Chapter 188: The Poor Family Gets Rich

"Hostess, we stayed in 2nd class. ”

"Yo, it's not a coincidence that the eldest sister is full, the second-class room is full. ”

"Then, is there a chase shop?" Father Han was also distressed, the biggest thing he had spent in his life was to repair the house and pave the grain field, no more than fifty taels before and after. Now there are ten people in their group, and each of them costs fifty taels, which is enough to build a bright small courtyard in the village.

"Ouch, big brother, our inn is taking the first-class route, and there is no Chase Shop. ”

Luo Qinian and Wei Feng glanced at each other and saw the smiles in each other's eyes.

"Dad, stay for one night, and I'll go to my uncle's house tomorrow. ”

Father Han didn't understand what happened to the uncle who suddenly appeared, but the daughter-in-law was smart, and it was right to listen to her when she went out, so she agreed, and the group settled in the room.

After entering the room, he placed the sleeping Tuan Tuan on the bed, covered the quilt he brought, and carefully checked the doors and windows, before he smiled and said to Han's father and Han's mother: "Dad, mother, we have made money, and we are not afraid to spend ten or two hundred taels." I'll bring enough money to come out, so you can relax and play. ”

Mother Han exhaled loudly when she heard this, and pointed at Luo Qinian who couldn't speak: "One hundred taels can be spent casually, the old family, you can't be extravagant." If you have a lot of money to keep in the future, you will have an emergency, and you can't spend it all. ”

"Mother, what you earned before is used to spend and live a good life. But don't worry, I won't spend it all, and I'll keep enough money for living and emergency money anyway. Besides, we went to Kyoto this time, firstly, to accompany the fourth brother and them on a study tour, and to see the beautiful mountains and rivers by the way, and secondly, to go to Kyoto to open a restaurant to make money. ”

After a while, the meal came up. A small steamed bun with three copper plates, a small plate of peanuts and rice with ten copper plates, a small plate of black fried vegetables with twelve copper plates, and a small plate of beef with sauce and fifty copper plates...... It cost two taels of silver for a meal.

Father Han's hands were trembling: "The poor family is rich, isn't this rich law?"

Everyone forced themselves to laugh and couldn't help but laugh.

Luo Qinian said: "Dad, you see, opening an inn makes more money, let's open one when we go back." Well, it's on the outskirts of Beijing, where there are many rich and noble people, and it's more profitable. When the time comes, our family's money will be yours. ”

Father Han heard the meaning of her words, and glared at her angrily: "Slippery head." After this interruption, I didn't feel sorry for the money, and began to be picky about the food: "It's not delicious, it's not delicious at all." ”

"If it's not delicious, we won't eat it, we bring a lot of snacks,"

Luo Qinian didn't finish speaking, and was interrupted by Father Han's glare: "It's all bought with money, don't eat and waste." You ate it all for me, do you hear?"

Everyone silently picks up vegetables, the old people are thrifty, and they want to learn.

After eating a bad meal of the noble dead, and sleeping at the inn of the noble dead who was uncomfortable at night, Han's father and Han's mother were not in a beautiful mood the next day, and they didn't like anyone with a straight face.

The big grin, like Wei Feng, was cautious, for fear of provoking them to scold.

Luo Qinian poked her waist: "My father and mother haven't slowed down, they haven't spent so much money in their lives, don't mind." ”

"I didn't," Wei Feng was in a complicated mood: "Your family is considered a rich family, your father-in-law and mother-in-law are still so simple, I don't know what about them?"

The weeds on the roadside are messy, the dead branches and shoots, the occasional farmer turns the frozen soil in the field, and the traffic is strange, dotted with three or two thatched huts. The conditions are difficult, and they are much poorer than Qinghe Village.

Luo Qinian couldn't answer, so he sighed quietly.

Entering the city, there is a strong contrast between the prosperity of the city and the poverty and tranquility of the suburbs. The hawkers, the porters, the rows of shops, the dazzling array of goods, the bargaining customers, the sleek and shrewd shopkeepers......

Han's father and Han's mother were not very interested, and refused to go to a restaurant with a good reputation and decoration, so they picked up a clean noodle stall and had a lunch.

"Dad, mother, let's find an inn to put things, go to see the camel peak in the afternoon, swim in the lake at night, today is fifteen, I heard that there is an Oiran competition." ”

"Let's go see the camel hump, just swim in the lake. Oiran is not a serious person and cannot be seen. ”

Han Xian's excited heart cooled suddenly, he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, he was so uncomfortable.

Luo Qinian pouted, she was not afraid of Father Han, "Dad, I heard that the Oiran Contest is very good-looking, there are beautiful women, good-looking singing and dancing, delicious food, and various competitive competitions, which can be lively." Let's take a look, just take a look, it's not fun and not serious, hurry back to the inn to sleep. None of us have seen the talent competition, so be careful about us, let us go and see it for a long time. ”

The noodle eater at the side table snorted and snorted half a bowl of noodles, and shouted in a loud voice: "Brother, the Oiran Contest is not a visit to the Qinglou, we Fengcheng all ages like it." There are also various competitive competitions, riddles, pairs, poems and paintings, and the prizes are abundant. ”

Wei Feng's eyes lit up: "What's there?"

"Tonight is Master Liu's sitting in the village, and the reward for guessing the riddle is one hundred taels of gold, plus the four treasures of the study. ”

Luo Qinian laughed and pushed Han Xian and Luo Yaojie: "It's up to you, whoever wins will save a sum of money." ”

Luo Yaojie blushed and was eager to try. Han Xian was also excited, but he was more nervous, afraid that he wouldn't be able to guess that he would be beaten by his father.

Han's father was still hesitating, afraid that the children would indulge in it after watching the song and dance, and abandon their studies.

"Dad, a hundred taels of gold, enough for us to stay in the inn for several days. ”

"Go!" Father Han was categorical, in order not to let himself return, he immediately ordered to find the inn to put things, and then went straight to the camel peak.

As its name suggests, the camel peak resembles a recumbent camel, and the col between the two peaks resembles a recess between the humps. The peach and plum under the mountain compete for beauty, and the catkins are one after another. Pedestrians call the former, and the latter responds. The woodcutters sing, and the visitors chant.

"Big brother, the firewood you make is not resistant to burning. Han Xian is used to collecting firewood, and at a glance he can see that the dead branches carried by the woodcutter are not burned, and they are the kind that have been burned without leaving carbon.

The woodcutter smiled: "I don't use firewood to burn." ”

"Don't burn your firewood?"

The woodcutter smiled and didn't explain.

An old man rested under the tree, and said with a smile: "Little brother doesn't know, there is a temple on the mountainside of this camel peak, and the monks in the temple give money to invite them to sing on the walkway in order to attract pilgrims. Firewood that doesn't leave carbon is light!"

"Huh? Han Xian's eyes were opened, and even Han's father was surprised.

The woodcutter stared at the old man who was doing well, afraid that Han Xian would ask more and others would hear about it and grab the job with him, so he hurriedly ran away.

"That monk must be a smart man, let's go and learn from the scriptures. Luo Qinian raised his eyebrows, very interested.

"By the way, go and worship the Buddha. "Han's mother was worried about her eldest son who was fighting, and wanted to ask him for a peace charm.

The temple is prominently located on the mountainside, and can be seen by pedestrians at the foot of the mountain looking up. But when I really wanted to go, I found that the mountain road was winding and winding, nine twists and eighteen bends, and it looked close in front of me, but I had to walk for a long time and couldn't walk.
