Farmhouse Golden Phoenix

Chapter 41

Su Qinghe was a little surprised, but then suddenly realized that Yang Pengcheng's family conditions were good.Parents had spare money, so they sent Yang Pengcheng to study. There was an older son in front of him who was in charge of making money. He should have expected such a day long ago.

"Leave tomorrow? Brother Yang Zi, where is your new house?" Su Qinghe said with a smile: "Congratulations to Brother Yang Zi, brother Yang Zi also passed the childbirth test last time. If you move to the town, you can study more seriously. In the future, I will definitely be able to pass the examination of scholars, and then pass the examination of Juren, and then become the number one scholar!"

Yang Pengcheng stared at Su Qinghe for a while, then nodded with a smile: "Thank you, little sister, for your good words. If I really become the champion in the future, I will give little sister a big gift, okay?"

"Okay, then Brother Yang Zi will work hard." Su Qinghe nodded and gestured to her basket: "Brother Yang Zi, I'm going to pick elm coins, are you going? Brother Yang Zi moves tomorrow, will you be busy today? Uncle Yang and Yang Is Aunt coming here in a hurry?"

"I'm busy, but for some small things, my elder brother also had someone drive over, and the big ones have already been moved." Yang Zi said, and followed Su Qinghe to the river, Su Qinghe didn't intend to It's called Su Qinglan.

After all, Yang Pengcheng is already 12 years old, and Su Qinglan is also 11 years old, so it should be avoided.Although she is also over eight years old, she is not much different from seven years old, so don't worry too much about it.

"Xiaohe, I will go to the county school to study in the future, so I might not go back to the village." After hesitating for a while, Yang Pengcheng said, "Will you miss me after I leave?"

"Of course I will. Brother Yang Zi is just like my elder brother. I will definitely think about it." Su Qinghe said with a smile, put the basket on the ground, raised a stick and prepared to fork two elm branches down, but she is a little short, standing on tiptoe There was no use of strength, and I almost fell down.

Yang Pengcheng took the stick from the side, and when he broke it hard, the branch fell off. Su Qinghe hurried over to pick it up, picked the tender elm money on it, and put it in the basket.

"We won't see each other for a long time, Xiaohe, you can read, how about I write to you?" Yang Pengcheng continued to ask, Su Qinghe nodded indifferently: "Brother Yang Zi, you can write to my elder brother and second elder brother first." , if I want to write a letter now, I have to let my elder brother and second elder brother read it."

Yang Pengcheng thought about the attitudes of the two brothers of the Su family, and instantly dismissed the idea. It would be fine if the two brothers didn't trip him up, and let them send a message?Then send a letter with a different meaning in front of them.

Hey, I'm about to move, and I won't be able to see such a cute and beautiful little sister Xiaohe after this move.Maybe when I come back in a few years, sister Xiao He will get married.What a beautiful girl, she is smart and capable, and I don't know who will get the better of her in the future.

If I could marry Xiao He... stop, stop, Xiao He is only eight years old!
Yang Pengcheng shook his head, while Su Qinghe was still curious: "Brother Yang Zi, what's wrong with you? Did a bug fall on your head? Do you want me to show you?"

"No need, I suddenly feel a little dizzy." Yang Pengcheng smiled sarcastically, and broke off two branches: "Xiao He, you..." After a pause, Yang Pengcheng handed the wooden stick to Su Qinghe: " It's getting late now, do you still want money?"

"Well, I want to go back and steam some yuqian rice." Su Qinghe said with a smile, and looked up at Yang Pengcheng: "Brother Yang Zi, do you have something to do? Then you can go about your business and don't worry about me, I will do it later back home."

Yang Pengcheng nodded, reached out and rubbed Su Qinghe's head, turned around and left.

Su Qinghe didn't think much about it, and continued to hook her own money.This is mixed with cornmeal, steamed and mixed with garlic juice. It is very delicious.When she was very young, her family was poor and had no food, and this was common on the table at home.

After eating elm money, go on to eat Sophora japonica.Stay up until May, and burn green wheat ears to eat.In June, when the wheat is ripe, black flour rice can be eaten.The difference between white noodles and black noodles is the number of times the noodles are filtered. If you pay attention to it a few times, the noodles will become whiter and finer.However, there are many things lost.

"Little sister!" When the basket was almost full, Su Qinghe heard someone shouting from a distance, and when she looked up, she saw her elder brother and second brother standing on the bullock cart and waving to her. Su Qinghe ran to the cart with a basket in her hand, smiling: " Dad, are you back?"

"Well, did you get the elm money?" Su Jingsen smiled and hugged Su Qinghe into the car, and said while shaking the whip: "When I go home at night, let your mother steam it and buy some sesame oil. It's delicious. If you want sweet ones, how about Can get some sugar."

Su Qinghe shook her head: "Father, I want to trip over cornmeal!"

"Corn flour?" Su Jingsen didn't understand. Su Qinghe said with a smile: "It's our golden rice noodles. I think the name is too long and it doesn't sound good. The white spots on the corn are like white jade. The shaft in the middle is also the same as jade, so I call it cornmeal."

