Liu Laozhu thought Mrs. Xu would pretend.

For example, when receiving money, he would pretend to be polite to him: "If the rations for the return journey are particularly well prepared, wouldn't it cost you a lot of money? And even the money for my family's meals will be counted as yours, okay?"

Then, although he didn't dare to act like he did in front of his wife, showing a staring expression of "Slap you, buy it quickly", at least he would wave his hand grandly, don't ink, he treats you.Can the Xu family have three bites to eat? He is so human.

Liu Laozhu has even thought out the words here, and Qing waits for Xu's sister to pave the way.

But he didn't want him to hand over the money, and the old girl from the Xu family took the money and turned around to leave, as if she was afraid that he would regret it, and made a deal with the shopkeeper that she would continue to borrow the stove at midnight tonight.

Liu Laozhu's desire to show off a few words has no place to release: "..."

He gave it as fast as one or two silver coins, 920 three copper coins. Apart from spending for his own family at such a young age, he is rarely so generous to outsiders.

Why don't you give me a chance to show off.

Let's see, maybe when the boys return to the village, they may not remember his kindness, but they will keep telling the family that Aunt Xu has worked hard all the way, and she has to prepare meals for everyone on the way, and Auntie bought oranges for her.He had already seen through Erdaohe and the others.

To Mrs. Xu, he is a supporting role.

……

And Mrs. Xu here is really happy to accept the money given by Liu Laozhu.

Otherwise, she would have to buy ten salted duck eggs for everyone out of her own pocket.

Before, Mrs. Xu thought that she could give so much to the boys in the village. She cut a duck egg into four pieces and gave them a share on the road.

Not to mention that everyone took care of each other along the way, just say that she is also an elder, and she bought so much money and goods to go home, and regardless of how much money was spent, she had to say that she made a lot of money along the way.So no matter how hard you think about living your life, you can't be short of ten or eight salted duck eggs.

What's more, it rained in the past two days. Most of the ancient roads were paved and not deliberately paved. Some mountain roads are muddy and may require walking. The walking here is not a three- to two-hour walk, but a day or two.

She and Tian Xin couldn't walk, and it was difficult for her family's truck to be pulled by the third child alone, and the boy in the village needed to help.

This time it's all right, since Liu Laozhu is going to be generous with his blood, Mrs. Xu decided to make it happen. Not only does she have money to buy a few more salted duck eggs, but she also plans to marinate some tea eggs by herself. It is no problem to marinate more than 30 eggs. I can't waste my time in vain. By the way, I will marinate some bean curd, lotus root slices, and potato slices for the boys to eat on the road.

Then make some sesame paste, stir-fry some flour, homemade fried instant noodles, fried some deep-fried meat sauce, and take it with you. It will take about ten days for the return trip, and finally you don’t have to worry about the boys watching her granddaughter eating snacks and instant noodles alone.

Mrs. Xu calculated in her heart that in addition to the above, she also needed to buy some dried eggplants and peppers.Autumn vegetables are cheap, buy a piece of bacon, cut a few slices at a time, and you can stir-fry vegetables with oil in the bottom of the pan.

In terms of vegetables, I need to buy a few more Chinese cabbage and green onions and wash them in advance. I also buy two autumn green radishes and carrot cores. She saw that there are Shandong pancakes in Fucheng, cornmeal, whole wheat and white flour. have.Isn't there such a saying?Shandong pancake rolls everything, and the world is dipped in Northeast miso.When you are in a hurry and don't cook, you can eat these rolls.

If the 920 three copper coins are purchased and there are still leftovers, in fact, Mrs. Xu still wants to buy some sorbets for everyone.

Autumn pears are cheap and thirst-quenching.

After this trip, she found that not all places have water to drink, and not all creeks are clear, and some water can be buried.

Boiling the turbid water on the side of the road and letting it cool can barely feed the mules and cows.At that time, if you really can't do it, you can eat pears, and it will satisfy your cravings.The mountain pears and mountain grapes here in Fucheng are quite big, and the ones that can be sold for money are different from the ones that I picked on the mountain.

Only in this way does it seem that the journey back is not bitter. There are staple foods, meat sauce, vegetables, protein, and even fruits.

But it was a good idea, and the copper plate given by Liu Laozhu was enough, but the only problem was that no matter what Mrs. Xu was preparing, she had to consider whether it could be put on the car or not.

Like pears, if you have money to buy a bag, there is no place to stack it. The six mule carts are already full and stacked high.At that time, even her granddaughter will have to sit on the cotton to get a seat.

At this time, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu came out to buy, besides the three of them, there were also two other boys in the village. They came out to watch the excitement and help carry things.

Hearing Mrs. Xu complaining that she couldn't pretend not to buy pears anymore, she hurriedly said: "Other things, auntie, give each of us a few to carry with us." It can be seen that we are really familiar, and I am ashamed to expose it in front of Mrs. Xu. .

