Doomsday Farmhouse Tour

Bran, bean flour, and corn flour are mixed with fresh fodder in a huge iron pot and are constantly boiling and stirring. The white steam seeps out a thin layer of sweat on the hot forehead in the slightly cold spring day.The hired workers transported the excrement out in buckets, ready to be piled into the dug earth pits to be used as fertilizer for watering the ground.Seeing the bright yellow chicken cub grow new wings, both Lu and Zheng's families were overjoyed.Go through the initial dangerous period, and you should not go wrong if you are more careful on weekdays.

"Ah, I said that I cut off the chicken's new wings in a few days, so as not to fly out of the fence." Chang'an worked with Zheng's father to put the cooked chicken food in a cool place, and delivered lunch with just now. Lu Xiao said.Hearing this, Lu Xiao nodded and asked the workers to wash their hands and prepare for meals. In addition to normal pickles and boiled vegetables, they brought a boiled egg for each person.This was suggested by Lu Xiao. Long-term workers do all physical work, and it would be a hassle to find someone if they were really exhausted.What's more, his family only employs three long-term workers, and adding an egg a week is not unbearable.

The long-term worker looked at the egg and was a little moved but didn't say anything, just winked his eyes silently.Lu Xiao watched him stuff the egg into the rag bag beside him, but said nothing.

"Qian Zhuang's daughter-in-law is pregnant, so she should have brought her back to his daughter-in-law." Changan saw that Lu Xiao didn't intend to stop him at all, and lowered his voice.After hearing this, Lu Xiao took a second look at the man. Originally, the eggs were for Qian Zhuang... As for whether he eats it himself or brings it home to his relatives, it has nothing to do with him.

Qian Zhuang fled to Lujia Village three years ago when there was a severe drought in the north.I wandered all the way to Lujia Village, and my money was exhausted long ago.Qian Zhuang was originally an orphan with no name and no surname in the north, and he relied on his strength to get by.A severe drought forced him to leave his hometown, and when he arrived in Lujia Village, no matter how tough a man was, he couldn't bear it.Fortunately, the village was relatively rich at that time, Qian Zhuang and strong.He works for free and doesn't need wages to get a lunch, so many people hire him.After slowly recovering, Qian Zhuang went to work in a distant mine.After working as a miner for nearly two years, Qian Zhuang finally bought a field in Lujia Village and settled down.His daughter-in-law is also a poor person, she was sold out by her family.At first it was not clear how, but later his wife might have been moved by Qian Zhuang... cut off contact with her natal family, and lived her life with all her heart.Although the small days are not rich, they are better than being stable...

Lu Xiao was quite accepting of buying a daughter-in-law. After all, it was quite normal for people to sell themselves as slaves in ancient times.If you can't support them, you can earn a living if you sell them.

"Where did you hear it from?" Lu Xiao smiled and stuffed a piece of potato into Chang'an's mouth. Except for necessary farm work, Chang'an didn't like to go out, let alone gossip about the neighbors.

Chang'an smiled embarrassedly, these were told to him by his good friends before they got married.It is indeed embarrassing and sympathetic for the brother of Qian Zhuang's family to be sold by his mother's family, but Qian Zhuang bought him and treated him sincerely...in fact, he is also lucky.For a village like theirs, which is relatively well-to-do and considered to be in good weather, there is absolutely no incident of selling children and daughters in recent years, otherwise Chang'an would not have heard of it.

Did he sympathize with the pregnant brother?Lu Xiao was silent for a while, understanding what Chang An said in a low voice.With his own temperament, he didn't care what happened to Qian Zhuang's family.It was Qian Zhuang's daughter-in-law who was pregnant and not his... There are too many facts about Dou Michou and Sheng Mien.

In fact, Chang An didn't just sympathize with Qian Zhuang and his wife, but more importantly, he really wanted a child that belonged to him and Lu Xiao.Lu Xiao knows all about the good villagers in Chang'an, but Chang'an himself has never had children.Especially after Lu Xiao became famous, there were more gossips, even though they had been married for less than half a year, there were still a lot of these annoying words.It's just that Chang'an knows about these words, does Lu's father know, the Zheng family knows that only Lu Xiao doesn't.Lu Xiao had three months to go to the town to take the Juren examination, but it was a world of difference just one step away.No matter who it is, they are unwilling to say that these gossips among the neighbors will affect Lu Xiao.What can Chang'an do, except listen to my aunt's peace of mind and try to conceive a child as early as possible... There is no other way at present.Today, Chang'an pays more attention to these pregnant women who are pregnant with children, and even softens their hearts.

