Maybe we can start with this young uncle. A scholar’s ​​brain should be very useful, right?

.....................

The lunch was as sumptuous as yesterday. The bricklayer felt very embarrassed and said that it was enough to eat and work. Even if there was meat at home, he couldn't do this every day.

Old Mrs. Liu said that how could they come here to work without treating you to a good meal? They would not be so stingy as to do such a thing.

Seeing that the Yuan family insisted, the bricklayer didn't say anything more.

After feeding Yaoyao, Old Lady Liu held Yaoyao in her arms and took Guoan back to the house.

Guoan was chewing a peach in his hand. Old Lady Liu wasn't surprised when she saw him. She just warned him, "An'an, you must never tell anyone that you ate the fruit."

"Yeah, Nana, the fruit is so delicious. My sister even put one on the table." Guoan nodded vigorously. After saying this, he held the peach and started to eat it in small bites.

Old Mrs. Liu looked at the peaches on the table that were still dripping with water. The fruits were very large, with fuzzy hairs on the skin, and gave off bursts of sweet fruity fragrance.

He cut the fruit in half, walked out of the house, found Ye Wan who was busy in the kitchen, and handed the other half of the peach to Ye Wan.

"Ye Wan, eat this peach quickly, it's so sweet."

When Ye Wan took the peach, he immediately thought that the fruit was given by Yaoyao. A gentle smile appeared on his face, "Mom, is this from Yaoyao?"

"Yes, Yaoyao is treating us to some fruit." Old Mrs. Liu nodded.

When Old Lady Liu returned to the house, she was shocked again. She saw a pile of peaches on the table, each with water droplets on it, and the room was filled with a rich fruity aroma.

Oh my God, Yaoyao gave her so many peaches in just a short time.

Then the sound of "dong gudong" and "dong dong" continued to be heard, and the whole room was almost drowned by peaches.

The instigator was lying on the bed, chewing the fat feet with great enthusiasm, and occasionally pulling out his feet to smile at Old Lady Liu...

Where should I put so many peaches?

The cellar is not finished yet and the mason is still working in the backyard. Wouldn't it be a revelation if we openly go to get a basket to load it?

As soon as this thought came to mind, the room that was almost flooded with peaches became empty again in the blink of an eye.

Old Lady Liu was startled again...

Yaoyao was holding a piece of silver in her hand and yelling at Old Lady Liu.

Old Lady Liu immediately understood that Yaoyao wanted her to take the peaches to the town to exchange them for silver.

"Grandma knows." Old Mrs. Liu picked up Yaoyao from the bed and kissed her chubby cheek.

.......

In the evening, the bricklayers finished their work, and Yuan Laoer drove a ox cart to pick up Shen Chulan from the town.

At the same time, Yuan Laosi, who was at the Hanlin Academy, also came back in a ox cart.

Old Lady Liu was very happy to see her youngest son back. She rushed to Old Fourth Yuan with Yaoyao in her arms and asked, "Why are you back today?"

"Mom, the academy is closed tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Yuan Laosi said with a smile.

Shen Chulan took Yaoyao from Old Lady Liu's arms. She missed her daughter very much after not seeing her for a day.

"Come on, come in. Are you tired of studying these days?" Old Mrs. Liu pulled Yuan Laosi into the house.

The first two times she went to the town to deliver things to Yuan Laosi, Mrs. Liu didn't have time to take a good look at Yuan Laosi. Now that her son is back, she has to take a good look at whether Yuan Laosi has lost weight or gained weight.

Yuan Laosi let Old Lady Liu hold him and spin him around.

"Mom, I'm doing well in the academy. I'm well fed, warmly dressed, and I've gained a lot of weight." Yuan Laosi said with a smile.

Old Lady Liu shook her head. "How are you fat? I'll make you some chicken soup tonight. Studying is very demanding on your brain, so you need to replenish your energy."

"Okay, it's all up to you."

This time, Yuan Laosi came back and bought some things, including brushes and ink for the three boys, Guoan's tiger gloves, and Yaoyao's tiger-head hat.

The boys were particularly happy to receive the gifts from their uncle. This was the first time they received a gift.

Yaoyao held the tiger-head hat in her chubby hands and looked at the lifelike tiger head embroidered on the hat with a puzzled look. It looked like a white tiger.

Shen Chulan mistakenly thought that Yaoyao wanted to wear a tiger-head hat, so she put the tiger-head hat on Yaoyao's head. Her chubby face, matched with the lifelike tiger-head hat, blinked her big round eyes, and looked tiger-like, which made everyone present fall in love with her.

"My sister looks so cute in this hat." Guowang came up and started praising her.

Guoxing nodded vigorously, "Sister is so cute."

"Yaoyao is our sister, so she must be cute," Guoping said.

Such a lovely sister is theirs, not Xiao Ci's, this is a fact.

The dinner was naturally sumptuous, prepared by Shen Chulan. There were braised pork elbows, sweet and sour pork ribs, steamed fish... The table was full of dishes, and Yuan Laosi's bowl was piled high by Old Lady Liu.

There was also a large bowl of chicken soup with a chicken head on top.

Old Mrs. Liu believes that it is better to nourish the brain with brain, no matter what kind of brain it is, as long as it is a brain.

Yuan Laosi said helplessly: "Mom, that's enough. I can't eat anymore. I'm very full."

"Eat more. You've been too frugal in the academy and you've become thin and hungry. I'm your mother, and don't I know how much you weigh? Eat quickly!" Old Lady Liu glared at Yuan Laosi.

Yuan Laosi had no choice but to bear the heavy burden of his mother's love and ate three bowls of rice and a large bowl of chicken soup with chicken heads in tears.

During the meal, Shen Chulan shared a good news with her family, that is, her monthly salary increased to twenty taels starting this month.

When this news came out, the Yuan family was overjoyed.

Two consecutive salary increases show that Shen Chulan is highly appreciated by her boss.

The Yuan family was sincerely happy for her.

Old man Yuan happily took out a jar of wine from the cabinet, poured a glass for each of his four sons, and the whole family celebrated.

After dinner, Old Lady Liu held Yaoyao in her arms and walked around the yard to digest the food. She walked to the gate of the yard and stretched her neck to look at the carriage parked at the gate of Lu Mansion, with a strange look on her face...

"Chu Lan, your boss came to Lihua Village to see Mr. Lu today?"

Shen Chulan, who was sewing clothes in the yard, looked up and replied, "No, the boss has been in Qingshui Building all day today and has not gone out."

After receiving Shen Chulan's answer, Old Lady Liu nodded and said, "That must be another wealthy family. I don't know what Mr. Lu is busy with these days. I can't see him when I go to the Lu Mansion. And that foodie A Li hasn't been seen recently either."

"Maybe Mr. Lu is busy with business outside." Shen Chulan responded.

Old Mrs. Liu thought so too. A wealthy family like Mr. Lu must have a very big business.

Before going to bed, Old Mrs. Liu called her son and daughter-in-law to her room, saying that she had something to say.

Yuan Lao Da, Yuan Lao Er, Yuan Lao San and the others all looked puzzled. What on earth did they want to say?
