Chapter 82: Departure

Chapter Title: Chapter 82 Begins

Chapter 82 Begins

The carriage is very good, and it takes half an hour to arrive at Qingshui Town. The Huichun Hall convoy was loaded early in the morning, and the people who set off with the car had already eaten at this time, packed up their things and prepared to leave.

Qiu Chen got down from the carriage and didn't see the women and children seeing off, and the faces of those who were about to leave were calm and indifferent, talking and laughing freely, obviously used to going out often. In addition, next to some ordinary dressed people, there were more than a dozen men with strong bodies and fierce temperaments, Qiu Chen guessed after a little thought that these people should be guards such as dart masters hired by the Huichun Hall team. With these people following, ordinary small bandits could not pose a threat, and Qiu Chen was a little more relieved.

As soon as she got out of the car, the two young men saw it sharply and hurriedly ran over to say hello. On the other side, Shopkeeper Chen also rushed over, and when he saw Chengzi also jumping down from the carriage behind, his eyes couldn't help flashing.

Qiu Chen saw the shopkeeper Chen, and after greeting him, he said: "Chengzi is very attentive, don't look at it in a few days, he is already very proficient." Let him follow this time, or be a master! ”

Hearing Qiu Chen's praise, Shopkeeper Chen showed a relieved and grateful smile, raised his hand and patted Chengzi's still thin shoulder, and admonished: "Mrs. Lin uses you so much, but others can't ask for blessings, it's you who created it." You have to be careful, don't bear the Lin lady's cultivation for you! ”

Chengzi hurriedly and respectfully agreed.

"It's this kid who cares about it!" Qiu Chen smiled and changed the topic, "Is Shopkeeper Chen going to lead the team personally?" ”

"If you go down, you can guard this shop, and you can't go out." Shopkeeper Chen shook his head with a smile, raised his eyes again, determined the location, and then said to Qiu Chen, "This time I will lead the team Liao Hai's shopkeeper, I will lead you over to get to know you!" ”

Qiu Chen naturally agreed, and took Yang Shumeng and Lin Xu to follow Shopkeeper Chen through the crowd and came to the three or two people. Qiu Chen saw a middle-aged man in the middle of the crowd at a glance. This person is in his forties, wearing a gray cocoon silk trim, medium height, medium body shape, and even his appearance is extremely ordinary. In particular, the pair of calm and waveless eyes that seem to read people's feelings, which makes people feel a sense of unfathomable essence at a glance.

"The big shopkeeper, this is the ...... of the Lin family of Liu Jiaao" The shopkeeper Chen has already introduced to Liao Hai.

Qiu Chen pushed Lin Xu beside him, but Lin Xu didn't disappoint her, although she was still a little restrained and embarrassed, she took it very well, and said humbly and politely: "Boy Lin Xu, I've seen Liao Da's shopkeeper." ”

Yang Shumeng is relatively more sophisticated, and he hugged his fist at the shopkeeper Liao and said: "It's a blessing to see the name of the shopkeeper for a long time. Xia Yang Shumeng is Lin Xu's second brother in law, and this time my two brothers went with me, and they had to rely on Liao Da's shopkeeper to take care of them along the way. ”

Liao Hai also clenched his fists in return, and didn't dare to say: "Lin and Liao's two families are now cooperating sincerely, and they are no different from their own family, Brother Yang and Little Brother Lin are along the way, but if you need to, just open your mouth, don't go outside!" ”

Qiu Chen and Lin Xu may not know that this Liao Hai shopkeeper, Yang Shuyong and Yang Shumeng brothers have been driving and transporting goods for many years, but they have not heard of Liao Hai's name, this person was originally a small apprentice of the Liao family in Anyang Mansion, and he was not weak enough to be crowned, so he followed the Liao family caravan to purchase medicinal materials in various places, delicate and meticulous, sleek and sophisticated, and took over most of the Liao family's trade routes in a few years, and opened up the Northeast trade routes, and purchased a large number of Northeast specialty medicinal materials for the Liao family, and the Liao family was able to become a leader in the pharmaceutical industry in Anyang Prefecture. It can be said that a small half of them are the achievements of this Liao Hai treasurer. Therefore, this Liao Da shopkeeper Anyang Mansion is basically a legend, and many people may not know about the three sons of the Liao family, but this Liao Hai Liao Da Shopkeeper Anyang Mansion walks outside the various lines, but everyone knows it.

