C22

So she waved her hands snappily, as if to drive away her annoyance, "Got it! Hmph, ah, I say, Jin, you must ask your uncle about that book. As a woman, I don't know about that, and I've never seen that silver before! I see that this little donkey is pretty good, I'll be going back to my home in a few days, how about I lend it to Eldest Aunt for it? "

"Eldest Aunt, do you want to rent our donkey cart?"

"Look at you, what are you renting, I am your own Eldest Aunt!"

Ah pei, blood related to the Eldest Aunt? Mu Rousang did not recognize her, furthermore, her heart was not the original owner's, "Aiyo, although talking about money hurts our relationship, but as you have seen in Eldest Aunt, there are only two children in my house, I cannot mention this side of mine. I still remember that after my mother passed away, Eldest Aunt often had meat, and pitiful my brother still needed to go out to beg.

Mu Rousang was enraged, she did not care about how much respect people had for people, if she wanted to be a good Eldest Uncle and his family, she would not be able to protect her family's property, which was what she earned with her money.

Qin Tiezhu could not stand watching any longer, "Eldest wife of the Mu Family, didn't your family already split up? It's not easy for these two kids either. If you force yourself to take over her family's property, then I will start talking here today. I will definitely get the village chief to tell him what you've done. I am a witness! "

Mu Rousang secretly gave her a big thumbs up! Mulberry said shamelessly, "Ha! Isn't it just a broken car? "What's so great about that!" He spat and cursed as he walked back.

Mu Rousang rolled her eyes, he really couldn't let her off so easily, she stood on her tiptoes and supported herself with the door frame as she shouted towards Mulberry's back, "Eldest Aunt, I often hear my mother calling you from under that tree, she said it's so cold down there, and she wants to find Eldest Aunt as her companion!"

"Pfft, Mulberry was shocked, as expected, he slipped and fell into a pit, falling like a dog into the mud!" Ah, little sister, I remember now. A few days ago, Second Uncle Qin dug quite a bit of mud there.

"Of course, or I wouldn't have said that!"

"Alright, it seems like your family is getting better and better. Although this courtyard has been repaired, I'm afraid it's still inappropriate to only have you two siblings in the family!" Qin Tiezhu watched as Mulberry limped his way back to the village, reminding him that this wall could only defend against wild beasts and not humans!

"Ah?" What should we do? " Mu Jinzhi naturally understood what he was saying.

"Get me a dog!" Qin Tiezhu pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Bastard?" Where could they find such things? The poor families couldn't even feed others as much as they wanted to. The siblings were worried. The two of them had a dog by their side at such a young age, so they had to wake up at night!

"Let me think. In this village, only the village chief and Lin Tu Hu have two dogs. The Lin Tu Clan's dog is about to be fed, so I'll tell your wife to bring one over for you later!" Qin Tiezhu was truly a shrewd person, he only needed to bring up the matter of a dog to know the situation of the Mu Rousang family.

"Second Uncle, thank you for this matter!" "Tomorrow, my sister and I still need to go to the town for some business. I'll give Second Uncle two catties of liquor to drink." Mu Jinzhi was not a stupid child. He had been shopping around Mu Rousang's shops these past few days, and he had long since become more experienced in dealing with personnel matters.

"Yo, it's a success. Second Uncle will be waiting for you at home to satisfy your craving for wine!" He had only heard his wife mutter that Mu Rousang was an expert at embroidery. It seemed that her skills were quite consummate, fortunately, he did not probe further, otherwise, she would have suspected that she did not have the money to eat.

After sending Second Uncle Qin off, Mu Rousang angrily closed the door, "Brother, why do you think the Eldest Uncle and his family is so annoying? How annoying.

Sister, don't be angry. You must think about it, each year we grow up, while Uncle and Eldest Aunt will grow old each year. Is this the spirit of Ah Q? Mu Rousang was dumbstruck. She originally wanted Mu Jinzhi to think of a way to send this so-called Eldest Uncle and his family far away.

Forget it, they seemed to pay a lot of attention to the clansmen's interference, and she did not want to overturn this thought. Since she had the leisure, she might as well think about how to earn more money and live her own life.

"Brother, let's go to vegetable garden and collect some vegetables. With this little donkey, we can sell more vegetables!"

"Yes, but now we have to carry the little pig to the boar's nest!" From now on, he no longer had to be envious of others raising pigs at home. He, Mu Jinzhi, would be able to eat meat often in the future, and his sister would no longer have to covet the meat at other people's houses, in his heart, he planned to sell one pig after the other, leaving the rest for his sister so that she could grow faster!

"Brother, this pig looks really cute. It's pink in color!" Mu Rousang's sweet and clear voice broke his sadness as she said, "Mn, little sister, in the future, big brother will bring back more pig-cages to feed the pigs!"

I forgot to tell you. Qin Er said that he would give us some sweet potato seedlings last time, and we will plant them on that plot of land, so I don't need to plant the pig grass anymore. Mu Rousang's plan was that Mu Jinzhi would either become an official or become a wealthy man. Hence, she planned to go out tomorrow to buy some ink and paper!

In the blink of an eye, Mu Rousang had already been in this space for a month, and she was currently counting the copper coins with a smile. "Brother, we need to go buy a small wooden chest." Looking at the pile of coins on the bed, she wiped off her saliva with a silver ingot. Deducting the money she had spent on selling this Moonlight Vegetable, Mu Jinzhi never imagined that her family would be so wealthy.

"Little sister, hurry up and put it away. You can't let aunt see it." He would not forget that family.

