"Yes." The two walked along the alley, to the county and city, Liuhe County is not big, Chen Ping has been here dozens of times, is already very familiar with here, knows which alley has a store selling live poultry, "I want to open a restaurant in this county, and when it opens, I hope that the county lieutenant Li can go." ”

"You have the ability to do business, there is a shop in the alley outside the county government that is Xue Xiong's." With a way to cure his wife's illness, Li Yingxing's heart was a little wider, and the settlement that had been circulating in his heart was unraveled, "I will help you take it from Xue Xiong." ”

"Then thank you County Lieutenant Li in advance." Chen Pingdao, "I don't know Yan County Chengna? ”

"I'll tell." Yan Xiancheng and Chen Ping have no intersection, in the end they are also an official, Chen Ping seems inappropriate to go, Li Yingxing said, "Didn't I tell you, just call me Uncle Li, don't look like that." ”

When they arrived at the ground, the chickens and ducks were covered in bamboo cages, and one was chosen each, and then Chen Ping took Li Yingxing to buy cow juice.

"The cow juice has to be warm, you can't put it, it's good to take it fresh." Li Yingxing was very familiar with this winding lane, but he didn't know much about the goods sold in the store, so Chen Ping gave the things to Li Yingxing.

Li Yingxing carried the chicken and duck and left with the cow juice, but Chen Ping turned in the direction of the county office.

The county government is in the north of the county seat, and there is a shop diagonally opposite the door, and the signboard says Fulai Restaurant, two floors. Looking at the inner hall through the door of the store, it is larger than the restaurant in Li Dezhi's house, and there are some people eating and drinking in it at the moment.

It seems that the business is not bad.

"The location is good." Chen Ping didn't go in, he walked around, and at this glance, he really fell in love with this store.

May that cow juice work.

After returning to the uncle's house, the father and son stayed overnight, and returned to the village with Chen Xiaozhong and Chen Yuanliang in the early morning of the second day.

Worshipping ancestors, they didn't even have time to eat, Chen Xiaozhong and his son hurried back to the county, Chen Xiaozhong had business to move around, and Chen Yuanliang was going to the county government colleague's house to pay New Year's greetings.

After this year, Chen Yuanliang was the official of Cao Xia in the county government, and he was in charge of the account affairs, which was also because Chen Ping said that the law of account was valued by the county order, the county order and others, and Chen Yuanliang got this opportunity.

It was two days later, the wind rose, the temperature dropped for a while, and a thick layer of ice formed on the water. At noon, Chen Ping picked up a stone outside the door of Chen Ya's house and threw it on the ice.

"Xiaoya, how about we fish?" At the broken ice mouth, Chen Ping saw a blue-gray fish mouth, stirring, Chen Ping turned back to Chen Ya and said.

Ice fishing, Chen Ping has not tried it yet.

Asked Chen Hecai for a fishing hook, tied a silk thread, the earthworm could not be found, pinched some dough, brought a small chair from Chen Ya's house, Chen Ping slowly put down the hook.

Before he put down the fish hook, Chen Ping felt a sinking in his hand, the bamboo pole was bent, and Chen Ping hurriedly lifted it.

A big silver carp made a splash, bit the hook, and was carried ashore by Chen Ping.

"Xiaoya, you can give it a try too." It was simply too easy, the silver carp bounced, and Chen Ping fiddled with it and shook it off a little.

Chen Ya took the bamboo pole, followed Chen Ping's example, kneaded a small dough on the fish hook, which was rounder than Chen Ping's, and then put down the ice mouth.

"Lift, don't let the hook fall too deep and just shake around the fish's mouth." Chen Ping reminded and gave the Xiaohu chair to Chen Ya, "Come, sit down." ”

Chen Ya moved two steps, holding the hem of her skirt in one hand before she was about to sit down, but the bamboo pole in her other hand suddenly shook, pulling Chen Ya to stumble and pour into the ice.