"Tell Ah Mo tomorrow, get some eggs and send them over." Lu Xiao didn't understand Chang'an's entanglement, but he was still willing to spoil his daughter-in-law a little bit.It's too eye-catching to send money, but it's okay to send some needed eggs and flour.

Chang An was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Lu Xiao to agree so soon.Then he realized that he had influenced Lu Xiao, and immediately became happy.Even if those people outside chewed off the root of their tongues, Lu Xiao still belonged to him.As for the kid...he...he's trying a little.

Lu Xiao stretched out his hand and squeezed Zheng Changan's hand holding the rice bowl. Today's daughter-in-law seems to be very happy?

...

After being haunted by Chang'an's unexpected enthusiasm for half a month, Lu Xiao feels refreshed every day.On this day, Father Lu fed the donkey early and put it on the rope of the wooden cart.Lu Xiao, who just got up, was very embarrassed, and there was nothing he could do if his wife was too enthusiastic.

Lu Xiao is going to meet Wei Xun in the county today. For now, Lu Xiao, the biggest source of income, will not neglect his status.There are more and more things, and it is extremely important to improve Chang'an's knowledge.After telling Father Lu, Lu Xiao took Chang'an away.

As a brother, Chang'an has never been to the county except when he was young, and the last time he came to pick up Lu Xiao was when the Spring Festival ended.At that time, Lu Xiao took the exam for five days in a row, and he was so distressed that he didn't have time to visit the county town.

As usual, Lu Xiao went to Ruyi Winery first, and Zheng Dahai was instructing the staff of the winery to carry the drinks.Although Zheng Dahai doesn't know how to settle accounts, he remembers to repeat it firmly to Chang'an every time he sells a jar of wine.

"My boss is here, hurry up...sit inside." The shopkeeper of the wine shop has sharp eyes, and Zheng Dahai greeted Lu Xiao before he saw the shopkeeper.Lu Xiao can only be regarded as the second owner of the wine shop, and Wei Xun is not there, and he doesn't want to call another second to help others.

"Your business is pretty good..." Lu Xiao actually didn't come here very often, mostly because of Zheng Dahai's description.After meeting the shopkeeper today, I realized why Zheng Dahai said that he had nothing to do with it. Naturally, Zheng Dahai couldn't beat such a shrewd shopkeeper.Fortunately, Lu Xiao didn't plan to control the winery, and Wei Xun was also a smart person who never did unnecessary things.

"Thanks to your luck, the wine in our wine shop is really selling well. It's just that it's spring now, and several recipes can't be made..." The shopkeeper of the wine shop said euphemistically that he wanted new recipes. Fang Zi also wants to ask Wei Xun for credit.Although the shopkeeper is shrewd, it's a pity that his eyelids are a little shallow, Lu Xiao secretly commented in his heart.Shallow eyelids have the advantages of shallow eyelids, so I casually wrote a new prescription for him.

He chatted with the shopkeeper for a while before leaving. When he left, Zheng Dahai explained a few words and went to send Lu Xiao and Chang'an off.

"This shopkeeper is shrewd but short-sighted. Don't conflict with him." Lu Xiao whispered to the people around him after seeing how close the winery was. The shopkeeper must be dissatisfied with the same winery as Zheng Dahai.Otherwise, he wouldn't be suppressing Zheng Dahai everywhere, but he didn't know if it was Wei Xun's intention or his own.If Wei Xun meant it, he didn't need to let Zheng Dahai suffer this kind of ostracism... He has a lot of prescriptions, and even if he has fame, he can do business alone.

Although Zheng Dahai didn't understand why Lu Xiao tolerated the shopkeeper so much, he knew that his brother-in-law had his own ideas, so instead of getting to the bottom of the question, he responded repeatedly.The three of them walked all the way to Jin Yuxuan before Zheng Dahai left.

Lu Xiao entered Jin Yuxuan on the front foot, and Wei Xun arrived on the back foot, bringing the two children who had met once when they got married.Wei Yan is already ten years old during the Chinese New Year, and his words and deeds are becoming more and more tactful.Wei Rui has also reached the age of elementary school, and he is obviously quieter.

"Why didn't the county let you know when my younger brother came, so that I could have a good get-together with food and drinks in Linjianglou..." Wei Xun was as enthusiastic as ever, even a little more eager than usual.Lu Xiao glanced at the two children in front of him if he felt it, thinking about it.

"It's just that I took my wife out for a stroll and didn't tell my brother. Since I got married, I have worked hard for me and have not come to the county." Lu Xiao introduced Chang'an to Wei Xun, Wei Xun was slightly stunned, and then introduced himself naturally and enthusiastically.

