butcher's little man

After the first seven days of Lianmeng, Li Yiran and Le Geer also went home.Because he was considered short-lived, he couldn't stay still for too long. The monks from the nearby temple chose a time and buried him hastily.

Li Yiran had accumulated four or five hundred taels of silver over the years, all of which were taken home by Lian Meng. It is said that all the bank notes and the like were spent in this funeral, and more than 500 taels of silver were cheated by the immortal teacher. As for Li Yiran's hand, there are only more than 100 taels of silver left, which is said to be saved by patchwork.

Li Yiran stared at the money for a long time, so long that the expressions on the faces of his family members became unnatural, and then he said, "No need, these money should be used as incense money for Lianmeng during the festival."

Hearing what he said, Lian's family took it back without being polite. Lianmeng's memorial tablet was kept at home, and the incense sticks of two or three hundred cash would be burned every year. Since he was willing to pay the money, they would also Just be polite.If it weren't for the fear that it would be too ugly not to take out a tael of silver, they wouldn't want to do it at all.

Li Yiran ignored what they said about staying for dinner. He didn't want to pursue the money, so he regarded it as his fate with this family. As for Brother Le, he would not let him come.

The sky net is restored, sparse but not leaky, sowing evil causes will naturally bear evil results, he waited.

Le Geer stayed at Lian's house for a few days, but now he couldn't stay any longer, as soon as he got out of the car, he ran down like he was having fun, he wanted to go to his uncle and Momo.

But Li Amu stopped him, Brother Le was still wearing hot filial piety, and he could only take it off after Qiqi.Xiaoman was pregnant, he was afraid that Xiaoman would think too much, and felt conflicted.

Brother Le was stopped by Aunt Li, screaming in a hurry, grandma and grandma kept screaming.Tian Xiaoman was cooking inside, when he heard his voice, he hurried out, "Brother Le, you are back!"

"What!" Le Ge'er's eyes lit up, and he raised his face and shouted.Then he pouted, "Mama won't let me in..." There was grievance in his voice, he didn't understand why he seemed to be unwelcome when he came back.

"It's okay, Ah Mu, let him come here." Tian Xiaoman said to Li Ah Mu with a smile. In the past few days, he asked Li Wenxuan what Li Wenxuan didn't want to tell him. He was curious!

Knowing that Lian Meng came to him with abortion pills that day, he was afraid for a while.But at the same time, he also felt that Li Wenxuan's worries were superfluous. Wasn't it because he was afraid that he would have a grudge against Big Brother and Brother Le after he found out?

He, Tian Xiaoman, pays attention to one person doing things alone, if Lianmeng still wants to return to this home, then it is impossible for him to treat him well, but now that the deceased is dead, what is wrong with others?

After being let go by Li Amu, Le Geer rushed over and hugged Tian Xiaoman's leg to act like a baby.Tian Xiaoman looked at him distressedly, feeling that the child seemed to have lost some weight.

Children are like this, they can't hide anything, and if they are fat or thin, they can be seen at a glance.

During the hot filial piety, close relatives are not allowed to eat meat, so how to make up for Brother Le has become a problem.Tian Xiaoman thought about it and still didn't know what to let him eat. He was still young when his grandparents passed away, and he didn't remember what his mother ate for him at that time.

But he didn't know, Li Amu must know, so Tian Xiaoman went to ask him, Li Amu thought for a while and said, "keeping filial piety is strict for adults, for children, you can still eat some eggs and so on of."

The peasant family is not too strict about this matter, but Li Amu has heard such a story, saying that a young man in a rich family gave birth to a baby, and it happened to coincide with the death of his elders. The milk he eats is made of blood, which is also considered meat, so he can't eat it, so he can only drink some rice soup for food.Later, I heard that the little baby died before he was two years old, because his family kept filial piety for another year for the sake of filial piety.

The outside world is praised by everyone, but the child is pitiful...

Of course Brother Le would not be treated like this, so Tian Xiaoman went to steam him two egg custards as soon as he yelled that he was hungry, and he licked the spoon as much as he ate.His parents don't know how to make food for the children, the food is hard and the food is not delicious, Brother Le has been living on pastries for the past few days, that's why he is so greedy for food.

Tian Xiaoman really wanted to get him some more food, but it was almost noon, so he couldn't eat too much now.

Although Brother Le still had a lot to say, he was very obedient. He took off his bib and ran out to play.

After Li Yiran returned to the study, looking at the shelves full of books, he felt a little bit sad. He had already resigned from his position as master when Uncle Lian Meng came.Lianmeng's uncle readily agreed.

First of all, he knew that Li Yiran's ambition was not here, and if one day he could leap into the dragon's gate, why not sell him now?

Secondly, he has already gained a firm foothold in the provincial capital. The provincial capital has a large number of talents. He has cultivated several cronies. Li Yiran is leaving at this time, just to make room for them.

Thirdly, he also knows a little about the cause of Meng's death, and both sides have grievances, so it's better to take advantage of him to bring it up and push the boat forward, so as not to become a villain.

It takes a lot of money to go to Beijing to rush for the exam, and they are not far from the capital, so it will take ten days and a half months.Chunwei is set in mid-April, and he should have gone there in mid-March any later.

Those who come and go will have to stay in the capital for a few months, and the price of goods in the provincial capital is already considered high, so the capital can be imagined.He has already caused so much trouble for the family, and he has no face to beg for silver taels anymore.

But it is not his style to give up easily, so Li Yiran decided that after the market opens on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he will look for a job. If he can save up the silver, he can still go there then.

