Chapter 85 Silly Zhu seems to be smart!
Dong Rong waved her hands indifferently, "It's not easy, just give birth next spring and build a few more chicken sheds."

"Okay, I won't be courteous to my boss anymore. Although my old lady is half-blind, she is famous for raising chickens in the village. Then I will feed all the chickens of the boss, and keep them fat and fat."

Meihua's mother also chimed in, "That's true, the chickens in my sister-in-law's house have always grown the fastest."

"Then I took advantage of it. Not only did I get a carpenter to do the work, but I also hired a chicken farmer." Dong Rong couldn't see the old lady's face was full of tears, and smiled to make her happy.

Sure enough, everyone laughed when they heard this.The mother and son of the Yu family thought that their livelihood would be secure in the future, and they would not have to sleep in the open, so they felt relieved from the inside out.

Dong Rong turned around to look at the silent silly Zhu, feeling sorry for him who walked dozens of miles behind her back, so she pretended to go back to the orchard.How could the Yu family's mother and son and Mei Huaer's mother let them go on a night trip and fight each other for a long time? In the end, it was Mei Hua'er's mother who invited them to her house and lived in Mei Hua'er's boudoir before she got married.

Dong Rong asked for a basin of hot water, and washed Shazhu's feet with her own hands. After careful inspection, she saw that there was no blister on the sole of his feet, so she was relieved, raised her head and said, "It's not that I don't have legs, so don't carry me on the road next time." .If you are exhausted and someone beats me again, I will have nowhere to hide!"

"Who dares? See how I beat him to the ground!" Silly Zhu recalled how proud her little daughter-in-law was in front of the Chu family before, as if she was very proud of having a silly husband.It turned out to be such a joyful feeling to be trusted wholeheartedly, and the smile in his eyes became even stronger when he looked at the busy white and tender hands in the basin.

Dong Rong Xu also thought of the previous incident, and rarely smiled shyly, and said, "Zhuzi, remember that today's incident should not be mentioned to outsiders. Not to mention that after giving birth to a family, I will live in the orchard, but today I came forward to save people. It's a bit reckless, if someone's tongue-in-cheek woman's mouth is a little crooked, the word that gets out must be ugly."

Sha Zhu nodded, withdrew his wet feet, wiped them indiscriminately and replied, "I see, go to sleep."

Dong Rong didn't give any more instructions after hearing his answer. That's why Shazhu is good. Although he is still a bit inferior to ordinary people, no matter what it is, as long as he agrees, he will definitely obey and complete it, and he will never play tricks.This is also the reason why she is more and more at ease relying on him, not to mention whether it is because of learning arithmetic, Sha Zhu gradually became much smarter than before.

It seems that it has been a long time since I saw him lying on the ground playing with ants or being in a daze. Could it be that if he persisted in this way for a few more years, he would become like an ordinary person?At that time, can he still tolerate being the master of the house and making decisions on his own?Is she going to be like those women in the village going around the stove all day long, only going out once or twice a year, and then giving birth endlessly?
Dong Rong shivered in shock, and after pouring out the footwashing water and returning to the house, she raised Sha Zhu's head up and down to look him up and down, causing Sha Zhu to ask with a silly smile, "What's the matter?"

Dong Rong shook her head slowly, and replied with a sigh, "I found that you are much smarter than before."

Sha Zhu's heart trembled, and he said vaguely, "I can do arithmetic and write!"

"Could it be that arithmetic problems really have the effect of improving intelligence?" Dong Rong frowned, and finally patted silly Zhu on the head domineeringly and said, "Zhu Zi, you are as good as you are now, and you can't be smarter. If you are smarter than me, I will I'm afraid I won't survive."

"What?"

"Oh, you don't understand even if you say it. In short, the way you are now is the best, and you can't change it."

"Okay, I won't change."

Xu got Sha Zhu's promise, Dong Rong felt relieved, and pulled off the quilt to call him to sleep.

After tossing about forty miles in the middle of the night and fighting wits and courage with many old foxes for a long time, Dong Rong was really tired, and almost fell asleep after closing her eyes.Sha Zhu didn't feel sleepy at all, he held his wife tightly in his arms, squinted his eyes and thought a lot.It's a pity, how could he, a big man who is just in love, understand the needle in the bottom of a woman's heart?After tossing like this until early in the morning, he managed to fall asleep...

Dong Rong slept very well this time. When she got up early, she secretly kissed Sha Zhu on the cheek when she was still asleep, and then got up to wash her face.

Meihua's mother tossed out all the delicious food at home, and took her daughter-in-law to work in the kitchen early in the morning. She stewed a pheasant, fried a bacon, and stewed a big pot of two rice.It is rare for the family to have such a rich meal, so happy that the two children crowded in the kitchen and refused to move, just greedy to smell more aromas.

Dong Rong really wanted to accept the old lady's love and eat a few more bites, but the pheasant chicken was fried without adding oil, and it tasted fishy and pungent.The bacon has also been stored for many years, and it is a bit ridiculously hard.She had no choice but to pretend to love the children, and always put the meat in her bowl to the two children.The two children ate very sweetly, and occasionally looked up at the aunt who treated them so well, grinning and showing small gaps in her teeth, which made the whole family treat Dong Rong even more affectionately.Dong Rong was a little ashamed in her heart, thinking that she should prepare some snacks for Meihua to send back when she goes back.

