“Yes!”
After his niece reminded him, he remembered that his brother-in-law's land had been sold.
"Uncle, do you want to buy anything? Go buy it quickly. I'll watch over here."
"No, your aunt will buy it back."
Chen Li nodded, and the two stopped talking. After waiting for a while, Chen Li saw her third brother walking out of the town carrying a bundle.
Shen Yuanzhou was looking around. His fourth brother had just come and said that his mother and younger sister had come to the market, and his eldest uncle was also waiting outside.
Why didn’t I see it?
"Third brother!" Chen Li waved at him, "I'm here."
Shen Yuanzhou's face was filled with smiles as he ran towards his younger sister.
"Little sister, why are you here alone?"
Lin Hu next to him looked at his body. He was such a big guy, why was his nephew looking at him?
Chen Li pointed to the side, "Third brother, uncle is here too."
"Ah?" Shen Yuanzhou met his uncle's speechless expression and smiled innocently, "Oh."
"Uncle is well."
Before Lin Hu could say anything, he saw that the little bastard had left his sight and was obviously more interested in talking to his sister.
"Little sister, what did you eat for breakfast?"
"Third brother received his wages today, and he will treat you to a meal." Shen Yuanzhou looked at Shen Li expectantly with his puppy eyes.
Chen Li felt her full stomach and seemed unable to eat anymore.
But seeing the expression on his third brother's face, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"Third brother, I want to eat candied haws."
"Okay, wait for Third Brother, I'll be back soon." After Shen Yuanzhou finished speaking, he strode into the town.
Chen Li's mouth curled up. Each of the three brothers has his own merits. The eldest brother is honest and simple, the third brother is sunny and cheerful, and the fourth brother, well, is as gentle as jade, which is pretty good.
Shen Qi'an: ...
Shen Yuanzhou soon came back with two strings of candied haws and a bag of candied fruit.
"Little sister, here!"
Shen Yuanzhou watched as Shen Li took it and was about to stuff the remaining string into his mouth.
Then he saw his eldest uncle staring at him.
He closed his mouth and handed the candied haws to Lin Hu, "Uncle, do you want some?"
Lin Hu inexplicably felt that this nephew was a little annoying.
"Yuanzhou, eat it yourself."
“Oh, snap~”
"Little sister, is it delicious?"
Chen Li took a bite and said, "It's a little sour, but quite delicious."
After the brother and sister finished eating the candied haws, Chen Li instructed her third brother to carry the cloth and sacks from the ox cart into the carriage, filling the carriage with cotton quilts.
Half an hour later, everyone came back one after another. Shen Qi'an was the last to come back, and he was holding seven or eight books in his hands.
As soon as I came back, I saw my mother, two aunts and sister-in-law circling around the mule cart.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Lin Cuicui touched the mule's head curiously, without even looking at him, "Oh, your little sister bought a snail cart."
Chen Qi'an looked at the little sister on the mule cart with a smile on her face, thinking that she was doing well.
On the way back, Shen Yuanzhou was driving the snail cart with great interest, and Shen Li was also sitting on the shaft.
My mother and sister-in-law rode in my uncle's ox cart, and the Shen family's carts returned to Sanli Village one after another. The mule cart at the back attracted everyone's attention.
Most of the carts in the village are ox carts, of course there are also donkey carts, but there are no mule carts, and they come with carriages.
Although the free carriage was obviously not very good, if you bought it outside, it would still cost one or two taels of silver.
Everyone knew that Shen Yuanzhou, who was driving the car, worked in a restaurant in the town, so they had a preconceived notion that this was the restaurant's mule cart.
The mule cart was parked beside the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. Let's get in. After the carriage was unloaded, Shen Yuanzhou happily pulled the mule up the mountain to eat grass.
Shen Changshan and Shen Jingyuan came out after hearing the noise and saw the mule's butt twisting back and forth.
After moving all the things out of the carriage, the father and his sons temporarily built a small shed in the backyard for the mule to live in.
Shen Yuanzhou always felt that when he came back this time, his father, eldest brother and fourth brother saw him and felt a secret excitement.
But when he asked his fourth brother, his fourth brother said: You will know tomorrow morning.
Then Shen Yuanzhou was left alone scratching his head. Fourth brother was still like this, never finishing what he said.
Forget it, since I will know tomorrow, I won’t worry about it!
Pei Yu came out with a wooden stick to boil medicine. Shen Yuanzhou was a little curious to see a stranger in his own home.
The next second, his eyes gradually widened. This, this...
"Dad, why is he in our house?" Shen Yuanzhou grabbed Shen Changshan who was passing by and asked with a soul-searching question.
"Oh, you mean Master Wei, your little sister was rescued."
Shen Yuanzhou stared at Pei Yu for a few more seconds, then went to Shen Li’s room.
The door of the room was not closed, and Chen Li was writing big characters.
"Little sister, little sister, what's going on with that person outside?"
Shen Yuanzhou's voice was quite loud at first, but after realizing it, he lowered his voice.
After writing a word, Chen Li put down the pen and looked at the third brother, "I rescued him in the mountains."
"But, but he is, is a wanted criminal?"
Chen Li smiled slightly, "Third brother, it's okay, the gate of the house is usually closed. If someone comes, he will hide himself."
“And,” Chen Li changed the subject and continued, “He will give a reward of 500 taels of silver.”
Shen Yuanzhou calculated in his mind that 500 taels of silver would be enough for the family to use for a long, long time.
"Well, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. You did the right thing, little sister."
Shen Yuanzhou hurried out again, "I'm going to take care of that Young Master Wei. Don't let outsiders see him."
