170 queues
Time flies by in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, it has been more than half a month.
Su Yu looked at the long queue outside the door with a headache, and she smiled bitterly: That vinegar really can't cure the plague, you may be mistaken.
The first person in line widened his eyes and said: Miss Su, don't say that, that thing is used by the yamen, can it still be used? Oh, Miss Su, you can do it, you can do it, you say a price, my old lady is old, I have to buy some for her to guard, you can make a price!
Later, he was already begging bitterly.
Su Yu explained: That's right, this vinegar can only prevent ,...... Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by one of the people in the team, who said: "Nonsense, I obviously saw a person fall in the yamen, and he couldn't do it when he saw it, and the yamen's catcher fed him a mouthful of this vinegar, and he woke up immediately, and he could still walk and jump!" Girl, don't you want to sell, coax us!
Su Yu's face froze.
Even if this vinegar can smelt diseases, it is also a minor disease, how can these people blow so badly. She was really speechless, okay, I don't know where the news came from, saying that her family has a new thing called 'vinegar', which can smelt the plague, but it works, this doesn't count, and said that the people of the yamen use the stove to burn vinegar during the day, and look, the people of the yamen deal with the sick people every day, and none of them are sick!
There is also news from the family that if they feel unwell and seem to have symptoms of infection, they will not go to work, just stay in the yamen for a few days, and then ensure that nothing happens.
As soon as these words came out, those people in the town who felt uncomfortable (or those who felt that they might get sick in their hearts) squatted outside the yamen, and their noses smelled the 'smell of medicine' emitted from the yamen, there were really a lot of people, of course, there were many people who were blocked outside Su Yu's house, and there were also cheeky people who wanted to stay at Su Yu's house and not leave, but they were driven out by Su Yu.
Next door is Zhang Zhutou's house, which is naturally terrifying.
As soon as the words that vinegar could save lives came out, the people in the town were really crazy, and it took them a long time to finally find out that the vinegar came out of Su Yu's house, and they came to the door one by one as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they came to the door with the silver. There is the first, naturally there is the second, and the third ......
After a long time, more and more people blocked the door of Su Yu's house, as long as it was not windy and rainy, they were guarding the door, they felt that there was always a time to buy it. Besides, this little girl's family doesn't look like a black-hearted person, if it weren't for the scruples of the headhunter next door or the head catcher, they would have broken into Su Yu's house and threw away the silver, and took the vinegar away.
Su Yuzhu didn't know how this matter came out, and she was secretly happy at the beginning, if she took the opportunity to spread the reputation of vinegar, it would be a good thing, so at the beginning, she sold vinegar, a small jar of the kind, and after selling a few cans, things developed in a weird direction.
Look, these people lined up outside the door all came to buy vinegar, and the line was lined up from the door of Su Yu's house to West Street, and the line was long.
But the problem now is that there is no vinegar to sell at all, the new vinegar has not come out yet, and it will take a few days.
Su Yu looked at the long queue outside the door, and remembered Zhang Zhutou's words again, Zhang Zhutou also came over after dark yesterday, he said it clearly, the vinegar of the yamen is gone, he wants to buy it, he also buys a small jar of silver or two! The key is that the yamen lacks this, the vinegar of the yamen has been burned, the city god temple and the villages outside the town are getting more and more sick, one or two people are dying every day, there is no way at all, you can only watch the sick person die, the people of the yamen deal with the sick all day long, and they are naturally very susceptible to infection.
Zhang Zhutou has always felt that if it weren't for these vinegars, they might have been the same as those who are sick, so he is very sure that these acids can smelt diseases and save people!
He felt that this was a good medicine, if it weren't for the fact that Su Yu's family's stock was really insufficient, he would be eager to move some more to burn in the City God Temple and the village, it would definitely be useful.
It's a pity that the Su family doesn't have much vinegar, and it can't be used elsewhere at all, so Zhang Zhutou gave up this idea.
Su Yu sighed, and at this moment, Bai Fan walked out of the courtyard, he walked to Su Yu's side, and said, "There is something I want to discuss with you."
Su Yu looked at him, nodded and said, "Okay." After speaking, she glanced at the outside of the hospital, the crowd couldn't see the end at a glance, it was really a headache, Su Yu was about to go back to the house, and the one who was first in line hurriedly grabbed her: Miss Su, where are you going, you can't ignore us!
When the people behind heard this, they seemed to rush up and grab Su Yu, the corners of Su Yu's eyes twitched slightly, and she said: I don't have much vinegar here, let's come back tomorrow afternoon, and then there will be new vinegar.
