Farmer’s Little Girl

  Chapter 3319 Returning to the Hometown IV

   "Yes, but today, Grandpa Jin treats dinner, so if we don’t work for a while, we can come out and play."

  Today the whole village is as festive and lively as the New Year, not only killing chickens and ducks, but also killing pigs and sheep.

  At this time, the sun was in the middle of the sky, and the people who worked in the ground had come back. Knowing that Zhou's family was going to dinner in the evening, it was lively there, so many people came to help after washing their faces. .

   Zhouman, they came back with the rest of the fruit, and finally only a few left in their hands.

   "This is my house," Zhou Man took Mingda's hand, led them in, walked around to the north courtyard, pointed to a door and said, "It was my room before, now..."

   "It's yours now," Feng passed by and interrupted, "You still have a lot of books and things in it. We don't know if we can move it, so we only clean it on weekdays and nothing is moved."

She glanced at the princess, couldn't help but smiled, leaning closer to Zhou Man and whispered: "There are so many noisy people outside, you can take the princess to sit in your room, and you will be on the killing pig dish in a while. You are here. Eat in the yard?"

   Zhou Man nodded in response, and said to the subordinates of the Bai family: "Go back and tell the old lady that we also ate here at noon."

"Yes."

   Zhou Man happily pulled them into his room.

  The room has not been inhabited for a long time. Fortunately, the wind passed for a long time before, and it is estimated that it has been smoked, so there is only a slight dampness.

  Bai Shan asked his servants to go home and get an incense burner to burn incense, and the group sat down in the outer room.

  There are some books on the bookshelf next to the screen, more of which are made of bamboo utensils. There is a shallow lotus-like basket that is very beautiful, and it contains some small things.

   Yin or looked at it curiously, "I heard you said that your second brother's bamboo weaving craftsmanship is good, is this he weaving for you?"

   Zhou Man nodded, "Yes, all the bamboo woven things in this room are made by my second brother."

  Bai Shan took a ball from the top of the bookshelf and handed it to him, “No, this is also done by Brother Tuesday.”

  "Are you guys still playing kicks?" Yin Or took a look, raised an eyebrow, and looked at the three people suspiciously.

   Bai Erlang said: "When we were young, we were the best in the village, and it was us who played the best."

  Bai Shan nodded, "Just can't compare with the real people."

   Mingda heard it and couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “No wonder you never play in the capital.”

   "Princess, Lord Ma," the subordinate of the Bai family came to find him, and replied from outside the door: "The magistrate of Luojiang County has sent a greeting card, and I want to come and greet the princess."

  The voice fell, Jiulan also replied: "Lord Lang, lady, we have also received a greeting from the mansion."

  A few people in the room glanced at each other, and Bai Shan thought for a while and said, "Please come tomorrow, the county magistrate."

"Yes."

   Baijiro: "He is well informed. We only got home yesterday afternoon."

  Bai Shan: "Luojiang County is not big, and there are so many of us. It is impossible for him not to know."

  He paused and said, "Call Shang Lizheng and the village chief, and see you together at that time."

   Suddenly there was a lively outside, not only loud talking, but also crackling firecrackers. Zhou Man got up as soon as he heard it, "It must be my uncle and them here. You sit and play by yourself, I will go to see them."

  Bai Shan raised up his son and asked, "Should you take a child?"

   "No need," Zhou Man said: "There are too many people and noisy. It is better for the children to get together a little less. I will come when I see you, and you will take them."

  Uncle Qian and the others set off three firecrackers and were greeted in joy.

   Several in-laws of Zhou’s family also invited Qian’s home today, and for the rest, we have to wait until tomorrow to let the son take his daughter-in-law back to her family’s home.

As soon as Aunt Qian arrived, she took Xiao Qian to look at her. Seeing that she was more energetic than when she left a few years ago, and that she is not old enough, she knows that she is doing well, and the smile on her face is even greater, "Where are your two nephews?" "

  Five years ago, two of the Qian family’s children joined the caravan of Chulang and started the job of returning home once a year.

  Xiao Qian said: "They are in Qingzhou. The fourth child said that he wanted them to look at the shops and businesses over there, but he didn't take them when he came back this time."

  Aunt Qian had heard them say several times, but still didn’t know where Qingzhou was, only that she was close to the sea, "How are they doing?"

   "Very good, Liwei is there too, with care," Xiao Qian said: "And the fourth child is now going back and forth through Qingzhou."

   "How about Lizhong and Lixue, how old are they now?"

Little Qian said: "Lixue is outside as a county magistrate, and I can't come back, but this time Lizhong and his wife came back. The father said that he would open an ancestral hall and remember his daughter-in-law, as well as the children. In the past few years, we I haven't come back, and the children have not had time to play music."

  "Lizhong is back. The fourth brother didn't say, who is his wife?" Aunt Qian turned her head excitedly and asked in a low voice, "His wife, like Man Bao, is also an official?"

"Yes, now the official rank is the same as that of Lizhong, and I can still be promoted in the future. It must be more promising than Lizhong." Xiao Qianshi looked out and pointed to a young woman who came back with a basket of vegetables and said: "That's right. Her maiden name is Liu, and her name is Sanniang."

   After speaking, she went out of the kitchen and said loudly: "Sanniang, come and see your grandmother."

  Liu Sanniang immediately came forward to see her, and was pulled by Aunt Qian, “It’s so good, it looks really good, and our family is very blessed.”

   Liu Sanniang lowered her head and smiled embarrassedly.

   Zhou Man walked quickly from the yard next door, and when he saw her, he shouted: "Auntie!"

Aunt Qian was also very surprised when she saw Zhou Man. She immediately let go of Liu Sanniang, and went to Zhou Man's hand, "Man Bao has grown up so big? Oh, it's so good-looking, it's just a bit thinner. Didn't she eat well? The craftsmanship of your cook is not to your liking?"

   "I have grown longer, and I am not thin." Zhou Man firmly refused to admit that he had lost weight. After looking around, he asked, "Where are my uncles?"

"I just walked in the door and was pulled out. It was said that there were too many people in the yard to sit down, which delayed work in the kitchen," Aunt Qian looked out and said, "Either in the open space at the door or to the entrance of your village. Under the banyan tree, your father is also outside."

  Lao Zhoutou is indeed outside. The people around him three times now are all old men and women about his age.

   Relying on their seniority and age, they occupied the best open space in the village-under the banyan tree.

  The children who liked to run around the tree were all kicked away by them. A group of old men and women sat under the tree and talked in the shade, mainly because they asked, said Mr. Zhou.

   "Then you have met the emperor master?"

"See you, I have seen it, I see you every year." Every year the emperor will board the towers of the imperial city and enjoy the people. You can see it every year.
