The Sweet Little Fulang

After collecting a full eight hundred pennies, Lu Gu was so happy that he didn't know what to say, his eyes crooked with laughter, he was a little shy, but he couldn't stop himself from looking at Shen Xuanqing.

Shen Xuanqing was also laughing, and the two just sat opposite each other for a while.

"I, I'm going to get the twine." Lu Gu lowered his head embarrassedly. Seeing so many copper coins on the table, he thought that he should string up the twine, otherwise it would be too scattered, so he got up and went to look for the twine.

Shen Xuanqing just looked at Lu Gu just now, and now he starts to count the money.

There were five pieces of silver and more than three hundred copper plates in the purse, as well as twenty-eight taels of untouched dwarf deer, and ten taels of silver that had been saved earlier, which was originally twenty taels, and took ten taels for Luo Biao. The two go to mark people, and he doesn't need to worry about Lu Wen and Li Mingshan.

He spent more than twenty or two today, and he only had six coins and a dozen copper coins left on his body. These scattered coins were spent while earning, which was enough for his usual expenses.

Compared to thirty-eight taels of silver, these eleven pieces of silver do not look like much, but to them countrymen, how could it be called a large sum of money.

Lu Gu brought a ball of twine over. His 800 wen was not enough money, so he made 100 strings, leaving a piece of string at the head and tail. When he had enough 100 strings, he would tie it up and tie a knot.

What he earns is small money, not as good as Shen Xuanqing, but in the village, no one's husband can have a few hundred pennies in his hands, not to mention that he still has 19 pennies, and others may not believe it when he says it.

The reason why Lu Gu was able to save it was because Shen Xuanqing treated him well and didn't take his money, and he wouldn't let him pay for shopping outside.

Shen Xuanqing also helped him string the money. The 800 coins were stringed together. Every small plate of money was heavy. The purse was open, and there was a piece of silver in it. His 19 coins were also there. Lu Gu looked at it more and more. The more happy, the reluctance to put the copper coins into the purse.

Shen Xuanqing didn't count the copper plates of his own just now, so he just poured it out of the big money bag, and also took a string of twine. In the next two days, he will go to Fucheng to sell fox skins.

"I'll help you." Lu Gu tightened the mouth of the big money bag, and when he saw that he was making money, he pulled a piece of twine to help.

There are three hundred and forty-six coins in total, three small plates are strung with twine, and twenty-six coins are put into the purse by Shen Xuanqing. The city is far away, so you must eat there. If you buy a few biscuits to fill your stomach, there are two Sixteen characters do not need to unravel the string of money.

He pushed the remaining 20 coins to Lu Gu and said with a smile: "You are full of money, keep it, you will have enough for 10 coins later, if you want to exchange for money, you can go to the town and exchange it, these 20 coins are for you. Take it, just in case you want to buy something."

Lu Gu was very embarrassed, smiled shyly, and carefully put the twenty pennies into a small purse.

In fact, at most, he just buys some needles, threads and fabrics. Usually, whether he is at home or going up the mountain, he rarely carries any money on his body, but these 20 coins are different. Shen Xuanqing gave it to him, too. Things, you are not afraid of being embarrassed if you can't pay for it.

After hiding the two big money bags at the bottom of the box, the thin quilt and clothes could not be seen from the top, and then locking the box, Lu Gu was completely relieved.

Early in the morning the next day, Shen Xuanqing took the bamboo basket and walked out after eating breakfast. Before going to Fucheng, he had to go to the old hunter to ask the price of the fox fur in Fucheng, and there were people who could catch up, so today. Not necessarily coming back late.

Lu Gu escorted him out, and Da Hui and the dog cub who were not on the leash also followed, Da Hui subconsciously wanted to follow.

"Don't follow, go to the house." Shen Xuanqing said to it, Lu Gu also called it from behind, and Da Hui stopped.

After Shen Xuanqing left, Lu Gu returned to the yard.

Shen Yan touched the duck eggs laid at night from the backyard and asked, "Brother Guzi, brother Erqing is gone?"

"Let's go." Lu Gu replied. Seeing the duck eggs, he couldn't help but think of the chickens and ducks he was still on the mountain, so he loved Wu Jiwu and asked her with concern, "Have the chicken grass been chopped?"

"No, Brother Daqing is cleaning up in the backyard. I'll put the eggs away and chop them." Shen Yan said as she walked towards the kitchen.

When going down the mountain, there is a lot of grass and bran for the chickens and ducks, enough for them to eat for a few days. Lu Gu is used to staying on the mountain. Every time Shen Xuanqing goes out hunting, he is busy by himself, and he can't rest now. , seeing that the fine wood was running out, he took a bench and sat in the courtyard to chop fine wood.

Sitting down and chopping firewood would have to spread the legs apart, freeing up the space in front of him, the legs and feet were spread out on both sides, and the puppy came over and lay down next to his left leg.

Wei Lanxiang came out with a sewing basket. Seeing how diligent he was, she couldn't hide the smile on her face. She sat under the eaves while picking up the soles of her shoes while talking to Lu Gu. After a while, the family had a lot of food for winter, autumn vegetables and They have marinated some of the wort. They don’t grow much of the wort this year, just the two rows in the vegetable field in the front yard. After a while, they go to other places to buy some and stock up, which is enough to eat in winter.

When talking about the soles of Na's shoes, Wei Lanxiang kept talking about her son, saying that Shen Xuanqing had to pay for shoes since he was a child. If he runs around, that makes a person disgusted with dogs, and a little girl of the same age, Xiao Shuanger, ignores him, and dislikes him for being too wild.

