Chapter 21 Fat is a luxury

Many people don't just come to report a letter, they will always peek at Dai Shuanglin intentionally or unintentionally when they speak, and those who can't hold back their mouths will say bluntly It's a pity, and the implication is self-evident.

Sun had a smile on his face, but he was actually bitter in his heart, thinking about it, he really looked forward to the fact that the draft was true. Instead of letting Sister Lin stay in this bad place, it is better to send it to the palace to fight, Sister Lin has a sweet mouth and is clever, maybe she can mix up and return to her hometown with glory in the future, who can still remember those bad things in previous years.

Hey, it depends on Sister Lin's own creation, thinking that Chen took the initiative to propose a marriage agreement with her back then, Sun couldn't help but hate it secretly, but then he thought about it, it was always her mother's imprudent way to do things, so Sister Lin was said today.

The morale of the Dai family was low, and the Gu family climbed higher step by step.

The firecrackers to celebrate Gu Xiaomin's talent resounded in the alleys of the town, and distant relatives and neighbors all went to congratulate them, and I heard that Pavilion Chief Li also personally came to the scene to help greet the guests.

Only Dai Xianye stood in the crowd watching the excitement and talked sourly, knowing that this year's examiner was so unparticular, no matter what, he was going to take the test, and then Puyang Town would have two shows, a hundred years of luck.

Everyone was disdainful, saying that he Dai Xianye seemed to be able to pass the exam as long as he went, and he didn't want to think about how people who couldn't even pass the county exam could take the government exam.

In the face of the flying fire in June, the officials began to go to the countryside to collect taxes, and this time the grain tax was more than before, and the official document clearly stated that the grain must be paid in full, and not replaced by cloth and silk.

After seeing the announcement posted in the town, Dai Shuanglin secretly caught herself, this matter will continue to develop, it is okay for the Gu family and the Li family to have a lot of land and food, the base is large enough, even if you pay more, it will not affect the survival of your own family, and only the small people are suffering.

Dai Shuanglin understands that it is precisely because it is a major matter of livelihood, when everyone wakes up, it is certain that they will rush to buy food, and the price of food will rise at that time.

And now the Dai family's food is not enough to stuff their teeth, Sun and Dai Shuanghong's hard-earned silver, in addition to giving Dai Xiangen medicine is to buy food, if the price of food rises, the family will wait for hunger.

Knowing that if she told Sun directly, it was estimated that Sun would have to burn paper at night, so Dai Shuanglin ran to Dai Xiangen and asked Dai Xiangen: "Dad, you said that the county government only needs food and no cloth, why is this?" ”

"This ......" Dai Xiangen was asked by Dai Shuanglin for a while, and said casually: "Who can know what the yamen thinks, it was not like this in previous years." ”

Seeing that Dai Xiangen didn't think about it at all, Dai Shuanglin's eyes turned and said mysteriously: "Dad, did you say that you want to fight again?" That's why the imperial court only wants food and not cloth? ”

"No, I just fought a war last year, so I have to let people take a breath after two years, and I have to wear clothes to fight the war...... "You can't rush up bare-chested, right?" Dai Xiangen swallowed these words into his stomach, shook his head and said that he did not agree with Dai Shuanglin's statement, according to his past experience, every time there is a war in the south, it will be a year or two apart, and when there is no war year after year, it is not that he doesn't want to fight, but he can't afford to fight.

Dai Shuanglin was even more anxious when he saw that his father didn't believe it, I heard Gu Xiaomin say before, when he was the prince today, he was the main battle faction, but he never took the initiative to attack after being on the throne for a few years, which is really inconsistent with the legend of the prince's belligerence, and this year is not a good year, the imperial court has increased the intensity of grain collection without warning, if it is not for corrupt officials, it must be that the imperial court has ideas.

This assumption seems to be a bit of a catch, but Dai Shuanglin can't imagine what the lives of these small people of Qi will become once the whole country of Qi goes to war, so the top priority is to stock up on grain, hoard grain and hoard grain again.

"Sister Lin, do you really think you're going to fight?" Dai Shuanglin's solemnity was different from the past, which made Dai Xiangen realize that things seemed to be a bit serious.

In this family, Dai Xiangen is the one who knows Dai Shuanglin best, since he was a few years old, he began to help him find stones, and then let him carve and polish them into various objects, and one day, when he realized that it was easier to sell the things made according to Sister Lin's idea, he suddenly understood that Sister Lin's actions were not the greedy play or troublemaking that Sun said.

