The Little Landlord of Transmigration

Sitting in the room were the aunt and the second aunt, who were the main characters who had a falling out with Xu Lingyuan last time, and the children who followed them were all under the age of eight. Fruits and candied fruits, eaten, uneaten, finished, and uneaten, were everywhere, but they sat there drinking tea and laughing on their own, as if they hadn't seen anything, and didn't care about the fourth aunt Distressed face.

"Come back, have you eaten yet? You child, be polite to me, and I will be gone in a blink of an eye. Come in and have a rest." The fourth aunt hurried forward to greet them when they came back. road.

"I ate outside, and I walked around for a while." Xu Lingyuan said as he walked into the house, but after entering, there was no place to sit, because the porcelain was placed higher, and the chairs were taken by those children to step up up.He didn't speak for a moment, just watched indifferently.

When they saw Xu Lingyuan coming in with a group of children, they were stunned for a moment, and then they didn't seem to intend to talk to him, but when they saw the fourth aunt being so affectionate to him, they felt that they had been slighted. It's all cooling down.

"Boom!" Just as they were in such a stalemate, they suddenly heard the sound of a chair falling to the ground, followed by the cry of a child, which attracted their attention.

It turned out that a little boy fell to the ground with a chair. Fortunately, the chair was not high and it seemed that there was no serious problem.But after seeing his face clearly, looking at his little face with tears, Xu Lingyuan wanted to laugh a little unkindly, thinking that there would be such a coincidence, he had only seen him twice, and Both times he was wrestling.

"Does it hurt from the fall? You are not allowed to climb so high, but you want to climb, are you happy now? If you want to eat, don't you ask others to help you? For such a little thing, it's not worth the money if it breaks. "The second aunt hugged him distressedly and looked up and down, and said in a reprimanded tone, and then angered Han Sheng on the other side: "Why are you so clumsy, you can't even look down on a child. You don’t even want your wages.”

"Okay, as long as the child is fine, don't be so angry." The aunt sitting on the side persuaded, then motioned to the servants on the side to bring the children over, and said to the fourth aunt: "We It’s been long enough, so don’t bother me if you still have something to do, and don’t forget to tell the fourth brother when he comes back, he’ll send it over early tomorrow, they’re all regular customers, it’s always bad to delay.”

"Fourth aunt, is this a big deal? I need someone to come over and inform you." Xu Lingyuan asked pretending not to understand.

"This..." Fourth Aunt looked both ways, a little embarrassed, not knowing how to speak.

"Isn't it just a new thing for a while, and what big business can there be? With your knowledge, I don't think there is much to hope for if the second brother hands over the family business to you in the future." The second aunt who was still angry He glanced at him angrily, and said something indiscriminately.

"What do you say, just take care of each family's affairs, why bother to worry about that." The aunt gave the second aunt a dissatisfied look, and then said to the fourth aunt in a good voice: "We are just I just want to help you spread the word, and you know that our customers are not short of spare money, and if they get it, they can be regarded as taking care of your business."

"They are not short of money, but we are not so rich and powerful. Since it is no problem to you, please tell them that they are welcome to buy if they eat. Small business can't afford this kind of favor." Speaking of this, Xu Lingyuan directly Said.

"Why do you meddle in the affairs of adults, don't say you are still a child, even if you are a real adult and become a family, you can't take care of the affairs here, fourth sibling, you can also say something." The second aunt is not as serious as the aunt Holding back, seeing Xu Lingyuan speaking impolitely, he immediately said in a high-pitched voice.

"Ling Yuan is right, we are a small business, and we don't want to get rich and rich, so I won't bother you." The fourth aunt gritted her teeth and said under their pressure.

"What do you mean by that? We are so kind that we are no longer human. We have already made an agreement with them. Do you want us to pay for it ourselves?" The second aunt reacted for a while, and then He couldn't see the child in his arms, so he immediately changed his face and asked.

"Fourth brother and sister, it's your fault. We don't have any objections if you want to get close to him, but business is business after all, so we can't be so confused. What does he know about whether you are losing money or not? He really knows He has become a boy who recruits money." I didn't expect the fourth aunt to reject them because of Xu Lingyuan's words. They promised many people, and it is impossible not to send them away, but if there is no free one to get, they can only make up for themselves. Thinking of this , the aunt can't be polite anymore.

