Since Lu Zhong bought the calf, there were two more families in the village to drive the passengers, and the calves of Hongguoguo were placed in front of them, and if Lu Zhong really wanted to say that he didn't make money, they wouldn't believe it.

In fact, only half of the eight taels of silver for buying calves are earned by carrying passengers and pulling goods, and the rest is earned by selling pigs, chickens and steamed buns, of course, Lu Zhong will not explain to people stupidly, since they are red-eyed and love to follow the trend, let them follow, if they don't enter the industry, they don't know the hardships, let them experience it themselves, and the rumors will disperse.

Now that the dry food business has begun to bear fruit, Lu Zhong no longer drives passengers every day, and concentrates on selling scones.

Lu Xiaoyi no longer followed, but helped Yulan make cakes with Xiaoding at home.

On this day, Mrs. Lu walked over and saw Yulan pressing the dough cakes one by one on the pit wall, and said in surprise: "Ouch, you don't need to hold a good iron pot, why do you stick the cakes in the stove?" ”

As long as it doesn't involve a secret recipe, Yulan doesn't hide it from Mrs. Lu, and says lightly: "It's baked like this!" ”

Mrs. Lu stretched out her head to look into the pit, and sighed: "It's still fine wheat noodles, will your ruined daughter-in-law live?" Empty the granary and take the old and young to beg? ”

Yulan didn't answer her, and Lu Xiaoyi said: "Grandmother, we make cakes to sell for money, and the money from the sale will buy wheat, and the granary can't be kept empty." ”

Mrs. Lu disagreed, "In my opinion, there is a harvest in the field and grain in the warehouse, just live a good life with peace of mind, and it is not too troublesome to buy and sell." ”

Lu Xiaoyi already has a fixed pattern for dealing with Mrs. Lu, as long as she pulls it on Xiao Geng, she will blindly agree, "Grandmother, we are willing to trouble no matter how troublesome we are, don't you just want to make a hard-earned money and save up to marry Xiao Geng's daughter-in-law in the future?" ”

Mrs. Lu's face smiled like a flower, and she said yes again and again.

Lu Xiaoyi said again: "Grandmother, you have to hide and tuck it when we make cakes, so that those red-eyed people in the village can listen to it, and maybe they will follow it again, just like the passenger business, if there are too many people, you can't do it, and if you can't make money, how will Xiao Geng marry a daughter-in-law in the future?" How will you hold your great-grandson in the future? ”

Knowing that the villagers of the scone business couldn't imitate it, Lu Xiaoyi was still talking nonsense with Mrs. Lu seriously, Yulan couldn't stand it, and glared at Lu Xiaoyi.

Mrs. Lu believed it and complained, "Phew! These people who have pink eye, they can't see the good of other people's homes in their eyes, they have to come to intervene in everything, they have to come to inquire about everything, and who will come to my ear to chew the root of their tongue in the future, and see how I clean her up. ”

was complaining, Xiao Geng ran to the backyard with Xiao Gray Ash, and coincidentally fell at the feet of Lu Pozi, this vision was just the same as Xiao Gray Gray, Xiao Geng was not in a hurry to get up, lying on the ground and looking at Xiao Gray Gray.

Mrs. Lu was distressed, and hurriedly helped Xiao Geng up, but still didn't forget to raise her feet to pick up the little gray ash, if it wasn't for the puppy's cleverness, it was estimated that she would roll a few times.

I only heard Mrs. Lu scolding in her mouth: "Short-lived dog, get away!" ”

Xiao Gray ran to the front yard, Xiao Geng also wanted to chase after him, where can Mrs. Lu rest assured, and the fart trot followed.

Yulan glanced at it and said lightly: "Fortunately, I broke up at the beginning, I really want her to take Xiao Geng, maybe she will be a bastard!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi felt the same way.

Xiao Ding watched the incense on the side, and when the time came, he quickly reminded that Yulan took out the scones with the lid and then made the second batch.

Now that the scones are selling fast, Lu Zhong drove home earlier than usual, parked the donkey cart, and then went to the cowshed to see the calf, for fear that the calf would starve, and mixed some corn flour and wheat bran to feed it.

