Liu An Hua Ming You Yi Village

Chapter 66

They and Du Yu's family did not live together, but scattered, and the houses could not all be empty in one place.

This time, everyone met and talked about it.The children were big and small, but Du Yu found that those who were selected as scholars were at least in their thirties, and there were several children.

The boy in one of the families saw the big grapefruit on the table, and wanted to hug and play with it, but his mother slapped him and made him keep on slapping it. The boy burst into tears, and his mother was so embarrassed that he died , I feel that this dead child is really ignorant, and wants everything he sees.

A maid came over, peeled the grapefruit, and gave a share to the children.Du Yu thanked her, the maid was a little startled, but soon smiled.

The meals prepared by Dean Chu here are very rich. Although there were maids at first, when it was time to eat, those maids were all withdrawn. I guess they knew that everyone was uncomfortable, so it was like that.

Du Yu took a look, good guy, there are quite a lot of children here, and they are all accompanied by their mothers. At first their mothers were still telling them to obey the rules and not to rob them randomly. I've never had it before, it's delicious.So I really let go and ate it.

Du Yu was stunned for a moment, and the food in front of him was robbed.Well, she just let it go.When you have money, you can eat in your own house, and see who will rob her!
For this meal, Du Yu ate more white rice, but less vegetables.However, I heard that some people go to other people's houses as guests and only eat a few small bites, so she can still earn money.

After returning from Dean Chu's house, Hu was very happy, and said to Du Youzhong: "Looking at it today, it's better for us children to understand etiquette." It's like putting it out of the mouth, and the mouth is full of oil.

According to Hu's own understanding, the conditions of these people's families are similar to theirs, and they usually eat less meat, but these people need to be compared. After comparing them, she feels that the children in her family are really sensible Very, not strong at all.

Hu's self-satisfied, Du Youzhong didn't hit him hard. In comparison, his own children are really good.

Even Mrs. Chu heard it from the maid, and also knew that the children of the Du family were stronger than others.

Mrs. Chu said: "It's rare, they all grew up in the countryside."

"Yes, I heard that the children in the countryside have to work since they were young."

Mrs. Chu thought again of what her husband had said to herself. Du Youzhong, Du Xiucai, was a scholar who had worked in the accountant for many years before being admitted to the exam. He was the boss of the family.He raised a large family, and because of this, Dean Chu took a fancy to Du Youzhong's character, unlike some people who dragged the whole family to death in order to test for fame.

"Du Youzhong never went to school, and it was his father who taught him since he was a child. When he grew up, he went out to find a job, and after more than ten years to catch up for the exam, Yiju was admitted as a scholar. He was admitted as a scholar. He was not like others. The same, just stay at home to study, but still come out to teach, I think such a person will definitely not be far behind in the future."

The Du family didn't know about the compliments of Dean Chu and his wife. On this day, Du Youde came to see them on behalf of the whole family. Du Yu and the others were very happy. Although they settled down here, they still missed their family members. .

"Mother asked me to ask my eldest brother and sister-in-law, how many days off do you have during the Dragon Boat Festival? Can you go back?" Du Youde said.

This time I sent a basket of eggs, some green vegetables, and pickled sauerkraut, and I brought several jars of them.

Mrs. Hu hurriedly said: "Fourth brother, don't bring so many things here from now on, keep them for yourselves to eat."

Du Youde said with a smile: "There are still some at home, mother said, you also eat the same at home, it's nothing."

The family's land has also been harvested. This year, a lot of wheat has been harvested, and rice seedlings have been raised.When harvesting wheat, they hired short-time laborers, and they were not too tired, so they kept what they ate and sold the rest for more than ten taels of silver.

Du Youzhong said: "During the Dragon Boat Festival, we can have three days off here. Let's go back to celebrate the festival." After all, it is not his home outside. When Du Youzhong used to work as a accountant in the town, he would go home for the holidays.

Hearing that Erlang and Du Yu were very happy to be able to go back at the Dragon Boat Festival, Du Youde said, "Then I will pick you up early then."

"Don't be so troublesome, let's rent a car and take us there directly." Du Youzhong said.

Keeping Du Youde for one night, he went back early the next day, and the Dragon Boat Festival was getting closer.The students of Jinxi Academy have another task this year, which is to represent Jinxi Academy in a dragon boat race with other teams in the county. According to Du Yu, that is the student team.

You must know that the six arts of a gentleman are not only able to read, but also have requirements for riding and archery. Jinxi Academy does not make people study nerds, and there are masters who teach riding and archery.

Last year, due to the drought, the dragon boat race was not held. This year, people from all walks of life are striving to win the championship.