"I can't afford to be a lucky boy, but it really has something to do with me whether the store loses money or not. I told my fourth aunt the recipe for making preserved fruits. They are kind-hearted and don't want to take it for nothing. Since I If you get benefits, you should be qualified to speak, right?" Xu Lingyuan said frankly, not wanting to entangle with them anymore.

"Hmph, do you think we are three-year-olds? Can you read business classics?" The second aunt obviously didn't believe it.

"If that's the case, why didn't you hear your father mention it? Do you have to hide your heart from your own family?" The aunt was also a little surprised.

"External heart? There are no outsiders here. Where did the external heart come from? You also said that this is worthless. What is there to bother dad? Since I proposed it, naturally everything is up to me. From now on In the future, I can't stop Fourth Uncle and the others from giving favors, but I'm just so ignorant, it should be my share, and I must ask for it back." He looked at the ruined things in the room, thinking Pointingly said.

"Hmph, I'm going to wait for the fourth brother to come back and see what he has to say." Jiang was still hot, and the aunt was not moved by his words at all, and sat with a deep expression on her face.

"If you want to wait, just wait. Even if he comes back, we'll say the same thing. No matter how small a business is, there is a cost. I didn't say anything in the past, but from now on, it's nothing to send some food to my family. If someone asks for it again, Just reject it." The fourth aunt said firmly.

"Hmph, I don't know what to do, I want to see what you can save!" Seeing that the always kind fourth aunt also turned her face, the aunt stood up abruptly, and after saying this, she took the lead in leading the crowd. After leaving, the rest of the people didn't say anything. After a while, the room became much more empty.

"Scared you? Sit down and rest." The fourth aunt said to the few people who had been silent all this time, and then said to Xu Lingyuan with a worried face: "Since everything has been said now, you should go back and talk to Xu Lingyuan." Your father said yes, but if they wait until they go to talk first, there may be some troubles."

"Just waiting for fourth uncle to come back..." Xu Lingyuan nodded, then said again.

"You don't need to worry about this. We have seen through these years that thankless things can't be done. If it weren't for these preserved fruits, they would rarely think of us once a year. That's fine, your fourth uncle wouldn't be like this Confused, I will push you out because of such a group of fools." Fourth Aunt comforted him.

Seeing what she said, Xu Lingyuan didn't say anything more. He had done everything, and it was useless to think about it.So they stayed for a while, and when they saw the mess all over the place, they helped clean it up, and then went to Xu's house, explained the situation to Xu's father, and went back directly.

Compared with the situation in the city, life in the country is much more comfortable.Since coming back that time, Xu Lingyuan began to teach them some things in his free time.At the beginning, out of freshness and curiosity, they were more serious, but after ten days or so, most of them couldn't sit still, especially the boys.

After announcing the holiday, Agui did not rush out like before, but asked him to discuss with a mysterious face.It turned out that he and a group of children planned to go out to play the next day, but the difference was that they would spend the whole day outside and didn’t plan to go back for lunch. In order to prevent the adults at home from finding out, they decided to lie and say that they were here with him. , and invite him to go with him.And asked him to bring an iron pot, and before he could ask further questions, he ran out to chase other people.

"Are you planning to cook here? But why didn't anyone bring rice?" He and A Qi rushed to the agreed place the next day with the pot, looked at the things brought by others, and asked inexplicably.

They are all in a hidden place on the river embankment. The reason why it is called hidden is because the terrain here is relatively low. If you look from the outside, you can't see anyone there.At this time, there were twelve people, all of the same age. Looking at the things they brought, Xu Lingyuan thought that they were going for a picnic, but the cooking tools were basically complete, but no ingredients were found.Is it to collect materials locally?But when he looked around, there were rice fields, and it was not easy to break a piece of corn.

"If you want to eat rice, why bother to come out?" Agui said contemptuously, and then began to divide the work regardless of his doubts.

According to Agui's arrangement, they were divided into six groups.They are respectively responsible for digging stoves, looking for firewood, catching fish, breaking corn, digging peanuts, and fishing shrimp.Seeing Xu Lingyuan's surprised expression when he heard about shrimp fishing, Agui waved his hand and handed over the task to him and Aqi.

It turned out that not far from them, there were some ponds that did not know how they were formed. Because of the low terrain, they connected with the river.The water was less than one meter deep, and it was crystal clear, but against the dead branches and leaves at the bottom of the pond, I couldn't even see a fish, let alone a shrimp.Since he didn't understand anything, he could only watch A Qi busy at this moment.

