Chapter 96: Complete the puzzle of the truth
Manager Zhang and Wang Er reported on the recent growth of seedlings in the fields. Corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes are all growing well.
The most surprising thing was the rice seedlings that no one had expected.
Although the fourth elder brother is the master, he brought out the rice seedlings.
But compared to Sifujin, who successfully dug a well and gave him new tools, the balance in the hearts of these tenants was unconsciously tilted.
They are more willing to believe in the new crops that Sifujin asked them to plant.
When the rice seedlings sprouted, the tenants waited a few more days and confirmed many things before deciding to report the results to the owner.
Lu Pheasant affirmed.
Manager Zhang asked some more technical questions such as whether to add fertilizer and how much to add. They gave several options and let the owner make the decision.
The fourth elder brother and his wife answered the questions separately.
In the end, the uncle and nephew refused the host's request to stay and hurried back overnight.
The farm work cannot be delayed for a day. They want to give the master's instructions quickly.
Lu Pheasant did not stay any longer.
The two cubs were left alone without anyone mentioning them.
The couple didn't pay much attention to eating the ninth elder brother's birthday banquet.
Lu Pheasant asked the kitchen to make some quick meals.
Soon, the couple each held a bowl of Yangchun noodles and started eating.
When the fourth elder brother went to wash up first, Su Peisheng walked in with a mysterious expression: "Fu Jin, I brought someone here according to your order."
Lu Pheasant: "Since you are a veteran, let her take care of you today and make arrangements for tomorrow."
"Slave understands."
When Lu Zhi came out of the shower, Si Age was writing furiously in the small study room in the west room. When he heard a sound, he quickly put down his pen and put it away.
After getting on the bed, the couple didn't say much.
Uranala always went to bed earlier than Si Age.
Tonight, Yinzhen waited for a while before he noticed that the little beauty beside him was approaching.
It was two quarters of an hour later than usual, so he was probably still worried about what happened today.
Just this thing...
Fourth Brother sighed slightly and also fell asleep.
*
The next day, Lu Pheasant woke up a little earlier than usual.
I guess I had something on my mind, so I had breakfast and changed into regular clothes.
Aunt Er said: "Fu Jin needs to meet Aunt Shu first."
Lu Pheasant nodded first and then said, "Where is the puppy? I'll go take a look."
"yes."
Yesterday, when the two cubs showed their faces, Lu Pheasant immediately looked at Xiao Liangren.
Brother Si quickly looked away.
This shows that he still cares in his heart.
The two cubs were temporarily placed next to the guest room, and Su Peisheng specially invited Aunt Shu to come back and take care of them.
Aunt Shu has silver hair all over her head and is very energetic.
When Lu Pheasant came over, the two cubs were sitting around the porcelain plate drinking egg yolk rice porridge, enjoying themselves.
Aunt Shu quickly stood up and saluted: "Old slave, please send your regards to Sifujin."
"Aunt Shu, please get up quickly."
Lu Pheasant sat down.
Pin'er stepped forward to help Nanny Shu up.
Lu Pheasant: "Is everything going well for you, old man?"
Aunt Shu: "Thanks to Sifujin for taking care of me. The old slave now lives in the small courtyard where Tong Jia's family settled. Everything is fine."
Lu Pheasant: "I suddenly invited Grandma Shu over, which disturbed the old man's peace."
Aunt Shu: "Fu Jin's words offend this old slave. I haven't seen Fourth Brother for many years, so I am very happy that I can come here to help."
Lu Pheasant: "The village sent two puppies over. I liked them after seeing them, but I really don't have much experience. Fortunately, Grandma Shu is here."
Aunt Shu smiled and said: "Who wouldn't like a puppy when he sees it? Heiji fell in love with him as soon as he saw him when he was a child. At that time, the old slave didn't understand much, so he was still feeling for the stones. Crossing the river. Alas, it was all many years ago. The old slave is too talkative."
After Pin'er served the tea, Lu Pheasant said, "Mama Shu is a thoughtful person. She suddenly invited you here because of this matter."
Aunt Shu slowly took a sip of tea: "If I remember correctly, yesterday was Brother Ninth's birthday. I didn't expect that after so many years, it still hasn't passed."
"Aunt Shu, what happened that year?"
Aunt Shu slowly spoke: "I am old now and talk a lot. Si Fujin, if you ask a question today, I have to answer it. If I say something wrong, I think Si Age will notice it." For the sake of the old slave, I don’t care about it for so many years.”
"That's natural."
"That day was also the day when the autumn wind blew. Xiao Hei was the youngest son of that litter. He had been weak since birth and always felt miserable when the seasons changed. Si Age felt sorry for him and took him out to get some fresh air. Who Knowing that once you go out, you have reached the end.
That year, the ninth elder brother was only five years old, and when he was naughty, Empress Yi Fei had already planned to move him to his elder brother's house. When he saw Xiao Hei, he also liked him and wanted to play with him. Originally, the fourth elder brother advised Xiao Hei to be sick and wait until he recovers before playing with him another day. But Brother Nine refused to obey. Xiao Hei lay on the table and refused to move. Brother Nine stretched out his hand to move him and let him run. The fourth elder brother was angry. Xiao Hei sensed the little master's temper and bit the ninth elder brother in a show-off manner.
This is not an old slave's boast, Xiao Hei has always been very measured. He probably just held Brother Ninth Brother's hand lightly, but he still scared the young prince. Brother Jiu was very strong and pushed hard. Before Fourth Brother could save him, Xiao Hei fell down and hit his head, and just like that... he was gone.
When the eldest princess came back, the fourth elder brother scolded the ninth elder brother, and the ninth elder brother could only cry. Then Concubine De passed by and everything got worse. Si Age, who was originally angry about his little friend, later became more worried about him and was willing to bury Xiao Hei first.
Fortunately, Concubine De and Brother Jiu are fine. But then one day the fourth brother came back crying and went to see Xiao Hei. When the old slave was delivering something to Brother Si, he heard him say to the sign, "Xiao Hei, if I can't seek justice for you, will you blame me?"
In fact, it was not easy for him as a young master at that time. Queen Xiaoyi died less than two months after giving birth to the little princess. Since then, her health has deteriorated day by day. Empress De Fei was pregnant at this time, so she couldn't care about the fourth elder brother. Moreover, Xiao Hei's death also hit Empress De Fei's fetus, and the ninth elder brother was injured and frightened.
It was lucky that the Fourth Brother was not implicated in this. He was even afraid that Lao Nu and others would be implicated, so he asked Lord Tong Jia to take us out of the palace early. As a result, there will be no one around him. Later, the old slave heard that Long live the Lord reprimanded him for this.
A few years later, when the old slave saw Si Age again, he almost didn't recognize his young master. Si Fujin brought Lao Nu over today, and I knew that Brother Si had never let go of Xiao Hei. At that time, he refused to let us tell the eldest princess what happened. Now, the old slave finally told the whole story. No regrets, old slave. "