Yulan smiled: "If you don't worry, you can also take it into the city when you sell cakes." ”

Lu Zhong smiled, "With you to take care of me, I am most relieved." ”

"Don't worry you're still like this?" Magnolia asked, pointing to the trough.

Lu Zhong was speechless, scratching his head and smirking.

Yulan said: "There is not much wheat in the warehouse, it costs a lot of wheat noodles to make scones after steaming steamed buns a year ago, you run around the city every day, and buy a few stones of wheat when the price is low." ”

Seeing Lu Zhong nodded, Yulan said again: "There have been a few heavy snowfalls in winter, this year's wheat will definitely be harvested more, we also have to keep some stored grain, in case of drought and flooding, we can't buy food with money." ”

Yulan will live, Lu Zhong respects and loves her, every time he listens to her, he listens very carefully, except for nodding or nodding, occasionally laughing and teasing her, causing her to scold a few times, and feel comfortable all over.

At this time, his daughter was present, and Lu Zhong couldn't tease her, so he had to nod.

In the blink of an eye, March is a good time for the grass to grow and the warbler to fly.

Gray gray cabbage, bitter bitter herbs, wild onions, wild garlic, wild leeks, toons, wild artemisia have emerged, after a few spring rains, look green, swaggering in the spring breeze, tempting the little girls in the village have baskets to dig. The closer you get to the water source, the more lush the weeds and wildflowers become. The little girls understand this truth, so the banks of Qixi have become a natural concentration place, gathering the tall and short fat and thin girls in the village.

Of course, spring is also the season of spring heart, where the girls appear, there must be a young man not far away, who is affectionate and courteous, confined to shyness and joyful heart, even if it is aimed at two eyes from afar, it is as sweet as honey.

Lu Xiaoyi is not interested in young girls of the same age, the people she is interested in are far away on the mountainside, and they will not appear among the teenagers in the same village, so compared to other little girls, she can look for wild vegetables without distraction.

Magpie and Chunhua are both older than Xiaoyi, and now they are also twelve-year-old girls, and they are particularly easy to blush when their spring hearts ripple, Lu Xiaoyi thinks it is funny and deliberately teases them, "Huh? Who's going to look this way? ”

The magpie threw the wild onion in his hand at her, and said with a red face: "He didn't look this way, what nonsense!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi hurriedly picked up the wild onion thrown by the magpie into his basket, and grinned: "I didn't say who it was, what are you anxious about?" ”

The magpie smashed a few more wild garlic plants, Lu Xiaoyi laughed, and suddenly thought that this was a labor-saving shortcut, so he deliberately teased the magpie frequently, and the magpie smashed to the end, found that the basket was empty, gritted his teeth angrily and shouted that he was fooled, and hid to the other side with the basket.

Lu Xiaoyi turned his target to Chunhua again, who wants Chunhua to be much smarter than magpies, no matter how ashamed he is, he will not smash the wild vegetables in his hand and harm Lu Xiaoyikong and others.

At this time, Xiao Ding led the calf over, and Xiao Geng followed behind with Xiao Gray Ash.

Lu Xiaoyi pointed to a tree stump and said, "Xiaoding, tie the cow rope there, you must tie it tightly, don't let the cow break free." ”

Xiao Ding nodded, tied the cow rope and ran over to help Xiao Yi dig wild vegetables.

Of course, in between digging wild vegetables, the girls also have to mix in other entertainment programs, such as picking wild flowers and helping each other with plugs, such as chasing butterflies, and whispering in their ears.

Shen Qiang suddenly jumped over and threw a stone into the stream behind the girls, and suddenly the water splashed, and the girls were hit one after another, scolding Shen Qiang while wiping the water droplets.

Shen Qiang crossed his waist and laughed.

Tsk, I learned poetry and etiquette in the school for three months, and I returned it to Mr. Private School, in addition to growing tall and strong, my nature is still such a begging look.

Lu Xiaoyi pursed his mouth and continued to bury his head in search of wild vegetables.

Thinking that Shen Qiang was less than ten years old, Chun Xin didn't move at all, so he could come over and provoke these little girls without any scruples, those older young men, who were shy, didn't dare to approach.

