After leaving the pottery kiln and returning to the town, I went to Wuji Grain and Oil Store and ordered a lot of rapeseed oil, as well as pepper and salt, and asked him to deliver them to the village.
Then I went to a liquor store and ordered a lot of wine, which was also delivered to my door.
At that moment, Song Qiu didn't stay in the town for long, so he rushed back before noon and the sun wasn't too hot yet.
When we returned to the village, it was already past dinner time and everyone in the family had eaten.
But Mrs. Lin was in charge of the kitchen, and there was a fire at any time. In response, the food was cooked and delivered.
After eating, Song Qiu took a cattail leaf fan and went out for a walk. Then the whole village knew that it was time to start harvesting chili peppers.
Then, one person returns to his parents' home with a letter, and the other person returns to his parents' home with a letter. By evening, several nearby villages know about it.
The young man in the family is quick to move, and by now the rice dumplings are almost finished, so he has some free time to pick peppers.
Song Qiu took a nap and prepared to go to Zhuangzi for half the afternoon.
Then he came and called Aling to go out together.
A Ling was urged by Grandma Mo to practice Kung Fu all morning, but was crushed by Grandma Mo unilaterally. At this moment, she felt hopeless.
"Sister! Let's go out again. How about we go farther this time and come back in two or three months?"
Seeing her look like a wilted pumpkin vine, Song Qiu couldn't help but laugh out loud, "What's wrong? Don't you wish that Grandma Mo would teach you more so that you can reach the ninth level of the Guiyuan Heart Technique as soon as possible?"
"
Aling pouted and let out another long sigh, "Why is the ninth level so easy to practice? Among the many seniors in our sect, only my uncle has practiced to the ninth level, and she only broke through when she was almost forty years old.
, I am only fourteen years old, and I have finally reached the fourth level, but I have been unable to break through. I don’t know how many years it will take before I can achieve it! My great uncle complained that I had been away from home for two months and had slacked off on my work.
You've given me a hard time today, and I'm exhausted!"
"He also said that if I don't break through the fourth level as soon as possible, I won't be allowed to travel far again!"
Song Qiu was very amused, but he deliberately said: "Then why don't you learn it? The fourth level of Guiyuan Mentality of yours is quite powerful. Most people in the world are no match for you. I think
That’s enough.”
She persuaded like this, but Aling immediately cheered up, "That won't work! Before my master passed away, he regretted that I had only reached the fourth level and he could no longer teach me. It was not easy to meet my uncle here.
, Grandmaster's martial arts are so powerful, I will definitely study hard, try to get the true inheritance of Grandmaster, and practice to the ninth level, which will make my master Jiuquanxia happy!"
"I'm not in a hurry to go out right now. I have to practice hard! Otherwise, if my uncle really doesn't let me go out with him, I'll die!"
Aling cheered up and felt energetic again.
"Then you have to hurry up. After August 15th, I will definitely plan to go out." Song Qiu said.
Ah Ling listened, nodded heavily, with a serious face, and finally said simply: "I have decided! I will tell my uncle tomorrow that I will be in seclusion for seven or forty-nine days, and I will think about it carefully. I will understand it without saying anything.
Break through this bottleneck and reach the next level!"
She just did what she said. She was going to Huang's house immediately. "That's it. You can't see me for a month. Sister Aqiu, don't miss me!"
Song Qiu joked, "I'm busy and don't have time to think about you."
Aling curled his lips and refused, stretched out his paws, and made a lot of noise with Song Qiu, until Song Qiu said, "I want it! I will definitely want it!"
Then he retracted his paws and said, "I'll go and tell grandma too, so that she won't worry."
Ah Ling was busy going to retreat, so Song Qiu naturally couldn't take her out, so he had to ride the carriage driven by Du Chuanfu to Zhuangzi. He also took Wang Chunzhu with him and drove the mule cart to pull the rapeseed oil sent from the town.
These are past.
When I arrived at the village, I asked Lin Desheng to bring six sons to help me count and move them into the village.
At this time, the sun was slowly setting towards the west, and Shunzi and others were walking through the pepper fields, carrying baskets on their backs and carrying baskets.
Song Qiu entered Zhuangzi all the way, and today he chopped more peppers. Because Yuan Cheng and the others had some free time from peeling watercress, they also got busy, so there were more.
Chopped peppers cannot be kept for a long time, so Song Qiu didn't waste any time and hurriedly brought Du Chuanfu into the inner courtyard with him, and quickly sealed the altar with the chopped peppers.
After finishing all this work, the sun completely set over the mountain and disappeared.
Song Qiu washed his hands and went for a walk in Huangjia Village.
After walking around for a while, people in the village will know that they can start harvesting chili peppers.
The chili peppers in the vegetable field were so red that they immediately brought some people to the field to pick them. They picked them and sent them to the village early tomorrow morning.
Don't be in a hurry if you don't have any red ones. If you wait two more days, they will all be collected by Zhuangzi.
Song Qiu came back and told Lin Desheng that he would accept all the red ones, but also pay attention to the rotten ones and not accept them. He also left a money bag for him and asked him to pay the bills tomorrow.
Then he went inside and talked to Zhang Hugua.
"Uncle Hugua, I have something to discuss with you."
After finishing their work, Yuan Cheng and his wife had already gone home. Others were busy boiling water for bathing and washing clothes. There were so many people and there were only two bathrooms, so there was a long queue.
Zhang Hugua, who was behind in the queue, was not in a hurry and was sitting on the eaves steps talking to Lin Dayou.
Seeing Song Qiu coming over, he sat up straighter and said, "What's going on? Ah Qiu, tell me."
"I want to rent your yard for two months, do you think it's feasible?" A doubanjiang workshop in the village is also being built. Although her house is spacious, it is not convenient for so many people to come in and out every day, so she
I just want to rent Zhang’s yard for two months.
When Zhang Hugua heard this, he nodded without thinking: "Okay! No problem! Whatever you say about renting or not, you can just use it! Anyway, your Aunt Hugua and the others all live in the town, and the yard is empty.
It's empty even if it's up."
Zhang Hugua has gone through a big change, and his person has changed a lot. Now he looks much more pleasing to the eye.
"That's not possible. You have to rent it for two months. It can't be used in vain." I lived in the Zhang family's house before, so let's not talk about it. It will be used by people who work temporarily. It is not good to not pay rent.
Song Qiu said and handed over a bunch of money.
However, Zhang Hugua refused to accept the offer despite any words. Song Qiu persuaded him before he accepted the offer.
After receiving the money, he felt embarrassed to be so exposed, so when Song Qiu asked about opening a small door to come over, he agreed without saying a word.
After deciding this matter, it started to get dark. Song Qiu did not stay for dinner, but took a carriage and headed back to Songshan Village.
Ah Ling Lei Fengxing did whatever he said, and he actually went into seclusion without any delay.
Retreating requires quietness and no one can disturb you. It will take seven to forty-nine days, so naturally it cannot be done at home.
So I followed Mrs. Mo to Songshan Mountain.
Song Qiu and Lao Yuan were still a little unaccustomed to having dinner at night without Aling chattering beside them.
After dinner, Song Qiu accompanied Old Yuan for a walk in the garden to enjoy the cool air. There were too many mosquitoes, so he went back to the house to rest.
