Delicate Flower

Chapter 134: Wang Si

Yu Tang looked at his father.

Yu Wen is obviously aware of this problem.

He smiled bitterly at his daughter and said: "Mr. Shen is really a man who believes in his words!"

If someone else encountered such a thing, it might be fine, but Shen Shanyan tried every means to help them get the saplings of the sea-buckthorn tree.

These kindnesses can only be remembered in my heart and paid back slowly.

Yu Tang thought, and smiled at his father: "Daddy, let A Tiao take Wang Si back to the old house! This sapling has been walking on the road for almost two months, and now it is not a good season for transplanting. In case..." Didn't you fail to live, didn't you fail everyone's efforts?

Yu Wen thought so too, and hurriedly called Ah Tiao over and told him.

Yu Tang carefully asked Granny Chen to prepare some food, so that Wang Si could rush on after he was full.

Wang Si eats dry food along the way. Sometimes, to save money, he only eats a few bites of bread a day to fill his hunger. At this time, the saplings were delivered, and I was able to eat soup with water. I don’t know how grateful I was. I didn’t even go to the table. I squatted at the door of the stove and huffed. Shuangtao looked stunned.

Wang Si saw that a beautiful maid was looking at him, her face was hot for a moment, and she quickly explained: "I, I'm here this time, and the boss only gave two taels of silver. I have to save a little bit. I don't know where it is. The owner will not keep me."

If the sapling can't survive, what will the owner here keep him for?

It is said that there is little land in Jiangnan, and most of them will read some books, or go out to do business, or go to shop as apprentices, and find ways to be shopkeepers. People who are illiterate and hardworking like him will not only be looked down upon by others, but it is also difficult to find work.

When Shuangtao saw that he missed the Yu family so much, she was a little unhappy, and argued for the Yu family: "Our boss is not like that. If you don't want to stay, our boss will certainly not miss you in the travel expenses to go back."

Wang Si looked at Dun Homune, but he was actually very thoughtful, otherwise he would not take this errand. Seeing Shuangtao saying this, he immediately knew that he had said something wrong, and said hurriedly: "I know that the boss is a good person, I'm afraid I can't do things to satisfy the boss."

It's still a talking guy.

Shuangtao nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Just take care of it, and our boss will never treat others badly!"

Wang Si smiled gratefully, but thought in his heart, don't treat him badly, it will take a while to find out. However, the maid of this family can help the owner to speak like this, it can be seen that this family is not much worse than that, and it depends on whether he can stand up.

He didn't dare to delay, and after two meals, he rushed to the old house of Yu's house with A Tiao.

Yu Tang sent away the saplings, took his father's arm and walked back: "How is the business in Suzhou?"

Yu Wen frowned: "I have agreed with you Wu Shibo, and we will leave early tomorrow morning." He said, "Oh," he said, "Why did I forget about this just now? I'm going to Suzhou Mansion tomorrow, old man Over there..."

Just planting a tree, she doesn't have to watch her father.

Yu Tang smiled and said, "Brother also follow you to Suzhou Mansion? Your business matters. Tomorrow I will go back alone by myself. After planting a tree, I will talk with that Wang Si to see how others are doing. If you stay, you have to see what else he can do?"

They had already invited someone to watch the forest. If they could do the same thing, they would only have to keep one with the benefits of the forest.

Yu Wen thought about Wang Si’s sturdy body, and said: “I think, if two people are not needed on the forest side, let Wang Si come to our house to do some chores. I heard that life in the west is not easy, he is thousands of miles away. Come here suddenly, if you can keep the people, leave them behind. There is no shortage of food at home. After a long time, he might be able to find another job in Lin'an, and we can be regarded as doing something. Good thing."

Yu Tang knew it would be like this.

Both her father and mother are very kind-hearted.

However, their family made a fortune by selling maps, and it would be a good thing if they can help others.

"I see." Yu Tang responded with a smile.

Yu Wen was very pleased with her daughter's performance and said: "Your brother will also follow us to Suzhou Mansion tomorrow. A Tiao stays at home. If you have anything to do, please instruct him."

If Wang Si stays, wherever his father is going, there will also be someone in the family who can run errands and carry things.

Yu Tang nodded again and again, thinking that as long as Wang Si was honest and willing to do it, she would keep people behind.

The next day, after sending away Yu Wen and Yu Yuan, she returned to the old house.

Wang Si had planted the tree overnight, and stayed with the forest guard invited by the Yu family at night. However, the look of the forest guard was not so good, which shows that the arrival of Wang Si still made him feel a crisis.

Yu Tang doesn't like intrigue. She bluntly said to the forest guard: "I asked Wang Si to plant this sea-buckthorn tree. You are responsible for other things on this mountain. You have to find a way to help Wang Si plant this tree. Otherwise, there is no need for someone to guard this mountain forest."

The forest guard hadn’t thought of the connection before, but now listening to Yu Tang’s words, he immediately changed his mind and assured Yu Tang, “I will definitely help Wang Si live this tree species.”

