fat aunt outside the pharmacy was carrying a bunch of things into the house, and Dougao sweetly called out to her aunt and went over to help get the things.

"Come in, come in, this Laba, the Laba porridge made by the fat aunt is the best in the city, don't leave in the morning, the young master will definitely let you eat in the mansion, go in quickly," the fat aunt smiled and pulled the cardamom into it. government.

The guards were guarding the door early in the morning, and when they saw Dou Kou entering the mansion, they led her to the young master's study.
