"Are you awake? Little slob, Mama Duan made leek and pork dumplings. You like this. Wait for a while, and you'll be eating them soon." Shao Yunchen called out the door and told Qiu Shuang to pick up the meal.
I think it was because Ji Xuanhe hadn't been sick recently, Shao Yunchen had no burden, and started to grow up, and the clothes he sewed last year were a bit short.It turned out that Ji Xuanhe hadn't noticed that a big man was not so careful in details. After a long time, no matter how nervous a person was, he could notice a thing or two.
No, Ji Xuanhe just found out that day, and after a little thought, he knew that Shao Yunchen was keeping money for him.Not to mention the silver in Ji Xuanhe's hands, Shao Yunchen's own dowry silver alone is several hundred taels, and buying a few well-fitting satin clothes is completely affordable.
Even if Ji Xuanhe has been betrayed and is used to watching life and death, if someone treats him well without malice, he still appreciates it.
"Yunchen, don't you have any cloth at home?" The original body only knew about what he owned, and he didn't care about the clothes and cloth at all, so Ji Xuanhe didn't know.Logically speaking, when he left the Ji Mansion, he should bring some with him, even if he didn't, there should be some in Shao Yunchen's dowry.
"Well, there are, but the family is short of hands, and only Duan's mother is a little slow to sew alone. Qiu Shuang and Zhuyi embroidery are not good enough, so they can only do simple sewing. The middle clothes are okay, and the outer clothes can only be done by Duan. Mom embroidered by herself." Shao Yunchen was very clear about what he had in his house, he paused and said, "I have tidied up the warehouse, and there are a lot of fabrics in the house, but most of them are cotton, silk and satin and other high-quality fabrics Not much. You and I are running fast, and our clothes have to be changed every year, and it is estimated that next year we can only use muslin."
"Cotton cloth is very comfortable to wear next to the body, and it is really not so beautiful to make an outer shirt." Ji Xuanhe does not reject cotton clothes, but from the memory of the original body, he knows that as long as he has a certain status, even if he has settled down, he will prepare some good clothes Clothes for the facade.Their family has not reached such a level, so wearing cotton clothes will inevitably be looked down upon.
"A few years ago, the mansion should have sent a monthly bill of silver, and other bills would be brought along with us. Even if the mansion didn't give it, we can buy it ourselves. My health is much better. It's just a few clothes, and it doesn't cost much. .”
"The fabric is still enough now, let's wait until we run out of fabric to buy fabric." Shao Yunchen didn't refuse, but he didn't agree either.Ji Xuanhe looked much better, but with his body, no one was afraid that something might happen.There is still some time before the good materials are used up at home, so I am not in a hurry.
Mother Duan: "Young master, the dumpling fillings are all fresh, hurry up and eat them while they are hot."
Ji Xuanhe looked at the six dumplings floating in the bowl, feeling a little helpless.He is small and has a small appetite. Even if he wants to eat, he can't eat much. If he eats too much, his fragile stomach may cause stomach upset. He is not interested in experiencing it, so he can only restrain his appetite.
There is delicious food in front of me, but I can only eat a small amount. It is estimated that only those who have been hungry can experience this kind of pain.
"Master, just now Zhang Zhuangtou came to inform that we will start killing pigs, cattle and sheep the day after tomorrow." Mother Duan thought for a while, and then said, "I went to the village to inquire, and the villagers would treat guests when killing pigs, but the landlords did not have this custom. We do as the landlords do?"
"Hmm." Ji Xuanhe thought it would be better to follow the rules, and their family's rent would be the lowest in the village, and if there were a few more, it would be out of line.He didn't want his family to become a target and be criticized.
It was time to slaughter the pigs, so it was already very cold outside.Ji Xuanhe didn't feel much about the earth dragon burning in the room.Since the cold weather, Shao Yunchen has been worried about his health, and he rarely has the opportunity to go out of the house.