"Hmm, that jar is not suitable to hold silver anymore. I should buy a small wooden case later to hold the silver ingots. Oh right, Bro, shouldn't you go to the academy now?" Mu Rousang did not forget to send her brother to the Academy.

As he grew up, had a maturity that was not suitable for his age, "Little Sister, wait a little longer!" He knew how much Mu Rousang hoped that Mu Jinzhi could go to the Academy.

"Big brother, you've already prepared everything. What are you hesitating for?" Sure enough, Mu Rousang's anger soared to the skies, as he angrily glared with a pair of black and white apricot eyes.

"Little sister, don't be angry. I was just thinking that there isn't much money, so ?"

"You want to put it off until the second half of the year." She had already heard from the dicotyls that her teacher was either taking in students after farming in the spring or harvesting in the autumn.

Mu Jinzhi sighed, and patted her head, "I just want to go to school a little later, if you go to school, there will be no one to do the work at home."

Mu Rousang looked at the little boy in front of him with a headache. He was already thirty years old, and had never once treated himself as a real child. Brother, you don't have to worry, the dishes on the ground are not worth much now, and I don't plan on selling them outside anymore. I only have two pigs and dozens of chickens growing at home, if there's nothing else, I'll just embroider at home. "

Mu Jinzhi was worried about more than that, but just as he was about to persuade Mu Rousang, she immediately cut him off, "I will close the door and stay here, waiting for brother to come home from school."

"But, little sister, how can you be the only one in the family ?"

"Brother, didn't I also come home alone when you went out to beg?"

Mu Jinzhi thought, how can that be the same as the fact that his family had many valuable things in the past?

"Brother, think about it. You are only trying to read earlier, even Tong Sheng did not dare to bully me like he did in the past." In the Great Yan Dynasty, they had to register and register at the yamen if they wanted to take the exam.

Mu Jinzhi thought about it again and again, but still couldn't come up with a good way to persuade her. He also felt that what she said made sense, "Then brother will wake up every morning and finish cleaning the pigsty first."

Mu Rousang's worry for her finally subsided. She was waiting for Mu Jinzhi to teach her how to read so she didn't want to be blind.

As the siblings were having their day of discussion, there was a knock on the door.

"Is Mu Jinzhi home?" A woman's voice sounded, with a hint of gentleness in it.

"Who?" Mu Jinzhi stopped at the door. This voice did not sound like it belonged to the Eldest Aunt.

"I am dicotyls's mother." the woman whispered from the doorway.

Mu Rousang felt that it was unbelievable. The wife of the villager who slaughtered pigs? The Chusu who had a tough face and an arm thicker than a human leg? She opened the door and saw Aunt Zhu standing there with a small bamboo basket over her shoulder and a smile on her face.

Mu Jinzhi quickly led her in, "Aunt Zhu, why are you here?" The dicotyls's mother sat on a stool on the stairs and looked around the courtyard. She was secretly surprised, even though she had cleaned up the entire house at such a young age, she didn't show it on her face at all. She waved at Mu Rousang, "Little girl, let my aunt see, I also rarely go out.

What did that mean? The two siblings did not rush to her house to beg for food, right? She was unhappy and smiled, "Did Aunt Zhu come for something today?"

Didn't I hear that your brother is going to the school? I heard that your family has a donkey cart and can't you take my dicotyls there every day. Aunt Zhu was not angry, and directly stated his intention for coming here.

Were they in a hurry to take advantage? Do I know her very well? She turned to look at Mu Jinzhi.

Seeing her looking over, Mu Jinzhi stood out and said, "Aunt Zhu, I and dicotyls are considered classmates, if he was willing to come over in the morning to head to the Academy with me, it would be fine."

"Thank you so much, I knew you siblings would be sensible." The Aunt Zhu replied with a smile.

Mu Rousang felt very uncomfortable in her heart, who was this person? But now that her brother had agreed to it, she wouldn't let him down.

"Aunt's family doesn't have anything, but pork is often eaten. This, your Uncle Zhu just helped someone else kill a pig this morning, and seeing that the pork head is still fresh, I brought over for you two to taste." Aunt Zhu took out about half a kilogram of pig head meat and gave it to Mu Rousang.

"Silly child, go get a basket and put it away. I still have a lot of work to do at home, so I have to go back early to do it. "

Seeing the Aunt Zhu walking out, Mu Rousang frowned as he looked at Mu Jinzhi.

"Little sister, are you blaming me for agreeing to Aunt Zhu? Do you think she's taking advantage of us? "

Isn't it? Mu Rousang rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Sister, you are still young, how can I live with you in this village and cut off all the relationships in this village?" Left and right big brother are alone to drive the donkey cart there, so it would be more convenient for them to have a companion to go to school together. "

Mu Rousang's mind suddenly became clear, "Big brother is right." Thinking about it, Mu Jinzhi was definitely a person who was born and raised in another world.

After a few days, the two siblings took a bag of snacks bought in town to visit the village chief, and asked him to open the letter of introduction for them. The next morning, Mu Jinzhi took the ceremony of becoming his disciple, and drove the little donkey cart to the next village.

When he reached the foot of the slope, he looked back at the small mud hut on the hillside. In the morning, the golden sunlight was shining on it, shining on the dew on the roof, you could vaguely see a small pink figure in the grass, a bird had woken up early in the morning, Mu Jinzhi's eyebrows had a look of worry on them, little sister, brother will definitely do his best to protect you, he stretched out his hand and brandished the donkey's whip, facing the morning sun, and chased the little donkey up the mud path of the village.
