At night, Xiao Heran fell asleep, and the room was stuffy in summer.

He Zifeng leaned on his head with one hand and fanned his son with the other.The little guy slept soundly, lying on the pillow, and could still see the long eyelashes fluttering with his breathing.

Qiuyu looked at He Zifeng.It was like a dream that they could move out.To be honest, thinking of He Tong having such nasty thoughts about him, Qiuyu felt disgusted in her heart, even if she moved out, she would feel at ease.

Children are their bottom line. Watching the little guy grow up to such a big size, there is infinite tenderness in his heart.

"Would you like to go to the town to recruit workers tomorrow?" Qiuyu asked.

Every year at this time the town comes to recruit workers, anyway, there are still two months before the autumn harvest.Farmers are also idle when they are idle. They go to do some odd jobs. If they are lucky, they can earn a tael of silver back. If they are not lucky, they can earn three or four hundred cash.

He Zifeng is physically strong, and since he was a child, he has been a labor force for the family, so the recruiting foreman always wants him to go.

In the past, He Donglai refused to let him go, saying that no one picked up the water and chopped firewood at home.He does more work than working outside, but no one pays him a penny.

It's different now.He is free, and he can go out if he wants to.

He Zifeng looked at Qiuyu through the candlelight, and there was a trace of tenderness in the corner of his mouth that he didn't even notice, and said, "If you beg me, I won't go."

Qiuyu was a little annoyed: "Do you want to go or not?"

He Zifeng said: "Don't go now." He had just had an enmity with Wan Hai, who knows if he will get in the way, he can protect Qiuyu and the child at home.

It was already late at night, Qiuyu said: "What are you thinking?" It's been a long time since the two of them whispered in the middle of the night like this, it's a bit like when they just got married.

He Zifeng said: "I want to earn some money, and I will send our son to school in the future." The ten taels of silver can't help but spend, they don't even have land, and they have to spend money on food and clothing, let alone want to send their children to school Well, the eldest brother and Xu Li are the rich masters in the He family, and they spent about ten taels a year to support their son, and they said that they would send He Xiaobao to study after he was five years old.

Wan Hai thinks about his son's future with all his heart, and changes his family for him!

He Zifeng didn't expect his son to be a university student, know a few big characters, and understand the principles of life. He will benefit from it in the future.

He Zifeng looked at his son's sleeping profile, and gently brushed away the hair sticking to his face.

Qiuyu also wants to provide education for her children.Why can his family He Dabao, He Erbao, and He Xiaobao go to school, but his family can only collect firewood.My elder brother can also take the imperial examination. I heard that the elder brother of the prime minister's family is still an official in the court, no different from a man.

Qiuyu thought about it and felt a little emotional: "But it costs money to study."It even takes a few laborers to tighten their belts to support a scholar.There were only two of them, and they couldn't rely on their family.

He Zifeng said: "It would be great if there was a shop." Since he was a child, he longed to have a shop in the county. The prosperous shop has been passed down for three generations, and the rent will be enough for his son to live in the future.After sighing, looking at Qiuyu still feeling a little worried, he said, "Tomorrow, I'll go to the mountain to see if there are any good things."

Last time, he picked mushrooms and sold them to mountain runners, earning more than 20 copper coins.The good things on the mountain are not only mushrooms, but also valuable ones.If he could find half a stick of wild ginseng, he would make a fortune. This time, he planned to sell it in the county by himself, and the price would be higher than that of the runners.

Qiuyu said: "I'll go with you, I know you well on the mountain." His father is a hunter, and he grew up on the mountain since he was a child.

He Zifeng said: "If you leave too, you should be afraid." This little boy has never left his parents.

He Zifeng looked at Qiuyu still with a sad expression, and said, "Okay, go to sleep." Then he went down to the ground and extinguished the oil lamp.

……

When Xiao Heran got up the next day, he found that both fathers were gone.His little dad cleaned up everything outside the house.The house was much cleaner, Qiuyu said, "There are vegetable dumplings in the pot."

"Yeah." Xiao Heran went to the kitchen, took a small bench and stood on the bench, lifted the lid of the pot, took a vegetable dumpling, and gnawed on it.

The stuffing of wild vegetables is slightly bitter, and the coarse grains are also scratching the throat. Even the more delicate adults can't eat it, but his baby eats it hard.Sitting on a small bench, I can't concentrate.He ate the whole one and ran out to wash his hands, looked at Qiuyu and spread out his tender little hands for Qiuyu to see: "Little Daddy, I'm done eating." He looked begging for praise.

