Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 170 Chapter 160 Nine : Visit
After an afternoon of work, talking and doing things, a lot of chili strings were made, hanging all over the backyard.

Before it was dark, Song Qiu went to Ear Mountain to cut some bamboos and came back, planning to set up a few drying racks by the side of the ditch, and hang the chili strings out to dry tomorrow.

The river ditch is the best if it can be exposed to the sun from the sun out to the sun down.

The rest of the peppers are stored in a ventilated place, and within two days, they will not be broken and wilted.

In the early morning of the second day, Song Qiu first hung up the chili strings to dry, then took Zhang Lihua and Ah Ling together, and went out to collect the red peppers.

She has been to several villages in Baishui Town, and today she plans to go to the front of Dayao Village, and the villages of Ping'an Village will also be collected to see how much they can collect.

After all, not every family grows peppers.

At home, not long after the three of Song and Qiu left, people from Chengjiazhuang came to the door.

When old Yuan Shi saw the two people who came into the yard dressed like the housekeeper's wife, her heart skipped a beat. She thought that Mrs. Wang had opened her mouth. She said she would come to look for her yesterday, but she will come today.

After all, it was a member of the Cheng family. Old Yuan invited him into the room politely, and poured brown sugar water.

Fortunately, there is brown sugar that my granddaughter always keeps at home, otherwise the hospitality would not be decent.

In addition, the fried pumpkin seeds from the old pumpkin that was cut and fed to the pigs a few days ago also took out a small dustpan to entertain guests.

The two women were very polite, and politely drank the brown sugar water, but the pumpkin seeds didn't move, and after a while they started talking about business.

"Old sister has been delivering babies all year round. We all know this. In these ten miles and eight villages, there are almost few people who don't ask you to deliver babies. Let's say that in our Chengjiazhuang, the old sister is also a frequent visitor. Speaking of which, my little grandson , you were the one who delivered the baby a few years ago!" one of the women said with a smile.

Hearing this, old Yuan could only smile, yes yes yes.

She went to Chengjiazhuang a lot, and the servants of the Cheng family also asked her to deliver their babies. Of course, for the masters of the Cheng family, they usually invited the stable women in the town.

She also remembers this woman, that's right, she really picked up her grandson.

The mother-in-law opened up the atmosphere by exchanging greetings, then changed the subject, and said: "Today, the girls are here to trouble you, old sister. My old sister has delivered babies in ten miles and eight villages, and I remember many of them. What is the birth date of the girl in the eight villages, right? My sister just wanted to ask, which families in the ten miles and eight villages have girls in their teens who were born in August? It depends on how much the old sister remembers, and she can say as much as she remembers. "

As she said that, another long-faced woman looked at old Yuan's face, then smiled and said: "Old sister, we are the old people of the Cheng family, and we represent the Cheng family. You can rest assured that asking this matter is not a matter of doing it." What a bad thing, it's a good thing, please tell us to listen to it, old sister, and we can go back and deal with the master."

Old Yuan didn't listen to anything else, and she also knew that this person came to ask her about this matter, so she didn't need to listen too much, as the one born in August already made people panic.

He was also intimidated by the woman behind her who spoke softly but mentioned the Cheng family inside and out. The Cheng family, they can't afford to offend people like them.

Although the Cheng family is very kind and won't get to know them as ordinary people, but in case they offend others, they can't bear to spout casually.

Old Yuan Shi was very flustered, this time it was no longer a question of whether the birthday horoscopes of other people's girls were suitable for her.

Just because her Aqiu and Lihua were both born in August!

Being looked at by the two women with two pairs of eyes, old Yuan seems to recall, "Well, it's been at least eleven or twelve years since a teenage girl was born. It's been so long, I'm too old to remember. Not good, for a while I really can’t tell who’s born in August so sure.”

The round-faced lady at the front was kinder, and said gently after hearing the words: "It's okay, we are not in a hurry today, old sister thinks about it slowly, count as many as you can think of, don't hide it from old sister, we are the current people, Follow the master's order to do things, if the job can't be done well, it's not easy to get on the job, I hope the old sister is considerate and can say a few more, so it's good for us to get on the job, right?"

The long-faced woman followed suit: "Have you heard of the old sister Huang Wenpo in Xiao's house? We went to her place yesterday. Although she is not as old as the old sister in delivering babies, she has a good memory. Yesterday, I talked about a lot of girls born in August that she delivered.

These families, we all remember that they are united together, it is not a bad thing, I believe these families would like to, Songshan Village is far away, the old sister may not have heard of it. "

As he said, the Cheng family wanted to find a house for the young master and a daughter-in-law had to have a suitable birthday.

But he didn't mention that the young master of the Cheng family was ill.

"Look, old sister, this is a good thing. How many people would like it. Even if you say it here, people won't take offense. If you can't say it, you can't wait to say it."

"Of course, our Cheng family has always been kind. Troubling people is not in vain. This is a little kindness from the master. Please accept it with a smile."

Old Yuan Shi listened to what she said, then looked at the watertight of the long-faced woman, and then took out an ingot of glistening silver from her bosom.

This is why she must say that she is ugly and Yinmao.

Old Yuan's heart was in a mess, and he didn't know what to do at the moment.

She didn't open her eyes to Qian Qian, so she didn't have any reason to know that it was Chongxi who said everything out of her head.

But what the old woman said was not unreasonable, the dowry gift of a thousand taels of silver, I believe many people would be very happy.

Moreover, the Cheng family is indeed a rare and benevolent family. I heard that when the ancestors escaped from disaster, they were not found here. Before the disaster relief came, they were all rescued by the ancestors of the Cheng family.

After all, the old ancestor of the Cheng family was the head of the family.

This favor cannot be ignored.

In addition, if she doesn't tell some people to come out today, I'm afraid these two people won't leave.

After thinking about it, she said with a smile: "The Cheng family is very kind, of course I know about this. It is my honor to be able to help the Cheng family. It's just that my memory is really not very good. I can barely remember it."

After all, after thinking about it carefully, I roughly named some people.

Those two women really came here for their errands, and they even brought a pen and paper with them.

As old Yuan said, the long-faced woman wrote it down.

Seeing that this woman could read and write, old Yuan lamented that the Cheng family was different.

After talking about what he remembered, the old Yuan smiled and said: "That's all I remember, it's really not helpful, I don't dare to take this money, you two should take it back."

The long-faced woman was still waiting for the paper to dry, so the round-faced woman pushed the silver over, "The Cheng family has no reason to ask others to help in vain. The old sister has to take the money, otherwise, it will be difficult for the two of us to deal with each other." , I just need to trouble the old sister to think about it, if you remember something, please come and tell us anytime."
