Wang Shijing was still sitting there, watching Shao Yunan bring a basin of water in, he immediately went to the ground: "There is no hot water, I will burn some, the water is cold."

"It's for you, I don't think you're afraid of the cold." Shao Yunan put the water basin directly next to Wang Shijing. Anyway, the quilt was wrapped, so he wasn't afraid of getting the bed wet. He wetted the cloth and handed it to Wang Shijing, and said, "Don't wear a blindfold when no outsiders are around. The blindfold is not breathable and is not good for your eyes. You are the father of Wang Qing and Nizi, and they have to get used to it. You wiped your eyes and covered them for a long time, and there is secretions from the corners of your eyes."

Wang Shijing squeezed the eye mask in his hand vigorously, then put the eye mask on the table and took the cloth to wipe his eyes. Shao Yunan hurriedly said, "Wipe with a damp towel, don't wring it too dry."

Wang Shijing wiped the corners of his eyes. He also knew that there were a lot of dirty secretions from the corners of his eyes every day. He never thought that Shao Yunan was going to fetch water for him to wipe his eyes. I don't know if the water was from Shao Yunan, but Wang Shijing felt that the water was rubbed into his eyes, and his eyes felt cool, and the burning pain and swelling that had been bothering him since the injury were relieved a lot.

"You wipe it a few more times, and I will continue."

"you say."

Wang Shijing obediently twisted the towel again and wiped his eyes.

"I told Aunt Wang that the money I got from selling the stones is not entirely a lie. I have a few rare stones in my hand, and I wanted to sell them for money, but I hid a few stones at Shao's house rather than hiding them. Money is more convenient. Those stones are peculiar in shape, I bought them directly from 'Die Zhuang Ge'. Rare is the most expensive thing, the shopkeeper of Di Zhuang Pavilion bought three stones from me for 500 taels and bought them back The style of the three stones, they think the style of the three stones can be carved on jade and sold for a big price. I sold it."

Wang Shijing's one eye was full of surprise. Shao Yunan took out the meat stone that fooled Fourth Aunt Wang: "Well, I still have one in my hand, it's very special."

Wang Shijing brought it over and was amazed: "Is this a stone?"

"Yeah. Aunt Wang even took a bite. It's definitely not meat." Shao Yunan laughed.

Wang Shijing frowned: "It's a pity that such a strange stone was sold. I should have given you the money sooner. Why don't you see if you can redeem it? Can you get those jewelry? less money."

Wang Shijing's reaction exceeded Shao Yunan's expectations again, and his expression softened a lot in an instant. This person is actually a very down-to-earth and sincere person.

Shao Yunan said: "The three pieces I sold are not as unique as this one, so I will sell them. This jewelry can't be regarded as an antique. It will be very valuable in the future. If you say I am in charge of the family, then listen to me." Forgive Shao Yunan for unconsciously looking at jewelry from thousands of years ago with the eyes of modern people.

Wang Shijing twisted the cloth for the third time and wiped his eyes. What more he wanted to say, he was interrupted by Shao Yunan: "You have been a soldier for three years, you have a little adventure, it is normal to pick up some rare things, and others will believe it when you say it. I may use you as a cover in the future. I can't tell you now, but I'll tell you all about it in the future. So how do I explain it to outsiders, you just nod your head when someone asks. If I say I picked up the stone, someone will inevitably ask where it was picked up. , it is most suitable to push it on you. If there is something difficult to explain in the future, it is better to push it on you. "

Wang Shijing nodded, it was true, and he did not lose the concealment that Shao Yunan would have. He believed that as time passed, the other party would tell him.

Shao Yunan went on to say: "You just said to buy land to build a house, I mean you can buy less land first, and we can also buy the homestead we live in now, and I may have other uses in the future. But we will settle down in the future. The house is still bought elsewhere. I think the area can be bigger, the surrounding is quieter, and I don’t want to have residents all around.”

Wang Shijing: "Listen to you. Then buy ten acres of land first."

"Well, if we buy too much, we can't take care of it, and it will cause gossip. After all, we have no income in the eyes of others now, um, income. If we spend too much money, they will also think about whether we sold the stone or sold it. How much money. Not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves thinking. The house is still according to the original plan, and it will be built after the spring, and I will make money before that."

Wang Shijing said, "Just tell me what you want me to do. I don't have a way with you, and everything at home is up to you."

Shao Yunan restrained the corners of his mouth that couldn't help raising his mouth, and raised the piece of paper he was writing just now: "I've thought about a few small businesses that make money, but it's not my ideal way to make money. Let's do a small business first, Accumulate some original capital, that is, earn some money first, have the opportunity, and then do what I want to do.”