Seeing that Liao Hai was so kind and kind, Yang Shumeng and Lin Xu were both happy in their hearts, and Qiu Chen was also secretly relieved.

Liao Hai, Yang Shumeng, and Lin Xu exchanged pleasantries, and glanced at the young woman in the moon shirt and green dress next to him without a trace, and secretly wondered in his heart, thinking that this was the one who made the third prince shine. It is not easy to have such a skill at a young age, and it is rare for Liao Hai to praise this unassuming and unflinching demeanor.

Just as he was greeting, Liao Wenqing walked over in a royal blue brocade shirt accompanied by Xu Changwen in a green coat, and when he saw Qiu Chen and a few people, he immediately stepped forward with a smile and bowed his hand to greet: "Lin Niangzi is early!" ”

Lin Xu immediately stepped forward to greet Xu Changwen, and Xu Changwen greeted Yang Shumeng and Qiu Chen.

Liao Wenqing smiled and watched a few people finish the salute, and then said to Liao Hai with a smile: "Uncle Hai, it seems that you have already met." This is Lin Niangzi, who made 'Poria Cocos Ointment' and 'Sanqi Continuation of Life', these two are Lin Niangzi's brother and uncle. ”

Liao Hai nodded with a smile, and Liao Wenqing said again: "Lin Niangzi, rest assured, this time Uncle Hai personally led the team, and invited Li Zhenbei, the big boss of the North Dart Bureau of Anyang Haozhen, and twenty heroes to escort him. ”

The robbers and bandits can be prevented, Qiu Chen is already very relieved, as for the near frontier, it is very likely to encounter a military rebellion, it is not at all comparable to ordinary caravans, and he can only pray that luck will not be so bad.

Then, Liao Hai and Liao Wenqing took Yang Shumeng and Lin Xu to get to know Li Zhenbei and several small stewards in the caravan, while Qiu Chen and Xu Changwen, who also had nothing to do, stayed in place.

Before, she always easily disappeared from people, easily did not see him, and even if she did, she avoided it from afar, as if she had escaped. He also made himself evasive, reminding himself all the time that he had to think about her and not damage her reputation, but because he couldn't help but want to take a more look and pay more attention, he always seemed a little pretentious. Since recovering from a serious illness, she actually came to the door generously with her child, looking at his eyes, appreciating and having some kindness, but it was obviously like looking at a stranger. At that time, he thought he was wrong, but after a few more contacts, he realized that he was not wrong. Not only did she see that he no longer looked evasive, but she also saw that everyone else was also generous and calm, no more cowardice, no shyness, no evasion, and lowered her head and lowered her eyes......

Qiu Chen seemed to be aware of it, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that not far from him, Xu Changwen was looking at himself with slightly misty eyes, his eyes clearly saw that it was her, but it seemed that he was looking at another person through her!

Another person?

Qiu Chen's heart jumped inexplicably, he quickly stabilized himself, lowered his head and smiled at Ah Man, who was dozing in his arms: "Man'er, aren't you thinking about Mr. Xu?" I'm going to send Mr. away in a while, why don't you hurry up and talk to Mr.? ”

After a five, the little girl was drowsy and dazed after a bumpy road, listening to her mother talk about Mr. Xu, the little girl couldn't care about the warm embrace of her mother, rubbed her eyes, opened her eyes and turned her head to find Xu Changwen, and immediately opened a bright smile and stretched out her hand towards Mr. Xu: "Sir! ”

When Xu Changwen Qiu Chen and Man'er were talking, they woke up, realized their gaffes, and turned their eyes away in slight shame, but at the same time, they were mostly lost.

That's it, she treats him with good manners, frank and generous, and even respectful, but it's like she's never known him......

Hearing Man'er's call, Xu Changwen was in a much better mood, turned his head with a faint smile, and stretched out his hand to take Man'er over and hug him.

Qiu Chen had seen it from just now, and there was an old servant standing not far from there, who he saw when he went to the county seat to see Xu Changwen that day. Seeing that the old servant was waiting for two boxes and a roll of luggage, it was not much more than the luggage she prepared for her second brother and Lin Xu, and she couldn't help but feel a little clear. This Mr. Xu's family may have some small property, but he can't talk about how rich.