"Be careful." Chen Ping grabbed Chen Ya's arm from behind, pulled back, hugged her waist, and pressed her face to face.

Incense, so close, the faint fragrance lingers on the nose, which makes people feel refreshed, Chen Ping enjoyed it for a while and didn't want to let go.

"Brother, my uncle is here, and my mother asked me to come out to find you." At this moment, Chen An ran over from behind and crashed headlong, breaking the atmosphere, "What are you two doing?" Playing kissing? ”

Poking his head out, Chen An came closer, full of curiosity and wanted to look more closely.

"Kids, don't worry about that. Why is my uncle here? You're not going to lie to me, are you? Chen Ping let go of Chen Ya and looked at Chen An suspiciously.

A few years in the future, I didn't see it a few days ago, and this changed day happened to come.

"I didn't lie to you, my uncle also brought money, saying that he wanted to buy you a store." Chen An said, "There are ten taels of silver, and I eavesdropped on his conversation with his mother." ”

This is really strange, Chen Ping did not get the silver money from his grandfather's house when he was in Shangwan Village, and after the first day, Liu Yuqing would actually bring the silver money. Could it be that this festival happened to meet my grandfather's rich man?

Or is his grandfather greedy for a cup and drunk, and Liu Yuqing stole the silver money and brought it?

"Xiaoya, let's come fishing another day, it's cold, you go into the courtyard." Not worried that Chen Ya was fishing here alone, Chen Ping picked up the small beard chair and looked at the place where he had just thrown the silver carp, "What about the fish?" How is it gone. ”

As he was searching, he saw a black shadow coming out of the place at the foot of the courtyard, and the silver carp that had just been caught in his mouth entered the courtyard.

"It's hard to guard against thieves." Such a big silver carp can be made into a fish hot pot, how much enjoyment it should be in this winter, Chen Ping regretted, "Xiaoya, hurry up, maybe you can take some back from Xiaohei's mouth." ”

"No, you can't eat it if you take it back." Chen Ya shook her head, her little face was serious, "Xiao Hei has bitten it, it's dirty." ”

"Well, if you don't eat, you won't eat, and we'll fish again another day." Glancing at the nervous and serious Chen Ya, Chen Ping replied.

Chen Ya entered the courtyard, and Chen Ping looked back and saw that Chen An was by the river, holding a withered willow branch and poking it into the mouth of the ice.

"Who told you to play in the water?" Chen Ping scolded, "If you fall, how can you get up?" ”

"That's a lot of fish, brother." The willow branch was thin and small, and after poking it for a while, it didn't stop the fish, but instead stirred up some splashes and landed on Chen An's face, "You go back, I'll catch the fish here." ”

"Come back another day, and go back with me now." Chen Ping pulled Chen An and walked back.

Chen An struggled twice, and his feet were off the ground, but Chen Ping still didn't stop, and the wicker in his hand was thrown towards the ice mouth.

"I want to talk to my mother." Lying upside down, the collar of the cotton robe was grabbed by Chen Ping, and Chen An shouted, "You just kissed Sister Xiaoya." ”

"If you don't kiss, even if you kiss, so what?" Chen Pingdao.

"Will get pregnant." Chen An affirmed with a face, "There are already three in the family, and if there is one more, wouldn't it be harder for my grandmother?" ”

"Who told you that if you kissed you, you would get pregnant?" Chen Ping said strangely.

"You said it."

"Really? How come I don't remember? ”

Could it be that when he was telling a story, he warned Chen An in passing?

When he returned home, Chen Ping saw Liu Yuqing sitting in the hall, his face was a little embarrassed, staring at a few pieces of broken silver on the ground of the hall.

On the side, Chen Xiaoyi and Liu were facing each other, Liu was holding a small cloth bag in his hand, as if he wanted to pick up the silver money on the ground, but Chen Xiaoyi was in the way and did not give way.
