From farming to business

Not long after Su Dezhi's family cleaned up the dishes after breakfast, there was a knock on the door, and I was a little puzzled in my heart, who came here so early in the morning?

He was taken aback by the person standing outside when he opened the door, his haggard face obviously didn't sleep well last night, "Boy Yu, what's the matter with you coming here so early?"

Hearing his question, Yu Feng showed a wry smile. If possible, he didn't want to bother people early in the morning, "Uncle, the roof of our house has collapsed. I want to ask if there is any mason in your village."

"What?"

The person in front of him stared at him before he could reply, Liu Hefang, who had just fed the chicken and walked over while stroking his sleeves, changed his expression, and quickly stepped forward to look him up, "Are you injured?"

The first thing the other party cared about was his safety, which made Yu Feng feel a warm current in his heart. He opened his hands with a smile and replied, "I'm fine."

Seeing that there were really no injuries on his body, Liu Hefang was relieved. Thinking about the rain yesterday, his dilapidated house must not be able to hold on. Judging by his mental state, he probably didn't collapse this morning, but now I just looked for it, and my heart still feels distressed, "You child, what kind of mason are you looking for? There is still the mud for the roof patching at home. Let your uncle clean it up with you. What is the money for?"

The people in the village are not so particular about it. If there are any small leaks in the house, it is their own height. After a long time, they are good hands.

"This..." Yu Feng was a little embarrassed, he had already troubled them a lot, and this time he asked them to repair the roof for him, he really felt a little sorry.

"That's it. It's decided by my aunt." Seeing his expression, Liu Hefang knew that he wanted to refuse. She waved her hand and didn't give him a chance. Just as her sister walked out of the kitchen after washing the dishes, she gave her a hand. Pulling people to the side, "Take Ayue with you, I have been climbing up and down since I was a child, I can help."

Su Yongyue, who was grabbed by her arm, blinked blankly. Before she could figure out what was going on, she was pushed and told to go to the utility room behind the yard to get the mud.

As soon as the other party gave a vigorous command, Yu Feng lost his chance even if he wanted to refuse, so he could only purse his lips and swallow the words back, paused and said: "Thank you aunt, thank you uncle."

"Don't be thankful all the time. When you arrive in Xishan Village, you will be a neighbor. We will ask you for help in the future. It's the same." Liu Hefang patted him on the shoulder, fearing that he might feel burdened. comfort.

The father and son of the Su family followed him back to the small dilapidated house, and looked at the roof that was missing a hole. It was better than they imagined. There was no problem with the beams and columns, and it was not too much trouble to repair it.

Knowing that Yu Feng must have nothing at all, they brought the ladder and shovel he needed directly, and found a place by the side of the yard and made good mud cultivation to start.

Most of the houses in the village are built with earthen bricks and mud. The bricks and tiles are sold individually and cost a lot of money.

Su Yongyue and Su Dezhi were busy working with mud cultivation, Yu Feng didn't understand these things, so he turned around and went to the stove shed, poured the remaining water in the wooden barrel into the wooden basin on the stove, and carried the empty barrel out. He is still able to do such things as open the door and get some water.

When he stepped out of the door, his throat was a little itchy, and he raised his hand to cover his lips and coughed a few times, and his head felt a little dazed. He guessed that he caught a cold last night, and his body is really useless now.

Su Yongyue, who heard the movement, raised her head and glanced at the back of him leaving, and looked away to see that his father's help was no longer needed, raised her hand to signal to the other party, and went to the stove shed.

Among the things Liu Hefang sent over before, some seasonings were basically considered. He rummaged through the place where the food was placed, and quickly found a piece of old ginger.

In order to save money, most of them will not go to any doctor when they catch a cold. They just boil ginger tea and drink it for two days, and then they will be fine. If not, they will go to the mountains to find herbs. it will be fine.

However, in his eyes, Yu Feng is a "weak" body, and he doesn't know if ginger soup will work or not, but it's better than nothing, and he doesn't think it's serious at the moment.

After washing the ginger, cut it into thin shreds and throw it into boiling water, and then put some basic seasoning into it. Although it is used for curing diseases, it must be swallowable anyway.