Glancing at the luggage, Qiu Chen smiled and said, "Sir, the old man is guarding Mr.'s luggage, right?" Take advantage of this time to load your luggage into the car! ”

Xu Changwen nodded, inevitably a little confused, out of shape! But looking at the worry but hiding it in his eyes, only smiling at Qiu Chen, he couldn't help but sigh a little!

At the beginning, he went to Liujiaao for the sake of the woman, and for two years, he stayed not far away, and did not expect to enter her life or even life, but he also hoped that one day, she could feel his care. It's a pity that she lived in a simple house before, rarely saw people, and then encountered bad news, but he just left, when she needed help, he did nothing, and it was worse than ordinary neighbors...... zaijian, but she seems to be a different person, she is delicate and gone, and her eyebrows are sparse, atmospheric, and dignified, which makes her show a sense of confidence and tenacity all over her body, making her more beautiful and eye-catching, but there is no longer a trace of gaze on him.

That's it, that's it, his current identity, an insignificant teaching gentleman, how can he care for and maintain it!

If you want to help her, let yourself have that ability!

Although Huairong and his entourage are in crisis, it is also a shortcut to prosperity. As long as the political achievements are outstanding and there is no worry about not being able to receive the attention of the emperor, at that time, there will be a day when ambitions will be displayed. At that time, he will be able to protect her for the rest of her life!

Qiu Chen secretly slandered in his heart, this ancient scholar was gentle and elegant, and his manners were polite...... But there is one disadvantage, that is, it is too sad and sad, and it is very sour!

She didn't care what Mr. Xu's expression was, seeing him nodding, she immediately called Junwen Junshu Chengzi and a few people, moved the car to this side, carried Mr. Xu's two boxes and the salute scroll, and loaded them into the back of the wine cart.

On this trip, Qiu Chen let ten jars of twenty catties of alcohol, and ten jars of two catties of about fifty degrees of distilled liquor. In order to avoid confusion and misdrinking, Qiu Chen added comfrey oil to the alcohol, so the Lin family's alcohol was not too strong purple red, and the ten jars of alcohol were installed at the bottom of the carriage behind them, and the wooden planks were added to them, so that the space was narrower, but it could also be occupied. Ten small jars of steamed wine were put in the trunk of the car in front of them, which were prepared to be used in the barracks to deal with Hong Zhanpeng and others. In addition, there are a few wine gourds, about ten catties, which are considered to be used on the road.

Here was the luggage of Mr. Xu's master and servant, and over there, Liao Wenqing and Liao Hai led a few members of the Lin family to meet with the stewards of the Huichun Hall and the dart masters of the dart bureau.

Qiu Chen watched Yang Shumeng take Lin Xu from afar, greeting those people one by one, looking at Lin Xu a little embarrassed, slightly red-faced, and secretly thought in his heart, I hope that after coming back this time, after Lin Xu opened his eyes, he could lose this little family spirit and be generous and cheerful.

In the blink of an eye, seeing Shopkeeper Chen beckoning two workers to carry a table and a big box to come over, Qiu Chen greeted with a smile: "Shopkeeper Chen, I wonder if this caravan also has a send-off wine?" ”

Shopkeeper Chen smiled and didn't speak, but when he turned back, Liao Wenqing heard Qiu Chen's inquiry, and said with a smile: "That's natural." Although it is a caravan, it is no different from the soldiers! ”

Qiu Chen smiled: "Then I don't know if I want to give you a face, and use my Lin family wine to give you a strong line?" ”

Liao Wenqing raised his eyebrows in slight surprise: "Lin Niangzi wouldn't want to use that wound cleaning medicine bar?" ”

Qiu Chen's smile deepened, and he said with a slight sly: "Today's Zhuangxing wine naturally can't use that medicinal wine, if the young owner wants to taste it, I will naturally help the young owner taste the long-cherished wish!" ”

The face in front of him was clear and beautiful, but for some reason, Liao Wenqing suddenly remembered that Tang Wenyong, who was so angry with her that day, that he felt that this smile was so moving, but also faintly made him a little afraid, smiled, and said: "There are still some miscellaneous things in Fucheng, so I sent the caravan to set off, and I have to go back to Fucheng next...... However, if it is smooth, you may be able to return in a few days, and you will definitely go to Liujiaao to ask Lin Niangzi for a glass of wine! ”

As he spoke, everything over there was ready to stop, and the Liao family, the dart bureau and the Lin family gathered to bid farewell to the people who saw them off.

