******************************************
After hearing Lian Jizu's words that he would go to Jinyang County, Lian Shuxin said.
"When we were about to come, the old lady told me to go and see my aunt." Jiang said with a smile.
"That night, would you live with my sister Huaer?" Lian Man'er asked.
"Yes, live in the Song family." Lian Jizu nodded.
Now I am leaving from Sanshiliyingzi, and I can live in the Song family at night. Lian Man'er feels that Lian Jizu changed his itinerary because he couldn't get used to living in Sanshiliyingzi, "I woke up from the cold in the middle of the night yesterday."
"There are many houses in my aunt's house. We go there and it's convenient to live there." Jiang said, "If we want to live there, it will cause too much trouble for my aunt's house."
The status of the aunts who have married out often shows their mother's status at home. Therefore, every time Jizu and Jiang came, they would get Jinyang County. Even Lan'er had to go, and even Hua'er could not fall.
When you go to see Lian Lan'er, you must have a gift. When you go to Lian Hua'er, you probably don't have to fight Qiu Feng now.
Lian Man'er thought.
Lian Jizu and Jiang's luggage were still in the old house and wanted to go back to get it. Lian Shouxin sent the Chang's worker Lao Zhang to the town to help Lian Jizu and the others call a car.
Lian Jizu and Jiang walked to the gate and then said goodbye to Lian Shouxin. Zhang's family had a goodbye, and Lian Shouli, Zhao and Lian Ye'er accompanied him to the old house.
Lian Man'er and his family stood at the gate and did not go back to the house immediately.
Seeing Lian Jizu and his party reaching the official road, Lian Man'er was about to turn around and go back to the house when he saw two men coming out of the village entrance, walking quickly to Lian Jizu, bent down to salute Lian Jizu, and then followed Lian Jizu to the village.
"...It's the two brothers of the Old Wu family." Lian Shouxin said, "Jizu is coming back, and he is about to farm, so he didn't think about going to the ground to take a look."
As the family spoke, they went back to the house. When Lao Zhang came back, they said that Lian Jizu and Jiang had already taken the car and left, so they put it aside.
The next day, when he saw Lian Ye'er, Lian Man'er remembered what happened yesterday and asked Lian Ye'er.
"Yesterday, the two brothers of the Lao Wu family went to find Brother Jizu, what did they say?" Lian Man'er asked.
"It's just a flatterer from Jizu Ge. It's so sweet." Lian Ye'er said, "and they said that their family killed chickens and wanted to invite Jizu Ge over to dinner."
Lian Man'er said oh, the old Wu brothers did this. He also had some intention of treating the landlord's boss.
"The night before, the day when Jizu and his friends arrived, they all came back." Lian Ye'er said again, "That day, I said I would invite Jizu to dinner. Jizu didn't agree."
"Are you scared?" Lian Man'er smiled because last time Lian Jizu summoned a serviceman. Perhaps, there was also the idea of seeing Lian Jizu becoming more developed. He should flatter more and take advantage of it.
"They kowtowed to Jizu Brother, and Jizu Brother didn't go to their house no matter what he said. Later, they said that there was less rain this spring, and that my mother was sick, my wife was sick, and she owed debts. She said that the seed money was gone. She said it was very pitiful, so she borrowed money from Jizu Brother."
It’s true that you have to benefit from it. And it’s not about taking a long time, but about the kind that you can cash out immediately.
"Did Brother Jiezu lend them?" Lian Man'er asked.
"Brother Jizu couldn't stand being pestered by them, so I threw them a few dollars. I don't know how much." Even Ye'er said, "My sister-in-law is very unhappy. She got into the car first and didn't even talk to Brother Jizu."
When Lian Man'er went home, she told Lian Shouxin and Zhang about this matter.
"The child Jizu is soft-hearted." Lian Shouxin said.
"That family can't get rid of it if they get involved. I don't know why the old man cares about them so much." Zhang said. "We haven't given them a good face. We all know that we have a very irritating relationship with the upper room. Otherwise, we have to get involved."
"It's not a problem for people to be poor. Who has never been poor? I really don't like their human nature." After thinking about it, Zhang said again, "When the old man can give them benefits, they will come to recognize their relatives. When the old man lives poor, they will not come to the house for several years. So, the life of the house has been falling in love with, and they are like this again."
Speaking of Mr. Lian, several people couldn't help but sigh again.
After the Qingming Festival, the farmers took off their cotton coats and put on pinch clothes.
Lian Man'er's fish pond and lotus pond were already dug, and water was drawn from the river. Lian Man'er asked Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing and his son to help her purchase fish fry. On that day, Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing and his son came with people to deliver the goods.
The fish fry comes from Shajintang and is transported by several large carriages. Large wooden barrels are fixed with ropes on the carriage. Water is placed in the large wooden barrels, and the fish fry is bought inside. These carriages set off from Shajintang before dawn. At noon, they arrived in Sanshiliyingzi.
Lian Man'er went to the fish pond and watched the long-term workers put fish fry into the fish pond.
