Reborn under the White Mountain

Chapter 179

Dalang returned home and told Fang about the situation there.Fang thought for a while, "Thanks to the fact that you bought a lot of meat from the town yesterday, or you would have been caught blind today. Dalang, do you still have any fish you caught? It looks like you should get more fish today. "

"Mother, don't worry, there are plenty of fish. We caught fish, and this time we kept them in our small river. We dug a small bubble there, and there were a lot of fish in it. I'll go catch some, today It looks like we have to set up ten tables. Mother, you can cook other dishes first, I’ll be back in a while.” Then, Da Lang picked up a big bucket, went out to call Xiao San and the others, and went fishing.

Fang was thinking about what to cook at home. At this time, the cucumbers in the field had just come down, and there were also leeks, chrysanthemum chrysanthemums, and spinach.The daughter-in-laws who were helping out also gave their ideas, and finally came up with ten dishes.So, everyone started to cook.

At noon, Yun Song asked all the workers to come down, and everyone went to eat and rest together.Those who helped were also tired, and their heads were covered with sweat.Yun Song invited the magistrate and magistrate to his home for lunch.The last time the magistrate and county magistrate came, they felt that the food at the farmhouse was good and tasty, and they wanted to try it again today.So he didn't refuse, and went directly to Tong's house, followed by those who worked behind him.

When they arrived at Tong's house, Fang had already placed the table in the front yard. Of course, the prefect's table was in the living room.There is a pot of mung bean sweet soup on each table, which was boiled by Yuxian and Chunmei when she got up in the morning, and it has cooled down now.Fang said, "I'm too tired from work. It's hot today. Come on, let's all sit down and finish the mung bean soup first to quench our thirst. The dishes are ready, and we'll serve them right away."

Everyone sat down one after another, took a bowl of soup, and drank something cold to feel comfortable from the inside out.Everyone couldn't help admiring the thoughtfulness of the Tong family.After drinking a bowl of soup, the daughters-in-law began to serve the dishes, and after a while, the table was full.Fang said over there: "This season, there is nothing good. Let's just eat something. I'm sorry, big guy."

A man laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, you are too polite. This dish will catch up with the Chinese New Year, isn't it good? How can we eat such a good dish at home? My mother-in-law has already said that this year's Brother Tong's helper, I'm getting fat." Everyone laughed when they heard this. "No, the food at Brother Yunsong's house is the most affordable, rich in oil and water. Those of us who come to work are all weighed. Sister-in-law, if you have any work at your family next year, you must think about our brothers. "

After hearing this, Fang smiled and went into the house to serve the meal.

Yun Song was naturally in the house with the Cao brothers and the two adults. When the magistrate saw these dishes, he said, "Yun Song, do you take care of the food like this every day? Doesn't it mean that you have to eat all the food?" A lot of money?"

"My lord, there are more people on the beam today. Usually there are about thirty people. The people here are really hardworking and work hard. You think we can't just make vegetarian dishes for others? Although we usually say It’s not as good, but it’s about the same, usually eight dishes and one soup. This is the glory of our village, so of course we can’t cherish the money.” Yun Song explained to the magistrate.

Cao Hanhai didn't say anything, just nodded with a smile.He is still very satisfied with this nephew, he is honest and sincere.Although this kind of temperament sometimes suffers, but this kind of person is also the person that others are most willing to make friends with, and once there is something, others will try their best to help.

"Yunsong, isn't your Jun Wei at home? That kid is really good. He got good grades in this year's county examination. I talked to him a few words, and the answers were calm. There is also Xue Bowen's, It’s also very good, I heard it’s a relative of your family? Well, Yun Song, let Junwei study hard. In the future, he will come back with a good reputation, and he will live up to the emperor’s kindness of chasing him as Zhongyi Bo.” The county magistrate Stroking his beard, he told Yun Song about Erlang and Bowen.

"That's right, I also saw Junwei during the government examination. This kid did very well in the government examination. There will be a college examination this fall. Let him study hard at that time. If he passes the examination, he will Let him study in Fucheng. After all, there are good academies in Fucheng, and Junwei can learn more things there.” When the prefect heard what the magistrate said, he also remembered.

"Thank you two adults for your compliments. If Gouzi knows about it, I won't be so happy. Gouzi has only studied for a short time, and she just studied at home with her mother. I just entered the school last year, and it is not bad to pass the government examination. Yes. If you can pass the college examination, it will be really blessed by the ancestors of the Tong family." Of course Yun Song can't praise his own children, "Come on, two adults, two uncles, let's eat vegetables. Uncle Li, you too Eat vegetables." It turned out that Li Futian was called to accompany the guests again.The other old people in the village didn't come. They felt uncomfortable seeing the official.

