Sign in and get rich in farming
Chapter 316 A New Teacher Appears
Young and energetic, after the initial awkwardness, Yu Hongdou quickly put aside her embarrassment and walked out of the room.
My fourth cousin and Yu Song were each leading a child to pick grapes in the yard.
"Why aren't my two sisters-in-law here?" Yu Hongdou came closer and teased the two babies.
In theory, the eldest and second cousins-in-law should be there. After all, they are guests and relatives. Even if they don't live together, they should accompany my aunt to welcome the guests.
She brought a lot of gifts to share with her sister-in-law and nephews.
"My eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law went to help at the ancestral hall. The banquet will be held there soon. When Songta came back, he said that the village chief had instructed us to prepare all the food that could be prepared. The great benefactor of the village has arrived."
Fourth cousin Cao Gu put his nephew on his neck with one hand, and with his other empty hand, he handed a bunch of purple-black grapes to his cousin Yu Hongdou.
"Oh, I'm really sorry to trouble everyone. Hmm, so sweet. Tan Yanlin, come here quickly. These grapes are so sweet!" Yu Hongdou took the grape, picked one and put it in her mouth. Her eyes immediately lit up.
Just then, Tan Yanlin heard her voice and walked out of the room, so she called him over to share.
The grapes should be transplanted from wild grapes in the mountains. It's strange to say, but when these wild grapes grow in the mountains, the grapes are small but the seeds are big. Unless there is frost, the grapes are so sour that they are deadly.
But once transplanted home, they will not bear fruit for three years, but in the fourth year the grapes produced will be much larger than when they were in the mountains. Moreover, after autumn, the grape skin will be covered with a layer of white frost and will become extremely sweet.
Tan Yanlin had never eaten or seen this kind of grapes before. He took the grapes picked by Yu Hongdou and put them in his mouth. He was prepared for the grapes to be so sour that they would be deformed, but they were unexpectedly sweet.
"There is a good farmer in the capital who cultivates green grapes. They taste crisp and sweet, but I always feel that they lack a bit of grape flavor." Tan Yanlin pinched another grape and put it in his mouth.
"I'll dig some wild grapes and send them to the capital. I'll ask Brother Nine to help me find a place to plant them. That way, you can eat them when you come back. Hehe, by then I should go to the capital to have some fun."
Yu Hongdou immediately found a job for Tan Mengao, who was far away in Beijing and was even busier than Wangwang.
But Tan Yanlin didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all. He was even more considerate, thinking that the Yu brothers and sisters might not be able to get a good house or farm when they came to Beijing. He secretly took note of this matter and planned to write a letter to Emperor Anhe to thank him for "saving his life".
They ate two bunches of grapes and amused the two children for a while, then Xu Da sent someone to invite them over.
"Is this ancestral hall shared by all the villagers?" Yu Hongdou asked curiously as she followed her cousin and aunt to the ancestral hall.
Although there were fellow villagers where she was born in her previous life, there was basically no concept of "clan", and the ancestral tablets worshipped at home were only for three generations of close relatives.
Not to mention Taoyuan Village, most of them were gathered here because of refugees, and many of them were like Mr. Yu. In the future, he would be the first ancestor of the family.
As for Cigou Village... its predecessor was Xifeng Village. The four heads had different surnames, plus an outsider named Xu Maoling, so whose ancestral hall did this belong to?
"It's the ancestral hall of Cigou Village and also of Xifeng Village." Cao Gu explained to his little cousin.
In fact, the ancestral hall is just an external name. In the past, this place was called "Juyi Hall".
There is such a place in every bandit's lair that has "wealth". It was originally used to light lamps and put up signs for the dead brothers and to discuss important events.
Later, Xifeng Village retired from business and several leaders went their separate ways, and this place became a place where villagers gathered to discuss things.
"The first person enshrined in the ancestral hall was Changlin Zhenren. This was Xu Maoling's request. Later, Xu Maoling and Chen were added because they were the ones who gave us the good fortune of having four great leaders."
Cao Gu told Yu Hongdou and the others what he knew about the ancestral hall.
"That's true. Later, the four big bosses went their separate ways, and they..." Yu Hongdou nodded. Indeed, they should be grateful to Master Changlin.
“Later, tablets were set up for them. After all, they are the heads of Xifeng Village. It is thanks to them that the villagers can live and work in peace and contentment.” Cao Gu nodded. Even if the four heads were not good people, the villagers did benefit from it.
Yu Hongdou did not ask any more questions, but turned her eyes to the lamp posts on the roadside. Perhaps she learned it from Wu'an County. On both sides of the main road of Cigou Village, a tall wooden pole was erected every few meters. A wind-killing lantern was hung on the pole, which really felt like a "street lamp".
Yu Hongdou paid attention to this not because it was different, but because under a certain lamppost, there was an old lady embroidering.
There was a bright green light on the top of the old lady's head, which made her white hair look a little green.
With the previous benefits, Yu Hongdou is now very sensitive to the humanoid sign-in location because it represents good things.
She turned and walked to the old lady. Before looking at the green sign-in name, Yu Hongdou first looked at the embroidery in the old lady's hand.
This sight is astonishing.
The old lady had a piece of bright red satin in her hand, and now she was embroidering on it. The embroidery was of a dragon and a phoenix singing in harmony. The phoenix's feathers and beard were clearly visible, and the angles of the eyes, body and claws made the dragon and phoenix look as lifelike as if they were really alive.
With such bright patterns and colors, it is obvious that she is helping someone embroider a wedding dress. Which girl would not be happy if she owns such an exquisite wedding dress!
"Fourth Grandma, it's time to eat. We have guests today, and the ancestral hall is very lively."
Cao Gu's attention had always been on his little cousin. Seeing her approaching, he followed her and called out to the old lady who was concentrating on embroidering.
"Oh~ Oh, Xiao Gu, you scared me, is this your...cousin?"
The old lady, who was concentrating on her studies, was startled by Cao Gu's shout. She looked up and found that in addition to the child she had seen grow up, there was also a little girl. The old lady immediately knew who the little girl was.
"It's the girl from the Yu family, right? We've heard that you were coming, and everyone in the village is looking forward to it." The old lady, called Fourth Grandma, squinted her eyes and looked at Yu Hongdou's face.
Yu Hongdou smiled and imitated her cousin in calling out "Fourth Grandma", and her hand intentionally or unintentionally stroked the old lady's head.
[Sign-in location: Embroidery Master Lian Qiao, do you want to spend 6 points to sign in? ]
[Successful sign-in: Obtain embroidery skill (level 5 15%). ]
Oh wow! Yu Hongdou blinked and gave the old lady a sincere and enthusiastic smile. This is a level 5 embroidery master who can be called an artist!
Or a teacher who can let her upgrade her skills to gain points and rewards!
