Chapter 877
"Auntie, don't bring your children to such a dangerous place in the future, especially now when it's time for flooding. Huzi, go home with your mother!" Xiao'er also said at this time.
"Mother, let's go home, I want to give it to Sister Sugar!" Huzi raised the bag of candy in his hand.
"Huzi, you can't ask for these candies!" They saved their children's lives, and they didn't have anything to repay them, so how could they take the things of their life-saving benefactors?
Huzi reluctantly glanced at the bag in his hand, hesitating whether to return it to Xiao'er, in the end it was still a child, and candy was irresistible to them.
"It's okay, it's a shock for the child! Huzi go home and share some candy for your sister to eat!"
"Why don't you come to my house for a light meal?" Someone else saved her son's life and gave such a precious candy to her son, she felt that she had to invite someone to eat no matter what.
It's just that she doesn't have much silver in the restaurant, so she invites them to eat at home, and she is worried that her home is too dilapidated and abrupt to the nobles.
Not to mention the big ship, even the clothes they wear are extravagant.
Huzi remembered that his mother had said that if he took other people's things, he should indeed invite them to his home for dinner, and he would also invite them to eat the lychees grown by his father: "Sister, brother, you should come to our house for dinner! I will invite you to eat lychees, my father planted them, and they are very delicious! I tell you, my father is the best at growing fruits, and the fruits he grows are delicious." ”
Xiao'er originally wanted to refuse, not wanting to disturb them, but after hearing Huzi say that his father was the best at growing fruits, she changed her mind again.
When she came back to Zhenyang County this time, she wanted to find someone to grow unicorn fruit.
It is naturally better to find someone who knows how to grow fruit than someone who can't grow it.
And seeing that Huzi has something to eat, he can also remember to leave it for his father and sister to eat, and the character of his parents who want to come to the house is also good.
Xiao'er wanted to go to Huzi's house to see if Huzi's father could really grow fruits, so she nodded: "Then I'm bothered, it just so happens that I'm hungry." ”
Jing Rui just wanted to refuse, but he didn't expect Xiao'er to respond, and he glanced at Xiao'er in surprise.
Shangguan Xuanyi knew that Xiao'er was looking for someone to grow the unicorn fruit, so he was not surprised that Xiao'er would come down.
"What?" the woman didn't react for a moment, this was a promise to go to her house for dinner?
Huzi pulled his mother's sleeve: "Mother, my sister said that she was hungry, let's go home and cook quickly!"
"Oh, okay, okay, I'll go back to cooking, a few of you here, please. The woman came to her senses and quickly stretched out her hand and made a gesture of please.
The first time I went to someone else's house for dinner, I couldn't go empty-handed, Xiao'er gave Yangmei a look.
Yang Mei understood, and hurriedly ran back to the cabin to get the gift.
Huzi's house is still a little far from the dock, Huziniang took everyone to the market, she turned back to Xiao'er and said, "Young lady, the house is a little far from the county, let's take the carriage back!"
She originally wanted to say that she was riding an ox cart, but she just wanted to come to a noble person like them, I'm afraid she had never been on an ox cart!
Fortunately, this year's fruit grew well, and their family sold a little more silver than in previous years, and there was still money to invite the life-saving benefactor to ride in the carriage.
"Zhao Yong, you go and rent two carriages. Auntie, it just so happens that we also need horse-drawn carriages in the county these days, so I asked my people to rent two carriages, so you don't need to hire another carriage. Xiao'er knew that a cow cart would cost one or two pennies per person, but a horse-drawn carriage would cost a hundred pennies for a car.
If Hu Ziniang is allowed to take out the silver for the carriage, this hundred wen may be a month or two expenses for their family.
"That's fine. "Being able to save a hundred wen is also a relief for Hu Ziniang.
Her family only has an orchard and no fields, and the family is counting on the fruit harvest in the summer orchard for food and clothing throughout the year.
If the year is not good, and the fruit blooms during the rainy season, the fruit harvest will be bad, and their life will be very difficult that year, so she is very frugal in the year of the good harvest, and she will save some money in case the next year's harvest is not good, and eating will be a problem.
Zhao Yong soon went to the carriage shop and rented two carriages and came back, six hundred wen a day.
Yang Liu, Yang Mei and Zhao Yong, Huzi and Huzi and her mother took a carriage.
Xiao'er, Shangguan Xuanyi and Jing Rui sat in a carriage.
After the group got into the carriage, they headed for Rongshutou Village.
On the carriage, Jing Rui asked about Linger Island, and Xiao'er explained to him, including how Linger Island came to be, and what happened after taking over Lianger Island.
"The second prince of Nangong is simply shameless! I don't know if he has the plague!"
Xiao'er shook her head: "The scourge has been left for thousands of years, and he escaped by luck!"
Nangong Guo's spy flying pigeon passed the book, and the second prince of Nangong was still alive and kicking, and there was nothing to do.
She deliberately sprayed his face with saliva, and even used internal force to sneeze, and there was probably no one in this world except herself!
"Then there will be radiation on Linger Island in three years now, so you can't send many soldiers to guard it!"
"Not a lot, only fifty soldiers, but ready to send twenty cannons over. ”
Fifty people, give them fifty pills every year, three years is one hundred and fifty pills, and a little more people, her pills can't hurt!
"This island is like a hot potato. Jing Rui couldn't help but comment.
"It's good to survive these three years, there is no winter there, you can grow three crops of rice a year, and it's good to grow fruits there, after three years, Linger Island is a treasure island, although it's a little troublesome now, but it's worth it." Xiao'er is still very much looking forward to Linger Island in three years.
The two of them talked about the development of Linger Island in three years, and then the carriage turned off the official road.
Rongshutou Village is named after the fact that there are three century-old banyan trees in the village.
The first time Huzi rode in the carriage, he was a little excited, and he couldn't help but look around.
When they arrived at the head of the village, he opened the curtain and said to Yang Liu: "Sister Yang Liu, Sister Yang Mei, you see, there are three very big banyan trees in our village, and the oldest grandfather in the village said that when he was as big as me, those three trees were so big! They have grown for hundreds of years! They have been bless the people of our village." ”
"It's really big!" Yang Liu glanced out, it was indeed very large, but she had seen a larger banyan tree than this one, so she didn't think it was unusual.
Soon, he came to the door of Huzi's house.
"It's here!" said Huzi's mother.
The carriage stopped in front of a dilapidated yard.
Several people got out of the carriage one after another.
Then the coachman drove the carriage to find an open place to stop and wait.
