At the end of April, the weather became completely warm. Everyone took off their thick cotton clothes and put on spring clothes.
As the funeral period expires for two months, many people have recently started talking about relatives.
From talking to getting married, it can take more than a month at the earliest, so it will take a few days for two months.
Ding Guangcheng has recently started to find his sister Zhang Luo's husband's house.
I didn't think about it, almost all of them were from people outside ten miles and eight villages. It would take a long time to come back in an ox cart.
Everyone thought it was because of the turmoil a year ago and was afraid that people would know it, so they didn't ask too much.
However, Jiang Ju didn't laugh or like to squeak much anymore when he started working recently.
Everyone saw the abnormal performance, but Lin Su ignored it.
Everyone is an adult, and if this attitude is not well adjusted, it is her problem.
The careful Jiang Shulian also discovered that she took advantage of her free time to go to the toilet and happened to be with Jiang Ju.
After walking for a while, he couldn't hold back, and asked kindly.
"Guangcheng daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you lately?"
"Ah? What's wrong with the second sister-in-law?" Jiang Ju thought about something, shaking his mind.
Jiang Shulian gently shook her head, and asked pretendingly.
"It's okay, just ask why you don't like talking lately. Is it because of your sister-in-law's marriage?"
It seems that this is the only reason that can make her not speak and feel depressed.
Jiang Ju looked at Jiang Shulian who was warm-hearted, and said with a heavy "Oh".
"Not because of her marriage, but because of her."
Naturally, she was talking about Ding Yingzi, but she didn't know exactly why.
The two of them came out, and while walking back, Jiang Ju talked about the bad news at home.
It turned out that since the three of them came to work in an early shop, the family even saw money for work.
But after calling Yingzi and telling him to kiss Jiang Ju, Jiang Ju found out that the wages of a few of them were often less.
Not many, just two or three.
Do this once, do this twice, and if you do this more often, you will find something wrong.
"... It's not certain that she took it, but who was it... We can also think of it. Second sister-in-law, you know the situation in my family, there are only a few people. My mother-in-law only takes care of the children and cooks for us, so it is impossible to get money. "
"The iron egg is also small, and I don't even know how to take the copper plate out to squander. The two brothers of Guangcheng and their brothers were together when they left work, and it could not be Guangyu. I thought about it, and it seemed that it was her."
When Jiang Shulian heard Jiang Ju say this, she nodded clearly.
To be honest, Yingzi is indeed suspected.
It is not impossible to say that you will get married after you get married, and to sneak some dowry for yourself.
But after all, the money was earned by others. She didn't go out to work or help. There was really no reason to accompany her more, not to mention that the family didn't have that condition.
Jiang Shulian looked at Lin Su who was kneading the dough, thought for a moment, and said.
"Otherwise, you can tell Chuanzi's family that the three of you don't receive the most recent wages, but they are here."
"Can you?" Jiang Ju was a little worried.
Jiang Shulian smiled and nodded, and said.
"It's definitely okay, don't worry."
The two went back to wash their hands and continued to work.
At a quarter hour ago, the last batch of guests was finally sent away, and everyone started cleaning.
Lin Su found out that it was okay, so he confided in the food of a few of them.
Everyone counts every minute of plowing, and we can't delay farming.
There was a sound of hoofs on the official road, three horses
He rushed back to the mountain one after another, one of them held the rein, and said to the person next to him.
"Master, there is an early shop here, let's come here to have some dinner."
The person who was called the young master also held the reins of the horse, looked at the stall and then at the wasteland, and then at the direction of Xinzhantun, narrowing his eyes slightly.
The man thought he was unwilling, so he could not help but persuade him.
"Master, there is no breakfast on the mountain, so I have to eat a little bit after traveling so long."
"I got it." After Ying got off, he turned over and got off his horse, threw the horse's rein to the man, and stepped on the bluestone slab to come over.
Looking at his familiar figure, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
I thought it would be him, but I didn't expect it to be.
With sharp eyes, Dai Liang saw him walking this way, and he was still wearing very elegant clothes, so he slightly arched his hands to welcome him and said.
"The guest officer would like to eat something, we now have steamed buns, steamed buns, porridge, bone soup. Pickles are given as a gift, and our boss's wife mixes them. They are very delicious."
The man looked at their uniforms and nodded slowly.
Ling Muchuan turned his head after hearing the sound, and when he saw the person coming, he narrowed his eyes for an unprecedented time, and then returned to the face he had just now, without any expression.
Ding Guangyu, the nearest to him, thought he was dazzled when he saw it.
But when he rubbed his eyes, Ling Muchuan did not smile. Could it be that he was really dazzled.
The man casually found a place to sit down, looked at Dai Liang in front of him, and asked.
"How long has your stall been open? Is there any redemption?"
Dai Liang was surprised by the question, but he was also clever and hurriedly answered.
"Yes, our shopkeeper has a red deed, which was done in the county a year ago. The mayor wrote it personally when the guest official looked at our guise."
"Haha... That's it." Slowly nodded and stopped talking.
