Deep in the bamboo forest is my home

After that warm autumn day, the He Family Courtyard had one more regular visitor.

First, he led the shopkeeper of the rice shop around Nanhe, Baisha and other villages, and said that the rice sold to the rice shop earlier could cost [-]% more, and the farmers who were unwilling to take the risk to go to sea were moved.

Then he took the shopkeeper to He's house and sat down for a while, talking about the price and quantity of chickens and eggs.After discussing for a long time, I drank pot after pot of tea, but the result was still the same.

Then, he came to He's house alone to discuss with He Boss and He Xiaozhu about selling lotus roots.Seemingly seeing that the He family's furniture was still old by accident, Mu Sheng casually said, "The Decheng craftsman in the county has some friendship with me. If you need to make furniture, I can ask for it for you."

The Decheng craftsmen in the county are well-known. People in Fucheng also ask them to make tools. The business is one order after another, and the price is not high, but they just don’t have time to take so many orders. , everyone can only drool enviously.

Yang Yan'er's heart was moved as soon as he heard it, but he didn't dare to open his mouth to ask, and could only look at his man.

Boss He rubbed his hands, "Is this too troublesome?"

"No trouble. My family hired a craftsman from Decheng to make furniture, just what you need."

Yang Yan'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly dragged He Xiaohu to make a list, afraid that Mu Sheng would disagree if he turned around.

A short list listed a double bed, two dressers, two four-legged wooden stools, and a suitcase.Boss He couldn't read, so he asked He Xiaohu to read to him, and when he heard that there was one in the suitcase, he quickly said, add another, and add another to Xiaohua.

He Xiaohua waved her hands and shook her head, "Father, I have a suitcase in my room. How about adding a table to my room."

"What do you do with the table in my little brother's room? Ahma decides for you. I ordered the dressing table. The suitcase will be added after a few years." Yang Yan'er still has a word in her heart. Which family is it? If it is a big family, this dowry has to be prepared for Xiaohua in advance.

Well, a dressing table is just a dressing table, it’s better to have a place to write, it’s better than writing on the suitcase every day.

Mu Sheng accepted the order, and then asked what style the He family wanted, the one with the five blessings coming to the door, or the one with the auspicious fruit pattern.

There are not only many styles produced by good craftsmen, but also novel styles, and the price also rises accordingly. Yang Yan'er weighed her own purse. In fact, all she needs is a picture of the name of a Decheng craftsman.Even if it's just a simple piece of wood with the word "Fu" carved on it, it will be different if it is stamped with the imprint of Decheng craftsmen.

"It's as simple as it gets."

"The furniture is for brother Xiaozhu's new house."

He Xiaozhu blushed, Mu Dong's family actually called him Brother Xiaozhu, He Xiaozhu looked at his father, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Call him Zhuzi, Mu Dong's family, my family, look, I..."

Mu Sheng nodded knowingly, "I'll handle this matter."

The members of the He family happily sent Mu Sheng away, and Yang Yan'er even said that this year the ancestors would bless them, and that there would be noble people when they went out.He Xiaohu shook his head and disagreed, "It's nothing to be courteous..."

"How can it be said that nothing happened, the lotus roots that your father worked so hard to grow are all sold to their restaurant, the only restaurant." Yang Yan'er raised her voice.

He Xiaohu didn't answer, just glanced at He Xiaohua who was also happy.The lotus root is sold exclusively to the Mu family restaurant, which seems to be taking advantage of the Mu family, but no one knows that the lotus root is a fresh product, and it will take a lot of effort for the Mu family restaurant to sell it. Master Mu trusted him so much.He Xiaohu frowned in thought.

Boss He laughed and said, this year's silver silk rice will also be sold to Gyeongju Port to earn more money for Xiao Zhu's marriage.How could Yang Yan'er agree to it? Last time, she said that there was a storm and she delayed her return. She didn't know what would happen this time. The whole family was counting on Boss He, so there was nothing wrong with it.Immediately, Yang Yan'er's eyes were red, and she sat holding Xiaosi and shedding tears.

"Or, I'll go out to sea in place of Father."

"No, no, the sea is rough, you can't stand it, and you have to stay at home to prepare for the marriage next year." Boss He wanted to help Yang Yan'er back to the room, the couple said slowly.Yang Yan'er turned her hips, pointed her back at him, and sat on the stool without moving.

The family's joy just now was dissipated, and when they went to sleep at night, Yang Yan'er hugged Xiao Si and dragged Xiao Hua to sleep on her own bed, while Boss He was squeezed to sleep with Xiao Hu.The small courtyard of the He family was quiet for several days.Until Mu Sheng came to the door again and said that the lotus root should be sent there in advance, so that the lotus root can be tasted three days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so that the lotus root can be officially listed for sale on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Boss He quickly agreed, and took He Xiaozhu to the pond to pick lotus roots.Sitting on the only two chairs in the main room, Mu Sheng asked, "Hey, I want to invite my little brother to the city for a visit, and I need him to teach the kitchen about the new dishes."

Yang Yan'er was worried, didn't think much about it, she nodded and agreed, she asked Xiao Hua to go back to her room to change clothes, go to the county town with her father, go early and return early.

When He Xiaohua chose a dress with less conspicuous patches and came out, Yang Yaner wiped her tears and said, "I just let him sell the rice to the city. The whole family, poor and poor, rich and rich." However, I didn’t want anything from him when I got married, so how could I expect him to go to the south and risk his life to earn that little money.”

Seeing her son running in, Yang Yan'er hurriedly turned her back and wiped away her tears.Mu Sheng straightened his clothes, stood up, and bent over to Yang Yan'er, "Hey, I'll take Xiaohua to the pond and wait for a while."

