Li Xiuhong stood at the door of the yard, holding a food box in her hand.
She saw Sister-in-law Zhao leaving with her own eyes, and then she dared to come to find Cheng Zhao.
She saw Cheng Zhao drying rice in the yard and rushed in: "Cousin Cheng, this rough work is not suitable for scholars. Let me help you..."
"Miss Li, this is inappropriate!" Wu Huiniang immediately stood up and came over, blocking Cheng Zhao, "It is the autumn harvest time, and the Zhang family is also busy. If you have time, go back and help your aunt with more work."
Li Xiuhong blushed slightly and said, "I've finished all my work, so I came here to take a look. I specially made some food for cousin Cheng. I made some porridge with the newly harvested rice. Cousin Cheng, please try it." Bar."
Cheng Zhao avoided her direct gaze and said in a cold voice: "I'm not your cousin, please pay attention to your wording."
"Then, what should I call you?" Li Xiuhong's face turned redder, "Just, just call you Brother Cheng, okay?"
Wu Huiniang: "..."
She was not so bold when she met Dashan.
She took a deep breath, picked up the broom at hand and said: "Miss Li, give way, I want to sweep the rice, give way again!"
Li Xiuhong was kicked out directly. Her face turned redder, both angry and ashamed.
She gritted her teeth and said: "A nerd who doesn't understand amorous feelings..."
She was about to leave when she raised her eyes and saw another person in the yard. She had heard from her aunt a long time ago that a distinguished guest came to Zhao Dashan's house. He was the son of the county magistrate. The man lying in the yard shaking his legs, It should be the county magistrate's son, Master Shen.
Although the clothes were a little tattered, his noble temperament could not be concealed.
When she looked over, Shen Zheng also looked over, and their eyes met in the air.
Shen Zheng twitched his fingers.
Li Xiuhong was secretly happy. She knew that someone would fall in love with her if she wore this outfit.
It doesn't matter if Cheng Zhao doesn't like her. No, Master Shen of the county magistrate's family has fallen in love with her. If she marries Master Shen, then she will be like a sparrow flying on a branch and turning into a phoenix...
Li Xiuhong straightened her clothes and walked into the yard again.
Wu Huiniang held her belly and said angrily: "Miss Li, what are you doing here again?"
Li Xiuhong said confidently: "Master Shen asked me to come in."
Wu Huiniang looked at Shen Zheng and saw Shen Zheng staring at Li Xiuhong looking up and down. She said nothing in silence. Her mother-in-law had personally told her about Cousin Cheng. As for Master Shen... she really couldn't care less.
Shen Zhengzheng looked at Li Xiuhong in his free time and took the food box from her hand directly.
Li Xiuhong said diligently: "This is porridge made from new rice. It is very sticky and fragrant. Here are the chopsticks. Master Shen, please have a taste."
Shen Zheng took the chopsticks, pretended to take a bite, and then spat it out: "It tastes really bad."
The smile on Li Xiuhong's face froze.
"If scholars like us get married, we must find a well-educated woman who can write and add ink. Your hands are so rough that you don't even know what ink is."
Shen Zheng's words made Li Xiuhong hide her hands behind her back in shame.
"It's okay if Hongxiu can't add ink. It's good to know how to cook, but your craftsmanship is really hard to swallow." Shen Zheng said unceremoniously, "You have only beauty, no connotation, and no cooking skills." Yi, why do you think Cheng Zhao will like you?!"
"Also, the clothes you are wearing seem to be too big. They were stolen from someone, right? Is such a person of bad character worthy of hanging around in front of Cheng Zhao?"
Li Xiuhong's big eyes suddenly turned red. She covered her face, turned around and ran away.
Wu Huiniang was stunned. The young master's words were too rude. Fortunately, she did not offend the young master...
Shen Zheng stood up and walked up to Cheng Zhao casually. He patted Cheng Zhao on the shoulder: "Brother Cheng, when you encounter women who entangle you in the future, you should say the most unpleasant words to drive them away, otherwise she will really think that you are If there is a chance, I will give you food from time to time, and I will give you a hug from time to time. If you fail many times, you will think of giving me medicine... Hey, Brother Cheng, do you know what giving medicine means?"
