Chapter 143 The Abacus Is Empty (1)
Strangers came to deliver things, and they couldn’t hide it from their family members. The family had dinner at night. Mrs. Ma asked, "I heard from people in the village that our family is here today? It seems that someone came to deliver things. Is it Mr. Xu, the county magistrate?" "

Xu Wang is a man who knows how to make a living. Knowing that Lu family and Mo Yan are not going out as guests in the near future, he is not reluctant, but he will send housekeepers to deliver some food and daily necessities on a regular basis. These things are not expensive and can be bought in the county. , but there are many styles, it seems to be extremely careful.

The family didn't refuse this time, but Mrs. Lu still has some considerations. These things are worthless, so they should be regarded as two family walks, not to mention accepting bribes, and have no impact on the official career of their master. Besides, the hometown is in Yingchuan, so it is inevitable When he was employed as a parent officer, he always turned people away, showing that he looked down on others, which would make Xu Wang feel bad.Mrs. Lu brought too many things back home, and the family couldn’t finish them all. Grandpa and grandma are enlightened people, so they asked the two daughter-in-laws to send some of them to their natal family. After all, it’s not too cold now. alright.

"I didn't see it. I came back later than the third sibling."

Mrs. Ma is the chef at home, Mrs. Zhao is not in a hurry, and her natal home is far away, so she stayed for a while after finally going back.When I came back, it was still raining heavily, and I didn't see anyone in the village.

Mrs. Ma and Mrs. Zhao are both daughters of the surrounding farmers, especially Mrs. Zhao. When they married, the family was poor and poor, and all the money was taken away by the second eldest Mo Zhongchen and handed over to Shu Xiu. Although she is a peasant woman, she is very supportive of Mo Zhongchen. , looking forward to it in his heart, if he has good luck in the future, he can somewhat take care of Mo Qingyun.

There will be rewards only if there is dedication, because Zhao is open-minded and reasonable, and she can endure hardships when she works, and her family respects her very much.It is said that the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, and she is such a stingy Mo Zhongchen. Every year when the Lu family sends people to give New Year gifts, she will ask a few words. The elder sister-in-law has paid too much for this family in the past. She should send more fabrics and let her make some clothes. new clothes.

In the year when Mo Zhongchen took the Juren examination, Yingchuan's times were not good. The back of the mountain village had not been developed, and the villagers seldom left the village, so they lived on the harvest of the fields.There was a plague of locusts that year, and all the food was eaten by locusts, and the production was reduced on a large scale. The family lived on the clear rice porridge.

At that time, not long after Mrs. Zhao married into the Mo family, his grandfather Mo Shouren sold the only food in the family, leaving only a little, in order to collect money for Mo Zhongchen to go to the provincial government for the exam. I work in the town and stay away from home all day.

Everyone in the family felt sorry for Mrs. Zhao, so grandma told her that it was not easy to cultivate a scholar in the family. If she gave up at this time, Mo Zhongchen would have to go to the town to be a teacher in the future. They will feel very ashamed of their son.

The next day, Mrs. Zhao disappeared, everyone in the family thought she had gone back to her mother's house in a fit of anger, uncle Mo Zhong's eyes were red, and he was very sad, but my younger brother was one step away now, so it's not good to give up halfway.

Unexpectedly, in the evening, Mrs. Zhao came back in a bullock cart, not only bringing back food, but also the money borrowed from her natal family.This moved the family to tears, a friend in adversity sees the truth.Later, my aunt had difficulty getting pregnant, and Mo Qingyun was born a few years later, but no one in the family said anything, and grandma kept comforting Zhao Shi, letting her relax.

"Master Xu has sent people here too frequently in the past few days. We have enough things at home."

Mrs. Zhao also muttered, the family members don't like to take advantage, if Mrs. Lu and Mo Yan didn't live at home, they wouldn't have taken anything for food.

"Uncle, Third Aunt, it's not Mrs. Xu, someone came to give me something."

Mo Yan felt very embarrassed, she didn't know what to find an excuse to explain, simply, when the family members learned that it was a gift for Mo Yan, they changed the subject and talked about the marriage of brother Mo Qingyun next month.

It's only been a month, the new house at home is almost furnished, and the things that need to be bought have been piled up in the warehouse early. Grandma thinks that the country people don't pay attention to those rules. Anything that needs to be added should be fully prepared.

After dinner, Mrs. Lu asked Mo Yan to go back to her room. She casually picked up the teacup, took a sip, and asked, "Who sent it?"

As Mo Yan's mother, she knows how much her daughter weighs. This time when the two return to their hometown, there are not many people who know the inside. inside story.

Although Niangqin pretended to be indifferent, she actually cared a lot. Under the strong pressure, Mo Yan bit the bullet and stammered, "Yes...it's the prince."

Mo Yan originally thought that if she uttered these words, she would be reprimanded by her mother. Accepting a gift from a foreigner privately without any relatives and no reason would hurt the reputation of a woman who has not left the cabinet, but the strange thing is that Mrs. Lu suddenly smiled, with soft eyebrows and eyes , "Since the prince gave it to you, why are you still hiding it? Why don't you fetch it to open your mother's eyes!"

Hearing this, Mo Xiang didn't pay attention to her lady's color at all, and walked out happily, Mo Yan lamented in her heart, this heartless maid!Nothing else, at least the crested hairpin must be hidden!

One autumn rain and one cold, even though Kaoshan Village is in the southern part of Da Vietnam, it is still unavoidable to be cold after the rain, especially in the evening.The oil lamp was lit in the room, and the big maid, Mo Li, specially lit the incense of jasmine, and the fragrance wafted faintly.

After a while, Mo Xiang hurried over with the box in his arms, but when he opened the box, there was no hairpin in it, it must have been hidden by Mo Bing.Even so, Mrs. Lu was still amazed at the jewelry. There is no woman who does not love beauty. Originally, she thought that King Nanping was too old, fully eight years older than his daughter Mo Yan, but now she is more and more satisfied.

Others are excited and happy when they receive gifts, but Mo Yan is anxious. When practicing at night, she whispered to Mo Bing, "Mo Bing, why do I feel a little guilty about receiving gifts? Could it be that he wants something from me?"

"Miss, you can take it at ease, it is what you deserve."

Not long after Mo Yan received the gift, Mo Bing also received a letter. It can be said that these things were prepared by servants. Nanping Wang Wanqi Yuling took a look at it, and it was mainly for rewarding Mo Yan. From a few days ago.

A few days ago, when Mo Qingyun came back from a dart trip, Mo Yan begged the hall brother to take her up the mountain to collect herbs. During the period, she killed a few wild rabbits. When she returned home, Ma Shi cut the rabbits into cubes and made them with chili peppers. Eating rabbits was said by a herb picker from a foreign country while chatting in the village.