The old lady Xu thought that she had enough to carry with her. For example, the wooden bowls and cups bought by her family should be distributed to the boys to hang in front of their necks, instead of carrying them on their backs.When I went back to the county, there was still a car full of gas and I didn't know what to do. It seemed that I had to hire a car in the county to take it to the village.

"Sure, anyway, it's your Uncle Li Zheng's treat, so we'll spend all of it, as long as you don't mind carrying your things."

It's time to spend, these children are heroes.

As long as these truckloads of goods go back, Mrs. Xu will help Liu Laozhu settle the accounts. After a month of tossing around, it will be no problem to sell them all and earn only six or seventy taels.

Mrs. Xu and the others didn't dare to delay, and went straight to the grain and oil store to buy what they needed.

The few of them couldn't even watch the excitement outside the city, because they were in a hurry to go back to catch up on sleep, especially Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin.It takes midnight to prepare food, or the kitchen in the inn won’t be vacant to cook somewhere, and you have to prepare breakfast before departure tomorrow.

It is expensive to buy a bowl of noodles outside, and it is better for eleven people to buy and eat than to cook by themselves.Breakfast has to be ready at four or five o'clock for everyone to eat, so as not to delay the opening of the city gate at 05:30.

As for tomorrow morning's meal, Mrs. Xu still plans to make a good meal.

Her granddaughter hasn't eaten rice for a long time, let alone other people. She wants to take this opportunity to eat dry rice, and buy a few catties of stewed rice for more than 20 yuan per catty, and then stew a big one with pumpkin, potato, corn and bean shreds. Put more oil in the pot, I believe that the boys who can eat breakfast tomorrow will not feel hard on the road until the evening.

But Mrs. Xu and the others didn't go to see the excitement, which doesn't mean they didn't hear about the situation of the troops stationed outside the city.

I heard that General Zhenbei and his party marched all the way from the capital to Xiangping in a hurry, and they had to stop to rest when they arrived here in one breath.

I heard that several restaurants in Fucheng are linked together at the same time, and they are queuing up to deliver meals outside the city led by the government servants, and even several pastry shops have also sent all the pastries.

What the common people like to talk about is that scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen always go to the group of people who want to be plucked when they have something to do.Don't listen to the official office saying that it will be reimbursed, usually it becomes a bad debt if it is owed first.But just when everyone thought that these shops in Fucheng were going to be taken advantage of, the Huo family army changed from the previous officials' style, not only ordered Fucheng officials not to send food outside the city, but also sent a servant to give the food sent to the bank.

I also heard that the people rushed to the city tower to see what the Huo family's soldiers looked like, and they were all driven back by the government officials and soldiers.Because in front of the big tent outside the city, officials at all levels, including the prefect and prefect, were nodding and bowing around General Zhenbei to report the situation.Furthermore, since the Huo family army is stationed outside the city, there is no need for the common people to line up to welcome them, so it is better not to bother them.

At this time, Huo Yunqian was standing outside the big tent, listening to the officials of the government office to introduce the granary storage of grain, and the officials he needed to contact during the mutual market, as the common people saw. He was watching these people's three-year report and approval. Crossing out the names of the four officials made Dazhou's eyelids twitch.

As soon as he arrived, he started to take care of local internal affairs, even the dismissal of officials?

Fortunately, Huo Yunqian was only dismissed in terms of the mutual market, saying that this was a discretionary reduction of personnel. Aren't these people recuperating?Then continue to rest.He doesn't care whether he resumes his official position after the end of the exchange market.

Zhizhou thought to himself: With your words, who would dare to use them?
And the most perverted thing among the people is that some people in the teahouse said that General Huo was nine feet tall, handsome and majestic, and he was worthy of being a general.Yushu faces the wind and is a beautiful young man, embracing the environment and looking after himself at night without sleep.

The boys in the village asked Xu Tianxin: What do you mean?
Xu Tianxin: "I'm so handsome that I can't sleep every day."

The grandparents and grandchildren felt that the words were too watery. They were so far away, and the common people were driven back when they couldn't even go up the city tower. How could they see it clearly? It was pure nonsense.

Mrs. Xu and the others happily listened to the gossip and bought the necessary ingredients and returned to the inn. Unexpectedly, when they opened the door of the big house, they saw Liu Laozhu beating his son.

"Get out, get out of here!" A shoe almost flew in front of Mrs. Xu.

At first, Liu Jingye was looking for human words, but finally realized that his false military service might be exposed, and there was really no other way to remedy it, so he had to go around the Wang family in the future.He also understands that his father is helping the villagers so stupidly that he is really helping him in disguise.

However, Liu Laozhu never expected that when he forgave his eldest son for exhorting him, the eldest son would start asking about the house in the wasteland.

That piece of land is large, and it is being built right now if it is removed or rented or sold to the villagers at a low price. There is still a large piece of open space that can be reserved for building houses in the spring of next year. Even if you have money now, you can build a few more before the freezing However, Liu Jingye was very afraid that his parents would give it to his younger brother.

"I'm not dead yet!"