Of course Cheng Zhao didn't know. There was no such word in the village, and no one in the academy had ever said anything about it.
Shen Zheng whispered: "I heard from Qian Hui that the concubines in his father's backyard drugged each other, and three or four of his younger brothers and sisters were drugged... Oh my god, it's lucky that my father didn't have any concubines, otherwise I won’t live to be this old…”
Cheng Zhao frowned and said, "If you are too busy, help me dry the rice."
Shen Zheng hummed softly: "I helped you solve a big problem, and you still have a cold face. It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and you don't know a good heart."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Sidan running in with two wolves and two dogs.
The wolves are Xiaodian and Xiaohei, the dog is Dahei, and the wealthy Aunt Wang’s family next door.
When Wangcai was first born, he was stronger than Dahei. Later, Dahei's size gradually surpassed Wangcai's, and his hair was shinier than Wangcai's.
Wangcai was timid and took a detour when he saw the dots at first. In the past few days, a group of dogs and wolves became more familiar with each other.
Xiaodian held a pheasant in his mouth, Dahei and Wangcai each held a wild pigeon in their mouths, and Xiaohei followed the three brothers and jumped around happily.
"Sister-in-law, cousin, look, Xiaodian is so awesome!" Zhao Sidan shouted excitedly, "I saw Xiaodian catch this pheasant with my own eyes and bite off its neck in one bite. Xiaodian is so awesome. I must reward Xiaodian with a big chicken drumstick tonight!"
During the busy days of farming, the wild wolves on the mountain consciously stopped coming down the mountain. Now that there was a brother named Xiaodian, the female wolf didn't care about Xiao Hei that much. The frequency of going down the mountain became less and less, and the game at home also stopped.
Zhao Sidan's mouth watered down: "Sister-in-law, let's make braised pheasant meat tonight...forget it, let's make soup. Mom said, sister-in-law needs to drink more soup."
Wu Huiniang said with a smile: "Isn't there a wild pigeon in Dahei's mouth? The pigeon is stewed in soup, the pheasant is braised, a chicken leg is rewarded to Xiaodian, and there is also a chicken leg..."
Shen Zheng said hurriedly: "Aunt Zhao said that I exceeded the task today and rewarded me with a big chicken drumstick. Cheng Zhao, you heard it too, right?"
Cheng Zhao said: "Second aunt seems to be saying that Brother Shen will be rewarded with drumsticks after he has accomplished something."
Shen Zheng snorted: "Anyway, Aunt Zhao said to reward chicken drumsticks, so the second drumstick must be given to me."
Ah Fu couldn't stand it anymore. There were only three serious masters in the county government. The old lady was fasting and praying to Buddha. Sometimes the adults were so busy that they didn't have time to eat. The young master rarely came back from school. As long as he came back once, the old lady would let everyone in the kitchen know how to eat. Big fish and meat are served on the table. The young master who eats chicken, duck and fish every day is now shamelessly asking for chicken legs. If the old lady sees it, she will be heartbroken.
Aunt Wang from next door came over happily. She pulled the wild pigeon out of Wangcai's mouth and said with a smile: "Sidan, from now on, go out for a stroll and ask Wangcai to follow you. You can't catch pheasants, and even pigeons and sparrows." Okay, my aunt will give you a pigeon leg to eat later."
Zhao Sidan quickly waved his hand: "No, I have pheasants and pigeons at home. Auntie, leave the pigeons to Brother Loach and Sister Damai to eat."
Aunt Wang touched his head: "What a good boy. When this time is over, Auntie will make steamed buns for you to eat, no, white steamed buns!"
Zhao Sidan chuckled: "Thank you, Auntie, I'll go to the fields to pick rice."
He rushed out of the yard with a basket on his back, two wolves and two dogs.
Shen Zheng stepped out and rushed out. Although he was the son of a county magistrate, the world was actually very monotonous. He was either at home or in school. He had never seen a wild wolf catching a pheasant. He wanted to follow him to see the world.
