The Chinese New Year is a good one, especially in Sujiazhuang.
What every household valued was spring plowing and adequate preparation of seeds and fertilizers. If a small household was wealthy, the family would be strong, so Zheng Yue'e treated every household the same, and distributed grain according to the number of fields.
Because the Su family is in the genealogy, Su Zhuzhu and his wife can no longer work as long-term workers in the Su family. However, the Su family's affairs are the affairs of the whole village. There is no need for Chen Yu and his family to do spring plowing.
Everyone in the village has to take care of the fields of the Second Grandma’s house first, and then they can take care of their own fields.
Zhou Dahu's family is still the long-term workers. No matter how they are not people with the same surname, it is impossible to create a genealogy. Therefore, except for the Zhou family, several families with other surnames are attached to Chen Yu's family and are also assigned houses.
Pang came over with red eyes to announce the good news. As soon as they met, he said: "Second Grandma, my Dabao is back, and Dabao has brought his wife and children with him."
Chen Yu remembered that because of poverty, Su Dabao's marriage was rejected and he left home. After all these years, he finally came back. While he was happy for Pang, he told Pang to tell the clan leader that the family tree was a big deal.
.
At the same time, Su Deyan's youngest son was three years old, named Su Youji, and his grandson Su Zhengqian, including Su Zhanqing and Miao Huaixiu, all had their own yards in Zhuangzi. Su Deyan, who came back to pay the accounts this time, was filled with emotion.
Born and raised here, he never dreamed that such a day would come to Sujiazhuang!
The idea of coming back to retire one day is getting stronger and stronger.
He had no choice but to leave Sujiazhuang, but after the birth of his son, he became relieved and no longer hated Su Zhanqing. Looking back, he felt that his life was just like this.
All the big shopkeepers took their people and rushed back to their battlefields.
Sihai Freight rushed to various places with goods, and the entire Su family was moved.
Chen Yu was very free. When she was free, she lived in the tea mountain again. Because the new tea trees used the spring water from the spring on the wall, she could pick a batch of spring tea. Such tea would taste really good when fried alone, especially if it is cooked with wall spring water.
Brewed with spring water from Shangquan, the taste is soothing that just one sip will make you feel comfortable.
People often see Chen Yu on the mountain. Her thin back is either carrying a backpack or busy with a curved sickle. She is wearing a simple commoner and a blue scarf on her head.
I would also sit in the tea garden and talk to the girls picking tea, about how to set one's mind and struggle in this life.
And she has become the female student of the women in Sujiazhuang, and everyone will learn the wisdom of life from her.
As if echoing her, girls' schools everywhere have also passed the time of being used as a talking point after dinner. More and more people are willing to send their daughters to girls' schools and are proud of it.
The emperor's recruitment list was the first of its kind, and all capable people and strangers could contribute to the imperial court. The imperial court would enrich the officials and curb corruption, the government at the upper and lower levels would be clear, and the people would live and work in peace and contentment.
The illustrious reputation of the third son of the Su family has been downplayed, but his achievements are no less. Those who serve as officials in the imperial court have the feeling that they are like masters. The prosperity of the Dai Viet Kingdom has slowly come, but it is not majestic but as powerful as a forest.
There is an endless stream of water, looking ahead and looking at the endless stream behind.
Unlike the three sons of the Su family who were downplayed, the Su family's business spread all over Dai Viet, and the Su family's business covering the county capital brought a steady stream of wealth to the Su family, and this wealth did not need to replenish the national treasury.
Zheng Yue'e finally became a lot more mellow, and walked briskly to Chashan with the letter in hand: "Mother! Mother!"
Chen Yu, who was picking mushrooms, raised his head, looked at Zheng Yue'e's happy face, and said with a smile: "Is Yu Ling giving birth?"
"Uh-huh, mom, she's a man, and she cried a lot because of this sixth child, saying she wanted a daughter!" Zheng Yuee'e couldn't help but laugh: "But a young man is already a father, and he's still crying."
Chen Yuxiao had two more wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. He took the letter and unfolded it. Looking at Su Sanlang's letter, there was joy in every word.
"Okay! Now Yu Ling feels at ease. She arranged for the glass makers to come to Beijing and asked Sanlang to present a memorial. The Su family's glass business was dedicated to the court." Chen Yu said and glanced at Zheng Yue'e: "Does it feel bad?"
Zheng Yue'e immediately shook her head: "I don't feel bad. As long as it's what mother said, whether you take it out or take it back, it must be right!"
"What a stupid wife." Chen Yu gave her a handkerchief and said, "Wipe off your sweat and go have tea with your mother."
When the couple sat down to drink tea, Chen Yu thought about it and asked: "Yue'e, I haven't heard from Jun Yan for a few days. It stands to reason that girls' schools are open everywhere, so she shouldn't be too busy, right?
?”
"Mom, Second Miss Lin has a restless temper. She should have chosen a female school she likes to stop and be busy there." Zheng Yue'e took a sip of tea and clicked her tongue a few times: "It's really delicious. Our family
The best tea ever!”
After this interruption, Chen Yu started talking about how to arrange tea at home.
"Mom, you told me years ago that we should survive this year, but there is no need. The court does not need us to send money to the treasury, and our family's treasury will be abundant." Zheng Yue'e said with a smile.
Chen Yu smiled: "This year is the dormant period, and next year will be the time when the Su family will soar into the sky. Keep this momentum up, and when Mr. Zheng returns from overseas, the Su family will take another step forward."
"Mom, I just like money." Zheng Yue'e asked with a smile: "Do we need to differentiate our teas? We need to make a difference in price."
Chen Yu nodded: "People who have been poor have nothing wrong with liking money."
When he put down the teacup, Chen Yu couldn't help but think of Lin Junyan again. He lowered his eyes and looked at the large and two small tea leaves floating in the teacup, and sighed slowly.
"Mom, are you worried about something?" Zheng Yuee asked.
Chen Yu shook his head: "No, everything is going well at home, what's the point of melancholy?"
Little did they know!
In the small village, Yingge was so anxious that she could not walk unsteadily. She quickly led Po Wen into the yard and opened the door: "Second sister, I'm back!"
"Okay." Lin Junyan's voice was weak. When she saw Yingge and Wenpo, she said softly: "No hurry, no rush."
From the time they lived here, the two of them were treated like sisters, and they claimed that their family was in ruins and their husband's whereabouts were unknown.
Yingge meant to tell the outside world that she was widowed, but how could Lin Junyan agree? That's why she said her whereabouts were unknown.
The people in the village are all kind and take good care of the two of them. On the day of delivery, many aunts and ladies came to help.
Busy work inside and outside, with blood and water being carried out in basins, Lin Junyan recalled what Fu Niang said countless times, calmed down, and worked hard together. The first cry of the newborn made Lin Junyan burst into tears, and Yingge wiped the sweat next to her.
, asked: "Aunt Zheng, is she a boy or a girl?"
"It's a little boy! He's so strong and handsome." Aunt Zheng's family was busy picking up the newborn, and Granny Wen touched Lin Junyan's belly: "There's another one!"
Yingge looked at Lin Junyan, held her hand tightly, and wanted to say something, but she didn't say it.
With another cry, Aunt Zheng slapped her thigh: "Oh my, I have never seen such a clean baby in my life. Lin family, you are such a blessing. You have a son and a daughter!"
Lin Junyan breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister, hurry up and give Mrs. Wen and the aunts some money for their wedding."
