Chapter Seventy-Five: Keeping an Eye on the Old Cow
Li Tang glanced at Xia Muhan with a flickering gaze, lowered his head, played with a few gadgets in his hand, was silent for a while, leaned in front of Yang Qiyue, and asked in a low voice, "Mother, can you not talk about it now?" I'll tell you slowly when we get home. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info guarantee to fully explain to you. ”
"Huh?" Yang Qiyue raised her tone, holding the teacup in her hand, and gently blowing the tea leaves floating on it.
Li Tang knew that his mother didn't care about anything about this, and her plain appearance was the most terrifying. Dogs that bite people generally don't bark. Bah! Bah! His mother is not a dog, Li Tang interrupted his thoughts.
"Mother, I'll help you blow it. This tea is hot on the mouth. Li Tang took Yang Qiyue's teacup doggedly. quietly gave his mother a look and compared a word, which was the exclusive code of their mother. said that he would admit defeat this time, and in the future, he would help her mother free of charge from the pressure from her grandmother, which is a shield in layman's terms.
Li Tang didn't admit it this time, he could say in front of Xia Muhan that he wanted to be embarrassed in front of his friends, he had a master of archers, and from now on he would follow the master to the pinnacle of life, and it was not the same level as these young people who had achieved nothing.
And why did you choose Taste Hall? It's because he has already inquired about it, Xia Muhan is opening a bun shop today, if the first person the master knocks on the door and sees him today, he should look up to him. Then he followed the master one day, saddled the horse for the master, and deepened the master's fine quality of being hardworking and able to bear hardships and stand hard work.
Li Tang secretly wondered how such a huge mistake could occur with such a perfect method. A few teenagers sneaked out of the door, undisciplined by adults, and drank too much in a comfortable mood. When they were drunk, they still remembered their original plans. It seems that there is some truth in what Dad says on weekdays.
After appeasing his "queen mother" and signing a series of unequal treaties. After sending off the "Queen Mother" back home, Li Tang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master, your steamed bun shop seems to be doing well, and I'll go over to help." Li Tang stood at the door and looked at Xia Cao and them not far away, and said to Xia Muhan.
"No need, you better go home first, ask someone to cook a big bowl of ginger tea, go to the smell of wine, and sober up. It doesn't taste good to be drunk, so you should drink less in the future. Xia Muhan directly refused.
The joke brought the wild boy who was covered in the smell of alcohol to the bun shop, didn't he tear down the brand he had painstakingly managed? The wine-flavored buns are estimated to be acceptable to no one in Wusu Town. In addition, this kid has a really big heart, he doesn't know that he is the focus of the audience now, and the pair of curious gossip eyes outside are focused on him. If he is asked to help, will their buns still be sold?
Although he was rejected, Li Tang was still happy, and the master still cared about him. took Li Shi to chase after her family's "Queen Mother", trying to recover the unequal treaty just now.
The protagonists all left, and the watchmen who had been listening to the play at the door also left one after another. There are still a few special good deeds left, still guarding the door of the taste hall, waiting for the taste hall to open for business, and then trying to set up a shopkeeper to see if they can ask for more detailed inside information.
Xia Cao and they benefited from this burglar's burglary, their steamed buns and soy milk are really on fire in Wusu Town, most of the people in the town know about it, and if they want to eat the most delicious steamed buns in the town, they will go to the steamed bun shop in front of the taste hall.
In an hour or so, the Xia family's steamed bun shop closed and closed the stall.
"Mother, today's business is really good! It would be nice to do the same tomorrow. Xia Cao said.
"Mother, I see that the eldest brother has been collecting money all the time, and we should make a lot of money." Xia Maihe agreed.
"What are you yelling about" Xia Qiaomu gave Xia Maihe a breakdown, he looked around and leaned into Xia Maihe's ear, "Shhh, didn't we teach you not to show it?" You see so many people around, what if a thief targets us. ”
Su Shi looked at the three children who were like living treasures, just smiled, didn't speak, and packed up their things with Xia Muhan.
After packing up, they went to Zhu Butcher's pork shop first and bought more than a dozen catties of pork, some of which were to treat the whole family, and the other part was to prepare tomorrow's bun filling.
After today's trial business, Su Shi and they found that some people are still used to pork, and they are slightly repulsed by rabbit meat.
Before lunch, Xia Cao's family drove the borrowed ox cart back to Taoli Village.
The villagers of Taoli Village are busy farming, and almost no one takes a car to the town. Old man Li simply lent the ox cart to Xia Muhan for a few days, and if he met people from the village who were rushing to the town, he could take them all the way.
After lunch, the Xia family, who had been busy all morning, fell asleep deeply, and the small courtyard of the Xia family was rarely quiet, leaving only a few chickens to occasionally make a "cooing" sound.
It's been a long time since I've been so tired from work, and I didn't get enough sleep last night. Xiaocao didn't wake up from her sleep until Shin Shi.
Xia Cao, who woke up and moved her muscles, followed Xia Maihe to the crescent creek to fetch water. Because there was no time in the morning, Xia Maihe moved the time to carry water every day to the afternoon.
The mother river of Taoli Village in Crescent Creek, a long and winding stream surrounds the entire Taoli Village, and does not freeze all year round. The villagers have a common agreement that the upper reaches of the stream are for daily drinking, and they have to go to the lower reaches of the stream to wash vegetables and clothes on weekdays.
It is also strange that Xia Cao did not find a well in Taoli Village, and I don't know what the reason is.
Xia Cao, who was too lazy to move, did not follow Xia Maihe back and forth between his home and the stream, but sat by the clear stream and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the countryside.
"Sister, you have to remember to take care of this cow and don't let it spoil other people's vegetable crops." Xia Mai He told Xia Cao.
Old man Li lent the cattle to their family, so of course they had to do the work of herding the cattle.
"Got it, second brother. Am I that unreliable? Xia Cao replied. Then she urged, "Second brother, you hurry up and carry water home." ”
Xia Maihe looked at his sister's thin figure, and then looked at the strong old cow, still slightly uneasy. The rope that tied the old cow was reinforced a few more times and wrapped around the willow trunk next to it, and then he left with peace of mind.
It's a pity that Xia Maihe was relieved too early. The restless Xia Cao first looked at herself back and forth to make sure that there was no red at all. Staring at the smooth back of the old cow, his eyes showed a look of longing.
In addition to riding it once or twice when I was a child, I really miss the taste of this cowback. "The shepherd boy rides the ox, and the song shakes the forestry." How can you say that you grew up in the countryside if you have never ridden a cow? (To be continued.) )
