Farmhouse smoke rises

Chapter 41

On the second day, Su Yu arrived at the market very early, carrying Wang Sang this morning and the money that Li's wife had given her earlier, to make a pair of tweezers for her grandma, and a new pair of ox plow sticks for her family.

When Su Gu'an found out last night that Wang Sang actually wanted to spend money on the "useless" tweezers, let alone how unhappy he was.Originally, the family is very tight now, and I can't even eat a good meal. How can I have spare money to make tweezers.

But on the surface, the head of the family is Su Gu'an, and Wang Sang has the final say in the family. She didn't explain anything to Su Gu'an, and directly said harshly: "If you give, you have to give, and if you don't give, you don't have to." have to give."

Su Gu'an couldn't resist her, so he had to obediently take out the money.

Su Yu watched the two people quarreling awkwardly, feeling very uncomfortable.Although Wang Sang is a peasant woman, she treats her elders most filially, so there is a reason for doing so.

So early in the morning, while Su Guan was going out to work, Su Yu went to find Su Guan while Wang Sang was cooking in the house.At that time, Su Gu'an was still bruising the cow dung from last night, and Su Yu was standing in a clean place beside him, talking: "Father, don't blame my mother, she is also filial."

Su Gu'an saw someone who could tell his heart, pulled Su Yu and talked non-stop: "I don't blame her, look how difficult our family is now, we can't get any spare money out, she just I'm not sensible, so what if the tweezers are used or not?"

Su Yu sighed. She also felt that Wang Sang's actions were of no use. With that money, she might as well add clothes to her grandma. But since it was persuading people, it was natural to persuade them to make peace and not to persuade them to leave, so she could only say: "Father, I understand what you think, but we should also compare our hearts to each other, right? You see, as soon as you have something good, why do you think of taking it for my grandpa first, especially grandma is already blind in one eye, This eyelash is always down, what if the other eye is also blind? Also, my mother never said how much money she spent on my grandma for a year, just this one time, you can just let her go, anyway, tomorrow I'm going to run errands, so you don't need to worry about it, do you?"

Besides, Su Yu had to go to the town this time, and she still had things to do.

Su Gu'an felt a lot better after being persuaded by Su Yu.Thinking about it is also true. After all, as a junior, it is understandable to take care of the elderly and think more about the elderly. Although I always bring things for his father, Wang Sang is not happy to say it, but I never let him take it. , If you think about it this way, it's nothing.

"Then Dayu, you have to be careful when you go to the town alone." Su Gu'an urged.

Seeing that Su Gu'an and Wang Sang didn't need her to worry about anything, Su Yu rushed to the town after breakfast.

Looking at it again this time, the town is not as prosperous as the last time I came here. Maybe a lot of people have gone to harvest. There are many shops with locked doors, and small things are sold on the street. There are also fewer merchants.

Occasionally, many soldiers on horseback can be seen passing by quickly, causing panic on the street.Qingshui Village is right between Sioux City and the border, and if Sioux City is a large city guarding the border, there is not even a small stronghold near Qingshui Village, so so many soldiers came out this time, I don’t know why It's not that the border is not smooth anymore.

Su Yu didn't know anything about state affairs and politics, the water was too deep there, how could a commoner like her understand the mysteries, all she could do was to keep their family safe.

So with this mentality, looking at the soldiers on the street is like watching the excitement.

Although he arrived in the town, Su Yu didn't go directly to the blacksmith's shop, but turned into a restaurant that looked a little rough.

Qingshui Town does not have any very luxurious buildings, except for the mansion of the Golden Landlord, which is the Fugui Restaurant in the town, and the Shunfeng Restaurant that Su Yu went to happened to be in the small alley where the Fugui Restaurant turned left. Looking at the main entrance, you can still see the situation at the entrance of Fugui Restaurant.

Shunfeng Restaurant is very simple and the lighting is not good, as soon as you enter, there is a musty smell.Su Yu covered his mouth and nose, and looked towards the counter over there, where a sloppy boss was fumbling with his abacus. He didn't even greet Su Yu when he came in, and he didn't even raise his head.

It was Su Yu who went to the counter and asked, and the man asked lazily: "What do you want to eat, just tell me."

Su Yu sneered from the bottom of his heart, if I say I eat ginseng and deer antler, can you still have it here?
"I don't live in a store, and I don't eat. I just want to buy a piece of paper." Su Yu explained patiently, although he was very unhappy.The reason why she came to the restaurant to buy paper was because she didn't know where to buy it, but she thought it was necessary for the restaurant to keep accounts.

"How many do you want?" The shopkeeper finally raised his head this time. Su Yu originally thought he would be a wretched uncle, but unexpectedly he was actually a delicate young man.Although Lu Xiuyue is also a delicate young student, but Lu Xiuyue has big eyes, at first glance she would think she is a girl, but this shop owner is different, her eyes are slender and sharp, she looks very shrewd.

"Just ask for one." Su Yu replied with a smile.

The shopkeeper randomly rummaged through the counter below, and finally found the account book, without looking at it, he tore off a piece of paper from the back: "Here, you don't need to pay."

Su Yu saw that this man was quite generous, so he took the paper bluntly, "I still need charcoal."

The man didn't ask what Su Yu wanted the charcoal for, but obviously he didn't want to give Su Yu any more, so he pointed to the curtain behind: "You go through here, there's it in the backyard, go find it yourself."

"Okay." Su Yu nodded.She asked for charcoal because she wanted to draw pictures. The reason why she didn't ask for a brush was because she was not good at using it, and she was afraid that it would not work well.

After arriving in the backyard, the scene she imagined really happened, but she obviously didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, so she took the charcoal and went back to the front.

This time, I looked at the Fugui Restaurant across the street, and the entrance was actually full of soldiers, all of them with cold eyes, as if they had put the whole street in the middle of the night.

Su Yu sat down calmly, began to draw a rough shape of a nail clipper with charcoal, and then drew the drawings of the parts on the side.She thought about it for a long time last night. If she doesn't have the money to make big things, she should start with small things. Anyway, Chen Guo doesn't have nail clippers. If she monopolizes this thing, she will have no worries for the rest of her life.

This time, the store owner seemed to be interested in Su Yu, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he walked slowly to Su Yu's side.

"Is there nothing you want to tell me?"

This time it was Su Yu's turn to not look up, she was still busy drawing. "What? Said you tied up the real store owner and put it in the backyard? Or should I beg you not to kill me?"

The man found it even more interesting when Su Yu asked him such a rhetorical question. "Aren't you afraid that you will never be able to get out of this door?"

"Scared, why not afraid, but I think," Su Yu raised his head and smiled playfully at the man: "If you want to kill me, I can't escape, so I don't need to be afraid at all. Maybe this is called breaking the pot and falling?"

The man looked at Su Yu and was taken aback: "Haha... What a brave little girl!"

Su Yu also laughed. She had been suspicious of this man since he couldn't find the account book just now. When she went to the backyard, she found that the real shop owner had been tied up by him.This kind of person seems to have some ulterior purpose, so Su Yu can only gamble.

Bet that this kind of perverted killer has special hobbies, such as admiring those who are not afraid of him.But Su Yu was really scared, her hands under the table were trembling, but Su Yu was better at pretending, I hope she can be deceived.

"By the way, brother, I have something to tell you."

"what?"

"Your beard is crooked." Su Yu pointed at the man's face and said calmly.

[I worked for a long time yesterday, and when I woke up in the morning, I had a terrible headache, and my coding speed was so slow, I hope to be free soon, and I will add more updates for everyone. 】
