Back at the door of the rented courtyard, Situ Yan took out food, meat and vegetables from the space ring while there was no one, and then knocked on the courtyard door, "Brother, I'm back!" Come and help, I'll get some black noodles and vegetables back! ”

As soon as Situ Yan finished speaking, she heard San Lang's voice from the courtyard, "Hey, it's here!" San Lang happened to be pouring water by the courtyard wall, and when he heard the sound, he hurriedly opened the door for Situ Yan.

Li Aniu, Li Si and Liangzi also heard the scream, and they all walked out of the house and helped San Lang carry in the noodle bags and vegetable baskets at the door.

"Xiao Wu, where did you get these bags of black noodles? Aren't all the grain shops sealed? Erlang only turned out of the backyard at this time, and when he saw the noodle bags carried by several people, his happy mouth was cracked to the back of his ears, he was most afraid of being hungry, and he saw that the food on the car was getting less and less, and he didn't smile for several days.

"I bought it from a restaurant, and the owner of the restaurant ran away without paying the salary, and the guys in the store withheld the shopkeeper's salary, and the shopkeeper didn't have a way, so he took out all the grain, vegetables, meat, and eggs and sold them, so that he could pay the guys. We didn't need anything else, so we just bought these grains with the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper had planned to buy all the grain at his own expense, but he also lost that the guys refused to let him go home to get the money, and he had no choice, so he thought about selling the grain, or he would get us in a round. ”

"That's also a great blessing for the girl, so I can meet it, otherwise how can we get these good things!" Several aunts also felt that this matter was in a hurry, but in their hearts, it was all Situ Yan's blessing that could meet a good thing.

Situ Yan has been lying these days, she didn't even type the draft, she came as soon as she opened her mouth, and she felt that the compilation was quite smooth, but she was praised like this, she was still a little weak-hearted, and it happened that Erlang answered, she hurriedly followed Ying He and brought the words over.

"That's really a coincidence, if I wasn't afraid that the officials would arrest Ding, I would have taken a turn or two around the market gate, maybe I could buy more grain?"

"Second brother, this good thing should be so easy to touch, then there is still a shortage of food in this city, I just inquired, there are only some big families in this city who still have some grain in stock, and many of the people are digging wild vegetables to live!" Situ Yan thinks that Li Erlang is a foodie, but such a person is simple-minded, but he is very easy to get along with.

"Hey! We are poor people who suffer from this, and we have to save some food to eat! When Aunt Niu heard that there was a shortage of food everywhere outside, she felt uncomfortable.

A few people chatted as they went into the stove room. Situ Yan saw that there were all the people in the stove room at this time, so she arranged the division of labor for three meals a day. The third aunt and Liangzi's daughter-in-law made black noodle vegetable paste soup for breakfast, Aunt Niu and the fourth aunt made pimple wild vegetable soup for lunch, and Situ Yan was in charge of the soup in the evening.

The pimple soup was easy to make, and after a while, everyone gathered in the main hall for lunch. Situ Yan told these people what she saw in the county office, "I'm afraid that the capital city of Luoyang has been surrounded by the Wu army at this time, and it seems that the death of the Wei State is just these days, for the sake of safety, let's not rush these days, stay in this county for a few more days, and it's not too late to set off when everything settles?" ”

The four brothers of the Li family glanced at Situ Yan worriedly, they knew that the eldest brother of the little sister might be in Luoyang City at this time, but the little sister wanted to stay here for their safety, and they were moved and worried about Wu Jin at the same time.

"Then if Wu Jun calls, I'm afraid that this county town will not be stable?" Ryoko thought about the news of the slaughter of the city by the Turkic soldiers, and was a little scared.

"It's okay, I've inquired, the Wu army is much stronger than the Turkic soldiers, not only does it not slaughter the city, but also distributes food to the people."

"That's a good feeling, okay, Xiao Wu, whether you go or stop, I listen to you." Li Aniu and Li Si glanced at each other, and the two of them were just as worried as Liangzi, and when they heard Situ Yan say this, they also had a bottom in their hearts. Since they decided to follow Situ Yan, they have never treated this girl as a child, and they trust her words very much.