Junwen and Junshu had already been ordered, and they carried ten jars and two catties of distilled liquor from the car not far away, and the shopkeeper Chen brought **myrrh and two young men to move a stack of bowls over, Qiu Chen caught a glimpse of the young man holding a stack of black pottery bowls, his eyes shrank, and he hurriedly pulled Liao Wenqing and reminded in a low voice: "Remind you to pour wine, don't pour too much...... The wine is strong, and after such a big bowl, I'm afraid that many people won't be able to set off! ”

Liao Wenqing nodded quietly, accepted the usual free and uninhibited, stepped forward with a solemn expression, personally held the wine jar and poured half a bowl of wine one by one, lifted one of them, and raised his hands in front of Liao Hai: "Uncle Hai, don't gossip, Wenqing wishes Uncle Hai a smooth journey here, please drink this bowl!" ”

"Thank you for the practice of the third young master, Liao Hai will be careful when he goes, and please rest assured that the third young master and the old man are at ease!" After speaking, he took the wine bowl and raised his head to drink.

The wine entered the throat, like a line of fire burning down the throat, the wine entered the abdomen, and a heat spread out in all directions, instantly baking the limbs into a hot and comfortable body, and couldn't help but praise loudly: "Good wine!" Haha, I think I, Liao Hai, have seen a lot, and I have never drunk such strong wine, the third young master, when Liao Hai returns, I will ask the third young master for an altar, and get drunk for a while! ”

"Good! Wen Qing prepared a good wine and waited for Uncle Hai to return smoothly, and at that time, Wen Qing should accompany Uncle Hai to drink! Liao Wenqing also accompanied a bowl, put down the bowl, his stomach was hot, and he felt pride welling up, and he couldn't help laughing loudly.

Originally, there were almost no men who didn't love wine, these perennial businessmen who ran out all the year round, as well as those who begged for life on the knife edge, there was no one who didn't love the contents of this cup, especially when this strong wine was entered, they all felt refreshed, their eyes lit up, listening to the shopkeeper of the Rejuvenation Hall over there, secretly thinking in their hearts, how to ask when they came back, where did they buy this wine, and when they came back, they got silver, and they had to buy two jars to drink a good drink!

At this time, Liao Wenqing had finished speaking, and he turned his eyes to look at Lin Niangzi, wanting to see if she had anything else to say. After all, the trauma medicine was made by her, and there are some precautions for transportation and storage, so maybe there is something else that needs to be advised.

Qiu Chen didn't have the restraints of ordinary women, nodded generously with a smile, stepped forward, and said with a smile: "I can't show my heart to a woman, this wine is brewed by my Lin family, and when you return safely, I will definitely serve a few more jars for everyone to drink!" ”

Just now, Liao Wenqing saw off the shopkeeper with Liao, and the others stood solemnly and didn't react much, Qiu Chen's words fell, but everyone cheered in unison!

After some people cheered, they couldn't help but show a happy face, talking with their companions, originally thinking that they didn't know where to find this kind of fine wine, but now they know that it was brewed by the Lin family, and they must find a way to buy a few jars when they come back...... There are also secretly pondering, although it was not related to the Lin family before, but now the Lin family also has people walking all the way, how can they have to live together for more than a month every day back and forth along the way, and then deal with the Lin family and build a good relationship, let alone return, maybe there will be a share of happiness on the way!

When Qiu Chen said this, Liao Wen was not surprised to see Lin Niangzi Huiyu early in the morning, but he looked at Qiu Chen's eyes and couldn't help but show a touch of joy and connivance. It's Liao Hai, I heard everything about the Lin family lady before, after all, I didn't feel anything about it, but now I saw Lin Niangzi's words, and I pulled the caravan together, with Lin Niangzi's words, I am afraid that there is no need for him to deliberately explain along the way, and there are people rushing to hand over a few people from the Lin family. The means are much more powerful than he imagined, the key is that although this is a woman, her words and deeds are bright and fair, and she does not have the slightest petty family anger, unlike those deep house women who are accustomed to using conspiracy, and they are generous and generous, but they are unambiguous. is above board, and the open fire is stubborn, so that people can't find a reason to refute it!

