Scholars in the courtyard

Seeing Yang Xiaotao's appearance, Aunt Fan's face burst into laughter. Seeing everyone around her looking over, she hurriedly explained, "Xiao Yang, didn't Auntie use your medicinal wine?"

"you do not know."

"My daughter-in-law is here, she is here."

"Next year I'll be able to hold a big fat boy."

Aunt Fan grabbed Yang Xiaotao's hand and patted it, "We went to the hospital for a checkup today, and the doctor said yes, she is pregnant."

"I've spent so much time in the past, but it doesn't work."

"It's all thanks to you."

"Auntie, I really don't know how to thank you."

Aunt Fan said on the side, and the man kept stuffing meat into Yang Xiaotao's hand, "Yang, Mr. Yang, you have to accept this meat. You are a great benefactor to my family, so you must accept it."

"When my child is born, I will treat you to a wedding banquet."

Yang Xiaotao was carrying the pork, but he was still confused.

Really useful?

He remembered that the prescription he gave was obviously just for strengthening the body. Could it be this kid?

Yang Xiaotao subconsciously looked at the top of the man's head.

But I quickly realized that maybe that last shiver was missing.

Strengthening the body, the effect is just right.

"Congratulations, congratulations."

Yang Xiaotao congratulated, and the two of them also smiled. The people around him were shocked at first, and then they also reacted, congratulating Aunt Fan while asking for news.

Perhaps because they had a child, the whole family was overjoyed and had nothing to hide. They told their situation and everyone nodded frequently.

Not long after, news spread that Aunt Fan's son had a baby after drinking medicinal wine, causing an uproar again.

After the two left, Yang Xiaotao picked up the meat and prepared to go home.

Yan Fugui saw the envy in his eyes. When Yang Xiaotao announced it earlier, he thought he was stupid, but looking at it now, if one person succeeds, he will be given so much meat, but what about two people? What about ten people?

And this is a network of connections. In the future, he will definitely be a die-hard supporter of Yang Xiaotao.

This guy is really extraordinary.

Another person came over at the gate. Yan Fugui was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yang Xiaotao.

At this time, Yang Xiaotao also saw the person coming, but stopped paying attention to him for a moment.

Yi Zhonghai!

Considering the holiday tomorrow, it makes sense for the other party to come back.

Thinking of this, he turned around and left without waiting for Yi Zhonghai to approach.

Yi Zhonghai saw Yang Xiaotao carrying the meat, and a flash of envy flashed in his eyes.

I envy Yang Xiaotao's good life and his current status.

If that year

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world.

Carrying the baggage in their hands, they walked towards the middle courtyard. As for Yan Fugui, the two of them just nodded.

During this period, he heard that a lot of things had happened in the courtyard, and he was eager to find out. Yi Zhonghai passed the Weeping Flower Gate and saw Yang Xiaotao entering the yard, so he walked back home.

Not long after, he carried a bag of things, greeted the people in the courtyard, and walked out.

At this moment, there was another discussion about the prescription in the courtyard. People who had not taken it seriously at first were now trying every possible means to find out the prescription.

Qin Huairu watched Yang Xiaotao leave and lowered her head sadly. The machinery factory had given out benefits, including a lot of rice dumplings and meat.

I really envy this person.

It's pity for their family. The orphans and widowers have no income and have nothing to do. Not to mention eating rice dumplings, even eating steamed buns is not easy.

Qin Jingru was sitting on a small bench beside her. Now the two sisters were hugging each other in the courtyard to keep warm. Fortunately, she was provided with money from the Xu family every month, which was better than Qin Huairu.

But these are all her youth.

The two sighed and looked even more helpless when they saw other people in the yard exchanging information about the formula.

They say that when things go wrong, drinking cold water can fill the gap between your teeth.

But Yang Xiaotao is so smooth, he can make money with any recipe.

Casually, I was given a large piece of pork, which must have weighed about ten kilograms.

I'm so envious.

The two of them watched Yang Xiaotao walk away, and then looked away.

