Take A Husband For Farming

"Cough!" Lady Liu hurriedly coughed to hint at her.

Liu Guixiang stuck out her tongue and made a face at Liu Xiucai, who had a sullen expression.

"Hmph, look, it"s all because of your pampering." Liu Xiucai puffed his beard and glared at his.

Seeing that he had succeeded, Mu Jinzhi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He pulled Mu Rousang who was standing foolishly by the side and hurriedly kowtowed three times: "Father, Mother Qian."

Liu Xiucai stroked his beard happily, his heart thinking about the Bamboo Leaf Green Wine that Mu Jinzhi had gifted him. Taking this foster son in, he reckoned that in the future, Xiao Jiu would not have to stop.

"G.o.dfather, G.o.dmother, I want to bring you two to my house for the new year with my sisters." Mu Jinzhi was relieved, and continued climbing along the pole.

He had thought for a long time before realizing this plan. It didn"t matter that he was a boy, he had done it for Mu Rousang.

Now that he had found a good mother for her, other people would stop scolding her for having a mother and not having a mother.

"En, that won"t do. My wife, why don"t you invite these two to my house for the new year? The family will have a happy new year." Naturally, Liu Xiucai would not trouble the two children.

New Year"s Eve was not like other days when people ate and went out with their friends. There were eight dishes on the table, from meat to vegetables. There were many dishes that could not be eaten on the first day of the new year, so there were many that could not be eaten.

"Don"t turn me down, just recognize me as your G.o.dfather, and your G.o.dmother will have the duty to teach your sister." Don"t turn me down, just recognize me as your G.o.dfather, and your G.o.dmother will have the duty to teach your sister. Seeing that Mu Jinzhi still wanted to persuade him, the Liu Xiucai quickly explained.

"That"s right, your G.o.dfather is right. These things need to be prepared normally, and it will be difficult to prepare everything on the spur of the moment. Why don"t you come to my house to celebrate the new year? Do you not despise your G.o.dmother for not teaching you well?" Lady Liu"s words were particularly amiable.

"Obedient brat, it"s just that we still have to go worship our ancestor that day …" This sacrifice was a huge matter and the Liu Xiucai could not stop him.

"If that"s not the case, all of you should head to the ancestral grounds early. You should hurry over for lunch and return after having a reunion dinner tonight." In any case, the two villages were not too far apart and the Mu family had their own little donkey cart.

"That"s right, you should have come earlier that day so that I wouldn"t have to stand on tiptoe at the door and wait." Lady Liu smiled.

"Yes sir!" The two siblings respectfully replied.

Mu Rousang could roughly guess Mu Jinzhi"s intentions. She stood at the side obediently without objecting, and after having lunch at Liu Xiucai"s house, the two siblings rushed the donkey cart over to its house.

"Brother, why did you choose the Liu Xiucai"s house?" Mu Rousang sat on the donkey cart and shook her legs.

The Village Head Grandpa"s daughter-in-law only comes out once a year when he is away from home. Although Mister is a bit pedantic, his character is not bad, and Mistress is also a good person, not to mention that he only has two daughters. "

"Oh, brother has guessed right! Mister will definitely agree?!" Mu Rousang blinked her eyes and teased.

"Hehe, you"re just a coward. I"ve said that studying is important, I wouldn"t have gotten you a sister-in-law so early." Mu Jinzhi extended a finger and flicked her forehead.

Mu Rousang stretched out her small hand and rubbed her forehead: "I got it, not to mention, Teacher"s family is considered a scholar, and is a famous person in these seven miles and eight villages."

Mu Jinzhi turned his head to look at Mu Rousang who was seated at the side.

"Big brother, why did you help me find my foster parents?" Mu Rousang secretly despised herself, she could clearly see why she still asked, could she say that she was very happy, she just wanted to hear her brother personally tell her.

"Little sister, we don"t have any elders to teach us, big brother must use his Graduation in the future, little sister must marry someone in the future, I don"t want others to say that little sister has a mother so she can"t be taught."

Mu Jinzhi"s answer was very sad. He unconsciously swung the little donkey whip in his hand as he searched around to find out that other people wouldn"t want to marry an uneducated girl, so their life would only get better and better. In the future, when he becomes an Elementary Scholar, his family"s land would be exempted from a portion of the taxes.

