Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 244 Calm
"Mom, you're back, how is Beauty Pavilion?"

Seeing her mother come in, Chunqiu stood up from the stool with a "crush", and then ran to her mother's side in a stride.

"Hehe, I'm fine now." Yuan smiled, stretched out her hand and pulled Chunqiu onto the stool, put the pork in her hand on the table, turned around and asked, "Qiu'er, where is your father?" Several shop assistants, Yuan Shi did not see Yang Weibo.

After hearing this, Chunqiu pointed to the door, and then whispered to her mother, "I don't have enough flour at home today, so my dad went to my uncle's to get it, and I took Xiaoliu with me, but I haven't come back yet."

"...Oh, no wonder there are so few diners in the shop. The feelings are not for sale." Yuan Shi nodded knowingly, then reached out to pick up the pork she just bought, and shook her hand at Chunqiu with a smile, "Qiu'er, tell me The guys in our shop don’t have to wait here, go home quickly, mother will cook you some meat today.” After Yuan Shi finished speaking, she carried the pork to the backyard.

Chunqiu watched her mother leave, then reached out and patted the table, called several shop assistants around, and told them not to be late tomorrow, Chunqiu waved his small hand directly, and sent them all back home in an extraordinarily chic manner.

Sitting on the stool waiting for her father to come back, Chunqiu was a bit bored, but he was in a good mood, who let the matter of the Beauty Pavilion be perfectly resolved.

"Hey, where are the guys in the shop? Why aren't they here?" Yang Weibai and Xiao Liu came in one after the other carrying bags of rice noodles, looking at the empty shop, Yang Weibai's words were a little puzzled.

Chunqiu stood up from the stool and explained, "Mother came back, and then the guys came back home, saying that the door will be closed early today."

"Oh, how about it?" Yang Weibo nodded, and then turned his head to the honest-looking young man behind him, "Xiao Liu, then you should go back, anyway, there is nothing to do in the shop, go home early and rest."

Xiao Liu showed a row of white teeth, and smiled gratefully at Yang Weibo, "Boss, it's nothing, I'll go home after the rice noodles are moved."

Yang Weibo nodded, and the two began to carry the rice and flour bags.

After all the rice and flour bags on the carriage were moved into the grocery store, Xiao Liu returned home under Yang Weibo's urging. Before returning home, Yang Weibo specially stuffed him with two pieces of pork Yuan's newly bought.

"... are you back? Is Huzi in the study?" Yuan Shi was cooking in the kitchen, then turned around and called out to the door twice.

Both the father and daughter were taken aback when they heard it, Chunqiu glanced at the light on in the study, and replied, "Yeah, I'm here."

"Okay, call Huzi out to eat, the food is ready" Yuan Shi shouted again, and then reached out to pick up the iron spoon on the side to serve the food.

The pork is stewed rotten, with a layer of minced meat on the front, and some beans and greens are added inside, which smells delicious and looks very appetizing.

Feel good and eat well.

At night, when we were having dinner, there was laughter on the table, the atmosphere was relaxed, not as lifeless as before. During the meal, Chunqiu intentionally made fun of it, making Yuan Shi and Yang Weibo who were having dinner laugh out loud.

Huzi didn't come back these two days, and he didn't know what happened at home. When he heard the third sister making fun of him, he also told all the funny things that happened in the school in the past two days. Yuan Shi couldn't stop laughing , In the end, it was only because it affected the meal that I could barely stop.

The turmoil in Meiyan Pavilion passed without any risk, Chunqiu's mood fluctuated because of this matter, but fortunately the matter has been resolved, and Chunqiu's heart gradually calmed down.

Time turned and it was the end of September.

The business of Meiyan Pavilion is getting more and more popular. Originally, it could support the supply for two days, because the remarkable effect of the ointment was directly bought out by crazy people in one day. The production of Spring and Autumn has also changed from three to four days to two days. Make it once.

Not only Chunqiu is busy alone, but her mother Meiyan Pavilion is also very busy. Although her aunt Yang Meijuan has helped for a while, it is not a long-term solution. She has to hire two new young women. With the help of these two people, Yuan Shi was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, and even had time to help Chunqiu make ointment.

Because of the booming ointment business, the name of Meiyan Pavilion has spread directly to Linxian County, which is adjacent to Linfang. Now, many women from Linxian Town come to buy a box of this miraculous ointment.

After Yuan Shi saw it, she already thought of preparing a Meiyan Pavilion branch in Lin County. The ointment business is like a hen that can lay golden eggs. The pavilion is so hot, everyone's eyes are red with jealousy, but because of Li's incident that died without a cause, no one is thinking about it.

Seeing the customers pouring in from outside the door, Yuan Shi was very satisfied with it. She was able to make money and feel at ease. She didn’t have to worry about Meiyan Pavilion becoming someone else’s all the time. Although giving out half of the profit every month was a bit too much, but in the end it was still It's a good deal, looking at the sea of ​​people in front of her, Yuan thought in her heart that she might have to recruit again in a few days.

"Second brother, do you still go to the county school?"

Chunqiu looked at the man with big bags and small bags in front of him, who was not at all as fairy-like as before, and tilted his head half puzzled and half puzzled.

Not caring about answering Chunqiu's words, Yang Chunming put down the book stack on his back, put the bundle in his hand on the side of the table, picked up Chunqiu beside him and drank the leftover tea in one go.

Seeing her second brother's anxious look, Chunqiu hurriedly picked up the teapot beside him and refilled the water, "Second brother, drink slowly, there's still more to come." Looking at the hot sweating, disheveled Man, Chunqiu sighed, is this still the one who bumped into the deer that was a fan of Linfang girls?It always felt different from what she thought.

After quenching his thirst, Yang Chunming finally calmed down. He opened his clothes and sat on the stool. Yang Chunming took out the handkerchief in his cuff and wiped his forehead. Only then did he have time to answer what Chunqiu said before, "Well, the teaching content of the county school I have almost understood that next year there will be a palace examination, the master from the same county school said, and the master also suggested that I come back to study by myself, besides, brother Shaoheng had already returned home a few days ago, so it would be okay for me to stay in the county school alone Let’s communicate, it’s better to come back.”

"Eh? What about the elder brother? Have you met the second elder brother in the county school?" Chunqiu continued to ask, Yang Chunjun successfully passed the children's examination this year, which made the uncle Gu proud once, if it wasn't because of her The second elder brother Zhuyu was relatively low-key before, and her aunt wanted to make a big deal of it in Yangjia Village, but now her elder brother has also entered the county school, and they are in the same place. Chunqiu doesn't know if they will meet each other.

Yang Chunming nodded, with a spring-like smile on his face, "Brother is not with me, and we don't often meet each other, but I met once from a distance before, and my brother is still as serious as before."

"That's really great, my uncle will be very happy to know, when the time comes..." Chunqiu added excitedly, as if he wanted to continue.

"Well, okay, hurry up and help the second brother move things..." Yang Chunming interrupted Chunqiu directly, pointing to the baggage on the table, "move to the study in the backyard"