When he was done, he turned to a low fire, covered the pot, and let it simmer. He went back to his father who had reconciled with Ni Pei, and helped him set up the ladder.

Su Dezhi had just climbed to the top of the ladder when Yu Feng came back with a bucket of water. When he saw that he had climbed so high, he put the bucket towards the door and strode forward to help stabilize the ladder. He raised his head and said, "Uncle, I'll go up."

Hearing his voice, Su Dezhi looked down and sat on the eaves as soon as he turned over. His movements were quite neat, and he seemed to be doing this job often, "Can you repair roofs?"

One sentence left Yu Feng speechless. If he knew how to repair the roof, he wouldn't have to ask for help early in the morning, so he smiled embarrassingly.

Su Yongyue glanced at him, feeling that this man was getting more and more stupid, the corners of her lips curled into a small arc, and she turned her eyes to see her father busy on the roof.

Apart from occasionally handing mud to each other down there, they couldn't do much else. Their heads and necks were sore from being up for a long time. Yu Feng lowered his head and raised his hands to rub it.

Seeing his movements, Su Yongyue seemed to remember something, let go of his hand on the ladder, turned and walked away, and could already smell a strong smell of ginger when he approached the stove shed.

He lifted the lid of the pot and took a look. His whole body was submerged in the rising heat. He raised his hand to fan his eyes, took the pottery bowl from the side, and filled it with ginger soup.

Yu Feng looked at him with some doubts, wondering in his heart if the other party was hungry?He actually cooks at his place, but then he remembered that when he looked for him, the Su family seemed to have just finished breakfast.

Before he could think clearly, Shuang'er from the stove came back with a bowl and handed it to him directly. The strong smell of ginger rushed into his nostrils, and he subconsciously avoided it.

Seeing him avoiding Su Yongyue, he thought it was because he didn't want to drink it, so he sent ginger soup to his mouth with a stare. After a long time, this guy dare not drink it!

After regaining his composure, Yu Feng realized that the other party gave it to him. It's not like he didn't drink it when he had a cold before, so he naturally knew its effect, so he deliberately boiled it after hearing his previous cough?

The heat of ginger soup floated to his face, it seemed to warm his heart all of a sudden, making his eyes softer, seeing the other party still staring at him with dissatisfaction, not rejecting his blunt kindness, he leaned forward Just took a sip.

Ginger soup is of course not that tasty, but it's not that bad after adding seasoning. It warms up as it flows down the throat and into the stomach.

The person who drank the soup with slightly lowered eyes didn't notice Su Yongyue's unnatural expression. He didn't know how to react when the man actually drank from his hand, and the hand holding the bowl was also a little stiff. return.

While he was hesitating, Yu Feng almost drank the whole bowl of soup. Ginger soup is like traditional Chinese medicine, so don't linger on its taste, it's not that difficult to finish it in one sitting.

Su Dezhi, who was sitting on the eaves, finished a shovelful of clay, lowered his head, and was about to ask the people below to fill up some more, when he saw the scene of his own son feeding people soup, his heart was inexplicably moved.

After drinking a bowl of soup, Yu Feng let go of the hand holding the ladder and wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve. He felt that his mouth was full of ginger smell, but his heavy head felt much more comfortable after sweating. "Thank you, brother Yongyue."

After finishing the drink, Su Yongyue couldn't express anything no matter how uncomfortable she was, she pursed her lips and turned to wash the dishes in the stove shed, but the tips of her ears covered by her hair were stained a little red.

The three of them chattered busyly all morning, and except for the damaged one, other hidden dangers were also painted over to avoid such a situation from happening again. He may not be so lucky every time.

It was approaching noon, and before Yu Feng could worry about how to invite the two people who had helped him to dinner, Liu Hefang came over and said that the meal was ready, thinking that they should be almost busy here, so they came to call for someone.

He was really embarrassed to ask someone to invite him to dinner after trouble, but the other party would obviously be unhappy if he refused.

After thinking about it for a while, he didn't say anything not to go, anyway, now that he owed others more and more, he would pay it off slowly in the future, always being coy and too hypocritical.

