Chapter 57 Birthday
July [-]th is Liang Yimei's birthday. Before that, Xu Runxin supervised the people to plant corn on both fields. Liang Yimei also found a time to remove all the fruit tree seedlings in the space. It was planted, because it was the busy season, so the salary was almost half of what it was before. Grandma Wu was so distressed that she had to do it herself. If Liang Yilin and several cousins ​​of the Li family hadn't pressed her hard, maybe Grandma Fifth would really I went up the mountain myself.Grandma Fifth is still reading it.

Xu Runxin stayed in the field for the past few months, his whole body was darkened, and he looked healthier. Hearing that it was Liang Yimei's birthday, he came to Liang's house early in the morning, and he seemed even more excited than Liang Yimei herself.

In fact, the Liang family didn't invite many people. After all, it was just a small birthday. Apart from Xu Runxin, Liang Yilin's classmate Qian Qinghao was also there.

Xu Runxin's evaluation to him is: hand in.Liang Yimei knew that she was a good person. Remembering Xu Runxin's disdain when Liang Yimei mentioned Qian Qingshen, she really wanted to see what kind of person Qian Qinghao was?

Grandma Fifth refused to let Liang Yimei do any work. She was bored, so she took a random book and ran to read it on the recliner in the backyard.Seeing her comfortable appearance, Xu Runxin was envious, so he ran to the front hall and dragged a recliner beside him, lying on it and chatting with her.

"It's really comfortable! It's cool here. It's strange to say that my house is not as cool as yours with ice cubes."

Liang Yimei said proudly: "Your house is full of tall buildings, blocking the wind. Look," pointing to the pastoral field in front of her, "The cool breeze in my house is natural. How can it be compared with external force?"

Xu Runxin nodded, "I will find a place like this to build another courtyard later."

Liang Yimei tilted her head and asked, "You have so many other courtyards, why do you need to build them?
"Isn't there such a courtyard where you can enjoy the cool breeze? It's hot in summer, and I want to find a better place to escape the heat."

"That can't be said to be built as soon as it is built. It is necessary to select the site, select the material, select the design drawing, and arrange all the scenery reasonably... How troublesome!" Liang Yimei had an idea flashed in her mind. However, she wanted to catch it, but couldn't think of it, so she had to give up.

I heard Xu Runxin say from the side: "That also needs to be built. You don't know that my grandfather has been suffering from summer for the past few days. Putting too much ice is afraid that he will get sick, and it will be uncomfortable if you don't let him go. If there is a building like yours Other hospital, next year will feel better."

Liang Yimei jumped up, "Ah, I know, we can build on the mountain, on the two hills of my house, where the summer wind blows from the river, where the flat river, the wind can reach the top of the mountain , this time is the season of fruiting, put a deck chair under the tree, lie on it and read a book, eat fruit when you are tired, is there a more beautiful day in the world than here?"

Xu Runxin despised her a bit: "Your fruit tree has just been planted alive, where did you get the fruit from?"

Liang Yimei rolled her eyes, "Who told you to eat it now? Build a yard in winter, enjoy flowers in spring, escape the heat in summer, eat fruits in autumn, and enjoy snow in winter if you want."

"That's a good idea, but I heard that your fruit tree will take two years to bear fruit. How will you pick the fruit next year..."

Liang Yimei glared at him: "Today is my birthday, are you here to quarrel with me?"

Xu Runxin curled his lips and stopped talking. Liang Yimei closed her eyes and rocked the recliner.Xu Runxin walked over and said: "Since this is the case, I will reluctantly accept it. I will build a separate courtyard on the second mountain."

If Liang Yimei hadn't been lying on the recliner, she would have fallen to the ground by now. I've seen shameless ones, but I've never seen such shameless ones!

"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as if you agreed!"

"Promise what?" A clear voice sounded, Liang Yimei opened her eyes, and saw a boy with a baby face standing beside her brother looking at them.

Xu Runxin stood up shaking his fan, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Xiao Hao is here. What is your eldest brother up to?"

Qian Qinghao also smiled at him, and said a little shyly: "I don't know, I haven't seen my brother for a long time."

Liang Yimei got up and saluted him, "This is Mr. Qian Er."

Qian Qinghao's face was a little red, and he also returned a gift, saying: "Sister Liang, you can call me Brother Qinghao, today is your birthday, and this is my birthday gift for you." a small box.

Liang Yimei took it and thanked them, Liang Yilin invited the two to sit at the stone table, Liang Yimei went in with a gift, and made a pot of tea for the three of them.

The common topic of the three is their studies, and Xu Runxin is an elder. Liang Yimei saw him waving his fan, smiling, and lazily spreading his experience to the two of them. Qian Qinghao listened seriously, and they talked about it again Knowing the customs of various places, no matter what Xu Runxin said, he could shake his fan and pick it up. It wasn't until then that Liang Yimei found the feeling of Xu Runxin pretending to be a fox.

Sitting there, Qian Qinghao felt a little uneasy. He didn't know where his etiquette was wrong, or there was something wrong with his clothes, because the brothers and sisters of the Liang family always looked at him with pity from time to time.