For sea-buckthorn trees to survive, all the forests in this mountain must be slowly replaced with sea-buckthorn trees. There are 40 to 50 acres of forest in this mountain, so they won't be able to relax in the next three to five years. When the sea-buckthorn tree has fruit, the Yu family will have to harvest the fruit and have something to do. The two of them must be busy, maybe they have to hire someone. But if this tree fails to survive, he and Wang Si will do nothing.

Seeing that he wanted to understand, Yu Tang didn't say more. I asked the king about the four types of trees, and Wang Si could answer everything. It sounded quite reasonable, and according to what Wang Si said, he would also plant crops and fruit trees. It's just that barley and wheat are grown there, while Lin'an still grows a lot of rice. Yu Tang felt that as long as he knew what rice was and what wheat was, he should learn everything if he had the intention.

She simply said to Wang Si: "Have you seen a large paddy field over there? That is also our Yu family. If you have nothing to do on the mountain, just look at the fields there, and you can learn how to grow paddy fields from them."

Wang Si responded respectfully.

Yu Tang went to talk to the fifth uncle again.

Regardless of the Yu family’s ancestral house or the farm, the Fifth Uncle was just watching for help and didn’t care much. In his opinion, Wang Sixue didn’t learn how to grow paddy fields and it had nothing to do with him. When the other people asked, he helped to answer a question, telling others that this was the meaning of the Yu family, and he had nothing to disagree.

Yu Tang told Wang Si: "My fifth uncle lives alone. Come and see more when you are fine, and help pick firewood and water. If you encounter any problems in the village in the future, you can also help me. People."

Wang Si was very surprised. He didn't expect Yu Tang to be so friendly to others, and what he told him was also the foundation of his life. He thanked him repeatedly and looked forward to settling down in Yu's house.

Yu Tang hurried home the same day.

Wang did not know when he came, and he was busy with Chen in the warehouse.

With sweat all over, Yu Tang asked Granny Chen when he was freshening up: "What are Mom Mu and Auntie doing? It's such a hot day."

It's a warehouse, but it's actually a small room behind the Chen's inner room. It doesn't even have a window. This kind of weather can cause heat stroke.

Granny Chen grinned and said, "I don't know. You will ask the wife when the wife comes out."

Yu Tang felt that she was playing mystery, so she didn't ask much, changed her clothes again, drank two bowls of mung bean soup, felt that everyone was refreshed, and then went to say hello to the aunt.

The eldest mother had already come out of the warehouse with the Chen family and was standing under the eaves talking. Seeing Yu Tang coming over, she smiled and took the initiative to say hello to Yu Tang, and asked about the mountain forest.

While answering the elder aunt's words, Yu Tang looked curiously at the burden she was holding in her arms.

Chen explained: "Your aunt came to our house to find some cloth."

Is there any cloth to borrow from their house?

Yu Tang wanted to ask, the eldest mother was about to say goodbye.

She didn't ask too much, and accompanied the Chen family to send her elder mother out. Then she said: "Mum, what kind of fabric do the elder mother want?"

Chen said vaguely: "It's nothing, just a few feet of muslin."

At this time, the clothes made of fine cloth are washed and cool.

Is it the eldest mother who is going to make Chinese clothes?

Yu Tang didn't ask any more, and talked to his mother about his father's going out, leaving the episode behind.

Yu Wen and Yu Yuan came back five days later.

The two were beaming, which shows that things are going very smoothly.

Because of this incident, Master Wu's house got closer to theirs. During the Mid-Year Festival, Mrs. Wu also came to invite Chen and Yu Tang to put the river lanterns together, and even tried to tell Yu Tang a better marriage. But as Yu Wen had expected before, those who were willing to be the door-to-door son-in-law of other people's homes either had such shortcomings or were not good in appearance. The Chen family went to see each other twice, but failed.

Fortunately, Yu Tang was not in a hurry, so Chen's heart was not so impatient at all.

After eating Zhang Qing's full moon wine, Yu Tang gave Pei Yan a peanut, the osmanthus blossoms, and every family began to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Yu Tang discussed with the Chen family and sent some moon cakes to Pei's family: "Can you make other moon cakes besides meringue moon cakes?"

In her previous life, she had eaten moon cakes at Li's house that were said to have come from the capital. The skins were like flour cakes, with nuts inside.

I don't know if her mother will do it?

Chen smiled and said, "What kind of moon cakes do you eat without meringue? Are there mooncakes with meringue?"

Yu Tang couldn't say anything. He wondered if he would go to Hangzhou to buy a few Beijing-style mooncakes for his mother to taste, and then tried to make them.

Just thinking about it, Yu Yuan came to deliver mooncakes. It is said that the xiang family brought them from Fuyang, and one of the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts given to the Yu family was given to Yu Wen.

Yu Tang opened it and saw what he really wanted, it turned out to be a box of Guangzhou moon cakes.

Guangzhou moon cakes are similar to the moon cakes in Beijing. They are made of dough, and the difference lies in the filling. Mooncakes in Guangzhou like to wrap lotus seeds and egg yolks.

She said to Chen: "Look, don't there be moon cakes that are not pastry?"

Chen didn't take it seriously, and said, "Can you still call moon cakes that aren't meringues? You have to eat meringues if you eat moon cakes!"
