Farmhouse smoke rises

Chapter 43

Looking at the setting sun in the west, and then at the closed city gate, Su Yu could only sigh softly and walk towards the village.

At this time, in a certain tea house in the distance, the man in soldier's uniform had changed into a blue Confucian shirt just now, but his eyebrows and eyes were still stern.He lowered his head and listened to the ditty, and said to the man in white clothes with no beard next to him, "I really didn't know that you like to meddle in other people's business so much. Are you afraid that I won't be able to get out of that restaurant without your help?"

The man in white didn't change much in his expression, and said calmly, "I'm just seeing her off, that child is quite interesting." Then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and someone's face in his mind It is also becoming clearer.

……

When Su Yu arrived home, the sun was completely submerged in the West Mountain.Everything in the house remains the same as when she left.

She saw a dark shadow shaking outside the door of her house from a long distance away. Although the sky was not very good, she could still tell from her walking that it was Wang Sang walking around the door.

When Su Yu came to the door and was about to speak to Wang Sang, Wang Sang who heard the noise had already rushed over. When he saw Su Yu, his expression was obviously relieved.

"Dayu, how did you come back?" Wang Sang pulled Su Yu and walked towards the house, speaking anxiously.

"I, I rushed back from the town after finishing my work, what's the matter, mother?" Su Yu was a little puzzled.

"I heard that something big happened in this town. I don't know which high-ranking official was killed in full view. The entire Sioux City was under martial law. I thought you wouldn't be able to come back today. I'll let your father go on the road Welcome, didn't you see?"

Su Yu thought that the news spread really fast, but it happened only at noon, and it spread so far in the afternoon.Maybe some people were detained in the town, causing Wang Sang to worry about her.

"I think it's getting late, so I took a shortcut and came back. Dad may have picked me up on the main road. I didn't see it." Su Yu softly comforted Wang Sang, signaling that she is fine now, causing the whole family to be so worried , she is not feeling well.

"Is the shortcut you mentioned coming from the mountains? There are always wild animals coming and going on that road at night, so I would rather take a long detour than go there. Okay, just come back, let's go in quickly Room." Wang Sang also nodded, and she planned to ask about the specific situation later.

After entering the room, Su Yin realized that the table had not been cleared. It seemed that the whole family was waiting for her to eat.

"Mother, if I come back late in the future, don't wait for me, just eat first. The road is too far, and it will take me a long time to walk back from there." Su Yu said to several people with distress.

Although Su Fang and Su Bai didn't know what happened, they were very worried about Su Yu. This time, seeing that Su Yu came back safely, they were naturally very happy. Served meals for the whole family.

Su Bai was so hungry that he couldn't wait for Su Gu'an to come back, so he started eating right away.

After a while, heavy footsteps came from outside the house, and it sounded that Su Guan had returned, and before he arrived, the voice came first: "Sang'er, this Su Yu didn't come back, I think it's probably because he was detained." It's off, I'll go to town tomorrow to have a look..."

While talking, he entered the room and saw that Su Yu was sitting on the kang, and he couldn't believe his eyes for a moment.

When he came back from the road, he thought a lot, no matter what, he had to bring his daughter back from the town.At the same time, he also regretted that he had gritted his teeth and refused to let Su Yu go to the town. When he returned, he had to talk to Wang Sang about why such a young child was going to the town.

"Dayu? You're back!" Su Gu'an couldn't hide the joy in his heart as he walked to the front and asked.

"Hey..." Su Yu handed the rice bowl to Su Gu'an to indicate that it's time to start the meal, "Father, you don't have to worry if I don't come back tonight. I'm already this old, and it's not me who caused trouble. What to do with me."

Although Su Yu said so, it was inevitable that there was some meaning in it to persuade him to relax.If she was really detained, something might happen in that unfamiliar place. Besides, she was so close to the crime scene at that time, it was hard to guarantee that she would not be regarded as a scapegoat.

In fact, when she knew that the situation was not good, she had the idea of ​​leaving the town.But she is an ordinary person, if the person who summoned the gate to close the city was a horse, she would have no chance to go out at all.So she pinned her hopes on the man in white.

She definitely took a gamble, betting that if the man saw that she had no intention of going out, he would want to send herself out even more.Goodness bet, she was right.But later, when the man said that he was busy with his own business, she really didn't expect it.

No one can foresee what will happen in the future, and she is not a reborn heroine, so she doesn't know when, who will appear and what will happen.But Su Yu still prayed from the bottom of her heart that she would repay the favor by seeing the man in white again in the future.

"I knew Dayu was so smart that nothing would happen. Come on, let's eat! It will be cold in a while." Su Gu'an took the job bowl and said with a smile on his face.

Wang Sang tentatively asked beside him: "Then how did you do what I asked you to do, Dayu?"

Su Yu rolled his eyes, then raised his head, and said confidently: "I have already agreed with the master blacksmith, but he is busy today and couldn't make it for me right away, so he told me to have time next time. Let's get it again." Su Yu felt that the plow stick could not be made well in a day or two, and the tweezers should be easy to make, so she just let her do it next time.

Hearing this, Wang Sang nodded without doubting anything. After all, Su Yu's return was the happiest thing for them, and other things were not that important.

"Mother, have you finished pulling the rice today?" Su Yu didn't come back for a day, and he didn't know how the work at home was doing.The job of pulling the rice is not Su Yu's job, because the rice is stacked high on the cart and pulled home. If you don't have a lot of strength, it won't be stacked high at all. It is estimated that after a few years, she will be able to lift the rice. I can help the family pull rice.

"No, it will probably take two days. After that, your father and I will go to tie up the corn stalks, and then we will sell the grain. This year, I haven't decided whether to grind the rice before selling it, or just bring the rice husks. Let's sell it together."

Su Fang tilted her head and thought about it. If she remembered correctly, it was finished last year before being sold. "Why do you have to think about how to sell the grain? No matter how you look at it, the price will be higher after grinding it."

Su Gu'an was driving on the other side, and the room was a little dark, so he went down to the ground and took the oil lamp to the table, "Although the price is relatively high after being polished, it takes a lot of effort, and it will lose a lot of weight." , If the profit is not big enough, we won’t sell it this year. I think the government seems to be interested in hoarding grain recently, and it might be able to sell at a higher price this year.”

Su Bai couldn't get in the way, so he just responded blindly: "That's right."

Wang Sang also said: "What's the use of selling more money? Most of the money will be begged by that Jin Tuihua. I think we can sell it directly this year. Anyway, we won't get much money ourselves."

Su Bai continued to respond: "That's right."

Su Gu'an spoke slowly, "The rich landlord collects the rent directly. I guess he can leave some for our family when he collects the rent. Then he considers what to do with the rest of the grain."

Although Su Yu didn't know how far this golden landlord had squeezed these peasants, he still didn't want to let his family suffer: "It doesn't matter mother, I'll let him spit out as much as he eats. Just do as you wish.”

Su Bai nodded: "That's right."

"...What are you, hurry up and eat your food." Su Yu rolled his eyes at him.
