After picking up a lucky girl, all the beasts line up to come to your door

Qian wiped her hands on her apron and said, "Mom, I'll go now."

"Let's get this done sooner rather than later. Before the weather gets completely cold, let's quickly build our new house."

After saying that, she went out.

Mu Baobao originally wanted to follow him out, but when she thought of the roasted sweet potatoes in the stove, she moved her butt back to the chair.

"Grandma, are we going to eat meat again tonight?"

Ever since we kept a wild boar at home, we have been able to eat meat often.

Zhu smiled and jokingly asked, "Tired of eating meat?"

Baby Mu shook his head and said, "No, there's no way I'll ever get tired of eating meat."

"Grandma, I was wondering if we should store some more meat."

Mrs. Zhu didn't quite understand what she meant. "Baby, we still have a lot of meat at home. Why are you saving more meat?"

Mu Baobao counted on his fingers and said, "Our barbecue business is getting better and better, so we must be demanding more meat."

"I also thought that putting some meat in the sweet potato steamed cake would make it taste better."

Zhu was amused. "There's no rush for the meat. Fresh meat is better."

"But we need to store more vegetables at home."

"In the middle of winter, vegetables are the hardest to come by."

Mu Baobao hummed, "Nana, there aren't many vegetables in the mountains."

She doesn't like vegetables very much because they are not as tasty as meat.

She likes to eat meat.

When Zhu saw her frowning face, she knew what she was thinking. Children don’t like to eat vegetables.

"Let's not touch the vegetables in the mountains."

She had an idea. "I've asked your eldest and second aunts to harvest some vegetables. They should be enough for our family to eat during the winter."

Mubaobao said "oh", she wouldn't eat much vegetables anyway.

As the grandfather and grandson were talking, they heard someone calling Zhu.

"Mu family, are you there?"

Zhu couldn't tell who the voice belonged to, and guessed it was someone she wasn't familiar with, or someone from another village.

If he was from another village, why would he come to her house?

She was more cautious and said, "Baby, stay in the kitchen. Grandma will go out to check on the situation."

In order to bake sweet potatoes, Mubao resisted the urge to follow her out the door. "Okay, grandma, I'll stay in the kitchen."

Zhu gave a few more instructions and then came to the gate.

As soon as she arrived at the gate, she saw a strange middle-aged woman standing there, smiling at her.

"You are……?"

She looked confused. She really didn't know this woman. She seemed to be from another village.

Why did this guy from another village come to her house?

The middle-aged woman rubbed her hands, the smile on her face becoming brighter and brighter. "I heard that if I want to study in your village, the best way is to find your family."

She was a little embarrassed and said, "Well, I have two children who want to go to school."

"After much deliberation, I finally want to go to school in your village."

It’s not that her family is picky, but the private schools in other villages not only don’t accept little girls, but there are also many other problems.

Zhu had heard that many people from other villages wanted to come to the village to study, and she even asked her relatives and friends in the village.

However, no one asked her family, and no one came to her house.

"This... Big sister, it's not that I don't want to help you, but if you want to go to school in our village, you have to follow the rules of our village."

The middle-aged woman nodded repeatedly, "I know, I know."

"I was thinking of coming to your house first to inquire about the situation, and then asking your village chief for information."

"I heard that the private school in your village accepts little girls to study?"

Now, Zhu understood her thoughts, "Yes, I collected it."

“However, there are many children in our village who don’t go to school, so we may not necessarily accept children from other villages.”

Many families in the village are waiting for their own children to go to school, so they would never want children from other villages to grab the places.

The middle-aged woman said hurriedly, "I will follow the rules."

She sighed, "You don't know, the private schools in other villages won't accept little girls."

"My family thought that after two years of schooling, our daughter would be able to recognize some words and not have to be blind like me."

Girls who can read and write will find it easier to get married in the future and will understand more principles.

This was the first time Zhu met a family that was willing to let their daughter go to school, except for her family.

After all, her family has always valued girls over boys.

"There are several girls attending the private school in our village."

She paused and continued, "I think you should go ask Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng directly."

"If Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng are willing to accept it, then our village will have no objection."

She is not as accurate in judging people as Mr. Cheng and Dr. Deng.

The most important thing is that this matter should be decided by Mr. Cheng and Dr. Deng, not by her as an outsider.

After getting the promise, the middle-aged woman thanked him repeatedly and went to Cheng Zishi's home as she had learned.

Just as Zhu watched her leave, she saw Zhang's maid coming in with something in her hand.

"Zhang, why are you here?" She smiled.

The woman from the Zhang family stuffed a basket of eggs into her arms.

She frowned, but there was a smile in her tone, "You are not allowed to be polite to me."

"If it weren't for your family taking my family into business, we wouldn't have the good life we ​​have today. Please keep these eggs."

Zhu thought about it and didn't bother to be polite with her. "Come in and sit down."

"Why are you coming to my house now?"

The Zhang family is also busy with the autumn harvest during this period.

However, Zhang's son is not very busy with the autumn harvest. He is mainly busy selling barbecue.

Mrs. Zhang waved her hand to indicate that it was not necessary.

She looked around first, then lowered her voice and said, "I heard from a relative that the entire Qian family is missing."

Zhu's eyelids twitched when she heard this, and she quickly asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

"Why did the entire Qian family disappear out of nowhere?"

Could it be that the Qian family is planning something?

The Zhang family's mother-in-law said, "It is said that the Qian family's husband went into the mountains and never came back, so the daughter-in-law took the children into the mountains to check on him, but he didn't come back either."

"After the old couple from the Qian family came to your house to cause trouble, they disappeared. It is said that they may have fallen into the water and drowned."

"I'm here to tell you, your family should be careful to prevent being schemed against by the Qian family or their relatives and friends."

Zhu thanked him.

She was puzzled. What on earth was the Qian family doing?

But she was more cautious and wanted to ask someone about the Qian family's affairs in case the Qian family really plotted against her family.

at dusk.

Cheng Zishi and Doctor Deng came to Mu Laosan's house for dinner.

The yard was already filled with the aroma of meat and the faint smell of roasted sweet potatoes.

"This time it's braised pork." Doctor Deng smelled it and smiled. "I'll have a couple of sips later."

Cheng Zishi laughed, "Doctor Deng, if you want to drink, just say so. There's no need to make excuses."

Doctor Deng laughed heartily. "Then I won't make excuses next time."

"Would you like a couple of drinks tonight?"

Cheng Zishi smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll have a drink with Doctor Deng."

As soon as the two entered the main room, they saw Mu Yuyu and Mu Yueyue standing in front of them with conflicted looks on their faces.
