Chapter 54: Departure

Since there were still many things to deal with at home, after collecting the money, Xu Xiangwan and the others prepared to return to the village. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Qianyu originally wanted to send them home in a carriage, but Xu Xiangwan politely refused, not for politeness, but because she didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble and make a big splash, and what they needed most now was to be low-key.

For today's money from selling medicine, Xu Xiangwan only needed twenty-seven taels of silver, and the rest was all replaced by copper plates for them by Shopkeeper Shen.

The three of them went to the street and bought five catties of flour and two catties of pork belly for 30 yuan, and then went back to Xujia Village directly.

Back in Xujia Village, it was almost noon.

Zhang and Xu Qiuyi had already set up the dishes and chopsticks, and waited for the three of them to come back for dinner.

The three brothers and sisters washed their hands and faces, and Zhang and Xu Qiuyi had already helped the three of them to prepare the meal, and they could eat it as soon as it was served.

In the past, when I went to the room, I adhered to the principle of eating and not sleeping, and the family had a good atmosphere after the family was separated.

While the family was eating, Xu Xiangwan and Goro told everyone about selling medicine this morning.

After Xu Qiuyi heard that she had sold more than 20 taels of silver, she had always been gentle and almost knocked down her job.

However, Zhang's performance made Xu Xiangwan very strange.

It stands to reason that more than 20 taels of silver is definitely a rather amazing wealth in the eyes of the Zhuang family, how can ordinary peasant women be pleasantly surprised when they hear about it, and although the Zhang family is happy, they are indifferent, it seems that this is not more than 20 taels of silver, but only more than 20 copper plates.

However, now Xu Xiangwan is more concerned about how to get the household post, and then quietly left Xujia Village, so he did not delve into Zhang's abnormal performance.

Although Zhang was a little reluctant to leave Xujia Village, she was naturally very supportive of her two daughters.

After more than a month of recuperation, Zhang's health has been mostly better, and the scope of activities is naturally no longer limited to the east wing of the Xu family, so he is fully aware of the farce that happened before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, after Zhang learned what Shangfang had done, he just cried silently for a long time, but he did not make any radical moves, and he did not seek death and life as he imagined.

Maybe it's because Xu Xiangwan and Xu Qiuyi are about to bring huge profits to the upper room, and the time spent in the upper room has stopped surprisingly. The Zheng family and the Liang family even occasionally gave a smile when they saw Xu Xiangwan and others, and even Xu Furong and Cui Shi did not put on a face in the second room.

After dinner, Xiao Jiu followed Wulang to the Xu family's old house to find Lizheng.

Zhang's mother and daughter stayed at home to pack up their clothes, prepare dry food, and pack everything they could take away.

In the evening, Gorou and Kojiu finally returned home with happy faces.

"Brother, you're finally back." Xu Xiangwan happily greeted him, holding Xiao Jiu with one hand and holding Gorou's arm affectionately with the other hand and returning home.

Although Gorou grew up accepting the dogma of "men and women are not intimate", he is not rigid, although he is not used to the closeness of women, after seeing his sister's cute appearance, his eyes can't help but soften, just patted Xu Xiangwan's hand, and did not dodge.

"Gorou, how are things going?" When Zhang saw Gorou come back, his eyes lit up, and he looked at him expectantly with Xu Qiuyi.

Seeing that everyone in the family was looking at him expectantly, Gorou nodded and carefully took out a yellowed piece of rice paper from his arms.

"Look." Gorou carefully spreads the rice paper on the table.

By the faint light of the sky, the eyes of a family of five were fixed on the rice paper.

"Great, with Grandpa Lizheng's letter, it shouldn't be a problem for us to move out of the house. Brother, let's go directly to the county seat early tomorrow morning. Xu Xiangwan said.

Gorou smiled slightly: "Exactly." Grandpa Li Zheng has asked the eldest brother to send us to the county seat in an ox cart early tomorrow morning, and I have been unable to push it off for a long time. ”

Zhang said: "Li is a good person." ”

For Zhang's words, everyone nodded in agreement.

Li Zheng is upright and helpful, over the years, who in Xujia Village has not praised him?

Maybe Rizheng had his own selfish motives in letting them go, but it can't be denied that he really wanted to help them.

In order to be able to leave smoothly tomorrow, the family got together again and cleaned up the things in the house over and over again, including the pots and pans.

That night, Xu Xiangwan and Xu Qiuyi sisters talked for most of the night, and they didn't fall asleep until the rooster crowed.

In the east wing, it was not only the two sisters Xu Xiangwan who were sleepless, but Zhang and Wulang were also almost sleepless, tossing and turning in bed and thinking about their own thoughts.

Only the little nine people didn't have any troubles, and they snored in the blink of an eye while lying on the bed.

At the same time, there was an even knocking sound on the back wall of the east wing, and Xu Xiangwan was so frightened that he woke up from his dream in an instant, and immediately reacted that it was probably the eldest brother of the Li Zheng family who came over.

As soon as she got up, Xu Qiuyi also woke up.

Before Xu Xiangwan could get dressed, the door of the east wing opened.

"Gorou, you're up too?" Zhang groped his way out of the room in the dark, but just in time to see Gorou open the door of the east wing, he put a thin cotton coat in his hand on Gorou.

The autumn night was cold, and Zhang couldn't help but sneeze.

"Mother, you are not in good health, you can wear this dress by yourself. I have a strong body, I wear a lot, and I am not cold. Gorou hurriedly stuffed the clothes into Zhang's hand and quietly opened the door of the Xu family.

Sure enough, there was an ox cart parked by the door, and a tall young man was sitting in the car.

"Big brother, are you here so early?" Gorou hurriedly whispered hello to the young man.

The young man also whispered at Gorou: "Hurry up and move things, let's rush to the county seat as soon as possible." After a while, there will be more people. ”

The Erfang family originally planned to quietly leave Xujia Village while it was dark, so they naturally quickly moved the things packed at home to the ox cart.

When the family was separated, the second room didn't get anything, and because they planned to leave Xujia Village these days, they didn't buy any belongings, so the ox cart was empty after putting the baggage, and the family of five sat down after a little squeezing.

To Ganquan County is only just right, the sky has just dawned, a touch of red glow hangs in the sky, extraordinarily enchanting.

Compared with Guojia Town, Ganquan County is much more lively, although the genius is slightly bright, there are already people carrying burdens and carrying baskets to start selling.

The street food stalls selling breakfast have already opened, and all kinds of fragrances reach the tip of the nose, making people salivate.

The family came out in a hurry, although they prepared dry food, but because they were in a hurry, they didn't have time to eat, and when they smelled the fragrance, their stomachs were fluttering.

Gorou beckoned everyone to a snack stall, ordered six small soup dumplings, six large steamed buns, six bowls of porridge, six salted duck eggs, asked for three plates of pickles, and had a full meal.

Datou brought his own dry food, but he didn't eat it, but Zhang's sentence "If you don't eat it, you look down on your aunt", so she ate it happily.

Xu Datou was originally an upright and enthusiastic man, and it was not easy to see the orphans and widows of Zhang's and others, so after breakfast, he volunteered to accompany Zhang's and others to the yamen to find the officials to handle the registration of the change of household posts and create a new household post.

Since it was impossible to find the house overnight, Gorou and the others found the cheapest rice market inn in the rice market street in the south of the city and lived in it first.

Zhang's originally wanted to give the pork and flour he bought yesterday to Xu Datou, but Xu Datou refused this time, and after helping to move the sundries on the ox cart into the inn, he drove the ox cart back to Xujia Village.
