    ?

    The room was silent.

    The current situation in the family is that the first house and the second house are supporting the family. Chen Fugui, Gao Shi and Chen Jiaoniang are supported by these two houses, and the second house is paid by the public on the grounds that Chen Yuchuan is studying, but in fact it is these two houses.  pay.

    Both Dafang and Erfang knew it clearly in their hearts, but no one took the initiative to say it. Now Yuzhi's words broke the seemingly peaceful situation, and the room suddenly fell into a stalemate.

    Saburo Chen Yaowen looked at his elder brother Chen Yaozu, and seeing Chen Yaozu sitting there listlessly, he got up and said: "Father, mother, elder brother, I'm going back first, you should also rest early!"

    After saying that, he lifted his legs and went out.

    Chen Jiaoniang leaned against the door and realized something was wrong, she reached out to pull Chen Yaowen: "Third brother¡ª¡ª"

    Chen Yaowen leaned aside, avoiding Chen Jiaoniang, and strode back to the West Wing.

    He and Mrs. Dong worked in the fields all year round, coming in the wind and going in the rain, Mrs. Dong had cracks on her hands, and she took Yuhe with her when she went to the ground.

    It's okay for them to support their parents and sisters, so why should they support the second room?

    The room became even more silent, and Chen Jiaoniang stomped her feet coquettishly: "Brother, go and take care of Third Brother!"

    Chen Yaozu didn't speak.

    Gao's eyeballs rolled around, and he said in the most gentle and loving voice: "My Dalang, mother knows that you are the most filial and caring, and I only talk to you if I have anything to say. Your nephew Yuchuan is our Chen  The hope of the family, in the future, if you pass the Juren examination, and then the Jinshi examination, and become an official lord, wouldn't everyone in our Chen family have a bright face"

    Chen Yaozu hung his head and said nothing. After Gao's words came to an end, he said in a muffled voice: "Father, mother, I understand. I'm going back. It's late at night, you should sleep too!"

    After Chen Yaozu left, Chen Fugui and Gao Shi looked at each other, looking at each other, not knowing what to say.

    Gao Shi said: "His father, why don't we let the second room also pay monthly? At least on the surface?"

    Chen Fugui smoked his pipe, and said for a long time: "Let's talk!"

    Chen Jiaoniang entered the main room, leaning on Gao's armchair and muttering: "Could it be possible to let Chen Yuzhi off like this"

    She pushed Gao's shoulder: "Mother, Chen Yuzhi's little bastard is really annoying, you have to find a way to deal with her!"

    Gao suddenly asked: "Jiaoniang, how is Yuzhi's stewed meat business?"

    Chen Jiaoniang tried her best to recall the events of the day, but after thinking for a long time, she could only remember the every move of her beloved Sun Erlang, and could not remember anything else clearly, so she said, "I'll go and see tomorrow!"

    Gao thought thoughtfully: "Take a good look, and come back and tell me."

    At noon, Mrs. Wang went home to help Mrs. Dong cook, and dried Yuzhi's mattress by the way.

    In the evening, Yuzhi lay in bed, warm, as if surrounded by the breath of sunlight, and soon fell asleep.

    The next day, when it was almost noon, seeing that there was no business, Chen Yaozu went home with Wang, leaving Yuzhi alone to guard the stall.

    Fang Shi, the wife of Sun Lizheng in Xihe Town, came to buy braised pork again.

    Yuzhi remembered that she met Xu Shoubei in Dawangzhuang, who was asking how to get to Xihe Town, so she tentatively asked Fang: "Aunt Fang, I bought so much stewed meat, will Uncle Fang still have wine today?"

    Mrs. Fang is a talkative and laughing person, immediately said with a smile: "Where does my family have money for him to eat meat and wine every day? The county is going to build a fort outside Xihe. The county's garrison Mr. Xu came to survey the terrain. He is at my house at noon.  Eat!"

    Yuzhi heard this, her heart moved, and after weighing four catties of stewed meat for Fang, she cut another piece and put it in, and said with a smile: "Aunt Fang is my regular customer, I will give you an extra piece, if Mr. Xu likes it  My family's 'Chen Niangzi Braised Pork', please give Auntie Fang some kind words, if Master Xu also visits, my family's business will definitely get better and better!"

