Famous Doctor Woman

Chapter 802 Poor (2)
The husband and wife have discussed this issue many times, and they have already sent someone to watch Xia Ruoxue. If there is any trouble, Gu Bao will receive first-hand information.

Wan Teng Yuling nodded, staring at the chessboard indifferently, the car was silent.

The direction of Shangqiu County going deep into the basin is Xiaqiu County, which is a well-known poverty-stricken area in Lizhou.

There are few fertile fields in Xiaqiu, and the people are doing side jobs. The carriages travel from early morning to sunset before reaching the boundary of Xiaqiu County.

The upper hill and the lower hill are not far apart, but the road is muddy and rugged on rainy days. I only see people coming out of the boundary of the lower hill, but there are not many people on the road.

The micro-service went out to observe the people's conditions. The group was quite casual, and no specific route was specially formulated, nor was it arranged in advance.

The horse's hooves stepped on the rainwater, splashing water and mud spots all around, and there was a rhythmic rattling sound.

It was dark, and the coachman lit a lantern to illuminate it. At the corner of the street, he saw a two-story inn.

The inn is old and smells of decay. The best guest rooms on the second floor are clean and tidy, but the corners of the walls are already soggy and mottled.

The quilt on the bed is as if it has not been dried after being washed. If you wring it out hard, water will come out.

Mo Yan sat on the chair and frowned, this house can barely shelter from the wind and rain, how can people live there?The bed was wet, and no one caught the cold the next day.

There was only one guy on night duty in the inn, who was very curious about the appearance of everyone, but he wisely didn't ask anything, and quickly brought hot water with his hands and feet.

In order to hurry, none of the group had dinner, so Mo Zi gave the waiter a handful of copper coins, and followed him to the kitchen downstairs to prepare for dinner.

"Little brother, you still come to bother me at such a late hour. Our master and wife are used to eating the meals I cook. I don't know what other ingredients are there?"

When Mo Zi entered the kitchen, her heart was half cold. There was only some rice in the rice jar, and the color could tell it was old rice.

"The kitchen in our inn is just a decoration, and it is usually used to boil water."

The little guy scratched his head, looked at the heavy copper plate in his hand, felt that he could not reap the benefits of others in vain, and said bravely, "It's raining and cold, why don't you make some hot noodle soup?"

There is a small vat next to the rice vat for flour, which is still fine white flour. The guy thinks that rich people are demanding, and looking around, only fine white flour can be sold.

"Alright, I wonder if there are any small green vegetables?"

Mo Zi looked at it without showing any traces. The buddy's coarse clothes were washed clean, but there were also two patches on his body.

In general, there is no one who welcomes guests in an inn with a patched shirt. It can be predicted that Xiaqiu is really poor.

"There is a vegetable garden in the backyard of our inn."

The man smiled embarrassedly. There used to be a courtyard over there as a guest room, but there were too few people coming to the county. Their inn was on the main street, and the price was more expensive. No one from outside would stay here.

The owner saw that the open space was idle, so he planted a lot of vegetables to save some money for buying vegetables.

"Beans are the best."

There is no meat, only noodles and vegetables, with all the seasonings, and Mo Zi finally made braised beans noodles.

"Well, Mo Zi, it's really hard for you, the noodles are pretty good."

Mo Yan's bowl soon bottomed out, and after rinsing her mouth, she tapped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and said, "Give the guy some more money."

"Yes."

Mo Zi also thinks it should be, just such a small jar of white flour, she made some noodles and used up all of them, and the guards were all gnawing on the hard pancakes.

The guy clicked his tongue again and again, as expected of a rich man from out of town, he ate his month's ration in just one meal.

Mo Yan didn't sleep well that night, she heard the sound of rain falling, and someone hugged her shoulder in a trance, the fragrance of that person made her feel very at ease.

At dawn the next day, Mo Yan rubbed her eyes and realized that she was holding on to Wanqi Yuling in an extremely indecent position, with her arms around his neck and her legs wrapped around his waist. The husband is still sleeping, so quickly destroy the scene.

"woke up?"

Wan Teng Yuling opened her eyes, stared at her bent legs calmly, raised her eyebrows, and there was a slight smile in her black pupils.

"kindness."

Mo Yan rubbed his nose, quickly straightened his posture, and helped Wanqi Yuling massage in a fawning manner. This night, he should have been tortured by her so that he couldn't fall asleep.

Mo Yan couldn't sleep well, and her face had an abnormal blush at night.It was rainy and cold, and it was inevitable that she would be infected with moisture. Wan Qi Yuling hugged her and used her body to keep warm.

Who knew that his wife was a character who could climb along the pole, tightly entangled him, the bodies of the husband and wife fit together tightly, and the fragrance that belonged to her was lingering at the tip of the nose. I couldn't bear to disturb her, and couldn't do anything, so I just endured it all night.

The rain was still falling, much lighter than last night, and turned into a fine drizzle. Noisy noises began to be heard downstairs from the inn, and there was a market not far away.

For breakfast, Mo Zi bought pancakes in advance, and she made a simple spinach soup.

"Your maidservant is really eye-opening. You can't even spend any copper coins to buy vegetables here."

There are no extra ingredients in the inn, according to the staff's instructions, before dawn, Mo Zi will go to the market.

There were a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables in the market, Mo Zi was very happy, and immediately took out copper coins to buy them.

"No copper plates."

The aunt who bought vegetables spoke a rural dialect, she slowed down her speech, Mo Zi was taken aback when she understood, she didn't want copper coins, did she want silver?

"Take an egg, two eggs, for a big bundle."

The aunt was very stubborn, she refused the copper plate in Mo Zi's hand, and continued to yell, Mo Zi was in a fog, and went to several shops in a row, and found that the market here did not need money, and it was basically a barter model.

The common people had their own things they needed, and after changing them, they left. Mo Zi went around and returned without success.

Eggs and meat are in short supply. There is an old man who sells pork whose son is going on a long trip. He needs money. Mo Zi bought the pork and exchanged it for sesame seed cakes, eggs, rice noodles and other ingredients.

Using the most primitive method to exchange is not necessarily equivalent, which shows how backward Xiaqiu County is.

Mo Yan was more interested in the customs of Xiaqiu, and after breakfast, she couldn't wait to go out for a walk.

The little guy had a day off from his bath and was about to go home when Mo Zi saw him and gave him a piece of meat. She thought that people here didn't seem to need money very much.

"It is also necessary, but it is not so strong. You may not understand it when you come to Xiaqiu for the first time. Our ancestors came here like this."

The folks have their own way of bartering, but the big families are not used to it. They will buy in shops in the city and trade with money.
