That Mrs. Zhen was really messing around, and later wanted to blame Wei Chen for the dumb girl's accident.

Su Jiu was so angry that she asked the village chief to intervene, and even issued the money owed by the dumb girl at that time. Only then did everyone know that the money was borrowed by both mother and daughter.

For so many days, Zhen's self-directed and self-acted, as a widow, she was abandoned by a man, and even her daughter would be ruined, which is absolutely impossible!

Later, through mediation, Su Jiu paid some medical expenses and exempted the mother and daughter from the debt owed by the Zhen family.

In the future, we must stay far away from this mother and daughter, lest Mrs. Zhen bite people.

At about the end of October, the farce caused by taxation was almost over, and the village slowly returned to calm.

Su Jiu settled the second phase of the lobster payment with Qian Mao, and took out 50 taels of silver that day to buy [-] mu of land in the village.

I heard that the war in the northern border is fierce this year, and I'm afraid the war will continue for a long time. No matter how rich you are, you can't be as secure as having fields, land, and food at home.

I bought some radish and cabbage seeds, as well as garlic, coriander, and sweet potatoes, and divided them into several plots. It took a lot of time just to level and renovate the plots, not to mention that Wei Chen was also very busy during this time, often in the morning Go out and come home late at night.

Su Jiu knew that he and Qi Ji had set up a group of bodyguards in the county, and there were some people under them. It seemed that something happened during this period, and they were busy with the aftermath.

He didn't come back to say what happened, Su Jiu didn't ask, and he was busy looking for someone to plow the land.

He Ergou volunteered, saying that it would be enough to give him two copper coins including food and lodging.

When the weather is good, this kid can earn a lot from Su Jiu by fishing for fish and shrimps in the river, but now that it is autumn, it is not easy to fish and fish, so he goes to various households to do some long-term jobs.

Seeing that he seemed to be short of money, Su Jiu pulled him aside privately and asked about his family situation, and learned that he and his father were the only two in his family. The savings, his father is also working outside, he came out looking for work is to hide the truth from his father.

It is said that the children of the peasant family have long been in charge of the family. With such a family, it is difficult for him to fall into the eyes of money at such a young age.

Even if Su Jiu didn't want him, he would go to other places to find something to do. Su Jiu thought about it and let him stay, but the salary depends on how much he does.

Don't look at the child's age of twelve or thirteen, he does things in a disciplined manner, and can catch up with the speed of two adult long-term workers!

In such a situation, Su Jiu gave him the same salary as an adult, and included two additional meals. When the child was growing up, Su Jiu would stuff him with two steamed buns every night for him to take home.

In addition, Li Beibei has officially recognized Su Jiu as his master and learned to cook from him.

Anyone who knows Li Beibei knows that this kid is crazy about food. He can cook Su Jiu's lobster dishes once, and he can even draw inferences about other cases from one instance!

Su Jiu was not stingy with giving him advice, and the two of them worked together to cook some delicious food from time to time. Li Beibei gained no less than five catties during this time with Su Jiu!

Li Beibei doesn't look like Su Jiu's eye-catching stunning style, but a good-looking one. He is not tall, and there are four older brothers in his family who don't need him to do farm work. In addition, his daily hobby is cooking some delicious food. He is well-nourished. She looks fair, round and cute, and looks very blessed.

I have gained weight in the past few days, and my face is full of baby fat. On my face full of collagen, a pair of big eyes flicker, like a Barbie doll.

But don't be fooled by his simple and honest appearance, this kid is smart and thick-skinned, he follows Su Jiu's ass all day long, he is very proud of being told by Su Jiu that he is fat, and says it is Jiu His sister-in-law loves him.

It often makes Su Jiu dumbfounded, maybe it's his weirdness that makes Su Jiu take special care of him.

In the afternoon, Li Beibei bought five catties of yellow croaker fish from somewhere and brought them over, saying that one day he would be a teacher and his life would be a father, and at night he would cook a pot of yellow croaker fish to honor Su Jiu.

Su Jiu laughed angrily: "Does your father know that you mistakenly recognize your father?"