Standing in the first place, that is, the one at the door, his eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said excitedly: Can you sell us vinegar tomorrow?
Su Yu and Bai Fan glanced at each other, nodded and said: Yes, but there are not many of them, and how much they can sell can only depend on the will of heaven.
The man said with joy on his face: It's okay, I'll just stand outside the door and wait, I can always buy it. The top 10 people in the back are all happy on their faces, they are in the front, they don't have to worry, they just have to wait until tomorrow. As for the tail of the team, he didn't listen to Su Yu at all.
When the words fell, Su Yu turned around and was about to go back to the house, and was about to close the door, she was surprised to find that the people outside the door did not move, she asked: Didn't you say that you should come back tomorrow?
The man standing at the head of the line said, "No, it's okay to keep a night here, and if you go back now, it will be a waste of all your efforts."
The few people behind him nodded their heads repeatedly, and they stood tightly in place, for fear that someone else would take their place.
Su Yu shook his head helplessly and asked, "The temperature is very low at night, are you not afraid of frostbite if you keep a night here?"
The man gritted his teeth and said: It's okay, when someone comes to the house, let them bring the bed quilt over, cover it with the quilt, it won't be cold.
There are also people in the back: Yes, there are still cotton clothes at home, and it won't be cold when you wear cotton clothes.
Anyway, they will never leave, seeing that the vinegar is about to arrive, and now to go, isn't it stupid?
Su Yu couldn't persuade her, and she didn't bother to say more, she closed the door, Bai Fan pulled her aside and said: I'm afraid I have to leave.
Su Yu asked: Do you want to go back to Bai's house? They had discussed this matter before, and they had decided to cooperate with the Bai family before, so they simply put the credit of the vinegar on the Bai family, she didn't want to be involved, this vinegar was so respected by these people, she really didn't dare to think about what would happen after that. Therefore, she told Bai Fan before that she would tell Bai Shi'an about this, and then see Bai Shi'an's decision-making.
Bai Fandao: Yes. Bai Fan swept in the direction of the courtyard and said: I think this is an opportunity, since they think that vinegar has such an effect, I think my young master will not let go of this opportunity.
Su Yudao: Tomorrow the vinegar will be revealed or not, why don't you leave tomorrow?
Bai Fan's brows first frowned, and then let go: Okay, then I'll leave tomorrow. Yes, no matter how anxious you are, you have to see the results of vinegar, especially this time there is white vinegar.
Su A-Niang's voice came out of the kitchen: Erniu, the meal is ready, come and serve it.
Su Yuying said: Okay. After speaking, she went to the kitchen, and when Su A-Niang saw Su Yu, she asked: Are those people outside gone?
Su Yu shook her head: No.
Su A-Niang said worriedly: What can I do about this? I saw that there were a lot of people in line, how can we have so much vinegar in our house, this new vinegar is not good.
Su Yu comforted: Mother, don't worry, Zhang Zhutou's family lives next door, those people don't dare to mess around, this new vinegar is almost ready, I will sell some to them tomorrow.
When Su A-Niang heard this, she was even more worried: If it is sold, those people will know that our family has vinegar, what can we do if we keep it every day?
Su Yu thought for a while and said: There is no way, only to take one step at a time.
Su A-Niang smiled bitterly: Hey, if I knew this, we wouldn't burn vinegar in the outer courtyard.
Su Yu said: If it is not burned, what can we do if someone in our family really gets sick, isn't it because of a small loss?
Su A-Niang thought about it, it was really like this, she stopped the topic, she pointed to the noodles on the stove and said: "Erniu, quickly bring the noodles to the house and eat." After Su A-Niang finished speaking, she suddenly lowered her voice and said: "Erniu, why don't we go to Zhangjia Village, your second uncle said that there are not many people infected in Zhangjia Village, so let's take this opportunity to hide."
Su A-Niang looked out of the courtyard.
Su Yu shook his head and said: Mother, the vinegar will be fine tomorrow, if we leave, who cares about the vinegar? Besides, haven't you heard that it's easy to get out of the city and difficult to enter the city, the outside of the city is full of people, there are sick people, there are homeless people, and there are village people, it's very messy, there are more and more officers and soldiers guarding the door, and it's rare to enter the city recently! Mother, think about it, it's easy for us to get out of Zhangjia Village, but can we get in?
At this time, Su Daniu also entered the kitchen, and when she heard this, she also said: Mother, look at the second uncle, until now, I haven't been able to get my grandmother and aunt in, this is difficult.
