Wen Family Has a Wife

"You are this?" Chen Ningya asked with wide eyes.

Wen Youshan couldn't help laughing bitterly, "The people in the village gave it, and what you said is a courtesy."

Chen Ningya: "" She hurriedly sorted those things away, only to find that there were twenty eggs alone, and other mountain goods were estimated to be two kilograms, and there were also sixteen dumplings. The shapes of the packages were different. The good four are estimated to be bought in the town, because even the straps are very delicate, not like the ones made by themselves.

Chen Ningya took one off casually, took a bite, and there was no turbulence on her face. This businessman was sincere, saying that the red jujube was packaged with red dates, and there was nothing else. Except for the beautiful package, there was really nothing unusual.

Not to mention how Chen Ningya complained, several families who received her dumplings were very pleasantly surprised. Wen Youshan specially chose different flavors when sending them, and Chen Ningya didn't hesitate when she made the bag. Foot, the dumplings are also relatively large, one is enough for three or four children.

Mrs. Li took one for the grandchildren to eat, and the child cried out after taking a bite. Several adults tasted it curiously, all looking shocked.

"Mother, what's on the head here? It tastes weird." Mrs. Li licked her lips and asked.

Li looked at it for a long time, and said uncertainly: "It should be peanuts and black hemp. It is estimated that there is sugar in it. It tastes sweet, tsk tsk tsk, this stuff is much more expensive than the dango we make."

At this moment, Mrs. Li suddenly regretted eating one piece, and at the same time felt that it was a bit stingy to give Wen Youshan only four dumplings.

Unlike Li's annoyance, the village chief was very fortunate. Their family also tasted the dumplings sent by Wen Youshan, and the adults and children were not satisfied. At first, the village chief's wife felt distressed about the dim sum and said a few words, After eating the dumplings, he didn't say a word, let alone the dumplings made by Wen's family.

It is said that people are short-handed and soft-mouthed. On the day of Jing Zhe, Wen Youshan began to descend to the ground, and he met many villagers along the way. Everyone took the initiative to say hello to him. He was also kind and enthusiastic. I didn't even think of a reason. Fortunately, it's not a big deal. If you don't understand it, don't think about it. The most important thing is spring ploughing. No time to spare, of course, the most important thing is Wen Yuanliang going to school.

He had inquired about it last year. There was no decent school in the town at all. Only a scholar in Yangjia Village, 30 miles away from Fushan Village, ran a private school. He heard that there were not many students and he received a lot of money. How do you calculate it? It's not worth it, after thinking about it, the county town is more reliable.

Last year, because the school didn't accept people, he didn't inquire carefully. This time, he must ask carefully. It's best to buy something to talk to Feng Chutou.

Wen Youshan, who had made up his mind, worked harder, and I don't know if it was an illusion. When he came back to work the next day, he always felt that the ground he had turned over had grown a bit bigger, but when he looked around, everyone was surprised. There was nothing wrong with the work, so he had no choice but to continue working at a loss. Because the land was not big, he was only busy for four days and it was finished. After the crops were planted, a little more water would be done.

On the first day of going to the county seat, Wen Youshan went to the mountain to repair traps. After a winter, many traps were crushed by snow, and some of them had prey in them. Unfortunately, they were not able to get them out in time, and they had already rotted badly. There is also the kind of prey that has just fallen in. As long as it is still edible, he will take it away, and the rest will be cleaned up. After only one day of work, he will bring back four pheasants, which are a little thinner and look no meat. , but how much can be exchanged for some money.

So, Wen Youshan set off with four pheasants. This time, he did not use a scooter, but carried a bamboo basket on his back. He went into battle lightly, and when he got to the town, he took a donkey cart to spend some money to save time.

When he wandered to the county town just after noon, he sold the pheasants for money, and then went to cut two catties of fat pork, two small jars of wine, and a pack of five kernel cakes sold by Yunxiangzhai.

With these things in hand, Wen Youshan went directly to the Feng family.

The Feng family is a private residence in the south of the county. Most of the people living here are from wealthy families.

The high courtyard walls separate the houses, and the houses are not very big, but although the sparrows are small and complete, there are as many things as they should be.

It was Feng Xinghai's eldest son Feng Hongyu who opened the door for Wen Youshan. The boy was dressed in a water-blue fine linen robe, a tea-brown moiré-patterned horn belt was tied around his waist, and a long water-blue belt was tied around his hair. The hairpin has a fair complexion and bright eyes. He really has the freshness and elegance of a young boy, but he doesn't seem to be very old at this age.

Wen Youshan asked hesitantly, "Is this Feng Zhaotou's house?"

"Are you looking for my father?" Feng Hongyu looked up and down Wen Youshan and determined that this was a raw face.

Wen Youshan nodded hurriedly and said with a smile, "My name is Wen Youshan, I'm your father's friend, and I came here to visit today."

Wen Youshan was still a little nervous when he said this, and the friend in his mouth didn't know whether he recognized him or not.

Feng Hongyu naturally noticed what Wen Youshan was carrying, nodded slightly, and said softly, "My father has gone to the yamen, and he will be back in a while, please come in and have a cup of tea."

The spring ploughing is halfway through now, and there is nothing to do in the yamen. Feng Xinghai will come back sooner.

Sure enough, Wen Youshan had just sat for a while when there was the sound of the door opening from outside the yard. Feng Xinghai strode into the house and looked at Wen Youshan before he even opened his mouth. The two big men looked at each other for a while, Feng Xinghai only In a trance, he said loudly, "Brother Wen?"

"Hey, it's me, it's me." Wen Youshan breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stood up and handed the things to Feng Xinghai, "I originally wanted to visit during the Chinese New Year, but the weather was freezing cold, and the village was far from the county seat, so I went out. It's inconvenient, so I have to postpone it until now, because last year's things haven't gone well, thank you Brother Feng."

Since everyone called him his brother, he naturally had to recognize this big brother.

Feng Xinghai waved his hand and said indifferently, "It's not a big deal. Besides, you guys have relieved a lot of trouble for the yamen. I thank you for being too late."

Feng Xinghai is indeed very grateful to Wen Youshan and his wife. If they hadn't been good at talking, I don't know how long this matter would have dragged on. More importantly, the replacement of Haitian would definitely trigger everyone's interests. It's not time for them to come forward to solve it.

Wen Youshan laughed twice, not daring to take credit. The two chatted for a while before he asked curiously, "Brother Feng, I think your son is completely different from the mud monkeys in our village. He looks like a scholar. Are you studying?"

Feng Xinghai nodded slightly, mentioning his son's eyes full of pride, "To tell you the truth, my son was enlightened when he was five years old, and now he is nine years old. He has almost finished studying "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Surnames", and "Thousand Characters". When I was ten years old, I started to learn the Analects."