Li Beibei bared her teeth: "I don't know, he didn't even know that five catties of yellow croaker were missing from the tank at home."

Su Jiu nodded, she is really a big brother of your father, one day she will make your father angry.

Then Su Jiu took the quilt and went into the house to make a bed, and Li Beibei set up a small stool to kill fish in the yard.

Li Beibei is good at knives, a small knife flies around in his hand, scrapes the scales neatly, breaks open the belly of the fish, just wiped his hand with fish oil, inadvertently raised his head, and looked at the eyes outside the wall without warning, Li Beibei was startled, The knife accidentally scratched his finger, and he saw blood on the spot!

"Hiss!" Li Beibei frowned, and the boys outside the wall seemed to be frightened by this scene, and hurriedly asked, "Are you okay? I didn't mean it!"

With a little wound, Li Beibei looked at the boy again: "Who are you looking for?"

The boy is about fifteen or sixteen years old, tall and thin, wearing a Confucian overcoat, carrying a lot of things in his hands, looking white and elegant like a scholar in the city.

This person is Su Che who came to look for Su Jiu during the holiday. He sent his elder brother to this place last time when he got married. He didn't remember the way. It wasn't that he was trying to scare people, it was just that he passed by outside the wall and saw a strange brother killing fish inside. His skill with the knife made him look a few more times, and this was the accident just now!

"I'm here to..."

"Babe, who's here?"

Before Su Che could finish his sentence, he heard his elder brother's voice coming from the room, followed by a familiar figure walking out.

"Brother!" Su Che was overjoyed.

"Ache!" Su Jiu was full of surprise, "Why are you here?!"

Hurry up to open the door to let people in, and catch up with Su Che with a big hug: "Brother, I miss you so much!"

"My mother asked me to bring these here. There are bacon, sausages, smoked fish, and some seeds. My mother heard that you bought the land, and she was afraid that you would be too busy. As soon as I was on vacation, she urged me to come and help, brother , is there a lot to do? I will help you with the work!"

"You guy, you just want to work when you come here. Is your brother such a harsh person?"

"Hey, big brother is not harsh, I will do whatever big brother asks me to do."

"Come and take a good rest, how is your study going..."

It was rare for the brothers to meet each other, and they were very affectionate, leaving Li Beibei aside, it took Su Jiu a long time to remember, and turned around to introduce them to each other.

Su Che scratched his head, and said to Li Beibei with the shyness of a big boy: "Just now, I'm sorry, are your hands okay?"

"What happened to the hand?"

After being reminded by them, Su Jiu found out that Li Beibei had a small bloody mouth on her finger, so she hurriedly rinsed it off with cold water, and went into the room to get some disinfectant.

He mixed this disinfectant with high-concentration alcohol, which has the effect of hemostasis and disinfection.

Li Beibei: "It's okay, sister-in-law, the bleeding is gone."

"That doesn't work either. If there are bacteria, they must be sterilized. Don't touch the water. You can play while you are up there, and I will kill the rest of the fish." Su Jiu said.

Upon hearing this, Su Che immediately rolled up his sleeves and volunteered: "What kind of fish, I'll kill it."

Su Jiu was not willing to let him do it, and drove people aside to drink tea. Li Beibei squatted in the yard with Su Jiu, looking at Su Che with her small eyes.

"Sister-in-law, why didn't you tell me that you still have such a younger brother?"

Su Jiu looked at him: "You didn't ask?"

Seeing Li Beibei's shy appearance as a little brother, Su Jiu was very surprised. You must know that Li Beibei is naturally as thick-skinned as a city wall, but he actually knows how to be shy?

Su Jiu thought for a while, then glanced at Su Che who was sitting over there looking at the yard. He was looking at the environment of the yard.

Tsk!Not to mention, Ah Che is handsome and talented, and he is almost 16 now, right?It's time to get engaged!Su Jiu went back to Su's house a few days ago, and heard that Bai Shuang was also worried about this matter. It stands to reason that Su Che is studying in the town, and his personal conditions are good, so it shouldn't be difficult to make a marriage?