At this time, people pay special attention to good luck and evil, and the caravan also needs to look at the date and time when it departs. Qiu Chen said a word, and after a while, the auspicious time had arrived, Liao Hai jumped into the first carriage, shook the whip of the car vigorously, threw out a loud and crisp whip, and shouted: "Go!" ”

Carriages lined up one after another, one after the other, and drifted away.

The Lin family's carriage was taken care of, and Liao Hai arranged the middle of the caravan, followed by him behind the carriage, and the other stewards loaded the wagons in bulk, and the little servants and dart masters may have followed the sides of the carriage on foot because the convoy had just started at a speed that had not yet gotten up, or maybe the speed of the convoy was raised, and it was unknown that they would load the wagon. The others were obviously used to seeing it, and no one thought anything about it, but they looked at Qiu Chen bluntly.

From Liujiaao to Qingshui Town, she walked once or twice, and she felt extremely hard, looking at the caravan, even if those little dart masters could rub the car on the main road, they would have to walk at least half a ...... Thinking about this journey of hundreds or thousands of miles, it is really not ordinary hardship!

Whether it is sighing or reluctant, the convoy finally went away and gradually disappeared.

Liao Wenqing first quit Qiu Chen and Chen's shopkeeper, got in the car and left.

Sending a few people away, Qiu Chen was worried in his heart, but he also knew that this trip was inevitable, and it was useless to think too much, so he folded his spirits, resigned from Chen's shopkeeper, and let Junwen drive the car, and took Yang Shuyong and a few children, who were slightly depressed, and hurriedly turned back to Liujiaao without staying in the town. There are also various affairs such as medicine and speculation at home, and a few of them are worried about it, and they can't stay.

Not to mention that Qiu Chen and his entourage went home and were busy as usual, but it was only said that Lin Xu followed Yang Shumeng, brought Junshu Chengzi, and took a ride Xu Changwen's master and servant, and embarked on a long journey with the Huichun Hall convoy.

Since the sister-in-law brought up this matter, Lin Xu's young heart is not without excitement and expectation, even if the sister-in-law repeatedly advised, it has not been able to dispel the wonderful and fresh shijie excitement in the little boy's heart that he will walk out of the house and walk outside, supported by this excitement, the sadness and apprehension of saying goodbye to his home are far less intense than imagined.

Before going out in the morning, because of the excitement and a little nervous emotional influence, Lin Xu ate very little breakfast, this excited emotion supported him, farewell to the sister-in-law The touch of separation was very fading, he lifted the door curtains and curtains of the carriage, and enjoyed the scenery along the way with fresh joy.

It's spring, everything is sprouting, the eyes are full of life, and the bumpy roads are overlooked by the vigorous vitality on both sides of the road. Yang Shumeng often goes out, but Junshu and Chengzi are younger than Lin Xu, and it is also the first time to go out, so they are naturally full of excitement. Looking at the appearance of the two and a half children, Yang Shuyong seemed to see the little boy who followed his father out for the first time more than ten years ago, and he was also full of excitement and expectation, as if the weeds and wild trees on the side of the road were also beautiful enough.

Even Xu Changwen, after leaving Qingshui Town, on the road, looking at the verdant eyes on the side of the road and the farmhouse, his mood couldn't help but gradually open up.

Yang Shumeng's heart is lively, Xu Changwen is with him, and there will be no shortage of articles and knowledge with Lin Xu along the way, so he let Junshu catch the first car, thinking that Junshu will also be stained and learn some knowledge from Mr. Xu.

However, he also understands that the children have just left home and are excited, as long as the convoy stops to rest, he will introduce the two children to where they have arrived, how far they have left Qingshui Town, what are the anecdotes, slang and nostalgia, etc.

At the beginning, Xu Changwen just listened with a smile, and gradually took a few sentences, saying that Yang Shumeng did not mention the local cultural characteristics, as well as geographical and historical changes.

The two of them are vulgar and elegant, one is interesting and vivid, and the other is thick and deep, which makes the two children, plus the three children of Chengzi, listen to it very devotedly and benefit a lot.

This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being. It was only said that the Huichun Hall caravan went to the border army to deliver goods this time, because it was in a hurry, but it was in a hurry all the way. Not far from Qingshui Town, he began to move forward at full speed. At noon, it was just a short break on the side of the road, and having lunch also allowed the horses to regain their strength.

