Chapter 37: Eat radish and worry about it

The crowning day is approaching, Shen Yanbei and Gu Changfeng can go to the county to order the ingredients needed for the banquet and go to the cloth store to buy clothing materials, and ask the tailor to tailor the dress and the dress to be worn on the crown ceremony. Hat, Su Qingze and Ming'an are walking together, and they will stop by the county government.
Since childhood, Su Qingze, who has never taken a bullock cart, was fortunate enough to experience a slow journey for the first time. Looking around, I didn't feel the journey was boring at all.
The young meaty face was full of smiles, holding a long reed in his hand, sitting calmly at the rear of the car like an old man fishing, with two naturally drooping legs, swaying and shaking with the bullock cart. Shaking.
Although it's not as light and comfortable as a carriage, it's also fun to sit on!
Ming An sat beside him, looking at the green seedling field in front of him, feeling very relaxed.
Before going out, the uncle will tell him his life, and must take care of the young master, if the young master has any discomfort, we must stop him. But during the few days he lived in the village, what he was worried about did not happen.
Shen Xiucai and the young master said that if you want to lose weight, you have to stop your mouth and open your legs, but they didn't force the young master to do something, and he didn't treat the young master badly in eating. Every meal has fish and meat, but the portion is less, and the oil and water are less, but it tastes really good!
Although the young master's figure has not changed much in a few days, he can feel that the young master is very happy.
He has been with the young master for so long, except when Ah Heng was there, he has never seen the young master live so happy!
Uncle Shen, who was sitting in front of the car, was all smiles. The younger son went back to the restaurant to take care of the spoons. He also went to the restaurant to deliver food every day. The difference was that the younger son worked happily and increased his salary, and his food was also bought at a good price!
The bullock cart wandered into the county. Uncle Shen was parking the cart and sitting in the tea shed waiting for them. Su Qingze waved at the two, Shen Yanbei nodded and Gu Changfeng went to see the shopkeeper Liu at the Tongfu restaurant.
The restaurant business is good, and the lobby on the first floor is almost full. Shen Yanbei asked the treasurer Liu to take the account book and calculate the accounts for the past few days.
The shopkeeper Liu stood aside respectfully, watching Shen Yanbei no longer need to plan, but glanced at it to calculate the daily surplus, and couldn't help being full of admiration.
"Have those two been to a restaurant recently?" Gu Changfeng asked in a low voice.
Shopkeeper Liu stroked his beard and smiled and said, "I've been here, but I didn't dare to make trouble, and I honestly gave money for meals." The tone became subtle: "This is thanks to the magistrate."
It turned out that the two of them were frightened by Gu Changfeng that day. They lay at home for two days and disappeared for a while. After recovering from the illness, the two swaggered across the market and ran to them for morning tea early in the morning. The private room was gone, and the two men did not change their will. They broke into the private room and threatened the first visitor to give them the private room.
Unexpectedly, there was a beautiful woman sitting in the private room, that Li Sheng's eyeballs stuck to the person, and she also offended the other party. As a result, I hit the iron plate this time! That woman was actually the wife of the new county magistrate!
The county grandfather kept his face calm and rewarded the two of them with a board, saying that no matter how arrogant and domineering to insult others, it is not as simple as playing the board!
The two were so scared that they broke into a cold sweat, and obediently gave money to cover their and rolled!
"The county magistrate knows right from wrong and governs strictly. This is a good thing." Shen Yanbei closed the account book and smiled lightly.
The shopkeeper Liu nodded deeply. The former county magistrate accepted the benefits of the Li family and allowed Li Sheng and others to behave, and the Yamen Yamen didn’t dare to take care of the two of them. As a result, many people who were insulted had nowhere to complain, but the new magistrate After coming, the ethos was rectified immediately, and the people were overjoyed.
"After two days, I will give the crown ceremony. Brother Laifu will have to go back to the village to take charge. The restaurant will be closed for one day, and the guys will have a day off." Shen Yanbei explained.
Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly congratulated, and finally asked Shen Yanbei: "Can there be a banquet for the county grandfather?" As a scholar under the county grandfather's rule, it is normal to send invitations to the county grandfather. Even if the county grandfather won't come, the courtesy must be done. Thoughtful.
Shen Yanbei smiled and said, "I have already sent the invitation to the past." It's fine if I don't know him. Now Su Qingze is with him, and Li Zhiyuan has sent him a book again. This invitation must be sent, and he has to find one. Come personally at the right time for an official visit.
At this time, the invitation was placed in front of Li Zhiyuan.
"Big Brother Shen on the sixth day of the year gave a crowning ceremony, and when I came back, I helped him bring the invitation."
Su Qingze held her nephew high, and the little doll grinned, revealing two small white teeth, very cute. Su Qingze couldn't help but kissed his soft cheek: "Xiao Lin'er, do you think uncle?"
Little Wawa stretched out her hand to touch his face and called "Uncle" vaguely, so happy that Su Qingze hugged him in circles.
Looking at the two dumplings, Su Wanqing said with a smile: "It's alright, don't make trouble." She stood up and hugged her son, and looked at Su Qingze carefully.
I haven't seen him for several days, the young man is full of vigor and looks more energetic.
"It's darker." I don't know if it was an illusion, she felt that her brother's fleshy face seemed to be thinner.
"Really?" Su Qingze looked at his hand and didn't care. "Why do you guys want to be so vain?" Unlike staying indoors at home, he has been playing wild in the village these days! He went to fish in the water, went up to the tree to dig out bird eggs, and he did everything he found interesting and fun!
