Chapter 9 Gift

"Second dick!"

Outside, the housekeeper and the driver came in carrying things. Li Sanzhu hurriedly stopped and said in a low voice: "It's not urgent. We'll talk about it when we have time."

People greeted him outside and said, "It's a waste of money. People in the countryside are not so particular."

The first steward chuckled and raised his hands in salute: "It's all because of the master's instructions and the blessing of the daughter. My young master is about to get better. Madam asked me to come to my door tomorrow and let you have a look."

Even though he is a servant, this person is considered a prominent figure in Yinzhou City. He talks nice things, but we can't take them all seriously.

Li Sanzhu returned the gift with cupped fists, "I don't dare to take it seriously. It's all thanks to your government's efforts to build bridges and provide porridge, and to be kind and generous."

The chief steward looked at Li Sanzhu calmly. He had an honest face and his words were really pleasant.

His attitude became even more polite, "Then we, one family, will not talk about two families."

He saluted again in the direction of Li Qiu Sui and said: "Old slave, I have something to do in the city." He pointed to the people behind him and said, "They are also coming together. Cuiping will be left at your disposal. I will pick you up back to Zhengzhou in the future."

Home."

Cuiping squeezed in with a bunch of things.

The family is small and this person can solve the accommodation problem by himself, so there is no reason not to agree.

He is worthy of being a great butler, and he is more educated than ordinary merchants.

Li Qiusui nodded: "Go and do your work!"

Li Sanzhu sent people out of the courtyard.

Cuiping stood in the room cautiously. The Li family members wanted to talk to each other, but she couldn't go with the housekeeper, "Grandma..."

Li Qiusui raised his hand to interrupt her, "Call me Miss Li from now on!"

She knew what was going on, but she didn't want to hear people call her like this, "You go and settle down with my sister first."

As for letting her return to Zheng Ying, there is no rush yet.

Third sister Xia He came over and said, "Sister, come with me."

Cuiping took a step back, waved her hands repeatedly and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, just call me Cuiping."

Cuiping was taken away by Xia He, and Li Qiu Sui recounted his experience in the Zheng family in detail, including the matter of driving away the maid next to Young Master Zheng.

After Li Qiusui finished speaking, the first person to speak was the fourth brother who was sitting quietly.

Li Changan said: "Sui Sui has done the right thing! Let's go to Zheng's house to celebrate. We don't say that we have saved his young master's life, and there is no reason to be aggrieved. If there is any short-sighted person, just return it. In this way, we will not

Someone will directly make trouble in front of you. As for what they say behind your back, we can't control what they say."

After saying a long paragraph, Li Changan remained sitting upright.

Li Qiusui looked at her fourth brother, who was about the same age as Zheng Ying.

"You're talking nonsense, you've offended everyone, and your sister still has a good life in that mansion? This little guy has bad ideas." Mrs. Liu shouted and went to pat Li Chang'an on the head.

"I will study hard, and when two years are over I will take Sui Sui home, and this servant still wants to make my sister suffer!" Li Xiaosi shouted, holding his head.

Did she save all mankind in her previous life?

Li Qiusui's eyes turned red, he hugged Ms. Liu's arm, twisted his face and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, we have made an agreement. I'm waiting for you to take me home!"

Li Changan nodded solemnly.

Li Sanzhu sent someone back: "I went to your grandma's house every year. Your brother-in-law came to call me and said that a banquet was prepared there."

Li Qiusui nodded in agreement and went to look through the pile of items prepared by the Zheng family.

Including Li Sanzhu, her grandparents raised five children, four boys and one girl.

The youngest son has three children at home, and his daughter is married to the village next door, just across the small bridge at the east end of the village. The family's children also come to the house from time to time, and there is really no shortage of grandchildren to love them.

Li Sanzhu has an honest look. He listens to his wife's behavior at home and outside the house. She is ranked in the middle, which shows how unwelcoming she is.

His memory became clearer, and Li Qiusui knew the ins and outs of many things.

She was happy about this, not only because her cousin Li Changhe could go to Fucheng to study.

The government assigned corvées. Her grandparents were still alive and the family had not been separated. There were many men in the family. In previous years, the grandchildren had not yet grown up. This year, when the corvées were assigned, no one in the family had any honors, so three people had to be taken away.

The place I went to was said to be far away from home, and I had a narrow escape from death.

There are many men in the family, which one can her grandparents give up?

When the clan leader came to the house to talk about this matter, the little girl was sent to his family, and the Zheng family was willing to pay for it.

The corvee for three people costs sixty taels of silver. Only the other families in Shanghe Town can afford such a sum of money in one go.

Leaving her alone would get more benefits than just servitude. In this way, grandma not only did not object to the wedding, but actually tried her best to promote it.

Others only saw the benefits brought by the wedding, but Mrs. Liu was afraid of ruining her daughter's life. The Zheng family lived in a deep compound, and the children of the villagers could not cope with it. If someone was killed one day, the bones would not be seen.

This was also the reason why her parents were able to separate the family smoothly and her grandparents happily agreed.

"Mom, come here and see what is suitable for grandma and grandma. We don't have to prepare meals. We can go to the old house to make meals together." Li Qiusui called her mother.

"We are short of food and drink for you at home!" The words were unpleasant, but Mrs. Liu went over to help rummage through them, "The Zheng family is thoughtful. They are all things that our farmers can use."

It doesn't cost much money but it takes a lot of thought.

Li Qiusui took out a bag of things and wrote on it that it was for his eldest brother and the others.

Pens, inks, paper and inkstones, and a pile of books, including the Three-Character Classic for enlightenment.

The one given to her sister Xia He was a complete set of head and face jewelry. Liu also received a complete set of head and facial jewelry, but the color and style were suitable for women to wear.

In addition, there are a few pieces of jade pendants with good solid colors.

"How much money does this cost?" Mrs. Liu took the thing and looked at it carefully.

The bundles of cotton pastries didn't cost much money, and the old house and the clan shared them. They were valuable and affordable, but what would her family give in return for this package of things?

Li Qiusui didn't take it seriously: "Mom, they should have known what happened to our family. The things brought here are just for our family, so just accept them with peace of mind."

"What do you know about your child?" Ms. Liu rolled her eyes at her.

It would be too petty to go back.

I went back to each house to look for some mountain products, and then asked the head of the house to take his two sons to walk into the mountains and hunt some game to wash away the facade.

My daughter has to stay in someone else's house for two more years. The gift in return is too frivolous. What can I say?

Mrs. Liu cut enough fabric to make two sets of clothes for the two old people in the old house, and also cut one for each of her uncles and sisters-in-law. The juniors below figured out that the fabrics were about the same and cut them out directly, and asked them to distribute them among themselves.

.

A basket of various snacks and fruits, a piece of meat and two chickens are enough.

After getting angry, the two people in the old house valued their eldest son and pampered their youngest son. They liked her much since Mrs. Liu came in, but they really didn't feel sorry for her. Mrs. Liu said harsh words, but she didn't hold a grudge in her heart.

Outside, Uncle Li came to urge people again: "Third brother, third sister-in-law, please hurry up, everyone at home is on the table."