    Aunt Fang saw that the piece Yuzhi added was worth two taels, she couldn't help but said happily: "That's natural, don't worry, Mr. Xu is very kind to others!"

    Yuzhi smiled sweetly and watched Aunt Fang leave.

    When Aunt Fang walked away, Yuzhi's smile gradually disappeared, and her strong brows frowned¡ª¡ªIf she remembers correctly, Ganzhou is the northwest border of Dazhou, and Xihewai to the west of Xihe Town is Dazhou.  On the front line where Zhou and Xixia confront each other, Xu Zhaoen, a famous general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, defeated the Xixia army outside Xihe twelve years ago, known as the Great Victory of Xihe

    No wonder the fortress was built outside Xihe

    Xixia people live as nomads and don¡¯t care about farming. Every winter and spring, they cross the border to Ganzhou, Ningzhou and Liangzhou on the northwestern border of the Zhou Dynasty to hunt grass valleys, kill men and plunder women.??, robbing the people of Da Zhou of food, livestock and other property.

    Da Zhou could only station troops along the northwest border, build fortresses, and strictly guard against the looting of the Xixia people.

    Yuzhi thought silently: It seems that the speed of saving money must be accelerated

    Just at this moment, a slender girl of twelve or thirteen came over: "Sister, I'll buy a catty of stewed pork."

    Yuzhi didn't think about it any more, and Xiao Yingying picked up a piece with bamboo chopsticks for the girl to see: "What do you think of this piece?"

    As soon as the girl nodded, Xiulan squeezed over and said with a smile, "It's Qin Zhen's younger sister! It was your elder brother who came yesterday, why are you here today?"

    This girl named Qin Zhen pursed her lips and said softly, "My brother went to the city to buy medicine for daddy, and I'm here to buy yesterday's stewed meat for daddy to drink."

    It was only then that Yuzhi knew that this girl was Qin Rui's younger sister. She sized her up unobtrusively, and found that Qin Zhenliu had eyebrows and almond eyes, a straight nose, bright red lips, and a slender figure. She was indeed somewhat similar to Qin Rui.

    She weighed a catty of stewed meat, cut it into even thin slices for Qin Zhen, wrapped it in oiled paper, tied it with paper rope, and handed it to Qin Zhen with a smile: "Forty Wen!"

    Qin Zhen took out an exquisite purse, took out forty Wen coins from it, counted them, and put them into the money box that Xiulan handed over.

    After Qin Zhen walked away, Xiulan said in a low voice: "Qin Rui's father may not survive this spring."

    Yuzhi looked up at Xiulan.

    Xiulan saw Yuzhi's big black eyes, black and big eyeballs, long eyelashes, looking at herself intently, eyes full of doubts, she couldn't help laughing: "Big-eyed thief, your eyes really can talk  !"

    Yuzhi patted her shoulder lightly: "What's going on?"

    The smile on Xiulan's face subsided: "Qin Rui's father was injured by the Xixia peopleI'm afraid he won't be able to make it through, if he dies now, Qin Rui will have to observe mourning for three years.  You can't take the township exam"

    Seeing that Xiulan was really sad for Qin Rui, Yuzhi thought about it, and comforted her: "In this case, you just have 27 more months to cultivate your relationship with Qin Rui!"

    Xiulan: "Huh?"

    Seeing that she didn't understand for a while, Yuzhi explained: "If Qin Rui takes the provincial examination and high school this year, you will have no chance at all."

    Xiulan understood now, she immediately beamed with joy, hugged Yuzhi and kissed her hard: "Yuzhi, you are so smart!"

    Yuzhi smiled slightly, picked up the two extra pieces of stewed meat just now, and fed them to Xiulan: "I am not only smart, but also kind!"

    While covering her mouth and chewing, Xiulan tried her best to mobilize her tongue and praised: "It's so delicious! Yuzhi, is it true that all braised pork in the world is so delicious?"

    Yuzhi smiled triumphantly, her big eyes bent into crescent moons: "My stewed pork is the best in the world!"

    The two girls were laughing, when a boy came over and raised his chin at Yuzhi and the others: "How much braised pork do you have left? Our adults want it all!"

    Yuzhi has a photographic memory when she sees people, and immediately recognized this young man as Xu Shoubei's young man, whom she had seen in Dawangzhuang last time.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
