Chapter 12 What do you have for him?



Jiang Minghong was so absorbed in thinking about things that he didn't even know when his sister left. When he came back to his senses, he saw that his sister was ladling water to wash the pot. He thought that he had cooked the porridge into rice and it was not yet cooked. His face turned red instantly. .

"Sister, I'll wash it!"

"You have other things to do."

Jiang Minghong looked at his sister in confusion.

Jiang Mingyue handed the two newly cleaned bowls to her younger brother.

"Give it back to Brother Xie for my sister."

"it is good!"

Next door, Xie Yuan took the bowl and saw Jiang Minghong looking at the study curiously. The corners of his mouth raised and then quickly flattened. He put the bowl aside and asked, "Would you like to come in and take a look?"

Jiang Minghong turned his head and looked at Xie Yuan.

"Is it okay, Mr. Xie?"

Xie Yuan nodded.

In the study room, Jiang Minghong looked at the rows of books, his eyes full of surprise. Xie Yuan actually had more books here than at his home.

After obtaining Xie Yuan's consent, Jiang Minghong took a copy, opened it and asked in surprise: "Manuscript?"

"Well, I copied most of the books here by hand."

"Hong admires sir for having such perseverance."

Xie Yuan smiled, found a book and handed it to Jiang Minghong: "It has nothing to do with perseverance. The reason why I wanted to copy the book by hand was because I couldn't afford the book at the time. Later, when I copied the book, I found that not only could I calm down, After consolidating what I have learned and practicing calligraphy, I like it even more.”

He paused and said, "The book you have in your hand contains some of my experiences in taking the Children's Student Examination. You might as well take a good look at it."

"Thank you sir."

"sit down!"

The two of them sat at the desk, one reading and the other reading, without disturbing each other.

At the same time, Jiang Mingyue clumsily cleaned the kitchen, came to the main hall, lit the oil lamp, took out the sewing basket, and embroidered her purse.

Although her cooking skills were average, she was excellent at embroidery. At first, she followed her mother to learn embroidery in order to make beautiful clothes. Later, she gradually fell in love with embroidery and worked hard on it.

The finished products she embroidered can always be sold for a high price in Yuanjiang Mansion.

Once I was immersed in embroidery, I lost all sense of time and didn't even notice my brother coming in.

Jiang Minghong looked at his sister who was quietly embroidering her purse. He did not disturb her, but silently lit the oil lamp.

The change in the surrounding light brought Jiang Mingyue back to her senses. She raised her head and looked at her returning brother: "What time is it?"

"The end of the Xu period."

Jiang Mingyue put down her purse after hearing this.

"Why have you been gone so long?"

"I read a book in Mr. Xie's study."

He paused and looked at his sister: "From now on, I can go to Mr. Xie's place to read for half an hour every morning."

Jiang Mingyue said happily when she heard this: "That's great. It seems that Brother Xie likes you very much!"

After saying that, she saw that there was not much joy on her brother's face and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sister, I feel a little uneasy. We are not related to Mr. Xie. Why does he take care of us everywhere?"

"Are you afraid that he has ulterior motives?" Jiang Mingyue poured a cup of tea and handed it to her brother.

Jiang Minghong nodded lightly while holding the tea.

"Do you think there is anything in you that he can plot?"

Jiang Minghong fell silent upon hearing this.

"No, right?"

Jiang Minghong said 'hmm'.

"Do you still remember Brother Yang?"

Sister Jiang Minghongzhi is talking about Escort Master Yang in the escort agency.

"Remember!"

"Since we entered the escort agency, he has taken care of us everywhere. I can say that without him, we would not be able to get to Wanping.

"Brother, there are bad people in this world, but there are always more good people than bad people. Besides, my brother is smart and studious. Maybe Brother Xie just loves talents."

Sister's words temporarily dispelled Jiang Minghong's doubts. This life is different from his previous life. He should not look at Xie Yuan in this life with the eyes of his previous life. Moreover, in his previous life, he knew Xie Yuan who was thirty-five years old. And now he is only twenty-one.

"Thank you sister, brother understands."

Jiang Mingyue gently touched her brother's head and asked warmly: "When will you go tomorrow morning?"

"At the beginning of Mao Shi."

"So early?"

"Sister, just get up at 30:30 as before. I will buy breakfast and come back after the morning reading."

"It's better for me to buy it! It's very late, go back and have a rest!" Jiang Mingyue said, lighting another oil lamp and handing it to her brother.

Something is on my mind. The next day, Jiang Mingyue woke up as soon as there was movement next door. When her brother got up, she couldn't sleep anymore. However, she did not get up immediately, but waited for her brother to leave before dressing and washing herself.

Next door, Xie Yuan led Jiang Minghong into the study, took out a book and handed it to him.

"Read it for yourself first, and then ask me if you don't understand anything."

"Yes!"

Jiang Minghong took the book respectfully and opened it to find that it was the test questions from the child examinations in various counties in the past ten years. He was suddenly surprised and did not know how Xie Yuan collected them.

"Meditation!"

Jiang Minghong immediately calmed down and looked attentively.

At the same time, Jiang Mingyue opened the courtyard door and walked out carrying a small basket.

Although the sky was slightly bright, people were already coming and going on the street. The further we walked toward the East Market, the more people there were. There were porters carrying burdens, farmers selling vegetables, woodcutters pushing carts, hunters carrying game, and so on.

When she came to the East Market, Jiang Mingyue followed the crowds and walked around. The vegetable sellers had special locations, the fish and river fresh food sellers also had fixed locations, and the same was true for the meat sellers...

As long as you go to a special place, you can buy what you want. After shopping for a while, Jiang Mingyue stopped in front of an egg stall.

Eggs cost one penny for two. Jiang Mingyue bought thirty eggs in total and paid. She was about to buy breakfast when she suddenly heard several women saying that they wanted to buy some beef to try.

Jiang Mingyue looked at the people walking past her and couldn't help but follow them.

Dachu law prohibits people from privately slaughtering cattle. The government keeps records of how many cattle there are in each county. Killing cattle is a serious crime. Therefore, beef is rarely seen on the market. Occasionally, beef is sold, but most of them die of old age or illness. Then there are the cows that died in accidents, and they can only be sold after being inspected by someone from the government.

Jiang Mingyue followed the crowd, and after listening to their discussion, she realized that the cow was killed by another cow. It was only three years old when the meat was delicious.

When Jiang Mingyue heard this, she thought of beef dumplings, braised beef, and potato beef, and her mouth watered.

Although there are many people buying beef, most of them buy one or two kilograms for a taste. After all, beef is very expensive, so when it was Jiang Mingyue's turn, only less than half of a cow was sold.

"How many pounds of beef does the girl want?"

"Six pounds!"

When the old man selling beef heard that she wanted six pounds, he looked at her in surprise and confirmed it again.

"The girl really wants six pounds."

"Well, you can cut it!" Jiang Mingyue thought very well. She left three kilograms for Xie Yuan as a return gift for the fried rabbit meat yesterday.

"it is good!"

When Jiang Mingyue paid, the old man generously gave her two cow bones. She put the cow bones into the basket and saw that there was a small half bucket of milk next to it, so she bought the milk and bucket together.

She happily left Dongshi with milk, beef, and breakfast. Only then did she realize one thing, she couldn't do it!