As soon as the convoy stopped, Junshu and Lin Xu led the horses and mules to the river to drink livestock, and then fed them with bean grits concentrate.

Chengzi and Yang Shumeng took out the meat that was still to be warmed and braised meat from the car. Look at it in a blink of an eye, not to mention those guys, even those dart masters and stewards gnaw cold steamed buns with pickles. Yang Shumeng didn't deliberately stammer, just as Liao Hai also got down from the carriage in front, so he greeted with a smile: "If Shopkeeper Liao doesn't dislike it, come over and eat together?" ”

Liao Hai arched his hand with a smile: "Thank you Brother Yang, you use it first, I'll take a look before and after, and come!" ”

Yang Shumeng naturally arched his hand, and watched Liao Hai take two entourages and check the situation of the convoy all the way to the front and back. Turning around again, I saw the shopkeepers nearby, gnawing on cold steamed buns and looking at this side with their eyes from time to time, full of envy and coveting, thinking about it a little in their hearts, according to the amount of food they had eaten, set aside some, held the basket with leftover meat to burn, and laughed loudly: "My sister is afraid that we will be hungry on the road, so she brought a lot of meat to burn." But I don't know that the weather is hot now, and if I can't eat it until the evening, I'm afraid it will be rancid. If you don't dislike it, come and help us share some food, it's a pity that such a good meat is burned out! ”

If it is sent directly, there may be that hypocrisy that it is food that comes from the mouth, as soon as Yang Shumeng said this, those who have long been a little unable to hide their gluttony dart master guys will squeeze over without any guilt, with a happy face, and one of them took a meat and burned it.

A young man who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, got the meat in his hand, and took a big bite without moving, the slightly burnt bread and the rich aroma of the meat filling made this young man's eyes suddenly brighten, chewing hard in his mouth, while nodding his head violently, and praised loudly: "It's delicious, it's delicious!" It's full of meat! ”

Everyone also smelled the rich aroma of meat, and listened to the young man's series of praises, and immediately put the meat in his hand into his mouth, and bit down, all of them praised loudly like the young man, and for a while, this group of people sounded countless praises. attracted the attention of the people in the front and rear teams, and after inquiring, they found out that it was the Lin family who brought the meat to the fire and distributed it to everyone...... It's a pity that listening to those who eat meat and burn it praise again and again, they don't have anything to eat, some sigh that their noses are not long enough, and some complain that they are not assigned to the position of the Lin family......

There was not too much braised meat, and Qiu Chen considered that it was difficult to keep it fresh, so he only filled one jar. Not long after, Liao Hai rushed back after checking the convoy, and Li Zhenbei also heard how the Lin family's meat was burning, and he was worried about the Lin family's wine, so he came over with Liao Hai with a salivating face.

"It's okay to have delicious food to satisfy your cravings, but you can't drink wine!" It's not the first time that Liao Hai and Li Zhenbei have traveled together, they have long been familiar with each other, and when they saw Liao Hai's face full of salivation, they knew what he was calculating, and immediately poured a scoop of cold water on him.

"If you don't drink more, you can't just take a sip?" Liao Haiyan smiled and discussed.

Liao Hai glared at him and said, "Just one bite of you?" A pound of wine is down, and I'm embarrassed to say! No way! When you get to the ground, you hand over the goods, let you drink into mud, I don't bother to care about you, this time the goods you know, it's not trivial, in case there is a bad pool, but it's not a loss of silver, I can't say that the big guy will hand over his head together! ”

"Uh......" Li Zhenbei can hold up such a big dart game, and he is not an ordinary person, so he naturally knows the power of this dart, so he can't say it, so he has to suppress the insects who are ready to drink, but he still followed Liao Hai to the Lin family to dine together.

Yang Shumeng, Lin Xu and Xu Changwen saw the two of them and naturally greeted each other. Going out, and in the middle of the trip, everyone is not rigid and polite, a little greeting are all sitting on the spot, Junshu, adult children, young age, naturally more labor, Junshu opened the braised meat jar, the fire basket cage cloth was also uncovered, Chengzi carried the kettle and poured a cup of warm tea for everyone, and took chopsticks for everyone. Although everyone sat on the ground, they also felt that the seat was thoughtful and proper. Liao Hai's eyes flashed as he looked at a few people whose manners were naturally neither humble nor arrogant, and he looked at the sumptuous but unassuming food utensils, and he was more admired in his heart for the cloth and skirt that did not even wear a piece of jewelry for the Lin family's lady.