But it happened that Bai Shuang was married for the second time and brought a posthumous child. The Su family doesn't even have a head of the family. A pair of orphans and widows, after all, they have lost some impression.

In Su Jiu's eyes, he naturally thinks that his younger brother is good in everything, and advised Aunt Shuang not to worry, we don't look down on those who are too bad, and we don't expect extravagance if they are too good, so I just ask Ah Che to find someone who is destined, the important thing is him I like it, and it happens that the other person is also nice!

Su Jiu thought about it, then glanced at Li Beibei, thinking that Beibei would be fine regardless of her family's appearance and character, and if she counted her age, hey!They are the same age!

Like a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, Su Jiu felt that this matter could be dealt with.

Because there were workers, the lunch time was early in the afternoon, so they didn't wait for Wei Chen to come back, but Su Jiu left him rice in the pot. If Wei Chen didn't have a special meal, he would come back to eat at night.

For dinner, I steamed a large pot of rice, and put all five catties of yellow croaker into the pot. I was afraid that it would not be enough to eat. I also made half a catty of pork belly, mixed with vermicelli stewed tofu, and some other side dishes, and cooked a large pot full of random stew !

"Brother, your cooking skills have not changed, and the dishes you cook are still so delicious!"

Su Che praised Mianer very much, but it's a pity that Su Jiu didn't cook all the dishes.

When Su Jiu heard this, she glanced at Li Beibei, who was buried in the rice, and smiled, "I didn't make these, it was Beibei..."

Seeing a suspicious blush on Li Beibei's cheeks, Su Jiu clicked her tongue, and her gaze became more inhumane.

After dinner, the workers were sent away. Su Jiu originally asked Su Che to take Beibei home, but he came back without thinking.

He was a tall and thin boy, standing in front of the door and scratching his head embarrassingly: "I don't know the way, he let me come back."

Su Jiu: "..."

He even forgot that Ah Che was a little road-crazy, and he might not be able to find his way back after going there.

"What do you think of Beibei?" Su Jiu asked casually. At that time, Su Che was helping Su Jiu clean up the dishes. Hearing this, he nodded, "It's delicious to cook."

Su Jiu smirked: "You guy, you're only interested in the food made by others?" With a smile on her face, Su Jiu poked her younger brother with her elbow: "How is it? Do you want to get to know him better? Brother Help you?"

Su Che was helpless: "Brother, I was annoyed to death by my mother just because of this matter, I thought I could hide from you, how could you..."

"Hmph, if it was someone else, I wouldn't bother to care about it," Su Jiuyan laughed at Yanyan.

Su Che sighed and shook his head: "I just want to study hard now, let's talk about these things later."

Seeing that he really didn't have this kind of thought, and thought he had no feelings for Beibei, Su Jiu sighed secretly, feeling a little pity, but this matter is all about fate.

In the evening, Wei Chen came back and met Su Che. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. Wei Chen asked about Su Che's recent situation while eating the food Su Jiu had left for him. Su Jiu then went into the room to tidy up the next room Come out and live with Su Che.

It's a rare holiday, so let Su Che stay here for a while.

"It's good to keep him here for a while longer." Wei Chen said suddenly at night.

In the room, Su Jiu had just washed and was drying his hair. Wei Chen walked over and wiped it for him with a handkerchief: "I'll be away from home for a few months."

Su Jiu thought she was stunned, and then raised her head after a pause and asked, "What did you say?"

Wei Chen shaved the thin hair of his face behind the ears, and his face was also very embarrassed: "I have received a big order for water transportation from the government, and the people below can't handle it. I may have to personally follow the mission of the escort agency. The destination In the capital, it may take three or four months to come and go by water."

"What?" Su Jiu couldn't believe it. Since they got married, he never thought about separating from Wei Chen, so he panicked now: "Then I'll go with you?"

Wei Chen didn't speak, but frowned, his eyes fell on Su Jiu's shadow on the wall by the candlestick.

His cold outline paused for a moment, then shook his head: "This mission is far away and full of dangers, I don't want you to go."
