Bihe respectfully sent Chen in, while Cuizhi and Qingling were talking about packing their luggage.
"I have to hurry up and catch up one or two cloaks for my brother. He must be running around everywhere, and the temperature on the river is changeable. I also need to pack away the girl's cloak in spring."
Qing Ling added: "We need to pack more clothes for a change of clothes. There is not much water available on the ship, and it is not easy for clothes to dry."
"Yes, yes, yes, pack up some fine cloth clothes and bring them out. They are strong and easy to clean."
Bihe didn't want to mention the unpleasant things anymore and joined them in packing the boxes and cages.
Bihe was very excited to return to Piling. She was born into the family, but she was not as lucky as Qingling. Her father and brother did not come with them as wives, but stayed with the Lu family in Piling. This time, she
I can also see my family.
In the afternoon, Brother Zou took a rest and ran over.
"Mom, I heard from uncle that you want a wolfdog, and I want it too." Brother Lao said lying next to Lu Fenghe.
Lu Fenghe tapped Brother Lao's nose, "You also want a wolfdog, aren't you afraid of being bitten?"
Brother Lao shook his head, "Don't be afraid. Daddy said that if I feed the foal carefully, brush its fur and feed it with grass, the foal will recognize me, and the little wolfdog should be the same way."
Lu Fenghe nodded, "That's about it, but raising a wolfdog is not like a pony. You can just go to the horse farm to take a look when you have time. Once you have a wolfdog, you have to take care of it every day. Do you really want to raise it?"
Brother Bao thought for a while and nodded, "Uncle said that wolf dogs can look after the house and the yard, so I will keep one to look after the yard for my mother."
When Lu Fenghe heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. It was his own father who wanted to raise the dog. Shen Nanxun didn't know if Shen Nanxun knew that his own son was raising a wolfdog to prevent him from crying.
"Thank you, Brother Ba, for thinking about my mother. But we will go back to my grandfather's house soon. Why don't we wait until we get to our grandfather's house and then explore slowly."
Brother Bao nodded obediently, "My uncle said the same thing, but Brother Bao thinks it's better to ask my mother."
Lu Fenghe praised, "This is good. What else did you do yesterday?"
"I ate the whole lamb braised over charcoal and it was delicious. I wanted to bring it back to my mother to eat. My father said that my mother must eat something simple. I sure did get some lamb soup today."
"Thank you, Brother Ba, for remembering to bring it to my mother."
"Mom, I want to eat mutton soup and fish soup." Brother Chen is a child at heart, and when he talks about food, he immediately loses the topic.
Lu Fenghe nodded and asked Liu Ye'er to go to the kitchen and explain.
Brother Bao told Lu Fenghe what they had played the day before.
Liu Ye'er pulled a girl in and came in crying.
"What's going on?" Lu Fenghe asked.
It turns out that Cuizhi still has to take care of Brother Lao, and Liu Ye'er mostly follows Cuizhi to help. Cuizhi's temperament has also learned a lot, and she is very stable.
"Girl, the slave came back from the kitchen and passed by the greenhouse and saw her being beaten. After careful questioning, she found out that the man was her father. Now that there is no work in the greenhouse, her father wants to sell her again."
Lu Fenghe asked the girl whose Xia Shang had been torn and had red marks, "Speak for yourself."
The girl knelt down with a plop and said, "Goodbye, my dear. My daughter is the daughter of a gardener in the greenhouse, her name is Xiangya. Her family has not sold her body. The previous master was not always around. The little man's father will grow flowers, fruits and vegetables in the greenhouse and carry them on his back."
The master takes it and sells it, and his life is pretty good."
The more the girl talked, the lower she leaned down, and choked with sobs she said: "Last winter, my dear mother fell ill. She spent money on seeking medical treatment, but she still didn't make it through the spring. Her family's savings were used up and she owed money to relatives. Now, now
When there was no other response, daddy just wanted to sell the villain to the workshop."
Lu Fenghe saw that the marks of being beaten on the girl's body could not be faked, but it was not believable for her to be sold to a workshop at this age.
"You are fourteen or fifteen years old now, have you ever learned any skills before?"
Xiangya shook her head, "I am now fourteen years old. I have never learned any skills. I just have some tea and flower arranging skills."
Lu Fenghe frowned. It is possible for a gardener's daughter to arrange flowers. Can she also learn to order tea?
"My mother was a tea lady in a tea house before. My mother followed my mother in various tea houses when I was little. I often learned a few tricks from Dr. Tea."
After listening to Xiangya's words, Lu Fenghe's heart was moved. Although the few people around her had followed her since they were young, they could only do flower arranging and make tea, but when it came to making tea, they really couldn't do anything about it.
However, after what happened with Aunt Gao, Lu Fenghe didn't dare to accept anyone easily.
"If the Jiaofang doesn't accept it, I'm afraid the little guy will be sold to that dirty place." After saying this, Xiang Ya cried out.
"Raise your head," Lu Fenghe said.
Xiangya raised her face with pear blossoms and rain. When it came to her appearance, Lu Fenghe wanted to praise her.
She still has baby fat on her face, but her peach-blossom eyes are full of charm when she glances at them. This beauty, with her skill in arranging flowers and ordering tea, could make her an oiran.
Lu Fenghe looked at Liu Ye'er, "What do you think?"
Liu Ye'er was filled with indignation, "I want to ask the girl to teach her father a lesson, but how could he be so cruel? Look at the girl's back, the skin and flesh are all torn."
"Turn around." Lu Fenghe said.
Xiang Ya knelt straight and turned her knees in a circle. No wonder Liu Ye'er was so angry. As expected, her skin and flesh were torn.
Probably Xiangya’s father was also worried about hurting his face and ruining the price. Most of the wounds were on his back.
Cuizhi came over and glared at Liu Ye'er, scolding, "You little girl, you bring everyone to the girl, you speculate with her, you can't stand it, just give her your monthly money, find the girl
No matter what happens, they are both well-educated, and the girl has nothing to do with them. It's the Yamen's business to do so."
Cuizhi chased her away, "Go to your room, give her some medicine and let her go back."
Xiang Ya turned around to face Lu Fenghe and kowtowed one after another.
"I know that the girl is a kind person, so I beg her to take her in. I am willing to sell myself to the girl and serve her as a cow or a horse."
Lu Fenghe did have plans to add someone to her side. After all, it had only been a year or two since Cuizhi and the others got married. It was just right to add someone to her family at this time, but she originally wanted to wait until she returned to Piling to explore this matter slowly.
, it doesn’t matter if you have children at home, or you can buy them from outside.
Lu Fenghe did not answer, but told Liu Ye'er, "Take her down first and give her medicine."
Cuizhi also winked at Liu Ye'er. Liu Ye'er could only mix the fragrant buds. She really never thought of letting Lu Fenghe buy the fragrant buds. In Liu Ye'er's mind, Lu Fenghe was the master, and the master was big.
If you have anything to do, go to the master.
Lu Fenghe waited until the two of them were far away before asking Cuizhi, "Do you know Xiangya in the first place?"
Cuizhi nodded, "You know, there are a lot of flowers and plants in the greenhouse. The slave took Liu Ye'er to cut the flowers. Later, Liu Ye'er went there alone. The two children were probably about the same age and they came into contact with each other.
We also got a bit of a rapport with each other."
"Xiangya knew that Liu Ye'er was leaving, and yesterday he sent a sachet to Liu Ye'er. He said that Liu Ye'er is from the North and is inevitably seasick. The sachet can relieve her a little." This chapter has been completed!