"It's just that it's very chaotic outside, my uncle and brothers can't go out, even if someone comes to call the door, don't respond, let alone open the door to outsiders, if there is anything to buy and do, the aunts and I will go. When they had eaten, they bothered the aunts to pick up some firewood, which could not be cooked with firewood without food. ”

"What's this, I'll go with the Li Si family when I have dinner." Aunt Niu is a neat one, and when she heard Situ Yan's words, she nodded her head in response.

"Take me with you. Multiple people can also pick up more! The third aunt just swallowed the pimple soup in her mouth, and when she heard that Li Aniu's family only called Li Si's family, she was anxious, and their family couldn't just eat and drink, but not work. Liangzi's daughter-in-law also nodded, although Xiaobao is still young, but with Liangzi watching, she can also help with the work.

"The third aunt and sister-in-law don't worry, there is no well in the rented yard, I just saw that there is a well at the mouth of the alley, and several families here are drawing water from there, and then trouble the sister-in-law and the mountain baby brother and the dog brother to brush out the water tank in the stove room, and the third aunt and my third brother and the fourth brother will fill the water tank at home together. Let's take this yard as our home and live a good life. ”

"Okay." The third aunt and Liangzi's daughter-in-law saw that they were also in trouble, so they could eat with peace of mind.

The mountain baby and the dog nodded while drinking the pimple soup, they are also young, they can't go out to work at this time, and the work at home is almost done, and they are worried that they have nothing to do, and they are very happy to get this errand.

Compared with modern people, who always want to shirk or find others to help them do their own work, ancient people are more industrious and simple. Situ Yan even had a feeling that if she didn't find some work for these people, she was afraid that they would be idle.

In the afternoon, the women were busy, and the men were busy cleaning the house, but they had nothing to do, especially Li Aniu and Li Si, two big men, but they watched San Lang and Shilang, who had not yet become a child, carrying water one by one, while they could only hide in the yard and sit idle, unable to live in peace, and wanted to sneak out of the house several times to carry water together.

"Uncle Niu, Fourth Uncle, Xiao Wu said, if you go out and let the officers and soldiers arrest you, it will be too late to regret it, I and Shiro are in good health, don't worry about going on such two trips, you and Fourth Uncle just rest." San Lang persuaded Li Aniu and Li Si, who had already crossed the threshold, to go back, and then carried the bucket and Shiro to the alley.

In the evening, Situ Yan stewed soup with pork bones, boiled a pot of vegetables with bone broth, and pasted cakes, and when the food was served on the table, it was the mountain baby and the dog who were more happy than Erlang's voice, "Xiao Wu, why do I eat meat when you don't have meat in this soup?" ”

"Well, I eat it too."

"That's it! Everything my little five makes is delicious. Li Erlang ate a big mouthful of vegetable soup and took another bite of the cake, and his heart was beautiful.

"Girl, this doesn't farm, doesn't do farm work, and there is not much food at home, so let's just eat some mush!" A few aunts still thought that making cakes was a waste of food, but seeing that the children were eating happily, it was difficult to persuade them again, so they had to say that they would eat some thin food.

"Aunts, just eat with confidence, I think it won't be long before we can set off for Henan County." In fact, how do these people know that Situ Yan does not use the stored grain in the stove room when cooking, but the food in the ring, which is also one of the reasons why Situ Yan is willing to cook.

"Xiao Wu, Xiao Bao'er can eat some black noodles like us, just leave these bud noodles for you to eat!" Ryoko's daughter-in-law looked at the bud gnocchi soup in her son's bowl and was happy, but she couldn't help it. These people all know that Situ Yan can't eat black noodles, and she eats bud noodles all the way, but now for the sake of her son, she actually eats Xiao Wu's grain, how can she be strong in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, Xiao Bao'er is still young, if it weren't for the fact that there is nowhere to buy japonica rice and white noodles at this time, I would still want to buy some fine grains for Xiao Bao'er to eat!" Xiao Bao'er ate deliciously, and was happy at Situ Yan, and Situ Yan, who was watching, couldn't help but reach out and touch his head.