……

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is a Lantern Festival, and the Lantern Festival will be held in Anyang County, and Tian Xiaoman goes there every year.

He doesn't know any words, and he doesn't know how to guess riddles. He usually just stands by and listens to others, and then he pays two dollars for a lantern to carry.But that's it, he has a lot of fun every year, because there are many stalls selling Lantern Festival on the street, and they taste very good.

Tian Xiaoman also wanted to go this year, but was brutally rejected by Li Wenxuan, saying that he just had a baby, what should he do if he was squeezed out when he went out?Of course, as soon as he said this, Li Amu chased him and beat him a few times, saying that he didn't say good things when he was a Chinese New Year senior.

But Li Amu also agreed, but he was not as straightforward as Li Wenxuan said.

What really made Tian Xiaoman decide was that Le Geer couldn't go this year, and he couldn't go out to participate in any activities during the festival.For his young heart, Tian Xiaoman decided to spend the Lantern Festival at home this year.

But Tian Xiaoman will never forget the benefits he should have. He told Li Wenxuan to buy him some ingredients for making Yuanxiao, and then asked him to buy some materials for making lanterns. He wanted to hang many lanterns at home.

Knowing that Tian Xiaoman gave up the idea of ​​going to the county town to crowd people, Li Wenxuan would agree to any request he made. Without saying a word, he set up the carriage and left, as long as he didn't go out to crowd people, Li Wenxuan thought with lingering fear, Tian When Xiaoman went shopping, ordinary people couldn't hold him back.

After Li Wenxuan left, Tian Xiaoman looked in the kitchen and found that the glutinous rice flour wrapped in Yuanxiao was gone, so he took a small bag of glutinous rice to go to Ayun's house to grind it out.

Li Amu happened to be away, so Tian Xiaoman took the bag and led Brother Le to go by himself.

As soon as he left the house, he found Liu Xilin walking towards him. He knew that Brother Le had been back for a few days, but his grandma always took him to visit relatives these days, so he had no time to find Le brother to play.

No, he finally didn't have to go out today, he immediately went out to play with Brother Le.

"Teacher, Brother Le!" Liu Xilin also spotted them, calling and running over.

"Hey, boy Lin, come and play with Brother Le!" Tian Xiaoman thought, just in time, let boy Lin take Brother Le to play, save the boring of grinding rice.

"Well," Liu Xilin nodded, for some reason, he was always a little shy in front of Tian Xiaoman.

"Then you go and play!" Tian Xiaoman held Brother Le's hand for him, ready to let them go.

Unexpectedly, Brother Le just stayed where he was, "I want to play with Momo!"

"Aren't you going to play, I'm going to grind rice!"

"I'm going to grind rice too!" Brother Le knew that this was for making Yuanxiao, he hadn't eaten it yet!

"Then..." Tian Xiaoman looked at Liu Xilin, and Liu Xilin said immediately, "Then I'll take Brother Le and follow Xiaoman, you go!"

"Okay!" Tian Xiaoman had no objection, and the three of them left together.

When he came to Fu Yun's house, he found that there were many people who came to grind rice to make Yuanxiao. Tian Xiaoman did the math and felt that there was still more to wait for!It would be great if Li Wenxuan was here, Tian Xiaoman thought so, completely forgetting that he just drove Li Wenxuan to go shopping.

With a big belly, Fu Yun saw Tian Xiaoman coming, so he hurriedly stood up to greet him. He also saw the things Le Geer was carrying, but he thought it was nothing. Not long ago, a distant relative of his passed away. Eating wine.

Tian Xiaoman picked up the bag, greeted Liu Xilin and Brother Le, and went to him.

There was a wall between the place where the tofu was ground and where they usually lived. After Tian Xiaoman went around, he found that Fu Yun was holding a dustpan outside, filled with a lot of scraps of cloth, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Tian Xiaoman picked up a small hydrangea spliced ​​out of cloth, shook it in his hand, and asked, "Ah Yun, what is this for?"

Fu Yun packed a plate of refreshments and came out. Hearing Tian Xiaoman's question, he smiled and said, "I'm just playing around. Anyway, I can't do anything now. Do more. When the child comes out, I can play for him."

Tian Xiaoman looked at the dustpan again, and found that besides the little hydrangeas, there were also some little purses, little rabbits and the like, which looked very cute.

Fu Yun greeted Liu Xilin and Le Geer to eat, and they each took something to eat after getting Tian Xiaoman's permission.

Tian Xiaoman thought for a while and said, "Ah Yun, let me do it with you tomorrow, okay?"

"Of course it's good. I'm feeling bored and panicking. I have to smile secretly if I have one more person to accompany me." Ayun smiled and his eyes were crooked. Tian Xiaoman thought he was really good-looking, um, he was as good-looking as himself!

Tian Xiaoman thought to himself, I don't want to do it for nothing, I will make it for my doll at home after I learn it.As he thought about it, he also laughed. The two looked at each other and smiled. Liu Xilin and Le Geer, who were eating dried sweet potatoes, said they had no idea what they were laughing at.

"By the way, Xiaoman, are you here to grind rice for Yuanxiao?"

"Yes, but there are so many people..."

"Why don't you put the things here, and when it's your turn, I'll ask my head to take them out for you to grind, and then I'll send them to you then?"

"No, no, no," Tian Xiaoman waved his hands, how could he have the nerve to be so busy? "I'll be fine if I sit a little longer!"

Since he said that, Fu Yun didn't force it, he was really bored and panicked, just in time to talk.The two adults were gossiping, Liu Xilin and Le Geer were already full, and were playing with the little shuttlecock Fu Yun gave...