Su Wanqing groaned: "What nonsense? What manly man? You a little pair, don't keep talking about this! If you really become like a man, you cry!"
Su Qingze curled his lips: "What's wrong with being like a man? Isn't Gu Brother just like that? I envy him too late!"
"Who is Brother Gu?" Su Wanqing asked suspiciously.
Li Zhiyuan coughed slightly: "It's Shen Xiucai's husband, a relatively tall and sturdy pair."
"Brother Gu is amazing!" Su Qingze was full of admiration, "I have great strength! A large tank of water can be picked in twos or twos! The knife fell with the hand, the firewood was chopped quickly and neatly, and each piece was about the same size! And I have good eyesight. I saw a rabbit from a distance and knocked the rabbit stunned by throwing a stone!"
Su Wanqing asked in disbelief, "Is there such a pair?"
"Of course! If it wasn't for the pregnant mole on the eyebrow, Brother Gu would be a real man!"
Imagining the appearance of the other party, Su Wanqing frowned and said: "No matter what the other party is, don't become like this."
Hearing that, Su Qingze just laughed. Su Wanqing glanced at him: "When you come back, don't run around. I will let the kitchen stew a bird's nest to make up for you."
Su Qingze shook his head: "I have to go! I have an appointment with Brother Gu and the others at the Chaliao at the gate of the county."
After finishing talking, I was afraid that Su Wanqing would nag him again, so I hurriedly left a sentence: "I'm just coming back to see Lin'er, I'm leaving! Sister, brother-in-law, take care!"
"Why are you so anxious!" Su Wanqing glared at him, "Lin'er's birthday is coming soon, you remember to be back that day!"
"Okay!" Su Qingze responded far away, pulling Ming'an away.
"Smelly boy!" Su Wanqing sighed helplessly.
"Sigh? Why isn't Qingze doing this well?" Li Zhiyuan opened the invitation card and closed it.
"What's so good? Who would dare to marry a pair of wild children?" Su Wanqing said in a sad tone.
Li Zhiyuan's eyes flashed and he smiled dryly: "Eat radish and worry about it. Then Shen Xiucai can like his husband, and there will be people like Qingze. You don't have to worry."
"I hope..." Su Wanqing touched her son's head, and said, "If Qingze can really lose weight, I have to thank that Shen Xiucai!" Her brother was a pretty beautiful woman when he was a child , It's a pity that the body is too weak to make up for it. Otherwise, the people who came to their home to beg for relatives would definitely be able to level the threshold, so why they ended up at the age of seventeen now, and there is no news yet!
Li Zhiyuan touched his nose: "That's it, but it doesn't have to be too thin, it's still a bit more fleshy and good-looking."
Su Wanqing glanced at him strangely, and Li Zhiyuan guiltyly changed the subject: "What do you think about my son's birthday party? I have just taken office and haven't seen the local squire, so why not take this opportunity to invite people to come and sit down? sit?"
"All right, I will also meet the ladies here by the way." Su Wanqing said, remembering the brother Gu mentioned by Su Qingze just now, thinking that she just invited someone to see if it is as powerful as Su Qingze said. .
When the four of them met at the gate of the county seat, they all had a lot of things in their hands and filled the bullock carts for food.
Uncle Shen yelled and threw the whip, and the old scalper carried the ox cart slowly back.
Everyone in the village knows that Shen Yanbei will hold a crowning ceremony in the Shen family's ancestral hall. After the ceremony, he will entertain all the villagers for a meal, and they all look forward to it. Seeing that both of Shen Yanbei’s husband and wife purchased large and small bags from the county, they were very enthusiastic about coming to help move things. As a result, Gu Changfeng had a bag in his left hand and a bag in his right, and he was carrying a bag on his shoulder. It's all done!
Shen Yanbei had no choice but to thank the villagers politely, and followed his wife back home.
"Daughter-in-law, you are so capable!" Shen Yanbei chuckled as he watched him put down his things effortlessly and tidied them one by one.
Gu Changfeng looked at him with serious eyes: "You can study at ease, and I will take care of you." He won't be able to do anything but strength, but Shen Yanbei wants to study to find a way out and support his family. This is better than him. It is much harder and harder to simply sell labor. Therefore, he has to learn to take good care of his husband so that he will not worry about the trivial matters of life.
"Okay!" Shen Yanbei enjoyed the care of his wife very much. Seeing the sky, it was time to prepare for dinner, so he took the people to the bamboo forest he bought.
"I plan to use the ten acres of bamboo woodland to raise chickens." Shen Yanbei asked Gu Changfeng to chop down a few pieces of bamboo to prepare a bamboo rice.
"Yeah." Raising chickens is good. Reading is so hard, I have to boil chicken soup every day to make up.
Shen Yanbei was also thinking about eating chicken in his heart. Salt-baked chicken, chicken, white-cut chicken, roast chicken... you can eat whatever you want when you raise your own chicken!
But before the chickens were delivered, he had to ask someone who helped raise the chickens, and he didn't know if there was any news from Uncle Zhong. In addition, you have to find someone to help you watch the ducks. Zhou Yu is his book boy, not his long-time worker, and he has to be taken out at that time, so he can't stay in the field and count the ducks.
Shen Yanbei wanted to have a good talk with Zhou Yu when he was eating later, but before he found Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu came to him with red eyes.
"My son, the duck was stolen!"