"Big brother, this is indeed a proper G.o.dmother. Do you think we should also bring the village head and Li Zheng to a lively place?"

"Yes, logically speaking, the entire village should be invited to the Flowing Water Seat for three days and three nights. It"s just that it"s not suitable for us to do much in the midst of filial piety. We would like to invite a few familiar people to bear witness."

Mu Jinzhi"s thoughts were no longer restricted to the little mountain village, and his vision became more and more long-term.

"Brother, how about this, we are out of Little Xiang"s house and should have been renovated, let"s wait for the new house to be completed before we officially pay our respects. One is to borrow the time for the renovations and invite the villagers to drink wine to announce this matter. Two, everyone in the village has a witness, no one dares to talk about this in the future." Mu Rousang and Mu Jinzhi went to Li Zheng"s home, and faced the lowest ranking official of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Mu Rousang only treated him with dignity.

He even saw Liu Guizhi"s fiancé, Wei Anping. He was a delicate and pretty youth with fair skin.

Mu Rousang rubbed her nose, she raised her head and looked up at the sky from 45 angles, other than remembering the song "Bright moonlight beside the bed, two pairs of shoes, raise her head and look at the bright moon, thinking about Xiao San". Other than that, she couldn"t think of anything else that was amazing.

Mu Jinzhi was pulled away by Wei Anping, and was the only one left to face the real wife in front of him.

"I"ve often heard big brother say that the Madame Wei is the kindest. Mu Rousang, oh Mu Rousang, you still have to learn this flattery.

The Madame Wei was smiling so hard that even teeth could not see a gap, listening to what Mu Rousang had to say? This was the reputation of her youngest son.

"Yo, not at all. Little girl, your little mouth is rather sweet."

Mu Rousang took out a folded red piece of paper from his chest pocket. There was no other choice, she did not have any gift forms, so she could only fold them together with two pieces of red paper and write down the name of the gift.

As for Li Zheng"s family, they could not be easily dealt with. She pa.s.sed the form of gift to Madame Wei: "Country folk do not understand etiquette, I hope Madame Wei will not dislike it."

Madame Wei only took it over casually. It was just as Mu Rousang had said, the two siblings were from the countryside, while the left and right sides were like two chickens and a few kilograms of eggs.

She opened the slip of paper in a vexatious manner, looking down on it in her heart. Using red paper to deal with it, it seemed that her family situation wasn"t that great.

Mu Rousang carried it to the side and peeked at the Madame Wei from the corner of her eyes. Her originally unconcerned expression became more and more surprised, and Mu Rousang knew this gift was correct.

Just look at this gift list. Other than the usual rice, flour, fish and cured meat, there were three additional muslin s, three pieces of silk, a pair of silver bracelets, an inkstone, a jade pod, five kilograms of beef, a pair of live hens, a pair of live rabbits, ten kilograms of pork, ten kilograms of eggs, and two boxes of snacks.

The Madame Wei"s father-in-law managed several hundreds of people in a few villages and was often close to the county magistrate"s wife. The salute in her hands was considered pretty good even amongst the rich people in the village.

"I never thought that I would still be able to eat beef with wood girl"s blessing this year." Madame Wei was a picky person, the harder it was, the more expensive she was, the more she liked to eat.

The imperial court valued agriculture and trade, and this cow was the most valued by the farmers. The law stipulated that no one was allowed to slaughter a strong cow without permission, and once they found out, they would be executed without question.

Mu Rousang just smiled bashfully: This year, my family helped a man in the capital with some matters, then gave me a few catties of beef. Thinking that my brother is still young, and cannot accept the help of the thing, and hearing that the lady really likes this thing, I quietly brought it here.

Her words were replied carefully, but it did not offend Madame Wei at all.

The smile on Madame Wei"s face became even wider, and unknowingly became more amiable. "Then I won"t be polite, I haven"t eaten this thing for many years, and it"s the young lady from my clan who married into the Prefecture a year ago. He carried several tens of kilograms back for the new year."

