The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 1899

[Chapter 1899 Qi Xuan Fanwai (57)]

In May, it was still a little cold to sleep in a wooden hut in the mountains. Qi Xuan lay on the hay and said, “This time we come back, buy a mattress and a quilt to put it on!” Every time he went down the mountain, he couldn’t sleep well. It is also thanks to the people of Ajia Village who travel back and forth on this road year after year.

In fact, the hay that Qi Xuan slept on was brought from the village by Ajia Village.

Gu Jiu didn’t care: “You can take it with you if you want.” Every time he went down the mountain, Gu Jiu would take some dry food at most. He doesn’t take anything else.

That’s why Qixuan has a soft temper. If it were Qiyou, he would have to toss you to death if he dared to bully him.

“Okay.” When he came back, he went to town to buy a quilt to keep. He has to go back and forth every month, and he can sleep peacefully even with a quilt.

This time to the county, I feel a lot of changes. First of all, don’t pay the city fee when you enter the city. Second, there are no more hooligans hanging around on the streets.

When he arrived at the Tang family’s calligraphy and painting shop, Qi Xuan went directly to the backyard to find the old gentleman. Gu Jiu chatted with Tang Lao Er: “Has there been any changes in the county seat recently?” It seems that the thunder method used last time is still useful.

Tang Lao Er said with a smile: “In the middle of the year, the state government sent someone to take over the position of the county chief. Now, those miscellaneous taxes have been canceled.” Obviously, the county chief will not make as much money as before. . It’s a lot of taxes, but it doesn’t affect them. They don’t need to pay for the money they lose. But the merchants here will benefit.

Gu Jiu hummed: “That’s good.”

Tang Lao Er said respectfully: “I don’t know what kind of tea the old gentleman likes to drink. I’ll make it for you.”

Gu Jiu was not interested in tea, he waved his hand and said, “No need, I’ll go out for a walk.”

After saying that, he walked out with his hands behind his back.

The servant asked strangely: “The shopkeeper, he is just a servant, why should he be so polite to him.”

The master killed nine local hooligans in one go, and even cut off the head of the county magistrate and hung it in the yamen. If such a master does not serve well, if he makes him unhappy, his life will not be guaranteed. However, Tang Lao Er did not dare to say: “What do you know, do your job.”

Qi Xuan stayed at Tang’s house for three days this time, but he was afraid that Concubine Dou would worry about him before going back. Otherwise, it must be two more days.

When he went back, Qi Xuan said, “Gu Jiu, I bought the yard next door to Elder Tang. In this way, I can easily ask Elder Tang for advice when I encounter problems that I don’t understand.”

Gu Jiu hummed: “Yes.”

If it wasn’t for Oak Xi’s disapproval, he would have wanted to move to the county seat now. It’s so inconvenient in Aga Village.

May is the busy farming season, and when I got home, Concubine Dou was not there. I went to the kitchen and looked for it, but there was nothing to eat. Qi Xuan was too hungry, and said to Gu Jiu, “You went to find Qiao Niang and came back to cook.”

Gu Jiu was also hungry, so he readily called for someone.

Qi Xuan was not idle either. After washing, he began to wash and cook rice, and then went to the storage room to find vegetables and washed them.

During the meal, Concubine Dou said to Qi Xuan, “I just heard from Yijia’s sister-in-law that Niti’s daughter-in-law is pregnant. It’s been a month.”

When he said this, he couldn’t help but glance at Qi Xuan. When she was just with Qi Xuan, she was so good that she mixed oil with honey. But it’s been more than a year since he left the capital, and Qi Xuan hasn’t touched her.

Qi Xuan said: “This pregnant woman needs to eat more good things. Look at what’s good at home, send some to her to eat!” Although he was estranged from Niti because of the hunting of tigers . But Nitty’s help to him before, he has always remembered.

Aunt Dou responded with a dull voice.

When she went to bed at night, Concubine Dou was next to Qixuan, her hand slowly reaching out to Qixuan’s chest. Although not said, this action is already obvious.

Qi Xuan removed Concubine Dou’s hand from him, then turned around and went back to sleep.

Aunt Dou felt a little sad. The prince must think that she is old and ugly now, so he doesn’t want to touch her.

In fact, Aunt Dou really thinks too much. I didn’t eat or wear before, and Qixuan was tired like a dog every day to eat enough, how could he still have the energy and strength to think about it. Now I don’t have to worry about food and clothing, but Qixuan’s mind is full of paintings.

In the blink of an eye, five months have passed. At this time, Ajia Village was at the peak of hunting again.

Nigu invited Qixuan to go hunting, but he refused: “I want to paint, but I don’t have time to hunt.” With Tang Mo’s guidance, Qixuan’s painting skills were much better than before.

Because of the affirmation of Oak Xi and Qi You, Qi Xuan is now full of energy.

Nigu hesitated and said: “Sir, if you don’t go hunting with us, then there will be no meat points.” If there are young adults in the family who don’t go, there will be no meat points.

“I will move to the county seat at the end of this month.”

Nigu was shocked: “Sir, why do you want to move to the county seat? Sir, isn’t Ajia Village bad?”

Of course, Ajia Village is not good. It’s nothing to ask for. But if it’s not good, Nico will definitely feel uncomfortable. However, Qixuan knew that he didn’t think his mother was ugly, and Nigu, the head of Ajia Village, would definitely think it was good here.

Qi Xuan smiled and said, “Ajia Village is too cold. Last winter, my hands froze and I couldn’t paint anymore.”