Ling Muchuan put the long stool in his hand, came to the opposite side of the person's seat, and asked.
"What to eat?"
"You look at Zhang Luo, the three of us."
Ling Muchuan turned to look at Dai Liang, and ordered.
"Thirty meat buns, three bowls of porridge, and some steamed buns."
"Okay." Dai Liang nodded after hearing it, then turned and went to the back.
The two entourages fastened their horses and were taken aback when they saw Ling Muchuan. After only a moment, they clasped their fists and arched their hands and sat on both sides of the master.
Ling Muchuan knocked on the table with one hand and asked in a low voice.
"When did you come back?"
"Just arrived." The man replied, then looked at him and asked, "Where is your daughter-in-law?"
"What's next, take you to see?"
"No, there are so many people, I will pass by at night."
"Okay." Ling Muchuan finished speaking and got up and continued to work on his affairs.
Dai Liang took the food and moved aside to move the table with them.
It's impossible to sweep the floor when someone is eating. I'll talk about it later.
After the three of them had eaten, the one who had just told Ling Muchuan got up, walked up to him, and said.
"The buns are delicious, the food is also very good, and the taste is good. People who work in the mountains come to you for breakfast?"
Ling Muchuan nodded as a response.
"I'm the chief in charge of building a temple on the mountain. Since you have a red deed and things are good, keep it open. The project will end in the autumn of the coming year."
"Okay, thanks a lot."
The two were deliberately alienated in order to prevent others from seeing anything.
Ling Muchuan shook his head and refused.
Regardless of the relationship, this person is the "manager" on the mountain and has to invite others to dinner.
Last time Xie Jiaping returned to the small housekeeper, they gave up dozens of them
Baozi, earned it.
Three people were sent away, and everyone continued to clean.
As if the conversation just now did not affect them.
Sweeping and mopping the floor, all the back is cleaned up, leaving only the front area.
Wait for everyone to finish eating and clean up after they leave, so that they can step on their footprints.
I have to say that this mop made by Lin Su is very practical. The bluestone slabs were dragged clean, and every day when people came to eat, they felt different.
Lin Su fry a hot and sour potato shreds and serve them on two plates.
You can't always eat pickles, porridge, and steamed buns. Anyone will get tired of it.
After breakfast, everyone went back and was busy farming.
Today it is Ding Guangcheng's turn to finish, so Ding Guangyu will go back to the ground first, and he will drag the rest of the place and leave.
Jiang Ju and everyone else left, came to Lin Su who kept the bookkeeping, and whispered.
"Sister-in-law, can I ask you for a favor?"
"What's the matter?" Lin Su didn't look up, and continued to write what was in his hand.
Jiang Ju glanced at his husband and took a deep breath, as if he was embarrassed.
"Sister-in-law, this is the case. Can we temporarily not receive the wages of the three of us? I will tell my sister-in-law when I want to receive it."
Lin Su raised his head when he heard the words, put down the brush in his hand, looked at her, and asked.
"What's the situation? Why did it happen suddenly?"
Ding Guangcheng's actions to clean up the sanitation also stopped. When he talked, he opened his mouth. After all, there was no sound, and he lowered his head and continued to mop the floor.
Lin Su looked at the appearance of their couple, vaguely felt that something was going on.
Pointing to the stool in front of him, said.
"Sit down and talk, what's the matter?"
Jiang Ju lightly sighed and sat down, stirring his hands uneasy, then looked at Lin Su and said.
"I... I want to save some. I always want to buy something when I take it home, so I just... I think I should put it on my sister-in-law's side."
This reason is particularly far-fetched. Although Lin Su didn't believe it, he didn't ask. Nodded, said.
"Okay, since you can trust me, just keep it here. Say it in advance when you want it, so I can prepare it for you."
"Thank you sister-in-law, thank you sister-in-law." Jiang Ju's state made Lin Su frown even more.
Seeing Ding Guangcheng working hard on the side, he thought for a while and said.
"Can you tell me about Yingzi's marriage?"
"Not yet." Jiang Ju answered with a deep face.
Lin Su understood when he saw it, and probably didn't want to take the money home because of this sister-in-law.
After finishing the last bill, he looked up at her and said.
"You can't be anxious about the relationship. But you can tell the matchmaker how many betrothal gifts the other party gave, and you don't want anything, all will be accompanied by Yingzi.
Jiang Ju was slightly startled when he heard this, then nodded and said.
"Well, I know my sister-in-law, thank you."
"It's okay." Lin Su got up, put the account book away, and handed it to Ling Muchuan to lock it.
After Ding Guangcheng dragged the last bluestone slab, Lin Su waved at him and said.
"Go back. I'll take care of the rest."
After that, Lin Su hung the clean mop and put it aside in Lishui.
Ding Guangcheng dunked the pot, drained the water, and left the shop with his wife.
Lin Su looked at the backs of the couple going away, still squeezing sweat for Jiang Ju.
After all, in front of her husband, she talked about not receiving wages. It is estimated that she did it on a whim.
"What do you think?"
Ling Muchuan came behind her, put her arm in her arms and asked...