The fry I bought this time included 800 carp fry, 400 crucian carp fry, 400 silver carp fry, 400 silver carp fry, 400 flower silver carp fry, 500 grass carp fry, and 200 mandarin fish fry.
There were a total of 2,700 fish fryes, and there were slight losses on the way. Fortunately, the seller had estimated that he had already arrived in advance and added some fractions to enter, so the final number was only a lot.
Watching the small fish fry swimming happily into the fish pond, the tiny scales shining under the sun. Even Man'er's heart seemed to be slapped by the tail of the fish, and she seemed to see that the small fish at the tail had grown up, and the bare scales were shining silver.
Seeing that after putting the fry, Lian Shouxin asked everyone to go to the front hall to settle the debt.
The price of 2,700 fish fry is 7,200 cents in silver. This is because I bought a lot and I gave the original price a discount. In addition, the middle-aged people paid for Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing and his son, as well as the cart for the cart. In the end, Lian Man'er paid a total of 7,800 cents.
The next day, Lao Huang and his men also returned from the south. He did not let down the instructions of Lian Man'er's family and brought back a large cart of lotus root seeds, as well as chicken head rice seeds and water chestnut seeds.
On the day of planting lotus roots, many people gathered next to the lotus pond at Lian Man'er's house.
Mr. Lu also came, and was very interested. He took off his shoes, rolled up his trousers, and went down to the pond to plant lotus roots. He is from the south, and according to him, he also planted lotus roots with people when he was a child.
Lian Man'er was doubtful about this, but Mr. Lu said that, and she kindly did not expose it. Even if Mr. Lu had planted lotus roots, it must be to see lotus flowers. She could understand Mr. Lu's mood when he saw lotus roots.
Finally, I can eat fresh lotus seeds and fresh lotus seeds. In summer, you can see the moonlight in the lotus pond and smell the fragrance of lotus flowers.
Even Man'er was very happy. The lotus root is full of treasures. The roots are lotus roots, which can be eaten as vegetables and grind them into powder. When flowers bloom, they can beautify the environment and can also be used as tea. Lotus seeds are even more delicious, and lotus leaves can also be used as medicine.
This time, Lao Huang went to the south to do a job of purchasing lake stones. In the garden on the mountain, he needed lake stones to decorate it. Lao Huang brought two pieces to Lian Man'er's house.
"... I will get two for you, and I will put them in the garden, and we will follow the vassal... That elegant thing, as I see, it is really not good-looking. But this wealthy family pays attention to this. Some people have said that the more you look at this stone, the more you look at it, the more you taste... what smell, the fishy smell... hahaha."
I was happy to eat wine at Lian Man'er's house, and Lao Huang didn't care about his words.
"Mr. Lu, I'm a rough man, I just say whatever I think. Don't laugh at me." It's so satisfying. Lao Huang is still a scene man, and he knows that there is a gentleman sitting on the table. "I just don't understand this, and I'm quite interested in that stone. Otherwise, I can't bring this to the four brothers' house."
Lao Huang didn't understand Hushi. When he went to the south, he just helped to connect with people. As for choosing Hushi, he was responsible for those who knew what he knew. Moreover, even if he didn't understand, no one dared to deceive him. He was the comprador of the temple garden for the queen. If he deceived him, wouldn't that be bullying the emperor's family and the queen Chen's parents' family? Who dared to do that?
Mr. Lu was also here and maintained a tolerant attitude towards Lao Huang's argument.
Mr. Lu likes all elegant things, including Hushi, of course.
Two lake stones were said to be two, and placed there was like two small rockery. Knowing Mr. Lu’s preferences, even Man'er simply left the matter of how to arrange the lake stones to Mr. Lu to decide.
After studying the blueprint of the Lian family's manor, Mr. Lu made a decision.
A piece of lake stone was placed in a small pond in the front yard. Lian Man'er asked Lao Huang to find a skilled craftsman on the mountain, and made a small mechanism to divert water to the lake stone, forming a rockery waterfall. Lotus was planted in the small pond, and a few koi were raised inside.
"Don't say, after cleaning up like this, the atmosphere of the entire yard will be different." Old Huang exclaimed when he saw it.
Another lake stone is placed in the backyard. When the yard is covered with green shade, the lake stone will become a scene again. Lian Man'er also plans to plant some vines in the yard, such as roses, to embellish them.
Lian Man'er's house has few houses and empty yards, which attract more living water and plant flowers and trees. There is no need to open another garden, because they live in the garden. This is also the plan for the construction of the house in this way.
Lian Man'er likes this kind of living environment.
Lake stones are just an embellishment of their busy spring season, and the preparations for spring plowing are in full swing.
It is still the middle-aged man of Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing, and Lian Man'er's family hired three other long-term workers, Dali, Xiao Ding and Damen. This was also a ten-year contract signed, including food, accommodation, clothes, and two more hangers of money a year. This is the best among the long-term workers' treatment in the surrounding villages and towns.
With the help of long-term workers, Lian Shuixun began to cultivate sweet potato seedlings.
