The carriage carrying Chen Zumo's coffin, after the uneasiness of the Pi family and the unwillingness of Chai Yuyuan to go to the capital, the villagers of Qinjia Village, who entered Beijing to congratulate the two small county lords of Shengwangfu, also boarded the big ship to return to their hometowns and returned with a full load.

After Xiaocao sent everyone away, he rushed to the fourth village non-stop, and lay on the side of the south fence wall, waiting for Li Housheng with Rhubarb.

Steward Tian followed, "Did the second girl get a letter and come to see Li Si eating insects?" ”

Xiaocao wondered, "What kind of worm does he eat, do you know?" ”

Tian Steward smiled unkindly, "It's not that I know, it's the little honey worm on the leaves." Master Li asked him to kill insects, and if he couldn't kill them, let him lick them clean one by one, and everyone was waiting. ”

Xiaocao sighed, "Li Si definitely won't eat it, he didn't find anyone to help?" ”

Steward Tian smiled, "Li Si gave Brother Hanhao ten taels of silver and asked him to help exterminate insects." ”

It's a lot of money! Xiaocao wondered, "What about the gardener in Lijiazhuang?" ”

"Master Li thought that there were too many people in the village, so he took a large number of them, and Li Jiazhuang only left a few stuffy gourds to work." Steward Tian shook his head and sighed.

There are many insects in the fields of Lijiazhuang, and the fourth village also suffers, and Wang Hanhao has put a lot of effort into exterminating the insects in Lijiazhuang.

While they were talking, Li Xiran appeared. A coarse cloth dress dissolved his majesty as a first-class official, but it was difficult to hide the elegance of his scholar, seeing him, Xiaocao couldn't help but think of her father who had just died, which affected her mood a little.

Seeing the grass and rhubarb on the other side of the fence, Li Si, who didn't want to lick the insects, seemed to have seen a savior, shook his arms and shouted, "Little grass girl, rhubarb, I haven't seen you for many days, it's always good?" ”

"Okay."

"Wang!" The rhubarb, who didn't watch the child at home today, screamed especially loudly.

"Uncle Li, Xiaocao has a greeting for you." Xiaocao got up and bent her knees.

"Wang!"

Chen Zumo is dead, the Qin family has not been affected, even Xiaocao is so vigorous, Chen Xiaonuan's ability is really getting bigger and bigger. Li Xiran walked to the fence and looked at Xiaocao's smiling little round face through the fence, "What is Xiaocao looking for Uncle to do?" ”

"Don't do anything, Uncle Li, is Brother Housheng at home?" Xiaocao directly explained his intentions. Her sister said that Master Li is not easy to fool, just say whatever he has here, don't go around the bend with him, otherwise he will be surrounded by him and lose face.

Li Xiran nodded, "Li Si." ”

"Yes."

Li Sisa, who didn't want to eat insects, went back to invite the second young master, Li Xiran continued to talk to Xiaocao, "Are the two little county lords good?" ”

"Whew!" Rhubarb accosted first.

Speaking of the two little nieces, Xiaocao's mood was extremely good, "I have grown up a lot and gained weight, and they smiled at Xiaocao this morning." ”

Xiaocao's smile shows that she and the Qin family are very comfortable in Shengwang's Mansion, and it seems that Chen Xiaonuan and Gui Taifei, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, get along well. Li Xiran bowed his head, "Congratulations." ”

Xiaocao smiled and bent her eyes, "My mother said that after Xiaoye and Xiaoyou are full moon, they will move to the fifth village to live for a while, and then Uncle will be able to see them." They are the most beautiful little dolls Xiaocao has ever seen in her life. ”

How did the elegant names given by the saint to the two county lords become Xiao Ye and Xiao You? It sounds like a peer with Xiao Nuan Xiaocao.

Li Xiran saw Xiaocao's smile, and also raised a few traces of expectation.

When Li Housheng came over, he was accompanied by a young and elegant man with a short beard. Xiaocao recognized that this was Li Runsheng, the eldest son of Li Xiran, who was worried about returning home because of his grandmother's death.

