Shen Xuanqing was thinking about something, and he was a little distracted. He didn't think deeply when the herbal doctor said the matter of giving birth that day. Just now, when he saw Lu Gu holding a child, his heart was suddenly touched. He has been thinking about it until now, so He only listened to what those people at the alley mouth said, and didn't pay much attention to it.

Although he didn't forget what he said about buying Lu Gu back then, he didn't take it to heart. What's more, he made an agreement with Wei Lanxiang at that time to let Lu Gu be his husband. It's not a human tooth, and I usually don't think about it at all.

As for Lu Gu's look at him, because he often had such a timid expression, he didn't connect the things in the alley for a while, and said: "If your legs and feet are tired, sit up and I will take you back."

Lu Gu shook his head and said no, he was not tired yet, and since he was far away from the alley, he thought in his heart that at least he could have a meal in Shen's house, he didn't want to be sold out, he was afraid that he would meet someone like Du Hehua again. Shen Xuanqing is different from others, as long as he is obedient, works hard and earns more money, he probably won't be sold again.

So he was a little relieved.

After leaving the town, there was still a long way to Qingxi Village. Shen Xuanqing thought about his hard work all the way, so she let him get on the cart and dragged it in front of her.

Country people don't have a carriage, so they often use the cart to carry people and loads. Some people who earn money by driving carts use donkeys or mules to hitch a cart, which is faster than people, and can run if the cart is light.

Lu Gu sat on the scooter, looking at the tall figure in front of him, he didn't know what to think, he felt that such a Shen Xuanqing would not sell him.

-

When they came back, both the cart and the bamboo basket were empty, Shen Xuanqing directly pulled Lu Gu into the yard before stopping.

Wei Lanxiang, who was sitting under the eaves and working, greeted her. Beside her was a woman who Lu Gu had never seen before. She was about the same age as her. When Shen Xuanqing called her uncle, Lu Gu got out of the car. He also yelled in a low voice.

"Come back so late, are you hungry?" Wei Lanxiang helped Lu Gu take down the bamboo basket, and asked them both with a smile.

"Mother, we have already eaten at noon, so we don't need to do it anymore." Shen Xuanqing picked up the sheepskin, without revealing the leg of lamb inside, and carried it into the kitchen.

"Erqing sold a lot today. I heard people say that you got up early and pulled a cart full of things to go to town." Zhou Yunzhi, the auntie, said with a smile. When the lotus came, my heart skipped a beat.

Not all people with a sharp voice are bad guys, what caught Lu Gu's attention was the way Zhou Yunzhi looked in his eyes when he spoke, there was nothing wrong with it, but it reminded him of Du Hehua.

Shen Xuanqing came out of the kitchen, heard her say this and replied: "Auntie is joking, they are all worthless things, they just look like a lot."

"That's a lot. People say that if you sell it cheaply, you can still get a lot of money. You must have made a lot of money." Zhou Yunzhi smacked his lips, with obvious disbelief on his face.

"No matter how much I sell, all I earn is a small amount of money. How can the big brother earn a lot of money every month doing errands in the town." Shen Xuanqing didn't want to continue talking to her, so she dragged the conversation aside.

Zhou Yunzhi smiled proudly.

Wei Lanxiang's expression remained unchanged, he pulled out a handful of green onions from the vegetable patch, and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, do you have enough green onions?"

"Enough is enough." Zhou Yunzhi saw that it was not too little. She heard people talk about Shen Xuanqing today, so she borrowed onions to come over to have a look. If I can't find anything, I take the green onions and leave.

She didn't know that Shen Xuanqing had already left some food for the family, and they put them in the backyard.

After she left, Wei Lanxiang still looked out the door, and then dragged Lu Gu back to the main room, and said in a low voice, "This is your uncle's aunt, her name is Zhou Yunzhi, and everyone in the village calls you sister-in-law Zhou. Don't talk to her."

"There are also those from Dafang's family. I'll talk to you later. I usually communicate with your third uncle and three grandmothers. Be careful with them. If you have nothing to do, you don't have to go there. Don't tell them, if you hear something unpleasant, just ignore it, and tell me when you come back, there is Er Qing."

Lu Gu didn't like Zhou Yunzhi's eyes counting money when he spoke, which reminded him of Du Hehua, so when he heard this, he quickly nodded and said to take it down.

After Zhou Yunzhi left, Shen Xuanqing went into the kitchen to chop the leg of lamb. Wei Lanxiang heard the movement, and hurriedly told Lu Gu to go to the kitchen. Seeing that it was leg of lamb, she couldn't be unhappy.

Shen Xuanqing also gave her ten taels of silver, and made her smile, and she even liked Lu Gu more and more.

The debts owed by the family were all paid off, and all the money they earned belonged to themselves. After Wei Lanxiang hid the money, she called Lu Gu into the room and showed him the clothes she had made.

I was so happy to come back yesterday, thinking that Lu Gu was too tired from driving the mountain road, and she still had a cuff confiscated, so she didn't mention the clothes, and took them out after finishing them today.

The money for making clothes for Lu Gu was paid by Shen Xuanqing, this time she didn't take any money out of it, and when she bought cotton, she paid [-] cash for it herself, and made two thick jackets for Lu Gu, including tops and trousers. Save your legs from freezing in the mountains.

In addition to the jacket, there were three thick cloth clothes and a pair of cotton-padded shoes. These were all real materials. She couldn't do it by herself, so she asked Ji Qiuyue to help.