Ji Xuanhe is not boring, anyway, he mostly sleeps, and when he wakes up, he listens to stories and gossip, practices calligraphy with Shao Yunchen, and reads simple books. The day passes like this, and his life is very fulfilling.
After Li Langzhong went to check his pulse routinely, he changed the prescription for Ji Xuanhe, which was not as expensive as the previous medicine. This was really good news for the Ji family.
Ji Xuanhe finally got his wish to eat fresh beef.Raising beef cattle also needs to be registered and reported at the Yamen, and a small cattle raising fee is also charged.There are no other procedures when slaughtering, just slaughter it directly.
This is one of the reasons why few farmers raise beef cattle.
One of the Ji family's two cows was sold and the other was kept for their own use.The cattle here are much smaller than modern cattle, weighing less than a thousand catties. After removing the head and tail, and removing the offal, the net weight is only seven or eight hundred catties.
Beef is more expensive, and a cow sold to a butcher can get at least ten or twenty taels of silver.It's no wonder that the few families who raise beef cattle treat their cattle like something, and they don't take care of their family members so carefully.
There are only two masters in Ji's family, so much beef can't be eaten up.Shao Yunchen kept most of it, and the rest, some were sold to the villagers at a fair price, and some were used as New Year's goods, and they were rewarded to Mama Duan and the three farmers a few years ago.Only tripe and beef heart are left for launching into the water, and the rest are distributed to the servants.
Yangjiabu is considered the wealthiest of the nearby villages. There are several shops in the village, including grocery stores, butcher shops, and tofu shops. The villagers seldom go to the town if they have nothing to do.
On this day, it was snowing heavily outside.Ji Xuanhe happened to be awake. He stood on a stool with warm shoes on and looked out the window. The flowers and trees in the small garden had long since withered, and only a few evergreen trees were still standing upright.
It didn't take long for a thick layer of snow to decorate the garden in a very interesting way.
"Bang bang", the door of Ji's house was knocked so loudly that even Ji Xuan and Shao Yunchen who lived in the second entrance heard it.
On a snowy day, who would it be?Ji Xuanhe's interest was interrupted, so he stopped admiring the snow.
There was a lot of noise outside the door, accompanied by the neighing of horses. Uncle Qiu didn't answer the door immediately, and asked cautiously, "Who?"
"It's me, Wen Zhuocheng, I'm here to see my eldest nephew." The voice of the person who answered outside the door was still panting, as if he was rushing in the snow.
When Uncle Qiu was in the Ji Mansion, he had been working in the stables, he didn't know anyone who came, but he also knew that Wen Zhuocheng was the young master's second uncle, so he quickly opened the door and let everyone into the house.
It's a hard job to travel at such a time when it's icy and snowy outside.
There was no ground dragon burning in the main hall, so Uncle Qiu asked people to light the brazier quickly, and he accompanied the guests first, Zhu Yi made hot tea for everyone, while Mama Duan prepared pastries and fruits, and his young master and second uncle brought a lot of nursing homes, Be extra prepared.
Jimo rushed to report in a hurry: "Master, Second Uncle Wen is here."
"Second uncle? Why is he here at this time?" When Ji Xuanhe left, his second uncle didn't know the news. This time, he probably didn't see him when he visited Ji's mansion. He only found out his whereabouts after asking. It was only Ji Xuanhe Unexpectedly, he would come directly to the door.
Shao Yunchen helped Ji Xuanhe fasten the cloak, put on the clogs, and put on one himself. They walked step by step, stepping on the white snow, and went to the first hall with a little joy.
Ji Xuanhe hadn't left his room for several days, and walking in the snow today didn't dampen his interest.Among Yuanchen's relatives, only his second uncle could catch his eyes, for no reason, just because his second uncle was the only one who treated Yuanchen well, he would take a high look at him.It is even more commendable that Second Uncle Wen came to see him in the snow this time.