They didn't even bring fishing rods, so they had to use local materials for everything.I saw that A Qi first broke two branches that were as thick as an index finger and more than one meter long, and then tied the hemp rope brought from home. After finishing these, he went to the river to pick up two mussels and came back. Come out and tie it firmly with hemp rope, and then use these two rough fishing rods to catch shrimp in the seemingly empty pond.

There was nothing when I first cast it.Only after a while, a miraculous thing appeared. Around the clam meat, a group of constantly testing shrimps slowly appeared. Their bodies were basically completely transparent, and they were not small in size. The claws are thin and long, very similar to the shrimps in Qi Baishi's paintings.The reason why I didn't see it before was probably because they were too well disguised.

These seemingly smart things, once they encounter delicious food, their reactions will be much slower. When they grab the meat and start eating, they will lift up the fishing rod quickly and steadily, basically it will not be empty. If you are lucky, you can even catch three or four at a time.

When Xu Lingyuan finally had his fill of fun and returned with the bucket of shrimp, the others had already returned.Agui, who went to catch the fish, even cooked the fish and was preparing to roast it on the fire. Seeing that they came back, he originally planned to make a few sarcastic remarks, but seeing that they had a good harvest, he held back and dismissed the fish. After taking a person to the river to wash the shrimp, he continued to prepare his grilled fish.

Maybe it was because Xu Lingyuan didn't know how to do it. They didn't assign him any tasks after that, and he was happy to watch their troubles.They first grilled the fish with an open fire, then threw the corn with the husks into the ashes at the bottom of the stove, boiled the washed peanuts on top, and then ate the grilled fish while constantly trying to eat the peanuts while they were cooking. until cooked through.After cooking, in the process of washing the pot and adding water, remove the corn at the bottom of the stove, remove the charred shell, and then turn it over the fire until it is all tender inside and charred on the outside. , Put the pot on and continue to boil the shrimp.

"Little Xiucai, let me eat more. You can swim if you eat shrimp. You won't be a landlubber in the future." After the shrimp was cooked, Agui knew that he couldn't grab them before they started robbing them, so he gave them to him first. Scooped some up on fresh corn husks.It's just that compared to the tender corn, the shrimp boiled in salt water is really less attractive.

"Who said you can swim after eating shrimp?" Xu Lingyuan asked while gnawing on corn.

"That's what adults say, don't you think we can swim after eating?" one of the children said.

"They also said that eating fish roe will make you stupid, and eating chicken feet will make you write like ghosts, so after we study, we are not allowed to eat it. Little Xiucai, do you think this is true?" Another one was a little depressed explain.

"Of course not." Xu Lingyuan said dumbfoundedly.

"But that's what the adults say." They were all dubious, but Xu Lingyuan felt that their suspicion was not because of his words, but because of those things that were not allowed to eat anymore.

"There's really no relationship between them. You see, I've eaten shrimp, so I can't swim either?" Looking at their rather tangled faces, Xu Lingyuan felt that he could teach a lot besides reading and writing.

In the end, they didn't know who to listen to, but since they couldn't figure it out, they focused their attention on eating again, yelling and grabbing it.

"Let's eat it for you." After Xu Lingyuan ate a few shrimps, he handed the rest to A Qi who had been peeling peanuts instead of grabbing them.

"It's a bit irritating to eat, but I still like to eat corn." Seeing him looking at him, Xu Lingyuan was afraid that he would not pick it up, so he found a reason and said, in fact, the shells of these wild shrimps are a bit hard, but it's not that exaggerated. .

A Qi hesitated for a while, and finally took it, but gave him all the peanuts he was peeling.He was not polite, took it and ate it, and when he continued to gnaw the corn with both hands, suddenly something was delivered to his mouth, he subconsciously felt that it was given by A Qi, so he didn't think much about it He opened his mouth to take it, but after knowing what it was, he hesitated for a while, and then swallowed it without thinking about chewing.

He looked up at A Qi, sure enough, A Qi brought over another peeled shrimp, although the other's action was very natural, but he was embarrassed to take it again.It's just that Ah Qi saw that he didn't open his mouth, he was slightly taken aback, then slowly retracted his hands and said: "Hands are not dirty."