"Xiao Wu, Xiao Bao'er is right, this boy is really good, don't get used to him!"

"Our little Bao'er is not bad, and besides, how much can he eat for a little baby, there is still a lot of bud Gu face!" In the hard days of fleeing, even eating black noodles is very luxurious, let alone bud grain noodles. Xiao Wu is like this, he is really good to their little Bao'er, the two of them don't say it anymore, but their hearts are very warm. Even the third aunt was moved and hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.

Everyone else knows that Situ Yan is good to Xiao Bao'er, and she won't fight with a child for food, not to mention that even Li Dalang eats black noodles, how can they have other ideas.

After dinner, Situ Yan taught Li Dalang to read, and even Shanwazi, Gouzi, and Liangzi also followed along.

Li Aniu, Li Si and a few aunts sat in the courtyard and listened to the sound of reading in the main house, and their hearts were full of emotion, "I said that Da Lang talked a few times yesterday, and it turned out that he was reading and reading with the girl!" ”

"But no, I remember that San Lang used to be a stump, until Xiao Wu came to our village and lived with Da Lang, this stump was cured, and he was loud when he read a book."

"You mentioned this, I also remembered, it's true, we will follow the girl in the future, but blessed!"

"That's right, you don't know what the village thinks, but if you have a good life, you have to find the land yourself?"

"What can he think, isn't it that he can't let go of being a village official for a long time, and I'm afraid that Da Lang will occupy his land?"

"Isn't that a fool's errand? I look at Xiao Wu and I'm not that kind of person! ”

"You men, you just have a lot of eyes, I don't want anything else, so I followed the girl and Da Lang and them together." The fourth aunt came out of Lijia Village all the way, but she talked a lot more than before.

"Hey! If our grass is still there, and we can learn from the girl, I will burn high incense. ”

"The children are all here to collect debts, you, don't think about it anymore, that Li Cao doesn't think about your good, you are still sad for her, and you can't do it."

"Li'er is this Li'er, but I'm still uncomfortable in my heart. Besides, the grass is also the meat that fell from my body, how can I not feel distressed? "On days when you don't have to hurry, Aunt Niu will think of the plum grass that stole her money, think about her as a girl, and now I don't know what she has done, whether she can eat enough, and whether she has been bullied.

"You don't mention the black-hearted one in the future, if it weren't for your protection everywhere, she would have stolen the money and ran away, I knew that she was an unconscious person, I should have discounted her leg in the first place, at least not even the silver money for the mountain baby to marry a daughter-in-law!" Every time Li Aniu heard his daughter-in-law mention his daughter Li Cao, he felt angry in his heart, and it was even more heartbreaking to think of the money he gave to the mountain baby to marry his daughter-in-law.

"What's wrong with me, if you hadn't been ruthless in sending Cao'er to that big family as a maid, would your daughter be like this?" Aunt Niu has always thought that Li Cao's change is because of the relationship between her sending people away, and every time she thinks about it, her heart hurts, and the words of complaint rush away, and her voice is much higher.

Li Aniu also had a knot in his heart, and he was blocked by his daughter-in-law, and he felt uncomfortable, so he lowered his head and kept silent.

The fourth aunt saw that the two of them were awkward, and they were busy playing a round, "This is a hurry, why are you still making trouble, okay, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, maybe Li Cao got the money and found a good family to marry?" ”

After a few more small talks, they went back to the house. In fact, they didn't know that Li Cao really mixed into the county seat, found a big family to sell himself, and thought that he would no longer have to flee and would be able to live a good life from now on. But because she was illiterate, she was deceived by this family into signing a death deed.

When the Turkic soldiers attacked the city, the family fled overnight, thinking that she was cumbersome, and directly sold her to the cellar (inferior brothel), because she was a big girl with yellow flowers, she was exchanged for ten taels of silver. When Li Cao was tied into the cellar, her intestines were green, and she cried and cried for her father, but the heavens should not call the earth spiritual, she was destined to be bullied by men and died.
