The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 80
But it's a good thing she doesn't know the value of chili peppers, otherwise she will regret it and slap herself a few big mouths to relieve her hatred.

"Since this is the case, let's put it far away." He calmly snatched the cloth bag from the lady, and Min Lansheng took it into the room without even looking at it.

The lady is lying.This cannot be hidden from him.It's just that there are outsiders present at the moment, so the scholar will naturally not tell the truth.

Lifted the curtain and walked into the inner room, the light in the room was a little dark.

Min Lansheng opened the cloth bag and took a look inside, the acrid smell came to his face, which made him feel like sneezing too.He quickly grabbed his nose with his hands and raised his head, only then suppressing the uncomfortable feeling.

"What the hell is this? How can a fool see this surprise as if seeing a rare treasure..." Min Lansheng looked curiously at the small bag of chili seeds.

"Your yard looks really lively, and you can eat leeks as long as they grow. The first stubble of leeks tastes good, give more to scholars... to strengthen yang." Aunt Gao's deliberately lowered voice came in from outside, Min Lansheng His attention was immediately attracted, and his ears were strained, lest he could not hear.

"Auntie!" Miss Su called her with some embarrassment, just wanting to quickly divert this embarrassing topic.She was almost sure that the guy in the room must be hanging on the wall to eavesdrop, "This time Uncle Gao and Xiao Yue will stay at home for a few more days, right?"

"They don't know how to walk the darts." Aunt Gao sighed: "It's not that the Escort Bureau took over the business and left as soon as it came, where to go, how long to come back...there is never a certainty!"

As the saying goes: less is a husband and wife is always a companion.Now that their husband and wife are old, Aunt Gao doesn't want the child's father to travel around all year round.

When he went out the first year, she mentioned this matter. The old couple summed it up, and the youngest of the four sons in the family was not married.

To marry a daughter-in-law is to build a new house, plus buying a betrothal gift and wedding banquet, these are a lot of money.She can only watch her husband suffer for a few more years.

"It's not easy." Miss Su said with emotion, but she was still thinking about the small packet of chili seeds, wishing to plant those seeds immediately, and then fry a plate of hot pepper meat when the chili peppers were still tender. Si mixes it with rice... Just thinking about the appetizing taste makes her drool almost drop.

"It's from a scholar's family." Aunt Gao's voice interrupted her imagination, and Miss Su had no choice but to stretch her neck and swallow her saliva to wake up.

"I heard that the emperor has been changed in Beijing." She lowered her voice again, and poked her head towards Su Xiazhi: "This emperor's good tricks have made our Daliang a lot more peaceful. The road is easy to go, and the robbers have lost the business of the escort bureau." It’s also hard to do. It’s been more than half a year since my old man and little Si’er went out, and the two of them have earned such a small amount of money.” She stretched out her chubby fingers and gestured for a number, shaking her head and frowning. Helpless.

Su Xiazhi's heart skipped a beat: Why are you telling me this so nicely?borrow money?If she really borrowed money, she asked, should I borrow it or not?You have to write a letter to borrow it, right?Yes, in ancient times, a fingerprint was required...

"Auntie means, isn't your scholar able to talk to the master in the Heping County Yamen? If you have time, help Xiaosi find a serious job. It would be the best if you can work in the county government!" Aunt Gao Looking at her with a flattering smile on his face.

"This..." It turned out that Aunt Gao came here for this.Thinking of the fiery red official seal stamped on the letter received by Xiucai just now, Su Xiazhi understood.Laughing secretly, he had been thinking wildly for a long time, but he didn't expect to go up to the right place.

"I think Xiaoyue is still young, right?"

"It's not too young!" Aunt Gao stood up with a stare, and resumed her confident loud voice: "I'm sixteen this year! When I married his father, his father was only 17 years old."

"Sixteen?" Su Xia looked into the room with a guilty conscience, and Min Lansheng was looking at her with her chin up and her nostrils, and she almost laughed out: "You mean the old age, right?"

"Hey, it's almost a year and a half." Aunt Gao waved her hand indifferently: "Don't look at his young age, the kung fu on his body is not something I, a mother, can boast about. It's decent! His father personally urged him to beat him since he was a child. Basically, none of the three older brothers above him are his opponents!"

The old son is very popular, just by looking at Aunt Gao's expression, she knows that Gao Yue must be the one who hurts her the most.

"In this way, when the scholar comes out later, I will discuss it with him. I will write back to you if it is successful." The words are ambiguous. Su Xiazhi doesn't know whether the scholar is willing to help this favor, nor Knowing whether he has the ability to help this favor, naturally he can't agree.

"That's fine." Knowing that Xiucai was staying in the back room, he could definitely hear what was said outside. Aunt Gao said what she should have said, and got up to leave. When she reached the door, she pointed to the row of bare plants in front of the window curiously. Asked: "What kind of plant is that? My aunt looks familiar."

"That's a peony. I bought it from the town." Miss Su said with a bit of pride.Although she doesn't know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting that everyone is good at, she can plant flowers and plants. The few peonies she bought are alive under her careful care. When the flowers bloom, she walks in and out in a row by herself. In "National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance", this can be regarded as an elegant thing...

"Peony?" Aunt Gao couldn't remember where she had seen peony flowers before, so she felt that those things looked familiar: "Auntie's memory... Sigh!"

After sending away the neighbor who had never remembered where she had seen peony flowers, Miss Su ran into the house quickly: "Xiucai, show me again! Hurry up!" She urged impatiently.

Min Lansheng pointed back at the table behind him, on which the small cloth bag was placed: "What is this? You are so nervous."

"This is..." Huh?

Miss Su looked away from the cloth bag and looked at Min Lansheng: "How do you know I know you?"

"Tch." The scholar chuckled, thinking that her question was too superficial to answer.

"Is my performance that failure?" She took the cloth bag on the table and checked the contents again. She walked behind Xiucai and leaned down and whispered in his ear, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be It's chili seeds."

"Oh? Is it a flower?" Xiucai was packing her things, flipping through the papers on the desk one by one, picking and choosing.

"Are you going out?" Su Xiazhi asked in surprise.