"Madam is so lucky! Only Madam has such a good mouth. " No matter how much you wore, you wouldn"t be able to do it.

"Oh? You little girl, you"re just trying to please me, but sadly, both of my girls are married and don"t have an old daughter." The Madame Wei laughed.

The two chatted for a while, before bringing Wei Anping in from the outside, with Mu Jinzhi at the back.

The few of them greeted each other again, and the two siblings bid each other farewell.

"Yo, how can that be? You two stay for dinner." Madame Wei was obviously very satisfied with the annual festival gift s the Mu Clan sent, so she asked the two siblings to stay for dinner.

"Thank you Madam, but my sister and I have been out for a day. My family"s chickens and pigs are really hungry, and I was worried the pigs would bite the wooden fence to pieces." Mu Jinzhi explained the reason why he couldn"t stay half jokingly.

"Alright, you two can go back first. It"s not safe for the two children to travel at night, so you should come back when you have time. My family"s Ping has always praised you for being a good student." Li was looking at the time, seeing that it was getting late, he decided not to leave the two for dinner.

The Madame Wei could only do it, and instructed the people to prepare gifts and place them on the donkey cart, and repeatedly reminded Mu Jinzhi to definitely look for her son to play when he had time, and then impatiently release the two of them.

The two siblings left, and when they reached home, it was already time for the lights to shine. Mu Rousang hurriedly cooked some fried meat, and fried some vegetables to eat.

After Mu Rousang finished her meal, she stood in front of the stove to watch Mu Jinzhi wash the dishes, "Brother, tonight I have to take advantage of the darkness to gift the village chief, Chusu and second aunt their their new year gift."

Mu Jinzhi sighed: "Alright, let"s do as little sister says, tomorrow when we have a lot of people, we can go and give the annual festival gift to big uncle."

If not for the annual festival gift s that were better than Mu Yun"s family, the two siblings would not have sneakily given him festivals while it was dark.

Fortunately, the weather was cold and the snow had just fallen, so Mu Yun and his family"s courtyard door was tightly shut.

The Qin Er family"s gift was ten kilograms of Ciba. The brother and sister pair each had a pair of thin cotton shoes, and two pairs of single cloth shoes, waiting to be worn. Qin Taohua had even embroidered a kernels for Mu Rousang, and made him a scholar"s towel with green bamboo leaves.

On the other hand, what Chusu brought back was not pork, but a brush and paper.

The Village Head"s house was much more particular. Two boxes of snacks, a few new silk flowers, and a book called "Mencius." Although it was still rather old, it should have been written by the Village Head"s youngest son.

However, Mu Jinzhi was extremely happy, he was already learning the [a.n.a.lects of a.n.a.lects], and would need to read the [Mencius] after he finished.

Today, the two siblings went home to wash the sticky bed and sleep.

Mu Rousang slept soundly through the night. When she woke up the moment she heard the crowing of the rooster three times, it was already morning.

Mu Jinzhi had already brought the breakfast on the table. When he entered the room, he saw Mu Rousang lazily nudging herself under the blanket: "Little sister, were you exhausted yesterday?"

"En!" Usually, she didn"t have that much activity in a few days. Not to mention using her physical strength, it was also the most difficult thing to deal with those people.

"Why don"t little sister sleep a little longer? Big brother will go by himself to deliver the festival gift to uncle." Mu Jinzhi felt heartache for her sister, she was completely exhausted.

"Brother, let"s go together!" Hmph, she had prepared a huge present for the Mu Yun Family, even if she had to take it, it would be very popular.

"Brother, your rice porridge is getting better and better." A man who knew how to cook would know that women worked hard, so as long as Mu Jinzhi and Mu Xiu were at home, he would definitely cook breakfast for them.

"Little sister likes it, big brother will cook it for you in the future." Mu Jinzhi took a sip and was very satisfied. His little sister was right, the rice porridge single pot was a little hoa.r.s.e, and when mixed with some glutinous rice, it was not only more fragrant but also much softer.

Mu Jinzhi thought till now, he still could not figure out what kind of thing Mu Rousang wanted to give to his uncle"s family. "Right, little sister, is it his uncle"s clan"s annual festival gift?"