Although there are not many varieties of food, it is full of fragrance, and the teeth and cheeks are fragrant, and Li Zhenbei applauded again and again after eating a meal. Since then, there has been one more thought about the Lin family.

After eating and drinking, Yang Shumeng and Lin Xu Junshu worked together, changed to spare mules and horses, and went on the road again. This journey was another afternoon of hurried, until the sky was completely dark, and the moon was in the middle of the sky, and a small town stopped.

There are many people in this group, so they naturally live in the carriage shop Datongpu, Mr. Xu's master and servant naturally live in a single room, Lin Xu saw that Liao Hai and Li Zhenbei also slept in Tongpu, he was not good at being special, and waited for Mr. Xu to settle down in the room, so he went back to the Tongpu room, next to Chengzi, Junshu, and Yang Shumeng, and occupied one end of the shop.

At night, Lin Xu really realized the true taste of sleeping in the bunk.

The bedding was rudimentary, and they brought a few quilts on the carriage, and they made it themselves. Only a few dozen people squeezed together, these rough men were full of food and drink, and they didn't even wash their feet, and when they took off their shoes, the smell of sweat and feet wafted out from afar, and they could fight with people from afar. After a tiring day, these people fell asleep on the kang, this sleep was dead and heavy, snoring like thunder, and gritting their teeth and talking in their dreams, especially the ones who said in their dreams, they were startled and their voices were very loud, Lin Xu finally couldn't help but be sleepy and was about to fall asleep, but he was woken up by a loud shout, his heart was pounding wildly, and it took him a long time to stabilize his mind, but he couldn't fall asleep in the middle of the night...... This is not to blame Lin Xu for being hypocritical, the key is that he has not experienced it. Although the Lin family was embarrassed before, Lin Xu had been sleeping alone, where had he experienced this kind of battle.

After such a toss, the next day, when those men got up and washed up and went on the road again, Lin Xu's handsome little face was wilted and haggard. Compared with him, although Junshu and Chengzi are obviously not as good as the spirit of the first day, after all, Chengzi has endured hardships, and Junshu has also been out of the door once or twice with his father and second uncle before, and he has been sleeping in the carriage, so his adaptability to the shop is much better.

Yang Shumeng was really startled when he saw Lin Xu's appearance, and after thinking about it carefully, he understood the reason. When he got on the car and set off, he asked Lin Xu to make up for sleep in the carriage. Mr. Xu also tried his best to take care of it and let him lie down and rest in the carriage.

When the team suspended its rest at noon, Yang Shumeng took a bag of dried meat, quietly looked for Liao Hai and said, thinking that when he was a child at night, he would ask Lin Xu for a separate room.

When he looked for the past, it happened that Li Zhenbei also had dinner with Liao Hai. Li Zhenbei's eyes were very sharp, and when he saw the poplar tree coming over from afar, he laughed hesitantly: "I know that there is something outside to eat with you!" ”

As he spoke, he got up to meet Yang Shumeng, and without saying a word, he grabbed the paper bag in Yang Shumeng's hand, pulled it away, picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it, and did not forget to sigh: "This dried meat is really authentic!" It's much better than the gentleman's salted jerky just now, hehe......"

Then he squeezed his eyes at Yang Shuyong and said with a smile, "What, but you two can't stand it?" ”

Yang Shumeng used to catch the car, and most of the people in Pingsuri were rough men, and he was close to a bold man like Li Zhenbei, so he smiled and said: "Several children are going out for the first time, and it is inevitable that they will not be able to sleep well at night, and if they go on like this, they are only afraid of ......."

