Man Bao ignored him, turned to Bai Shan and asked, "Are you going too?"
Bai Shan nodded, "Go, I heard that there are a lot of lotus and lotus pods in Huguo Temple right now, and fresh lotus seeds are also delicious."
Man Bao immediately said: "I will go too!"
He instantly forgot the medical books and notes in the system.
The group of three even invited Liu Huan and Yin He who were on the side.
Yin or nodded in agreement, Liu Huan might not go out to play for a long time, so he couldn't think about it, so he nodded again and again.
The three parties made an appointment to meet at the gate of the palace, and each went home first.
Man Bao rushed back to the main courtyard with the basket in hand, stuffed the three wooden jars he had brought out onto the multi-treasure stand, turned around and ran out, but was grabbed by the fourth sister-in-law who came back from working in the garden, and she asked: "Why did you come back and run outside?"
Man Bao said: "I have made an appointment with my friend to go swimming in the lake."
Fang looked up at the sun.
It's still morning, but the sun has already started to heat up, and I know how vicious it will be soon, Fang stared at Man Bao's white and tender face, and was reluctant to let her go out to get tanned, so she said: "Put on the bamboo hat , By the way, I think the girls outside seem to wear hats with gauze when they go out, they still look pretty, and they can also shade you, go buy one and wear it."
But there is no one at home at the moment, so Fang put the bamboo hat she often wears on Manbao's head.
Man Bao didn't dislike it either, and ran to find Bai Shan and Bai Erlang wearing a bamboo hat.
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang saw it and envied, "Is there any more, we want one too."
Zheng on the side: ...
Looking at her son's jade-like face, and then at the bamboo hat on Man Bao's head, Mrs. Zheng opened her mouth and said weakly, "If you don't like the sun, why don't you go out?"
Bai Shan immediately said: "We are not afraid of the sun."
Zheng: ...
He said he was not afraid, but he went to Zhou Zhoulang's yard to look for bamboo hats honestly.
Fang and the others really have them, so they brought them two new ones, and said with a smile: "This place has more sunshine than our Luojiang County, and less rain. We have been here for so long, and it only rains for two in the summer." It was raining, and when I asked the locals, they even said it was normal. So we bought a few more bamboo hats, thinking they would be useful even for working in the yard.”
Unexpectedly, before they had time to use it, Bai Shan and the others used it first.
The bamboo hats Bai Shan and Bai Erlang are also familiar with each other, and they can buckle and tie the rope on their heads without any help. He asked, "Where is Li Xue from them?"
"I went to the bookstore," Fang said with a smile, "the words they wrote now have finally been approved by the shopkeeper of the bookstore, so they picked up the books from the bookstore and copied them back. Today they go to the business together."
Don't look at their family living in this big mansion now, but Wu Wulang didn't hide the expenses from them, after all, he had to come out of the business.
After Fang's health recovered, he discussed with Mrs. Liu, and it was better to cook and eat in the yard by himself, and Zhou Li learned a few things with them of course.
Anyway, this house is big enough, once the gate is closed, it is a single family, no different from living in different houses in the countryside.
As for Man Bao, she is at ease, anyway, she only goes home for two days every ten days, if she dislikes the dishes cooked by Mrs. Fang and the others, she can turn around and eat with Bai Shan and the others;
If you want to eat the dishes Fang's and the others cook, you can eat here, no one forces her.
Because they buy rice and vegetables by themselves, and cook by themselves, the old Zhou family knows the approximate monthly expenses.
And no matter how big the house they live in, the current income, apart from Man Bao's salary, the family really only has a fixed income from the restaurant.
As for Zhou Zhoulang's side, don't think about it for now, no matter how much money he earns, he can spend most of it when he turns around, and most of them are walking outside, and the money he earns cannot be used for them.
The remaining half is kept in Zhou Lijun's hands. It is reserved for his hometown and cannot be easily spent. He will take it back to his parents next time he returns home.
So Zhou Lixue and the others also started to practice handwriting seriously, put away a lot of their impatience, and they were able to copy some simple books.
The money earned from a book is not much, but it is enough for their own pen and ink to spend on their usual study, so Wu Lang's side has one less expense.
Even the Fang family and the Lu family collected horse manure and composted flower fertilizer in a corner of the garden according to the gardener's method, and then planted the entire open space in their yard with vegetables, and some vegetables were also planted in the garden.
Vegetables grow fast in summer, and it's only been a month. Some vegetables can be supplied at home without having to go out to buy them. Even Madam Liu was very interested and went to the field to experience them for two days.
Speaking of making money by copying books, Man Bao remembered, "Yes, it's the first day of June today, shouldn't I receive a salary?"
Bai Shan: "Should the Ministry of Households also take a rest today?"
Man Bao did some calculations and became angry, "They also rested when I rested, but I went to the palace when they were at work. How can I receive my salary?"
Mrs. Zheng at the side heard it funny, and said happily, "What a silly boy, where do I need to go to get the salary?"
She had received salary for Bai Qi, so she knew how to operate it.
She recalled with some nostalgia: "You have to go to the household department when you find time, and hand over a copy of your family's door sticker and your own seal to them. Later, people in your family will come to your door with the seal stamped door sticker." You can get your salary back if you go there, you don’t need to go there yourself.”
Only then did Man Bao feel relieved, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I'll ask for leave to go to the official department on the third day of junior high school. I don't know if I should make an appointment in advance. I have to talk to Liu Huan later and ask him to go back to talk to Liu Shangshu at night. Tell me a word, you have to wait for me on the third day of junior high school."
Liu Huan didn't expect that he still had this role, and he was stunned when he received this task.
But after being dazed for a while, he felt that it was not a big deal, so he nodded, "Okay, let me tell my grandfather, when do you plan to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs?"
Man Bao thought for a while and said: "It's about the time of the third year of junior high school. I should have returned from Daming Palace at that time, and I can take an hour's leave with Chongwen Museum."
Bai Shan found the lotus seeds he wanted to buy, squatted down to pick them out, and said, "It's not difficult, just ask your grandfather to let the clerks wait for a while. What do you think of these? Is the child quite big?"
Man Bao also squatted down to look at it, reached out to take the lotus pods he handed over, squeezed the few ones next to it and felt quite full, so he nodded.
Bai Shan then asked the vendor, "How do you sell this?"
The peddler laughed and said, "Ten coins apiece."
Bai Shandao: "It's really expensive, it's four Wen more expensive than what we bought in Yizhou City."
The peddler said proudly: "My lord, this is the capital, and the things here are more expensive than those outside."
Bai Erlang picked and picked, and picked three, and handed them to Bai Shan for him to pay the bill, "It's agreed that you're going to treat."
Bai Shan then took out a string of money from his wallet, because it happened to be one hundred cash, he didn't want to open it, so he turned to Yin He and Liu Huan and said, "Choose one too?"
