Through the cultivation of tang pear leaves rouge color

Song Li went back with Dong Wu, Dong Wu was carrying a small bucket of miscellaneous fish that Aunt Mi asked him to bring home, "The current weather can't dry salted fish, but the small fish in it are used to make soup Just right, it’s good to drink fish soup.”

Dong Wu sat under the eaves and processed all the fish he brought back. Song Li went into the bedroom and sat on the bed to dry his feet. Under the quilt, listening to the pattering rain outside the window, I just want to lie on the bed and sleep forever.

Drowsily asleep, when Dong Wu said that he was going out to see the rice fields, Song Li replied in a daze, and fell asleep again.

He is now like a pig, sleeping for 12 hours a day.

When Song Li woke up, the room was very quiet. He was stunned for a long time before he washed his face, sat in the bedroom, chewed honey cake, and then read a book.

Hearing the sound of the courtyard door being unlocked, he got up and stood in front of the window. He saw that Dong Wu had returned. At this time, the rain had stopped, but the sun had not yet risen. It's all soggy.

Dong Wu washed his hands and feet in the yard before entering the house. Seeing Song Li reading a book, he said, "It's okay, I thought you could sleep all afternoon."

Song Li smiled embarrassedly.

Dong Wudao, "I'll go to Granny Li's house and talk to her about asking her to take care of the family affairs for us. I have to catch two big fish later, and I will go to my uncle's house to bring them to his house tomorrow."

Song Li agreed, and seeing Dong Wu go to work, he went into the kitchen to do things by himself.

After a while, Chunying came to his house with an umbrella, and the two talked, and the time passed quickly.

Granny Li and Chunying also had dinner at his house, and because of the rain, they ate very early. After dinner, Dong Wu packed up his and Song Li's clothes and put them in a small rattan box.

Song Li stood by and helped pass the clothes to him, Dong Wu asked, "Is there anything else you want to take to uncle's house?"

Song Li was still a little apprehensive about going to Dong Wu's uncle's house, looked at the things Dong Wu had packed for him, and said, "Let's forget about books. I won't read books when I go to his house."

Song Li was born as an illegitimate child. From childhood to adulthood, he often acted on the face of others. He actually wanted others to like him, so when he thought about things, he always wanted to make others happy.From the way Granny Li frowned when she saw him reading, it could be seen that older women would not see him reading, so he felt that Aunt Dong Wu definitely didn't like him reading, so he didn't need to take the book with him.

Thinking of Dong Wu's kindness and care for him, he thought it was necessary for him to please Dong Wu's aunt, so that Dong Wu would not be too embarrassed, and he had to think about Dong Wu's situation.

For Song Li, Dong Wu is now not only his relative, but also his benefactor. After all, when he first came to this place, Dong Wu took good care of him, raised him, and provided him with clothes, food, and food. I live in a house, worrying that he will be cold enough to worry that he will be hungry.Not even his former family had ever treated him this well.

Anyone with a conscience and a grateful heart should feel this way. They want to repay Dong Wu and don't want to embarrass him.

Dong Wu took out the two books that had been put in, and said, "It's fine if you don't bring the books, you can read the books at Uncle's house."

There was a hole under a floor tile next to the bed, and there was a ceramic jar in it. Dong Wu moved the floor tile away and took out the jar. Song Li stood beside him and looked at him curiously, saying, "This is a Tibetan jar." Oh treasure hole."

Seeing his wide-open eyes and smiling face, Dong Wu wanted to kiss him, but he could only think about it in his heart.

He put the jar on the table, wiped off the dust on the outside of the jar with a cloth, lifted the cover, and really took out several ingots of silver wrapped in cloth, Song Li was stunned to see, Said, "It's really silver."

Dong Wu put a large ingot of silver into Song Li's palm, and said, "If you touch it, it must be real silver. Are there any fake ones?"

Song Li also laughed.He weighed this ancient silver in his hand and asked, "Is this the money to buy land?"