After breakfast, the young couple bid farewell to the old and young of the family and the mother and son of Yu's family before rushing back to the orchard.Mei Huaer's mother trotted back to the house and took a thick long scarf and handed it to Dong Rong, "It's cold on the road, my boss should wear this. If you don't like it, throw it to my Mei Huaer."

Dong Rong saw the red plum blossoms embroidered on the scarf and guessed that it was specially made by the old lady for her daughter, so she refused to accept it.Helplessly, the old lady wrapped her around her neck, and then pushed the two of them out of the village.

Dong Rong and Sha Zhu walked all the way home on the mountain road, and the surrounding forests had already lost their greenness and replaced them with a pale yellow color.The cold wind blows, and the sporadic leaves that are still hanging on the branches rustle, which makes people feel more chilly.Dong Rong half hid behind the silly pillar, but her little face was still flushed by the north wind.She turned her head to see that the jacket on Sha Zhu's body was a little thin, and she regretted that she should have left too hastily last night, if only Sha Zhu could wear a big jacket.

Fortunately, the scarf that Mei Hua'er's mother sewed was very long, she tore it apart twice and wrapped it around Sha Zhu's neck, barely shielding him from the cold wind blowing into his neck.Silly Zhu lowered his head slightly and saw his daughter-in-law's small face half hidden in the scarf, leaving only a pair of big eyes looking around. For some reason, he thought of Guoguo who stayed at home, so he couldn't help laughing.

Dong Rong was baffled by what she heard, and was thrown on the back by Sha Zhu just as she was about to ask.She was afraid that silly Zhu would get tired, and she would struggle to get off the ground, "Zhu Zhu, I can walk by myself. What are you doing with me on your back? There is still a long way to go."

Silly Zhu refused to let him go no matter what she said. Dong Rong had no choice but to wrap the scarf tighter, and said angrily, "Since you like to carry your wife, you can carry it, but it's not good if you grow a pig's mouth and pig's ears in the future." Blame me."

Silly Zhu has never heard the story of Zhu Bajie carrying his wife on his back, so he naturally doesn't understand why his wife and pig are together.Dong Rong smiled and started talking to him, but in the end she was thrown up by the angry silly Zhu from time to time and narrowly caught, making her scream continuously...

The young couple didn't realize how hard the journey was because they were fighting like this, and they finally arrived near the orchard at noon, where they sat on a dead tree stump for a rest.Dong Rong leaned against Sha Zhu's arms while talking, and suddenly felt a coolness on her neck, and looked up to see fine snowflakes floating in the sky.She jumped up in surprise and said with a smile, "Oh, it's snowing."

"It's snowing, it's time to kill the pig."

"Yeah, but Brother Ping and the others haven't come back yet, let's wait a little longer." Dong Rong thought about her younger brother who was away from home again, and sighed, "It's even more difficult to walk when it snows, I don't know if Brother Ping and the others are leaving Where have you been, and how long will it take to come back?"

Perhaps Beifeng couldn't bear Dong Rong's longing and thinking, and when he flew past happily, he brought a crisp sound of horse bells. Dong Rong seemed to have a sense of it, and suddenly looked at the official road to the north, and said pleasantly, "Pillar, it seems Brother Ping is back."

Silly Zhu jumped on a half-person-high rock and looked from afar, seeing that the figure sitting on the shaft of the chariot really looked like Guanshi Zhang, so he said, "Go over and have a look."

The young couple walked quickly along the mountain road, and soon came to the carriage.Dong Ping heard Zhang Guanshi's report in the car, and immediately jumped out of the carriage and stumbled to his sister, shouting, "Sister, I'm back, I'm back!"

Dong Rong hugged her younger brother and patted his back hard, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Are you tired? Why are you so thin? Are you picking your mouth on the road and not eating well?"

"No, sister, I have become stronger, and I haven't lost much weight." Dong Ping hugged his sister's arm, his face flushed with joy, wishing to tell his sister everything.

At this time, Guanshi Zhang and Xizi also came over, Qiqi saluted Dong Rong and his wife, and Dong Ping hurriedly saluted the smiling brother-in-law, "Brother-in-law, I bought you a lot of fun things in Kyoto, as well as various snacks. I'll bring it to you when I get home."

"Okay."

Dong Rong helped Guanshi Zhang and Xizi to get up, and sincerely thanked, "You have worked hard all the way, are you all in good health? Now go home and rest more, and tomorrow I will kill a pig to cleanse you."

Steward Zhang heard that the boss didn't mention the fruit business, and only cared about their health and whether the journey was hard. He was very grateful for the post, and quickly said, "Working for the boss, it's not hard at all."

Xizi also wanted to talk, but the cold wind blowing into his nose made him sneezed twice.Everyone laughed and got on the carriage one after another and rushed to the orchard.

Today it was Zhao Qingshan's turn to patrol the orchard with a young man. The two hid in the chicken house to warm up the fire. Suddenly they heard the noise outside and greeted them, just in time to help carry the boxes and cages up the mountain.

The fruit sold for a good price this time, and Dong Ping felt sorry for his sister's years of hard work, and almost bought a lot of women's things he could think of.So the two carriages were filled with thin wooden boxes except for the place where people sat. This one was filled with silk and satin, and the other was filled with rouge and gouache jewelry. Although it was not heavy, it was very trivial to carry.
