When Yang Haiyan woke up, the bedside was already empty and cold. She knew that Qin Fang was used to getting up early and rarely stayed in bed. Occasionally he stayed in bed to accompany her: "Aunt Lian..."

Every time after Aunt Lian got up, she would stand guard at the door of her room. When she had nothing to do, she would make something by herself, while Aunt Yu would stand guard at the door of the yard. So Yang Haiyan was used to them being in front of each other.

Aunt Lian heard Yang Haiyan's voice and came in: "My wife is awake."

Yang Haiyan said in a hoarse voice that sounded like she had just woken up: "Wake up. The more you fall asleep, the more tired you become. Where is Da Jing?"

Aunt Lian said: "The elder went hunting with his private guards and told us to wait for the meat at night."

When Yang Haiyan heard this, she smiled and said: "He can't stay idle. Then we will wait for meat at night. If we don't get the meat, it will be embarrassing for him." After that, he sat down in front of the bronze mirror and asked Aunt Lian combed her hair.

After combing her hair, Aunt Yu had already prepared hot water and was waiting aside. After Yang Haiyan washed up, she sat in front of the bronze mirror and started skin care. At the same time, she asked Aunt Lian, "Are Siya and Shoucheng up?"

Aunt Lian: "Miss Ya and Brother Cheng got up early. They had already had breakfast and were playing together. Just a few of the wives of the private guards came over. The old slave said that you haven't gotten up yet, so let them spend the afternoon. come over."

Yang Haiyan nodded: "It's up to you."

After Yang Haiyan's hair was combed, Aunt Yu came in with rice dumplings made from fermented rice. The aroma of fermented rice made Yang Haiyan's stomach rumble.

Aunt Lian sat aside: "Madam, when you returned to your hometown, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Han came to see you. Mrs. Lu said that there will be a market in the county in early April. After the end of the month, there will be a market in our town. The market in the city will start first, and there will be no excitement in the county town.”

Yang Haiyan was curious: "A market?"

Aunt Lian said: "I have heard that the so-called market means that traveling merchants from all tribes and countries come to Yongzhou to do business. It only happens once a year, and it is held in early April every year. Because some tourists The merchants will come earlier, so the market will start in our town at the end of March.”

Yang Haiyan understood it as soon as she heard it. After understanding it, she remembered something. April is the day when all things wake up. Spring plowing is not at this time. If many traveling merchants come over from the end of the month, she will take the opportunity to bring out many fruit tree seeds and vegetable seeds that are not available here. Then she will say that she bought them from traveling merchants at the market. . Thinking of this, Yang Haiyan felt that her sense of taste was awakening. There are really few types of vegetables in this world.

Aunt Lian is a very observant person. When she saw that Yang Haiyan was in a good mood, she asked interestingly: "Have you thought of anything happy, Madam?"

Yang Haiyan said with a smile: "I have never seen a market. Even if there is a market in Beijing, we can't go out because we are afraid that the young lady will be bumped into. I didn't expect that marrying at the border would be a disaster. Let’s take a look. 껩‌I can’t wait to tell you what fun and delicious things the merchants have to offer.”

Aunt Lian said: "It's already the twenty-fifth day of the month. In just two days, the market will start. You can wait a few more days and you'll see us."

Yang Haiyan said: "That's right. By the way, I came back from my hometown this time and brought some food, including dried bamboo shoots, fungus, mushrooms, and dried vegetables. I went to Aunt Fan to prepare two portions for Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Han will send it. Also, let Uncle Hong come over in the afternoon."

Aunt Lian stood up and said, "Hey, I'll go talk to you now."

After Yang Haiyan finished eating the rice dumplings, she got up and went for a walk. When I walked to the yard, I saw Qin Siya and Qin Shoucheng sitting and eating snacks. Seeing her coming out, Qin Siya ran over: "Sister-in-law."

Qin Shoucheng got up and said, "Sister-in-law."

Yang Haiyan watched them put on new clothes and saw Qin Siya's hair 껩놆 combed. They bought these clothes in other counties or towns on their way here. As for the hair: "The hair you combed on the fourth day is really nice. Who combed it for you?"

Qin Siya touched her hair and said happily: "Aunt Lian combed it. Aunt Lian is so amazing. I will learn how to comb my hair and make it look good."

Yang Haiyan said: "Aunt Lian is really powerful. My sister-in-law's hair was combed by Aunt Lian. If you want to learn, you can ask Aunt Lian to teach you." After saying that, she looked at Qin Shoucheng and said, "Shoucheng, Rigang ‌Come, have a good rest and let your elder brother take you to report to the private school tomorrow.”

Qin Shoucheng: "Thank you, sister-in-law. Just... Am I too old?" Although he has already been enlightened, he only studied for one year. If he goes to a private school, he should start over, right? He was a little embarrassed.

Yang Haiyan knew that children 껩놆 had high self-esteem. Naturally, a twelve-year-old boy would feel awkward sitting with a six- or seven-year-old boy. ‌놆: "Shou Cheng, do you know there is no end to learning?"