Hearing the news, Erlang wanted to stay and watch the dragon boat race again, but he also wanted to go back to watch. Both choices were painful.

But after all, he was a small person, so in the end he could only follow the carriage back to Yangliu Village.

They also went to the county town and bought a lot of things in the county town, such as pastries, rice dumplings from the county town, and special products of Yunyang County.

Hu Xin also wanted to go home. The horse-drawn carriage was much faster than the donkey cart. In the afternoon, he drove back from the county seat.
Xin sent them home, and took out the things he had bought for the Hu family. Uncle Hu knew that they were rushing home, so he didn't keep them.

My son lives and boards at his brother-in-law's house, needless to say, Uncle Hu keeps it in mind.

And in the evening, the carriage entered Yangliu Village. At this time, people who came back from the fields were going home. When they saw the carriage, they found out that it was Du Youzhong's family who came back for the festival.

"Du's second child is considered a late blessing. I didn't expect that at this age, there would be a son who was selected as a scholar. He even caught up with the carriage."

"Who says it's not? People are now hiring people to do all the work in the field. The days are getting better and better." Everyone in the village envied them. When the carriage arrived at the door of Du's house, Du Erlang had already shouted in the carriage. After getting out, Qi and the others hurried over, seeing that it was really the eldest son who had returned.

"It can be regarded as coming back! The house is ready." Qi said.

Seeing that he had bought so many things, Mrs. Qi said, "Why are you wasting money? What's missing at home?"

Mr. Du said: "Tell me about you, talking about you at home every day, the boss and the others are back, and you say something like this again, after buying things, isn't it because they respect you?"

"Damn old man, don't you like me to say a few words."

Du Youzhong and the coachman calculated the money. The coachman's business is good these days, so he has to hurry to the county town.

Seeing the car payment, Mrs. Qi felt distressed again, and now there are so many tens of pennies gone.It's too expensive to spend money.

But now that her son is coming back, she might as well hold back and talk about it later.

Mrs. Hu also ripped off a whole set of clothes for Mr. Du and Mrs. Qi. Mrs. Qi was happy, but said: "I'm getting old now, it doesn't matter if I wear new clothes or not. You spend money and save money in the future. That money doesn’t come from the wind.”

"Yes, mother, you are right. It's just that we took advantage of you because the cloth in this store was cheap. It was just in time for the festival and the price was reduced, so we bought it." Mrs. Hu knew that Mrs. Qi would be happy.

"That's all, don't do this in the future."

Mrs. Hu and the others came back, and Mrs. Qi didn't let Mrs. Hu do the things in the kitchen.Mrs. Hu also brought things for her two sisters-in-law and brother-in-law, and sent them over one by one.

Mrs. Zhao looked at this piece of floral cloth and rubbed it for a long time. It was really worth it for her to marry, the better the days go by.

Although Gao Shi is also happy, she is depressed because her stomach still has no movement, the better the family, but she has been married for two years, who will think highly of you if she doesn't have a baby?

The mother-in-law asked her a few times, and she knew what it meant, but what could she do, her stomach was not up to date, and she was also very anxious.

When I went back to my natal family, my natal family also asked me to take good care of my mother-in-law, saying that I was blessed to marry a good family, and who would not envy me in ten miles and eight villages.

Even the fifth younger brother Youquan got married, and now there are many matchmakers coming to the door, it is entirely they who pick others.

For dinner in the evening, we set up a big table, and we don’t separate men’s and women’s tables. Everyone eats together. Du Yu is very close to grandma. After they leave, there are no children in the family. The Qi family treats Du Yu much better. .

Erlang kept talking, talking about things in the academy and interesting stories about his classmates.Mr. Du couldn't even close his mouth with a smile, "Okay, okay, Erlang's reading is much better than before, and he has to keep working hard."

He has studied in school and knows the importance of classmates. If there is any loyalty, he will lose here. If he didn't go to school, he didn't have any classmates.

But there are no classmates, and it is not bad to have them in the same year.

Even Du Yu also talked about some interesting things in Jinxi Academy, and also said that they planted and harvested in the yard, and raised chickens.The chicks are all grown up now.

"This is a good thing. Whenever I can save it, I should save it. It doesn't take much to raise chickens. By the way, when you are gone, who will watch the chickens?" Qi was worried about this matter. coming.

"Mother, don't worry, we also have a few neighbors who get along well, let them take care of us for a few days, it's okay."

Mrs. Qi nodded, suddenly Mrs. Zhao retched without knowing what she had eaten, and Mrs. Qi's eyes lit up.