Yang Yan'er nodded, Ren Dehe Xiaohua followed Mu Sheng out.

Mu Sheng put down the step stool, raised the car curtain, and reached out to help Xiao Hua.He Xiaohua shook her hands, put her little hand on the handlebars, and with a forceful arm, she pulled half of her body onto the car board, kicked her calf on the ground, and climbed onto the car board with momentum.Sit firmly and turn around, raise your eyebrows at Mu Sheng, look, I can come up by myself.

Mu Sheng smiled softly, his eyes were full of pampering that he didn't know, and he stretched out his hand to pick up the broken hair wrapped around Xiao Hua's forehead, "Come and sit inside, I'll drive."

"Uh-huh."

Raising the whip, slashing in the air, the horse stomped, swayed forward, passed the pond, and brought He Boss and ten lotus roots and lotus pods with him.He Xiaozhu was sent home.

The next day, as soon as the restaurant's food-tasting booth opened, it attracted crowds of interested people.The restaurant staff used a toothpick to cut small lotus roots, and made lotus heart tea. The teacups were full and lined up.If you are brave, pick up a piece and taste it. If you think it is good, you will take another sip of lotus heart tea.If someone comes forward, the next thing will be easy to handle. Everyone rushed to try the new dishes of the restaurant.

Leaning on the railing on the second floor, the shopkeeper wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, "Boss, what if someone intentionally causes trouble?"

"Did the doctor from Huichun Hall invite you?"

"Please. Just wait in the box on the second floor."

"If someone reports that he has a bad stomach after eating, please ask the doctor to come out to see a doctor and prescribe a prescription."

"What if it's really..." What if it's really the lotus root... the restaurant's reputation has been lost, the shopkeeper said in his heart, hesitating.

"You also ate this lotus root last night, is there something wrong this morning?"

"This, this is not true."

"Since you and I have eaten it, and the guys in the restaurant have eaten it. Everyone is fine, and the person who is going to try to eat next time is naturally unlikely to be fine. Those who have trouble will only be those who deliberately make trouble. Doctor Mo of Huichuntang is well-known. His medical skills are extraordinary, with him in charge, there is nothing to worry about."

The shopkeeper listened, nodded repeatedly, and sighed secretly, although the owner is fourteen years old, he is already mature in handling things.

In the blink of an eye, it was Mid-Autumn Festival, He Xiaohua opened the courtyard door early in the morning, and saw Xiao Liu poking his head in the corner.As soon as Xiao Liu saw He Xiaohua coming out, she ran forward quickly, and stuffed the things in her hands into Xiao Hua's hands, "Brother He, this is from the young master."

"What is it?" He Xiaohua squeezed the thing stuffed in her hand, it was hard, it seemed to be a box.

"The young master said, don't worry if you won't come back this year's Mid-Autumn Festival. The young master is doing well in the school. The young master in the general's mansion is very kind to the young master. The teachers in the school often praise the young master, saying that the young master is diligent and studious. The young master said, wait for him to leave the school. After studying here, go to join the army, become a general, and then return to the village in style." Xiao Liu said a series of words, then stared at He Xiaohua and asked, "You have nothing to say to the young master?"

Uh... say what?I don't seem to be very familiar with Liang Qi.He Xiaohua thought about it, and replied politely, "Study and martial arts should be done step by step, and you can't act too hastily."

Xiao Liu nodded in response, and waited for a while, but He Xiaohua didn't see anything to say, "Just one sentence?"

How many more sentences do you want?He Xiaohua blinked, "Just one sentence."

Xiao Liu looked disappointed, "Okay. The young master told you not to worry about him. He can take care of himself."

I'm not worried about him.He Xiaohua was baffled.

Xiao Liu tweeted at the yard, vaguely saw He Xiaohu walking around, and ran away in fright.He Xiaohua was left alone outside the yard, opening the cloth bag and a wooden box in her hand, and a faint scent of powder came out.He Xiaohua rubbed her nose, Ha Qiu, sneezed, what kind of smell, it was too choking.

The other one is a silver hairpin, peach blossom style, He Xiaohua thinks it is beautiful, but it is not as convenient as a cloth strip to tie her hair.Weigh the weight, it's quite heavy, and it's good to keep it and sell it for money later.

Xiao Liu ran back to Liang's house and reported to the youngest first.After listening to the youngest, he twisted his thick waist and reported to Liang Xiu.The job of delivering things was originally done by the youngest, but he felt that Baba went to deliver things to spread the word, it was too cheap, so he gave it to Xiao Liu to run errands.

Liang Xiu had heard what Lao Yao said, and after reading Buddhist scriptures for a while, Fang stood up with Lao Yao's support.

"Fulang, the hairpin that the young master gave you is quite calm. I think the price is not cheap."

"What kind of money can he have on him?" Liang Xiu leaned on the recliner, "He is not going out this time to be a young master, but to be a reading companion for someone else's young master. The money on his body was intended to help him. Look. He is saving it, and he is not willing to use it."

Liang Xiu rubbed her chest, feeling stuffy for a while, the son who was finally raised, "What did the He family say?"

"I said it, I said that we should proceed step by step, and we can't act too hastily."

Liang Xiu nodded, "This is what I want to say too, write this in a letter." Liang Xiu had a wry smile on her face, the child born in her womb might not listen to her own words, but Brother He was afraid of what she said. Keep it in mind. "Over there at the He family, run more. I'm not feeling well. If you don't go out, you can go and see for me. Keep in touch. In the future... it's easier to talk."

"Yes, Fulang, I know."