There is no end to learning. This is a very simple truth. Even those who have read a few books understand its meaning. Qin Shoucheng said: "I understand. There is no end to learning. There is no end to your studies. You should keep working hard."

Yang Haiyan said: "Yes, since there is no end to your studies, it doesn't mean that no matter what age you are, you still have to study. Do you think your studies will be saturated? You have to study when you are six or seven years old. , You have to learn when you are twelve years old, and you still have to learn when you are twenty years old like your elder brother."

Qin Shoucheng said: "Sister-in-law, I understand, live and learn. Learning has nothing to do with age."

Yang Haiyan glanced at him with admiration: "Shou Cheng is so smart. I think last year, when your eldest brother and I first got married, he didn't know as many words as Shoucheng does now, but he said he wanted to Study with me and let me teach him. So, he is not embarrassed as a man, but you will be even more embarrassed if you are a little man. You know, it is good to be motivated. "

Qin Shoucheng blushed a little when he was praised. He had never been praised since he was a child. After all, most parents rarely praise their children. "Well, I understand, sister-in-law."

Yang Haiyan sat down with them and saw the biscuits and cakes on the table, thinking that Aunt Fan had prepared them.

Aunt Fan sorted out the dried bamboo shoots Yang Haiyan mentioned and came over: "Madam, according to your instructions, I have prepared one for Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Han. Take a look."

Yang Haiyan took a look and saw that the portion was moderate, about the size of two meals: "You can give it to me. Go buy some ribs. The ribs and grilled bamboo shoots are very delicious."

Aunt Fan: "놆."

After Aunt Fan left, Yang Haiyan told Qin Siya about her name. Because Siya had the same pinyin as Siya and only had the same tone, Qin Siya had been introducing her to Yang Haiyan. , actually 놆四丫. Only then did she understand when she heard Yang Haiyan give her a name and explain the meaning.

Having a serious name is very different. The young Qin Siya knew the importance of names, so now, after having a serious name, she pestered Qin Shoucheng to teach her.

Qin Shoucheng had no choice but to draw Qin Siya's name on the ground with a branch.

At noon, of course, we had pork ribs and grilled bamboo shoots. Qin Fang and the private guards were there, and Yang Haiyan took Qin Siya and Qin Shoucheng to eat together.

lower courtyard

There are two rows in the lower courtyard. Each row has five sets of small courtyards, which are for the five private guards, Uncle Hong, and Aunt Fan's house. There are also three sets of small courtyards that are empty.

At noon, when she saw that she hadn't come to deliver the meal yet, Meng Ping's daughter-in-law stopped and looked at the door, muttering: "Why haven't you come yet? The food has been delivered a few days ago at this time."

Meng Ping's sister, Meng An, is a very quiet and introverted girl. Seeing her sister-in-law talking non-stop, she thought for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, Aunt Fan, who was in charge of the kitchen at the front, said that the food given to us by the house is My brother is not here today, so I went hunting with him, so why don’t we have food coming from the kitchen at noon?”

Meng Ping's wife was stunned, she had not thought of this at all: "This...is this possible?" After thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was completely possible. "Then I'll ask?"

Meng An said: "Sister-in-law, please don't go. Let's make some food to fill our stomachs first. We don't have this here. Of course there will be some nearby. It would be better if you ask."

Meng Ping's wife heard this: "Then let's make some porridge and make do. Meng An, you cook the porridge, and I'll go next door to take a look."

Meng An: "Hey." In fact, Meng An was quite embarrassed and felt that he had caused trouble to his elder brother and sister-in-law. When something like this happened to her, she was always criticized when she stayed in her hometown. Her eldest brother and sister-in-law were kind-hearted and willing to bring her over. There were no fields here, and the food was her own. In this way, she would be given to her. Big brothers and sisters add to the burden. For this reason, she was very embarrassed.

During this time, Meng An went out and heard that she wanted to find some work here. She thought of some jobs, but she still hadn't made up her mind. She wanted to wait for the wife to come, but she couldn't say no. He has a plan for them.

When Meng Ping's wife went out, she went to Huang Huzi's house next door. They arrived early, and then went to Huang Huzi's house, so these two families became familiar with each other. "Is the Huang family girl here?" As soon as Meng Ping's wife walked into the yard, she could smell some food.

Huang Huzi's wife wanted to get up and go out, but Meng Ping's wife had already come in and saw her eating: "Sister Huang, are you eating?" She saw a plate of pickles and a bowl of porridge on the dining table.

Huang Huzi's wife said, "I'm eating right now. What's wrong with me, sister-in-law?" She didn't ask Meng Ping's wife if she had eaten it. What if she asked and she said she hadn't? She had no intention of eating, so naturally she wouldn't ask.

Meng Ping's daughter-in-law looked at her, but there was no sign of her, so she asked softly: "Sister Huang, has the food been delivered to the kitchen today?"