After such a fuss, a few older teenagers found an opportunity, and ran over to help the girls come out and chase Shen Qiang.

Where did Shen Qiang figure out the reason, he was inexplicably taken away by a few teenagers who were a few years older, while shouting: "Hey, what are you doing?" I didn't mess with you. He writhed and tried to break free.

provoked the girls to cover their mouths and laugh.

Soon, Shen Qiang was put back, and he ran over to provoke people again, and then he was taken away, and after a few times, Shen Qiang also saw the doorway clearly, and no longer used the props of others to offer hospitality, and obediently squatted beside Lu Xiaoyi to help her dig wild vegetables.

Lu Xiaoyi asked him, "Why don't you see Liu Bao?" Aren't you in a school? ”

Shen Qiang snorted: "The little stammering is crying at home, hum!" When he was bullied, he knew how to cry, and if I hadn't helped him out, he wouldn't have known how many beatings he would have received. ”

Lu Xiaoyi knows in his heart that defective children are inevitably ridiculed in their childhood, and children have no scruples among themselves, they blurt out if they want to laugh at you, and they come when they want to bully you, Liu Bao, a stammering peasant child, is bullied in the village, let alone in the city school, hey! I don't know how he got over these three months.

Lu Xiaoyi said: "You grew up together, you should help him even more." ”

"Those kids in the city are so bad, I have been beaten a lot to help him, do you see my arm, is it still green?" As he spoke, he began to roll up his sleeves, and there were indeed a few bruises on his elbows.

"Why don't you tell Mr. to go?"

"It's useless to sue, Mr. has been punished, they are even more energetic behind their backs, always looking for excuses to stir up trouble, Liu Bao endured it and kept silent, I couldn't help it, and then I fought again." Shen Qiang put down his sleeves and looked unconvinced, "They just rely on the large number of people, and if you want to say that you are not afraid of anyone who singles me out, hum!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi praised: "Shen Fatzi, you are good." ”

Shen Qiang laughed Huan, he was originally a spoiled tsundere boy, because of Lu Xiaoyi's broken leg, he was a lot more mentally normal, plus Lu Xiaoyi played with him regardless of his previous suspicions, and even risked his life to go into the water to save him, Shen Qiang slowly changed a lot.

Lu Xiaoyi's impression of Shen Qiang is also good, even if he pushed her into a deep ditch and broke her leg, Lu Xiaoyi was also an unintentional mistake of a child, and her leg was also raised, pretending to be lame was also forced to think of a crooked move temporarily due to the situation at the time.

Now that he learned that Liu Bao Shenqiang was bullied in the city school, Lu Xiaoyi offered advice: "There is always a leader in that group of children, right?" The next time they bully you and Liu Bao again, you will only beat the leader, no matter how others beat you, you will only drag the leader to beat, only if he is afraid, he will not dare to trouble you easily. ”

Shen Qiang's eyes lit up, "Yes, it should have been done a long time ago." ”

"I just suggested that they beat you up like this, and if you can avoid it, don't make trouble, but if you can't beat you, you can run."

Shen Qiang didn't say anything about running away in his heart, and said disapprovingly: "Hmph! I'm not afraid of them, if I hadn't protected Liu Bao, I wouldn't have been beaten. Besides, those soft eggs in the city are not my opponents at all, next time I will find a chance to beat Qin Jiabao's bastard to spit! ”

…… Spit? Don't be so violent, okay?

Lu Xiaoyi rolled his eyes and reminded Shen Qiang: "Stupid people do reckless things, I advise you to have a sense of proportion, if you really beat that Qin Baobao to spit, you can't escape it." ”

"It's Qin Jiabao." Shen Qiang corrected.

"That's not the point, I mean ......"

Shen Qiang interrupted in annoyance, "Okay, okay, I know, it's annoying, fighting is a man's business, and it has something to do with your little girl." ”

Lu Xiaoyi was speechless, hey! No matter how young you are, it's better to be two years older than you!

Whether Shen Qiang listened or not, Lu Xiaoyi didn't know, because Shen Qiang and Liu Bao hurriedly went to the city after taking a day off.

Lu Xiaoyi took the cow to the stream to graze every day, and then took Xiaoding to dig wild vegetables.
