Chapter 25: Kang
Chen Ping has also studied the words on the tombstone of the tombstone, and remembers that there is a word. Although Chen Ping graduated from engineering, he also has a preference for history, the traces of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the surname comes, and there is power, Chen Ping immediately remembered a person.
Come to protect the child.
Thinking like this, the memory in Chen Ping's mind revived a little. I once remembered that this Laihu'er was indeed from Jiangdu, but I didn't expect it to be from Baitu Village, and this coincidence was really too much of a coincidence.
"Then Huang County Gong called Hu'er?" There was a short blade on the dry grass, it was the little madman, and he actually forgot to take it, Chen Ping picked it up, but unfortunately the tip of the sword was missing, and he picked up the piece of silver by the way.
Different from the broken silver that Chen Ping saw before, this was a square silver ingot, and he weighed it twice in his hand, and Chen Ping gave it to Chen Yuanliang.
"That's right, it's him." In the end, the family is in business, Chen Yuanliang raised his palm, and estimated the weight of the silver ingot, "There are five taels." ”
Five taels of silver, plus those wild goods, the compensation is only a lot more.
Chen Ping took the short sword and took it down on the ox cart casually, and the hard willow wood immediately flew out, and the broken part was very smooth to the touch.
"This sword must be good, you still earned it." Chen Yuanliang handed the silver ingot to Chen Ping, "But don't sell it." ”
"Yes." Chen Ping said vaguely, he understood Chen Yuanliang's words, in case that little madman would come back to him to ask for a sword, but whether he wanted to return it or not was Chen Ping's business.
Xue Fucai's ox cart couldn't sit down, so Chen Ping picked up a lot of broken silver that the guards on the ground had left, and then gave Xue Fucai the five taels of silver ingots in his hand.
"This ...... There is no need for so much, and the game on the ground is almost enough to add two taels of silver. Xue Fucai was holding the silver money, a little at a loss, which added up to about eight taels of silver, which was not a small amount.
"Brother Fucai, you're wrong." Chen Ping shook his head and pressed Xue Fucai's hand, "You will suffer losses this time because of the two of us, this porcelain delivery time is late, you will definitely be scolded, and the guards just now, you must also be frightened, these expenses must be counted." ”
"What's the cost, I'm fine." Xue Fucai said.
"If I say yes, then I must be." Chen Ping couldn't refuse, "This is a mental loss fee, Brother Fucai just has to take it." ”
Xue Fucai was holding the silver money in his hand, and the huge man, listening to Chen Ping's words, actually wanted to shed tears.
He had never heard of mental damage, and he had never heard of losing money if he was frightened, and he only thought that this must be Chen Ping's excuse to make him accept the money, and then he was ashamed and annoyed when he thought of his performance just now.
I was ashamed that I was afraid of those guards and didn't help Chen Ping, and I was annoyed that I hated myself for being too useless and not like a man.
"In the future, if there is a shortage of porcelain at home, look for me." Xue Fucai said.
Chen Ping chuckled and said, "Can't you find Brother Fucai if there are other things?" ”
"Yes, just go to Shangtu Village to find me." Xue Fucai said.
The ox cart can't go, Chen Ping is not in a hurry to go to the county seat, and Chen Yuanliang has an injury on his foot, it seems that he doesn't hurt his bones, but it's better not to move, and this road is even more impossible.
The three of them cleaned up the broken porcelain, tied the wild goods together, and waited to see if there were any passing ox carts that could catch a ride to the county.
"There were a lot of people just now, but now no one can see it." After a while, there were people walking on the road, but there was not a single ox cart to be seen, and Chen Ping was speechless.
The three of them waited for more than a quarter of an hour, and seeing that the sun was about to set if this continued, Xue Fucai took the initiative to say that he wanted to go back to the village to borrow two ox carts.
Shangtu Village is richer than Baitu Village, and there must be two ox carts, about half an hour later, Xue Fucai drove an ox cart, followed by one, and he was from the same village.
There was not only one person who came, there were two other people on the ox cart, Xue Fucai took Chen Ping and Chen Yuanliang to the county seat first, and the ox cart that stayed was loaded with the dead ox.
Cattle cannot be slaughtered at will, and the cattle that died by accident have to go back to the village to find the chief, and then go through the appropriate procedures before they can be sold to the county butcher shop.
When the three of them arrived at the county seat, the sun was westward, Xue Fucai said goodbye, and the ox cart was coming, and he hurriedly drove to the north of the county seat, which was the direction of the county government.
Helping Chen Yuanliang to go to Doctor Hu's medical hall first, he talked to the little old man with a handful of goatees, and then spent a lot of medicine, prescribed some Chinese medicine, and took a few plasters, and the two of them returned.
When he got home, he was worried and concerned, Chen Yuanliang only said that the ox cart was frightened on the road, overturned, and accidentally pressed his foot, and other things were hidden.
"Chen Ping will sleep with me tonight, and you don't have to clean up the room after Chen's mother." After dinner, Chen Yuanliang saw that Chen's mother was going to clean the room, so he called down.
Then Chen Yuanliang and Chen Ping entered the west room.
In the hall, Yang Shihu asked suspiciously: "What happened to Yuan Liang today?" How can you sleep with Chen Ping? ”
"Isn't that good? It's rare for two cousins to be so friendly. Chen Xiaozhong packed the package, the package was filled with a fire sickle, and the fire sickle that Chen Ping made was sold for a good price, and he also knew it.
The silk silk, wooden box, and ribbon have already been prepared, and even the fire fold, Chen Xiaozhong also took the paper in his son's room and rolled it himself.
"It's good, but Yuan Liang hasn't slept with anyone since he was six years old, including my mother and your grandfather." Yang shook his head, he couldn't figure it out, he could only attribute it to the fact that the two cousins had a good relationship, and this thought made Yang's heart sour.
Entering the room, Chen Ping first helped Chen Yuanliang put on the plaster, and then watched Chen Yuanliang take the black and smelly decoction, and then sat down and rubbed the short blade in his hand.
"This medicine is so bitter." Chen Yuanliang was half-lying on the couch, gritting his teeth and drinking all the medicine in the bowl, "Don't look at that short sword, you can't say that you will get it back to its original owner in a few days." ”
"Then we'll have to wait until then." The temperature in the house is still a little low, and there is no kang in the south, but at this time the coal is already in use, but the coal is not safe, Chen Ping said, "Brother Yuanliang, do you know a mason?" ”
"Yes, there is a registration in the county, how?" Chen Yuanliang asked, "Is it to repair the house?" ”
"No, just make a kang." Although the bed board is more air circulating than the kang, but the day is getting colder and colder, it is much more realistic to make a kang for heating, and it is not very difficult, Chen Ping is also familiar with it, "It's cold, you have to keep warm." ”
Chen Ping didn't know if there was such a saying as kang in the north at this time, so he just waited to save some more money and repaired it first.
However, Chen Yuanliang was curious, and he hadn't heard of it, so he asked. After Chen Ping graduated in later generations, he worked in a northern project, remote areas, and the existence of Kang, which is very familiar, and Chen Yuanliang talked about it together.
"It's a good thing, it's really that warm, better than this futon." Chen Yuanliang was interested, "When the injury on my leg is better, I'll find a mason to come over and make one." ”
