I played as an assistant in ancient times

Chapter 140 It's precious

Please refresh the next day...

"Xiao Ye, it's not about when my younger brothers and sisters were born, it's about when my mother gave birth to them." Shen Cungeng came over and corrected her seriously.

My aunt pushed him away and said, "Go away, you are everywhere."

Have the mules and horses been fed? Is the kang heated? Have the notes for the next few days been checked?

Your grandfather and fourth uncle went to cook for everyone as soon as they came back."

"Oh my god, I just came home." Shen Cungeng lay on the kang and didn't want to move.

Shen Xiaoye laughed at him: "If you don't go, I will."

"No, no, no, I'll go." Shen Cungeng jumped up and ran to help his father.

As soon as he left, his grandmother, Mrs. Lin, said, "I estimate that the baby will be born in March. By then the weather will be warm, and neither the adults nor the children will suffer.

By then, my hands and feet will be more flexible, and I will take good care of you during the confinement period, and the two months of confinement period."

"Mom, I'm not that pampered. Look at how many women in the village have been pregnant for a full month." Aunt Huang didn't want her mother-in-law to work too hard.

Shen Xiaoye disagreed: "Other families are other families, uncle, don't compare."

She thought about it and decided to hire Yuan, the cook from the capital, to work for two months at a high salary. Lu Guan didn't come home often for dinner anyway, so she could send him back after her sister-in-law's full moon.

"Xiao Ye is right, you must take good care of yourself during the confinement period." She has always seen how much the eldest daughter-in-law has contributed to the family, and Lin also feels sorry for her daughter-in-law who has lost her parents' home.

She skipped the topic and continued, "By the way, have Changshun and his family returned to the city? I want to have a get-together for our two families while we're both here."

"My cousin and his wife sent Hui back home, but he only stayed at our house for two days before leaving.

And…” Before Huang could finish her words, Shen Cungeng ran in like the wind and asked, “Mom, have you sold all the rain-soaked sky-blue fabric in our room?

Are there any guests staying in our room?"

"No, Hui took it away." This is what Huang was about to say, "He said this color sells very well in the city, and he wants to sell it in his grandfather's store."

"Did you give the money?" Shen Xiaoye and his cousin asked in unison. In fact, they were not familiar with the eldest brother from the next room. They had only met him five times in the past two or three years.

Huang glanced at them and said, "How can he have so much money?"

Shen Cungeng immediately refused to give in, his face looking very unhappy, "Fifty horses, and the ninety horses from last time have not been given to you yet.

What does this mean, using our family’s money to make money for his grandfather?

Moreover, these fifty pieces are specially printed with patterns from newly engraved plates by Xiaoye, which is very valuable.”

"No matter how expensive it is, we are a family, how can you stop him from taking it away?" Lin asked him.

He replied, "Yes, cousin Hui never treated us as a family. If he wants to sell goods for Grandpa, let alone 50 pieces, he can sell them on credit even if it's 500 pieces."

"That's right. Great Grandpa devoted himself to them. Every time he saw them, he wanted to send them all the food and daily necessities at home.

In the end, they haven't come back for years. No wonder my great grandparents prefer to stay in Beijing. "Shen Xiaoye was very angry. You said that both grandpa and grandpa are relatives, why do you only care about one and leave the other.

She snorted: "Just because of last year's corvée, you won't come back?"

Then he stood up and said, "Cousin, let's go and invite our great grandparents to come for dinner."

"No need to go, they are not at home. They said they went to Lingshan to worship Buddha." Huang hurriedly stopped him.

Shen Xiaoye stopped and said, "I was wondering why we didn't see them come out after entering the village.

It turns out that he went to learn how to grow woad. My great grandfather is really smart. Worshiping Buddha is a good excuse. "

"You are talking nonsense. Go back to your room and clean up." Lin drove them away and did not allow her daughter-in-law to help.

As soon as the two of them left the main room, Shen Xiaoye asked, "What else made you so angry? Those cloths are not silk, they are not that precious."

“All the test papers I put on my desk have been looked through.

That’s fine, but the Spring and Autumn Annals annotated by Mr. Lin on the bookshelf is also gone.

My grandfather was in the kitchen, so I didn't dare tell my fourth uncle without asking clearly.

I knew my mother wouldn't let outsiders into the room, so I started asking about the lesser amount of cloth.

Mother doesn't seem to know anything about it." Shen Cungeng took a deep breath and said, "I'd better go to the back and ask Dad!"

Ninety-nine percent of the time, it was cousin Hui who took it. I hope he told dad about it."

"If he also made the Spring and Autumn Annals, it is understandable that he was excited to borrow it." What could Shen Xiaoye say.

Fortunately, my uncle really knew it. "Hui said the annotations on it were very good, so he borrowed it to copy."

But he didn't know that the Spring and Autumn Annals borrowed by Shen Cunhui was seen by his classmate, and because the other party had a good family background, he was embarrassed to refuse him from borrowing it.

As a result, within a few days, many people in the city were selling a copy of the Spring and Autumn Annals annotated by Master Lin.

Also, because the provincial capital was the throat of the capital, only a few dozen miles away and convenient for travel, the book quickly spread to the capital.

That day, just as Mr. Lin left the yamen to lead his donkey, his second son, Lin Enxun, came rushing to him.

He also criticized: "It's too much."

"Dad, the situation is urgent, look at this." His son took out a book.

Scholar Lin flipped it open puzzledly, and after a moment, his brows slightly frowned: "Where did it come from?"

"A classmate of mine bought it in the capital. He heard that a bookstore was promoting the Grand Secretary's personal annotations."

……

The next day, they all got up half an hour late. Shen Li opened the window and watched the three of them finish a set of boxing in the yard before meditating again.

Late last night, he successfully drew the Qi into his body, and his injuries were alleviated a lot.

Not long after entering into meditation, I heard someone talking outside the gate.

"You little girl, how can you know if you can't see me?" A woman stroked her hairpin and glared at Shen Xia. "I'm telling you, I'm the third daughter-in-law of your fifth uncle's family. You have to call me aunt."

Shen Xia stood outside the door. Her eldest sister and second brother went to the river to wash the sheets, and Ah Shui followed them. She really didn't recognize the middle-aged woman in front of her.

"Axia, I am Mrs. Tu, and this is really the elder of your family.

As soon as I heard that your elder brother was injured, I rushed here overnight." Tu Erjia smiled, but unfortunately Shen Xia couldn't see it.

She said calmly: "From Baixi Village to our Yuntao Village, it's only ten miles of mountain road, Sister Tu, did you spend the night in the mountains?

There are tigers and wolves in this mountain, you two are really brave." Shen Xia gave a thumbs up.

Xu Jincheng, who came with them, put his hand on his friend Daniu's shoulder and laughed: "Forget it, you entered the village at dusk yesterday and spent the night at my second sister-in-law's house."

He caught up with the two people who brought them here, and they were obviously going to the town’s medical clinic to inquire.

Brother Shen's camp is stationed ten miles north of the town. When they need medicine, they usually go to the town to get it, as it is closer than the capital.

I just returned to the village overnight, and I got up late this morning and didn't have time to inform Heng Ge'er.

The woman raised her voice and said, "Why are you meddling in other people's business? Brother Li is seriously injured, and Sister Huan is a young girl of marriage age, how can she manage dozens of acres of land?
