The maid named Xiaohuan sometimes wondered in her heart what kind of life my uncle lived before going up the mountain, who was in the family, whether he was married, whether he had a girl in his heart...
After living together for a long time, I gradually learned some things.
Some of the information that Li Yi usually inadvertently revealed made the little girl dispel some assumptions, but she was not so sure about more things.
As early as the night of Qixi Festival, when Li Yi changed very strangely, the little maid already had some kind of guess in her heart.
If the two feelings last for a long time, how can they be in the morning and evening...
She also pestered the only educated sister Qin in the village to explain the meaning of these two sentences to her. She only remembered that sister Qin said at the time that my uncle... I am afraid that he is also a person with a story.
Looking at the picture scroll in her hand again, looking at the beautiful woman, the little maid couldn't help but wonder in her heart, could it be that this is my uncle's former sweetheart
One is a handsome scholar, and the other is a graceful beauty. They are supposed to be the envy of the world. They will be together for the rest of their lives...
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden change, the scholar was hijacked by bandits, and became the master of the village, the beauty sat alone in the boudoir, washing her face with tears...
Although I can't see anything on weekdays, but my uncle's heart is probably very bitter, right
Thinking of this, an inexplicable emotion suddenly surged into the girl's heart, she only felt her nose sore, her heart felt tight, and her tears fell down.
"Xiaohuan, what's wrong with you?"
A familiar voice suddenly sounded from beside her, the girl was startled, and when she turned her head, she saw Liu Ruyi standing behind her.
"Ah, Second Miss..." She quickly wiped her tears with her hand and said, "It's nothing, I accidentally squinted my eyes just now."
"What's this?"
Liu Ruyi looked at the familiar painting in her hand, and looked over.
…
…
After sleeping to relieve his worries, when Li Yi woke up the next day, it was almost lunch time.
Naturally, it was too late to teach the brats, and no one paid him a salary. The motivation to work was really insufficient. Fortunately, it was up to him to decide whether to go to school or not, and there was no restriction.
There was no one in the yard, so Liu Ruyi should have gone out to practice. As for Liu Ruyi, Li Yi hadn't seen her since yesterday, and had formed a habit of her occasional disappearance.
Xiaohuan cooks in the kitchen, and it’s not a big deal for a big man to hang around in the kitchen all the time. Besides, Li Yi himself will get bored after a long time. As early as half a month ago, he began to consciously teach Xiaohuan some cooking skills. In short, you can't just throw something in the pot and cook it like before. Eating should be a kind of enjoyment, not just to fill your stomach.
After a simple wash, he walked to the door and stretched long.
Breathing the fresh air from the mountains, I immediately felt refreshed.
The air that has not been polluted by industrialization, every mouthful has the taste of nature, it is extremely fresh, and it also has a strong-meaty smell
After carefully distinguishing it, Li Yi was sure that he smelled it right, it was indeed the smell of meat.
The smell didn't come from his own kitchen. He told Xiaohuan last night that he had to handle the meat by himself. He wrinkled his nose and sniffed. Looking in the direction of the smell, he saw the brat in Fang's house. He walked over with a huge sea bowl in his hand.
Xiongzi walked up to Li Yi, holding a sea bowl, and said timidly, "Master, this is what Daddy asked me to send over."
Seeing a large bowl of cooked meat in Xiongzi's hand, Li Yi smiled and patted his head, and took it from his hand.
Although this item is not lacking, it is someone's wish, so it is hard to refuse.
After completing the task assigned by his father, the bear boy ran home without even saying "goodbye, uncle".
Today, there is not only delicious rice, but also meat to eat. The smile on the bear's face has reached the corner of his mouth, and his heart has already flown home.
Li Yi was not the only one who could smell the strong meaty aroma. This morning, in Liuye Village, there were countless people standing at the door and swallowing the scent in the air.
In the scene in front of the village, even rice is a luxury, and the people in the village haven't smelled the smell of meat for some time.
And when they saw a few brats wandering around the village holding bowls filled with white rice covered with a layer of meat, they all lost their composure.
Don't talk about pork, just talk about white rice, even the wealthiest family in the village cannot be so extravagant.
A group of tenants without land actually eat better food than the Liu clan who own the land. I don't know how many people stared at it.
Thinking about what happened yesterday, someone finally realized that the things brought back to the stockade by the big man surnamed Fang and others were really food!
A whole ten stones of rice!
For them, this is no less than an astronomical figure.
Some people couldn't help but ran to inquire about the news, and when they came back, they were in a daze.
Zhengchou had no place to show off. When asked about it, Fang and the others naturally told them the whole story without reservation.
When the news got to everyone's ears, it became a certain powerful new uncle who easily exchanged a painting for ten taels of silver. He bought all the meat and food.
After hearing this news, all that was left for everyone was deep shock.
Among them, no one has seen what ten taels of silver looks like. The old Fang's family, who were poor before, can now eat rice and meat. This incident has a greater impact on them.
What I regret the most at this time is probably those women who paid Li Yi to paint during the Qixi Festival. When they thought that the sky lanterns they let fly were worth ten taels of silver, each of them was bleeding.
Putting up sky lanterns with ten taels of silver is probably the most extravagant thing they have ever done in their lives!
And those who were originally from the same family background as the big man surnamed Fang, but now they can only watch others eat meat, have only deep regret in their hearts, and secretly regret in their hearts, why didn't they stand up when everyone united to attack the direct line? On the side of Liu Ruyi and the two sisters...
Of course, there are also people who are secretly thinking whether they should also go down the mountain to rob a scholar, let him do nothing, and just lock himself in the room to paint every day...
But it's just thinking about it. If any scholar has this kind of money-making ability, how can there be such a thing as a "poor scholar"
No matter how jealous and jealous Zhilian and others are, they have to admit...
Liu Ruyi and Liu Ruyi, the two sisters, I'm afraid they really found a treasure this time!