Nigu hesitated and said, “Sir, you paint and paint all day long, and this thing is not for food.” From the beginning of the year to the present, this gentleman seems to be following the devil, and he does not grow vegetables or crops. I painted and painted in the sunhouse, and now I don’t go hunting in the mountains. Wait until winter, what to eat!

“This can really be eaten.” Qixuan didn’t explain the specific details, but he specifically told Niku there was a reason for this: “I want to take Aihua to the county seat, I wonder if you are willing?”

Nigu was stunned and said, “Sir, you mean to take Aihua to the county seat?”

Qi Xuan snorted: “If you agree, I will take him to the county seat.” If Nigu and Yijia disagreed, he would not be hard on others.

Nigu said hurriedly, “I have to discuss this matter with my father and Yijia.” He didn’t want his son to go to the county town with Qixuan.

Knowing this, Yijia almost slapped Niku on the head: “Why do you think about such a good thing?” If it was her, she just agreed.

Nigu also had concerns: “Mr. shuts up in the house all day to draw and paint. What if Ai Hua is like him in the future? I’m afraid that by then, my daughter-in-law will not be able to marry.”

“I think Aihua can be like Mr., but unfortunately he doesn’t have this talent.” Seeing Nigu looking at herself, Yijia scolded: “Do you know how much a painting sells for Mr. Qiaoniang? The picture, sold for 60 taels of silver.” His in-laws have not saved so much money for decades.

It was also Nigu and Yijia who were sincere and honest. I didn’t expect that the village chief’s wife would hide most of their savings.

Nico asked in disbelief: “Sixty taels, how is that possible? You must have heard it wrong.”

“How could I be wrong about such a big thing.” In fact, Qi Xuan was not involved in production and wrote and painted all day long, while Aunt Dou was working in the field every day, and Yi Jia was very upset for Aunt Dou. She also told Aunt Dou that men can’t be so used to it. As a result, when Aunt Dou told her about it, she was so shocked that her eyeballs almost dropped.

“Then why didn’t you tell me?”

Yijia gave Niku a glance and said, “I want to tell you, it means that everyone in the village knows. If everyone comes to ask Mr. to teach their children, won’t it cause trouble for Mr.?” After a lot of dealings, Yijia also saw that Qi Xuan was not an enthusiastic person. It can even be said that this person is a little indifferent. If it wasn’t for the husband who gave them a house to live in, the two families would not have been so close.

Now think about giving this house away, and the benefits they get are far higher than the house.

Nico was a little embarrassed: “How can it be so exaggerated.”

Yijia is too lazy to talk about Nico. Niku couldn’t hide anything in his stomach, what he told him with his front feet, he told others with his back feet. Yijia suffered several losses, and later did not dare to tell him about important matters.

“Go and tell your husband that we all agreed to let him bring Ai Hua there.” Follow the husband to learn, and your son will no longer need to stay in the mountains.

When Nigu came to the door, Yijia stopped him again and said, “I’m not allowed to tell anyone about this for the time being. If you say it, it will cause trouble for Mr. I can’t forgive you.”

Nigu said hurriedly: “Don’t worry, I promise not to tell.” The husband is so kind to his family, if he wants to cause trouble to the husband again, it is still a human being!

This time, Nico really held back and didn’t tell anyone.

Seeing that Ai Hua followed Qi Xuan down the mountain and hadn’t come back for ten days, the village chief’s daughter-in-law said worriedly, “Why haven’t you come back for so long?”

Nigu’s sister-in-law said, “Brother, don’t this person kidnap Ai Hua?”

Hearing this, Niku’s face turned black: “What nonsense are you talking about?”

There is a reason for Nigu’s sister-in-law to think so: “They have no children and are so good to Ai Hua, but they don’t want Ai Hua to be their sons.”

The village chief’s wife became anxious when she heard this, and said quickly, “Go down the mountain and find my eldest grandson.”

Yijia walked out of the house and said to her sister-in-law, “Who told you that Mr. and Qiaoniang don’t have children? Their son is three years old, but he didn’t bring it out at home.” Bringing children to this harsh environment.

“She lied to you, do you believe that?”

Yijia didn’t bother to pay any attention to her daughter-in-law, and said to the village chief’s wife, who was anxious to get angry: “Mother, sir, moved to the county. Ai Hua lived with him in the county, so as not to delay his studies.” Qi Xuan and they did not come back down the mountain. It was not safe for Nico to come back alone, so he didn’t go with him.

Nico said: “Mother, I have already told Niti, we will go to the county town when he returns from hunting.”

“I’ll pick up Ai Hua tomorrow.” Although she was partial to the younger son, the village chief’s wife also loved the eldest grandson.

Yijia said to the village chief’s wife: “Mother, Mr. Niti will give away two pieces of fine cloth as soon as he gets married. If he wants a child, some people will give him away.” Besides, Aihua is seven years old, and he has long remembered it. Such a big child, if you want to grab it, you can grab it. Only a brainless person would think like that.

In fact, it’s not that Nigu’s sister-in-law has no brains, she just said that because she was jealous. It would be good if Yijia and Niguzhen brought the child back.

In the evening, Yijia said to Nico: “I will go down the mountain with me when I think of it.”

When Nico heard this, he immediately asked, “Are you also worried that Mr. Ai Hua was kidnapped?”

“What nonsense, I just want to see Ai Hua.” Seeing Ai Hua is fake, go to the county town to see if it is true.

Hearing that Ai Hua said that the county town was so prosperous, she felt a little itchy. She has been to the town twice, but has not been to the county seat.

Nigu knew what Yijia was thinking, but he still didn’t approve of her going to the county seat: “This trip will last for five or six days. Who will take care of Ada and Muna then?”

Yijia is discouraged.