"Yun Song, this time my uncle came here and planned to stay for a few more days, but you are too busy. Sigh, let's talk about it later." Seeing the busy scene just now, Cao Hanhai felt that he was here, just Add to the chaos.

"Uncle, what I just wanted to say is that since I'm here, I can definitely stay for a few more days. After finishing the beams, I won't be too busy. I only need a few people to do the work in the future. I also hired carpenters and bricklayers. Just let them lead you to do it, and I will accompany uncle well, it is rare for you to come here." Yun Song hurriedly tried to persuade them to stay.

"Yes, Mr. Cao, you should stay here for a while. Look at the beautiful mountains and clear waters. When you are free, go fishing by the river or go hunting in the mountains. Isn't it good? I envy you Such a day, it’s a pity that I have an official position now, so I don’t have a free time.” Song Zhifu also helped Yun Song persuade Cao Hanhai, this old Cao is not an ordinary person, don’t look at returning home, but he still has unknown influence in the capital .

"Brother, let's just stay here for a few days, and we don't need Yun Song to accompany us all day. Don't we have children? I think the children of Yun Song's family are all extraordinary, so let them accompany us. With the children together, maybe they can be rejuvenated." Cao Hanmo also persuaded.

"Success, just stay here for a while." Cao Hanhai agreed.Everyone was very happy and kept trying to persuade them to drink.After a while, several people were a little drunk.Yun Song didn't dare to drink too much, he still had to lead people to work in the afternoon.

Satisfied with wine and food, Mr. Song and Mr. Qian are about to say goodbye.Yun Song stayed for a while, Master Song said: "Oh, the official is not free, there are still a lot of official affairs to be dealt with in the government office, we can't delay any longer."

After seeing off the two adults, Yun Song arranged for the two uncles to live in the east wing of the front yard.Fang ordered Chunmei and the two to clean the house.In fact, the East Wing is very clean. Fang is a restless person. Whenever she has free time, she will clean it up, so it is enough to simply clean the inside.Mrs. Fang found out two sets of newly made quilts at home and put them in the east chamber.Thanks to the many quilts made at home, otherwise there would really not be enough.The two who came with them and three servants were arranged in the West Wing.The carpenters and bricklayers brought from the town also live in the west wing.

Yun Song naturally had to go to the ancestral hall to watch the work, and the two brothers of the Cao family drank some wine and went to rest.In one afternoon, everyone finished the rest of the work, and Yun Song left them for dinner, saying that there would be no need for these people tomorrow.Only Zhuzhu, Huzi, and Shuanzi were left, and they were asked to work for a few more days to help the bricklayer, and they all agreed.

The two brothers Cao Hanhai lived in Tong's house. They went to the river to catch fish and climbed trees to catch birds with Yuxian and the others every day. They had a great time playing.When Cao Hanhai saw the Tong family's mountain forest, he thought it was really good, but it may take many years to fully utilize it.

On this day, the children went hunting in the mountains again, and Xiao San said nothing to let the two uncles go.When the two of them went up the mountain, they didn't go hunting. They made trouble, which caused them to miss a lot of hunting.So the two old men were disgusted, so they had to play chess with Yuan Qingyun at home.In the past few days, the two of them got along well with Yuan Qingyun, playing chess and chatting with him every day.

Yuxian also followed her brothers up the mountain. They walked all the way deep into the forest, but they didn't see any prey.After walking for four, five, 10 minutes, Yuxian was a little tired, so she said she wanted to take a rest.So, everyone sat down to rest, Xiaosi just wanted to sit down, but his hand touched something cool.He quickly lowered his head and saw that it was a big snake. What he touched just now was the snake's body.Quickly jumped forward, "There are snakes, be careful."

At this time, the snake also reacted, raised its head, spit out the letter and came towards Xiaosi.This snake is quite thick, about the thickness of an adult's calf, and more than one foot long.The color of his body is similar to that of dead wood, no wonder he didn't notice it just now.Xiao Si didn't panic, the dagger in his hand shot at the snake's seven inches, and Xiao San also rushed over, holding the short sword in his hand, and slashed at the snake.It's also the snake's bad luck. Today, after finally staying there for a while, I ran into the child of Tong's family.Xiaosi's dagger first shot to seven inches, and then Xiaosan's short sword also arrived, directly chopping off the snake's neck.

"Thanks for not letting uncle and grandpa come here today, otherwise, if you can't get anything, you might hurt them." Xiao Wu said happily, patting his chest.

"Isn't it? With them here for the past few days, we can't get anything any day. Come on, let's take this big guy home and make snake soup for dinner." Xiaosan picked up the snake's body, Go outside the woods.

"Third brother, let's go to the ditch outside our forest for a while to have a look, maybe we can find some prey or something, it would be a pity not to rot in it after a long time." Yu Xian suggested,