Su A-Niang muttered: I think so, since Zhangjia Village is fine, it is better for us to live in Zhangjia Village temporarily, and this town is not stable.
Mother, that's not what I said, if this town is really unstable, then why do people from outside have to come in? After Su Yu finished speaking, Wang Yu said quickly, there are more and more displaced people coming from the south, although most of them are rushing to the capital, but there are also people passing by us, and there are outside the town!
Su A-Niang was shocked: Are the homeless people coming?
Su Yu nodded with a heavy face and said: Wang Zhuai said this time, and Zhang Zhutou also said that Changzhi County has already written a chapter and reported this matter to the imperial court, and the army may come over.
It was the first time that Su Daniu heard this, she opened her eyes and asked: Send troops over? Is there such a strict zhòng? I've heard that the people outside the town are very peaceful.
Su Yudao: It's safe now, because the county magistrate pulls out grain and boils porridge every day, and when the food in the town is gone, you see what will happen to those people. The people are for food and for the sky, once the rations are gone, it is tantamount to death, who wants to wait for death?
Su Yu only hoped that the imperial court would send an army to come over earlier, and the displaced people would go north, and the chaos would definitely not stop here.
Su A-Niang's breath tightened when she heard this, she held Su Yu's hand tightly and said: Your grandmother and they are still in the village, what can I do?
Su Yu comforted: The second uncle knows in his heart, since there is no disease in Zhangjia Village, there are many men in the prime of life, and the second uncle has mentioned that he will patrol the night, if this is the case, ordinary homeless people will not be able to fight the idea of the Zhang family.
Su A-Niang breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Daniu suddenly said on the side: I don't know what happened to Sujia Village. She quietly glanced at Su A-Niang and Erniu's faces, Erniu's face was as usual, but Su A-Niang's face changed and changed, she forgot about Sujia Village, and even forgot the safety of the second elder of the Su family.
Su A-Niang said worriedly: Big girl, second girl, nothing will happen to your grandparents.
Su Yu and Su Daniu didn't speak, and they hadn't been to Sujia Village, who knew about it.
Su A-Niang became more and more worried, she gritted her teeth and said: "Erniu, although our family and the old Su family do not deal with each other, but this human life is a matter of heaven, we have to inquire, lest we ......
Su Yu suddenly remembered something: Didn't Xiao Zhukuai take care of the area of Sujia Village, I heard that he returned yesterday, let's find someone to ask.
Su A-Niang's eyes were happy, and she nodded violently and said: This is a good idea.
Su Daniu said: We can't go empty-handed.
Su Yu bent the corners of his mouth and said: Why don't you take a small half jar of vinegar, there is still a little grape vinegar left from our family, anyway, it will be good to understand the new vinegar, let's keep some and put some more for Xiao Zhu, if he doesn't like this, let's change it to something else.
Su Daniu smiled: This thing is in demand, he will definitely like it.
Su Yu said: This is not necessarily, he has been staying in the village, and I don't know if he has heard about this vinegar, alas, then again, the effect of this vinegar ...... She didn't dare to guarantee it.
Su Aniang's eyebrows were soothed, and she smiled: Okay, Erniu, let's go when you eat.
Su Yu turned his head and glanced at the closed courtyard door, and said with a wry smile: Mother, I'm afraid I can't go, those people can stare at me, let Ah Ping go when the time comes, or let Bai Fan run away.
Su Daniu held her forehead and muttered: Yes, I also think it's weird, those people are crazy, if they don't get vinegar, they won't leave, Erniu, tell me, is this thing really that useful?
Su Yu shook his head and said: I can't say for sure, anyway, I don't dare to guarantee it.
Su A-Niang reminded beside her: Don't talk about this, hurry up and eat noodles, this noodle can't be put anymore, it will be a paste if you put it again.
Su Yu and Su Dayu hurriedly responded: Got it, mother, what about them?
Su A-Niang said: You go and eat, and I will serve it in them. She said as she put up the noodles in the pot water, there is a lot of food at home, but there is not much money, Su Aniang's noodles do not add anything except salt, however, this ancient thing is not polluted, it is all natural, even if it is just salt, the taste is not bad.
After that, Xiaobao Bai Fan and the Gao brothers both took the noodles out and began to eat them slowly. Since Gao Ping and Gao Le lived in Gao's house, they have not only grown flesh, but also grown taller, especially Gao Ping, who is a head taller than before.
Gao Ping got the new clothes, tears were in his eyes, and at the beginning he said that he would not accept anything, but Su A-Niang said that if he didn't accept it, no one would wear this clothes, so Gao Ping took the new clothes.