Wang Shijing immediately asked, "What do you want to do?"

Shao Yunan did not shy away: "I want to sell tea and wine. I have a different tea-making technique, and I can brew different wines. But these all require time and resources. You must have your own tea trees. Winemaking requires good grapes. , have to find seedlings."

When Wang Shijing heard this, he was very surprised: "You can make tea? Do you use grapes? I have seen people growing grapes in border crossings, and those beards can also make wine from grapes, but they are very astringent. I have tasted one and it is not good. ." He deliberately ignored the obvious suspiciousness of how someone from a Qingshan village in Shao Yunan could make tea and brew wine.

Shao Yunan was excited: "Have you ever seen wine?"

Wang Shijing nodded: "Beard can drink, but it's not good. Sometimes there is wine in the property we seized. It is said that only princes and nobles can drink this wine in the beard, and it is very expensive. There were also merchants in this dynasty who bought it and sold it. Although it is not good to drink, I heard that it is very valuable, and only the capital has it. These are what I heard from others when everyone had nothing to talk about. "

Shao Yunan was even more excited: "Then do you know where to buy grape seedlings?"

Wang Shijing said: "There are sales in the north. The closer you are to the beard, the more."

"I want to go..." Shao Yunan was so moved that he had good grape seeds himself, but he couldn't take them out abruptly, "Brother Ishii, can you find a way to help me get a batch of grape seedlings, even grape seeds. .I have a way to grow more."

Wang Shijing nodded vigorously: "I have a brother in the army from there. I wrote a letter and asked him to help me get some. Miao die easily, but grape seeds shouldn't be difficult. Which one do you want? There seem to be a lot of grapes. kind."

Shao Yunan wanted to shout, but he almost shouted: "All!"

"Okay, I'll write a letter tomorrow." There was a second of silence, "You write, I'll write not many words."

"No problem!" Shao Yunan didn't expect it to be so easy. Immediately afterwards, Wang Shijing gave him another big surprise, and he heard the other person say: "There are wild tea trees in the surrounding mountains, and the villagers will pick the tea leaves and sell them for a little money. You can move a few plants and cultivate more seedlings. There are not many people in the mountain village on the west side. It is far from the village. There are wild animals in the mountains. I have seen wild tea trees there. You can remove all of them there."

Shao Yunan was about to shout [Wang Shijing, I love you], what did he really want the other party to give! He said impatiently, "Brother Ishii, can you take me to the west for a look tomorrow? If we can pick enough tea leaves, maybe we will be able to use the money to build a house soon!"

"Okay, after breakfast tomorrow morning, let's go to Aunt Zhou's house to measure the measurements. By the way, let Aunt Zhou help take care of Brother Qing and Nizi. I'll take you into the mountain."

Shao Yunan showed sixteen teeth: "Brother Ishii, you are my noble person!"

Wang Shijing pursed his lips, avoiding Shao Yunan's scorching eyes by wiping his eyes, and there was a faint smile in his one eye.

At night, lying on the kang, although the two of them are still in separate beds, the distance between them has shortened a lot. Shao Yunan was very excited, and Wang Shijing obviously didn't fall asleep.

"Brother Ishii, the day after tomorrow, I want to go to the county town again."

"Okay."

"I want to buy two stone mills, one large and one small. They are useful. I also need to buy two new cast iron pots for tea making."

"The stone mill is made by the villagers. Don't buy ready-made iron pots. Go to the blacksmith's shop to make them now. The pots made in this way are more useful. The iron pots used for tea making should be the best."

Shao Yunan suddenly felt that he was lucky to meet Wang Shijing when he first came here. This person doesn't look at the big and three, but he is very careful.

"Then you go and buy the land we live in first. I'll decide how much to buy after I have seen the tea trees. If a certain amount of tea can be made, or a few small businesses I conceived can be made, Just buy more land, it’s better to buy the homestead for our new house in the future.”

"Okay, listen to you."

This home feels really good. Shao Yunan closed his eyes and became more motivated for the future life.

The next day, not long after the rooster crowing, Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan got up. Shao Yunan asked Wang Shijing to wash up first, and when Wang Shijing was done, he filled Wang Shijing with a basin of water to wipe his eyes. The night before, Wang Ishijing slept very well, and it was not because of the discomfort of his eyes that he could not sleep soundly all night. Wang Shijing is not without doubts. The damp cloth attached to the eyelids brings bursts of coolness. Perhaps, this is what Shao Yunan said that he cannot explain to him now. Wang Shijing wiped his eyes silently, looking at Shao Yunan who was busy in the kitchen.

