Yingbao carried a few mulberry sticks back to her room, and without even bothering to look after her brother, she instantly entered the cave.
All the crops in the cave have been harvested and piled in the open space in the corner. There are three big piles that have not been threshed.
Whenever Yingbao has free time, she comes in to masturbate, and I don’t know when she will be able to finish.
If she had known earlier, she would not have planted so much grain. Now, the land needs to be plowed and the crops need to be threshed. She is so small that she cannot handle it even if she divides the crops into eight parts.
I dipped the mulberry stick in the pond water for a while, took it out and stuck it in the ground. I looked left and right, and the more I looked at it, the more I liked it.
Golden Ear, in her previous life, she had only seen it once in the Governor’s Mansion. It was placed in a gift box, which was accidentally knocked over by a servant and scattered on the ground, all yellow.
I remember the housekeeper scolded him loudly: "Stupid thing! Your life is not even worth the compensation. The Governor's Office doesn't need a piece of trash like you! Drag him out and beat him! Beat him to death and feed him to the dogs!"
Later, the servants were dragged away and several maids knelt on the ground to pick up the golden ears.
At that time, Yingbao was ignorant and fearless. Out of curiosity, she found two ears from the bushes and hid them quietly. She thought to herself: This is the golden ear that Sister Wen mentioned. It is so beautiful and the color is like gold.
Sister Wen was the sister she met at Wuchunyuan when she was in her teens, and she was also the one who taught her to read.
It is said that her family once ran a pharmacy. Because a nobleman used medicinal materials from her pharmacy and died of poisoning, her family was ransacked, all the adult men in the family were sentenced to exile, and the children and girls were sold into slavery.
Sister Wen said that she was only ten years old at that time and had never seen her family since she was bought by Wuchunyuan.
At that time, Yingbao had just entered Wuchunyuan. She was very stubborn and suffered a lot for it. The sixteen-year-old sister Wen often came to take care of her, brought her delicious food, and read storybooks to her.
Later, Yingbao found out that Sister Wen was the best dancer in Wuchunyuan. She was a very good dancer and often danced in various mansions to entertain the banquets of wealthy families. She could also bring back all kinds of exquisite pastries and delicacies.
Now, no one knows where Sister Wen is, and no one knows where her pharmacy is.
Oh, I should have asked more at the beginning.
Sister Wen's family should not have had any trouble at this time. Calculating the time, Sister Wen should be eight years old this year, and there are still two years before the incident at her family's medicine store.
I don’t know if I will ever meet Sister Wen in this life, but if possible, I will definitely find a way to remind her.
After leaving the cave, Yingbao began to organize the gifts she had bought.
The tangram, the Kongming lock and the little dove cart were left to my younger brother.
Two colorful horse heads, one for Yuanbao and one for Huzi.
Two pairs of silk flowers are prepared for my two little cousins.
She planned to give these three pairs of wooden combs one pair to her mother, one pair to her aunt, and one pair to her grandmother.
As for this copper-headed pipe, it is naturally going to be given to my grandfather.
New Year’s Eve.
Uncle Jiang’s family has prepared the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Jiang Erlang brought his two children, Jiang Sanlang held his twin sons, and Chunniang held Yingbao in one hand and carried a basket of gifts in the other, and they came together to have the New Year's Eve dinner.
Yingbao gave out the gifts one by one, muttering, "Uncle, uncle, and my dad don't have any, and neither do my elder and second brothers. You are all adults now, you can't play with toys."
Everyone laughed.
The eldest and second uncles quickly waved their hands, "It's okay, we don't play with toys."
The eldest and second cousins were not convinced and deliberately said, "We are not married yet, how can we be adults? Yingbaoer, you are biased."
Ying Bao said without blushing, "You are going to get married soon. Your aunt has already arranged a marriage for you."
Everyone laughed.
It was the first time that Old Man Jiang and Mrs. Jiang Liu received gifts from their grandchildren, and they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
The old lady held Yingbao in her arms, calling her a good child and a good granddaughter.
She also carried her into the house, secretly stuffed a string of money into her hand, and whispered, "My dear, keep it. Grandma gave you the most New Year's money. Don't let others see it."
Yingbao smiled and nodded, stuffing the money into her pocket.
Yuanbao came running in, looking at grandma with a wary look on his face, thinking that grandma had secretly given Yingbao some delicious food and didn't give it to him.
Jiang Liu poked his forehead and took out a few copper coins, "Yuanbao, come here, grandma will give you some New Year's money too."
Yuanbao immediately laughed, took the money, knelt down, and kowtowed three times to grandma.
Upon seeing this, Yingbao hurried down, knelt down, kowtowed to grandma, and wished her a happy new year in advance.
The family happily ate the New Year's Eve dinner, distributed New Year's money to the children, and let them go back to bed, while the men stayed behind to keep watch.
As dawn approached, the three Jiang brothers took off the old talismans, pasted new door talismans on each door, and lit bamboo joints in the yard to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.
For a while, the whole village was filled with the sound of crackling bamboos, and in many houses, the sound of bamboo joints popping could be heard.
…
Yingbao didn't sleep well and even had a dream.
In the dream, there is still that sea of fog, and there is still that book.
Yingbao thought about it and opened the book.
Skip the plots that are irrelevant to you and directly look for the names Chen Ying or Ying Bao.
But no, after flipping through dozens of chapters, my name didn’t appear.
The story revolves around Chen Tiantian and her second sister Chen Zhao, focusing on the confrontation and intrigue between the two.
Finally, Yingbao finally turned to the chapter where Chen Changping passed the examination and became a scholar.
Chen Changping told his wife Han that he was worried that his health might not be able to sustain him in the provincial examination, so he wanted to use his connections to get a job directly, and asked his wife to go to her brother-in-law to think of a solution.
Han agreed and went to find her brother-in-law Chen Guanglu.
Chen Guanglu patted his chest and said that it was no problem. He said that as long as he could take care of his superiors and please them, it would not be a problem to find a job for his brother-in-law in the county government...
Just as I read this, the pages of the book turned into paper butterflies and disappeared.
Sakura: …
Well, she knew it would be like this.
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you watch it or not, because you have already experienced it in your previous life.
It was nothing more than that she was given away by her biological parents in the hope of finding an official position.
When Yingbao woke up in the morning, the first thing she did was to go to the cave to see Jin'er.
I saw that the dried golden ears seemed to stretch a little, I don’t know if it was soaked in pond water.
Let's wait and see.
I should dig the ground first and continue planting some crops.
As for the three piles of wheat, rice and soybeans, they can only be dealt with later.
Yingbao ate a handful of Wudingzhi and was busy in the cave for a while before going out to wash.
I have to go to my uncle's house this morning, and then go back to my grandmother's house with my mother tomorrow morning. I'm a bit busy.
After washing up, she heard her mother calling her, "Bao'er, come here, put on new clothes, and go back to the front yard to wish grandpa and grandma a happy new year."
Chunniang also made a new cotton-padded coat for her little girl, with a circle of soft rabbit tail fur at the collar, which was warm and did not irritate the neck.
Ying Baole ran over happily, put on a new red cotton-padded jacket embroidered with bat patterns, and then put on a new pair of green cotton-padded trousers and a pair of colorful tiger-head cotton-padded shoes.
Unfortunately, she didn't have much hair on her head, so she couldn't wear a headband. She could only tie two small buns on the top of her head with a red string.
Fortunately, she had a tiger-head hat. As long as she wore it, people wouldn't be able to see her sparse braids.
