"Why are you so hungry?" Wang Baoyu asked Huo Ya, this thin girl seems to have a bigger amount of food than herself.

"How do you know the suffering of the subordinates, you and Mr. and others, three meals a day, I wait for the subordinates to eat two meals a day, eat coarse rice all year round, no oil and water, and only have a full meal on the New Year's Day, and it is nothing more than a few more pieces of meat in the bowl." Huoya said with a bitter face.

Alas! Wang Baoyu sighed, and finally knew why Huoya was so able to eat, she couldn't eat enough all year round, and her body was so empty, no wonder she was so thin.

"I heard Mr. Zhuge say today that he is related to Liu Biao, what's going on?" Wang Baoyu inquired.

"Everyone here knows that Liu Biao's wife and Mrs. Zhuge are sisters." Huoya explained.

After doing it for a long time, it turned out that Huang Yueying's father Huang Chengyan was actually a brother-in-law with Liu Biao, which means that Zhuge Liang still has to call Liu Cousin's uncle, this relationship is indeed not far away.

"It is precisely because of this relationship that the Huang family has the family business in Longzhong, hundreds of acres of fertile land, rented to nearby farmers for farming, and they have no worries about food and clothing." Huoya continued.

Haha, Huang Yueying is a charter wife, and at the same time, Wang Baoyu also knows that in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, it is very rare to have this industry.

"Isn't Comrade Zhuge Liang very poor?"

"Comrade? What is the meaning? Huoya was stunned and didn't understand.

"That's what Mr. meant."

"Mr. Zhuge three brothers, since the death of both parents, lived with his uncle, and then came to Jingzhou, was favored by Mr. Huang at a glance, came to propose, Mr. readily agreed, I came here with Mr." Huo Ya also understands very clearly, speaking of this stubble, Huo Ya is still a little lucky, she feels that her life is good, and she followed Zhuge Liang to find a good family.

From this point of view, Zhuge Liang is equivalent to a modern inverted door, that is, a redundant person, no wonder he is afraid of his daughter-in-law. As for Zhuge Liang's younger brother, Wang Baoyu also remembered that his name should be Zhuge Jun, but he had never seen it.

"Where is my brother now?" Wang Baoyu asked.

"It's an idle person, I don't know where to meet friends, and I don't know when to return." Huoya was obviously very disdainful of Zhuge Jun.

Oh! Wang Baoyu answered, and then asked, "Huoya, how much silver taels did I borrow from you?" ”

"Three or two!" Huoya hesitated.

"I vaguely remember that it seems to be two or two, right?" Wang Baoyu flickered.

Huo Yaxiao's face turned red, and then she changed her words and said, "Xu I remembered it wrong, it's two taels." ”

"Phew! When I'm a fool, lie to me! You may not earn a tael in ten years, how can I borrow you so much silver. Wang Baoyu sank his face.

"If you don't pay it back, why do you hurt me?" The fire girl insisted.

"I've asked Madame, I don't usually have your money, it's good if you can have a few hundred baht, where is the silver!" Wang Baoyu was a little angry.

"It's because I saved money on weekdays and sold the discarded things in exchange, how can you regret it?" Huoya was a little anxious, and her voice was a lot louder.

Wang Baoyu stared at Huoya's eyes carefully, it didn't look like he was lying, maybe Wang Baoyu had really borrowed Huoya's money before, but there would definitely not be two taels!

"Then tell me, what did I borrow your money for?"

"Buy medicine to cure the disease, you said that you have cured the disease, and you will take me as a concubine in the future, so that I can eat three meals a day. That's why I gave you all my savings. Huoya blushed again and whispered.

Wang Baoyu smiled bitterly, the original owner of his body was really dark enough, shameless enough, and he fooled the fire girl in a few meals. Wang Baoyu thought for a while and said, "Huoya, don't worry, I will definitely return the money to you." ”

"That's fine." Huoya immediately smiled.

The next morning, Huang Yueying sewed the ten taels of silver into Wang Baoyu's clothes, and told and advised, Wang Baoyu and Huoya embarked on a journey to visit Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui, walked through the small bridge and bamboo forest, walked along the quiet path for an hour, and came to a spacious road.

"Damn, I'm tired, let's take a taxi!" Wang Baoyu was very tired from walking, and couldn't help but say casually.

Taxi? As soon as she heard this word, Huoya was confused again, and soon she understood what Wang Baoyu meant, and pulled the corner of Wang Baoyu's clothes and said, "You can go on foot, and you can buy food with the money you save." ”

"Madame gave me a hundred baht, I don't know if it's enough?" Wang Baoyu asked.

"Millet dumplings cost five baht, tea costs one baht per bowl, and meat costs ten baht." Huo Ya explained, Wang Baoyu was shocked, it turned out that the money here had been inflated to such a point.

"How much will it cost to hire a car to go north?" Wang Baoyu inquired again.

Huo Ya shook her head blankly and said, "I don't know about this. ”

Wang Baoyu was disappointed for a while, it seemed that Huoya still knew more about eating, looked at the continuous road ahead, and asked, "Walking, how long will it take us to arrive?" ”

"It's two days to get north from here." Huoya seemed to be speaking very easily, but Wang Baoyu suddenly had a bitter face, and it was really a painful journey to go for two days.

In modern times, if you drive by yourself, it will be an hour's drive at most, and from this point of view, the primary reason for the underdevelopment of the ancient economy is that the commercial circulation is not fast and convenient enough.

The ten taels of silver can't be moved, and the hundred coins are indeed stretched when spent, not to mention the fire girl with a large amount of food?

Wang Baoyu thought about it, but decided to adopt Huoya's Jianyì and walked on two legs to Shuijing Villa, eighty miles away.

The sky is clear, although it is still the end of spring, but the weather is already very hot, there are vehicles passing by on the road, touching the silver two in his arms, Wang Baoyu still decided to avoid opening the mouth, fortunately there is a small pavilion every five miles along the way, to be able to drink a baht of coarse tea, as well as rice balls and other food supplies.

Although the two of them saved food and drink, when it was getting late, they had already spent thirty baht, and Huo Ya was distressed and kept complaining that Wang Baoyu should not always drink tea.

Wang Baoyu was also irritable, waving his hand impatiently, sweating so much, he had to replenish water if he didn't eat, which was like a fire girl who was dry and thin, and walked without sweating.

As for when you come back, let's talk about it, I hope God willing, Mr. Shui Jing is a generous and kind person, and he can give himself a reward of silver or something.

Huoya is a coolie person, walking feels easier than working at home, and Wang Baoyu can bear this suffering, tired and dizzy, and can't wait to lie on the ground and sleep a lot.

However, the pedestrians on the road began to increase, it seemed to have arrived at a prosperous place, looking up, there was a wooden two-story building not far ahead, on a high flagpole in front of the door, the embroidered flag fluttered in the wind, and two big characters were written on it. ”