After simply packing up the things and washing off the mud stained on their hands, they carried the things back to Su's house together. They met a few villagers on the way and stopped for a chat.

"Boy Yu has been getting close to you recently, does he have any plans?" A middle-aged man glanced at the two juniors walking behind, and joked with a smile, but without any malice.

Su Dezhi remembered what he had seen before, paused for a moment, and quickly waved his hands and laughed and replied: "You don't want to talk nonsense, you ruined the reputation of the two children, and you can't marry a wife and you can't marry a man." Jun, come to your house and let you marry me!"

"Hey, I can't take it, I can't take it!" The man hurriedly smiled and clapped his hands to harass, but it's just a joke, they are all people who know the importance, so they won't take it seriously.

The two of you talked to each other, although Yu Feng understood it, but didn't take it to heart, Su Yongyue was like a younger brother to him, there was no ambiguity between the two of them, so naturally they wouldn't feel embarrassed.

On the contrary, Shuang'er next to him was a little uncomfortable. He glanced sideways at the person with a plain face, pursed his lips slightly and felt calmed down, and stared at the ground with lowered eyes, no longer being affected by the words that came into his ears.

At noon, we were rushing home for dinner, and the few people didn't argue too much, and said goodbye to each other after a few simple jokes.

When she got home, Su Yongyue didn't let her mother do any work, she went straight to the kitchen to prepare food, Yu Feng thought about it, put down his things and followed.

Seeing the figures of the two of them disappear behind the door, Su Dezhi, who sat down at the table in the yard, had some thoughts in his eyes, turned his eyes away and said to his daughter-in-law beside him, "What do you think of this child Yu Feng?"

"Naturally it's a good one." Liu Hefang poured the dry boiled rice into the bowl in front of him, and replied without raising her head: "You are not impetuous, and you know how to be grateful."

It is said that the villagers are honest and honest, but if you really live here, you will understand that this is not the case. Some people have a lot of fancy intestines in their stomachs. They only think about how to get cheap from other families, and their eyelids are very shallow.

This child Yu Feng, after he wakes up, he looks more and more rare. He has a good appearance, no matter what he does, his waist is straight, and his head is not the same as the boys in the village, let alone Behavior is also polite to advance and retreat, and people who are called uncles and aunts are very comfortable.

"Then tell me... is he a good candidate to be a gentleman?" Su Dezhi saw that he liked him, so he tentatively asked.

As soon as he spoke, Liu Hefang understood what he meant, and looked up at him in surprise, seeing that his expression was serious and not joking, she put away her surprised expression, and said, "That's naturally...it's also good."

To be honest, if she really put Shuang'er in the hands of such a kid, she would feel much more at ease. Although he currently has no property, he can be called poor, and the first days of marrying him will definitely be miserable some.

But if he is kind to his family, those are not important, no matter how bad they are, there will be two of them behind him, it will not be so difficult that they can't go on.

They also noticed the relationship between the two juniors these days, Ayue's temper was stubborn and irritable, and when she had to get angry, Yu Feng was always tolerant, begging for mercy and showing weakness with a smile.

Although they dote on their own children, they are aware of Shuang'er's current status in their hearts. They look like men, and it is even more difficult to have children. Those with a little bit of family background are not willing to marry back as regular wives.

Even the Hongwu family that they had considered before had also expressed in their words that they were ready to accommodate women in the future.

But these are secondary to them, the important thing is whether the man can really treat him well, they also think that Hong Wu is simple and honest, no matter what, he will definitely not bully his family.

There is no hope for him now, they have to find a new way out for their two children, Yu Feng is a good candidate, at least from the current point of view.

"Let's look around again..." Liu Hefang thought a lot, and still hesitated, "He has lost all memory now, he doesn't remember anything, and he doesn't know whether he married a wife before, not to mention that he was covered in blood when he was picked up. Clothes are expensive, in case one day you think of something..."

Su Dezhi understood what she had said, and felt that he hadn't thought it through after a pause. At this moment, the two juniors came out of the kitchen with the food, nodded and said nothing.

The two people who put the things on the table didn't realize that they were the ones being discussed. Although they felt that their atmosphere was weird, it was the matter of the elders, so they didn't ask any more questions.