The body has grown taller, and the old clothes are naturally not worn, and there is more than one new clothes, as well as winter clothes, so ah, Su A-Niang has been making winter clothes for half a month, Su Da Niu and Su Erniu's, Xiaobao's, Gao brothers', Su A-Niang even recorded Bai Fan's share.
As for Second Uncle Zhang, naturally Second Uncle Zhang takes care of her, so she doesn't need to worry about it. If she really helped her second brother make clothes, the second sister-in-law would not say anything, and she would definitely not be happy in her heart.
Su A-Niang knows this very well, if she really wants to thank the second brother, pull a few feet of cloth and send it, and let the second sister-in-law sew it by herself.
After eating, Su A-Niang mentioned that she was going to find Xiao Zhukuai, she refused to let Su Da Niu go out, now Su Da Niu is also older, and she will be fourteen after the New Year, and it is time to say kiss, but it is not good to move around, as for the second girl, she is also a female baby, and now the crowd of people outside is blocking the door, Su A-Niang does not dare to let Su Yu go out like this.
Her eyes swept over Bai Fan and Gao Ping's bodies, and Bai Fan took the initiative to mention: Auntie, let me go.
At the same time, Gao Ping's voice also sounded: I'll go.
Su Yu thought for a while and said: You two go together, you will have to carry vinegar later, it is not safe to be alone.
Xiaobao was surprised: Why do you want to mention vinegar? He looked at Su Yu, then at Su A-Niang, and asked, "Didn't you say it wasn't enough?"
Su Yudao: Let's ask for people, naturally we have to give gifts.
Gao Ping asked: Why are you asking for people, aren't we living well? He and Xiaole lived in the Su family, and they remembered the kindness of the Su family, but although they were doing well, they were always worried in their hearts, and they were afraid of being kicked out.
Su Daniu hurriedly said: Aren't the villagers in Sujia Village sick, aren't we from Sujia Village, our family doesn't live in the village now, but my grandmother is still there, although it doesn't even count as face, but if they are really dead, our family doesn't say anything at all, then it's a bastard.
I see.
Su Yu added: By the way, you can't use a jar to fill vinegar, you have to go out from the gate later, if you let the people queuing outside know that there is vinegar, I'm afraid that it will be robbed, let's change things to pretend, what do you think?
Yes, you have to change things, but what do you change it to?
Xiao Bao had an idea: it is better to use a gourd with wine, this thing is small, put it in a basket, and then cover it with a cloth, they will definitely not know.
So be it.
In the end, Bai Fan and Gao Ping went out with two baskets on their backs, and the baskets made of bamboo were brought by Zhang's second uncle from Zhangjia Village, and there were a lot of baskets like that.
When they came out, the people in line outside were all staring at the two of them, which made Bai Xin and Gao Ping quite uncomfortable, but they still walked forward as if nothing happened.
On the way, they heard some voices from time to time: You see, they came out of it, and they must have something to do with Miss Nasu.
Hey, what are they carrying in that basket, could it be vinegar|?
No, the vinegar won't be put like that, and there is no jar in the crack of the basket, so it shouldn't be vinegar.
Bai Fan and Gao Ping walked away slowly in such a voice, they naturally did not go to the road where there was a long queue, but changed the alley, Gao Ping was familiar with this area, and it was the road he led.
After walking for a while, Bai Fan asked Gao Ping: Is this the way to Yamen, we don't know where Xiao Zhukuai lives, let's go to Yamen first.
Gao Ping shook his head and said: No, I know where Xiao Zhukuai's house is, if this is sent to the yamen, maybe it will be taken by Zhang Zhutou.
Bai Fan nodded and said: That's right. After speaking, Bai Fan looked at Gao Ping again: How do you know where Xiao Zhukuai's house is?
Gao Ping was silent for a while, and said: We are useless in the Su family, so we want to write down all the houses in the town, we did this when we were beggars, and we have been doing well recently, and we have forgotten a little, if we can't even remember where the residents in the town live, we are really useless. Actually, there was one more thing he didn't say after this, he thought about it, if he was driven out by the Su family in the future, he would find a place to stay.
Gao Ping knew in his heart that the Su family was a good family and would not drive him out lightly, but who could say for sure what would happen in the future?
Bai Fan hummed softly, he understood.
Xiao Zhukuai is on another street, and he doesn't live on the street where he lives, Xiao Zhukuai's house is an ancestral house, and he can't move it lightly, so he will be a little far away from those new fishing areas.
As he was walking, the sound of a carriage came from in front of him, Bai Fan looked up, and he was suddenly stunned, young master!
