"This village is called Zhengjiazhuang. It is in a mountain valley and is more than ten miles away from the nearest village. It is very quiet and secluded. If you can get them, let Ye Shan and Dongmei deliver the message. You You are too young now and it is not easy to convince others. I will take you for a walk when I have the opportunity in the future. Also, the jade pendant I gave you earlier is a token to prove your identity." Lord Marquis instructed.
Jiayin nodded quickly, knowing clearly in her heart.
Let me ask a three or four year old child, no matter how smart he is, who can easily develop a heart of obedience?
Instead, maintain a sense of mystery and slowly start with small things. Over time, it will become more convincing.
Especially for these craftsmen, starting from the technical point of view can help them focus more.
As for skills, with the small courtyard of space and the support of half a room of books, it is not a problem at all.
Of course, this is all in the future. For the time being, she still wants to be a child and enjoy her happy childhood!
Some things can be redone or repaired, but time will not go back. The childhood she finally regained will not happen a third time!
"Father, I'm sleepy and want to sleep!" Jiayin yawned and hugged his adoptive father's neck. "I also want to listen to my adoptive father telling stories about killing barbarians!"
Mr. Hou couldn't help but laugh and nodded her head. Small nose.
No matter how smart the baby is, he is still a baby, and the most important thing is always eating, drinking, playing and sleeping...
The next morning, after breakfast, the Li family yard was busy.
For no other reason, Li Laosan's family, Jiaren and Brother Li are going back to Luo'an.
The classes at the college can't be delayed too much. Taking two days off is already an extra step for my husband to take care of.
In addition, the food shop has been open for such a long time, and students especially like it. They come here almost twice a day to eat. If it is closed for too long, the students will be disappointed.
Zhao Yuru hugged her niece and talked about it with her mother-in-law with a smile, "They are all children who are studying outside. Life is not easy when their family members are not around. We take more care of them on weekdays, which makes us happy."
"Yes, that's how it should be . , Our family is not short of money to live now, you can earn as much or as little as you want. Even in the business of selling food, you have to be worthy of your own conscience, and if you can take care of these children, it would be even better."
The old lady patted her. The most honest and diligent daughter-in-law said, "You too, don't be reluctant to eat, drink and wear clothes on weekdays. No matter whether you are studying or getting married, you have a family. Don't make yourself suffer too much just to save money."
Zhao Yuru blushed. She also noticed this when she came back this time. , she and the third child were the most simply dressed at home and outside the house, and they were still wearing half-old clothes.
Uninformed outsiders might think that their family is being treated harshly by my mother and brothers!
She quickly responded: "Mom, I will make more sets of good clothes when I get back, and put on hairpins and bracelets."
"That's right!" The old lady smiled happily, pointed at the busy family and said: " Jia Huan is used to living in Luo'an. You see, how happy he was when he heard that he was going back!"
Zhao Yuru looked a little proud and said with a smile: "The dishes cooked by Jia Huan are all liked by the students, and occasionally Jia Ren When he is busy, or when a gentleman from the college orders food, he will go to the academy for a walk. Maybe he goes to and from the academy more, and I see that his temperament has become more lively. Recently, he has been reciting poems and writing with Brother Li. "
"Okay, those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. I made the right decision when I went to Luo'an to open a shop!"
"Yes, Jia Huan is not a material for reading, but it is always good to learn a few more words."
"Jia Xi " He's been studying well recently, don't worry about it, this guy also takes good care of Brother Cat and Jia'an, and he acts like an older brother." The
mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked a lot, and they were both reluctant to separate, but they still had to leave early for their journey. , after all, it is still more than forty miles away from Deluan.
The family sent the carriage away, and until the carriage disappeared, the old lady was still looking around, and finally sighed.
When life was poor, children and grandchildren were still around. Now that life is better, it is not easy to make ends meet.
She turned to take her granddaughter back, and found that the strands of hair her granddaughter was playing with were very delicate, so she asked, "Who braided this for Fu Niu? The craftsmanship is so good!"
Jiayin rolled her eyes, smiled and refused to say anything, and struggled to the ground, "Grandma, I'm going to play with my aunt!"
After that, she ran to the Cui family yard.
The old lady smiled helplessly, "This child is too old to be controlled anymore. The thresholds of several yards will be flattened by her."
Tao Hongying was going to the valley. After hearing this, she comforted her mother-in-law, "Mom, Fu Niu is smart. Don't worry about it. Let her play by herself. You can take a break when you need to."
"I understand. Go and do your work. I have nothing to do. I'll go to the vegetable garden to pick some vegetables and dry them in the sun.
" The wife waved her hand and sent her daughter-in-law to get busy.
The weather is very good today. The fruit orchards on the mountains are not open, and the melon orchards are picked clean. There is nothing to be busy with except the valley.
Therefore, it was rare for people in the village to have leisure time. After talking to the village chief, many people went into the city together.
Marquis and Li Laosi quietly took people to Yunhe Town, intending to see how the corn and potatoes were growing.
Seeing that the autumn harvest was about to begin, he made sure he knew it well enough to report it to the emperor.
Li Yong tried his best to compensate his pregnant wife, but instead of following her, he borrowed the Li family's carriage and took Huiniang to the city to buy things.
In the past few months, after being baptized by the flames of war, he was no longer the frail young master of the Yan family. Not only was he much taller and tanned, he also walked and spoke with the toughness of a soldier.
Even if an acquaintance sees him, they will definitely not recognize him if they don't identify him carefully!
Huiniang wore a curtain hat. Due to her pregnancy and supplements, her figure was no longer as graceful as before, and she was even a bit bulky.
When this couple walks together, they seem to be a perfect match, just like an ordinary civilian couple, and they are not afraid of revealing their secrets.
On weekdays, the Li family took great care of Madam Hui, not only giving them food every now and then, but also a lot of cotton suitable for making clothes for their children, needlework, and various other supplies.
In the past few months, Huiniang has not been idle. The children's bedding, hats, clothes, shoes and socks have been prepared for a long time.
Li Yong, a father, wanted to do something for his child but had nowhere to start. He finally decided to buy two pairs of bracelets and two longevity locks for his child.
Huiniang is already very happy to have her husband by her side, not to mention going shopping together and collecting things for the children, which is really sweet.
The young couple chose a small silver building and went in. They picked out the items and spent more than thirty taels of silver.
Li Yong suggested, "Yesterday, for Fu Niu's birthday, you gave her a dress, but I haven't given her anything yet. This girl is a little money-lover, wait until I pick out a gadget for her."
Of course Huiniang said yes, Li Yong He pointed to a string of gold fruit beads and asked the shopkeeper to take it out and have a look.
This kind of bead string is very popular in the city recently.
Most of them are hollow fruits of various colors made of gold and silver, strung together in a bunch, with colorful tassels underneath, hanging on the little girl's waist, which is festive and beautiful.
Even though the price is a bit high, it is made of gold and silver after all, and the workmanship is exquisite.
Madam Hui was distressed that it was not easy for her husband to earn military pay, so she said, "Our children are still young, so why not take away the gold bracelets and leave only two longevity locks?"