Then I looked back and listened to the eldest mother telling me about the recent situation.

Yi Zhonghai was smoking a cigarette, and there was a sour smell in the room. His eyes glanced at Qin Huairu from time to time, and then he thought of Silly Zhu.

I was glad in my heart that what happened last time did not involve me, otherwise it would be difficult for me to come back.

But he quickly focused on the medicinal wine formula announced by Yang Xiaotao.

He always felt that this thing was not that simple.

Especially the second one, it feels like it was added on purpose, too deliberate.

Thinking about Yang Xiaotao and Silly Zhu, could it be him?

"What was said in the yard just now?"

Yi Zhonghai vaguely heard whose child it was. Before the eldest mother could say anything, Qin Huairu spoke first, "It's Aunt Fan's house in the alley next door. She said her daughter-in-law is pregnant after drinking medicinal wine."

"real?"

"Nine times out of ten it's true."

Qin Huairu said, and then saw Yi Zhonghai looking at her and turning his head to the side.

This medicinal wine is not something that ordinary people can drink.

Silly Zhu tried his best to get it, but the recipe was announced directly. Now, the recipe is announced, but he can't use it.

It is really a blind man lighting a lamp in vain.

As for Yi Zhonghai, it was not like she had never seen him before.

Compared with the stupid pillar, Yi Zhonghai is directly missing one.

Besides, it couldn't be used last time, so giving him the prescription would be too much.

But the next second, Qin Huairu suddenly thought, if the formula is not given to him, what if it is given to someone else?

Can the prescription be sold?

Or just give drugs and drink, and then earn benefits?

It seems very feasible.

In an instant, Qin Huairu thought of the way to get rich.

Before word spreads, go to the countryside or further afield and make some money.

"I didn't expect that so many things would happen."

Yi Zhonghai saw Qin Huairu ignoring him, then looked at Qin Jingru, sighed, and the aunt nodded silently.

"Lao Yi, why do you think this pillar won't come back?"

"Yes, Master, you are back for the festival, why haven't you come back yet?"

Qin Huairu looked anxious, thinking that if Silly Zhu came back, he might be able to bring some local specialties.

"this."

Yi Zhonghai didn't know if Shazhu could come back, but seeing that it was still early, he persuaded him, "Maybe it's too far and I won't be able to come back for a while."

"Let's wait and see in the afternoon."

Qin Huairu nodded silently, while Qin Jingru touched her belly.

Hearing this, Qin Huairu nodded, then went home and took out a basin of clothes, went to the faucet and started washing.

After the two left, Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and then asked his aunt, "His aunt, go and ask if the medicinal wine really works."

The aunt looked suspicious, even if it worked, would you still use it?

I'm old enough that I can't do anything good anymore. Who do you want to use it with?

Auntie stood there thinking wildly, and then Yi Zhonghai realized that he had acted too hastily and said the wrong thing.

He hurriedly explained, "The youngest son of Caojiagou Village Chief's family has been married for two years and has no children. I just want to help them."

Hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Auntie nodded quickly.

"Then I have to help you. I can take care of you when the time comes."

"Just wait, I'll go to Third Aunt's place and ask for one."

"It's all Si Zhu's fault. He asked for the formula and threw it into the fire. Otherwise, it would have been so troublesome to use it."

The aunt went out chatteringly. Yi Zhonghai sat next to her, holding a glass of water and sipping, but her eyes were directed at Qin Huairu who was washing clothes outside.

Butler Zhuangzi.

The sun is shining high, and the blazing sunshine bakes the earth, making the farmers who are working hard to harvest smile with joy despite the sweat on their faces.

Such good weather is rare.

In the past, they had to finish harvesting and drying before it rained.

If it rains, it will not only delay the harvest, but also delay the planting of corn.

One step is slow, each step is slow.

Many times it takes the whole village to plant all the land in the village.

Now it's better, God is happy, in such a dry and hot weather, as long as the wheat is harvested, sent to the threshing floor, the wheat grains are threshed out, it only takes two days to dry in the sun, and then sent to the grain station, their Most of the worries are gone!