In fact, Liang Yimei and Liang Yilin just thought that Qian Qinghao had grown up with Xu Runxin, and they still couldn't see through his true nature after all these years, and they were still fooled by him now.

Qian Qinghao's torture ended soon, because Fifth Grandma and Fifth Grandpa had cooked a meal, and the four of them went to the living room to eat.

Qian Qinghao also gradually blended in with them, Liang Yimei reads extensively and can speak a little bit about everything, Xu Runxin is good at adjusting the atmosphere, Liang Yilin is his good friend in the first place, even Fifth Grandpa can occasionally add a sentence or two because of his broad knowledge , the atmosphere at the dinner table is even better.

It's happy and harmonious here, but the atmosphere in Qian's mansion is a bit unpleasant.

The old lady Qian threw the teacup on the ground, and all the maids in the room huddled in the corners, not daring to move.Qian Momo took a look and stepped forward and said, "Old lady, calm down, then Xu Runxin just did one thing, and it's not up to the question whether it succeeds or not. The young master of our family can be counted among the young talents in the whole county, isn't it true?" Such a dude can be compared."

Old Madam Qian's complexion improved slightly, and she said: "That land belongs to our family, and we took it away because of our friendship with the county magistrate. Does he think that our Qian family can't compare with his Xu family?"

Mommy Qian answered "Yes" repeatedly.

"Go and find the young master."

Qian Momo hurriedly ordered the servant girl to call for someone, and remembering her purpose this time, she went up to her and said, "Old lady, there are actually more than 1000 acres of land next to it, and I heard that it was bought by a member of the Liang family." The Liang family is just a small family, and it was not because they climbed up to the young master of the Xu family that they were able to buy that piece of land, more than 1000 mu of land, and the total cost was only 500 taels of silver!"

The old lady Qian was even more annoyed: "What kind of cats and dogs dare to snatch it, how much did Xu Runxin spend?"

Qian Momo was a little hesitant, and didn't really want to answer the old lady Qian's question, but looking at her eyes that were about to spit fire, she still said, "It seems...it's also 500 taels!"

Sure enough, Mrs. Qian patted the table and said, "Back then we couldn't buy it for 5000 taels, but he only spent 500 taels, and he said it wasn't collusion between the government and the businessman... Woo..."

Qian Momo stepped forward and covered her mouth. At this moment, she felt a little regretful. Maybe she shouldn't have thought about that piece of land in the first place, and she couldn't come to the old lady if she wanted to. How about it?The master is very filial and doesn't know what to say about the old lady, but she can't survive.

"Old lady, you can't talk nonsense..."

"Grandmother," Qian Qingshen frowned slightly when he came in and saw the mess all over the room, "what's the matter?"

When Mrs. Qian saw her precious grandson coming, she felt aggrieved and said, "Why are you here now? Grandma is about to be pissed off."

A haze flashed across Qian Qingshen's lowered eyes, but it disappeared in a flash. He raised his head and smiled coaxing her, "Grandmother, who made you angry again? Tell your grandson, grandson will teach him a lesson."

"Who else? Isn't it the Xu family's..." Mrs. Qian also knew that there were some things she couldn't say, but she just slipped her tongue, "...I heard that he bought the land of our Qian family. Did he succeed?"

There was a sarcastic smile on the corner of Qian Qingshen's mouth, "Grandmother, that land belongs to the Wu family..." It's a pity that the old lady Qian couldn't see it, but Nanny Qian took another look at him, thinking his smile was very strange.

"Nonsense," Mrs. Qian hammered the table, "That land originally belonged to our Qian family, and the Wu family insisted on snatching it from us. Now that the Wu family doesn't want it, it naturally belongs to our Qian family."

Qian Qingshen was a little annoyed, could they just pick up what others didn't want, but he still smiled and said: "Grandmother, the Wu family has planted that land for more than 20 years, and they can only cultivate medium-sized land, and there is a river Downstream, the water rises from time to time, and the Wu family has lost a lot of money to go in over the years, otherwise they would not have been idle for five or six years, and we also lost money when we bought it."

The old lady Qian was in a better mood, and she complained again. Seeing that the old lady Qian had completely forgotten what she said just now, she wanted to remind her, but the young master was here, and she didn't have the guts. , she could only secretly worry in her heart.

When she saw the servant girl brought tea, she stepped forward to take it, gave the young master and the old lady a cup, and said with a smile: "Old lady, calm down, you see how filial the young master is, he came back to see you in such a busy schedule. "

The old lady Qian felt more comfortable, but she also remembered Qian Momo's words, and asked, "I heard that there is a piece of land next to it, which was bought by a member of the Liang family?"

Qian Momo just breathed a sigh of relief, when she turned her head and saw the Eldest Young Master looking at her with hazy eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and her face instantly turned pale.

Qian Qingshen lowered his eyelids and said with a smile: "Grandma, Xu Runxin's land is like that. How much better do you think a piece of land that has never been cultivated can be better?"