Dai Shuanglin nodded "um", his expression was condensed and serious: "Even if you don't fight, there is not enough food at home, you have to buy it early and buy it late, I know that it will be cheaper to buy millet after autumn, but if the price rises at that time, what can we do in this situation?" ”

"Hey" Dai Xiangen sighed and fell into deep thought, if you want to buy food, you have to have silver, where to raise money?

If you really told Sister Lin that the price of grain will rise after the autumn, then the Dai family will be able to take the opportunity to buy grain in advance, and whether it is to eat it yourself or exchange it for cheaper millet at that time, it will be a way to live.

"The key is that there is no silver" No matter how much Dai Xiangen didn't believe that there would be a war before, but now he believes it.

Dai Shuanglin was also worried, she didn't think about making a fortune and becoming well-off before, for a while she could toss hard, until after failing again and again, she finally gave up on being her aborigine.

At first, Dai Shuanglin wanted to sell pig intestines!

Hehe, even if there is only one pig killer in the entire Puyang Town, he usually doesn't dare to kill the pig every day, for fear that he won't be able to sell it and lose money, so he can only wait for the big set once every five days to kill it, and even if it can't be sold out, there won't be much left, and occasionally there are important guests at home, and they can also be sold piecemeal.

Dai Shuanglin has watched her father drink wine with the pig's intestine since she was a child, Sun's cooking is not delicious, but it is not bad, even Dai Shuanglin sometimes can't help but steal a piece and stuff it in her mouth, well, I have to say: Fat is a luxury.

Later, just sell rag dolls! What Disney and Pleasant Goat are not just for her to use?

Encouraged Dai Shuanghong to make all kinds of puppets, and the uncle of the Tuosun family took it to the county seat to sell, and the needlework shop on consignment only sold one, and the next day I saw a child on the street, no matter how rough the cloth used by the family was, how ugly the appearance was, but at this time, the child could play for a long time with a piece of mud, not to mention a piece of cloth that could be used to make clothes, that was called a satisfied, after all, the cloth head is also a cloth, staining the soles of shoes, mending clothes, and the role is great.

As for selling recipes or something, people in county restaurants don't pay attention to taste, as long as there is meat, they are their mothers, and the big willow meat buns are the hottest, why?

Because there is fat and white flour, the small people can eat one for a year, and the owner of the restaurant said, "Stuff the fat meat into it, can grandpa afford to pay that thing?" Dai Shuanglin, who came back with a word, took the recipe and went home, disheartened and ready to take the firewood burning, but was snatched away by Gu Xiaomin, saying that he had to keep it, and when the two of them had a small family in the future, she had to do everything written on the paper.

O great wish, eat everything!!

Looking at Gu Xiaomin's gluttony looking at the recipe, as if he wanted to marry her just for that bit of food, the sullen Dai Shuanglin threw a firewood stick over, and the light-colored clothes on Gu Xiaomin's body turned black immediately. The two of them hid in the south room of Dai's house with adults on their backs, rubbing and washing, but they couldn't wash the clothes, and when Gu Xiaomin went home that night, he was beaten by Chen.

What happened to the small landlord's house? The clothes of the small landlord's house were not chosen!

Gu Xiaomin, who limped to Dai's house the next day, hissed and confessed, "I told my mother that I got it myself, don't be stupid enough to run and throw yourself into the net." ”

Thinking of this, Dai Shuanglin was discouraged.

To sum up, this is a place that does not focus on appetite but on hunger, and does not focus on entertainment but only on living.

In the past, I could still borrow Gu Xiaomin to see the outside world, and think about which day I went to a big place, everything would still be useful, but after the Gu and Dai families were deadlocked, Dai Shuanglin's world was so small that there was only the courtyard of the Dai family, and making money seemed to be an unattainable dream.

When Dai Shuanglin and her father were worried about where to get the money, Sun walked in with a pale face, and saw the father and daughter whispering in the house, Sun opened his mouth for a long time and was stunned whether he didn't say all the words, or Dai Shuanghong, who walked in with a basket, looked at Dai Shuanglin and choked up: "On the way back from the Gu family's carriage, I met a robber, and Gu Xiaomin's leg was broken."