She greeted the Li brothers very politely, and Li Xiran called the eldest son to catch insects, leaving the second son to talk to Xiaocao.

Li Runsheng looked back and saw the second brother and the second girl of the Chen family sitting and chatting across the fence, curious about what they would talk about.

Li Xiran said, "Xiaocao made a special trip to find Housheng, probably planning to conspire with him to do something that seems to be unruly but very attractive to Housheng." ”

Li Runsheng glanced back again, and saw that the second brother, who had always been shy and silent, was actually smiling very happily, so he turned around and reminded his father, "The second brother has always been self-denying, and it doesn't hurt to relax a little, just don't affect the reputation of the second girl of the Chen family." ”

"The two girls of the Chen family are not ordinary people, they have always been upright, and they will not and disdain to do such unseemly means." Li Xiran paused, and said, "Xiaocao is still young, if she can be happy with Housheng in two years, she can't ask for it for her father." ”

"Got it." Li Runsheng had never heard his father think so highly of a girl, and he couldn't help but have some interest in the infamous Princess Sheng and the innocent Chen Er girl.

Ding Wei is also boring to read in the house, why don't you go out with your father to plow the fields and watch the fourth village?

"Brother Housheng, what do you think?" Xiaocao was on guard against Li Xiang's father and son eavesdropping, and at the same time encouraged Li Housheng.

Li Housheng's eyes were full of struggle, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate......"

"You don't want to?" Xiaocao asked rhetorically.

Li Housheng shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to, if my father knows......"

"My sister will give me fifty taels of silver every month in the future, and if you miss this village, there will be no such shop, so you have to make up your mind as soon as possible. You are nineteen years old this year, and you will soon be old. "Little grass balabala.

Getting old soon? Li Housheng twitched the corners of his mouth, "Actually, this matter has little to do with money......

"Is it related or not?" Xiaocao asked rhetorically.

Li Housheng......

"Yes."

That's it! Xiaocao's little hand crossed the fence wall, patted Li Housheng's shoulder, and said very righteously, "Brother Housheng, think about it, wait until you think about it carefully and then look for me, I will have fifty taels every month in the future." ”

Li Housheng was surprised, "Your sister really gave you so much silver?" ”

Xiaocao nodded, "My sister said yes." ”

His sister's monthly rate is five taels per month, and Xiaocao is only ten years old, so Princess Sheng will give her fifty taels, aren't you afraid that she will use it indiscriminately or develop a bad habit of being lavish?

Li Housheng persuaded, "Fifty taels a month is not a small amount...... his father is the prime minister, and the monthly salary is only 400 yuan.

"yes." Who made my sister rich, Xiaocao nodded vigorously, "We will move back next month, Brother Housheng will come to me when he thinks about it." ”

After Xiaocao finished speaking, he jumped away with the rhubarb.

Li Runsheng curiously came over and asked the second brother who was in a daze, "What is Miss Chen looking for you?" ”

Li Housheng said truthfully, "She got a sum of money and wanted to ask me if I needed help." ”

Li Runsheng choked, "The second brother told her that you are short of money?" ”

Li Housheng shook his head, "It's not that I'm short of money, it's something I want to do, Xiaocao is still young, thinking that I am short of silver so I haven't moved for a long time." ”

"What's the matter?" Li Runsheng asked.

Li Housheng shook his head, "It's not worth mentioning." ”

Li Runsheng......

It's no wonder it's not worth mentioning!

Xiaocao jumped out of the fourth village, got into the carriage and ordered, "Go to Longyu Lane." ”

Liannian asked, "Do you want to buy steamed buns?" ”

Xiaocao shook her head with a smile, "Go get some tea." ”

When I arrived at Longyu Lane, Xiaocao lifted the curtain to see the fragrant rouge shop that was sealed, but saw a figure flashing in the alley, and the figure was very familiar!

She jumped out of the car and ran after the figure, and several of the guards who protected her followed, "Second girl, what's wrong?" ”