Lu Gu tried on the clothes, and they all fit well. The new shoes fit snugly. There is a thin layer of cotton on the upper and inside of the shoes, which is very warm and soft to step on. He seemed to be stepping on a cloud, and the earth was soft.

Not to mention wearing it in the mountains in late autumn, such shoes are enough in winter.

In previous winters, he didn't have thick shoes and cotton clothes to wear, so he shivered and shivered, and he had frostbite on his hands and feet every year. Count on it.

He knew that it was Shen Xuanqing's money, but Wei Lanxiang was the one who made the clothes, so his gratitude to the Shen family poured out again. There was so much gratitude that he didn't know what to say.

It was Wei Lanxiang who saw him holding the shoes with wet eyes after taking off the cotton shoes, smiled and folded the new clothes, put them all into his arms, and said, "From now on, as long as you and Er Qing live a good life, If we are harmonious and beautiful, our family life will be better, we can wear and eat whatever we want, and we won’t be hungry or cold.”

Holding so many clothes and shoes, Lu Gu nodded his head heavily, as if there was something choked in his throat, unable to speak, he could only hum, with a muffled nasal sound.

After dinner, when Shen Yaoqing from the field came back, they ate a pot of stewed mutton, which was more nourishing with some medicinal herbs. Because it was hot, everyone's face was rosy after eating, and they seemed to have more strength.

Gradually at night, the dogs took up a place in the yard to gnaw on their bones. There was no one in the yard, so they all washed up and went back to the house to rest.The days are getting better and better, but I am sleeping in a dream with a smile on my face.

In Shen Xuanqing's room, a candle was lit, the doors and windows were closed, and the two of them sat at the table and counted the money.

Lu Gu put the small cloth bag on the table, and took out five pieces of silver from his sleeve pocket and put it on the small pile of copper coins. He no longer thought about Shen Xuanqing giving him the copper coins, and pushed them all over.

Shen Xuanqing was lowering her head to collect the money, when these things suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, she subconsciously raised her head to look at Lu Gu, wondering, "What's wrong?"

Lu Gu didn't understand, and whispered, "The money is all in there."

"Give it to me?" Shen Xuanqing finally understood, but this is Lu Gu's own hard-earned money. How could he want it, so he pushed it back and said, "Just keep it for yourself, and you have money in your hand for whatever you want to buy." .”

He said, and put an ingot of five taels of silver into Lu Gu's hand, and said again: "Ask me if you don't have enough, and you will never be short of money."

Lu Gu was stunned for a long time, and finally put away the money under Shen Xuanqing's helpless smile.

The candle was blown out, and the room was plunged into darkness. Not long after Shen Xuanqing came up, she rolled over and hugged Lu Gu.

He was just as happy today, except for the ten taels for Wei Lanxiang, what he kept and what he earned before made a total of 29 taels. Slowly accumulate wealth for yourself.

The remaining nine taels and five taels were given to Lu Gu, and he kept more than four taels for himself, and there were more than 200 copper coins that were not included in the scattered silver, which can be spent on weekdays, and these are enough for a long time expenses.

And this time I gave my mother a lot of money, so I don’t need to give it again when I come back next time. The meat in the house is basically his prey, the vegetables are grown by myself, and there is not much money to buy. It is either he or Shen Yaoqing who buys oil and salt. Lan Xiang can also save some money in her hands, keep some money for herself, and decide what she wants to buy.

The night is getting darker, people are living with enthusiasm to move forward, and the days are also rushing forward, which is the best thing in the world.

-

In the evening, when the peasants returned home, the village was full of smoke, and it was peaceful.

Shen Xuanqing took a pheasant out in the afternoon, saying that he was going to have a few drinks with the village chief Chen and the others, but Lu Gu watched him go out without saying anything.

After the meal, he and Wei Lanxiang went to Aunt Gu's house to buy cloth heads and colorful embroidery threads. This was the first time he said he wanted to buy something, and Wei Lanxiang agreed and came with him.

Now that he had money in hand, Lu Gu picked better cloth heads and colored threads.

"What did you buy these for?" Wei Lanxiang asked him casually on the way back.

Lu Gu hesitated, and whispered, "I think Erqing's purse is old, so I'll make him a new one. I also want to make a few sachets, so that I can wear it for my family even if I don't sell it."

He often heard Shen Yan talking about Er Qing, and he would yell along, but he had never yelled like this in front of Shen Xuanqing.Seeing that the purse Shen Xuanqing was using was old last night, he thought about it for a long time in the morning. Although he was still uneasy, he still wanted to help make one. It must be right to do more things.

When Wei Lanxiang heard it, he was relieved and sighed that he was sensible, and asked in surprise that he could embroider sachets.

"My mother taught me, but I didn't do it so well." He said honestly, fearing that he didn't make it clear, he added: "Mother."

Mentioning this, Wei Lanxiang's eyes became more distressed, it's pitiful to see that her mother is gone, and she suffered such a big crime at the hands of the black heart.She has a son and a daughter. Just thinking about this kind of thing makes her eyes sour. A child who lost his mother early has to suffer so much.

She was afraid of making Lu Gu sad, so she said with a smile: "Okay, when it's ready, I'll give one to my mother, she will wear it wherever she goes, and show it to others, our Guzi may be patient."

"En." Lu Gu nodded solemnly. Wei Lanxiang was kind to him, not only Wei Lanxiang, but also the rest of the Shen family. It's nothing to make a few sachets, he has to work hard to repay What about the Shen family?