The people in the field would lift up their waists and rest after working for a while, then they would shout to the people around them to see who was working faster in front of them, and they would already be smoking the rolled tobacco on the ground, pointing at the people who were not finished. Pointing and pointing, very proud.

The face of the person who was hit didn't know whether it was because of embarrassment or because it was red from the sun. He immediately lowered his head and harvested the wheat, and the sounds of clicking came one after another.

Behind them, a group of women gathered the wheat into a pile. Then they picked up a handful of wheat, put their heads together, and twisted them skillfully to form a "rope." It is twisted together, and finally the end is stuffed into the wheat pile, so that the pile of wheat is tied together.

The women move on to the next pile.

Not far away, a man driving an ox cart stopped aside. Two young men got out of the cart, placed the bundled wheat piles on the cart, and then pulled it to the threshing floor.

Around the car, a group of children lowered their heads to pick up the wheat on the ground. Whenever they picked up a piece, they would run to the collection place and shout as if they were taking credit. The main thing was not to leave a grain of wheat for the sparrows.

There were busy people all around, and pieces of golden light were cut off, just like the horizon was cut out of thin air, revealing the gray land.

In the wheat field, at the end, Silly Zhu was holding a sickle, holding a handful of wheat with his head lowered, and then cut the wheat with two crunches, then put the wheat behind him, then straightened up, rubbed his sore back, and took a breather Rough.

All around him there was nothing but four rows of wheat waiting to be harvested.

And he was only halfway there.

Looking down at the calluses on his hands, Silhu felt aggrieved.

Ever since he came to Guanjia Zhuangzi, the village captain knew where he was coming from, but he didn't look good on him.

Every day when he went out on a mission, he was given the hardest and dirtiest work, and his residence was placed next to the stable, in a hut that used to hold fodder.

Is that a place where people can live?

There wasn't even a bed in the house, so he could only make a bed with straw on the floor these days.

Not only was it uncomfortable to sleep, but I was also bitten by mosquitoes, so I couldn't sleep well at all.

Not to mention, eating is simply a suffering.

The steamed buns I ate in the city before were also Erhe noodles.

No matter how bad it is, it's still stick noodles.

But here, the sweet potato seedlings and the sweet potato noodles made from sweet potatoes are simply not meant for human consumption.

Better stick noodles, those are real stick noodles.

Even the corn cobs are crushed together!

Speaking of this, Shazhu's heart felt cold.

They say that a cook will never die of hunger.

It wasn’t like this when I went to Caojiagou before.

Why is it so difficult to get here?

"Why are you standing there stupidly, do it quickly!"

"Why do I have to deal with a person like you? You look quite strong, but when you do the work, you are worse than a girl!"

Just when Silhu was filled with unbearable sorrow, a woman's voice came from behind, saying with disdain, "No wonder he was driven to the countryside. People like you are a drag on people in the city."

"You can't even do the work well, and you still eat so well. You look like a lazy coward who eats well."

The woman behind her was chattering endlessly, but Silly Zhu could only lower his head and endure it.

I can't bear it. We are all related in this village. If you are provoked and you are isolated, it is a light thing. You may get beaten and you will not be able to deal with it.

These are all lessons he has learned through blood these past few days.

There is no way, even if the Siheyuan God of War comes to this village, he has to be a sick cat.

What's more, someone is in charge of something. If the gun goes off, his death will be in vain.

I’m still thinking about going back to Sijiu City!

Just like the woman behind him with a dark face, short hair and a sparrow face, who is not only foul-mouthed but also has a bad mouth. If such a person had existed in the past, he would have fought back long ago.

But this woman was from the village chief's family and had a higher seniority. When he got angry, he shouted and a group of people came up and beat him.

He is really untouchable.

People under the eaves have to bow their heads.

Silly Zhu could only endure the quarrel behind him, and bent down with his eyes blank, continuing to cut the wheat.

It’s just that this day, when will it end!
