The fierce peasant woman is busy farming

The next day, Zhou Yue got up a little late.

She smelled a fragrance coming from outside the house.

Turned over.

Hmm, this fragrance has the aroma of fruit, wine, and food.

Hey, the yard is quite lively, and I can hear a lot of people talking.

Zhou Yue hurriedly got up, put on his clothes and walked into the yard.

Everyone in the courtyard was reading the letter.

This was the first time I received a letter from Song Yuan, and it was delivered by someone specially sent by Zheng’s Pharmacy in the county.

I was thinking that when I go to the county in a couple of days, I would go and ask if there are any letters from home.

I didn’t expect that Shopkeeper Zheng would be so thoughtful to deliver it.

Great, Zhou Yue joined in.

Upon closer inspection, I realized that everyone was so happy not just because they received Song Yuan's letter.

Along with the letter, there was also a letter from Yuan Mo.

I haven’t heard from Yuan Mo for a long time.

Ever since he went to join the army, there has been no news from him at home.

Of course, this is the way it is in this era, because communication is difficult and because many people are illiterate.

Going to serve in the military, you will be away for one or two years.

The family has no idea where this person is.

All I can do is wait, wait for him to come back, or wait for news from him.

If he doesn't come back, it would be a pipe dream to bring back his remains.

It's good to get an explanation.

Therefore, everyone was afraid to join the army. What they feared was not the hardship, but the thought of never coming back.

What I’m afraid of is that I won’t even be able to return home with my body.

Zhou Yue looked at Qian and Chunniang wiping their tears and listened to Xuan Mo saying:

"Grandma, sister-in-law, my brother's handwriting in the letter is very good.

His calligraphy has improved compared to when he was at home.

Don’t cry anymore, or you’ll make little Jiuer cry too.

I received a letter from my eldest brother today, all thanks to Brother Song.

Brother Song wrote letters to each of us. I won’t read the letters he wrote to individuals.

When mother comes, I will read big brother's letter to everyone."

Zhou Yue's eyes were slightly wet, and he sat down and listened quietly.

Xuan Mo saw Zhou Yue coming over and hurriedly said:

"Mom, you're awake, I've been waiting for you.

Grandma saw that you were sleeping soundly and didn't have the heart to wake you up. She said that you were too tired recently and asked you to rest more. "

Zhou Yue nodded and smiled, indicating that he could start reading the letter.

Yuan Mo said in the letter that he was fine and asked his family not to worry about him.

He is currently serving in Liaodong, doing auxiliary work. He is not on the battlefield and is not in danger.

Please rest assured at home.

One day I happened to meet Lord Song.

He turned out to be a junior colonel.

With the protection of Lord Song, he now serves as Lord Song's personal bodyguard.

Although he is called a personal bodyguard, his martial arts skills are actually not that good and Song Yuan specially protects him.

During this period, in addition to doing his work, he also learned some kung fu from other guards and Song Yuan.

It’s a pity that he is old and can only learn some superficial skills. It is impossible for him to develop the skills to the level of Lord Song.

He still misses everyone, and Chunniang...

After hearing this, everyone went to see the eldest sister-in-law.

Chunniang's face turned red all the way to her neck with shame, and she lowered her head and dared not raise it.

Then he suddenly stood up and said, "It seems Jiu'er has woken up. I'll go check it out."

Zhou Yue smiled and pulled her back, "Sit still, you haven't woken up yet. Listen to me before you leave."

Yuan Mo said in the letter that the due date was approaching and he hoped Chun Niang would have a smooth delivery.

He also named the child in the letter.

If it’s a girl, her name is Ning Shuo.

The boy's name is Ning Ye.

My goodness, why are they all written with the character for fire next to them?

Well, he is the child's biological father, and he has the final say.

Yuan Mo also said that after the child was born, she could write him a letter back and send it together with the letter to Lord Song.

Later, Yuan Mo continued to write about what he had seen and heard in the past few months.

I didn't expect that Yuan Mo, who is usually taciturn, can be so good at writing letters.

Zhou Yue looked at the thick stack of letter paper and sighed.

After reading the letter, everyone fell silent.

Everyone was very happy to get news about their relatives who were away.

But when I thought of Yuan Mo, an honest farmer, suffering in the bitter cold borderland, with poor food and cold clothes.

They felt distressed again.

Seeing that everyone was in a low mood, Xuan Mo hurriedly took out a few envelopes from the bag below.

Then he read out the names on the list and distributed them to everyone one by one.

Zhou Yue, Qing Mo, Yang Mo and Jun Mo all have a letter from Song Yuan.

After sending them, Xuan Mo still had two letters in his hand, one of which was given to him by Song Yuan.

Xuan Mo gave the other letter to Chun Niang.

"Oh, and mine?"

Chunniang, who was carefully savoring the words in her husband's letter, was startled.

"Yes, now that my sister-in-law can read, how can we not have yours?"

Chunniang's face suddenly turned red again.

She stammered, "What did Lord Song write to me?"

"Mr. Song? No, it's not. This is a letter written to you by my elder brother."

Chunniang hurriedly took the envelope and saw that it clearly said: Dear Shen Chunniang.

She held the envelope to her chest and felt her heart pounding.

Then she made an excuse to go see her child, hurried back to her room, and secretly read the letter.

Everyone laughed as they watched Chunniang fleeing in panic.

The others also kept the letter in their arms, and it seemed that they were reluctant to share it with everyone.

Qian invited everyone to dinner, and Zhou Yue then remembered where the messenger was.

Xuan Mo said: "The messenger came here to deliver the goods and the letter at the same time.

He delivered it and left.

He just said that the reply letter could be sent to Zheng’s pharmacy.

Mother, I want to write back."

Being able to communicate with others, Xuan Mo felt that he had a lot to say to his elder brother and Brother Song.

"Let's eat first and take some time to write a letter. We still have to go to the mountains today."

"All right……"

“Also, in two days, I will take people to the county, and I will personally deliver the letter to Zheng’s Pharmacy.

You guys should hurry up and write in the next two days."

"Okay." Everyone responded.

After breakfast, we went into the mountains together today.

When we arrived at the cave, we found that the wine we had made earlier had begun to ferment.

When releasing the air, Zhou Yue discovered that three cylinders were broken. When he opened the seals, he smelled a strong stench.

I think it was because there were too many people involved this time, and some things were done roughly, so dirt was brought in and contaminated the wine.

There is no way. There were no antibacterial agents in ancient times, so this kind of situation would easily occur when doing these things.

After pouring the three cylinders of stuff into the soil and burying them, the confidence of the children was slightly shaken.

Zhou Yue smiled and said, "The road is tortuous, but the future is bright."

Don't worry about being frustrated and get to work.

After a busy morning, it was soon time for lunch.

Today, except for Chunniang, Qianshi, and Xiaojiuer, almost everyone in the family was out, so Zhou Yue brought a full set of barbecue.

Ren Pingsheng now follows the Ning family every day and is inseparable from them.

Occasionally he would take Jun Mo to the mountains to play, and they would go too far, sometimes not coming back for several days.

Zhou Yue warned them many times, but to no avail.

Every time Jun Mo came back, he was clean and in good spirits.

Just feel relieved.

Take out the ingredients and various condiments and start grilling.

Ren Pingsheng's eyes lit up. He had just secretly drunk some wine and was feeling tasteless in his mouth.

Now it's ok, we can have barbecue to eat.

I don’t know what seasoning Aunt Zhou used, but the aroma is really addictive.