Li Zhenbei didn't wait for him to finish, so he stopped the conversation and said, "Brother, what you said is not right." Seeing that you also go out often, you should naturally know that there will inevitably be such a level at the beginning, grit your teeth and stick to the past, and it will be good to get used to it. At that time, even if you are wrapped in a leather jacket in the field, you will still sleep soundly. Besides, now we have just walked for a day, and there are still villages and towns that let us stay in the top spots, and then walk for a few days, and when we get to the wild land over there, we can't see the shadow of the world for a few days, where do you go to find that single room for him to stay alone? According to me, it is better to hone and hone while you are here, and it will save you from being difficult to adapt to that wild place, and then you will be stuck with the symptoms, but it will harm them! I looked at that kid and it was not bad, there was no motion sickness or anything, it was just that he couldn't sleep well at night, and he got used to staying up for two days. ”

It was not the first time for Yang Shumeng to go out, and he naturally knew that Li Zhenbei was reasonable, but before going out, his sister's repeated instructions made him a little unable to let go, but he was afraid that Lin Xu would come out with him and there would be no way to explain to his sister-in-law when he went back.

However, after all, he is not that ignorant of the world, after listening to Li Zhenbei's words, he had already stopped thinking about finding a single room for Lin Xu, and looked at Liao Hai again, and saw that the mature and steady Liao Da shopkeeper also nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Li Zhenbei's opinion, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and said: "That's it!" ”

Yang Shumeng's application for a single room for Lin Xu was declared a failure, and when it came to the evening again, Lin Xu, Junshu, and Chengzi naturally followed everyone to live in Datongpu. However, the one who talked in his dreams and the two snorers were particularly loud and were transferred to another room. I barely slept last night, and I didn't sleep well on the carriage, and the three boys were naturally very sleepy, and without the thunder and snoring and the amazing dream talk, they unexpectedly slept until dawn.

When he got up early the next morning, Yang Shu looked at Lin Xu, Junshu, and Chengzi with a lot of heart, obviously much better than the day before, which can be regarded as a relief. Xindao, this child finally survived the first hurdle of going out.

Besides, Yang Shuyong and Qiu Chen took the children back to Liujiaao, and it was close to noon.

From a distance, I saw the construction site of the school not far east of the Lin family, and mud and moving stones...... People come and go, lively and busy.

In the past few days, Qiu Chen has been busy preparing for a few people to travel, and he is so busy that he doesn't care about building a school at all. If you see it today, you can't help but ask.

After all, the school was built by her, although the Lin family has produced materials, but if the Lin family has not shown up, first, the Lin family's efforts will be forgotten, and second, there may be some gossip, such as not contributing to the money...... She is not so selfless, she can't do good things after spending money!

pondering in his heart, he opened his mouth and asked Yang Shuyong: "Big brother, do you know what is going on in the school?" How many people have you found? ”

Yang Shuyong smiled and said: "This thing is really decent, and I found more than 20 people." The village is discussing with the village elders and deciding that if there is labor in the village, there will be labor, and if there is no labor, it will cost 200 yuan. There was no labor or money, so a woman had to come and help cook. Oh, I saw that there was smoke on the other side, that is, I set up a temporary stove and found a dozen or so women to cook a meal. I heard that the meal is still ready, a meat stew, a pot of pickles, and a full roll on both sides. ”

Qiu Chen nodded: "So, the laborers have no wages?" ”

Yang Shuyong glanced at Qiu Chen with a smile: "When building houses and walls in the village, most of them are neighbors who help each other, take care of meals, and generally don't pay wages. ”

Qiu Chen raised his eyebrows and laughed as well.

"Big brother, I'm thinking, we're also busy, but we can't spare people, we can't go over to manpower, so let's add a dish to them at noon every day, okay?"

Yang Shuyong looked at his sister and said with a smile: "Wow, why is it not good." Although we have produced materials, we must also show up! However, the dish doesn't have to be too good, just add a meat dish, and the portion is sufficient! ”

Qiu Chen responded and began to think about the ingredients at home.

I didn't think about it in the town just now, otherwise I would have bought a pork and came back. Nowadays, there are still some fresh pork at home, and the mule meat has been eaten for two days, and there are only some marinated cooked meat......

Well, let's use salted pork today.

The spinach in the vegetable garden is long, it is already two bundles high, just make a salted pork fried spinach, don't always stew, then the bright green vegetables are stewed and wilted, it is very unpalatable.

After making a decision, the group also arrived home.

In the past few days, I have been busy with codeword...... I couldn't thank my relatives for their support and encouragement.

The first month of "Fu Mantang" on the shelves is over in a blink of an eye, Su Su praises, spurs, and corrects your relatives, xiexie, you ...... xiexie…… l3l4