"Second Uncle, it's so cold, why did you come here?"
Listening to Ji Xuan and the soft childish voice, Wen Zhuocheng narrowed his eyes, and he didn't know what his sister was thinking, such a good nephew, could she be gnawed by a dog?It turned out that he didn't take it seriously, anyone's heart is biased, and he can't force her to like him, whoever imagined that he kicked his nephew out of the house after not seeing him for more than a year.
If it's the brother-in-law's family, that's fine. What is the purpose of my sister's efforts to meddle?Wen Zhuocheng thought about it, but he didn't think of a ugly Yinmao.
Wen Zhuocheng looked at Ji Xuanhe in front of him, it was a lawsuit on his head.It's fine if the mother doesn't want to see it, and it's really annoying that even the father's family and uncle's family don't take it seriously.The little guy looks white and tender. Apart from being thinner and in poor health, he really doesn't see anything that makes people feel uncomfortable.If he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it, and stepped forward to hug Ji Xuanhe.
Wen Zhuocheng sized up Ji Xuanhe's whole body, and said, "It looks better than last time, did you change the prescription?"
"Second Uncle, I have changed the prescription twice, and this time the dosage has been reduced. The doctor said that my health has improved, and I will change the prescription when I get better." Ji Xuanhe put his arm around Wen Zhuocheng's neck, every day Being served by others, he no longer rejects other people's touch, "By the way, Second Uncle, this is my Zhengjun, Shao Yunchen."
Shao Yunchen stepped forward to inspect the head: "Second uncle, my nephew greets you!"
Wen Zhuocheng glanced at him, felt that this boy was good, and didn't make things difficult for him, so he handed over the red envelope that he had prepared long ago: "Since you have become Xuanhe's righteous monarch, then live with him well, and don't have any perverted thoughts."
Shao Yunchen took the red envelope with both hands, and quietly listened to Uncle Wen's lecture, without any reluctance.
"Why don't you live in the county town? Life is more comfortable there, is it because you don't have enough money to buy a house?" Wen Zhuocheng went to the grocery store first, but he didn't see Ji Xuanhe, so he turned to Yangjiabu.
Ji Xuanhe didn't want to move, so he hurriedly said, "Second Uncle, it's nice here, it's quiet, and it's convenient if you want to eat, just ask Uncle Qiu to buy it. I like it here."
"Second Uncle, you came at a good time. The farm just slaughtered the animals, and there is nothing missing at home. I'll let Mama Duan fix the hot pot soon."
Wen Zhuocheng had a black line on his forehead: "You bastard, second uncle still lacks such a stutter? You speak as if second uncle has never seen the world."
"Second Uncle, there is beef to eat. You can't often eat fresh beef, and it's not sold every day in the county." Ji Xuanhe tried to make his words childish, so as not to make Second Uncle suspicious.
"Little ghost, I know that my second uncle likes this. You want to starve my second uncle to death. Go ahead now. I'm starving to death." The journey was full of dust and dust, and everyone just stopped to eat in the county town. The elder nephew is naturally welcome here.
"Second Uncle, do you always travel like this? This is not okay, your body will break down after a long time." Ji Xuanhe asked Jimo to go to the kitchen to inform Mama Duan, to eat mandarin duck pot, first serve a few convenient vegetables, and the rest Wait till it's done.
Ji Xuanhe: "Second Uncle, where did you go this trip?"
Wen Zhuocheng: "I went to Changbai Mountain, and I hurried to catch up, just in time for the heavy snow to cover the mountain. This trip was a good harvest, here, I brought you some leather, which is still in the carriage, and I will get it for you later."
I think it was because Ji Xuanhe hadn't been sick recently, Shao Yunchen had no burden, and started to grow up, and the clothes he sewed last year were a bit short.It turned out that Ji Xuanhe hadn't noticed that a big man was not so careful in details. After a long time, no matter how nervous a person was, he could notice a thing or two.