The new shoes she just put on became dirty within two days, and now Wei Lanxiang can't figure out how Shen Xuanqing walked at that time, the new shoes were broken in two days, even Shen Yaoqing didn't bother so much. , She was angry and found it funny, and pinched Shen Xuanqing's ears. Not only that, but Shen Xuanqing's strength was even stronger. When she was nine or ten, she couldn't hold her back.

"At that time, Da Chen was also a bastard. I saw Erqing go out to play all day long, either filling the weasel hole or poking fish and poking the honeycomb. When he was playing, he couldn't care about anything. If he was crazy, I wouldn't let Erqing go. , he ran out in a hurry, and I let him run without holding on."

After hitting Shen's house, the Shen Xuanqing that Lu Gu saw was calm. He never thought that he was so different when he was a child, and he forgot to chop wood when he heard it.

"That time when the two of them went to play in the quagmire of Heqian Village, they came back covered in mud and dirt, their faces and heads were covered in mud, their hair was stuck with mud, and they couldn't be washed cleanly, so I was so angry that I beat him with a rolling pin. Dayton, I also dragged Er Qing to Da Chen's house to find Da Chen Niang, you don't know, Da Chen was beaten up and down that day, and after a lesson, he was honest for the next six months."

Wei Lanxiang couldn't help laughing when she talked about the beatings of Shen Xuanqing and Da Chen, which shows how unbearable the two **** were back then.

Lu Gu also raised his eyebrows and smiled softly. He still wanted to hear it, but Shen Yan chased the ducks out of the backyard after cutting the chicken grass and took them to swim outside. The ducks quacked and the dogs stood up and barked at them. interrupted.

At this time, Ji Qiuyue also took a sewing basket and sat next to Wei Lanxiang, intending to mend Shen Yaoqing's torn old clothes, but turned away as soon as Wei Lanxiang was distracted, and said something else to Ji Qiuyue.

Lu Gu started chopping firewood again. He was still thinking about Wei Lanxiang's words, and there was a slight smile on his face when he thought about it.

In the evening, Lu Gu and Ji Qiuyue wandered in the paddy fields and dry land. When he came back, he kept looking around on the road to the town. The puppy followed them back and forth. People in the village said that the dog was really strong when they saw it.

The sun was about to sink, but Shen Xuanqing was never seen, thinking that he would not be back tonight.

Ji Qiuyue laughed and joked with him, and said, "Why, you only want to go out for a day and think about Erqing?"

This made Lu Gu extremely embarrassed, and lowered his head to deny in a low voice, "No, no."

Seeing that his face was all red, Ji Qiuyue smiled like a flower, but fortunately she knew that Lu Gu was thin-skinned, so she stopped teasing.

The two passed through the village, and they could meet the people of the village along the way. Ji Qiuyue spoke lightly and neatly, and could talk and laugh with anyone, and then they came home.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Lu Gu saw a young woman talking to Wei Lanxiang, who handed him a bowl of white noodles.

"Go back quickly, and change it tomorrow when you have it." Wei Lanxiang said.

"Aunt Xie Lanxiang," said the young woman gratefully, and turned to leave.

After she turned around, Lu Gu saw the bruises on her face. When she saw it, she was beaten, and she was a little shocked. He had been beaten, so he knew how painful it was.

The woman was familiar with Ji Qiuyue, put a smile on her face and said a few words before leaving.

"Old Zhang's family is really a sinner, and a good wife wants to be beaten." Wei Lanxiang sighed after the people left.

Lu Gu often went up the mountain with Shen Xuanqing and was not that familiar with the village, but he had met that woman twice. She was Zhang Zhengzi's daughter-in-law who was separated by a few houses and was close to their house. Zhang family, he also knows this.

"That's not it." Ji Qiuyue replied, she said this, she felt fortunate in her heart, fortunately her mother found Shen Yaoqing for her back then, Wei Lanxiang is a good mother-in-law, otherwise she would meet the kind of old Zhang's son Daughter-in-law sets the rules, and I'm afraid she will die of anger.

The old Zhang's rules were strict. She ate in the room, and her daughter-in-law brought the food in without saying anything. She had to kneel down to say goodbye to her. .

It is not uncommon to serve my in-laws. There are also people who kneel down and ask for peace, but there are not many people who are as strict as the old Zhang family. Everyone in their peasant household has to work, and there is no free time to pick the wrong place of the daughter-in-law.

No one in the village said that Wei Lanxiang had never suffered this kind of anger from her mother-in-law. Shen Shunfu didn't look like a big rude, but she treated her well and always protected her, so she also treated Ji Qiuyue well. After Lu Gu came, she never beaten or scolded her , not even the rules.

Besides, she has Shen Yan, and when she thinks of her little daughter being rubbed in the future, she feels uncomfortable.

Don't tell the other's daughter-in-law, Ji Qiuyue was hurt by his parents, and even Lu Gu was hurt by his mother when he was a child. How could they treat others harshly when they came to their family, they were raised by their parents, how could they do something so immoral .

Ji Qiuyue was in the kitchen to boil water for the family to wash and wash. She said that there was not much firewood, so Lu Gu went in with the firewood and listened to her talk about the Zhang family by the way.

After getting used to it in the Shen family, Lu Gu seldom thinks about the days when he was beaten before. After hearing this, he felt panic at the same time, but he also felt that he was lucky. He met Wei Lanxiang and the Shen family.
