Busy farming with Taobao

Chapter 269 Uncle He

"Zhou Xiucai, I heard that your father-in-law made this spicy strip. It's amazing! The most talked about topic recently is, have you eaten the spicy strip? Are you still selling it?"

The driver was a man in his fifties, and he chatted with Zhou Bei as soon as he left the city.

This car was specially used for hauling goods, and only Xiao Baoer could be seated in the compartment, and the seats were very limited, Zhou Bei was sitting in the driver's seat.

"It was researched by my father-in-law."

Zhou Bei smiled and nodded.

"The stewed meat in the county is still the recipe of your Yuejia Xiangmanyuan before? I once tasted it as if it tasted wrong, and it was better than the previous Xiangmanyuan."

The coachman said again.

This coachman is from Qinghe Town, and he travels back and forth with Wuxian County and the following towns all year round. He has eaten Xiangmanyuan's dishes a few times, and sometimes he will buy some braised meat for his family to eat.

"It was improved on the basis of the original by my two uncles."

Zhou Bei replied.

"Your Yue's family is really powerful! People in the county said before that the Lu family has collapsed, but I don't think so. In my opinion, with the abilities of the Lu family and his son, it's only a matter of time before they make a comeback!"

The coachman sighed.

Zhou Bei actually wanted to say that the most powerful member of the Yue family is my wife.

"Uncle, is your car your own or someone else's?"

Xiao Baoer popped his head out and asked.

"Miss Xiucai is not asleep! Put down the curtain quickly, don't let the wind blow in. You can hear us talking even if you put down the curtain."

The coachman said.

"It's okay, uncle, I can't sleep, I'll chat with you. Time flies by chatting."

Xiao Baoer said.

"Are you really all right? Is Mrs. Tang hugged? Don't let yourself freeze."

Zhou Bei was genuinely concerned.

"Holding it!" Xiao Bao'er responded, and continued to ask, "Uncle, you haven't told me yet, is your car your own or did you drive it for someone else?"

"This is my own. A few years ago, my son earned some money, and there happened to be a batch of horses for sale in the Yamen, so I chose a horse to go back and forth between the county and town to pick up goods for people, or to take passengers."

The coachman said sadly.

"My wife and I have only one son. A few years ago, our son and daughter-in-law had an accident, leaving behind a grandson and granddaughter. The grandson is studying well, but the cost of this academy is also high, so I go out to drive the car every day, and the wife goes to the rich family every day. We are old couples, we just hope that our grandson can read well, and our granddaughter can marry a good family. Oh, look at me, why tell you these things!"

The coachman didn't know what was going on today, and told the guests about his own situation. He had never lost his composure before.

He felt that it might be because the person sitting in the car today was a granary student from Wu County, who was also a child from a poor family, so he said a few more words!

"So uncle, you are He Ming's grandfather!"

Zhou Bei said in surprise.

"Zhou Xiucai recognizes my grandson?"

The coachman said in surprise.

"Of course I recognize him. The gentleman from the academy once praised He Ming, and He Ming's husband and the next gentleman are good friends!"

Zhou Beidao.

Because his husband mentioned it, and he was from Qinghe Town, and he also lamented that He Ming's life was hard. He lost his parents when he was young, and he suffered a lot at an age that he shouldn't have to bear.

He also said that He Ming himself is very talented, like him, as long as he knows how to work hard, he will definitely be able to achieve fame in the future.