Su Jingsen has always doted on her daughter, so she nodded immediately: "The name Xiaohe is so apt, isn't the white dot on it just like white jade? Corn corn sounds pretty nice, so let's take advantage of the fact that no one else knows what this thing is called. Let's call it corn."

"Father is right." Su Qinghe applauded at the side, and Su Zhiping dragged her down: "Little sister, have you finished reading the homework I left you this morning? How many characters did you know today? Have you drawn the big characters yet?"

"Brother, you left too few words, I know them all." Su Qinghe blinked and smiled and said, "I glanced at ten big characters, and brother went back to check. Brother, what did the gentleman tell you today? Is there a good story? "

"Yes, today we are talking about Tang Faxia, a state-owned merchant, for six hundred years, until the death of Zhou. King Wu of Zhou, who first punished Zhou, lasted eight hundred years, the longest." Su Zhian continued on the side: "I will tell you later. Tell me, little sister, have you planted your cotton today?"

Su Qinghe said this before, and their brothers all knew about it.

"It's all planted. Our father may have done it. The eldest brother and the second brother also have to help. Tomorrow, they will help me carry water and irrigate the field." Su Qinghe took the opportunity to make a request. Although their family let Su Zhiping and Su Zhian go to school, they didn't Jiao Chong, usually when they come back from school, they still have to do something more or less.

When the farming season is busy, they have to go to the fields, and only when Su Jingsen and the others return home can they follow them home.During the slack season, it is usually Su Qinghe who directs them to do something.

"Okay, didn't my little sister learn how to embroider with my third sister a few days ago? We help you carry water and irrigate the ground. Should my little sister help us make a purse or something? I don't ask too much, as long as I can bring Just go out and meet people." Su Zhian said with a smile, Su Zhiping followed suit and nodded: "You are not required to embroider, as long as you embroider your name on it."

Su Qinghe curled her lips: "You guys look down on people too much, isn't it just a purse? Wait, I will definitely embroider two very beautiful ones." She is not Miss Jiao who has never taken needlework. When she was in college, someone in the dormitory There were holes in the clothes, and she was asked to mend them.

Small purse, no problem!
But immediately, Su Qinghe knew that embroidering a purse would be difficult.How can modern needlework be on the same line as ancient ones?In modern times, you only need to grab the holes. In ancient times, you have to pay attention to the stitches, and you can't break the thread in the middle. There are a lot of requirements.

It just so happened that the third cousin, Su Qingfen, was serious, and when she saw that Su Qinghe's embroidery was wrong, she asked her to rework immediately.Although it is not enough to pierce your fingers with holes everywhere.But it also made Su Qinghe feel a sore neck and dizzy eyes.

After finally embroidering two purses, it has been nearly half a month.On the day of Su Zhiping's birthday, he and Su Zhian finally received the purse embroidered by his little sister. As expected, there was no pattern on it, just a few lines of words embroidered on it.

"Little sister's craftsmanship is pretty good. I just started learning how to embroider, and I can make such a beautiful purse. My brother thought wrong before." Su Zhiping immediately hung the purse on his waist happily, and praised Su Qinghe very much .

Su Zhi'an had a smile on his face, but his mouth was not forgiving: "Didn't my little sister say it was very simple? It took more than half a month to embroider it? There is no pattern on it. I saw it on the second cousin's purse last time." There is a clump of green bamboo, when can my little sister embroider one for me?"

Su Qinghe pretended to grab his purse: "Forget it if you don't like it, I won't give it to you!"

"I didn't say I didn't like it. Besides, you gave it to me, little sister. How can I go back?" Su Zhian put the purse in his arms with a smile: "This is the first time my little sister gave me a purse. Be sure to keep it well, and when the younger sister is seventy or eighty, I will take it out and make fun of the younger sister."

Su Qinghe glared at him with puffy cheeks, turned around and complained for a while, "Father, mother, second brother bullied me!"

Su Jingsen has always been the most protective of daughters, and immediately stared: "Zhi An, why don't you let your sister be more? Your sister is still young, and it is very good to be able to embroider such a purse. Look, you both still have purses." , neither your father nor your mother have."

Su Qinghe hurriedly coaxed: "Father, those two are not good-looking, so I gave them to the eldest brother and the second brother. When I learn how to embroider patterns, I will embroider the most beautiful ones for father and mother."

Su Zhiping and Su Zhian pretended to sigh and looked pitiful, which made Su Zhang laugh out loud.Su Jingsen was squatting at the door, weaving a small basket, with a smile on her face, but she smiled, then sighed again, and turned to call Su Zhiping: "How is the situation in the town recently?"

Su Zhiping was a little puzzled: "Father, what happened in the town?"

"Aren't you a student? How can you just study to death? You have to care about the outside situation. Your fifth uncle said last time that the county magistrate doesn't want to collect protection tax. It's been more than a month. How is the situation in the town?" gone?"

Su Zhiping frowned, sat down beside Su Jingsen, and helped pass the reed pole: "It's just normal, there's nothing unusual about it, five taels of silver should be affordable by most shops."

Su Zhian also came over: "Father, I heard that the shops in the county cost eight taels of silver."