Qiuyu said, "You're so good."

Xiao Heran was happy when he was praised.

Qiuyu said: "Go out and play for a while."

Xiao Heran said: "I can help you with the work." Afraid that his little daddy would not use him, he added: "My strength is great."

Qiuyu said, "Then can you twist the rag for me?"

"Okay." Zai Zai immediately agreed, with a loud voice.

Qiuyu raised her eyes and glanced at the sky, it was almost noon, she wondered if He Zifeng would come back for lunch or not.

He Zifeng is still working on the mountain right now.As luck would have it, he found a patch of mountain bracken and mountain celery.

Wild vegetables are also classified into high and low.For example, ordinary willow artemisia sprouts, pork hair vegetables, and mother-in-law ding are okay to eat at home, but they are too difficult to give away.But mountain bracken and mountain celery have a special flavor, and people in the county like them very much, and they can be sold at a high price.

He Zifeng picked nearly two hundred catties and put them into a basket before heading to the county seat.There will be ox carts dedicated to pulling jobs during temple fairs or big fairs.But usually I can only go by myself.

There are no light debts for a long journey, and it is tiring to just go to the county seat. The wild vegetables are delicious, and the poisonous sun can't let them be damaged, so he took off his clothes and covered them.I went to a neighbor's house to borrow a wooden cart, and walked under the scorching sun for more than two hours. My throat was smoky, and the soles of my feet hurt like needles.

Fortunately, he finally arrived in the county, he has the background of his previous life, and he also knows something about the affairs of the county.He found a restaurant in the county and asked, "Do you accept wild bracken and wild celery here?" The owner of this restaurant is a foodie, and he likes to bring friends to eat in the restaurant on weekdays.Although there are not many serious customers, but they know the goods, and they eat top-notch food.

For example, this mountain bracken is the fattest and tenderest to eat in this season. If it takes another half a month, it will be old and will not have a crispy taste.

Upon hearing this, the shop waiter hurriedly said, "I'll go ask the shopkeeper for you.

After a while, the shopkeeper came out, looked at He Zifeng and said, "Let me take a look." Then he took a look.The wild fern and wild celery are as fresh as they have just been picked. When you pinch them gently with your hands, they are full of water.

The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face, "I want both. Wild bracken is five cents a catty, and wild celery is three cents a catty." These two wild vegetables are delicious, and they can be marinated if you can't finish them.

It is estimated that there will be no more to eat. If his boss hears that there are these wild vegetables, he will invite his friends to come and have a meal or two.There is nothing left.After weighing, 960 cash was settled.For He Zifeng, it was a huge sum of money.

The shopkeeper said: "If you have any rare things in the future, I will send them here. I will definitely not lose you." His boss's family is rich, and he has several shops in big cities outside. He opened this shop to make friends. At first glance, the cooks here are all hired from other places.

The reason why the price is so high this time is because I want him to continue sending it next time.

He Zifeng agreed, and the money he exchanged went to the grain shop, where he bought 160 catties of white flour and [-] catties of polished rice.This is four cents a catty.It took [-] texts.

He Zifeng bought a bolt of light blue muslin cloth, and spent another three hundred cash. The remaining five hundred cash was hidden in the back basket, so he couldn't see it, so he took it home.

I didn’t feel anything when I came here. It was really tiring to go back. He happened to catch up with a cattle driver who was going back. Anyway, he was going back with an empty cart. He Zifeng gave him five cents to pick him up and put a board on the cow. car.Anyway, the place where the two of them were going was very close, and they waited for the ox cart to arrive.He will be home in two quarters of an hour.

When I went back, I saw that there were two palm-sized little rabbits by the side of the road. It was estimated that the big rabbit had been caught to eat meat, but the little rabbit was left alone and brought back by He Zifeng in his arms.

They lived in the most remote part of the village, and no one saw them at all.Going back from a distance, I looked inside the fence, where Qiuyu and Xiao Heran were working.He Zifeng said: "Son, look what I brought back for you."

As soon as Xiao Heran heard He Zifeng's words, he ran out quickly, and then He Zifeng took out the two little gray rabbits he was carrying, and Xiao Heran was pleasantly surprised: "Tutu."

Qiuyu also came out, only He Zifeng was so used to children.When I went out, I didn’t forget to find a little rabbit for my son to play with.

He Zifeng gave the basket to Qiuyu, and Qiuyu was also shocked. There are rice, noodles, and cloth, all of which are needed by his family. How much will it cost?Scrolling down, there are actually 490 six copper coins?
