Chapter 144 The Strangeness of Helian City
Father Mu had never seen such a battle before, so he hurried into the room and called Qing Niang who was making dumplings.Qing Niang wiped her hands in doubt, and as soon as she left the kitchen, she heard someone shouting: Miss Mu, are you there?

This sound is so familiar!
Qing Niang took off her apron and came out. She poked her head out and saw that there were two boxes in the yard, and the rest of the baskets were full of presents.She glanced roughly, then looked at the person who gave the gift, and said with a smile: "The manager is here, please come inside." She said so in her mouth, but she said in her heart: Boss Xu's leg has been hurt for a hundred days , you should be able to lose your walking stick and run around, right?Why didn't he come by himself? Could it be that he broke up with her because of his daughter's affairs?

The butler quickly waved his hand, with a smile like a chrysanthemum in September and October, "No need, I just came to pay New Year's greetings to Miss Mu on behalf of the master, and I will go back to the city soon. The master went back to his home in Kyoto ten days ago , I specially ordered the little Chu to bring these gifts to you." His voice paused for a while, and he pointed to the things in the yard.

Qing Niang didn't look sideways, took a small dip, and then smiled back, "Boss Lao Xu is thinking about it, Qing Niang feels ashamed." No wonder I haven't seen Xu Yong these days, it turned out that I went back to the capital for the New Year.Ha ha, it can be quiet for a while.When she thought about entering the yamen, she felt angry.

The housekeeper handed the things to Qing Niang, exchanged some pleasantries with Qing Niang, and then led them to leave.Qing Niang was speechless for the things in the yard. She will move these things back to the city soon. Who should pay for the labor costs?
Boss Xu was polite, and brought cloth, dry goods, bacon, fresh pork, and game.When she opened the box, it turned out to be her share of the profit at the end of the year and this month. Qingniang looked at the white money, quickly closed the lid, and quickly called Mu Laopa and Bald Donkey to come out and help her carry it in.If the wealth is not exposed, isn't this recruiting thieves to their house?

When Heliancheng came back, the corners of his mouth twitched violently after hearing Qingniang narrate the matter.The husband and wife made a total calculation, and decided to find a place to put the money away first, and then make plans after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, on the premise that it is hidden from everyone.

Monk Jieba sat in the main room with an inscrutable smile, closed his eyes and chanted Amitabha Buddha.Hearing that the voice in the room was quiet, he put his palms together and walked out of the courtyard of Qingniang's house with the prayer beads.Then, go door to door for alms.

What he begs for is not food, but the 'thing' in his mouth.The people of Xiaohe Village saw that he looked like an immortal, they didn't dare to offend him, they let him walk around the house, and then Jie Ba forcibly stuffed him with a string of consecrated Buddhist beads.They didn't know what he meant, but because of the first day of the new year, they put away the prayer beads.

They don't know that in the near future, this string of beads will become their life-saving talisman!
Monk Jieba didn’t have lunch, so he walked around the village once, and more than [-] families gave a string of Buddhist beads. Although it was for alms, he didn’t see him take anything from the people’s homes. Waiting for his series of ceremonies last night , It's getting dark!
After Mrs. Guo threw firecrackers at Qingniang's house last night, she was so excited that she didn't sleep all night.And the next morning, I went around the village and saw that Qingniang's house was in good condition, and my heart began to tremble.Will this joke become evidence to correct her?She was out of her mind on the first day of the Lunar New Year, when Jie Ba met her, he sighed and shook his head: "Heaven committed evil, but you can do it; self-inflicted evil, you can't live!"
Seeing that she was out of her mind, Mrs. Tong thought that she had lost her soul during the Chinese New Year, snickered for a while, and then took her daughter back to her natal home to pay New Year's greetings.Liu Rudong didn't earn much money, and he had to pay part of it to the Hu family every month, and his family had to buy things, so the money left was even more pitiful.After finally going back to her mother's house, there were no decent gifts to save face. Thinking of Qingniang's ability and the money in her pocket, she was both envious and jealous.

When Liu Rudong passed by He Liancheng's house, why didn't he envy He Liancheng?If he had known that he had such a life of relying on women for food, he would have married Qingniang himself as his concubine.Who told Tong that he couldn't bear a son for him?He had every reason to be a concubine.

loss!
This time the loss was too great!
He Liancheng went to the city for a trip, and naturally bought a lot of things back, all of which were to pay New Year's greetings to other people's homes.The Hu family was not disappointed, but Heliancheng still couldn't bear it after all, and when buying gifts, their family also had a copy.In addition, there are the village chief's family, Yuniang's family, and the three most hardworking, capable and honest families in the village.

In terms of rewards for meritorious deeds, Qingniang is very clear about rewards and punishments!
Paying New Year's greetings, visiting the house, and being busy until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.In the past few days, they have eaten a lot of fish and meat, even Qingniang, a carnivore, is clamoring to drink porridge and be vegetarian.Aunt Mu is naturally happy, no matter what her daughter wants to eat, she is willing to do it.

However, some people don't want to.Jie Ba is a wine and meat monk, how can he do without meat?Yan Wuhen is used to a life of big fish and big meat, and he can't swallow a vegetarian diet.Both of them rejected vegetarian food in their hearts, so they deliberately went on hunger strike to protest.Such thoughts coincided with each other. Toad looked at Mung Bean, and the two of them also fell in love with it.

Everyone in He Liancheng's family wanted to drink porridge and eat vegetarian food, and no one paid any attention to the two of them. In the end, Jie Ba and Yan Wuhen were successfully connected and formed an alliance.Anping didn't feel ashamed of Yan Wuhen's villainous behavior, but he didn't speak out against it. Anyway, one of them was his father.

Qingniang planned to find someone to decorate the new house in the city after the [-]th day of the first lunar month, and the money sent by Boss Xu came in handy.If the completion speed is fast, try to move in by the end of April.On the one hand, it is because of Brother Yang, on the other hand, it is because of wanting to make money.But before making money, she regretted offending Xu Qin'er.

How to do it?

Yan Wuhen and Jie Ba made a small fuss under the eyelids of several people every day, and everyone turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it.Qing Niang was thinking about how long Yan Wuhen would stay and let him go, she couldn't keep a robber wanted by the government all the time, right?Even if the government wants a masked man, if they don't say it, the devil will know that he is at her house.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a lantern riddle party is held in the city.Qingniang is not interested in this kind of thing, and she didn't dare to take Yang brother there after learning the lesson from the last time.Yan Wuhen, Jie Ba, and Anping couldn't bear the loneliness and wanted to join in the fun, so the three of them joined together and swaggered into the city.

Brother Yang's school starts in a few days, and the homework assigned by the master has not been finished yet, so he is working overtime in the house to catch up with the homework.Qing Niang and He Liancheng went out to find skilled craftsmen, the decoration of the new house was a bit difficult, she had to compare with several groups of people before making a decision.

We visited three villages and found four batches of workers.Memorized their prices one by one, as well as their level of carpentry attainment, and returned home after collecting the information. As soon as they walked to the door, they saw Anping leading a group of people approaching in a mighty manner.

Qing Niang was taken aback, and He Liancheng's face turned pale in an instant!

 Send it at the third watch, okay?