"Brother Ishii, I don't know how to make pasta. Before I learned it, if you had pasta at home, you would do it."

"Okay."

"Dad, I will do it."

It was Wang Ni who got up early, followed by Wang Qing: "Dad, I can do it too."

"You got up so early." Shao Yunan, who was frying eggs in a large iron pan, stuck his head out of the kitchen. Shao Yunan has the memory of the original owner to make pasta, but he has never made it himself. The only pasta he can make is dim sum. But when he has time he will study. As the owner of two restaurants, Shao Yun'an does not reject being in the kitchen at all.

"We used to get up early." Wang Qing and Wang Ni entered the kitchen, the two children moved their noses, it smelled so good.

"Go to wash, there is hot water in the basin, and breakfast is porridge, steamed buns, pickles and fried eggs. Wash your hands and wash them with bath beans." The steamed buns left over last night were enough for the four of them to eat.

The two children immediately went to wash up, very obediently washing their hands with bath beans. Thinking that he was supposed to teach two children to practice calligraphy today, Shao Yunan said apologetically, "Brother Qing, Nizi, my dad is going up the mountain with your dad today to find something. The practice of calligraphy will have to wait for my dad to come back."

Wang Qing said sensible: "Dad, just go busy."

Wang Ni also said, "Wait until Daddy comes back to teach us."

Shao Yunan put the fried eggs in a bowl: "Why is my little father breaking his promise, wait for my little father to come back and make a big meal for you to apologize."

Wang Qing and Wang Ni laughed. Dad is back, and the little dad is so good. The two children are also full of hope for the future life. The previous fear of being bullied by the "stepfather" also dissipated in Shao Yunan's goodwill.

The four of them ate breakfast. Both Wang Qing and Wang Ni said they liked fried eggs very much. Wang Shijing didn't say whether they liked it or not, but they ate two of them. After eating, Wang Shijing washed the dishes, then took the cloth and took Shao Yunan and two children to Zhou's house.

Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou also got up early. When the couple came to dinner last night, they didn't bring Zhou Tianbao. Wang Shijing left a special meal for them to bring back to Zhou Tianbao. Zhou Tianbao smiled foolishly when he saw the strange guest. To trouble others to look after the children, Shao Yunan brought over all the snacks left over from yesterday. As soon as he came in, he gave Zhou Tianbao three yuan, which made Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou very embarrassed. Last night, I ate other people's food, just to help take care of the children, what's the point.

Afraid that Zhou Tianbao would collide with Shao Yunan and the two children, Uncle Zhou took his happy son to the ground to avoid it, and Aunt Zhou measured the four people. In addition to the trousers, the four people's inner and outer clothes need to be made by Aunt Zhou.

Wang Qing and Wang Ni were still children, and Aunt Zhou didn't mind being their trousers. Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan were the only ones who did it by themselves. Shao Yunan wondered in his mind how long the pile of modern underwear in his space would last him. While Aunt Zhou was measuring the size, she also taught Shao Yunan how to make the simplest pants. Shao Yunan was helpless, and Wang Shijing listened carefully. Wang Ni also listened very carefully. When she grows up, she will make the clothes for her father and little father.

Hearing that Aunt Zhou also made shoes, Shao Yunan immediately said that in the future, the shoes of his family of four would also be given to Aunt Zhou, and Aunt Zhou agreed with a smile.

After Aunt Zhou finished measuring the size, Wang Shijing paid the money, all of which belonged to the same village, and there was no need to pay first and deliver the goods. Aunt Zhou did not refuse, and let Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan just go about their business, and she would take care of the two children. Shao Yunan specially told the two children not to run around, and then went home with Wang Shijing, took the basket and bow and arrows up the mountain together.

Wang Shijing has been away from the village for five years, but he is no stranger to the mountains around the village. He has been treated harshly by his parents since he was a child, and as far as he can remember, he has never felt the warmth of his parents. Half the eldest child eats the poor old man. When Wang Shijing was growing up, he couldn't get enough to eat at home, and the second brother also ate some delicious mother. In order not to starve, Wang Shijing often sneaks into the mountains to find food, and also learns to hunt by himself, so he is very familiar with the mountains here. Now that he has practiced in the army for three more years, he is even less afraid of going into the mountains.

There was no way to go up the mountain, Wang Shijing opened the way with a machete in one hand and Shao Yunan's wrist tightly in the other. The dew that has not yet dissipated made the mountain road extremely slippery. Shao Yunan's body was thin and small. Wang Shijing grabbed his wrist without saying a word when he was going up the mountain, and did not let him break away. After walking for a while, Shao Yunan accepted this kind of service, otherwise it would be very difficult for him.
