I'm serious about the calamity of fast wear

Chapter 493 The Cannon Fodder Who Died in Exile (11)

Hearing his parents' question, Shi Jiang pursed his lips and smiled, but didn't answer, and Shi's father and mother didn't care.

Shi Jiang also poured a bowl of milk tea by herself and drank it into her mouth. It was no different from the one she drank before, sweet and delicious.

Father Shi drank it all in one gulp, and poured the few pearls at the bottom of the bowl into his mouth to chew.

"This thing is really powerful."

After finishing speaking, while chewing on the pearl, he sawed off all the bamboos he cut just now.

After sawing, put it in a basin to clean, and tear off the white film in the bamboo tube.

I also smoothed the place where the saw was cut, so as not to puncture the mouth when drinking.

Shi Jiang took a look at the bamboo sticks that Shi's father chopped down. Unfortunately, these bamboo sticks are too thin. It is barely enough to drink only milk tea, but the pearls in the bamboo tube cannot be sucked up.

It seemed that she had to find a slightly thicker bamboo joint that was about the size of her little finger as a straw.

In summer, you can also make fruit tea.

Shi Jiang told Shi's father like this, Shi's father nodded in agreement, and when he was free, he would ask others to see if there was a bamboo as thick as a little finger.

After thinking about it, Shi Mu hesitated and asked, "Is that kind of reed okay?"

There are many tidal-like places here, where it is impossible to grow anything, so many reeds grow beside them.

She also heard from Mrs. Cai that when she had spare time, she could go and chop some reeds and weave them into reed mats, which could be placed under the bed.

Mrs. Cai showed her a piece of reed, and said that there are many places here.

When she heard her daughter describe it just now, her first reaction was this reed.

Shi Jiang's eyes lit up when he heard Shi Mu's words.

"Mom, of course. Let's chop some and bring them back, soak them with these bamboo tubes, and use them tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, you two stay at home honestly, I'll chop."

Shi's father hastily stopped the excited mother and daughter, there is no need for a woman to do such chopping and moving.

Early the next morning, Shi's father took a bucket of boiled milk tea and a jar of pearls, as well as an iron boiler and spring pancakes with side dishes, and headed to the county in Uncle Cai's bullock cart.

Regarding today's business, Shi Jiang wasn't worried at all, so she turned around and went to tend her sweet potatoes in the backyard.

When it was Shi's mother, she was restless, even more anxious than when she followed Shi's father to the capital to take office.

Until almost noon, when Shi Mu had just finished lunch, there was a noise outside the door, Shi Mu ran out immediately, and saw Shi's father's expression of joy, after moving the guy out of the ox cart, Uncle Cai drove the ox cart gone.

Shi's mother waited until Shi's father took all the things back to the yard and closed the gate before asking.

"How is the business? Does anyone want to eat these things?"

Shi's father triumphantly lifted the lid of the pot, and signaled Shi's mother to look inside the bucket. There were no spring pancakes and side dishes left, and the same goes for milk tea.

"You don't know, at first they didn't dare to come forward to eat. It was because I boldly yelled that it was not delicious and free of money, so some of them came to try it. Then spread the word to ten, ten to hundreds, many people who are not in the academy Come to buy pancakes and milk tea to eat. Especially milk tea, everyone said that it is full of milk flavor, and I have never had such a sweet drink. But after a while, everything is sold out."

If Shi's father hadn't gone to buy materials again, he wouldn't have come back until now.

Of course, the slow speed of using an ox cart is also related.

The family of three ate first, and after a quick meal, Shi's father took out the money bag and poured out the copper coins inside.

After careful counting, there are a total of 930 articles.

After deducting the cost of less than 700 Wen, it is equivalent to earning more than [-] Wen in such a morning.

If it comes down to one month, then there will be a net income of more than 20 taels of silver.

In the capital city, the income of twenty or so taels of silver this month is nothing.

But here, with an income of more than 20 taels, it proves that their family can live well.

It won't even be long before they can buy a maid for their daughter and wife, so they don't have to work so hard to cook and wash clothes by themselves.

After all, the annual income of ordinary people here is only a few taels of silver.

"Don't worry, Dad, when the sauce is ready, the business will be even better."

Hearing Shi's father's plan, Shi Jiang said to him with a smile.

Because of the success of spring pancakes and milk tea, Shi's father and Shi's mother are very confident in the garlic soybean paste that their daughter said.

However, it's okay even if it doesn't work, after all, these two things are enough for their family of three to live well here.

The family of three was laughing foolishly, when they heard a loud noise from the Wu family next door, and then a shrill cry of a woman pierced the sky above the yard.

"This Wu's house really hasn't stopped. It's only been quiet for a few days. Why did it start to be noisy again?"

The smile on Shi's father's original face was slightly reduced, and he frowned and said.

After hearing Shi's father's words, Shi's mother sighed.

"I know about this. Mrs. Cai told me that Wu Tongpan was planning to marry his concubine Wu Yingchun to the butcher in the village. You don't even know that the butcher is about your age. His mother-in-law was beaten, and there are three children in the family, the eldest is older than Wu Yingchun, Wu Tong judged that this is trying to force his daughter to death!"

Hearing Shi's mother's words, Shi's father pursed his lips, and the last trace of smile disappeared from his face.

He was really ashamed that he had been sentenced to the same dynasty as an official with Wu Tong.

No matter what, even though the daughter is a concubine, she is Wu Tongpan's own flesh and blood after all.

He didn't believe it, but relying on Wu Tongpan's wife, this matter could be settled.

How could the mess in the backyard be done without the tacit consent of the host?
However, poor people must have something to hate.

The few concubine children of the Wu family, only Wu Zihao took his wife and went out of the house forcefully.

Shi's father remembered that Wu Yingchun and Wu Zihao were from the same mother.

If Wu Yingchun was willing to leave the Wu family with Wu Zihao at that time, I am afraid that he would not have ended up like this.

In the end, it was just that he was afraid of suffering with his elder brother who had gone out of the house, so he hid in Wu's house, thinking that he could live in peace.

But she didn't want to, she was the one who hurt herself in the end!

"From now on, our young master will communicate with their family."

Father Shi was silent for a long time, and then said seriously to his wife and daughter.

From his point of view, except for Wu Zihao, who had just left the house and had a little bit of backbone, the rest of the Wu family were probably not good people.

Especially after being shut down that time, he had a lot of problems with the Wu family.

I am afraid that my daughter is still young and doesn't understand the good and bad of people's hearts. If Wu Yingchun comes to ask for it, my daughter will easily believe what other people say. What if she is deceived?