"It should be, it should be..." Wei Xun saw that Lu Xiao still called himself a brother, and the people in front of him did not despise him because of his fame.My plan must still have a great possibility of success...

"Look for yourself first, I have something to say with my brother..." Lu Xiao tilted his head and instructed Chang An, and Chang An nodded hesitantly.Jin Yuxuan's things were not cheap, and he was still a little trembling in his heart.It's just that he doesn't want to show timidity in front of outsiders, so he insists on it. If he is laughed at by others, it will not only lose his own face.

Wei Yan looked at his father and then at Lu Xiao, holding his younger brother with one hand and directing the shopkeeper to fetch the new goods for Chang'an to see.Chang An was stunned for a moment, surprised by Wei Yan's precocity, and seeing Wei Rui with a pink and innocent face, he couldn't help softening his brows and eyes.

Lu Xiao was playing Tai Chi with Wei Xun while scrutinizing the two children. Wei Yan was obviously trying to curry favor with his wife.The children of ordinary rich merchants are just ten years old, and they are far from being able to hide their emotions as they like.

"My dear brother, I don't know. There are too few scholars like you who can treat merchants like me equally. Last month, my son Wei Yan had a conflict with the students of the academy. The master said it was Yan'er's fault without even asking." Wei Xun is not a person who likes to speak ill of others. He is a businessman and naturally knows the truth that disaster comes from his mouth.It's just that the master did too much, he really didn't want his son to be educated under him.It's just that without the master, other scholars are not much better.In the end, after much deliberation, only Lu Xiao was suitable...

The other masters are just children, so in terms of talent and knowledge, they are naturally inferior to Lu Xiao who is already a scholar and may even be a juren.Moreover, Lu Xiao worked with him to run the winery, so naturally he would not despise his children like other masters.He didn't ask Lu Xiao to take a high look at his children, it was enough to treat them equally.The only difficulty is how to get Lu Xiao to agree...

Lu Xiao knew what Wei Xun was thinking, but he didn't want to accept apprentices.If he accepts apprentices, Wei Yan and Wei Rui will still live in his own house... So, wouldn't it be harder for Chang An and Ah?It's just that rejecting Wei Xun needs a more suitable reason...

"If the virtuous brother thinks it's hard for the father, I can ask the cook to help the virtuous brother's house." Wei Xun also took great pains for his son, and tried his best to solve all the problems Lu Xiao raised.In the end, Lu Xiao couldn't find a reason to refuse, and most importantly, he didn't want to make trouble with this person.

Chang'an liked the two children very much, but he was always docile and was frequently told by Zheng Mo to follow Lu Xiao as far as possible, so naturally he wouldn't say much at the moment.Wei Yan was very happy looking at Chang'an, even if his father's friend didn't let go, at least the person in front of him still liked him and his younger brother.

"Since my elder brother trusts me so much, Lu Xiao naturally wants to take care of me." Although Lu Xiao didn't want to agree, but since he agreed, he still had to take it seriously. He called the two children to his side and asked carefully for a long time before agreeing.Wei Xun immediately beamed with joy, and repeatedly asked the shopkeeper to wrap Jin Yuxuan's good things.For this matter, Lu Xiao firmly refused.

It's fine on weekdays, but since I decided to accept apprentices, I wanted to form a good relationship.With so many benefits, what does the child in front of him think?If it gets out, how much gossip will be said about these two children.

After Lu Xiao refused, he euphemistically reminded Wei Xun to pay more attention to reputation for the sake of the two children.Wei Xun was greatly moved after hearing this, and repeatedly expressed his understanding.

"You know at my house, it's barely enough to squeeze these two boys and a cook. Those maids and servants are fine, and they will come to pick them up as soon as the spring is over after three months... It's just that you have to know how to dress at that time It's better to fold the quilt."

Lu Xiao's request was completely reasonable, and Wei Xun quickly agreed.The two children also nodded, and Chang An distributed some of the snacks he bought earlier to Wei Yan and Wei Rui.Wei Yan squeezed the snack, his eyes were reddish.The Wei family is rich, and they don't like these snacks much on weekdays... just thinking that they are gifts from the teacher's wife, I can't help but be happy. It turns out that not all masters look down on them.

Chang'an coaxed the two children, and Lu Xiao gave Wei Xun a new idea.The few people chatted happily, and it wasn't until after noon that Wei Xun remembered that he had invited Lu Xiao and his wife to the nearest Linjiang Tower before lunch.

The author has something to say:

Wei Xun is a very important supporting role. He is a cunning businessman and more of a father who is willing to give everything for his children, even throwing away his dignity.

In addition, I would like to ask everyone when is the right time for Changan to get pregnant?Pre-apocalypse or post-apocalypse?