Dong Wu nodded, "Well, that's right. The ingot in your hand is 50 taels. It was exchanged for loose silver in the bank the year before last. This is only 20 taels. There are a total of 170 taels here. It's okay to borrow some from your uncle's house." enough."

Hearing what Dong Wu said, Song Li looked at the silver in his hand for a while, and said, "Is this 50 taels? It has some weight!"

People here live in affluent life, and the price level is very low. One tael of silver is equal to one thousand copper plates, and one copper plate can buy a meat bun. Moreover, Dong Wu said that selling a bamboo chair only costs a few tens of pennies. The copper plate is equivalent to more than one yuan in modern times, so the 50 taels of ingot in his hand is equivalent to about 50 to 50, and although this ingot is [-] taels, if others want to exchange this ingot, they have to take more loose silver To exchange, so its value should be more than [-] taels. The most important thing is that the land in this era is very cheap, so Dong Wu's savings can still buy a lot of land.

Song Li played with the silver in his palm for a while and then handed it to Dong Wu. Dong Wu smiled and took it and put it together with the silver, then packed them separately in two dark cloth bags, put them on the bedside and waited for the next day. Take away in the morning.

Dong Wu tidied up everything, and then went to bring hot water to wash his face and feet.

When Song Li was sleeping, he glanced at the money lying beside the pillow, and said, "I'm flustered when I put it here!"

Dong Wu asked, "Why?"

Song Li deliberately surprised, "This is money, so much money!"

Dong Wu patted the quilt on him with a smile, and said, "Sleep! When we buy the land, the money won't be ours."

When Song Li heard him say that the money was "ours", he felt strange in his heart, but he felt warm again.Asked, "How long have you saved this money?"

Dong Wu thought for a while before saying, "Some of the fishponds left by my father are still left over, and the rest are saved over the years. My uncle's family has shops in the county and in Yunzhou City. I help him collect them." Salted eggs also made some money, and most of the other money was from selling fish and apricots. The money here is only part of my own savings, and some money is kept at my uncle’s house for them to help keep. It's more stable."

Song Li couldn't help feeling warm when he heard him talk about the family's property and origins. Dong Wu must have told him these things because he regarded him as the most important family member. He couldn't help but lift the quilt and reach out He grabbed Dong Wu's hand on the quilt.

Dong Wu's hand was very hot, with rough calluses, but it was broad and strong. Song Li held his hand tightly. At this moment, he really wanted to hold this hand forever in his heart.

Dong Wu was stunned for a moment because he grabbed his hand, then stretched out the other hand to wrap around his hand and held it, his voice was steady and low, but Song Li could hear the solemn firmness in his heart , "I will let you live a good life in the future, don't think about your former home, okay?"

Song Li suddenly had a sore nose because of his words, his eyes were instantly moist, and he choked up slightly, and said, "I regard you as the closest family member, my previous family is not worth thinking about, I will not go think."

With Song Li's guarantee, Dong Wu finally felt relieved.

In fact, he has always been worried that Song Li would run away and go home. This period of observation made him understand that Song Li did not think about running away, and he had no hope of thinking about his original parents and family somewhere in the distance, so I just let go of my heart.

But thinking that when he rescued Song Li, Song Li was caught and sold to a kiln, but his family didn't come to rescue him, which shows that there were indeed some problems in his original family.

This time Song Li was asked to live in his uncle's house. He hoped that Song Li could get along well with his aunt. After all, he had always respected his aunt.

His aunt once gave birth to three sons, but each of them died before the age of five. The fortune teller said that his uncle and aunt could not support a son, so they had no choice but to give birth to a daughter. At the age of eight or nine, he no longer had many illnesses and disasters like his previous son, which made the two feel relieved, so they always treated Dong Wu as their own son.

The last time his uncle went to Yunzhou City to buy a piece of cloth for his aunt, his aunt asked him to bring some of it back to Song Li. This was not only because his aunt loved him, but also because she hoped that Song Li could follow him well He lives.
